Ottawa, March 97.\u2014The resignation of Sir Chas.Hibbert Tupper contitues to be the whole talk here to-night.Those who know the Minister of Justice will not readily believe that once he has made up his mind so far as to impel him to send in his resignation to the Premier he is apt to withdraw in a hurry.Que of the pillars of the Tory party told your correspondent to-night that Sir Charles was bound to rule or ruin.Not being able to rule the Cubinet he is starting out to complete its ruin.Taking Sir Hibberts own estimate of the mediocrity who compose the Ministry, this will not be very difficult.Although the Manitoba School case and the remedial order have nothing{directly to do with Sir Hibbert resigning, still 1t is that which led up toit.Sir Hibbert, as Minister of Justice, prepared the Order-in- Council on which the remedial order wus based.lt was, however, prepared on the distinct understanding that there was to be a general election before a session.He was of the opinion that it was a question on which the people had to pronounce at the polls, so be said, and that the Government had no mandate to settle it by proposing that Parliament should legislate upon it.The Cabinet passed the Order-in-Council and the remedial order as well.The question of dissolution or session was next taken up and the session carried.Sir Hibbert protested, but his protests were in vain, Since that day he has not attended a Cabinet meeting and since yesterday forenoon he has not been near his office in the Department, of Justice.He was understood to be shut up in his own private residence all day, but he would see no one nor could any information be got from him.i matters can be arranged, and he goes back, he or someone else will have to eat rather humble * pie.Mr.Foster was not near his Department to-day, although in good health.It is, however, not believed that he will resign, as Tupper and himself are not too fond of each other.A SURPRISE AT HALIFAX.Sir C.M.Tayper Acenscd of Cowardice in Deseriing Now.Halifax, N.S.March 27.\u2014The news of Sir Hibbert Tupper\u2019s resignation came like ® bolt out of a clear sky.It was the last thing people were thinking about.Who ever heard of a Tupper resigning?Conser- vaiives absolutely refused to talk about the matter* They were simply dazed.As the day worethey recovered sufficient political consciousness to enable them to realize thut the crisis was a very serious one, but beyond that prominent party men refused to express any opinions, and the ward- hecler type pronounced the report a lie and \u2018Grit\u201d canard.Liberals at first could not credit the report; many refused to believe it uutil positive confirmation came from Ottawa, As to the cause of Sir Hibbert\u2019s resignation, very few believe that the refusal of the Premier to dissolve is the sole reason.The fact that a week has elupsed between the adoption of the remedial order and the summoning of Parliament and announcement of the resignation indicates Sir Hibbert has been receiving instructions, some say from Presbyterian Orangemen in Pictou, some Sav from the High Commissioner in London, who realizes that the game is up so far as the present Government is coucerned, and thinks the young Minister of Justice will be safer out office when the smash comes.vi Aprominent Liberal, who holds pronounced

Crown who were interviewed by your correspondent to-day will deny the Statement that Sir Chae.Hibbert Tupper has resigned from the Cabinet.Neither will they coulirm it.It is correct that he has not

the Gov- crnmert will have to go on with these matters, and meet Parliament without a leader in the House, and come out of it all so badly discredited as not to be recognizable.It isa fact that Mr.Foster is to be made leader of the Commons, and this is also another reason for Tupper\u2019s dissatisfaction.He was not in favor of Patterson's retirement.It is said that his resignation has not been accepted.A SUCCESSOR NAMED.J.F.Stairs, of Halifax, May Take]What Tapver Gives Up.Ottawa, March 27.\u2014It is reported that J.F.Stairs, M.P., Halifax, will take the place of Sir Charles Hibbert

and to supply cold storage for \u201csuch products in such of the cities of Great Britain as may be necessary in the interests of trade.Hon.Mr.Dryden replied that since the Dominion Government had promised to act in the matter there was no necessity for the Government to undertake any responsibility in the case.Mr.MeNicol, the Patron member, moved that in the opinion of this House all county officials paid by the county, except county judges, should be elected by a direct vote of municipal electors, the existing system of Government inspection being cou- tinued and office held during effi ciency and good behaviour, that where incompetency or irregularity occurred in any office, the Inspector shall lay his complaint before a non\u2018partizan jury, to be specified by an act of this House, who shall have power to act.This motion was voted down by 65 to 20.Messrs.Reid (Couservative), Pardo and McLean (Liberals), Haggarty (Independent) and both the P.P.A.icmbers voted with the Patrons.A large number of petitions from all over the Province were presented to the Legislature praying that Mr.Haycock\u2019s Medical bill be not allowed to become law.The bill came up to-day for its second reading, and after considerable discussion Mr.Stratton moved an amendment giving the bill a six months hoist.The amendment carried by a vote of 71 to 15.The 14 Patron members and McLean (Lib.) voted against the amendment.The 71 was composed of both Liberals and Conservatives.Valuable hints on house-fur.nishing in to-morrow\u2019s Herald\u2014 the Housc-hunters\u2019 edition.Be sure

