all they could do was to give an analysis of samples sent to them.Mr.Mills said there was no means of preventing the importation of adulterated teas, as was shown by the Controller Inland Revenue, and the moment the member from Halifax showed that there was adulterated tea on the way from China the Government should act.The gravity of the subject demanded that the public interest should be adequately protected.The debate was adjourned.QUESTION OF PROHIBITION.Mr.Flint\u2019s motion \u201cthat it is expedient that as speedily as possible this Parliament should enact a law to prohibit the importation, manufacture, and sale of intoxicating liquors in Canada, except for medicinal manufacturing and sacramental purposes,\u201d was next on the list.Mr.Flint began by referring to the deputation of temperance advocates who waited upon the Premier at the beginning of the session.He stated that the wording of his motion was in consequence of the reply given that deputation, doubting the possibility of prohibition even if advisable.In comparing the legislation proposed against adulteration of teas and food with prohibition, he claimed that the principle of suppression and prohibition of evil was no new thing in legislative records.Going as far back as the end of the past century he gave a brief resume of the prohibition movement, bringing the record of failures and partial successes down to the present.Mr.Flint was speaking when the House rose ab 6 p.m.THE EVENING PORTION.After recess Mr.Flint resumed the debate on his motion for prohibition.He contended that the burden of disproof with regard to the benefit of prohibition rested with those who claimed that the evil effects of the liquor traffic were exaggerated, Quoting from many reports he portrayed the awful accumulation of evils resulting from the use, even under the recognition of legislative bodies, of spirits and claimed that the responsibility of protecting its citizens rested with the state in this rase as directly as it does in the matter of the sale of poisons.His estimate of the amount paid by the cone sumers ci this country for the cause of the evils he had enumerated was between $35,000,000 and $40,000,000.There were invested in the brewing and distilling business in Canada $15,363,654 capital, giving direct employment to 2,243 em- Floyees, whose wages amounted to $1,070,331, and employing these mert were 162 breweries, 8 distilleries and 5 malting businesses valued at $1,469,000.In all there were about 10,000 or 12,000 persons interested in the liquor trafic.fle asked the question if these compari- tively few people and this small capital were to be protected and supported to the detriment and injury to the greater number of citizens and immense interests opposed to the liquor trade.The matter of loss of revenue to the state so often raised by opponents of prohibition he said could easily be counterbalanced by the advantages resujting from the changed habits of the people and quoted Mr.Gladstone to the effect that \u2018\u201c\u2018the matter of revenue must never be allowed to stand in the way of needed reform.\u201d As a result of Father Mathews\u2019 seven- year temperance crusade in Ireland the revenue from customs increased and the saving bank deposits rose by $4,000,000.That was a proof that prohibition does not decrease the prosperity of a country.Statistics from the states of Maine, Kansas and Iowa, prohibition states, were quoted in support of his statement that the enactment of prohibitive liquor laws #id not operate in any way to the prejudice of the prosperity of these states.Mr, Flint concluded his interestinx speech with an eloquent appeal for support to his motion.Dr.Roome, member for Northmiddlesex, seconded Mr.Flint\u2019s motion briefly, He did not think it likely that the House would grant the legislation asked, but Le was sure that if not at the present time then before long the demand from the country for prohibition would be granted.Mr.Craig, speaking in support of the motion, said that prohibition was one of the live question of the day.He proceed- el to outline the difficulties of enforcing prohibitive legislation.Dr.Christie referred to the appointment of the Royal Commission on the liquor traflic as a waste of time and money.He was of the opinion that the only remedy for the liquor evil was prohibition and be- licved the time had come when the country desired it as was shown in the provin- = plebiscites.\u201d (Continued on Page 2,} ~ rere Ex-Priest Corkery Makes a Bold Bid for Notoriety.FAITH DENOUNCED AT THE ALTAR.The Proffered Consecrated Wafer Knocked From Mgr.McEvay\u2019s Hand and Scattered on the Floor \u2014 The Sacrilegious Deed Perpetrated in the Presence of Hundreds of Children [By Canadian Press.) HaniLroN, Ont., May 7.\u2014There was a big sensation during children\u2019s Mass at St.Mary\u2019s Cathedral yesterday morning, at which several hundred children and about 400 adults were present.Reverend Mgr.McEvay extended the invitation to all who wished to partake of communion to come to the front.Among others who went up was James Corkery.Corkery claims to be an ex-priest, and has been lecturing in Hamilton for some time past on the false doctrines of the Roman Catholic faith.He failed to draw many people to hear his lectures, and was also unsuccessful in his attempt to organize an independent Catholic church here.When Corkery was handed the consecrated wafer by Father McEvay, he struck the priest\u2019s arm so vigorously that the contents of his hand was strewn about the floor.Corkery at the same time repeated these words : *\u2018I protest, shame on you; this is no more the body of Christ than it is the man in the moon.\u201d The communicants and other worshippers in the church were so astonished at Corkery\u2019s act that they did not recover from the shock of surprise till two or three of the ushers, acting on Mgr.McEvay\u2019s instructions, had ejected Corkery from the church, and the service was immediately resumed.A warrant was sworn out against Cork- ery.He was arrested at noon to-day.He will be prosecuted for offering violence to a clergyman while in the discharge of his duties, and is liable to imprisonment for two years if found guilty.The alleged ex-priest evidently wanted to gain notoriety in order to draw better erowds to his lectures, and took this method of gaining it.Had Corkery been known to all of the audience in the church it is doubtful if he would have escaped from the edifice without receiving violent injury and such was the people\u2019s indignation at his sacrilegious actions, possibly he might have bee n killed.COMPROMISE TARIFF BILL.Amendments Introduced to the Wilson Bill in the Senate.WASHINGTON,

of Music.The play chosen for last night was \u201cThe New Magdalen,\u201d0a dramatization of Wilkie Collins\u2019 book of that name.Rhea is a great favorite in Montreal.It could hardly be otherwise, for is she not a | great actress?Indeed, yes.So clever a woman is she that one is apt to condemn the plays which are written for and played RHEA.by her, simply because they fall below the standard of the woman who produces t!.em.M\u2019ile Rhea has brought us an actor aew to Montreal.In W.S.Hart she ha: secured an artist well worthy of the position he holds.His work last night as the Rev.Julian Gray, told of years of study and left no reasonable ground for criticism.The closing scene between Mlle Rhea and Mr.Hart was extremely strong.Tears fell from many eyes and the cuitain dropped amid a silence that was a just tribute to two clever people.The Grace Rosebery of Miss Minnie Bowen would seem overdrawn, but the character as written by Wilkie Collins, calls for just sich a conception, and Miss Bowen may be congratulated.\u2018I'he New Magdalen\u201d will be reyeated to-night and to-morrow \u2018\u2018Josephine\u2019 will be played.BRISTOL'S HORSES.Professor Bristol gave the initia' performance of his trained horse entertainments at the Queen\u2019s Theatre last evening to a well filled house.He has a herd of about 20 head of horses, ponies and mules, all of which are remarkably well trained, and some of which are exceedingly clever.Prominent in the trick line is the mule Denver.Probably the most intelligent exhibition, was given by the horse Sultan who gives answers to arithmetical questions, tells the day of the month and the time of tne day by the watch.He was asked goine arithmetical questions by the Professor and pawed off the auswers with a giver number of

particularly interesting to the young folks, and matinees will be given on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday for their benefit at the uniform price of admission of 25 cents.THE WILBUR CO.The second week for the Wilbur Opera Company opened most auspiciously at the Royal with the performance of the three- act opera \u2018 The Royal Middy.\u201d Crowded houses greeted both performances, and warmly applauded the many pretty songs and choruses which are interspersed throughout the opera.On Miss Susie Kirwin, as Fauchette, rests the plot of the opera, and she is well able to sustain it, while Miss IE.Mortimer, who is cast for the Queen of Portugal, won several hearty encores.The other characters were also well sustained.DOUBTFUL ABOUT McGREEVY.His Possible Candidature in Quebec Worrying the Conservatives.(Special to The Herald.) QueBec, May 7.\u2014The latest political rumor here is to the effect, that if Hon.Thos.McGreevy comes out as a Conservative or independent candidate for Quebec West ab the next Federal election he will have a strong opponent in Mr.P.Valliere, the Quebec furniture manufacturer.Some leading Conservatives also hinted at the fact that their party suspecting Mr.Mec- Greevy on account of the compromising disclosures he could make against their leaders in the House of Commons intend booming the candidacy of Mr.R.R.Do- bell, wood merchant.In order to capture some of the Liberal voters of Quebec West, the latter gentleman, it is stated, would be brought out as an independent candidate.At all events the announcement of Mr.McGreevy coming out as an independent candidate is rather hostile to the Sir John Thompson Government and has created uneasiness among the Quebec Conservatives and has not been seriously denied as yet.The health of Hon.John Hearn has improved, but he is still very feeble.Alexander Chauveau, eldest son of Mr.Justice Chauveau, met with a bad acei- dent yesterday.While trying to prevent a dog from barking at the horse of a visitor standing near Mr.Chanveau\u2019s horse, he went too near the animal, which was frightened and got badly kicked in the head.The young man is not dangerously injured, but has a bad cut which had to be stitched by the doctor, A fierce squall struck Quebec at noon today and has done considerable damage to property in some parts of the town.Mr.S.N.Parent is certainly one of the most popular Mayors Quebec ever had.All the local papers, Conservative as well as Liberal, warmly congratulated him in connection with the dinner offered to him by a number of leading citizens of both parties at the Union Club on Saturday last.At the demand of Mr.Jos.Hamel and Co., Messrs.Pelletier and Co., dry goods merchants, St.Joseph Street, St.Roch, assigned on Saturday.Assets, $7,400, liabilities, $8,500.Mr.H.A.Bedard is provisional

