980 Fathoms.The sucosss of your explorations in the Arctic seas has been the world over.Your fame leaves you no room for envying that of all the intrepid seamen who have reached the Arctic regions before you in the interest of geographical science, and we are proud to claim, not only as a oo! man of ours but even as a son of the histrict of Quebec, a peaman, a bavigator who has attained distino- tion, and ons whose name the great geographers of the world are pleased to quote alongeie of Franklin, Nansen, McClure, Peary, &c.The Board of Trade therefore has deemed it its duty to acknowiedge publicly the extent of vour services as was done on an important occasion by that eminent statesman, who since ten years presides over the destinies of the country, Sir Wilfrid Laurier.We even venture to hope that helura long a substantial recogmition of your invaluable services will be proffered you by entrusting to your superintendence and direction the immense territory Canada possesses in the Arctic regions and which vou so aptly numed \u201cFrauoklin,\u2019\u201d\u2019 in honor of ome of the most renowned martyrs of geo ical science.graph Presidentsa.G.A.VANDRY, i FE THEOPH.LEVASSEUR, Secretaryebeo, 22nd February 1910, reading of the dress was sup- rtod by some interesting remarks Pom Mr.J.G.Scott.Mr.J.G.Hoott said :\u2014\u201cI have been requested to say n few words in con nootion with the presentation to Uaptain Bernier aid it gives me great pieastre to do s0, and to join in this expression of sstéem to an old friend.We do not get many people in Quebes nowadays who do remarkable service for their \u201ccountry, and as Capt.Bernier is one of them, it is; in my epin- ion, very appropriate that the Board of Trade should make tirés public de monstration of appresiation of what he has done.Captain Bernier has not only done grest service to Canada in planting our flag upon the vast areas of land in the Arctic circle which rightly belong to us, and which-Aike Alaska\u2014may ve some day, to be of grester value, than we think, but it is no exaggeration to say that he practically accomplished the northwest passage, which the hardiest navigators of the world have tried in vain for centuries to do.\u201cCaptain Bernier\u2019s career as a navi gator is well known to all of us in Quebec.When Quebec wns a ship building port he was the favorite cap tain to take new ships from Quebec to England on their first voyage, so that so long ago as 1886 he had already commanded twenty-three ships.The firm of Rom & (\u2018o., our great shipowners of those days, tell me that in 1886 their ship (\u2018ambria, a splendid Quebec built vessel, under command of Captain Bernier, made the passage from Valparaiso to Portland, Oregon, The ® M CAPTAIN BERNIER Canada\u2019s Arctic Navigator Was Given Notable Testimonial Yesterday * pative parish in T'Islet'untit he caught the \u201c\u201cArctio disease,\u201d the only remedy for which was thet discovery of the North Pole.Mis efforts to squip en expedition for the discovery Pole were set forth, end finslly bis acceptance of the command of the \u2018Arotio, in the interests of the countey.which.be ook possession of country whic took po on in the name of Canada was referred to.With his bluff, sailor-like qualities; Captain Bernier spoke in his native French, but he i lish and finished his address in that language.Captain Bernier paid s high tribute to the splendid work of the English and other discoverers who had headed former expeditions into the unknown North, and said that Canadians to-day had the opportunity to benefit from.Possession d been taken of all land lying north of 90 on Dominion Day and the British flag was planted on ter- titory abounding in coal, iron, ocop- per aud other minerals, not to speak of the fishing industry.Cook and Peary, when they returned, said they bad seen land farther north than was sever known, and named the lands respectively, Bradley and Croker Islands.But they did not land, snd it was the duty of Canada to plas the flag of Britain on these ands.The present was the time for Canada to act.In concluding his remarks Captain Bernier, paid a high teibute to the men who! accompanied him on his trips to ths Arctic.They were trus to him and to their ooun- try and were worthy of recognition.If he was engaged to make another trip, he hoped to place the \u2018 little English flag on Croker\u2019s Island, the further land north so far known.Captain Bernier\u2019s interesting address was listened to throughout with the greatest interest, and at the end he was greeted with an enthusisatic outburst of applause.Mayor Bernier, of Levis, paid a high tribute to hin namesake, Capt.Bernier, and hoped that it would not be long befpre he planted the British flag upon the North Pole.Lieut.-Col.W.Wood spoke on behalf of the Arctic Club of Canada and paid a high tribute to the gallant captain.He read a letter from Mr.G.8.Wilson, the Hon.Secretary of the Arctic Society, in which the latter stated that the So ciety desired to express ils congratulations upon the occasion of the testimonial to Captain Bernier.The Arctic Society of Canada was organized & short time ago with the pa triotie purpose of stimulating public interest in the valuable assets Canadians no doubt poswess in the Arctic regions,\u201d the letter said, \u201cand to see that thay are saleguarded for Canada end the Empire.So far the Society cannot boast of a motto, but I think it would be e; thus : \u201cWhat we have, we will hold\u2014and look vor for more.Col.Wood, in conclusion, said that Canada bad an east and a west, but no north and south.No better man than Captain Bernier could be found ta secure fot us a north, and with the aid of the Quebec Steamship Company, \u2018no doubt Canads would soon have a south in the Woat Indies.There were two Poles, and while Captain Bernier, in the course of his duty, was not permitted to go so far north, had he dove so he would have told us of the true Pole, while everybody who knew the Captain were willing to admit that he was magnetic.The meeting of the Board was one of the most interesting which has been held in a long time and the attendance was large, among those present being Messrs.G.A.Vandry, Wm.A.Marsh, 0.Hamel, President of the Cercle des Voyageurs de Commerce, A.Dumas, Capt.T.R.Desjardins, Mayor Bernier of Levis, C.H.Laurin, FE.Roumilhae, J.C.Auger, President of the Board of Trade of Levis, 0.Pouliot, F.Guns, J.Bouchard, W.J.Ray, C.DeGuire, in 36 days, a record passage, after having previously made the run front!

