cent.Farmers would thus have to pay on an average from three to five dollars to the Government.It would be felt still more in cities, where civic taxation is already onerous.These taxes are to be collected by municipalities, in order to avoid additional cost, and also to veil\u2019 to some extent a measure go obnoxious to the majority of the populatien.The Government will probably not diminish

exists, as the nocnday gun is now fired from the opposite extremity of the Citadel and the Royal Salute on the Queen's birthday is fired on the plains.To-day being the feast of the Ascension, public offices and banks were closed,as were also most of the stores.BIS MIND AFFLICTED, Cornelius Vanderbilt Prostrated Through Grief for His Son's Death.New York, May 26.\u2014The Press says ; It is féared

Dr.Steinbach, Austrian Minister of Finance, urged the House not to delay its decision on the currency bills as delay would be attended by danger and would encourage intrigues on the part of silver rings in, the United States.Austria\u2019s acceptance of the gold standard, he said, would have far-reaching effects, which would require consideration.Although there was not the slightest ground to fear a disturbance of the peace in Europe, yet the question of a possible war was related to the rise in the value of gold.In the event of war the demand upon the resources, military and financial, would be so great that no government could calculate what its financial position would be.The bills were referred to a committee, A FINE CRUISE.Arrival of H.M.S.Blake at Halifax from ,

Prinetpal Places of Business Sacked\u2014Federal K3Troops After the Insurgents, and They May Yet Be Exterminated\u2014The Uprising a Great Surprise, PHŒNIX, Ark, May 26.\u2014A telegram from Guemay says on the 15th inst.200 Mayo Indians rose in rebellion and attacked the towns of Naojoa and San Ignacio, in the Mayo River District of Alamas, Mexico.They marched against the town of San Pedro, but failed to attack it.The Mayor of Naojos was killed and the principal places of business were sacked.At San Ignacio the Chief of Police and his brother were killed.Several inhabitants were severely wounded.The inhabitants of the town rallied and pursued the Indians, killing fourteen of them.Gov.Torres was notified immediately and state troops were sent in conjunction with Federal troops in pursuit of the insurgents.The Federal troops comprise a portion of the 24th battalion, and the 11th regiment, commanded in person by Gen.Bandala, commander of the Department, and Gen.Otero, chief of the Mayo District, intend to made a vigorous campaignagainst tie Indians, Gen.Herandez is in charge of the state troops.The Mayo Indians heretofore have been peaceful and the uprising is a great surprise.It is feare they have made an alliance with the Yakui Indians, who are concentrating all their forces for a prolonged fight.Utless the Mayos lay down their arms on thé approach of the troops, a decree of extermination will be promu gated against them, the same as against the Yakuis.In a recent engagement with.the Yakuis near Los Pillars, the Yakui chief was killed znd .two of his children were captured.MAY CONTEST THE ASTOR WILL, Some of Tho Children Object to Their Treatment, A New York despatch says :\u2014 William Astor\u2019s will may be broken.The injustice done by the Astor will to Mrs, Astor aud the Astor children, with the exception of John Jacob Astor, is so grave that there is a possibility of an attempt being made to break the will.Mrs.Astor's legacy, of course, does not represent what would be hers if she exercised her right of dower.There is a story that on her marriage with Mr.Astor she waived all rights of dower, but this has not been confirmed.It has been suggested that an intelligent and plucky man like R.T.Wilson, the father of Orme \u2018Wilson, who married Carrie Astor, might come forward and break the ground, so that his children might ultimately receive some benefit.Lo It is contended the will might be attacked on two distinct grounds, The first is, that William Astor was not in a fit condition, either mentally or morally, before his death to make sucha division of his estate, which was really an estate in trust, as would be fair to his family or in conformity with notions of justice.His life was not a model one.A long life of this kind, of course, had its natural effect, and in giving his instructions for the drafting of his will he was obviously dominated by only one idea, and this amounted to a mania.The idea was to concentrate the Astor money in the hands of oue representative of the family, so that the distinction of being the richest: family in tlhe United States should not be put in peril.The resulting testament, it is said, is grossly unjust, in every particular, rs.William Astor is left $50,000 a year and this constitutes her entire income outside of $80,000 which was made over to her on her marriage by her husband and an inconsiderable ersonal fortune.It is believed that Mrs.Astor's entire income will not exceed $75,000 a year, and as it costs her $25,000 a year t0 maintain her Newport establishment, it will be seen that she can scarcely continue to live in the style that she has been doing at Newport, New York and abroad, unless her son, John Jacob Astor, contributes to her support.This is the humiliating position in which Mrs.Astor has been placed by her husband.Not only is William Astor's will so grossly unjust to his wife as to open a door for suspicion as regards his sanity, but it is even more grossly unjust to Mrs.Drayton.The codicil of the will referring to Mrs.Dray.ton and depriving her of the $850,000 originally set down for her use, is à practical accusation against the long-suffering woman.The attacks.on Mrs.Drayton up to the present time, so far as the world is concerned, have been mercly based on rumor.Nothi of an explicit nature has been put forward.The charges are merely gosslp and in the air.The effect of his will, however, is to give credit and substantial character to this mere tittle-tattle.In any deliberate view of the rase, William Astor's will loudly declares that all the rumors that have been uttered against his daughter were founded on truth and furnish a reason for disinheritance, CALVINISM IS INTACT.American Presbyterians Will not Change the Confession of Faith.PorTrAND, Ore., May 26.\u2014At yesterday\u2019s session of the general assembly of the Presbyterian church the report of the committee appointed to revise the confession of faith was presented by Dr.W.C.Roberta.it contains two new chapters, one relating to the work of the Holy Spirit and the other to: the missionary spirit.Besides these new chapters, 26 sections in 18 other chapters have been changed.None of the changes proposed impair the integrity of the Calvinistic system of the confession.Several of the members of the committee have signed the report but have made exceptions to certain parts of it.In conclusion this report says : ¢¢ It was found impossible to meet the individual preferences of every presbytery without setting aside what were known to be the views of a large majority of the church.There was an effort made to secure harmony at any sacrifice.The report is the very best that the committee has been able to prepare.\u201d Sunk a Pile Driver,

26.\u2014It is reported that a representa tive of the Dominion Gov\" ernment may be expected here this week to make some statement to the administration with regard to the attitude of the Dominion Government on the canal question.This is done, it is said, on information which has been communicated to the Dominion Government by the British Minister here that the United States was likely to call the at- special message.The subject has been brought very forcibly to the attention of the administration here by representations which have been made within a few days by the Oswego Board of Trade, which insists that the canal tolls imposed by the Dominion authorities are in violation of the treaty, and it does not need any insistence upon its part to demonstrate the fact that the attitude of the Dominion Government is certainly very injurious to the trade of Oswego and other lake ports.The lake ports have all protested, but have not as yet been able to obtain any redress.The case as it is presented to the administration here is substantially this: Under the treaty arrangement with Great Britain, the vessels of this government and those of Canada are to have like privileges in passing through the canals connecting the great \u2018fakes.As a result the Canadian vessels are allowed to pass through the Sault Ste.Marie canal without paying toll and through the St.Clair Flats canal, In this respect the Canadian vessels have precisely the same privileges as vessels belonging to the United States.But when it comes to the Welland canal, where American vessels should have reciprocal advantages, the Canadian Government deliberately violates the treaty by discriminating under a rebate system.By this method, if a vessel goes through to Montreal there is a rebate paid on the tolls collected at the Welland Canal.But if the vessel does not go through to Montreal the rebate is not paid.In this way any vessel bound for an American port on Lake Ontario has to pay very much larger tolls at the Welland Canal than a vessel that goes through to Montreal.This discrimination has proved very injurious to the trade of Oswego, Ogdens- burg and other American ports on Lake Ontario.The New York, Ontario and Western railway recently constructed expensive coal trestles at Oswego, with a view of shipping coal to the West by lake, but it found that the excessive tolls of the Welland canal seriously interfered with the project.BREWERS IN SESSION.They Discuss the Duties on Hops, Malt and Barley.Bosrox, May 25.\u2014The thirty-second annual convention of the United States Brewers association was called to order this morning.The report of the board of trustees wasreceived.It is proposed to hold an international brewers\u2019 conference in Chicago in connection with the thirty-third annual convention which might become the starting point of an international league of brewers.The report treats of the efforts to have the duties on hops, malt and barley reduced.The latter proposition gave rise to a sort of sectional conflict between the western and eastern growers and malsters, the former opposing the reduction.While the admitted inability of the eastern malster to compete with his western colleague really means chenper malt of the ordinary grades, it is a well kuown fact that many \u2018eastern brewers regard Canada barley as superior to any produced here, and to them the exorbitant enhancement of the price of the Canadian product appears to be unwarranted, The report closes with a reference to the Canadian liquor traffic investigation, AN EMBEZZLER CAUGHT, He Will Go te Auburn Penitentiary to Spend Five Years.New Yorx, May 25.\u2014Stephen F.Sherman was arrested here and will leave for Bufialo to-day, and then go to the penitentiary at Auburn to

