of convenient height with ample room to allow the arm full swing, loose sleeves, using tho muscles of the arm to form the letters, changing the manner of holding the pen, using the type-writer, etc., all form important factors in preventing the disease, especially iu those who experience such premonitory symptoms as slight weakness of the muscles, slight pain and sudden contractions and spasms Of the fingers, writes Leonard S.Ran, M IX, iu an article on that most troublesome oi diseases, writers\u2019 cramp, in the February Ladres' Home Journal.\u20191 he best and quickest results may bo obtained by the use of electricity, massage and ir y in nasties.Absolute rest, tonic treatment and change of climate are advisable.When all methods fail, the only alternative is to change one\u2019s

guns, howitzers and mortars, which have done duty for so many years on the Ramparts.Terrace, Esplanade and walls, without a struggle.The greatest indignation exists in our city over the orders which General Herbert has sent to the Commandant of the Citadel, to rob $ Quebec of \u2022 roamcnts which for more than two ce'tturiea have interested, instructed and attracted visitors from all parts of the world.The guns have a past.They occupy little room.\u2022 They present a striking picture whi h is seen from every approach to the city whether by land or water.To remove them would be an act which r.o man of common sense in sober moments would justify.If sold for old iron, the value realized would be trifling, while the loss to the city from an artistic standpoint would be incalculable.Yesterday the Prime Minister and several of his colleagues were telegraphed to, to stop the outrage, and sevenl leading citizens addressed a letter to the Mayor last night, asking him to call a public meeting to protest against an act which no one can think of without feeling indignant.THE TALK OF THE DAY.It was in response to a summons from the Minister of Agriculture, that Provincial Secretary Pelletier left for Ottawa yesterday, to be pWsent at a conference of the heads of the Provincial Health Departments.The object of the meeting ia to discuss the precautions that it may be possible to take against the invasion of our country this year, by Bang Cholera, who is said to be on the march, thitherwards.Iifdeed, Dr.Montizambrrt, the Health Superintendent at Grosse Isle, intimated last year, that the chances were all in favour of the epidemic getting a foothold here, unless precautions of the most extraordinary character were taken, and taken very early in the day.IJe frightened the Government into doing something.The Provincial Government, to its credit, be it said, boldly took the bull by the horns, and inaugurated a series of precautions which practically kept the disease out of the Province for the time.Mr.Carling was the Federal Minister then, but he was slow to move.The Minister who succeeded him is Mr.Angers, our late Lieutenant-Governor, a man of sound common sense.Ife has not been too slow to move.He has studied the situation very carefully, and has called fpr consultation eminent men from all |»rts of the country.He fears th it the dread destroyer may c >me here in the immigrant ships, and he wants to see how the danger may be averted.Dr.Cassi-dt, Chairman of the Ontario Provincial Board of Health, audDr.Bryce, Secretary, will representOntario.Mr.Gibson, * member of the Ontario Government, will also be present.We will be represented by Mr.Pelletier in behalf \"f the Quebec Government, and the President and go'-re-tary of the Provincial Board of Health.Great good must arise from the meeting of these experts.The Toronto Mail has a long article on the subject.Our contemporary says with tnueb truthfulness : \u201c Considering the fact that we arc threaten ed with cholera wfiaa the emigration season opens, it is exceedingly important that all possible precautions should be taken.This is all the more urgent because of the prospective failure of the United Stale* Congres* to authorize an effective Federal quarantine.It is possible, therefore, that we may be exposed, so to speak, on the right hand and on the left.Our Atlantic ports will require great watchfulness, while on the Pacific side it seem* even more requisite that no avenue for the entrance of disease should be left open.The points of contact with the United States will also require attention.\u201cIt is possible that one of the subject* which may engage the attention of the conference at Ottawa will be that of the institution of a Dominion Bureau of Health.Health matters have hitherto been to some extent attended to by the Department of Agriculture at Ottawa.It cannot be said that the \u2022tate of thing* disclosed at the quarantine stations last y^r was calculated to impress the public with a very high idea of the supervision employed.The quarantipe stations had been allowed to fail into a lamentable state of disrepair.If an efficient health bureau were instituted at Ottawa it might prevent any neglect of this kind, and tb«re i* no THE MORNING CHRONICLE, TUESDAY, JANUARY 31, 1803.doubt it would be serviceable in securing unity of action among the health authorities throughout the Dominion, such os is arranged for in tirent Britain by the Health Department of the Local Government Board.The theory of course is that this unity of action is now obtained in the