A warning to Townsite Boomers.

NEW WESTMINSTER, B. c., June 3d.
Especial. There is great trouble and
worry among large circle of spectators
in New Westminster. When Nelson Ben
net bought the New Westminster Southern
railway, it was understood that Liverpool
was to be the terminus and that passen-
gers would be brought from there to the
city by ferry. 1t was expected that this
would result in new town being built on
the south side of the river, and some heavy
land speculations were entered into on the
strength of the arrangement. Several hun
dred acres of landiwere surveyed into town
lots and placed on the market about the
time the Great Northern acquired the road,
but the latter company would not prom
Use to make Liverpool the terminus and
the intended boom could not be started.
1t was hoped, however, that the movement
would soon commence as there seems to be
no other spot so likely as Liverpool for the
terminus. Hopes in this direction were
entirely crushed few days ago when it
leaked out that the Great Northern is Sc
curing the right-of-way to South Westmin-
ster, two miles lower than Liverpool, and
directly opposite the center of this city.
This will greatly damage Liverpool if car
ried out, and many of the spectators are
deeply lamenting the change OF terminus.

The roll of disasters peculiar TO the summer
season is this year heightened in an extraor-
binary manner. There have been about as
many persons drowned as usual in the surf anu
in boating accidents; ill-made ice-cream mas
played it's poisonous part efficiently; excursion
trains and boats and barges have yielded Oneii
full quota of victims, and the customary 'o''
