his part in the plot to assassinate Herman Rosenthal, as the latter was about to give | evidence involving Becker in gambl- i ing graît.Rose declared that he had always turned his collections over to Becker in cash, frequently at Rose's home, and that his wife and servants had seen the money pass and could testify to the truth of his statement.Becker's method of bringing the gamblers to terms was to raid them first, Rose said.This was the police officers\u2019 way, he explained, of \u201cgetting acquainted.\u201d After the raid he would offer to \u201cfix\u201d the case before the grand jury, Rose charged, provided the unfortunate gambler would \u201ccome across.\u201d If he did, then Becker\u2019s men, he said, would } less evidence before the jury or \u201clof.get\u201d what they had told in the police court.To further impress the gambler that his case was: hopeless Bygcker would procure extra warrants for his arrest and threaten to raid again and again as long as the gambler refused to pay his blackmail.Rose detailed two specific instances of Becker's alleged methods, giving names, dates and places.Describing his own relations with the police lieutenant, Rose said that his acquaintance began when Becker raided his gambling house on the East Side.Rose asked him jocularly.he said, why he had been \u201cpicked out\u201d whereat Becker replied with a wink, \u201cOrders.my boy.orders.\u201d The outcome was, Rose said, that he he- came a stool pigeon for Becker in his raiding activities and then his collector, with others whom Becker employed for the same purpose.Rose substantiates in his statement all that Rosenthal had charged as to Becker being his partner in the Rosenthal gambling house.He asserted that Becker got 32 per cent of the \u201cplay,\u201d 20 per cent on his own account, and one-half of Rose's share, which was 25 per cent.The police lieutenant saw newspaper men in his cell in the Tombs today when he was asked if it was true that the \u201csystem\u201d was collecting a $5000 fund to defend him.\u201cI have engaged John F.McIntyre to conduct my case by advice of my counsel, John W.Hart.\u201d said Recker.\"Martin

Fire to Theatrs Royal in Dublin, Dublin, Ireland, Aug.6&\u2014Four mD- tant suffragettes were put on trial here today on the charge of having committed serious outrages at the time of the visit to Dublin of the British Prime Minister.Gladys Evans was found guilty of setting fire on July 18 to the Theatre Royal, where Mr.Asquith was scheduled to speak the following day on Home Rule.The charge against Mabel Capper who was accused of being an accom plice of Gladys Evans, was withdrawn, while Lizzie Baker, also charged as an accomplice, pleac+d guilty to damaging property.The jury disagreed in the case of Mary Leigh, and she will be tried tomorrow on the charge of wounding John E.Redmond, leader of the Irish Parliamentary party, who was hit by a hatchet that was thrown at the Premier's carriage while it was proceeding with the ministerial party to 8 hotel.Sentence was reserved in the cases of the convicted women.A great crowd filled the court room and gathered outside.Timothy Healy, chief counsel for the women.was hooted when he entered.He demanded the exclusion from the jury of all membera of the Society of Molly Ma- Haguires.He sald that he refused to be insulted by them and did not doubt that they were there by the government's orders.The attorney general for Ireland, C.A.O'Connor, with three assist ants, conducted the prosecution.He described the attempt to burn the theatre and said it was only by a miracle that it escaped destruction.Witnesaes testified to seeing Gladys Evans and another woman putting oil on the carpet and the curtains and trying to set them on fire, and also to putting matches in a cinematograph box, The police testified that the first performance was ended and the house nearly empty when the attempt was made.The Evans woman struggled when arrested, and said: \u201cThis is only the beginning.There will be more explosions at the next performance.\u201d Miss Evans declared that she had gone to the theatre for the purpose of burning it.A cabinet member, C.H.Hobhouse (Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster), had told them that they would be Justified in doing so.Mr.Healy's cross-examination developed the assertion that Mr.Hobhouse in the course of a speech had said that the suffragettes would accomplish nothing until they hegan to burn houses.Mr.Healy, in addressing the jury.said that Miss Evans was not a criminal.\u201cShe is one of

CHANGE IN THE GRADES Says Hon.Frank Cochrane, Minister of Railways, at Winnipeg.Winnipeg, Aug.6\u2014Hon.Frank Cochrane, Minister of Railways, today gave a flat denial to the atate- ments that there has been a change in the grade of the National Transcontinental Railway.\u201cThere has been no change in grade.As a matter of fact, the grading of the right of way has been completed for some days,\u201d he said.\u201cIt is true that some wooden bridges and trestles arc being put in, but it is well understood that these are only for temporary use and for the purpose of bringing the section between Winnipeg and Cochrane into operation in time to assist in the handling of this year's grain crop.We are making every effort to get this temporary work into such shape that when the frost comes and the ground and track is set.it may be possible to ship much of this wheat to the East via the Transcontinental and the Temiskaming and Northern Ontario road, which connects Cochrane and North Bay.\u201d Mr.Cochrane is leaving in a few days for Hudson's Bay, via Norway House and the Hayes River.He will be accompanied by Mr.Peter Gordon, assistant engineer on the Hudson Bay Railway.LORD

