afternoon to listen to addresses by Morrison, Swift, Herbert N.Casson and other \u201c\u201cSocialist- Anarchists,\u201d as they call themselves.After hearing the speeches the crowd marched to the State House, where Swift and Casson were made a delegation to visit Governor Greenhalge.They demanded, as they themselves put it, that employment should be given to the crowd which they led.The Governor intimated to Swift and Casson that he would do all in his power to help the unemployed, and that he had no doubt that the Legislature would do something for the men.He consented to come out and address the crowd.He said to the people that personally he would do all he could ahd that he would recommend action by the Legislature.Still, he said the Legislature had no power to give work to the unemployed except it had money to pay them, and except the works on which they should be employed were necessary for the general good.He insisted that the first duty of every citizen was obedience to the laws.1f the laws were not right it was the fault of the people of Massachusetts and not of the Governor or the Legislature.He said they were simply there to express the will of the people who sent them as they understood it.Aîter this Swift and Casson, followed by a crowd of unemployed, went to lay their petition, which was couched in the terms of a demand, before the Senate and House of Representatives.On their return from the chamber, Swift ascended to one of little side galleries and delivered a speech that sounded strangely out of place in the history of the old hall.\u201cWe will clean out the State House,\u201d he cried out, *\u2018if we don\u2019t get what we want.\u201d The rabble, for such it was, accepted the declaration with enthusiasm.Private Secretary Thomas was standing pear and at the enunciation mentioned repaired hastily to the Governor and reported the state of affairs.Governor (ireenhalge grabbed his hat and headed for the scene of action.Meanwhile, however, Swift had finished and had ascended the stairs and stood outside the Chamber*door awaiting Representative Mollen, whom he desired to introduce the petition.The Governor met him.\u201cDid you state that you would clean out the State House?\u201d asked the Governor.Swift cowered.\u201cI did,\u201d he half muttered, \u201cbut I stated that we would do it vith the ballot.\u201d This was absolutely un- rue.\u201cYou wish to qualify it in that way ?\u201d continued His Excellency.\u201cYes,\u201d replied the agitator.\u201cWell,\u201d said the Governor, clinching his hands, \u201cIdo not like that language, sir, aud it won°t be tolerated.I warn youthat Iwill hold you personally responsible.\u201d Swift's bravado was all gone.He quietly sipped out of sight and mingled with the crowd that surged about.Previous to this episode Governor Green- halge has summoned Representative Mellen his presence.\u201cMr.Mellen,\u201d said he, I want you to be on the side of the law and

a small tan, a 9 69 Bue St Jacques.The hotel is The e in the rear of the College of France.ramet ress of the place, a woman A Alabresi, and two lodgers, were Lesterday afternoon two strangers, one a £ Om gave his name as Rairique, inquir- oo partments.They were shown a ie on the second floor, which theyldeclared Le them.They engaged the room.A Y spent à short time in -the room and es qui remarking casually, as they ed, that t : i crim hey would be back in the They did no ° t return, howey dprietress, who had become slightly ne of her new lodgers, went to their sage to see if they had brought any lu ~ The hotel keeper was alarmed by wine a bomb lying on a shelf in the room, Out waiting to examine it she ran sent for the @ the roo i 3 iy m and immediately ofr ile waitin cers, Madam.g for the coming of the | lodges of e Calabresi told two of h her discovery, and in company With of thy them went to the room.As the door e room was | UDlo.: as opened there was a terri Plosion, which made a room wreck of the room and everything in it.Every window-pane in the house was blown info atoms.The landlady and the two lodgers with her were badly injured.Had they had time to enter the room they would have been killed.Notwithstanding the early hour the news of the outrage spread and the streets in the vicinity were soon swarming with people.The greatest excitement prevailed.The police arrived promptly and a cordon was established throughout the hotel, through which nobody, save officials, were allowed to pass.There are three theorics to account i0r the explosion.One is that the bomb had a time fuse attached to it, though so far as can be learned no smoke was seen ascending anywhere in the vicinity of the bomb.Another is that the bomb contaiped some acid solution that soaked through cotton, or other material until it reached the explosive bottom of the infernal machine.The third theory is that the opening of the door destroyed the equilibrium of the bomb, which, toppling over, fell to the floor, exploding by concussion.As yet the police have not the slightest clue to the identity of the miscreants who placed the bomb in the room.The excitement caused by this outrage was added to when it was ascertained this forenoon that an attempt had been made to blow up or at least injure the buildings of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on the Quai d'Orsay.A metal tube was found lying at the entrance of the office, which it was suspected was loaded with dynamite.The tube was turned over to the police, who will have its contents examined.A bomb siniilar to the one that exploded in the hotel at No.69 Rue St.Jacques, was discovered in another small hofel at 67 Faubourg St.Martin.Fortunately the latter bomb was found and safely removed before any damage had been done.It is believed, and all the evidence thus far secured points to the conclusion that the two men who caused the outrage at the first mentioned hotel were carrying outa plot to cause explosions in hotels in different parts of the city.A close search will be made of all the hotels, large and small, to see if the men have left bombs in any others.The hotels are already sufferers from the scare caused by the Anarchists, and it is probable that the latest demonstration of the willingness of the Anarchists to spread the ¢ propaganda by the act\u201d will cause a further falling off in their receipts.The police are at their wits end to discover the perpetrators of the Rue St.Jacques outrage.The people are beginning to lose confidence in the authorities being able to put an end to anarchist crimes.It was only yesterday that domiciliary visits were made to one hnndred and fifty houses occupied by Anarchists, and the net result was the rescue of a lot of literature, but no explosives.This fact, taken in connection with this moru- ing\u2019s explosion, is thought by the general public to indicate that the police are powerless to prevent the Anarchists from manufacturing and using explosives.It has transpired that Police Commissary Dresch received a letter signed \u201cRal vally,\u201d announcing that the writer was about to commit suicide at the Hotel du Faubourg St.Martin.The police commis: sary went to the place, expecting that he would find the body of a dead man.He opened the door of the room containing the bomb and discovered it.The whole thing, it is thought, was a plot to kill M.Dresch, but the trap failed to work, the bomb not exploding.: M.Dresch is the officer who arrested Ravachol.M.Girard, the chief of the municipal laboratory, has made a proposal to explode the bomb with electricity in the place where it was found in order to study the effects of the explosion.The residents of the house have all left, fearing that the experiment might be carried out while they were in it.M.Lepine, the prefect of police, declines to assent to the proposal until he consults with M.Raynal, Minister \u2018of Interior.M.Pelonio, the police commissary in the Sorbonne district in which the hotel in Rue St.Jacques is located, also received a letter similar to the one received by M.Dresch but he did not go to the hotel until after the explosfon occurred.Madame Calabresi is dying from the effects of injuries she sustained.She received a terrible wound in the stomach.M.Raynal referred the proposal of M.Girard to the Cabinet and a council was held at the Elysee Palace to consider the matter.The result was that M.Girard was authorized to carry out the experiment by placing a dynamite cartridge on each side of the bomb and exploding them by means of an electric battery.When everything was ready for the explosion every window of the surrounding houses was packed with spectators.The police having driven the people out of the street in the immediate vicinity, the Police Prefect Lepine gave the order to turn the current and there was a sudden detonation like the explosion of a cannon.The room was found completely wrecked and filled with the odor of picric acid.The projectiles, hobnails and bits of zinc were scattered all over.M, Girard says that the bomb was evidently splendidly made.FRANCO-RUSSIAN DISPUTE.The Formerir\u2019s Protectionist Attitude Displeases the Latter.BERLIN, Feb.20.\u2014The Frankfort Zeit- ung is authority for the statement that Russia and France have exchanged notes respecting the duties imposed on Russian grain imported into France.Russia, the paper says, while disclaiming any right to interfere with the internal affairs of another power declared that she must protect Russian interests and if the French duties on Russian Grain resulted in a derangement ot the Russian export trade she must and would notify France of the termination of the Franco-Russian commercial treaty.France, in reply, said that she must respond to the popular feeling for protection, but the duties on Russian grain would be limited to the minimum provided for by the new tariff.This reply, according The Zeitung, was not satisfactory to Russia, who replied that, notwithstanding its receipt, she would continue to adhere to her previously expressed views on the subject.Henry Irving\u2019s Generosity.Toronto,

