Every business man OF common

away he gets in the evening from his
commercial associations during the
day. so that his business associates or

Now. what does he get in the city In
the evening even II he lives a carefully
regulated life? There Is no mode OF
life he can possibly follow which Is In
any way recuperative to his mental or

of hearing of the noises of the city or
ont of the range of Its lights. Every
night he has slept in the polluted air
of the city. and in the morning has
looked out on the gray sidewalks which
he sees all day long. What does such
a man know of the eNhilarating, re-
freshing and blood-quickening expert
ence of opening the shutters OF his
chamber window upon landscape OF

worse. what do his wife and children
know Of such Il blessing! Yet he de-

government has been overwhelmingly de-
feated as a result of recent election for
members of the provincial parliament.
The legislature is composed of 80 mem
bers and at. midnight returns have been
received from 80 constituencies, indicating
the election of 2S opposition and only
seven straight supporters of the govern
ment. 80 three seats which are still in
doubt will probably return opposition mem
bers. Premier Martin does not acknowl-
edge an absolute defeat, but claims his
abllIty to induce half dozen members
elect counted among the opposition to sup
port his government upon vote of want
OF confidence in the house.
The straight conservatives will have the
strongest individual following, having
elected l3 members. Martin, the premier
is elected in Vancouver, as is also Smith

men who were concealed. and at that
whom he designated.
AS the clock struck 8, the two thieves
approached from different directions,
and met at the corner.
One of them carried satchel, which
was apparently very heavy, judging by
the way in which he carried it.
AS they stood a minute, talking,
drunken man came rolling down the
street, and in endeavoring to pass them,
gave a lurch, and struck heavily
against the man carrying the satchel,
almost knocking him down, and caus-
ing him to drop it.
'Whasser mean, sir, by (hic) cet'n in
a gentPm'ns way? Yer drunk, sir
(hic)."
You fool, you're drunk yourself! Go
on about your businessr'
So saying, the thief stopped to pick
up his satchel, when violent push
from behind threw him fiat upon the
pavement.
At the same instant a shrill whistle
rang out upon the night air, and before
the two thieves fully realized what had
happened they were securely hand
cuffed and on their way to the station.
Behind them walked Bob, carrying
the satchel, and entirely recovered
from the effects of the liquor from,
which he was apparently suffering only
a moment before.
The next morning Bob appeared at
the inspectors office, carrying a.
satchel.
The inspector looked up from his
desk, at which he was writing, and
said:
"Well, Westbrook, what have you,
captured? Something worth the trou-
bic, l hope?"
Il don't know that it's much of g.
capture, SIR" said Bob.
"Well, what was it?"
"Only the robbers of Fairchild's Jew
elry."
The inspector grasped him by the
hand and shook it warmly.
my dear fellow, permit me to con-
graduate you! You have discovered
what has puzzled some of the best men,
in the force. How did you do it?'
Bob then related his experience with,
the letter and his subsequent adven-
lures.
When he had finished his story the In
spector said:
"Westbrook, from this hour you are
detective, attached to the regular force.
l think the thieves will have cause to
rue the day"
The inspector was right. Many
criminal has Bob since brought to JUS
tice, and often have the criminal class
es had cause to rue the day when he
was made detective.-Spare Moments.

GENTLEMAnLY WARRIORS.
Savages Supplied Their Enemies with
Food and Ammunition.

oaVa&eS supplied JheIr Enemies with.
Food and Ammunition.
We are accustomed to speak of the
humane and chivalrous manner in
which modern fighting is carried on.
and to congratulate ourselves upon the
advance which has been made in this
respect, says the London Mail.
But is this advance as great and as
real as we imagine? For example, how
do our present-day customs of war COM
pare with the old-time fighting methods
of the Maoris, the natives of New Yea
land? 1t will surprise a good many
people to hear that when a band of
Maori warriors was going to fight the
warriors of another tribe 1t was not
unusual for the numbers 1t was pro-
posed to place in the field to be COM
municated to the enemy; moreover. one
side often provided the other with arms
and provisions, so that the enemy
might not be placed at too great dis
advantage.
Here are a few stories which illus
trate the generosity which the Maoris.
of former days displayed toward their
enemies. A chief was asked why when
on a certain occasion he had command
of the road, he did not attack the am
munition and provision trains of the
English. The Maori, utterly astonished
at such a question, exclaimed: "Why.
you fool, if we had stolen their powder
and food. how could they have foughtY'
Another chief. who considered that
he bad been insulted by the chief of a.
neighboring tribe, said that the other
chief, had he not been much the strong
er of the two in arms and ammunition,
would not have dared to act in so in
sulting a manner. This speech came
to the ears of the neighboring chief,
who thereupon divided his arms and
ammunition into two equal parts, and
sent one-half, along with an invitation,
to fight, to chief No. l.
On another occasion n chief who was
fighting against us, and who was sho {
of guns and powder, sent this messalS
to the governor: MY custom with RI
gard to my enemy is. if he have not y
weapon l give him one. that we MAY
fight on equal terms. Now, o govern
or, are you not ashamed of my defense
less hands?" A clergyman who lived
long time in New Zealand relates how
in one of the intertribal wars the be-,
sieged sent word to the enemy thai
they were short of provisions. and the
besiegers at once handed over SUNNY
of food.

The exceptions to the general down.

ed by leading farm products, notably
cereals, but here this moving cause is
hardly favorable, being the result of
less favorable crop reports, particular
ly from the northwest, and it is to be
noted that advices from the central
west, where the winter wheat yield
promises to be very short, are less fav-
orable. The northwesterns had some
rains, but it is claimed not enough to
render the southern free from danger
Corn crop conditions remain favorable,
as likewise do those of oats, but the
grains and hog products have sympa-

speculative attention. Foreign crop
advices, it might be added, are not fiat

regarding French wheat, and English

Southern iron mills are shading quo

Surplus visible wheat supple are de-
creased. The decrease in American
stocks as reported to Bradstreet's in
May was 13,330,000 bushels against
falling off of 9,033,000 bushels in April.
Supplies in Europe, Australia and Ar
gentine also decreased, though to
much less marked extent and the result
is an aggregate worlds supply on June
l of 143, $4,000 bushels, a supply of 49,
100000 bushels less than on May l,
and comparing with decrease in May
year ago of less than 100000 bush
els and two years ago of an increase of
nearly 100000 bushels. The de-
crease in American and European sup
