Street, Quebec .I he @uebeg Garomale QUEBEC, JANUARY 7, 1911, errs THE FORE FORESTRY CONVENTION.The Forestry Convention, to be \u201cheld here January 18-20, wilt be one of the most important ever held, both on account of the vital problems to be discussed and of the prominent men who will take part in the discussion.These problems include: \u2014 Regulations of the Government in Relation to the Lumber and Pulp Teade.Protection of Forests Against Fire.Responsibility of the Railways in the Matter of Forest Fires.The Management of Forests in Other Countries as Compared with What Is Being Done on Similar Lines in Canada.The Advisability of Tree Planting in This Province with a View to Reclaiming Sand Dunes.The Management of Water Resources.Forest Administration.Forestry Education, Amongst the speakers will be the Hon.Clifford Sifton, chairman of the Commission; Hon.Sidney Fisher, | Senator Edwards, H.S.Graves, the Chief Forester of the United States, wlio sutceeded Gifford Pinchot; E.E.Ring, Forest Commissioner of Maine; R.H.Campbell, Dominion Superintendent of Forestry; Dr.E.B.Fernow, Dean of the Faculty of Forestry of the University of Toronto; Dr.C.Gordon Hewitt, Dominion Entomologist; G.C.Piche, Chief Forester of Quebec; W.J.Hall, P.Bedard and others.The programme, which is not yet definitely laid down, will call on the first morning for addresses from the Governor General, Prime Minister, Mgr.Roy, Bishop Dunn, Sir Lomer Gouin and others.The conservation of our forest resources is.a matter upon which our prominent men of all shades of politics are agreed.\u201cMy experience,\u201d says Earl Grey, \u201chas been sufficient to impress me with the urgent desirability of focussing the best brains of the Dominion on the immediate consideration of what shall be done with our forests.\u201d Sir Wilfrid eays: \u201cThe forestry question is one which, by associations, by meetings, by lectures and by every possible method, should be presented to the ever close attention of the Canadian public, collectively and individ- | ually.\u201d Mr.Borden considers that \u201cof all our wonderful natural resources none are more important than our forests.\u201d The Forestry Convention, there- i fore, should be welcomed since its object is the awakening and informing of public opinion in the effort to pre: vent the destruction of our forests and to bring about thelr highest utilization ard development.And, as the consideration of our forests involves the conservation of many others of our natural resources, it affects many who are not even aware of the fact.CONCERTED ACTION.The approaching session of the Provincial Legislature will be opened next Tuesday, and among the principal measures to be introduced, as far as Quebec is concerned, will be the amendments to the Quebec City Charter.\u2018The city is asking for permission to borrow a very large sum of money for permanent works, etc, which are, no doubt, badly needed.At the same time, howev er, the borrowing of this money cannot fail to entail an increased burden tor the already overtaxed ratepayer.Ji the Quebec bill is allowed to be introduced without any opposition from the citizens, it will certainly go through.Those who object to the amendment calling for these extra borrowing powers\u2014and they are apparently very much in the majority\u2014should form a Citizens\u2019 Committee to watch the course of events in the House, and, if they are serious, ta enter their objections before the Private Bills Committee when the bill in question comes up.Anonymous letters to the press may do a certain amount of good, but a far more practical course would be for the writers to organize some concerted plan of action, An amendment 1b the City Charter, which public opinion leads us to believe would be most popular, would be à reduction in the number of aldermen, as it is ridiculous that a city with a population of about 80,000 people should have 34 aldermen, when such cities as Boston are content with a matter of nine or ten and have far more civic affairs to administer.Ft would be much better for the city of Quebec to \u2018wv an alderman for each of the \u2018wc.wards and pay these a salary, or to have a salaried Board of Control.Under existing conditions much of the City Council's time is wasted in the discussion of paltry and personal affsire and very important measures are allowed to pass without the consideration to which they are entitled, \u201ca Lug BATTLEFIELDS PROJECT.Whilst the Premier of the Dominion is in town it would do no harm to acquaint him with the sentiment of the citizens with regard to the way in which they have been regaled (save the mark!) with information by the Battlefields Commission, which, when all is said and done, is accountable to the public for its stewardship in connection with the administration of the funds collected for the nationalization of the Battlefields Park.We notice that the first part of the session is already over, and no mention of the necessary legislation to invest the Commission with powers of expropristion for the furtherance of this project has been mode in the House.Senator Landry has put a number of questions in the Upper House, and these will be answered about the middle of the month.But so far the rate of progress has been far from commensurate with the time expired since the collection of funds, and, if the Commission is hampered by the lack of suitable powers, then all efforts should be concentrated on the enacting of the legislation required at the earliest opportunity.THE DISPENSARY.It is very evident that the Anti- Tuberculosis League has lost very little time in idle dalliance since its meeting of December 13th.Since that time the various sub-committees have held several meetings, and as a result a dispensary will be opened about the 20th of this month.This dispensary will be situated between St.Roch and St.Sauveur wards, on the Boulevard Langelier.Grauitous treatment will be given, and patients will be received three days in each week.There is little doubt that no better choice could have been made, us the dispensary will thus be in the place where it is likely to prove most beneficial.League membership tickets will be on sale in the course of the next few days, and in order that all may have the opportunity of interesting themselves in this great work of charity it has been decided to dispose of these tickets for the modest sum of fifty cents, a sum which will be easily within the reach of all.The publicity committee will be in a position to give illustrated lectures in any part of the city towards the end of the present month, and afl organized societies, such as labor societies, mutual benefit societies, religious or charitable organizations, irrespective of race or creed, who wish to avail themselves of these illustrated lectures, may do so by making a written request to the secretary of the publicity committee, Anti-Tuberculo- sis League, 133 Boulevard Langelier, Quebec.This same committee is at present organizing a \u201cTag-Day\u201d throughout the entire city, to be held on Mardi Gras.The lady patronesses of the leayg.c are evincing a deep interest in this affair, which in itself is a sufficient guarantee of its unqualified success.We understand that all the committees are working hard, and the league will soon be in a position to give more tangible proof of the efforts which it is making to lessen tuberculosis .in Quebec City.THE LONDON POLICEMAN.The recent sensational encounter be.tyeen the London policemen and the suppcsed Russian anarchists in the East End of London presented many extraordinary features of interest and has brought the London \u201cbobby very much into the limelight.It began with the shooting\u2014one might better say the murder and attempted mur- der\u2014of five brave and defenceless po-, licemen in Houndsditch in the week preceding Christmas.According to the Daily Mail of that week, the assassin gang consisted of four men\u2014Levi, or Goldstein (who is suspected of the robbery of the Ullian jewellery store in Boston), Dutch Fritz, Peter the Painter, Yourka and a woman.Some time ago they rented a house in Cutler street, Houndsditch, and from the back of this house they tunnelled through à brick wall to gain access to à jeweller's shop.The jeweller's safe is said to have contained £30000 worth of valuables.Whilst at work the burglars were overheard and the alarm was given to the police, who, on attempting te take them, were met with à murderous fusillade from within the house.According to the account of the London newspapers there were five policemen\u2014Sergeants Tucker, Bentfeydand Bryan, and Constables Choate | and Woodham.When the door of the house was, opened Bentley was shot immediately and fell with his body lying half on the doorstep and | half within the house.Sergeant | Tucker sprang to the open door.There was n second shot and he staggered back and turched helplessly down the lgne, only to fall dead in a few moments.The three remaining policeman, unarmed though they were, made a headlong rush at the door, and were greeted with another fusil-\u2019 iade.Suddenly one of the burgiars sprang from behind the door and rushed down the alley, firing right and left as he ren.\u201cIt was then,\u201d says the Mail, \u201cthat Constable Choate performed an act of splendid heroism.He had been wounded twice.The spectators, cowering in what shelter they conld find, have no doubt of this.With wounds in his side and thigh, Constable Choate sprang upon the fugitive, seek- \u2018 ing vainly to wrest the revolver from his hand.\u201cFor five seconds the pair struggled.\u2018The burglar forced his revolver against the constable\u2019s body and fired.Still Constable Choate struggled.The revolver sounded agin, and even then Choate fought on.\u201cThen from behind he was shot again and again by a comrade of the man with whom he had grappled.When he was at last taken to the London Hospital it.was found that Choate had received twelve separate wounds before expiring.