DAILY HERALD.SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 1895.MARIPOSA'S PASSENGERS TAKEN OFF BY THE ALLAN LINE STEAMER SARDINIAN.MOST OF THE CREW RETURNING ON THE AUSTRIAN.Pirates Made Their Appoesrance, but the Ship was Protected by nn Bris tish Cruisker\u2014Mariposa in a Bad Position, All doubt was removed yesterday of the Identity of the steamship stranded in the Straits of Belle Isle.The Allan Line Steamship Austrian arrived up in the gulf and at the firse signal station she confirmed the fears that it was the Deminion Line Steamship Mariposa.The Austrian passed Father Point at 11.15 last night and further particulars of the disaster were received.One of the most important pieces of intelligence was the news that the Mariposa\u2019s passengers were taken off by the Allan Line Steamship Sardinian outward bound and will be in England as soon as they would had not their steamer met with such a serious mishap.The despatch from Father Point re- celved by the Herald at an early hour this morning contains the following information: \u201c1 bearded the Steamship Austrian and found that she had 43 of the crew of the wrecked S.5.Mariposa on board.The passengers have been transferred safely to the R.M.S.Sardinian, bound for Liverpool.Captain Cave and a few hands stand by the steamer.No lives were lost.\u201cThe Mariposa is stranded to the west of Point Amour, in an exposed position, lying on a rocky bottom, full of water.\u201cThe Belle Isle plrates were already beginning to gather like carrion around the ship, but H.M.S.Buzzard put in an appearance at the right moment to keep them off.\u201cCaptain Cave has plenty of provisions for all requirements.The tug Lord Stanley left Quebec this morning to proceed to Belle Isle with all haste and render all the assistance possible.She calls here to-night for Information and should reach Point Amour on Sunday.\u201cThe ship's crew were landing snhcep and cattle from the Mariposa when the Austrian left them.\u201d A gentleman from Newfoundland in conversation with a Herald reporter yesterday said: \u2018If the ship aground in the Straits of Belle Isle proves to be the Mar- iposa, they will never get her off.1 have been familiar with the coast since I was a boy,and it is about the wickedest imaginable.Except a ship, particularly a large iron ship, gets aflont within twenty-foun hours after she has struck, her doom is glmost certainly sealdd.The weather there is very changeable,and an undertow comers in that will grind a hole in a ship\u2019s bot\u201d | tom upon the sharp teeth of reck with which the place is full, in a very short space of time.I was driven ashore there in a small schooner once, and we only got off by lightening her cargo, but it was an exceedingly uncomfortable position.\u201cIt is a mistake to allow the captains of liners to act as their own pilots.They know all about evervthing theoretically, of course, hat could mot compare with some of the fishermen or small ship owner captains wto could bring them through the most dangerous passages almost blindfolded.I remember one such who brought H.M.S.Eclipse through when no one else could have done it.Another I sailed with from St.Pierre to Boston could not write his own name and caloulated the position of every light amd buoy by dead reckoning.He was altogether unacquaimt- ed with the coast further south and relied more or less on what people had told him regarding the Nights.1 assisted by reading the \u201cCoast Pilot\u2019 to him every day, and we came through all right.You can imagins what sort of a pilot & man like that must make on a coast with which he was quite familiar.\u201d Quebec, Sept.27.\u2014~The wrecking steamer Lord Stanley with schooner G.T.D., steam pumps and appliances left port at eleven a.m.to go to the assistance of the stranded Dominion Line Steamship Mariposa.If all goes well she will reach there on Sunday afternoon.The Mariposa ig supposed to have struck the same reef as that on which the British cruiser Lilly was wrecked some years ago.She must have got there Monday night or early Tuesday morning.She is the third steamship that has come to grief on the St.Lawrence route this season, the others {Including one Thomson and two Dominion liners.THE VACANT PORTFOLIO Wm, Smith, M.P.for South Ontario, for Minister of Agriculinre.Whitby, Ont., Sept.37.\u2014Ths executive of the Liberal-Conservative Association of South Ontarfo, together with a num- per of other gentlemen who are prominent residents of this county, met at the Royal Hotel here this afternoon in regard to the appointment of a Minister of Agriculture for Canada in the place of Hon.A.R.Angers.It was unanimously resolved that a practical farmer should hold this portfolio, and action was taken towards directing the attention of Sir Mackenzie Bowell to the suitability of Wm.Smith, M.P.for South Ontario, as a thoroughly representative farmer and experienced legislator for office by the appointment of a large and influential deputation to wait upon the Premier at Ottawa as soon as an engagement to receive it can be arranged by telegraph.HEIR TO $250,000.Joseph Fallowfield of Brampton the Lucky Man.Toronto, Sept.27.\u2014Joseph' Fallowtield,, of Brampton, {s perhaps the happiest man in Canada to-day.He is a laborer in almost destitute circumstances, and has a wife and five gmall children.This morning he received a cablegram from London, telling him that an uncle had died in London, leaving him $260,000.He came to Toronto this afternoon, and aves to-night for New York, whence ' è salls for England to-morrow morning.A Noted Clown Pend, London, Sept.27.\u2014Harry Payne, pantomine clown, is dead.the \\ THE TAILLON CANDIDATE.HON, M, F, HACKETT ENDORSES MR.MeDONNELL And Incidentally Makes Another Promise to Remove the Business Tax, Although C.A.McDonnell may disagree with the Paris loan and the business tax, and may even accept the invitation to go to Quebec as a critic of the Government, the Taillon Administration will endorse his candidature and mark him as their own.Hon.M.F.Hackett made this known at the meeting in St.Maurice Street rink last night, which was presided over by Senator Murphy.A large platform was erected, on which the stalwarts of the Conservative party ranged themselves around the candidate.There were between three and four hundred people in the hall, every one of whom waa assumed by the speakers to be a friend.It was noticeable, though, that the applause and cheering came from the platform mainly.The applauding portion of the crowd was much the smaller one.Mr.McDonnell took the adage, \u2018\u201cShow me a man\u2019s [riends and I will tell you what he is,\u201d as a text for the first part of his speech.He showed his political friends to the meeting as a guarantee of his own Conservative principles.He had served a time of probation, for since he was 21 he had taken an interest in the affairs of the Irish people in that ward, political, social, and otherwise.All he did was with the hope that the Irish people should not stand aloof, but should take their piace and be a force and power in the Canadian confederation.For some small reasons he had to come before the electors ag an Independent Conservative, but, ha added, I see Xie silver lining to the cloud.I have been perusing the financial working of the province under the presont Administration and can see the sunshine breaking in, leading ine to believe that in the not far aistance an equilibrium will set in between revenue and expenditure, the last of the dark cloud over the province will have passed away, and a wave of prosperity will flow over it again.\u201d Mr.Hackeil said he was anxious to meet the people of Montreal and discuss the questions of the day with them.\"lis he did by eulogizing the late member, Mr.MeDonneil, and Mr.Curran, whom he considered the foremost Irisnman in the land.A tirade against the late Administration followed, embellished with statistics, more or less one-sided.'L'he taxes of 1892 he excused on the ground of necessity, and part of these he said were about to be taken off.\u201cIn 1892, when Mr.Hall put the tax into operation, he promised that so soon as it was possible it would be a source of piea- sure and pride to us to have them taken off.That promise has been repeated in each budget speech since, and last December Premier Taillon promised to take off the commercial tax in the city of Montreal this year.It 18 with pleasure, Mr.Chairman, that I announce tonight that this tax will be taken off by the first act of the next session.As the youngest member of the Cabinet I did not want to make this statement on my own authority, so I got this telegram from Mr.Laillon : \u2018 \u2018Please declare tax on certain persons and all licenses for certain manufacturers will be repealed next session.\u201cLL.O.TAILLON.' \u201cThis is not being done because there is an election in Montreal to-day, but because Mr.Hall pro:nised it.The succes- slon tax has been reduced one-third, and this year will be reduced further ér abolished altogether.\u201d As to loans Mr.Hackett declared that the Government had not made one new loan.All they did was to pay the debts of another administration, and they had done their best.The day for railway subsidies had passed, and this would mean another saving.Then came the of- ficlal endorsement.\u201cIt has been asked,\u201d said Mr.Hackett, if the Government of Quebec intends to support the candidature of Mr.McDonnell.It most certainly does.Mr.McDonnell {s known to the citizens of Montreal, and his honesty and probity need no eulogy from me.Honest men are what we want at Quebec, men who will criticise our acts if they are not to their liking.We want men down there who will be thoroughly independent.We want re2n who will not bow and cringe at the wish of the partyt whips.For this reason the Government gives its entire and cordial support to the candidate selected by the people of St.Ann's Ward.\u201d Mr.Paquette spoke in French, caused an exodus from the hall.Solicitor-General Curran was the last speaker, and steered clear of provincial politics.He contented himself, for the most part, with the softer amenities of political llfe.The meeting concluded with the regulation cheers.GREAT WRONG DONE.and Lt.-Col, Chaplean on the Manitoba School Question, Winnipeg, Sept., 27.\u2014Lieut.-Governor Chapleau, of Quebec, visited the French settlement of St.Jean to-day.In a speech in reply to the address of welcome Governor Chapleau said referring tothe school question: \u2018\u2019 As a British subject, and as a looker-on at the events of the day, I would say that the unmistakeable voice of the great mass of people of Canada, both Protestants and Catholics and of every natfonality proclaimed the fact that a great wrong had been perpetrated, and that while differences might arise as to the settlement of the minor points in the remedy to be provided, yet the mass concurred in this, that the wrong had to be righted.\u201d The Governor and his party leave for Quebec Saturday afternoon.DEFAULTER ARRESTED.W.B.Palmer Was Making for the Border on & Bieycle.Hamilton, Sept.27.\u2014W.B.Palmer, the defaulting teller in the Bank of Commerce, who disappeared on Wednesday afternoon was arrested to-day by Detective Reid near the viilage of Jordan, between Hamilton and St.Catharines.Palmer had left the city by the H, G.and B.electric road, going to Grimsby, where he stayed until to-day, when he started to make his way to the border on his wheel.The local detective got a clue ag to his mode of leaving the city and followed it up successfully.The amount of Palmer's shortage is not yet known.He was very haggard ani carc- worn when arrested, and was apparently much worried about his affairs, RUMORED CHANGES IN THE HIGH OFFICIAL POSITIONS OF THE GRAND TRUNK RAILs WAY.REPETION OF THE REPORT OF MR.SEARGEANT\u2019S RESIGNATION, General Superintendent Stephenson's Name Mentioned in Connection Withthe General Managers ship\u2014-Other Rumored Changes.London, Ont.Sept.27.\u2014Railway cire cles in this cily were considerably agitated to-day over rumored changes in the high otiicial positions onthe Grand Trunk, It has been known for some time that Generel Méneger Seargeant iad determined to resign bélore the end of this year, and on tne return of President Sir Rivers-Wilson and party to Montreal Mr.Seargeant handed in his resignation.: A Chicago despatch to-day says that the general managership was offered to Mr.5.R.Callaway, who tor many years was private secretary .to the old Great Western manager, and is now general manager of the Nickel Plate lines, but he declined.: It is now stated that General Superintendent Stephenson will be offered Mr.Seargeant\u2019s position, and Assistant Manager Wainwright will be continued in his present position.Assistant Superintendent Tiffin, of this city, has been named for the general superintendency, 50 the rumor goes, and Mr.Samuél Barker, formerly a resident of this city, and a member of the old law firm of Becher, Barker & Street, wlll succeed to Solicitor Bell's position, the latter official being retired after a long and successful term.Who Mr.Tiffin\u2019s successor in the assistant superintendency here will be is not known, but many belleve that Mr.David Morice, of Toronto, who was formerly assistant &uperintendent here, wlll be again given the position.! It is also stated that Mechanical Superintendent Herbert Wallis, of Montreal, will be promoted, and will succeed Mr.Joseph Hobson, of Hamilton.None of the head officials here were in a position to deny or confirm these rumors, but among the general employes they gained considerable credence.Mr.Tiffin has bern in Montreal for several days, and is not expected home till next week.DR.WILLIAMSON DEAD.IIc Was a Brothersin-Law of Sir John A.Macdonald.Kingston, Ont., Sept.27.\u2014Last rights Rev.Ur.idiamsovn, professor of Astronomy in Queen's University, died after a brief illness, wiged 81 years.The funeral of Prof.Wililamson will take place on Tuesaay next at 8 p.m.The Senate of Queens is making the arrangements.Prof.James William=on, L L.D., had been identitied wilh queen's University since iis second session, having come to Canada in 1843.For more than hal: a century he had been one of the mainstays of the college.His strong personality, his highly cuitured mind, and his long expzricnce gave much weight to his counsels, go that his iniluence was long paramount in the afrairs of the university.Mathematics and physics were the subjects which he was nominally given to teach; but besides these two important branches he at different times lectured on philosophy, on chemistry, and naturai history, wnile he was a highly accomplished classical scholar, and could at any time have taken hold of the Latin and Greek classes, if an cxigency demanded it.He was an honor man of Edinburgh University, graduating at an era in ln history of his Alma Mater of peculiar splendor, and it was his ambition to transplant as much as possible of the spirit and educational methods of that great institution to the - Canadian college in which his life work was to be performed.At one time he was offered a position in Toronto University, which he decilned, however, resolved to give his whole energy and attainments to the fuller development of the university with whose tirst endeavors his youth was identified And it was his joy to see & college with only two professors and a principal, and a mere handful of raw lads as pupils, grow inte the large and well-equipped Queen's University of to-day, with iis hundreds of students in training.He was the link connecting the several periods of the college's history, and the bond uniting successive generations of students to the university.He was always the students\u2019 friend, though execting enough in the work he required of them; and so his appearance on the platform of successive convocations, especially since he became advanced in years, was always the signal of uproarious applause from the boys in the gallery.He remainsd fn harness to the last.Although suffering at the time, he insisted upon discharging the function which he loved, of presenting to the chancellor tor laureation the graduates at the end of last session, leaving his bed for the purpose, and returning to it as soon as the function was over.Dr.Willlamson's power of concentration was remarkable; and so absorbed did he come in the subject engeging his attention that he pvas oblivious to everything else, and many are the curious anecdotes related of his absence of mind.Indeed, his last illness was traceable to a fit of abstraction, he having remained in the observatory for several hours at night pursuing his favorite study, until he was thoroughly chilled.Dr.Williamson has left one son by his first wife, an Edinburgh lady.His second wife was a sister of the late Sir John A.Macdonald.In the life of the latter by Mr.Pope there aré plavtul allusions to Dr.\u201cWilliamson, between whom and his distinguished brother-In- law a warm attachment grew up; and now his ashes, are to be laid beside those of the friend whom he so devoutly loved and by wham he was so heartily loved in return.The Late Mr.Shepherd.The Council of the municipality of Como at a recent meeting moved the following resolution of sympathy on the death of the late Mr.R.W.Shepherd: \u201cThat this Council desires to express deep sorrow and regret at the loss we have sustained in our midst by the death of Mr.R.W.Shepherd, sr., who was ever ready by his counsel and advice to aid and assist us in all our enterprises.We sincerely feel and know that his death will be greatly felt in this municipality, and his kindly presence greatly missed, and we hereby send our heartfelt regrets and condolence to Mrs.R.W.Shepherd and famiiy in token of our esteem and respect for one who did so much for this community.and one whose place cannot be filled.\u201d DEFENCE IS WERK.UNSATISFACTORY EVIDENCE ON BEHALF OF THEODORE DURANT.EXTRAVAGANT ASSERTIONS OF MIS ATTORNEYS NOT BORNE OUT.The Present Situation of the ~ Case Causes uo Change in the Bearing of the Prisoner.San Francisco, Cal, Sept.27.\u2014I£ Theodore Durant has anytlung tangible upon which to base his uenlai of ine charge that he murdered Biancne Lamont and Minnie Williams lus attorneys have tailed to give satisiactory evidence of the fact up to the present time, in the qpin- ion of those wno have watched the case closely.After two days devoted to the testimony of the deience the trial was adjourned at noon to-day until next Tuesday.In the meantime, however, the derence have disclosed enough to satlsty the prosecution that Durant\u2019s attorneys are groping in the dark in the hope that something may acvelop within tne next f£ew days.; The weakness of the defence is made more apparent at this time on account of the extravagant assertions that Durant\u2019s attorneys nave made since the trial pe- gan.When the prosecution was engaged in putting its case, and the situation looked darkest for Durant, Attorney Du- prey was accustomed to snap his fingers and remark that he had no £ears for the future of his client.\u201cWe shall clear him in three minutes,\u201d said Duprey, \u201cand the public will be at & Joss to understand how Durant's name was ever connected with the case.\u201d The same line of extravagant claims was continued when Attorney Duprey made his opening speech for the defence.\u201cNot onty will the prisoner tell with his own lips the simple story of his life on tho day that Blanche Lamont was murdered,\u201d continued Duprey, * but Dr.Cheney will tell you that Durant was at Cooper Medical Coliege at the very hour when the murder of Blanche Lamont is said to have taken place.Besides that we will prove to you that Durant never tried to pawn Miss Lamont\u2019s ring at Op- penheim's store.On the contrary, we will bring forward the young man who did try to pawn a ring at Uppenheim\u2019s similar to the one worn by Miss Lamont.\u201d In view of these startling statements it was at first beleieved that the defence might have a strong case held in reserve which would put to a severe test the cage ot th2 prosecution.Dr.Cheney, who was expected to tell so much for the defence, was as strong a witness for the prosecution as has taken the stand during the trial.Instead of ul tilling Duprey\u2019s statement, and swearing that Durant attended a lecture at Cooper Medical College the day he said he had no recoilection of secing the young medical student there.The denial dumfounded the defence.To-day, instead of placing witnesses 'n the stand to testify tc some material facts in connection with Durant's alibi, two gasfitiers were calied to testify with regard to the sunburners in the gallery of Emanuel Church.For two hours Lhe crowd was bored and the jury made tired bya long series of questions and answers relative to the minutest part of the construction of & sunburner.Not once during the entire session was thè name of Blanche Lamont mentioned, nor was anything sald to indicate tha tit was not a suit to collect a plumber\u2019s biil instead of a murder trigl that was before the court.The evident purpose of the examination, however, was to show that the repairing of sunhburners would necessarily result in the escape of a great deal of gas.This testimony will be used= to substantiate Durant\u2019's statement that he was suilering from partial aspayxia- tion when he came down from the church belfry, trembling and flushed, and met Organist King in the auditorium.A significant feature of the testimony of the two gasfitters was the fact that each testified that he made an examination of the sunburners in Emanuel Church on September 21.The prosecution interprets this to mean the defence had nothing upon which to base a case until the case of the people was nearly completed.Only when confronted by the aciual necessity of opening Its case, it is believed that the defence made an attempt to secure witnesses to testify with regard to the sunburners.The present standing of his case, however, produced no change in the demeanor of Durant.Day after day he sits in the court room beside his father and mother and listens to the evidence against him without a sign of emotion.This stoiciem on the part of the prisoner is only surpassed by that of his mother.Mrs.Durant seems to have no conception of the gravity of her son\u2019s situation.Attired in waving plumes and a tailor- made gown, such as a lady might wear a a matinee, she laughs and chats with her friends while the evidence that the prosecution believes will hang her son is being put against him.To frequenters of the court room, Mrs.Durant\u2019's conduct 1s almost as unfathomable as that of her son.Durant\u2019s father, however, looks careworn and gives evidence of the intense mental strain through which he must be passing.MONTREAL CENTRE.Dr.Guerin\u2019s Canvass Meeting With En conraging Results.Dr.Guerin's central committee rooms have been opened In Birks' old store, 235 St.James Street, and ward commit rooms in Griffintown, Point St.tee Charles, and Centre Ward.The various committees are all hard at work, and the prospects even thus early in the canvass indicate a victory for Dr, Guerin.The little muddle into which Premier Taillon brought his candidate over the business tax bills has disheartened the McDonnell party, and the exposure of the trick which was to be played on the electorates has roused even political opponents in favor of the honest candidate.Dr.Guerin's meetings will be In full swing next week.Another Aatarciic Expedition, London, Sept.27.\u2014The Times