and now it is to be hoped thut the prospects of advancement in the | near future, that lie in store for her as a place of manufactures, a railway centre, an ocean port, and a, winter and summer's resort, will be realised, if we only continue to stand by our- solves, and the public men that have taken the lead in our behalf.The new City Council has many probkms to ; work out, with the aid of the press.Our Board of Trade must be quickeu- ed into newness of activity.Our Harbor Commission must jntevest itself in more than routine detail.We must all take part in the inception of amelior- | ative projects for civic progress of all kinds.The question of language and racial origin must be sunk out of ! sight, as it wan driven into an ob scure corner of the canvass in the con- \u201cteut \u201cfor the Mayoralty just omce.\u2018the Morning Chronicle has uttered no uncertain sound concerning the ; criminality there is in the folly of turning a -sacred thing into a political bv-word.The land and the language ol ont forefathers is something we ought all to be proud of ; but to make the knowledge we have of them an antegonism in our mutual Canadianism is akin to the stupidity of the man who opposes his own legitimate interests.For instance, what folly it would be for us to turn from the pro- porals of the \u201cCommittee of Five\u201d to make Quebec a popular winter's resort, hecause ous or two of the mem- bern of the committes happen to spenk French better hau English or English better than Freuch ?Hpw would it sound to say that any of our social \u2018clubs in the city was not worthy of i being perpetuated because the members were not nil of the same pre \u2018national origin.The thing is ridie- | ulous \u2014 an egregious blunder \u2014 one { vorthy of being set aside as worse than a crime.In our public move- | ments in behalf of Quebec, the whole community must make up its mind to stand by their common citizenship.| When the Chronicle takes up \u2018a cause in bebalf of Quebec, it is going to take it up, not because of the pre-national otigin of the leaders, but because the movement is in behalf of Quebec.jet ua therefore all get down to the wrrk in the right way.Nor is it other when the Chronicle discusses the poli- {val problems of @the times, lederal, sravinciel or municipal.We never think of making animadversions on ! the present Federal administration because Sir Wilfrid Laurier happens to have been born in one of our obscure country parishes where nothing but French is spoken.We make no objec- i tions to Messrs.Bourassa and Tarte, { with or without Sir Wilfrid Laurier's ! co-operation, entering upon a campaign in the country parishes to «priok- en a right intelligence over the latter'a navy bill.In the discussion of \u2018that bill Sic Wilfrid onght to be no more to any of us than our Canadian Premier, who speaks French and English equally well.That he would stand for more than this among those whom he classifies as his \u2018\u2018compatriots,\u201d does not make his attitude inwards Canadian interests right and all other attitudes worthy of dire condemnation.There was no quarter given to the so-called appeal to a race or language cry in oùc late disputings as to who should be our Mayor; and there ia no reason that it should ever be given quarter in any public ques tion, now we have settled down to the work in a right way in behall of Quebec and Canada.We say these things this morning as prelacing our advo- cacies, civie, provincial and federal, for many deys to come; sud as a getting on to common ground of debate.A CLEAR STATEMENT ON THE NAVY BLL While there seema to have been esid all that can be said about the Laurier navy bill, leading as it does, as Sir Wilfrid Laurier bolda the rudder, into an academic discussion of independemos for Canada, Mr.Hughes, of Ontarie, has won additional laurels to his already well established fame as a debater, by delivering one of the most pertinent and persuasive speeches that have been uttered since the lenders hail their say on the navy question.Aud thin is what Nr.Hughes tells us abibut the mandate given in all loys] loving kindners to Canada by the Imperial Conference.when the question of co- | operation came up over the prestige i of the navy of the Empire.We all | know naw, from the actual records of the Conference how Sir Wilfrid Iavurior, 8ir Frederick Borden and the Honi Louis P.Brodeur, betraved the loyalty of Canade st that conference, and how they have ever since tried to mis lead the people of Canada ne to what tranepired at its rederunts.Tast vear the House of