From Victoria to Rossland Thirty-One Hours. ap- in by- enr An important change in the time table of the Northern Pacific railway was announced last week to go into effect yesterday. The change bene- ficially affects Rossland and the Koot- enays. The twenty-two houre delay at Spokane has been chopped off by the new schedule so that p gers reac via the Nortnern Pacific can Roesland from Victoria in’ 31 hours; Kaslo in 36 hours; Grand Forks in 35 hours, and Nelson in 33 hours. This echedule will continue in furce as lung as business warrants. To facilitate this improved service the steamer City of Kingston, plying between Victoria and Tacoma lias made an alteration in its time table by which she leaves Victoria half an hour later than heretufore. This will im- prove her train connection at Ta- coma, enabling transportation co: panies to hanfle Kooteaty fr igs more quickly. . for nd ret at for al- his PERSONALS. Attorney A. H.