MORNING, FEBRUARY 21, 1894.SACRIFICED THE BILL Mr.Gladstone Withdraws the Employers\u2019 Liability Measure.LORDS ACTION MADE IT NECESSARY, r\u2014\u2014 The Premiers Speech in Support of the Action\u2014He Requests That no Further Time be Wasted Debating the Subject\u2014Mr.Balfour\u2019s Remarks on the Discharge of the Bill-The Vote.7 LoxpoN, Feb.20.\u2014Shortly after the formal opening of the House of Commons to-day, Mr.Gladstone arose and moved the discharge of the order of the day, which was the consideration of the amendments that had been made by the House of Lords to the Employers\u2019 Liability bill.Mr.Gladstone\u2019s motion was greeted with loud cheers by the supporters of the Government.Mr.Gladstone said that he deeply regretted to have to make such a motion and that the Government had been obliged to make so many similar motions since they showed that there was a lamentable degree of divergence between the two branches of Legislation.The Government, however, must confront the facts before them, acting in conformity with what they believe to be the best interests of the people and the dignity of the position of the House of Conimons.Substantially, the difference between the two houses on the Employers\u2019 Liability bill was the question of contracting \u2014out of the provision of the act.There was a good maxim that \u2018Half a loaf was better than no bread.\u201d If they were dealing with a bill in parts which were completely separabie, and there was a question whether they could accept a limited bill, offering it to the country rather than to see the whole of our labors absolutely wrecked, the position might be different.But this is not a case of that description.In our view the chief amendment made by the House of Lords cannot be considered apart from the general working of the whole frame of the bill.Mr.Gladstone added : \u201cUsing a strong phrase to make my meaning clear, it tends to poison the working of the bill and to seriously compromise the position of working people in the face of their employers.Therefore, I hope this amendment will be rejected by a decisive majority.\u201d At this point Mr.Gladstone was interrupted by cheers from the members on the Government benches.Continuing, Mr.Gladstone said : \u201cThe workingmen are directly, almost exclusively, interested in the bill.What are their sentiments concerning the amendment?The Opposition says that the workingmen are divided on the subject.The existing relations between some workmen and the Trades Insurance Funds have been used as an argument why the contracting-out principle should be allowed to vitiate the whole bill.These workmen have been told for instance that the great railway companies will stop subscribing to the insurance fund if contracting-out should be prohibited.The Government has received assurances from the official representatives of every workman\u2019s organization that they did not dread such result.Their dominant fear was rather that the bill would be nullified by allowing contracting-out of the act.\u2019 Mr.Gladstone went over the oft-repeated arguments on the necessity of maintaining the bill in its integrity, and concluded by asking the House of Commons not to waste time in prolonged re-debating of thesubject.A.J.Balfour, the Conservative leader in the House, held that the bill contained many valuable reforms quite independent of the constructing out clause.If the Government believed in these, why, he asked, did desire to throw them overboard altogether ?Jos.Chamberlain, the Unionist leader, said if the House of Commons was decided not to receive any amendments at all from the House of Lords, there would always be an opportunity for collision, if the Govern- mont so desired.The policy of the Government in the present instance wes decidedly unsound.Mr.Chamberlain declared he was perfectly certain that the people were not going to rise in wrath against the Upper House because it reserved liberty of action to one per cent.of the workingmen.The debate developed no surprise nor disappointment for any except those who had given undue regard to the statement in The Daily Chronicle this morning.If that statement, which emanated from the Radical group of the National Liberal Club, had been verified, it could safely have been predicted that the Cabinet had resolved upon the immediate dissolution of the House of Commons, with the reform of the House of Lords as the sole pivot of the elections.Mr.Gladstone\u2019s known strong exceptional bias, however, ought to have kept from him the suspicion of springing upon the House a motion which implied the right of the Commons to ignore the amendments of the House of Lords.8 Mr.Gladstone followed the usual procedure in simply moving that the bill be discharged.Every part of the House was packed and the space outside crowded.Although experienced members expected no departure from the regular \u201cprocedure of business Liberal interest was stimulated by the hope of an oratorical deliverance from Mr.Gladstone against the House of Lords.The effect of his short, restrained speech therefore was rather chilling.Mr.Balfour, on the contrary, livened up the House, especially when in touching the real core of the question, he accused the Government of using the bill as a weapon of attack upon the peers.The Conservatives did not take part in the division.Mr.Walter McLaren, Radical, said that he would divide the House if he could get a teller with him, as he did not think the whole responsibility rested upon the House of Lords.Mr.Seton Karr, Conservative, offered to join with him as teller.Thereupon a division was taken.The motion made by Mr.Gladstone bas adopted by 225 to 6.This evening the House rejected seriatim the majority of the Lords\u2019 amendments to the Parish Councils bill.MR.GLADSTONR\u2019S CONDITION.Edmund Yates in his cable letter says : Mr.Gladstone may or may not resign office before the year is out, but this much is certain : He will even more than heretofore be an absentee from Parliament.He has come back with signs of increasing age thick upon him.He does not look at all well, and his failing of sight and hearing are more painfully palpable than they ever have been.Last week he was rarely in the House after dinner, and they say he does not intend to be in his place at night except on special occasions.If it were not for the sake of acting as a figure-head, there is little question that he would resign immediately.He cannot hope to see Home Rule passed, and it is his political ambition to do so.WANT A $10,000 BONUS.KINGSTON, SMiITH\u2019S FALLS AND OTTAWA RAILWAY AFTER IT.The Matter Discussed at a Mass Meeting in Merrickville\u2014Mr, A.T.Drummond Speaks.(Special to The Herald.) MERRICKVILLE, Feb.20.\u2014Last evening, after routine business of the Council, there Was à mass meeting of the citizens to discuss the advisability of granting $10,000 as a bonus to the Kingston, Smith\u2019s Falls and Ottawa Railroad in course of construction.Mr.W.H.McCrea Was appointed secretary with the Rev.J.Mills in the chair.The Secretary read the by-law it was proposed to submit to the people for their sanction or otherwise on the 24th day of March, 1894.Mr.H.Merrick, ex-M.P.P., gave a lengthy address, pointing out the .advantages to be derived to his mind and as per his observations while travelling around.Being a fluent speaker he readily explained points contained in the proposed by-law to the satisfaction of all and his opinions were loudly applauded.Mr.P.Kyle likened one railway in a place to giving any one person a monopoly, as they are very apt to take advantage of it.** What we want,\u201d he said, \u201cis competition in railroad service, as we have good deposits of peat, iron, and nickel, to be developed.Let capitalists know we have competitive railroads and immense advantages for manufacture, and we, the present inhabitants, will never know we are paying taxes on $10,000.\u201d He then gave figures to show in one or two articles of use how people could save their taxes.He was loudly applauded also.: Mr.A.T.Drummond, of Montreal, was then introduced by the Chairman.He is one of the principal promoters of the road.Mr.Drummond said that when people had any objections he always liked to hear them, as it was a great deal easier to get at the trouble, if any, and rectify it.He had on exhibition maps to explain the railway systems of Ontario and connections his road would make and the influence it would have.Montrealers considered western Ontario a great centre of industry and took care to be well connected with it, and if it was such to Montreal, it was surely of some advantage to Merrickville.Mr.Drummond has certainly made a good impression on people, and it is expected the by-law will carry without a dissenting vote.THE INQUEST OPENED.Doctors Testify in the Case of Mrs, England\u2014An Autopsy Probable.The death of Mrs, (Dr.) England was commented upon in avery portion of the city yesterday when The Herald was read.There seems to be ao longer any doubt but that the deceasr V's death was directly due to poisoning.idrs.England, it appears, was in the habit of taking occasionally small quantities ¢f sub-nitrate of bismuth and on Saturday week (the 10th) she asked her husband for some of the medicine.Having none in the surgery he sent to Dart and Co.for two ounces.They had none in stock so \u2019phoned Kerry, Watson and Co.for two peunds of bismuth.Messrs.Dent sent two ounces to Dr.England, who av once gave his wife thirty-five grains.It was soon discovered that a mistake had been made and several medical men were called, It Was all to no purpose ; Mrs.England died, as reported on Mouday.Coroner McMahon opened the inquest yesterday afternoon.Only medical evidence was taken, viz., that of Messrs.Drs.Stewart, Finlay, W.S.England, and the deceased husband, F.R.England, all of whom stated that the symptoms from which the deceased had died pointed strongly to poisoning.Professor Johnston, who made the autopsy, stated that on examination he found tnere were sufficient reasons to show that death was from natural causes.In view of this contradictory scientific evidence the Coroner adjourned the enquete until next Wednesday afternoon, and wired Attorney- General Casgrain for leave to have an analysis of the stomach made at once.SENATOR HOWLAN APPOINTED.Lieut.-Governor of Prince Edward Islañd.(Special to The Herald.) Orrawa, Feb.20.\u2014Senator Howlan was appointed to-day Lieutenant-Governor of Prince Edward Island, in place of Hon.Mr.Carvell, deceased.Senator Howlan\u2019s name comes before the public periodically in connection with the Prince Edward Island subway scheme.AMATEUR BICYCLISTS.They Are Divided in Two Classes by the L, A.W, LOUISVILLE, Feb, 20.\u2014The League of American Wheelmen will meet next year at Denver.It was decided by a vote of 127 to 54 to exclude colored men from the League.Mr.Luscombe, the new president, stated that his first act was to re-appoint Howard E.Raymond as chairman of the new racing board.Mr.Raymond then proceeded to discuss some proposed changes bearing upon racing rules.An amendment was adopted making two classes of amateurs as suggested by Mr.Raymond.Class A consists of amateurs, pure and simple, who cannot race for a prize valued at more than §50.Class B consists of amateurs who may race for all other prizes not cash and whose expenses may be paid by cycle managers or agents.The assembly finished its work at a late hour to-night and adiourned sine die.The evening session was principally devoted to considering the cases of suspended riders, few of which were re-instated, the amateur rule being closely adhered to.Civil Court Cases, The most interesting case in the Civil Courts yesterday was that of John Try- Davies vs.E.W.Wilson and Co., which came up before Judge Davidson.Mr.Davies claims $3,500 from the defendants for having cancelled his engagement as their representative here.Mr.Davies was examined yesterday.His evidence was to the effect that his engagement was for two years ; that in consequence of this engagement he resigned his position as Secretary and Manager of the Clearing House for the Montreal Stock Exchange ; that his dismissal after one year was unjustified, and that he is entitled to recover the amount now claimed by him.An action for $1,000 has been taken against the City by D.Gallery because a switch line of the Montreal Street Railway has been placed so near the curb that there is no room left for vehicles to stand.French Corn Tax Bill.Paris, Feb.20.\u2014The Chamber of Deputies to-day rejected the sliding scale of the \u201ccorn tax bill by a vote of 411 to 103.NO RIGHT OF APPEAL Supreme Court and the Manitoba School Case.THREE JUDGES AGAINST, TWO FOR.The Points Submitted te the Court by the Dominion Government\u2014 Chief Justice Strong Very Decidedly Opposed to the Right of the Manitoba Catholics to Appeal Against the School Law.{Special to The Herald.] Orrawa, Feb.20.\u2014The Supreme Court to-day expressed the opinion by a majority : of three to two that the Roman Catholic minority of Manitoba has no right of appeal to the Governor-General-in-Council against the Manitoba School act of 1890.The Court room was filled with lawyers and spectators, among them Hon, R.W.Scott, Solicitor-General Curran, Premier Blair, of New Brunswick, Messrs.Hazen and McLeod, M.P.\u2019s of St.John, N.B.There were six questions referred to the Court by the Federal Cabinet : 1.Is the appeal referred to in the said memorials and petitions, and asserted thereby, such an appeal as is admissible by subsection 3 of section 93 of the British North American act, 1867, or by sub-section 2 of section 22 of the Manitoba act, 33 Victoria (1870), chapter 3 Canada?2.Arve the grounds set forth in the petitions and memorials such as may be subject of appeal under the authorities of the subsections above referred to, or either of them ?3.Do the decisions of the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council in the cases of Barrett vs.The City of Winnipeg and Logan vs.The Citv of Winnipeg, dispose of or conclude the application for redress based on the contention that the rights of tne Roman Catholic minority, which acceded to them after the union, under the statues of the Province, have been interfered with by the two statues of 1890 complained of in the said petitions and memorials?4.Does sub-section 3 of section 93 of the British North America Act, 1867, apply to Manitoba?5.Has His Excellency the Governor-Gen- eral-in-Council, power to make the declarations or remedial orders which are asked for in the said memorials and petitions, assuming the material facts to be as stated therein, or has His Excellency the Governor- General-in-Council any other jurisdiction in the premises?6.Did the acts of Manitoba relating to education, passed prior to the session of 1890, confer on or continue to the minority a \u2018\u201c\u2018right or privilege in relation to education\u201d within the meaning of sub-section 2 of section 22 of the Manitoba Act, or establish a system of separate or dissentient schools within the meaning of sub-section 3 of section 93 of the British North America Act, 1867 ?If said section 93 be found to be applicable to Manitoba, and if so, did the two acts of 1890 complained of, or either of them, affect any right or privileges of the minority in such a manner that an appeal will lie thereunder to the Governor-General in Council ?CHIEF JUSTICE STRONG.Chief Justice Strong, after pointing out how the case came before the court, said that the proper answers to be given to the questions propounded depended peculiarly on the meaning to be attached to the words \u2018\u2018any right or privilege of the Protestant or Roman Catholic minority of the Queen\u2019s subjects in relation to education,\u201d in sub-section 2 of section 22 of the Manitoba act.lt was important to contrast the clause of the acts in question inasmuch as there was intrinsic evidence in the Manitoba act that it was generally modelled on the Imperial Statute.The original Confederation act, and the divergence in the language of the two statutes was therefore significant of an intention to make some changes as regards Manitoba in the provisions of the later act.Section 93 of the B.N.A.act contained the words \u2018\u2018Or is there, after established by the Legislature of the Province,\u201d words which were entirely omitted in section 22 of the Manitoba Act.Sub-section 2 of section 22 gave the right of appeal from the Legislature of the province as well as from any provincial authority, while in the B.N.A.Act it was only from the act or decision of \u2018any provincial authority.\u201d This indicated an intention to make a deliberate change in the operation of the clause.On the other hand it might be urged that there was no reason for treatment of different provinces differently.A legislature ought to have the right to repeal its own laws.This right might be controlled by a written constitution conferring legislative powers which may restrict those powers and make them subject to any condition which the constituent legislators may see fit to impose.In construing Manitoba act it should be held that the Legislature of the Province had absolute power over its own legislation, untramelled by any appeal to Federal authority, unless restricted in this respect by the constitution.Was there anything, therefore in sub-section 2 of section 22 by which the right of appeal is enlarged, and an appeal from the Legisia- ture is expressly added to that of the provincial authority?The words \u2018any provincial authority\u201d did not, in his opinion, include the Legisluture.If the words ¢ is therefore established by the Legislature\u201d in section 93 of the B.N.A.act had been repealed in section 22 of the Manitoba act, the Legislature would have been expressly restrained from repealing laws of the kind in question which they had themselves enacted except on the condition of the right of appeal to the Governor General.That would have been accomplished if this were not intended by omitting from the clause the words \u2018Or shall have been thereafter established by the legislature of the province\u201d which was doue.It was clear that in the Manitoba act the words \u2018\u2018any provincial authority\u201d did not include the Legislature, but these words were used alternatively to the Legislature of the province.Manitoba it was right to suppose was admitted to union on the same terms as other provinces.The Chief Justice proceeded to say that if the I.egis- lature of Ontario or Quebec had conferred increased rights or privileges there was nothing to hinder them passing acts taking away these rights without their acts being subject to appeal.The B.N.A.act did not emanate from the Dominion Parliament, and although the construction which Parliament put upon it was not binding on the courts, it was entitled to respect.He held, therefore, that the right of appeal to the Governor-General must be limited to a particular class of such acts, namely, to such acts as might prejudice \u2018rights or privileges\u201d not conferred by the Legislature itself, but those which could only have risen from Confederation, those described in the first sub-sec- tion 22 of the Manitoba Act.The right of appeal to the Governor-in-Couacil must be therefore confined to acts affecting such rights and privileges as are * mentioned in the first sub-section, namely those existing at the Union.The words \u2018\u2018rights or privileges\u201d in section 2 of sub-section 22 of the Manitoba Act in his opinion were not intended to include rights or privileges originated under provincial legislation since the union, and, therefore, the Legislature of Manitoba was not debarred from exercising the common legislative rights of abrogating laws which it has passed relating to denomination or separate schools a denominational privilege; nor was such repealing legislation made subject tolany appeal to the Governor-in-Council, all the questions ought, therefore, to be answered in the negative.Mr.Justice Fournier differed completely from the Chief Justice.He thought the B.N.A.act did apply to Manitoba, and recited the manner in which Manitoba had entered confederation.To his mind there Was an appeal from any law the Legislature had power to pass, because there would be no need to appeal from an act they had no power to pass, and which the Courts would set aside.He held that the Governor-Ceneral-in-Council had the right to entertain the appeal and to make any remedial order thought necessary.He quoted Lord Carnarvon in the House of Lords in support of this view.He noted that under both the B.N.A.Act and the Manitoba Act of union there was an express provision for appeal.He answered all six questions in the affirmative save the third.To that he answered \u2018\u201c No.\u201d Mr.Justice Taschereau began by questioning the right of Parliament to \u2018\u2018constitute this court an advisory board to the Executive.\u201d Their opinion would bind no one and if as a mafter of public policy no action was to be taken upon the petitions for redress, even if an appeal did lie, the absurdity of the thing was apparent.Passing to the merits of the case he did not think the B.N.A.act applied to Manitoba which had a special act of its own.The words rights or privileges \u2018\u2018thereafter established\u201d being struck out of the Manitoba act, the only rights or privileges for the protection of which an appeal to Ottawa could be made, were those prior to the union, and with regard to those the Privy Council had decided they were not affected by the School act of 1890, which it was held was constitutional.If then it wag constitutional it could not prejudicially affect any rights in relation to education, and therefore afforded no ground for appeal to the Governor-(ieneral in Council.He agreed that the Legislature had power to revoke its cwn laws.He answered all the questions in the negative, except the third.Mr.Justice Gwynne concurred that there was no appeal, because the Privy Council decision settled the whole thing.He answered all the questions with a no, save the third, same as Justice Taschereau.Mr.Justice King differed from the majority, and held that there was an appeal for a remedy.He held that the acts of the Legislature establishing separate schools conferred such rights and privileges upon the minority as to give the Dominion Parliament concurrent jurisdiction to continue those rights or privileges.The act complained of imposed a double rate of taxation upon a part of the population and a single rate upon the other part, if separate schools were continued.The act took away the status hitherto enjoyed by these schools.The minority had a right to such redress.He agreed with Justice Fournier in his replies, answering \u201cNo\u201d to all but the third question.The opinion of the court was thereforeby three to two again st the existence of a right of appeal by the minority.SUPREME COURT JUDGMENTS.In the case of the Oscar and Hattie, decided in the Supreme Court to-day, an appeal was taken against the Admiralty Court of British Columbia, which condemned the vessel for a violation of the modus vivendi for fishing in illegal waters.The sealer was returning from finishing the fishing season in the neighborhood of the Copper Islands.The captain with his boat called at an island on his way to Victoria for the purpose of getting water.This island was partially within prohibited waters.While there the vessel was seized by the United States revenue officer, as there were skins on board.The Court below held that the vessel was liable, since it had mot shown conclusively that they were not caught in prohibited waters.To-day, the appeal of the owners of the vessel against the Admiralty Court jndgment was allowed with costs.The decision given in the Purcell will case reversed the judgment given in the Court of Appeal at Toronto and confirms the will known as the McLennan will, prepared by Mr.D.B.McLennan, Q.C., at Cornwall, Jan.10, 1891.This will was the last one and only provided for about $100,000 of the fortune, the rest of which will now go to the heirs.If the first will had been upheld, © number of charitable institutions would have received large bequests, which are but small sums in the will now declared legal.The first will was prepared by Mr.O'Gara, Q.C., Ottawa, and dated the 14th of May, 1890.Among the charities named in this will are the St.Patrick\u2019s Orphan Asylum and the Good Shepherd\u2019s of Ottawa.The Archbishop of Ottawa to get 4-27 parts of the estate for distribution among the deserving poor and the education of poor boys.The Archbishop of Kingston was also named in the will for a part as well as Bishop Macdonald of Glen- garry.The St Patrick\u2019s Orphan Asylum and the Good Shepherds of Ottawa were mentioned and the MacLennan will for $5,000 but in the (Gara will the amount will be from $15,000 to $20,000.Other judgments were delivered as follows: Harbor Commissioners of Montreal vs.Yuarantee Company of North America, dismissed with costs; Farwell vs.Queen, dismissed with costs; The Queen vs.Demers, dismissed with costs; ship Oscar and Hattie, appeal allowed with costs; Vancouver vs.C.P.R.Co., appeal dismissed with costs; G.T.R.vs.Beaver, allowed with costs; Hugo vs.City of Toronto, allowed in part as to first by-law; Holliday vs.Hogan, dismissed with costs; Northcote vs.Vigeon, dismissed with costs; Clark vs.Hagar, dismissed with costs.TO-DAY\u2019S WEATHER.Cloudy to Fair; Moderately Cold, with Light Snow.TORONTO,