the District Attorney and to request the lawyer to devote himself to the recital of what was intended to be proved.GENERAL COXEY.citizers who had witnessed the occurrence.Mr.mixed statement, it was gathered that the defense would be based largely on the brutality of the police in clubbing citizens.It was to be shown that Coxey had not walked on the grass and that Browne had been driven through the shrubbery by the police.The first witness for the defense was Mr.Frank Harper, a young newspaper man from Alexandria, Va.According to his story the police had driven the citizens on the grass before the procession arrived, in order to clear the pathways.He saw *\u2018General\u201d Coxey arrive.\u2018The general wore nothing designed to draw notice to his organization, but walked so quietly to the steps that he was not recognized until the people who knew him pointed him out.Then the police stood on the steps and surrounded the general when he arrived.On cross-examination he said that there were fifty or sixty thousand people waiting, all cheering and whooping for Coxey.\u201cDisorderly,§were\u2019nt they ?\u201d\u2019 inquired the District Attorney.\u201cOh no, they had a right,

every time.\u2018Then you disobeyed the police,\u201d said the District Attorney.*\u201cT'he police are not the law.They are the agents of the people to carry ou the law,\u201d was the reply.Witness number two, was a colored man named Samuel L.Perry, who when asked his business, explained: \u201cI am one of the army of the unemployed just now.\u201d Until the beginning of the Democratic administration he had been employed in the treasury.7) fi LA XH A 7 7 Ge gt i 6 DAA 27 LP SN GENERAL TRY.He had followed the procession, and kept hy \u201cGen.\u201d Coxey, and could swear that the

the police drive the people on the grass.General Coxey himself in hisgray spring suit with creased trowsers walked into the witness stand.He gave his residence as Massilon, Ohio.\u201cWhat is your

bills.\u201d Judge Miller would not permit the introduction as evidence of the speech Mr.Coxey intended to make, or the protest he issued, saying they had nothing to do with this trial.Mr.Coxey told the story of the march to Washington without any embellishments.The trial of the Commonweal leaders, which has dragged along in the Police Court for three days, will be concluded tomorrow.It is apparent that the case is being tested on the broad grounds of justification for Coxey\u2019s movement, for the Assistant District Attorney, in his opening address called Browne a crank, and did not hesitate to insinuate that Coxey was a knave, while the opposing lawyers endeavored to make the trial appear a persecution by the plutocrats of the people, and appealed to animosity against Wall Street.ARRANGING AID FOR KELLY.Des Moivrs, May 7.\u2014Gen.Kelly and his army have decided to build barges and continue their march to Washington via Des Moines river.Des Moines people were so delighted with this prospect that they have subscribed money to build the 150 flat boats necessary for transportation.Late last night a meeting of labor leaders was held, Grand Master Workman Sovereign being present among others.It was decided to issue an appeal to the Knights of Labor of America and Canada, asking that each individual member contribute one dollar to Kelly.GENERAL FRY\u2019S CONTINGENT.IxpIANAPOLIS, May 7.\u2014Gen.Fry and his army of 200 tiled out of camp Landers at 8 o'clock to-day on their way to Washington, over the National road.Before leaving, Gen.Fry said that the roasting the local press had given him helped to advertise him and put $500 into his pocket; that he had \u2018\u2018worked\u201d the town to its limit and had a good time.He will reach Washington, he thinks, with $2,000 treasury, a greater portion of which will come from the sale of his book.At Irvington 150 handkerchiefs tied on rails, met the army and demanded a speech from Fry, to which he responded in a few words, and after a sentimental young woman had tied a bouquet on the txeneral\u2019s lapel, with a goid wishbone for good luck, the army resumned its eastward march.HORTHERN PACIFIC TRAIN CAPTURED.Tacoma, May 7.\u2014The commonwealers put a torpedo on the Northern Pacific track, a mile and a half east of Easton late last evening, and stopped the easthound freight train.Over 100 of them boarded it.The engineer backed the train into Easton and side tracked it.Deputy marshals are on their way from Stampedo, a station 11 miles west of Easton, Lo eject the Commonwealers.It is estimated that but half of the army originally camped at Puyallup has crossed the mountains.DIVORCED WIFE ON THE RAMPAGE.MASSILLON, Ohio, May 7.\u2014The prospect of arrest on the criminal charge of abduction awaits Messrs.Coxey and Browne, when Judge Miller, of Washington, is done with them.This trouble is in consequence of the disappearancecfthe \u2018Angel of Peace\u201d in Coxey's May Day parade, The \u201cAngel\u201d was Miss Mamie Coxey, who is still in Washington, and got there without her mother\u2019s knowledge or consent.The mother, Mrs.Caroline Coxey, is the divorced wife of the General, and sccured her decree on the ground of excessive cruelty, and was made legal custodian of the girl.Young Jesse Coxey was sent from Rockville, Md., and succeeded in getting his sister to run away with him.Mrs.Coxey announces her intention of having Browne and Coxey arrested the moment they put foot on Ohio soil, and she may carry the war into the district of Columbia.EMPEROR WILLIAM AT A FIRE.He Was Foremost in the Work of Fighting the Flames, PorspaM, May 7.\u2014Gatow, a village near this city, suffered severely by fire to-day and for a time was threatened with complete destruction.Emperor William, who was at the new palace, was notified and promptly rodeto the burning village after having alarmed the Spandau garrison and summoning the Berlin fire department to send a number of engines to Gatow.By the time he reached the village many nouses were already consuined and the flames were spreading rapidly, Before the arrival of {he fivemen, FEm- peror William assisted the villagers in fighting the flames.\u2018The Emperor busied himself in carvying buckets of water, wielded an axe incutiing down dangerous beams and wus the foremost in organizing succor for the people, rendered homeless by the conflagration.In spite of the sitorts of the six large farm Butler University students, with white.Sat CONTINUES 10 NUDE More Destruction on

slides are caused by the gradual rising of the Ste.Anne\u2019s River for the past three or four days, carrying away a large quantity of timber, etc., piled along the river shore.Since the St.Alban catastrophe Mr.Xavier Lebeeuf\u2019s barn, situated about three acres from the C.P.R.bridge, as well as Mr.Johnny Briere\u2019s house about four acres from the barn has been carried to the river.This afternoon the place is undermined as far as the dwellings of Uldric Boisvert and widow Briere, which are expected to be carried to the river every minute.The dwellings of Messrs.Xavier Lebœuf, Achille Bochet, Elzear Donville, Napoles Lafleche, Prosper Lafleche, Louis Lafleche with J.A.Rousseau\u2019s store, also Mr.Are- and, blacksmith shop, are in great danger.All these houses have been abandoned through fear of being carried to the river, a8 land is rapidly sliding towards the river, and the inhabitants of this part of the village are in great consternation.THE BRITISH PARLIAMENT.Nothing Doing in the French Shore Question\u2014By-Election.{Associated Press Cable.] LoxpoN, May 7.\u2014In the House of Commons to-day the Parliamentary Secretary to the Colonial Office, Mr.Sydney Buxton, replying to a question put by Mr.Edward T.Gourley, member for Sunderland, said that no negotiations were proceeding with France with the view of bringing about an amicable settlement of Newfoundiand difficulties.Individual complaints, Mr.Buxton added, were occasionally made in regard to the use which the French make of the treaty shores, but generally the inhabitants and the fishermen were friendly with the \u2018Frenchmen.: Loxpox,May 7.\u2014Baron Hood,of Avalon, a retired admiral and formerly a lord of the Admiralty, called attention in the House of Lords to-day to the large increase in foreign navies, and asked whether the proposed increase of the British navy, provided for in the British estimates, was sufficient to insure to Great Britain the command of the seas.Baron Hood especially urged an increase of 6,800 men in the personnel of the navy.The first lord off the Admiralty, Earl Spencer, said that the Government was determined to maintain the navy and to render Great Britain paramount upon the sea.The Governmentscheme, he added, provided for the naval requirements of the next five years, but it was not thought advisable to announce the details beforehand.Loxpox, May 7.\u2014The election to fill the vacancy in the House of Commons made by the retirement of Sir Charles Russell took place in South Hackney to-day.Fletcher Moulton, Q.C., Liberal candidate, was successful, receiving 4,530 votes.Herbert Robertson, Conservative, received 4,338 votes.A LETTER FROM LABRADOR.Mr.A.P.Low, of the Exploring Party, Tells of Their Progress.[Special to The Herald].Orrawa, May 7.\u2014A letter just received here from Mr.A.P.Low, of this city, leader of the Government exploring party that left Lake St.John in June lest to endeavor to reach Ungava Bay by traversing the entire Labrador peninsula from South to North.Mr.Low wrote from Hamilton Inlet, where his party were forced to go through scarcity of provisions.The report that more than two hundred Indians in the vicinity of Ungava Bay had died of starvation during the preceding winter is also fully corroborated.It took nearly five months for the letter to arrive, but it gives & most graphic and interesting description of the perilous journey of the expedition through the interior of Labrador and of the maguificent canons of Caniap- scow river and other mnalural wonders encountered on the way, during the present summer.Mr.Low and his party will attempt to cross Labrador from Kast to West, a much harder trip than that from South to North, but he speaks hopefully of his prospects of success.URGED CANADA'S CASE.Against the Imposition of Retall- atory Tolls on the \u201cSoo.\u201d Wasuniegroy, D.C., Mav 7.\u2014A.W- Raymond, of Detroit, was heard to-day by the House Committee of

