Trouble Is Brewing.BY OUR SPECIAL SERVICE.LoxvoN, March 22.\u2014Deep indignation js expressed among all classes of Eng- liek men in regard to reports current a to the treatment of the Grand Duches: Elizabeth, granddaughter of Queen Vic toris, ty her busbaud, the Grand Duk tergius of Russia, brother of the Czar Iv is now well uuderstood that the Czar\u201d motive for appolpting his brother to be Governor of Moscow was not, as official- Jy stated, to give bim a mark of esteem, but to remove the Grand Duchess from the foreign society of St.Petersburg, where her maltreatment by the Russian Imperial family has already caused an international scandal.The reports us to the abuse to which the lady has been subject are not mere gossip, but Come from high and trust- wortny sources and nobody in England has apy doubt of their truth.~The Grand Duke is said to be really attached to his wife, but he treats her on the same principle that Russia treats a conquered prince or state.Having annexzed her by marriage, he has claimed that she must become Russian altogether, even to the abandonment of the religion in which she was born and educated.With this coercion, characterized as brutal, has been tried upon her.When she desired to attend English services she found no carriage to take her, and the Grand Duke on such occations has shown a displeasnre in ways that a Russian or Tartar, wanether high or low, very well understands.There is no allegation openly made of pbysical violence, but rumors even to that effect are current, The young Princess, now but 27 years old, and only 20 when she was married,appealed for advice to her father, the Grand Duke Louis of Hesse, and to ber grandmother Queen Victoria The Queen, dreading scandal appears to have advised her to comply with her husband's wishes as to religion.Officially the Queen was simply stated to have sent her blessing to her grand daughter, about to be converted to the Russian Church, the Grand Duke Louis, however, took a diffirent view of matters He was indignant and openly protested against his daughter being coerced as to her religion and wanted to bring her home Then ensued a correspondence between the father and the grandmother, the former urging the latter, deprecating in- terierence but before anything could be done the Russian :mperial family a prehensive of the disgrace that would attach to them should the Grand Duchess leave ber husband made the official announcement of her conversion and then speedily followed the decree appointing Sergius governor of Moscow, and removing hum and his wife to the interior of Russia, far from the glimpses of England and Germany thai may oc casionally be caught at St.Petersburg It is not at all certain that the end is yet.The Grand Duke Louis is thorougbly aroused.Itis he who has through The Times and other newspapers appealed from Queen Victoria to the English peo ple in behalf of his daughter and whatever the result may be he has certainly succeeded in exciting a strong public sentiment.es BRITISH LEGISLATION.Newfoundland Asks the British Goverm- ment For a Chance to be Heard.BY CABLE TO THE HERALD.LoxpoN, March 22.\u2014In the House of

SPECIAL SERVICE.STRATHROY, Ont., March] 22.\u2014Yester- day afternoon, a most melancholy affair occurred on the town line between Car- adoc and Metcalfe, about six miles from this town, by which a youn man lost his life at the hands of a neighbor and relative.The circumstances surrounding the case, as far can be learned at present, are to the effect that an old feud had existed between Robert Murray, of lot 1 concession 13, and Wm.O.Rowe, of lot 2 on the same concession, over some Government drains that runs through their joint property.On Satarday afternoon last as Mr.Rowe, was talking to Mr.Herrington, at the corner of the town line and 13th concession of Metcalfe, Robert Murray and his wife drove up on their way home from Strathroy,and with an oath Murray said to Rowe that if he did not get out of the way he would ride him down.This he did, running over Rowe and throwing bim in the ditch.Blows followed, in which it is said both used clubs, Rowe apparently getting the worst of it, and had to be helped to bis home, ome half- mile distant.Word was subsequently brought to Strathroy and a charge of aggravated assult sworn out against Murray, who was afterwards bailed out before

Sleigh bells jingling everywhere, making all things bright.; One-horse cutters, four-horse sleighs, in an awful plight.L.Everyone 5 in the way, but all is in good fun For Lachine will be the goal, before the day is done, And well the runners know it as their time begui e, For tis the annual races of the well-known, club Argyle, I : As we stand and watch the runners beford the start is given, Well may we thank our lucky stars our side i will not be riven With running o\u2019er the weary course or tramping all the way, A i We'll be comfortably seated in a splendid four-horse sleigh, ; And as the men stand side by side all eager for the race, We know hat they will have to run for hot wi © pace, And well he runners know that they will have to work and toil | If he means to be the winner of the famous Club Argyle.ur There's Kell, who won last year's Club race, is favorite once more While Mason should hot be despised till the journey is all o'er, ; And Corkey is one to be feared as oer the course they go, While Steel mall show, although he\u2019s green, be\u2019s not so very slow, , And as for other clubs, why then we\u2019ll see what they can do\u2014 If we believe all what they say there going to win, \u2019tis true; But Lam sure they'll have to run, with no time for a smile, If they mean to beat the men from the famous Club Argyle.IV The word to go at last is given, Kell leads the people cr As towards Lachine they go with all the runners nigh, And as they gain the open fields where now the strain Will tell, ; For there you find that Mason leads, just when the favorite fell, While Baillie is well on his heels, and press ing him severe He gains the place Montreal wants s0 dear; His triumph is shors lived at last as Mason leads in style, .And hearts leapforth with joy to know its one of the Argyle.\"he has longed for, and Montreal still loses second place for Kell has run them down, \u2018With Corkey gaining hard and fast upon the firmer ground, \u2018While Mason, plucky little chap, his shoes break down at last; He kpow that try how hard he may is luck is well nigh past, But still he struggles gamely on to do the best he can, And hoids his own for quite awhile, as on the gnow he ran Till sore with running on his shoes he leads by a good mile, Beating all others but his Club, the famous Clan Argyle, vi Kell leads again, near the Canal, with Corkey lying near; Thr B spponents now 80 far behind, they answer to the cheer : Of all their friends who stand along, and soon they'll reach the goal, And happy voices cheer them on, they now shail soon behold, But still the race is not yet won, for Corkey leads once more, ght nea 'P.Railway bridge, at fear- Bight near fhe.ul speed he tore And passed the favorite still again, whic made him very rile, For now the race it lies between the men of the Argyles.8 VIL At last the-looked for goal is near, Kell leads, the people shout, He passed his man right near the locks and knows what he\u2019s about.For easy now no more he'll care,his journey\u2019s nearly done, And soon to wear the laurel crown, for he has won, A The thousands shout hurrah for Kell and nearly shook to death By friends who shake his hands and cry while they have got the breath, Full well be Enowstney mean noharm, as all their faces smile All honor to the man who wears the well known badge Argyles.VIII.And now my pen has told ouce more, the oft ted stor .How Argyles Von their steeplechase, won it in ail its glory.How Argylesstonr men came in first, all other b own, AS on for them alauriel wreath all honor and renown.And none will e\u2019er forget the day of eighteen ninety-one, , When Argyles came out victorious o\u2019er ajl the clubs that run, How Montreal and Garrison were beaten by many a mile, And all the heroes of that day belonged to the Argyles.F.8, HOLBROOK, Feb., 1891, The Mountain Race.I.\"Twas a glorious morning, the sun shone with splendor On that ever-memorable day of the race;

OUR SPECIAL SERVICE.New York, March 21.\u2014The greatest fizzle of a six-day pedestrian race ever held in this or any other city, ended tonight shortly after 10 o\u2019clock.Hughes, the old veteran, carried off the honors, such as they were.He covered 558 miles, leaving his nearest competitor by 18 miles.During the week he had less rest than any other man\u2019 in the race except Moore Hughes was off the track in all 15 hours andé57 minutes, Moore rested 15 hours and 9 minutes.Tbe otber men did well but not what was expected of them.The financial troubles at the outset discouraged the men.Bennett-tbe Cannuck\u2014 was the unknown quantity in the race, he proved himself a good one and is sure to be prominent in future races.The closing hours of the match were not like those of any other previous match.The attenadance was slim and little enthusiasm was displayed.The receipts to be divided between the men amounted to about $9000.The score at the closing was : Hughes 558 miles; 2

expenses and play him for the championship and any purse besides.I think I am perfectly plain and wish to be understood.\u201d Ives said: \u201cSlosson is dodging the question.The $100 which was deposited with the Brunswick-Balke-Collender Company was only as a forfeit for a $500 purse which I challenged him to play for within 30 to 60 days, and he seems to think that the $100 deposit is the

Club men.They bad 30 days in which to respond to the charges, at the expiration of which they were to be expelled from the organization or have their suspensions raised, according to the evidence against them.But theallotted time has expired and no action has been taken, which does the men great injustice, leaving them in a quandary whether to commence training for the spring races or not.The

between the crews of the Oxford and Cambridge universities was decided this morning, It was won by a quarter of a length by Oxford.The time of the Oxford crew was 22 minutes.The race was over the usual course, which starts at Point, 100 yards above Putney bridge, near London, and finishes about the same distance above the Ship Inn, at Mortlake.The distance is about four and a quarter miles.The tide was high at London bridge at about 1 p.m, and at Pat- ney about an hour later.Only four steamers were allowed to follow the race.These were in addition tothe umpire\u2019s launch.One of these steamboats was occupied by the representatives of the press, the second was devoted to old university oarsmen, and the two remaining two were setapart for the officers of the different college boat clubs of the two universities.The Thames Conservancy Board performed the police duties on the course and assigned proper positions to the many hundreds of steamers and barges, loaded with oaramen and their admirers which were anchored or moored along the river.In addition the housetops, cowpaths, streets and other points of vantage rearthe Thames, about Putney itself, and at Hammerdthith, Barnes, Mortlake and other places there were crowds of spectators.Oxford won the toss and chose the Middlesex or north side.Carabridg» bad tobe conient with the Surrey, or southern course.Tbe rival eights were started prettily and successfully at 10:19 a.m.sharp.As the crews went to their work hail and snow were falling upon them in no pleasant fashion, and a strong, cross, northeast wind was raising a very lumpy sea.Both crews had been expectirg bad weather and consequently they both utilized presty high washboards.Cambridge at first got away with the lead, pulling a shorter, smarier, somewhat quicker, more catchy stroke than Oxford, and at the Claspers boat house the Cambridge boat was ahead.Then Oxfoxd went to her work, pulling a long, dragging, powerful stroke, Oxford was leading shghtly at the Craven cottage, six furlongs from the start.At the Crab tree, one mile and three furlongs from the start, Oxford had the lead by a length, but under the influence of a period of bright sunshine which succeeded the hail and snow the Cambridge crew spurted neatly and gallanily, puiling their shorter and quicker stroke with plenty of vim and with a good grip on the water, which surged their boat ahead in fine style.This effort redcubled the cheers from the river banks and, at the Soap Works, one mile and 3} furlongs from the start, the two boats were apparently on a level.Nearing Hammersmith bridge, one mile and six furlongs from the start,Cambridge again made a magnificient spurt, pulling finely and strongly together, and passed under that bridge a quarter of length ahead, amid a scene of tremendous excitement.Their time to this point was 8 minutes, 56 seconds.Cambridge's gallant spurt, which resulted in the fact that the Jight blues were first under Hammersmith bridge, according to tradition, should have landed their boat first over the winning line.Oxford, however, did not Icse heart, but bent down ali the more doggedly to their work, tugging sullenly, gritiily at their oars and putting a splendid move on their boat.At the Doves, two miles from the the start, Oxford led slightly, Cambridge still sticking to her work in mag- nificient style in spite of the creap- ing up of their dark blue opponents.Going towards Corney reach, the boats struck into smoother water, which assisted the lighter men in the Cambridge bort, and beyond the Honneycrofts they forged ahead, eventually leading Oxford by quarter ofalength.The stream however, here began to favor Oxford, and at Barnes Bridge, over three and a balf miles from the start, Oxford was leading by half a length, Time 18 min, 10 secs.From that point Oxford had much the best station, getting almost clear from the Light Blues, though both crews were rowing in superb style.The struggle in the last quarter of a mile will long be remembered in the aquatic world.It wes simply magnificent.Oxford had all the work she could do cut out for her as the boats rounded the Barnes bend of the river.Cambridge was rowing pluckily rinity 12 114 and with plenty of strength, but Oxford passed over the line first by a quartar of a length, amid intense, almost indescribable excitement, winning the grandes: race rowed onthe Thames io many years.Betting was nominal 3 tr 1 on OxforJ.The following iss list showing the winners since 1875: Date Winner Distance Time .m yds m 8 1875 March 20 Oxford

