prices are firm and unchanged and the consumptive demand is fair.The following is from the N.Y.Bulletin : There is some little call from local and out-of-town dealers whose stocks have run down, but the demand by no means general and the market as a whole presents a weak and unsatisfactory appearance, more especially for all grades below strictly fancy.Receipts continue on rather a liberal scale and stocks steadily accumulating.Western creamery is plenty, and though really fancy quality bears a small proportion to the supply, still that grade is apparently ample for present requirements and the feeling no more than steady.Next grades under are plenty and dull, with free sellers at 18c@20c.Lower grades are greatly neglected and prices little more than nominal.State creamery pails are generally held at 24c in a wholesale way, but demand slow and that price occasionally shaded.State dairy tubs in swall supply, and really fine heli about steady.Imitation creawery and western dairy very slow and weak.Factory butter dull.\u201d Exporters only bid 12i¢ for Iadle-packed that they have been paying 13¢ for the past fortnight or so, We quote as follows :\u2014 \u2014~Cents\u2014 Creamery.oiiuiaey cvnirenns.ne.190 2 Eastern Townships 17 @ 19 Morrisburg.- 17 @ 19 Brockville.,.-17 @ 19 Western 15017 Cuersr\u2014There was no change in the cable quotations to-day.The market here is tairly active as the stock must be moved, but the feeling is by no means lively and prices show no signs of improvement.We make the following extract from the N.Y.Bulletin :\u2014 Xo great amount of business has been done to-day, but the market has a rather better appearance and there seems to be a chance for fancy stock making some little gain.Indeed, there is no doubt that perfection of quality would command former rates readily eaough, pos- 8ibly a fraction more, as quite as certain that nothing could be obtained unless higher bids were made, receivers who are likely tohave anything of high standing asking at least }¢ more, and some talk as though they expected to do even better.In the absence of reported sales we cannot consistently mark up quotations, but former extreme figures are now inside, and probably would not buy.The gain in value in central New York, the probable absence of combination factories and the generally better weather indications are all favourable features, though exporters as a rule claim a continued absence of cheering accounts from abroad.On home account there isa very good demand, both on orders and the personal attendance of buyers, but a great deal of close figuring over all transactions, except in small sizes State factory goods.The receipts and exports of cheese from New York since May lst (the beginning of the trade year) compare as follows :\u2014 Receipt.Exports.PKgs.Lbs, For weck ending Sept.25.39,15 1,996,771 Sarne wcek, 1887.59,534 1,592,114 Since May 1, 1888.1,246,740 51,251,528 Same time last vear.1,320610 54,037,714 The N.Y.Journal of Commerce says: \u2014 Receipts of cheese were light.Factory men are evidently holding back in expectation of better prices.The light receipts brought ouf more interest on the part of exporters.Best brands are accordingly stronger, but the buoyancy has not yet reached medium and common grades.Some consignments of September cheese will arrive this week, for which dealers expect to get 9 cents for coloured and 8} cents for white.August cheese is not meeting with any imperative demand unless absolutely faultless.Considerable interest attaches to the meeting of the trade to be held at the Mercantile Exchange this morning, the majority of the trade evidently expecting that substantial benefits will result from it.Holders ot butter are inclined to make concessions to meet the views of buyers, and these concessions, backed by the return of cool weather, are looked to to reduce present supplies in anticipation of the large receipts which all advices from the producing sections point to as an element in the near future.We quote as follows :\u2014 Finest colored.81@ 84 Finest white.8 @ 8;

correspondent of the Woon- socket Patriot tells how a young policeman, Charles Maynes, stops a runaway horse: \u201cWhen you see a runaway coming do not try to check him by a rush from the opposite direction or the side, for you will be immediately knocked flat by the collision, but instead prepare yourself for a short run with the horse.Measure with your eye the distance, and start for the run while: he is yet some way off, perhaps ten feet in the case of fair to medium runaways.You may depend upon his keeping a straight line, for a really frightened horse is half blind and would not veer for a steam engine.He will go straight ahead until he smashes into something, So do you get close to the line on which he is rushing, and as he passes you grab the reins near the saddle.Gather the reins firmly, and then, leaning backward as you run, give them a powerful yank.You may be able to brace yourself as you give this yank, half sliding on your feet.The strong jerk on the bit tells the horse that he again bas a master and prepares him for the final struggle.A step or two forward after the first yank, \u2018do it again, This is the finishing stroke.It never fails when given by a determined man.The horee is on its haunches.Keep a firm pull on the reins till you grab the horse by the nostrils and hold him so till he is pacified.\u201d In stopping a span of horses Mavnes tries to get on the side of the wilder one, as, if pulled to its senses, the other one can be managed.The task is easier if the horse has a curb bit.A runaway away may also be stopped by the driver in the same manner.\u201cIf you pull steadily with all your strength on a curb bit,\u201d says Maynes,\u201d the effect on the horse\u2019s jaw is just what it is if you tie a cord tightly about your finger.The blood doesn\u2019t flow and the finger becomes numb.After a firm pull has been maintained on the horse\u2019s mouth for a while it ceases to have any effect.You can not then force him out of a run if he is frightened.But give him his head a little till the mouth recovers from its numbness, lash him with : the whip if you have a free road, ani ; then give him a sudden yank.He wil.come down.If the first yauk isn't i im one more.There isn\u2019t a horse HE which canrun away with a competent driverif the harness holds.\u201d Maynes has risked his life a number of times, and has had some perilous encounters before subduing frightened animals.He has received a medal from the humane society and $350 from the cab society.A CITADEL OF STUPIDITY.It is a notorious fact that our kitchens are the strongholds of ignorauce, prejudice, irrational habits and mental vacuity, with the result that Americans suffer beyond any other people from wasteful, unpalatable, unhealthful and monotonous cookery.Acquiescence in this state of things as something permanent and irremediable is no longer possible.The time has arrived when the advance of intelligence and the spirit of improvement must invade that citadel of stupidity, the kitchen, and banish from it all degrading associations by the presence of trained women who have made the work there carried on a matter of serious study.Cooking should be done as Northcote mixed his colours, \u201c with brains.sir!\u201d The difference between cooking that is good and cooking that is bad is very much an affair of attention to trifles.And this power of atten\u2018ion to trifles is the outward and visible sign of the inward and well ordered brain.Slight mistakes, small omissions, little things done at the wrong time spoil dishes, and therefore much bealthtul enjoyment.The charm of good housekeeping is the order of economy and taste displayed in regard to details.The little things are the great things after all, when their influence is taken into consideration.\u2014 New Fork Medical Journal.AN ANECDOTE OF WEBSTER.A reminiscence of Daniel Webs'er, never told before in print, was related here the other day by a contemporary of the Massachusetts senator.It illustrates more forcibly than any hitherto recorded the extraordinary influence of his oratory.Webster had given a friend his note for $5,000.A miserly old Whig\u2014 the richest man in Alexandria\u2014bought the paper at a sharp shave.He admired Webster and trusted him.The note matured.The senator could not pay.The miser dunned Webster persistently, but without effect.Mr.Webster made a positive appointment to meet him one morning, but was not to be found either at his home or in the senate.The note holder was walking away from the Capitol in despair when he saw Webster approaching with head high in air, eyes sunken with far away look, lips parted and teeth showing in broad smile.The old Whig lost courage and passed without recognition, Next morning, in perusing the newspaper, he read Webster\u2019s reply to Hayne.At once he took the orator\u2019s note and tore it to pieces, so prodigious was the effect of the splendid philippic.\u2014 Washington Cor.America.THE CHANGE IN WATCH CRYSTALS.There have been some carious changes of late years in the fashions for staple commodities, and especially is this true in the matter of watches.The watch is either looked upon as a trinket or as an article of serious use.In the first instance it is set in a round ball, incrusted with small diamonds, sometimes intermixed with rubbies or with sapphires, or it forms the top of a smelling bottle, or is set in a bracelet or the handle of a parasol.But the serious watch of every day wear has become a practical article indeed.\u201cIn old days,\u201d said to me a famous Swiss jeweller of the Rue de la Paix the other day, \u201cthe business of replacing watch crystals was an important item, amounting, on an average, to $30 per week.Now, instead of the delicate, soap bubble glass formerly used, the watch crystal is made thick and strong, so as to stand any amount of rough usage short of an actual blow.The introduction of these massive crystals has brought about a change in the make of watches.Not half so many hunting cased watches are sold as formerly, as they are so much less conven ient than the open faced ones, and the thick crystal does away with the only real objection to the latter.\u201d\u2014Puris Cor.Philadelphia Telegraph.EVOLUTION OF THE SNEAK THIEF.The first depredations are made when as little children they rush through the streets and descend like a plague on a fruit vender\u2019s cart or a grocer\u2019s corner, and are gone before the proprietor has time to protect himself or catch them.They are then school children with at least half a chance of becoming respectable workingmen.Those who are so inclined easily take the next stap, which is that of stealing for men and youths who plan what they shall do and reward them meagerly.Their small hands, while they are children, make them very useful to adult thieves in opening the bolts behind barred area gates.Their tiny bodies enable them to crawl through fanlights.Thus they become full-fledged eriminals, drifting about the city by day and by night in an army that must number thousands.\u2014New York Cor.Providence Journal, A Double Recommendation.\u201cWe have used Dr.Fowler's Extract Wild Strawberry, and find that for diarrheea it cannot be equalled, We cannot speak too highly of it,\u201d Ernest Clare Cross and Roy

Court House Crowded Yesterday.\u2014_ The Prisoner Well Defended.The interest of the public in this term cÎthe Queen's Bench culminated in the Caza trial, which was opened yesterday morning, at least judging from the immense crowds which were gathered on Jacques Cartier square long before the arrival of the jail carriage.A subdued whisper passed through the ranks of the spectators when the athletic and almost giant figure of Alexis H.Caza stepped frem the vehicle' handcuffed.Honour able the Chief-Justice took the Bench at 10.15 o\u2019clock, and Mr.R.Prefontaine arpeared for the Crown, whilst Messrs.TL C.St Pierre, A.E.Poirier and Mr.C.A.Geoffrion, ().C., acted as counsel for the « efence.The prisoner, being called to the dock by ti e clerk of the court, stepped up t the railing with a sort of a swinging motion and took hold of the rail.His figure is one that is not easily forgotten; over 6 feet in height, exceedingly broad at the shoulder, slight and slim waist, a very dark complexion, high forehead, black bair and a short, cropped, black moustache.From his vest dangles a heavy gold chain, with an enormous gold nugget suspended from it, and on his finger be wears an

