To the Bishop of Caledonia we extend our heartfelt sympathy in his 'Bereavement through the passing of his Godly wife and helpmate. In ex-pressing ihjr sincere condolences we Know we are reflecting the sentiments of the thousands of friends of the good Bishop and that saintly woman who was his wife. After months of suffering borne with patience and fortitude, merciful release has come and the Bishop, in his faith and belief, will be most comforted by the knowledge that the time is not one for sorrowing and grief but for relief and satisfaction that she has now gone to the reward in Heaven which, after-her good and useful life here with us, she so richly deserves. Resident of Prince Rupert for upwards of thirty years, Mrs. Rix, although quiet and unassuming, nevertheless was a force in the good works of her distinguished husband from those early pioneer days when he came here as the priest of the parish to eventually win the highest office in the gift of the diocese. She was his charming and effective aide and her good works, like his, will long be kindly remembered and reflected. The esteem and affection in which she was held went far beyond the bounds of her own church for those who cherished her friendship and her esteem belonged to all the denominations and the faiths. Her charming and endearing person ality will be sadly missed by the many friends who loved her so deeply and so well. City Pays Itself Large Part of Bond Interest Seated on either side of a table-in the city treasurer's outer office yesterday afternoon, City Clerk H. D. Thain and his assistant, Miss Audrey Wrathall, presented a picture of plutocracy, ripe enough to inspire the wrath of any good proletariat. They were counting coupons. However, ,at that point, their similarity to plutocrats ended for the bonds to which the coupons had originally been attached were not at hand nor was that universal symbol of the coupon-.illpper a pair of scissors in evidence. Mr. Thain and Miss- Wrathall were merly doing a chore, classi fying coupons clipped from City of Prince Rupert foiir percent bonds which had been returned to the city' for recording. Each coupon in the pile had once been worth $20. To the uninitiated eye the value that mountain of chits once possessed made it impressive even in its defunct state. Inquiry revealed that it represented a portion of the $7p,000 annual Interest payment on $1,-750,000 In city bonds, refunded in 1935 and'due to mature in 1955. The thought of the city paying out $70,000 a year in interest on an ancient obligation is not quite as formidable as it sounds, for in the last few years the city has made a point of buying up as many of the bonds as it was 'able. At the present time It owns some $700,000 worth. These are deposited with the Minister of Finance in Victoria as part of the city's sinking fund and on them the city Is paying four percent interest against their maturity Instead of paying it to private owners of the bonds.
