HARpER's RAP AT THE EAST

Chicago Educator Says 1t Il Narrow
and Cannot Understand the West.
"It is impossible for New York to un
derstand the west. It is impossible for
the east to understand Chicago, and il
is out of the question for New Workers
to comprehend our university" said
William Rainey Harper, president Of
the University of Chicago, at the an
nual reunion of the alumn9 and alum
nj the other day in New York.
Loud and prolonged applause from
the graduates Of the institutions on
Lake Michigan greeted President Har-
per's illusions to the provincialism of
the east.
"The east knows nothing of the
west" continued DR.. Harper. "Boston
is even worse than New York. Why,
I am told that half the residents of
New England never have been west Of
New York state. How narrow and
provincial that is, and how can men,
coming from institutions in the east,
have any conception of what we are
doing in the west? Their ignorance
and misunderstanding are matters for
us to overcome.
Zone of the missions of the Universe
ty of Chicago, therefore, is to send men
and women to capture and control the
east. If we don't do this what will be-
come of it?"
DR.. Harper's address was the feature
of the annual meeting of the eastern
alumni of the institution of which he
is the head.

D g ADVICE TO WOMEN
Boston Jurist Tells Them to Shoot tt
Stop HOlduD Endemic.

OOA uI4Sl CHS A1lcHl 10 SHOOt 10
Stop HOldup Epidemic.
Let women take somebody with
them when they got out at night or
else carry revolvers and shoot if as
saulted.' is the advice of Judge EN-
mons. the chairman of the board of
police, to Boston women as the best
remedy for the holdup epidemic, says
a Boston special dispatch.
"The law protects a woman who de-
tends herself from dangerous as
saults," he said the other day. 1.-The
popular idea that there is some law
against a p%eaceable citizen carrying a
concealed weapon is a mistake. There
Is no such law, and unless a woman is
more afraid of a pistol than she is of a
highwayman let her arm herself. 1t
is better for her to have a revolver in
her hand to defend herself against a
criminal than a purse dangling at her
waist or sticking out from her pocket
to tempt him."
The women of the city are divided in
their opinions.
'"Things have come to a pretty pass
in Boston," said one business woman.
"ff we must have a bodyguard with
us whenever we go out on the street
after dark or else be quicker shots
than professional thieves and thugs"

strange Suit Against a. Town.

A curious suit is being brought
against the town of Enterprise, Kan,
by a living in Dickinson coun-
ty. Some months ago Clark Sickles was
killed by Horace Plaisted in the course
Of a row. Plaisted was sentenced to
three years in the ~penitentiary. Just
before the killing Plaisted had been ar
rested by the town marshal of Enter
prise for some small offense. The mar
shall did not confine him in Jail. but let
pear for trial. Now the mother of the
murdered man asks for judgment Of
$4,000 against the town or the ground
that Plaisted should have been in cus
tody, where he could not have harmed
her son.

Music. Erect ON Dropping Horse.

Fire Island, a very valuable English
race horse, recently gave a most re-
markable proof of the healing powers
of music. says a London cable dispatch
to the New York World. He lost his
appetite and refused to train, a condi-
ton of affairs that drove his trainer
and jockey to distraction. All name
Of remedies were resorted to without
avail, till the happy idea occurred to
them to place a music box in his stall.
Twice a day a string Of dances and
"God Save the King" RECALLED the
equine ears The effect was marvellous.
The horse regained his spirits, and the
trainer had no further trouble.

British Columbia Items.

The shipments from Rossland for
last week were somewhat less than
ordinary.
The Rossland Power and the White
Bear concentrators have under way
flume lines that will solve the water
problem for the supply of both mills,
which will largely increase the daily
average of ore crushed here. The
Spitzee mine has concluded its new
treatment arrangement and will soon
commence mining on larger scale
than ever before. The force will be
increased to 80 men. The Velvet
Portland mine now has a so ton addi-
ton to it's concentrator well under
way.
Boundary ore shipments for last
week were: CRANKY mines to CRANKY
smelter, 10000 TONS, Brooklyn to
Boundary Falls smelter, 713 tons; Mo-
Their Lode to Greenwood smelter, 4288
tons; Sunset to Boundary Falls smell
ter, 273 tons; Emma to Nelson and
Boundary Falls shelters, 1921 tons;
Mountain Rose to Greenwood and to
Boundary Falls smelters, 1872 tons.
Total for week, 17,427 tons; totol for
year, 600,126 tons. The CRANKY smell
ter treated 1O,725 tons last week.
1t is stated on good authority that
the st. Eugene mine near Moyie will
pay a profit of 100000 to the stock
holders this year. This included the
profits for the ore, the mill and lead
bounty given by the Canadian govern.
ment for the production of lead ores
Last month the st. Eugene is report
ed to have taken out $4,000 and the
big $50 ton concentrating plant is now
completed. This means that the st.
Eugene is one of the greatest produc-
ers in the country.
The town of Kamloops is about to
experience an era of prosperity on
account of the active mining opera
tons now being carried on there. The
Iron Mask company, which has good
property close to the city, is in good
ore which has large percentage of
gold, and the installation of extensive
machinery has just been completed.
The concentration has been running a
little over a week, and the result has
been very satisfactory. In addition to
this the Kamloops Coal company is
jubilant over the discovery of a large
vein of coal on it's claims.
