The air chokes me.It r** k# of treachery.Come, get your cloak, and”— “Hush!** she exclaimed suddenly.In the silence that followed 1 heard steps on the path outside, a loud knock and then the tramping of feet and the sound of voices in the hall.Kate sprang to the door which commanded a partial view of the hall and, opening it can fi»>usly, looked out.“Is it the prince?” I asked breath lessly.“No,” she faltered, “it is Andrew Macintyre, with half a dozen strange men—coarse, brutal looking wretcheg, with swords and pistols.Oh.Frank, what is to become of you?He hate# you.He told me so today.He threatened what he would do to you if 1 did not give you up.Fraser will tell him you are here, and he—they may kill you.Hush ! I hear his foot on the stairs.He is coming here.You must hide—somewhere—anywhere—in the cupboard-quick, get into the cupboard.” “Bat Fraser will tell him I am here,” I expostulated.“Perhaps not,” she exclaimed, pushing me in her excitement toward th# door of the cupboard.“They are not so friendly as they appear to be.Quick— quick -he is coining.” Yielding reluctantly to her entreaties, I stepped inside, leaving the door slight ly ajar so that I might see what passed.Then she sat down at a harpsichord and began to sing a rollicking Jacobite ballad a# gayly and gallantly as if the prince had been present wdth all the clans around him.She was still singing when the door open *d.and Andrew Macintyre came in “Ah.Kate,” said he.and I fancied I could detect a faint sneer in the tones of his voice, “I thought I hoard you singing.Upon ipy soul, your voice sends the blood dancing through my veins.Tis more inspiriting than a bugle call.If you would ride at the head of the troops singing your battle songs, with the white cockade on your breast, the king would soon enjoy his own again.With your voice to lead him to victory who would not live or die with Charlie?” His eyes dwelt on her with a look that made mo grind my teeth and grip the hilt of my sword.I would have given all I possessed to spring forward and settle the matter with the cold steel, but I knew that with a shout he could bring his cutthroats upon me, and my death would leave Kate defenseless in his hands.Kate was ever quick witted and ready of speech, but the sure knowledge of his treachery and the tragic situation in which she was placed seemed to freeze the words on her lips.She bent her white face over the harpsichord, and I saw her fingers trembling as they wandered over t’ o keys.I think ’twas the bitterest moment of my life.I could neither get her away from th# house nor warn the prince.I was not, I think, devoid of courage and enjoyed some reputation as a swordsman, and yet I was absolutely helpless.I could do nothing that was not utterly reckless and foolhardy, and stood there grinding my teeth in impotent fury while this loathsome spy and traitor made love to my betrothed.Macintyre glanced at the clock.“Some few minutes to the hour at which his royal highness promised to be here,” he continued in the same tone of subdued mockery.“Let us have another song, Kate.Let ns have something to stir the blood, something about the gathering of the clans and the fluttering of the kilts, the flash of the broadswords and the skirl of the pipes.’Twill raise the prince’s spirits if he hears you He was dashed by the coldness with which ho was received at Lady Primrose's.We must give him a heartier reception tonight.” I think from the malicious twinkle in his eyes that he know she suspect ed him and was playing with her as a cat with a mouse.Her cheeks flushed, and I thought she was about to give an angry reply, but with an effort she controlled herself and began to play a spirited prelude.But at that moment he held up his hand.“Hush,” ho said, “I hear voices at thed»H'>r.I think he must have arrived.” He turned away and stepped hurriedly to the window.In a moment Kate was on her feet, darted an appealing look at me.pointed to him and rushed to the door.I was in the room* sword in hand, before she reached it.But I was no quicker than he.I saw the gleam of his eyes and the flash of his sword before I was half way across the room.He parried the savage lunge I made at him and, leaping aside with the agility of a cat, rushed after Kate.Through the door and along the passage she went like a deer, he close on her heels ami 1 on his.When she reached the stair*, ®he seemed to fly down them, and beyond her I caught a glimpse of th«i prince stepping into the hall.