\u201d But the one-sided fight was not over yet.The two remaining policemen attacked the house and were in their turn shot down.Two other po- ticemen, who had heard the revolver shooting, rushed up and, seeing their comrades on the ground, continued the assault.But by this time the murderers were outside the house and made good their escape.Since that time something like a hundred detectives, some armed and some not, have worked with eagerness through the alleys of the East End to round up the Houndsditch gang and to revenge the death of their comrades, and, it would seem, the bitterest drop in their cup was the fact that the services of the soldiers were called in to aid them, an action which with justice they consider a reflection on the force.It is bardly necessary to say that this encounter of the unarmed police- ; men with fully armed aliens, who shot them down without any possi- | bility of reprisal, has excited a demand for the arming of the guardians of the law and an almost hysterical outcry against the harboring of disreputable and criminal aliens.It is argued that the size of the bullet wounds and the rapidity of the fire clearly evidenced that automatic pistols (presumably the Browning pistol, which is the favorite weapon of the Russian anarchist) were used.The London papers say that the wonder is not that there have been such outrages as these, but that, with the tens of thousands of Russian revolutionaries who have poured into East London during the years of ferment from 1905 to 1908, such outrages have not been even more frequent.It is Geneva and London that are the two main hotbeds of anarchy, so that if more stringent regulations are adopted with regard to aliens in London, their opportunities should be somewhat circumscribed.It is advanced against the arming of the London police with revolvers that, if this were done, some young constables would use their weapons unnecessarily and the shooting of innocent people, such as has been known in New York, would ensuc.Such accidents happen in modf cities where the police are armed with revolvers.But this argument is as nothing when we consider how intolerable it is that public servants should be exposed to being shot down thus defenceless.It appears that the London Metropolitan police authorities are averse to any general arming of the men.\u201cThey retain powers,\u201d says the Mail, \u201cto equip the policemen with weapons whenever they wish and they never hesitate to do so in times of real need.\u201d ~ 1f the Houndsditch case does anything it should serve to emphasize the utter sbsurdity of such a condition.Possibly it would require such a case as the wholesale extermination of five policemen to convince the authorities that there was any \u201creal need\u201d Perhaps when Constables Choate, ctc, were dead they might have been disposed to arm them.If there ever was a case of locking the stable door after the horse had been stolen it is this.As no one can foresee when the \u201cneed\u201d will arise, so measures should invariabiy be taken to prevent it.The Paris police authorities believe in arming, and practically ali their men carry a loaded revolver and a sabre.The Beriin police carry a sword and automatic pistol, but their methods are hardly likely to commend themselves to citizens of the British Empire.In Russia, too, the police are armed, but with inferior and sometimes almost useless weapons.It is said that during an anarchist riot in Russa the police had old-fashioned revolvers, some of which refused to pull, while the anarchists had Browning pistols, and more policemen were shot by the better armed rebels in attempting to fire their revolvers than would have been the case had the police had no weapons st all.Yet, even though the police of London are unarmed, the'r courage and sense of duty make them as much feared as the police of all other cqun- tries | held in Halifax last summer.In London the policeman stands for the very pick of th edefenders of {aw and order in the world.His courtesy, his courage, his honesty and his common sense have long since won him the golden opinions of every thinking man.\u201d There are

moves, and mates, and slays, An done by ode back in the closet lays.And what a game it has been during 1910.Standing ss though on a lofty pinnacle and looking back over the asoves which were made during tbe year which is now in its dying days, we see but few changes on the board; pieces bave bea moved and returned and the game recommences for 1911 almost as it commenc- od for 1810.But Same we loved, the loveliest and the best, That time and Fate of all their vintage prest, Have drunk their cup à round or two before, And one by ove crept silently to rest.Edward the peacemaker, has gone ; Floreace Nghtingale, the lady of peace, has gone; Tolstoy, the apostle of peace, has gone, mourned by \u2018\u2018us, that now make merry in the room they left.\u2019\u2019 The angry epirit of revolution swept in hurried flight from east to west, dis- turbiag Spain, carrying away the monarchy of Portugal, leaving death and destruction behind in a brief visit to Mexico, and stirring revolt into bloodshed in other countries of Southern America.The parliaments of the world each dealt with their own crises; Great Britain with its budget aad House of Lords compaigns could attract but little syem- pathy from Germany or France, where socialists propaganda harried the eon- stitutions.America bad its own troubles, woatly fiscal, Canada having a never end: ing source of dispute in its naval aspirations.All the chief countries bad their quota of strikes and labor disputes, Canads, Great Britain and France with their railroad men.The United States looked aghast at scenes of violence and death in the Pitsburg strikes, whilst Germany saw 150,000 Berlin builders leave work.Loss of life and property by the | violence of nature, nided by man's carelessness, was heavy, though perhaps not much beyond the average.Canads wil remember 1010 à & year of fires and railway collisions; France looks back on the floods in the valley of the Seine; Great Britain to the storms whish swept ber cosats and the disssters af the men who worked beneath the land's sur fate.Mine disssters also took their toll in the United Sites, whieh again suffer ed from fires and accidents, whilst Italy ones more bowed its head to clondbursts sad veleanio eruptions.No gret books stand out in one\u2019s memory in the land of literature, but the nister art of musie saw two ro.marksble additions,