IN SPLENDID TRIM FOR A CONTEST.MARITIME VIEW OF THE MANITOBA SCHOOL QUESTION, They Aro Very Tcuchy on the Question of Provincial Rights \u2014-Arbitration Proposed.(Special to the Herald).Halifax, March 27.\u2014The decision or the Dominion Government to face a Session of Parliament came as a surprise to the majority of people.For months the trend of events had been in the direction of a dissolution, and though during the week previous to the issue of the Remedial Order matters seemed to be shaping for a session, very few believed that a session would be held, The decision comes as a relief to a certain extent to both political parties, but particularly to the Conservative'party, which seemed to be paralyzed by the uncertainty as to whether there would be a session or a dissolution.On the whole the Liberals would have preferred the elections for which they had been actively preparing, having nominated candidates in all the constituencies except Hants, Kings, Col- chester, and Cape Breton, and were preparing to do so in these.So far the Conservatives have only held nominating conventions in Antigonish, Cape Breton, and Guysboro.In fact they bad four conventions in Guysboro, but failed to get a man willing to face D.C, Fraser.He will not likely be opposed.It is probable that in the constituencies now held by the Conservatives the sitting members will be in the field, though this is doubtful as regards some of them.The Liberals now in the field are as follows: Antigonish, Hon.C.F.MecIsaac; Annapolis, Col.Spurr ; Cu aberland, H.J.Logan; Digby, J.A.Copp; Guysboro, D.C.Fraser; Halifax, M.J.Dwyer and Wm.Roche; Inverness, Dr.McLennan; Lunen- burg, J.E.Eisenhauer; Pictou, James W.Carmichael and John D., Mcleod; Queens and Shelburne, F.G.Forbes: Yarmouth, Thomas B.Flint; Victoria, 8.C.Campbell.In Dighy a reconsideration is talked of, and in Halifax it is feared that the state of Mr.Dwyer\u2019s health may prevent him accepting the nomination.In that case the nomination may go to John Murphy, dry goods merchant; Mayor Keefe, contractor; W.B.Wallace, barrister, or Dr.E.Farrell.All four are strong and reputable men.Although Hon.A.G.Jones has declined the nomination in Halifax, chiefly because of the exacting character of the campaign for a man of his age in so large a sonsti- tuency as Halifax is, there is a general feeling prevalent that he should be in the new House of Commons.Consequently, it is not » matter of surprise that his name should be mentioned in connection with several other constituencies; and it is possible that he may accept a nomination in some other constituency in which campaign work would be comparatively light.As already stated, opposition to D.C.Fraser in Guysboro is highly improbable, and there is as yet not even a whisper of opposition to Mr.Flint in Yarmouth.In either case opposition would be useless.In Shelburne and Queens so far Mr.Forbes has no opposition.Unless the unexpected happens he can win against all comers.The rospects of the Liberals in Yarmouth, Palifax, Inverness, Antigonish, and Lunenburg are all that could be desired, and even in Tory Pictou and Cumberland, the Liberals have excellent fighting chances.Kings will undoubtedly re-elect Dr.Borden, who has proved himself a man of more than ordinary ability in Parliament.Hants and Colchester are uncertain quantities in Dominion elections, but the Liberals in both counties are united and full of fight and in a position to profit by divisions in the ranks of their opponents.Digby is now held by the Liberals and unless some blunder is made they should have no difficulty in retaining it.In Inverness two Conservative candidates are in the field\u2014 Dr.Cameron and John McKeen\u2014each having a bitter antipathy to the other.Dr.McLennan, the Liberal candidate, is carryingon an aggressive campaign, and should have no difficulty in carrying the county.Victoria,of course,isa close county, but the condition of affairs there warrants the belief that it can be carried by the Liberal.The Liberals also have good fighting chances in both Cape Breton and Riehmond, where, as yet, they have not nominated candidates.Altogether taking a very moderate view of the situation, the Liberals are quite confident that they can considerably more than divide the representation in the House of Commons, where now they have only four members\u2014Fraser, Forbes, Flint and Bowers, In this Province the trade question will be the main issue, though the financial and scandal record of the Government will play an important part.Many Conservatives are not only heartily sick of the National Policy, but many of them are also disgusted with the abominable scandals whichbesmirch the Government's reputation.These may not all vote for the Liberal candidates; those of them who won\u2019t will \u201c\u2018take to the woods\u201d on election day.That is a marked feature of Conservatism in the Maritime Provinces when overshadowing issues are before the electorate.What part the Manitoba School Question will play in Nova Scotia depends upon circumstances.If Manitoba acts upon