HERALD.Lonnow, March 21.\u2014The race between Oxford and Cambridge did far better tban had been generally expected and it is argued that the race was the most exciting and best contested that tle mvriad frequenters of the course have had the good forture to witness in many years.The lyric club entertained a large number of dramatic and musical celebraties at their club house at Barnes, from which a splendid view of the race was bad.The rival crews are dining together to-night at the Cafe Monfoco with Justice Denman presiding.The eminent judge was a member of the Cambridge eight that rowed in 1840.He is ite proud of the good form shown by the Cantabs t o-dav even though they did not win.As forthe University boys at large, they are, to use an expressive Americanism, painting the town red.Teemer Makes a Deposit.Bosrox, March 21.\u2014The Globe last night received from John Teemer of St.Louis a certified check for $200 as a forfeit for a sculling race with Edward Hanlan for

Hanlan does not accept the challenge is open on the game conditions to Gaudaur or O'Connor.\u2014_\u2014\u2014 THE RING, \u2018 The Trouble Ended\u2014Walsh is Given the Fight, After the principals were admitted to bail on Friday evening the roferee of the fight ordered that the men should meet at Lachine at midnight and finish the battle and in the event of only one turning up he would be allowed the fight or if neither men went out the contest would be declared a draw.A large number of sports drove out to the suburban municipality in anticipation of witnessing another mill and after a long delay they came to the conclusion that they had gone on a wild goose chase.It was after 1 o\u2019clock when Walsh and his friends showed up and as there was no prospect of the other principal arriving the fight was awarded to the one present.Guthrie had no intention of going out as a sprained arm, he considered was enough for him to bear just then.The men may probably meet again within a few months and not for a $100 purse either.Gone to Baltimore, BY OUR SPECIAL SERVICE, SAN FRANCISOO,March 21.\u2014Kilrain and Muldoon have left for Baltimore.Their theatrical combination opens there

heavier man than Bresiin, and has a reputation for strength much above the average.The Pittsburgh man was looked upon as a sure winner when be showed in the ring against his smaller opponent.There

out Jim Daly in 8ix rounds yesterday at Philadelphia created quite a surprise here.Patsy Farrell's friends now feel more confident McAuliffe will not knock Farrell out in 10 rounds on March 30, when they are to meet in the ring.Farrell is in a higher class than Daly, and he claims that when McAu- liffe could not knock Daly out in six rounds, he cannot defeat him in 10 rounds, A delegation of sporting men will accompany Farrell to New York, and they will not only bet even money that McAuliffe does not succeed 1n knocking out their favorite, but they will take odda on Farrell's chances of defeating McAu- liffe.Farrell is in splendid condition.He hae been carefully trained by Everett McClelland, the pedestrian.He wiil enter tbe ring strong as a bullock ani weigh 175 to 180 pounds.\u201d

over a stiff hunting country, the course involving the crossing by the riders of a brook on the outward and also on the home stretch.The heavyweight cup was won by Mr.Alfred Edward Pease, member for York city, with Mr.R.T.Herman-Lodge, member for Acrington division of Northeast Lancashire, second.The cup for lightweights was carried off by Lord H.Bentnick, member for northwestern division of Norfolk, with Mr.Walter Humelong, member for Devisers division of Witle, second.General Sporting Gossip, The .Leanders of Hamilton are arranging with the Argonauts for a series «of inter-club

well-known home player of tbe Toronto Club, will no more be seen on the Rosedale grounds, as he leaves next week to fill tbe position of manager of the Standard Bank at Brus- gels.Trainer Donovan says that when the Brooklyn Handicap date arrives Tenny will surely be a starter if he is then fit to run, and from present indications he thinks the horse will then te ready.This seems to dispose of tne report that Tenny is to have a special preparation for the Suburban and to be a non-starter for the Brooklyn.Borton Herald :\u2014John Fitzpatrick, the Toronto fighter, has healed hws differences with the Ajaz Athletic Club, and has started in training again to fight Bobby Burns.Larry Killan\u2019s telegram to Joe Murphy, requesting his to take Fitz's place, received a negative answer, and the Canadian was therefore conciliated by the club.He says he\u2019s satisfied he'll get his money if he wins.Joe Thompson, the plunging Australian bookmaker, has abandoned hig effort to establish a first-class track near San Fransisco, and will instead devote himself to plaio, ordinary bookmaking on the eastern race tracks during the coming turf season.Too many obstacles were thrown in the way of his securing a suitable tiact of land for a race track to suit him, hence his abandonment of his Frisco scheme.The Olympic Club, of New Orleans, offer a $5,000 purse for a fight between Jack McAuliffe aud Billy Meyer, set-to to take place next month.The purse is in addition to a wager of $5000 between the managers of the men.A forfeit of $1000 has been in \u201cBud\u201d Renaud\u2019s hands for several weeks.It is believad that McAuliffe will accept the Olympic's terms.Kelly, the backer of Meyer, has already accepted for bis man.Longfellow and the great English stallion Touchstone resemble each other in one respect, the latter having never sired a chestnut foal, while but one colt ot this color has ever been reported as being by the former.Touchstone got nothing but bays and browns.The same 18 equally true of the graat New Zealand sire, Musket, who never got a a Chestnut or a bay horse.Musket was very strongly inbred to Camel, the sire of Touchstone, and Camel was a dark brown himself, Link Rope of Streator, Ill., and Martin Flaherty of Providence, R.I., bantams, fought for nearly two hours at Lenora, 1l., Saturday morning for a purse of $500 and a side bet of $300.The Rhode Island man had considerably the best of it from the start and he was declared the winner at the end of the 26th round.Frcm the 20th to the 26th round Fla- herty hit his opponent at will and in one round knocked him down four times.Billy Myers, the \u201cStreator Cyclone,\u201d was one of the seconds for Rope.etree An Eye Opener for Connoisseurs and Others on Imported Cigars.As it is well known to all tobacco dealers that the Vuelta Abajo district is conceded to be the finest on the island of Cubs, and that no other tobacco is equal in gnality, or commands as high a price on the market, we wish to inform the connoisseurs of imported Havaua cigars that seven-eightbs of the imported cigars bronght into this country are not of Vu- elta Abajotobacco.In order toconvince the public that we are sincere in what we state, we will pay to the charitable institutions of this city the sum of $1000 if our s:atement cau be disproved.We will also forfeit for the same purpose a like sum if our La Cadena brand of clear Havana cigars is not manufactured ex- cusively of Vuolta Abajo tobacco.S.Davis & Soxs, Montreal \u2014-\u2014 A Valuable Mineral Water.Every day brings fresh evidence of