W.oodford, member of the Newfoundland legislature, speaking of his native island, and her resources became enthusiastic, and naturally the Canada-Newfound.land trouble was touched üpon.: \u2018\u2018 There has been no backdown,\u201d he said, \u201cbut Newfoundland has held on solely through friendship for Canada, and she was agreeable that the matter should remain under the statu quo of 1889,xpending negotiations for final settlement Lanada has applied to the Imperial and :Newfoundland Governments, advocating \u2018reciprocal trade, but Newfoundland was.not satisfied .to become a party until the protest of the Blaine-Bond Convention has been removed.Canada had suffered to the extent of not less than $1,500,000 per annum, or at about that rate, since the prohibitory tariff has been enforced.Ontario millers have lost largely owing to their trade relations with Newfoundland being cut off, and all this trade has been thrown into the hands of Americans, as it were.\u2018\u2018 Again Nova Scotia fishermen suffered largely through not being allowed to bait at Newfoundland, to such an extent, in fact, that year we utilized this market for about 100,000 quintals of fish worth at least about 500,000.; B00.h friendship with Canada,\u201d said Mr.Woodford, so far as I understand we ore willing to make a final arrangement with the Dominion and the Dominion Government has asked Newfoundland and the Imperial Governments that a conference he held either in Canada or in England to arrange matters.\u2019 .\u201cI notice,\u201d said he, \u2018that a Canadian fisheries cruiser will be sent to Labrador to revent Newfoundland Eshermer from fishing there.That is purely a bluff game, for the simple reason tint Newfoundland holds jurisdiction over Labrador and Canada has none.Labrador belongs wholly and solely to Newfoundland.True, there may be a certain number of Newfoundland fishermen fishing on Canadian Labrador, in the Gulf of St.Lawrence, but 25 per cent.more Canadians fish on Newfoundland Labrador, and therefore Canada will be more seriously injured if such protection is enforced by the Dominion.INTERESTED IN THE JEWS, When Persecuted Everywhere Eise They Are Safe in Rome.Rome, May 25.\u2014Jesse Seligman, of New York, accompanied by Dr.O'Connell, rector of the American college here, recently visited Cardinal Rampolla, Papal Secretary | of State, with

had always been a protector of the Jews.When they were persecuted everywhere else, they found a refuge in Rome, THEIR FUNDS EXHAUSTED, People in the Coal Mine Districts Where Strikes Exist are

Joosely-flowing locks and the youthful, simple garments suitable to her years for a eouple of seasons longer.The complaint is very frequently heard coming from the lips of maidens who are to be envied owing to their adorable youth, the very thing they despise.The rosy flush, the slight figures, the clear eyes will never belong to them but once Once only can a woman be young.She may in time be an angel, but she will never again be a girl.Do not forzet this, oh, ye young oncs so anxious to put behind you the onc period of your existence when the sun shines as it never will again, and when the birds sing with brighter, sweeter meaning than will be heard when the morning has passed and high noon with the greater heat and pressure of the burdens of Tife has rushed upon you.Isn\u2019t every young thing sweeter and purer than the world- hardened older ones of the same species?Look at the lambs at play, note the tender green leaves that shoot out in their innocent verdure from the old winter-seasoned branches.Puppics and kittens are the most appealing creatures, and when one comes to bubies there never can be in all this lovely world avything quite so sweet and lovable as a dear little dimpled cooing baby.Therefore, girls, stay young.You may have to bear some snubs and submit to some indignities, owing to your extreme youth, but the time will come when you will long for these

copyright series.) CHAPTER XVII broke away from Mary, who would have detained me, and rushing to the door of the room Mr.Marshall occupied, I tried to open it.But it was locked.From inside still came the hoarse, choking cries.They seemed to me, however, to be growing fainter as 1 knocked and called, getting no answer.In desperationI rushed to the work-room and brought back the poker, with which I proceeded to batter the door with such good-will that in the course of few minutes I managed to burst it open.By that time Mr.Marshall's cries and moans had entirely ceased.He was lying; fuily dressed, on the floor, with his hands tightly clenched and his eyes rolled up.1 knew that he was in a fit.About the room half-a-dozen great owls were flying, beating the air and the walls with their wings, and uttering hideous screeching noises, just as they had done in Mary's room the night before.Only now the faint light from the corridor showed me a string was attached to the leg of each ; and even as I entered, I saw them drawn up quickly, one by one, shrieking and fluttering, through the square ventilator overhead.At the same time a high, cackling laugh that I recognized, broke upon my ears.Surely, surely, it was Hopkins\u2019 voice ! 1 rang the bell loudly, and in a little while some of the servants came, entering in body, and evidently very much alarmed.By that time Mr.Marshall, whose clothes I had soaked through with cold water in my attempts to bring him back to consciousness, was recovering.We gave hin.some brandy, and Mrs.Camden and I stayed with him until he was himself again.But the natural color never came back to his face ; I wasalmost «fraid to leave him, lest he should die in the night.For the paltry trick had had an even more startling effect upon him than it had had upon his fragile niece.¢ You won't laugh at poor Mary now, will you #\u201d I said, when he had declared himself \u201c all right again.\u201d Strong man as he was, he shuddered.\u2018* No, indecd,\u201d he said, \u2018 I\u2014I\u2014we won't talk about it.\u201d When at last we left him, he had the room bright with a whole forest of candles, and said that he should sit up reading until it was daylight.I was in such a bewildered state of mind, that when I came out of his room I turned to the right instead of to the left, and walked on until I found myself close to the door which divided the house proper from the distillery stores.There I suddenly stopped with a cry.1 The door was ajar, and peeping through was the little impish face of the nightwatchman, wearing a curious expression.I drew a long breath ang stopped him as he was trying to draw back.\u201cYou, it must be you, who are at the bottom of all this ! lt was your laugh I heard !\u201d I cried breathlessly.And at the same moment I perceived that his hands were torn and scratched, an that there were a few loose feathers on his clothes.\u201c Well,\u201d said he, \u2018\u2018you\u2019d better have me took up then ?\u201d And with a straight stare, half-quizzical, half-defiant which [could not understand, he shut himself into his own domain.CHAPTER XVII, When I woke up the next morning and remembered the events I had so recently taken part in, I felt that the mystery of it all was threatening to turn my own brain.Whose pay was Hilary Hopkinsin, if, as it now appeared, it was he who worked the nightly disturbances ?Was it really Tom who had engaged him in this wicked business ?If so, how was it that it had not been stopped since the exposure of the day before ?And why, for the first time, had another victim than Mary been chosen\u2014and that victim Mr.Marshall ?There was no satisfactory answer forthcoming to any of these questions, and it was with a heavy heart that I went downstairs.Mary had had a good night, but it was something more than that which made her checks burn and her eyes glitter, and gave her a feverish animation which alarmed me nearly as much as the apathy from which she had previously suffered, Mr.Marshall sent down word that he would breakfast upstairs, and would be glad to see Mary and me afterwards, if we would not mind the trouble of coming up to his room,as he was too ill to get up.Mary seized me after breakfast, just as I was leaving the room.\u201c Don't go yet,\u201d she whispered.¢ I'm going.to send Mrs.Camden to see how uncle is, ond we'll go up presently.I've something to show you\u2014or at lesat something to tell you.\u201d She dragged me to the window and took out of her pocket à letter which I saw was of portentous lengh.Of course I| gussed at once that it was from Hilary.\u201cThe poor fellow is so miserable,\u201d said Mary, with tears in her eyes.\u201c He begs me to let him come here and see me, and says he has a right to come ; which after all is true you know, since I never formally broke it off with him.He reproaches me for having let anyone come between us; I suppose he means you, Georgie, so I want to see him to tell him he is wrong.And he says this is the last appeal his pri\u2014ide will let him make, Georgie,\u201d she continued, breaking down into sobs ; \u2018\u2018 and that if 1 reject it he will go abroad again ; for although lie 1\u2014 loves me just as m\u2014m\u2014much as ever, he ca\u2014an\u2019tin his position,himself humble any more.\u201d \u2018Young men always write like that, if they can\u2019t have any\u2014everything their own way,\u201d said I, in the tone of one who had bales of such letters stored up as evidence of the value sev upon her charms, \u201cI shouldn't answer him Mary, until you have consulted Mr.Marshall.\u201d \u201cBut I know that Uncle Charles doesn\u2019t approve of our engagement, so he is not likely to be kind !\u201d\u201d pleaded poor Mary.Indeed, knowing what I knew, I did not think he was, and I was very much afraid that we should have great difficulty in persuading her to give Hilary up, whatever we might succeed in proving against him.For, like many other sweet and apparently yielding women, Mary could be even more obstinate than people of stronger judgment.We found Mr.Marshall in his dressing gown, writing in an armchair by the window.He looked very ill, and in reply to our reproaches for getting up at all, he said, with a weary sort of smile, that he was not going to turn invalid until he was forced to do so.But he consented to our sending for a doctor, although he peremptorily refused to let us communicate with his wife.To be continued.Gibbons\u2019 toothache gum, price 15 cents aggis : 5 pe ARE NOT a Pur.-