AUGUST 7, mm.THE LORDS OF THE PRIVY COUNCIL.The essence of law-and order lies in the community's bowing to the dev cisions of our courts of justice, with the right of appeal as a safeguard, until the case in dispute is laid before the highest law court in the Empire \u2014the court of the law-lords of the Privy Council.Therefore, the bidding comes from law-and-order for alt of us to bow the head to their decision as à final one, over which there can be no question.Their word is as the word of the absolute monarch of olden times, with whom no back-talking was tolerated.Everybody, however, is talking and will not be hindered talking about the new relationships which are proposed for the component parts of the Fiapire.The talking is perhaps a little premature, though it is by no means impertinent.The first step will no doubt be à declaration securing the present Imperial Conference as a permanent Imperial Council in which representatives chosen from the Overseas Dominions shall.have.a place with the British Ministers or their representatives, Before this can be brought about, Canada will have to make up her mind as to what she is going to do about the Asquith-Borden navy proposals, outside of every phase of party politics.In the meantime, however, a step may be taken whereby Canada may see a Canadian lawyer sitting with the distinguished lawyers who comprise the present board of the Lords of the Privy Council.All the Overseas Dominions have their own share of the Privy Councillors; but no lawyer from these dominions has any place on the grouping of privy eouncillors that sit on the final law court of the Empire.And .the time seems opportune for a change in this respect, though it is not for any of these dominions to ask for such recognition as yet.It is for the President of the Lords of the Privy Council dealing with appeals in law to take the preliminary steps to have such a representative sitting with him and his colleagues.And if it be well for a university to have a \u201cbest man\u201d for its principal, a \u201cbest lawyer\u201d would have to be chosen as a member of the Privy Council, reorganized as it may be with the interests of the Overseas Dominions in view.The first Cana dian selected for such an honor must be one conc thing whom there is but one opinion\u2014& good opinion, the very highest opinion\u2014in regard to his legal acumen and sound judgment.He must be a lawyer free from provincial partialities, above his fellows in point of intellect, as one or two of the appointments to the Canadian bench under the late Liberal regime have failed to illustrate, in their personnel; and altogether a man in whose good sound sense every one can trust, from client to lawyer, from the Bar to the Bench, in every part of the eountry he hails from.A HINT TO MONTREAL.The other day, in referring to the kind of principal a university should have, in line with Lord Roseberry's rideal that such an institution should be the best of machines for the turning out of the best men, we made the remark that it should have for its head a \u201cbest man\u201d\u2014not a mere administrator, nor a puller of the strings of intrigue to get things to look smooth-\u2014but a man of the very highest respectability of intellect, a man whome the age would care to raise a monument to, when his university work is over.Aud such 2 man was Sir William Dawson, who was virtually the father of McGill University and took renk as a science-man among the science men of the world.On the corner of the pedestal of the \u201clion couchant\u201d on Windsor Square, his name has been inscribed with other prominent Canadians; but a little more than that the Montrealer might do to commemorate his career.We are not going to hint why it was he had to retire from his office.other than on account of advancing years, In his administration of the affairs of the university, he was always of the people and with the people, and knew every student personally and had an eye on his after career too.Surely the time is now ripe to commemorate the work he accomplished during his long career, by the erection on the college grounds or in the heart of the city some token in stone and lime of the \u201cmonumentum aere pereunius\u201d which he erected for himself hy his life's work.It is a pity such has been delayed, but better late than never we may say, with the hope it has not been delayed from any ulterior motive on the part of those who perhaps ought to have taken the initiative years ago.We see that the authorities of the THE QUEBEC CHRONICLE.