Fracas\u2014Another Conservative\tElected\u2014The German Reichstag Closed\u2014Lynch Law in Kentucky.London, May 24\u2014The Queen\u2019s Birthday was celebrated to-day in the usual manner.The weather was clear and the sun bright.All of the public buildings were decorated with flags, etc.The anniversary will be celebrated officially tomorrow, when the Ministers will give their customary dinners, i he Prime of Wales will attend the dinner given by Lord Rosebery.Lord Rosebery dined with the Queen last evening, slept at W indsor last night and was given an au dience with Her Majesty this morning.The Queen approved the list of birthday honors submitted to her by the Premier.A deputation of the Chambers of the United Kingdom waited upon Lord Rosebery at his official residence, in Downing street, this afternoon.The visit of the deputation was in reference to the approval on the part of the Chambers of Commerce of resolutions Iiassed at the Intercolonial Conference recent-y held at Ottawa, favoring the establishment of Imperial postal and telegraph rates between the United Kingdom and the Colonies.The deputation urged the Government to adopt the proposals of the conference.Lord Rosebery and Lord Ripon w\u2019ere present, but SirWm.Harcourt and Postmaster-General Morley were detained by business in the House of Commons.The deputation included Sir Albert Kay Rollet, M.P., James Stanfield, M.P., F.H.Evans, M.P., and many other prominent gentlemen.Sir Albert Rolletjintrodbcedthedepntation,saying that the Chambers of Comrfferce unanimously favored the inauguration of a subsidized mail service between England and Canada, which should be equal in every respect to the present subsidized service to the United States.Such a line, he said, would reimburse the outlay in not only a saving of time between the United States and Canada, but also in communication with Chicago, St.Louis and other tiade centres in the interior of the United States.As regards cable connection with the Colonies, Sir Albert thought it would be necessary to construct duplicate lines, us in the event of war and the breaking down of the present cable, many parts of the Empire could only be communicated with thiough the courtesy of foreign nations.Mr.Plumlock congratulated the Government upon the promotion of a packet service between Canada and Australia.When the United Kingdom considered the advantages gained, they would assuredly recognize tho claim of the Coloniesto substantial aiil.Sir Joseph Pease and Mr.Thompson, a ship owner, also spoke in the same vein.Lord Rosebery replied, saying he was not able at the time to express the decision of the Government upon the subjects presented.He greatly regretted the absence of Sir William Harcourt, to whom he alluded as the \u201cguardian of the country\u2019s purse.\u201d Since they had received the report cf the Earl of Jersey, England\u2019s delegate to the Ottawa conference, the Government had appointed a department committee to consider the questions involved.This committee was still sitting.His own views of Imperial responsibility was mainly shared by the whole Government, as was evidenced in the recent measures looking to the increase of the fleet.The Government was considering the question in the concrete form and he hoped that the deputation would soon receive a satisfactory reply to their requests.He regretted that he could not go more fully into the question, but he said that he and Lord Ripon heartily wished God speed tothe claims that had been addressed to them.Sir Albert Rollet thanked/Thetr Lordships on behalf of himself and his colleagues, and the deputation withdrew.Sir Charles Tupper, Canadian High Commissioner, in an address before the Society for the I\u2019^pmotion of Christian Knowledge to-day, advocated more liberal pecuniary contributions as essential to the success of the movement.He referred to the' work of tho Emigration Committee of the Society in sending chaplains to Canada and otherwise continuing religious influence among the settlers in the Dominion and Territories of Canada, and said that since the federation of the Dominion there had been expended over £30,000,000 in opening up.tho country and another £1,000,000 in promoting immigration.The Society\u2019s aid, he said, in fostering religious knowledge in remote regions of the Dominion had met with due appreciation in Canada.The Archbishop of Canterbury presided at the meeting and in addition to the remarks of Sir Charles Tupper addresses were delivered hy I-ord Ha'sbury and the Bishops of Loudon and Bath.Upon the