The Pacific Coast Excursion steam
er Queen arrived in port tins morn
ing at five o'clock bringing one of the
most wealthy and notable crowd of
tourists that have been brought to
the north.
Nearly all of them went out on the
special excursion train to Bennett,
and will return at two o'clock this
afternoon, after which the town will
be turned over to them.
Mrs. Mary Hart, the lecturer aboard
ship, brings word that l">an Cupid,
the sly rascal has been exceedingly
busy on the port side of the ship on
the way up, and that he has already
done irreparable damage. An effort
was made by the alarmed duennas to
capture him. but he has eluded all i
efforts so far. It is thought that he
is in hiding on the starboard side of
the ship. The Queen will leave at
4 o'clock Skagway time.

OTTAWA. Aug. 2 ? The ministers
met In council Saturday morning and
when they dispersed shortly after 1
o'clock it was announced that parlia
ment had been dissolved and that el
ections will take place on Thursday.
Sept. 21. with nominations one week
earlier. Mr. Fielding made the an
nouncement. Member* will get away
to their constituenones at once. Sir
Wilfrid I^aurler was in a happy frame
of mind and evidently expects a de
cisive victory.
The dissolution of the Canadian par
liament carries the question of reci
procity between the United States
and Canada before the Canadian e!ec?
orate where the reciprocity issue from
this time until the election on Sept
21, will be the controlling issue.
The announcement of dissolution
was a fulfillment of Laurier's ultima
tum delivered to the opposition forces
last Monday that cont'.nued resistance
to a vote would be met by an appeal
to the country.

ident of the Pacific Coast company,
