The Trouble Between Vessel Owners andNative Hunters Explained By

Captain Walbran.

According to Captain Walbran , of theD.G.S . Quadra , just returned from aspecial cruise along the west coast ofthis island , the delay in the sailing oftbe sealing schooners this season hasbeen chiefly owing to the conflicting

vnryingIromQuadra left Kyuquot on the 6th , theDora Sieward was on the point of leaing Djeklisset , Ououkinsh inlet ,though before the Quadra arrived atKyuquot the Indian crew of this vesselhad positively refused to join on theterms stated in ber articles . The Otto ,City of San Diego and Favorite , on thesame date expected to sail on the nextor following day . The Penelope leftKyuquot on Sunday th '4th instant . AtA-hntieat , Catalina island , the Arietesand Zillah May were to leave on theevening of the 7th , the day the Quadrasailed from there .A court was held at A-hatisat on the

Quadra , before Captain Walbran] , atwhich seven Indians , members of thecrew of the Arietis , were charged by

[re.1usirigthe trial and taken into considerationby the court , were severely reprimand .

ed and ordered to join their vessel ,which arrangement was carried out .Owing to this speedy means of trial andsatisfactory conclusion no loss of timewas incurred by the vessel , and whatmight have entailed expense on theowners avoided .On the afternoon of the 6th the Beat

rice was seen under sail off Nootka , andthe Ainoko andEnterprise off Hesquiat .The Fawn left Clayoquot on the afternoon of the 8th , whilst the Quadra wasthere . Captain Walbran believes thisis the last vessel to get away ...

TilE GRANDEST CIRCUS

What more glorious in the amusementwet Id than the circus ; what memory ofchildhood so hallowed with sweet reomembrances , so enshrined in our happiest thoughts than the hours we spentat our first circus ?We can close our eyes and see our first

show now , as plainly as wo saw it thenmany years ago , and albeit the blood inour veins courses not so swiftly and ourretrospective view loses its vivid color .ing lent our wonder-rounded eyes in In-

nocent¬

, happy childhood ; still do wefeel the keenest pleasure and live overagain that one bright day as a careless ,

fascinated , enraptured boy . We cannotimagine n father so calloushearted , eolost to all that made his boyhood daysgladsome ones when the circus cntne(around , who could in his manhood refuse the boy who pleads " Please takeme , papa ? " Who could think of de-priving

¬

. him of[ the pleasure of seeing time

circus coming as The Walter L. MainEnormous R.R . Shows , tripple circus ,five continent menagerie , real Rpmanhippodrome and trained wild beastshow , and going to give two grand performances , the first at 2 in the afternoon and the second at 8 in the evenlag , hero in Victoria on the 12 and 13
