How Much Shall We

When will the bands begin play in the parks'
The park board has not decided.
Nor has il decided how much money spend
this year for band music. Members OF the park
board interviewed by The Star agree that the
matter should receive attention.
Two years ago the park board spent only $4,000
for band music. At the time about half a
million dollars spent in the construction and
maintenance of boulevards.
One year ago The Star called attention to the
need of more band music. and the result that
the park board appropriated $4,000 for that purpose
How much shall the city of Seattle spend THIS

But after all, the boulevards used by linn

The Star believes that. from advertis-
ing and business standpoint, Seattle reap
greater advantage from a complete and thorough

The child was exceedingly bright

me q good deal about the troubles be-

repeatedly stated that she did not
know exactly where her papa was go

probably visit Australia and then on

Rand.

Sir Thomas Shaughnessy, president
of the Canadian Pacific Railway, has
said that IL their trade expectations
were realizsd he did lot think there
was the least doubt about 1.-THE new
liners Empress Of Asia. and Empress
Of Russia would be followed in the
near future by steamers of even larg-
er capacity. Developments in China,
Japan and the Far East generally
were only in their infancy, and with
the awakening now started, and the
spirit Of progress in full operation,
business relations with the North
American continent were sure to be
strengthened Immensely. To bring
to the Dominion the greatest share of
that trade constituted q large part
of the policy of the Canadian Pacific
company Years ago the Pacific was
regarded as a sort OF unimportant
commercial highway. but that was
not so today. Progress had been made
with such marvellous rapidity that It
was but a question of few years be-
fore the world would recognize two
gateways to- North America, instead
of that of the Atlantic alone. which
had long served as the recognized en-
trance to Canada.