resumption of the trial of Oscar Wilde in Old Bailey Court to-day, Sir Frank Lockwood, Solicitor-General, made application for the reinstatement in the case of the evidence in regard to Shelley, wliich the Court eliminated in the case.f lie Court refused to grant the application.Sir Edward Clarke then opened the case for the defence.He complained of the unjust manner in which the prosecution of the case had been conducted and declared that because of this the defendant could answer only toa remnant of the charges.Wilde was then called to the stand and repeated tho testimony, he gave in his previous trial.W ilde was physica-ly weak and was allowed to sit whiletestify-ing.Wilde was cross-examined by SirJFiaticis Lockwood, who questioned him in regard to his letter to Lord Alfred Douglas in which he wrole ;__\u201cI know that Hyacinihus, who was loved by Apollo, was you in the Greek days.\u201d Wilde said he did not refer to love between men, but to an old poetic idea, not to a sensual, ignoble love.Regarding the young men he had met in Taylor\u2019s rooms, he said he had not asked their business.He liked them, he said, because th-y admired and praised him.He repeatedly denied he had been guilty of any misconduct.Wilde\u2019s testimony brought out nothing new.Sir F.Lockwood throughout his cross-examination carefully avoided giving the defendant any opening for a literary speech.ir Edward Clarke maintained that the coherent account which Wilde had given {of his relations with Taylor aud

glad to meet you,\u201d said Mr.Bond, \u201cas I desire to have this matter placed right before the public.As already stated, my principal object was to negotiate a loan to meetthe financial necessities of the Colony.I may add that a great many sensational reports have been circulated and I am surprised that the Canadian press, which above all others should be friendly to Newfoundland, should have given currency to such reports, la marked distinction was my treatment by the American press.The Boston press treated me most friendly.\u201d \u201cWhat success had you on your niLsinn

o\u2019clock this afternoon, Dr.Parkhurst on Female Colleges.Let it once be settled that womanliness is the finest product which a female college can yield, with all that tendency wifewant and motherward which is the instinctive outcome of womanliness\u2014I say, let this once be settled and a large beginning will alrea«ly have been made toward deriding the methods and machinery by which the college will do its work and compass its ends, writes the Rev.Charles H.Parkhurst, D.D., in the May Ladies Home Journal.With all this well in mind it is easy to wonder whether it quite comports with the situation that so much of the discipline and instruction of female colleges, as is commonly the case, should be in the hands of men.The question at any rate is worth asking.Such schools are so largely an innovation that it is reasonable to suppose that the best methods of administering them have not yet been hit upon.The male president of such college and such male professors as are upon its staff of instruction, m ty all believe that woman\u2019s chief end on earth is to be a wife and mother and to cultivate the best possibilities of her offspring ; and these male functionaries may all teach this doctrine with emphatic reiteration, but is it presumable that masculine influence will produce feminine effects?The gentlemen members of the faculty may be so thoroughly persuaded of the truth of what I have here been urging that they will be able to convince their lady pupils of the same truth ; but it is one thing to persuade a class of young women that womanliness is the greatest accomplishment possible to them, and quite a distinct thing to secure and mature iu them that womanliness.I never expect to see the teaching force of a male college ma le up, in part, of womeu.Why does it any more comport with the fitness of things that the teaching force of a female college should be made up, in whole or in part, of men?Is there any doubt but that if women ompetent for the position were attainable t*rey would meet the requirements of the cise in a way that men cannot ?Is it not pretty clear, without argument, that a thoroughly womanly woman can do more toward helping a college girl to become a woman than a thoroughly minly mao can do?We may become so wonted to an infelicitous usage as not to realize its infelicity.There would be no pertinence in these suggestions if it were the case that the object of a fern ale college is to make scholarly women.The Prejudice Against Sleep.The last word on the sleep discussion seems to have been spoken.It appears that, after all, the sleep sluggard is a very rare being.It is time that people were becoming sensible on this subject.The popular prejudice against sleep works an infinity of mischief.The tendency of the educated is to wakefulness, and the man who does intellectual work and exhibits what his friends «Link a disposition to oversleep, is obeying a healthy instinct.Sleep recuperates him, and he knows it.The popular notion that a young man who work with his head, yet sleeps for nine hours, is a sluggard, is popular nonsense.No man whose brain is active and who does not drink ever sleeps more than is good for him, and the cure, if he seems to do it, is to let him sleep till lie gives his habit up.Sleep is a delight till you have hud enough of it, but five minutes beyond that point it becomes a bore.Nobody sleeps twice around the clock, or even once, unless impelled thereto consciously or unconsciously by exhaustion, for which, again, sleep itself is the best and the most natural remedy.The contrary idea has arisen, there is good reason for believing, purely from selfishness.Many people of mature years have a lively recollection of the diligence with which they were routed out of their youthful bed, and they resent the idea of \u201cpampering\u2019 the younger generation, besides objecting to the extreme inconvenience ami household upsetting which arises when any one necessary member of the family will not \u201ckeep hours.\u201d It is a fortunate «lay for a man when he first discovers tho value of Ayer\u2019s Sarsaparilla as a bhxxl-purifier.With this mtilicine, he knows he has found a reme«ly upon which ho may rely, ami that his life long malady is at last conquered.Has cured others, will cure you.tn.tli.sat&w Venetian Women.Proved Wife\u2014\u201cDon\u2019t you

S.Carsley e Montreal.Hundreds of Remnants of ;rge Suit , Special Asparagus in the Market.SOMETHING ABOUT ITS HISTORY (New York Journal.) Delicious asparagus is the reigning vegr.tab!# in the market just now.As the market gardener grows in years he grows in wisdom, and by the application of science on the modern truck farm this toothsome edible hae been brought to a perfection that must make it rival the asparagus of the ancient Greeks and Romans\u2014esteemed by them, as it wat, their greatest vegetable luxury.Encyc\u2019opedias an«l text books on gardening speak at length on the antiquity of asparagus as a delicate article of food.The asparagus of to-day is the same «asparagus that Alex* ander the Great held between his fingers while he allowed the heads to melt in his mouth.It is the asparagus of Antony and Cleopatra, of the Popes, of the Louis, of the 1\u2018lantagcnets, the Tudors and the Guelph*.May it continue to the end of time, growing each yearjlarger in the stalk and more ; susceptible to the gentle arts of the chef, more inviting to the palate.Asparagus was asparagus when the potato was known only in Ireland and luscious red tomatoes were called love apples or tomatusea and considered to be unfit for human food.Asparagus is cultivated in all the civilized and half-civilized nations of the world, and the tender tendrils of the plant in its wild state are plucked and esteemed by savages.French asparagus as big around as yonr thumb and of snowy whiteness is canned and bottled and exported to America, where it sells for fancy prices \u2014f 1, $1.50 and $2 a bottle.But nowhere in the wide world has the cultivation of asparagus been brought to greater perfection than in the vicinity of New York City.The dry, sandy loam of Long Island is especially adapted to its development.The asparagus is an attractive plant that grows three or four feet in height, and bears a small berry, which is not edible.It is from the roots, which spread widely, that the asparagus for the table grows, seeking for the light.These tendrils must not be cut for the first two years of the plant\u2019s life.Then th y can be cut for ten or twelve years.The tendrils are cut after the seed-like top obtrudes, the earth being removed until the i arent roct is exposed.It is then recovered.Asparagus requires constant cultivation.The plants are ptimarily raised from seed, and then the sprouts are transplanted.An the young plants grow they are thinned out until finally planted in beds two and a half feet deep, richly mixed with compost.{Tte more of the latter the better.The asparagus crop seems to have been overdone of latB years.Atone time a rare and expensive luxury, it is now in its season one of the cheapest vegetables in the market, and the supply is fully equal to the demand.During the past week bunches of twenty-fonr to thirty stalks sold in the markets at from five cents to 15 cents each, and 18 cents was the price paid for the choicest that could be found.Like beauty, which unadorned is said to be most beautiful, the simpler the culinary treatment of asparagus the better.It can only be boiled or steamed until tender.Then it should be served with a drawn batter sauce, & plain white sauce, or a cream sauce.The uptown chefs all have their especial sauces, hut asparagus steamed is the favorite dish, and the sauce is only the chef\u2019s attempt to improve on nature.Many people are so luxurious that they only have serve 1 the tender tips of the stalks.If they only knew it, the true flavor is noc in the tips.A barbarous way of serving this delightful vegetable is to broil it on toast after steaming or boiling.This only serves to make it tough.One of the most delightful ways of serving asparagus is to first steam a lot of carefully selected stalks, drain dry, cover with broken ice until thoroughly chilled, and then .serve with mayonnaise, or, preferably, with & plain French dressing of oil, cayenne, salt and wine vinegar.Try cold asparagus.As a luncheon releve it has no superior.Venetian women are rarely pretty, often charming, generally handsonle.Anil all of them, without exception, walk splendidly, not taking little mincing feminine steps, but with a fine grave stride, due partly to the fact that they are accustomed to wear heelless slippers, which oblige them to plant the feet firmly, and the whole foot at once, without a chance of tripping on toes or pounding on heels, as women wno wear tight bools are able, and apt, to do ; they walk with much the same action as if they were barefooted, and just as well.And they use the whole body iu walking, net with the undulatory motion of the Spanish women, but with a movement of the whole back ami shoulders, in the exact swing of the stride.Venetian women do, however, remind one in many ways of Spanish womeu iu their way of «filing the hair, of wearing the mantilla, for instance\u2014the Moorish element, that is, coming out iu both, so that in Venice one finds quite as L Trengloas Stevenson, Soprano.Sim Fax, Character Vocalist and Reciter.C.Franklin Ward, Violinist.Miss Florence M.Ward, Pianist.Tickets 25c , 35c.and 50c.Plan for Reserved Seats at T.J.Moore & Ca s Bookstore.May 23.1895.\tth,sat&mon-C and fascinating style commends itself, at once, to all.No one can afford to do without it.Even our citizens, who may know Quebec very well, will find much that they never heard of before, in this tempting brochure.It is printed at the Chronicle office, and copies may be had at all bookstores.Purchasers of the little book should see that they get the map of Quebec with every number.Price 25 cents for Guide and map.May 22.1895.Is One of flie Strongest Financial Institutions in tie World.It has over $162,000,000 of invested assets.It has over $20,000,000 of surplus.It earned for policy-holders last year from interest and rents over $7,000,000____________________ 19» It is purely mutual, and all of its assets, surplus and earnings, belong to its policy-holders.#§» It has an honorable record of 50 years, during all of which time it has steadily increased in strength and prosperity.£9, i(8 policies contain no restriction as to residence, travel, occupation, military or naval service, method of life or manner of death.The SOLE condition is that if premiums are paid, the Company will pay the policy immediately, ia tho event it becomes claim by death.|9> It is non-forfeitable after three years, and if it lapses, the full benefit of payments either in a paid-up policy, or extended insurance, is granted.(J9- Grace of one month in the payment of premiums allowed.^ The New Business and New Premiums received last year, exceeded that of any other company.David Smith, General Agent, Quebec.M%y 20.189'».ACADEMY of MUSIC.Oaa Matinee and One Night Only.MOISTD^Y, MY Y 2 MATINEE AT 2 P.M.COGHLAN Rose and Charles .Presenting Their Latest Successes.ZU\u2019eaxxoo OldflolcA.JES xxoxxxl© » No advance in prices\u201423c., 75c.and $1.00.Plan now open.\u2022 May 23.1893.___________Ap ACADEMY of MUSIC.3 Alghta and Wednesday Mallaee.* Commencing Tuesday, May 28th.The Reigning Success, Du Manner's \u201c TIRIL IB TZV\u201d Dramatization in 5 Acts, by W.V.Ranoas, A Great Company In a Great Play.Billee Sketch \u201cTrilby\u2019s\u201d Foot Ï 3 Musketeers of the Brush !

