Stanstead District of the Methodist Church met at Beebe Plain Wednesday and Thursday of this week.The elections for the annual conference were as follows : To the Stationing Committee— Rev.C.A.Sykes.Sunday-School Committee—Rev.C.W.Finch and G.W.Aulis.Epworth League Committee-Rev.P.Perreau and M.P.Dixon.Sustentation Fund Committee.— Rev.A.O.Watts and Mr.Otis Shurtleff.Lay Delegates to Conference.— J.F.Telford, Rock Island ; D.Davis,Coaticook : W.L.Cleveland, Baruston ; M.P.Dixon, Beebe Plain ; Thos.Ward, Hatley ; S.J.Craig, Compton ; \V.H.Breevort, Georgeville ; Percy Baldwin, Baldwin’s Mills ; A.J.Turner, Cherry River ; F.B.Channel!, East Bolton ; M.A Darling, Yale Perkins; J.C.Bullis, Grauiteville.To the Missionary Board.—Sidney Stevens ; alternate, M.P.Dixon.Besides the regular routine business the District recommended the following re-arrangement of circuits : That the Smith's Mills appointment of the Georgeville mission be Padded to the Beebe Plain circuit, and that the Georgeville and Apple Grove appointments be worked by a young man.This is to spare the Georgeville man the drive to Smith’s Mills, which is physically impracticable, but whether the StationingiCommittee will sanction this or not remains to be seen.Then the Baruston and Baldwin’s Mills circuitswere amalgamated as they were previous to 1806.The ladies of the church gave the ministers a complimentary supper in the dining nail of the church, and a very pleasant evening was spent.MURDER IN MONTREAL.J.Lapleine Shoots His Landlady.Montreal, May 17—A cold-blooded murder was committed to-night in St.Cunegonde by a census enumerator named Joseph Lapleine.lie was boarding with a woman named Madame Lefebvre, to whom he owed $00.When she asked for the money he resented it, and drawing a revolver, shot her dead.He then gave himself up to the police.The woman’s husband is an employee of the Grand Trunk Railway.In Lapleine’s pocket was found a letter addressed to Coroner MacMahon, in which the murderer said he was in love with Madame Lefebvre, that it was her fault, and that she would die quick.I The letter also directed that cer-' tain money coming to him should ’ be paid to Ins tailor.Whether Lapleine is in his right mind or not, the letter seems to show that the murder w as premeditated.He is an ironmoulder by trade, and worked for the Montreal Rolling Mills, as well as the Grand Trunk.The victim, who w as 36 years old, was married, but had no children.She kept a small fruit store.THE ROYAL VISITORS.Parliament Votes $120,000 For Their Entertainment.Ottawa, May 18.—In the House of Commons last night, on the vote of $120,000 for the reception of the Duke of Cornwall, the Finance Minister said that municipalities would defray the cost of their own receptions to the royal party, but that there would be links to fill in between which this appropriation would serve.Ottawa, May 18.—Before the House rose last night the acting Postmaster - General announced that the question of increasing the salaries of letter carriers has been left over till next year, when a scheme would be prepared.The government will recommend to parliament the granting of a bounty not to exceed $100,000 annually on lead refined in ^Canada.It is granted as follows : $5 per ton in 1902, $4 in 1903, $3 in 1904, $2 in 1905, and $1 in 1906.Street Car Strike Over.AGREEMENT REACHED AFTER LONG CONFERENCE.Albany, N.Y., May IS.The settlement of the great railway strike, affecting five cities, was accomplished to*day, after a conference which lasted until midnight, and after ratification with the full body of strikers, at meetings of their individual organizations, which did not terminate in some instances until ten o’clock this morning, the hour set for the officers of the Street Railway Employees' Association and the Traction Company to formally sign the agreement.Roth sides to the controversy made concessions, and when the papers were signed both claimed a victory.The Troy branches of the employees' union were the first to rat i f y the a greement, at four o’clock this morning, and the Albany men signed it at 10.29.The officers of the Employees’ Association signed it a moment later, and the Traction Company officers appended their signatures at twenty minutes to eleven.No Issue on Wednesday.As Victoria Day falls on Friday the Examiner will be