Commons nt Ottawa solemnly passed a resolation in terms {of the mandate of the Imperial Con: ference, and thin in what Me, Hughes haw to say sbout thas resolution and « ; .! how the Government bas been making believe to carry i out :\u2014 \u2018The absolute unanimity of the House was behind that resolution instructing the Government to act.First, there was to be spesdy assistance.Does the Government's bill propose speedy as sistance ?To my mind it proposes no assistance whatever, and certainly there is no pretence that there will be any assistance forthcoming for the next four or five years.That resolution proposed co-operation.Is there any co-operation provided by this resolution ?I fail to find it.That re ution gave ths (Government a mandate last vear to stand by the unity of the Empire.1 failed to find in the bill proposed any provision for standing behind the unity of the Fmpirefor the same end.I find nothing in this bill providing for the co-operation of these Gests towards the same end.Co-operation means operating together Co-operation mesns mutual help.The bill before the House does not miar- antee mutual help.Jtis a jug-handied policy ; we are always to receive the help of Britain, but Canada will help Britain according to her own sweet will.Co-operation means reciprocal assistance proposed or guaranteed.It means concurrent effort, and under the bill beforé the House there is no proposition for: comeurrent effort.\u201d meter gr THE GLOBE, MR.CROCKETT AND DR.PUGSLY.The Toronto Globe has been making another of ita characteristic \u2018 mistakes\u201d of which the Mail has been of late drawing up quite a large list, notably the statement that the House of Commons rose en masse and sang God Save the King after an eloquent speech from Sir Wilfrid Laurier, whereas the incident took place aftec Mr.Borden's historic utterances over the navy question.Now the Globe has been taking Dr.Pugsiqr's worl for it, that the wharf at Pink Rock ix a public wharf in the possession of Dr.Pugsley\u2019s department, and Mr.Crocket has been proving before the House of Commons that the anid wharf virtually belongs to a private company of gypsum \u201cexporters.Appropriations have been made for the said wharf by Dr.Pugaley's department to the tune of $15,500, end Me: Crocket proved conclusively from epreapondente in his hand that the Whar! legally belonged to the New, Brunswick Gypsum Company\u2014the Globe: and the Minister of Public Works to™he contrary notwithstanding.No \u2018wonder that the Globe and the Hon.Dr.Pugsley have blood in their eves.against Mr.Croeket, an they had blood in their eyes against those who uncovered the boodle-lines in the Richibucto sawdust deal and the St.Johm dredging ree hate.\u2018The Minister started out with the statement,\u201d said Mr.Crocket at | the end of the debate, on the matter, | \u201cthat he could not corroborate the statement 1 had made ; and vet before | he concluded his speech, he himself absolutely corroborated the precise state- went }-had made, namely, that the wharf in question had not passed irom the (iypsum Company to the Crown, as alleged by the Toronte Globe.\u201d When the Minister of Public Works is battling for his estimates, he may have quite a number \u2018of members questioning him on the \"true inwardues\u2019 | of some of his book-keeping.Iu this case there in a new wharf built out at the end of an old wharf, but they are both being repaired by Government appropriations, and reslly constitute but one wharf, utilised free of charge by the Gypsum Company and by nobody else worth talking about.Yet Mr.Crocket has to be disciplined all the same when the next general elec- ! tion comes round.THE SHRIEVALTY OF QUÉBEC.Quebec in the meantime has no sheriff ; and one does not know nhe- ther anybody is running after the position, or the position is running after an incumbent.Such positions do not generally remain vacant for long, when political patronage can be quickened ifito action in favor of this or that candidate.Bome say the vacancy in being kept open for (he Hom.Adelard Turgeon.But Mr.J'ur- geon does not seem to favor the iden, and public buniness can hardly be held in suspense, should his appointment be delayed beyond a ressousble time.Resides, there is a cass in court between the Harbor Commission and Mr.Turgeon which may interfere with that gentleman's acceptance of the position, wince it would never do for Quebec to have s sheriff appointed whose first: duty might be to lay hands on himself to deliver up cer: tain properties that may be proven not to be hin by right