anxiety.His Honor hesitated when Mr.St.Pierre asked that the prisoner be given a chair, and said that this was getting a too frequent request.However, as the Crown had no objecticn, a chair was offered him.The following jury were then em- pannelled : Prosper Maheu, Guillaume Gratton, Xlzear Lesperance, Wilfred David, Francois Perr:ault, Jos.Bien- | venu, Jos.A.Gougeon, J.B.Lanouette, Come Bissonnette, Andre Bisson, Ma- gloire Desparois, Joseph Ledoux, Charles Eelisle, Oct.Therrien, After stating the facts of the case to be proved by the Crown before the jury the witnesses for the prosecution were excluded from the court.CORONER JONES produced the documents of the inquest be held on the victim, Joseph Pilon.Joseph Lalonde, a young man of Coteau Landing, was the first witness called by the Crown.He had sean the prieoner for the first time sitting on the stoop in front of 8, G.Carriere\u2019s store, at Coteau Landing, at 11 o'clock, on the night of August 14, the night of the alleged murder.He was facing Pilon\u2019s hotel and sitting alone.Lalonde came to Pilon\u2019s hotel at that time and met Mr.Richard Methot there, who toid him that young Pilon had had a quarrel with a commercial traveller.Just then, Joseph Pilon passed him and went out towards the side of the hotel where a vehicle stood, from which he took a big satchel and threw it on the ground.He had a lantern in his hand at the time.At that moment Caza got up from his seat on the stoop and went towards Pilon, saying: \u201cThat's my properly and I don\u2019t want it to be abused !\u201d Pilon did not reply There was another smaller satchel lying on the ground beside the buggy.Lalonde all that time stood atthe corner of the house watching the proceedings.Pilon went around the buggy going towards the head of the horse.At that instant Caza and Pilon met.Whether or not Pilon struck Caza the witness could not tell, but he heard Caza say in a loud voice: \u201clam not frightened of your little slaps!\u201d However, Caza stepped back some five feet and Pilon again went towards the horse, and Caza pulled out a revolver, raised it, and said: \u201c I could blow your brains out.\u201d Caza had had bis revolver in his hand when be left Carriere\u2019s stoop.2Pilon took the horse by the bridle and was proceeding towards the shed whilst Caza picked up the smaller satchel and threw it on top of the larger one, saying: \u201c If you were not a countryman of mine I would blow your braing out.\u201d Caza, with these words, turned towards the street aud Pilen returned immediately from the shed.Caza at that said: \u201cDon\u2019t you come near me, or I'll shoot,\u2019 and a few seconds later the witness saw the flash and heard the report of a revolver.Caza fired that shot.Lalonde did not see Pilon fali, but as soon as he heard the shot he hastened to the spot and found that Mesdames Pilon and Marchand Wire already at the side of the deceased, to ith their aid he took the body

crying out: \u201c Father, father ! come to my help !\u201d \u201c \\tthat time young Pilon and \u2018aza wero alone in the wagon.I was with Julien Carriere, who said to me \u2018Let us go and see what is the matter ?\u201d \u201cWhen we got thers we found out tbat Elie Pilon was very drunk.I caught kold of him\u2019 by the shoulders to make him come down from the wagon.Just then Carriere calied out to me, \u2018 let him go ; he has got a revolver) alluding to Caza.1 did not see the revolver.At that moment the prisoner threw young Pilon out of the wagon, The latter had the reins in his hand.I ran and caught the horse by the bridle.Julien Carriere then picked up Pilon and helped him on to the sidewalk.I assisted Carriere to bring Pilon up the steps of his father's house.Caza was still in the wagon.When we got there Andre Montpetit helped me to carry young Pilon into the house.We went in by the middle door; while doing so we lost sight of Caza.When old Pilon heard HIS SON CRY OUT FOR 1IELP he cane out in his underclothing towards the wagon.Atthe same time he brought out a chair.I donot know what for.He then went back to the house, saying to me, \u2018take care of my son\u2019 He went up to his room to dress.When Caza came into the hotel, Giroux was holding young Pilon.The old man came down with a lantern, and he and Caza went outside.He chrew tbe prisoner's trunks out of the wagon on to the ground, and took his horse under the shed.It was then that the altercation took place, and Caza shot Pilon.\u201d * After the prisoner had shot at Pilon be went away and took the road leading up the hill.When I cane near the body of deceased his wife and daughter were already there.They had been drawn to his side by the report of the revolver.Caza left his trunk and valise at the very spot where Pilon had thrown them out of the wagon.I have no recollection that there was anything said between Elie Pilon and Caza whenthey came into the hotel.I have no recollection of any conversation between the deceased and the accused before the former went to take his horse to the stables.During that time Caza was sitting on the stoop of Carriere\u2019s store.\u201d CROSS-EXAMINATION, Cross-examined by Mr.St.Pierre\u2014\u201c I know the last witness, Joseph Lalonde.He is the nephew of the deceased.I do not know what the quarrel was between the prisoner and Pilon.Caza wanted to be driven down to the wharf of the steamer Bohemian, and took the reins from the hands of Elie Pilon.It was at this moment that the latter cried out to his father to come to his assistance, and that Caza threw him out of the wagon.When we got into the house I saw Madam Marchand coming down the stairs with a stick in her hand.As soon as the prisoner saw her he caught her by the wrists.I do not know whether Madame Marchand was going to strike him or not.I have heard since that Caza had $1,100 on him and that it had disappeared.I am certain that young Pilon was not feigning but was REALLY VERY DRUNK, When Pilon said to the accused, \u201c Get out of this,\u201d Caza did not say a single word, but went out very quietly.Though Caza had told Pilon not to touch his trunks, the latter persisted in doing so, and set to work to move them away.Antoine Montpetit, farmer, of St.Zo- tigue parish, deposed : \u201cIknewthe deceased Joseph Pilon very well, but never saw the prisoner at the bar before the night of August 14th last.On that occasion I was spending the evening at the store of Julien Car- riere.We were waiting for the steamboat.I had stretched on the counter End gone to sleep.Suddenly Iwas awakened by hearing young Pilon cry out: \u2018Father, father, come to my assistance.\u201d 1 ran out immediately and saw young Pilon under the wheels of the wagon.At that moment Caza was in the wagon.I uelped R.Methot to carry Elie Pilon into his father\u2019s hotel.When I gotto the wagon Pilon, his wife and Mrs.Marchand his deughter, were already there.On going into the house I saw Mra, Mar- cband coming down the stairs with a club in her hand, and the accused CAUGHT HOLD OF IIER BY THE WRISTS, She cried out to her father: \u201cHe is a ruffian!\u201d \u201che is squeezing my arms!\u201d Old man Pilon then put Caza out of the house.The deceased had only his underclothing on him at the tim2, He asked me to take care of his waggon while he went up stairs to dress.I came out on the gallery and watched the horse.While there I saw the priscner sitting on Carrier's shop right opposite to Pilon\u2019s hotel.Pilon shortly came out of the house and had a lantern on his stump- arm.He left the lantern on the steps and went to the waggon and began to throw out the trunk and the satchel.Pilon\u2019s left hand had been amputated some time before.\u201d Atthat moment I saw Caza get up and cross the road toward Pilon, and say to him, \u201cIs that the way you knock about my goods.\u201d Some words then passed between them which I aid not understand.The prisoner was then about thirteen or fourteen feet from Pilon.Igaw that the accused had a revolver in bis band at the time.When he went up to the deceased, he said \u201c If you were not a fellow-countryman of mine, I would HAVE BLOWN OUT YOUR BRAINS long ago.\u201d To the best of my recollection Pilon did not answer, but he took his horse into the barn.He then came back towards the trunks.I cannot say whether he bad his lantern or not.At tbat moment Caza told him not to touch his trunks or he would kill bim.Seeing that Pilon persisted, the prisoner fired at him He was then five or six feet from accused.I saw the revolver in the prisoner's hand and I heard the report.He aimed for the heart.I was then on the steps of the steps of the gallery at the side of the

of the Liberal party to the true character of the Montreal Witness, a journalistic Iscariot that has hitherto been regarded with some favour by the more credulous members of that party.People are now saying that they understand its character a little better than they did.The impression has been much strengthened that it is a crank merely by profession, and that its garb of piety is a very useful cloak.The oppo- aition of the Witness to Mr.Poirier and its support of Sir John Macdonald\u2019s candidate surprised and shocked a good many people who have not studied the ways of professional hyprocrites, Lut no doubt the Witness knows its own business and had suflicient reasons for stabbing the party to which it professed to belong.The precise way in which it was brought over to the Tory side can only be conjectured.It has, however, done more injury to the cause of temperance by alienating friends than a dozsn such \u201cMawworms\u201d could undo.Of course course it will say that it supported Sir John Macdonald in the cause of temperance ; a very ingenious defence of Judas Iscariot was once published and Benedict Arnold had some excuses to offer; but the world is not easily mistaken when contemplating a traitor.In abandoning its friends to make common cause with a Minister who has had sufficient honesty to declare that he is opposed to temper: ance legislation, the Witness has shown the value of its moutby protestations, and ought no longer to be able to deceive anyone.Just as it did its little best to injure Mr.Blake, so it has turned against Mr.Laurier and his friends.The Witness does not deceiva itgelf in the matter.It is thoroughly aware that Mr.Lepine, if he were a prohibitionist, would have as little power to influence prohibition legislation in Parliament as the Witness itself.It knows what Sir John Macdonald's views are on the subject; it expects nothing\u2014in the shape ot legislation\u2014from a Cabinet in wl ich Sir John Macdonald, Mr.Carling, Mr.Costigan, or its newly made friend, Mr.Chapleau, have places, but it may still attempt to pose as a friend of temperance and continue to sniffle pious axicms to delude those who are simple enough to trust it.The \u2018*\u2018combinesters,\u201d no doubt, will rejoice over their new ally, and will forgive its apparent hostility at other times in consideration of its activa support during elections.And the Liberals of Montreal, we trust, will remember the snake they have been nursing and be deceived by it no longer.In an article published in its issue of yesterday, the nsw protectionist anti- Liberal orgau endeavours, as we thouzht it would, to excuse its treachery on the ground that Mr.Lepine is a prohibition candidate ; although it is forced to admit that he is not even an abstainer ; and it hasths unbounded impudence tosay that the English vote of the constituency went solid for Lepine because he was a prohibitionist.There can be no crank in the city of Montreal cranky enough to believe that story, and none but a thoroughpaced hypocrite would make such a statement.Another reason for the desertion of its political principle ; or we should say another alleged reason, for we have our own opinion of what has been at work ; is that the Conservatives swallowed Lepine, prohibition and all.Of course they did, why should they not; they knew right well that they could not elect one of their own men, and they.anappel their fingers at Mr.Lepine's alleged prohibition sentiments.They cared rothing what he might call himself ; they knew they had drawn his teeth and that henceforth he was a John A.Mac- donaldite whether he liked it or not.As for any temperance ideas\u2014they have muzzled others before him ranters of the first water, and they were not afraid of Lepine.We can imagine the amused smile of the great and good Sir John, and the sardonic grin of Mr.Chapleaus when they were told that they would have to accept a person who was willing to pledge himself to prohibition.Sir John knows well enough that when Mr.L-pine has been subjected to the patent Ottawa milling process he will come out as a good Tory and as little of a prohibitionist as Foster, Jamieson, Freeman and the rest of them.We have je little sympathy with those voters, if eo be gulled by Sir John's new friend, the : there were any, who allowed themselves Wines, but we feel sorry for the disappointment we believe to be in store for the wo:kingmen of Montreal East.fHE MONTREAL HERALD AND DAILY COMMERCIAL GAZETTE.FRIDAY.SEPTEMBER 28.THE LAW OF LIBEL.Our Quebec contemporaries are not doing their duty to themselves (a the matter of the libel law ef the proviuce.They should take .advantage of the existence of a Liberal Government to secure a liberalising of their law.The amendment of the law in Ontario has not been followed by any lowering of the tone of the press, but the contrary.Our law should be copied in Quebec.\u2014T he Globe.Will the Liberal HERALD tell the Liberal Globe what it thinks the chances of a liberal libel law would be with the Liberal majority of the Liberal Quebec Legislature?Our contemporary is known to hold some liberal views on this matter, begotten of the Libaral treatment of the libel law amendments it ad- voca' ced last spring.\u2014Gazetle.We have no objection to state that we believe the chances are very good.A mistake was made last year by the press in seeking the aid of private members instead of appealing to the Government direct, and we have as little objection to \u2018admit that the bili was not honestly \"dealt with.The libel law of this province appears to have been drawn in the interests of lawyers and ot the disreputable classes who are not unimportant clients of a certain class of lawyers.It should be amended, as the law of Ontario has been amended, and if neces- \u2018gary, the press of both parties should unite to demand that which has been refused to their request.We do not think, however, that this attitude will be necessary.We have confidence in Mr.Mercier\u2019's common sense and sense of justice, and believe that he will consent : to introduce as a Government measure a bill such as is needed.We don\u2019t think this matter should be allowed to sle>p, and Tue HERALD is prepared to do its part in attending to the interests of its professional brethren.We do not believe in lying down to be, kicked and we think that proper precautions should be taken to prevent the bill being emasculated by the friends of the shyster lawyers who\u2019 live on trumped up libel suits.A COMPARISON.The friends of high taxation, heavy debt, and increasing burdens profess to believe that their nostrums tend to aid the progress of the country, and there is not the least reason for doubting in the case some of them the genuineness of their professions.The sugar \u201c combine,\u201d forexam- ple, think, no doubt, that large fortunes for the sugar barons and progression of the country mean the same thing.Those who are making fortunes rapidly out of the enforced contributions of farmers and workingmen are satisfied that the country is progressing very satisfactorily.The fact that the Tory Government has been able to secure the votes of the majority who went to the polls on Wednesday in Montreal East will no doubt encourage them in the belief that their doctrine is still shared by the majority of Canadians.It is of course impossible to persuade the * Com- binesters\u201d and active partizans of Sir John Macdonald to the contrary\u2014though one rose from the dead they would not believe, but would tell him they had no use for him except during an election\u2014 but men who desire to know the truth of the matter would do well to consider the experience of the two chief Australian Colonies.The Contemporary Review of this month contains an article on the subject by Mr.E.D.Pulsford, which we commend fo the attention of those who are stil lingering on the edge of the belief that men are enriched by being taxed and that it is a good thing to pay two dollars for an article which they might be able to procure for one.We take Mr.Pulsford\u2019s figures.In 1866 the colony of Victoria adopted protection, while the adjoining colony of New South Wales adhered to \u201c tariff for revenue only.\u201d In twenty years the protective colony had increased its 636,982 people to 1,033,052, cr 62 per cent., while the revenue tariff colony\u2019s population of only 431,412 had increased to 1,030,762, or 139 per cent.There was no special boom of New South Wales\u2014rather if anything the boom was on theother side\u2014aud the two colonies are alike in all material respects : population, climate, &c.In the ten years between 1871-81 Mr.Pulsford says that Victoria, the protective colony, lost a number equal to her entire immigration (about 53,000) and about 15,000 of her natural increase, and it was found that the able-bodied men were leaving the protection colony for the other.\u2018While the positive loss to the protactive colony during these ten years was 35,916 of her population, the other colony showed a gain of 32,716 of males between the ages of 25 and 45.In 1871 Victoria was 52,158 ahead of New South Wales, and in 1881 she was 16,494 behind, a change of 68,632.In the ten fiscal years the revenue of Victoria rose 105 per cent.; in New South Wales it rose 275 per cent.: the one rising from £3,079,160 to £6,290,- 361, while the other jumped from only £2,012,079 to £7,584,593.In foreign trade the \u201crevenue tariff\u201d colony passed the protective colony altogether.In three years its imports and exports exceeded the other by £8,090,293 (about forty and a half million dollars), and in shippingit left the protective colony altogether in its wake by about 860,000 tons.The \u201cprotection\u201d apologists might perhaps say that they were content to suffer in trade and population, if only they could beat the other in manufactures, but the experience of the two chief Australian colonies does not help them much even there.In 1586 Victoria had 2,813 manufactories employing 49,297 persons, against New South Wales\u2019 3,612 establishments employing 45,783 persons.Since that time Victoria\u2014the protected colony\u2014has added 510 to her number, while New South Wales, the * revenue tariff\u201d colony, has added 1,256.We will quote a paragraph from Mr.Puls- ford's article, which may be read with advantage by the workingmen of Canada.He says:\u2014 \u201cThere are certain facts in connection with manufactories in New South Wales that ought to be peculiarly gratifying to a Demo- craticcommunity.It is the laudable ambi- tionof workmen to b:coime masters and have businesses of their own.It will be found by the figures that in New South Wales there areeight masters to every hundred employees, whereas the number is only six in Victoria.In other words, the prospects of a man becoming his own master are one-third, or 33 per cent, greater in the Free Trade than in the Protectionist colony.The reason of this seems obvious; it results from the greater cheapness of plant and machinery, and, of course, also from the greater cheapness of the materials for manufacturing.Will any one assert that in a colony where a man has to pay 25 per cent.more for machinery than it is worth, it is as easy for him to starta factory asin a colony where Free Trade allows every beginner to buy his machinery and plant at the lowest prices at which they are obtainable?The statistics given clearly prove that Protection in Victoria is tending to monopoly.\u201d If we examine in any direction the superior progress of the \u201crevenue tariff\u201d colony is apparent.Take letters and telegrams which are a fair index of the business and see the result :\u2014 LETTERS RECEIVED AND POSTED.Increase 1866.1885.p.c.Victoria.\u2026 .8,631,152 36,061,880 318 New

property is taken as a guide.We find that in Victoria it is only £116,283,570 against £197,028,429 in New South Wales.One more extract from Mr.Pulsford will be sufficient for the present.He says :\u2014 \u201cTo sum up, the Protection Colony is behind in growth of population; behind in wealth; behind in revenue; behind in imports and exports; behind in shipping; behind in the number of manufactories ; behind in horse-power of machinery ; behind in value of plant-and machinery: behind in number of letters, telegrams and newspapers conveyed through the post; behind in wages; behind in consumption ofluxuries ; has more insolvencies and a greater pressure of taxation, and, finally, nearly the whole body of Victorian manufacturers are dissatisfied with their personal position, and are eagerly looking for an increase in the amount of the Protective duties.\u201d And as it is in Australia so it is in the United States., The intelligent friends of the workingmen and farmers are against high duties, and Mr.Powderly has declared that the poorest wages are in the highest protected industries._\u2014 Ir we MAY Junge by the extremely hilarious, though somewhat mixed and illogical remarks of the morning Tory organ of this city, there must have been something more than money flowing in the Conservative camp on Wednesday evening.We understand that amongst the aristocracy a good deal of champagne was going, while the workingmen and what Cabinet Tory members call \u201cthe lower orders \u201d generally were regaled on forty rod whiskey.On this occasion and as the play-bills say, for this night only, Mr.Lepine and his immediate backers were allowed to bask in the smiles of the \u201cupper succles\u201d of the party.a MONTREAL \u201c GAZETTE: Mercier Government organs warn those who have invested their money in commercial enterprises to \u201csee that commercial taxes are paid this \u201c week, as otherwise legal costs and interest \u201cfrom lst September, 1888, will be collected \u201c by legal process.\u201d Step up, gentlemen, and pay the highwayman.Then we are to understand that when the late Tory Government of Quebec passed the bill to tax commercial corporations, and carried it to the last court of resort, they were acting the part of \u201chighwaymen.\u201d Rather rough on the Government which so liberally subsidized the Gazette in by-gone days.Perhaps they only intended to collect the tax from Liberals.SQUIBS.\u2014 Cn \u2014 Silence is never more golden than when the silent partner has a boodie.\u2014NSon\u2014T say, dad, what does it

five miles.There 18 no one living very near that vicinity, When the lifesaving crew arrived on the scene there were six men and one lady passenger who had been lashed in \u2018the rig- \u2018ging for four hours.The vessel proved to be schooner Abbie P.Cranmer, of and from Balamore for Portsmouth, coal-laden.She was some distance from the shore.Every Sea was sweeping over her, washing her bulwarks, rail and making a complete wreck of her.The life-saving crew made several attempts to fire the line over the vessel, but failed after using all their charges.A volunteer crew, consisting of Captain Frank E.Brown, J.E.Griffin, A.G.Davis, Frank D.Parsons, Charles Griftin, Wm.Ingersoll, Herbert Parsons, George Stanwood and Arthur Rowe, started to Annisquam after the lifeboat.When they returned an attempt was made to rescue the ship: wrecked mariners.Captain Brown was thrown oveboard by the sea.On the second attempt they succeeded in safely landing the lady, who stood the hardships with great bravery.Subsequently the crew were landed and kindly cared for at Trumball's cafe.The Cranmer was anchored in Ipswich Bay when the storm came up.She dragged anchors and went ashore.She was built in 1867, measured 305 tons, was owned by Thomas C.Cranmer of Baltimore and commanded by Captain Norman Merry.She will probably prove a total loss.The other schooner being light was driven high up on the beach, where the crew landed without any trouble.She was schooner I.W.Hine, Captain Saunders, four men and one passenger, from New- buryport for the coast of Maine.She is owned at New Haven by F.W.Benedict, was built in 1862 and measures 126 tons.She was not much damaged.\"There are 10 reports of disasters on the southern side of the Cane.From Bass Rocks, about half a mile from shore, a vessel's spars with rigging apparent!y attached could be geen this afternoon.MIXING DRINKS.How Alcohol for Use in the Arts is to be Distinguished.Wasiixarox, Sept.27.-The Senate tariff biti pian for distinguishing aicohol to be used in the arts from that used fr making wiskey is a queer one.To prevent fraud the committee propose to require alcohol which is to escape taxation to be methyllated\u2014that is, treated chemically so as to make it entirely unfit for use as a beverage.In addition to this the provisions of the bill as to warehousing are very stringent, specifying the number of doors permissible, the manner of withdrawing the alcohol and so on.There is no means of determining exactly the amouat of alcohol used in the arts which would be exempt from taxation under the bill.The estimate varies from $10,000,000 in value to $18,- 000,000.Much of the alcohol produced by the alcohol trust is used in strengthening wines.This cannot be methyllated, and will therefore remain subject to taxation under the committee bill.WEATHER REPORT.MONTREAL, Sept.27, Temperature in the shade by Standard Thermometer, observed by Hearn & Harrison, opticians and mathematical instrument makers, 1640 and 1642 Notre Dame street: \u20148 a.m., 53°;

Committee.\u2014-\u2014 > \u2014\u2014 Now for a \u2018\u2018Free Chaw.\u201d But thes Overcoat and Blanket Must Still Pay Tribute.Tobacco, Alcohol and Sugar.WAsHINGTON, Sept.27.\u2014The Republican Tariff Bill was laid before the Finance Committee of the Senate on Tuesday.It was not formally made public, but its essential features soon became generally known.It is practically a tobacco and sugar bill, with only changes of detail in the tariff schedules.These seem to have been readjusted, with a view of giving the protected monopolies just what they bave asked for.The Republican Senators are not even yet agreed upon every feature of the bill, and there are several important provi sions hanging in the air.There were present in the committee room this morning Senators Sherman, Allison, Aldrich, Hiscock and Jones, of Nevada, Republicans, and Senators Harris and Vance, Democrats.The absentees were Senators Morrill, Beck, Mec- Pherson and Voorhees.CROWDING TIE DEMOCRATS.senator Allison, the Chairman of the Tariff Snb-committee, laid the bill before the committee, and a copy was given to each member.There was some discussion as to making the matter public.Senator Harris proposed that the bill be repdrted to the Senate without the reports of either side and made public at once.This was voted down.The Republicans say privately that they will not give the Democratic members of the committee much time.In other words, having spent more than four months in preparing a bill and fortitying it by a report, they will allow their opponents just 8ix days to analyze and criticize the bill and will allow them no opportunity at all to criticize the report.Senator Harris is acting as the leader of the Democrats in the absence of Senator Beck.He has been in correspondence with the Kentucky Senator for some time past, and the two have collected considerable data in support of the Mills bill, but could of course do nothing by way of criticism of the provisions of the, Senate bill, because they knew nothing of them.Senator Beck was unable todo anything on the report, but last week he sent up word that if a stenographer were sentlo his resting place at Fortress Monroe he would dictate some matter to him.The stenographer went, and a copy of the bill wasjto-day despatched to the Senator bv special messenger.Senator Beck is expected in town Thursday evening, when he will be able fo consult with his democratic colleagues.VERY SECRET.After these matters had been arranged in committee this morning, the reading of the bill began, but it had got no further than the first of the tariff schedules when twelve o'clock arrived and the committee was compelled by the rules to adjourn.Senator Harris wrote his name on his copy of the bill and handed it to Mr.Durfee, the clerk, with the request that he keep it locked up for him.The other Senators handed their copies also to Mr.Lurtee, with the idea that in this way they would keep any knowledge of the bill from getting to the pso- ple.The Herald, however, will take care of that.The bill is calculated to mate a redur- tion in the revenue of about $70,000,000.This is practically taken off three ar- ticles\u2014tobacco, sugar and \"alcohol used in the arts.\u201d The additions to the free list in the Senate bill are few, and the amount of revenue reduction gained thereby relatively trifling.COMPARISONS, A comparison with the Mills bill gives the following result :\u2014 Senate Bill, Mills Bill.Reduction.Reduction.Tobacco.$30,000,000 Tobacco.$17,387,161 sugar.25,000,000 Sugar.10,937,174 Freelist.5,400,000 Free list.19,773,599 Alcohol .10,600,000 Alcohol.\u2014 The reductions in the tariff schedules of the Senate bill ontside of sugar amount to a little more than a readjustment, and some of them will increase receipts instead of decreasing them.AGAINST THE POOR MAN.Tr Senate Committee have followed the principie of making duties specific instead of ad valorem where possible.The advantage which Senator Aldrich will urge in his report for the specific system is that it offers less opportunity for undervaluation frauds than the ad valorem system.Customs oflticers are apt to prefer the specific plan because of its greater simplicity of operation.The ad valorem system was adopted, as far as practicable, in the Mulls bill with a view of imposing no heavier duties relatively on the cheap fabrics of the poor than on the costlier ones of tha rich.Each was to pay the same proportion of their value, while under the specific system, with the same duty per vard for costly materials and cheapones, the poor man pays an enormously greater proportion in taxes than the rich man.TO PLEASE THE MONOPQLISTS.The Senate scheme seems to bear out pretty well the promise made by Senator Allison more than two months ago that it would be similar in no respect to the Mills bill.Even the administrative features are different.The Mills bill carried the administrative provisions of the measure drawn by Mr.Abram S.Hewitt while in Congress, and the Senate bill incorporates bodily the undervaluation act which passed the Senate early in the winter.The Senate bill, moreover, is a complete re-enactment of the tariff schedules, and covers 260 pages, while the Mills bill merely refers to those parts of the tariff of 1883 which it is*proposed to change.; The republican Senators believe they have so drawn their measure as not to drive away the support of any protected nterest, and they feel particularly well + atisfied with the gentle way in which \u2018hey have handled the industries of the Yacific slope.Wool is given more protection than ever; lumber, fruit and nut are left at the old rates and borax is pn at a higher duty than underexisting law TOBACCO AND SPIRITS.Taking up the provisions of the bill in order, it proposed, as printed, to.abolish the entire tax on tobacco, cigars and cigarettes.The republicans are wavering a little, however, on this because the cigar-makers are so strenuous for a light One tax in crder to retain their brands.THE MONTREAL HERALD AND DAILY COMMERCIAL GAZE of the last hearings given was to a representative of the Cigarmakers\u2019 Union, who protested against the abolition of this tax.So a nominal tax bringing in $1,000,000 or $2,000,000 of revenue may be retained.The tax on alcohol used in the arts is to be abolished, but under \u201cregulations which are trusted to guard against fraud.\u201d The tax on retail liquor dealers, however, which yielded $4,587,268 in 1587, is not touched, so that dealers in paints and oils are not given the relief provided by the Mills bill.The abolition of the tax on fruit brandy is supposed to do away with $1,500,000 of revenue.A LATTERED FREE LIST.The tree list has suffered many vicissitudes.It was originally intended to lace on it a large number of chemicals, Pat the manufacturers protested so violently that many of them had to be restored to the dutiable list.The list as finally made up consists principally of drugs and chemicals, but contains also jute, Maniula and Sisal grass.It does not contain lumber, soap, salt, wool, cotton bagging, nor borax, all of which appear on the free list of the Mills bill.The pottery manufacturers have got all they want.The schedule is rasad- justed, with a slight increase on every item where it has been thought necessary.The Mills Bill made a cut of 20 per cent.Some of the Democrats thought this was too much, but believed the product could stand 5 per cent.reduction.Plate glass is practically unchanged.The Mills Bill put German mirror plates on the {ree list, because they are not made in this country, but some of the plate glass manufacturers thought they might Le made some time if the present duty were retained, and their wishes were deferred to by the Senators.It is an unborn industry which the tariff is expected to fecundate.METALS UNCHANGED.The metal schedules have been sim- plyfied by unifying the duties on steel and iron.Steel rails will be put at $15 or $14 per ton, the committee has not decided which.They are at $11 in the Mills bill, and the minority of the Committee on Ways and Means declares that the rate insures handing over the market to our English rivals.Lead ore is left in the Senate bill at the existing rate, but in order to prevent fraud, silver ore, now on the free list, is made dutiable at the same rate.The only change in wire rods is the guage\u2014from 6 to 5.Tin plates remain dutiable at the old rate.Quicksilver is fixed at six cents per pound, 1n- stead of ten per cent ad valorem.In the Mills bill 1t is put on the free list, but vigorous protests against this action have come to the Senate Committee from the operators of the mines.LUMBER STILL TAXED.There is no change made in the lumber schedule by the Senate bill.The cut in sugar is about fifty per cent., but the precise form of the schedule has not yet been fixed and further hearings are to be given.As printed, no radical change is made in classification, but the consumer is given the benefit of one-fourth of a cent a pound over the refiner.The aim, Senators say, has not been to drive refiners out of the business, but to break up the trusts which the sugar monopolists have farmed.Under the head of provisions, rice is reduced fifty per cent.The Republicans are proud cf thiscut, because they claim that the reductions of a quarter of a cent per pound on cleaned and uncleaned rice in the Mills bill amount by a change of classification to a practical increase of duty.There are few other changes in the provision schedule.Raising, prunes and nuts are left at the existing rate of duty, against a reduction in the Mills bill of half a cent on raisins.The suggestion of putting high duties on grain to bring the farmer within the high tariff circle was not carried out.show practically no change.The farmers do not get the free cotton bagging for which they have been petitioning, but there is a considerable reduction on it and jute goes on the free list.Flax i3 safe, however, from ruthless cuts.ON RELIEF.The duty on clothing wools of the fine grades\u2014that is, above thirty cents p> pound\u2014is increased from twelve to thirteen cents.This is the only change made in raw wool.The growers wanted the duties of 1867, fixing a charge of ten rer cent ad valorem in addition to the twelve cents per pound, but the com mittee preferred to adhere to the specific system.The woollen schedule is pretty thoroughly overhauled.Worsted are ©> be classed as woollens in future to prevent the undervaluation under the worsted clause of the act of 1883, which has done so much damage since the decision of Secretary Folger.There are some increases of duty on woollens which may Lelp to keep the manufacturers in line for Harrison and Morton.They do not amount, however, to a restoration of the duties of 1867, which the manufacturers asked.There is no change in the silk schedule.The paper schedule is readjusted to conform to the modern classification, but there is no essential change in duties.The change in classification prevents the bringing of paper suitable for writing at a lower rate than was intended in the tariff of 1888.Mother of pearl is one of the articles put on the free list to assist the manufacturers of pearl buttons.Coal, salt and marble are untouched.ART IN THE BALANCE.It was hoped that the Senate would be above the cheapdemagougery which prevailed by a narrow majority in the caucus of the House Democrats and would put works of art on the free list.They pay less than £600,000 per year, and reputable artists do not ask for protection of this kind.The Senate Committee, however, has not decided to wipe out the thirty per cent.duty.It may do so, but it is hardly probable.SOME DETAILS, Among the details of the bill are the following :\u2014Flaxseed, linseed and cottonseed oil are placed on the free list, Boracic acid is left at 5 cents a pound.Glue is slightly increased.China, porcelain and bisque are increased from 60 to 65 per cent.Bottles are carefully classified as to size, so that none but those which cannot be used again can come in free.Porcelain and Bohemian glass, stained glass and other manufactures are increased from 45 to 50 per cent.Iron ! and steel cotton ties are left dutiable at the same rate as in the existing law.Copper is reduced one cent per pound on each grade.There is an increase in some grades of cutlery in order to keep out ! some of the cheap German manufacture.Type for printing is put at fifteen per cent., as in the Mills bill Fresh fish are still admitted .free, but a provision is added to prevent the introdaction fres of duty of fish which have been subject to