the Remedial Order to the extent of ameliorating actual grievances of the Roman Catholic minority in that Province, all parties will acquiesce in her action, But if the Dominion Government should seriously attempt to coerce Manitoba into emasculating her ublic school system\u2014which the British rivy Council has declared to be constitutional and quite within her provincial owers\u2014it will evoke a very angry feeling.he people of Nova Scotia are sensitive on the question of provincial rights, and var- ticularly with regard to the maintenanos of their public school system ; and while they agree that actual grievances of the minority in Manitoba should be redressed by the Government and Legislature of that Province, they will not agree that it is either wise or just that Manitoba\u2019s public school system should be destroyed and Separate Schools re-imposed in that Province, by the Federal authority, contrary to the well understood wishes of a large majority of the people of that Province.It coercion of this character is attempted it would ndt be surprising if the Manitoba School Question should become as much of a burning issue down by the shores of the sounding sea as it is in Manitoba or Quebec.Both Conservatives and Liberals would regret to see the question become an aggravating issue in Federal polities.We do not want any race and creed war in this Province.Consequently, there is a widespread hope that justice can be done the Manitoba minority without impairing the efficiency of the publie school system of that Province; but if the Federal authorities attempt to coerce Manitoba wto destroying her public school law, which the highest judicial authority in the Empire has declared to be constitutional, it can be aepended upon that the people of Nova Scotia and of the Maritime Provinces generally will view such a proceeding with extreme disfavor, and the question of provincial rights will come to the front in a very scute form, It is earnestly hoped by Protestants and Catholics alike that wise and moderate counsels will prevail both at Winnipeg and at Ottawa, and that Canada will be spared the calamity of being convulsed by a race and creed war which might extend from ocean to ocean, Why should not this burning question be settled by an arbitration which could agree on a fair and honorable compromise\u2014an arbftration composed, say, of five members, one each to be appointed by the Dominion Jovernment, the Manitoba Goverament and the Manitoba minority, and the other two by two of the provinces, say Nova Scotia aud British Columbia.The idea is worth considering.KILLED AMY THILL.ACTOR JOHN RIGELOW MURDERED THE GIRL HE LOVED.He Concluded Matters by Blowing ou\u2019 His Own Erains\u2014Sad New York 'iIragedy.New York, March 27.\u2014John Bigelow, an actor, shot and killed Amy Thill, an actress, to.day in the furnished room of the woman at 15 West Twenty-fourth Street, and then turned the weapon, a revolver of large calibre, to his own head and blew out his brains.Thedoubletragedy was not discovered until almost evening, when both bodies were found lying cold and blosdy on the floor of the modest apartment where the crime had been committed.None of those in the house could assign a motive for the deed.Bigelow was about 30 years old, and the young woman was not more thau 25.The Coroner tound two letters on the table which Miss Thill had written the evening before.One was addressed to ber mother, Mme.Thill, 812 Miller Avenue, Minneapolis, and the other to 8 S.Karsch, manager of a theatrical paper at 1,55 Broadway.Amy Thill and her two sisters, Louise and Mary, also actresses, lived inthe24th St.house together for several months.Loaise and Marie secured an engagement a fortnight ago with Dickson\u2019s *\u2018Iucog\u201d Company, which was booked to open in HKrie, Pa., last night.\u2018y's last engagement was with Joseph Haworth\u2019s Company, which played \u2018\u2018Rose- uw.\u201d at the Star.Jokn E.Bigelow was the son of James Bigelow, ex-mayor of Morristown, N.J., who is a retired lawyer.The young man lived at 231 West 38th Street., and just before the Christmas holidays was a member of Sidney Drew\u2019s Co.It was during this engagement that he met Amy Thrill.He fell in love with her.She was also a member of the company, and the two decided to leave it at Cl-istmas.Since then neither of them have been, it ie said, engaged in professional work.Bigelow is said to have been offered an engagement but he refused to accept it unless Miss Amy Thill was also engaged.BISMARCK'S VISITORS, More

ARISTOCRACY.THE MANITOBA LEGISLATURE TO ADJOURN UNTIL MAY.GOVERNMENT WILL CONSULT CONSTITUTIONAL AUTHORITIES.The Principle of Equal Rights for All Shall be Dearer than Cone © federation Iwself, (Special to the Herald.) Winnipeg, March 27.\u2014Politicians ore doing a great deal of thinking, but not much talking, on the present position of the school question.The exact course of the Greenway Government is not yet known, but it in all likelihood will be such as to debar the Federal Parliament from passing remedial legislation at the coming session.The desire seems to be to avoid open conflict with the Federal authorities just now and also to give precedence to greater nutional questions at the Federal elections which will soon be held throughout Canada, as the whole country is suffering from the protective tariff, extravagance and corruption of the present Government at Ottawa.Premier Bowell's plan evidently was to force the school question to the front particularly im Quebec, thus diverting attention from the bad record of his Government and securing a victory at the polls: If the school question can be kept in 8 secondary position as it.should be, there i8 little doubt of the result.The Federal elections will be overwhelmingly in favor of the Liberal party.With a Liberal Government at Ottawa and a Liberal Government at Winnipeg the school question could be speedily, amicably and permanently settled while the people of Canada would be at the same time relieved of the burdens of high tariff and corrupt Government.In\u2019 the Legislature this evening the Attor- ney-General stated in Premier Greenway\u2019s absence that the Government\u2019s course will be announced to-morrow afternoon.He also gave notice that he will move on Friday that the House adjourn until May 9.It is understood no definite action has vet been taken by the Government.The early adjournment is vo allow time to consult the best constitutional authorities on the question, to look thoroughly into all phases of the subject and possible contingencies so that when action is taken there can be no false step made.It is regarded as altogether too momentous a question to be hastily disposed of.The debate is sure to be a long and animated one and members of the Legislature who are mostly engaged in agricultural pursuits are anxious to get home to attend the seeding operations.When they return in May they will be prepared to stay with the job until harvest time.THE SITUATION DISCUSSED.Winnipeg, March 27.\u2014There is now little doubt that whatever course the Government may pursue, the Opposition in the Legislature will vote against any proposal to reject the remedial order in its entirety and will urge some form of compromise.They may suggest the settling of the question by arbitration.Premier Greenway is as dumb as an oyster as to his intentions, so also are the members of his Cabinet, but there is a growing idea that they may offer a purely secular schoel system us an alternate.This is not likely to help matters, however, for the Catholic and the Protestant clergy will undoubtedly refuse to sanction what they call Godless schools, Copies of the remedial order have been printed and are being distributed among the members of the Legislature.The order will certainly \u2018come up for discussion tomorrow, probably at the evening session.Unless most of the members are anxious to air their views, the answer may be decided on and prorogation take place by the end of the week.°° The Orange Grand Lodge of Manitoba opened its sessions here to-night.The Orangemen will, undoubtedly, take some action on the all-absorbing School Question.AN ATTEMPT TO COERCE.The Free Press this morning had the following to say editorially : \u2018\u2018 Sir Mackenzie Bowells demand that separate schools shall be re.established in Manitoba as they were before the Act of 1890, has been read to the Legislature, and awaits action thereon.As we have before stated, there is no probability of this Legislature complying with the order, and we may add that the wisdom of sending an order in the terms of the present one is very doubtful, It is an attempt so coerce Manitoba at the dictation of those by whom this people will not be coerced, and tends to increase the difficulty of finding a happier solution of the question.\u201d \u2018\u2018MANITOBA\u2019S ANSWER,\u201d The Tribune which isthe organ of the Greenway Government contains this editorial to-night.It is regarded as official and may be taken as Mr.Greenway\u2019s reply to the remedial order.It is headed: \u201cManitoba's Answer,\u201d and says: *\u201cThe remedial order has been read in the Legislature.We are asked to restore the school system that was in operation previous to 1890.Let Quebec and Ottawa rest assured that the restoration will never be made.Manitoba has too keen a sense of justice, too much regard for truth and equity, to recognize as a religious.aristocracy an element of its population by no means the most worthy.As a civilized people attempting to realize in a measure the ideals of the nineteenth century, Manitobans will not silently submit to the preposterous demand that they should turn back the wheels of progress three hundred years.They will stubbornly refuse to supplant modern civilization by mediævalism.\u201cThis whole question is not a quarrel between Manitoba and the Dominion, it is not even a quarrel between races and creeds, It is a struggle as to whether] the ideals of the nineteenth century or the ideals of the dark ages shall prevail.The act of 1890 was designed to give to every child in the land the benefit of a common school education.It recognized neither class nor creed, but placed ell on the same level of common citizenship.It aimed at developing in this noble land a unity of sentiment a strong feeling of brotherhood, and it sought to sink all prejudices and class distinctions through making all equal in the sight of the law.Could anything be more wise 7 Could anything be more just ?Yet, what was the attitude of the Romun Catholic Church.Standing aside, wrapped up in ity | Stormy Weather for March\u2014then

