‘The superintendent of one of the lead-
ing mines in the camp has given it out
that the carpenters employed about the
mines belonging to his company will be

of nine for aday’s work. It was also
stated that the miners would soon be

thatifan attempt is made to enforce
these statementa that there will be trou-
ble. Nine hours is long enough for any
man to work, and as the provincial gov-
ernment has passed as eight-hour law
for underground work it is not likely
that the mine owners will succeed in
forcing aten-hour demand. It ia sin-
ceresy to be hoped that there will be no
attempt to change the present hours of
labor in this camp, asthe employe is
only getting an honest day's pay for an

change in the working hours now in

The International.

_ The International presents a very. fine
show this week. The show opens with
W. Reed’s comedy entitled ‘Ten Bums
in a Barroom.” The specialties are all
good. Misa Conchita still holdsher own
this week, introducing her own song of
all nations and a number of other good
selections. The four Allenado a very
neat act this week. Baby Estelle in her
own songs cannot be beat. Fora child
of her age she isa wonder. In the
opening scene she does a very ‘clever
piece of acting. O’Brien, Jennings and
O’Brien this week produce a sketch from
real life. Mr, O’Brien as the Irish la-
borercould not be more natural. Annie
O’Brien as the Dutch boy is very good,
Owens and Wren, the new teain are
very sweet singers. Migs Belle Williams
and Jack Albion forma very clever
team. Miss Williams sings eomething
new in the coon line, while Mr. Albion
as an acrobat can’t be beat. Misa Con-
cbita’s comedy, ‘A Miner’a Daughter.”
ia well played by the company,.and is a
very pretty one-act comedy-drama. The
show should be seen by everyone.

regular monthly meeting. last night at
the Miners’ union hall.

taxpayer would still pay at least the old
water rate in added taxation, to provide
interest, and a sinking fund for the
money borrowed, and an additional tax
to help operate and raaintain such inde-

L again take exception toa statement
in the editorial referred to in the above
re the Stony creek supply; for the city
engineer, eo far asI have been able -to
gather, has never mentioned,the amount
of water that he considers can be ob-
tained fram the~ Stony Creek source,
whereas, it has been positively stated by
the water company’s ayents on several
occasions that Stony creek alone, not to
mention the Sheep creek source ot sup-
ply, which is owned by that company,
within the limits get by their charter, is
more than ample for 20,000 people.
