Aio, the Foreign Office advise me that in \ lew of the reported sinking of * Japanese merchant vessel his Majesty's Minister at Seoul telegraphed the missionaries on the 23rd ultimo to await a British man-of-war rather than send the women and children by Japanese vessel.They replied that they would await further instructions The Admiralty have since instructed the Commander-in-Chief of the China station to send a ship to Songchin for the missionaries, women and children there, calling at Wonsan on the way.’’ _________________ Number of Business Places Destroyed.So great has become the interest in the investigation at Washington on Friday of the protests against Red Smoot, of Utah, retaining his seat in the United Slates Senate that it was necessary to post a policeman at the door of the room of the Commit ee on Privileges and Elections, l 1 re the hearings are progressing.All persons except those directly interested were kept out of the room, though outside the door it was impossible almost to maintain a passageway through the corridor of the Capitol President Joseph II Smith, 1 the head of the Mormons, gave some interesting testimony upon the relations of Mormons with the wives they married prior to 1890, when polygamous marriages were forbidden."This,” said President Smith in reply to questions, "was my case, and is my case now.I was placed in this position ; I had a family—a plural family, if you please I married my first wife more than thirty-eight years ago, and my last wife more than twenty years ago.By these wives 1 have had children, and I have preferred to take my own chances with the law, and suffer any consequences the law might visit upon me rather than to abandon those children and their mothers.1 have continued to cohabit with them since the manifesto of 1890, anil they have borne me children since* that date I was fully aware of what I was doing 1 knew I was amenable to the law, but, as 1 say, 1 preferred to face that situation rather than to desert them.1 have not cohabited with hese wives openly or flaunted the fact, but 1 have acknowledged these wives and children as my family.The people of Utah have regarded the situation as an existing fact.These people, as a rule, are broad-minded iiid liberal in their views and have condoned the offence—If offence it is, rather than interfere with my situation as they found it.It lias l>een known what I have been doing.I have not been interfered with, nor disturbed in any way.It 1 had he«*n 1 was there to answer the charges.1 was willing to face them au I suhmr to the penalty whatever it might be.” "Then said Mr "That spouse.“How many children had since the manifesto was read."Eleven *mcc 1890,” said Smith."Each of my live wives has borne me children ” "Since that time?” asked Mr.Burrows."Since that time,” the witness repeated in answer, "I rather think,” he added, "that one of them has had three children.I could tell you a little later.” He said in reply to Mr Taylor that he had attended the dedication exercises at the St Louis Exposition and had been accompanied by a plural wife, Edna Smith, by name.Senator Smoot had been with them on that occasion, when they had been photographed in a group.In reply to a question by Senator Smoot he said : “Each of my families has a home of its own, in Salt Lake City,and comparatively near to each other.Since the manifesto my custom has been to live with my first wife at her home, but I have visited my other families.” He also said, replying to Mr.Taylor, that he had been present at the reception to Hie President at Senator Kearns’ residence in Salt Lake City, and that he had one of his plural wives with him, hut.that she was not the one whom he took to St.Louis."Has Mr.Smoot visited you at your residences ?” "He has been to my first wile’s] 1 house, where Î make what migit be ¦called mv official resilience” /• fL'JrLi Goins Into Our guns are of the latest ami most improved type, our ammunition of the best quality and ‘ sure Hie,” but best of all we have the necessary “support" (a full carload).The battery that does effect ive service in the Held, lines up for action and throw a few shots into the enemy to open the way for a big Wall Paper season.The 2$c a roll are the “ hottest" shots that ever created consternation in the cheap wall paper.If you want to make a forward move, let us send you samples.You can learn all about our campaign by writing for samples and prices.KERR & FOSS *1® OPPOSITE THEATRE.Grand Opening o o OF o o you have five wives now Burrows, is correct was the re have you of 1890 ?” Mr.The I earnest Collection S'M>w’n b.v any House in tbis G't.v.An entirely Exclusive Collection of New English rints, Qinhams and Zephyr*, in large and small broken checks, stripes and plains The colors are all staple and guaranteed fast.For ladies’ waists, dresses, and children’s wear.A fine range of pure white open work Dress Muslins, in checks ami stripes.Also heavy corded effects, fine quality, special 25c yd.New Imported Fancy Dress Muslin in almost every imaginable tone of colors, rich designs, also satin stripe effects, and very sheer in some respect;

kilts on the street Everyone was proud of him because he had fought well and bravely.They all wanted to let him know they were glad to have him back, and when train time came the streets and the station yard were jammed with people, the platform was crowded with the members of his regiment, the torches burned brightly, the horses became restless, the people waited nosily.The train pulled in There was the noise of torpedoes, rockets, Homan candles, hands playing, cheering and the crowd saw an unpretentious looking fellow in khaki get off.The people gave one remarkable yell, handkerchiefs waved, hats were off, and they yelled again and shouted and cheered.It was a hearty welcome,— just such a one as hundreds of other towns gave their sons when they came back in their sober khaki uniforms There were those that never came back.Some whose warm, quiv ering, brave young hearts were stilled forever out these.Canadian hearts, brothers, sons, husbands, friends.Have we forgotten 9

started to sing The Soldiers of the queen.” The ovvd joined in.They waved any available thing they could find and sang as they never had sung before.It echoed and re-echoed in the old rink with its lights and flags, out.through the town, out across all Canada,— “And when we say that England’s master, Remember who has made her so,— It’s the soldiers of the Queen, my lads.” The soldiers of the