at his house, 112 Brunswick Street.The examination showed that he came to his death entirely from asphyxiation from gas.There was no symptoms of poisoning, nor was there anything else of a suspicious nature to be found.Coroner Young has withdrawn the warrant for an inquest this evening, the case keing obviously one of suicide.MEETING OF THE CABINET.D.GIROUARD, QC, M.P., APPOINTED TO THE SUPREME

of Justice Fournier, retired.The appointment of Senators was taken up at to-day's meeting.It is stated on pretty good authority that Hon.Michael Adams is to get one of the ap pointments for New Brunswick.There are ten vacancies in all.Everyone who has any chance of getting a position is now looking for it from the Government, and In consequence there are a large number of politicians and party heelers chasing the members of the Cabinet to-night and advocating their claims for preferment.Dr.Lachapelle, M.P.; Mr.Frechette, M.P.; Mr.Adams and Mr.Leblanc, Speaker où the Quebec Legislature, were among those who were in the city to-day.Tney arrived from Coi- lingwood with Mr.Ouimet.IL is also reported to-night that Mr.Beaudin is to get the appointment of the vacancy on tne Superior Court bench in Montreal.At to-day\u2019s session of the Stationary Engineers, the last day of the sixth annual convention, a good deal of business was run through.After receiving rou- Line reports, a discussion came on anent a motion to procure working models of such machinery and apparatus as the members were in the habit of using.Many of the members thought that manufacturers in the Dominion would only be too willing to furnish models, in view of the benclits to be derived from the advertising they would thus receive.A motion that the executive take steps to procure such models, the understanding being that all local branches might have the use of these, was carried.vi rrof.Henry Montgomery, of Trinity University, Toronto, and his son, are in the city.Their frip is for the purpose of collecting spe .mens of minerals in this district for the uze of the class in the university.Prof.Montgomery has been for several weeks searching in the mining quarters of East Templeton and up the Gatineau, and has succeeded in obtaining several large cases of minerals.He stated that there is no section in Canada so rich in so many different ores as the Gatineau district.The Riessler

details.\u2019 AMUSEMENTS.The spacious stage of Sohmer Park has often been turned into a lecture platform before and large crowds have been in attendance, but it i doubtful if there has ever been such a large audience there as will be on Monday evening next, when Dr.Thomas O'Sullivan of Limerick, Ireland, one of Ireland's most gifted orators, will deliver a lecture on the Irish question of

place nightly in a theatre.To the manager, reposing in his dressing room between the acts, enters a gentleman of engaging manners in evening dress, who pres sents him with a little slip of paper.This slip of paper the manager sometimes glances at with a complacent smile, and puts, significantly, into his waistcoat pocket; sometimes he rends it in frag ments and casts it to earth, cursimg his night as Job his day.That little docut ment is a note of the box office receipts for the evening, the financial pulse of the theatre.Now with a play by a brand mew man, unless it chanced to catch on from thd very first, there would probably be the most feverishly fluctuating and perplesing varieties in that puise; little runs up of a few nights, and little runs down again: So that the manager might well be in donhtfnl dilemma.If he takes the play off, he loses all the money he has spent woon it: if he keeps it om, it may work up into a success\u2014it may, also, lose more money for him, when he has already lost too much.\u2014Nineteenth' Century.Father Point Signal Station, Que., Sept.27,\u2014SS.Austrian, Allan Line, from London, passed inward 1.18 p.m, PRICE ONE CENT.A Big Saving Can be

published next week, and will show liabill- ties of about $50,002,000, of which about $11,000,000 have been of manufacturing, and $17,600,000 of trading concerns.Wheat exports from both coasts of the United States and from Montreal, wheat flour as wheat, are the largest since last March, 38,161,000 bushels, against 2,- 588,000 bushels last week, 2,562,000 bushels in the week one year ago, and as compared with 3,189,000 bushels two years ago, and with 4,017,000 busjels three years ago.Bradstreet\u2019s says: In the Province of Quebec general trade shows improvement since August.Demand is active for sugar, teas and canned goods, and with settled weather it is believed orders for dry goods will be improved.At Toronto wholesale business is comparatively quiet, but prospects are for an active business.Advices from St.John, N.B., are that wholesale trade is quite satisfactory, many customers from a distance being present.The Nova Scotia apple crop will not be as large as last year,