“Go back”’ she cried.“Go back?You are betrayed! Go back!” But she was too late.Clang went th# heavy door, out from the adjoining room# sprang half a dozen men with naked swords, and there in the middle of tbs hall, surrounded by a ring of steel, with the sobbing girl at his feet, caught like a rat in a trap, stood Princ# Charlie.Whig as I was.I cannot describe the Sick fseling of pity and shams that overwhelmed me at the sight.’Twould have been a fitting doath for tbs hero of Preston pans and Falkirk todie sword in hand on the battlefield, but it was heartbreaking to see him betrayed and trapped by this scurvy crew of spies and traitors, and still keener was my pity for the innocent child who was sobbing at his fefct, crushed with shame that her devotion to his cause should have been made the bait to lure him to the scaffold.He stood perfectly still, pale and with flashing eyes, but without a trace of fear “Well, Mr.Macintyre,” paid he, “this is a strange welcome.May I beg you to inform me what I am to understand by it?” Brought face to face with the man he had betrayed, even Macintyre lost his nerve, though he tried to brazen it out.“You may understand”— he began, and then his eyes fell and he looked moodily at the floor.“I think the situation explains itself,” ho said gloomily.The prince drew himself np and looked at Macintyre with unutterable scorn and contempt.“It does indeea.” said he.“I have had to do with you suppose that I have walked blindfold into your clumsy trap?Look around you.” Almost before I realized what had taken place I saw Macintyre turn white, and heard the sword drop clattering from his nerveless fingers, while his accomplices glanced round about seeking a way of escape.All eyes had been fixed on the prince, so that the men who now stood sword in hand at every door and at the head of every passage had come upon us unheard and unseen.At a glance I recognized the faces of several well known Jacobite gentlemen, both Englishmen and highlanders, and I saw at once that Macintyre had been cleverly caught in his own trap, entangled in the very meshes of the we!) he had spun to entrap the prince.These were the men who had lurked in the garden, who had stealthily entered the house, and the author of thisplot within a plot—Donald Fraser—who had betrayed the betrayer, was now leering triumphantly at Macintyre from his post behind the door.Macintyre caught a glimpse of his grinning face, and his eyes gleamed with diabolical fury.“You hound!” h«* exclaimed, “this is your work.” “Yes.” said the prince coolly, •‘you forget what mo t of your kind would do well to renemher, that it is as easy to set a spy upon a spy as upon an hon est man, and much easier to fin 1 thos • who will b 'tray him.I pretended to fall into your trap in order to trap you.lest gttfxl friends of mine should sulT* r in future by your treachery.It would he but bare ju.tice to hang every man of you, but your lives shall be spared for the present if you instantly lay down your arms.Take their weapons, gentlemen.” The conspirators wore so thoroughly cowed that tin y gave up their arms without a straggle.In the meantime Kate had whispered a few words to the prince, anil he beckoned me toward him.“I find tli it l owe you a debt of gratitude for your conduct this night, ” he said graciously, “and I sincerely trust that at some future time it may lie within my power to repay you.” Then he turned to Kate.“As for such loyalty as yours.Miss Gordon,” h ¦ said, “a poor exile has no fitting reward.Nay.I think the only reward I can give you is tn release you from, further service to a race so unfortunate as mine.Pardon me ” He took the white cockade from her breast and handed it to me.“See;” he continued.“I give it into the keeping of your future husband, and I pray that you will not wear it again unless he himself pins it upon your breast.My errand here is accomplished, ami tonight i leave London.Sloth and avarice have eaten away the loyalty of those who should have flocked to my standard.They wish to save their estates and will not thrust their own heads into danger, though they would be willing enough that the poor high-land lads should leave their bones on another Culloden m»>or.But I will hav© no more useless bloodshed, please God, and so sail for France till better timea Farewell ** Kate could not speak for the sobs that choked her.and I—well.I feel no shame at the confession—knelt and kissed his hand with tears