declares that Parliament could afford to pay increased attention to this class of le gislation, and that a Minister or offi- vial might be charged with the special duty of taking care that private bill legislation does not interfere with public rights.The seal difficulty, however, docs not lie here ; if the committees appointed for such purposes are unable to protect the public, it is not likely that any special Minister or official would be more successful ; it is conceivable that he woyld be less so.The tronble lies in the private ap- Gold Watches, Silver | Watches.Chatelaine Watches in a Fine Silver, Gilt and Enamelled, ahd set with Parisian Pearls.PRICES FROM $8.TO $15.G.SEIFERT & SONS Jewellers, 16 Fabrique Street.ie AAAAAAMAAAAAA Easter Presents.\u201cEaster Presents.Souvenir Enamels.Belt Buckles, Brooches, Pins, Cuff Links, Ennmelled Watch Guards.G.SEIFERT & SONS, Jewellers, 16 Fabrique Street.G.SEIFERT & SONS, Jewellers, 1C Fabrique Street.Easter Presents.PEARLS SET IN FINE GOLD, BROOCHES, HAIR ORNAMENTS, SCARF PINS, PENDANTS STERLING BILVER HEARTY, STERLING SILVER NECKLETS, STERLING BILVER OROSSES QT & SON eBouBoBoRoftodon DOGoBHB0DoBBoBeN0O IK JEWELLERS, 16 Fabrique Street.¢ A Easter Presentscar, which he does now and then, it is the conductor, and not the motorman, who \u201ccomes in for squalls.\u201d meme, A WIBE BILENCE.It is only right that credit should be given where it is due, and, there fore, so far from Joining.in the laugh |me which greeted the Minister of Agriculproaches made by promoters of these bills to individual members of committees, and in deputations waiting privately on (he Premier or his col leagues.If the practice is to be chech- od it should be dune efficiently by pre venting any arguments for or against a bill being urged on any member of the Legislature outside the committee enquiring into it, \u2014\u2014 WHAT A CHANGE WAS THERE.A sudden and unlooked for (rans- formation scene took place on St.John street without, the other night, which was almost appalling.It was well! not fair, and three ladies were waiting at Cote St.Genevieve for the street car to come along and take them into town.On seeing it approach they stood forth like one man\u2014we beg their pardons\u2014woman, and stretching their right arms to the frowning skies, appeared 10 be invoking blessings on the head of the coming man, y'clept motorman.But that flinty-hearied individual disregarded their allurement, and dashed hy without taking anv notice\u2014didn't even turn up his nose at them, literally, though metaphorically he did.Then the transformation took place ; the three (races became the three Furies, and with arms reversed, and fingers pointing downwards, silently, but unmistakably, expressed their opinion of where that motorman would ultimately go to.A somewhat simi- lat scene took place a few nights previously in the Lower Town, where a gentleman and two ladies had to travel after the car for three blocks in the slush before they could prevail on it to stop.We are told on such occasions that the motorman does not see the intending passenger, but that is no excuse, especially in such cases as we have mentioned.If à man docs not sea three persons wanting 10 board the cat, it implies cither carelessness or a very defective vision.We incline to think that the proceeding is rather a grim joke which the motorman plays occasionally on the eonductor as the cxpense of the public, for, if the vie tim succeeds eventually in boarding the ture's refusal the other night to commit himaclt on the debatable question as to whether the tomato is a vege table of u fruit, we are rather dis- dence, Wea Hon, Nr, Fishet 8° in \u2019 Thy @uebeg Chronicle rec posed to commend his caution and pru- of any information, which will be of undoubted servos va: bd jcountry, he is not backward in proclaiming it; as, for instance, when he discovered the great which would be effected by saipping off the stems of peaches instead of pulling them by hand, and contemplated having scissors made for the especial pur- | makes pose, (as, indeed, was very requisite); but when there is any room for doubt or misapprehension, he is wisely silent, and therein sets a bright example to the Department of Agriculture across the line, whose recent bulletins have caused much