OF COMMITTEES Seven French and Four English Chairmen Elected.KENNEDY AND NOLAN'S WORDY WAR The Proceedings of the Civic Cau cus Otherwise Decorous\u2014Ald: Smith and Beausolell on the Finance Committee\u2014Ald.Robert Gets the Police Chairmanship; Costigan, the Water Committee.The much-talked of Civic Caucus was held yesterday afternoon.The hour appointed was three o\u2019clock, but it was nearly a half hourafter that time before Mayor Villeneuve arrived and took the chair.The aldermen commenced to arrive at 2.30 and\u2019 from that hour until the meeting opened they were gathered in different groups, indulging in whispered conversations.There had been some talk in the ante-rooms of excluding the press, but the matter was not brought up during the meeting, both press and public being admitted.FRENCH ALDERMEN BREAK THE AGREEMENT.There was very little excitement during the entire meeting, with the exception of a tilt between Ald.Kennedy and Nolan on the question of representation by nationality.The result of the days work gave seven chairmanships to the French and four to the English.Several of the English speaking members are dissatisfied with this state of affairs and feel that the agreement entered into has been violated, the understanding being that the division should have been six to five as formerly.THE COUNCIL MAY SET THINGS RIGHT.There are likely to be some changes inthe Committees as arranged yesterday at the Couucil meeting to be held to-mor- row afternoon.Ald.Smith is opposed to having two legal luminaries on the Finance Committee.It is rumored that Ald.Savignac may be proposed for the chairmanship of the Finance Committee.All the members were present with the exception of Ald.Lefebvre and Hurteau, A GOOD SUGGESTION.At 3.30, Mayor Villeneuve called the meeting to order, He apologized for being late, and also spoke of the unavoidable delay in holding the caucus, caused by the fact that the recount had taken place, and that the judge\u2019s decision in bis favor had not been rendered until Friday last.He expressed pleasure at meeting his colleagues in a body.Mayor Villeneuve then suggested that the members of the Finance Committee should not form part of the other committees.Ald.Savignac thought this a wise provision, but unfeasible on the ground that the reduced representation would make it difficult to fill the other ten committees satisfactorily.It was suggested by Ald.Stevenson tha this question be settled before any furtl.business be proceeded with.Ald.McBride wanted some one to give a good reason why this new phase of affairs should be introduced.It was hardly possible in view of the reduced representation.Mayor Villeneuve replied that it made no difference to him personally, but he thought the work of the Finance Committee would be transacted in a more independent manner if conducted as a strictly separate committee.He felt that this method would remove possible prejudice in considering the claims of the various committees.ALD.BEAUSOLEIL STILL QUERCULOUS.Ald.Beausoleil said that if they did not stick to rule 44 À.of the by-laws of 1876 which provides that not more than one: member of the same standing committee and not more than one member of the Park Commissioners should be on the Finance Committee, it would not be possible to distribute the seven English members (which would be thus left out of the ten representatives of that nationalty) with a representation of three each on each committee without involving too much work for them.He thought the proposition wons neither fair nor feasible, and therefore felt that they should stand by the rule.Ald.Stevenson moved that the rules of last year be considered in force.PROPOSED REDUCTION OF COMMITTEES.Ald.Smith was of the opinion that in the interests of good government no member\u2019 should be on any other committee who held a seat on the Finance Committee.He.appreciated the ditliculty of carrying ouf this arrangement under the present cir«: cumstances, and therefore advocated the: reduction in the number of committees from ' eleven to seven or nine.This would allow : of the application of the suggestion.As at.present arranged only six members of other\u2019 committees could be represented on the, Finance Committee.This left four out of! the other ten committees unrepresented and: was unfair.The change to seven commits tees would satisfactorily do away with thi.) objection.: ALD.PREFONTAINE'S DANGEROUS PROPOSALy\u2019 Ald.Prefontaine coincided with Ald! Smith\u2019s opinion.He thought that in view of the reduction in the number of members, a reduction in the number of committees \u2018 was necessary.But as this could uot ke : done at the present time, it only remained to appoint committees as before.The only way to accomplish the desired reduce tion in the number of committees was to appoint a special committee for that purpose.Both Finance and Road committees could thus be made up of aldermen not holding positions on any of the other committees.Both these committees were of sufficient importance to be conducted in this manner, and would give the other members a certain exclusive control in the civic affairs of Moutreal.The understanding of four years ago was that no chairman should be a member of the Finance or Road Committees, He anticipated that some difficulty might arise when the question of chairmanships was brought up.If the Road and Finance were single committees it would'only leave four English members as possible candidates for chairmanship on the other committees.Ald.Kennedy said he was sorry to think that the members were afraid of each other.They had come into the Council to work in the interests of the people, and should set aside all personal and national differences.At this stagé Ald.Rainville said it was time to proceed to business.Ald.Savignac proposed Ald.Hurteau as Chairman of the Finance Committee, This was carried without a dissenting voice.Ald.Savignac then proposed that Ald.Smith, Farrell, McBride, Beausoleil, Rainville and\u2019 himself be members of tne Finance Come: mittee.OBJECTS TO LAWYERS ON THE FINANCE.Ald.Smith said it was undesirable tO: have two lawyers on this committee.Legaiy questions were not to be so thoroughly ais- \u2019 cussed in matters of finance

