WEDNESDAY, Nov. 8 Vancouver, which is famous abroad for its lead in embodying the principle of the single tax in civic affairs, is also keeping well abreast of the advancing times by appointing a charter committee to consider the commission form of government, and draw up the necessary amendments to the city charter. These have just been submitted to the Mayor and Council and a special session of the Finance Committee has been called to discuss the proposed amendments. The proposal is made that Vancouver should pass from council government to commission government at the end of the ensuing year. The amendments provide for the abolition of all wards and the election at large of a mayor and four councilmen at the January election in 1913, the mayor and two councilmen having the highest number of votes to hold office for four years, the other two councilmen to hold office for two years, and thereafter two councilmen to be elected every two years, the mayor and councilmen to have the same qualifications as now prescribed. The various affairs of the city administration are to be divided up among the five members, each to be the head of a department or a number of departments, for which he is responsible, and to devote their time and attention to city work. Daily executive sessions are to be held, taking up the work now done by the council committees, and weekly legislative sessions, taking up the work now done by the council in session. The salary of the mayor is fixed at $10,000 a year and the councilmen at $7500 each to give bonds, in a surety company, for $25,000. Nominations for mayor and councilmen are to be made at a mass meeting to be held in the city hall, any number of candidates being allowed. On the ballot first, second and third choice is provided for. The initiative, referendum and recall are provided for. A petition signed by 25 per cent of the electors voting tor mayor at the last election, proposing any law, shall compel the council to pass that law within 40 days or put it up to a vote referendum of the people, and a 15 per cent petition shall likewise put the question up to a vote of the people, but not call a special election for that purpose, the matter being taken up at the regular election. ¢ By-laws passed by the council shall not take effect for ten days after passage, and if within the ten days a petition signed by 25 per cent of the voters protest, then the matter shall be submitted to a vote of the people, or the law be repealed by the council. The council may also submit any by-law without such petition. On a petition signed by 25 per cent of the electors voting at the last election, or 12 1-2 per cent of the voters’ list, to recall a member, on grounds stated in the petition, the council shall order a special election, at which the incumbent shall be a candidate unless he voluntarily withdraw, and other candidates may come in and the election be conducted as in the case of regular elections. Not more than one election shall be held in any six months. PASSING COMMENT The comedy of the Council and tke City Solicitor engaged in a mutual admira- tions over the hydro-electric by-law is one of the funniest things in municipal history. lt was calculated to impress the ignorant. The true nature of the by-law is seen in the fact that it requires a private bill to validate it. At present it is not valid. The bank’s solicitor showed his opinion of the rea] nature of the by-law, when he made the provision that if the Executive Council should withdraw their promise to pass special legislation ratifying the by-law, that the bank should have a petition of right. After moving a special vote of thanks to the City Solicitor for getting his hydro-electric by-law tinkered up, the Council should move a vote of thanks to the City Treasurer and the City Collector for not decamping with the city funds, while the Council is neglecting to get fidelity bonds forthem. ‘ Sensational Exposure of the WHITE SLAVE TRAFFIC in motion pictures THE MAJESTIC THEATRE TO-NIGHT With illustrated Lecture by Mr. Jack Martin.

All others had gone. The officers were leaving the ship in order of sent- ority, the juniors first. Just as the quartette were about to swing clear of the ship the captain grasped Pyne’s hand. “Thank you, iad,” he said, and away they went. There were left on the vessel the third, second, and first officers, the purser, and the captain. The others wanted the captain to come with them. He resisted, held out for his right to be the last to quit a ship he had com- manded for more than twenty years, and hoarsely forbade any further argu- ment. Very unwillingly, they left him haul- ing alone at the rope, though their predecessors, knowing the need of it, helped vigorously from the gallery. Indeed, it was with difficulty that Pyne was held back from returning with the descending rope. They told him he was mad to dream of such a piece of folly,_and perforce he de- sisted. But when the captain deliberately cast off the deck-pulley from which the rope had been manipulated they knew that the boy had read his soul. The now useless cordage dangling from the gallery was caught by the wind and sea and sent whipping off to lea- ward. Brand, brought from the lantern by the hubbub of shouting, came out, fol lowed by Constance. He suggested, as a last resource, that they should endeavor to fire a line across the ves+ sel by means