England and France, respectively.The greatest progress was made in aviation, which also provided many sensations.The English Channel was crossed sad recrossed several times by sero- plane and airship and a startling flight was made from London to Manchester by Henry Paulban in a race with Grahame White.The first aeroplane meet in Canada was held at Lake Side, sear Montreal.Many \u2018\u2018airmen,\u2019\u2019 however, met their deaths, somet snes through their daring feats, but more often through accidents to the machinery in mid-air.Every country with the exception of Canads where aero meets were held had one or more of these disasters to record, all of them of terrible and awe-inspiring nature Bo 1911 finds us with the countries of the world at peace with each otber, but racked with their own domestic affairs.Signs of the Millannium, say some; of Armageddon, say the less optimistic.Wood's OUR CARPET DEPARTMENT.If you require for next spring carpets,

opened and out came Regan, the bird man, who attended to the wants of the feathered charges of the Central Park - Zoo.\u201cRight you are,\u201d said Regan, \u201cbut there's a funny story about tbat par- | rot which I guess you've never heard.\u201d \u201cYou've certainly taken time by the forelock in teaching him that greeting,\u201d said Hurtin.Is \u201cThere you are wrong,\u201d replied the bird man.\u201cJ haven't taught him at all, You know the Pirate was once a ship's pet.Well, a retired sea captain has been coming here every few days since late in the summer.He stands in front of the parcot cage by the lour and repeats some short sentence until the Pirate begins to repeat it after him.It was this captain who taught him to say \u2018Merry Christmas\u201d \u201cWhen we first got that bird, as you probably remember, he was about the most profane parrot the Zoo ever shel\u2018ered.He never says 3 cuss word now.And its ail due to that old seaman.The parrot has been taught so many new words that he's forgotten his profanity.New he says: \u2018God bless you, and \u2018The Lord's Will be done,\u2019 and other like sentiments which would warm the heart of a missionary.\u201cThe oid sea captain tells me that he used to be quite as profane as the Pirate, and that he suspects that he had a hand in teaching the Pirate many of his objectionable expressions.He says that the Pirate, or a bird strangely like him, was obtained from anativeof a litle town on the Orinoco river, many years ago.He was purchased by the cook of a sailing vessel on which the captain was mate.He was named \u201cPirate\u201d because of his proficiency in swearing.When the cook left the ship, the Pirate stayed on, for the captain had taken a great fancy te him.And when the captain died the parrot became the property of the mate, who soon afterward was made captain, For several years the Pirate continued his sea-faring life.But thete came a time whe: my friend, the sea captain, retired to spend his.last years on shore.ilis wife was not fond of parrots, so the captain turned him over to a friend, and that friend to another friend and s0 on until he was presented to the Zoo.\u201cThat as you know, was several years ago.My friend, the old sea captain, had completely lost sight of the Pirate until one day he came in here just as the Pirate was swearing in his best style.Tie captain recognized him at once.Then and there he began his work of remodelling the morals of the bird.\u201d \u201cLet us pray,\u201d came in high-pitched tones from the Pirate, and as Keeper Hurtin went close to the parrot cage, the reformed ship's pet cocked his head to one side and exclaimed: \u201cMerry Christmas, and don't forget the dumb critters!\u201d BROWN BOOTS AT BALL LEADS TO DUELS.London, Jan.6\u2014Some 122 duels are promised at Nagyvarad, Hungary, as the result of a fauit in costume at a ball.\u2018The President of the local Union of Solicitors attended a dance given by law students in a light blue summer suit and brown boots.The townsfolk also invited to the ball interpreted this costume as an insult aimed at them.A meeting of the law students, called to debates the question, proved such a lively affair that not only did the police have to break it up, but all these duels are threatened as à result, THE SIAMESE AT HOME.Describing their national eharsoter as \u2018docile, indolent, timid, guy,\u2019\u2019 & writer haa said: \u2018The Siamese sre devoted to the \u201c-liday-makings and ceremonies sand Jrocusions which accompany the .tant anniversaries or incidente of life, death and religion, and whieh cause an infinite amount of money to be squandered and time lost.When s Xing or prinee is cremated, or when a crown prisoe hae his opkmot shaved off, the whole sity (Bang: kok) is gives up te idlences for days, and the barbaric splendor of the eeremoniai in tnique even in the Far Eeat.