King Alfonso desires to marry a South
american belle with the necessary funds.
This is a good deal like, marrying into
revolution and would be dangerous to
Spain.
Richard Mansfield has Just returned

Richard does not say whether this refers

There Is deep subtle hurnor underlv-
Ing Professor Triggs': utterances. People
who do not dig below the surface do not
know Triggsy. The comparison Of Rookie
Teller to Shakspere and the statement that
political government rather than an in
dustrial government was a mistake of the
fathers, are rich whsfa you get wise to
them. Anyone whd thinks Professor
Triggs' curves are simple should not try
to solve them without the higher mathe-
matics.
sSH Archbishop Ireland had in stock all
the red hats the correspondents at Rome,

Kicking Horse Pass, Aug 25.-Here we
all are I. o. b. again, with Dr. Morrill, still
the life Of the party, on our way to the
Pacific coast! Shortly after leaving Banff
the train made the famous climb up the
Bow river to the summit, then down the
steep Kicking Horse grade, through Kick
Ing Horse pass to Glacier. 1t was hair
raising, terrifying trip and on the steep
grade down, the pastor got out on the
rear Of the last coach and dragged his
foot to help "brake up"
| There is stream Of water on the sum-
NIT which divides, half flowing into the
Bow river and SO down to Hudson's bay,
and the other half into the Kicking Horse
river and by this route in the other di-
rection 1t was proposed to drop 3, bottle
In each stream with an account of the
trip tnclosed in 1t, to be picked up where
it might but when the eighth ward ex-
FOUNDER discovered that beer bottles were
to be used he uttered a mighty protest
and the project fell through. It Is
thought that this action ensures the doc
tor a nomination for the nayoralty.
At Glacier the pastor slipped up badly,
by stepping on 1t. The glacier at this
point was made of ice and it secured a
half nelson on DR.. Morrill, before he could
| chirp He went up into the air like a
that emptied a peck Of new consultations
around In the sky and that was too full
| Of sorrow for harsh words. ...~* -.
"Are you sprained anywhere" asked
the wit Of the party, and the genial pas
tor replied:
| 'There has been severe strain on my
creed. AS a Baptist I have no opposition
to water, but this water here seems to be
too hard" .,,.', =
| So we resume our trip on the train and
| 60 shooting around curves, beside the
banks Of: mighty forest rivers, across
great reaches of prairie and farmland un-
! til the man who pulls the guide book ON
| you at every possible opportunity, shouts
out 1.-THE Pacific! The Pacifc!' And
| everybody cranes his neck to look or
/ shouts II see it," while the pastor, for
| getting his accident in the general jubila-
1 tion Of the moment, stands on his hands
/ in the aisle Of the car and waves his legs
joyously In the air. And so we steam into
1 Vancouver amid general good feeling and
i brotherly kindness, ! -,t -. ..:
