originate with us.We are prepared to listen to and discuss any details, if any proposals are made to us.It will be an opportunity to appreciate the spirit of justice of our opponents.But as far as principles are concerned, and the substance which is the foundation of our schools, it is useless to try to expect any concessions from us.The fight is well engaged, it would be useless to bring about a peace without any guarantee for the future.The well-being of the country requires that we should not be periodically exposed to be subjected to these agitations which put it out of breath.\u201d Unutterable.\u201cDo you not somttimi-s have soulful yearnings which you long to convey in words but cannot?\u201d asked the sentimental girl.\u201cYes, indeed,\u201d replied the young man, \u201cI

of the Quebec Skating Club took place at the Rink, Grande Allés, on Monday evening, the 20th instant.The accounts showed a small surplus of receipts over expenses on the past year, and that over five hundred dollars had been expended over and above what was subscribed for building the enlargement to the Curling Rink.The following were elected Directors for the ensuing year A.F.H int, M.Joseph, G.R.White, J.H.Holt, D.H.Geggie, Hon.T.C.Cxagrain, A.Laurie, F.Holloway and R.Campbell.At a meeting of the Directors, held immediately after the shareholders\u2019 meeting, A.F.Huut was re-elected President, and M.Joseph, Vice-President, and R.Campbell, Secretary-Treasurer.The Electric Mailway Scheme.GRANDE ALLEE PEOPLE DEAL IT A DEATH BLOW.Mr: Beemer\u2019s scheme to give Quebec an electric railway will likely collapse unless the action taken last night by the Road Committee should be possibly reversed at the adjourned meeting to be held to night.An essential portion of the scheme is the Grande Alice line, which a few of the residents have petitioned against, with the remit that the Committee last night decided by a vote of 5 to 3 to refuse the Company to use either St.Louis street or the Grands Alice.Messrs.Bussierea, Griffin and Boisvert voted for the Grande Allee line, and Messrs.Augers, Tessier, Pouliot, Drolet and Rancour against, though only Mr.Joseph and Mr.Ay 1 win appeared against it and the latter expressed himself in favor of the scheme as a whole, while Messrs.Kirouac, Amyot, Melhot, Chinic, Demers, Chambers, Ray and others appeared in favor of the Grande Allee line.A very large deputation of carters was {iresent against the entire scheme.Mr.Me-lennottaud Mr.Uueliet acted as spokesmen.The former made a clever speech arguing that Quebec was not suited for an electric railway, the streets being so narrow and curved, and the people sleeping nine months out of the twelve and requiring no rapid transit.Smiizsled Furs.THEY CAUSED THE ARREST OF MANY AMERICAN BUSINESS MEN.Special United St ites Treasury agents are at present in this city continuing their investigations into the extensive smuggling of valuable furs from Canada into the United States.For the past six months the authorities at Washington have had a large number of secret service officials working up the matter.They have been successful in unearthing probably the biggest conspiracy in the history of the United S:ates to defraud the Government., and has resulted in the arrest of one hundred business men and the seizure of over fifty thousand dollars\u2019 worth of valuable contraband furs, smuggled from Canada.The operations have been of an extensive nature, and furs have been seized from Maine all the way to California.A largo number of those arrested claim that they purchased the furs in good faith in Canada and that the party who sold the goods guaranteed to deliver them free of duly a: their places of business in the Unite-1 States.Instead of paying the duty the dealer sent the goods through by what is known as the \u201cunderground\u201d line.These men threaten to take action against the Canadian merchant.The Secret Service men will go to Toronto tonight to continue their investigations, after which they go to Quebec.The seizure is the biggest ever made by the U.S.officers\u2014Montreal Star.For Bicycler*.The gentlemen -and ladies\u2014of the \u201csilent steed,\u201d if they are wise, will not abuse the privileges which they now enjoy, No one will deny that the bicycle has become a factor in modern civilization\u2014a traveller with undoubted rights upon the public streets.No one would banish it thence, so long as it does not become a danger to the people.But the swift rider, Hying noiselessly along the asphalt, dai ling unexpectedly out from behind a carriage or a car, taking the crossings at top speed, is un ionbtedly a danger to the pedestrian\u2014particularly the very old and the very young.Bicyclers have taken to \u201cgetting up speed\u201d on the paths of Dmniuion square in the dusk of the evening ; and, under such circumstances, a collision with a child would very easily happen and would very easily be fatal.In their own interests\u2014as well as in ours\u2014 riders should avoid the possibility of such mishaps.The deplorable accident the other day in which an esteemed citizen was so badly injured serves to show the realness of the danger.Let people once gel to actively drea 1 the swift rush of the wheel, and most ii ksome by-laws and prohibitions will soon cross the path of the bicycler.S iciety is always at war with what it regards as a nuisance or a danger ; and society is a bad party to be at w.r with.The bicycle had better navigate the streets with mure noise ami less speed, if it values its present privi-leg's.