Ottawa Hockey Club to-night decided to resign from the Ontario League.The reason was a telegram from the Toronto Executive ordering the Ottawas to be prepared to play the final championship match in Toronto.The Ottawas, although they have held the Ontario championship four years, have only had one final match in Ottawa, and they think the Toronto clubs might do a little more travelling.They accordingly telegraphed to-night their resignation from the Association, and also wired Queen\u2019s College, Kingston, with whom they were to play to-morrow night, | that they would default.This leaves Queen\u2019s in the final.The Ottawas informed Queen\u2019s that they would be glad to ive them a friendly match in Kingston ter on.The club is disgusted with the action of the Association Executive, which is composed wholly of Toronto men.Osgoode Hall 10, Hamilton 5.HAMILTON, Feb.20.\u2014The hockey match for the championship between the Hamilton hockey team, winners in the southern district, and Osgoode Hall team, winners in Toronto district No.2, took place this evening on the Thistle Curling Club Rink.The ice was in good condition and the game was fast.There was a good- sized crowd of spectators present, and the many good plays of both teams were applauded with vigor.This was looked upon as the match of the season, and every point gained by either team was fought for.The match resulted in a victory for Osgoode Hall by a score of 10 points to 5.SKATING.Montreal Is the Place For These Races.REDBANK, Feb.20.\u2014There is no probability of the national amateur skating

of the Albany franchise will come up during the meeting.F.T.Fassett, of Albany, now hoids the franchise, but he \u2018has decided to give it up.He has given the Syracuse people an option on it.A fight is to be made to hold the franchise from the Syracuse people and to keep it in Albany.Burnham, of Toronto, Canada, will be at the meeting and will try to get the franchise for that place, but this is improbable as it will break the circuit and there are no clubs now in that section.Charles A.Byrne, manager of the Brooklyn team in the National League, and a member of the arbitration committee, is at the meeting, to act in case of a disagreement as to the disposal of any questions.She League will probably adopt the Spalding ball.The League will reach the schedule to-morrow.From all indications it will open the game as last season with the western teams in the East.BILL'ARDS.The Big Three Will Not Play in America for Many Months.NEw York, Feb.20.\u2014The \u2018Big Three\u201d of billiards,

