MANY INDIANS CONFIRMED “During the ooligan fishing In- dians gather from all the villages on the Naas River at Fishery Bay which is about fifteen miles up this river from the coast. The work of catching these small fish which are very oily, and boiling them to get the grease lasts about seven weeks. Archdeacon Colli- son has for some time past been giving religious instructions to the natives gathered for this fish- ing, and on Good Friday after- noon Bishop Du Vernet confirmed in St; Peter's Church, Fishery Bay, fifty-four candidates pre- sented by the Archdeacon, There were thirty young men and twenty four young women, 17 came from Kincolith, 20 from Lakkalzap,’ ¢ from Aiyansh, 4 from Gitladamiks and 2 from Underleaf or Gwinoha ——all villages on the Naas river: 3 came from Gitwangool, and 2 from Gitwangak, villages on or near the upper Skeena river, The old road across from the upper Skeena to the upper Naas used to be called the “Grease Trail” be- cause of the hundreds who travel- led jt to secure the ooligan grease. The government has opened a shorter road from Gitwangak by way of the Gitwangool valley to the Naas river so that the old trail by way of the Kispiox valley above Hazelton is mow seldom taken. 25 cents pays for a dandy sup- per at the Russian Booth tonight. ———— ere Bock Beer on tap at the Savoy Hotel. 97.

CARNIVAL OF THE ALLIES WAS TREMENDOUS SUCCESS EVERY BOOTH DID HUGE BUSINESS AND RESULTS FAR EX- | CROWDS UNTIL LAST After six o’cloek last evening levery road led to Acropolis Hill, lwhere Prince Rupert held high carnival in the Txhibition Build- jing, in aid of the Red Cross fund. Along towards eight o'clock, when the Metlakatlah band marched up to the building and took its place jon the stage everybody in town |seemed to be there, young and lold, though the latter term is | scarcely correct for all were jyoung again. The interior of the building jpresented one of the gayest spec- itacles ever devised by the ladies lof Prince Rupert and the making of the decorations for the various |}booths and the placing of them in position must have taken many |days of hard work on the part of | the ladies in charge and _ their willing assistants. The Scandinavian booth, loeated upstairs in the right hand corner jon entering, was draped with |Ganadian flags, Union Jacks and Prince Rupert's colors with ever- |greens covering up the woodwork. Judging by the tables loaded with lie daintiest things to eat, Mrs. Sam Johnson, Mrs, Olof Hanson, |Mrs. A. Akerberg and the other | members of the Valhalla Society must have been very busy for idays. Most of the dainties were BY FLOOD Al AT SUDBURY «i: tinetly Scandinavian. A notice- able feature on one of the tables was a flag staff made of solid brass by Andy Akerberg. This alone must have represented days of work. Every detail was perfect down to the little stantions around the base ‘and the encircling chain. At the opposite corner upstairs was a corner of Japan, where Mrs, Cambie and her assistants dispensed tea to visitors. The ladies in their garb and in the decorations of their booth were very successful in their picturing _lof the land of the chrysanthe- imum. Large chrysanthemums were everywhere while cherry bldssoms filled the air, A beauti- fully executed Japanese hanging y, basket was a particularly bright _|spot. This was the work of Mrs. Kanaya of Skeena City. Just below the Japanese sec- tion was Italy, under the manage- ment of Mrs. J, EB. Merryfield and a host of willing helpers. Here FUNERAL SERVICE Undertakers again the decorations were of j the prettiest, the walls being Phillipson | covered with evergreens in which 'shades, while the windows were y,/formed into cute little diamond panes of Italy. During the even- ing a bevy of beautiful Italian Girls sang and danced while each member of the party seemed to be an expert on the guitar, man- doline or violin, The musical director was Harry Harvey whe was brilliantly got up as a Span- ish Don, Outside, Signor Cari- booso entreated the crowd in stentorian tones to patronise the cabaret and his efforts were not CEEDED EXPECTATIONS—FLOwR THACNGED WITH AFTER MIDNIGHT NIGHT in vain. The signor was none other than Harry Evans. Next to Italy was India, which had been most tastefully produced by the girls chapter of the I, O. D. E. under the management of Miss King. The ladies were beau- tifully garbed in Indian costume and each must have represented a princess. There was a monster elephant there and many other Indian features. The paintings which lined the back of the booth, which were the work of Miss Iason, were greatly admired. Next came little Belgium, un- der the management of Mrs. J. M. Clancy. Here, the prevailing tones were the black, yellow and red which have become so fa- miliar since that epoch-making August day. In_ttlis booth, the ladies offered everything imagin- able in confectionery, daintily packed. Canada, under the care of Mrs. William Manson, was next door and here there was a splendid display of the handiwork of the local Indians who gave of their best in basket work, ete, for the occasion. As a side-show there was the famous heirloom from the Naas, the ‘“‘potlach” coat of days long since gone, It was a remarkable little garment of coon skin with cariboo thongs tipped with the hooves of the mountain goat. Great Britain, with a stall for each country, was under the care of Mrs. Morrow, Mrs. Frizzell, Mrs. Henning and Mrs. Morrissey. With a profusion of Union Jacks surmounted by the bull-dog standing guard this corner was typically British. In Wales they displayed home cooking which must have tempted many pur- chasers, in Ireland, which was the true color of Ireland, there was an assortment of fancy work which no lady could pass, while Scotland and England was a real old country store where JackVen- ables, Walter Harper and R. E., Benson were abie assistants. France, with Mrs. Besner in charge, was another bower of beauty, with the tri-color every- where and a profusion of roses looking out from every corner, while “Vive La France’ was blazoned across the front, Here there was a wheel of fortune which for once was not-consider- ed a game of chance, and an as- sortment of useful and ormamen- tal articles which anyone might have for ten cents, if they picked the right number. Next door, Mrs. Neil MacKay, as a Portuguese fortune-teller did her best to direct the lives of all who came to visit her. A little way along Ben Self was doing a roaring trade in a game he called “Honest John.” Ben was freely offering dollars for ten cents each and found many takers, (Continued on Page Two)