\u201d\u2019 The marriage customs of Siam are peculiar, When a wedding is contemplated the ne- gotistions are esrried out by elderly women, who macertein if the intended bridge and bridegroom are suitable and arrange ail details.Bot, with all their faalte, the Gimmes are s charming peo ple, lovable, gifted] and eutured.Their chisf failings are lethargy sad love of pleasure, and they have the sharasteristic caprisionssess of all Oriemtals in their srinonrs, I:m'hed or extended, of course, seconding te (heir sorial pesition and balance at the dent, To the late King, for example, wives were as on no they were to Solomon, for it is the custem of (he Slamens autosrney to dedicate its most attractive daughters te the .| in Canadian business come from Montit real, .amounts of money obtained from b - ; YAO want loans on liquid securities.voice, sounding as if it came from aj Co 7 SATURDAY, JANUARY 7, 191.Toplos of the Day PRENCH CAPITAL FOR CANADA (Toronto Mail.) Encouraging reports as to the success of efforts to eniist French capital There, it is said, considerable French leaders and investors are being supplied to brokers aud others Canadian financiers who are using their influence to attract Freneh capital to sound investment opportunities in Canada sre doirg a service to the country, as well as to the persons and iustitutions whose funds they are\u2019 seeking to engage.| e time is not far distant when Canada will be absorbing &s much of | the money of trans-Atlantic investors as the United States was a generation ago.The securities behind the Canadian issues coming into favor with British, French and other outside dispensers of capital will be superior to those behind the stocks and bonds of our neighbors at that time, Our banking law, our company laws, all our laws relating to property, are moré assuring, generally speaking, than were those on which the British investors made their commitments across the line previous to the repeal of the purchase clause of the Sherman Silver Act.Better still, the leaning of the Canadian people is as much towards conservativeness and safety as the leaning \u201cof the American people was in those days towards economic insecurity.France is a country whose people have the saving habit, and whose financiers have a strong preference for investments that can be readily realized upon, the governing idea apparently being to keep the country\u2019s great accumulating stores of money available for any crisis that may have to be suddenly met.Political considerations appear to be upper- a

living'in a petiod of extreme activity.We are using our étrength without counting the coû : the mo& 2, most in the minds of those who handle the French people's money, and\" the main political consideration is military.French money was freely! loaned to Russia in her war with Japan, notwithstanding that the funds so applied were to be put to unproductive use and though they would be in anything but liquid form.But they were to enable an ally to cope with its enemy, and thus indirectly were intended to keep France's own position from being weakened against possible aggressors.When Turkey recently sought to float a loan in France the purse strings were tightened because it was believed that German influence was in the ascendant at Constantinople, and German influence is not looked upon as pro-French.If France's enormous deposits of money could be freely drawn upon for the material upbuilding of this country it wouid be a great compliment as well as 8 vast advantage to Canada.United States borrowers, led by Mr.J.P.Morgan, have been striving for some years to find the \u201copen sesame\u201d that will cause French coffers to yield up some of their money for the purchase of \u201cSteel\u201d and \u201crails\u201d and other classes of United Statés issues.They have had only very moderate success.At the same time French bankers and financial agents are on the look-out for first-class opportunities for permanent investment, and during the last year represents- tives of such interests have paid visits to Canada to make special studies of capital openings here.UNITED STATES DEFENSE OF PHIT-IPPINE ISLANDS.Washington Jan.6\u2014Should an emergency arise in the Philippines the United States would have to depend upon native troops for the defense of the islands, and the Filipino would be found a loyal soldier, according to the Pershing, commander of the Depart ment of Mindanao.\u201cThe difficulty and expense of maintaining a large force of American troops here for purposes of defence against foreign invasion is evident,\u201d says General Pershing, but that we should have a force ready for such an emergency needs no discussion.Should the emergency arise we would have to depend upon native troops.The authorized strength and organization of native scouts should be utilized as a nucleus to train a native army for this purpose.It would be an easy matter to inaugurate a scheme that would provide, within a few years, an adequate and reliable force for defence.\u201d In regard to the faithfulness of the scouts to the United States, General Pershing adds that the officers who ave had the largest experience with them express a firui belief .in their loyalty.General Pershing suggests that the tour of duty of American troops in the Philippines he made four yvers, as in the present term of two years the soidiers hardly get acquainted.| W annual report of Brig.-Gen.John J.| elementary prudence counsels us to rebuild our strength:

Crown is the link to which his subjects in every clime willingly attach themeelves.\u2019\u2019 27 = >= slit te > de TAM lio MAN nt te je ri dE A\u201d wr.\u201c | AM SATISFIED THAT meer \u201cFRUIT-A-TIVES\u201d CURED ME OF SCIATIG R EUMATISM AND \u201cFRUIT-A-TIVES\u201d WiLL OUFE ANYFNE McCMILLAN®6 CORXER, ONT., 8RrT.30th, 1910.comedy, ¢/Fruitatives\u2019\u2019 is à perfect punacea for Ebeumstiemyears, I suffered distressing pain froin Scintiex, or =-istien Rheuyour for days at a time, 2nd not beiuy Re va L wont wo different doctors who told me there was no use ng Ab ng, it wou away.They gave me muetzrd plasters and other remedies that did Le god.Plsaters box no effect ve to blister me and make raw sores ov the place applied to .| took many advertised res.edies without bewefit, but, furtunately, two years ago, 1 got \u2018\u2018 Fruita-tives'\u2019, and they cured me.Since then I take them oceasionally and keep free from pain.satisfied '\u2018 Fruit-a-tives\u2019\u2019 cured me of Rheumatism, and they will sure anyone who takes them as directed.1 cen coneequently reccinmend thea: to any Rheumatic sufferer, and hope they will try them.Mr.J.8.Munroe of Monckland Station is where I purchase them, and he recommnends them, also.12 this letter would be of value to you, I lish it, as well as wy accompanying photograph.(Signed) JOHN B.McDONALD.most everybody in Stormont County, Ontario, knows \u2018\u2018Joba Me- For twenty-three years, he has been \u2018\u2018the village blacksmith\u2019\u2019 for a good part of the population.He is an end came from miles to avail themselves 0: ing such & well-known man, Mr.MeDonald is naturally esreful in making any statement for publication, mowing that his friends, neighbors itrone will believe what John B, MoDonald says.Your Por matian, being laid up several times à «ble to work at saything.AS Donald\u2019\u2019.and fruit tablets cured him when all else failed.Mr.MaDonald is quite right in saying ** WHO TAKES THEM AS DIRECTED | about I sm hereby authorite you to pub- « rt at his choses vocation his services.ite naturally, he is willing to si OHN B.McDONALD.let Mr.MoDonaid is very grateful to \u201c\u2018 Fruit-e-tives\u201d\u2019\u2014not only for saving him so Jon suffering, but also keeping him in good health so that he can work daily at his business.Mr.McDonald believes in \u2018\u2018Fruit-a-tives\u2019\u2019 because these famous 5 natu | his name to a clear statement of the fasts.it-atives\u2019\u2019 is a panacea for Rheumatism.It is mare\u2014it is the greatest cure for Rheumatism in the world.We would go a step farther and aay \u2018\u2018 Fruit-a-tices'\u2019 is the only cure for Rheumatism in the world.*\u2018Pruit-a-tives\u2019\u2019 goes to the seat of the trouble\u2014the blood\u2014 and keeps the blood free from uric acid by comp ting the bowels, Eidneys and skin.\u2018\u2018Fruit-n-tives\u2019\u2019 is ¢ be only medicine in the world that is made of fruit.*\u2018Fruii-aletely tives\u2019\u2019 contain the juices of apples, oranges, figs and prunes, combined with valuable heart and verve tomies\u2014the whole form ing a curative combination which has po equal in the annals of snedicine.Being made of fruit, the netion of \u2018\u2018Wruit-a-tives\u2019\u2019 is mild while the taste is extremely pleasant.If you feel your o 1d enemy Rheumatism coming back, drive it out of your system by taking \u2018\u2018Fruit-a-tives, \u2019\u2019 the wonderful medicine made of fruit.50e à box, 8 for $2.50, or trial size, 25c.At all dealers, or sent ou receipt of price by Fruit-a-tives, Limited, Ottawa.Beyond the Seas upon his ascent to the | STRIPPED OF STOLEN CLOTHES.| $2,000 bail for the grand Jury and order Thrope:\u2014'\u2018 Under the good guidance of the Ruler of all men.I will maintain upon the foundation of freedom, justice, and the great heritage of the unit ed British people.'\u2019\u2014~Ledor Canada.SENSATIONAL NEWS.Between the 7th and 14th January we will have a sale which will certainly attract a large number of those who are looking for the best goods.Thomas Gilmartin, of 311 Eset Fortyninth street, was merrily celebrating the Yuletide with some of his friends at bis home on Sunday night, when Detectives Stapleton and McAvoy rudely brought an end to the festivities by ar- Testing Gilmartin on a charge of enter ing Louis Wolf's clothing store at 823 Second avenue on Decanber 23 and carrying off 6200 worth of wearing apparel.Wolf was in Yorkville Court yesterday when Gilmartin was arraigned.He ea bim to divest himself of the coat and waistcont.He was then taken to the prison and also relieved of bis trowers, \u2014New York Times.The great gir mie ul agua!