of Pennsylvania is More Than Delighted There- by\u2014Annual Meeting of the Pointe Claire Boating Club \u2014 Corbett Scored by Fitzsimmons.Princzron, May 7.\u2014The annual games of the Princeton University Athletic Association excited the greatest interest, princi- paily owing to the presence of the Track Athletic team from the University of Pennsylvania.This is the first time that the Old Penn men have competed with Prince- & ton, Yale and other colleges, and their suc- J \u2019 \\ cess was something of a shock to the other men, The great event of the day was the mile run, which was won by G.W.Orton, of the University of Pennsylvania in 4 minutes 28 2-5 seconds, thereby breaking the intercollegiate record of 4.29 4-5, à feat all the more remarkable from the fact that the track was only in fair condition.Orton ran from acratch, J.J.Overn, of the University ot Pennsylvania (130 yards), getting second place and John Hanlon, of Princeton (100 yards), third.Orton is the young Canadian from Toronto University who is taking a post-graduate course at the U.of P.He holds the Canadian championships for one and two miles and the American championship for one mile.He was given a great reception by his fellow students.Of the whole events the U.of P.took 37% per cent., Princeton coming second with 25 per cent., and Yale third with 24.Seven other colleges were represented.The M.A.A.A.s New Traîner.Ab last night\u2019s meeting of the M.À.À.À.executive, it was decided to engage À.M.Bennett, of Toronto, as trainer for the club temporarily.Mr.Bennett will be given a fortnight\u2019s trial and, if satisfactory, will be engaged permanently.He last year acted in a similar capacity for the Toronto Rowing Club, and is understood to be an excellent man.A Scheme Which Might Well Adopted in Canada.PairapeLpiia, May 7.\u2014Frank Ellis of the Field and Track Committee of the University of Pennsylvania Athletic Association, has hit upon a scheme which he firmly believes will remove much of the annoyance to spectators at field and track games arising from their inability to distinguish the various contestants in an event.He says that the system of small numbers pinned on an athlete\u2019s shirt has proved totally inadequate, and that many are kept away from games simply because they want to know who this or that athlete is and cannot find out.Mr.Ellis has struck upon the jockey system, and it will be followed out at the various games to be held on the Pennsylvania grounds this year and by the Quakers in their contests with Cornell at Ithaca if the latter management consents.Each man will wear à colored sash, and his color with appear opposite his name on the programme.\u2018Where the number of entries exhausts the plain, pronounced colors he will resort to marked combinations, such as black and yellow, red and green, etc., rather than resort to the variation of a standard color.be BASEBALL.New York Blanked by Boston

pass him on the fly.Durocher is doing excellent work on second.The Granites have had two good practice games, the first with a score of 5 to 4 in 10 innings, the second was 5 to 0 at the end of the ninth.Bell, Birse and Woods have had good practice and have their arms right in it.Bell and Birse are pitching a grand game, while Woods has a full control of the ball.Boston is in fine form and

of $5,000 offered by the Olympic Club was not big enough for him to fight for, adding that the club would have to make a more liberal offer.Wm.A.Scholl, the president of the club, was wired suggesting that probably $8,000 would be suitable.Before another offer can be made there will have to be another meeting of the directors, when it will be proposed to offer a bigger purse.The Olympic Club is aware that there is no other organization in America that can bring off glove contests, and they do not propose to offer unreasonable sums and then fail to pay them.Prize Fighting Stopped York City.New York, May 7.\u2014The boxing exhibitions of the West Side Athletic Club and an organization known as the Coleman Club, which were to have taken place at Central Palace Hall and Lenox Lyceum respectively last night, were postponed indefinitely.Supt.Byrnes set his foot down on boxing yesterday, and ordered Capt.Reilly, in whose precinct Lenox Lyceum is located, and Capt.Berghold, who has jurisdiction over the other hall, to close up the places.So many shows have been held lately which advertised knockouts that the Superintendent of Police was forced to call a halt.There is no law against boxing in this city, but prize fighting will not be countenanced.Thousands of people lined the walks in front of the halls mentioned, all ready to pay for tickets.At the Central Palace a placard was posted announcing that the show had been declared off.The Coleman A.C.did not even take the trouble to put up such a notice.This edict stops the exhibition at Madison Square Garden next Saturday night, and at least a dozen more fistic carnivals.Fitzsimmons Responds to Corbett\u2019s Attack.New York, May 7.\u2014Iu a letter to The New York World, Bob Fitzsimmons scores Corbett unniercifully, and again expresses his intention of fighting the champion, if the latter wins the fight with Jackson.Continuing, he says: \u2018Corbett, with a supercilious sneer, asks me what I have ever done to entitle me to a go with him.I reply, More than he ever did.I met, not sick or superannuated champions, broken down by disease or gay living, but real, live, hard, rugged men-\u2014men whom Corbett was afraid to tackle\u2014and signified my willingness to meet others whom he could not be induced to face for a ton of gold.\"W'wo of the hard men I met and defeated were Jim Hall, of Australia, and Peter Maher, the Irish champion.Of the latter Corbett seemed to have an abnormal dread.\u201cSpeaking honestly and manfully and yet without prejudice, do not believe that Corbett possesses in the slightest degree the courage which always characterized champions from the days of Tom Cribb down to those of John I.Sullivan.He is what that prince of sportsmen and brightest of wits, Pat Sheedy, calls a *\u2018sure thing\u201d gamblor.Corbett culls his opponents as a florist does his flowers.He juinped ut the chance to go agoinst John L.Sullivan when the latter had been broken down with sickness and social excesses, but skillfully avoided a battle with sturdy Paddy Slavin when the big Australian was at lus fittest and best.He took on Charley Mitchell, a middleweight, five inches shorter, 35 pounds lighter, and six years older than himself, and dodged Peter Jackson, who possesses all the advantages he does save youth.\u201d in New WATER POLO.Meeting of the New

TURF.Directum so Badly Hurt That He May Trot no More.SAN Francisco, Cal., May 7.-\u2014Directun, 2.04, the champion trotting stallion, has been badly hurt and will probably not be trained this season.The stallion was being led along five miles of gravel road, from the farm of his owner, John Green, of Dublin, to the stables of Orrin Hickok, at Pleas- anton, who was to train Directum for C.C.MeclIvor, who had leased his racing qualities for the year.On the road the stallion stumbled and fell, the tendons of a foreleg receiving a bad cut from the shoe of a hind foot.The cut is deep, and may ruin the trotter\u2019s career on the tracks.Sale of Mr.Jackson's Trotters.The trotting stock of James J.Jackson, proprietor of Wood Glen farm (Montreal Junction) will be sold to-morrow afternoon at the farm at 2 o'clock.Among those that are to be sold are the standard bred stallions General Banks, 10,383; Leontes, 7843; mares Melody, Jolly Girl, Alice, also fillies Geldirds, etc.Messrs, James Stewart and Co.will conduct the sale.Californian Thoroughbreds Coming East.SAN Francisco, May 7.\u2014The contingent of Culifornia thoroughbreds in the Ilast will be increased within a few days by the McDonough string.A number of horses of the young millionaire breeder were shipped yesterday.The principal ones in the string are Yo El Rey, Stromboli, Burmah and Lux.Yo El Rey is a full brother of Yo Tumbien, who won the Inaugural stakes at St.Louis Saturday.Stromboli is entered in the Suburban and is being prepared.His reported break-down is not true.Burke Nagle, proprietor of the Pueblo stables, iutends to send a string of thoroughbreds within a few weeks.The stable will comprise Bellicose, Brioso, Bravura, Agitator, the noted Gloaming and Examiner.Bellicose is the two-year-old Peel colt, that has shown himself superior to anything of his age on the coast.DBrioso is entered in the great Futurity.Agitator is by imported Cyrus, and has won a couple of races at the Bay District tract this year.Examiner is a full brother to Armitage, and is thought to have a good chance for the Metropolitan stakes.Bellcose is considered the star of the string.He is entered in four stakes at Chicago.the Hpde Park, Kenwood, Quickstep and Lake View, and will also start in the two-year-old stakes at Saratoga, and will run at Sheeps- head Bay in the fall.Yesterday\u2019s Racing