m-rcies\u201d would have been à very appropriate \u201cnom de plume\u201d for the gentieman who wrote to a contemporary in defence of the management of the Fraser Institute.We would at once disclaim any intention to animadvert on tue effcrts of the gentleman who holds the position of sacretary.His tenure of office is but racent and he inberits the system that has been for some years carried out.The defenc> ie really à powerful attack.Here is an institution endowed by a departed citizen with the intention of benefiting those among whom he had lived and labored and prospered- After some five or Six years of existence we find that no printed catalog by which one could readilly find the work he is in search of bas yet been issued.To some of the remarks aboutthe catalog we must take exception.The writer, though evidently versed in literature, is not nearly so well posted in what is required for a public library.Probably from tbat standpoint he has not had the privilege of intimate acquaintance with public libraries.This view is almost forced on us by the complacent manner in which he wntes of the 400 subsceibers.In a city of two hundred and fifty thousand inhabitants four hundred bave been at tracted by this institution.In English libraries every citizen is a subscriber.No matter how poor, if he has the desire to read he has but to get the signature of two ratepayers on his card, and he at once has free access to the library.Not ag a lounging place, or a shelter, but to vick and choose among the treasures contained therein and convey to his own home the book he has a desire to peruse, without fee or condition.There are of course valuable volumes to wbich another condition is attached, but these are formed into a reter- ence library, to which anyone is admitted by simply giving his name aud the book he wishes lo see is then left to bis perusal in the reading room, being given up as he passes out., Then to every public library a news room should be provided.There on stands all the chief papers of our country and many of those of the United States, Erglard and France might be laid out.What a chance would this give to the artizan out of work or wishing to better his cordition.This would cost nothing but the charge of keeping the room in decent condition.As to the comment about the secretary\u2014librarian being also employed as factor or agent for the estate we quite coincide.The best man for librarian is probably about the worst fitted to deal with its finances.Disassociate the work.Let the librarian attend purely to the duties of his office and even at the comparatively law stipend spoken of, there are plenty of literary men Who having borne the brunt cf many a hard struggle would be glad to retire to what would be to them an hororable and dignified competency.Under such a man the library almost without cost would rise to the position it ought by right to occupy.It was not intended to be a very select rendezvous for purely literary men, but to benefit the whole community.Free books, free newspapers, a free library of reference, and almost free classes for the assistance of those who desire to educate themselves wculd make an institution of which the city would be proud.Its subscribers then would not be counted by the hundreds but by thousands and the memory of its founders would be for ever revered.\u2014\u2014 THE OTHER OX GORED THIS TIME.Are not the members of our Board of Trade somewhat inconsistent in their camplaint against the City of Victoria, B.C., for levying a tax upon commercial travellers?It is true that such an impost is in restraint of trade, but not more 80, in fact not nearly so much so, as the protectionist plan of exacting tribute on every article brought iuto tbe country for the use of its citizens.We are inclined to go fnrther, and say that the taxing of the traveller is a much more economical way of reaching the desired end than taxing the articles in which he deals.The citizens of Victoria do not by this means exclude and probably will not raise the price of any single article.What they do aim at and what this tax is intended to bring about, is that the trade of the city sball be done by its citizens\u2014that those who bear the expense of the city Government shall be berefited by its commerce\u2014 in fine, th: y carry to its fullest extent the underlying principle of selfishness upon which the whole supers\u2018ructure of protection is reared.Many members of the Board of Trade have subscribed to the principles of protection as fully as it is possible for a body of men to do.The very suspicion of being attached to a party,one of whose planks is the gradual sweeping away of the protective tariff, was sofficient to prevent the re-election of ome of their mest useful apd representive men to his officlal position on that board.The city of Victoria probably thinks that what is good for the whole is good for a part.They reason that if the curtailment of trade is good for the Dominionit is good for their city.But, in carrying out their conviction they tread upon the corns of Montreal merchants and are promptly informed that the position they have taken js illogical and absurd.These merchants are gitting on the shore of the great ocean and watching the rise of the tide ot protection, careless of whem it way drown.Bet mark! when tLe tide ccmes higher tban they expected and threatens to wash ou their profits\u2014\u201cThus far shalt thou go and no farther\u201d is then their cry.They bave done their utmost to instil false ideas of natioral economy; but when the people, deluded by this sophis- THE MONTREAL HERALD, MONDAY.MARCH 2 3.1891.try, attempt to carry out the prin- cirls to its last issue, and, by a sort of protection rua mad, protect not only the nation against the world, but province against province, and city against city, they gre shocked at what they call, the folly of the proceeding.We hold that the idea of levying a tax om that very usetul and honorable body of men whose mission it is to tempt distant people to buy such articles as ars produced by our manufacturers, is a species of madness that would almost justify the corsigning cf the City Council of Victoria to the nearest asylum; but then we ars at leust logical.We say the samo of the party which, by unnatural laws, attempts to strangle our national trade.We say that tbe action of the board of trade is incons'stent.Not with tbe principle of protection, which is pure seifisb- nees, but with its outward teaching.\u2014 CULTURE AND MARRIAGE.A New York contemporary states that as a result of its investigations into the matter, it has discovered that \u201conly one- bird of the graduates at Vassar have married.\u201d Vassar is in the United States what Girton is in England\u2014a university ,cr young ladies.Perbaps if a similar inquiry were instituted into the afier- careers of the \u201csweet girl graduates\u2019 who have gone out into the world rom Girton, results somewhat ideatical would have been reached.In themselves hese circumstances would not warrant he attachment to them of any i.n- portance.But when taken in conjoac- tion with certain facts which have recently came to light in the same connection, it must be admitted that they ara very s'gnificant.Last years statistics from Great Britain, Germany, France and the United States show that for the first time in history the proportion of marriages compared with the birth rate of those countries was below the tigures of previous yeare.It would be interesting to know the efficacious causes which have led to this singular state of affairs.It 18 not unlikely that the statement made by a thoughtful writer in a work published last month on the same subject furnishes tbe true explanation.\u201cCulture is the enemy of marriage,\u2019 be says.And he goes on to state that the reason why this enmity exists is that culture, especially of the higher type, not only emphasizes individuality, but fosters a spirit of fastidiousness which is fatal to matrimony.Thereisa gocd deal to be said in favor of this contention.A cul;ured man naturally wiil seek for his mate a cultured woman, and will also desiderate in her intellectual qualities which will be in sympathy with his own.Besides, history furaish- es evidence of the infrequency of marriage at certain \u201ccultured \u201d epochs in countries which have occupied a most prominent position in the annals of civilisation.Athens attained its highest esthetic and intellectual eminence in the time of Pericles, Rome in the Augustan era, and Italy during the Renaissance ; and it has bsen* stated by the chroniclers of those periods that there prevailed among the more 1n- tellectual classes at those epochs a decided disinclination to enter into the conjugal bond.But the reason of the decline of marriage during the epochs that have been mentioned, and in that through which we are at present passing, seems to be that the institution was simply unfashionable, as it is now.Marriaga is a concomitant not only of humanity, but of civilization.It may appear to go out of vogue for a time; but it is a permacent factor in buman nature.We may rest assured that it will very shortly come into fashion again, and that its unpopularity at present is but temporary.There will always be a wholesome supply of \u201csighing Strephons\u201d and \u201ccozy maids,\u201d for it is a principle in the ecomomy of human nature that thers will always be a congfant succession of the events which are the outcome of the unions which flow from these states of mind in both sexes, for the simple reason that it is ordained by the Creator.tl DR.WELDON'S ALTERNATIVE.\u2018The New York Sun publishes the following despatch : In his speech at the opening of the Barda- does Legislature last month the Governor of the colony, Sir Walter J.Sendall, strongly declared against the proposals recently made by Mr.Foster, the Canadian Minister of Finance, for reciprocal trade relations between Barbadees and Canada to the exclusion of the United States, The Governor pointed out that the McKinley bill contains a menace of possibilities which, should they ever be realised, would upset all calculations on Canada\u2019s proposals, and introduce confusion and embarrassment into both the commerce and the revenue of the island, In taking this stand the Governor gives official expression lo the sentiments unanimously held and expressed by the merchants and the peoplelof Barbadoes.All the newspapers of the colony have strongly opposed the proposition for a transference of any part of the island\u2019s trade from the United States to Canada, or ary interference whatever with that trade.Similar information comes from British Guiana, though Government organe say Minister Foster has not received any advices to that effect.The despatch from Barbadoes is in line with the views of Chief Justice Gorrie of Trinidad, publisbed in The Herald of March 12.These expressions of opinion all go to show that the West Indies are not going to imperil the comparatively large trade they have with the United States by giving preferential advantages to Canada in their markets.The fact is we are edged in on all sides by our own trade policy, more perhaps than by the trade policy of other nations, so that all talk of extending our foreign trade, so long a we persist in maintaining the old policy of protection is unmitigated humbng.If we wish to get out cf the business stagnation in which the country is jyst now sottle i, | two courses ara open to us: first, to seek free trade with the United States, by means of unrestricted reciprocity, a policy which the Government and Government organs denounce as treasonable; or, secondly, to lower the tariff barriers we bave raised and secure freer trade with the world, and particularly with Great Britain.If the Dominion Government are not able to adopt one or other of these courses, then, as that eminent Conservative M.P., Dr.Weldon, pointed out a few days ago, we are face to face with the alternative of political union with the American Republic; for we may as well dismiss from our minds any idea that Great Britain will enter into any preferential trade arrangement with her colonies as against the rest of the world.To this pass has twelve years of protection and Tory ma\u201d\u2019- administration brought this Canada of ours, the country that started out on her national career with such bright pros- pecis scarcely twenty-four years ago.\u2014\u2014\u2014 TROUBLE i8 sure to ariee at Ottawa when Parliament meets through the balance of power having been transferred frcm Ontario and Quebec to the Maritime Provinces.If Sir John Macdonald imagines the tailis going to wag the dog, there is a strong probability of his teing mistaken.But what a gay and happv time he is going to have keeping those Tories from the seaside in line.That they will make the most of the power accident and tbe fortmne of war has placed in their hands is the most certain of all things.They may be trusted to make hay while the sun shines.Mr.Chaplean showed them in No.8 how it cau be done and they are apt £cholars.But is it likely the two great provinces will sabmit to be bled white for the pleasure of enriching Maritime Provinces\u2019 Tories and of being misgoverned by \u2018the old gang.\u201d _\u2014e\u2014\u2014 INIQUITOUS TARIFF CHANGES.A Protest Against the Rule Which Gags the Press in Relation to this Subject.Leading Montreal wholesalers and importers were interviewed by The Herali on Saturday on the subject of the recent communicatiors between the Board of Trade and the customs department.Many dealers ou:side of the council expressed considerable curiosity as to the megrely reported discussions in the council of certain \u201c grievances\u201d held against the department at Oitawa.\u201cIhese paragraphs are unfathomably mysterious,\u201d said a prominent merchant as be quoted the following portion of The Herald\u2019s report of last \u2018Mnesday\u2019s council meeting: \u201cMr.Richard White reported to the Council that he had interviewed the Minister of Customs on the subject of certain grievances complained of by the importers.The interview wae, he said, a

\u201ccertain,\u201d imply that the grievances ares tionable, and is it used in the same sense as the term \u201cnuisances\u201d when printed just above a private alley cri the streets\u201d For my part I can\u2019t see why the press has not the privilege of being more explicit on questions that effect trade in general and especially on issues between the Government and any class of citizens.These difficulties with the customs department are quite common and may not be of much import; but every phase of the tarif question should be kert prominently before tbe public, because it is the greatest issue in national politics and the future progress of the whole people depends upon its settlement.To educate the public, therefcre, these \u2018grievances\u2019 if ventilated would be the best of object lessons.\u201d Mr.John A.Robertson, of Robertson, Linton & Co., dry goods importers, said that the latest misunderstanding with the Government was in respect ty à certain price of print which he showed to the reporter.\u201cThe tariff act,\u201d said he, \u201cfixes the duty on these goods at 224 per cent.according to the interpreta.ion of any business man.But alter we have arranged for alarge importation of this line ot priat and taken orders for large quantities them we find that the customs officer, reeds the act so as to place 30 per cent duty on the goods, \u2018Then we are obliged to fill the orders very often away below cost.You know we send our travellers out to the country three or four months before the goods arrive in Montreal.When we find that we have been misled by the reading of the act we sometimes go to the customs authorities; but our remonstrances are useless and the unexpected duty must be psid.Then again anotner copsignment is ordered, but while it is crossing the ocean some manufacturer in this country goes to Mr.Johnston in the customs department and the result is we are sent a notice stating that tbe duty has bsen raised five per cent.This, of course, is a serious loss to us, and really a breach of faith; but it seems that the tariff list, although given to the importers as a guide, 18 liable to changes every day.That is the law and tbe law must be kept.Mr.Johnson can send out orders changing the tariff so as to seriously affect the trade, though he knows as much about the trade as my foot does.But that is the way with all tariffs for protection.The manufacturers change tbe tariff to suit themselves and the importers are treated with contem pt.Their interests are of no account.\u201d Mr.Jas.Slessor, of Jas.Johnston & Co., was one of the members of the Board of Trade whose name had been frequently mentioned in connection with custotas difficulties.When seen by The Herald, he said that his firm were being compelled to pay 32 per cent.duty on goods that were entered at Toronto and Hamilton as Bradford dress goods at 223 per cent.In Montreal, however.the customs officers tax them as dress goods.Hence the discrimination against the importers of this city.These extra charges were sometimes mere bagatelles, but tney were great annoyances.Mr.John T.Wilson, of Wilson, Patterson & Co., said thatthe loss occasioned to the trade in this way was great, and tLe duty could serve no practical purpose, fur the boxes containing these drugs were not made in Canada.In some cages tuey were non-dutiabls iron drums, He said that unless & satisfactory understanding could be arrived at between the Government and the Board of Trede, a deputaticn of Montreal druggists would short y go to Ottawa to urge the