in my eyes.'Twas the last we ever saw of Prino# Charlie, the bravest and most unfortunate of all th© Stuarts.Toward Macintyre and his accomplices he behaved with his usual clemency.They were release»! when it was too late for them to interfere with his departure.1 have still the white cockade Kate wore on her breast that night, hut I think even she has lost all desire to wear it again.f«>r if what we hear of tne once gallant prince be true his best friends might wish that h# had died at the head of his brave highlanders on Tulloden moor.Little girl to brother—“Why are the boys who carry the golf c!ube cdled caddies.” Brother—“Because they carry the t#o ” Sympathetic Friend—“And did your husband die peacefully ?” Sorrowing Widow—“Oh, I’m afraid not.We had three doctors.” Schools, colleges, professors, tutor#, a 1 needful as they are, yet sink into insignificance as agents of culture compared with a good library where one can commune with th# bMt ¦tiuds of all ages.^'r Wood’* Fhoipkodtoi.The Oreit Engluh Remedy Sold and recommended by %n dru»zjn#t* *n Canada.Only rell able medicine discovered.Six *p>ick>Tgm blinds i# dark green.It i» always recommended by both doctors and ocu-li#ts.D.trk b'ue is next beat, but not nearly so go«>d as green.T* urist (in a remote corner of Scotian ) —“You get no newspaper# hen ?Good gracious, y«>u never know what’s going on in France.” Rustic 1 A#eel, and whit a boot it ?The folk in France are nae better aff.They dinna ken wit’s gaun on here.” To the Geaf.A person cured of Deafness and no ses in the head of 23 years standing by a Simple Remedy, will send a description of it free to any t>ers"n who applies to Nicholson, 177 MacDougal Street, New York.i?7 Xina-d’t Lln’m.n: Car.» Garget ia C.wi I have engaged Mr.Duncan H.McLeod of Worcester.Mas»., as Carriage and Sign Pa.nter, and can now show you some of the American Style of Pa nting and Lettering.Try us on a good job.Uf.T.Mountain FACTORY STREET.STAR CLOTHING HALL!

the twentieth century as it was m the fifteenth.When the time unhappily comes for i new king to reign, the privy council tvill meet and declare the throne to nave devolved on the Prince of Wales.Orders will at once be given to the earl marshal and the officers of the College r Arms to proclaim him.The first proclamation will be made in the courtyard of St.James’ palace, where the guard is changed.Garter King, the chief officer of the •nllege.will make the proclamation in solemn form, with the earl marshal, the kings, the heralds and the pursuivants in full uniform and mounted hard by At this proclamation the monarch is present, sitting at the window’ where ali his predecessors have sat That is the cbiefest of the proclamations.but the news has to be carried far and wide to the distant city, the rank of the proclaiming officer descending as the business proceeds.The second pronouncement is made at Charing Cross and the third at the corner of Chancery lane.At this proclamation there will be a modification of the ancient form, owing to the disappearance of Temple Bar Within the city of London the lord mayor and sheriffs preserve their ancient sovereignty and allow no ruler within their gates except after permission asked and granted.The old form was for the junior pur suivant to rap at the gate and show hia warrant for proclamation Then the lord mayor ordered the gate to be opened and joined in the stately procession.The ceremony will doubtless remain, barring the knock at the gate, which does not exist.The last proclamation is made either at the corner of Wood street, Cheapside, or beside the Royal Exchange.In the provinces the proclamations are made by the local mayors.Being proclaimed and crowned, th« king has to offer to fight for his throne.In the olden times, when a king reigned by the power of his right arm, this was a necessary formality, and because it was necessary once it is done still.But the king no longer does his own fighting.He has a champion, the hereditary champion of England, whose business it is to do battle with all comers for the crown.The champion is always a member of the Dymoke family.When the king is crowned, he rides into Westminster ball mounted and in full armor, just as the champion was 000 years ago.He is accompanied by the earl marshal and the lord great chamberlain, also on horseback.Tbs hall is crowded with ticketed sightseers.A proclamation is read by one of the heralds, challenging anybody who disputes the right of the sovereigu to combat in an open space.The champion throws down his gauntlet as a guarantee of good faith, and then the hearts of all the ladies flutter in anticipation of a fight.But it is all a disappointing sham.If some enterprising person were to take up the challenge and the gauntlet, he would probably be run in by the police for creating a disturbance! The herald takes up the glove and hands it back to the champion, and then the king is firmly seated on his throne.- Loudon Mail._________ A Hero of the RhII.A Jim Blndso of the rail has just gone to