on the Majestic to-morrow.Ives has uaranteed that, if Schaefer will go to ondon with him, the \u201cWizard\u201d can give exhibitions there that will net him the expenses of his ocean trip.Schaefer will leave Ives after the Loudon exhibition and go to Paris.Ives will play English billiards, and after that he may go to the continent.ASSOCIATION FOOTBALL.More Complaints Aboutthe Canadian Football Association.Sporting Editor, Herald.Dear Sir.\u2014 This morning\u2019s issue of your paper before me, I note with interest that some one has at last made a move in the Association Football Question.The letter signed \u201c\u2018A Player\u201d endorses my sentiments exactly: There is no reason why Association football should not have as firm if not a firmer footing, than Rugby, in our province.; About a couple of months ago there appeared in some of the papers a paragraph taken from either The Dundee Advertiser or The Glasgow Herald, written by a medical man, who is at the head of some large school in Scotland, showing that football is the healthiest and most scientific game on record.The writer does not state whether it is Association or Rugby, but I am quite confident it is the former, as Rugby is all but extinet in Scotland.The point [ want to get at is that those players and clubs who have this last season fought so well for this game, rise up and put out this Council (or clique) who are at present supposed to be trying to further its interests, and elect a council from out of the different clubs.Why not call a general meeting and invite this old council, and have last vear\u2019s business closed up, and let the auditors who undertook the work audit the books (if there are any), and :lose the business for last year.If there is a balance buy trophies for the winning teams, who fought so well for what they won, and from what income the Secretary-Treasurer got he must have a substantial balance on the right side to give prizes to the boys.If this is done, I have no doubt in the course of a few seasons we will be able to draw as large a crowd to our game as that which turns out to the national game, Lacrosse.W.Cowan MURRAY.Richmond, Feb.19, 1894.Another letter to the same effect signed | \u2018Another Player\u201d has come to hand, but it is not published as the author\u2019s name does not accompany it.Mr.G.B.Frazer Crierie, secretary treasurer of the association, says that a meeting of the council will be held next Wednesday evening and that the date of the annual meeting will be settled.\u2014SPORTING EDITOR.New York vs.Philadelphia.Representative teams of New Yorker: and Philadelphians are to have another test of strength and skill in the Association football field on Washington\u2019s Birthday, and the struggle will be carried on under the rules of the English Football Association, which have come strangely into prominence since the recent discussion on the improvement of the American game.The contest will be watched, too, by the eyes of the college experts, for invitations to witness the match have been sent to the teams of Princeton, Yale, Harvard and the University of Pennsylvania, and they have been already accepted by Princeton and Pennsylvania, and it is more than likely that the other two colleges will also be represented.MISCELLANEOUS.An application has been made to the Militia authorities at Ottawa for the use of the Drill Shed for the assault at arms which will take place on March 10 between Sergeant Instructor Hawker and Sergeant Major Morguns, of Kingston.he contest will take place under the auspices of the Duke of Connaught\u2019s Canadian Hussars, of which Hawker is the instructor.The leniency with which Cloister, last year's winner, has been treated by the handicapper in this year\u2019s Grand National has been \u2018severely criticised by English sporting writers.Cloister has been given the same weight, 12 st.7 lb., as he carried last year, when he won by forty lengths.This would have occasioned no comment if the horses that finished behind him which he is to meet again were not treated harshly, but by a strange system of handicapping some of these have been given a heavier 1impost, which looks as if they had been handicapped out of this £3,000 cross country stake.Of course there is an explanation for this blunder, and it is found in the statement that Mr.Mainwaring, the handicapper, originally fixed Cloister\u2019s weight at 12st.12lb., but that through a clerical error the horse's weight was officially announced as 21st.71h., which stands.An almost similar mistake was made in the case of Cuttlesome in the Royal Hunt Cup of 1892, but the error was corrected on the same day of publica- tion of weights.GUD 5ALlor AGIION.We'll skip it, reader; for it would look uesgernly to begin a story with an oath like that Gus Gurley swore, standing over his wife's dressing table that morning.And Gus wasn\u2019t a swearing man either.How came he, then, to commit such a breach of etiquette and ethics?Well, may be you wouldn\u2019t have done it; but don\u2019t be too sure till you've heard enough to be able to \u2018\u2018put yourself in his place.\u201d Imagine a young husband fof six months\u2019 standing,ardent, fond and trusting, casually entering his wife's dressing-room in her absence, and stumbling on a nischievious-looking, rose-colored noti \u2018reshly opened, a cupid in every crea.and a lurking lock of auother\u2019s hair\u2014red\u2014peeping stealthily from its folds! The very paper blushed guiltily as Gus caught it up.Eagerly and wildly his eyes ran over the contents.For a moment he stood amazed and metion- less, and then broke out\u2014 But we've promised to skip that, Perhaps any other man would have given utterance to as much.reading such a missive as | this, addressed to his wife: ** AFFINITY, Aug.\u2014th, 18\u2014, \u201cDEAREST KATE :(\u2014How could you go and marry that great hulky fellow behind my back, and without a word of notice?\u201cThough I've returned too late to forbid the bans, I'm still in time to give that lord and master of yours a hint\u2014which I mean to do\u2014 that an older love than his won't quietly suffer another to monopolize its rights.\u201cExpect me by Monday, and keep a kiss for \u201cPour ever affectionate SAM SMITH.\" Smith! Smith! Sam Smith! Faugh! What a name! Had it been Brown, Jones or Robinson, there might have been some bearing it.But Smith! And red-headed, too! \u2018\u2018Frailty, thy name is woman!\u2019 Yet it might be that Smith was some presuming puppy, whose vile epistle was the sheer result of his own impudence.But no; tne wife that could receive such a communication and conceal it from her husband could not be else than false.Smith\u2019s heart's blood was the very least atonement the case admitted of.Had Gus been more collected, he might probably have bided his time and taken is peace-destroyer unawares and then \u201ctripped him,\u201d trusting to an intelligent jury and proof of a mental alibi to bring him out all right.But he was not sufficiently rational for that, and so adopted the foolish plan of summoning Smith to mortal combat.Gus had a friend, Captain Borax, a retired quartermaster, thoroughly versed in points of honor.The captain was just the man for the emergency; but, as ill luck would have it, he was out of town for the day.That no time might be lost, Gus demanded satisfaction by mail, directing his challenge to the address indicated in the caption of Smith\u2019s note, and fixing a time and place at which his friend, Captain Borax, would be prepared to confer with any friend of Smith's.At the same time a brief message to Mrs.Gurley explained that important business necessitated her husband's absence for the next few days.Meanwhiie, Gus took up quarters at an obscure country inn, leaving everything to the management of the captain, whom he had succeeded in finding at last, and who, proud to be gcught for such à service, promptly repaired to the appointed rendezvous, where he was punctually met by a friend of Smith's.The preliminaries were speedily settled, and a meeting was arranged for the following morning.As the time drew near, (Gus grew nervous.The fact is, Smith\u2019s alacrity had taken him a little aback.He had felt quite confident that that miscreant would shrink from encountering the man whose honor he had outraged.But instead, without turning the word, Smith's second had chosen pistols, and named ten paces as the distance! It was | plain the wretch was as bloodthirsty as unscrupulous.Besides, Gus was no shot, which Smith, judging from his choice of weapons, no doubt was.How much better, Gus began to think, to .have fled forever from the scene of his unhappiness, or to have invoked the benign aid of the laws of South Dakota.But it was too late now to retract.From a troubled slumber, such as condemned criminals are apt to fall into in the last hours of their last night, Gus was startled by a sensation as of a bullet piercing his thorax.It was only Captain Borax poking him in the ribs, by way of reminder that his \u201chour had almost come!\u201d In a brief space\u2014how very brief it seemed\u2014they were on the fatal field.At nearly the same instant a close carriage drove up, containing the enemy\u2019s party.Smith\u2019s second sprang out, closing the door behind him.He took Captain Borax aside, and the two held a hasty consultation: which over, the ground measured, pistolsloaded.positions allotted, and everything in readiness, it only remained to place the men and give the word.The combatants were tostand backto back, and, at a signal, to wheel and fire.Etus had already taken his place, and was struggling, manfally but doubtfully, against an inclination, will-nigh irresistible, to leap over an adjacent hedge, and run as fast and far as his legs could carry him, when an exclamation from the captain caused him to turn his head.\u201cIn Heaven's name, who's that?\u2019 said Captain Borax, accosting the fellow- second, in the act of conducting a young and beautiful lady to the very spot destined for Smith.\u201c My principal, gentlemen, Miss Samantha Smith\u2014\u2018Sam Smith,\u201d as she's called for short.\u201d the other answered.Gus saw it all.Flinging down the pistol, he rushed forward, and would certainly have hugged and kissed \u2018\u2018 Sam Smith,\u2019 without ceremony, if her sec- ond\u2014no other than her affianced lover ! \u2014hadn't looked like a chap that would stand no nonsense.As it was, no man was ever equally pleased by the discovery that he had made an ass of himself.The lock of hair was the only puzzle unexplained, and \u201cSam \u201d soon cleared that up.It was one of Guy\u2019s own, given long before to Kate as a souvenir.\u201cSam \u201d had stolenit, to tease her friend, and had taken the method we have seen of returning it.Of course it wasn't red, but auburn.\u201cSam\u201d and her friend went home with Gus, first solemnly promising, as did the captain to keep the secret, and, above all not to let Kate know; but, bless vou.such things alwavs do get out.THE VERY THING FOR CHILDREN or \u2014 Doctor Pierce's Pleasant Pellets.They're so tiny, so easily taken, so easy and natural in the way they act \u2014 no disturbance, no unpleasantness, no reaction afterward, fined and concen- ° trated vegetable extracts \u2014 sugar-coated.: dose is a corrective, a regulator, a gentle laxative.When you feel *\u2018a touch of biliousness\u201d or indigestion, take one of these little Pellets.They go right to the spot.They absolutely and permanently cure Copstipation, Sour Stomach, Dizziness, Sick : or Bilious Headaches, and every derangement of the liver, stomach, and bowels.Almost never does Dr.Sage\u2019s Catarrh Remedy fail to cure the very worst cases of chronic Catarrh.You can judge of the chbanans of it from tha makars\u2019 afar.Thaw\u2019 MONTREAL DAILY HERALD.WEDNESD One of them at a HOW A BRIGHT LITTLE GIRL > LIFE WAS SAVED.A Terrible Sufferer From St.Vitus Dance\u2014Could Not Feed Herself and Had to be Closelv Watched.Recently, says The Shelbourne Economist, Mr.and Mrs.John Lindsay, who live in Mono township, told a reporter of the terrible suffering of one of their children and its restoration to sound health.It appears that during the winter of 1891.2 the child, Fernie by Name, contracted la grippe, and although she recovered from the usual symptoms of la grippe, she was never the same in health and strength.Her nervous system had become deranged, and as time passed the terrible symptoms of St.Vitus dance were noticed by the parents.Doctors did all they could for her, but instead of getting better she became worse.She could not feed herself, nor could she take hold of a cup when handed to her.She would frequently fall down when attempting to walk across | the floor, and had to be closely watched for fear she might at some time fall on the stove.She completely lost control of her limbs.She could not turn herself in bed and her parents had to turn her.She was perfectly helpless and had almost lost the power of speech.When she did speak it was with difficulty she was understood, as her tongue was drawn to one side and she had lost control of it.The condition of the poor child was pitiable in the extreme.The father determined to try Dr.Williams\u2019 Pink Pills.They commenced the treatment and by the time three boxes were used she had improved to a marvellous extent.In April last, the child having fully recov- ored, no more pills were given her.Several months have passed since then and there has been no relapse and no sign of a return of the terrible malady.The parents state emphatically that Dr.Williams\u2019 Pink Pills saved the life of their little girl.For all nervous disorders Dr.Williams\u2019 Pink Pills arc the only thorough and reliable cure.They act directly upon the blood and nerves, restoring them to a sound condition, thus driving out disease.| Sold by all dealers or sent post paid on receipt of 50 cents a box or six hoxes for £2.50, by addressing the Dr.Williams\u2019 Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont., or Schenectady, N.Y.: \u2018The Lost Drides, While two wedding procession were fighting for the road at oue of the gates at Hankow the chairs holding the brides got mixed and each lady was taker to the wrong bridegroom.The gentlemen never having seen their wives before, according to the Chinese custom, knew no mistake.When the next morning the mothers of the two brides went to present the usual hair oil to their daughters each found a stranger installed in her place.Neither mother, moreover, had any means of finding out where her | daugnter had gone.After a very diffi- ;

secondly, the higher education now conceded and secured to the sex ; lastly, the general enlightment of public opinion regarding the true office of women in society and the true relation of the sexes.So noticeable is this enlightenment that we look back from it to the middle of this century as one looks back from bright noon to the gray twilight of dawn.Satire and scorn alike are forced to take note of it.The caricatures of 1850 do not fit even the fools of to-day,and the essays and sermons of our time appeal to womanly sentiment as to a power regulated by heaven,not acting in disregard of it.The consequence of all this must be a purer and happier state of society.We shall have fewer hysterical spasms of good or of ill-feeling; more steady and sustained effort; a more intelligent au- alysis of human evils and a wiser pursuit of their remedies.As the whole social fabric is lifted to a higher level, not one of its departments will be allowed to lag below.How must the sense of the sacredness of home increase when reverence has so increased for the human life of which it is at once the source and the citadel! How must the forum and the market show the brain that guides the hand, and the conscience that controls the brain ! AI social offices will become higher in their requisitions and purer in their spirit, and there is not one of them in which women may not become ministers of peace and good order.Women go into the professions to-day because they are needed in them\u2014the woman physician, sympathising intuitively with the physical needs of her fellow-wcmen; the woman lawyer, coming to understand the true principles of justice, and applying them to the exigencies of her own sex ; the woman minister, keeping the flame of faith alive with tender zeal ; yes, and the political woman, a student of the vexed questions of economic and civil relations, and, when need shall call for it, ready to add to the weight of her conviction the power of her vote.These are the promises of \u2018\u2018the hour that cometh and now is\u201d;