temporary perturbation of mind to a worthy farmer of Gene va, N.Y., and the premature death of a valuable animal.The Department said there was money in Angora goats, and z0 Mr.Arnold found there was, but not exactly in the sense in which he took it\u2014rather the reverse.He went to St.Louis, and purchased a amail flock, including a full-blooded buck for which he paid $230.: The other day, Mr.Arnold went into the box- stall where the buck was kept, to do some work, having in an inside pceket of his coat a wallet which contained a considerable sum of money.After completing the work in the stall, Mr.Arnold went to the house and a few minutes later discovered that the wallet was missing.After an exiended search through the horse, waggon and goat barns, the wallet was found in the buck's stall.The wallet was spread open, and the money that had heen in it was gone.From marks on the wallet it was evident that the buck had been tampering with it and had probably eaten the money.Afler a consultation with his wife.Mr.Arnold killed the buck.There wax money in that goat, mutilated but still redeemable\u2014seven $100 Lila, four $50 bills, five $20 bills, three $16 Lills, one $5 bill and one $3 bill, $1087 in all.One can never be tuo thoughtful of pos sible results, and Mr.Fisher deserves credit for exposing himeelf to the ridicule of the ribald, rather than state as a fact what he was not quite cer- lain of, and risk unpleasant resulis tu '[Ilis Majesty's lieges by assigning an incorrect edible status to the tomato.Hon.Mr.Blair sometimes yields to temptation, though, to do him justice, he always manifests extreme reluctance to be drawn out, and requires as much pressing as some young ladies when they are asked to sing, but the information he imparts is apt to lack that certainty which characterizes Mr.Fisher, as any one can ascertain for himself by comparing the explanations of theMinister of Railways and Canals concerning the Clergue steel raile contract, and the lucid exposition of the Minister of Agriculture of the merits and demerits of the different methods of treating peach-stems.\u2014 EEE THE CENSUL) In view of the fact that the census is now being taken, the following com parative statement of all the censuses that have been taken since Confederation will prove interesting : 18M 1881.1801 Ontario\u2014 1,013,851 1,926,920 2,114,321 1,191,516 1,350,000 1,488,535 Nova Scotis\u2014 41058 , 0, 450,396 New Brunswick\u2014 285,504 331,238 321,263 Manitobu\u2014 18,995 \u2014 62,260 152,506 Br'ish Columbia\u2014 36,247 49,459 98,173 P.E.Island 1 94,021 108,891 © 109,078 N.W.Territoriesre eee DBAS 9R,607 Total\u2014 3,038,024 4,334,810 4,833,229 A consideration of the figures given above shows that the percentage of increase for 1861 over 1871 was 18.97, while that of 1891 \u2018over that of 1881 was only 11.76.The decline in the latter period is largely attributable to the fact that in 1891 a great number of people out of the country were excluded, who in the previous census were counted as only ** rarily absent.\u201d Judging from what is known of the instructions given the enumerators this time, the population is to te made as large as possible, and special instructions with this view, it is said, have been given in this province, The growth of the cities in the older provinces of Canada has, it is thought, been satisfaciory, and the increase in Manitoba, the Northwest, and British Columbia has been large, so that, all things considered the peragntage of increase in 1901 will be larger than that in 1801, while it will scarcely equal that of 1881, OUTING FOR APRIL, 1901.Amidst a great diversity of other appropriate subjects, the keynote of Outing for April in game pro and the losses to the fe prople dy pre wont conditions.John .Wise contributes a ed sthtement Si \u201cThe Game Law Problem,\u201d showing the urgent need of \u2018uniformity of season over similar zones in different States, and, co-ordinate feginlation vy Federal ar and State Legislatures, Matteson in \"Red and hte Men tn Colorado's Game Fields\u201d telis of the rockless waste committed among the det, and illustrat the scenes by a veles es of remarkable pho leurap hs.aries H.orien ex- eine \u201cWhy Duck Shootitg Ay on the ane,\u2019 at jon Huby , Je.in \u201cOn the ve À Land;