Columbia pawnbroker against a firm of Winnipeg jewellers for making up a cheap line of goods stamped 14 and 18 karat when they were in reality only 8 or 9 karat, suggests the necessity for an alteration in the Dominion law on that particular subject.In the action alluded to it was shown that the simple stamp gives no szcurity of value unless accompanied by the name of some responsible maker, and unless so accompanied may be more often relied upon as being prima facie evidence of deceit than proof of superior quality.Now every purchaser of jewellery is not an expert as to the quality of the metal, so that in any trade, except with some firm of known probity, he is likely to feel at @ disadvantage.The stamp may be there, indicating a high quality, but if that means nothing, what has he to rely upon ?A practical jeweller, by means of touchstone tests, may be able to tell the karat, approximately, but when dealing with fancy goods he would in nine cases out of tén be better satlsfied to rely upon some certified assay mark.The present go-as-you-please system of jewelry manufacture is unfair to reputable firms, whose name and word may be relied upon and is equally unfair to the public.It is easy to see that the stcre- Keeper who sets no value upon his reputation, and who is satisfied to deal in light karat goods, stamped eightoen for purposes of deception, is able to compete unfairly with the man whose word is his bond.The practice in other countries in this respect is more favorable to the public and also to respectable dealers.In France and Germany it is a fraud punishable by law, to sell as gold any metal of less quality than fourteen karat.Anything lower can only be described as hase gold.Tn England there are government assay of£ces, established at different trade centres, where the quality of gold is tested and stamped on the metal, along with a goverment stamp testifying toits genuineness, to imitate which is one of the most serious offences known to the law.No one is forced to have their goods marked, but the added value given by certainty of their quality is usually sufficient inducement to manufacturers to send them for assay.The government stamp only guarantees the piece on which it is impressed hence \u2018examination of an English watch case will show the stamp on every separate piece of which it is composed.The 9k or other such mark on an English made chain is for the same reason of no more value than a similar stamp on a Canadian article, the only guarantee in such case being the honesty of the maker or the reputation of the dealer.Gentlemen's chains, of fine quality, are, for this reason, stamped on every separate link, It would be a very simple matter to establish a government assay office in each provincial capital and the fees for stamping would in every case cover the cost of such establishment.With a security of this kind those in future who would .buy 8 karat goods thinking they were 18 would only have themselves to blame.PRINCE GEORGE of Wales, heir to the British throne has been mace Duke of New York.Of Dukes of York, independently of those who also bore the title of Albany with it conjointly, there have been seven, to wit, Edmund Plantagenet, fifth son of Edward IIL; Edward, his son, killed at Agincourt; Richard, his nephew slain at \u2018Wakefield; Edward, son of Richard afterwards King Edward IV.; Richard, his son, one of the princes said to have been murdered in the Tower; Henry, afterwards the great King Henry VIII, and Charles Stuart, afterwards Charles I.THE American papers have decided that the Democratic ticket for the Presidential race will in all probability be Cleveland and Campbell.This will be a pair hard to beat, Mr.Campbell is the ex-governor of Ohio, who was defeated last fall by Major McKinley.He is a very strong man in his state and will bring much western support to Cleveland.Meanwhile the Republican papers are all at sea over the silent man from Maine.The Harrison men are apprehensive lest he should sweep the convention by à coup; while the anti-Harrison element are looking eagerly for a sign from him that he will consent to lead the opposition hosts, Blaine, in the meantime, goes calmly on his way.There is an impression abroad that he will not be greatly disappointed should the anti-Harrison men stampede the national convention to him.After his letter of last March withdrawing from the contest he could not openly countenance any efforts to promote his candidacy; but were the nomination tendered him it is hardly possible that he would decline, This is the thought that these days haunts the inmate of the White House, who has set his heart THE SUMMER EXODUS.We are accustomed to write and speak of \u201cThe Exodus\u201d in a very doleful strain, because under that name we understand the constant stream of emigration that is depleting the country, and particularly this province, of so many useful citizens, There is, however, another movement of population that is sufficient in numbers to be called an exodus that generally gives rise to nothing but pleasurable anticipations.The time for this exodus, for it is an annual one, is close at hand.We refer to the migration of city folk to pleasant spots in the surrounding country, which usually commence with the opening of suitable weather.Those sufficiently well-to-do, and able to spend a few months in absolute holiday, are now beginning to canvas the respective merits of different summer resorts, and fortunately there are some to suit every variety of taste and almost every purse, so that it is only those whose occupation will not allow of a holiday at all that need be debarred.There is a pleasure in the trackless woods and enjoyment on the lakes and rivers that needs no long and expensive railway journey to reach from our city.Witha gun, a fishing rod, a carpet bag and a few dollars, a citizen of Montreal can pass a fortnight that will linger long on his memory, and enjoy a freedom of which the citizen of the old world places can have no conception.Even the man whose means are limited and whose family is large, can find within easy reach, and at prices that need not make any great wound on his capital, a place of rest and refreshment, where the ring of the telephone is unknown, bulls can be avoided by keeping on the right side of the fence, and one with his gun in hand would look ona bear as a beast, who must be prevented from sneaking off with his winter overcoat.For the large class who would be glad to give their families the \u2018advantage of a few months in she country, \u2018but are obliged to stick to the shop or office, the railway companies appear to be a little blind to their own interest in not making sufficient provision; still there are charming spots to be found, which the man whose hours of business are not too long, can reach comfortably after his day\u2019s work, and easily be back at the helm in time for next day\u2019s toil.For those whose time and purse will allow them to enjoy their own leisure, there is no end to choice.On the shores of the ocean, or the great lakes and rivers, secluded spots in the forest and even on the tops of mountains, great hotels are built for their accommodation, where all the ameneties of social life are de rigeur, and where the menu might tempt an anchorite, In the discussion on the grant to the Laprairie Post-ofice, Mr.Brown, member for Chatenuguay, said that if all the post- offices in the Province of Quebec with a like revenue to Laprairie were similarly honored it would take $2,016,000 to go around.Facts like these arc unanswerable arguments, THE GRIEVOUS \u2018OFFENCE OF CARD-PLAYING.We cannot exactly understand the under lying principle on which the new code of laws against gambling is based.Why should a quiet game of cards, which may be played between friends without evena thought of stakes, or, as is generally the case, for merely nominal stakes, be made an unpardonable offence, while a fortune may be wagered, in a perfectly legal way, on the result of a horse races?We know there are many nobler ways of passing through life than in an everlasting round of cut, shuffle and deal; but if a man has a penchant that way, we fail to see that the gratification of it renders him a desperate offender against public morality.The old couplet of Compounding for sins they are inclined to, By damning those they have no mind to.must hold good on many of the zealous persons who pretend to be so earnest in suppressing their neighbor\u2019s faults, The absurdity of devising laws so far in advance of public opinion that no man dares to incur the ridicule of attempting to enforce them is shown by this very statute against card-playing on cars or steamboats.For fourteen years it has nominally been the law of the land; but it has never been enforced.Even on Government: railways it has remained a dead-letter.What object can there be in enacting laws that are not of the slightest use in inflencing public action or even in moulding public opinion ?Among our own people such purposeless statutes bring the whole body of the law into contempt and disrepute.Among foreigners they only cause us to be regarded as a nation of fanatics and Pharisees.REMOVING SNOW FROM SIDEWALKS, It is reported that the Road department is going to undertake to keep the sidewalks clear of snow in the winter.For this purpose à tax of 10c per square foot of the sidewalk in front of each property is to be paid by proprietors for this purpose.Will some one go into the reckoning and correct our figures for the appal- ing amount of the sum total quite bewilders us.The total length of the city streets is about 150 miles, but as there are generally two sides to each street it gives us 300 miles of sidewalk to keep clear.Brought to feet this makes a lineal run of 1,584,000 feet, and as the sidewalks will average a width of six feet, the total number of square feet to be kept clear is then 9,504,- 000.At ten cents per square foot, that \u2018makes the nice little annual boodle of $950,400.If there is not something wrong either in the statement or the calculation, the asylums will need enlarging h ne te arnan Q cheaper to leave the snow alone and present each citizen with a pair of snowshoes.Oh, for streets like Venice, paved with canal water, that never want cleaning and serve the treble purpose of road.sewer and water-works.WHAT PEOPLE ARE TALKING ABOUT, The Price of Admission to this Column is Brevity.[To ensure insertion

is?\u201cTRUE BLUE,\u201d XoT POLITICALLY, MoNTREAL, May 26, 1892, A SUGGESTION FOR THE GOVERNMENT.Eprror HeraLD: Sir\u2014Apropos of Mr.Fisher's letter on compulsory voting, which everyone who reads it must see is well and carefully thought out, I would venture to suggest as a possible means of getting everyone to vote, an extention of the plan on which the Conservative campaigns are worked.Instead of the very partial and haphazard way in which voters are induced to come to the polls, let there be a graduated scale of payment, say $10 apiece for the day laborer who votes, $20 for the fireman, and soon up to a railway charter or subsidy, a timber limit mining lease, or an increased tax for the great folk.Candidates of the opposition side might be compelled to pay their own voters while money for Government supporters could be applied through a committee organized by a Cabinet Minister administering funds provided by contractors, monopolists, etc.The expenses on the Government side could be calculated after the election, when some new contracts could be given out with the expense amount added to the list of the work.You will see, too, that there is little novelty in this plan\u2014he would be a genius indeed who could teach the present Government anything in the way of briberv\u2014the system now in vogue is, as the evidence before Parliament and in the columns of the Globe shows, identical in principle with that which I suggest, but awkwardly manipulated.Mine, however, would be lawful and above board, while the Government's gives rise to lying, perjury and theft.In the sub-rosa administration of money by Sir Adolphe, Sir Hee- tor and others, there is no certainty that the money all goes to the electors; indeed, it is generally believed that the voters get only a small portion of that intended for them, and that the bulk is salted away in New England, California, New York and elsewhere.My plan ensures each elector getting his whack, so to speak, and no Knight, Baronet, M.P., or other dignitary can pocket the money intended for his district, aud declare that he has spent it on his constituency.What do you think of this plan yourself, Sir?M.8 Montreal, May 26.The Fight For a Senatorship.Waterloo Advertiser: Hon.G.B.Baker, J sdge Foster and Richard White, Esq., of the Montreal Gazette are in the rmnning for the vacant Senatorship for this district.Premier Abbott's friendship is Mr.Baker's eat card.The Judge, however, has ral- ied the support of nearly all the leading Tory politicians in the Townships and is making a bold push for the place.His chief reliance is Mr.Ives, who may have influence enough to control senatorship, but who cannot lift his own Cabinet boom as high as his coachman can raise himself by his boot straps.Mr.Richard White is of course an outsider, but he has the backing of a great newspaper organ of the Government, and that is not to be sneezed at.For our part we should like to see a popular election for the place between Mr.Baker and the Judge, in which the distinguished candidates should be obliged to do their own stump speaking at joint public meetings, That would be an election contest with all the latent elements of a humoz- ous campaign.Epps\u2019s Cocoa\u2014Gratefuland Comforting, \u201cBy a thorough knowledge of the natural laws which govern the operations of digestion

