HE FOREST FIRES ARE DOING GREAT DAM- AGE IN THE WEST. Vancouver's Timber Wealth is Going Up in Flames--Many Buildings Burned--Great Loss of Birds. £ 17.--The 'Canadian Pacific railway company has received word that forest fires are raging in the south part of Vancouver Island, and that many miles of valuable tim- ber have been destroyed. The strip of timber wealth 'of the island is being swept away. In the Robertson river district there is a fire frontage of five miles. At Bear Lake the buildings, with supplies for survey parties, were destroyed and also a aumber of isolat- ed dwellings and lumber company buildings. A pathetic feature of the conflagra- tion is the loss of game, hundreds of grouse, and 'millions of other birds have perished. The loss in timber is said to be two million dollars already and the fire shows no sign of stop- ping. 5 Winnipeg, Aug. ALL IS QUIETNESS, Several Hundred Negroes Fled From Springfield.

Guelph, Aug. 17,~A missing finger led to the identification and -artest by the Guelph police of John Kelly, a voung man who made his escape from the authorities at Cannington, on July 17th. Kelly, who is littl than a lad, is wanted on a charge it his description on a postcaed sent out more of assaulting a young girl, ani was by the Cannington chief of police that led to his arrest. He was taken about seven miles from the city on .a fam near Armstrong's Mills, where he had been working for the past couple weeks under his own name. Since from eustody Kelly has been working his way through the couhtry to farm. The Camnington have been notified of the or of from farm adthorities arrest, To Preserve Eggs. An Australian chemist has invented a process of preserving eggs by desic- estion. The eggs, freed from the shells, are dried at the relatively low temperature of 130 degrees. This can be rapidly executed in containers kept at this temperature, from which the air has been exhausted, and from which the moist vapor hasibeen with- drawn as fast as it is given off by evaporation from the eggs. There is no alteration in the chemnical com- position of the eggs--only a loss of the greater part of the water. When thoroughly desiccated and pulverized into a cearse powder, the egg material can be preserved for an indefinife per- iod in ordinary packages, if keptadry. The eggs are "reconstituted". by: the simple addition of water to the « dry powder, the resultant mass being quite indistinguishable from newly- beaten eggs. entaam---------------------- An Ancient Tombstone. During the restoration of St. George's Church, Fordington, Dor- chester, England, a slab of Purbeck marble, 2 feet 11 inches by 2 feet 41-2 inches, and 6 inches thick, has' been discovered bearing a Latin inserip- tion, part of whieh, however, has been worn away. Particulars of the slab have been sent to the British Museum and to expert Romanologists, but no explanation has been received yet from any authoritative source. The vicar, Rev. Richard Grosvendr Barte- lot, has given as a possible transla- tion: "Gaius Aristobulus (?), a Roman citizen, aged 50 years. Rufinus and Marina and Avea, his children, and Romana his wife." He staes that Aris- tobulus was one of the seventy dis-' ciples that came to Brita obeying St. Paul's order. - He is sald to have died in the year A.D. 99. Beresford and Buller. Fighting Lord Charlie Beresford and Sir Redvers Buller both deservedly earned a high reputation for bulldog tenacity of purpose. During a Nile Lord campaign Charles and Sir Redvers, descending | sone "bad water" in a river steamer, | Zot into a discussion as to the proper channel to be taken. Rach obstinate- ly defended his own course, but in the end Buller §ot his own way, with the result' that the: steamer ran "Yon see, 1 was right," cried the "Mine was the proper chan- pel. "That Was mine, t00," coolly 're- plied Lord Charles. "I only recom- would go agafnst whatever I said!"-- London Realm. ' The Malay Mangosteen.

Foreign Military Officers Said #0 Be Hard at Work, Col, Lockwood has directed .the tention of the British Gevernment the presence of foreign military offi cers in this country who 'industrious ly supply their own Governments with maps and. photographs of certain prominent territgries in Great Bri- tain. The ordi English citizen has very little idea of the magnitude or activity of the foreign spies' ¢ ations. He appears in numberless dis. guises--from the man and woman whom our immigration authorities might be inclined to describe, judg- ing by thelr sartorial appearances, as "undesirables," to the highly polish. ad, Jrosperoua-looking person who is eligible to share the luxury and ex- clusiveness of the best-appointed ball rooms "in the West End of London. Whatever may be their outward ap- pearance, all are accomplished lin- guists, and while the majority speak with a pronounced foreign accent, many of them have, by long residence in England and constant contact with Engli shake off every trace of their foreign ancestry. Needless to say they are all well provided with money, which they are not dbove spending lavishly as occasion demands. It map come as more than a mere surprise to many to know that some of those spies who reach these shores with names that outrage British euphony, become in time naturalized British subjects, with names that a British baby can easily enunciate. Perhaps if the authori- ties at our Home Office knew how many of those '"'naturalizations" have been brought about there would be less spies in England and less British subjects outside the walls of our prisons. There is a huge traffic in this naturalization business with which the authorities seem unable to cope. : A few years ago, it will be remem- bered, a well-known London solicitor was found trafficking in this way with disastrous results to himself: But the traffic still goes on, so that a con- siderable number of persons of for- eign origin and with mercenary mo- tives become enrolled as British sub- jects, so as to allay suspicion. One section of these spies operate among working men, ingratiating themselves particularly with. those who know something of military training, disei- pline and methods. In the workshops they endeavor to start a discussion on barrack-room life, the value of air- ships in war, the latest developmigiit of the military rifle, signalling, life aboard a man-of-war, and other such topics. The man who appears to show -| the widest and the most _intricate knowledge is singled out, and he and the spy will possibly become fast friends. At any rate, it will not be the fault of the spy if such a con- summation 'is not effected. Perhaps the most dangerous spy of all is the polished foreigner with a university training and an encyclo paedic knowledge of men and things. He pursues his operations in a var- ipty of ways. One favorite way is to Secure an appointment in an academy devoted 'to the training of young men for the army and navy. He comes with excellent credentials from the professors of his university; and being in every case a gentleman by birth as well y education, he has very little difficulty in obtaining a "situation." Whilst he is skilful in imparting knowledge in continental and oriental languages, he is also re- sourceful in discussing #military top- ics, although he carefully hides the fact that he has an intimate acquaint ance with most of the military meth- ods of Europe. "His official and so- cial position secures him an entree to the home of military officers where, by his agreeable manners, he in time becomes an - honored guest, enjoying the respect and confidence of all who meet him. He réceivea invitations to balls, garden parties, and social receptions, gathering information as he goes along which he carefully re- cords and passes on to his own Gov- ernment. 1 Why the Yankee Flag Is Flown. Considerable comment has been aroused by the action of the Niagara Navigation Co. in raising a large U. 8. flag at, the bow of the Cayuga she enters Lewiston harbor: She flys a Canadian flag at her stern, but the flag hoisted at the bow is larger in size, and many loyal Cana- lians think that the company's de- sire to please our American visitors carries them too far. . The agent in charge of the com- pany's office at the wharf laughs at the suggestion. of disloyalty. "Very few pgopla know," said he, "that it is an international law that wessels entering any foreign port shall fly the ensign of that country at the bow. As we ply between Toronto and Lewiston, we fly the Canadian flag at the stern, which is the fMace™of honor, and the American flag at the bow. It is a matter of international courtesy, so to speak." | "You must not forget that we draw {a very great part of our patronage | from the Amerieans," he.replied. "We arry more excursions from this side, some of our best passengers cme across the line." The charge that the American flag is hoisted avhen the vessel enters To- rome harbor was de 1, and the *C | statement made that the flags are. | carried all the time. Pfeachers Who Motor.