time realizes the necessity of dipping the lanibe.but a whole lot cf sheep owneri have nut yet learned that they don't kill all the ticks win n they dip only the lambs.And they never kill half the lice.Every day 1 hear men say.“My sheep are ticky and are shedding light fleeces.” Or: “Doctor, my sheep are pulling their wool.1 can t find an?sheep ticks, neither can I find any sign* of scab.” Now there is only one an ewer to all these questions and i nly one way to prevent the occurrence of this condition next year and that is to dip the sheep and dip the lambs and don’t be fooled into the belief when the wool ie taken off and the lambs are dipped and both sheep and lambs begin to improve that you have got through with ticks and lice.No, you have not.There is a lot of them there yet.They don t bite and annoy the sheep in warm weather simply because they live on the exudations (sweat) of the sheep when the weather is warm.But they will be on hand next winter all right, and they will have lots of children and grandchildren and great-grandchildren, and for what I know* have a whole lot of cousins, aunts and nncles come from somewhere else to visit them and spend the winter on the poor sheep’s carcass, annoying them and taking a whole lot of money ont of your pocket.The sheep cannot produce the wool and lambs that they could and would have produced had they all been dipped.A sheep owner the other day said to me, “Doctor, I have just dipped my lambs and they are literally covered w ith ticks, aud 1 found some lice on them too.” I said, “Why didn’t you dip the sheep also?” And he said “Oh, 1 guess I got ’em all when 1 dipped the lambs.The old sheep can stand more than a lamb anyway, you know, doctor.” Say, I had courage enough to call that man a fool.II» stood on the ground and I w’as in a carriage, so he couldn’t get at me and make me take it back, but I meant it He was a fool for so believing, and so is every sheep owner in the land who so believes.You see I am a good ways from them and run no risks whatever A man who year alter year will allow a little pest like a sheep tick that can be so easily and cheaply exterminated, yet capable of taking so many dollars yearly out of his pocket, is a fool.Now’ the question comes up, What shall I use for a dipV One will say but termilk, another will say brine and some say, “Get some tobacco stems and steep them up, that is what father used to do.” Yes, yes, yes, all have bom used and the sheep tick lived and died with old age and left a lot of progeny to mourn his loss.The facts are men use these homemade prépara cions be cause they cost next to nothing and it furnishes an excuse for dipping so that cranks like we won’t shoot ’em so hard That is all there is of it.Tobacco stems may, if used strong enough, kill lice and ticks, so w’ill tobacco dust put in the wool, but not one farmer in 500 ever does make the solution strong enough to be effective and that five hundredth man is sick himself or the hired man is laid up for three days and th« sheep, more or less of them, are made ¦ick also.“Well, what shall we use?” W’by, just send to some of the advertisers of sheep dip and get a ready prepared dip and then use it as directed and wipe out sheep ticks and sheep lice aud have done with it.And when yon get the dip don’t think you know more than the man who made the dip and go to using it half strength, thinking yon are practicing economy by so doing.You are not.It isn’t the stink that kills the tick, but the required regulated strength.Sheep Dip For Hoir».A swine breeder who had a number of pigs b or 10 weeks old, old enough to wean, noticed that they were not doing w’ell, and on closer examination found that “some were lousy, some a little mangy, and others looked measly-fied.” Housed keroseneoil, but it failed to relieve the trouble, and it occurred to him that as sheep dip was good to cure sheep suffering similar