whom, he says, are doing wretched work.Yale's new paper shell has been launched.It weighs 45 pounds more than Harvard\u2019s new cedar boat, but is considered to be more durable.The new shell which Harvard will use in the races this yeur is just about ready for planking, and it is claimed to be the finest racing shell ever built.It is being constructed by Davey, the famous Cambridge boatbuilder, and has a number of improvements, It is estimated that when completed it will weigh only 215 pounds, 25 pounds less thun the boat used by Harvard the last time she beat Yale.A Mysterious Yacht Buver.New York, May 7.\u2014The leading yacht owners and brokers of this city are puzzled over the actions of a young man who gave his name as Joseph Lawrence.He has been calling on several, saying that he is the son of an English millionaire and that he wants to buy a yacht.He has been dickering for several expensive boats, such as Gould\u2019s Atalanta and Astor's Nourmahal and has offered as high a $100,000 for some of them.Of late he has vanished.He seemcd always to be supplied with money, and never suggested a loan.He frequently spoke of receiving remittances from his father.The brokers are convinced that he doesn\u2019t want to buy a yacht.Pointe Claire Boating Club Shape for the Season.The Pointe Claire Boating Club held its annual meeting at the M.A.A.A.last evening.The report of A.G.B.Claxton, the retiring secretary, showed the club to be in a sound condition in every way.The lack of interest in paddling among members of the club was assumed to Le owing to the fact that Point Claire has such excellent facilitics for sailing, That C.KE.Archibald and Vincent Pelletier won many honors at the A.C.A.meet last year was duly pointed out.\u2018As usual the fortnightly \u2018hops\u2019 attracted crowds from every watering place along the Lake.The clnb\u2019s thanks are due to those ladies who assisted in decorating the Boat- House,\u201d said the report.\u201c\u201c\u2019fhere were three regattas held during the year.The first trial one was marred by the memorable storm, wherein one of your members, Mr.C.Levine, lost his life.The open regatta, although the weather was not propitious, was in every other way a great success.\"The number of competitors was large, and the contests keen.The second club regatta brought out a number of new men, but, ag in the past, they retired with their prizes, I suppose, never to shine again.Your Committee have had the club house put into a first-class state of repair, and a larger, broader, and more commodious gallery erected in the front of the main boat house, which will give much needed room.Your Committee deemed it advisable to have the club incorporated, and your secretary made tlie necessary petitions and declarations before the City Council and Superior Court, and you are now an incorporated association.\u201d The following were elected officers for the ensuing season: President, R.R.credith; vice-president, W.P.Slesson, væptaiu, À.G.B.Claxton; secretary, Ross Owens; treasurer, H.L.A.Goddard; committee, C, Archbald, R.Kiughorn, L.Ain Gordon, H.W.Higginson, C.Hardie and V.Pelletier.R.Campbell Nelles offered a cup for an open yacht race to be held under the auspices of the Club, and W.Cottingham announced his intention of giving a single canoe us a prize to the best single paddler at the Lake races.FOOTBALL.Council Meeting To-morrow.The Council of the Canadian Football Association will ineet to-morrow evening at the Queen\u2019s Hotel, at § o'clock.All off councillors are requested to attend.+ TALK ON PROHIBITION.{Continued from Page 1.) Mr.Coatesworth thought there was a good deal of milk and water in the resolution on the principle that hall a loaf was better than no bread, however, he would support it.He regretted the poor attendance in the House and hoped the time would shortly come when the leaders of both parties would be compelled to recognize the question as an important factor in politics.Mr.Dupont contributed a short speech in Irench, advocating the present system of license, on the ground that prohibition failed to prohibit in Maine and other places where it had been put in force.Mr, W.F, MacLean said that too much attention was paid to moral reform by the legislation in this country.Moral reform came from moral suasion and there were greater evils than inten.perance to be combatted.Adulteration was an evil that should be attended to.Give good beer, wine and spirits instead of trying to enforce prohibition, which would certainly be followed by other and worse habits such as drug taking.Three- fourths of the revenue was paid by men who drank, and these appeared to have no defenders.He advocated reform by i- cence and the abolishment of saloon drinking.If the House should pass the resolution without abolishing the saloon in the House the members would stultify themselves as hypocrites.Sir Adolphe Caron moved the adjournment of the debate, and the House adjourned at 11.30.WORK IN THE SENATE.The proceedings in the Senate to-day were largely devoted in committee to the consideration of abill regarding the Montreal harbor.This bill is for the purpose of consolidating and amending the various Lills respecting the harbor.The bill was before the committee when the Senate adjourned.Two reports were presented from the Divorce Committee on the Dillon case.The minority report was signed by Senator Kaulbach, who demanded that the petitioner Dillon should have been allow- el to answer certain questions which he put to him as to his religion, but which the committee prevented Dillon answer- ng, The object of these questions was to show that Dillon and his wife were both Catholics, that they were married and that the church is opposed to granting divorces.All the members of the committee opposed these questions, and as a consequence they were struck out of.the proceedings before the committee.Fo- day the Senate ordered that all the proceedings before the committee be reported to the Senate, so that a lively debate may be expected when the Senate comes to deal with the report.MORE CLERICAL ERRORS.Mr.Foster to-night gives notice of another number of important changes which he will propose to the tariff in committee.In the first place he proposes to restore wood pulp to the old tariff, 25 per cent.ad valorem.The new tariff was to have placed it on the free list.Cases for jewels, watches, silverware and plated ware, cutlery and other like articles are made 5 cents each and 30 per cent.ad valorem.The old tariff was 10 cents each and 30 per cent.ad valorem while the new tariff changed this to 33 per cent.ad valorem, the specific duty being done away with but by the proposed change there will be a return to a specific duty of 5 cents eaoll, and 30 per cent.ad valorem.Wire cloth N.H.S.is now made 30 per cent.By the old tariff it was 20 and 30 per cent.for brass and tinwire cloth respectively.Under the new tariff both are 20 per cent.Copper wire is put back to 15 per cent.as under the old tariff.It was to have been reduced to 10 per cent.in the new.lEmery wheels, placed on the free list by the new tariff, is now restored to the old duty of 25 per cent.SESSIONAL NOTES.Mr.Maclean has given notice of motion to-night that the sale of spirituous liquors in the restaurant of the House ought to be prohibited.Mr.Devlin will ask on Wednesday if the Government have received lately a petition or memorial from the Roman Catholic Archbishops and Bishops of Canada or from some of them with regard to the Northwest school question, and if so do the Government intend to lay the same before Parliament.A Conservative convention was held at Duncansville, in the county of Russell, about 20 miles from Ottawa, to-day.Hon.John Haggart De Montague, M.P., and Mr.\" Amyott, M.P., were present and addressed the meeting.Mr.Hnrtubise, lumber-man was selected to contest the riding against J.C.Edwards, Liberal, for the Commons, and Mr.Spratt was nominated to run for the Local Legislature against Mr.Robillard, M.P.P.Mr.Pratt is Reeve of Gloucester.Ottawa News Notes.Orrawa, Muay 7.\u2014The hat and fur store of W.H.Mills on Sparks Street was this morning damaged by fire to the extent of $7,000.Insurance $5,000.A lamp exploded.Tug steamer Dauntless was destroyed by fire in the Allumette Rapids on the Upper Ottawa on Saturday.\u2018The crew had a narrow escape.The funeral of the late Col.John Stewart took place this afternoon to Beech- wood Cemetery, with full military honors, The pall-bearers were Col.McDonald of the militia stall;

some quick-witted florist has not hit upon the plan of having a number of pretty girls engaged in selling flowers at places of amusement or in the street.T would, especially this season of the yar, prove à very profitable investment.But, moralizing aside, fit is almost im- jusible not to draw comparisons be- tn Fenthe pleasant-looking French girl, A teatly attired, can be seen any Agi #ant day exhibiting her wares and the raker who, in this country, with dirt-be- © grimed fingers hands you out the sweet- scented blossoms.In Paris one sees so many flower stands, with their clean, Iright-colored awnings, which are so very picturesque, besides shielding the plants from the sun.Then they have somany made bouquets, but they are not at all like the stiff affairs we are accustomed to, the colors are so daintily blended, the sweet-scented flowers so evenly distributed as to impart a fragrance to their less favored companions, and to finish they are encircled with a fonnel-like arrangement made of paper which suggests the old-style bouquet affected by our grandmothers long ago.This paper, however, is only to shield + À \u2018 bouquet and is removed upon placing it inwater.The French girl groups her bouquets in the stall in the most effective way, using her potted plants on the foreground with such an eye to the general effeet as to prove Iresistibly attractive to the pas- ser-by, who stopping to adrnire without any idea of purchasing, finds himself inveigled into buying \u2018just a few flowers for mademoiselle.\u201d In the Vienna flower markets, as they are called, the visitor is graciously invited to be seated and pretty girls, artistically arrayed in bright colors which harmon- Ye with the plants with which they are surrounded, exhibit the potted plants, tut flowers, bouquets, anything which the customer calls for.It is a very xurlous way of shopping, and the tmapting display set before the would- , burchaser is bewildering to the \"aveler who