Review, The London Times, and The Illustrated London News, because there were mo school books and no schools where I passed my \u201ckid \u201d days.But I can read now as well ss the average man,

you are punishing me.I could take you by the throat aud throw you out of the window if I wanted tc.But itamuses meto have you pdund me on the hand, because you think you hurt me while I knew how to bold my hand so that you could pound me for a thousand years and I'd only smile.\u201d x The real point is this: Education is a growth.Itis not to be got by rule.I count every day luet in which I do not learn something.But it is not to be learnt by sitting down and wearing out your pants.Keep your eyes and ears open and reflect on everything yBu see.And remember that there is no one in life so

Burglar Hscapes Under the Cover of a Dark Night., : BY OUR SPECIAL SERVICE Prrrssure, March 22.\u2014Three months azo Rupert's jewelry store at Homstead was robbed of several thousand dollars worth of goods by aman and woman.A fe w days later Skelly\u2019s dry goods store at McKeesport was robbed of a quantity of gi ks and other valuables.It was sup- pcsed that the robbery was committed by the same persons, a3 both cases were Investigated by (1ker=cn\u2019s detective agency of this city.The detective located the thieves and at 7 o'clock this evenning Chief Detective D.A.Gilkerson and his sessistant, P.J.Murphy, went to Bull Run, a small mining town near McKeesport, to arrest a man named Fitzsimmons suspected of the burglaiies The moment the officers entered Fitzsimmons' house and arrested him his wife, from the folds of her dress, handed her husband a sslf acting revolver.Fitzsimmons began shooting at once and at the first shot Gilkerson fell dead with a bullet in his brain.There was a regular fusilade between Detective Murphy and Fitzsim- mons and his wife, which continued until their weapons wera emptied, when the firing ceased.Fitzsimmons was lying on the floor bleeding from several wounds, while the brave Murphy was also badly hurt and somewhat dazed, baving received a shot in his left shoulder, another in his breast and a deep furrow througa his chin by a third shots The woman stood by like an inluriatcd animal at bay, uninjured with an empty pistol in her grasp.A crowd soon collected.Detective Murphy placed Mrs.Fitzimmone under guard aad she was taken to McKeesport.Before Murphy bad recovered from the shock and excitement Fitzsimmons jumped from the room and under cover of the darkness made his escape to the river.A search party was organised and are in pursuit.Dr.Black accompanied -detec- tive Murphy and the remains of Chief Gilkerson to McKeesport.A later despatch says that Marphy's wounds are more serious than at first supposed, but he will probably recover.Fitzsimmons and his wife ars comparatively unknown here, and are believed to be a pair of New York crooks.Mrs, Fitzsimmons was seen in the jail to-night, but refuses to make any statement.PrrrssurG, Mach 22\u2014Fred Fitz- simmons aliag À.G.Budd, the burglar who shot and killed David Gilkinson, head of the American Agency of Pittsburg, and seriously wounded Detective Murphy last night near McKees- port, Pa, While they were attempting to arrest him and who later escaped with the aid of his wife was arrested near Homestead, Pa., tonight.A satchel found near the scene of last night's murder contained a lot of valuable jewelry stolen at Homestead.A copy of the will of Robert Fitzsimmons, dated at Brockville, Ont,, Dec.10,1890, was also found in the valise.This will shows that the murderers father was a wealthy man, having about $40,000 10 money to divide among his heirs besides a large amcunt of real estate.The murderer is named in the will as Frederick Carrollton Fitzsimmons snd is bequeathed $8000 in money and a good share of real estat.rt tr MUTILATION FOR CASH, Hands and Feet Cut Off to Get Accident Insurance, BY OUR SPECIAL SERVICE.New York, March 22.\u2014~Everybody has read in the newspapers from time to time of the many alleged frauds attempt.od upon the life insurance companies, bat few probably are aware of the claim which is made by the accident companies that the fraudulent claims against item, in proportion to the number of persons insured, outnumber those against t he life companies ten to one.Recently there was held a meeting of the representative of some of the leading companies doing an accident busi- nees for the purpose of devising means of relief in the matter.Some insurance men advocated the strict enforcement of the law punishing self-mutilation, while others say that legislation should be enacted against the companies, who, in their eagerness to get business, invite fraud by the large indemnities offered and the liberal time limit given.In 1889 the accident com- ranies issued policies giving $2,500 for the loss of a leg, arm, foot or band.This bas been worked, it is claimed, so extensively by persons who did not mind maiming themselves, that it bas become one of the greatest evils in the business.FELL FROM A TALL TREE.E, L, Norton Seriously Injured While Exploring a Florida Mystery.BY OUR SPECIAL

F.Coughlin, the Expert Swindler, Captured in a Depot, BY OUR SPECIAL SERVICE.PriraneLPHIA, March 22\u2014\u201cI would sooner take a dose of poison than go to New York.\u201d These were the words uttered by a medium-built, rather good looking young man, in tle Ninth and Green-streets depot of the Philadelphia and Reading railroed, yeeterday afterooon, as Detact- ires Crawford and Geyer quietly took bim by the arm and intormed him that he was wanted by Inspector Byrnss.The man was John F.Coughlin, alias Francis, alias Collins, alias Allen, well- known in this city and throughout the country as an expert swindler and con- fiderce man, who is wanted in nearly every large city in the east, Several days sgo Inspector Byrnes wrote to Chief Wood, asking him to arrest James Francis, who, it was thought, was in this city.The letter stated that the man was wanted for obtaining money from honest clarks who were seeking employment, and for whom Francis guaranteed situations, first, however, geting tuem to depreit 3 to 35 as a guarantee for the faithful perf irmaace of their duties.A description az- companied tte letter,in which it was stated that the magghad a slight patch of grey bair over the left ear.This an- 8 weredCoughlin\u2019s description ta thelietter aad C: ief Wood at once came to the con- cles on that he was the men wanted.Det: ctives Crawford and Geyer were de- taied on the case.They laid their trap for the man and he quietly walked in.Just two years ago yesterday was the last time Coughlin was in the toils, and, by a strange singularity, his arrest was in this city at nearly the same place and hour.That time he was arrested by Detectives Bond and Murray at the Commercial Hotel for fraudulently obtaining $85 worth of goods from Wanua- maker's.Coughlin first became known to the police of thie city eight years ago, when he, at the head of a gang, among whom were Alexander Limeburner, Eddie Wells, George Adamson, Billy Barry, \u201cDoc\u201d Weever, Dick McDonough, \u201cAl\u201d Ellis and George Murray, were driven out «f the city by the local detective force for working a bogus real estate game, He next turned up in New York, where he swindled an applicant for a clerkship out of $350.For this he was arrested in compat y with George Adamson on Dec, 6, 1886, by Inspector Byrnes.He managed to bush the affair up.The prosecutor did not appear against him.Pittsburg was the next scene of his operations.He went thers on his re- leace, in company with Billy Barry, alias W.J.Robinson, and opened a real estate office, which he furnished on the instalment plan.He laid his plans shrewdly, and had succeeded in obtaining $200 from one young man, and had three more who were to pay on the following day.when he was arrested.He was eentenced to two years, but through the influence of his wife he managed to have this reduced to one year.He tben came to this city in company with a young woman, whom he repr.~ sented te be his wife.He took the name of John Francis Allen.The couple reuted two rooms at the Girard House.On the day of bis arrivalhe went to Wanamakers and purchased clothing tothe extent of $85, which he directed be sent tv his rooms C.O.D, When the goods came be asked the boy to wait till he tried them on.The boy stayed in one room with \u201c Doc\u201d Weever, while Allen and his wife made off with tke goods.He was arrested that night by Detectives Bond and Murray.Weaver managed to get away.Coughlan wus tried on April 1, 1889, and spent a term iniprison, being released on ebruary 1 last.The woman who was with him turned out to be a 17 year oll girl from New York, who had answered an advertisement for a type-writer.Coughlan represented bimself as unmarried, and he and the girl were wedded at the \u201cLittle Church Around the Corner\u201d on March 7, 1889.After Coughlan's last releasa his mother-in-law No.1 came on to this city and asked for his arrest for.obtaining goods belonging to her from a storage house.He was caught in New York, bat she never appeared against him.At the Central station yesterday Coughlan gave his name as John Collins, and his age as 26, which is the same age he gave two years ago and which adorns the description attached to picture 1294 of the ce\u2018ectives\u2019 rogues\u2019 gallery.He will be given a hearing to-day.\u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 PROFESSOR RATHVON DEAD,