of a rocket. They agreed to try, for the spectacle of the captain, standing bareheaded on al) that was left of the bridge, moved them to a pitch of frenzy not often seen in an assemblage of Anglo Saxons, and especially of sailors. Brand turned to procure the rocket, but a loud cry caused him to delay, The expected wave had come, the ves- sel was smothered in a vortex of foam, the tall fore-mast tottered and fell, and when the water subsided again all that was visible of the great stea er was some portion of her hull an the solidly built bow, which was not wrenched from the keel-plate until another nour had passed. The agcnized cry of a strong man is a woful thing. Constance, by reason of the gathering at the side of the gallery, was unable to see all that was taking place. But the yell which went By Louis Tracy something out of the common, even on this night of thrills, had occurred, “What is it, dad?” she asked, as her father came to her, “The end of the ship,” he said. “The captain has gone with her.” “Oh dear, why: wasn’t he saved?” “I think he refused to desert his ship. His heart was broken, I expect, Now, Connie, duty first.” Indeed, she required no telling. each of the ship-wrecked men entered the lantern, she handed him a glass and told him exactly how many flights of stairs he had to descend. But cocoa and biscuits would be brought soon, she explained. Greatly amazed, but speechless for the most part, the men obeyed her directions. One of the last to claim her atten: tion was the young American, Mr, Pyne. Her face lit up pleasurably when she saw him. of you,” she said. “My sister has ask: ed me several times if you had arrived, and I imagined that I must have miss- ed you by some chance.” Now all this was Greek to him, or nearly so. Indeed, had it been intelll- gible Greek, he might have guessed its purport more easily. Holding the glass in his hand he looked at her in frank, open-eyed won: der. To be hailed so gleefully by a good-looking girl whom he had never to his knowledge set eyes on, was somewhat of a mystery, and the puz zle was made all the more difficult by the fact that she had discarded the weather-proof accoutrements needed when she first ventured forth on the gallery. “I’m rea] glad you're pleased. My name is Charles A. Pyne,” he said, slowly. It was now Constance’s turn to be bewildered. Then the exact situation aawued on her. “How stupid of me,” she cried. “Ot course you don't recognize me again, My sister and I happen to be alone with my father on the rock to-night, We were with him on the balcony when you acted so bravely, You see, the light shone clear on your face.” “TI'rn glad it’s shining on yours now,” he said. “You must go two floors below this,” said she, severely, “I will bring you some cocoa and a biscuit as quickly as possible.” “I am not a bit tired,” he comment ed, still looking at her. “That is more than I can say,” she answered, “but I am go delighted that we mann ed to save s0 many poor people.” ‘ “How many?” “Beventy-eight. But I dare not ask you now how many are lost, It would make me cry, and | have no time for tears. Will you really help to carry a tray?” “Just try me.” At the top of the stairs Constance galied io her tather: “Anything you want, dad?” “Yes, dear. Find out the chief offt- cer, and send him to me. He can eat end drink here whilst we talk.” CHAPTER VIII.

Most of the sufferers had received their wounds either in the saloon oF | by collision with the cornice of the | lighthouse. The worst accident was & broken arm, the most alarming &— pase of cerebral concussion. Other | Injuries consisted, for the most part, | } of cuts and bruises. | | Unfortunately, when the ship struck, | the surgeon had gone aft to attend to | an engineer whose hand was crushed | as the result of some frantic lurch caused by the hurricane; hence the floctor was lost with the first batch of victims. Enid discovered that among the few steerage pasengers saved was a man who had gained some experience in a field-hospital during the campaign in Cuba. Aided by the | plain directions supplied with the | medicine chest of the lighthouse, the ex-hospital orderly bad done wonders already. “All I want, miss,” he explained, in answer to Constance’s question, “is some water and some linen for ban- dages. The lint outfit in the chest Is not half sufficient.” She vanished, to return quickly with | a sheet and a pair of scissors. | “Now,” she said to Mr. Pyne, “if you come with me I will send you, back with a pail of water.” She took him to the kitchen where Enid, aided by a sailor, pressed into | service, was dispensing cocoa and bis- cuits. Pyne, who remained in the stairway, went off with the water and | Constance’s lantern. The interior of the lighthouse was utterly dark. To move without a light, and with no prior knowledge of its internal ar- rangements, was positively danger- ous. All told, there were seven lamps of various sizes available. Brand had one, four were distributed throughout the apartments tenanted by the sur vivors of the wreck, two were retain- ed for transit purposes, and the men shivering in the entrance passage had no light at all. Constance took Enid’s lantern in order to discover the whereabouts of Mr. Emmett, the first officer, the tray- carrying sailor offering to guide her | to him. When Pyne came back he found| Enid in the dark and mistook her for Constance. “They