~~ new University of British Columbia are on the lookout far one of Lord Roseberry's \u201cbest men\u201d to take charge of that institution, and if they are only allowed to go the right way about it, with no back-door infpence to, lead them-to appoint some févoured mediocrity, aa hay deen too \u2018pften the case in many educational appointments of late, their 1abours may be crowned with success, The \u201cmutual admirp- tion business\u201d is a poor way of fishing for a best man to supervise the making of our best mea.Meantime the people of Moñtreal might bestis themselves to erect such a monument to the \u201cbest man\u201d they once had over McGill in the person of Sir William Dawson\u2014\u2014\u2014 ere SOMETHING A LITTLE LIKE HYPOCRISY.The fight against the Trusts on Uncle Sam's side of the line has something which looks a little like hypocrisy, and all the more so seeing he would incubate the biggest American Shipping Trust the world has ever seen, by virtually closing the Panama Canal to all outsiders, The Sherman Law, as we remember, was put in force against the Standard Oil Trust and the Steel Trust, the Tobacco Trust and other controlling business concerns whose shares have been selling higher and higher as the price of living went up with their increasing value, The Standard Oil Company is still doing business, under covet of, though seemingly remote from the old stand, with its shares still selling at nine hundred and eighty dollars, and with a property in hand worth a thousand million dollars, not too bad for a company said to have been dismantled and broken up by the Sherman Law.The fragments from the breaking up are doing pretty well, the stock of the Continental Oil Company being quoted in Wall Street at eight hundred and fifty dollars a share; South Penn Oil at six hundred and thirty; Solar Refining at five hundred and twenty-five; with the price of coal oil, gasoline and other products from the oil well still going up on the consumer.The great Meat Trust of Chicago is in the midst of taking steps similar to those taken by the Standard Oil people; while the Tobacco Trust, supposed to have been effectually dismembered, has its shares quoted iri the money markets as having advanced, from the date of its so-called desinemberment, all of seventy dollars.And thus decs the \u201cbusting\u201d of the trusts go on; with the Democrats rubbing their hands [tongratulatingly :awer what they-have been doing\u2019 t fraugurate the \u2018\u201cbusting\u201d; \u2018all the while contemplating to Arve the Panama Canal closed against outsigers in order that a Shipping Trust, th elargest of its kind in the world, might have scope for its operations.One would like to know what the great \u2018Democratic leaders, Woodrow Wilson and William Jennings Bryan, have to say about the new phase of the campaign against trusts of all kinds.Woodrow Wilson, we know, is opposed to the trusts on principle, and Bryan gave the representatives of the trusts a heavy blow at the Baltimore Convention.They cannot therefore be in favor of closing the Canal against outsiders, if they would escape being accused of hypocrisy, The Bishop preached a good sermon, as says our correspondent, who has told us several things about New York life from the standpoint of a casual visitor.His discourse was neither scholarly nor eloquent.He took for his text Daniel Webster's well known statement, heralded of course by a passage of Scripture, \u201cthat the greatest thought in the world is man\u2019s responsibility to God, the creator of all things.\u201d He divided his sermon into three sections, namely: (1) Man's responsibility towards his body; (2) man's responsibility to his mind; and (3) man's responsibility to his soul.In dealing with the first, he made a strong point of saying that man\u2019s responsibility to his body extended to ov¥er-working, over-sleep- ing, over-eating and over-drinking.His Lordship must have been reading the twin verses we published yesterday on \u201cLife's Too-Muchness.\u201d And iy referring to Kipling's work as applicable to what he had to say under the three respective heads of his sermon, he stated that the modern poet so many English students have gone crazy over, has only written some \u201cstuff\u201d masculine enough to be human and pertinent in its application to some great life lesson; which shows what kind of bishops and critics there are to be met with, counselling an audience of two hundred, in the chancel of a New York church that is to cost fifty million dollars before it is finished, while the wickedness of hades runs rampant on the street, and the weaithy who pay towards the support of the church snd its future extensions are holiday- The street is in a dangerous condition, but we had better not say any thing epenly shout it, ainca poor Mr.So-and-so, may be called upon to go to the expense of rencwing his side- Walk.The plague of small-pox has