of 107 Foot Chimney.St.John, N.B., May 18—One of the worst fatalities which has oc-cured in St.John in years happened this afternoon, when the 107-foot chimney of Jewett’s sawmill at Millidgeville collapsed, crushing to death beneath its thousands of falling bricks three men and injuring three others.The Deaf Made to Hear.St.Thomas.A modern miracle was made known to-day when Mr.Riddle, of this city, announced that he had recovered his hearing.He has been almost entirely deaf, and it borders on the miraculous to find him able to hear everything with great distinctness.As his case is proving of such universal interest, we give Mr.Riddle’s statement: “My hearing was always poor, and not long ago 1 became almost deaf.It was the result of Catarrhal inflammation, but nothing did me good until I used Catarrhozone.It cured my trouble, and 1 strongly recommend it to the deaf.” Fully nine-tenths of the deafness is the result of Catarrh, and can be cured by Catarrhozone.The cures of deafness wrought by this remedy in cases of even twenty years standing are really astounding.Among many others, ministers of the gospel testify to the wonderful powers of Catarrhozone, and your druggist can tell of some astonishing cases in his ow n experience.Better give it a trial, if your hearing is impaired.Price $1, umall size 25 cents, druggists or N.C Poison At Co., Hartford, Conn., U.S.A.3ins57 BACK FROM THE NORTHWEST TERRITORIES.Mr.McKeag Meets Many Townships People.Mr.Thomas McKeag,of Danville, who went in charge of three car loads of live Stock belimging to Mr.S.Mallory’ to Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta, N.W.T., has returned to his home again.He was in the city on Tuesday, and in giving an account of his trip stated that he was met at Strathcona, Alberta, by Mr.s.Mallory and Mr.Ferguson.The next day’ the stock w as driven to Fort Saskatchewan, a distance of eighteen miles from Strathcona.The stock arrived in the best of condition, and the greatest loss he experienced was in the loss of sleep.He found Mr.Mallory’s farm in good shape, the crop being put in 170 acres of his 300 acre farm, and the balance was expected to be in shortly after he left.The crop w’as put in at the rate of fifteen acres a day.This farm Mr.Mallory rents, but lie has now purchased a farm a quarter of a mile distant in a good land quarter section.He w ill seed 45 acres oj this farm this season* The Fort Saskatchewan Milling Conn any’ made an offer of $3,00o for the crop after threshing, they to take all the changes, but Mr.Mallory did not accent the offer.As soon as the stock arrived they were turned out into the Police reserve and Government lands,where there is plenty of gra*s for free grazing.The trip out lasted eleven days and nights, and the weather throughout was very line.Mr.McKeag met a number of Eastern Townships people, who all seemed to be getting along very well.Among those lie met were : H.Mackenzie, Edmoton, and Wm.Barnwell, of Maple Creek, late of Danville, who were doing well and enjoying the fine climate.Mr.McKeag also went to High River, where he met William and John McKeag, the Suiters, and E.D.Adams and family, who were prospering in that section of the Dominion.May Not Export Trout.Ottawa, May 18—The Dominion authorities have decided to prohibit the export of all kinds of trout except lake trout.This course is followed in order to preserve the Canadian trout fisheries.Some American sportsmen have been in the habit of spending a few’ days in Canada and then taking away with them hundreds of pounds of trout.The new regulation will, of course, put an end to this and guard against the impoverishing of Canadian trout fisheries.Legitimate sportsmen will be allowed to take 25 pounds of trout out of the country with them.CARRIAGES & WAGONS WHOLESALE AND RETAIL.3 carloads jusl received Granby and other celebrated makers.My stock is larger and of different styles, and prices are right for those that want to buy a

a place in which those who are weary of the bur den of daily cares should find a mo m< nt's rest In the contemplation of the higher life which is possible for nil though attained by so few; a place in which the man of strife and busim «diould have time to think how small after all.are the rewards fie covets compared v.iUi peace and charity.’’ UNROMANTIC COURTSHIPS ARE THE RULE IN GERMANY.There «he Women Are Obliged to H**o Some Flnunclnl Keaources When They Mnrry—The Com of Acquiring u Blilltury tlnabaud.In Bavaria every girl Is expected to get married.Ask a Bavarian, and he will tell you that It is impossible for a portionless maiden to find a husband.If a girl has no money for a dowry, therefore, she sets herself at work to save one.Marriage In Germany Is nearly entirely a matter of business.The father of the girl announces the sum which is to go with her, while the papa of the prospective husband holds out for more.That is the first stage of the negotiations.JJttle by little each yields to the other.Finally, often after months of delay, the contract Is drawn up wdth minute specifications by a notary, and then the lovemaking may begin.The courtship is very circumscribed and is probably not altogether satisfactory, for the German maiden is a romantic creature, and the opportunities she has for getting acquainted with her husband before marriage are very meager.The parental supervision is so inbred In the nation that even the government takes a hand in it