business, have bees revising their slready complete system for assisting newcomers.The Feder al Powers bate carefully studied all tbe veads of the settler, aad the man who lands in the Dominion for the first time may look to it, through its bureaux agd other offieial sources, for every kind of information.Then, in Canada the Provincial Governhand of welcome to any mes of woman who arrives in the spirit of readiness to fall in with the labor conditions as be finds them.Keeh Provincial Government subsidies agencies with the sole object of getting poople, and they were never so enger to open their arma to Britishers by the thousand as they are now.And is flowing into the provinees, and as ésch possesses its own particular resourres, and all are potential of endiess possibfili- ties, the outloos ie grest.On this side it is sstisfactory to lesrn that there no longer existe the ignorance as to the requirements and conditions of Cansde.The educational work of the Governments and voluntary agencies, and the healthy atfect of the Dominion\u2019s em- igzation laws, bave together eslighte:psd the people of this country as to tbe qualifications of a successful Fife in Canmds.It may be observed, ia passing, that the Oanadisn Northern Compaay, since it established its now Emigration Campaign in the West of England, has met with remarkable success.THe result is that about deportations and standing Fuglishmea sad women in the great cities of the Dowinion.The shipping companies have made their asre: te for the season, and al ready we of ships thet are pire \u201c\u201cfuil up.\u201d\u2019 The economic espect of the question is cortaim to be re-diseussed from the standpoint of the theorist, but the broad fact is clear tbat, Canads being in a state of active sad progressive development, opportimities are more numerous.BRITISH COLUMBIA.British Columbia, although well sertad with a trans-continenta) ra:iway, has been urging far more and more raliway fécili- ties to keep pace with ite wemderful advance.That astute Canadisn, who bas built up n huge empire in the Wester States, Mr.James J.Hill, years ago saw shat British Columbia was is for a big boost; and isid his plans accurdingiy.He first pushed bis grest steel highway, the Great Northern Railway, to the Pacific cust, taking care te hug the iuternation- al boundary live pretty elosely for the best part of the length of 2,000 miles.When be had at last gained the Paoifc he retraced his footsteps, and from sirategical points here and there threw out spurs to the north, running right is- to the booming centres of Canada's most westerly province, bringing them net ealy into direet toueh with the various pérts on the Pacifie, but alee with the great centres of the Festern States.The signifieance of the metwork which the great western railwey hailder was quietly weaviog was quickly and fully grasped by certain British and Canadian intereste.With commendable enterprises the Grand Trunk Railway, which is throwing out a lang arm through North Britis Columbia to tap the Paeife, suw a means of making a bold hid for the traffic to aud from thé southern districts.The Hill interests stopped at Chicage.The Grand Trunk system bad the means of pouring a vast volume of European traffic Into the Hill steel channel, to the advantage of both, 30 a bold coup was made.Presidents Hill and Hayes had 2 conclave, the upshot of which has been the opening of a new continuons highway from all the great centres of Britain and Kuropé to the hearts of the wealth'est and most prosperous distriets of British Columbia.The man with capital bound for the one is brought face to fare with the vast orchards of both Ameries and Canada, can tirrn one\u2019s journey to profitable educational secount, and yet without loss of time on the way.From the emigrants point of view (he new routs has overwhelming advantages.The Grank Trunk Railway picks him up at his English or Euglish or Europeen home, traasports him across the Atisntie \u20180 Quebec or Montreal.Compliance with of these polsts envares no further worry until the destination is gained, altbough the States bave to he traversed for acsne 3.000 miles.Arrangements have Neen concluded whereby the American authori- : ties do wot heress the seitior whon he \u2018 enters their territory, and liberies he | immune from further anxiety when ab subeenuentiy passes Into the Deminlon once more.The new highway also offers alternative means of geitiog into the great whoat belts of Manitoba, Seshatchowen, and Alberts.The nbore

The legislative graft investigation committee delving further into fire in- surauce was told by Moses Tannenbaum, of L.Tannenbaum, Son & Coinsurance brokers, that New York City was in danger of a fire disaster as great, if not greater.than that which destroyed San [Francisco fol- Jowing the earthquake.\u201cThis is not only a possibility, but a probability,\u201d said ke.\u201cThe extent of the San Francisco disaster was due to the breaking of the water mains, mow we are digging tunnels through \u2018the heart of the city, using large quantities of dynamite.This dangerous explosive is handied every day by inexperienced or careless laborers.Any day a terrilic explosion might occur which would break our principal water .mains.If this should happen and two fires should break out at the same time, say at Printing House Square and in the vicinity of the Broadway Central Hotel, where would New | York be?\" Mr.Tannenbaum displayed a map !