HERALD, TUESDAY MAY 8, 1894.rerence in temperature 1s takén into consideration all the instruction in the world would not make the flower girl of Roms any more like the sweet, pretty appearing girl who disposes of her wares on the streets of Hamburg.Each girl has her customers and she never thinks of accosting one whom she knows to be a regular customer of some other girl.But the Roman beauties, with their black curls and saucy eyes, will scramble and fight for a purchase and bewilder a purchaser till he does not know which bouquet he has taken or from whom he has bought it.But they have, however, such melodious voices that no matter how much they may scold it never grates upon the ear, and when extolling the beauty of their sweet perfumed violets their eyes are as powerfully pleading as the music of their voices.The Spanish girl is more dashing and always adorns her person with some of her flowers.She can no more help it than she can breathe.With her beautiful eyes she will say volumes to you, while you in the meantime are trying to decide which bouquet is the most desirable, but her tongue is always discreet.Woe beside the person who thinks he can stop for a few minutes cajolery without purchasing any flowers.She will meet his good natur- ed chaff with great dexterity.softened however by tender glances from most bewitching eyes, and as he turns away with the flowers, which he did not want but which she has made him purchase, he feels quite sure that she is laughing at his discomfiture.Would the American flower girl be the success her sisters across the water are, is a question that has been answered in the negative many times.The girls in this country who seek for their living among the crowded thoroughfares lose so soon the modesty and charm of maidenhood.The French girl, no matter how naughty, has a cettain chic, a refinement of manner that makes her anything but disagreeable.She is extremely deferential in her intercourse with customers, and the hand that holds up the flower for your inspection may be soiled, but nothing in the demeanor of the girl testifies to that fact.The American girl in her vulgar attempts at a flirtation would exhibit her total lack of modesty in a manner particularly offensive to a person of any refinement, and the purity of the blossoms she was trying to sell would only accentuate the loss of it in herself.The Spanish girl is seductively attractive without a suspicion of vulgarity so noticeable in the American, and she is much more successful than the American girl would be, exciting admiration so many times when, under similar circumstances, the American would awaken only disgust.The German girl is innocently confiding.it be acting?If so she is the most consummate artist in the world ag she nolds her basket up that all may see as they pass by, entreating with a timidity that is as charming as it is successful.As yet we have very few graces with which to credit our flower girls, but there is not the slightest doubt but what they will, with a little judicious nursing, eclipse both in their manners and appearances the foreign article.It will be news to most readers to hear that the selling of second-hand flowers has grown to be quite a trade in Chicago, as well as in the larger eastern cities.! \u2018These flowers, of which it is safe to say three-fourths are roses, are bought from people who give large parties and receptions.Clubs especially are lavish in their use of flowers on gala occasions, and after the festivities are over the floral decorations are carefully gathered and sold to the highest bidder of the A HAMBURG FLOWER GIRL.numerous competitors.The flowers are then sorted and \u2018\u2018spruced\u201d up and reappear next day on the corners as.freshly - cut - direct

to understand it, however, and was quickly on his way to the house on Seventy-sixth street.Once more the girl jcined him in the parlor.tewell,\u201d?said Mr.Barnes, have you succeeded?\u201d \u2018Why of course,\u201d replied the girl.\u2018You néver knew me to make a failure, did you.You won\u2019t class me with Wilson, 1 hope?\u201d \u2018Never mind about Wilson; tell me your story.\u201d \u201cVery good.Don't be impatient, You know me, 1 take my own way of doing things.Well you left me in the Madison Square Park.I sat on a bench and watched Wilson.Two hours later a man cam?out of the hotel and Wilson followed.It made me laugh to see the gawk K««lking along in the rear.He's nosar- tist.Why, any booby could tell in a min- site that he was on the trail.\u201d _ \u2018I told you to omit remarks about Wilson.\u201d \u201cI know, but I choose to tells you about him, because I make you appreciate me more.So there he was chasing after out his name.You don\u2019t tell me, but your man Mitchel.You see 1 have found that could not trouble me long, you know, It was real fun.One minute Wilson would be actually running to keep up, and all of a sudden Mitchel would stop so short, that Wilson would almost bump into him, Of course he knqws Wilson by this time, Wd just has fun with him.I wanted to get one good square look at him myself.B jumped on æ car and reached Third Avenue ahead of them.! ran upstairs to the platform.Wilson stopped in the mid- hid in the waiting-room.Soon up came Mitchel, and away he goes to the end of the olatiorm.Wilson stopped in the middle and tried to look natural, which, of course he didn\u2019t.When the train came along, I got aboard and walked through till I found my man and down I sat right opposite to him.I just studied his face, you bet,\u201d \u2018Yes, Miss, and he studied yours.You are a @oose, and you disobeyed orders.1 told you not to let that keen devil see you at \u2018ail.\u2019 **That\u2019s all right.It came out straight enough.At Forty-second street he got out, and so did Wilson, and so didn\u2019t I 39 \u201cWhy not?\u201d \u2018Because then he might have suspected me.No, sir; I rode on up to Forty-second Btreet, crossed over, took a train down, and was waiting in the station when Mit- thel came along the second time.This time he was alone, evidently having eluded Wilson at Thirty-fourth Street.Ha took the down train, So did I, this time keeping out of sight.He went straight to to his lay, and I after him.It is a house in Irving Place.Here is the number.\u201d She handed a card to Mr.Barnes.You have

you not report?\u2019 CI went down again yesterday to try to learn more.1 sat out in the park and watched the young girls when they came out for an airing.I could not find a chance to speak to the

a small, rather dim photograph of a young pretty girl, and gave it to Mr.Barnes.About half an hour later he leit the house.CHAPTER VIII.Two days after the events just related Emily Remsen\u2019s maid announced that she had just received news that her mother was very ill, and that she had been notified to go to her at once.Her mother, she said, lived in Elizabeth, New Jersey.She wished to go at the earliest possible moment, and begzed that her cousin, Lu cette, should be allowed to attend to her duties till her return, which she hoped would be in a very few days.Asked it her cousin was competent, she said yes, and especially apt at arranging the hair, having served an apprenticeship with a I'ienlh hair-dresser.Indeed the girls real name was Lucy, but she had changed it to Lucette, to pretend that being French she was necessarily a good maid, In Hiss Remsen\u2019s mind this changing of her name was nothing in the girl\u2019s favor; but as her own maid was thus suddenly taken from her, and as this other was offered at once, she agreed to the proposal.Lucette arrived during the afternoon, ! and Miss Remsen was delighted with her.Expecting a talkative, intrusive person, assuming Frenchified mannerisms, she was surprised to find a quiet unpretentious\u2019 creature who immediately showed her- sell to be well acquainted with the duties required of her.terni used by

without appearing to do so.Mr.Thauret was also présent, though he did not remain very long.He chatted a short time with Emily on conventional subjects, and then worked his way to the side of Dora,

heart rather than from the mere passing fancy of pleasing, It was very skilfully done, There was so little of it, that no one, certainly not an inexperienced girl like Dora, could suspect that it was

