Well , for the benefit of those vho do not know , it is built on he island of Vancouver , 84 miles lorthwcst of Seattle and 84 miles outh west of the cit } ' of Van- ouvcr. It is at the head of the trai hts that connect Pu ct Sound with the Pacific ocean. How many of you know the apital of British Columbia ? Well , for the benefit of those vho do not know , it is Victoria. If you ever have the chance , isit Victoria , it is worth any- ) ody's while , and the ocean or ather Sound trip is among- the nest beautiful in the world. A Falls City man and the writ- r boarded a steamer at Seattle one Sunday morning about seven ) 'clock to go to Victoria. Sevcr- il hundred other persons got board with the same intentions. Some like us were tfoing ; to make he round trip so as to be back in seattle the next morning. Others verc residents of Victoria , some vere on business bent. The ic-urse blast of the steamer was he signal for all idler to hurry iboard , for a moment thereafter he gang plank was drawn in , uid the wharf slipped noiseless- y away from us. * * * Until about ten o'clock in Seattle the fog is as dense as it s in London. Our boat was jardly into the Sound before we vere enveloped in a fog that Irifted in great sheets about us ind hid even the water at our side. The engines were shut down and at intervals of a minute he great whistle roared out its loarse warning. All about us was the noise of bells , horns and whistles , and the look-out strain ed his eves in an effort to discov er danger if it should be near. It seemed that the world had chang ed into a mighty pearl and that we were the center of it. The faint outline of a yellow sun was the only object in the universe that was visible. The cloaks and coats of the passcngsrs were Iripping with moisture , and the dead silence broken only b } ' the bells and whistles , became omin ous and oppressive. The man who knew was aboard however , and he told the Falls City man that the fog would soon lift. And lift it did. It was as though ome mighty hand had drawn aside the curtain of the world and disclosed the stage setting. Where a moment before had been nothing but a gray void there now was an endless stretch oi green water , glistening in the sunlight , and upon its surface were hundreds of white vessels each loaded with its human freight. So it shall be one day when the other mist shall roll away , am : the mighty waters of eternity sweep far intp the sunlit dis > tance , bearing upon their stir face those whom the fogs have hid for a while. * * * The first of many strange things one notices in Victoria ii the English flag flying from tin parlimcnt building. Then th ( red jackets and funny little capi of the soldiers are odd. You an notified by little signs on tin parliment lawns that you mus keep off the grass "by order o the King. " The parliraent build ing is a reproduction of the build ing in London , though not si large. The grounds are beautiful ! ; kept and the flowers are gorgeous The Falls City man went with ; crowd to the top of the parlimen building but I don't want to g < high up until I die , so I rcmainei on the ground. The city wa settled by the Hudson Bay com pany many years ago and the eli building erected by those hard ; pioneers are still standing. Th residences and lawns are beauti ful beyond anything you see ii America , for your englishman i great on country estates , sweep ing lawns , fountains and haw thorn hedges. Their busines Methods are quite different from ours. The newsboys don't get n front you yelling "peiper mis er , " neither does he address you espectfully and takes your no to nean just no. The street car onductor i not permitted to akc your money , but pushes a ontribution box under your nose uuch as the brcthern do at hurch , and with a "the Lord oveth a cheerful giver" cxpres- ion on his face says , "fare ) leasc. " The Falls City man aid when he saw this ; "well vhat do you think of that. " He ifterward told the conductor that he conductors in our country vouldn't stand for such a system , 'why , " he said , "they would get lothing out of the job but their alary. " I don't think the en glishman understood the joke as le looked very blank and bewild- red. * * . * Gorge Park in Victoria is the nest beautiful natural park I lave ever seen. A great forest of birch trees so thick that you annot see twenty feet into it. \.n arm of the sea winds through i picturesque canyon. On the vater hundreds of young men ind women were paddling canoes , or the remmant of the old days vas forbidden any other kind of > oat. Hundreds of people were n bathing. The ladies dress , if ou may call it dress , in very hort knickerbocker and no