be considered a religious aristocracy.It refused to have the children \u2018of its members receive instruction side by side with the children of those who are their superiors in intelligence and wisdom.And on what grounds?It said Catholics were promised different treatment from others by the act that called the Province into existence.Then when shown that, even if this were true, which it is not, no just citizen would claim a fulfilment of the promise, since it would violate the foundation principles of state organization\u2014all rights to all\u2014it gave as its second reason that the public schools are Protestant.If the refusal of a Romun Catholic to act as a member of the department of education, and of the archbishop to act as a member of the advisory board could make the schools Protestant, then they are 80; otherwise not a shadow of proof has been advanced in support of this claim.\u201cWhy does not the Roman Catholic church out with the truth at once?Why not advance the real reason for discontent?Rome is not in accord with the spirit of the age, it is wedded to a dead past.Mediæv- alism cannot or will not coalesce with modern thought.In place of the act of 1890 what substitute is offered?We are asked to set creed against creed, and race against race, to break up the unity that should exist, to mutually support each other in wrong-doing, to make the State the teacher of religious truth, for when Romanists and non-Romanists combine their wealth and then draw from the joint fund, it is as clear as day that each is a partner in the work of the other.How can any Roimanist believing that Protestant schools are teaching errors, conscientiously support them,and how can and Protestant believing that the religious teaching of the Roman Church is false agree that a portion of his taxes should be devoted towards the support of such teaching.No, auy one who has the least sense of justice, any one who is patriotic even in the slightest degree, any one who believes that all citizens are equal in the sight of the law, and that what is good enough for one 1s good enough for all, must stand by the Act of 1890.And this is our answer to Quebec.\u201c\u201cWefshall not allow the [State to support religion; we shall not allow the Church to control the State; we shall not return to the civilization of the Dark Ages; we shall not recognize Rome as better or in any way different from others.We shall hold to the principles of equal rights for all, and that principle shall be dearer to us than Confederation itself.\u201d DALTON M\u2019CARTHY SPEAKS.Almonte, March 27.\u2014Dalton McCarthy spoke on the Manitoba school question here to-night.He started in by regretting that the matter had been brought into politics on the eve of a contest as it would interfere with discussion on fiscal and other important matters.He discussed all the stages of the trouble and wound up by saying that the remedial order only brought the question before Parliament and that it was one for the people to look to and select representatives who would deal with it on its merits as man to man and not as a political question, BRAKEMAN

IHarkaway, Afloat and Ashore, the property of Mr.J.B.Sparrow.\u201d There was a very fair house assembled and the audience had evidently gone with the intention of being kind and encouraging, but the contrast between their utter bewilderment at the final fall of the curtain, and their so evident {friendly intentions at the beginning indicated hetter than published comment could the merits of the romantic historic production, The proceeds of these performances go to a worthy charity, and this being the case the presentations receive well intentioned Jposronage.Granting all this an even at the risk of seeming uncharitable it must be regretfully admitted that charity in this case certainly follows up her proverbial role and covers a multitude of sins, There is plenty of incident in \u201cJack Harkawny.\u201d The costumes are pretty, and fit the gentlemen nicely.The scenic effects are on a very ambitious scale, particularly the wreck of the Fairy Queen, uring which the efforts .of the hero, Mr.Edwin Varney, to keep himself under water and at the same time avoid flattening out the raging billows were rewarded by the sympathy of the house.The cast is large, thers are seventeen men and two women.If ono were to take the play seriously it might be suggested that a few more women might be scattered about, but then if one were to take the play seriously many suggestions might be made, anyone of which so long as it altered the existing state of things could not fail to effest an improvement, al Mr.Edwin Varney, as Jack Harkaway, tried hard to fill an exacting part.Harvey, his schoolinate, represented by J.D.Mc- Quillan, and Professor Mole, the instructor, Ly Owen Wynne, were very well presented.As the arch villain, Henry Hunston, H, Wilkes Steward went through a great many purposeless and unnecessary villianies in excellent style.Mrs.J.C.Copping made a pretty Emily Travers, and Mrs.David McArthur, who had a rather thankless task in representing Sophrinista Prym, acted with verve and spirit.- \u201cNellie,\u201d who made her debut before the public last night, was well up in her part and answered to her cue like a veteran.Mr.J.B.Sparrow intends to take his \u2018property\u201d out on the road.AUADEMY OF MUSIC.\u201cLouls XI\u201d is not a pretty play, but the part has been chosen by most of the men who essay the legitimate, and has been approved by all who like that sort of thing.Mr.Keene's conception, of which he gave à most successful interpretation last night at the Academy, is entirely conventional.He makes the most of the horrible ; and the bed chamber scene and the death scene are painfully realistic in hig hands.His work in Louis is entirely characteristic, which with those who know Mr, Keene's methods is sufficiently expressive.Mr.Keene was recalled after each act last night.Mr.Hennigs Nemours was forceful and Mr.Lowell's Dauphin a very pleasing presentation.Miss Lawrence is av engaging Marie.The other parts are satisfactorily taken.The piece is well staged.To-night \u201cOthello\u201d will be presented.PHILHARMONIC CONCERTS.The plans for the Philharmonic concerts will be open to the public at