approaching session, to the depreciation of the trade of the capital.The gates of Hades in New York have been burst open by the tempest of boodling and bad-blood within them; but why should any one make such a fuss about them as if the same thing did not once happen before when Boss Tweed was holding his carnival.And thus runs the logic of the course every day, until some people, not very far advanced as thinkers, fail to discriminate between good and evil, or right and wrong.Even the preacher in the pulpit, wrestling with wickedness in the abstract, is too often accused of fault-finding for the sake of fault-finding; While the modern moralist is all but sure to be relegated to a corner, and the pies that he is merely \u201cpreaching,\u201d Colonel Roosevelt is having the time of his life in Chicago just now as everybody prognosticated.He has a race-cry all of his own to settle, which he is not likely to settle without a serious loss to his following.That following, it seems, may call itself Republican or Progressive as they think fit, at least the Kansas Supreme Court has decided that it has no power to forbid putting Roosevelt electors on the Republican ticket.In California, it«cems that the law\u2019 provides a way to steal, so says the Oakland Tribune, the Republican name for a candidate running in opposition to the Republican nominee.And such a law no Progressive will surely object to, not even the irrepressible Colonel! himself, although he his had some rather bitter words to say against President Taft for accepting a nomination which he claims was a breach of the Eighth Commandment.And still the chance lies open for Quebec's acceptance\u2014namely, to give appropriate welcome to the British Minister or Ministers who think of bso ek surely cannot be premature to talk about the matter.A friend suggests that the newspaper authorities should be asked to lay aside their differences for the moment and help in the obliteration of party bitterness, to the helping out of a great event in the history of our country.It is not given to all to hold a high head in this world.But every one has the role of duty and pleasure to play all the same; and the poet singles out the violet to tell its story how there is a place for every one in the world, even the very humblest\u2014a place where commuhion with the best that is in us and a subduing of the worst makes a heaven of things small as they may be.THE VIOLEi.! The little violet on the hill Has been a sweet friend so long, T found it a little place today In the rhythmic beat of song.1 thought of it there in its lone retreat Where only the hreezes go, And still so beautiful and so sweet, With only its God to know.It might have been born in another sphere With a mightier work to do, And dwelt in a window where thousands pass To blush \u2019neath their searching view, - But there on the hill through sun and storm In patient service it keeps Its loveliness for the lonely life Where only the soft wind creeps.1 thought of the violet at my toit And it came to my heart like light, That where God sets us to do our work The spot he chooses is right, And he whose service is never seen Or known by the passing throng Is worthiest still of the world's applause And deserves the poet's song.For many a quiet place remote From the thunder and the steam Holds one who scatters around his realm The beauty and light of dream.And the little violet on the hill Is happy amid its sun If the quiet work God gives it to do Is a service faithfully done.TEACHER WILL BE INSTRUCTOR IN JUVENILE CO Montreal, Aug.6.\u2014Shetiff Lemieux has started an innovation in the Juvenile Court by appointing a teacher for the instruction of illiterste chil- making nearly the whole year round.> dren under détention awaiting trial.has been an outbreax of typhoid in |.itilig.Caada st an early dag\u201d It}~ .WEDNESDAY, AUGUST, 7 1912, Camping and Fishing Outfit Canvas Tents & Sleeping Bags Folding Camp Beds & Chairs Red and Gray Camp Blankets, Camp Stoves and Kitts, Canvas Canoes.Oars and Paddles.Hunting Coats & Trousers, Sweaters, \u2018 \u2014AT\u2014 S.J.SHAW & CO.13 ST.JOHN ST.GARDEN HOSE AND REELS Lawn \u2018Mowers Grass Sheuxi all descriptions Poultry Netting and Fencing -deneral & Heavy Hardware.AT THE CHING HARDNARE G0 W.MARTIN & CO.2, 4 and 6 D'Youville Streer -

Control, hands of a \u201cone-man government\u201d through the decision of the Senate dorsed by the House of Representatives.By a vote of 43 to 14 it adopted a provision giving the President control of all affairs at Panama, with power to appoint a governor to \u2018complete, govern and operate\u201d the canal and canal zone.Spurred on by & special message from President Taft urging the need of immediate legislation to provide for the organization of a canal operating force, tht Senate made marked rogress to-day on the Canal bille question of tolls, and the proposed free passage of American ships, was under discussion when adjournment was taken to-night.Senator Burton moved to strike out that section which would exempt American coast-wise traffic from payment of tolls.Senator Brandegee épposed it on the ground that it was not good business.He said he did got believe the United States had the right under the British treaty to exempt American vessels, but that that was not the reason he oposed the {ree toll provision.\u201cThe fact that we had a diplomatic note from Great Britain is aboslutely immaterial and irrelevant to me,\u201d he said.Senator Lodge declared the United States, if compelled to go before The Hauge Court with the question of its rights sto exempt American ship would surely lose its case, \u201cno matter how good it was.