If you shoull see u rellow.man

Go mp and slap him on the back

And grasp Lis hand s. warm he'll
know no has n friend in you.
Then AK him what's u huitin' him,
and laugh his cares away,
And tell him that the darkest dight

Don't talk in graveyard pnlsver,
but say it right out loud,
That God will sprinkle sunshine
in the trail of every cloud
This world at best il but hash Of
of pleasure and of pain;
Some days are bright aud sunny,
and some all slosh'd with rain
a nd that just how it ought to he
for when the clouds roll by.
Well know just how to 'preciats

So learn TO take il Hs it comes and
don't sweat at Tia pores
Because the Lords opinion don't
coincide with yours,
But always keep remembe
when cares your path onshroud
That God has lots OF sdnshine TO
spill behind tho cloud.

JAPANESE GUNBOAT LOST.
Hei Yen Strikes Nine, and Nearly
200 Persons are Drowned.

Toxic. Oct. 13.-The Japanese gun
boat Hei Yen struck mine off Pigeon
bay on the night of September 18 and
foundered. It is officially stated that
1877 men were lost. Those rescued
managed to reach Chiao Pal island,
from which they were rescued. Per-
mission was today granted by the au-
thorities to publish the details of the
disaster.
! The ,Hei Ven, which was engaged in
guard duty off Pigeon bay, was missed
by the feet. and search for the vessel
was Immediately begun. The petty
officers and sailors found on Chiao Pei
island reported that at dusk on Sep
tember l8 a storm came up, accompan-
led by high seas. The .Hei Yen endeav-
ored to return to her base, when che
suddenly struck floating mine, which
exploded under her starboard side
amidships.1 The. vessel began to sink,
and an attempt was made to lower the
boats. The boats W re swamped and
the crew jumped into the sea-. .1wlafe,.
owing to the heavy combers, they were
quickly drowned.
Tho Japanese feet carefully searched
the patrolled locality, but failed to find
any other survivors.
:'eAn official announcement of the
disaster, issued today, says:
''It is highly regrettable that no re-
port in any form has been recevied OF
the fate of the other survivors. The
sad evert was made worse on account
of the weather, which must have added
greatly to the. already awful result
caused by the explosion of the mine. >, {;

Fire DESTROYS Three Business
Blocks in Winnipea.

Winnipeg, Man., Oct. 13-Fire to
night destroyed three of the finest bus
iness blocks in this city. entailing 8
loss of at least $500, 600. For time
the flames. threatened to spread to ad.
joining buildings, and but for the
splendid work of the fire brigade 9
much larger money damage would have
been incurred.
The fire started in the new Pullman
block, which was totally destroyed.
The Ashdown Hardware company, ON
Bannatlne street, one of the largest es-
Establishments of its kind in Canada, was
next attacked by the flames. Many
explosions were caused by powder and
cartridges carried in the stock of the
hardware company, but no one was in
jured. The Rialto block and the Great
Northern telegraph Office were also de-
stroyed. There is no estimate of the
amount OF insurance.
The Woodbine hotel block and
Dufferine block were also badly dam
aged. The chief sufferers in those
blocks were the Slater, Shoe company,
the Gundy Music company, Calder's
photograph supplies, and Raver's sta
tionery stock and Connolly, drugs.
Tie electric light and power service
was cut off owing to the fire, and all
newspaper offices are in darkness.
The Free Press Office, in the rear of the
Bullman block, escaped injury.

cabin in the woods nine miles west o1
Tacoma and captured n. N. Stone, vir.
tually in V the act of manufacturing
spurious United States balf dollars,
quarters and dimes. Mr.. Bell was as
sisted in the raid by deputy United
States marshal, two Tacoma detectives
and special secret service agent who

weeks. >,
One of the most elaborate outfits ever
captured in the Northwest was seized
together with, the. molds, which were
discovered in a stove. where. they had
been placed to dry only few minutes
before. Stone confessed his guilt when
confronted with the evidence, but main
tanned that he was only "experiment-
ing" and had not actually put any of
the counterfeit money into circulation.
The cabin in which Stone conducted
his operations is located in a dense
swamp, entirely removed from human
habitation.. It is conceded that it
would hardly have been discovered had
not the secret service officers secured a
clew in Seattle, where 9 considerable
part of the layout was purchased.

Growing Special Crops.

Growing Special Crops. if'
| Each year: there are numbers of
fgrowlers among farmers who wish
they could find some branch of agri-
cultural work less arduous than mixed
farming. 1t is admitted that ON some
farms hard work Is about all there is
to be found, and yet the conditions
surrounding many such farms are
such that only mixed farming can be
carried on with any degree Of success.
On the other hand, there are farms de-
voted to general farming which should
be turned into specially farms. Then,
too, we find farmers who are peculiar
" successful In growing some one or
two crops.
In such cases the way is plain. If
the soil and conditions seem suited to
these one Or two crops one can grow
better than his neighbors, such crops
should be made specialtes-not the
entire farm devoted to them, but suf-
f1cient OF it to bring proper returns
We believe the ideal farm to be the
one which is made to produce the nv-
ing-that is, the food-for the people
and the stock on it, and the remaining
acres devoted wholly to specialtes
which experience has proved Of value.
In this way one is sure Of living and
Of money crop varying according to
climatic and market conditions; but
generally, at its worst, sufficient to
bring in what cash is needed for the
year.
