A Tribute to Weather Conditions
In Western Canada.

During the early portion Of Febru-
airy, of this year, the middle and
Western States suffered severely with
the intense cold and winters storms.
Trains were delayed, cattle suffered,
and there was much general hardship.
While this was the case, throughout
Western Canada, now attracting so
much attention, the weather was -er-

COTTON
Growth of Manufacturing
 in China
Though by no Means a New Industry There It Has Taken on a New Life in Recent Years.

Washington, April 9.-"Cotton Mills in China" discussed by MT. J. w. Jamieson, British commercial attache in that country is as subject of unusual importance, especially to the cotton manufacturers of the United States, 40 per. cent of whose annual exports are marketed in China. The following is an abstarct of the report in question, a copy of which has just been receiv- ed by the department of commerce and labor through it's bureau of statistics According to the report, dated March, 1905, there are seventeen establish ments in China and Hongkeng operat- ed by means of steam driven machin- cry, their total number of spindles be- ing 619.64S. Of these,<9 establishments, with S25,0O0 spindles, are located in Shanghai alone, and one at Hongkong, with 55,0O0 spindles.
 The spinning of cotton into yarn, says MT Jamieson, and the weaving of that yarn into cloth are industries which. while not anterior to the man ipulation of silk and of hemp fibers. have existed in China for over one thousand years. Carried on practical ly throughout the whole empire, their great center has fo- centuries been the country where cotton is grown to the best advantage, that is to say, the sea- board round the mouth of the Yangtze and the Hangehow Bay and the level plains of the provinces of Hupei. And it is there where have been established the various mills for treating raw cot ton by means of steam driven machin- cry. The Initial experiment. on mod efn lines was made in 1891. when semiOhiciaI Chinese syndicate started at Shanghai. Its originators claimed for themselves a quasi monopoly. and prohibited outsiders, who were not pre- pared to pay a fixed royalty for the privilege, from engaging in similar un- dertakings. Although certain Chinese accepted this onerous condition for eigners resented it as an undue inter ference with their treaty rights, and it was only when Japan, in 1895, after her wcr with China inserted in the treaty of Shimonoseki an article pro- viding for the freedom of Japanese subjects to engage in all kinds of man. ufactUring industries in the open ports Of China, and permitting them to inn port machinery for such purposes. that outsiders were afforded an opportuni- ty of exploiting the rich field for com mercial development thereby thrown open.
 The Hongkong Cotton Spinning, Weaving and Dyeing company was started in 1898, with view to catering for the wants of southern China, and hoped to find in Borneo a source of supply of raw material. Such hopes,

WORK OF A MURDERER
Skeleton Of an Unknown Man Found
 in Aravaipa Canyon.

The skeleton of some man who was probably murdered a year or two ago was found recently in the ATavaipa canyon near the ranch of Harmon Hig- gins. Mrs. Higgins and children were picking wild flowers when One of the little ones brought the mother a human skull, which was later shown to MT. Higgins and le in turn reported the matter to Sheriff Wills.
 According to <le Florence Blade the sheriff and MT. Higgins after a short search found the skeleton of 9 large man under 9 pile of rocks that in turn was undor. a pile of brush. The place is an unfrequented spot and it was the opinion of the sheriff that the victim had been murdered elsewhere and the body brought there for conceaIment-
 The arms had been pinioned to the sides of the body by a leather strap, which was still in place, and the ankles of the victim had been tied together with a rope. The rope was still in a good state of preservation except at one point where it had been saturated with blood which caused it to rot and part The side of the skull had been caved in. apparently by c blow of some kind. There was no clothing left on the skeleton and it is probable that this had been burned of the upper part of the body. as the leather strap binding the arms to the side of the body had been scorched by fire. A rawhide sole was sticking to one of the feet Sheriff Wills measured one of the thigh bones of the skeleton and found it to be the same length of his own. This would indicate that the dead man was over six feet in height. as Mir. Wills stands about six feet and two inches. From the condition of the brush covering the rock pile under which the skeleton was found MT. Wills thinks it has lain there at least two years.

made to stamp out this evil with the aid of official support Other reasons why the spinning industry in China has hitherto proved compara- tive failure, are to be found in the lack of experience, everything at first being more or less in the nature of experi- ment
 Chinese labor is becoming more ef- ficient year by year; it is more amen able to discipline and shows q greater disposition to keep steadily at work: The working day lasts 13 1-2 hours, night shifts working 10 hours extra Many mills in Shanghai pay by piece work and the average amount earned is 12 cents day. Elsewhere much lower rates of wages are obtained.