with its servants.A German army officer is a splendid creature to the eye, but his pay is very mall, ranging from a matter of $5 a week for a lieutenant to $50 a week for a full fledged general.In order to prevent the possmillty of seediness in appearance or style of living the government forbids an officer to marry unless he deposits a certain sum—it is $20,000 for a lieutenant and become» gradually less for each higher grade— with the authorities, the Income of which is doled out to him semiannually.This Is in reality putting a price ou the man, because the greater number of German officers are very poor and can get the money required only from their brides.The money which a wife brings to her husband, unless there is an express notarial stipulation to the contrary, becomes absolutely the husband’s property.Woman in the eye of the law has practically no rights except such as her husband may allow her.He treats her very often as merely a piece of live stock.If the woman rebels, which she does very rarely, he displays a very short temper and an aptness for wield* ing a poker or a walking stick in a use for which they were never meant In a German newspaper one may always find a column devoted to matrimonial announcements.There Is no romanco In these advertisements.The man tells how much money he has and how much he wants.The woman names her dowry to tho very pfennig.Very often the man lias no money at all and expresses his desire to marry into a business, but ths woman knows that it is useless to advertise at all unless she has some money, if it amount» only to $100 or so, which may be regarded as the lowest sum worthy of consideration as a mitglft On the other band, It Is the woman’s privilege to name tbe calling which she prefers the man should follow.She usually chooses an official clerk or porter, a policeman or a car conductor, all of whom have tenure of office and an old age pension.She has more of an eye to stability than to ambition.It is In the so called higher classes of society that one finds the baldest and most businesslike matrimonial transactions.There are few young men of this class who have either money or any prospect of making any otherwise than by a wealthy marriage.When they Inherit fortunes, It Is the fashion to dissipate them, and when they don’t Inherit it is against the prejudices of their education and training to seek employment or to engage in any kind of business.Therefore most of them enter the army while waiting for a rich bride.Daughters of rich brewer» nod merchants are acceptable to these gentlemen, but their great and persistent dream Is to capture an American heiress.They confess the matter frankly to any one and every one who will 11»-ten.Traveling American heiresses are not so plentiful In Germany as in France and Italy; still, they are to be found.It would seem, however, that notwithstanding the fact that German titles are at least a little more valuable than those of the Latin countries they do not poetess the same glamour in feminine «yes, because tbe German title captures the American bag of gold comparatively rarely.Perhaps It Is because the Teutonic wooing is more arrogant and supercilious than Insinuating.Of all countries Germany Is perhap» that In which romanticism flourishes most It Is instinct In its traditions, In Its history and its literature.Yet In the affairs of daily life and pre-eminently in Its matrimonial affairs militarism rises to the plane of worship.Ever have them?Then v/e can’t tell you any- about Y* .v*' t h e fîi.knew how * how, you can’t ] t!*c terrible deo Y ou dark everything looks and how you are about ready to give up.Some- throw off cepression.Are things really so hkic?Isn’t it yournerves, after all?That’s where the trouble is.Your nerves are beingpoisoned from the impurities In your blood.i era "• -ft ** iii \ purifies the Mood and i uives power and stability a to the nerves.It makes .i;t aim and strength, activ-i iiy and cheerfulness.This Is what “Ayer’s” ! will do for you.It’s the 1 oldest Sarsaparilla in the j land, the kind that was | old before other Sarsa-.parillas were known.4 This also accounts for ithe saying, “One bottle of Ayer’s is worth three bottles of the ordinary kind.” Sl.M • toute- All driffltte.WHim thm Doctor.If you ha»e ony complaint whatever and oeftlro the beet medical advice you can poeiibly reçoive, write the doctor freely.You will receive a prompt reply.without cqet.Addrees.Db.J.Q.A YKR.Lowell.M*«f.The May St.Nicholas.Boys or girls with weak hearts are not just the ones to enjoy the most Cleveland Moffett’s” Bridge-B ilder” article In the May St.Nicholas.Tne dim and perilous heights frequented by the workmen on the new Brooklyn Bridge, as % matter of daily routine, are appalling to • he imagination, and Mr.Moffett hae nothing to gain by minimizing the perils hose stouthearted fellovn are constantly exposed to;