troubles he would give it a trial, and he reports the result as follows: “I pul in a barrel 25 gallons of water and a quart of dip and stirred it up good, then dipped the pigs.Never saw such a change.Not over 15 minutes’ work.Left barrel in the pen, and whenever I saw a pig having the least thing the matter with the skin I dumped it in the barrel of dip 1 have the cleanest, nicest lot of shotea ever raised and advise all raisers of hogs to try it.Dip your pigs several times at from 4 to 12 weeks old and see for yourselves.It w’ill more than save the price in feed and in better growth, kills all lice and humor in the skin, besides disinfecting the pigs.” The pens also should have been thoroughly cleaned and rid of lice by sprinkling with solution of carbolic acid or anything else that wpuld have the same effect, and probably this was done.— Live Stock.CnnRdinn Rnnchlnff.Canada’s greatest cattle ranching districts are the territories of Alberta end Assiniboia, N W.T.Their borders inclose a country equal to the

and s iinpling the contents of the lunch basket.The atten lance was very good, especially vhen it is considered that at this time of the year the farmers are making preparations for hayii g.These outings are of much benefit to a community.Thiy draw the people closer together in the bonds of fellowship and at the same time ideas are exchanged in this and that affecting the farm which cannot bj but productive of much good.Although it was pretty much of a free and easy affair, yet the’speeches in the afternoon contain »d much that should receive serious consideration.We are living in an age wnen the man who thinks and a ’ts has the pull over his neighbors, and there is no reason why the farming community, comp >8id as they are of the bone and sinew of the country, should not awaken to a kn >wledge of their req moments and study the various problems laid before them which wib ultimately redound to tlnirmu ual benefit The Executive Committee of the Asso ciatii n had made arrang mants for sev« r-al speakers of prominence to ho present but unfortunately three of them were out of tlu country, and another was detained with his parliamentary duties, but the speakers present dealt with questions affecting the farming world,and especially those of this dis riot in such a manner that thinking caps will be put on for some time to come.By one o’clock the grounds were crowded, a far larger number being [ire-sent than last year.Music was supplied by Ur.f.Hubbtrd, cornet, Bandmaster Ringue p a o,and Mr.Bourg-ault,violin, fioniG.A.LeBaron’s music parlours The fact that this part of the programme was in such able hands bespeaks tine music.Every one thoroughly enj »yod it, and called for more.The wonder is that the youi g people did not trip the light fantastic, surely it was tempting enough Another part that was of a nature de serving the highest commend ition was the splendid lunch to which the guests and directors sat down at half-past twelve.I » a shady grove the table* groaning with good things, were set, and the following partook of the lunch so nicely served by Mrs W.H.Abbott and her assistants Mis es Bradley, Green,and Burrill: Mr.Wm .Morris,pre sident, John Ewing, Richmond, Mr.S.Foster, Knowlton,Dr.Robertson, Messrs John McIntosh, Alex.Ames.John Man-son, C.W.White, W.Dundin, E Fitz gerald, Thus.Ward, A.Bradley, Green, VV.H.Abbott and Pinion Furrill.At the conclusion of the lunch the l*re ident paid a fitting compliment to Mrs.Abbott and her assistants for the tine repast.The interval up to two o’clock was spent in social intercourse,and the young er people enjoyed themselves with swings, games, »fc\ Shortly after two o’clock the President of the association, Mr.Wm.Morris, called the meeting to order.In doing so he btde the people a hearty welcome.He had h p jd that th* re might have had a number ot strangers to a Irlress them but he held Ictr rs of apology for iuatility to be present from Vr.W.B I es, M.P., Mr.R H.Pope, M.P., who were in British Columbia Hon Thus.Duffy, Commissioner of Public Works who wax on his way to England, and from Mr.A.H.Moore, M.P , who was attending his parliamentary duties.He did not wi-h to detain them with a speech,but he would say tl at such gather logs of this kind ought to b * encouraged to the greatest extent possible.He advocated the farm r* to c mbine amongst themselves and work ogether so that they would ho in a position to meet the other combines which worked