Another Without Exe, aggaration or Concealment\u2014An Easy! \u2018 Beginning\u2014A Warning Drawn in Vivid and Lurid Colors.| I am 35 years old; wife of a man who is as, devoted as husbands go nowadays; mother.of two \u2018\u2018interesting\u201d children.Men call me handsome.I think I am, though not 80 much so as when I was in my teens.: Born of wealthy parents, I was reared in the laps of luxury and my nurse, for my mother lived in society's whirl.: Up to my 14th year I was taught by a governoss.Then they sent me to a fashionable school for young ladies, where learned to speak Frenchand to hold my hands, besides many other matters of absolute necees- ity.Yinis was tho first epoch of my life.I was a woman: therefore I have headaches.A girl at the seminary, who came from New York, where all things that tend to vice originate, or are imported from France, suggested morphine.\u201c Anything toget rid of this awful headache,\u201d I said.* It's simply terrific.\u201d She brought her hypodermic syringe, cut an eighth grain of morphine in two, dissolved one of the particles in less than a teaspoonful of water, drew it up into her syringe, and injected tho solution under the skin in my arm above the elbow.The result was magical and almost immediate.The headache ceased.I became bright and merry.My tongue loosened.The effect was that of champagne.The seed was sown, and the noxious plant fiowrished.The remainder of my seminary days may be summed up in a few words: Periods of headaches or depression withont morphine, which I relieved by constant injections, though small.i Commencement came.I was the valedictorian of the class, and the most brilllant\u2014 all due to six grains a day for a week preceding commencement.The morphine had become a daily diet.\u201cI came out in society\" less than a year after graduation.The minutes of exhilaration caused by the morphine were followed by hours of depression, melancholy and despair, when I loathed myself and distrusted all others.Suicide would be a relief from such hours, and recourse to the drug was bad again and again.My realizations were twofold; I could not get along without it, and I could not live long with it.Well, I met the man of my choice\u2014of my choice because he was older than I and stronger-willed than ever I was, I loved as much as any woman could who had lived my life and he\u2014well he loved me with all the strength and blind foolish:ess of most men.1 believed he might be able to get me to shake off the accursed habit, but he did not know for months what fetters I had forged about me.Hesaw all was not right, but his simple straight forward mind did not penetrate the mystery.At last I told him that life with or without the drug seemed worthless.Let me pass over the shock.He did not desert me.He was faithful and kind, though I fancied his respect for me had van- jshed forever.Then, with his aid, and that of the physician who bad urged mildly that I break myself of the habit while giving me prescriptions of opiates, I struggled at intervals as best I couid to live without the stimulant.A more loathsome object than I when deprived of morphine, it would be impossible to find, except in another person similarly situated.I was the queen of liars.I lied about everything and for no cause, lied, when truth would have resulted in getiing just what I wanted.The druggists would not trust me for a penny\u2019s worth of anything.My craftiness and shrewdness developed as my desire to get the dryg, and the difficulty increased.When my husband would give me no money I would borrow; when I couldn\u2019t borrow, I would have stolen if I had known where to go.As1 didn\u2019t have that knowledge I pawned what jewelry my husband had not locked up\u2014the locket with his picture enclosed, my rings and watch.With the money thus obtained 1 bought the morphine, which I loved better than earth or heaven.As months passed I became weaker and had to take to my bed.I grew contrary.Unless I had the injections I would do nothing: would not eat, drink, sleep, lio still.\u2018Woman's natural perversity became superhuman, I shut my teeth and dashed the food on the floor.The doctor forced open my mouth as a hostler opens a horse's mouth to take in the bits, and put in a stomach tube, and fed me with fluids.I writhed on the floor, and shrieked for the stuff that was my staff of life.In order to get the morphine I pretended that I had various aches and pains which must be relieved.The doctor was told I had dreadful twinges in my eyes.He gaveme a 1 .harmless concoction which I know was not morphine, and which I resisted taking as much as my feebleness would permit.The injections were not made under the skin, but an inch and a half deep, straight into the flesh.I would not mind the pain if 1 believed it was morphine that was being injected, but a quinine solution, or even pure water, would often be used, and if I suspected ity I would scream as if the pain were unbearable.' The strongest characteristic of my morph- ined mind was the erotic tendency.Without thinking much of women, I gradually got the fixed idea that personal virtue in men was a myth, I descanted and enlarged upon this topic.It was a sweet morsel to be roll ed under the tongue.And I wonder if the writers of the erotic literature of the hour are not morphine eaters?[The most recent of these recollections are not recollections at all.After the attempt to cure me failed, and I resumed the regular use of morphine I had no remembrance of what I bad said or done while I was under treatment.My only knowledge of it is derived from my busband.] I am now taking 20 grains a dey.I succeed in living, and I wait for Death's release from a habit worse than the horrors of hell, I will not need to wait many years.Among the protty tea gowns in vogue one will be interesting in showing how cleverly & white china crape shawl can be adapted to the requirements of this poetic dress.The princess back was made of black velvet, and in the front this velvet appeared only as a short Zouavs jacket.They were close-fit- ting under sieeves of the crape, showing tho embroidery on the outside of the arm, while the long pointed over-sleeves were bordered with a silk fringe.This knotted sila fringe bad been cleverly arranged as a drapery across the front and formed one piece from the throat, all exquisitely embroidered.Another piece of the shaw! reached to the feet over a plaited flounce of tha enjbroidery.There was no apparent ons , Îng to this , and the fullness was hy i tkt at the by a silk girdle, J lee All who suffer from coughs, colds, irrita tion of the bronchial tubes, or tendency to consumption, will find in Dr.Wistar\u2019s Balsam of Wild Cherry a remedy as agreeable to the palate as effectual in removing disease.The Balsam is a pleasant, safe, powerful and speedy remedy; it'is a remedy that cures.BANKERS, BROKERS.ETO.HALSTED & McLANE, BANKERS AND BROKERS, OFFICE, 21 BROAD-STREET, NEW YORK, STRATHY BROTHERS INVESFMENT BROKER4 [MEMBERS MONTREAL STOCK KXOHANGE] 73 ST, FRANCOIS XAVIER ST, MONTREAL \u2014\u2014 Business strictly confined to commission.Coupons cashed, and dividends collected and remitted.Interest allowed on deposits over one thousand dollars, remalning ove sven days, subject to draft at sight.Stocks, bond | and securities bought and sold, Special attention given to investmant, Correspondents\u2014 Goodbody, Glyu & Dow, New York, Blahe Bros.& Co , Boston, & Co.Panmure Gordon, Hill Tonden, MacDOUGALL BROS., STOCK BROKERS.69 St.Francois Xavier Street Members Montreal Stock Exchange, Members Chicago Board of Trade.agents for Alex.Geddes & Co., Chicago.Grain and Provisions bought and sold for or hare on margin, CHARLES R.BLACK, Agent, A , cooper, Tige!

515@5.124 seen The Financial Week, Financially, the local market has seen little change during the past week.The prevailing characteristics y be summed up as dullness, lazy ey and absence of speculation.These thres, however, are but corallories of one another, for dullness and absence of speculation are sure to bring about plenty of money, with low rates of interest.An examination of the figures given in last month\u2019s banks statement shows whence comes the accumulation of money which is now offered freely at four per cent.without tempting speculators.We find that loans to commercial corporations decreased $1,019,111, current loans, $524,202, and call loans $167,583, making in all nearly two millions, mostly returned to the coffers of the banks because in the absence of legitimate fields for speculation the borrowers had been unable to make further profitable use of it.Then there is an addition to deposits at interest, of over half a million, which no doubt has been earning a much better rate in some trading or speculative venture, but for which now, the owners think better to accept the low rates given by banks than keep it altogether unemployed.A good deal of this financial quietude is no doubt occasioned by the between seasons nature of the trade at present carried on, and the general lull that immediately precedes opening of navigation.With the first steamer that reaches our port will come, the opening out of business in every branch, greater employment for avery class of labor, resumption of building operations and a general quickening of all the impulse that give life to trade.Meanwhile mone is easy, because not wanted, and pres dents and managers, whose reputatio depends on earning big dividends fo bnngry sharholders, begin to look glum over the prospect.Money eas at 4 per cent.is not a cer with which to conjure up fat dividerd: of 10 or 12 per cent, after all expenses ar paid, bad and doubtful debts provide i for, and a big sum put to the rest.On \u2019change, the week has been a quie one and the advance which has been going on more or less for some weeks geems to have reached its hight- est.An examination of our table of the week\u2019s business shows that of the 16 .| Man Elev.stocks dealt in, four only had made trifling advances, viz: Northwest land, City Gas, Richelien and Ontario Navigation Co., and Merchant's Bank.Four, Bank of Montreal, Bank of Toronto, New City Passenger, and Canada Pacific have declined, and all the rest are at a complete stand still.Of the whole week\u2019s trading about 65 per cent was in Canada Pacific shares, which on persistent hammering, and in sympathy with a decline on the London market, lost a half point of the late advances.The fluctuations of the week have been remarkably small, the difference between highest and lowest points touched being greatest in Northwest land, which shows a range of 24.This stock, however, is generally somewhat erraticin its movements, and of the more regular trading stocks the greatest variation was but 1, in Montreal Telegraph, other stocks showing merely fractional changes.For convenienca of reference we append table

follow.This lus induced a te porary selling of stocss an-! a slight decline in prices; but when it ++ ascertained that the Bank of Eoglaad kept its rate at 3 per cent and had increased its stock of specie during the week; the apprehension on this account abated.There was some selling on London account, perhaps less from causes on the London market than on the supposition that the exports of gold from New York might affect prices here.These, however, are but transient matters so far as respects their bearing on prices; and perhaps the present neglected condition of the market is due more to causes to which little attention is now paid than to what is transpiring in respect to current conditions, We seem to have forgotton the great upheaval of six months ago and do not sufficiently take into account the wide process of readjustment that must follow such disturbances of credit, values and investment.Such repairs of the delicately constructed machinery of finance necessarily require time.Some of the damages do not admit of permanent repair; some of the repairs are not to be depended upon; and the men with clear heads and deep purses prefer to wait until the recovery has been subjected to sufficient test of time.It cannot be said that the six months that bas expired is a long period to wait for a complete restoration of confidence, especially considering bow severely the financial fabric of London has been shaken; and it may possibly turn out that we shall have to wait somewhat longer for a complete recovery of confidence and of the ability to buy than the market is now calculating upon.To take a parallel case;\u2014the crisis of 1884 was far less serious than that of last fall, although the fall in prices of stocks was equal to that which occurred in October and November last.Yet, though there wss an early partial recovery from the extreme decline, as in the case of our recent experience, there was no spirited movement and no decided and sustained rise in prices until tne summer of 1885.It is true that the earnings of the railroads were exceptionally low in 1885, which helped to prolong the depression of prices; but that unfavorable feature was offset by a condition of the bank reserves ranging between 37 and 42 per cent from Jan.1 to Sept.1, the surplus on Aug.1 being $66,000,000.The cur- rept earnings of the railroads are relatively better than those of 1885, but nevertheless are not considered satisfactory.hese comparisons are cited not as ex hibiting a course of affairs that must certainly be repeated during the nex few months, but rather as indicating that the complete recovery of prices from great depressions does not coma quite so quickly as some have been expecting in the cose of the late crisis.Moderate expectations are always the THE MONTREAL HERALD.MONDAY.MARCH 23, 1891, affirm that 12 months must Le allowed for recovery from the panic of 1890 because that time was needed to restore tbe markets from the breakdown of 1885, vet it does not seem to be a reasonable inference from experience that it would be premature to expect any immediate large advance in prices.\u2018The midsummer months, if attended with good crops, would be a wiser choice for such anticipations.But while it would bs premature to expect an early pronounced \u201cbull campaign,\u201d it is fquite within the range of probability that, eo soon as the April settlements are out of the way, a firmer and more active condition of the market may appear and à fair advance in prices be realized.An easy condition of the money market is reasonably certain for the next four or five months; and although the current and impending exports of gold will reduce the bank reserves by a few millions, compensation will come from the unusually large disbursements of the Government and the new issues of silver notes, while the transfer of our gold to London is likely to strengthen that market and increase the foreign demand for American stocks.The railroad situation also is improving, and perhaps more so than is at present accredited to it.Although declines in earnings have been generally expected, yet the increase in January gross earnings is followed by an increase in February, the increase for the two months being 4 13 per cent, as compared {with a period of unusually large business.Such partial indications as are forthcoming suggest a hope that the net earnings way show a slight improvement on those of last year, the principal exception having been in the case of Wabash.The manifest reaction of Granger and Farmers Alliance sentiment in the Western legislatures is also a factor that should reckon for something in estimatiog the future of the railroads.So far as respects the winter wheat crop, such shadowy symptoms as are present apparent are hopeful.The currency movement for the past week has been decidedly against the banks of this city, The exchanges with the 1ntirior show a net loss of $1,370,000, and those with the Sub-Trersury a gain of $620,000, leaving a net loss of $750,000; this, however, does not take into account some $2,000,000 of gold taken or engaged for export during the week.Henry CLEWS.\u2014\u2014 HIS LAST PART PLAYED.Henry Aveling, the Actor, Swallows Cyan ide of Potassium, BY OUR SPECIAL SERVICE, New York, March 21.\u2014Women and wine drove Henry Aveling, the well known actor, to commit suicide Tuesday night.He came to this city Monday, having compieted his season with Eugene Robinson\u2019s \u201cPaul Kauvar\u201d Company, in which he played the leading role at Philadelphia Saturday night.He registered at the Sturtevant House, Twen ty-eighth-street and Broadway, where he had occasionally stopped during the past few years, He took room 305 on the top floor.Early Tuesday morning he called at the drug store of Willam Wilson, Thirty-fourth-street and Broadway, and purchased some whisky and a small box of cyanide of potassium crystals.He told the drug clerk who waited on him that he wanted the poigon to clean silver with.During the day he seemed unusually down-bearted.He inserted the following advertisement in The Dramatic Mirror and begged several managers for an engagement.HENRY AvELIMG.Owing to premature closing of Paul Kauvar, Disengaged.Address this office.\u201cI have had the toughest year I ever had,\u201d said he to one friend.\u201cI conld not stand ancther.Here 1t is the middle of \u2018he season, I have no engagement and not a cent.\u201d He met W.A, Brady, the manager,and begged bim for an engagement.When tod the parts were all taken he remarked that ecme one might be laid off and he taken on.When he was informed that this was impcssible, Le said : \u201cWell, I owe you a dollar.I am paying all my debts, for I am going away,\u2019 and Le offered Brady a bill.The latter refused to take it, saying that it would \u201cJonah him.\u201d He showed a number of people the oison and sald he was going to kill imself.Late in the evening he showed it to Archibald Ccoper, the actor.He took a drink with the latter and said, \u201cit is the last drink you will have with me.Cooper thought Aveling was fooling and told him to go fo bed and sleep his depression off.The chambermaid went to his room Wednesday morning.The door was locked but she could sea through the transom.He lay in bed as if asleep, so she lett the cleaving until late in the afternoon.About 5 p.m.she returned to the room, and as he was still in bed she informed one of the clerks.The door was forced.Tbe actor lay undressed in bed on his right side, dead.His form was distorted with the agony of his death struggle, and a broad red mark about his mouth showed the work of poison, His vest hung over the side of the bed and his garments were in the wardrobe.On the washstand was a flask of whisky which bore the skull and crossbones denoting poison, A similarly Jabelled small box, still containing a little cyanide of potassium, and a glass ore-sixth full of whiskey and poison were near.He had evidently swallowed the poison Tuesday night.tft Epp\u2019s Cocoa\u2014Grateful and Comforting, \u201cBy a thorough knowledge of the natural laws which govern the

