Many of the loyal Canadians ont of respect for American brothers, hung the Star Spangled banner alongside of the Union Jack, The representatives of each flag vied with other in honoring Her. Gracious Majesty. All Government buildings, banks and many business houses were closed, and sports in- dulged in at the ball grounds.

Farly in the forenoon Attorney Forin noticed that there were no flags over the government buildings, rainely the post- office, the recorder’s office, or the cus- tom house, and he commenced a can- these places to find out patriotism of these gov- ernment officials were asleep. The result of his interviews were seen shortly afterwards by several Union Jacks fluttering from the poles of the buildings named.

algo has put out a torn and tattered Union Jack, which went through the battle of Waterloo.

The first active sports of the season opened this afternoon at 1 o’clock at the baseball grounds near the Black Bear mine. The Rossland lacrosse team and Trail basball teams presented them- selves early.

The Rossland Silver Cornet band ap- peared on the streets in their new uniforms and played several selections that reminded the languid townsman that this is a holday.

The grounds began filling up a quar- ter bofore two. The small boy was much in evidence, playing ball, getting in everybody’s way and making himself useless, generally, The grounds were in very good condition except for the dust which made it very disagreeable for the players.

The sprinkler was taken to the ground, but owing to the fact that no water could be found near, was useless The players did considerable practicing before the game commenced and ap- peared to be in fine form.

Tom Algie, secretary of the Red Eagle Gold Mining company, was among the first arrivals. John Hurd, proprie- torof the Grand Union hotel, J. L. Wilson and others were among those to arrive early. Mr. Wilson was saccom- panied by his inseparable companion Liddy, but she was not chosen as um- pire. The players did some hot skir- mishing before the game started, and if the way the acked each others shins

iterian of the game it must be very lively. The — Rossland cor- net band “appeared upon the scene promptly at a little past two o'clock, and entertained the audience, which had swelled to good proportions by that time, with several good selections, The bright millinery of the ladies, who crowded the grandstand, made a pleas-

“UNDER TWO FLAGS.”

The Boys Don’t Seem to Know Which is Theirs.

The boys in Rossland todav had their hats decorated with the Union Jack and the Stars and Stripes. Two Canadian boys sported only American flags while some of the “Yankee kids’ wore the Union Jack. Some had both. Thi: y ily illustrates the prevalent feeling here not only among the toys but among the people.

Sermons that appeal forcibly to the thinking and philanthropic people of

The clergy of Rossland has grappled with matters of local human interest, subjects that have the fire vi the Nine- teenth century in them.

Rev. H. 8. Akehurst in an cloquent sermon extolled the cause of the propos- ed Victorian Order of Nurses.

Rev. Powell in his evening sermon at the Methodist church touched upon a subject that will find a sympathetic lis- tener in every home. He made » plea for the young man, the ‘tenderfoot,’’ who in plain language has landed here with a few dollars and in a brief period finds himself stranded, ‘‘broke”” and a stranger among strange people.

Rey. A. 8. Grant, of Toronto, did not mince words in his sermon at the Baptist church. The point of his ser- mon was that the conflict between capital and labor which at frequent

At the close of the service a special collection was taken up for the Victor- ian Order of Nurses.

Rev. Akehurst prefaced his sermon ‘py announcing that next Thursday was ‘Nwcension Day and would be duly ob- iserved, and kept holy in honor of the ascension of our Lord. Then he took up tthe thread of his sermon, “bear ye one tnother’s burdens,” and procecded to