was not in the House.Mr.Sproule\u2014I said \u2018\u2018 very little in the House.\u201d Mr.Lister\u2014I'was here from the beginning to the present time, with the exception of three or four davs.Mr.Sproule\u2014The hon.gentleman was absent time after time, and his motions were allowed to stand.Mr.Lister\u2014 During Sir John Macdonald\u2019s funeral my court was sitting\u2014 Mr.Sproule\u2014You are à year out.Mr, Lister\u2014And the only time I was absent was a few days at the time of the funeral.Mr.Sproule\u2014You are far out.Mr.Lister\u2014I mean Mr.Mackenzie's

member who has a right to address remarks to you.I draw my inference from the action of the Minister of Public Works.He will not give his reasons for the action he has taken, and he is calling upon his supporters to vote this money without giving any reasons, and I reassert that any Minister who does that, without giving reasons, is not treating his supporters as reasonable beings, but as puppets, The Chairman (Mr.Denison)\u2014I cannot quite agree with the hon.member.He stated the gentlemen behind the Government benches were machines.Mr.Mulock\u2014You had better know yout facts first.I said the Minister though they were machines, The Chairman (Mr.Denison)-Of course, if you say you did not state that, it is different.Mr.Mulock\u2014I said the Minister seemed to think they were machines.Mr, Bowell-\u2014You said they were machines.Mr.Mulock\u2014I did not.Mr.Bowell -They are not as much machines ag you are.You have been driven to-night like a pack of dogs.~ Pointed But True.Ottawa Journal (Ind.) : The Conservative press simply has not brains enough to see that honesty and independence would strengthen both the press and the party.In the past, other means have succeeded, but we venture to hope that the new generation of voters which is coming on the scene must be handled by new and more creditable tactics.The Toronto Globe's revelations of the campaign methods of 1887 should be enough to make Canadians who are not office seekers nor hunters for patronage blush for shame and determine that so far as they can help a new leaf shall be turned in our politics.We were promised this last year by some of the Conservative leaders.They have failed to keep their promise.Salisbury\u2019s Blunder.Springfield Republican : Lord Salisbury\u2019s half-way protectionist speech meets with no sympathetic response in England.The Tory organs do not like it, and say so openly.The manufacturers and workingmen, for whom it was especially intended, like it as little, and the politicians seem to look upon it as a blunder from their standpoint., Some of the Tory newspapers tell Salisbury plainly that he is in a funk over the unsatisfactory condition of trade, and that he has suggested a remedy which is worse than the disease.England, they say, has made her greatest advance in wealth and commercial superiority under free trade, and is to-day the most prosperous country in Europe, if not in the world, and there can be no going back on the policy which has made her this, Politically, this last departure of Salisbury seems to be a blunder, and he probably will not stand by it a great while as a campaign issue, Sir Oliver Forgiven.Hamilton Times : The privilege of having Sir prefixed to one\u2019s name has been somewhat cheapened of late years, and there will be no little surprise at Mr.Mowat\u2019s acceptance of the title, for the traditions of Canadian Liberalism are rather opposed to such distinctions.However, Mr.Mowat is too old and too good a man to be spoiled by the transformation into \u2018\u2018 Sir Oliver,\u201d and if he is pleased with his new name let us all be pleased and wish him joy for it.Twenty years\u2019 successful management of the affairs of the great Province of Ontario entitles a man to indulgence in one harmless weak ness.We forgive you, Sir Oliver, but don\u2019t et it occur again.THE AMERICAN DOCTORS (29

bright enough, but it became very cloudy about noon and rain threatened all the afternoon, though little fell.The track was heavy in spite of being drained, rolled and harrowed for several hours to get into shape.The events of the day were as follows : First race\u2014Don purse; $350; for all ages; three-quarters of a mile\u2014J.E.Seagram\u2019s ch ¢ Furnish, 3, by Faustus\u2014Alforita, 110

Furnish, 7 and 7 to 5; Cottondale, 3 and 3 to 5; Logan, 3 to 5, Furnish got away first and led to the stretch, when Cot- tondale overtook and passed, but his lead was for a moment.Furnish had the inside track and succeeded in finishing a bare neck in the lead.Second race\u2014The Breeder stakes for 3.year-olds, 13 miles: M.J.Dal\u2019s (Gloster, N.J.) ch ¢ Jardine 3 by Albert\u2014Curtolina

the léad.Japonica came into the stretch at breakneck speed, and also, passed Martello, who was four lengths behind her at the finish.Third race\u2014Royal Canadian hurdle handicap ; $500; a mile and a

a good second, and Sam Morse close at his heels.At the first jumpthethree horses were very close on each other.Before the gecond jump was reached there was a change, however, and Alvin was in second place, Bob Thomas leading and Pat.Oakley third.At the last jump Repartee again came into second place and held it to the end.The race was finished in a procession, with five lengths between the first three and the rest nowhere.Fobbh race\u2014Juvenile Scurry,8400; for 2.W.Hendries b.f.Shining Light by Strathspey, Beautiful Star- 110 (Doan) 1st; A.A.Gates b.c.Yon-Yon- son by Koscinacko-Annie

centered in this race.Sports looked to Meg Dinmont to decide the question whether her half brother Ajax, the sensational $10,000 colt and speedy winner of the race at Brooklyn, was really of good stock, or a freak in the very ordinary stock.But either her breed-is-bad or the track was not in condition, for though she got an excellent start, she was not heard from after the quarter.At the quarter Yon-Yonson came to the fore, followed closely by Shining Light.When the half was reached Yon-Yonson was leading by a length, Shining Light was in second\u201d place and coming fast.Doane, the jockey of Shining Light, very wisely hugged the outside rail all the way round the course.There the track was not cut up, and this is no doubt the reason that she won.The finish was interestingly close.Yon-Yonson was a bare neck behind the winner going under the wire, Sismok held the third place, but four lengths behind.Yifth yace-~The El Padro handicap, $1,000, $200 to second horse, $100 to

of the afternoon.Only eight- of seventeen horses entered, went to the post.The start was bad.After half a dozen attempts, Ely was left at the post and Addie B.lost half a dozen lengths.Redfel- low led, with the Belie of Orange close behind, and the rest much of a heap.Tactician was to the front for a moment when the mile was reached, but gave way to Penelon, while Redfellow went behind.In front of the grand stand the race was à good one, for Belle of Orange came up and made a great struggle for first, while Cancan had a place sure and tried for something better.Fenelon finished first by the skin of his teeth, Belle Orange second, Cancan third.Sixth race\u2014Hunters flat race, handicap, 8400.$30 to second, $25 to third, 14 miles; Dr.A.Smith\u2019?b Athol, 6, 1st.; G.G.Watkins ch g &

yesterday morning at the Graves- end track about Judge Morrow\u2019s defeat in the St.James hotel stakes.To a number of trainers who were present at the track he said that he had arranged with Taral to ride the horse, and he fully expected him ta do so, as Mr.M.-F.Dwyer hadJ.McLaughlin and W.Fitzpatrick toride Longstreet and Raceland respectively, Mr.Morris said that when he went back to the scale, after informing Covington that Taral would ride Judge Morrow, he was much surprised when the.weigher informed him that Taral had weighed out to ride Longstreet.; \u201c It was then too late, he said, \u201c\u2018 to secure another jockey to fill Taral\u2019s place.I did not want to disappreciate Major Covington by wishing Taral to ride in his stead, but I feared that Covington would have to carr too much dead weight.I shall regret all the days of my life that I did not scratch out and will never forgive myself for not doing so,\u201d YACHTING.St.Lawrence Club Hold Their Opening Race

match on Saturday between the Cornwall and Shamrock teams is exciting great interest in this city.The Shamrocks will play the same team that defeated Montreal a week ago, and have been putting in steady practice all week.The Cornwall team will have the same team that has brought the championship to the \u2018Factory Town\u201d so often and they have also been in constant practice.They will

place on Saturday, the 28th.THE GAME IN THB STATES.Last week\u2019s New York Clipper contains the following : The opening game of the series for the intercollegiate championship at lacrosse was contested at tho grounds of the St, George Cricket Club, Hoboken.N.J., on Saturday afternoon, May 14.Rain and consequent slippery condition of the ficld proved a detriment to the work of the players engaged, nevertheless a game that interested the large crowd present was witnessed.\"The teams that opened the season was those of Stevens Institute and Johns Hopkins University of Baltimoro, Md., and a well contested match terminated in thedefeat of the visitors by the close score of four goals to three.Cyrus C.Miller, of the Staten Island Athletic club, was the rcferce and the judges were Doyle, New York A.C., and Killough, Lorril- lard À.C.The formation of tho teams was as follows: Stevens.Positions.ohns Hopkins.Coyne.\u2026.voususs oal.\u2026\u2026.benne er ss Mitchell H.F.Cunta.Point,.Tom