\u201d The only alternative, he said, would be to refuse to go to The Hague or else to drop the free toll provision and accept his plan of governmental rebate or subsidy equal to the amount of toll.Senator Works characterized this as \u201cpure, unadulterated evasion.\u201d Senator Lodge said it was the plan adopted by all other nations with reference to the Suez Canal.Senator Root expressed the opinion that the United States did not have any right of sovereignty at Panama which would exempt the canal from the provisions of the Hay-Paunce forte treaty.He said that the canal strip had been acquired from Panama in 1903 subject expressly to the provisions of the treaty with Great Britain, \u201cI know of no higher rule of \"| ethics,\u201d he added, \u201cthan that which requires nations to observe good faith in relation to

S.Darrow came to an abrupt and sensational halt an hour before the usual adjournment time to-day when Judge Hutton committed Darrow's chief counsel, Earl Rogers, to jail until to-morrow morning at 9 o'clock for contempt of curt in lien of paying a fine of $50.Rogers applied to presiding Judge Willis, of the Sugerior Court, for his release on à writ of habeas corpus, which was granted, Rogers being required to give $200 bail.Rogers\u2019 offence was in designating a State rebuttal witness as a perjurer and upon his refusal to withdraw the appellation, a fine of $0 was imposed.Rogers declared he would go to jail rather than pay the fine and the court appended to the previous judgment an alternative sentence of five days in jail.Upon showing by the defense that Darrow would be deprived of counsel during the course of his trial, the sentence was modified.Q.H.F.Mayer, produced by the prosecution as the \u201cmysterious stranger\u201d who accompanied Bert H.Frank: lin to the office of the McNamaras de: fence on the morning of Franklin's arrest, was being cross-examined by Rogers when the outbreak occurred.Leonard Shober, the watchman in the office, who first told of the mys- terioLs man, mas confronted with Mayer and said he was not the man.Mayer had testified he went to Darrow's office with Franklin on the morning prior ta Franklin's arrest and that he was the \u201cmysterious stranger\u201d to whom reference had beea made.Mayer, who is 1 detective, formerly employed by Franklin, was subjected to a severe grilling hy Rogers in the midst of which District Attorney Fredericks remarked that Rogers was \u2018wasting time, .\u2018I'm not,\u201d declared Rogers.\u201cI am showing up a perjurer, that's all.\u201d Mayer was the first witness introduced in rebuttal by the State, the defence having closed its case soon after the beginning of the afternoon session.He said that he had been employed by Franklin until a few days ago.ENGLISH SWIMMER BREAKS

Nebraska, travelled all the way to Quebec.The lad who arrived here with his mother from England en route to join his father in Omaha, Nebraska, was held up by the U.Simmigration officials owing to being feeble-minded, and rot likely to become a desirable citizen.Influence was brought to bear to haye the boy passed over the decisions of the iocal officials, the pl:a being that the boy was only backward, and that his * deportation would mean the breaking up of the family.The case was ferred to a medical board; which held an investigation and decided that the boy would have to be deported.Senator Hitchcock was present at the investigation, and he took, as was to be expected, a deep interest in the enquiry.The Senator put several questions to the boy, and from the answers was of the opinion that the action of the U.S.authorities was well taken.It was a very affecting sight.when the father, who had travelled all the way from Omaha, Nebraska, met his wife and child, and the decision that the boy could not pass was received with sorrow.\u201cTune boy is at present confined at the detention hospital, and will fikely leave Canada for his English home on Friday next if the

\u201c- Se , 1h [KIDNEY/ 78 PI L Kr NEWSPAPER REPORTS ABE MISLEADING Official Statement Issued by President of the Grand Trunk Railway.Montreal, August 6\u2014The folowing statement was issued to-day by E.J.Chamberlin, President of the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway, with respect to the National Transcontinental 3 \u201cThe newspaper reposts which have been appearing recently throughout the country relative to that section of the National Transcontinental Railway between Winnipeg and Lake Superior Junction, are misleading, ane must have been written without 2a thorough knowledge of the situation.\u201cThe Grand Trunk Pacific Railway have been operating that piece of line since August 1, 1911, handling all of last season's grain business and other traffic offered over that line without any detriment to the public.The Government are now asking that the Grand Trunk Pacific execute a permanent lease of that portion of the line between Winnipeg and Lake Superior Junetion known as District F, and negotiations are pending the Government and the company on that point, but do not as a matter of accommodation, in any way effect the public.The contract between the Government and the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway relative to the Transcontinental Railway, that section between Moncton snd Winnipeg, which was to be constructed by the Government and is known as the Eastern Division, provides that : \u201cPending the completion of the Eastern Division by the Government; \u201cThe company shall be entitled to lease in the commissioners to be appointed ; .