I see the twelve men, with their grave, set faces slowly filing into the box ; I hear, as though from a vast distance, the calling over of the names, and the demand of the clerk, ¢ How say you, gentlemen ; do you find the prisoner guilty or not guilty 7 Audthenl am on my feet, with arms stretched out to where my love stands, deadly white, but more beautiful than ever, with hands clasped and eyes turned toward heaven, which has just heard the monstrous verdict that is to brand her name with infamy and cut short her life upon the scaffold.For the jury have returned a verdict of *\u201c Guilty,\u201d and our last hope has been destroyed.Some one draws me back into my seat, and implores me, for her sake, to remain calm.I try to obey, and I sit trembling from head to foot, amid the dread silence which now falls upon the crowded court, while, in the fewest possible words, the man to whose hand the wielding of the awful sword of justice has been intrusted pronounces my darling\u2019s doom.And then 1 wake as from a trance.Daisy is gone ; the judge has departed; counsel and stlicitors, jurymen, witnesses and spectators are all hurrying away, as though from the theatre when the play is * ended.Some one takes my arm.It is Harding, who has had time to doff his wig and gown, and who now leads me unresistingly from the hateful spot, CHAPTER XIV.A RIFT IN THE CLOUDS.Two days elapsed before I was allowed to see Daisy after her condemnation.Even then I should hardly have been permitted to have an interview with her but for certain powerful influences, which had been brought to bear on her behalf.Immediately after pronouncing sentence to death the judge had sent for Belmore, and had told him that he was by no means satisfied with the case as it stood, and that he had a strong conviction that the whole truth had not yet been learned.He found that Belmore entirely shared his views, and from him he heard of me and of the eftorts which I was making to procure proof of my darling\u2019s innocence.It was the good judge who smoothed the way for me with the prison authorities and who made it possible for me to have free communication with Daisy in her cell.But it must not be supposed that we\u2014 for Harding had formally devoted himself to my service in the task in which I was engaged\u2014were idle during the two days of waiting before I was admitted to an interview with Daisy.Idle! how could we be idle ?It was now the 6th of December, and I had already been warned that the day on which the martyrdom of my darling was to be carried out was the 28th of the same month.But three weeks were given to us, therefore, in which to establish her innocence.Even Harding\u2014good, kind, never-to-be- forgotten friend\u2014declared that neither for food nor for sleep must one moment of that precious time be wasted unnecessarily.What, then, think you, was my frame of mind.Within a few hours of the passing of the sentence Harding was in London, where he secured the services of the most eminent private detective of the day.The special mission of this man was to find Gregson.My work on that dark day on which the trial ended was of a different kind.Putting all remembrance of the last few weeks aside I went to Brank- some and Fosdyke and appealed to them to assist me in the task I had undertaken, On my interview with Daisy, when at last I was admitted to her in the condemned cell at the old castle, I shall say nothing that does not bear directly on subsequent events.She was changed greatly when I saw her, but she declared that I was changed much more seriously than she wos and probably she was right; for I had nothing of that noble courage and resignation which had borne her Up through all this time of agony, But I dared nos pend j= the precious minutes in lovers tale.I had other work to do for her sake.My first business I felt must be to get from her her own theory, if she had one, regarding the murder; and to prepare her way for that, I told her freely all my own suspicions, and the story of my abduction, of which she had only heard for the first time during the course of the trial.\u201cAnd you really believe that my uncle caused you to be spirited away in that fashion ?Depend upon it,\" dearest, you are entirely deceived, My uncle Was innocent.\u201d \u201cThen who could have plot ?\u201d \u2018\u201c Flinter must have done so.Let me tell you all I know about him.He has been employed for nearly eight years at my uncle\u2019s chief station at Wangoora\u2014 the place where we lived.I am told that he had been in some serious trouble, and that my uncle, who was usnally one of the kindest as well as one of the most simple-hearted men, befriended him.Very soon after he came to the station as an ordinary shepherd he saved my uncle\u2019s life when he was nbarly drowned in crossing a swollen river on our run.That, you may be sure, was never forgotten by my uncle.He very quickly raised him to one of the chief posts on the estate, and at the time that I came to live at Wangoora, six years ago, he was the constant companion of my uncle in his journeys, and had evidently secured his confidence.\u201d \u201c* But you spoke of him to me as dangerous.\u201d \u2018Yes ; he is dangerous, and bad, too.I very soon discovered that.But I cannot for a moment imagine that he would have plotted against his benefactor\u2019s life.He had everything to lose and nothing conceivable to gain by my uncle\u2019s death.\u201d That was pertectly true, and it was the one great stumbling block in the way of my theory regarding the murder.Flin- ter undoubtedly had nothing to gain by it.originated the (TO BE CONTINUED.)

Ds explain- books are crowded with artic ing various processes.; Stim, some of the secrets of handicraft emain.One of the most in © 89 these is the wonderful art of the B'asch- kas, which no other worker in glass has been able to learn or in any Way to imitate.The work is so UNIQU® and beautiful that you will be interested in hearing of the exquisite and marvelous results, even if all the processes of manipulation must remain a mystery.Leopold and Rudolph Blaschka\u2014father and son\u2014are from Bohemia, a country famous for its work in glass.The father is upward of 50 years old, but both he and his son are active and skilled workers.For a long time they worked in glass, making models of sea creatures for museums and colleges.About seven years ago they began making the works for which they are now so famous.not only the most exact reproductions in glass of flowers in their natural size, so perfect that the rich red cactus blossoms look soft and velvety, and our yellow cowslip ghows its satiny sheen, .and the little white anemone trembles and bends on its slender stalk, but also all the microscopic parts cf the flower\u2014almost invisible to the naked eye\u2014on such a mag- pified scale that a student may at any time study these hidden things of the plant world without a lens or a specimen.The Blaschkas live near Dresden.They have there a fine collection of tropicai plants\u2014orchids being a speci- slty.Rudolph Blaschka, the son, has made several journeys to South America to obtain rare specimens of these queer lants of vivid colors, spotted and streaked with scarlet and gold and green, or marked with silver and gold traceries and powdered with copper dust.Besides the tropical collection there is a large \u2018\u2018garden\u201d of what we call weeds and wild flowers, for the Blaschkas' handicraft shows us some exquisite arrangements in our common roadside flowers.The Blaschka work is especially in teresting and fine in its models of the orchids\u2014those velvety, fluttering air blossoms of tie tropics that so wonder- tully mimic insect life in their strange ghapes.It was, in fact, the exhibition of the golden butterfly orchid, with its long, antennælike petals and wings, as if just poised for flight, at a London flower show that started orchid culture in England.The spider and bee orchids often deceive the eye at first glance, and a branch of the moth orchid, which grows on the limestone rocks of the Philippine Islands, looks like a crowd of downy, spotted moths about to fly away.Other strange likenesses are found in the pure white dove and swan orchids, the lizard orchid and the lynx flower.Some are veritable clowns and jesters of the forest world, with elongated petals like \u2018\u2018odd, wagging lips,\u201d and tongues thrust out in derision, or growing apparently on their heads in midair, as if eugaged in a continual trapeze act.Owing to the fine botanical garden and greenhouses at Cambridge a visitor to the Blaschka work basa rare opportunity of comparing the living Howers and their marvelous reproduction in crystalline texture with each other.He will find that these modern glassworkers of Bohemia have not only ingenuity and manipulative bil, but a wonderful artistic insight as well.Creatures That Tumble Upward.It is only reasonable to suppose that the ability to sustain an enormous pressure can only be acquired by animals after generations of gradual migrations from shallow waters, says a writer in the Popular Science Monthly.Those forms that are brought up by the dredge from the depths of the ocean are usually killed and distorted by the enormous and rapid diminution of pressure in their journey to the surface, and it is extremely probable that shallow water forms would be similarly killed and crushed out of shape were they suddenly plunged into very deep \u2018rater.The fish that live at these enor- nous depths are, in consequence of the enormous pressure, liable to a curious form of accident.If in chasing their prey or for any other reason, they rise to a considerable didtance above the floor of the ocean, the gases of their swimming bladder become considerably expanded and their specific gravity very greatly reduced.Up to a certain limit the muscles of their bodies can counteract the tendency to float upward and enable the fish to regain its proper sphere of life at the bottom ;