Ernesto Nathan, is most remarkable both as a man and as an ad- winistrator.His fame is not limited to Italy, but is international, as recent events have proved in a manner so ample, indeed excessive, as to embarrass even himself.To demonstrate his ex- septional position it will be sufficient to may that be, an Israelite, an Englishman by birth, s Free Mason since his youth, s republican -in principle, ocenpies now the chair of Mayor in the seat of Christendom, on the top of the Capitoline Hill, facing the Vatican, from where all the ideas personified in_Ernesto Nathsu bave been fought for ceoturies with every thunderbolt, spiritual and temporal, of the Papacy.Signor Nathan, although be is now over 65 years of age, having been born in London on October 5, 1845, is still a most vigorous and setive wan, exuberant with life and energy, tireless in his daily work and with projects stretehing over many years to come.His father was a banker of German origin and it is even said that bis family is a branch of those Nathava from which the Rothwhilds sprang, it being known that the latter were originally Nathans until they were named after the red shield which bung over their shop door.The Nathans had twelve children, the Mayor being the fifth.He lost his father when he was only 14.With his mother he went to Pisa, where he continued his studies.Sara Nathan, or Barina, as she was called, and her son, on account of their opinions, were obliged to move fran Pisa to Florence, to Milan, to Genoa, where their relations with the conspirators who bad Massini as apostle and Garibaldi as leader, were discovered, and they were obliged to flee to Lugano, Switzerland, to escape imprisonment.Their home in the free land of William Tell became the centre of all the exiled Italian patriots, first among them Giuseppe Masini, who, through daily contect with the young Ernesto Nathan, molded his character and sowed in his mind the seeds of thoss principles which have been the constant guide and aim of his life.Gtill it must not be thought that Esnesto Nathan Jived entirely in an atmosphere of political speculation, as the me- cessities of life foreed him to dedicate | his intelligence to commerce, which he pursued in Serdinia, in Genoa, and, later, iv London.He remained in London until 1870, whem, with the taking of Rome sad the fall of the.temporsl power, Italy won her liberty and became at last a united nation, He tben re-entered Italy aod met Mazsini again, who had been freed from prison, and became the manager of (he newspaper Boma del Popolo, whieh tho great agitator started and which died when he passed away.Even after Mazvini\u2019s denth Nathan continued to cultivate and diffuse the doctrines of the \u2018\u2018Master\u2019\u2019 through the newspapers Ewnmncipasione and Dovere, of which he was the soul inspirer, claiming that even outside the Republican field the Massinian teaching was the hest means to np- lift the people toward justice and truth.After years of propagande in this sense his efforts were crowged by a great vie tory, i.e.the publication at the expense of the State of Mazxini\u2019s works which he had gathered together with great care, and the decision that Maszini's \u2018\u2018The Duty of Man'\u2019 should be usod as a text\u2019 book in the schools, To him it ie also due if the spirit of Mazzini animate Itetin Freemasonry, of which for twenty- five years he bas been a prominent dgure, as Grand Master Giet, and as Hi able Grand Master later.\u201c He is also the authdy of several books, the best known beng \u2018\u2018 Twenty Years of Italien Life,\u2019 which is u picture of the progress made by the country under the present regime.His name was frequent ly the battle cry in the fights of Liberals, Democrats and anti-Clericals against the Conservative and Clerical elements, \u2018Three years ago the exireme parties of Rome joined in what was called \u2018The Popular Bloc,\u201d\u2019 which comprises Monnrebicæd Douocrats, Radicals, Republicans and Focielists, with the object of having = decisive battle with the (Rerico- Moderate parties, which for many yemrs had held the administration of the town, The bloc was successful all through, and Nathan, in whore nnme tho coalition had been possible and who, ns à Hebrew and A Free Mason, warn the most objections able persnnality to the Vatican, was chosen sa Mayor.Ones Mayor, Signor Nathan, notwithstanding his Republican past, imitated Garibaldi and Crispi, and.went to pay homage to the King, recognising that with 8 monarchy ss democratic as that which now rules iv jtaly there in no re form no matter how radicaMy advanced which cannot he put into practire, Since then the whole of hin work and ai his frequent apesches have been directed to actuste hin programme, his specches cui minating in that discourse on Sept, 20 last on the occasion of the fortieth an- aniversary of the taking of Rime, which created such a stir