Consignment of Girls for Utah Held at Castle Garden.The Mormons Detained.(New York Telegram) A pathetic scene moistened many an eye in Castle Garden Tuesday morning.Under the thick stone archway of that grim old fort stood agroup of young girls weeping by turns, with a Mormon missionary in their midst, trying to comfort them with kisses and fatherly embraces.The poor creatures had come over from Europe with 120 other Mormon immigrants on the Guion steamer Wisconsin.ALL BOUND FOR UTAIL They were all bound for the Mormon settlements of Utah, A majority of the immigrants brought over by the Mormon missionary were families just about able to support themselves, and so were allowed to continue on their journey westward.But the fair-haired Swedish girls\u2014some of them without fathers or mothers or any kindred in the wide world to protect them\u2014were detained by the Emigration Commissioners that testimony might be taken and sent to Collector Magone.AN INVESTIGATION GOING ON.The law is strict in regard to importing paupers into this country, and if it is found that these innocent girls have been brought over here because they are helpless and unable to take care of themselves, they will undoubtedly be returned to be looked after by the authorities of their native land.Brother Henry Welsh is the Mormon missionary who accompanied them.Ie was assisted in bis peculiar duties by another brother, named Brother G.W.Phillips, of Salt Lake City, who has been distributing the Mormon gospel and its blighting influences over Europe.The girls detained were three boys and four girls, all under sixteen years old and unaccompanied by parents or guardians.SHE WANTED TO BE A MORMON.A woman by the name of Hermania Van Lieben, from Holland, had three children under her wing and said she was going to her relatives in Idaho.She had a fourteen-year-old girl with her\u2014 Maria Dexter\u2014who said she wanted to be a Mormon, Nellie Tomlinson, a pretty little orphan from Brompton, England, was accompanied by her alleged adopted father.She said she didn\u2019t know where she was going.France Heizner, a twelve- year-old lad from Berlin, said that his father and mother were separated and not getting on very well at home, his mother allowed him to go with the Mar- mons.IT WAS A MOTLEY CREW, Taken all in all it was a motley crew, and for the most part the old people were unusually stupid and almost ignorant enough to become\u201d useful voters in an American campaign.While the reporter was at the Garden an examination was going on in one of the rooms below and testimony being taken for Collector Ma- gone.KISSED BY THE MORMON.As the young \u2018pzople stood under the archway of the Garden, as stated at the beginning of this report, Brother Welsh stooped over and kissed the fairest of all the girls and put his arms around her neck as if he was her own blooded father.and she in turn clasped his gray and grizzly throat as if he were a saint, while ghe wept most piteously.The gray haired missionary who was supplying the altars of Salt Lake with orphan girls from Europe was the only ir'end she knew on this side of the globe.He said to her:\u2014\u201c Never mind, my child, don\u2019t cry, we shall soon be off.This afternoon we shall go to our homa in the West, where we will kindly care for you and there will be nothing more to trouble you.Cheer up and we will be on the train in a few hours.\u201d WITAT THHE ELDER SAID, In conversation with a Telegram reporter, the elder said that he did not consider the girls paupers.* It is true,\u201d he said, ¥ that this girl is an orphan, but the other, standing over there, has a father who has left his home, and her mother gave her permission to come with us and live in Salt Lake.Another of the girls has a mother, it ig true, but she is insane and in an asylum.\u201d The gray-haired prophet of Sait Lake polygamy went on to say that he considered he was doing the poor peopie a great kindness in rescuing them from a life of hardship and poverty.They would find good homes in Salt Lake, with plenty of work and a comparatively easy life.The children would be educated and carefully looked after by the Church and its missionaries.In Europe most of them had no home worth talking about.THR IRISH NOT MORMONS, Missionary Welsh is not an American nor a Salt Lake Gospel granger, but a Welshman, and Chief Detective Pete Grodan, who was givinz the reporter his pedigree, said that a man might think that he was an Irishman from the way his name was pronounced, but he, the detective, was proud to say that the Irish did not take to more than one wife at a time.It was all they could do to attend to that one, and in all his twenty years\u2019 experience at Castle Garden he had never known but one Irish Mormon.AN AMERICAN CITIZEN HE IS, Missionary Welsh went on to say that be had spent many years of his life in this country, and that he considered himself a full-fledged American citizen, and be had the rights of an American citizen, which he intended to maintain under the law.It was easy to see that the aged disciple of fifteen wives, with not a clean collar in the house, was considerably stirred up over the unexpected legal juxtaposition in which his pretty blonde maidens were suddenly placed by the Commissioners.With deep feeling he explained his position, plead and entreated for fair play for the poor, abandoned orphans; tried to make everybody believe that he or she would be treated like poor, lost lambs brought in from the storms by the shepherd when oace in the smiling valieys of Utah.There the converts would find a tranquii home, with sparkling rivers and snowy mountains to cheer tueir weary eyes.Thera they would find the land literally flowing with milk and honey, both spiritual and in the comb.Hesaid nothing, however, about the commercial beehive out there\u2014that big Mormon store whera every man is mortgaged up to his eyes for groceries, free grace and polygamous calico.THEY'LL KNOW MORE LATER.From conversation held by the reporter witli the simple hearted foreigners, it waseasy to see that they had no idea of the true inwardness of Mormonism onthe American plan.The principal thing they talked about was the beautiful country to which they expected to go, where they would have plenty to eat and plenty to wear, with no European drill sergeants to drag their sons into the army.All the girls seemed to take kindly to the old missionary, who was as sanctimonious as the spiritual adviser of a Turkish harem.Goodness and the thirty.second chapter of lLeviticus seemed to beam from his eyes.AN IMBECILE CHILD DISCOVERED.One of the emigration officials said that there was an imbecile child among the lot, and he considered them about the most stupid Mormons he had seen in years.The general opinion expresded at the Garden was that the girl would be detained and sent back on the ground of baving been brought here in violation of the law.- THE SLAVE TRADE IN AFRICA.Appalling Devastation in the Central Portion of the Dark Continent.The destruction wrought in Central Africe by Arab slave stealers within the past five or six years is appalling, says the New York Sun.In regions where Livingstone, Stanley and Cameron saw large populations no human inhabitants can now be found.Most of them have keen captured or slaughtered, and rem- rants of tribes have escaped into other districts.These regions are included between 22 degrees and 32 degrees east longitude and between J degrees and 12 degrees south latitude, and embrace un area of nearly 100,000 square miles.Among the most entertaining writings of Livingstone and Stanley are their descriptions of the beautiful land of the Manyema, west of lake Tanganyika, and its unique inhabitants, and all these, as Gleerup now reports, have completely disappeared except the gangs of Many- emn slaves who work the Arab plantations along the caravan route.The path of Arab devastation extends straight west from Lake Tanganyika, past Nyangwe to the Upper Sankuru five hundred miles, and for a breadth of seventy-five miles hardly a native has been left to tell of the awful invasion.It was in the western part of this district that Lieut.Wissmann in 1882 visited a Bene Ki town, whose single street extended fcr ten miles, whose huts were twenty feet high and surrounded by neat court-yards, whose men toiled in the fields behind the houses, while all the inhabitants bade the stranger welcome, and about five thousand of them visited his camp that evening.Two years ago Wissmenn passed again through that place.There was nothing left of the bappy homesteads.In the tall grass that choked the long street were found many charred poles and bleached skulls.The hordes of Tippu Tib within six months had paid three murderous visits to this large settlement.Many women were carried off, all who offered resistance were killed, and the fields, gardens, and banana groves were laid waste.Smallpox, introduced by the Arabs, and famine completed the tragedy.The powerful trite ot Bene Ki had ceased to exist, and ouly a few individuals had escaped south to Zappu Zapp, a chief who was himself a refugee from Arab aggression.Along three hundred miles of the Con- the Arabs, according to Geerup and Lenz, have depopulated about fifteen thousand square miles of territory.The numerous tribes whom Stan.ey first saw have become slaves or in greatly depleted numbers wander through the forests far from the river.About two thousand square miles of the rolling prairies west of Tippu Tib\u2019s home at Kasongo have been utterly drained of their people.About twenty thousand square miles on the western headwaters of the Congo are no longer a profitable field for slave-hunting.In the very region where Livingstone died, and where lis heart was buried, extanding southeast from Lake Banweolo and embracing about fifteen thousand square miles, the Arabs, we are told by Giraud, lave completely ravaged the country.And from all these centres of devastation the paths of the destroyers leading to slave marts and shipping points may be traced by the bones of the victims who fall by the way.It can not be possible that the civilized world will much longer permit this colossal crime of the century to add its murderous results without taking earnest measures to put a stop to it._ WORKING GIRL\u2019S HOME.The Working Giris\u2019 Home is a branch of the Y.W.C.A.that has been established for some years, and has quietly done a good work.This years it has moved into larger quarters at 75 Drum- mond street, and the workers in the branch hope it may do proportionately greater good.The Home has continued its work through the holidays, and has proved a benefit to many.Its object is to provide a safe home for respectable girls out of place.None are admitted without satisfactory references.During the summer several permanent boarders have been admitted.It is the object of the committee to make the house a pleasant placa for the inmates.In this they are much ham- perea by the want of necessary furniture, especially beds, bedding, tables and bureaus.Donations of these will be gratefully acknowledged.Highly Valued, \u201cLast summer our children were very bad with summer complaint and the only remedy that did them any good was Dr.Fowler's Extract of Wild Strawberry.We used 12 bottles during the warm weather and would not be without it as five times the cost, considering it to have no superior for diarrhea.\u201d Mrs, Jas.Healey, New

at me; than she came on withoutsaving à word ; without any change in the stony stillness of her face ; without any noise following Ler football\u2014came on the side of the bed where 1 now lay.Getting near me, she lifted the knife again, and I drew myself away to the left side.She struck as before right into the mattress, with a swift downward action of her arm ; and she missed me, as efore, by a hair's breadth.That time ! My eyes wandered from her to the knife.lt was like the large clasp knives which laboring men use to cut their bread and acon with, Her delicate little fingers did not hide more than two-thirds of the handle; I noticed that it was made of buckhorn, clean and shining as the blade Was, and looking like new.or the second time she drew the knife ut of the bed, and suddenly hid it away Inthe wide sleeve of her gown.This done, she stopped by the bedside watch- Ingme.For an instant I saw her stand- Ing in that position\u2014then the wick of the Stent candle fell over into the socket.¢ flame dwindled to a little blue point, nd the room grew dark.À moment, or less, if possible, passed S\u2014snd then the wick flared up, | Smokily, for the last time.My eyes Were 8ull looking for her over the righi- ! aud side of the bed, when the last flash of light came.Look as I might, I could see nothing.The woman with the knife Was gone.I began to get buck to myself again.I could feel my heart beating ; I could hear the woful moaning of the wind in the wood ; 1 could leap up in bed and give the alarm before she escaped from the house.\u201c Murder ! Wake up there ! Murer \u201d Nobody answered to the alarm.I rose and groped my way through the darkness to the door of the room.By that way she must have got in.By that way she must have gone out.I The door of the room was fast locked, exactly as I had left it on going to bed! I looked at the window.Fast locked too.Hearing a voice outside, I opened the door.There was the landiord, coming toward me along the passage, with his burning candie in one hand, and his gun in the other.\u201c What is it ?\u201d he says, looking at me in no very friendly way.I could only answer in a whisper, \u201c A woman, with a knife in her hand.In my room.A fair, yellow-haired Woman.She jabbed at me with the knife, twice over.\u201d He lifted his candle and looked at me steadily from head to foot.\u201cShe seemed to have missed you\u2014twice over.\u201d \u201c1 dodged the knife as it came down.It struck the bed each time.Goin, and see.\u2019 The landlord took his candle into the bedroom immediately.In less than a minute he came out again into the passage in a violent passion.* The devil fly away with you and your ! woman with the knife! \u2018Chere isn\u2019t a mark in the bed clothes anywhere.What do vou mean by coming into a man\u2019s place and frightening his family out of their wits by a dream \u2018\u201d \u2019 A dream?The woman who had tried tostab me, not a living human being like myself?I began to shake and shiver.The horrors got hold of me at the bare thought of it.\u201cI'll leave the house,\u201d I said.\u201c Better be out on the road in the rain and dark, then back in that room, after what I've seen in it.Lend me the light to get my clothes by, and tell me what I'm to pay.The landlord led the way back with his light into the bedroom.\u201c Pay ?\u201d says he.\u201cYou'll find your score on the slate when you go down stairs.I wouldn't have taken you in for all the money you've got about you, if I had known your dreaming, screeching ways beforehand.Look at the bed\u2014where\u2019s the cut of a knife in it?Look at the window\u2014 is the lock bursted ?Look at the door (which I heard you fasten yourself)\u2014is 1t broke in?A murdering woman with a knife in my house! You ought to be ashamed of yourself!\u201d My eyes followed his hand as it pointed first to the bed\u2014then to the win- dow\u2014then to the door.There was no gainsaying it.The bed sheet was as sourd as on the day it was made.The window was fast.The door hung on its hinges as steady as ever.I huddled my clothes on without speaking.We went down stairs together.I looked at the cleck in the bar-room.The time was twenty minutes past two in the morning, I paid my bill, and the landlord let me out.The rain had ceased ; but the night was dark, and the wind was bleaker than ever.Little did the darkness, or the cold, or the doubt about the way home matter to me.My mind was away from these things.My mind was fixed on the vision in the bedroom.What had I seen trying to murder me?The creature of à dream?Or that other creature from the world beyond the grave, whom men call ghost?I could make nothing of it as I walked along in the night; I had made nothing of it by midday\u2014 when I stood at last, after many times missing my road, on the doorstep of home.VL My mother came out alone to welcome me back.There were no secrets between us two.I told her all that had happened, just as T have told it to you.She kept silence till I had done.And then she put a question to me.\u201c What time was it, Francis, when you saw the Woman in your Dream I had looked at the clock when I left the inn, and I had noticed that the hands pointed to twenty minutes past two.Allowing for the time consumed in speaking to the landlord and in getting on my clothes, I answered that I must have first ssen the woman at two o'clock in the morning.In other words, I had not only seen her on my birthday, but at the hour of my birth.Ty mother still kept silence.Lost in her own thoughts, she took me by the hand and led me into the parlour.Her writing-desk was on the table by the fire-place.She opened it and signed to Le to take a chair by her side.\u201c My son ! vour memory is a bad one, and mine is fast failing me.Tell me again what the woman locked like.I want ber to be as well known to both of us years hence as she is now.\u201d I oveyed, wondering wbat strange fancy might be working in her mind.I spoke ; and she wrote the words as they fell from her lips : \u201c Light gray eyes, with a droop in the left eye-lid.Flaxen hair, with a golden- yellow streak in it.White arms, with a down upon them.Little, lady\u2019s hands, with a rosy-red look about the fingernails.\u201d \u201cDid you notice that she was dressed, Francis?\u201d \u201c No mother.\u201d \u201cDid you notice the knife?\u201d \u201cYes.A large clasg-knife, with a buck- hcrn handle, as good as new.\u201d My mother added the description of the knife.Also the year, month, day ot the week, and hour of the day when the Dream-Woman appeared to me at the inn.That done, she locked up the paper in her desk.\u201c Not a word, Francis, to youraunt.Not a word to any living soul.Keep your Dream a secret between you and me.\u201d The weeks passed, and the months passed.My mother never returned to the subject again.As for me, time, which wears out all things, wore out my remembrance of the Dream.Little by little, the image of the Woman grew dimmer and dimmer.Little by little, she faded out of my mind.VII The story of the warning is row told.: Judge for yourself if it was a true warning or a false, when you hear what happened to me cn my next birthday.In the summer time of the year, the Wheel of Fortune turned the right way for me at last.I was smoking my pipe one day, near an old stone-quarry at the entrance to our village, when a carriage accident happened, which gave a new turn as it were, to my lot in life.It was an accident of the commonest kind\u2014not worth mentioning at any length.Alady driving herself; a rua- away horse; a cowardly man-servant in attendance, frightened out of his wits; and the stone-quarry too near to be agreeable\u2014that is what I saw, all in a few moments, between two whiffs of my pipe.I stopped the horse at the edge of 1he quarry, and got myself a little hurt by the shaft of the chaise.But that | the New ; didn't matter.Tue lady declared I had saved her life : ing With her to our cottage the | next day, took me into his service then and there.The lady | happened to be of a dark complexion; and it may amuse you to hear that my aunt Chance instantly pitched on that circumstance as a means of saving the credit of the cards.Here was the pro- promise of tie Queen ,of Spades performed to the very letter, by means of \u201ca dark woman,\u201d just as my aunthad told me, \u201c Inthe time to come, Francis, beware o\u2019 pettin\u2019 yer ain blinded intairpre- tation on the cairds.Ye're ower ready, I trow, to murniur under dispensation of Providence that ye canna fathom\u2014like the Eesraelites of auld.I\u2019ll say mair ta ye.Mebbe when the mony\u2019s powering into yer poakets, ye'll no forget yer aunt ! Chance, lett like a sparrow on the house- ! top, wi\u2019 2 sma\u2019 annuitee o\u2019 thratty punds a year.\u201d I remained in my situation (at the West end of London) until the spring of Year.About that time, my master's health failed.The doctors ordered him away to foreign parts, and the establishment was broken up.Iut the turnin my luck still held good.When I left my place, Ileft it\u2014thanks to the genercsity of my kind master\u2014with a yearly allowance granted to me, in re- memberance of the day when I had saved my mistress's life.For the future I could go back to service or not, as I pleased; my little income was enough to support my mother and myself, My master and mistress left England towards the end of February.Certain matters of business to do for them detained me in Loncon until the last day of the month.I was only able to leave fer our village by the evening train, to keep my birthday with my mother as usual.It was bedtime when I got tothe cottage; und I was sorry to find that she was jar from well.To make matters worse, she bad finished her bottle of medicine on the previous day, and had omitted to get it replenished, as the doctor bad strictly directed.He dispensed his own medicines, and I offered to go and knock him up.She refused to let me do this; and, after giving me my supper, sent me away to my bed.I fell asleep for a little, and woke again.My mother\u2019s bed-chamber was next to mine.I heard my aunt Chance\u2019s heavy footsteps going to and from the room, and, suspecting something wrong, knocked at the door.My mother\u2019s pains had returned upon her ; there was a serious necessity for relieving her sufferings as speedily as possible.I put on my clothes, and ran off, with the medicine- bottle in my hand, to the other end of the village, where the doctor lived.The church clock chimed the quarter to two on my birthday just as I reached the house, One ring of the night-bell brought Lim to his bedroom window to speak to me.He told me to wait, and he would let me in at the surgery door.I noticed, while I was waiting, that the night was wonderfully fair and warm for the time of the year.The old stone- quarry where the carriage accident had happened and within view.The moon in the clear heavens lit it up almost as bright as day.In a minute or two, the doctor let me into the surgery.I closed the door, noticing that he had left his room very lightly clad.He kindly pardoned my mother\u2019s neglect of his directions, and set to work at once at compounding the medicine.We were both intent on the bottle ; he filling it, and I holding the light\u2014when we heard the surgery door suddenly open from the street.[TO BE CONTINUED.) J IS DEATH PREVENTABLE?Why should men, women and children die of disease at all?There is no provision for death in early life except by accident, ignorance of the laws of health and neglect of duty toward our neighbour on the part of somebody.« « Why dosome die, and som: recover 7 Why should disease be fatal at all ?Tatality is connected to some extent with the surroundings to which the patient has lived before he became affected, and is living at the time at which the disease commences in a given district.If there bas been a large number of {atal cases of inflammation of the lungs, you may be certain that the air of that district is not so pure as it ought to be, and the habits of the inhabitants are not so prudent as they might be.No man dies of inflammation of the lungs in middle life, or indeed of any acute disease, be it what it may, if he has lived healihily both as to habits and character of surroundings.If a district bas a death rate of twenty-four in the 1,000, it has double what it ought to be.The half of the deaths which take place might have been prevented if the people would only obey the laws of health, keep their houses and their persons clean, dispose of their excreta in a proper way, and be temperate in their habits of living, and at the same time do their duty to their neighbour by avoiding the sophistication of articles of diet, or the mischief of adalt- eration.\u2014 Dr.Alfred Carpenter, HOW'S YOUR LIVER?The old lady whoreplied, when asked how her liver was, \u201cGod bless me, I never beard that there was such a thing in the house,\u201d was noted for her amiability.Prometheus, when chained to a rock, might as well have pretended to be happy, as the man who is chained to a diseased liver.For poor Prometheus, there was no escape, but by the use of Dr.Pierce\u2019s Pleasant Purgative Pellets tbe disagreeable feelings, irritable temper, constipation, indiges:iop, dizziness and sick beadache, which are caused by a diseased liver, promptly disappear.COULDR\u2019T GET AWAY WITH MUCH.\u201cUnited States Sub-treasurer Sutton, suppose a thief should get into your big vault some night ?\u201d \u201cNo thief can get in there.\u201d \u201c But suppose be could ?\u201d \u201cIt is impossible.\u201d \u201c But say that some clever fellow did get in, how much could he carry away in gold?\u2019 \u201c Not more than $25,000.We put that much in double eagles in asingle bag, the weight of which is 100 pounds.That is a good deal of weight in a mighty small bundle, making it hard to carry.A thief would have hard work to run with one of those bags, and he couldn\u2019t manage to lug two to save his life.You have no idea how hard it is to carry a 100 pound bag of gold.The weight is so concentrated, But, afterall, no thief can get in there.The gafes are absolutely proof against burglars.'\u2014St.Paul Globe.MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCE ot Mr.Dyspepsia.It is said he was driven and is kept away by the use of Im- erial Cream 'lartar Baking Powder.Sold by all Grocers.and her husband, com- Children Crv for Pitc her s Castoria.| THE INK OF ALL AGES.po cess of Manufacture.Many Ancient Parchments in Existence On Which the Ink Seems as Fresh as When First Applied\u2014The Mauuface ture Improving\u2014Sympathetie Write ing Fluids and Printers\u2019 Inks.What is mest desirable in inks is brik liancy of colour with durability ; and especially is this the case in keeping re« cords which should resist the action of the envious and corroding finger of time.There are many ancient parchments in existence on which the ink is as fresh as wken first applied, though century upon century has passed away.\u2018the ink made use of by the ancients, it must be allowed, however, hud nothing in common with that in use at the present day but the colour and the gum.Soot, lamp black, or ivory black was the chief ingredient in the ink of the ancients, whereas gall nuts, copperas and gum make up the component parts of ours, And if any reader should be desirous of making an ink for themselves, here is a receipt at their disposal without money and without price.Aleppo galls, finely bruised, six ounces sulphate of iron, four ounces; gum arabic, four ounces; water, six pint.ltoll the galls in the water for about two hours, keeping up the supply, first by evaporation, and at the end of the time add the other ingredients.Pour into a wooden or glass vessel and keep two months, occasionally shaking the mixture and then strain the ink into glass bottles, adding a few drops of creosote, which will prevent moldiness.The gum made use of has the property of preventing the ink being too fluid, while it prevents the vegetable matter from decomposition.The ink should be made of such a delicate thickness as to flow with perfect freedem from the pen, thus allowing rapid writing, and that it should adhere to thè paper, or rather become incorporated with it to a sufficient depth 80 as not to be effaceable by washing or sponging, at tue same time drying rapidly.The ink with which newspapers are printed is in all its essentials the same as the writing inks of the ancients, and is composed of carbon suspended in a drying oil.It is impressed upon the surface of an unsized paper, and retained unchanged by the action of moisture on account of the involubility of the carbon and the natural repulsion between oil and water.Soak this paper in water for a twelve-month if you wiil, and so long as the paper on which it is printed holds together so long will the printed matter remain legible, and so long will the paper continue to delight and instruct the readers.Herein exists the difference between the inks of the ancients and the moderns\u2014that while the former were impressed upon the surface of the parchment, papyrus, or other substance written upon, that of the moderns enters among the fibres of the article it is written on, as colouring fluids do into cloth in the ordinary process of manufacture.Our best modern ink is known by the simple test of darkening with age; but if the paper made use of has been made of inferior rage, bleached with chlorine, the best ink that can be made use of upon it is liable to lose the freshness and brilliancy of its colour.The nut galls which form the basis of our modern ink are excrescences growing upon the leaves of oak trees, caused by the puncture of an insect which deposits its eggs in the puncture thus made.The especial variety of oak on which the galls grow with the greatest abundance are to be found largely in Syria, Mesopc- tamia, Persia and Asia Minor and thence are exported to this country in vast (uantities.The best are the Aleppo galls, while those from Smyrna are held in high repute.The galls contain that astringent vegetable quality known as tannin, in larger quantities than any other known substance, and this quality is resolved into tanniz and gallic acids- From the combination of these two acids with the gul- phate of iron the blackness of ink is derived.The absolute and unchangeable durability of other coloured inks than black is yet to be tested to a certainty.Blue ink flows with ease and rapidity from the pen, and dries almost instantaneously, but its colour is by no means durable, {or under almost all circumstances it will fade, sooner or later.The same, also, may be said of blue inks which turn to Llack some time after writing.They are gocd for ordinary correspondence, bnt for use in records, where the writing must ba of permanent value, they are as yet not absolutely to be depended upon.In deciding upon the authenticity of manuscripts, Mr.Astle says that the colour of ink is of no great assistanc, and Le instaices a long roll of parchment which is in his library at the head of which is a .etter that was carried over the greatest part of England by two devout monks, requesting prayer for Lucia de Vere, countess of Oxfurd a very pious lady who bad established the convent of Flemingham in Essex, and also had done many other acts of exemplary piety, who died in 1199.The roll is made up of many membranes or skins of parchment sewn together, all of which except tbe first contain certificates from the different religious houses that the two monks had visited them, and that they had ordered prayers to be offered up for the countess, and had entered her rame on their bead rolls, Sympathetic inks are formed from the chloride, the nitrate, the acetrate and the rulpl ate of cobalt, the first blue, and by the addition of nickel, green;

and that although he had the right which he claimed to criticizs the conduct of a member of parliament, he had no right to go further than that, and impute as he did, dishonest motives for such conduct.It was held, therefore, that Mer.Champagne was entitled to judgment, and the damages were assessed at $230.It was from this decision that the present appeal was brought.The Court, yesterday, confirmed that decision ; but were of opinion that the costs in Appeal should be equally shared by both parties.TROUBLE IN THE CAMP.Betweeu the Chairman of the Markets And One of His Clerk\u2019s.Mr.Montague Vaughan, is the somewhat aristocratic cognomen of the Sf.Gabriel Market Clerk, who has hala difficulty with Chairman Malone, of the Market Committee.Some time ago the chairman made a tour of the different markets for the purpose of satisfying himself as to their condition.He found that the majority of them were not in a condition conducive t> the public health.The market above mentioned, however, was even worse than the others.It was, in fact, in such a condition that Ald.Malone felt justified in having an investigation.The chairman claims that when he approached Mr.Vaughan for information, that gentleman informed him that he could find out for himself, and some other answers ot a similar unsuitable nature from a clerk of a market to a chairman of the committee.Accordingly a sub-commit- tee was appointed, and yesterday sat to adjudicate upon the matter.Ald.Malone presided, and formulated his charges to the effect that the market was in a filthy condition ; that the cellar was filled with the sweepings from the market, including rotten meat, that he refused to answer the Chairman\u2019s enquiries concerning the fiscal condition of the market, the finances of which are said to be in a mixed up condition.The Clerk\u2019s answer to the Chairman in reference to this matter was, \u201c You may count the stalls and find out for yourself\u201d The charge also stated that he winked at violations of the market by-law, that he refused to impound a horse, which it was his duty to do, and that he told the Chairman that be did not care a snap for him and would do as he liked.Mr.Vaughan, who was present, denied these statements, when the following witnesses were examined in support of them :\u2014Dr.Laberge and Sergt.Moran, of the Sanitary Police, who testified to the unsanitary condition of the market.Mr.Cutler, Mrs.J.Ship and Mr.Flynn testified as to the manner of collecting dues, etc.The meeting adjourned after this, and will be continued next week.- a> HAD THEIR WATCHES STOLEN.Two young men from Ottawa arrived in town on Wednesday and proceeded to enjoy themselves.Inthe course of their peregrinations, they picked up with a young Montrealer, and took him to the hotel with them.When they woke up yesterday morning their watches and new friend were both gone.Detective Trempe soon found the suspected youth but as the charge was not pressed he was 1eleased.S.CamsLEY is now offering a splendid line of scarlet and white Saxeny flannels at very low prices.ANOTHER WRANGLE.Characteristic Meeting of the Fire Committee.An Afternoon in Session with No Result.The famous Fire Committee of the City Council held another of its characteristic meetings yesterday afternoon.The original intention of the meeting was to decide on tenders for an extension ladder; but, after talking over the matter\u2014not in a business-like way\u2014for a little over an hour, the committee suddenly discovered that they did not want a ladder at once, and that it could remain over until next meeting.Before this result was attained there was a lot of the wrangling now indigenous to this committee.Chairman Stevenson presided, and there were present all the members except Ald.Perrault.efore proceeding with the tenders the committee discussed some other business.The claim of a Mr.Campbell for damages was not entertained.The chairman, Ald.Hurteau and the chief were appointed to enquire into the condition of No.9 station.It was decided to report to Council an amount of $750 to purchase three additional horses for the brigade, and the claim of a Mr.Mullens for stabling was ordered to be paid.Tenders for repairs to No.11 station were called for the 12:h of thefmonth.The chairman now picked up two long official looking documents from the table, the faces of the members assumed an interested look and the reporters got ready for the fun that was sure to ensue, consequent on a consideration of that ticklish subject, THE PURCHASE OF A LADDER.The first envelope proved lo be an offer from Chief Dorval, ot Quebec, ta supply two of his ladders, one sixty feet and the other seventy for $1,500.This elicited no verbal comment to speak of, an inscrutable smile on the Chairman's face being the only noticeable feature.When he picked up the second envelpe, however, tle meeting adopted a more animated appearance.The Chairman announced that it contained an offer from the Bab- cock Company of Chicago.There were two documents, the first « letter setting forth the qualities of the ladder, and the second a tender offering to supply the same 85 feet long for $3,500 with duty, $4,725, or wood or iron, if required, instead of steel, for $100 less.While the Chairman had been reading the above, Ald.Cunningham had been smoothing out a volumnous packet of papers, which he handed to the former as soon as he had finished.This proved to be an offer from the Ilayes Company, which the chairman said was irregular, Ald.Cunningham said it was not, and moved that the Hayes ladder be bought on condition that if it was not satisfactory it would be returned.This was the signal for a regular cross fire of talk over the table, which ended up in à cry of \u2018next meeting\u201d from Ald.\u2018Cunningham the proposer of the motion, who withdrew it.Ald.Wilson and the chairman characterized this as a waste of time, and the former moved that a report be made to Council recommending the purchase of a Babcock ladder made of wood.This move led Ald.Cunningham to remark that Ald.Wilson did NOT KNOW IIIS OWN MIND.Ald.Wilson was too set aback at this to answer for himself, but the chairman retorted for him that it appeared to him to be Ald.Cunningham who did not know his ownmind.He (Ald.Cunningham), had been one of the members who had first asked to have the model of Babcock shown here.By the time he got through, Ald Wilson had recovered himself and remarked to Ald.Cunningham, * The reason I did not move for a ladder last mesting was because there was no tender; there is one now, and I move that we get the best ladder.\u201d \u201c Next meeting,\u201d from the majority in response to this, which led Ald.Wilson to remark that such action was a waste of time, which he did not see tha use of.There was some more talk after this, but he supporters of the next meeting idea persisted, so the Chairman called a vote.Ald.Wilson first said \u201cNo,\u201d and Ald.Cunningham \u2018\u201c Yes)\u201d when it was Ald.Hurteau\u2019s turn.This representative of St.James Ward did not know how be would vote at first apparently, for he hesitated, but finally, when the Chairman asked him a second time said, \u201c there was no hurry,\u201d and cast his decision for next meeting.He then commenced something about Ald.Wilson, to the effect that that member did not know his own mind, and besides gave no other one a chance to speak but himself, when he was cut short by the chairman, who called upon Ald.V.Grenier for his vote.This member was not in a hurry either, and algo decided in favour of the next meeting, whereupon the chairman announced the adjournment.After the meeting there was quite a lively passage at arms between Ald.Wilson and Cunningham, incidental to the remark about \u201cnot knowing his own mind,\u201d when several remarks that were not exactly complimentary passed between the two civic dignitaries, After the meeting a bystandear jocular- ily remarked to a friend that the committee did not want a ladder.The latter replied in a joking way that the Fire committee would not want one until it had been \u201cfired.