is great interest taken in this city in the coming boxing exhibition between Harry Sneliy and Come le clerc, which is to take place at Savard Park, on Tuesday evening next.Hoth rarties have bcen undergoing serious training for some time past, Snelly teing in charge of Mr.Nolan, of Hoston, while Leclerc is in the hands of à well-known trainer from Montreal.As both men are fine exponents of the manly art, it is needless to say that g first-class scientific exhibition will te the result.Besides this event an excellent programme of songs, dances rep] to the challenge Oxford and Cambridge £ or a series of of Harvard and Ya) track games this summer agrees that New York should be the place of meeting, and that the programme should be the same as that in 1895, except that the three miles run be changed into a two miles run.Only those eligible to enter the inter-colle- giate sports of 1901 are to be eligible to take part in this contest.But the English athletes have rejected the proposal to increase the programme from nine to eleven events, on the ground that the pole-vault and 220 yards high hurdles are rot in vogue in the Oxford and Cambridge sports, and that the putting the weight,

recently been urging in Parliament the necessity of Government inspection of vessels loading full cargoes of wood, on and under deck.The following extract from the Daily Sun, of St.John, N.B., bears directly on the point at issue, as the chief opposition to Jovernment inspection comes from the Province of New Brunswick :\u2014\u201cThe Nurweglan sicamer Norden, Capt.Isdahl, bound for London with lumber and pulp, supplied hy the Messrs.Cushing, went out to Partridge Island at noon Saturday.The vessel had a hig list to port and did not sail from the island till about six o'clock yesterday morning.It is said she would neither strain nor steer, owing to her being almost over on her beam ends.and ahout 8 o'clock she returned to the anchorage ground ust outside the island.Word was sent to the city of her return and the tux Maggie M.was despatched to inquire into the cave.Later on the Maggie M.took a scow down to the ship and a portion of the deckload of lumber was removed.The tug came up with the scow fill of lumber last night and will, it is understood, En down again this morning for the purpose of relieving the Norden of some more of her deckload.* SAILED FOR QUEBEC.Ashanti,

the entrance to Ottawa of the Vanderbilt system of railways by the acquisition of the Ottawa and New York Railway line has been strengthened within the past few days.Mr, Callo- Way, president of the New York Central Railway, Dr.Webb, chairman of the directorate, and Mr.Clements, president of the Rutland Railway, were in the city yesterday, having come over the Ottawa and New York line on à tour of inspection.They travelled by special train.The railway mag nates expressed themselves as favorably impressed with the line, and their minute.inspection is construed as an indication of the probable acquisition of the road.The Ottawa and New York connects with the New York Central at Tapper Lake, and with the Rutland Railway at Moira.The Vanderbilt interests are acquiring the control of all the lines in Northern New York along with their principal connections, and il is «aid to be their in- fention of coming into the capital over the Ottawa and New York, which provides the shortest route between the city and the Metropolis.The fact of the line being but 130 miles in length leads to the conclusion that it can be operated on a very successful financial basis unless absorbed by some regular rafiway system, or else further extended in the State of New York.The Vanderhilts are sald not to be parti- culatiy favorable to the construction of any additional Hnes in the Northern part, of the Stale, and their purchase of the road al any time will consequently not, occasion any surprise.\u2018Messrs.Calloway, Webh and Clements oh [carefully examined the bridge at Cornwall, and their

nei borhood of Paris hat been the w - ful rateating man, advertised as an unique phenomenon.He was described as à ferocious savage, and looked it, having a complexion the exact hue of soot, while he went through an alarming perforinance of hideous contortions and grimaces, accompanied by jabbering and shrill shrieks, in front of the booth whereinto at intervals he retired to discuss a mea) of rats.It was an nounced by the showman that the animals, before being eaten, were not cooked in any way.The savage positively swallowed them alive.Attracted by the evident popularity of the spectacle among frequenters of fairs, t police inquired into the matter.First they attenued the performance among the spectators.Thus they ascertained that the showman did not, at ail events, delude the public.The savage undoubtedly did swallow live rats.Moreover, he accomplished another remarkable feat by tossing off a glass of keros:ne to wash down each animal.The drinking performance was ascertained to be fully as genuine as the meal of live rats.Further inquiry by the police after thin re vealed one of the most extraordinary cases of criminal abuse of human infirmity ever recorded.It was found that the so-called savage was actually a lunatic who escaped from an asylum some months ago.The state of the unfortunate man's mind explained the strangeness of his behavior.The madman has been rescued from the traveling caravan, which made a good thing out of the gruesome and melancholy exhibition of his infirmity, and the unscrupulous showman, who has turned many a dishonest penny