D.Brodeur, advocate, stated that he was the lawyer who - drew up the document, and remembers distinctly that the womran told him she was a spinster.When wit\u201d ness happened to be at the enquete re cently, he heard the woman declare that she had been married twice.not attempt to judge of the legal value of her evidence at the enquete.MORE MEDICAL EVIDENCE.Dr.Arthur Joyal, physician, Montreal; testified that he has been practising medicine for twelve years.During that timé he spent three years and six months in Europe.He has heard the evidence in thig case.When asked if it was possible assuming that the evidence brought out id true, for this woman to have died between twelve and one o\u201dtlock, he replied, that unless he were tol make a choice of the evidence of some individual witness, he could not answer the question.Crown Prosecutor Quinn objected to this answer, as it was not the witness's place to assume or judge of the evidence; that rested with the jury, Mr.Desmarais then changed the question, assuming that at three o\u2019clock the woman was dead, and at ten o'clock the body was rigid.Witness was asked what was his opinion regarding the hour of death.Dr.Joyal replied that he considered the death a recent one, adding that by recent \u201che meant any length of time, not less, however than two hours.Witness volunteered to read from an ane thor regarding the rigidity of bodies.Crown Prosecutor Quinn, however, ob- jectéd to this, claiming that a witness had right\u2019 to speak from his experience and scientific knowledge, but was not justified in reading or quoting extracts.Judge Wurtele, after hearing the argument, retired for a quarter of an hour, and on his return decided that the witness : was not justified in reading from an author.His evidence, the learned judge said, should be confined to his practical knowledge or experience, and not what he had learnt from books.The court rose at ome o\u2019clock.At the resumption of the case at 2.15 the evidence of Dr.Joyal was continued.It went to show that bleeding hastened the coldness of the body, and if the vertebrae of the neck is cut rigidity may be Instantaneous.Witness stated that if the rigidity of the body waa still increasing or becoming more pronounced at six o'clock he would place the hour of death at between twelve and one o'clock.The position of the body when found goes to prove that death was instantaneous, otherwise the weight of the limbs alone would make them fall flat, unless otherwise obstructed.Witness had requested Mr.Desmarais recently to allow him to visit the house in which the tragedy occurred.He had gone there accompanied by Mr.Desmar- ais, and during the course of his visit he opened the blinds in the room wherd the woman was murdered.On the frame of the shutter he noticed a spot which he took to be blood.Later on the same day witness examined the spot by means of a microscope and was convinced that it was a spot of blood.In the after noon when he returned he noticed some cloth threads on that portion of the shutter where the blood mark was.The shutter was produced in court and it was clearly apparent that where the blood spot was the wood has been cut away.Jean Baptiste Adolphe Lamarche, phy- siclan, the next witness, said he has been a professor in Laval University fon the last twenty years.He has been professor in various branches of medicine.A supposed case was put before witness of a person dead under the same circumstances as Mrs.Demers, and he was asked to give his opinion re~ garding the time at which death occurred.The fact that a great flow of blood had taken place inclined him to believe that the time of death wag comparatively recent, and taking into consideration the fact that rigidity was incomplete witness believed that death might have occurred within three or four hours and perhaps less.Rigor mortis takes longer to set in when persons are in good health than when they are in poor health.'Witness maintained that in the report of the autopsy there was no amination of the spinal marrow would which might have been pierced, and which piercing would have caused death, and the fact that this had not been incorporated in the report of the doctors who performed the autopsy, must make him state that this very salient point was left out, and therefore according to his conscience he was obliged to state that the autopsy was not properly performed.Witness was asked by the judge what the effects of leaving out the examination of the spinal marrow would be.He replied that if the spinal mar- row.had been examined properly it would He would\u2019 have told what Instrument was the cause of death, which at present is an unknown factor.Death might have resulted from hemorrhage or nervousness.If the spinal marrow had been touched in any manner the result would have been immediate rigor mortis.With the conclusion of Dr.Lamarche'a evidence the court adjourned until ten o'clock this morning.THE GOOD WILL CLUB And \u201cHoliday Honse,\u201d Their Summer Home at Berthier, For three years past a good work has been carried on unostentatiously in this city by the Good Will Cirub, an association of ladies who founded the club for working girls.They have a cosily furnished house at.2078 St.Catherine street, With comrortable and homelike parlors, reading room and dormitories; Here working girls who have no friends in the city can find a home on almost nominal terms.Perhaps a more important work is that in connection with the summer home, as it is certainly a wider one.Hundreds of girls have been enabled to tind a needed rest there for a week or So, feeling perfectly independent in the knowledge that they are paying their own way.The summer quarters of the Good Will Club is known by the very appropriate name of \u2018Holiday House.\u201d It is situated in one of the loveliest spots in Berthier (en haut), in a charming situation, close to the water and near the boat landing and railway station.The rooms are large and airy, and furnished in keeping with the character of the place with a variety of couches and easy chairs, The object is to give a thorough change to girls who get no other rest during the year.The bill of fare is in charge of a first-class housekeeper, and is the ideal summer diet.A great deal of milk is considered essential, and lunches between meals or at bedtime are the order af the day.Two lady officers of the Good Will Club are in constant charge.They are the hostesses, meet the guests nt station or boat, take personal charge of their entertainment while they remain, chaperon all hay cart rides, picnics and boating parties, and nurse guests if they are ill.The pleasure all this is to the girls is not to be told in words.After fifty weeks of toil and worry in the workshop or store the stay there seems like living in another world.The cost of hoard at \u201cHoliday House\" does not, of course, begin to cover all the expenses.These are met by a very few ladies who started the scheme, and who have carried it on during the past three years.They recognize that the greatest need is not among those to whom charity can be offered.There are also hundreds of brave, self-reliant working girls, who toil early and late for wages that would barely suffice to keep some girls in shoes and gloves, with which they must keep themselves and help their small brothers and sisters tco.These are the girls whom it is hardest to help, and any more delicate or effective way of overcoming their sensitive feelings it would be hard to devise, Any person who donates $5 to the work has the privilege of sending an invitation for any young girl they choose for one week, free of railway fare and all expenses, or for two weeks without railway fare, That such a girl is not paying all her own way is known to none except the president of the club.She is simply a young guest of the ladies of \u201cHoliday House.\u201d There are many ways in which people interested can add to the value of the house.Housekeeprs might contribute blankets, comforters, house and table linen, and any.shawls or wraps they do not require would be very acceptable to the girls for their afternoon naps or cool evening dresses.Many of them do not realize until they get there that even when city thermometers are ranging hizh country evenings are decidedly cool.The expenses of \u201cHoliday House are necessarily considerable, and the officers of the club will be glad to hear from any who feel they would like to heln in the work next year.When so small a sum will give a girl the sorely needed rest which she cannot possibly obtain in any other way, it only needs to have the public made better acauaint- ed with the work of the Good Will Club to bring in both workers and the means to carry on the work.EE.A Glimpse into the Orient.In passing along St.James Street, opposite Victoria Square, the writer has noticed that the stone steps which lead into the Aibert Buliding have been covered with an elegant Persian rug.Impelled by a uesire to see Lhe reason for this peculiar decoration of a staid old business block, he entered the building.\u2018He was well repaid for his trouble, &s will any of our readers be.1t proves to be the display made by Mr.Hicks of his recent consignment of Turkish and Per- sfan rugs and tapestry, together with other art productions of the Orient.A magnificent Indian rug is there, of a deep-red color and of the finest texture, the duplicate of which is now in ros- session of the Prince of \u2018Wales.Another even more beautiful and yet more marvelous, in point of workmanship, is one made entirely of silk, made, of course, by hand, with over six hundred stitches to the inch\u2014a work perhaps of years.\u2018We find numerous saddle bags, faced with camel's skin, which show just enough evidences of wear to lend them a romantic interest.The pockets on either side are woven in elaborate figures.These saddle bags are held sacred by the Turks, as they have been used in their holy pilgrimages to Mecca.Again, we are attracted by the long strips of camel's hair weave, once used in the halls of palaces and mosques.They are secured by the soldiers as plunder, while they are engaged in quelling some riot or civil war, and, passing through many hands, are brought here to adorn the stairs of our own homes as no domestic carpet can do.The antique Persian rugs show the most marvelous skill, beautifully colored in rich reds and blues.Every thread, all wool and colored with pute vegetable dyes.Some are shown which have been used for more than half a century.They may show some wear on the surface, but the backs of the rugs lose none of their color or the clearness of their patterns.We can see here the Royal India carpet, seldom seen outside of India.It has a soft, ylelding surface like down, while on the reverse side we see the clear-cut figures that show perfect workmanship.fn the Persian rugs the colors are bright and varied, while the dark luxuriance of the east predominates in the Indian weaves.Mounting the stalrs and forcing our way through portieres, figured with the weird patterns of nation embroidery, we find ourselves, it seems, in the very court of eastern royalty.Here are shown most of the large rugs, many of them used for years with no loss in their color or figure.It 1s difficult for one not an expert in the matter to give you the Turkish names of these rugs and carpets and to speak familiarily of the djidjirn portieres and the Dagasthan or Kiz-Kilim Rugs.But what everyone can appreciate is the extreme beauty in color and pattern of these art treasures.The sheen and lustre on some of the rugs seem almost able to reflect one\u2019s face, as they do reflect their own delicate shadings.Civilization has done little for us in this matter.Even the modern \u2018work of the Turks and Persians cannot equal these relics of native skill, while among our domestic manufactures we find no comparison at all.\u2018The history of many of these rugs is lost, but we know them to be the best products of native ingenuity, and our own judgment stamps them as elegant.\u2018The entire display will be sold at auction by Mr.Hicks on October 1 and @, at 288 St.James Street.We Can\u2019t Afford ¢ ¢ To give you poor goods for big money, you can\u2019t.afford to buy ; that way.We sell

opening of the hall in the Masonic Temple, which is to be known as the Temple Music Hall, took place Thursday, night, and was most successful.The management dic wisely when they engaged Mrs.Morcedes Leigh and Letitia Guy Crowl to inaugurate the hall with their dramatic and musical entertainment, which was a delightful one.The pretty little hall was well filled by an appreciative audience.The affair was \u2018under the auspices of the Masonic fraternity, and the pa- tronnesscs for the occasion were : Lady Casault, Mrs.Andrew Allan, Mrs.Geo.A.Drumimond, Mrs.Hugh Graham, Mrs.Hector Mackenzie, Mrs.Donald Macmaster, Mrs.F.Masscy, Mrs.Pangman, Mrs.Robert Reid, Mrs.Wartele, Mrs.Wheeler.The programme was without a tedious number, and all the prejudices renowned in proverbs against a whistling woman were disarmed by Miss Letitia Guy Crowl.Select solos from Orditi Meyerbeer, Thomas and Herz charmed the audience by the skill, judgment and expression shown in their rendition.Mrs.Leigh was most cn- tertaining in her clever character impersonations, her mimetic powets being something wonderful.As a reader she proved herself no mean elocutionist.Miss Sophia Meyers alternated the two special artistes with pleasing piano solos.The hall was créwded at the second performance last evening.In an altercation over a game of cards, was shot and killed by Willie Archer, an Indian.Archer was arrested.At the inquest a verdict of wilful murder was returned, after which a number of citizens took Archer from the officers and killed him.He was found with six bullet holes