stock- ngs. The Falls City man and I stood quite a distance from the bathers trying to watch them swim , the underbrush was in our way and we walked closer to the bank to obtain a better view. Down under the shelving side of he bank , hidden by the brush sat an old sinner with sideburns ind a pair of field glasses. He was very much embarrassed when noticed us standing over him. To relieve his embarrassment he said "Ah beautiful view from lerc. " We noticed the bunch of barelegged girls he was watch ing and agreed with him. I lon't think he knows to this day that \\ejoshed him. That's one thing I learned while in Victoria , lon't try to josh an englishman. You have to furnish plans and specifications with every joke , and it's mighty wearing \vorli to explain your best joke. * * * Victoria is beautiful , more beautiful than any city I have ever seen with the possible ex ception of Washington and Los Angeles. It is a city of strange customs , for it has a larger pro portion of Englishmen in iti population than has the city ol London. But strange and beauti ful as it is , that portion of im trip that I shall remember long est was the journey back to 1113 own land. To sail out of a rocl bound harber on an afternoot that was all blue and white ; t ( feel the seabreexe whipping tin bluud to yuur cheeks ; to watcl the white gulls rise and fall witl the unceasing swell of the ocean to lean over the prow of the boa and gasse at the spouting sheet ; of foam as you cleave the water puts one in a frame of mind bord ering on the enthusiatic. The sea is ever changing bu never changed. It always take its mood from the sky. It i bright and gleaming and friend ly when the sun shines , it grow gray and sullen as the day die and influences one much as : view from the window upon gray , barren landscape at tli close of a winter's day. I watch ed the sun sink red into the wat erwith the feeling one haswhe : parting from friends. I saw th line as of molten copper it left o the surface when it reached th point where the sky and ocea meet. I stood alone on the bridge an saw the horizon drawing nea and nearer , and the night , spred ing its dark veil , creep stealthil over the sea. I saw the chum ing water in our wake chang from green to brass , to sulphu : to purple , to black. I felt th darkness as something tangible hat I might reach out my arms ind touch. I felt the loneliness is one in a desert. Yet out on he black waters I knew the gulls nnd other of God's little crca- urcs were resting in per- ect security , and I knew that all vas well. The moon rose out of he water casting her silver light uivering like a shining pathway 0 the great white throne. I valked about the boat. In ever } ' ark corner where the moon ould not see , sat a man and a uaid , for the little god with the > ow and arrows is yery much at ionic on the water in the mootr ight. I saw the light on the ky brighten as the distance to Seattle was lessened. The har- > or lights were twinkling white ml green in the distance. I cnew we were approaching home ml that the day that was end- ng would be remembered during ill the other days to come. ! * * If you wisli to realise how eally small and unimportant you re , go out to sea , way beyond he sight of land and look upon he endless , shoreless water. If 'anity abides with you as it docs vith most of us , stand alone on he bridge of a ship and watch he night swallow the ocean.

A dear old New England spin ster , the embodiment of ( he timid and shrinking , passed away at Darlsbad , where she had gone for icr health. Her nearest kinsman 1 nephew , ordered her body sent baclc to be buried as was her last wish in the quiet little country churchyard. His surprise can be magined. when , on opening the casket , he beheld , instead of the placid features of his Aunt Mary , the majestic port of an English general in full regimentalswhom lie remembered had chanced to die at the same time and place as liis aunt. At once he cabled to the general's heirs , explaining the situation and requesting in structions. They came back as follows : "Give the gtneral quiet funeral. Aunt Mary interred today with full military honors , six brass bands , saluting guns. " We notice from the State Jour nal that Mr. Yoacum who has had some trouble lately in getting his ideas of fishing proprieties straightened , called at the state house the first of the week to col lect some money which he thought should be there to pay for fish which had been confiscated from him. He failed to receive the money. -v - The Burlington offers for the Ak-sar-ben Festivities October 2 to 6 inclusive , tickets to Omaha and return at $4.05 , practically half rates.
