For several weeks White, with

a good offer from Frank Isbel, an

Now he is being sought as pilot

Hogan, but the former Brown said

Tommy Burns, are in town. So are
Jess Willard and Tom Jones. Both of
the fighters are heavyweights. They
met in Lewis gym yesterday, and, as
is usual, the managers threw away
the safety valve and talked largely
of the abilities of their meal tickets.
One challenged the other to put on
an impFomptu fight.
Willard and PeIkey then stripped
to ring toys, climbed through the
ropes and gave each other hard
looks. Before they could. exchange a 1

without the formality of a few
months of training and the writing of
blood-curdling defs by their man

HAIR CUT BY A SQUIRREL

Ernest J. Bloom, a photographer
of Hood River, Ore, who has been
passing the last two weeks at the
ranch of R. E. Scott, secretary of the
Commercial club, returned home with
portion of his hair gone
Mr.. Bloom had been working in the
garden and making a lawn on the
ranch. He was taking a nap after
lunch when squirrel that had been
making its home in the house this
winter, evidently thinking his long
black locks would make an excellent
lining for nest, trimmed off a por-
ton of the hair while he slept

could scarcely feel him at work there

hairs out instead of cutting them.

looked very well this morning. Since
Dominick's return she had looked
haggard and thin. Sometimes she had
seemed to see, showing shadowy
through her reflected face in the mir
ror, the lines and hollows Of that face
when time should have put stamp on
it that neither massage nor pigments
would efface. A sudden moment of
revelation showed her herself as an
old woman, her nose pointed, her
mouth a thin, tight line. This morn
ing the glass gave her back none OF
these disconcerting hints. She was at
her best, and as she dressed carefully
and slowly, she had the satisfaction OF
seeing that each added article of ap-
parel increased her good looks. When
she finally put on her new hattie
one she had bought in celebration Of
Dominick's return-and over it tied
white and black dotted veil, she was
so gratified with the picture she pre-
sented that she was reluctant to leave
it and pirouetted slowly before the

she might see the full effect Of her
lilac petticoat as it burst into sight
in an ebullition of pleats and frills.
Walking up the avenue she was
bridlingly conscious that her brilliant
appearance drew it's tribute Of chances.
Many people looked at her, and their
sidelong admiration was an even more
eXhilarating tonic than the sunshine.
She walked with light, elastic. step,
spreading perfume on the air, her
progress accompanied by rich seduc-
tive rustic. Once or twice she passed

swept by them, languidly Indifferent,

Ger their heads. The sound made by
her brushing silk petticoats was graft

them a slight disdainful swing, and
lifted her dress skirt daintily higher,
conscious of the impeccable amplitude
of her emerging lilac frills.
The habit of dining with her own
people on Sunday had been one she
had never abandoned, even in the first
aspiring days of her marriage. 1t was
a sort of family reunion and at first

The solid bourgeois rsspectability Of

THE LURE OF The WEST
WESTERN CANADA ATTRACTING
THOUSANDS OF SETTLERS.

Writing on the Canadian West, an
eastern exchange truthfully says:
"The West still calls with imperar
tive voice. To prairie and mountain,
and for the Pacific Coast, Ontario's
young men and women are attracted
oy tens Of thousands yearly. The
great migration has put an end to the
rear, freely expressed not many years
ago by those who knew the West from
the lakes to the farther coast of Van
couVer Island, that Canada would
some day break in two because of the
predominance of Continental European
and American settlers in the West"
This is true. While the immigra-
ton from the United States is large.
running close to 100000 a year, that Of
the British Isles and Continental
Europe nearly twice that number, max
ing a total Of 100000 per year, there
is strong influx from Eastern Can
ada. 1t is not only into the prairie
provinces that these people go, but
many Of them continue westward, the
glory Of British Columbia's great trees
and great mountains, the excellent
agricultural valleys, where can be
grown almost all kinds of agriculture
and where fruit has already achieved
prominence. Then the vast expanse

even in the cities with their record
breaking building rush, is the small
est part of the great panorama that
is spread before the eye on a journey
through the country. Nature is still
supreme, and man is still the divine
pigmy audaciously seeking to impose
his will and stamp his mark upon an
unconquered half continent.
The feature that most commends
itself in Western development today
Is the 'home-making spirit" The
West will find happiness in planting
trees and making gardens and build
ing schools and colleges and UNIVERSE
ties, and producing home environ
ment SO that there will be no DISPOSE
ton to regard the country as a tenn
porary place Of abode in which every
one is trying to make his pile prepar-
atory to going back East or becoming

The lure Of the West is strong. Il
will be still stronger when the crude
