and says the storm was the worst in
the history of that town. Three lives
were lost and many had narrow es-

there having been a cloudburst few
miles north. DEBORAH is located in a
valley and the water rushed onto the
town at terrific speed. Kidder says
scores of fine residences were washed
from their foundations and carried
several rods away. Railroads were
washed out for seven or eight miles in
all directions. Telegraphic and tele.
phone communication was entirely cut

their followers of the wisdom of az
quiescing to terms of peace. Informa-
uon as to what transpired at yester-
Gays cabinet meeting is closely guard
ed, but it is not likely the cabiner
transaction were of vital import. There
is a widespread belief in the best IN
formed quarters that the end of the
war has come. In fact those best ac-
quainted with the actual details of ne
gotiations only qualify this optimistic
expression by guarded reservations
concerning the extent of the personal
control of the boer leaders over their
commands. The most pessimistic fore
cast admits that only a few isolated
bands of irreconcilables may be LEFT
in the field.
Asmember of the commons In close
touch with the government said last
night that he believed everything was
settled and that British terms woulu
be found Unexpectedly liberal.
The boer demands are as follows:
First, either an immediate grant of self
government or the fixing of a date fol
the establishment of self government.
Second, in case self government is
deferred the beers to be entitled to ad-
wise with their temporary rulers.
Third, amnety for rebels.
Fourth, permission to retain their
rifles for defense against natives.
Fifth, permission to retain thesaddle
horses.
Sixth, natives not to be treated up
on an equality with white men.
Seventh, that no limit be placed up-
on money for rebuilding and restock

IN COAL MINE

Fernie, B. c., May PA terrible
explosion took place in the Crows
Nest coal mine Thursday night At
the time of the explosion 200 men
were at work. Only thirty five are
known to have escaped 1t is feared
the great majority of those entombed
are dead. The mines always were
considered dangerous because of dust
and gas. The explosion is said to have
been caused by miner who lighted a
match. Scenes about the mine and in
the village are heartrending. Hardly a