want at the door. “Some more what?” she demanded. It seemed no time for elegant diction. | Her heart jumped each time the sea sprang at the rock. It seemed to be so much worse in the dark. “Water,” said he. “Dear me. I should have thought) everybody would be fully satisfied in| that respect.” He held up the lantern. “Well, that’s curious,” he cried. “I imagined you were the other young lady. The water is needed in the hos- pital.” “Why didn't you say so?” she snap- ped, being in reality very angry with herself for her flippancy. She gave him a full pail and he quitted her. Constance, having delivered her father’s message to Mr. Emmett, was greeted with a tart question when she re-entered the kitchen: “Why on earth did’nt you tell me that young man was attending to the | injured people? Is he a doctor?” some more,” he cried | “I think not. What happened?” “He came for a second supply of water and nearly bit my head off.” “Oh, Enic’' «4 am sure he did not mean anything. Didn’t you recognize him? It was he who climbed the mast and flung the rope to us.” “There!” said Enid, “I've gone and done it. Honestly, you know, it was I who was rude. He will think me a perfect cat.” “That isn't what people are saying,” exclaimed Mr. Pyne, whose approach was deadened by the outer noise. “There's a kind of general idea float- ing round that this locality is an an-| nex of heaven, with ministering angela in attendance.” In the half light of the tiny lamps could see Enid’s scarlet face, There was a moment's silence, and this very self-possessed youth spoke again. “The nice things we all have to tell you will keep,” he said. “Would you | pacned aimost to suffocation. | matter “shall I ever forget that scene in the — - —— This, if harmful in one respect, was benefi- cial in another. The mere animal warmth of so many human beings was grateful after the freezing effect of the gale on people literally soaked to the skin, The girl, not unmoved by curiosity, held the light so that it illumined Mrs. Vansittart. A woman of forty, no how good-looking and well- preserved she may be, is in a sorry plight under such conditions. Con- stance saw a beautiful face, deathly white and haggard, yet animated and clearly chiseled. The eyes were large and lustrous, the mouth firm, the nose and chin those of a Greek statue. Just now there were deep lines across the base of the high forehead. The thin lips, allied to a transient hawk-like gleam in the prominent eyes, gave a momentary glimpse of a harsh, per haps cruel disposition. A charming smile promptly dispelled this fleeting impression. Instantly Constance was aware of having seen Mrs, Vansittart before. So vivid was the fanciful idea that she became tongue-tied, “Do you want me?” asked the stranger, with a new interest, and still smiling. Constance tound herself twondering if the smile were not cul tivated to hide that faintly caught suggestion of the bird of prey. But the question restored her mental poise “Only to say that Mr. Pyne—" she began. “Charlie! Is he saved?” Mrs. Vansitteart certainly had faculty of betraying intense Interest. ‘The girl attributed the nervous start, the quick color which tinged the white cheeks, to the natural anxiety of a woman who stood in such approximate degree of kin to the young American. “Oh, yes,” said the girl, with ready sympathy. “Don't you know that all of you owe your lives to his daring? He asked me to—to say he was all right, and—-that he hoped you were not utterly collapsed.” . The addendum was a kindly one, No doubt, Mr. Pyne had meant her to convey. such a message. Mrs. Vansit- tart, it was evident, had received a shock.

With surprising energy she caught the girl’s arm. “Who are you?” she whispered, “Tell me, child, who are you?” “My father is the lighthouse-keep er,” said Constance. “I am here quite by chance. I—”" “But your name! name?” “Constance Brand.” What is your “Brand, did you say ? And your fa) ther’s name?” “Stephen Brand. Really, Mrs. Van sittart, you must try to compose your ‘self, You are over-wrought, and—” ' She was about to say “feverish.” Indeed, that was a mild word. The strange glare in Mrs. Vansittart’s eyes amazed her. She shrank away bul ‘only for an instant. With a deep sigh the lady sank back on the pillow and fainted. Constance was then frightened be yond question. She feared that the seizure might be a serious one, under the circumstances. To her great re lief, another woman, who could not help overhearing the conversation and witnessing its sequel, came to ‘rescue. ! “Don't be alarmed,” she said. “Mrs Vanaittart is very highly strung. She fainted in the saloon. She does noi realize that Mr. Pyne not only saved her, but nearly every woman here when the door was broken open. Now don’t you worry, my dear, I will look after her.

' “No, no!” I don’t wish that. You might tell her I am all right. That is the limit. And—may I make a sugges- tion?” “Pray do.” “It will help considerable if the wo- men-folk take it in turn to get into the beds or bunks. Then, some of their linen could be dried at the stove. I will take charge of that part of the business, if I may. Otherwise, some of them will die.” The girls agreed that this was a cap- ital idea. Constance went upstairs. In the first room she inquired: “Is Mrs, Vansittart here?” “Yes,” said a sweet but rather quer- ulous voice. A lady, who had alread ted the lower bunk, raise an elbow.