various provinces by the action of the Provincial Hoards of Health, which within the autonomy of their respective fieldscontrol the smaller health authorities.The presence, however, of an outside foe such as cholera seems to suggest the propriety of concerted action among the Provincial Boards, aud it is difficult to see how this could l>e secured without the existence of a central control.At the same time an obstacle arises when the possibility of a clashing between Federal and Provincial authorities is considered.This is just the obstacle which is in the way of a settlement of the quarantine question in the United .States at the present time.If this can be overcome there seems to be no reason why a Dominion Bureau of Health should not do a very important work, and the cost of such a department would he probably far less than it would be able to save the national pocket by preventing the inroads of disease.\u201cThere seems to be an increasing feeling in favour ot bolding the steamship and railway companies responsible for the immigrants they convey.It stands to reason that we should not be exposed to the attack of an epidemic disease becanse these companies wish to carry immigrants either to Canada or throngh Canada to the United States.It seems likely that the States of the adjoining Union, Iffost of whose Legislatures are now in session, will make more or less stringent regulations as to quarantine.It is probable that this will result in the influx of persons from Europe at Canadian ports, who will stay here just long enough to spread any contagion they may bring with them, but whose ultimate destination is the United States.Under those circumstances a certain amount of responsibility should certainly be thrown on the steamship companies.We should not receive from them immigrants who are suffering from disease.\u201d THE HAWAIIAN REVOLUTION.A SERIOUS STATE OF AFFAIRS.London, Jan.30\u2014The Daily News say*: \u2014\u201cThe overthrow of the Hawaiian Queen appears to be an American coup.Hawaii lieiug the key to the whole group, the Americans, once they possess it, would not find difficulty in making themselves masters of the others.Earope, howsver, has necessities in the same quarter, Honolulu being the only coaling station on the main route between San Francisco and Auckland.\u201d The Daily Telegraph says :\u2014\u201cThe affair wears the aspect of a successful attempt by American intriguers to subvent the existing order of things in favor first of themselves and next, of what is impossible, annexation.We could not allow the United States to annex the Islands, even if the established policy at Washington permitted the idea to be entertained.This policy, however, will not permit it.Obviously the native Government ought to be restored, for the revolution is the work of discontented foreigners, chiefly Yankees.\u201d The Chronicle says :\u2014\u201cEurope haa not any great concern with Hawaii.Nevertheless the Queen has rights which seem to h&ve received scant respect from the leaders of the movement.Events had not given to a section of the foreign population the right to oast the lawful Sovereign.Anxiety tor the welfare of the natives seem to have been less of a motive with the American party than the desire to further their own interest.\u201d The Standard says \u201c It is not likely that the good sense of the American people will permit them to assume this responsibility, which would be found onerous ana unorofit-ahle, or to claim an extension of influence which would be opposed and resented by other power* having equal interests at stake.It is thought the United States could not allow any other power to annex the Island, hut none has such an ambition.Justice requires that the constitution be restored with such reforms as are necessary.\u201d The Time* says :\u2014\u201c It is difficult to see how compliance with Mr.Dole\u2019s request can be reconciled with existing American engagement* and institutions.It seems plain, however, that the state of things that has existed lately cannot coot inue any longer Something must be done.The question is what and by whom.The Samoan precedent is not altogether encouraging.Nevertheless it seems possible that some such scheme may be executed ultimately.\u201d The Graphic says \u201cBeyond dispute there has been misgovern ment in Hawaii, lint nothing has occurred, to our knowledge, to justify the Queen\u2019s deposition.The fact that the revolutionists were in so great a hurry to petition the United States for annexation, wears an ugly look.\u201d The Post says:\u2014\u201cThe annexation of Hawaii by the United States might be regarded as a counter move to fortifying Esquimau.\u201d New York, Jan.30\u2014A San Francisco special to the Herald says: \u201cHawaii\u2019s revolution may prove a more serious affair lathe United States than was expected.Liliuokalani insists that she yielded not to the revolutionists in Honolulu, but to the superior force of the United States and she charges, in a proclamation issued after her abdication, that tho American Minister, John L.Stevens, caused United States troops to be landed at Honolulu and declared he would support the said Government.\u201d Indianapolis, Ind., Jan.30\u2014Acting Rear Admiral Geo.Brown returned a week ago from the command of the Pacific squadron.He has been much at Honolulu and is thoronghly familiar with the affairs of the Island.