with quantities of ma ¦ no-guns and heavily teamed, galloping batteries.The projected dash explains the extraordinary effort that \u2022was made to consolidate the bridge-liead at Btesnstraate.All

the railway triangle easy of Quinchy.Here, too, the Germans have be£n using every specie of foul device.There is reason to believe that the water in the district has been poisoned\u2014our doctors suspect with arsenic\u2014and careful analyses are now being made to establish the point.\u201cAs an illustration of the Gorman methods, one may mention the case of a young subaltern, newly out, who, at the risk -of his life, went to give a drink to a wounded German officer, who was calling piteously for water.As he bent over him with his flask, the German seized a bayonet that was lying by his side and stabbed his benefactor through the heart.The gallant youngster had already been wounded in two places.The wounded scoundrel endeavored to escape but was promptly riddled with bullets by the

great rival, parties, Premier Asquith and Andrew Arthur, Lachute.Bonar Law, made statements to the Grand Warden, House of Commons yesterday confirming the reports of a coalition ministry.The Prime

Australian Ranks on Gallipoli Peninsula Master,\tR.Mc- Rev.P.\tPergau, r, T., J.\tPotter, ¦, D.J.\tDickson, Yesterday\u2019s reports have changed Tuesday\u2019s forecasts of the personnel of the ministry in only two or three details.There is no doubt that the re-organization of the Government will mean the snuffing out of some high political ambitions.It is believed that the most prominent members slated for retirement are Lord Haldane, lord high chancellor ; the Marquis of Crewe, secretary of state for India ; Lewis Harcourt, secretary of state for the colonies ; and Augustine Birrell, chief secretary for Ireland.The Marquis of Crewe and MV.Birrell will go willingly.Mr.Harcourt may be raised to the peerage, and possibly become Viceroy of India.LORD FISHER REMAINS.Lord Fisher, first sea lord, was in his office at the Admiralty yesterday, which was taken to mean that the Government had refused to accept his resignation, making inevitable departure from the Admiralty Winston Spencer Churchill, the lord.It is believed by many Mr.Churchill will be given the Mar quis of Crewe's portfolio at the India Office, or that he will succeed Mr.Harcourt as secretary of state for colonies.Mr.Churchill is a major in the Territorials and it would cause little surprise if he should prefer the fighting line to a cabinet position, which would give him ample opportunity for his aggressive nature.Clarenceville.Grand Montreal.Grand Montreal.Grand Representative, F.P.Houla-han, Sherbrooke.Grand Marshall, 0.S.Cooper, Montreal.Grand Conductor, J.E.Fay, Knowlton.Grand, Chaplain,

One, O.Vilandre, who some years ago was an active business man , at Asbestos, organized two compa-j nies, one a general store under the name of the Vilandre Company, and : the other for the purpose of manufac-g : turing chairs, toys, etc., under the : name of the Wotton Chair and Toy j Company.Both of these companies were incorporated.Vilandre was appointed treasurer and financial manager of each com-! pany and they had intimate business ; connections with each other.The Wotton Company finally were in need of money and the company made a note for 56,000, which was endorsed by all the directors, about I twelve or fifteen in number.Vilandre took this note to the bank and asked to have it discounted, but the bank refused to do so as the company had virtually exhausted its credit.This i was on Oct.18th, 1912.On Oct.31st, thirteen days afterwards, Vilandre went again to the; bank with a note of the Vilandre company for ?4,800 and asked to have it discounted, offering as secur-i ity for payment the note of the oth-; er company for $6,000.The bank discounted the note for $4,800.The collateral note of $6,000 was afterwards divided into three notes ; written from the hospital at Bouen of $2,000 each, and was finallv divid-: ed into two notes of $4,000 and $?,-000 respectively.Both companies having gone into insolvency, action i is now taken on the said two notes \u2019 given as collateral for the payment of $4,800, which was endorsed by the directors of the Wotton company and .it is these directors who are now sued.Unfortunately for the defendants the man who organized these two companies and obtained the advance from the bank of $4,800 has left the country and his evidence could not be produced.The defendants keenlv contested both actions and raised several legal grounds, but judgment went against them in each case, and they were held liable not only for the payment of the $4,800 for which their notes were given as security, but for the full amount of the notes they endors-| ed inasmuch as the Vilandre company ! had previous to these transactions, : entered into an agreement with the bank under which any collateral security given the bank by the Vilandre company should he retained by the bank to meet any unpaid balance due by the said company.The two cases are practically the same but two actions were taken inasmuch as there were more defendants in one case than in the other.DARCHE VS.KENNEDY.Darche vs.Kennedy.Inj this case, i the plaintiff, Mr.J.A.Darche, Sher-; brooke, took an action against An-! gus Kennedy, of Montreal, for the sum of $4,000 and interest.The de-\u2019 fendant contested the action on the ground that the power of attorney which he had given his cousin, J.D.Kennedy,'to sell and otherwise dispose of a property that the defendant had bought on which the plaintiff held a mortgage, did not give him any power to bind defendant to pay this sum and although the property in question might be liable, it was : contended plaintiff had no personal action against the defendant.Angus Kennedy.The Court made a careful examination of the terms of the power of attorney and came to the conclusion that the attorney, J.D.Kennedy,1 had authority to hind defendant for the payment of this sum of money, and judgment, therefore, went against the defendant for the amount demanded.Important Meeting of the Local Association Will Be Held on Friday Afternoon RED GROSS SOCIETY IN RECEIPT OF DONATIONS OF WORK FROM OUTSIDE POINTS.Speaking of the now historic Battle of Langemarck the minnipeg \u201cManitoba Free Press\u201d cays : \u201cThere will go over Canada to-day a wave of deep feeling : Pride for our dead, sympathy for the bereaved, and behind these a strengthened resolution to champion the cause for which they died, sacrifices involved.regardless of the Canada will look Classy Suits The spring cut is of short length\u2014form fitting English style\u2014coat buttoning two or three buttons, as the wearer may desire\u2014the lapels are of a medium proportion, made with soft roll.The vest is cut high ;