Victory for St.John's School Over the Collegiate Institute, The St.John's school is proud of its vie- tory over the Montreal Collegiate institute at cricket, the score being for the St.John's boys 136 runs against the institute\u2019s 76.It was about as nice a display of cricket as schoolboys could well put up.In the first innings the Montreal Collegiate institute's scores were 39 and 37 for seven wickets, while the St.John\u2019s school very soon managed to roll up 93 and 43.Rev.Mr.French feels proud of the showing made by the boys, and will be right.It is expected that the school will play a match with the \u201c\u2018non-descripts\u201d of the McGill University club on Saturday next.TENNIS.McGill College Tennis Courts Informally Opened.It had been the intention of the McGIll University Tennis ciub to have a formal opening of their grounds this season, but on account of the very unsatisfactory condition of the grounds the opening was postponed from day to day.After frequent disappointments it was at last decided that the formal opening should be abandoned.So the courts were opened for practice yes- tereay afternoon to members.Only one court was in use, and a few members enjoyed a game.The cinder court will not be ready for occupation for a few days yet.It is an innovation at McGill and will no doubt be popular with those members who like a \u201cfast\u201d game.The Donalda court was marked off, but none of the fairer sex availed themselves of the opportunity of a game.GENERAL SPORTING.A GOOD OPINION OF CORBETT.John L.Sullivan expresses an opinion of Corbett as follows: \u201cI will not so underestimate Corbett\u2019s ability as to say that he will be an easy mark for me.Of course I expect to win, but in Corbett I will, I think, find one of the very best men whom I have yet been up against.From what I can learn, both through others and from my own observations, I have come to the conclusion that Corbett is a gentleman and a very fair fighter.I see much to admire in him.His ambition to obtain the championship is a laudable one, and one that does him credit.I am sorry he is an American.I would rather fight a foreigner for the title, At any rate the best man will win.The Corbett battle will be my last appearance in the ring\u2014that is, to a finish.\u201d ARCHIBALD SAILED HER IN.Report of the Ganonoque races in the Brockville Recorder : In the forenoon C.E.Archibald, of Montreal, a promising young canoeist, took out the new sailing canoe which Gilbert built during the winter to his order, and tested her against Sauve\u2019s old Canuck, with Ford Jones at the stick.The new craft was not in shape, however, for work, carrying too much canvas without reefing points, and capsized just outside the mouth of the Gan- anoque river.Archibald stuck to her like a little man, however, got her up finally, and won liberal applause by sailing her in, Another big relay bicycle race between New York and Chicago is talked of, to take place in the fall,

five of his men are said to have resisted the temptation to take the bawbees, Over in London the Slavin-Jackson mill is awakening considerable interest, says the New York Press.The reports, however, are very conflicting, one making Jackson favorite and the other having him suffering with his legs.Slavin is said to be in splendid condition.\u201cParson\u201d Davies is confident that Jackson will win and that Choynski can defeat any man in _ England.The probabilities are that the \u2018Parson\u201d is away off.Slavin in condition should win the mill, and there is more than one heavyweight in England who can stop Choynski, STILL EXCITES INTEREST, The Reymond Shooting Affair in Paris Much Talked About.Paris, May 26.\u2014Interest has not waned in the Reymond -Delaporte

transpired, however, that immediately after the terrible scene in the apartment in Rue DuRocher he went to the home of his mother, where he remained in seclusion until yesterday, when he went before

Constructed.In the discussion in the House of Com- mous on the Farnham post office, Mr Lester said :\u2014Previous to 1890, Missisquoi was represented by a Liberal, and shortly before the elections of 1891 it was circulated in that county that the Government proposed to construct public buildings in the town of Farnham, and the present member (Mr.Baker) represented that his influence would be used with the Government to get public buildings for the town\u2014about the same procedure as was followed in the town of Welland.The Government organs there represented that Farnham was in want of public buildings, and that if it expected to get public buildings it must send a member to support the Government ; in other words, although the town claimed to be justly entitled to them, still it would not get what it was justly entitled to unless it sent to Parliament a supporter of the Government, We have a small town of 300 families, or 1,520 souls altogether, and with a postal revenue of something like $1,900, getting public buildings, while they are denied to larger places simply because the people of Missisquoi returned Mr.Baker, a supporter of the Government, instead of the gentleman who opposed him, and who was a member up to 1891.Now, sir, it has been charged over and over again on this side.and but faintly contradicted on the other side, that these public buildings are being used for the purpose of bribing the constituencies; and appeal to hon.gentlemen on the Government side of the House if lt is not in itself a suspicious circumstance that this small town on the eve of an election should be promised by oue of the candidates running there that public puildings would be procured for that town if he were elected, and that immediately after his election the construction of these buildings has commenced.Mr, Foster\u2014Do you know that such a promise was made ?Mr.Lister\u2014I know it was made in the county.I know that in West Farnham, before the election took place, it was said all over the county that if Mr.Baker was elected they would get public building.Mc.Foster\u2014Did Mr.Baker say so?Mr.Lister\u2014He allowed his friends to say so, the press of the county said so, and subsequent events showed that his friends had good reasons for muking that promise, The Laprairie Post Office Job.Col.O\u2019Brien, Conservative, in the House of Commons : I have looked through the estimates for this year, and I do not find for any province any new grant for an office of this kind.I trust we may understand from this fact that it is not the intention of the Government to continue to spend money in this exceedingly unfair way, by giving grants to small places which ere certaihly not entitled to them, while if this system is to be pursued, the claims of a great many other places, which are much better entitled to public buildings, should be recognized.The system is a very bad one in every respect.It is a bad one as a means of corrupting con- dnd aa pacs rrupting con- J absolute waste of public money, and it is @ bad one as establishing \u201cvery unfair principles between the different provinces of this country.It brings the legislation of this House into contempt, as does every species of legislation not founded on right.herefore, as regards opposition to this grant as a matter of principle, hon.gentlemen opposite are right, and I trust this House will set its face against such grants in future.The Chicoutimi Vacancy, It is said that Mr: Savard, M.P.for Chicoutimi, who was unseated by the Supreme Court, will be the Government candidate, and will be re-elected by accla« mation, as Mr.Laurier will not oppose him, Mr.Savard was elected as an Oppositionist in 1891, defeating Sir Adolphe P, Caron.He has since flopped.An Organ for Mr.Ouimet,

Spent, From yesterday's Toronto Globe: Four candidates contested Charlevoix at the Federal election of 1887.Mr.Cimon was the regular Liberal and Dr.C.H.A.Clement the regular Tory candidate.The other two were Mr.J.A.Hamel and Mr.J.A.Tremblay.The Reptile Fund did pretty well for Dr.Clement.First and foremost a sum of $1,000 was provided on Nov.24, 1886, to carry on a protest against Mr.Joseph Morin, the Mercier candidate elected to the.Quebec Legislature that fall.The petitioner, nominally one Bouchard, dropped the case, and the $1,000 was turned in for use in the Federal election.On January 25 Sir Adolphe gave an order for $300 in favor of Mr.Tarte, who saw that the money was sent to the county.On February 7 Sir Adolphe gave an order {or 5800, This $800 was paid to tw: | sons, Dr.Clement getting £500 and Mr.dj.S.Per- rault, a local lawyer, 8300.They gave receipts.À day or two later Sir Hector wrote an undated note ordering the payment of $750 to Dr.Clement, Mr.Perrault and Mr.Rouillard.He did not sign the note but Mr.L.J.Demers, who drew the money, did, by way of receipt.The intention was to hand the 8750 to Mr.Tarte for distribution among the three persons named in the order, but Mr.Tar te wrote to Mr.McGreevey instructing him to ive it to Mr.Demers.That is how Mr.emers came to sign for it.On February 11 a sum of $150 was sent to the county by mail.It was sent to Dr.Clement's committee, but no receipt appears to have heen abtained.Altogether, therefore, the Reptile fund planted $3,000 in Charlevoix, yet Dr.Clement was beaten.We have received the following letter from Mr.Joncas, M.P.for Gaspe : \u201cI notice in your issue of the 21st inst.one of my letters addressed to Mr.McGreevy on the 12th March, 1887.This letter is genuine, I have written it, and I have received the $200 mentioned in it.There is nothing there to be ashamed of.But you make a mistake ora voluntary lic when you assert that I have received $1,300 from what you call the \u2018reptile fund\u2019 for my election of 1887.\u201c\u201c(1) Mr.Bisaillon.whose name is mentioned in your article, never came to Gaspe to work in any of my elections, and I did not receive from him one single dollar.(2) If Mr.Chasse has received $200 for the Gagpe election in 1887, I knew, and know yet, nothing about it.Mr.Chasse never came to Gaspe to work in any of my elections.\u2018\u201c (3) If on March the 8th Sir Adolphe Caron gave on Mr.McGreevy an order for $400 it was not, and is not yet, to my knowledge.; \u201cIf you have any notion of the British fair play trust you will publish this rectification of the facts contained in your issue of the 21st inst., relating to my election of 1887.Ido not give to the letters you publish in the Globe more importance than they really have, but 1 object to being misrepresented.\u201d Mr.Joncas\u2019 denials amount to nothing more thin an assurance that, excepting with regard to the $200 which he himself received from Mr.McGreevy, he had no knowledge of money being supplied from the Reptile Fund to promote his election in Gaspe.But the fact remains that the other sums mentioned by the Globe were sent to the country.It was never said that Mr.Joncas himself received them.On Jan.30, 1887, Sir Hector gave an order for $500 to be paid to Mr.Bisaillon; on March 3\u2014this election was held after the others\u2014Sir Adolphe gave an order for $200 in favor of Mr.Chasse, and on March 8 another for 8400, making $1,100 inall exclusive of the amount sent direct to Mr.Joncas.In each case it was distinctly stated that the money was for use in Gaspe.We shall be glad to show Mr.Joncas photographs of the original orders, with the receipts attached, if he cares to see them.He can then settle the matter with Sir Hector and Sir Adolphe, Mr.Chasse and Mr.Bisaillon.Whether he had any knowledge of the despatch of the $1,100 or not, the two Ministers certainly knew all about it, and that, after all, is the main point so far as the public is concerned.TWO FISHERMEN DROWNED, Their Empty Boat Drifts Home and Telis the Sad Tale.SPECIAL TO THE HERALD.St.Joux, N.B., May 26.\u2014An overturned boat drifting on the shore of Red Head Beach, four miles from the city, was the first intelligence of the sad fate of two fishermen, Thos.Bean and Wm.Hanlon, who left their home at Red Head yesterday morning, to fish for lobsters in the Bay of Fundy.They failed to return last night, and their families concluded they had met with an accident.The empty boat, which, strange to say, drifted within a short distance of their home, told the silent though conclusive tale of their sad fate.Bean leaves a wife and 11 children.Hanlon was unmarried.The bodies have not been recovered.re How are you?\u201d \u201cNicely, Thank You,\u201d \u2018Thank