\u201cI am not surprised,\u201d he said, \u201cthat the QueenJias been called from the 'throne and practically retired.She is an obstinate, stubborn woman, self willed and unpopular and that this uprising has come about was to be expected.This act of the people was inevitable.Then there U another fact that helped to precipitate matters.The question of annexation has been brewing for some time, but it was understood that the question could not bo considered so long as a monarchy existed in Hawaii, hence it was absolutely necessary that the Queen be deposed.\u201d \u201cDo you be\u2019 lieve annexation will be brought about ?\u2019.\u201cNo, I do not think annexation is possible-On the Islands are employed some 40,000 contract laborers and this alone would prove an unsurmouatable obstacle, because this state of affaira would be directly contrary to the United States constitution.I am inclined to the idea that an arrangement will be made by which the Island will come under our protection but not be a part of us.There is not the slightest cause for alarm over tho recent overthrow of the Government.The busine&s interests are perfectly safe.I know the men who are at the head of the new Government and the} are cool headed and wise.\u201d San Francisco, Jan.30\u2014The Examiner prints the following interview :\u2014\u201cI received to-day,\u201d said Commissioner Castle, \u201ca despatch that satisfies us that President-elect Cleveland looks favorably upon our proposal.Naturally that has giyeu great encouragement to us.\u201d \u201cIf you are unable to come to an understanding with the Government at Washington, will you go to England with your proposals ?\u201d \u201cOur commission gives us no authority to go beyond theUnited States,\u201d replied Mr- Castle, \u201cif we cannot arrange terms with the United States Government we will returu home- Then, if the Island has to turn to England, a commission will be sent, but we hope that will never be neoea.sary.\u201d \u201cHow long will you remain at Washington ?\u201d \u201cUntil we learn definitely cf the reception or rejection of our offer.Should president Harrison\u2019s administration not give us ibe ayswgr we desire, we will in all probability remain until we can get another try.' In other words we will then w»it for Mr.Cleveland to\tassume\tcontrol and will\tre-submit\tour\tcase to t'qe new\tadministration.\u201d\t\u201cYou have stated that you have reassuring information concerning Mr.Cleveland\u2019s position in tha premises.Can you give more definitely the nature of this assurance ?\u201d \u201cWell, immediately on our arrival here I sent a personal telegram to Mr.Whitney, asking him to pbceour matter before the President-elect and learn how he considered it.To-day I received a reply from Mr.\tWhitney.\tWhile\tI\tobviously cannot make public the reply, it being in no sense an official or public document, I will say it was mqst satisfactory to us.\u201d A.Hoffnuug, Charge D\u2019Affaires of the Hawaiian Legation, received official news today confirming the report of a revolution in the Hawaiian Island* and the dethronement of Queen Lilinok&lani.The Hawaiian representative visited Lord Rosebery at the Foreign Office to discuss the situation with him.The correspondent is reliably informed that Lord Rosebery intimated that Great Britain would not be likely to intervene at present, Lori Rosebery also hinted that England, France and Germany would not be likely to consent to the.annexation of the Hawaiian Islands by the United States.The Princess Victoria Kawekiu Kaiulani Lunalilo Kalunlnuiahilpalta, heiress to the Hawaiian throne, has also received despatches from her aunt containing a record of recent events, All Dolmans now in stock at 8.Careley\u2019s, Montreal, have been reduced to half price for the January sale.Cbildraa Cry for

GAZETTE.MONTREAL CITY BILL POSTPONED.Press Gallery, Parliament HorsE, \\ MONDAY, January 30th, 1803.j The House sat to day both afternoon and evening, but the amount of business transacted was neither very largo nor very important.A few petitions were received and other routine business disposed of.Hon.Mr.Casgrain, Attorney-General, introduced a bill to modify the law relative to Judges of the Peace, which he said was to give to Coroners the same- powers as Judges of the Peace.Mr.Cartier introduced a law relative to municipal loans.MONTREAL CITY BILL.When the item to go into Committee on the Montreal City Bill was reached, Mr.Augé remarked that in view of the absence of so many Montreal members he was ready to postpone the consideration of the bill till Thursday, particularly as there was now no chance of having it finally passed before the 1st February.Thi*-waa agreed to by Mr.Stephens, and in fact by the entire House.QUEBEC AND LEVIS ELECTRIC LIGHT COMPANY.The House went into Committee of the Whole on the bill to amend the charter of the Quebec and Levis Electric Light Company, whioh went through all its final stages, being read a third time and passed.On motion of Mr.Jules Tessier, the House voted an order for a statement of the sums expended in the county of Champlain during 1892, for colonization.On motion of Mr.Turgeon, the House ordered the production of correspondence respecting the Beaumont road, after quite a long and uninteresting