and from 13 to 17 for girls.In Austria and Germany men seldom marry if under 21, although the law afows it at 18, Girls may wed at 16 in these countries.In Egypt boys of 13 are often married, and

CHINA.A Number of Kilns in Montreal Good firing {is of absolute impcrrance to the china decorator.The most exquisite painting on china has no value un- if is properly fired;; while the artist's work, as an artist, is finished when ehe sends her work to a kiln and it is not necessary, as Some suppose, that she ghould fire the china as well.It is of course necessary that she understand the effect that the heat will have on the colors used and that the operator of the kilm have the same knéwledge.On the \u201cprinciple that in order to have a thing well done one must do it oneself, the artist often does the firlng, as in the School of Art and Design, in this city, where Miss Whitney assists Miss Phillips, the principal, in the branch of china decorating, Here a gas kiln is used and the process of firing requires about three hours; if the china is packed and flred late in the afternoon it is allowed to cool gradually and is not unpacked until the following morning.A kiln may be quite closely packed by pladng bits of unylaz.ed clay between the plates or pieces to prevent marring.Some colors require a greater dégree of heat than others; carmine is called the test color because it väries môm in shade than any other ac- conding to the degree of heat it reaches.Beside the firing of the color the kiln gperator must see that the china takew an éven glaze which is accomplished by keeping the kiln in a certain degree of heat.\u2018But although the firing is a careful and important tagk the amateur must not expect it to improve bad painting.The \u201cPlayers\u201d made a

The honorable gentleman was good enough to tell us, not many hours since, that were this tariff not adopted, every manufactory in Canada would be closed in two years.Sir, I had the curiosity, not very long ago, to enquire from a gentleman himself a very large shareholder in a very important cotton manu- factory, what was the real condition of this manufactory, under the existing 1712 per cent.tariff.As a practical illustration will convey to the House a correct knowledge of the working of the old tariff far better than a theoretical discussion, L call the attention of hone orable members to the facts which that gentleman was kind enough to supply me with.He told me that the total capital employed in that factory amounted to $300,000.The business done in 1878 was $430,000, and the net profits (not the gross) amoitnted, under the 171, per cent.tariff, to the miserable figures of $7C,0C0, a paltry 25 per cent, for an in- d-stry which then employed 270 hands, Thesel doubtless, are the kind of indus- tris that were to be extinguished within two years under the 172 per cent, tarif, and this tariff will give them an additional bounty of 12!3 per cent, if I correctly took down the figures of that hon.oralle gentleman.Sir, I Believe the real state of the case is this, that of alt classes in Canada, excepting the agricultural classes, those who suftered least from the hard times were those manufac- \u2018turers who were conducting their business prudently and properly.They got their matemaly cheaper, The rate of interest was not raised against them, and they had a fair opportunity of carrying on their business, no matter what foreign competition might be brought against them.\u2014~Mr, Cartwright.oo.Shakespeare\u2019s *\u201c Hamlet\u201d lives in James Young, who appears at the Queen's next week.never for that reason, as for its meaning, it applies to The \u201c Slater\u201d $3 Shoe., Jeo.T.Slater & Sons, , fisting of house furniture, pianos, ete.A an \u2014.\u201cOLD FAITHFUL\u201d an expression that wears out, and MONTREAL.SK WV VV VVVS \u2014 \u2014 A Haunted Lumber Camp.Strange tales have come from the Sourdnahunk region this season in regard to Jack Reed's depot camp on the road leading to Strickland\u2019s Mountain.The camp is built over the grave of a man who was killed i some unknown way, and the woodsmen say the place is haunted.At any rate on every moonlight night in the winter time a listener standing outside the camp can hear the sound of rolling stones that apparently are grating, grinding, rattling, plunking each other, as though sliding down a steep bank.Diligent search has been made for the source of this strange noise, but so far no one has solved the mystery.Old lumbermen remember that the camp has been considered to be haunted for many years, and the sound of the rolling stones has been heard on many a moonlight night in the past.Many lumbermen who are on their way into the Sourdnahunk region prefer to push by the depot camp and take a night trgmp rather than sleep over that grave and hear thiose grinding, rolling stones.INSOLVENT NGTICE.Baukrupt Stock for Sale by Public Auction.In the matter of DESORMIER FRERES, of Joliette, P.Q.We have received instructions from the curator, John McD.Hains, to sell by public auction al our rooms, 69 St.James treet, Montreal, on Wednesday, April 3rd, 1895, at 11 o'clock a,in., the following assets belonging to this estate, en bloc, viz.: Stock in trade, comprising dry goods (the whole purchased within one year), amounting as per inventory to.