\u201cLoot®\u2014The Andes are the \u2018Copper Mouniains\u2019\u2019 of this Big Earth of Ours\u2014A Region of Flowers and Fine Metals.Cuzco, capital of the Incas, was the City of Gold and a wonderful city it must have been.But the Incas, too were wonderful.This ancient empire extended from about the second degree north latitude to the thirty-seventh de- south, émbracing all the modern republics of Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia and Chili.Its western boundary was of course the Pacific, but its eastern has never been clearly determined.In some places it spread out far beyond the Andes, and in others the territory of barbarous tribes came down to within a few miles of the coast.\u201cCOPPER MOUNTAINS.\u201d As for the Andes, the early Peruvians dubbed these stupendous heights \u2018\u201cCopper Mountains,\u201d Antes (meaning copper) being the original word which the Spaniard corrupted into \u2018\u2018Andes.\u201d Their western steps, with splintered and precipitous sides of granite and porphyry, and the higherregions wrapped in snows that resist even the equatorial sun and melt only under their own volcanic fires, do not offer a more encouraging field to the farmer than the deserts where rain seldom falls, that stretch between them and the ocean.Yet every rod was utilized, and in order to waste no available inch of soil the Incas buried their dead in cave sand built their own dwellings upon rocks.TERRACE ABOVE TERRACE.They terraced every hill and mountain to its summit, the terraces being often narrow as the steps of a stairway and walled with stones; and they filled every crevice in the rock with soil where there was room for a stalk of corn to grow, These evidences of their patient toil are still plainly to be seen; and often the aerial gardens lie on such steeps that one wonders how anybody could have found foothold to cultivate them.GREATEST OF ENGINEERS, The irrigation system of the Incas was perfect, their ditches extending hundreds of miles and curving around the hills, here sustained up high walls of masonry, there cut through the solid rock, or carried over the valleys on enormous embankments.Massive dams and reservoirs were built to collect the floods that came from the melting snows of the mountains, and this supply was conducted to rainless localities.WHERE THE SUN WAS TIED UP.The best idea of how the old Capital must have looked before the conquest may be gained in the street now named Triunfo.The remains of several ancient palaces are incorporated into its modern houses, among them the IIouse of the Virgins of the Sun.There is a sort of crescent-shaped platform, which is be- \u2018lieved to have been the principal a¥ar of sacrifice in the Sun temple, and the famous Piedra Haroada, or \u2018\u2018stone with cuttings,\u201d which shows seats, steps, basins and altar, all hewn out of one immense rock.Near by is the Roadero, or \u201cplace where the sun was tied up\u201d\u2014 a gigantic stone ring, which shows the meridian of Cuzco.Remains of many other temples, fortresses and palaces may be found in the neighborhood of Cuzco, There are villages whose people live in stone casas erected five or six centuries ago.FIELDS OF WILD STRAWBERRIES, Various delightful excursions may be made from Cuzco without incurring i great fatigue.It is a pleasant horseback ride of only twenty-four miles to Lake |Huaipo, on the road to Urubamba.The latter Indian town, as wellas Yucay and \u2018Huayllrba, is quaint enough to repay a visit.They lie in the valley of Ucayali, where both climate and scenery are the most perfecton the face of the earth.In this Peruvian Eden are natural groves of fruit trees\u2014figs, apricots, mangoes, «chirmoyas, etc.\u2014and immense fields of wild strawberries.i THE GREAT \u2018\u2018 MAN OF IRON.\u201d ! From Urubamba to Ollataytambo is twelve miles, under the shadow of wide- spreading trees which during half the year are a mass of scarlet blossoms, while a mountain river ripples on each side of the way.Just before entering \u2018Ollataytambo one sees, high up on a wall of sandstone, the colossal figure of a man outlined in veins of iron oxide.Many superstitious stories are told concerning its origin, and no native will pass the place without taking off his hat, \u2018crossing himself and repeating an Ave Marie, THE STOLEN VIRGIN, One may spend a profitable week in Ollataytambo examining ruins and fortifications, and will be sure of a welcome in the house of the curate, The village is doubly interesting from having been the stronghold of Ollanto, a dusky noble who fell in love with the beautiful daughter of Inca Tupac Yupanqui, and stole her from the House of the Virgins of the Sun in Cuzco.He kept her, too, in spite of all the hosts of the Empire, forfive long years, until captured at last by strategy, by a warrior whose unspell- able name means \u201cMan with the stone\u2019 eyes\u201d\u2019\u2014when he and his sweetheart were burned alive in the great square of Cuzco, MILLIONS OF GOLDEN LOOT.H Exactly how much plunder the conquerors under Pizarro secured can never be known.All agree that the precious metals torn from the temples of Cuzco alone amounted to more than $90,000,000, - {It is known that the 20 per cent.that the {Spanish King claimed as his share of the oot was enough to restore financial credit to impoverished Spain.Millions {more went to the Church; enormous \u2018sums were expended in the erection of convents, monasteries, palaces for the viceroys and other public buildings, and enough remained to enrich every im- | pecunious adventurer who came to the\u2019 coast.\u2014Fannie B.Ward in Philadelphia \u2018Press.Santley Concerts, The subscribers to these concerts are reminded that the allotment of seat Will take place at George J.Sheppard\u2019s Inusic store on Monday morning, March 3, commencivg at 10 o\u2019clock sharp.Mr.SITiS8 is to be congratulated on the great Success which a fine subscription 1st foreshadows.Citizens have res- bonded wel} in supporting Mr.Harriss enterprise in so great an undertaking, FATHER IVIAVHEW THE ANTIDOTE TO ALCOHOL FOUND AT Last e A NEW DEPARTURE | u FATHER MATHEW REMEDY Is a certain and speedy cure for intemperance, and destroy all appetite for aleohoiie liquors.The day after a debauch, or any intemperate indulgence, a ingle teaspoonful will remove all mental an ! physical depression.It also cures every kind of PEvre, D ysrkpai.and TORPIDITY OF THE LIVER, when they .from other causes than intemperance, Itis .he most powerful and wholesome tonig ever used.Sold by Druggists, - $1.00 per Bort!s rt.e ® S.LACHANCE, sole proprzew.1538 and 1540 St.Cctherine St, Mencreai, STATIONERY, PRINTING ETC THE BEST CHEAPEST STATIONERY OF ALL KINDS WILL BE FOUND | \u2014AT = J.Theo.Rohinson\u2019s New Stationery Store CORNER OF Notre Dame and St.Peter EVERYTHING NEW NO OLD STOCKS ess Prices away below whau you have been paying.ENVELOPES At and Under Cost 250.000 Envelopes, white and colored, No.6 and No.7, at One Dollar ner 1000 Worth Double the Money @#-Sena for samples.MORTON, PHILLIBS & CO, Stationers, Blank Book Makers and Printers, 1755 & 1757 Notre Dame-st.MONTREAL.FURNITURE AND BEDDING Large Assortment, Low Prices RENAUD.KING & PATTERSON, 632 Craig Street.Factory\u201462 College-street.La Li 3 rd ê PUREST, STRONGEST, BEST, CONTAINS NO àLUM, AMMONIA, LME, PHOSPHATES, ® or any injurious materials.e TORONTO, 1.E.W.GILLETT, OHIVAGC, ILL Man'f'r ofthe CHLEBRATED ROTAL YRASTIATTA PURETEOR, MEN TEE } A POSITIVE AND RAYICAL ges FOR ALL FORMS OF KERVOUS 3 = GLEEY, DRCLININ BLOOD AND SKIN DISEASES, Prompt resulta $) safestand surest treatment knows Bok deer ing it, and how youmay care rete éslon=Dupre Madical Co, Ine.ur Laws aE 165 Tremont ti, Besteyy, Nass, D, L.DOWD'S HEALTH EXERCISER.7 EYRE For Brain worke and 3 N Sedentary People.sera Gentlemen, Ladies, Youths: apne Athlete or Invalid, A gNcOomplete Gymnasium.Takes up but 6 inches square floor £3 = Broom;