and who can prove that he is destitute of this faculty, although not possessing articulate speech ?The other evening, while I was giving my plants a drink, he came to me several times, asking to have the gate opened.Not caring to lay down the hose, I paid little attention to his teasing, and he determin.| ed to compass his purpose in another way.To the front door he went, and, pressing it, found it not latched, but requiring some force to throw it open.Then he backed out the full w.th of the veranda, and, running, threw this weight so violently against the door as to drive it open.Very soon he reappeared with his mistress, to whom he had made his supplication, and she, without knowing of his failure with me, opened the gate and gave the little fellow his coveted freedom.It should be explained, in regard to the wit shown in opening a heavy or sticking door, that Toots acquired his experience with a fly door closed by the reaction of a spring.He found by experiments that if with his fore paws he pressed this door open just far enough to emit his body, it would spring to and pinch his tail; and that by retreating and running the whole length of a small entry he could impart momentum enough to open the door wide and thus clear his tail, at the same time letting out a dependent companion.This act, I am inclined to think, is a little smarter than is usual in a 2-year-old child.The Use of Glass Bricks.Experiments with glass bricks for building purposes were begun in 1891 by M.Falconnier, an architect of Lyons.These bricks are hollow, being blown like ordinary bottles, and are given forms\u2014such as cubes, hexagons, etc., that permit of ready laving.A bituminous cement, with a base of asphalt, is used.The bricks serve as double windows, giving protection against both cold and heat; are good insulators of humidity and noise; and they lend themselves readily to the decoration of buildings either by their form or their color.Many applications are foreseen, The bricks are neater than marble for meat markets, and are especially adapted for hospitals, bath halls, hot-houses, refrigerating establishments, and buildings in which absence of windows would be an advantage.A hot-house of glass bricks costs about the same as an ordinary one, + saves fuel, and resisfs hail, a MONTREAT DAILY HERALD.WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 21.1894.Mlolaoad Muh COTE ST.ANTOINE.Last fall the Coates Gas Company started laying pipes and canvassing the on dents, ofiering them rates much lower than those they were paying the Montreal Gas Company.To be equa to the occasion, or as the Hon.G.E.Foster would say, Ina moment of weakness,\u201d the Montreal Gas Company sent out the following circular to the residents of the Cote : ; Dear Sir:\u2014The present is to inform you that it is the intention of this company to make a material reduction in the Pos a of as for lighting and cooking purposes at an carly date.particulars of which will be sent you by circular in a few days.I remain, Your obedient servant, W.W.MOORE, Secretary.Dec.2, 1893.The \u2018\u2018few days\u201d mentioned in the circular have expanded into weeks and even months, and no explanation further than the rendering of gas accounts last week, at no redue- tion whatever, has reached the people.Many prominent residents have become incensed at such treatment.The Coates Company say that they mean to goon with the gas enterprise in the Cote just as soon as the weather :rmits.Meantime they have constructed a gasometer and extensive gas works at Cote St.Paul, from which Cote St.Antoine will be supplied.W.W.Moore, the secretary of the Gas Company, has said recently that the Montreal Gas Company will supply gas at a lower rate than the Coates Company, and at any rate the end will be that the older company will buy out the younger.The Coates people promise gas at 25 per cent.less than the residents are now paying.NOTES.The M.À.À.À.rink committee, are contemplating another Masquerade.The date is not yet fixed.Norwedt the Norwegian skater as wellas his opponent Breen are practicing every day at the rink.Both men are in excellent condition and the contest Saturday afternoon promises to be keen.ST.HENRI.Yesterday morning about 100 electors and rate-payers of St.Henri assembled in the Town Hall to consider the adopion of a by-law authorizing the Council to borrow $200,000 for expropriation purposes.Mayor Dagenais presided.The sum was divided as follows : $140,000 for St.James Street widening; $40,000 for the opening of St.Enilie Street, and $20,000 for St.Jean Street.The reading of the by-law took some time.The Mayor then explained the advantages of passing such a by-law.Councillor Senecal and Dr.Lanctot also spoke\u2019 There was a long discussion.The Mayor declared that the time allowed by law for requesting a poll had expired.Ex-Councillor Dore accused the Mayor of trying to avoid a poll.The Mayor denied the charge, and added that five other proprietors had not asked for it, even if Mr.Dore had, and the law required that six ratepayers shouid ask for the poll.His Worship further declared that the proceedings were regular, refused to grant a poll, and that the by-law concerning the loan was adopted without opposition.St.Henri\u2019s residents have been treated just the sume as Cote St.Antoine by the fontreal Gas Company.The general feeling is that parties using gas will patronize the Coates Eompany now, even though the Montreal Company reduce their rates, ae- cording to promise.LACHINE AND DIXIE.The talk along the lake shore suburbs, at Pointe Ciuire, Valois, Dorval, Dixie and Lachine, is the St.Lawrence Yacht Club Tombola.Monday afternoon a number of Lachine society ladies gathered at the handsome residence of Mrs.Andrew Dawes.The time was pleasantly spent in creating dainty designs in knick-knacks and novelties for the club tombola at Easter.Among the ladies present Mrs.J.L.Gulletti may be mentioned.Patrolman Julius Zeidler Or the Brooklyn, N.Y., Police Force, gladly testifies to the merit of Hood\u2019s Sarsaparilla.His wife takes if for dizziness and indigestion and it works charmingly.\u201cThe children also take it with great benefit.It is without doubt 3 most excellent thing for That Tired Feeling.I cheerfully recommend Hood\u2019s Sarsapariila and Hood\u2019s Pills to every one who wishes to nave health and comfort.\u201d Get HOOD'S.Hoop's Pitsr a ->- \"- \"la, constipation, ofliousness, *- Te TRIUMPH oF LOVE!

those mental and moral problems which thie cleaver writer delights to propound to herseif and lay before the thoughtful reader.20.Black Beauty.BY ANNA SEWELL, The tale well deserves its great

the people on the other side of the footlights.22 Sartor Resartus, BY THOMAS CARLYLR Few men have given a mightier impulse te the intellectual and moral life of his age than Thomas Carlyle.Helis perhaps the most profound, the most dramatic, the most imagina tive, and the most original writer of the century.With greatacutenessof thought and a marvellously forceful power and description, he has enriched the literature of the time as ne other writer has enriched it.\u201cSartor sartns\u201d (the tailor remade) is of the same unl- que type as Carlyle\u2019s own character.It pre esses to be a review of a German treatise om dross; but itds this only in an allegorical metaphysical sensé.It isin reality under a figure of a vesture of clothes, a veiled metaphysics, according to which all things visible, espect- ally we ourselves, are but a garment of sensuous appearance.Kvery object has a double significance ; but far down, in the heart of things, aud under every apparition, is the fale and indestructible reality.24, The Pleasures sf Life.By Sir Joux Lussook, Be This is one of the most instructive as well as the delightful books of the time.It is wriites with a student's devotion.and interest, and authors enthusiasm infects every reader.e book deals with the intellectual upbuilding and informing of the modern man, and will be found well nigh an education in iteeif,

though it is morerichly picturesque, as well as more interesting in plot.The sane glow of national feeling breathes through the poem, the same felicity of description, the sine ight and olor, the same instinct for andl ove of martial ardor, with many inimitable touches of tender passion.Scott's fervid pain and love of country are equally distin le in the poem and animates and illumines every, line, In the power of simple narrative famous metrical romance is almost unequ 26.Mornings in Florence By Joux RUSKIN, LL.D.There is no greater writer of English pross than Ruskin; his diction is mmagnificent, while his feeling for the beautiful in art or in natuse isunexampled.He is not only a versatile arte eritie, but perhaps the most icarned as well as the most enthusiastic exponent of architems ture.His \u2018\u2019Mornings in Florence\u201d are charme ing studies ot Lhe beauties of the historic F entine capitsl, told with a lover's interest art, and with much elevated thought and

tale, by a notable Scottish physician, One of 8he most genial of men, b won its way to the universal human heart.I is & pathetic story of canine sagacity an faithfulness, for Rab is a dog, and \u201c friends\u201d are an old Scotch carter and his wif \u201cRilie.\u201d \u2018I'he story tcl's of how the latter falls ill of a fatal malady, and is taken to the ime firmary at Edinburgh, closely followed by hep/ faithtulattendant, who watches by her bed, day by day, and only leaves the hospital when his master comes with his cart sorrowfully to take his old helpmate home on her lash journey.The story is beautifully and sympathetically written and is full of tender touches of human nature.2& These Books will be shipped direct when ordered by mail, or they will bedelivered over our

Herald! 109 day.Ped -) \u2018MONTREAL DAILY HERALD, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 1894.HYPNOTIZED THE ROOSTER.odd Oblect Lesson Introduced by a New York Minister.New York, Feb.19.\u2014Rev.Dr.Tyndall created quite a sensation at the Broome Street Tabernacle lastnight by the introduction of a live rooster in the pulpit.He ssid the Devil hypnotized men just as he would the rooster.He put the bird on a black-board, pressed his head tightly down, then drew a chalk line from his beak and iet him go.The rooster lay motionless for over a minute, thengot up and crowed, much to the delight of the audience.The trick was performed three times and then the preacher tried to do it without drawing the line and failed.\u201cThere, you see, said he, \u201cthe hypnotism is in drawing the line.The Devil gets men by the neck, then leads them by the nose to Hell, just as I led the rooster!\u201d Dr.Tyndall always has an object lesson in his sermon.By Wire and Cable.QUEENSTOWN, Feb.19.\u2014The

with Mr, Gilbert the sketch for the new Savoy opera, the production of which may be expected about a twelvemonth hence.This will, it is hoped, put a stop to the nonsensical reports that a fresh breach had occurred between the two.It is the custom of collaborators to criticise pretty freely each other\u2019s work, and it is very possible that more than one plot may have been suggested before the subject of the new libretto could finally be decided upon.But each gentleman has already tried another partner without absolutely making his fortune, and it may henceforwari be taken for granted that while the public will accept their labors, neither is likely blithely to relinquish the £13,000 a year which is said to be the average sum drawn by each from a Savoy success.~ Liquor Licenses.As the License Commissioners have decided that the number of licenses granted this year must be reduced by at least thir- ty-five, they have issued instructions that applications must be filed before next

restaurant on Victoria street, opposite the Academy.Mr.Carson, of the Dominion Alliance, does not think that, in view of the strong opposition, the application will be filed.Toronto\u2019s