\u201cUnder the said act, and to operate such portions of the said Eastern Division; \u201cAs may from time to time be completed, upon such terms, ete, \u201cBut does not bind the railway company to take over any sections, un- Jess they desire to do so, until the entire line is completed.Negotiations are in progress between the Government and the company relative to a further lease of the section above referred to when it ia fully completed and pending the completion of the whole line.Notwithstanding reports in the papers throughout the country, that portion of the Transcontinental line is not yet completed.There is considerable work to be performed on the entrance into Winnipeg, connecting up the Transcontinental with the Grand Trunk Pacific and the Canadian Northern at Union Station.There is also other work on the line necessaary to be done before the terms of the contract are completed with, \u2018With regard to the Springfield or Transcona shops, Major Leonard, Chairman of the \u2018Transcontinental Railway Commission, has decided that the shops are not part of the contract between the Government and the railway, while the railway company contend that they are part of the Transcontinental contract.If Major Leonard's contention is eventually sustained, the taking over of the line between Winnipeg and Lake Superior Junetion would not include the taking over of the shops Ly the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway.Jn the other hand, if the Grand Trunk Pacific officers\u2019 contention that the shups are a part of the Transcontinental, is sustained, the taking over of the line would also mean the taking over of the shops and placing them promptly in operation.\u201d NEW-FANGLED SCHOOLS.They taught him how to hemstitch and they taught him how to sing , And how to make a basket out of

into the Titanic disaster, Sir Rufus Isaacs, the Attorney General, was the most prominent figure, By his masterly cxamin- ation of the witnesses, drawing from them with unexceptional politeness and without a trece or shadow of the old bullying methods that were far too commor.at the bar in years gone by, he tas added to a reputation that had already been the admiration of the English people.Only the other day his ability was recognized in a somewhat unique fashion by the admission of the At- torney-General to that inner circle of the Covernment which is known as the cabinet and there can hardly be a doubt that higher positions still are in store for him.It is generally admitted that not since the days when Disraeli rose to be Prime Minister, the highest official position that any subject of the crown might aspire to in the British Isles hus any man of Hebrew birth made himself so strongly felt in English politics and English law.His success has been unquestionably due to his exceptional ability as a practising lawyer in the courts rather than to the use of the arts of the politician.His career reads like a romance The son of a London merchart, Jos.M.Isaacs, he was educated at London University College School and in Brussells and Hanover.He was destined for Cambridge but revolted against the parental plans, ran away from home and joined a ship's company for Rio de Janeiro.He embarked on a sailing vessel for South America as a common sailor, It was not long before he tired of sea life and on his return to London might still have gone to the university, but he preferred business and established himself as a broker.He soon found, however, that this kind of husiness was as uncongenial to him as the sea.At twenty-six he was confronted with financial ruin, This was when he began studying for the bar to which he was admitted from the Middle Temple, and ten years later he was created & King's counsel and had the largest practise of any barrister in England.The Woman Who Helped.It was at that critical juncture, when he was twenty-six, that he met his future wife, Alice Edith Cohen, the daughter of an American merchant who had moved to London.She it was who advised the young broker to study law and from that day onward she was his constant helpmate and adviser, Mr.Isaacs remonstrated at the hopelessness of beginning in the profession at so late a date, but the young woman insisted.Together, in the evenings, the two used to pore over the law books.Such was their success that in 1887 Isaacs was admitted to the bar in London, The same year, although he had eft the Stock Exchange absolutely penniless he married Miss Cohen.It was not long befare he became known for his mastery of intricate figures and details\u2014a gift which remained his most distinguishing talent in the practise of law.He was soon recognized as an expert in bank- ruptey law, and as an indispensable aid in unravelling the legal knots of the large mercantile and financial houses of London.When Whitaker Wright, the great English \u201cfrenzied finance\u201d expert, who had fled to America, was brought back