HINDU RISING 1s SERIOUS. l â€"_ Shots Were Fired, and Authorities llepulscd. A despatch from Ottawa says: The fight of the Hindus to obtain entry into British Columbia. reach- ed a climax Saturday night, acâ€" cording to official reports received here by the immigration branch of the Department of the Interior. The investigation by agents of the department resulted on Saturday morning in an order refusing en- trance to nearly 350 of the Hihdus on board the Komagata Mara, an-dl the captain of the vessel was given . until (3 o’clock to act. He found himself unable to control the ship and make steam. He asked for as- sistance, and a tug was sent out from Vancouver with immigration officials, special officers and about ' 1610 police. ' This force was beaten back by the of coal hatchets, odd bits of Ina-- chinery. brick-s, etc., besides firing. several shots. The police did not return the shots, but endeavored for several hours to gain the decks of the Komagata Maru without success. About 20 of them were in- jured, including the tug captain, who had two ribs broken. When 94--....“ FIVE VESSELS LOST. ’ Nova Seotia.

The ves- sels were the Norwegian steamer Ragna, 1,052 tons, from Chester, Pa., to St. Ann’s, C.B., which ran LADY HARDIANGE, Vice-,Reine‘ of India, who died at a.

A despatch from Stratford say-s: Little threeâ€"year-old Irene Ed- munds‘, of Nile street, got hold of some matches and played with them. She was still playing with them when her mother found her and took them away. The heads of some of the matches had apparently been bitten off. The child was seiz- ed with spells of vomiting so severe that the parents summoned Dir. Hepburn. The doctor had her tak- en to the hospital immediately, and for three hours, with the assist- ance of Dr. Rankin, he worked on the child, but with no avail, and she died about three o’clock Friday Conditions are Very Poor in Some Placesâ€"Gene 'ally Excellent. A despatch from Regina, Sask., says: The crop report of the Sas- katchewan Department of Agricul- ture, based on replies received by telegraph to inquiries as to the conditions on July 11, states that conditions at the moment justify the statement that seldom has the crop within one Province shown such excellenceon the one hand and such poor conditions on the other. Fortunately the area of the crop in which conditions are excel: lent greatly exceeds that in which they are poor. The outlook at the moment is for seventyâ€"five per cent. of an average crop. Conditions have been improved afternoon. 'The victim of the recently by a fairly general rain on matches is the (laughter of Mr. July 11 and a considerable number and Mrs. “Toad” Edmunds. Mr. Edmunds is renowned as wide as the Dominion in hockey circles, both as a player and referee. â€"-â€"'{< STRANGE WASH ON LINE. of local showers.

A despatch for Ottawa, says: In a. yard at the corner of Queen and O’Connor Streets in Ottawa, there is the most remarkable looking wash hanging out on a clothes line that the capital ever saw. It consists of the bones of a whale. Nearby are the fins called by Whalers the front feet of the sea monster, and the big vertebral bones are strung to- gether on an iron water pipe. The yard adjoins the building of the Do- minion Fisheries exhibit. The whale lately disported itself in the waters of the North Atlantic. It was 45 feet long, which will be the measurement of the skeleton when it is put together and mounted. Cloud Burst Does Ilcavy Damage The work will “11:? all Summer. in Part of New Brunswick. ,, .. ' ,_ f """â€" 7 , A despatch from Apohaqui, N.B., I“ 0 BRO’HIEES DRO“LED saysfi A cloud burst Saturday morning during the most disastrous storm in the memory of residents of Apohaqui caused damage in that section conservatively estimated at $300,000, and will result in the clos- ing of the Jones Brothers mill at the Province during the period from June 30 to July 14. Without _ the slightest doubt the summer fal-. low that has 'been early and deeply plowed and has also received suf- ficient subsequent cultivation, has justified itself once more, and will prove to be the sheetâ€"anchor of those farmers in the drier districts that had prepared one. In many of the newer districts, of course, settlement is almost too new for this form of preparation to be as general as itlmust ibecome if agri- culture is to- be successfully and permanently practised in those dis- tricts. >14 MILLIU‘N LOGS swnrr AWAY. ”â€" One Reached Shore After Boat Up- set, but Returned to Aid Other.

They all tell stories of three 'days’ and nights’ fight with fire, nothing but a, bucket brigade being available. Several times they" thought that the fire had been conquered, but each time it sprang up again and a weary fight was resumed. The wind almost blew acyclone, and men who had been through the Porcupine fire be- gan to make for the railway tracks, fearing for their lives. Finally it got beyond all control, and every- onc took refuge on the Transconâ€" tinental Railway tracks. Mr. M. J O’Brien, of the firm of O’Brien, McDougall and O’Gorman, who have their construction headquarâ€" ters at Hearst, Took all homeless people to his camps at Pit 7, where they were fed and the women and children housed. ' They pass-ed the night and next day there until the relief train arrived in the midst of smoke and flame and torrid heat. Hearst is a. town of between six and eight hundred inhabitant-s most- 1y foreigners. ‘Mosrt of the dwellings were built of wood and a short time ago. There are also, however, the divisional offices of- the Transcontinâ€" ental Railway, 3. large cement round house, the offices of M. J.