\u201d Ald.Hurteau overheard these remarks, and answered to the effect that he was above public opinion and did not care a rap how his actions were judged by the papers, THE RAILWAY STATIONS And the Sanitary Inspector.Mr.Radford, Sanitary Inspector, has interested himself in the matter of railway stations, and in consection with them has submitted the following report :\u2014 To the members of the Health Committee : GENTLEMEN,\u2014The importance of railway stations to the prosperity of à city is universally admitted, but that the condition of these stations is sometimes beneficial or detrimentalto the place, has been too much overlooked.An instance of this occurred on the arrival of a train from the United States, when I was inspecting one of the stations.Carbolic acid had been used in the public convenience.Two Americans entered the place; the first thing heard from one of them was that he feared that there was something wrong in the city, his suspicion being aroused by the smell of the disinfectant.Upon informing him why the carbolic acid was used and explaining why I spoke with authority, he was satisfied.Carbolic acid has in consequence been superceded by permanganate of soda, which accomplishes the purpose without leaning any smell.Carefully prepared statistics show that every year 1,218,000 persons pass through, embark or disembark at the depots of the Grand Trunk and Canadian Pacific railways in this city.On the most moderate estimate 104,000 persons accompany their friends to the station, or are present to ceive them, This gives a total of 1,320, 000 persons, who for a greater or lesser period are present at one or other of these stations during the year.A grave responsibility, therefore, rests upon your officers to ascertain, as far as possible, that these are always kept in good sanitary condition.These stations have been frequently visited for several years past.It has not been often, but occasionally, that there has been a complaint of bad odour, or want of cleanliness in reference to one or other of them.The report concludes with a few remarks on the construction of the two new stations and their appearance as compared with the old miserable shanty which will soon be a thing of the past.It is also urgent, Mr.Radford says, that proper care should be given to out-going and incoming trains, for many cases of contagious diseases have been introduced by passengers in this way.\u2014\u2014\u2014 COMMERCIAL TAXES.See that commercial taxes are paid this week, as otherwise legal costs and interest from 1st September, 1888, will be collected by legal process.No accounts are rendered, but amount payable may be learned on application to collector of provincial revenue, 63 St.Gabriel street.POLICE COURT.A Case of Larceny From a Police Officer.At about three o'clock yesterday morn- ng Sergeant Price, of Central Station, was awakened by his dog barking.Looking out of the window he saw a woman filling a basket she had on her arm with articles from the refrigerator on the balcony.Quietly dressing himself he went down and arrested her.She gave her name as Rosanna Pierce, aged 46, servant.She was sentenced to six months imprisonment.Joseph Morin, 25, labourer, Notre Dam?street, accused of personating at election, was discharged.Henry Thomas, Henri Champoux and Grant Douglas, charged with burglary, as already reported in Tue HERALD, were remanded to the Court of Queen\u2019s Bansh.SPECIAL SESSIONS.A Burgular Goes Down for Three Years.A young man named Joseph Mous- seau, Was placed in the dock yesterday morning, and charged before Judge Dugas, in special sessions, with breaking into the stote of Mr.Denahan, on the corner of St.James street and St, David lane, on Saturday morning last, and stealing therefrom a number of bottles of whiskey.Mr.Denahan swore that he caught the prisoner with a bag full of bottles of his whiskey under his arm about an hour after the window had been broken.Sergeant McAllister deposed to arresting the prisoner, who acknowledged that he took the bottles from the broken window.but denied that he broke the window to take them.The prisoner\u2014a young man, well dressed and fairly decent looking\u2014was sentenced to three years in the St.Vincent de Paul Penitentiary.RECORDER'S COURT.A Lively Time on St.Denis Street\u2014A Stabbing Affray\u2014Furious Drivers Lightly Punished.In the Recorder's Court yesterday, Joseph Hogue, charged with pointing a revolver at Ruth Fisher, at Arthur Morris and at Treflle Jeannotte, was fined $20 or three months on each charge\u2014a total of $60 fine or nine months\u2019 imprisonment.Hogue, who has already, it is said, served four years in the penitentiary, took it into his head to have a little fun and raise a little excitement on St.Denis street on Wednesday evening.He succeeded admirably in creating the excito- ment ; where the fun came in it would be hard to determine.Drawing a revolver he pointed it at every person he met, to their great astonishment and no little alarm.After frightening one woman into hysterics he boarded a horse car and cleared its occupants in a twinkling.He finally encountered Sub-Con- stable Morris, and, again presenting his pistol, was promptly knocked down, arrested and the weapon taken away from him, The officer bad great difficulty in getting his prisoner to the station, asa mob collected and tried to take him away, with the intention of beating him, The constable was game, bowever, and landed his man safely in the station.When brought Letfore the Recorder he was fined as above stated.Abraham Barlou, «clerk, Papineau Road, for furious driving and knocking down a woman, escapad with a fine of $5 or 15 days.The woman is said to be injured internally.Joseph Parent, carter, Panet street, convicted of stabbing Jossph Leard, in the chest with an oyster knife was fined $20 or two months.Clara Falthan, loitering on Notre Dame street, $10 or one month.Joseph Halley, carter, drunk, fast driving, and damaging a bugzy belonging to Mr.Wand, $5 or 15 days.VOSE & SONS\u2019 PHENOMENAL SUCCESS.A Complete Cabinet Grand Piano Every Hour.The piano manufacturers who seem to have come to the front most rapidly of late are unquestionably Vose & Sons.These manufacturers were established in 1851\u201437 years ago, but for many years did a quiet, conservative business.-Of late, however, a most decided change has taken place in the management of the business.The fact was realized that this piano had been before the public for over 30 years, and that in that period it had sustained an excellent reputation.The firm decided to push the goods, and now they are turning out a complete finished piano every hour of the day, or sixty per week, and orders month behind at that.The finish, the style, the action, the depth and richness of tone, the solid cas: plate frames of the latest and most improved patterns\u2014these combined assist in making the Vose the leading piano today.\u2014Toledo Journal.Mr.H.J.Shaw, of the New York Piano Company, has been agent for the Vose pianos in Canada for over thirty years, and has, during that time, sold thousands of these instruments.There are in use at the present time in this city over 1,003 Vose pianos, and never yet have they failed to give the best of satisfaction.The New York Piano Company are constantly receiving new styles in a great variety of cases, including walnut, rosewood, mahogany and cherry.The price of these pianos is as low as is consistent with the best workmanship, and they can be purchased on very easy terms.Call and see the Vose pianos before purchasing elsewhere.New York Piano Company, agents for Weber, Decker & Son, Vose and Hale, 228 and 230 St, James street.AMUSEMENTS.Acedemy of Music, ROSINA VOKES.The engagement of this popular little lady continues to draw large houses at the Academy.Last night the bill was changed, three new pieces being substi- stituted for the others.They were In Honour Bound ;* a pretty little one act comedietta ; The Circus Rider, another of the same class, and that old familiar farce The Rough Diamond.The first piece was played during Miss Vokes last engagement, but The Circus Rider is a new one in Montreal.In it Miss Vokes has found a part which suits her to per- tection, and will equally share the popularity of My Miliner\u2019s Bill.If is bright and amusing from first to last.Mr.Courtenay Thorpe made an excellent Lord Merton, and Lord Weldon a very fair interpretor in Mr.Morton Selton.\u2018We might suggest that he should wear his medals on the left breast instead of the right\u2014for the right is the wrong in this case\u2014but that is a trifling matter.In the Rough Diamond the part of Man- gery was played by Miss Vokes andCousin Joe, Ly Mr.Felix Morris, and with good representatatives in the other parts went with roars of laughter, This bill will be will be repeated to-night and tomorrow with the former one for a matinee.NEXT WEEK'S ATTAACTION.Roland Reed in The Woman Hater that will be at the Academy for one week, commencing next Monday, is one of the genuine hits of the year in New York, and the \u201c Standing room only\u201d sign has been nightly displayed.The supporting company is an exceptionally strong one and renders him excellent support.The play is full of action and the fun never lags or grows tiresome, but the situation and complications succeed each other in such rapid succession that the audience is constantly kept on the qui vie of expectation and excitement.This promises to be one of the comedy treats of the season.The sale of seats opens this morning at Nordhemier\u2019s.Theatre Royal, KIMBALL OPERA CO.The lovers of light opera will doubtless be glad to hear of the engagement of the above company for next week at the Royal.The press all over the country refer to it in flattering terms, and wherever it has appeared crowded houses have been the rule.The repertoire consists of Prince Methusalem, Mikado, and The Queen\u2019s Lace Handkerchief, Speaking of the performance of the Mikado, the Toronto Mail of the 2lst says :\u2014 \u201cThere was a constant succession of encores throughout the two acts, the applause being unstinted and of an enthusiastic character.\u201d Such an opportunity to witness the production of these popular operas at popular prices should not be missed, and the enterprise of Messrs.Sparrow & Jacobs in this respect deserves recognition.MR.McGARVEY\u2019S FINE SHOW OF FURNITURE.A visit to Owen McGarvey & Son's furniture establishment proves interesting, whether the visitor be an intending purchaser or attracted by curiosity.There is variety enough to interest, and beautiful expositions of taste and skill to please and gratify.The four large flats are filled with new importations, embracing bedroom and dining-room sets in the finest woods, with upholstering in all the fresh colours; elegant bric-a-brac, Venetian and rattan chairs, ladies\u2019 davenports, what-nots, plush plaques, etc.Amid all this variety, the difficulty, ons would think, would be to choose wisely.In order to assist the customer in this important matter, Messrs, McGarvey bave a suite of rooms fitted up as hall, parlor, dining and bedroom.The furai- ture in these «partments is of the most elegant character, and greatly beyond the pockets of the average citizen; but it will be promptly replaced with that for which the customer has expressed a desire, and thus, placed in suitable positions, each article will be seen to advantage.This is a great gain to the customer.\u2018While refined and expensive tastes are catered for in bedroom and dining-room suites, and special articles of elegance in easy and reclining chairs, lounges, etc, the wants of the general public are well attended to, and if Jones, upon a small salary, thinks of taking up house, he can furnish a neat little home for less than $100.Messrs.McGarvey\u2019s establishment has been thoroughly renovated, additional accommodation secured, and the convenience of the public consulted in the matter of arrangement and systematization.Among the many improvements lately made, none is more appreciated than their new passenger elevator to convey customers to any of their six large flats of showrooms.The benefit of such modern improvements is best shown by their very large annual increase in sales during the past forty-five years.Telephone No.1375, THE ROAD COMMITTEE Transacts Some General Business.At the Road Committee meeting ycs- terday afternoon there were present Chairman Laurent, and a full committee.The principal business was the awarding of contracts.That for suppiying chain stone for the pavement of Monarque street was awarded to Daoust Bros.at 55c ;