B.C.MINES.During the past weck two good and reliable mining men, who were not stock-hold- ers, stated, after a visit and inspection of the Cariboo mine at Quesnelle forks, that the showing was remarkable, and that the fall clean-up will, astonish even the enthus- fasts about \u2018the hydraulic mines of the Cariboo Region.\u2014Victorta Times.Rossland, B.C., Sept.14.\u2014~There is no slacking off in the work on the mines.The present pay roll ig estimated at $30,000 a month, but commencing November 1st it is expected to increase to $75,000.This estimate is conservative and is based on the proportion of 123 men to the War Eagle, 100 to the Le Roi, 25 to the Josie, Crown Roint, Iron Horse, Nickle Plate, Center| Star, Columbia and Kvoteray, and from 10 to 8 men on the other claims that will be worked through the winter.It is possible that the Cliff claim will be worked this winter.TP so 20 men will be employed on it.This property has a vun- nel in $30 ore and is fast developing into one Of \u2018the best mines in \u2018the district.It has ore of the largest ore bodies in the camp.John S.Cook and S.M.Wharton are the owners.They recently refused $155,000 for the property.Mr.Cook owns one-third of the town of Rossland ard is the principal owner of the St.Elmo Con- sclidated, Coxey and other properties.A recent test of a sample from the Cliff showed $31.25 in gold and copper.H.L.Rogers, of Spokane, manager of the High Oro Gold Mining Co., is in the camp.He is having winter quarters built for his men and will operate the High Ore mine all winter.This property adjoins the Jumbo, owned in Spokane, which has developed \u2018from \u2018a prospect to a rich mine.It is undersbood a 50-foot shaft is to be sunk on the Ivanhoe.This property has an enormous ledge of pyritic iron and quartz, and old miners predict that depth will make a valuable mine.Threz expensive plants have been ordered and are now coming forward from the east.The first to arrive will be a large air compressor, boilers and engine for the War Eagle mine.The Center Star and R.E! Lee have ordered similar plants, which\u2019 are expected to arrive within the next days: 1 am credibly informed that the Cana- dfan Pacific has laid out a town site at the mouth of Murphy creck.Work on the cross sectioning of the road to Trail iw being rushed.The railrcad station at the mouth of the creck will he about 500 feet above the river.From that point there will be a rise of 2,200 to Rossland, or a three per cent.grade.Work on the smelter at Trail is to go ahead at once.Three Wondred men will be employed on the smelter and at cutting wood.~Vanconver World.A Newfoundlandsr on Island Affairs A gentleman from Newfoundland, who was at the Winlsor yesterday, talked to a Herald reporter on the prospects of the country.Regarding the smuggling opera tions, of which so much has been heard lately, he said: \u201cThe smuggling is done in a very ingenious manner down there.My father was a Custom House officer, but when 1 was a young man I used to assist pretty frequently in smuggling operations.I was one of some six or eight who knew all the | secrets which have lately come to light.1 at cne time offered the Attorney-General of Newfoundland to give him, for $2,000, some important information regarding smuzglinz which was going on, and he answered me, \u2018we unierstand our business.J determined to let the secret die with me: The county would benefit greatly by annexation to Canada.It only wants to The purse contained railway tickets, ten | Lead Packets Only.rd TEA Once that Did not Become Its Friend and Ally.Black or Mixed.Wholesale Agency, 318 St.Paul.By All Grocers.Tel, 723.mired it.TIVVVV VIMY THE TEMPLE BUILDING.00 OVD You know what itis.You know where it is.You have seen it and ad- © Magnificent piece of St.James St.property.building of the Company.PRICE\u2014We have been have made the easy to buy it.335394995999 VS VO SITE\u2014The finest in the city.Adjoining property sold at highest rate of any in city.EXTERICR\u2014Brown stone front.One of the handsomest modern buildings on St.James Street.Proper hands can bring this building up to the top notch of value.A small outlay in interior improvement will make it the best revenue producing property on the Street.For full particulars and estimates call on J.CRADOCK SIMPSON & CO., 181 St.James Street.Adjoining new Canada Life Assurance Well built.authorized to sell it.We price so that it will be @ : ° 2 0 ê ?: 0 0 o @ Shoes of Comfort.have corns.of one perfect pair of shoes.others after it.from imported calfskin.shapes, many widths, all sizes.Price Stamped on Sole.ments of Europe.a.m,, and Wednesdays from 12 noon till 5 p.m, COSTUMES Silk is soft, yet a band of it could strangle you.Good caliskin's soft, too, jet nine men outof ten Corns are but stranglod feet.Leather shoes can be made to fit like silken gloves, if your shoemaker knows how.makers of ihe Slater Shoe put thousands of dollars and ten years of thought into the makin Now they model all Made with the Goodyear Welt, Black or Tan.six 83.00, 84.00.853.00 ner pair.A full line of these popular Shoes, in Black and Tan.ast M $ Slater Bros., 249 St.James St.À ;

chestnut, $8.40; egg, $3.15; broken, $3; f.0.b., net.\u2018The gross price is 15 cents in addition.This is an advance by some of the companies of 40 cents and by others of 25 cents over their previous highest figures.It is understood that Lackawanna will ask higher prices than those stated.ji NEW YORK STOCKS.TICKER GOSSIP FROM R., MEREDITH, The fact that out of £60,000 shares dealt in, yesterday's transactions in 180,000 shares were contributed by six stocks ls plain evidence that small cliques of operators influenced the operators of yesterday.The fact that the governing committee of the Stock Exchange had declined by an almost unanimous vote to refuse the demand for frequent financial statements from the American Sugar Refining Co.was a plain notice that the foolish theory of some recent attacks on the stocks was ill founded, and that Sugar would continue to be an attractive property for operators who are willing to risk much in the hobe of gaining much if their speculative gucsses are right.Speculation in the industrial stocks is still largely absorbed by Whiskey, This stock is still subject to the manipulation which usually attends negotiations for settlement of controversies in any trade.THE LONDON SITUATION.New York, Sept.21.\u2014The Evening Post's special London cablegram says: The conclusion of the Stock Exchange settlement to-day caused a good demand for money, owing to the heavy settlement in mines.The markets were good, especially mines and Americans.In the latter there is a large Investment business here.Reading fives are in favor on re-organization rumors.Prices close at near the best.The general outlook for speculation is still good, though the mines is certainly, too wild, and suggests trouble, though probably not at present.THE DAY IN WALL STREET.New York, Sept.27.\u2014 The Evening Post's financial article says: Reading securities led the market to-day.London began the buying, partly on arbitrage account, for the early foreign price was well above the New York level.These foreign purchases were followed by rather heavy local buying of both shares and bonds, the movement being entirely based on the belief that the reorganization plan will bo issued in Philadelphia to-nignt.Few details were even rumored, and, of cours, under the circumstances, nobody troubled himself to argue whether stocks and bonds ought to be alike favorably affected.However, last month's experience on the | issue of the Erie plan, and the recent advances in the price of coal, combined to help the market for Reading\u2019s own securi- .ties.A further advance in anthracite was, in fact, to-day under consideration.That it was high time for such trade readjustment current railway statements : show.Advance in prices, with the pur-\u2019 pose of adding largely to trade profits already in existence, would meet honest opposition in many conservative quarters.But the Reading Coal Company's \u2019 August statement, published to-day, i shows an\u2019 actual loss on mining oper- | ations of $191,872.In the nine months | of the fiscal year th loss was $487,769, against a profit of $244,953, even in the hard times of 1893.This reckoning, let it be observed, makes no account of payment on the debt.Including that, the nine months\u2019 deficit is nearly $1,400,009.\u2014\u2014 MONTREAL OCR EXCHANGE.The closing prices on tne local stock exchange to-day were reported as follows by Mr.John Low, stock broker, Stock Exchange Buildinz: Sept.27iSept.26 + DESCRIPTION, >|» u FREER Canadian Pacific Rail way.61 603 60, 59% Do o Land Bondsi.lt07 |.\u2018167 D.5.8.A.\u20262ucocosossasoccum | 7} 78] 7H G D.8.8, A, pfd.15 14 16 | 13 Grand Trunk lst pref.coded, Do do 2ud do.veo |a dl *Commercial Cable Co., .163311628(1623 162} Montreal Telegraph Co .(167 |1653,166 165% Rich and Ont, Nav, Co.[103 9831103 | 98 Montreal Street Itailway.208 208 Montreal Street Ry., new 112074 207 Montrea;

11,160,802 bush.in 1892-3, and only 5,024,266 bush.in 1891-2.\u2014Wall St.Journal.Prime writes: \u201cThe Eastern Iowa corn is out of the way of the frost.It will make a good crop, but no bumper crop, as it has matured so fast on account of the exiremely dry weather that a great deal of the grain will be loose on the cob.Very little old corn left, and do not look for a free movement of new.Very little plowing done, ground very dry.\u201cSouthern Nebraska corn has finished ripening.Throughout Southeastern Nebraska it will generally be used at home.Feeders In neighboring localities have been offered corn by dealers within the past 10 days for 22 cents.If it can be furnished for 22 cents here it is evident that farmers in those sections where a good crop was grown are going to get a small price for it.\u201d A Liverpool report says: Receipts during the past three days were: Wheat, 18:,000 centals, including 32,009 American;

+ ving, as Ichatted with him on Saturday night.\u201cYes, my friend, a week of thorough enjoyment which I skall not soon forget.Tell Montreal that I shall come back some day.\u201d He closed the first week of the 1895-96 season here on Saturday night with the first production in America Of Dr.Coman Doyle's \u201cA Story of Waterloo.\u201d The Academy was crowded and the greatest entitustasm prevailed.It was used as a curtain raiser, and was followed by \u201cThe Bells.\u201d The story of Waterloo Has been told many times, birt never as penned by Doyle ard pictured by Irving.It only takes thir- ty-five minutes to tefl it and to work into it some of the prettiest detail that the stage has known.This particalar story of Waterloo is that a soidier was on his way to the battle with powder, which was badly nceded.The route was blocked by a wood on fire when Brewster, then a corporal in the Royal Scots, or Third guards, successfully passes through the fire, landing the powder at ity destination, Brewster is now eighty-six years old and still delights to tell thd story of Waterloo.* \u2018The regiment is proud of you, says the Diok.\u201cAnd I\u2019m proud of the regiment,\u2019 says I.\u2018And a damned good answer, too,\u2019 says the Dook.\u201d This little speech Corporal Gregory Brewster persists in still retailing at every convenient chance, and it was received with greater cheers the more the old veteran spoke it.Irving's presentation of the part is a character study that even excels anything be is now appearing in.When the Colonel calls upon Brewster end suddenly says, \u201cyou are Corporal Brewster.\u201d Yes, sir,\u201d and \u201cI am Colonel,\u201d the aged veteran sprang to his feet in an effort to salute the officer, only to fall back exhausted.The scene brouzht tears to the entire au- dicnce and for some moments the tumultuous applause stopped the play.Then Brewster retold his story as he grew fainter and fainter, and as he sank to sleep rhurmared, \u2018I have one favor to ask; give mo a flag and a firing party.\u201d Shortly afterward little Nora and Sergeant McDonald are chatting, when the old veteran springs to his feet, and, still asleep, once more goes through the fearful powder story.- Death comes, and, as ever, Irving\u2019s passing scene is grand in its painfulness.\u201cWhat do yoû think?\u201d asks Nora, and the sorgeant repiies, \u201cI think the Third Guards have their full muster now.\u201d It was touch:nx in the extreme.Applause broke from the audience only after it was realized that the scene was but of the mimic stage.There was no chance for criticism.Every de\u2019ail was carefully attended to, and Miss Gibson and Mersrs.Mellish and Webster deserve a word of praise.Sir Henry made a pretty little speech, and at midnight the company left on a B,ecial train for Toronto.* 2 + John Hare has been strongly advised by many of his American friends to present while in America one or more of the series of Robertson's comedies, which made his management of the oM Court Theatre, London, so noteworthy an era.Sir Henry Irving and many others of Mr.Hare's English friends are also said to strongly res commend this course, so it is possible that we may have an opportunity of seeing Sam Gerridge and other Robertsonian characters depicted by the artist who first made them famous.So far it has only been definitely decided to inchide in the repertoire of the Garrick Theatre Company for America Mr.Coghlan\u2019s comedietta, \u201cA Quiet Rubber,\u201d Sydney Grundy\u2019s A Pair of Spectacles,\u201d and A.W.Pinero\u2019s The Notorious Mrs.Ebbsmith.\u201d .*#* 8% The Sporting Duchess has entered apon the second month Cf Pts run in New York.The thrilling features of the melodrama, notably the Derby race scene, are as exciting as ever.Miss Alice Kilby, of this city, is playing a ricr part in the piece.e = » \u201cAdmirer\u201d sends me the first act of a Brama he has written entitled: \u201cLost in Montreal\u201d and asks for an hondst opinion of its merits.There can be no doubt but that it is written in a style that not even the greatest dramatists of the day have failed to acquire.I give the closing scene In the act so that \u2018others than myself may enjoy it.Act 1.\u2014Scene 3.=~Same as First.~Darkness.{Enter John Melrose with candle).Lays candle down, looks