\u201cA word to the wise,*' etc.\u2014.Montreal Star.Every word of the above applies, with equal force to Quebec.The bellshould he rung in the day-time, and at night a lamp, at well as the bell, should be used.Clothing For Fishing.Flannel, or natutal wool should he worn next to the skin, as these prevent chill.Outer garments should be as nearly as possible of what is called the \u201cdead grass\u201d shade.Corduroy, light canvas, or duck, are excellent materials for sui s, but an ol.l tweed suit of the proper color is almost us goo I.liie hat should be drab, or gr«y fell, with a moderately broad brim, as tliï Hash of sunlight upon water is trying to ri>e eyes.1 he man who knows how to wade, and who wades, will usually get better sport than the nwin who fishes from the bank.Light rubber waders are good, unless one prefers to \u201cslosh right in\u201d un-1 change clothes after reeling up.Blight niltuntings upon rods are a nuisance ind should be avoided.The aim of the angler should be to make himself as inconspicuous as possible, hence the wise man will avoid flashy metal mountings, no matter how pretty they may appear in the shops.\u2014Rod aod Gun Departmeut.\u2014for May, Vi HOUS3 OF COMMONS.Ottawa, May 21 \u2014In the House to day, the leader of the Government, immediately after the House met at three o\u2019clock, wanted to know if there would be any possibility of a vote being reached before the adjournment to morrow.Hon.Mr.Laurier thought not and did not commit himself to any opinion as to how long the debate would last after the meeting of the House on Tuesday next.Dr.Nproule continued the debate and spoke until a few minutes to six o'clock.AFTER RECESS.Mr.Biin, of Wentworth, followed.During the evening session Messrs.Me Donald, of Victoria, Bruuoau and Campbell spoke.Mr.Leclaire moved the adjournment of the debate and the House adjourned at 12 o\u2019clock.SENATE.Ottawa, May 21\u2014Tlie Senate met this morning for a few minutes.Senator Mclnnes gave notice of a number ot enquiries as to the dismissal and reappointment of Deputy Warden Fitzsimmons,of the British Columbia Penitentiary.-Sir M ickenzie Howell introduced a bill to amend the Indian Act, which, he explained, simply did away with anomalies in the Act passed last session.Senator Angers introduced a bill to amend the Copyright Act, which provides that three copies instead of two of all works submitted for copyright shall be deposited with the Department of Agriculture.It also provides that another copy shall be provided for transmission to the British Museum, which, he said, was entitled to a copy of every work submitted for copyright in the British Empire.-Senator Sanford read a petition from Elizabeth Colton, of Kingston, praying that her husband, William Wallace Colton, of Pictou, Out., be ordered to pay her expenses in defending herself in the bill of divorce sought by him.The petition was read and received and referred to the Divorce Committee.The Senate meets again to-morrow afternoon, when it will adjourn until Tuesday evening next.¥.11.V.A.Work, Reports of tiif.Springfield Convention.There was a meeting of the Y.M.C.A.last night, in the Association Hall, to receive the reports of the delegates to the International Convention cf America, which took Ïilace in Springfield, Mass., the week before ast.Mr.W.A Marsh, President, occupied the chair.Mr.John C.Thomson first addressed the meeting and began by describing the trip to the scene of the Convention.Springfield, he referred to as a very beautiful and hospitable city.Mr.Thomson then outlined the routine of the meeting.He referred specially to the progress in college work and in railroad work, and, in connection with the latter, made a plea for Sabbath observance.The speaker declared the Convention as about the most cheerful of the seven he had attended.After the singing of a hymn, Mr.Distin spoke on the Convention.He had -been particularly struck by the wide and ever extending scope of the Association\u2019s work.With reference to college work he instanced Yale which, a short time ago, almost infidel, now had 700 Y.M.C.A.members in its Associa i m and contributed $1,500 a year to support a missionary in China.The negro and Indian work he described as particularly interesting, while the foreign work, such as that in Japan und elsewhere, was not less so.This work, moreover, did not clash with nor in any way affect general church missionary work.It was a special work for young men among young