debate.QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.Mr.Tessier (Rtmouski) asked \u2014 What amount has been paid by the Government to Messrs.L.J.Demers A Frere, from the 4th November, 1892, to the 26th January, 1893, for tho printing of the Official Gazette ?Did the Government call for tenders before letting the contract of the 19th November, 1892, for the printing of the Official Gazette to the said Messrs.L.J.Demers A Frere, and Mr.Pelletier said that no tenders had been called, but that the sum of $450 had been saved on the price of the contract.This saving was on paper.It could not be on labor, which wa% dearer now than when the last contract was given oat.The different payments asked for had been as follows :\u2014$533, $425, $622, $1.000.Mr.Tessier (Portneuf) asked\u2014Docs Mr.Irwin Johnston, of the parish of Batiscan, in the County of Champlain, hold the position of Crown Lands Agent, or any other position ?What is his salary ?What amount of arrears has been collected and what number of lots have been sold by the said Irwin Johnston since his appointment ?Has this gentleman remitted to the Government the amounts he has collected ?Hon.Mr.Flynn replied that Mr.Johnston was agent for the Jesuit Estates, hut had no regular salary.He was allowed 10 per cent, on rent* collected by him and 5 on capita), and !iad made no sale*.He had made return* to the Government.PROTECTION OP FISH AND GAME.Pursuant to notice, and iu accordance with the statement made by him the other day to a deputation of Queliec sportsmen, Hon.Mr.Flynn moved the appointment of a Select Committee, composed ot Me>srs.Normand, Petit, Augé, Stephens, King, Tessier and the mover, to enquire iuto the causes of the destruction or disappearance of the fish in the lakes and rivers of the Province, also of the fur-bearing animals and game, etc.In support of his motion the hon.gentleman saieen bled.I am astonished that the present Government does not pqt an end immediately to such a state of things, The resolutions were road a second time on division and a bill based on them introduced and read a first time.AFTER REGERS.Hon.Mr.Nantel moved the second reading of the resolutions, reported from Committee qf tho Whole, respecting the maintenance of bridges, constructed by tho Government, in whole or in part and this was carried, as also were the second readings of Mr.Nantel\u2019s bill respecting Joint Stock Companies and of Mr.Casgrain\u2019s to amend article 100 of the Muni* cipol Code.There was, however, quite a debate upon the latter measure, and Mr.Bernatchez moved the six months hoist,which was lost by 9 for to 35 against.The House adjourned shortly after ten o'clock.Notes and News.HERE

Attacks the Threatened Crinoline Invasion.If lovely woman makes up her mind to stoop to this particular sort of folly she will find, too late, that it will betray.There is one thing about the matter that may be predicted, and that is that if the detestable, ugly, and undesirable fashion of extravagantly balloon-like skirts should universally prevail, it will te taken as a tacit throwing up of tho sponge by woman in the conquest which during the last two or three decades she has told us she was waging.It will be impossible to give the suffrage to a person who knows no better than to walk about in the middle of a sham distention.Besides, the acceptance of crinoline will show that the wearer has relinquished art and thrown science over as well as poetry, not to mention religion.It is just here that a hope springs up in the masculine breast.Art, science, and humanity fought against crinoline in the fifties and sixties and ultimately strangled it There may be old photographs of women in the abhorred thing, and there is possibly here and there a \u201cportrait of a lady\u201d introducing its hateful form.But uo sculptured statue embodies its distasteful and unpoetio outlines, and though Frith\u2019s \u201cRailway Station\u201d and a few other pictures of that sort may portray it, it is being more and more felt that the proper place for such productions is an ethnographic museum rather than an art gallery.The Muses, of course, do not wear cri noliue, they never did\u2014tacitly admitting the possession of legs like sensible females.There is only one set-off to the threatened advent of crinoline, and that is that of course peg top trousers will come in for men.And peg-top trousers always were, to say the truth, very comfortable.\u2014rToronto Mail Winter

He also regretted the absence of that great ex-leader of the Liberal party Hon.E-lward Blake, but thought it quite natural that he should apply his great ability to the solution of the political problems of that land of the Blakee and the O\u2019Donnell\u2019s.While the memory of the venerable leader of the Conservative party would ever remain green in the hearts of his followers in the House, they had found a worthy successor in the person of Sir John Thompson.To defeat the present leader of the Government he informed the Liberals that they Would have todo like Napoleon at Borodino aud rout the whole line.Comtog to the Speech from the Throne, he said the country had not progressed with leaps and bounds hut the progress had been healthy, much like the royal oak, the growth of which was in thin layers and was a thing of beauty amt joy foi.