while bats carry their helpless offspring tightly clinging to their breasts, and the females of many lemurs bear them clinging tf&nsverssly acros the under surface of the lower part of their bodies.In Surinam there is a remarkable toad-like creature, the female of w hich carries the j*oung in a series of cells in the thick skin of the back, which assumes a strange honeycomb-like appearance.W hen this lady toad is carrying her nursery about with her she is a very repulsive looking object.Single handed, she would be auite unable to cope wiih the important question of placing eggs where they will be most favorably disposed for hatching ; and for this she has to rely on the good services of her mate.Soon after the eggs are lank they are taken up by the male and pressed, one by one, into the\"ells into the thickened skinofhis partner\u2019s back ; there they glow tiH they fit closely to the hexagonal form of their prisons, each of which is closed above by a kind of trap door.After a period of some eighty-two lays the eggs reach their full development anil produce) not tadpolesi but actually perfect little toads.The reason of this is that tadpoles, wh\u2019ch require to breathe the air dissolved in water by means of their external gills, could not exist in the cells, and; consequently, this stage of the development is passed through very rapidly wiihin the egg.In due time the young toads, to the number of eighty or 100, burst open the lids of their cells, poke out their noses and make their entrance into the world.The mother toad rubs iff the remnants of the cells against any convenient stone or plat-stem, and comes out in a brand-new spring outfit.Among many of the.catfish tribe and other fishes the male obligingly relieves his partner of these irksome duties.He takes the season\u2019s consignment of eggs into his mouth, whence they are transferred to his capacious pharynx, there to remain until hatched.In the true pipe fishes the male is provided with a long pouch on the under surface of the tail, formed by a fold of skin arising ou either side, and the two meeting in the middle line.In this receptacle the eggs are safely carried until hatching time, when they thrust open the folds of the pouch.In others of the pipe-jïsh family the males have the pouch situated beneath the abdomen instead of under the tail.It is not a little remarkable that in certain allied genera the eggs are simply attached to the lower surface of the abdomen of the male, the pouch not having been yet evolved.Among many other curiosities of incubation Prof.Lydekker mentions the habit of the sea-stickleback, whose nest is a large structure composed of pendaut seaweeds tightly bound together into a pear-shaped mass by means of a silk like thread.As soon as the eggs have been placed in the nrst the mâle fish mounts guard, repelling intruders, and setting to work with the greatest energy aud solicitude lo repair any damage that may befall the nest.He has been known lo continue uninterruptedly at hislpost for upwards of three weehs.New Shapes and Rules For Hats (AT.Y.Advertiser.) In ihe array of hats the English walking shape appears, and is as natty and attractive as ever.The white straw with black ribbon is not seen, and the color of the straw is invariably closely harmonized with the color of the gown, the rule being that for the walking rig there must be no contrasts of color.Many of these hats are trimmed with a roll of satin ribbon about the crown, which