against them.He was glad th«y had with them Messrs.S.Fosti r.Knowlton, and John Ewing, Richmot d, and he had much pleasure in calling upon the latter to address them.Mr.John Ewing began by remarking that he considered himself a member of the Sherbrooke Ploughmen’s Association, for ho attended a meeting of the assocta-ti< n 22 yenrs ago, and since that time he had visited often.He was pleased to see such a large attendance that day, and especially of the younger people for it was the hoys and girls of to day tha*- w ill Dave to bare the brunt of the battle in the future.Ho referred to the w< rk done by Mr.8.Foster, Knowlton, in the interests of the farmers of the Eastern Townships and s ltd that there was no man in the Province who more deserved the confi le nee, the respect and encouragement of the farmers than Mr.Foster.He (Mr.Ewing) had just returned from Western Ontario and he had pass .ati n Mills 63 10 10 84 14 10 Smith’s Falls 128 16 m Brigham 53 22 14” Brock ville 155 16 12À Sheriff McIntosh was the last aker He thought that if the farmers did a lirtîo more thinking that it would improve their condition very much.They have got to compete with other combines and they should co-operate amongst them-s Ives to improve their condition.They h »d a country that could not be beat, nnl bon e out by the fact that buyers have to c >me here to buy.He was speaking to a Mr.Grant in Montreal last week wh * had been for a long time buyer in New York, but who had to come to Canada as the export business there was gone.The reason why that trade was gone was because we made better butter and cheese and the buyers had t ) follow.Mr.Foster had referred to a company which had proposed coming here and erecting some 25 combinations factories.Well he knew something ibout that, because he was the one that t Id Mr Foster The company referred to owntd about 150 retail stores in the old country, and the reason for wanting to locate here was because the butter and cheese was superior to any other expert* d They would build these factories, buy the milk from the farmers, and the making In ing under their own supervision they would have a constant uniformity which they could not now attain owing to them having to purchase from different factories A company that would be willing to spend about $5000 on each factory whs one that could be depend* d upon, and would pay a fair price for the milk.These are the people thit tell you what a tine country we ha e.In this siction rf the country they had conditions tuptrior to any other portion of the Dominion or the States, and combining amongst themselves they c >uid overcome many difficulties that now confront them.The farming class is the noblest profession in this country.(Applause).Rev.Dr.S arth proposed a vote if thanks to the speakers, and remarked that much useful information had b *en t* M them, and he hoped that it would result in definite action.A game of hase hall between the East Sherbrooke Club and a scratch team wa*-watched with much interest.About four o’clock the sky became over cast and the people began

Viger Station in Mon treal late at n ght on their way to camp, too late for the boat to Laprairie, and were left "standing on the platform for hours in heavy marching order and without food : there was no grumbling among the men.The * fficersof the various companies were told thkt the C.P.R.au thorities had agreed to send in rations f» r the men, but at 1130 word was brought that they we*e u able to find any, where upon the < flic era took the matter in hand and succeeded in securing provisions for the men, even at that late hour.This trouble and delay having been caused by the transport train every » me-concerned feels that the C.P.R authorities should have provided better f >r the emergency.Another piece of injustice was that the Company having failed to load all the baggage of the Battalion on the cars on returning from camp it was shipped a day or two later with a charge of 88.15 against No.2 Company, although the Company had already been paid f »r this service through the regular transport requisitions.There is a movement on foot to provide helmets for the men of the 58th Batt.which will be a great benefit to the men if it succeeds, as they all suffer extremely from sunburn, owing to the Glengarry cap now worn affording no protection against the sun.DEATHS.BARTON-At Keith.July UU 1>99.Gwen-dolin*» Barton, adop’ed d «lighter of Mr and Mr-.VV F.McLeou.aged ô y
