C, says: Having settled the Chinese prob lem by the enforcement of n head tax, British Columbia is now face to faco with a Hindu Invasion. Within the last three months no less than 4,000 natives of India have settled in Vancouver, and every ship from the Orient is rapidly bringing hundreds more. With the nrrival of each shipload tho scale of prices of manual labor goes steadily down, and from nil parts of British Colum bia has arisen tho cry for drnstic measures to dam this flood of Ori ental labor. Viewed from an economic stand iamM-frw-M bor sheds at loss than onc-hnlf tho wage demanded by a white man. The next steamor from the Orient brought 250 more, and since then they have been nrivlng steadily, each now consignment being swallowed up In tho lumber business. Old British Soldiers. One of tho interesting points about the Hindu Invasion of Canada Is that tho Invaders are for tho most part old soldiers of the British em pire. Many of them still wear their uniforms. They dcclnro that tho poor pay of tho British government is responsible for their leaving their homes and earning a livelihood in an alien land. They say that it is " " i - - point, tho Hindus are considered as Impossible for a natlvo soldier of In bad as the Chinese. They do not possess tho finalities necessary for tho making of good cltizens, they Invest no money In tho country, they reduce tho prico of lnbor, and their intention Is to leave the country as Boon as they have amassed what in their eyes is n competency. Then, again, they aro a serious menace to tho health of tho community, as they are entirely Ignorant of tho most common laws of sanitation. Time and again the health ofllclais of Vancouver have been forced to take active measures to prevent tho spread of disease resulting from the dirt and filth of tho Hindu quarter. No White Immigration. This influx of Hindu labor is tho direct result of tho scarcity of la borers on tho western coast of Can ada. At tho commencement of tho season tho lumbermen of British Columbia discovered that they could not secure enough help, ns tho tide of white immigration from tho east stopped t Calgary, Alberta, this being ns far west as tho Canadian Tactile Railroad company nllowcd its colonist rates. The British inter ests of British Columbia asked that tho rato be allowed to tho coast, and in various ways tried to secure It, but tho Canadian Pacific Railroad company refused to listen to the de mands. A few mouths ago the citizens of Vancouver wero surprised to see a number of Hindus walking their Btreots. At first they wore tho ob jects of curiosity nnd mirth, but these feelings suddenly disappeared when it was learned thnt tho Hindus wero working In tho mills niul.lum- dla to servo any length of tlmo In tho British sorvico without running into debt, and it is to clear these debts that they aro now working on British soil for less money than the British subjects demands. There is a question ns to whether tho Hindus can bo discriminated against as was done in the caso of tho Chinese. There Is a Dominion law whereby any clnss of undorsir ablo immigrants can bo refused per mission to land on Canailian shores; but ns these Hindus aro British sub jects, they are, according to British law, entitled to all tho privileges of those who aro living under tho folds of tho Union Jack, and tho British Imperial government may take a hand In tho matter. May Cross the Lino. - The question Is now being discuss ed in England, but there does not seem to be much sympathy for the Canadians . there. The Manchester Guardian, one of tho most influen tial of the provincial papers of the United Kingdom, says that tho best way to solvo tho wliolo question would bo for tho Canadians to pay tho Hindu ns much ns ho docs the whito man and thus get whito labor. In tho meantime, the Hindus are flocking Into Canada, and British Columbia in no uncertain terms. There Is dnngcr that tho Hindus will, in a short time, cross tho line into tho state of Washington and flood tho western coast of tho United States, just as tho Chlucso have dono. Up to tho present time, how ever, they nre needed only too badly In Htitlsli Columbia, and there is em ployment for all who come hero. .Mjj,ytjy-jjnjj:ji'jem.i Heart Weakness The action of the heart de pends upon the heart nerves and muscles. When from any cause they become weak or ex hausted, and fail to furnish sufficient power, the heart flut ters, palpitates, skips beats; and in its effort to keep up its work, causes pain and distress, such as smothering spells, short breath, fainting, pain around heart, arm and shoul ders. The circulation is im peded, and the entire system suffers from lack of nourish ment. Dr. Miles' Heart Cure makes a heart strong and vigorous by strengthening these nerves and muscles. "I had palpitation and pain nround my heart, nnd tho doctors said Jt was Incurablp. I don't believe It now, for after taklnp six bottles of Dr. Miles' Heart Cure, three bottles of thoNcrvlne nnd threo boxes of tho r-ferVQ and I,ler I'HIs I nm entirely cured, and feel bettor than I liavo for llvo years, and It Is nil duo to theso remedies.

More cabs came; moro people; venders begajj to come nnd go, with sugar-and-water on trays, oranges, etc. Small Italian boys, lrrepressl blo like any others, crawled through tho fenco Into tho review grounds nnd wero chased back by authority on horseback, nnd crawled through again tho moment authority passed on. A care worn Italian, looking like a brigand, hut evidently the mildest of men in tho bosom of his family, tried to keep four llttlo girls and two boys In order on tho grass, and was continually overrun nnd checkmated by thorn Instead. They woro only quieted by tho clear sound of tho royal trumpets singing over tho field, nnd tho murmur, "II re! II re!" which heralded tho ontranco of King Victor Emmnnuel nnd his olllcers. Tho rovlow stnnd, draped in tho Italian colors, wns at tho end of tho field: but whether tho bomb throwing nt Madrid at King Alfon so's wedding, three dnya before, had made royalty doubt tho wisdom of any fixed program, or whether n cen tral position suited' tho reviewing better, tho king never 'went nenr It.

Tho Spectator had noticed an cntlro lack of enthusiasm is tho popo was borne through the Vatican to a canonization tho Sun day before, but had thought tho sparse waving of handkerchiefs a mero sign that piety was on tho ane in tho Roman mind.
