C. P. R. Will Prepare For
Good Season
The Canadian Pacific Railway Com
pany is preparing for a much better
steamship svrvlce on the North Pacific
coast next year than it ever has had
before. The Princess May will have
>150,000 expended on her in repairs,
practically making her a new ship, and a
new boat is now building at Victoria.
The Princess May will go to the ship
yards November 1, and the expenditure
of $150,000 that has been appropriated
for her improvement will begin. She
will be practically made over.
When she comes from the ship yards
the Princess May will have accomo
dations for 200 first-class passengers m
twe-berth state rooms, and she will
have social balls the full length of the
ship. The promenades on the main
deck will be done away with. The
house will be built up flush with the
hull of the ci aft. The stk.e rooms on
that deck will^all open ic!o social
halls in the center of the vessel, as they
do on several of the other popular pas
senger ships. Above this deck there
will be a double row of staterooms,
which will extend from one end of the
ship to the other, except for an ob.
seryaticn room forward. Still above
this deck there will be a few statr.
rooms in the texas, in addition to those
occupied by the navigating officers.
These will be directly in the rear of
the pilot house. The dining room will
be removed from its present position,
ubout midships below the maiu deck,
to a position on the same deck in the
after part of the vessel. The smoking
room will be unchanged. It is desired
to save the carved mahogany finishings
of this room intact as they are at the
present time.
In addition to all these improvements
the machinery in the Princess May will
give place to new. The engines and
boilers have been built and are on
their way from Great Britain. There
will be three boilers instead of two.
These will add a knot or more per
hour to the ship's speed,
The new vessel that is being built by
this company will be about 250 feet
long. The plans and lines of the Prin
cess Victoria are being used, the chief
difference being that the new boat will
be made of wood and not so large.
PRINCESS MAY
DDE TOMORROW
The Canadian Pacific liner, Princess
May, will be due to arrive in port to
morrow morning. She was scheduled
to sail from Vancouver last Friday.
While no word has been received from
her it is taken to mean that she sailed
on her schedule. She should have a
large mail.
Later ? A cablegram received this
evening says the Prncess May sailed
on time. She should arrive tomorrow
morning.

What Lincoln Said When Ilarvey
Ended a Two Hour*1 Talk.
The late Hon. Charles W. Slack told
the following of the Hon. Peter Har
vey, the frleud and biographer of Dan
iel Webster:
Mr. Harvey was a large man with a
small voice and that pomposity of man
ner that many very dillident men pos
sess. Above everything he valued and
prided himself upon his friendship with
the "great expounder."
The first year of the War of the Re
bellion he went to Washington, and on
his return was asked how he liked
President Lincoln.
"Well," he said, "Mr. Lincoln is a
very singular man. I went on to see
him, and told him that 1 had been an
intimate personal friend of Daniel
Webster; that I had talked with him
so much on the affairs of the country
that I felt perfectly confident I could
tell him exactly what Mr. Webster
would advise in the present crisis, and
thereupon I talked to Lincoln for two
solid hours, telling him just what he
should do and what he should not do,
and, will you believe it, sir, when I gat
through all Mr. Lincoln said was, as he
clapped his hand on my leg, 'Mr. Har- :
vey, what a tremendous great calf yon <
have got' "?Boston Herald. i

Wooltex Winter Coats
FOR WOMEN AND CHILDREN
The Wooltex Winter Coats for Women and Children are now here.
We would like to have you call and examine this splendid line, as it is our
opinion as well the opinion of thousands of smart dressed women all over
the country, that for style quality and fit, there are no garments to match
the Wooltex- WooUex garments are made of perfectly reliable cloths,
proved by chemical and sun tests. Whether wool, silk or mohair, it is
tested and guaranteed for durability, and the fabric is thoroughly sponged
and shrunk. These tests are applied not only to the outer cloth, but to
the lining and underlining, all oi which must come up to the Wooltex
standard or be rejected.