influence of the great storm in the states to the south was felt here in a modified degree.There was a sharp frost on Wednesday, night, with strong winds on Thursday, moderating on Friday, but still cold and raw.There was norain to speak of accompanying the storm here, only a light sleet falling for a few minutes Thursday morning, \u2018The wind was too high for seedingon Thursday and Friday, buttherewas no moisture to stop farm work.except on Wednesday morning, in this district.No damage to seeded fields is reported from the high winds of Thursday, and as the ground likely that any harm would come from the wind, such as is oceasioned in dry weather.Wheat will show some increase in the area sown in Manitoba as a whole, though there will perhaps be a decrease in some low districts.In the territories there will be a large increase in the wheat area.We stated a week ago that wheat seeding was practically completed, except in some late sections.Further reports have shown this to be the case.Though the spring has been somewhat backward, we regard the outlook as more favorable than usual, owing to abundant moisture.\u2014 Winnipeg Commercial, AMERICAN MARKETS, Closing Prices for

decrease of 1,600,000 in French stocks when a million increase was expected, caused a little flurry and some good buying by our best local traders.The weather had some influence in unsettling things in general.Reports were nnmerous of showers and rains here and there, while there were equally as numerous reports of sunshine and favorable weather.The weather map showed one unfavorable condition, that was low barometer in British Columbia.The strength in provisions had a tendency to intimidate shorts trading in other products.The only change in foreign markets was 4d lower for PITCHER'S CASTORIA CHILDREN CR was well packed from recent rains, it is not |: Liverpool.Some very successful speculations are long wheat, but \u2018we are inclined to think that on anything like favorable weather their prospects for immediate profits are not very flattering.Orn was very strong the greater portion of Session; increased receipts, however, are Shocking the demand for lower grades and sample lots, and the supply will be fully equal to the demand.A good all round demand for hog product continues ; some of our largest packers favoring the long side.Ye would advise caution, $oweven, in buy- Ing on any of these sharp advances.A few ays of large receipts of hogs might materially change the complexion of the market.Chicago Gossip, Messrs.Lamson Bros.& Co.report the following over

to be due to the practise indulged in by some salesmen of attending only once in two weeks.There was the same partiality shown for white goods as at the two previous meetings, the competition being