Amenable to Medical Treatment.Inflanination of the throat and bronchial tubes, coughs, weakness of voce, continual hawking and spitting, pain and difficulty in expectoration, Joss of flesh, siocplessness and general weakness of the system are indications of throat consumption, which is in most cases the starting point of what leads to consumption of the lungs and death.It is the old story of catching cold after cold, one upon the other.until the system is weakened and depressed and the germs of consumption find an ear/ entrance.General as well as local treatment is almolutely imperative for diseasts of this nature which \u2018fattack the constitution and aim at the vital organs of the body.To clear the throat, ease and loosen the couzh and make expectoration casy Dr.Chase's Syrup of Linseed and Turpentine is of inclculable value.It positively checks disease, and aflords relief from the distressing symptoms which fasten themselves on the victim af our javional malady.Then it Is that Dr.Chase's Nerve Food should be regularly and persistently taken to restore vitality to the system and prevent emaciation, loss of appetite, fever and (he terrible night sweals which sap the life from the weakening body.You can fight oft consumption by this combined treatment, and thousands of persons today are living witneases of the wonderful efficiency of this treatment.But the best way by far is to pre vent the necessity of a deadly combat with consumption.Call a quick halt to the cough and cold by prompt use of Dr.Chase's Syrup of Linseed and

HIN.* Three weeks ago John Lindquist, a farmer of Graceville, Minn., who im- ined some one was trying to kill him, left his home during a violent blizzard.Although a search waz keyt up for several days, no trace of him could be found.He was thinly clad, and it was supposed he was frozen to death.The other day when Edmund, Colwell, Barry, went into his field to burn a straw stack, he found Lindquist in a burrow in the straw, very much emaciated and with his feet and lower limbs frozen.Lindquist claims he had been in the stack for 32 days, during which time he has not had a morsel to eat.He obtained drink by crawling to a nearby slough.He has lost over 50 pounds in weight during his fast.At present-he is in the hospital.His feet or portions of them have to be ampu- ated.tr cf es - PUT POWDER IN THE STOVE.Niagara Falls, April 11.\u2014 A dis- tressitig actident, attended with much suffering occurred ay the home of Peter Harriet, South End, Stamford Township, yesterday.It seems his nine year oid son George had unearthed a number of bottles in the wood shed of the house into which the family have recently moved.In one of the bout- tles was a black substance which the little chap concluded was coal, and in company with bis sister Ethel he pro- cecded to empty the contents in the kitchen stove.The bottle proved.to be coarse gun powder, and when the first grain ignited by the smouldeting coals burned the boy's fingers, he drop ped the bottle.Instantly there wasa loud explosion, and when the frighten ed mother entered the kitchen she saw that her boy's face was black as coal, and little Ethel was minus her hair, it being singed off, and (Le stove was a complete wreck.It is fearcd the boy wil lose his eyesight.An invesiiga- tion showed that two large holes had been tdown in a Copper tea keltle that stood on the stove, and intervened be- {ween Ethel's face and the explosion.As it was, Ethel was badly burned around the neck.If you require a fine suit, or tweed hy

Washington, April 10.- A dejega- tion of Cubans may come to Washing ton; for one thing that it may ob tain definitely from the President and Secretary of War a construction of the Plait amendment.The third section relating to intervention is the one which meets with the greatest objection from the Cubans, and it is be lieved that the administration can convince the delegates that there is nothing but the best of intention on the part of the Government toward Cuba.The requirement that the Cubans shall adopt \u201csubstantially\u2019 the terms of the Platt amendment can be construed also.The delegation, it is sald, will learn that the Cubans can hope for no modification of the law by Congress, and that nothing can be accomplished bv waiting until another session.It modification, and that the spirit of the Platt amendment must be accepted.The delegation will be informed that they can fell the members of the convention upon their return that until the conditions of the Platt amendment are complied with the United States will continue to exercise authority in the islands under its military power, There is a desire on the part of the Cubans to have some information as tn what may be meant by coaling stations.It is understood that the dele gates have been given an intimation that the selections are not likely to be made within any of {the cities Cuba, but at points which the United States regards convenient for warships.Probably the delegation may desire additional assurances from the President on this point when it comes to the United States.ABSOLUTE of @ CURE SICK