me.(Noise).Humph.(Frighteneä).Ha, ha; me afraid of such a slight noise as that.Ha, Ha, oh no, that not my nature: (Frightened) (drinks).AW, now I feel better.(Noisd) But lo, what nolse is that T hear

stealing the will that belongs to my dead brother\u2019s children.Ah, ha, no, no, here, here\u2014haunt me not.Here avenge your wrongs thus (unsteady walks to sideboard), Now, courage, ah here it is (Handling bottle) (looks at it) Poison, yes (fills up glass with wine), Now, spirit of my dead brother take averge on me thus, thou who haunts me In my sleep at night be ævenged on me now, for all my

voice approaches he throws down glass violently) and as E.M.(wife) enters he falls in her arms outstretched.(He calls) Repent, Yes repent.(Hand raised and wife holds him up) (tableaux) (curtain), Now, as to my opinion of this play, I can only say that \u201cadmirer\u201d may rest assured that he is a writer, such as Montreal has never known before.Alexander Satvini Several years ago was advised by Mr.Irving, who took a warm personal interest in his career, to attempt the role of Hamlet.Mr.Irving was of the opinion that the pragmatic English Hamlet was being overdone, and that the time was ripe for a Hamlet with color, emotion, fire, and, in short, some redeeming trait of romanticism.In April last Sal- vini played his Hamlet for the first time, and now we are promised thut soon Monta real is to see it.* Opera comique wil be given at the Acad demy of Music week after next, as it has seldom before been given in Montreal, That is rather a broad statement, but the \u2018fact the Abbey Schoeffel and Grau, the invinci- able trio of impressarios is responsible for it, makes it worthy of credence.Two operas will be incl'™ded in the short season of one week at the Academy, and both will enlist the full strength of the Lillian Russell Opera Company, which is, of course, headed by the poerless Lillian hero sei.Two carloads of Scenery and baggage are already at the Custom House for the production of \"The Tzigane,\u201d whic will be the first work presented, and two more carloads, representing the investiture of Offenbach\u2019s rare old gem, \u201cLa Perich- ole.\u201d will accompany the company from Washington.The Tzigane,\u201d in which Miss Russell will begin her engagement way written especially for her by Reginald De- Koven and Harry B.Smith.It had a wonderfully long run in New York, and has since received tie ungualified endorsement of Boston and Washington.The company in support of Miss Russell mumbers one hans dred people, and among them are a dozen of the cleverest singers and comedians on the light opera stage.The advance sale of seats and boxes for the Russell engages ment will begin next Thursday morning.* * The production of \u201cMy Wife\u2019s Friend\u201d at the Academy this week is worth more attention than the papers have given it.One cannot help but laugh and laugh heartily, at the play if it is carefully listened to and watched from beginning to end.I never had the pleasure of seeing W.C, Andrews before, and it was a pleasant surprise, indeed.He is of the same school as Drew, Hilliard and Goodwin, and if I mistake not will be heard from in somethinz far more pretentious than his present piece.His leading lady, too, is an actress of whom we have heard little, but who surelv must come to the front.She is so ahsolutely genuine in all she does.Even to the kiss which she gives her affihneed (Mr.Andrews)\u2014even that is genuine, So much so that I thoneht she was Mrs.Andrews, but I learn differently.But, seriously, she is clover, very, and thongh Mrs.Arminda Ponsby Luster is a pretiy part, it is searcely in keeping with the ycung lady\u2019s talents.« =».+: Sometimes a \u2018\u2019mommer\u201d\u2019 is a great comfort and help to a young lady striving for prima donna honors and\u2014someÿimes she isn\u2019t.There is a young lady at one of ths theatres who has\u2019a \u2018\u2018mommer\u201d who always travels with her, who thinks that the sun rises and sets over her head and who be- tieves that Melba and Calve aren\u2019 in the same class with her\u2014well, we'll call her Sallie because that isn't a bit like her name nor any other prima donna\u2019s.On Tuesttay evening Sallie smiled prettily as she tripped upon the stage, and in the lobby of the theatre ail evening there stood a tremendous basket of roses directed to her in a big, bold hand\u2014as big and as bold a hand as Jimmy White cculd muster.Just before the curtain fell on the last act the basket was carried around by two ushers into Sallie\u2019s dressing room, and there, after the last call ad been answered, the whole cast gathered around to admire it and wonder who sent it.Sallie's \u201c\u2018mommer™ looked ib over in evident astonishment.\u201cWell, well!\u201d she exclaimed, I never thought it would be that big\" e » »* The latest is that Squire B.Bancroft and Mrs.Squire B.Bancroft are contemplating a journey after American shekels.Squire B.and Mrs, Squire B.are well known and well liked on the London stage, and the recurrence of their names reminds me that Squire B.way very anxious a year æço to secure the English rights for Sar.dou\u2019s \u201cMme.Sans Gene,\u201d Sir Henry, he was plain Henry Irving then.got the piece, you know, and there is a little story about how he announced his purchase to

of the English rights, wos \u201chere: Bancroft had a stall, and Sir Henry had a box.After the first act Bancroft decided he'd take the piece\u2014he had heen rather afraid to come do a fril decision

Ty.* = + The London Times thus speaks of the first production in England of \u201cTrilby\": \u201cThe play is mainly in the form it has Had in New York, but Mr.Tree has introduced some alterations.In the second act he now gives an indication of what is to some by betraying symptoms of great ex- Haustion througir the transier of his powers to Trilby.He breaks into a passion of blasphemy, ot realizing suddenly that his kfe is being sapped he falls to his knees in fear, only to return, however, to his scofing when he thinks he is past {ho danger.À featare of the play is the delicate way in which it treats the lax morality of the students and the frailty of the heroine, the grosser side being almost eli- minted.The reception accorded to the piece on Saturday night was a verv flattering one, There was general disappointment at the lameness of the finale, but otherwise there was plenty of enthusiasm.A¢ represented by Miss Dorothy Baird, Trilby was a most charming young woman, whose attractions quite accounted for so many people losing their heads about her.Mr: Tree\u2019s Svengali was a sombre Lut most impressive person.Cruftiness was strongly marked, but the great feature of the character is the frerzy with which Svengali pursues his object of so hypnotizing Trilby that, although she is deaf to tone, she shall sing as woman never sang before, and so hring him wealth.At the close of the performance Mr.Tree thanked the audience for their reception of the piece, and intro®iced Mr.Potter, who, he said, had travelied 3,000 miles im order to be pre- LE People of Note\u2019 King Humbert of Italy is a vegetarian and seldom eats anything except bread, potatoes and fruit.\u201cCoriolanus,\u201d which Henry Irving will bring out this fall, was last produced in London in 1860 by Samuel Phelps.In the privacy of his study Emperor William smokes a big china-bowled pipe of the typical German kind.Lady Randolph Churchill is beguiling her widowhood Ly riding a bicycle at Aix-les Bains, with manifest improvement to her health, Sarah Bernhardt has presented her two pet gorillas to Jardin des Plantes of Paris.She is now anxlous to entrlie a seu-serpent for the season.Andrew Lang is writing a life ¢f John Gibson Locfrhart, the son-in-law and biographer of Sir Walter Scott and editor of the Quarterly Review.Only Mr.Sims Reeves\u2019s most intimate friends were aware of his marriare a fort night ago to Miss Maude Rene, onc of his pupils, who had already been heurd on the concert platform.A few months ago his first wife, well krown as Miss Emma Lue- comhe, died, it will be remembered, rather suddenly.The summer house of Prof.Bell, the telephone iiventor, is on an estate of 15,- 000 acres in Cape Breton, on the Bras d'Or.On one of the neighboring lakes the professor has a house-boat propelled by a steam launch, with a trap door cit in the floor of his dining-room; so that he can fish, if the fancy strikes him, while at the table.Ît is said that the newly-granted arms of Sir Henry Irving are now ready, but rumor has rot disclosed the motto.Who would like \u2018to çugzest one?The shield is sable, on which are four swans argent, in the centre is a wreath of laurels or, and a similar wreath surrounds the helmet.\u201d Mrs, Annie E.Barr has lived for so long in America that many persons have come to rocgard her as an American.She is \u2018a Nprth of England woman, and was married in Kendal Farish Church, Westmoreland.She spent many years in Scotland prior \u2018to leaving for America, and in her latest work, \u201c*Bernicta,\u201d Mrs.Barr gives evidence of this Tact by her acquaintance with Ja- cokite history and lore.M.Vallet, the rich Frenchman who has marie a hobby of climbing Mont Bianc, ard who has made the ascent twenty times, is a slight, little man, not at all a typical climber.In his knickerbocker suit he I0oked more like the conventional toar- ist ¢f the seaside than \u2018a mountaineer.M.Vailot now has a project for surveying the Mont Blanc range, and, with a civil engin- cer and nearly a \u2018dozen assistants, he recently passdd thremzh Chamcenix on his way to the mountain.Mme.Deschamps, oldest of the Paris market women, is dead at the age cf nine- ty-four.She supplied the Tuileries with vegetables in the days of Charles X.and Napoleon III, and she had the impression for years that the Emperor was in love with her.To Mme.Deschamps was attributed the invention of Julienne soup, or zt least of the practice of chipping the vegetables used in that soup.Though n famous character, she was buried without any funeral honors from her associates.It will be remembered that a short time 2go, whilst Lord Charles Beresford was being rowed across Chatham Dockyasd, the boat upset, the seaman who was rowing him being picked up in an exaausted state, Lo:d Charles swimming ashore.As a memento of the occasion, Lord Charles has presented his companion with a meer schaum pipe, the case of which carries al silver plate bearing an inscription recording \u201cour jolly ducking.\u201d A grim touch is added to the kindly gift by the fact that the bowl of the pipe is moulded in the shape of Death's head.It is sald that Lady Dudley is probably the only peeress of the reaim who has risen from the rank of a shop girl to her present social eminence.True, she bore prior to her marriage the name of Gurney, one of the most ancient in Norfolk.The young countess\u2019s father, however, met with business reverses, resigned his partnership in the Gurney Bank, and surrendered all his possessions for the benefit of his creditors.Mrs.Gurney opened a milliner's shop In London, but met with scant success, her two daughters, who acted sis assistants, ultimately becoming saleswomen in the shop of the modiste, Madame Elise.Mr.Balfour is goi to have a solid month at golf.The re he plays the more, he becomes fascinated with the game, and quite a considerable number of new Tory members, impressed by his example, are acting upon the notion that, in order to show proper \u201cform,\u201d it is necessary to supplement membership of the Carlton Club by becoming Initiated into the healthful mysteries of the golf links.There is no doubt that Mr.Balfour has done more than anybody else to make the game of golf fashionable and popular amongst politicians.Often when bored by the debates in the House he will talk quite eagerly with colleagues about his lavorite recreation.Among society women who cycle Lady Architald Campbell is one of the Ja:est to declare against the skirt.(Having tried (she writes to the World) the various skirt patents, all of them, as I think, absolutely, irrational in conception, and after having also tried the mysterious convertible blind or curtain arrangements in \u2018the way of skirts constructed so as to ; tuck up or let down, to show or conceal,jas \"occasion regaires, the harmless knickerbocker, 1 most cordially disapprove of all.I .ag-ee with accomplished cyclists of both ;sex:s who cultivate cycling as an art, that any skirt is out of the guestion which is not cut short enough to clear cranks and pedals when the cyclist is scated, and make dregs guards unnecessary.\u201d Kisg Khama is the most iuterest ng African, of the present century.His career bears an extraordinary parallelism with that of King David, and ne is the darling of the English missionary world.When 18 years or age he incurred the anger of his father, tne truculent Sekomo, because he would not take a second wife, and during the last 20 years, since his own accession to power, he has abdlished polygamy, witcheraït, and \u201csmelling out\u201d; has introduced English methods ot dress, trial by jury, religious toleration and education; set to his people an example of unobtrusive piety, and has done far more than the British Colonial Of- tice to keep the Hamburg fire-water out of the reach of his people.Like David, too, he has moved his court from the Hebron-like village of Shoshong to a new Jerusalem at Palapye.The late Mrs.Barrie has seldom stirred out of Kirriemuir, the Forfarshire town her son has made famous as Thrums, nor even to the last could she quite understand why people should come all the way from America to look at the house where James Matthew was born, especially as she had another son who was a school inspector.The old lady, from whom the novelist has inherited his intellectual force, was.a perfect specimen of the unsophisticated, outspoken, true- hearted Scotchwoman of the last generation, mot above bannocks and skimmed milk, but on a level with the greatc.t in nobility of thought and independence of character.A few weeks ago Mrs.Barrie, who had long been ailing, was so much better that her son and hls wife started away to Davos Platz to visit Dr.and Mrs.Conan Doyle.It will be a deep regret to Mr.Barrie, who has all the Scottish reverence for parents, that he was not with his mother when she died.vi! A paragraph has apprared in the Scottish papers stating that the Queen\u2019s good health is owing to her careful dieting, one of her practices being to take \u201ca small liquekr ' glass of very fina old whisky after botit luncheon and dinner.\u201d This is a pure in\u2019 vention, for the Qucen never drinks any sirits tpliluted.Hor Majesty occasionally takes a small glass of ue old whisky mixed with a tumbler of mineral water.People must have a queer idea about \u2018\u2019careful dieting\u201d who include raw spirits in the regimen.The Queen takes a light breaks fast, a hearty luncheon, a substantial tea, but, at a quarter to nine, when dinner is served, Hor ila'esty eats very sparingly, a d only of the lightest and most nutritious ford.About midway between breakfast acd luncheon, when the Queen is transacting Lusiness {(al\u2019 the heavy work of the day being over and done with at half-past onc), Her Majesty takes a refresher in the shape of cither a cup of beef tea as strong a= it can be made or an egg beaten with a little milk or sherry.\u2014Truth.SAVED MUCH SUFFERING.REV.FATHER BUTLER'S INTERESTING EXPERIENCE.Suffered From an Abscsss in the Side Which Dr.Williams Pink Pills Cursd After Other Medicines Failed\u2019 (Caledonia, N.S., Gold Hunter.) Faith leads many to believe, yet when one has experienced anything and has reason to rejoice, it is far stronger proot than faith withoeu reasonable procf.About four miles from Caledonia, along a pieas- ant roud, passing by wimerous farms, lives Rev.T.J.Butler, the parish priest of this district.Reports having come to the ears of our reporter about a wonderful care effected by Dr.Williams Pink Pills, he called on Mr.Butler to seek ivforma- tion on the subject.Mr.Butler spoke in very high terms of the Pink Pills, and said they had saved him \u2018untold suffering, and perhaps saved his life.The reverend gentleman felt a little hesitancy at giving a public testimonial at first, but after our reporter remarked that if one was really grateful for a remarkable cure he thought it was his duty to give it publicity for humanity's sake, he cheerfuily consent- cd.His story in his own words is as follows: =\"I was lad to take Pink Pilla throuzh reading the testimonials in the papers.I was troubled with an abscess in my side and had tried many different medicines without avail.I took medical advice on the subject, and was told I would have to undergo an operation to cure it which would cost me about $100.At fast I determined to try Pink Pills, but without a great feeling of faith of their curing me.One box helped me and I resolved to take a three months\u2019 ccarse, and give them a fair trial.I did so, and to-day I am completely cored of the abscess in my sidé through usinz Pink Pills, and I always recommend friends of mine to use Pink Pills for diseases of the blood.\u201d As Father Buta ler is weH known throughout this county.his statement is.a clincher to the many wonderful testimonials that have appeared in the Gold Hunter from time to time; On enquiring at the sbores of J.E.Cush- ing and N.F.Douglas, it was found that Pink Pills have a sale second to none.Mr.Cushing on being asked tf he knew of any cures effected by them, replied that he had heard a great many personally say Pink Pills had helped them wonderfuily, If given a fair and thorough trial Pink Pills are a cerlain cure for alt diseases of the blood and nerves, such as rheumatism, neuralgia, partial paralysis, locomotor ataxia, St.Vitus\u2019 dance, nervous headache, nervous prostration and the tired \u2018feeling therefrom, the after effects of la grippe, diseases depending on humors in the blood, such as scrofula, chronic ervsipelas, ete.Pink Pills give a healthy glow to pale and sallow complexions and are a specific for the troubles pectiffar to the \"female system, and in the case of men they effect a radical cure in all cases arising from mental worrv, overwork, or excesses of any nature.Sold bv all dealers or sent bv mail, postpaid, at 50 cents a hox or six boxes for $2.50, by