Superint«nd a Course of Lectures\u2014Plan of the Course and Subjects to- Be Followed\u2014Professor Cox Appointed Secretary.The subject of University Extension in Canada has for a long time attracted the attention of the leading educationalists in the Dominion.Towards the accomplishment of this object nothing of a definite nature, however, had been done until a general committee of the whole Dominion met at Toronto last October, and again in January, for the purpose of discussing the project.\u2018The result of the conference was, Bac the scheme was relegated to the provincial universities to act in the matter.And as a result, a joint board of representatives has been formed from McGill university and Bishop's college, Lennoxville, to superintend a course of lectures and classes pfor English-speaking audiences in the Province of Quebec.The Rev.Abbe Laflamme on behalf of Laval university will superintend the French- speaking portion of the population, He is at present actively moving in the matter before the Council of Education at Quebec, and hopes that they will decide to tak esteps in connection with the scheme.The object of the university extension scheme is to provide the means of higher education for persons of all classes, and of both sexes, who are en- aged in the regular occupations of life.fo attain this object the lectures in connection with the scheme will be organized upon the general lines which have worked out successfully in England for over 20 years.Centres will be arranged by the joint board in different localities desiring to take up the scheme in each of which local committees will have to be formed.Their duties will be to attend to the financial part and also to select the lectures they would wish to hear and the subjects they would like to hear discussed.These selections will have to be approved of by the Universities.The subjects of the lectures that the Universities expect to provide are connected with: I.English Language and Literature.IL History and Archæology.III, Logic, Mental and Moral Philosophy, and Political Science.IV.Chemistry and its applications.V.Astronomy.VI.Electricity and other branches of Physical Science.VIL Botany and Zoology, Animal and Vegetable Physiology.VIIL Geology and Mineralogy.In order to make the teaching at the tame time attractive and thorough a special method will be followed: 1.The courses consist of ten weekly lectures, each lecture occupying an hour.2.For about an hour preceding or following each lecture a class is held for those students who wish to study the subject more thoroughly, The teaching in the class ig conversational, and its object is to enable the lecturer to answer questions or solve difficulties which have occurred to students and to give advice as to text-books and other means of studying the subject.The ten lectures and classes, which may be given in the.three months before or three months after Christmas, form & continuous course on one subject.3.In order to enable students to follow the lecture readily and to carry away the substance of it, a printed syllabus in pamphlet form is prepared beforehand by the lecturer for the use of the syllabus.4.Questions (printed in the syllabus) are set upon each lecture.Those who desire to answer the questions write their answers at home during the week, and forward them to the lecturer for correction and comment.5.At the end of the course an examination is held by the lecturer, and another examiner appointed for the purpose by the joint-board of the universities.The examination is not compulsory.Only those are admitted to it who have attended the lectures and classes to the satisfaction of the lecturer, and have done such an amount of weekly Joper-work as the lecturer may have required.A list of the candidates who have satisfied the lecturer and examiner is published, the names being arranged in alphabetical order.The list also indicates those who are recommended both by the lecturer und examiner for special distinction.Certificates of passing and of distinction are granted, based upon (1) the lecturer\u2019s report of the weekly work, (2) the final examination, It will be seen that this system is adapted at the same time to persons who desire merely a general acquaintance.with the subjects taught and to students who are anxious to make a more thorough study.The majority of the courses in the English system have been given in the evening, as the fundamental idea throughout has been education for busy people.The audiences have included persons drawn from all ranks of society and of the widest diversity of previous education and training.The payment to the joint board for a complete course of ten lectures and classes, with examination, is $150, In cases where a lecturer from a distance is chosen, or much apparatus is used, travelling expenses and the cost of hiring apparatus will Pe an extra charge.Professor J.Cox, of McGill university, has been appointed secretary to the joint board, and in conversation with a HERALD reporter, said that when it was desired to establish a course of lectures some prominent person of the community should be asked to call a public meeting.The universities would Le only too glad to send seme one thoroughly conversant with the scheme to lay the details of it before the meeting, A local committee could then be formed, and a guarantee fund sufficient to cover the ex- mses of & course should be raised.The ocal committee would also undertake all responsibility for hire of rooms, lighting, printing and sale of tickets, etc.; and would fix the price of tickets according to the size and class of audience expected, with a view to making the lectures self-supporting, It is understood that applications have already come in from several centres, and a beginning of the practical working of the scheme is expected for October.Diplomas will not be given by the universities, but certificates will be awarded to all who complete the course.To Discuss Early Closing.\"The special committee appointed to amend the by-laws for the early closing of places where liquor is sold will meet this atternoon.Ald.Prefontaine, the chairman of the committee, says the representatives of the Licensed Victuallers Association, Dominion Alliance and the Grocers Association have been notitied and will doubtless be there in numbers.\u201cThe Grand Old Lady.\u201d Referring to the Queen\u2019s birthday, the Pall Mall Gazette, on the Queen\u2019s birthday, said : \u201cWe hear always of the Grand Old Man, and sometimes forget the Grand Old Lady, who, in spite of her burden of years, and burden of sorrows, performs scrupulously the political duties of her great position, and has always recognized her duty of observing the constitutional wishes of her subjects.\u201d The St.James\u2019 Gazette asks what republic can compare with England.The most successful of all them has been convulsed by a needless civil war, the result of ignorance, of abundance of bragging, and of bad temper.\u201cNobody,\u201d says the Gazette, \u2018 mentions & republicin Englond as either possible or desirable.Any republican sentiment that bas existed is vanishing, chiefly owing to the evidence of vulgarity and corruption in rares Loyalty now only asks royalty to decent, to be fairly industrious and well-intentioned.ONE OF QUEBEC'S HOLIDAYS.Ascension Day and the Manner in Which it \u2018 Was Celebrated.Yesterday being Ascension day, was generally observed as a holiday throughout the city.The banks, City hall, courts of justice, and nearly all the large places of business were closed.Comparatively few people left the city by train, but owing to the beautiful weather quite a nuinber of people patronized the Inclined railway in order to enjoy the exhilarating breeze of the mountain.Several parties indulged in drives round the mountain, to Longue Point and Lachine, but in the city everything was remarkably quiet.In the morning a great number of children attended St.Patrick\u2019s church to receive First Communion.The mass, which was at 7 o'clock, was said by the Rev.J.J.Toupin, and holy communion was distributed both by the pastor and by Rev.J.Toupin, who considers it always a high honor to perform this most holy work.Rev.M.Callaghan, director of the children, of course, was in attendance, and under his special instruction the children were faultless in the carrying out of the smallest detail.The boys attired in black clothes with white ribbon around their arms and a badge of the Sacred Haart on their breast formed a pleasing contrast to the white dressed and whtt veiled girte, and when they marched up the ifferent aisles, in conformity with the instructions given them by their director,Rev.M.Callaghan, the sight was impressive, and will not be forgotten by those who thronged the church to see the celebration.Some very select church airs were sung by the larger pupils of St.Patrick\u2019s Academy.Among the many soloists whose voices were heard was noticed the beautiful soprano of Miss Lottie Kearns, and the contralto of Miss M.Sullivan, The mass being over, acts of thanksriving were read ina loud clear voice and the usual prayers for the intentions of the Sovercign Pontiff said.In the evening at 7.30 p.m.the church was even more crowded than in the morning.The cdifice.- was beautifully decorated and the altar finely illuminated with various colored lights.Never in the annals of this church has so\u2019 large a choir been found to do honor to the occasion, as this year.It was composed of 300 voices hailing from all the different schools and academies, principally the St.Lawrence school, Archambault Academy and the St.Patrick\u2019s Female Academy.Professor Fowler presided at the organ.The effect of the singing was heightened considerably by a large orchestra.Father Latra- verse acted as choir director.The lady soloists were Miss M.Sullivan, Miss Lottie Kearns, Miss Mary Drum, and Miss M.Moriarty.Rev.Father Luke Callaghan sang the hymn to the Sacred Heart and \u201cTantum Ergo,\u201d which tended to make the music among the best ever heard in St.Patrick\u2019s Church.The Rev.M.Callaghan spoke twice from the pulpit, once on confirmation, and again on baptismal promises.On the next Sunday the childreh will be received into.the Holy Scapular Society, and will be asked to take the pledge of total abstinence for life.Over 225 children were confirmed yesterday.At the Church of the Gesu about 30 boys made their First Communion.The Rector, Father H.Hudon, celebrated mass, and Archbishop Fabre gave confirmation.At 3.30 1n the afternoon vespers and the renewal of baptismal vows took place.Canadian Horses in England.The English demand for Canadian horses seems to be developing into greater importance every day.Last year Canada shipped 1,900 horses to Great Britain, and this year it is expected the exports will reach 4,000.The horses wanted are single drivers, carriage horses and heavy cart horses, and on these grades profits as high as 25 per cent.are being realized.\u2018There seems to be a future for the Canadian horse in England, They Think the Telegraph Too Slow.An action taken bya Montreal firm against one of the telegraph companies furnishes a significant commentary on the vagaries of the telegraph operator.On the 14th January last a New York merchant telegraphed to his Montreal correspondent to come on at once to New York.This message took twenty-four hours to get here, as it was not delivered until the evening of the 15th.The Montrealer then telegraphed to New York and his message took 194 hours to get there, while the reply sent from New York has not got here yet.Under these circumstances the Montreal firm feel themselves justified in demanding damages, and have resolved that in future, when sending a message that needs immediate delivery, they will stick a three cent stamp on it and drop it in the post.The M.S.R.Has No Exclusive Right.The Electric Railways Special committee meet to-day to consider the tenders for the construction of electric railways in the city.Up to the present the public have been under the impression that none of the new companies who are prepared to build electric roads in the city could do so where the City Passenger railway are already running.This question is, however, now settled by the emphatic opinion of Mr.Ethier, city attorney, who says that the charter granted to the City Passenger company does not give them a monopoly over the streets where they run to the exclusion ot outsiders.The City Passenger Railway Co.maintain that their charter comprises this privilege and they seem confident that a majority of the committee will endorse this view, Messrs.Mainwaring and Bickerdike are quite sure of having their charters granted for their respective projects on Bleury and St.James streets, and the probabilities are that both these short lines will be running by September or October next.Mr.W.S.Williams, who put in such a comprehensive tender on behalf of the New York syndicate, is in town and will remain for a few days pending the deliberations of the Electric Railway committee and the council, Young Canadian Artists.The patrons of art in Montreal will be glad to learn that their endeavors in the way of affording facilities for the development of latent genius lave met with some reward.Students who have had the benefit of attending the classes of the Art Association of Montreal for some time past have become imbued with the idea of studying from nature, in place of reproducing with ncil and paint-brush the works of the ac- Frowledged masters.Three of the most prominent art students in Montreal will leave on Wednesday next for Glen Fulton, Que., the artists\u2019 paradise of Canada, where they will spend about three months in sketching the natural beauties of the country.-This will, at least, have the effect of showing Montrealers that they néed not travel hundreds of miles to enjoy lovely scenery during their short summer or autumn vacations.Within seventy or eighty miles from this city, by the Canadian Pacific railway, holiday-seekers can enjoy all that goes to make up a thoroughly enjoyable trip.The country referred to is comparatively unknown to the citizens of Montreal, although within such easy access.When the trio of budding artists, who propose to scour the country put on canvass the scenic beauties it affords, then our citizens will find out that they have a lovely resort close at home.The three young artists who will devote the next three months to this work are Mr.James Sonne, son of the well known sailmaker, Mr.Thos.Sonne and winner of the first rize of the Antique class school; Duncan cMillan, winner of the Life class competition, and Samuel Robertson, a prominent pupil of the Academy class.These will be joined about the first of July by Messrs.James Graham and Ben Radford, who promise to give a number of sketches of scenes in and around Glen Sutton, CAUGHT AT WORK Another Plucky Arrest By Night Watchman Burns, Two Men Arrested While in the Act of Breaking Into Maedonald\u2019s Confectionery Store on Beaver Hall Hill Shortly After Midnight This Morning-They are Young Men and Americans.Shortly after midnight, while Watchman Burns was making his rounds up Beaver Hall Hill, he noticed two men trying to get into the confectionery store of Mr.Thomas McDonald, 12 Beaver Hall Hill.Thinking they were not employed in the store Burns decided to watch them and for a while hid in one of the numerous doorways which abound in that locality, He soon noticed one of the men look around, aud then, walking in the doorway, produced a key which he placed in the lock.He got no further, for Burns made a rush and collared both of them.Burns after a short talk and the persuasive powerof arevolver, succeeded in getting them to No.6 police station.On being questioned they gave their names as Nathan Gladdeys, 19 years, plumber, no residence, from the United States, and Ed.Brown, 19 years, engraver, no residence, from the United States.On Sergeant Sullivan searching them he found that Brown had $1.35 in money, a Knights of Pythias badge, some old coins, baggage check No.7,735 of the Passumpsic Railroad and about 12 to 25 poker chips.Gladdeys had five keys of different pattern, 6 cents, à small file, à pair of scissors, a watch chain and two knives.Sergeant Sullivan thinks they are old hands at the business, as, when he ques tioned them, they refused to answer, saying that it was not necessary to give him any information, as they would be brought before the magistrate in the morning.Both of them had false moustaches on.This is the fifth time within the year that attempts have been made to break into Macdonald\u2019s store, and a number of men are now doing *\u2018time\u201d for these burglaries.In connection with this arrest it may be stated that some five weeks ago the police authorities here were asked for information by the authorities of Rochester, N.Y., regarding two supposed crooks who had been arrested there and who gave their names as Brown and Geddes.These suspects had a letter from Montreal written on Richelieu hotel paper, and signed \u201cPaddy McBride.\u201d This letter contained a lot of information concerning some Montrealers well known to the police, and it closed by stating that T\u2014 and H\u2014 were so closely followed by a body guard that they could do no work.These are supposed by the police to be the same parties now under arrest here, PERSONALS, W.P.Molesworth, Toronto, is a gnest at the Balmoral.W.8.Moore, of Vancouver, is registered at the Windsor.Robt.Ward, of

the Montreal Foundling and Infant nursery was held yesterday afternoon in the nursery\u2019s new home on Argyle avenue.Rev.Jas.Barclay presided.~The attendance was disappointingly small.The treasurer's report, presented by Mrs.C.C.Campbell, showed receipts for the year of $1,930.05 from collections, donations and annual subscriptions, and $896.25 from\u2019 admission fees and board money.The disbursements of $2,745.04, therefore, left a balance of $83.26.Receipts from the building fund were $4,718.93; and froin this source the disbursements were $4,108, balance $610.93.The Secretary\u2019s report dealt specially with the advantages of the new home, but complained of one remaining defect\u2014bad ventilation.It spoke also of the regretted resignation of Miss Dalby and the almost indispensable services of her successor, Miss Ridont.The provision of uniforms for the mothers was the most noticeable change adopted since last year, The attending physicians\u2019 report was the most interesting.It stated that 135 children had Deen received last year.These with the 37 infant inmates of the previous year made a total 172 charges now under the institution\u2019s care.The majority of these were from the Montreal Maternity Home and the Western Hospital.The majority, too, were the deserted offspring of drunken, destitute or invalid parents.Out of the 172, 79 or 45 per cent.had died.Fifty-one had died under one month, 17 under two, 6 under three, and 5 over 3 months.It was impossible to wet-nurse them all; they bad to be arlificially fed.The majority of deaths were from atrophy and gastro-intestinal disorders due to lack of natural food.The following were clected the committee of management: Mesdames Colin McArthur, Thomas Pringle, C.C.Campbell, E.D.Lacy, Thos.Montgomery, A.Rhodes, J.S.Hall, W.F.Torrance, ¥.B.McNamee, Misses S.Smith and Miss H.E.Hall, Mrs.Sawyer, Mrs.Evans, and Mrs.Jones.With the gentlemen\u2019s advisory committee,