men.The spiritual work of the Associatiou had been particularly ein-emph&sizod by one of the speakers and the force of liis argument and personality thoroughly thrilled his audience.A number of the other speeches and addresses were also epitomized.The grand meeting in the Opera House and the farewell meeting were both splendidly described.There were some 700 delegates at the meeting.Mr.Distin then shortly described the Hartford Convention of Y.M.C.A.Secretaries and physical directors.Several interesting anecdotes in connection with this meeting were related by the Secretary before he sat down.Mr.Marsh next male a few remarks in connection with the International Convention and expressed his great admiration for the Y.M.C.A.Building in Springfield, which cost $150.000.The fact was also related that a gentleman had given $100,000 towards a building for the Y.M.C.A.in Baris, France.Mr.Marsh here made a plea for the Quebec Y.M.C.A.swimming bath.The character of the musical portion of the Convention pirlicularly interested Mr.Marsh and the railroad work especially impressed him as it had the other delegates.After another hymn, R-;v.Mr.Love pro nounced the Benediction.to OPINIONS OF THE PEOPLE.( To the Editor of tht .Worninfl Chronicle Sir,\u2014The introduction of a system of rapid transit in Quebec would be such a benefit, that a good project should receive the sup port of all parties, but it looks as though the arrangement with Mr.Beemer was being car ried through too rapidly, and without suffi cienc care.The requisites for such a system are 1.\tSafety to passengers, aud also to the p3ople using the streets.2.\tRapid transit.3.\tConstant and regular service.Now, it is indisputable that a dead level service in our narrow streets cannot possibly fulfill one of these conditions, because secure safety the speed must be reduced to rate not very much in excess of the present systems, while to allow rapidity would mean a murderous slaughter of children and elder ly people, which would make Quebec the de testable rival of Brooklyn, where, as the Chronicle records to day, the trolley has murdered its 10th victim.The third requt site, constant service, is an impossibility with our snowfall and stormy winter weather.VV ith cars operated by electricity, a light and comparatively inexpensive overhead sys tern should be possible, which would secure a perfect service, and the increased cost of con struction, as compared with a level system would be compensated for in the larger traffic resulting from constant, reliable, and rapid service, and greatly reduced cost of operat ing, especially in winter.There is no need for haste, let the matter be thoroughly discussed, and let the Council advertise for offers, aud give the city the benefit of competition.The delay will do no harm, and will allow the election of a new Council instructed by the citizens as to their requirements.Tax pa yfr Quebec, May 20th, 1895.Public Health vs.Quarantine.(7o the Editor of the Alominij Chronicle.) Dear Sik^\u2014Of late some ugly rumors hav circulated oh u subject of vital interest to Quebec, as well as to the entire Dominion.It is rumored that from Ottawa, the dire dcree has issued, changing in toto, the place of disinfection, of incoming vessels, from infected ports.Instead of being cleansed and disinfected, as bas been done for the last sixty odd years, at the Crosse Isle station, P, Q , created in 1832, the process is to take place at our doors, in front of the city, at the Louise Embankment.It is there the experi ment is to be tried for the first time.The deadly germs of diphtheria, small pox, cholera and even yellow fever (and Grosse Isle had a visit of severalof the latter last year, but precautions and science stamped them out), are to be allowed a fuller scope and be met certainly without the usual attendant cir cuiustances of isclation, so easily, so effectually enforced at Grosse Isle, thirty miles lower than the porr, where not even the Prime Minister of Canada would dare to land without a special permit from the Health officer.At the Grosse Isle landing, there is no such neighborhood as at the Louise Embankment, no crowded port, nor wharves, surrounded by deal bateaux, tug boats, coasting craft, muuned by careless sailors, careless of their own and other people\u2019s health, the C.I*.R.trains and the emigrant sheds in the vicinity.One wonders whether the .Superintendant of Quarantine and Health, Dr.Montizambert, whose word one is lead to believe ought to be law as to the mode and place of disinfecting shins, one whose liie time sMidy of the subject has been received as authority, by the scientists of tlie.U.S.as well as of other places\u2014one wonders, if oblivious of his own teaching.-*, he could have advised this change, should tüe arrival of the tirst infected ship m port denote it.Would you, Dear Mr.Editor, allow the public to enquire, through your columns, whether the new experiment is to he tried in the port of Quebec.Quebec, M iy 21, 1895.STR A FLOWERS !

