VICTORIA IGNORED.
The WaYrimoo Discriuinates in
Favor of Vancouver.

VICTORIA, B. c., Sept. GA spe-
cial meeting of the board of trade
to consider the action of the Aus
tralian steamship Warrimoo in
leaving for Vancouver without dis
charging her Victoria and Sound
cargo was held today. The board
strongly condemns the steamer
action, both in speeches and by
resolution. A deputation Of the
board waited on the collector of
customs and stated the case. The
collector said the company was a
common carrier, and as such oblig-
ed to use punctuality, which, ap-
parently, had not been done. Not
only this, but the Warrimoo's Off
GERS had sent into the customs
Office a sworn false statement for
which he declared he would call
them to account.
1t is understood that, as a result
of the failure of the Warrimoo to
land her Victoria freight from
Honolulu, an action will be COM
menced for damages. The con-
signees of a considerable portion of
the fruit cargo, which was to have
come to Victoria but was carried to
Vancouver, will refuse to take the
delivery and will demand substan-
tial damages for loss and incon-
venience. The action will result
in a libel being filed against the
ship, so that bonds will have to be
given before she can sail for the
southern seas.

A Man of Refined Tastes.

A rather pointed story is told of
Senator Blackburn, of Kentucky,
and the late Senator Beck, which
we give without varnish.
Upon one occasion it was neces-
sary to test some old bourbon whis-
ky before shipping the Simon Pure
to fastidious customer. The anx-
ious dealer bethought him Of these
two great men, who were univer-
sally admitted to be connoisseurs
in the article, and begged their in
diligence in the matter of tasting
the liquor. Blackburn swallowed
a sip, smacked his lips, looked a
little bit critical, tried it again, and
then said: at is fair-very fair
but" again smacking his lips, sit
seems to me 1 taste iron in it"
The dealer looked discouraged.
Beck went through the same
process of tasting and trying, at
last exclaiming: That's good
very good-but L think l detect a
taste of leather"
The dealers face fell. But feel
ing sure he had a superior article
he investigated. After diligent
search he found carpet-tack with
a leather cap in the bottom Of the
cask.-Harper's Magazine.

In many parts of England a
custom has for many centuries ex-
listed of eating pancakes on Shrove
Tuesday, the day before the COM

is believed to have originated in
the Greek church, the adherents of

diet during Lent.

BOARD OF HEALTH.
Special Meeting Held Yesterday
10 Consider Measles.

The board Of health held a spec
ial meeting yesterday morning at
half-past 9 o'clock. The meeting
was called to consider the outbreak
of measles following the arrival Of
the steamer Mariposa on last We'd
nesday.
There were present President ".
o. Smith. DR.. Andrews, John Ena,
Theo. F. Lansing, members, c. B.
Reynolds, executive officer, and
Drs. Cooper and Howard, govern
ment physicians.
The board ordered that the case
Of measles at Sans Souci be iso-
lated.
The board discussed the question
of danger arising from the intro
duction of measles, and President
Smith said he wished to have the
meeting brought fully before the
board so that that body could
not be accused Of negligence. 1t
was agreed that hereafter when a
steamer arrived with measles aboard
those through passengers afflicted
should be isolated during the stay
of the steamer in port, and passen-
gers for Honolulu should be isolated
at their own homes.
The subject was laid over for
further discussion till the next reg
ular meeting of the board, to be
held next Wednesday afternoon.

The ball and reception to be
given the L. S. S. Boston next
Monday evening is an expression
of the high estimation and esteem
in which the people of this country
hold American seamen. 1t would
be useless to deny the reception
carries a political significance with
it. It will be an informal express
sion of public sentiment regarding
annexation and the fact that To-
cal politics have not been allowed
to cut a figure in the affair shows
that those back Of the movement
have as much regard for the feel
ings of royalists as they have deter
mination to express themselves
upon and carry out the principles
underlying the cause of annexa-
ton.

rOTES AND COMM ENTS.