Bauset Making a Mark.Mr.Rene Bauset, who has so ably filled the position of acting city clerk for the past few weeks, is to be made assistant to Mr.L.O.David, the newly appointed city clerk, so a well-founded rumor says.This is in recognition of the valuable services he has .rendercd to the council and the committees, for which he has acted as secretary.Mr, Bauset's clear enunciation when reading reports in council, whether in English or French, has created such a favorable impression amongst a number of the aldermen that several of them were disposed to run him for the city clerkship.The only stumbling block in the way was Mr.Bauset\u2019s youth.\u201cHe is just 10 years too young,\u201d said one of his ardent supporters.Mr, Gosselin is to be made deputy city clerk, and will be entrusted with the routine business of the department that he has conducted so long.He Had No Less Than Seven Names, Under the modest title of Paul Dupuy, a writer upon the editorial staff of a small French newspaper in this city, Alexandre Hypolite Hercule Joseph Paul Roch Bouet.Marquis de Salleles, died and was buried in December last.Yesterday his true name and titles were disclosed by Mr.M.Schwob, vice consul of France, to enable La Marquise to establish her status of widowhood, It is understood that at- one time the late Marquis was a large landed proprietor, hut previous to his departure from France dissipated his ancestral estates by plunging on the race track.He was a broken man when he discarded his old French title of nobility and buried himself alive as an obscure newspaper writer, and his decease in poor circumstances renders him an object of pity to those who knew him in his altered fortunes.To Discuss an Invitation, To-night at 8.30 p.m.the officers of the Montreal militia corps will meet in the Vie- toria Rifles Armory to consider the sending of an invitation to the 7th Regiment of New York to visit the city on Dominion Day.The 7th is the crack corps of New York.The acceptance of the invitation would enable the Montreal corps to organize things on a grander scale and make up for the unfulfilled program of the Queen's Birthday.Dominion Day occurs on a Friday this year.The following Monday is the 4th of July, so that if the battalion were to leave New York on Thursday evening, it could participate in the military movements on Friday, take a day off on Saturday.attend a church parade on Sunday and be in good trim to celebrate the \u201c\u2018glorious Fourth\u201d on Monday.Dr.Wesley Mills on Education.The mecting of the Royal Society of Canada will be held this year in Ottawa, commencing Tuesday, the 31st., and will be in \u2018session about four days.On Tuesday afternoon T.Wesley Mills, M.A., M.D., of this city, will read a paper before section Bof the society.This paper will be on Hibernation in Animals.This popular scientist has been for the past two years a close observer of the habits of man animals which have hitherto been neglected, That his paper will give information on the subject of hibernation undreamt of by observers of nature, anyone who knows the ability of the doctor will admit.On Tuesday evening Dr.Mills will deliver a public address in the Ottawa Normal school on the subject of *\u201c The Natural or Scientific Method in Education and Science in Schools.\u201d Itis a well known fact among those interested in the subject of education, that the leeturer\u2019s views on the subject of education in general are advanced ones.He claims that education should be based on nature.This has been ovorlooked in the system now in vogue.There is no doubt but that the educationalists of the day will be given some surprises during the course of the lecture.At the eommencement exercises of the University of New Brunswick, on Thursday, June 3, Dr.Mills will give an address to the graduating class,on Heredity.Detectives Instead of Police.Last night Cote St.Antoine was without a police force.Not that the residents of that enterprising suburb were left entirely without protection, for the officers of a Montreal Detective bureau were in charge of the \u201cCote\u201d Police station, but the old force was non est, as yesterday Chief Kerr, and Constables McLennan and Lee were notified by the town\u2019s Police committee that after 6 o\u2019clock last evening their services would not be required.On the part of the Police committee this resolve was come to at a private meeting held on Wednesday night.The cause ofthis wholesale dismissal,it is alleged, is because tlie police were not sufficiently viligant.During the past few months a large number of robberies have occurred in the Cote.Some premises were entered, as many as four different times, yet no clue to the burglars could be obtained.Then the services of the Detective agency was secured, and they, it is claimed, found the police were not doing their duty as it should be done.It must be understood, however, that not even the slightest hint of a criminal suspicion is charged against any of the three officers.Chief Kerr had occupied his position for several years, Constable Lee had a service of three years, but Constable McLennan was only appointed last fall.It is understood that the detectives will look after the peace and well-being of the town until a new force is appointed.WHEN VISITING NEW YORK GO TO The COSMOPOLITAN HOTEL, WEST BROADWAY AND CHAMBERS STREET.Under new management, thoroughly renovated and refurnished.Rooms $1 per day ang upwards.ÆUROPEAN PLAN, C.F.WILDEY, Proprietor, UNWORTHY OF NEWSPAPER MENTION.City Volunteers Who Went Far Beyond the Call of the Uniform.The ease with which an international complication could be got up, if the enterprising correspondents of American papers could be believed, would be little short of marvellous.No doubt it has already been flashed all over the States that a mass of Canadian soldiery tore down the flag of the United States in this city, and our worthy neighbors across the line are doubtless as much exercised over the supposed outrage as were our own citizens over the report that the Connecticut militia had insisted upon hauling down the British ensign hoisted upon a New Brunswick schooner.The truth in both cases is practically similar.It is true that two drunken individuals, who happened to wear the uniform of an honorable corps, are accused of insisting upon having the stars and stripes hauled down off a small store, but to give this drunken freak any international significance would be to give it an importance far beyond its real worth.At all events Lieut.-Colenel Cole, of the M.G.A., has called upon United States Consul General Knapp to assure him that although the silly act may have been performed by men wearing his uniform it is entirely discountenanced both by himself and by all members of the corps.Consul Knapp readily recognized the absurdity of magnifying the trivial act of two drunken men into an international insult and promised to send an official report of the occurrence to the authorities at Washington, which will effectually counteract the exaggerated accounts telegraphed tothe United States by sensation-mongers on the local press.A LADY SULLIVAN.The Police Have a Hard Fight With a Female.\u2018\u201c No, Mr.Sullivan{would hardly be in it, I think.\u201d That was the opinion of Sergeant Leggett, of No.4 Police station, Her name was Helen Poitras.She was pugilistically built, pugilistically inclined, weighed seven pounds short of 300 and when she gathered a chunk of building stone iu either hand and swore that she could mot only whip creation, but also intended to run the Bon Pasteur convent to suit her own sweet will, the good nuns and other inmates of that celebrated institution left her severely alone, and for the time being she was monarch of all she surveyed.The scene was the yard of the big female reformatory at the corner of Sherbrooke and St.Dominique streets ; the time was 7 o'clock yesterday afternoon, and for upwards of an hour she kept her word and held full charge of both the inmates and building.About six days ago Helen Poitras became a self-invited inmate of the institution as she was young, and, to believe the police, without doubt the strongest woman | in Montreal, and as a consequence she was put to work in the laundries.Yesterday she in some way managed.to obtain liquor, after which there happened what is described above.\"When she began pelting the nuns and inmates with the building ma- terisl - the police of No: 4 were sent for.Alone they were unable to hold, not to speak of arresting her.: Then a carter named Racette, who had been called to drive her to the station, was called on for assistance, He tried to catch the Amazon's feet.She doubled the unfortunate man up with a terrifis kick in the stomach, and the police say the man is seriously hurt.Finally with the aid of some workmen Helen was got in the hack, with the exception of her feet, which she defiantly shoved through the window, and in this way she arrived at the station.There she challenged Sergeant Leggett to more or less mortal combat.He thought discretion the better part of valor and declined.Then by promising to let her go at dark she did what the combined force of the station was unable to make her do\u2014walked quietly into a cell.Once there the sergeant forgot his promise and Helen will appear before the Recorder this morning, when if there, will not be a scene the police are no prophets.CITY AMUSEMENTS.\u201cAmorita\u201d at the Queen\u2019s Theatre\u2014Attrac tions Elsewhere.The house that assembled to greet the first performance of \u2018\u2018Armorita\u201d was unfortunately not a large ome, but, as the sparkling little opera unfolded its beauties, it became a very appreciative and enthusiastic one, and literally set the stamp of its approval upon it.The fault of the company, as a whole, is want of balance.The male voices in choruses and concerted arts are completely overpowered.Mr, Mayer, who takes - the part of the Moor,is exception strong compared with the balance of the small _ performers, If there had been more like him, or if he had been heard more often, he: would have restored the balance.There is plenty of comic work in the course of the piece, which is made the most of by Tom Martin as Signor, and R.Mansfield as Patruchio.Lottie Gilman as Amorita, is well suited to the part and her voice is fitted to make the most of it, the only fault being heard occasionally in the upper notes.Julia Calhoun as Angelo Meluotie, won unbounded applause by her singing.As the lover of the stutely Amorita, Angelo was too petite.Undeniably pretty in make up, but a girlish prettiness that made pathos into bathos.The dancing of Affie and May Warner brought down the house, with whom the skirt dance seems to be in favor.À rose by any other name will smell as sweet and a can-can by any other | name is just as risque.AT THE ROYAL, Go-Won-Go-Moliawk will close her engagement at the Royal with performances to-day and to-morrow.I.E.Kidders comedy, \u2018\u2018 Bewitched,\u201d will be presented at the Royal next weck.The favorable manner of its reception in all the larger cities is a guarantee that- the performance \u2018will be worthy the full support which it will receive here.The Royal should be filled next week, \u2018\u2018 THE FIVE O'CLOCK TEA.\u201d It was a small but sclect audience tifat assembled in.the.Fraser Institute last evening to witness the production of a fairy cantata, \u2018\u201c Queen Iloveyou's Five o'clock Tea.\u201d The various parts were exceedingly well sustained by pupils of Miss Tovey, the chorus singing especially being very good.A miscellaneous musical pro- rain followed the cantata, the various items being well rendered.The duet, \u2018\u201c No, Sir,\u201d by Miss M.Silverman and Master A.Fenwick, and the quartette by Madames Felch and Tovey and Messrs, Mulock and Jackson, were particularly worth hearing, Remembering Their Dead Comrades, Decoration day, 1892, will be commem- morated here by the