Aas u ( \u2019.isc of Mutual Fir*t fridit.a Club uml it Love at London, May 10\u2014Mias \u201cBirdie\u201d Sutherland, the chorus girl at the Gaiety Theatre, who has sued Dudley Cliurchill Marjoribanks, son of Baron Tweedmouth, for breach of promise, is very handsome, nearly G feet tall, and only eighteen years obi.Her real name in Annie Louise Watkins.She first met young Marjoribanks at a club.It was a case of love at first sight.He proposed and was accepted.\\V hen his parents learned of the affair they were very much disturbed.However, when it was discovered that Miss Sutherland was of unimpeachable char.acter, Lord Tweed mouth said it the couple would consent not to see each other for a year, and if at the end of the year both were of the same mind, he would not place any obstacle in the way of the marriage.But young Marjoribanks still haunted the Gaiety Theatre.One night Lord Tweedmouth found him there and persuaded him to leave.Sir George Lewis, the Marquis of Queens-berry s counsel in Oscar Wilde\u2019s suit for libel, was called in as mediator, but without avail.Parental remonstrances were likewise useless.It is said Lord Tweedmouth offered to send Miss Sutherland to the Continent to study music under the best misters, but she refused to go.Then young Marjoribanks went to Canada with his mother on a visit to tho Karl of Aberdeen, Governor General of Canada, w hore wife, Lady Aberdeen, is a sister of Lord Fweedmouth.The young man did not return with his mother to England, hut remains in Canada, and the match was broken off.Miss Sutherland placed the case in the hands of a Well-known theatrical lawyer, who retained in her behalf Sir Kdward Clarke, who defended Oscar Wilde in his recent trial ; Mr.C.F.Gill, who appeared against Wilde, and various other legal talent.\u201cBirdie\u201d Sutherland has attained more notoriety than she ever had before in her life by suing Dudley Churchill Marjoribanks for breach of promise.It is expected that the trial will create as much public interest as the Belle Bilton and Lord Dunlocase.\u201cBirdie\u201d Sutherland is scarcely as well known or so famous a stage beauty as was Belle Bilton, but the powerful social influence exerted by Lord Tweedmouth\u2019s family and the prominence of the counsel engaged will compensate for anything lacking in that respect.Miss Sutherland began her stage career as a chorus girl in the Gaiety Theatre, in one of Fred Leslie\u2019s burlesques.She developed a talent for character work, and soon left the chorus to do specialties in the music hall.She is shapely, pretty and very ambitious.Lord Tweedmouth is believed to be the most intimate friend of Lord Rosebery, the Prime Minister.Mr.Gladstone always show ed him especial favor as a Liberal whip.The family made its money in the brewing business.The homestead, near Hyde Park gate, is one of the handsomest private houses in London.It is often referred to as \u201cthe lucky house of Marjoribanks.\u201d Hundreds of Remnants of Tw\u2019ced and Serge Suitings and Trouserings to be cleared at Special Prices at S Carsley\u2019s Montreal.CARTERS ITTLEB [VER PILLS.CURE Hick Headache and relieve all tho tronbias (net dent to a bilious state of the ayatem auch as Dizziness, Nausea.Drowsiness.Distress aftet eating.Fain In the Side, &o.While their most rsmarkable success has been shown in curing SICK Headache, yet Carter s Little Liver Pills ar* equally \\aluable in Constipation, curing and preventing thisannoyingcomplalnt.while they also correct all disorders of the stomach stimulate the liver and regulate the bowels cored Even if they only HEAD Ache they would bealmoetprlcelecatothoaewbO suffer from this distrcsalng complaint but fortunately their goodness docs not end here, and thoee, who once try them will find these little pills valuable In ao many ways that they will not be willing to do without them.But after allelck heed ACHE Is the bane of so many lives that here Is where we make our great boast.Our pills cure it while others do not.Carter\u2019s Little Liver PilM are very small and very easy to take.One or two pills make a dote.They are strictly vegatablo and do not g-upe or pnrge, but by their gentle action please all who use them.In vlals&t 2âce»is , ûvo lor f 1 Hold by drnaglats everywhere, or sent by mad.CARTER MEDICINE CO., Hew York.MIE Small Bs».Klver FrelElifa.Montreal\u2014Molasses, 75c.]>er puncheon.Salt, 8c.per sack.Coal, *1.00.Iron, 81.00 iter ton, sailing.Scrap Iron, $1,10 jier ton.Sawn Lumber, Pine and Spruce, jier 1,000 feet, board measure, $1.00;