greenhouses to members of the Montreal Horticaltural Society and their friends.On Saturday last a large number visited the conservatories of the Hon.J.J.C.Abbott.919 Sherbrooke-street, Mrs.Redpath, \u201cTerrace Bank,\u201d and Mr.Wm.McGibbou, Mount Royal Park, which have already Leen described in these columns.prem The Declaration Filed, Mr.Joseph H.Pillet, advocate, of this city, who, as has already been stated in The Herald, bas taken an action againet Mr.Nolan Delisle, has filed a declaration in which he states that the defendant, who is his brother-in-law, has for years been anxious for his (Pillet\u2019s) ruin, and has constantly used towards him \u201cabusive and defamatory language.\u201d He also asserts that for this purpose Mr.Delisle has sought to drive him to dissipation, despair and self-destraction.He says, further, that he is willing that the case should be tried by a special jury, and asks that the defendant should be condemned to pay him $10,000, or in default be condemned to coercive imprisonment.\u2014_\u2014- Final Plans Prepared.The Protestant Board of School Commissioners met on Saturday afternoon.The final plans, in which there are no material changes from former plans, were submitted by Mr.A.C.Hutchison.The building will bein the form of a hollow square, and will be built in the centre of the present grounds, with similar elevations on Peel and Metcalfe- streets.The stiucture will be plain, but thoroughly comfortable and very convenient, containing about 40 classrooms, offices of the board, teachers\u2019 offices, library, large assembly hall, drill hail, play-room, two kindergarten departments, special rooms for chemistry, drawing and manual training, There will be two stories and a basement.The girle and the boys are to be kept entirely separate.The first plans for the new Bt.Gabriel school were presented by Mr.Hutchinson.The press were excluded from the meeting.THE HOSPITAL ON TOP, It was Again Upheld by the Court of Appeals on Saturday.Tu the Court of Appeals on Saturday judgment was rendered by Chief Justice Sir A.A.Dorion in the case of Crawford against the Protestant Hospital for the Irsane.Mr.Crawford in the Superior Court, sued for an injunction to restrain tbe asylum authorities from continuing the construction of the building on the ground of alfeged nuisance and personal damage to the plaintiff, The action was diemigsed in the lower court.aimong other reasons given bY the court, that by a_special by-law of the Corporation the Company bad a right to build wherever they saw fit.Ip delivering judgment the Chief Justice remarked that the French and English laws were very much the same in suuh cases as this.A legal corporate body might exist and yet be a nuisance and in such a case a private citizen had remedy against it, therefore the judgment of the lower court 8o far as the bylaw was concerned was hardly justifiable.There must however be an actual grievance amounting to a nuisance, not alone a fanciful one, such as that arising from smoke, noise or sterch.Any one of these faults must first be proven before an offence is constitated.n the present case none were proven as the foundation for the structure only had been laid.Specelation had been indulged in as to the probable pollution of certain streams of water in the vicinity of the propesed asylum, but it was mere speculation, no proof had been offered that such waters had been polluted.Again it would be manifestly unjust to lay down es a principle of law that because one man\u2019s property happened to be depreciated in value because of the erection of another building seme fourteen or filteen hundred feet away that the building in course of erection sbould be ordered to be demolished or removed.In such a case what would become other of charity such as the Montreal General, the Noire Dame, and the new Protestant Hospital in course of erection on the mountain, as well as our schools and colleges?Undoubtedly there were many people whose property was materially damaged by being in proximity to these institutions, but the fact of their being so located is among the events wbich we must be prepared to accept.In the face of the fact that no actual nuisance was proven the judgment of the lower court was maintained, but the words contained in that judgment to the effect that because of the by-law passed giving the company the right to build wherever they saw fit, be struck ouf, Paritan and Old Chum Plug Cut Smoking Tobaccos.The increase in sales of these two brands is

Huntingdon and the.Attorney-General, Chief Justice Sir A.A.Dorion and the Hon.Justices Cross, Baby, Bosse, Doherty and Cimon were on the bench in the Court of Appeals on Saturday morning.Judge Doherty rendered the judgment of the court in the case of the village of Huntingdon vs.Moir, and the Attorney- General vs.Moir.e said the case would have to be decided on the British North America Act.The council of the village passed a by-law prohibiting the sale of intoxicating liquors in less quantities than two gallons.Mr.Moir petitioned to have the by-law quashed.The gravamen of his charge was that the Coporation bad no right to pass such a by-law, and that it was | ultra vires of the Local Legislature t5 authorise to do so.The Attorney-Gen- eral intervened.The lower court maintained the petition and annulled the bylaw.The Corporation of Huntingdon appeals to this court, and it now became a question of constitutional law.His Honor dwelt at some length on tbe question of the rights of

the tenant- farmer delegates who visited Canada lag year for the purpose of studing the resources of this country in order to sap- ply their agricnltural countrym>n with reliable information which might guide them in their choice of an abiding place whenever they thought fit to imigrate.\u201cTravelling by rail,\u201dsays Mr.J.T.Wood of Halewood, Lancashire, from Quebec to Montreal, we passed through immense tracts of land, which, viewed from the railway car, is certainly mot inviting; though, after passing Three Rivers, the plains were more fertile.Montreal possessing 220,000 inhabitants, was reached at 8 p.m.; and an inspection 0 the town showed how rapidly cities in Canada can increase in population and importance.The buildiugs are solid and bandeome, the streets well laid out and lined with maples, which grow luxari- aptly ; pavements of wood, compressed asphalt, and macadam, are the rale.Thoroughfares and buildings are lighted | by the electric light; and on all sides are evidences of progress and success.It is important to the farmers in the neighbourhood to have such a population in their midet,\u201d Mr.Wood is an intelligent observer.se MR.WALBANK MAD, He Thinks the Contents of tbe Circular are too Partizan, Speaking to The Herald last night of the circular calling for a meeting of the Board of Trade on Wednesday, Mr, W.McLea Walbank said that that document was, to his mind, very much like an electioneering pamphlet written by a rabid partizan politician.Why, he asked, have the committee withheld the publication of their report so long?Was it intended to fall as a bombshell among the architects first, before the general meeting ?Then, he continued, it is full of inaccuracies, misstatements, and half truths.For instance the publication of the expervs letters, while the correspondence to which these latters are the answer is entirely withheld.Then the report states that the committee had selected the Boston plan on Feb.I9, although on the 22 of that month Mr, Archer, the chalrman of the committee, told a Herald reporter that the plans had not yet been selected.Mr.Wal- bank says that he is glad to have the committee\u2019s report as it will aid him and his friends at Wednesday\u2019s meeting.\u2014_\u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 Musu\u2019t I oiter Round the Hall, Soldie Forgotson, a 14-year-old lad, of

sentation to the Host.by the Employees.Some time ago the old buildings at the corcer of Port and Foundling-streets were torn down and 8 handsome new edifice built on the site for the Ogilvie milling firm.The building is a solid and spacious one, the interior being fitted up for the general offices of the firm in a style which entitles it to the name of one of the most palatial in the city.On Baturday afternoon, the completion of the offices was the occasion for a lunch which was tendered by Mr.W.W.Ogilvie in the new building.Although an impromptu affair, the invitations brought together a gathering of business men of Montreal, representing more particularly the grain trade and ocean and inland shipping interests, Mr.Ogilvie presided and on his rigbt sat Mr.R.M.Esdaile, president of the Corn Exchange Association and on his left, Mr.Robert Archer, president of the Board of Trade.Among the other gentlemen present were Messrs.Robert Reford, Edgar Judge, Mr.Thorn, Beaver line; Chas Gould, Ewen McLennan, R White, Jas Shaw, M Hanpbpa, Jas Currie, Adam Thomson, Jas Morris, Alex MacPherson, E F Craig, Philip Bruneau, Victor Magor, J L Smith, J E Hunsicker, Mr MeNider, Henry Do- bell, Jobn Magor, Mr Meehan, John Baird, A G McBean, Aug Girard, J O Lagrenicre, A L Hurtubiese H W Raphael, Wm Stewart, W B Smith, H Labelle, David Thompson, SSt Onge, D Robertson, Ovide Gould, À Nichols, A McFee, W Wylie, GT R; J H Hunt, W H Smith, Charles Esdaile and & number of Mr.Ogilvie\u2019s employees.At the conclusion of a substantial Junch Mr, Ogilvie thanked thoge present for their attendance on the occasion of the opening of their new offices, the com- letionof which marks an era in the istory ofthe firm.He \u2018proposed the usual loyal toaste.At this stage of the proceedings a procession formed of Mr.Ogilvie\u2019s employees, beaded by Piper MatLeson, marched into the room carrying a beautiful silver mounted casket, wbich when opened was found to contain a fine piece of silver plate in the shape of a punch bowl, beautifully chased and engraved.An illuminated address accompanied the presentation, which referred to the esteem in which Mr.Ogilvie is held by his employees.\u2018 On rising to return thanke for tbe beautiful present, Mr.Ogilvie was much affected by the proof of the kind feeling entertained for him by his employees.It was a surprise to him he said, and es there were men present who had been working with him for 35 years and had gone through many ups and downs together, be could appreciate the present all the more and would hand it down to his children, for whom he hoped the same good feeling would exist.The Board of Trade was proposed by the chairman, and in doing so Le referred to the new trade temple which the Board will soon erect, and a'so to the fact that Mr.Archer, the president, bas given lcts of ability, energy and time to the project.He hoped they would go on with their work and not be discouraged py little obstructions which crop up at times.In responding to the foast Mr.Archer referred to his pssl connection with Board matters and in tue work of erecting the new building said they did not expect to be a buté for everybedy nor for the gentlemen who make statements which are entirely false.The building when erected will be one tbat Montreal can be proud of.Messrs.A, G.McBean and Edgar Judge also responded and referred to the progress of the Ogilvie milling firm Evidences of the worth of the Messrs.Ogilvie\u2019s are to be seen from Montreal to Winnipeg and their forciight, energy and pluck in entering the Northwest when others doubted the propriety of doing so was highly commended.Mr.R.M.Esdaile responded to the toast of the Corn Exchange and indulge in a retrospect of the association and its work since its inception.Speaking of the new building which they hope soon to occupy, he said there would noi be a finer one in Canada.He also referred to the good fecling existing between Mr.Ogilvie and bis employees, Messrs.Jonn Magor and E.A, MacPLerson also responded to the toast in fitting terms.The Harbor Commissioners were next toasted and Mr.Chas.H.Gould and Richard White, members of the Board, responded.he ocean steamship lines were next honored and Mr.Robert Reford was called on to speak on their behalf.Mr.Thorn, of the Beaver line, also spoke.Both gentlemen referred in good- natured terms to the hard times which they look for during the coming seasom of navigation and solicited the sympathy of the shippers.There is nothing encouraging in the shipping trade to look forward to.Inland transportation interests were next honored and Messrs.David Thompson and Wm.Stewart were called on to respond.Both gentlemen spcke briefly referring to the improvemen's in the inland

connection, Mr.J.H.Hunt responded on behalf of the Grand Trunk.That road, he said, always tried to meet the requirements of trade.Mr.W.W, Ogilvie, the genial host of the day, was next honored, Mr.R.Archer propesing his health in felicitous terms.He referred to his success in business and to his genial nature, and called the company to drink a bumper to Mr.Ogilvie\u2019s health, After this

