Up te times within the memory of living men almost no one of means trayeled through Europe without a courier Before railroads were built and before good guidebooks were print ed he was almost indispensable His tribe survives, but ill greatly dimin= ished numbers. To the self reliant tray eler he is of no use whatever. Indeed he is frequently Il positive ineumbIanee, and worse. To my mind one of the great pleasures of travel is in learning to travel by myself There are satisfao- tion, pleasure and education in plan ming routes, deeipheriDg time tables, making bargains learning by observa- tion the lay of the land.
 The time may have been when a courier could save q traveller more than his cost. Most certainly that is uot the case now. On the contrary, as he gets a percentage eI= every purchase his party makes, which, of course, comes out of the purchaser in increased price, and as it is often for his interest to advise the more costly route, the more costly hotel or tha morn costly excursion, he eata up much more than his wages, while saving positively nothing Bean declares that in d two weeks trip in southern Spain, which he made side by side with a couple having courier, he invariably reached the hotel first, got better rooms and saw all the sights to IS qood advantage, yet the courier was. of his kind, an expert The fact is that travel has become so general, tourist eompan: IS, railroads and landlords have so well studied its needs, heolls are SO plentiful. that yon couldn't very well get off the track or have mishap if you triea. -EIerbert Luce ill "Going A broad ''

LEGISLATURE WAS PRoRoeueo.
Brilliant Scenes at Victoria Not
without q Sem a afOn.

Victoria, B. c.. May lO.-The legislature
was pT0rogusd Saturday. with the usual
elaborate ceremonies. the lieutenant gov
ernor in cooked nat anu Windsor uni
form coming to the house surrounded by
a brilliant STAN OF naval and military Of
hcCrs- The firth regiment OF Canadian
artillery formed a guard OF honor and
the band played God Save the Queen"
as the governor entered the house. 1t
rained dismally. but there was fair at
tendance OF visitors.
For the second time since the confedera-
ton the formal reading OF bills assisted
to create a great sensation. After as
senting to 70 bills passed. the clerk Of
the house said the lieutenant governor
reserved his assent to bill No. 10. until
the pleasure OF the governor general Of
Canada was known on the subject. This
means that the bill passed this year by
the legislature declaring that Chinese and
japanese are prohibited from employ
ment on works carried on under fran
chises granted by private acts must be
referred to the dominion to say whether
it Is constitutional or not. The only 9th
sr time since confederation when this
has been done was in ISL, when the then
lieutenant governor, Richards. reserved
his assent TO a bill giving gold commits
stoners judicial powers. The dominion
upheld this as infringing on the domin-
ion powers to appoint judges.
This Is the last time the legislature
meets in the old legislative buildings.
and in memory Of the occasion the VEN
cradle DR.. ]. s. Helmcksr. who was the
first speaker OF the old Vancouver col
ony after IL passed out OF the sway of
the Hudson's Bay Company. some 10
years ago. had a place at the right OF
the speaker. At the next session fine new
buildings will be ready for the legisla-
ture

Boise. Idaho, May 1z-- 1t Is more than
likely that the Kensler-Freel murder case

tired. The indictment is believed to be
fatally defective in that it does not state
the county or state in which the crime
was committed. The defense has moved
for stay of judgment In each case. has
ing the contention on that fact. Alfred
Freel and Mrs. kensler were indicted
for the murder of John Kensler. a farm

Of murder in the first degree and was
to have been sentenced to hang in \ few
days Mrs. Kensler. wife of the mur-
dered man. got a second degree verdict
and preparations have already been made

tiary, where there Is no female inmate.