engineering profession loses one of its most able members.In the public mihd his name is chiefly associated with the hydraulic riveter which he invented, but among his brother ongineers he was well known to have done much other good work.The application ol\u2019 hydraulic pressure to the working of machine tools was, however, his \u2018great achievement.There is now hardly an important shipbuilding and engineering establishment throughout the worid that has not hydraulic riveters or flamging presses based on what ig known to engineers as the \u201cTweddell system.\u201d Bulgaria is\u2019 the school for rising diplomatists.Sir Nicholas Roderick ¢)Con- or, who succeeded Sir Frank Lascelles in Sotia, now succeeds him as Ambassador at St.Petersburg.The scion of an old Roscommon family, he began his diplomatic career in Berlin in 1866, and then served in Madrid, Washington, Brazii, Peking\u2014where he did good work as charge d'affaires\u2014again in Wash ington as Secretary of Legation, and from that was posted to the Bulgarian capital, in which it is enough to say he showed himself no unworthy heir to Sir PF.Lascelles\u2019 reputation.After five years theres he went back to Peking, this time as the head of the mission, and he has done well under the most difficult circumstances.Mr.Sam Woods, President of the Lancashire Miners\u2019 Federation, addressing a large meeting of miners at Pendlebury, near Manchester, said the Rosebery Conciliation Board agreement would end in July next, and tnere was every indication from the stecks on coalpit hills and the crowded condition of the mines with men, that another attack would then be made upon miners\u2019 wages.Private reductions were being sought all over Lancashire and the funds of the federation were being used to prevent inroads upon their organisation.While the membership in Yorkshire stood at 64,000 it was only 27,000 in Lancashire, though there were the same number of workers.The Lancashire (Federation had decided to place a scheme for its reconstruction on the same lines as Yorkshire before meetings of the men throughout the country, and if adopted, as he believed it \u201could be, he ventured to predict the membership would be increased to 40,000 \u2018by March.\u2018There were some signs of an improvement in trade, and he hoped at the end of the year they would be able to join the Scotch miners in asking for an advance.Lord Wodehouse, eldest son of the Barl of Kimoerley, who was fined £5 at the Petty Sessions held at Smallburgh, Norfolk, on July 80, for commitiing an assault at a meeting held at North Wal- sham in connetion with the East Norfolk election, has been removed irom the Commission of the Peace.His lordship himself publicly announced this fact at a meeting at North Walsham In celebration of the return of Mr.R.J.Price.He said the Tories had carried their revenge as far as they could.He did not consider it & disgrace, and he left it to the electors of East Norfolk to judge whether he deserved this insult from the Tory Government.Mr.Price, M.P., expressed his disgust at the tactics of the Tory party in removing Lord Wodehouse irom the bench, and said there were gcores of Tory magistrates who had committed worse offences than this technical assault, and who yet remained on the roll.He moved a resolution declaring that the removal of Lord Wodehouse was not only a great injustice, but a great loss to the district, and ho suggested that a monster petition should be prepared for presentation to the Lord Chancellor.The resolution was carried unanimously.,The proceedings of the Trade Union Congress, says the London Times, have disappointed the hopes we formed about them.The congress has had a fair opportunity of improving on its last year\u2019s work, but it has not taken advantage of it.We find, on the contrary, a repetition of the old faults wnich exposed the Norwith Congress to general and well-deserved ridicule.Collectivist theor- les are in the same favor as before.We have never unreservedly approved of trade unionism 10 any of its forms.out with Old Unionism in the ascendant we certainly looked for something less preposterous than the Cardiff Congress nas put rorward.We see, L100, with some amusement, that the congress nas de- ciared by an overwhelming majority for the speedy abolition of a second chamber, as hostile to labor legislation, and that it has gone a little out of itd way 10 express Is disapproval of the German Emperor and of the manager or the aff Vale Railway.We should have thought that at the present moment the congress might have felt that à more modest attitude was becoming to it.THe gen- cral election has resulted in the signal discomfiture of some of its most prominent members.Old and new Unionists have been involved in the same catastrophe.We may add, further, as a correspondent has polnted out, that even in its own little kindgom the importance of the congress has been markedly on the decline.\u2018Trade unionism is less popular with the working classes than it used to be.It is a question, further, by what right at any time the Trade Union Congress could speak as representing the working classes.In the day of its extreme prosperity it did not represent quite one-seventh of their number; and In 1853, out of eleven million industrial workers in the United Kingdom, there were, roughly speaking, one million un- fonists and ten million non-unionists.Such facts as these throw additional ridicule on the proceedings at Norw cule on g Norwich and IRELAND, An urtastally targe number or emigrants left Coal-island, and Stewartstown, Co.Tyrone, and Draperstown, County Derry, during the past week.It is noteworthy that the emigrants are mostly young girls and boys, who have been engaged at service, but a good many of them are tho sons and daughters of small] farmers.At the meeting of the Dublin Corporation on Monday, the Unionist members being absent in accordance with their resolution passed on Saturday, Mr.Reilly moved the resolution of which he had given notice that the members of the Corporation in their robes of office should take part in the coming public demonstration in honor of the memory of the late Mr.Parnell on the occasion of the anniversary of his death.The resolution was passed ananim- ously.The interesting function of formally opening a dairy factory, estabiished under the auspices of the Irish Agricultural Organization Society, took place on Friday at Ballywilliam, near Nenagh, in the presence of a large attendance of local gentry, farmers and others interested in the agricultural co-operative movement.It is the first of à number of co-operative undertakings of its kind, by which it is proposed to supersede the old system of dairying in that part of the country, and it is an excellent and complete concern in every detail.It seems that the distbirbances in Truath threatened to be of a much more serious natûre than was at first anticipated.A correspondent says it is now stated on authority that the ground in the vicinity in which the emergency men were employed was ploughed up with bullets, and that the party were in a very hazardous position for some time.At the beginning of the hostilities the police charged their weapons with backshot, but later, when matters began to assume a serious aspect, the buckshot was withdrawn, and ball cartridges inserted in the rifies.Notwithstanding that the police were pressed to fire on the crowd they refused to do so, as there werz women present.Sir John Leslie, steward, it is understood, decided to withdraw from Treanor\u2019s holding sooner than see any Wood shed.The chief diffi culty would seem to be getting away from the farm.The hilltops were covered with people, who threw stones and other missiles at the emergency men as they retired.No arrests have been made, and it is understood that no arrests will follow.À sensational occurrence, which threatens to assume the dimensions of a society scandal (says the Freeman's Journal), is stated to have taken place at Kil- beggan on Sunday last.The facts as eli cited from a most reliable source are said to te as follows: Mr.John Locke, senior partner in the Kilbepgan Distillery, had een absent from home for some days, amd on returning on Saturday evening last he found Captain F.T.Lund, ¢th Lancers, Aldershot, staying! at his house as the guest ofl Mrs.Locke.Captain Lund had been a visitor there previously during the hunting season last winter, but on Mr.Locke\u2019s arrival home on Saturday it would appear he ordered the guest to lcave.The latter is stated to have declined to comply, and an angry altercation followed, in the course of which Mr, Locke brought in a number of his works men to expel Captain Lund by force.Ultimately the matter ended for the time being, the captain being expected to leave next day.On Sunday, however, another altercation emsued.Mr.Locke sought the assistance of the constabolary on the ground that he apprehended a breach of the peace, and Head Constable Hanna, with two members of the force, proceeded to the house.Mr.Locke again requested Captain Lund to quit his residence, and after several angry passages and recriminations the last-named is stated to have asked that he should be granted two hours for packing.The reply is said to have been that only fifteen minutes would be allowed, at the expiration of which time the captain\u2019s baggage was deposited outside the street door, and he shortly afterwards drove off on a hackney car to the residence of Mr.James H.Locke, (bro: ther of Mr.John Locke), at Armaglue.Captain Lund is said to have subsequently left for the house of Mr.Featherston: hanizh, Carrick, County Westmeath.The affair has caused tremendous excitement.SCOTLAND Robert Burns, the last surviving relative of Scotland's poet, received a few days ago from a representative of the Scotsman a gift of £13 from Scottish associations in South Africa.Bicycles are used by 38 men of the County of Aberdeen Constabulary.The Town Council of Aberdeen has fixed the price of gas at 3s 4d per thousand scubic feet, a reduction of one penny on last year\u2019s rate.A terrific thunder storm passed over Perthshire one night last week, the houses being shaken by the heavy reverberations of the thunder.The rivers are flooded, and great damage has been done to the crops by the inundation of a large tract of country.Many houses were badly flooded, especially in Crieff and its neighborhood.\u2019 It scemg a pity that the nvgotiations for \u2018the incorporation of the various small bunghs around Edinburgh with the metropolis should hive come to a standstill.It is hoped that only a temporary hitch blocks the way.There is no doubt tlfan an !mmense amount of trotble and vexation would be saved to both the police and postal authorities if this arrangement couM be carried into effect.The Duke of Sutherland, in observance of the good old Scottish custom, according to which every man\u2019s children, from the laird\u2019s downwards, went to the parish school, has this year sent his two sons, the Marquis of Stafford and Lord Alistair Gower, to the Golspie Public (or Board) School, Thus the Marquis begins his education among those who will one day be his tenants and workmen.It is satisfactory to think that the new Water Supply Scheme for the City of Ed- inbureh from the Talla system is on the fair way to realisation.At last the Scottish metropolis will enjoy ra water supply that will be both abundant and good.That from Alnwickhill, the Crawley Springs, and Glencorse is excellent, but it is not nearly adequate to the growing wamts of the people! An interesting wedding took place on Wednesday morning at Douglas Castle, Lanarkshire, the seat of the Earl and Countess of Home.The contracting part- fes were Lieut.Lord Gillford, R.N., eldest son of Admiral Earl of Clanwilliam, and Lady Mary Margaret Elizabeth Douglas Home, eldest daughter of the Earl of Home.The bridegroom, it will be remembered, is one of the few survivors of the Victoria disaster.How many rats should put an ordinary man to flight?We now know that thirty won't cause a Scotch judge to turn tail.Sheriff Campbell Smith has just had before him at Dundec a case of broken