health of Mrs.Ogilvie, after which the company dispersed.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 Smoke Noisy Boys I890 Cigars, MARCH 23, 1891 AMUSEMENTS OF THE DAY, Successful Close of the Philharmonic Society\u2019s Season.The following report was crowded out of Saturday\u2019s Herald : The society reserved for their climax Berlioz\u2019 dramatic lezend, \u201cThe Damnation of Faust,\u201d than which a mora artistic work has never been placed for the approval of the pablica which it has received wherever it has been performed.A musical authority of high standing, writing of Berlioz, once said he was \u201cpossessed of a gorgeous imagination heated at times to the verge of insanity.\u201d This remark almost exactly epitomises the character of that master\u2019s artistic organization; and in his great chef-d\u2019ccuvre he has erected a cologsal work on the Faust legend which will make musicians thiak twice before attempting to enter into competition with it by treating that subject, and in which splendor of imagery depth of imagination, aud elegance of development, are allied to a consummate knowledge of bis materials and a traly artistic grasp of the dramatic and poetic beauty of the pathetic legend.The wealth of lapguage has been exhausted by critics in describing and praising this great work \u201d which our Montreal public have displayed their refined task by setting their approval upon as was witnessed by the vust sudience assembled in the Windsor Hall )#st evening, and yet ita beauties caunot be over-rated by either the reps- tition of the work or the iteration of its praises.Berlioz was undoubtedly the greatest master of orchestration that has ever lived.He was continually pondering how he could get new combinations, and when there were no instrumeuts in existence to render the idea he wished o portray he designed them and kad bem manufactured.The scer.e of Favst is one of the richest in existence, and 18 far beyond tho resources of our city to interpret as originally written.However, the conductor, Professor Couture, did wonders with the mears at his disposal and produced the effective tone-coloring 1n a particularly creditable manner.The orchestra under his command were com- pesed of good artists, and but few defects could be discovered in it, the \u2019cellos and string bassos being, however.the weakest part.Consider, however, that they bad but one rehearsal and the difficulty of the music, their work was wonderful.There is a large amount of orchestral work in Faust besides the accompaniments, viz, \u201cThe Hungarian March,\u201d \u201cThe Ballet of Sylphe,\u201d \u201cThe Dance of Will-o\u2019-the-Wisps,\u201d as well as the \u201cRide to the Abyss\u2019 \u201cThe Invocation to Nature\u201d and the \u201cEvocation,\u201d each of which are of extreme difficulty, and the graceful, delicats orchestration renders a false note palpable to anyone familiar with the work, The choral werk is not heavy, but is also un- veually difficult.The life of the work is dramatic and exceedingly fantastic\u2014 every opportunity has been seized to make a dramatic effect, or by a combination of instruments to create a realistic and criginal impression.The versatility in style is vivid\u2014as for instance the contrasts between the religious fervor of the Easter hymn, the mocking utterances cf the fiend, the martial tone of tte Hungarian march, the pathetic plain- tiveness of the ballad \u201cThe King of Thule,\u201d the graceful abandon of the ballet, the mysterious & rangeness of the \u201cWill o\u2019 the Wisp's\u201d dance, each of which stands alone effective, scholarly and appropriate; but the climax of this work is undoubtedly the \u201cHell Ride\u201d music in which the galloping of horses, the warning of flames, the cries of fiords and finally the teething flames surging up to meet the riders are all through depicted with startling reality, and throughout it the wail of utter despair is portrayed by tte waits on the oboes, which have a theme running through the part.In fact the entire work is replete with incidents musical, poetic and dramatic, contrasted, developed and blended in a splendor of treatment which will render the work abiding and of the foremost rank with masterpieces of the divine art.The ensemble effect of the performance was credible and onthe whole an improvement on last year, especially £s to the tenor and soprano soloists, but tbe chorus was a tr.fle unsteady in parts, but distinguisbed themselves in the lighteess and vivacity of their work, The Faust of Mr.Mockiidge isan artistic portrsyal of the music.He enunciates clearly and sang bis love music with live passion.Mre.Walker as Marguerite sang that difficult role with great finish, and the sweetness of ber voice blended with the tenor in charming effect.Mr.Ludwig sang his music with the vicious and sarcastic intensity that such a portrayal requires and his declamatory passages were well sustained.In reviewing the past season's work the excellence of the past three concerts may justly be a cause of pride to the so- clety and their conductor.Professor Couture, who has spared no means at his command to make the concerts an artistic success, a task which he hag certainly achieved.\u2018¢ Aunt Jack.\u201d Montrealers should be pleased to learn that the \u201c Aunt Jack\u201d Gompany organized by Messrs.A.M.Palmer, and H.8.Taylor will appear next week at the Academy.The fact that\u201c Aunt Jack\u201d had a run of 200 nights in Madison Square Theatre should be sufficient guarantee of its success in Montreal.This great success has been achieved since the last appearance of the comedy in this city.The company who are now playing in it are highly spoken of by the press and public.After Dark.Frequenters of tbe Royal will se Dion Boucicaults \u201cAfter Dark\u201d this week.William A.Brady\u2019s company arrived yesterday and will commence with a matinee this afternoon, The Galveston News says: Mr.William A.Brady, the proprietor of \u2018After Dark,\u201d is one of the youngest theatrical proprietors upon the road, and in \u201cAfter Dark\u201d he has a most valuable property, with which he has been doing a remarkably successful business all the season, with some excellent dates ahead, giving flattering promise of a continuance of increasing succegs.Mr.Brady is a hard working, conscientious manager and actor, and deserves his good fortune, With a well equipped company the \u201cworld is his\u201d if he keeps his present gaity toward the goal of coveted success.The Santley Sale Begins To-Day.This morning at 10 o\u2019clock the sale of tickets and allotment of seats to subscribers commence and will continue throughout the day at Geo.I.Sheppard\u2019s music store on St.Catherine street.On Tuesday the balance of seats will bs offered to the general public at prices from ope dollar upwards according to position at both Nordheimers and Sheppard\u2019s.The Santley sale bids fair to ou'r'v lthat of the Edward Sloyd concert last spring given by Mr.Harriss.By the way, tbe subscription list in Toronto for the two concerts thers had to be stoppad owing to the demand exceeding the seating accommodation.An Easter Concert.There will be à concert on Easter Monday night at the Vic's Armory, given by the Catholic Foresters.The O'Shea brothers, whose vocal abilities are well known, will sing oce of their popular dueta.The Heavy Train, The 11.55 p.m.westera train over the Grand Trunk was one of the larzest that has left Bonaventure station for some time.In additian to the regular requirements, apsecial Puliman car, extra first ciaes coach, and two extra baggage cars were necessary to meet the demands of Saturday nigbt.The extra accommodation was required for the Opera and tbe N.S.Wood companies which appeared during the week at the Academy and Theatre Royal.The former gces to Toronto and the latter to Rochester,N.Y., via Toronto and Niagara Falls.\u2014\u2014\u2014 BOTH PUGILISTS WERE FINED, Welsh and Guthrie Pleaded Guilty and Got Off With a Light Sentence.Dick Guthrie, Mike Welsh and Mich- gel Cleary, who were arrested on Friday evening for participating in the Craig- street prize fight, turned up bright and early at the Recorder's Court on Satur- Gay last.A big crowd fillel the cori.dors of the city hall, expecting to see scme fun when the trial came off, but were doomed to disappointment.Among the crowd were a number of \u201csports,\u201d seme of whom were crestfallen backers of the pugilis's.others were more respectable citizens attracted merely out of curiosity.Shortly before the hour for the opening of the court, Alderman Cunningham elbowed bis way through the wmotly crowd into the Recorder\u2019s private room and held a short interview with His Honor and the clerk of the court, Mr.Forget.Then a private trial began to be whispered.This was an undoubted prerogative on the part of the accused if they pleaded guilty to the charges against them, but the principals Guthrie and Welsh were accused of fighting and tue penalty attached to this is a severs one and the question arose would they plead guilty on (his charge?Speculation however was shortly set at rest on this score.To a query of a Herald reporter as to what Guthrie ard Walsh\u2019s punishment would be, Chief Hughes raised three finger\u2019s and replied, *three months in jail without the option of a fine.\u201d This wasa few minutes before the private trial wes arranged.um Before the accused went before the Recorder the Chief saw them and received à promise from Guthrie and Walsh that they would not again put up their dukes ineide the city limits.They were taken into the Recorder's private office together with Cleary and the charge sgairst them read by Mr.Forget.Wkhen asked if tLey pleaded guilty or not guilty, Guthrie and Welsh replied : \u201cGuilty of being there, Your Honor, but not of fighting.\u201d Cleary also pleaded guilty to being there, The sentence of the court was them pronounced, which was the lightest the law would permit beinz a fine of $50 each, or in default of this that their gocds ehould be seized, or if they bad no goods they should be sent to jail for three months.The chief then reminded them of the promise they had given him, and warned them that if they were brought up on such a charge again and éonvicted it would go hard.After a short moral lecture from His Honor on the inhumanity of man in thus disporting himself in such a brutal manner they were allowed to depart in peace.To a conple of reporiers the Chief told how be got the information about the fight.He said that abous1l \u2018clock on Mriday a man came to him nDd told him that he bad some valuable information to impart for a money con- & deration.The Chief agreed to pay im for it if what he had to say proved tive.The fellow then related what he : new about the fight, and the !nforma- ion he gave led totbearrests.Chief 1 ughes elso stated that he had the ames of 25 of those who were present.It is claimed upon good autbority that Welsh was captured in the cigar store djcining Clarke's saloon, and not behind the bar, as stated.\u2014\u2014 THE FINEST MAKE A RAID, 77 \u2014 MTR Many Men Charged with Frequenting a Supposed Gambling Den.Detective Campeau assisted by sergeants Chorbornneau and Sollivan, eur- prised a little poker party about 11 o\u2019clock on Saturday night in a house run by David Borsalou, 220, McCord street.Information had been laid before the Chief by a

delightful little booths and tbe necessary ,accompaniments, cards and chips, the latter of which they took in charge and will be produced as evidence at the | trial to-day.WILLIAMS 200 Medals Awarded, AGAIN UNEUCKY The New Reservoir Building at Longue Point Asylum De- £k.stroyed by Fire.LOSS $12,000-NO INSURANCE, Four Workmen Jump from the Windows\u2014Cne of them Will Die.- Misfortune seems the portion of ths Longue Pointe Asylum.Itis scarcely a, year ago that the memecrable fire took place, wbich swept 80 maay baplegs and unfortunate souls intoetarnity, leav.irg in itstrack only the blackened ruins and crumbled walls of that once imposing structure of buildings, ang representing a monetary loss of tens of thousands cf dullaie.Again Un baturday the asslum was visitad by he devouring elemevt but luckily tui, ime it took in an isolated bui:dinz, yot 1Le financial lcss amounts to taous nds of dcllars, and in all probability wiil re- ult in the death of at least 0113 man.Several new buildings are in cours+ of «costruction at Longue Pointe.Amon: these was the reservoir ritusted on the Lark of the river, just opp site tue a-y- vm property.The recervoir is in the \u2018crm of a lofty square, dcuble bricket waled tower, five sturies high 1ncladin- the basement.© It was in this building that the fire nf Saturday started and which completely gutted the building, leaviog only tha walls standing.dhe structure was nearly cempleted.The interior was filled with valuable machinery and equipments essential to the fuifil'of the reservoir.Four of the workmeu employed about the aeylum were at work in the fourth story, between 50 and 60 teet from the greurd.This was at 2.30 o'clock in the afternoon.In 15 minutes more their work would be completed and the building ready to get the engines at work to fill the reservoir.Suddenly without a moment\u2019s warning fire broke through the flooring into the room in which they were at work.They rushed to the stairway but on opening the door the smoke and heat.swept In on to them and, they were nearly suffocated.Their only avenue of escape, was now through the windows.These they soon reached and flinging themselves against the glass, dropped to the ground below.How any of them ever escaped with their lives after falling a distance of 50 feet seems almost a miracle.As it is, Jean Baptiete Lachapelle, aged 30, lies in the Notre Dame hospital suffering from injuries which it is likely will prove fatal.His back 1s broken and he is otherwise seri- ouely hurt internally.Another of the workmen named S*.Arnaud