to London and successfully prosecuted by Isaacs his reputation was secured.Wright bad involved so many peers and younger sons of England's most prominent families with him, that the press was unanimous in the opinion that he could never be convicted.Dut the trenchant examination of Rufus Isaacs together with the master of figures with which he dumbfounded Wright, \u2018effected the breakdown and confession of the defendant, It was within a few feet of his prosecutor that Kright drank poison and escaped imprisonment.In 1904 Isaacs was returned to Parliament as a Liberal from the Reading District.Up to the death of King Edward VII he was a regular \u201cfourth\u201d at the.Royal bridge table and it was jokingly said that the reason that the King, who was not a great bridge player, enjoyed playing with Sir Ruius Isascs, was that the lawyer played as badly as he did.In 1909, Tsaacs was made Solicitor.General, and in 1910, he was knighted and made Attorney-General.The following year he was created Privy Councillor and Knight Commander of the Victorian Order.This year, as if honors had not come rapidly enough the historic precedent of.the British Constitution was broken in order to make him a member of the Cahinet, for he is the first Attorney-General ever to be admitted.MADE PECULIAR WILLS.Human Nature As Shown In Queer Requests and Bequests, The remarkable will of a man who died not long ago directing the undertaker to stab him through the heart after he had heen pronounced dead by his physician is not A unique one.Tre fear of heing buried alive has driven many a man to stipulate in his will that extraordinary steps be taken to make sure of death.Thus, for instance, 8 magnate of Plymouth, England, decreed hv his will that his wife should eut off one of his toes or fingers to make sure he was dead, adding that he made the QUEBEC CHRONICLE, The will of Lord Lytton contained.special directions as to the examination of his body in order to provide int the possibility of his being buried while in a trance, which appeared to be an apprehension of his.A farmer of Hertfordshire, England, who died in 1720, was so certain that his lethal slumber was to be nnt really death that he inserted in his will his written wish that, \u201cas he was about to take a 30-year nap, his coffin might be suspended from a beam in his barn and by no means nailed down.\u201d He, however, permitted it to be locked, provided a hole were made in the side, through which the key might be pushed, so that he might tee himself out when he awoke.His nephew, who inherited the property, obeyed his whim and did not bury the coffin till 1751, allowing him an extra year o fyrace.Requested Post-Mortem.The Sieur Boby, who died in 1845 at the age of 96, said in his will: \u201cEight and forty hours after my decease I desire that a post-mortem examination be made, that my heart be | taken out and placed in an urn, which shall be intrusted to M.Baudoin (the undertaker).In conformity with an arrangement between him and myself my chart is to be conveyed to a mausoleum in the department of La Mayenne and there to be deposited, as agreed.\u201d Robert, the famous Earl of Mellent and Leicester, on ¢ of the early crus saders in the Holy Land, died in 1118 in the abbey of Preaux, where his - body was buried, but his heart was conveyed to the hospital at Brackley, there to be preserved in salt.Isabella, daughter of the Earl of Pembroke, who died in 1239, ordered her heart to be sent in a silver cup to her brother, then Abbot of Tewkesbury, to be buried there befor e the high altar.The heart of John Balio), Lord of Barnard Castle, who died in 1269.was by his widow's desire incloced in an ivory casket richly enameled with silver.Wanted No Woman Near, Budweiser AMERICA'S FAVORITE BEVERAGE - The fact that we sold 173,184.600 bottles

\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014among the countless numbers of curious wills which are recorded through many generations.There is, for example, the will of a rich old bachelor, who, incensed at what he considered the attempts of his family to put him under the yoke of matrimony, vented his spite on the whole sex of women by saying in his will: \u201cT beg that my executors will see that I am buried where there is no woman interred either to the right or to the left of me.Should this not be practicable in the ordinary course of things 1 direct that they purchase three graves and bury me in the middle one of the three, leaving the two others unoccupied.\u201d John Reed, gaslighter of the Walnut Street Theatre, Philadelphia, filled that post for 44 years.There is not on record a single performance at the theatre at which he was not present.He never aspired to appear on the stage in his lifetime, but he was not without his mute ambitions, and before he died he contrived ingeniously to make stire of assuming a Shakesperean role after his death.A clause in his will read: | \u201cMy head is to he separated from ! my body immediately afte rmy death, the latter to be buried in a grave, the formet, duly macerated and prepared, to he brought to the theatre.where I have served all my life, and to he employed to represent the skull of Yorick, and to this end T bequeath my head to