promises to be a very great success.A number of the choirs from various parts of the Highlands have indicated their intention of competing.Through the efforts of Mr.R.Macieod, Inverness, the ;gold medalist of last mod for solo singing, Inverness is likely to be this year represented by ihe choir of the Blind Institute.This choir is well trained by Mr.Roddie, and have good prospects of carrying off a prize.The expenses of sending the choir will be somewhat heavy.\u201cAn Comunn Gaidkealach\u201d has agreed to contribute a handsome sum in respect of the choir services at the great Gaelic concert in the evening, Lut a considerable sum is still required.The new conductor of the Sccbtish Orchestra, whose musical season in Glasgow will soon be beginnin%, is \u2018a Dutchman.His mame is William Kes, amd he is a native of Dordrecht.Thirty-nine years of age, Mr.Kes hhs had a long career, for he early studied the violin.Having obtained a violin scirolarship, he spent three years \u2018under Wicniawski, Joachim, Richter, and David.Then he became principal violinist of the orchestra at the Park Theatre, Amsterdam, and afterwards became conductor.Then he returned to Dordrecht as director of its Conservatoire.Since 1588 ke has been corducting a fine series vf orchestral concerts in Amsterdam, introducing many examples of early musical work.Mr.Kes has been created Knight of Orange and Nas- san.Besides being a distinguished player and conductor, Mr.Kes has genaine talent as a composer of sonatas amd somgs.The General Assembly's Commission on the Religious Condition of the People last week held meetings in the Presbyteries of Caithness, Dornoch, Tain and Dingwall.Little or no religious indifference, as the phrase is generally understood, preveils in the north, says a correspondent, but from that pecullar sense of \u2018\u2018Unworthiness\u2019 which is characteristic of Highlanders, great difficulty is experienced in inducing them to become communicants.As regards the relations with other churches, the ministers of all, with one exception, reported that there were the most friendly feelings, : nothing more nor and that they were frequently asked to take part in religious as well as social: gatherings with the ministers of the Free Church.\"The old fceling of host.i- ity to the Established Church had given way, and now its ministers were cvoery- where made welcome.What a melancholy affair the late strike in Dundee has been.There seems to have been nothing of the kind.A few boys, whose services are necessary in the jute manufacture, suddenly resolved to strike for an increase of wages.It was refused to them.Some of the workpeople were of necessity thrown out of employment by the strike of the lads, and then, apparently without any consideration of the possible consequences, mill after mill was closed by the resolution of the operatives to strike for 10 per cent.advance in wages.They do not appear to have consulted together on the subject.The strike seems to have spread as a fire tight spread, or as infection might spread.It was cstimat- ed that between 30,000 and 40,600 operatives were out of work last week, and at least 20,000 of them must have been out of work for nearly three weeks.They have lost all the wages that they would have earned in that time, and they have not even the small satisfaction of having got an advance now.The great-grandson of the poet is an officer in the employment of the city of Edinburgh, and wears the distinguishing uniform of the corps.Toa man in the enjoyment of good health, and with no encumbrance, the position is one of tolerable comfort, but unfortunately the last descendant of the Scottish bard is now practically unfit for duty of any kind, and most of the work of his office has to be performed by his wife.Ront.Burns was originally a soldier, but being the only son of his mother, he vas prevailed upon to purchase his discharge, after seven years\u2019 service, for the sum of eighteen pounds.Then, like many a Tommy Atkins, who has no pension to fall back upon, he took to all sorts of odd jobs, chiefly of an open-air character; and finally he found himself, through the good offices of Mr.Dobbie, the painter and decorator in George St., and the late Baflie Hall, of the Edinburgh Town Council, installed under Mr.Macleod, the city gardener.For some time he was employed in the city gardens, until in lifting a heavy stone on the Calton Hill he met with an accident which confined him to the infirmary for three months, and left him a changed and weakened man.Curiously enough, the accident, which in a great measure is responsible for the present unfortunate condition, took place Immediately.under the monument erected to the memory of his great-grandfather.The result of that accident, combined with rheumatism, has been to leave him in such a condition that he is often confined to bed for days together, and even when he is in health he hobbles about leaning on a stick, the picture of a worn-out man.THE COLONIES.The cabman\u2019s lot at Melbourne cannot be a happy one.In order to meet the competition of omnibuses and tram cars threepenny fares have been

politics, and, with her husband, has published a remarkable manifesto.All sections of public life are freely criticized, but against Mr.Rhodes, \u201cthe argument,\u201d says the Cape Times, \u2018takes on the note of passion.The Prime Minister is accustomed fo bitter and continuous attack, the sources, the motives or the manner of which often draw the sting.But this is the most tremendous anti- Rhodes broadside that we have yet seen.It pulsates with energy and conviction ; it has subtle suggestions of scrrow as well as anger; it seems to cover everything; and it marshals everything to witness against this one man as a sinister and dangerous influence.As Mr.Rhodes, in spite of risking his Dutch following by Scab legislation, has still and seems likely to continue to have an exceedingly large majority, it is a very bad look-out for Cape Colony if all this be true.It is a tremendcus indictment.\u201d Among the re- irogressive measures noted are: IRais- Labor Tax, Alienation of public lands, minerals and precious stones, here and in Rhodesla.Taxing, not luxuries, monopolies and liquor, but the peoples food and necessarics, Letting Scab continue while Australi eradicates it.Haarhoff\u2019s Curfew Bin, ; FORFIGN.According to the figures given in Petite Republique the subscriptions already obtained in Paris and the provinces for the Carmeux strike by

been able to produce men capable of building high class marine engines.Ships are built in various parts of that country, and Russia has turned out many fine specimens of warships.But the Czar has to send abroad for his engines.Attempts are being made to arrange another \u201chorseless carriage\u2019 competition on somewhat similar lines to the one which took place recently in France.\u2018The Engineer believes that a very large trade can be done in the production of the new vehicle, if only a suitable carriage can be designed.Already, it ls said, prizes to the extent of £1,000 have been offered in view of the forthcoming competition.A shocking scene was witnessed at the Pezon Menagerie at Lyons, which it is hoped will serve as a lesson to amateur frequenters of cages of wild animals.A railway porter named Leon Eyssette, anxious to have his photograph taken in the cage of a well-known llon, Romulus, was literally torn to pleces by the animal.The tamer Lucas was sent for, but he arrived too late.The occurrence has created great excitement in Lyons.The Perils newspapers continue to discuss the reported holsting of the British flag on the Minquier Rocks, between Jer- séy and St.Malo.Most of them call upon the French Government to refuse to abandon a group of Islets situated almost within cannon-shot of the French coast.Others demand that the group shall at least be neutralized.The Minister of Marine is stated by the Echo de Parii to be about to send another vessel to ascertain definitely whether the British flag has been hoisted or not.The curious fact is brought out by a writer in a French newspaper that Aud gustus von Bismarck, one of the ances tors of the Iron Chancellor, began his career as a soldier in the army of France.He fought in Lorraine and Burgundy in the seventeenth century; during the operations of Bernard of Saxe Weimar, which had for their final result the passing of Alsace Into the hands of France.\u201cA Bismarck,\u201d says this French writer.\u2018has taken Alsace from us; a \u2018Bismarck helped to give Alsace to us.\u201d M.Victor Bouteilhe, the father of the Rothschild bomb-thrower, Leon Bou- teilhe, was, says a Paris correspondent, a staff-officer of Gen.Dombrowski during the Commune of 1871.He was, therefore, in the same company with Commandant Henry, the father of Emil Henry, who was guillotined for the outrages in the rue des Bons Enfants and at the Cafe Terminus.Leon Bouteilhe's education was paid for by a wealthy priest, but he was expelled from the seminary for misconduct.Bouteilhe\u2019s sisters occupy highly respectable positions near Paris.One is married, the other heving nearly completed her novitiate as a Sister of Charity.The \u2018Queen Regent of Spain a few days ago, says a Reuter telegram, received a visit at her summer residence of Miramar from the Papal Nuncio, the Bishop of Vitoria, and the Prior of Consuegra.After luncheon, while the Queen conversed with the Nuncio, King Alfonso boldly challenged the Bishop of Vitoria to a game at billiards, The prelate accepted, the Prior of Consuegra undertook to chalk the cues and mark tha game, and play began.There was ah amusing contrast between the persons of the players.The Bishop is a tail man, while the little King, though valorously striving to make the most of his height, had difficulty at times in reaching his ball.The game was watched with much interest by the guests who surrounded the table.The Bishop did not win.PROTESTANT AND CATHOLIC CLERGY MEN ve Are of One Mind Touching the Ke- medial Character of Dr.Agnew\u2019s