The prompt action taken by the
board of health yesterday in the
matter of the case of measles at
Sans Souci is to be commended.
Since the present board came into
Office it has shown a desire at all
times to do its duty to the public
regardless of past presidents and
has succeeded in making an envia-
BILE record. On the leper question
it has put itself on record and the
painstaking arrangement of bust
ness details made by it since the
Provisional government placed it
in control of sanitary matters
shows that its members are fully
awake to the needs and demands of
the hour. President Smith has been
especially active in the discharge
of his duties, and when it is taken
into consideration that through the
force of circumstances he has sew
eral other official functions to per-
form, he should be thanked for
the energy and care he has de-
voted to this department. The
various attacks which have been
made upon the board of health
lately are certainly unmerited and
unjust. To the unprejudiced they
look like the over overslopping of
political campaign which the
facts do not warrant and journal
istic honesty should have never
sanctioned. The slur thrown at the
board of health yesterday that it
had displayed ideas of definite
policy without formulating them
vas quite uncalled for and was
doubtless the result of royalist bile
such as the Bulletin is noted for.
There are certain politicians
connected with the ex-queen's
cause who Of late have been greatly
exercised as to the chances of a
row in the annexation ranks. For
bear, dear Canadians, there is no
fear of Americans ever falling out
sufficiently to give any permanent
encouragement to anti-Americans.
No matter what the outcome of the
present issue is, the annexationists
will stand together whenever it
comes to choice between Ameri
cans and the gentlemen who are
endeavoring to get political revenge
for their past failures by attempt
ing to foster dissention in the ranks
of annexationists. Americans may
not always agree in the minor de-
tails of local politics, but, pending
the settlement of the annexation
question, they are united in the
principle that no Canadians need
apply.

ver questions are put to him. He finds
that the tenant farmers in the states
visited, who have to pay from $500 to
800 a year rental, are becoming dis
cournged, especially when thu realize
that the same amount OF money will al
most buy them O farm in this country.
The young are also getting interested
and propose to strike out for themselves
in the the spring. Mr.. Parry expects to
see the largest immigration this season
in the history OF Dakota since 1882.
Upto the 4th inst. the commissioners
who are negotiating for the opening OF
the Yankton Indain reservation South
Dakota had secured 100 of the 1852 sig
natures necessary to secure the consento OF
a majority OF heads OF families. There
are 725 Indians all told on the reserva-
ton, and it is almost certain that the re-
mainder OF names required will be forth
coming. The land is some of the best in
the state and will be added to Douglas
and Charles Mix counties. With this
opening there is a strong probability that
the Yankton land district will be con
solidated with the Mitchell district as,
with the almost sure extension of the
Omit. a line from Mitchell to Wheeler,
the newly opened land will be nearer
Mitchell than Yankton, which is also true
OF what government business there re
mains in Hutchinson, Bon Homme and
Turner counties, now in the Yankton dis
trict.

The Black Hills of South Dakota.

The Black Hills of South Dakota.
One OF the most remarkable exhibits at
at the Worlds Fair will be the mineral
display from the Blacks Hills. Those
familiar with the resources ofthis region
know that it possesses a larger variety
and richer quantity OF mineral wealth
than any other part OF the earth similar
in size. Comparatively few people know,
but it is a fact nevertheless, that the
greatest gold mine in the world is locat-
ed at Deadwood, or that the only nickel
found on the American continents there.
or that gold and silver and iron and coal
and copper and aluminium and tin and a
great variety OF other minerals may be
here developed in endless amount, and to
spread this knowledge before the people
Of the earth and bring the whole to O
realizing sense OF the enormous riches re-
posing beneath the rugged spurs OF the
hills, the people of that country are ar
ranging o. most impressive and remark
able exhibit.
Prob.b!. the most interesting single
display on ire entire grounds will be the
great block o: gold shown by the Home
stake Mining Company. This will take
the form OF three months output of their
mine. Their immense stamps grind
monthly about $25O.OOO worth OF gold.
For three months, therefore, the yield
would reach fully 100000. This
amount will make a cube containing two
cubic feet, and this solid block OF the most
precious metal highly polished and suit
ably mounted will make an impression
unequaled by any other thing and re-
minding the spectator of the tales of
oriental wealth. The Harvey Peak Tin
Mining Company will make an exhibit.
Besides these individual exhibits there
will be In elaborate display OF the other
mineral resources OF the hills. The people
are exceedingly interested in the matter
and are determined that the world shall
know what they know-that they live in
the greatest wealth producing section of
the country. The vast stock interests
will be shown in good shape.
Then there will be an exhibit of the
wonders Of the Wind Cave, the largest
and most intricate cavern ever discover
ed. Altogether the black Hills will re-
ceive this year an advertising greater
than it has ever enjoyed and the resulting
boom is beyond a chance OF missing.

pretended he was asleep, and as soon
as a snake ventured near to charm
the stuffed bird the pig would grab