and it must face that fact as philosophically as possible and make the necessary provision for getting out of it.But what of the future?Are we to go on scattering money right and left, living up to the very limit of the income fixed by the Legislature; mortaging our future as long as the money-lenders will make loans?It looks as though we are; for though there are some conservative-minded men in the Council the old spirit of reckless- nessin expenditure is still dominant there.What, with the the Federal, Provincial, aad, civic imposts combined, it is little short of marvellous that Montreal continues to advance.There is a limit even to miracles; and a continuance in the course of extravagance and consequent high taxation will surely lead to a crash.THE IRON DUTIES.The discussion of the iron duties, although, perhaps, not carried into such detail as the importance of the matter might have warranted, was instructive.It was shown with great clearness that the parties and their several members are in harmony as to the benefits which the country would derive from the establishment of a healthy iron industry in Canada.But it was shown quite as clearly that the parties are utterly at variance as to the means which should be employed to that end.The Government, of course, was forced to admit that in 1887 Sir Charles Tupper botched the whole series of duties.If the term has any meaning at all, the establishment of an iron industry involves the working of the Canadian mines, the smelting of Canadian ores, and the passage of the Canadian raw material through each of the several processes known to the ironmasters.Those who gave the Government a conscientious support when the iron duties were revised seven years ago, surely never contemplated such a beggarly interpretation of their patriotic demand as Sir Charles Tupper put upon it.They never imagined that the result of his scheme would be a working of Canadian iron far below the mark set in his sounding periods, while in the manufacture of those iron articles which enter most largely into consumption by the great mass of the people a series of tyrannous combines would be effected.They did not dream that while puddling furnaces stood black, the manufacturers of cut nails would make fortunes out of the working of imported scrap iron.It is impossible to believe that Sir Charles Tupper was ignorant of the effect that the apparent protection of the furnace men would avail little so long as their product, the raw material of succeeding branches of manufacture, was undersold by an imported raw material.A two dollar a week office boy, sent out among iron men to pick up a few pointers, would be discharged at a moment's notice if he brought back an idea of that sort, and with all his faults, Sir Charles Tupper is not a fool.I: was a matter then, and for several years remained a matter of the extent of the influence of the several interests.It is a matter now of the the Government\u2019s skin, and as the fraud of the seven vears\u2019 discrimination in favor of the rolling mills men and their fellows, and the utter failure of the scheme to build up an iron industry, properly so-called, has been fully exposed and by the people at length clearly recognized, the Government has announced as something new in economics a fact of which it has always been aware and has claimed credit for a decision to which it has been forced by adverse criticism.The Liberals argue that if the blast furnace is to be protected at all, it must be protected against imported scrap, a raw material which enters directly into competition with the product of exactly those branches of the industry of which the success is essential to the establishment of the industry on any thing like a genuine and lasting basis.And when it is remembered that the Liberals are opposed to protection in any form, this argument cannot be deemed inconsistent with of several important branches of manu- faciure, is to be condemned.So, too, with the Liberal sdmission of the comparative fairness and expediency of the bounty system.1fit be held to be advisable that any industry is of an exceptional nature and that it presents exceptional possibility of benefit to the people, it scems an altogether reasonable conclusion that that industry should be protected in a sum fixed and visiblo, that the people may know exactly what they are getting and exactly how much they are paying for it.Upon such grounds, based usually upon some radical error in the general fiscal system, the bounty is defensible, if defensible at all.And that seems to be the only reasonable construction that may be put upon the Liberal championship of the bounty as against the high duty.The iron duties are to be condemned as a whole.In their new shape they arc no less obnoxious than in their old.They are, in a sense, more consistent with the Government's expression of a desire for the creation of an iron industry, but for that very reason, they are calculated to impose upon the people a burden even greater than the old.And in detail, as will be shown in due season, they will be found equally vexatious.THE COMMERCIAL COMMUNITY will probably not seriously object to the Government making haste slowly in the passage of an Insolvency Act.While the need of one is seriously felt, it is not desirable that Canada should repeat her experience with a badly-designed and unworkable measure.It is a most difficult question to deal with.The statements mads to the Senate Committee show how varying are the views of the banker, the wholesale merchant, the retail trader, They cannot be measure and the agriculturist.assimilated ; compromise would surely be useless.The proposition that the bill as amended hy the Senate should go to the country during the recess for careful consideration, aud come up again for final action next session, is one which has a good deal to commend it.& OnrvitLe W.Owrx, M.D., of Detroit, hus established to his own complete satisfaction that Francis Bacon\u2014who, according to this same authority, was the son of Lord Dudley and Queen Elizabeth\u2014 wrote Shakespeare's works; the plays of Robert Greene, Peel and Christopher Marlowe; \u201cThe Faerie Queen,\u201d and the other works of Edmund Spencer, and Burton's *\u2018Anatomy of Melancholy.\u201d Bacon was plainly a hustler, but it isa distinct disappointment to find that he did not add Ben Jonson's poems to the other works which he dashed off in the intervals between bribe-taking.Perhaps three centuries hence some learned individual will be able to prove that W.E.Gladstone, in addition to his Homeric studies and labors as a statesman, turned off Tennyson\u2019s poems, Darwin\u2019s Scientific Works, Spencer's Philosophical Series, and perhaps even Sarah Grands \u201cHeavenly Twins.\u201d Tur MINERAL oCTPUT of Canada last year, according to official figures, amounted in value to $19,250,000.Of this metallic minerals supplied $4,582,\" 166, the largest item being nickel $2,076,357.Gold comes next with $927.- 244 while copper was third with $875,- 864.The greater portion of the production was of non-metallic minerals such as such as coal, mica, petroleum, gypsum, salt and structural materials such as bricks, granite and lime; these aggregated in value $14,391,291, of which $5,422,000 was supplied by coal.The total for the year shows a falling off for the production averaged $19,500,000 in 1892, and $20,500,000 in 1893.THE LACHINE CANAL commission has turned the search light on Mr.Kennedy, Mr.Parent and Mr.St.Louis.Now a parliamentary commission should turn the search light on the Department of Railways and Canals.It is difficult to see how the Minister and his deputy can evade all responsibility in this matter; and Parliament should insist upon them clearing themselves by some more thorough means than those provided by the dismissal of one or two subordinates.Besides Mr.Parent and Mr.Kennedy are not, it is said, prepared to hecome whipping boys for their chiefs.THE CHARGE is recklessly made every now and then by Conservative journals that the Liberal opposition at Ottawa is \u201cobstructing\u201d the passage of the tariff.Liberal newspapers have not felt it necessary to deny the assertion; and The St.John Sun, a Conservative journal, of more than ordinary ability and fairness, rebukes its confreres by admitting that \u2018it cannot be charged that the opposition has unreasonably protracted the discussion of the several items.\u201d J.J.CurraXN\u2019s curt note to the Secretary of the Board of Trade is yet lengthy enough to give a very good idea, indeed, of the contempt in which the Board 1s held by the Government.Contempt is always the wages of subserviency.TT 1s POSSIBLE that the Street Car Company hasnot yet posted the number of the passengers that its cars are supposed to hold, because it has not yet been able to find out exactly how many they will hold.1f vou are tired taking the large old- fashioned griping pills, try Carter's Little Liver Pills and take some comfort.A man can\u2019t stand everything, One pill a dose.ivy them.Derby is acknowledred to be tite best plug smoking tobacco in the market, 5.10 and 70 cent of the Citizens of Nicolet.They Say the Town is Unable to Meet its Present Obligation and an Additional $8,000 to Reconstruct the Cathedral Would Ruin the Taxpayers.The Position + The latest development in the attempt of the Bishop of Nicolet to.compel the taxpayers of the town to contribute $8,000 towards the reconstruction of the cathedral, is a petition signed by Lhose opposed to tie scheme calling upon the Lieutenant-Gov ernor to intervene.This petition reveals an extraordinary condition of municipal finances and causes wonder that a majority of the ratepayers could be found to vote recently in favor of the by-law to raise the $8,000 required.In fact it was only after the Bishop threatened to move his Episcopal seat to Arthabaska- ville that the by-law was carried.The petition states vhat the total revenue of Nicolet is $2,269, and that if the absolutely necessary expenses of the Corporation are deducted there remains only $1,269.\u201cIn 1891 the Corporation of the town of Nicolet borrowed a sum of $41,000 at 5 per cent, making an annual interest oË 82,050.It has never yet been able to raise à sinking fund to extinguish the said debt and as to the interest on this sum it is very true that it has Leen regularly paid to the creditor, but it is also true that it has been paid only by means of new loans made at a irate higher than 5 per cent.So that the town of Nicolet, in place of having, since 1891, diminished the debt contracted at that time, has increased it, and the said liability is to-day $46,566, and this in addition to that which they now desire to contract.The interest at 5 per cent.with an addition of one and a half per cent.on the said sum of $46,566, necessitate the annual payment of the sum of $2,666; now by taking the total revenue of the city, namely, $2,260 to pay the interest and sinking fund we have an annual deficit of $398, and it must be noted that this is by taking all the revenue of the town of Nicolet without leaving anything for the expenses of administration as of prime necessity.It is therefore perfectly true that the corporation of the town of Nicolet with its annual revenue is not capable of paying the annual interest of 5 per cent on the sum of $41,000.\u201d The petition goes on to say that according to the municipal valuation the taxable property is valued at $265,000, but that this is far in excess of its real value.The sales of land from January 1893 to April 94 amounted to $18,966, according to the municipal valuation, but the amount actually realized was only one-half of this, namely 59,551.The petition, therefore, concludes that the real value of the taxable property is one: half of what it is assessed for, or about $132,500.If the present debt of the town, namely, $46,566, is divided over the real value of the taxable property, it will be found that these properties are taxed to the extent of $35.50 for each $100 of their real value.\u201cIf,\u201d says petition, \u201cwe add to this sum the water aud school taxes which the proprietors are necessarily obliged to pay, and which are also very high, we are obliged to admit that our properties are taxed for almost balf their real values, In the present state of the finances of the town of Nicolet, when it finds itself incapable of facing its obligations formerly contracted, the fact of charging it with a new debt of $8000, which new debt would have for effect to give the town no uew improvement but of which the only aim would be to make proprietors pay obligations against their will, would be probably a course of ruin for the taxpayers.\u201d Derby Plug, the coolest and most enjoyable smoke ever produced.LL The Mysterious Antarctic Region.But why is it that we know so mucb less of the Antarctic than of the Arctic ?Ilow is it that while scores of expeditions, year after year and century after century, have gone to wrest, or to try to wrest, the secret of the northern icy circle, one might almost number on one hand all the organized explorations that have becn undertaken in the southern icy cirele ?Well, one reason is that the Arctic has not always been wooed for itself, but asa means to anend.Men have gone thither more often to find a passage by the northwest, or by the northeast, to Asia and India than to find the North Pole.Then, too, the Arctic circle is reputedly more habitable and hospitable than the Antarctic, and the cold is not so intense \u2014at least, so it has been generally supposed, although there seems now some reason to doubt the superior inclemency and rigor of the Antarctic.The Arctic is certainly richer in animal and vegetable life\u2014even up to the farthest limits yet reached-\u2014than the Antarctic has been found to be in not the remotest parallels, In the Arctic a summer sun does penetrate the frozen recesses and makes genial for a brief period the home of the walrus and the polar bear.But in the Antarctic there is no summer sun, no thawing of fiords and smiling of Arctic verdure.1t is a region of eternal winter and of unmelting snow, where\u2014so far as is known-\u2014not a single plant finds life within the inner circle, and where never a living creature roams.The zoologist is not drawn to the southern circle as he is to the northern, and yet the attractions for him are great, because they have all the charm of the unknown.It is believed that only a few of the hardiest birds build in a few of the sheltered corners of the inner Antarctic; but who knows?Who can say that deep within those awful solitudes may not be revealed the mystery of the life of the fur se.l when he vanishes from the waters of the North Tacilict Or that on some Antarctic continent or island may not be found the priceless remnant of the great auk tribe?We know not, at any rate, what riches or poverty may be there until we go to see.And nobody lias yet gone to see-~beyond the fringe.It 1s a curious fact that no one hasever wintered within the Antarctic, many as have been the expeditions and ships\u2019 companies which, compulsorily or voluntarily, have wintered in the Arctic.Tiere has been no need to do so, for there has been no possible goal beyond, such as India, which first led our mariners into the Arctic, no scientific romance such as has characterized the quest for the Norther] Pole.And yet another thing, differentiates the Arctic from the Antarctic.In tlfe North there is\u2014unless Dr.Nansen is arievously mistaken-\u2014s pole surrounded by water.In the South there is a pole surrounded by land\u2014a polar basin as opposed to a polar continent.While the books and essays, the theories and journals, which have been published concerning the Arctic regions would fill a library, a handful of volume contains all that has the argument that the ingrgysed duty | plugs.The Original of Conan Doyle's Detective is an Rdinburg Surgeo._ There will not be much dispute, says Harper's Weakly, among those who have read Dr.Conan Doyle's \u2018Adventures of Sherlock Holmes\u201d that they are the best detective stories ever written in their kind, and that their kind is in some essential respects a new one.The current detective of fiction is of French origin, and he bears very little resemblance to the current detective of fact.\u201cThe Adventures of dherlock Holmes\u201d for the first time introduce us to a conceivable detective, being a man who cultivated the habit of observation until it has become a second nature or a sixth sense.No discerning reader of the stories can fail to have buen impressed with the possibility that a man who diligently employed and trained ; faculties that all men possess might arrive logic- aily at conclusions which to less-obser- vay} persons seem like magic when it tuius out that they are true.Sherlock Hosines, in à word, makes much more strongly than any previous detective of fiction the effect of being founded ca fact.It was therefore with great satisfaction that the reader of Dr.Cronan Doyle's fascinating stories learned some time since, from the author of his being, that Sherlock Holmes was indeed found ed on fact and drawn from life, and that tho model for him had been æ professor in the medical college in which Dr.Doyle studied.This gentleman has been the object of an extensive and pardonable popular curiosity.He is Dr.Joseph Bell, of the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh, took his degree at twenty- two, was for two years assistant demonstrator of anatomy in the university, then became house surgeon at the Roval Infirmary, where has remained ever since, having for many years been senior surgeon, and lately consulting surgeon.; It is evident that the medical profession offers peculiar advantages for the development of tho faculty oË observation, which, indeed, is as helpful and indispensable to an ideal doctor as to an ideal detective.Diagnosis is, indeed, largely detective work, and those who have had the good fortune to be the patients of a \u201cborn doctor,\u201d when they had the misfortune to be patients at all, often have occasion for astonishment at a knowledge of their condition that seems to them like clairvoyance, buf is in truth the result of a natural faculty for observation assiduously cultivated.It is evident that the original of Sherlock Holmes has the faculty in an em- minent degreo.A reporter for the Pall Mall Gazette has had, and related for his paper, a + highly interesting interview with the original of Sherlock Holmes.Itappears that Dr.Bell has made use of his remarkable faculty not merely in the line of his profession, and for the astonishment of Lis acquaintances, but that it has frequently been employed in actual detective work, and in furtherance of the ends of justice.As might be expected, he has paid special attention to medical jurisprudence.The crown retains in Edinburgh a regular medical adviser in criminal cases, and this medical adviser has for gome twenty years been in the habit of enlisting the services of Dr.Bell, although in these cases he has merely been retained asan expert, and has no official connection with the crown.The reporter who visited Dr.Bell was in Edinburgh to report the Ardlamont murder trial, which has attracted comparatively little attention in this country, but has oxcited a great and widespread interest in England and Scotland; and In this case Dr.Esll has been retained as an expert adviser for the prosecution.While he declined to give any reminiscences of his detective work thas had not already been made ublic, he declared that whatever de- uctions he had besn able to make that had been of service to the authorities nad been \u2018simple and commonplace.\u201d They had come from the habit he himself had formed and had tried to inculcate upen all his sckolars\u2014Conan Doyle among them\u2014the habit of paying attention to what are commonly dismissed as unimportant things.\u2018I always impressed over and over again the vast importance of little distinctions, the endless significance of the trifles.\u201d To what important results this habit may lead is illustrated in the facts of Dr.Bell's career, as well as in Dr.Doyle's fiction founded on those facts.One illustration of it is striking enough to be well worth giving in Dr.Bell's own reported words: \u2018This one struck me as funny at the time.A man walked into the room where 1 was instructing the students, and his case seemed to be a very simple one.wrong with him.scldier in a Highland regiment, and probably a bandsman.\u2019 the that if he had been a soldier it was probably as a bandsman.the Highland regiments.turned out to be nothing but a shoe- the army in his life.was up, I did a pretty cool thing.I tol two of the strongest clerks, or dressers, to remove the man to a side room, and to detain him till I came.1 instantly detected a little blue \u2018D\u2019 branded on his skin.He was a deserter, later, although it is not permitted now.at once clear.\u201d , After one knows that Sherlock Holmes is not entirely the creature of the novelist\u2019s imagination, but that his qualities themselves.In the interview from which we have quoted, Dr.Bell says, very truly and suggestively: \u201cI should just like to say this about they have inculcated in the general public a new source of interest\u2014the kind of interest created by Richard Jetferies and the \u2018Son of the Marshes.\u201d They make many a fellow wiio has before felt very little interest in his life and daily surroundings think that, after all, there may be much more in life if he keeps his eyes open than he had ever dreamed of in kis philosophy.There is a prob- little street incident of trifling occur- vence if one cnce learns how to make the moves.\u201d Whisperings of the Past, À stage-coach\u2014The prompter.À dark horse\u2014The nightmara HHEA, What Rhea, Says About \u201cVin Mariani\u201d you too highly.along without it, stands all fatigues, to \u201cVin Mariani» ing your unequalled preparation to my, friends, RHEA.ever been printed of recordsin the An- Harctic.\u2014[AIl the Yaar Round.) ani - 1 was talking about what was : \u2018Of course, gentlemen,\u201d 1 happened to say, \u2018he has been a I pointed out the swagger in his walk, suggessive of piper;