$10,689 27 Terme\u2014One-third cash, balance by notes at two and four months, with interest at seven per cent.per annum, and satisfactorily secured.urchaser to deposit one thousand dollars at the time of sale.Btock with the Inventory may be seen on application at the insolveunt\u2019s store in J oliette, and full particulars can be obtained at the office of the curator, Irasor Building, 43 St.Sacrament Street, Montroal, JOHN McD.HAINS, Curator.MARCOIYTE BROS., Anctioneers Montreal, 27th March, 1695.Every Time You Touch It.That is, a Nordheimer No.8 Piano, you stop and listen to the purity and singing quality of the tone.togots .cee A.&'S.Nordheimer, 818 St.James St, Fhat's the Piano ROVINCE OF QUEBEC, DISTRICT OF Montreal, No.8,633.Circuit Court.Alfred Caron, laintiff, vs.William Cooper, defendant, On the 6th day of April, 1695, at ter of the olock in the forenoon, at Tre domicile of the sald defendants, No.261 Bour, cois Strect, in the City of Montreal, will be sold by authority af justice, all the goods and chattols of the said defendant saized in this cause, consistin of household furniture, etc.Terms cash, H, Shs Maurice, B.B,C, Montreal, March 27th, ROVINCE OF QUEBEC, DISTRICT OF ;

\u201cWhat has become of him?\u2019 she asked, \u201cHeaven knows.He got out of the hotel all right, and then he skipped.You necdn\u2019t say anything.Iknow why he has gone.He deserted you.\u201d \u201cHow did you know that?\u201d \u2018\u2018Oh, I understand his whole plot.I .know how he got tho information as to your hiding place.He bribed a letter- carrier after failing with all your servants.He got the postmark, of course, in that way.I learned what he was up to and watch>d him.It was none of my business, you know, as I told you that svening on the pier, but I was bound to o it.\u201d \u201cI shall thank you as long as I live.\u201d \u2018Don\u2019t think of it.Well, I found out that he was to leave town for Albany.I missed his train but, caught the next, and was only a little behind him.It wasn\u2019t very hard to trace him to the Dalavan, but it took time.As soon as I saw \u2018Mr.and Mrs.Mason\u2019 on the register in his handwriting, I saw the whole game.He'd made an appointment for you in Mrs.Mason\u2019s name.\u2019 Carroll\u2019s voice trembled as he recalled his emotions at the moment of that discovery.HJ ust as we\u2014that is, just as I\u2014'\u201d he continued.\u201cWas there some one with you?\u2019 cried y.\u201cWell, yes;

and that she had made wretched misuse of it.She wished for nothing better than to return to him and never leave him again.She commended Carroll to her husband as one who had proven a true friend.She told Carroll that she had done this when he came the next day, and he pretended that he could have asked for nothing more in the world.\u201c\u2018And, by the way, \u2019\u2019 he added, \u2018\u2018Iought to tell you now to be prepared for a considerable change when you see Dr.Lynde.I'm told you'll be able to see in a few days, and as soon as your eyes are all right you can go home at once.\u2019\u2019 \u201c\u2018A change?\u2018He is considerably improved.\u2019\u2019 \u201cI thank God for it; but whether he is to regain his health or to remain a hopeless invalid, I shall never leave him again when once we are reunited.I believe that I have always had a deep feeling for the sacredness of the marriage tie; but I have a thousand times more now.If one wishes to know how holy it is he must get & glimpse into the soul of one who is striving to break and dishonor it.\u2019 \u201cI guess you\u2019ve stated it rightly,\u201d\u201d said Carroll, thoughtfully.\u2018I don\u2019t really know how such a fellow feels, but I'm dead sure of one thing\u2014he doesn\u2019t love the woman.\u201d Which is à very homely way of stating an important fact.As Carroll spoke some one entered the room.\u201cWho is that?\u201d cried Amy.\u201c\u2018It\u2019s the doctor,\u201d\u2019 responded Carroll.\u2018\u2018He mays that you may see to-day,\u2019\u2019 said the sister, gently, \u2018\u2018but it will only be for a little while.\u2019\u2019 \u2018\u2018To see again!\u2019 cried Amy.