Guliford, who have just returned
from Prince Rupert and Port Simp-
son, Canada, after an absence Of over
a month on a sight seeing and pros
pecting tour of the extreme north.
Together with Albert Horseman,
these three well known citizens left
here on April 10 to look over the
situation at Prince Rupert, the Pa
cifc coast terminus of the Grand
Trunk Pacific railroad, which is now
being built across Canada.
There are now several thousand
men at that place, all idle, waiting
for the townsite to be thrown upon
the market and all disgusted with the
siuation. The Grand Trunk Pacific
people own a portion of the townsite
and this will not be placed on the
market until some time in September
Until then no one can get foothold
and there will be no use to go there
expecting to invest.
Work has actually begun on the
grade of the Grand Trunk Pacific at
Prince Rupert and a large force of
men is now at work there, but there
is not work for all of the laborors who
have gone there.
The Pendleton men looked over the
country thoroughly, but are not fa-
vorablv impressed with the outlook.
although they say that there will be
some fair chances for investment af-
ter the townsite is placed upon the
market in September,
The timber is heavy and comes
down close to the coast all along
that part OF Canada and the country
everywhere is underlaid with excellent
coal veins, and 1t is predicted by the
experts that it will become the great
est coal mining district in the world
in time.

THE ELKS' CLAMBAKE.
Enjoyable Time Held at Forest
 Park Yesterday.

There were great times up at Forest park yesterday at the annual clambake of the Waterbury lodge of Elks and 200 or more covers were set. There were many visiting Elks who took part in. the festivities. Ca terer John Moore was at his best and all the viands were eaten with a relish, which showed that some of the bunch had been training their appetites for the occasion. Games, songs and other amuSements fol- lowed the banquet and everybody had a high old time.
 Not satisfied with eating their fill, several endeavored to carry lent Holsters for future mastication. Among those was Joe Havican, he of the basso profundo vocal ability, and they do say that lobster is good for the voice too. If it is, and Joe was seeking them for that purpose, he was thwarted. He had two real fat ones done up nicely in a paper package, and was jollying the boys, at how easy it was to get them away. without being discovered He for got, however, that he had scouts on his track. Sanitary Inspector Cal lahan, Clothier John Grimes and Barber George Clearwater. They are three pretty nosy fellows, par ticularly the first one, whose busi- ness compels him to make discov- cries of hidden treasures, and some that are not treasures. The trail cd +a oheto ort. and there the objects of their search were located. Joe had left orders that they were not to be delivered unless on his order. The order came all right over the telephone, that a messenger boy would call for them. He did call, got the bundle and three scouts and Caterer Cor coran did the rest. The same mes senger boy was brought into play and the Holsters, devoid of all meat were delivered to Singer Joe at the Elks rooms. The denouement was a decided success and while the ant Tered brethren roared in laughter, Joe said things in broken English.
 Another, who wanted to have lonesome feed all by himself was Bill Mahaney. Bill had the time of his life up in the Elks rooms. trying to hang on to his bundle. He appropriated three of the red shelled fellows and in the last round, he had the paper and one claw. They do say that the genial secretary had a splendid shore dinner this noon. The committee in charge of the bake was M. F. Greaney, Edward McEvoy, Thomas Mcfarland, Al Rae and Louis Huss.

SAvIN ROCK CAR
Breaking of Forward Axle in Meadow
 Street Causes Bad Spill.

New Haven, August 24.-Although the actual results were not very ser ious the breaking of the forward truck on one of the short single truck trolley cars bound for Savin Rock in Meadow street, shortly after half-past three yesterday afternoon, came near enough to the death line to raise several shudders. The car, number 250, was proceeding down Meadow street with a comparatively small shore-bound crowd when just in front of the Adams Express company sta bles near Pfout street, the axle gave way without warning and the car made one desperate leap for infinity. It landed at right angles to the tracks and with the forward end of course borrowing into the street.
 Three women who were occupying end seats in the car were thrown out when the car jerked sharply and jumped the track. They were badly bruised and slightly injured and each had very narrow escape from being seriously if not permanently injured.