Water Committee to pay Mr.Pfister Ho for analyzing 48 samples of water, and the Market Committee for $19,000 to o.construct.St.Antoine Market, were referred to the Finance Committee.À report from the Road Committee, ask- ngfor a supplementary appropriation of i 000 to complete the roads required this year, and to carry out the work of the department, Was referred to Finance.Reports to change the City Surveyors title to that of City Engineer, and to have electric wires Placed underground were referred to the oard of Chairmen.The sub-Committee appointed to consider the early closing of stores will meet on Saturday to discuss the question, Ald.Lyall wanted to know when the report asked of the Police Committee would be ready as to the number of burglaries which had occurred since the first of the year.Aid.Robert stated that the report was in course of preparation and would shortly be presented.; Before proceeding with the consideration of the first order ot the day it was decided to adopt the Road and Finance Committee\u2019s report recommending that $4,019 be paid the municipality of St.Louis du Mile End, this amount being one-half the cost of the construction of the sewer on Mount Royal Avenue.Several reports of the Finance Committee, romnending the return of à portion of tie guarantee held by the city tor asphalt mdways from James, Coclirane, Bastien aiValiquette and others were accepted der me discussion.The contractors chimel that à per centage of their guarantee should be refunded for that portion vf the madways being between the tracks, in in- sunces wLere tlie Street Railway had torn w the asphalt.Ald.Beausoleil thought keiore doing this the Company should be made respousible for the condition of such potions of railways.All Prefontaine re- pied that this would be a practical acknowledgement that che city did not consider the Company responsible, as it certainly was, according to the terms of its agreement with the city.The consideration of the Golf Club's lease of a new site in Mount Royal Park was left over until next meeting on motion of Ald, Leclerc.This was before the loose which had been approved by City Attorney Roy had been signed.À sutficient number of the members of the Finance Comunittee having arrived, the lease was signed, but Ald.Leclerc persisted in next meeting in spite of the protests of several members, Ald, Smith said it was only a transfer of site, in the interests of the citizens as well às the members of the club, and should be granted.It was decided to place the question on the first order of the day for the next special meeting, the Mayor stating that as little delay us possible should be offered, as he understood the club had already taken possession of the new site.and there appeared to be no objection to the report, The Finance Committee's report recommending that the city continue with the proprietors of Blache Lane and appear Jointly before the Privy Council in the suit sgainat the C.P, R.tor the alleged illegal king over of that street by the latter Spay, was laid over until next meeting Ainotion of Ald.Prefontaine.* to posal to refund the entire guaran- wir ontractor McKenny for asphalt i og vas referred back to the Finance iy he Ald, Smith and McBride con- Nw.at they had not understood this owe purport of the report when the ra pmimittes recommended it.dite, ecided to place a sewer on Pine ni etion of hackmen\u2019s licenses by itty to pmended by the Finance wowed 0 e ellect in May, 1895, was Mol arg « Savignac.Ald.Jacques, be latter No y spoke in favor of it.mittes conld gretted that the Finance Coma, not grant the reduction at roposed special Ï JUIN by th moved inamendment, seconded © Lyall, that the reduction t Place from the first of May this or ske bad i ainville asked that as this amount a earls \u201cppropriated, how was this $5,000, À ! \\at amount, to be made up !