\" Centuries.The trade returns, ha maintained, proved that the country had progressed in marked degree.For instance the number of people employed in the various manufactories of the country in 1891, according to the last census, was 367,493, and in 1SS1, according to the previous census, 112,-561 less than that number.In 1891 Canadian railways carried goods valued at $91,217,753 and ten years before only $10,565,-323 Worth.The exports for 1891 were valued at $113,* 953,375, the imports at $127,468,068, while in 1881 they were valued at : exports, $102,-137,203, and imports, $119,419,500, showing the trade of the country to have amounted last year to $214,369,445, or an increase of $11.963,000 over any previous year.He pointed out that the policy of protection necessarily meant a decrease in the imports and an increase in the exports of the country.He was gl&d to notice also that the farmers of the country werb putting the natural products into manufactured articles.In 1892 the dairy products exported were valued at $12,804,708, while the value of the same class of products exported from the United States was $11,038,784, or one and three-quarter millions more from Canada with its population of 6ve millions than from the United States with its sixty millions.The revenue of the country in 1891 was $36.921,871, and the expenditure $36,765,-894, leaving a surplus of $155,077, this shows that the finances of the country had beeu carefully looked after.While these figures are satisfactory, the figures for the six months ending 31st Dfltember, 1892, are still more favorable.The receipts from the official trade returns are $18,559,024 of receipts and $13,842,497 of expenditure.He congratulated the Department of Railways upon the reduction of a deficit of half a million in the management of the I.C.R.to the nominal deficit of $7,000.This, he said, had been accomplished without any diminution in the efficiency of the road.He wonld be one of the first to complain if that road had suffered from an inefficient service, because it was the main bond which bonnd the Lower Provinces to the Dominion aud its efficient maintenance was the principle condition of Confederation.1 here had also, he said, been a, strong movement of immigration into the Canadian North-West.Homestead entries last year «bowed an increase of fifty per cent over the year previous.United States statisti-ians tell u«, ho said, that the annual output uf wheat from that conutrry is about 150, 000.000 bushels annually, but that the amonot required for home consumption was increasing at the rate of half a million bushels a year.It would not take long for this increase to wipe out the output for export and then the Canadian North-West with its vast and increasing output of wheat, would progress with leaps aud bounds.He congratuleu the Government upon their foresight in arriving at a basis of agreement regarding the national boundary bet ween the United States and Canada and the boundary of Passamoquoddy Bay, which, he said, vonld save serious complicatious in the future He hoped that the conference with Newfoundland would result in that Island entérine Confederation.Referring to the c&ual tolls disagreement, he said there was no mention in t he Treaty of Washington of the contention of the United States Government, that American tonnage should pass tree through Canadian canals.The Americans in 1885 took from Canada the bonding privileges and Canada could now demand those privileges back iu exchange for the privileges demanded by the Government at Washington.He was glad to see that the Speech fore* shadowed an amendment to the Franchise Act, to cheapen the cost of its administration.He hoped in the near future to sec mauhood suffrage in Canada.Tho amendment to the Act for the regulation of the admission of evidence in criminal cases, allowing an accused to give evidence on his own behalf, was also an important measure and would be a great acquisition to the Canadian Statute book.The closing paragraph of the Speech he regarded as the most important, that we should iu all our deliberations keep in view the welfare and stability of the country.This was of prime importance and unless followed out in all considerations of the House we would only grasp the shadow and miss the substance.Ho dwelt eloquently upon the resources of the country and regretted that there were some people wiio refused to place manacles upon that spirit of intolerance which threatened the future of Canada.Ho concluded by saying it was tiie duty of Parliament to build up the edifice of tho country\u2019s laws in strength and wisdom.Mr.P.Leclair, the new member for Terre bonne, seconded the Address in French.He congratulated the Government on their efforts to induce tb^^xpatriated French Canadians to settle in the Canadian North West.Hon.Mr.Laurier rose to reply amid a storm of applause from the Opposition benches.He expressed regret that ill-health had caused the retirement of Sir John Abbott from the Premiership, and on behalf of the Opposition offered congratulations to the present leader, whose rise in the House had been rapid beyond example.Referring to Sir John Thompson\u2019s recent speeches in Toronto, he complimented him upon the acquisition of a new humorous quality, that of flights of fancy.The leader of the Government, ha said, had stated in Toronto th.it the Government was now stronger than at hny time since Confederation.He agreed with Sir John that iu quantity the Government was very strong.