of legal tenure.The Chronicle once thought to hasten lega] action in connection with Judge Cannon's report, only to have ita counsel misconstrued as a lack of loy- alte towards Sir Lomer Gouin, aur Proviveial Premier, which it certeinly was never i to be, hut far other.Yet, notwithetanding all vollavs of swear-words disguised that have heen hurled at that good advire, we may again venture to say that Quebec is hardly up to the stendard of other cities to be without a sheriff.And eo, in behalf of publis b.siness, we world suggest that the vacancy.be filled at the enrfiert convenienes, by those wbo have the appointment in their gift.Wa do not feel a morrel overcome hy the volleys af awenr- words disguised ; tut pirblie huniness the | The Minister of Publie Works je.doing Lis best \u2018\u201c\u201cto hedge\u201d on that Richibuoro sawdust desl, and has been offeriog for sale a part of the worthless stuff, which he told Mr.Loywie he bed no imolination of parting with.And now when he is pressed as to the parties whom he expects to take some of it.off his hands he has been forced to answer that it is the Messrs.S.& | P.Logie who are the possible pur chasers, amid the laughter of the whole House.The question about that sawdust deal, it seems, isn\u2019t all \u201cexploded\u201d yet, not until it comes to be \u201cexploded\u201d a secordl time in the usual way, The Rev.Prof.MacNaughton, of Mo Gill University, has been writing an article for the University Maxazine, in which he claims that the story of the \u201cBirth in Bethlehem'\u2019 is but the dream of a post.Many peopie in Quebec re member Prof.MacNaughton\u2019s visit to Quebec when he preached the anniversary sermon for the St.Andrew'a; Bociety, in which he told the Anglican, Methodist and Paptist Scotemen present that they had missed it by not being Presbyterians as well as Scotsmen.Now he has rim awsy from the Presbytarien Confession of Faith himself, to which be subscribed in the most solemu manner, when he was or- deined, and when\u2019 he was appointed Profsssor of Church History in Queen's University.It is not to be wondered at, therefore, that a correspondent of the Mantreal Ælerald advises the versatile Professot to repudiate his connection as a minister of the denomi- pation he so highly lauded when he paid his visit to Quebec.The little Province of Prince Edward Island hed besa able to show au encouraging balance sheet for the past year in connection with its exchequer.It is not generally known that the ls- land bas sll the paraphemalia of government which Ontario has, to oversees the affairs of a population no more than ons of our medium sized cities, and still holds stubbornly sloof from the movement in favor of Maritime union.The Hon.Justios Lomgley, of Halifax, who is to address the Canadian Club of Quebec this week, has quite a high opinion of the political stock down in his quarter of Canada, having recently said that \u201cif political conditions should reduce our parliamentary ropresentation in the future to one member, and that meur- ber should be a Tupper, a Howe, a Tilley, or a Fielding.we need nc.worry over lack of influence at Ottawa.Ons man of that, type is a majority in a parliament of the average quality.\u201d The \u2018\u201cight little\" island\u201d has nleo produced some able men among its Coles and Popes and Davies's, though there is a complaint that the \u2018\u201c old stock of brilliants\u201d is pretty well dyimg out.The Hon.Clifford Sifton has made the announcement that he has made up his mind to retire from Canadinn political life.It says something for our Canadian political life that it has withdrawn ita confidence from the Hon.Clifford Riftom, though it wns reported some time ago that Sir Wilfrid Laurier had it in mind to remew some of the decaying timbers of his Cabinet, by dovetailing Mr.Sifton in the affair again.Nr.Sifton is a man of great ability ; but, like Sir Chartes Dilke, he is better out of the public eye for some time yet than as a Minister of the Crown.There are ome or two others of the Liberal camp whose absence from Ministerial circles would be more of a blessing to public morality than their presence.Lame Back Just the Sort of Case That Proves to the World That the Best Liniment Ever Made Is NERVILINE When it comes to\u2019 determining the real merit of a medicine, no weight of evidence is more convincing than the straightforward statement of some reliable and well-known person that has been cured.For this reason we print the verbatim sistement of Juan E.Powell, written from his home in Carleton.