£10,000 be granted for macadamizing Atwater Avenue.Mr.St.George submitted an agreement prepared for the city, the G.T.R.and the Montreal Street Railway with regard to the level crossing at St.Etienne Street.It provides that the street cars shall stop at the crossing, when the conductor shall determine \u2018if everything is right, a special clause stipulating that the business of the G.T.R.is not to be interferred with.The agreement was sent to the Street Railway Company after which it will be handed to the G.T.R.and will then be forwarded to the Privy Council for consideration.A protest from carriage makers against the by-law concerning wide tires was not entertained.The proprietors of Donancourt Street pe- tioned for the opening of that street between DeLorimier Avenue and Papineau Road.Mr.St.George stated he thought the proprietors should do this at their own expense, but will see whether the city\u2019s finances will permit of compliance with the request.COAL FOR CITY HALL AND

for a reply, but as you have coupled my name with Mr.Huddart\u2019s in intimating that my acceptance of his statement shows undue credulity, thus reflecting on his credibility, it seems necessary that I should undertake the pleasant duty of defending the absent.Though it 1s probably unnecessary it may be well for me to state that I have no business connection with Mr.Huddart, and no interest of any kind in his success beyond that which I believe every Canadian should feel.I much regret none of our own people saw it to their advantage to claim the subsidy which the Government would have readily given for some time past for a fast freight, mail and passenger service undertaken by responsible people.1 like plain speaking, and if there is any reason why a statement made by Mr.Huddart should not be believed it would be well for you to give it.For my part I am certain that there is no ground whatever for so unworthy a suspicion.Mr.Huddart is a well known business man and pract- 1cal managing steamship owner.He has secured the services of Mr.R.S.White, manager of the Fairfield Ship-building Company at the time the Lucania and Campania were built.Mr.White has prepared specifications, aud Mr.Huddart declares that the vessels, which are to be built by leading ship-builders in accordance therewith, will carry three thousand tons of freight in addition to possessing accommodation for the storage of four thousand quarters of chilled beef and ample room for all kinds of dairy products and other exports.This is just what our farmers want and is not nnposs- ible, except as many other things, now accomplished facts, once were impossible.ln my early days of Atlantic crossing it was generally accepted that four hundred knots in the twenty-four hours was an impossible speed that never could be attained.Now tive hundred is a not unusual day\u2019s run.lt was at one time believed that it was Impossible to build a steamer capable of carrying sufficient coal for her own consumption ou à voyage across the Atlantic.In 1859 The Times newspaper pronounced the Suez canal impossible, Edison, probably, was not the first to say *\u2018most things are impossible till some one does them\u201d.Thomas Carlyle wrote in a similar strain when he said \u2018\u2018and you say, it is unpossible.We for our share do purpose, with full view of the enormous dif- ticulty, with total disbelief in the impossibility, to endeavour till we attain it\u201d.All British capitalists cannot know it to be impossible, or the promoters would not have received the overtures that they have from various financial syndicates, nor would the prospects of floating the scheme be extremely encouraging.The farmers and business men of the Dominion do not believe an Atlantic service improved up to the highest standard impossible, and they will not wait till \u201csome day soon\u201d for it when a definite plan for a stated time is before them.Mr.Huddart has a provisional contract with the Canadian Government and when that is ratified, as it will be when it is known generally that the subsidy is for a farmer\u2019s fast freight line, he will be no doubt be properly bound, as he should be, to carry out all he has undertaken and promised.lt is almost certain that the promised annual subsidy of £150,000 will be supplemented by a similar Imperial subsidy of £75,000,and why should it be impossible to make a line of four boats pay with such an assured income ?Many years ago we paid the Allan's £100,000 annual subsidy, and never was money better earned or more wisely expended.I have kept out of party politics in this country, but am a firm believer in the old Liberal policy of making trade free and encouraging it in every possible way, à policy as old as the days of Alfred and one that continues the system of heavily subsidizing lives like the Peninsula and Oriental down to the present day.Whether a fast service can be made to pay or not will be a question for Canadian consideration when Canada is asked to put money into one.If it does not pay the promoters and shareholders, that will not effect Canada.There can be no obligation to pay any subsidy unless earned in accordance with the contract, and certain- * no reason Lo increase the subsidy if the boats are once buil: «nd running, as they cannot find better employment elsewhere.My opinion is that the business will be as profitable to Mr.Huddart and his friends as it was to the Allans, but that is quite a secondary question for Canadian consideration.Ep.HarrER WADE.Quebec, May 4, 1894.A Statement bv Mr.Seller.To the Editor of The Herald: Sir,\u2014In view of the publicity given to my dismissal from a position In the Water Works Department, will you kindly give me space in your paper to state my side of the case.; in the latter part of February ot last year, while I was with Mr.Patton, C.E., Mr.Gower called at the office and inquired ior a mechanical engineer.As [ was just finishing up my work for Mr.Patton, I offered my services to him and Mr.Gower requested me to call on Mr.Davis, superintendent of the Montreal Water Works Mating that he was seeking for a man acquainted with water works machinery.1 had an interview with Mr.Davis at which he told me that he would require very shortly, a mechanical engineer and draughtsman, and also mentioned that Mr.Clendinneng wanted a mechanical engineer to accompany him on a journey, visiting some of the principal cities of the States for the purpose of calling on large iron works, to lcarn of the latest in- provements made in iron foundries.Mr.Davis seemed to be periectly satisfied as to my ability and notified Mr.Clendinneng by telephone that he had an engineer on hand, who he believed was fully qualified to fill the requirements, and made arrangements that 1 should call at once on Mr.Clendinneng, Before leavi., Mr.Davis inquired what salary I would aemand.I told him that 1 would be zet- isfied with $100 per month.He \u201caid that the position most likely would be a permanent one and that he might requie my services before I got through with Mr.Clendinneng, I did not go with Mr.Clendinneng, &s he changed his mind and took a friead ol his with him.I informed Mr, Davis abont it, on which occasion he told me {nat ! should not make ny temporary engag®- ment, as he depended on me.Anyhow should notify him before making any other engagement.Shortly afterwards the Dominion !ridge Co.was seeking for a mechanical engineer, 1 telephoned to Mr.Davis, asking Drawing Office.I.November I spoke again to Mr.Davis an\u2019 he told me then that 1 was worth moré money than I vcs getting, but that it was a bad time to ask for a rise of salary, and that I srould wait until .tter the election.A week or ten days before the election, Mr.Prieur, with his father: in-law, Mr, Senecal went to see Mr.\u2018vis to get Mr.Prieur appointed permanently witi higher salary.Mr.Davis promised to bring the matter regarding the permanent appointment before the committee, hut as to increase of salary he could not do anything on account of Mr.Seller, who wis a competent mechanical engineer, and worth more money tlan he was then getting.Mr.Prieur asked why Mr.Seller's salary could not be 1aised at the same time, but Mr.Davis 1eplied that he cu: id not do it now, it would come later on.A* the last committee meeting Mr.Prieur, as well as Mr.Brousseau, were récom- mended for permanent positions with a salary of irom 3700 to $900 per year.01 the 2Gth of February, I spoke again to Mr.Davis, and he said that he could not do anything now, as the new «iair- man was trying to shove a man in.The whole statement as given above, 1 made to Alderman Costigan, Chairman of th= wa.er Committee, and he stated to me at he was told that there was so much pret in the Drawing Office of the Water Department, that the draughtsman bad to Work overtime.For this reason he asked Mr.Davis whether he had room for a Civil engineer, but Mr.Davis answared in the negative and wi'h this the natter as dro .v In rope on 1 will say that I never lost one hour of my time, on the contrary, i put in many a night at home in the in\u2019er- ests of the department for which oi course I d 4 not receive any compensation, nk that the work I «id will speak for i«selt, whethec 1 was worth the position and the salar ked.salary 1 as W.SELLER, Mechanical Engiacer.N.B \u2014Mr.Davis stated that I was coul by the week, and thercfore one week\u2019s notice was suilicient.To this I will say that nearly all employes engaged by the .nonth receive their pay weekly or every two weeks: ws, Dr.amuel Smiles and Self-Help There is an interesting interview with Dr.Samuel Smiles in The Young Man.Dr.Smiles, it Seems, is eighty-one years of age.Me began life as a country doctor in Scotland; he became an editor in England, and then secretary to a railway company.After that he took to writing, and wrote Stephenson\u2019s life, and it was not till after it had proved a success that he succeeded in getting Self-Help published, The following is the story of vue of the most successful books of the century.A Leeds firm was willing to pub- lisn it and divide the profits, but I wanted it to come out in London, So £ offered it to Routledge; but the Crimean War was then raging, and the book trade was consequently at a very low ebb.1 remember old Routledge saying, \u201cNobody will read books nowadays; newspaper accounts of bhatiles and fights are much more to the public taste.lf you will call any day you will find the manuscript on the counter of my publishing-house.\u201d So I went one day and saw my Self-Help lying amongst a lot of other documents, I picked it up and took it away with me, and pit it on one side, thinking \u2018This won't do.\u201d But as soon as Stephenson was published, I thought, I will bring out that oll manuscript, Seli-Help, and see if | can\u2019t make something of it.So I took it «wir.Murray and said, We vou pub.lis this?\u201d\u2014\"Yes-\u2014what is it->\u2014\u2018It is a book I have had beside pe for some time, wi'l you publish it on the same terms as Stenheusou?'