(Cheers and laughter).He twitted the Government upon finding it necessary to unearth a still-horu statute in order to keep the political family in good humor, to unite the orange and the green os it were, by adding new jpôrlîolics to tho already cumbersome machinery of the Cabinet.He congratulated the mover and seconder of the Aildress.The mover, he said, had caught the true Ministerial spirit of e&ylng, in season and out of season, thal the country was itt a prosperous condition Strange prosperity, be said, was this on account of which the people were fleeing in thousands to other countries every year.He charged the Premier with attempting In his Toronto speeches to minimize the effects of the eXOduk, while his ow\u2019tt blue books told quite a different story.He could not but believe that Sir John Thompson spoke in ignorance of tne contents of the census bulletins when he made some of the extrordinary statement* he did in Toronto.He then went into a lengthy argument Id show thal the National Policy bad been a failure.The Government had failed to maintain a Friendly spirit in its intercourse with the United States, much to the detriment of the commerce of the country.He claimed that if the Government had acted with common courtesy towards the Government at Washington, a profitable and honorable trade arrangement might now exist between the two countries and the vast and profitable markets of that country be open to the Canadian farmers.The Franchise Act wa« a monstrous piece of iniquity perpetrated by tbe Government Through tho cumbersome working of that measure Mr.Tarte, the meihbe'r-elect for LTslet, was deprived 6f liis scat.He com-plaiucd that there was no reference to the result of the labors of the Temperance Com mission, nor was there a single word relating to that other Commission appointed to en quire into the conduct of a Minister Of th6 Crown.The Manitoba school question was also ignored in the Speech, though he had learned from tire newspapers that the Privy Council had prepared a report on the Subject, which, contrary to the rdies of Parliament, was given to the press before being submitted to Parliament.The report was remarkable document and contain ed a doctrine which abrogated td the Government the jndicial gowerà of Court of Justice.He thought it would ho ar.rtupnhionàble breach of the rules of Par-Itumcnt if this report was not laid on the table at once, and he would take this oppor tunlty of expressing his strong dissent from the extraordinary doctrine Contained therein No Government could constitute itself CcuVt of Justice., \u201e\t.Tho most important of all the important omission\u2019* in the Speech, was that not one Word was said about any change in the tariff.Was the House and the country to understand by this that the Government did not intend to mako any changes in the present tariff?If that was the case, it was something whiuli would cause discontent and sadness throughout the country.Ministers of the Crown, he said, in their speeches in western Ontario had held out inducements to the electors to vote for the Government candidates at bye-elections, by saying it was their policy to lop off the mouldering branches of the National Policy tree.The Government had failed to announce any such intention iu the Speech, and it was the duty of the House to speak with no uncertain sound.He then moved the following amendment to the motion for the adoption »o disorder or confusion observable.On the contrary there was a marked air of decorous solemnity.At 11 o\u2019clock the family entered tite parlor followed by tite Rev.Dr.Hamlin, of the Church of the Covenant, who, standing beside the casket, in a low tone delivered the Presbyterian prayer for the departed soul.Àft he din so Walter DamrosCh touched the keys of a piand to a slow dirge and the scene was an impressive one.This completed the brief and impressive service and the casket was closed and tenderly bdrne to the hearse.Solemnly find in silence the family and mourning guests left the house whfeh has been so frequently invaded by the angel of death and the sail procession wended its way to the church.Outside the house, the street was thronged with spectators who reverently doffed their hats as the pall bearers deposited their precious burden in the hearse ami while the attendants temporarily buried it under the many flowers.Tne cortege then started for tite church.The decorations at the church were very rich and effective.The space in front of the pulpit, in which the coffin lay, was entirely covered with floral emblems, which accoilt- 7:00 1.40 C.30 I A.M.P.M.P.M.17.45 7.45 way into the 'reasuryjand only a portion of panted the

organ, played an improvision made up of John Thompson\u2019s speech before the Board of several themes of hymns which Mr.Blaine Trade at Toronto* He claimed that the loved more than all 8.45 7.45 He claimed that the Minister of Justice had made a serious error w hen he said that the ratio of increase in ihe population between 1881 and 1891 was 1 per cent, as according to the official returns the ratio Uf increase was only lljf percent.He claimed that instead of the population having increased lljj percent, as indicated ______________ other musical mdtiveft.All present arose and remained