is passed through a small ring of brilliants just in front, the ends spreading on the brim.To many this elaboration only spoils this style of hat ; the plainer it is the more suited to their liking.Nearly all picture hats have high crown», and a late notion is to set lace about the crown, tying it in place by a band of ribbon, the lace standing out crisply in a little ruffle at the top of the ribbon aod considerably above the top of the crown itself.The crown of the hat in this picture is surmounted by a bunch of forget-me-nots, and flanked on either side by loops of blue moire ribbon.From the centre of the bunch a delicate aigrette rise».A peculiar shade of gray straw is used for this hat.Enormous bunches of feathers are worn upstanding and a-wave on new hats.Never has black headgear been so popular.No matter what the gown a big cloud of black lace and plumes may be worn on the head, and, after all, nothing is more becoming.Little bonnets with a flat pancake ton of spangled lace have an upstanding frill of plaited chiffon, wired and edged with spangles to finish the front.Knots of roses are set low down at the sides.This is a pretty compromise with the Dutch bonnet, which will meet the requirements of the middle-aged woman who, when she wears a bonnet, cannot accustom herself to a head all bare.Sterling Exchange.\u2014New York, May 24, 11.00 a.m.\u2014At sight, 4.89.Sixty days, Liverpool Cotton Market.\u2014Liverpool, May 24, 11.30 a.m.\u2014Cotton, easier.American Middlings.3^1.New York Stock Exchange\u2014May 24\u2014 Oi>g.High.Low.\u2019Close -Bj{ - - - 335 -3Q C Gas.D& CF.Gen Electric.Lead.New England.Heading.Sugar.Tobacco.194 118 V 1114 New York Stock MAUKtrr.May 24-Stock market, firm ; Atoheson, S ; C B and Q, 80$ : Canada Pacific, 52 ; Canada Southern, 544; Delaware and Hudson, 132$; Delaware and Lnckawana, 1634 ; L and N.59V ; Lake Shore, 1464 ; Michigan Central, 100V ; Northern Pacific, 5J ; Northern Pacific, preferred, I'.ijj North-Western, 99J ; New V.,rk Central! 102$ Rock Island, 7'»; St Paul, 6TJ ; St Paul, nre ferred, 1304 ; St 1* and M, 111; Union Pacific, 15J ; Western Union Telegraph, 92J Latent Produce Markets.\u2014New York May 21 \u2014Cotton, quiet ; Gulf, 7 9,16; U| l.u;il-, t 5-16 ; futures, -toady ; s*-\u2019l*-rsi May, at 6.95; June, at 7.i>2 ; July, at 7.11 ; Aug, 7.22.Flour market, firm; receipts, 24,00t b; rrels : sale-», 3,000 barrels.Low extras,' at 2.7o to 3.45; city mills, at 1.40 to4.10; city mill pa ton to, at 5J5 to 5.15; winter wheats, low grades, at 2.70 to 3.45; fair to fancy, at 3 to 1.1.» ; patents, at 4.1u to 4.n0 ; Minnesota clear, 3.20 t \u2022 3.10 ; straights, at 3.M0 to l.1;\u2018 patents, at 3'.M) to a.10.Rye flour, firm sellers, a' 4.09 to 4.75.Wh- st- -teady ; rt ei r- 24-1,( 00bushels ; -ales, 5,490,000 bushels ; No.2 Red, sellers, July, at 80$c to fllgc; I Augr, at 803c to 81Jc ; Sept, at SOjc to Quebec.W A Griffith.0 Major Sheppard.3 G B S Young.0 Col White.5 G H Thomson.9 John Hamilton.0 W B Scott.0 Canon Von I Aland 0 WCJ Hall.2 E L Sewell.3 J G Garneau.0 H Hamel.6 G Gillespie.6 Rev L W Williams 0 Col Montizambert.0 W S Bennett .4 Surgeon Sewell.4 AD'Kschambault.0 Montreal.F Ntancliffe.J R Meeker.W W Watson.R McPherson.A Wilson.A G Gordon.W A Fleming.11 Rev Dobson.1 K Mann.J L Morris.W J Fenwick.K J Penny.J H Dunlop.T McDougall.A Ewan.Rev Campbell,.Geo Balfour.A H Harris.FIRST QUALITY IMIOTT\u2019S COCOA AUCTION SALES.BY LEMIEÜX, GALE & CO.15 CENTS.LOWEST PRICE !