simple, blue eyes, was regarded ag_a brave man when he went to ask old Milo Menard for his granddaughter's hand in marriage.The old miser regarded him with scornful eyes and worked his toothless jaws about after 8 most appalling fashion.\u201cEhi\u201d said Milo.\u2018My Mary Jane?What is it you're sayin\u2019 about her?\u201d \u201cI love her, sir,\u201d repeated Bill; \u201cand she loves me.\u201d \u201cPshaw!\u201d said Mr.Menard.\u201cAnd I want to marry her,\u201d protested Bill Jones, sticking gallantly to his post, \u201cWell, you can't!\u201d snarled Menard.\u201cAnd there's an end of the matter.\u201d \u201cI can support her,\u201d said Bill Jones.(The copperin\u2019 business is lookin\u2019 up, an nn \u201cThat don\u2019t make no difference.\u201d said the old man.\u2018My gal don\u2019t marry no one but a blacksmith.The old shop has got to be opened again; the business has got to goon.\u201d Biil Jones stared.Then it was true, as the neighbors said, that Milo Menard was wont, at times, to light the forge fires at midnight and work away on rusty old nails and bars of long-unused iron : especially on stormy nights when sleep fled his pillow, \u201cDon\u2019t you think, sir,\u201d he hazarded.\u201cthat the cooperin\u2019\u2014\u201d \u201cI dont know nothin\u2019 about the cooperin\u2019, and I don\u2019t care nothin\u2019 about it,\u201d said Milo, steadfastly.\u2018But this I do know: The man who marries my gal has got to be a blacksmith.\u201d \u201cThen,\u201d said Bill Jones, clenching his Hercules fists, \u2018Ill be a blacksmith 1\u201d He meant it.He apprenticed himself the next day to a sturdy son of Vulcan, whose forge roared in red volleys of flame up the chimney of a neighboring shed and never rested until he had qualified himself to shoe any horse in the State.; \u201cI wouldn\u2019t do that for any girl,\u201d said Harvey Martin, Farmer Martin's nephew.\u201cAh! gaid Bill Jones.\u2018But you don\u2019t know bow I love that girl! I've loved her ever since I met her comin down Rabbit Hill that snowy afternoon with a horse-shoe in her hand.\u2018Gran\u2019 ther says its bad luck to pass a horseshoe,\u2019 says she, laughin\u2019, when I made bold to ask her what on earth she was agoin\u2019 to do with it.\u2018So I always bring \u2018em home.Gran\u2019ther\u2019s got a pile of'em in the old shed back of the forge.\u201d A blacksmith, indeed! If theold cove had bid me to be & rope-dancer, I'd ha\u2019 gone to work practicin\u2019 with a will!\u201d Old Milo smiled grimly when he saw Bill Jones handle the red-hot iron in the old forge and viewed a set of horse-shoes that his mighty hand had hammered ut.\u201cIt ain\u2019t bad work,\u201d said he, \u201cYou'll be a blacksmith, boy, if you keep on.Yes, you may marry Mary Jane, if vou like\u2014now!\u201d Mr.and Mrs.William Jones\u2019 wedding trip was only to the nearest town to buy a store carpet for the best room and a set of blue-edged crockery to go to housekeeping with.\u201cIt\u2019s sheer extravagance!\u201d growled old Milo.\u2018But it aint my money they're goin\u2019 to spend, and I s\u2019pose Bill Jones has a right to do as he pleases with his own.\u201d But when the young couple returned, of & sunshiny October afternoon, old Milo sat out on his bench, his head bowed over the staff which he clenched in both hands-\u2014dead ! There were no sign of violence, no trace of mortal agony on face or form.Had he fallen asleep, he could not have locked more peacsfui and calm; and Bill and Mary Jane both agreed that it was better so.** He was peculiar, I know,\u201d said Mary Jane, bursting into tears.\u2018But he was always good to me.Oh, poor grandfather!\u201d And Mr.Griscombe, the lawyer, arrived end unlocked the old desk, which was propped up with a brick on one side and had had all the panes of the glass front broken out at different times by enterprising burgiars.\u201cNo papers,\u201d said he.file here.1 didn\u2019t suppose there would be.Mr.Menard deposited his last will and testament with me, ten years ago.It's very simple.It leaves everything to his granddaughter, Mary Jane Men- ard.Now,\u201d he explained, \u2018Mrs.Wil- iiam Jones, I'll read it to you.\u201d \u201cBut,\u201d cried the eager public, \u2018\u2018where is the fortune?What has become of the old miser\u2019s money?\u201d \u2018There is no mention made of money,\u201d said Mr.Griscombe, dryly.\u201cNor of fortunes.\u201d The public was ineffably disappointed.Not so Bill Jones and his blooming wife.\u201cPolly is a fortune in herself,\u201d said Bill, complacentiy.And go Bill flung open the doors of the musty old blacksmith\u2019s shop, lighted a huge fire and put on his leather apron and sleeves, white Mary Jane took her needlework and sat out on the bench where Grandfather Menard had died, and sang softly to herself, like a little human thrush.\u201cI don\u2019t know, I'm sure,\u201d said Bill Jones, \u2018\u201cwhat on earth I am going to do with all this preposterous heap of old horseshoes.\u201d \u201cIt was for luck, you know,\u201d apologized Mary Jane.\u2018\u2018Grandfather never could pass a horseshoe without pickin it up and bringing it home.And somehow he got me into the same habit.Some of these are very good, I think.\u201d \u201cAnd some of \u2019emn aint!\u2019 observed Bill, shrugging his broad shoulders.\u201cHowever, I'll just give 'em all an overhauling and see what they do amount to.It's my opinion, they'll most of \u2018em fetch just half a cent a pound for old iron.\u201d ** Wel,\u201d said Mary Jane, with a sigh, \u201cI suppose t's of no use keeping them.\u201d \u201cHallo!\u201d shouted Bill.\u2018These, down at the bottom are of mortal queer color! Eh?Iron?Not these ain\u2019t\u2014not if I'ma judge of metal! Polly, these are gold!\u201d \u201c What!\u201d cried Polly.\u201cSolid gold!\u201d said Bill Jones.¢ Tar- nighed add discolored and nigh the color of the old horseshoes themselves, but\u2014 solid gold! Polly, Polly, my girl, we've found the old man\u2019s fortune at last! No wonder the burglars never robbed him of it, for, as true as you live, he\u2019s beaten it all into horseshoes!\u201d \u201cIt cant be possible!\u201d cried Polly; who, dropping the blue gingham apron that she was making, had hurried tothe spot.Milo Menard, full of \u201cNo will on Jt was true.whim and caprice, had taken his own measure for preserving his own property; and all the clue which he had chosen to furnish as to the whereabouts of his not inconsiderable savings was the decree thay his grand-daughter should marry no one but a blacksmith, For OverFifty Years.Mrs.Winslow\u2019s Soothing Syrup has been used for over fifty years by millions of mothers and their children while teething, with perfect success.It soothes the child, softens the gums, allays all pains, cures wind colic, and is the best remedy for diar- rhœa.It will revive the poor little sufferer immediately.Sold by druggists in every part of the world.Twenty-five cents a bottle.Be sure and ask for \u201cMrs.Wins- ow\u2019s Soothing Syrup,\u201d and take no other Loxpon, Feb.19.\u2014Information has been received here that the French shelled the negro town Miafone, near Timbucton, and killed one hundred of its occupants, None of the French force was hurt, 0 \\ §rIVTIIINIY 02%2%2%2%2%222 upon getting a light every one of You Can Depend Eddy\u2019s «\u201cTELEGRAPH\u201d Matches.This is not the case with the Inferior substitutes often offered.The moral is obvious.ASK FOR EDDY\u2019S.time you strike ° 3 o : 292392993239 UN I \u2014- GRAND -\u2014 [ DISIH tte Cost Price.pusands of Subjects to Choose From.HE Herald has secured a magnificent assortment of French Oleographs, Etchings, Water Color Fac-Similes, Oil Chromos, etc., at a sacrifice by their previous owners which permits them to be distributed to Herald readers at figures in many instances away below the cost of production.ON THE COUPON PLAN.The distribution of this fine collection will be made upon the coupon plan, one coupon for one subsect, only been required.Cut out the Art Coupon which will be found upon page two of each issue of The Herald, and bring or send it with the price marked in the catalogue and the picture is yours.TCO MANY SUBJECTS TO NAME.Owing to the large number of the subjects in the collection, it is impracticable to give here a complete Jist of them, but the following will serve as a guide : ;

business Was not so active on the local Stock Exchange to-day as yesterday, the trend of prices was in nearly every case upwards.The better feeling in New York consequent upon the advance in wheat in the Chicago market was reflected here, and a better tope all round was noticed.Money continues easy at 4} to five per cent.on call, and with a large supply, and a better feeling among speculators, the prospects for the immediate future appear to be more hopeful.The Wiison Tariff bill is now within measurable distance of being reported to the Senate.and the general opinion is that it will soon pass that august body.It is not anticipated that the debate will be anything like as long or as tedious as that on the Silver Repeal Act.This will remove the only unsettling feature of any account, and a steady improvement in trade on the Stock Exchanges, as elsewhere, will assuredly result.In the local market to-day Pacific showed ax advance of 14 points on yesterday\u2019s close, while Cable and Gas showed fractional gains.Richelieu was the weak spot, receding froni 83 at the opening to 80% at the close, à decline of 2$ points from yesterday.Bank stocks were quiet, but steady, the only transaction during the day being two Montreal at 2204.Sterling Exchange is very strong.Sellers of Exchange say, according to The Wall Street Journal, that the reason tor strength in Sterling is remittances by sugar buyers.Not only are the large houses selling to sugar importers, but all the small ones can sell readily, We are told by a good authority that gold shipments, while probable, will not be large, and are not very likely in the immediate future.It is improbable that any will be sent this week.1t is felt that no importance whate ver need be attached to the shipnent of a few millions of gold.Some bankers would welcome it as a help to higher money rates.Te-dax's highest, lowest and closing prises, the number of shares sold, and the | net changes from yesterday\u2019s

prices on the New York Stock Exchange reflected a better feeling, and were generally over last night's closing.A.S.R.fluctuated rapidly during the first hour on the different constructions placed by the street upon Senator White's promotion to the Supreme Court Bench.On the whole, it is regarded as a master stroke towards securing free sugar, as it removes one vote in the Senate which would have been cast against a tariff bill which afforded no protection to the \u201csugar\u201d interests.The next result of the forenoon\u2019s trading was to leave the stock fractionally above last evening's close.Chicago Gas was in good demand from the initial trading and advanced a full point before the demand was satisfied.D.C.& F.lost 1 per cent.up to noon on the selling for inside account, doubtless inspired by the fact that the quo warranto proceedings instituted some days ago and abandoned on account of the illness of Judge Tulley, will be resumed shortly.The Grangers were inclined to strength, but trading in them was limited.Mo.Pac.and N.E.declined on sales inspired by the statements of earnings made public today, but both recovered the loss before 2 oclock.W.U.was steady around 83.During the closing hour the market was firmer all along the line, influenced by the advance of two cents per bushel in wheat.The short interest in Burlington is getting to be unwieldy and } per cent was charged for the use of the stock.The close was firm, New York Gossip.Messrs.Meredith and O\u2019Brien have received the following by direct private wire from New York - use of B.Q.; Chicago Special: Wheat is up two cents to-day and everybody is feeling much better.\u2018There have been large purchases for export at various points.the official quoting of a number of American bond issnes on the Paris Bourse.The preliminary arrangements have been made by an important foreign institution which has connections on this side.Messrs.Meredith & O\u2019Brien, 16 St.Sacrament street, have received