\u2018\u2018It seems years that I have been blind.How long must time have seemed to him,\u2019\u2019 she added softly.She was sitting in a great chair; and after the window had been somewhat darkened the doctor passed behind her, and proceeded to undo the bandage that covered her eyes.In an instant she saw Carrol}, curlous- ly disfigured by the loss of his eyebrow and by the close cropping of his hair LIGHT AT LAST.which symmetry had necessitated.Then she saw the sister; and a moment later, turning, saw the doctor.It was Dr.Lynde.They were alone In the room when she recovered from her surprise and looked around for the others.Then they sat together for a long time while he told of his recovery.It appeared that his case from the first had been totally misunderstood.It had been & surgical, not a medical case, depending upon a direct injury to the spine, which, upon discovery, had been recognized as remediable.The soulless scientist from the fatherland had accomplished it.Lynde had wished his wife to know nothing about this until he was fully restored, and for that reason had delayed her return to him.The reader will not need to be informed that Lynde was the shrewd and discreet friend who had accompanied Carroll to Albany, and to whose indomitable courage the escape of all of them from the burning hotel was due.Nor is there need to carry the fortunate conclusion of the story into detail, for it goes without saying that two persons whose lives had come so near to shipwreck would be just the very ones to \u2018\u2018live happily ever afterwards.[TRE END.] WE DON\u2019T WANT THEM AT ALL.Weare now going to move away, and have a large supply of stock which we want to use up.Price is no consideration, The best pictures for the price of the ordinary kind.Stock no use to us;

Professor Kneeland, principal of McGill Normal School, and Principal Marsten, ot Coaticook, have made a report on the subject.Rev.Mr.Rexford, when seen by a Herald representative, said that he could not say what the Text-book Committee Lad decided on before the consideration of the report by the Protestant Committee.\u2018\u201cThis much I can said,\u201d say he, \u2018\u2018that the changes will not be soextensive as people think.We are rather conservative in our actions, and we certainly do not make changes for which there is nov good reason.As an educationist I am compelied to say that the books which it is proposed to introduce are better far than the old ones.Parents have aright to complain if there is too great a demand made upon their purses because of such changes, but in this case they will find, if all the changes are finally decided upon in May, that these will be few indeed.\u201d Amorg the books which are likely to be altered are reading-books, spelling-books (already in use in Montreal), copy-books and geography primers.THE SOCIAL WORLD.Mrs.Frank Mosely gave a very pretty Ladies Progressive Euchre party on \u2018Tuesday afternoon at her residence on Drum- mond Street.Mrs.Mosely received in a handsome gown of mauve silk trimmed with accordion plalted chiffon, Among the guests were: Mrs John Ogilvie, Miss Jean gilvie, Mrs T G Shaughnessy, Mrs H T Ogilvie, Mrs A W Ogilvie, Mrs Robin Adair, Mrs John MacDougall, Mrs A E Smith, Mrs R A E Greenshields, Mrs Cat- tanach, of Toronto, Miss May Acer, Miss Blanche Acer, Miss Edith'Atwater,Mrs W S Brown, Miss Brainerd, Miss Card, Mrs F Bond, Miss Bond, Miss Christie, Mrs M E Davis, Mrs M H Davis, Miss Deeran, Miss Cassils, Miss Amy Cassils, Miss Glass, Miss Hanmford, Mrs Geo Labbe, Mrs Robert Linton, Mrs T McMurtry, Mrs T Hodgson, Mrs H O Mosely, Miss McDup- nough, Mrs Robert McGibbon, Mrs J D Patterson, Mrs H Ritchie, Mrs Klock, Mrs R M Riddell, Miss Parson, Miss Robb, Mrs T G Ross, Miss Whitehead, Miss Thompson, Mrs Robert Southam, Mrs T Shaw, Miss Gilman, Miss Jean Gilman.The prizes were very pretty.The first prize consisted of a pretty chatelaine and was won by Mrs.J.MacDougall, The other prizes consisted of a silver stamp box, a sport case, and a silver flower dish, Mrs H Henderson, of St.Famille Street, gave a Progressive Euchre party on Tuesday afternoon.Among the guests were noticed: Mrs J A Wright, Mrs C J Slater, Mrs 8 Ewing, Mrs James Fenwick, Mrs A Holden, Mrs John Lewis, Mrs John G McGill, Miss Davis, Mrs W King, Mrs H A Vennor.Mrs.Frank Mosely left for New York yesterday morning, Mis.R.G.Reid, of Drummond Street, who has been confined to her apartments with la grippe, is convalescing._\u2014 RESTORED TO POWER.Mr.nuchanan of Leamington Restores His Health With Dodd\u2019s Kidney Pills.Leamington, Ont,, March 28,\u2014There has been quite a run on the druggists throughs out this county for the specific remedy well known under the title of Dodd\u2019s Kidney Pills.The cause of this unparalleled demand is the wonderful benefit which Mr.Sherman Buchanan of this place has derived from the use of the medicine.Mr.Buchanan has suffered for over a year from a very severe form of kidney complaint and became utterly helpless, his digestive organs refusing todo their work.He tried the above meéntioned remedy with entire success, and his exordiums on the means of his cure have been instrumental in inducing the enormous demand on the county druggists.SHIPMAN & GRIFFITH, FUNERAL DIRECTORS & EMBALMERS 2356 ST.CATHERINE ST.MODERATE CHARGES, ALWAYS OPEN, TELEPHONE 3020.Home?$25.00 per month and interest at © p.c.on balances, buys a Handsome Stone Front House, Three Stories and Extension Kitchen On St, Denis Street.PARENT BAUS, 97 St.James St.Peoples Bank Building.Colonial House, Phillips Square.CARPET - DEP Spring 1895 - Having been appointed Sole Agents (in Montreal) for Templeton\u2019s Imperial Axminster Carpets we are now prepared to show a Large and Beautiful Assortment of those goods in new designs and colorings.Our assortment in all makes of Carpets is very complete, and comprises all the Newest Shades and Artistic Designs;