\u2018\u2018T am a strong, wer: ful man, six feet tall, and weigh nearly two hundred.1 have been acous.tomed all my life to lift great weight, but one day 1 overdid it, and wrenched my back badly.Every tendon and muscle was sore, To stoop or bend wan agony.1 had a whole bottle of Nerviline ru on in one day, and by night I was well again.1 know of no liniment possess ing one-half the penetration and pain.subduing properties of Nerviline.1 urge its une strongly an an iovalu finiment and household curs for minor ailments, such nn straine, sprains, ewellings, neuralgia, sciatica, lumbago, rheumatism, and muscular pain.No batter medicine for curing pain was aver put in a hotila than Nerviline-over one million bottles used every yenr\u2014better try it vourself, 5c.or five for 81.AL all dealets or The Catarrhozone Co., Kingston, Ont.LETTER NO.4769 CAP ROUGE, Bujldiag lots are now offered to the public at attractive prices and on lib.oral terme, hts at Cap (hres minutes\u2019 walk ?te ee, minutes\u201d walk from nice beach, bostiox, bathinp.etc.;

also, that ten square feet of uncovered pipe will waste two tons of coal \\ per year.Arbestos-covered Pipe loses practically nothing in the, whole value ont of every a of fuel.Asbestos is unique in that it is the only known fireproof fibre.Although to look at it one would think it to be as combuatible as tow, yet the fiercest heat cannot consume it.The strength of the fibre is not affected by oxdinary acids even after days of exposure.Notwithstanding the delicacy of wshestos fibre, a single strand of it can be spun to weigh less than ous ounce to a hundred yards, while cloth can be manufactured from it which will weigh less than eight ounces to the square yard.Success fui efforts are now being made by the Amalgamated Asbestos Corporation, tos in the world, to develop the use fulness of this wonder of nature still further.At the present time asbes- tas is an essential element in the world's gress, and is used in a thousand ways.ASK YOUR GROCER FOR TT my SEE OUR WINDOWS | For Something Ecosemical, Wholesome and Attractive in LANCLEY WARE HOT WATER MUFFIN PANS I TEA POTS COFFEE POTS HOT WATER JUGS TERT This ware will produce better results for making Tes or Coffee than any other kind on the market.P.GOLAN 138 St.John St.CASTLE BLEND TEAS AND COFFERS.WEDNESD.saving in power and fuel.Comparathe largest single producer al nsbes- | reread] | Telephone.334 FEBRUARY 38, 1910 Ont n Hiri Ghinic compo Fabrique Sirest and Fest of Mouxisie NI.\u2014 Fire Sots and Fenders In rass and Wrought Iren Finish\u2014 Fire Sores deal ose, age Brass Yea Kettles on Stan Coffee Machines, \u2018 Chafing Dishes Kitohen Utensils.Osneral and Heavy Nardware and and Sporting Geece of olf Besertatione, $.J.SHAW &CO 18 OT.JOHN STREET, & T.Cor, Mountain HA and Notre Bause Star Lower Fours TELEPHONSS Upper Town $73 Lower Town 28 Lunn's & Floming'e Skates pull Une of Stber Manufacture Shin Pade and Goaler Pade, Heokeys, Sleigh Cutters, Snow Shoes, FEBRUARY SALE I have Inaugurated a Qenuine Cheap Sale in all kinds of Furniture.James | Perry, 223 st.Paul St GREAT CLEARG SAL (ENTIRE STOCK REDUCED GENUINE REDUCTIONS | 20 per cent off Blankets, Quilts, Sheeting, Pillow Cotton, Towels, Doylies, Napkins Table Damasks.\u2018Terms Striotly Cash Fancy Dress Goods, hall pries.Down Quilts, one third off.Fancy Wool Gloves, half price.Embroideries, ome-third of.Men's Wool Shirts, at 20 p.e.Meu's Wool Drawers, at 20 p.& Ladies\u2019 Wool Vests, at 20 pe.Ladies\u2019 Wool Drawers, at 20 p.& Quality in Black Dress Goods ALL REDUCED BLACK VOILE, sll red 490;

round closed he dropped Wolgast iu the middle of the ring with a similar blow.Three were tolled before Wolgast bis feet.The crowd prepared to leave the Arens as the word went from bench to bench that another boy had fallen victim to the Dape.But in the next round Wolgast recuperated and from them on slowly but surely wore Nelson down.For 12 rounds before the finish Nelson seemed bewildered and his blows were delivered as though his arms were stiff.From the 30th round Nelson could hardly see or hear, The left side of his face had lost all semblance of its former contour.He st and hung on.In the 37th round he was all but out, In the 38th round John Robmson, Nelson\u2019s manager, wanted to throw the sponge into the ring, but Abdul the Turk, another of the seconds, tore it from his hands and threw it into the bucket.Robinson p on the verge of bears, that his man was beaten.When the 40th came Referee Smith asked Nelson if he wanted to uit.Nelson, unable to talk, merely hin head.After 30