Baptist Rev.G.A.Anderson; by prominent members of the Methodist Church, and by the Rev.Father Hinchey, and many of his parishioners.They al tcll the one story of the great good this medicine has done

they live for others and others must in return take care of them.* * » But my most serious word is to my fellow and brother critics.If there is a class of men who can do much to help the success of the season they form that class.Not by insensate and indiscrimin- te adulation\u2014the \u201cpuff\u201d and the \u201cboom\u201d ve never assisted and will never as- bist art.Criticism is not a play upon words, to be jockeyed and used to exalt the writer at the expense of the subject.It is first a gift and then an education.The gift of criticism is a rare one, for it must mean that incisive and administrative capacity which sees where the ordinary individual may only feel his way, and demands form and perfection in everything and can light the way to them, but it must just the same be augmented by a careful ahd earnest study of the subject.However brilliant the natural gift of criticism may be 1g- nere'.ce will stultify it and render its Judgements worthless.* * » The artists for the French Opera arrived a week ago, and the opening will take place next Thursday.All the seats for the opening night have been disposed of I hear.This is gratifying, but hardly unexpected; if it were an over-eub- scription for the last performance there would be ground for surprise.Besides the company and scenery the management has brought over three instry- mentalists, two violinists and a planist.One of the violinists, a M.Barbe, and nephew of M.Adrien Barbe, the first tenor, made a great impression on the vessel on the way across.It is said he is a fine artist.* @ +» \u201cLe Songe d\u2019une Nuit d'Ete (Midsummer Night's Dream), with which it is probable \u2018the season will open, was written by Ambroise Thomas in 1850 for the Opera Comique, of Paris, where it was produced on April 20, 1850.This Was sixteen years before Mignon, which is, it may be said, his representative work, nor does \u2018\u2019Le Songe\u201d belong to the rame perlod.Critics have divided Thomas\u2019 work into three divisions or periods, and this opera belongs to the middle period, which extended from 1848 to 1861, comprising very light opera, almost bouffe, which, being poetical and refined in form, made a protest against the forced and hackneyed forms of the Italian school.\u201cLe Songe d\u2019une Nuit d'Ete,\u201d although a burlesque on the lives and times of Queen Elizabeth and Shakespeare, hag no Connection with Shakespeare\u2019s play of the same name.* +» * A recent clipping says: \u201cA concert will be given in October (in New York) to introduce Master Maurier Kaufmann, a young American violinist, who is sald to be a boy of exceptional talent.\u201d \u201cAmerican violinist\" is good with that name, but perhaps Master Kaufmann was born in some part of America.It £erms a rather slim argument towards \u201cAmericanism in music\u201d and reminds mea of a squib I saw one time (that in Halifax they manufactured sardines out of sprats by hanging up a map of the Mediterranean in the canning room.» * » Emile Sauret, the distinguished pianist, comes to America in January next.This of the three living ex-husbands of Teresa Carreno, the great pianiste, who has been divorced three times, her other ventures being Tagliapletra and Eugene D Albert.It the Sadducees of old could have imagined such a conjugal condition as this it would have enabled them to make their paser about the woman whe had Seven husbands in the grave very much more intricate.* + » There is a rumor that Massault may at last visit this continent this winter.* .The New York season is announced in brilliant colors.Two opera seasons, Abbey\u2019s opening Nov.18, of French, Italian, German and English grand opera, and Damrosch\u2019s of Wagner opera later on; also the Philarmonic concerts, Damrosch Symphony concerts, both beginning in November, the Oratorio Society and the Boston Symphony concerts.Among the Operatic novelties will be \u201cLe Cid,\u201d \u201cLa Navaraise,\u201d \u201cHansel and Gretel\u201d and \u201cBartered Bride.Among the artists, vocal and instrumental, will be Calve, Melba, Sembrich, Nordica, the de Reszkes, Plancon, Brema, Januschow- sky, Lolo Beth, Olitzka, Rivarde, Loe- baume, Ondricek, Saurét, Marsick, Na- chez, Paderewski and Emil Fischer.* * The Paderewpk! tour will be as follows: Oct.30, New York, Polish Fan- tasie with Damrosch Orchestra;

she decided to try a medicine that had cured thousands; she had faith in its wondrous powers to make her a New woman.Paine\u2019s Celery Comppund was ber chosen agent; she ûsed it, and thanks Providence for the happy change effected.She writes as follows regarding her cure : \u201cIt is with much pleasure that I testify to the value of your wonderful Paine\u2019s Celery Compound.I was a great sufferer from severe attacks of neuralgia in the left ovary.At times the attacks were so acute that I thought I would lose my reason.\u2018Several doctors treated me, and I was a patient in St.Joseph\u2019s Hospital, Hamilton.I obtained no relief from medical treatment.The doctors said unless I had the ovary taken away I could not be cured.\u201cInstead of submitting to the operstion I used Paine\u2019s Celery Compound, and I am thankful your valuable medicine cured me.I feel like a new woman, and I would like all sufferers to know just what this great medicine has done for me.\u201d \u2014_\u2014 Christianity and Mohammedanism, Outside of Christendom what we behold is stagnation and decay.Nowhere is there the faimtest sign of progress, except in Japan, ahd Japan has advanced by adopting the methods and imbibing freely the spirit, if not the actual creed, of Christendom.The horrors of Port Arthur prove that the assimilation of the Christian spirit is very impesfoct without the formal organ ism in which Helbas been historically enshrined; but at least these horrors were Bpologized for, and the war was otherwise tonducted according to the rules of civilized warfare.Japan is, therefore, the exception which proves the rule, and the exception iy due entirely) to the influence of Christianity.In all other non-Christian States whatever movement there may be is backward.And nowhere is that tendency more marked than under the rule of the Crescent.It is, therefore, an untortwnate time for a Moslem to choose for instituting a comparison between Islam 4nd Christianity, much o the disadvantage of the latter, both in- tellectuzlly and morally.Yet this is what some Indian Moslems have lately been doing.It is significant that these vindications of Islam, at the expense of Christianity, ali hail from India, where Islam has long ceased to he a ruling power, and has, therefore, been unable to exhibit its real spirit.\u2014Quarterly Review.\u2019 en cts cnt * DIZZINESS IN THE HEAD, This ts à Eure Precarsor of Apoplexy, and Dr.Agnew\u2019s Cure for the Heart at Once to be Taken, No one can read the daily papers with: out being seriously Impressed with the fact that a large mumber of people in the present age have within their system the evidence of apoplexy.This is seen and felt often in a trembling and ancertainty of the limbs, and frequently in an unplea- gant dizziness and lightness of the head.He is à very unwise man who, knowing these symptoms to exist, does not promptly take theasures to have them removed.We know of no remedy that has been so remarkably successful ip this particular as Dr.Agnow\u2019s Cure for the Heart.Primarily it is a heart Care, but it is equally effective in what is to some extent a pan allel disease, apopletic symptoms.In a season when unuspsl heat prevails and excitement often runs high, we are doing a kindness to men and women by letting Literary Notes.One would scarcely expect the story of the making of a pair of equestrian statues of Lincoln and Grant to be as interesting as a plece of fiction; but this it truly proves to be in McClure's Magazine for October, where Mr.Cleveland Moffett describes the long and patient labors of the artists O'Donovan Eakins, first in the collection and study ol documents and the discovery of suitable living inodels for horse and rider, and then in the actual modelling of the iile-size statues lately completed by them for the Brookiyn memorial arch.A grand-nephew of the poet Keats, Mr.John Giimer Speed, takes note, in the same number, oi the centenary of the poet\u2019s birth, in a paper written from original letiers and manuscripts in his possession.Mr.James R.Gilmore (\u201cEdmund Kirke) tells how the office of the New York Tribune was armed against the mob that assailed it at the time of the New York draft riots.Another newspaper article written largely from personal experience is Mr.James Creel- man\u2019s account of the London Times, and its development, character and policy under the mastership of three succeeding John Walters, the last of whom, shortly before his death, revised Mr.Creelman\u2019s paper.The quality of personal experience gives special value also to a paper by Theodore Roosevelt, president of the New York Police Board, on the closing of the New York saloons on Sunday; to astory of riding over an earthquake in a locomotive, by an engineer, Cy Warman; and to Governor Thayer's account of Gen.Grant\u2019s abrupt removal from command at Pilot Knob and his as abrupt restoration.So much for the matter-of-fact side of this number of McClure's.It is no less notable on the imaginative side, including new stories by Anthony Hope, Robert Louis Stevenson, Ian Maclaren and Stanley J.Wey- man, and a poem by Mrs.T.H.Huxley.The October Arena contains a startling paper by A.R.Barrett, an ex-Gov- ernment examiner for failed banks, entitled \u201cThe Era of Fraud.\u201d It should lead to prompt action looking toward protecting the pzople from unscrupulous guardians of their funds.The editor of the Arena gives a charming historical sketch on \u201c\u2018Chester-on-the-Dee,\u2019 the only walled city in England, and a place exceedingly rich in historical interest.This contribution Is made especially attractive by a number of exceedingly fine full-pago illustrations.Mr.Flower also contributes a paper on \u201cSir Thomas More,\u201d which is one of the series of papers on the Renaissance which have been appearing in the Arena.The brilliant, logical and incisive writer, Helen H.Gardener, contributes her third paper on the history of the recent legislative battle for sound morality.These contributions are of special value to all persons Interested in protecting girlhood and rais- Ing the standard of morality.The Herald has received several numbers of the Searchlight, of San Francisco, a woman's journal, devoted to social reform and the enfranchisement of women generally and particularly those of the Pacific coast.It is a bright, attractively gotten up paper, and will doubtless be of great assistance to the cause it advocates.It will interest Canadians to learn that the talented editor, Helen Gregory-Flesher, M.A., is a Hamilton lady.One of the most exciting tales of adventure from the pen of Stanley J.Wey- man since the appearance of A Gentleman of France is the House of the Wolf, a sketch of incidents during the massacre of St.Bartholomew.Mr.Wey- man's attention to detail imparts a local coloring to the story, so vivid that the scenes represented appear almost to be passing before the eyes of the reader.There is a pretty love story running through and relieving the almost too reullstic description of the horrors of that dreadful episode.The author's &now- ledge of the ffrench history of that period and his power to depict the important events of the time through the mouths of his heroes were never more clearly shown.(Copp, Clark & Co.) \u201cNeighbors of Ours,\u201d a book by Henry W.Nevinson, is in many respects a remarkable work.It aims to be nothing more than a series of sketches of low London life, but its striking realism cannot fail to Impress even the most careless reader.Mr.Nevinson has been almost cruelly true to life.He has sought an unlovely type, and he has not sought to idealize it.There are ten of these sketches of not widely varying merit, but one in particular, the \u201cSt.George of Rochester,\u201d 1s, perhaps, the most striking of all.These stories are told by Jacko Britton, who appears to be, from his own description of himself, a fair sample of a young London rough.He early introduces his readers to the \u201cneightors,\u201d whose curious doings make up the book.A knowledge almost startling of life among low class Londoners is betrayed throughout in expressions of thought which, while put into the patois of Jacko, could never have been conceived by that interesting young man.Nothing is spared in the way of language to make plain the manner of life of à very large proportion of the inhabitants of the modern Babylon.In the story of the St.George, to which reference has already been made, the talk of the old bargee in his describtion of the one romance of his life brings with it all the pathos that could be crowded into many à tale of drawing rooms and doings therein.It brings with it also the smell of the river, and the reader cannot fail to feel sorry for the old man who won the Doggett badge, but who lost at last the woman he loved\u2014albeit unlawfully.\u201cLittle Scotty\" is another pathetic story, and \u201cIn the Spring\u201d shows clearly how romance may even find a home in the heart of à dirty old pedlar of canary food.The last two stories, \u201cFather Chrig'~ mus\u201d and \u201cOnly an Accident\u201d plainly mus\u201d and \u201cOnly an Accident\u201d plainly betray something more than a passing knowledge with such military matters as fall to the lot of the average volunteer.\u201cAnd the good of an orfficer is as \u2019e\u2019s kind o\u2019 bound to see yer through; and if 'e don't, it ain't none 0\u2019 Yer doin\u2019, and yer've got \u2018im to curée at,\u201d remarks Jacko casually.Perhaps a better definition of the average soldier\u2019s views on the question could not be made.Altogether the book is of great interest, though it may possibly come im for harsh criticism on account of the very reglism which makes it so entertaining.eighbors of ours\u201d is one of the latest of Macmillan\u2019s Colonial Library, of which the Copp, Clark Co., Ltd., Toronto, are the agents in Canada.Edward Bok, the editor of the Ladies\u2019 Home Journal, has written a book for oung men called \u201cSuccessward: |A oung Man\u2019s \u2018Book for Young Men.\u201d which the Revells will publish in a fortnight.The book alms to cover all the important phases of a young man's life: hie business ifs, social life, his amusements, religious life, dress, his attitude towards women and the question of his marriage.This Is Mr.Bols\u2019s first book.\u201cAlton Locke\u201d has been reprinted by Macmillan & Co.in pocket form, with a brefatory memoir by Thos.Hughes, the celebrated author of \u201cTom Brown's Schooldays.\u201d fThe extraordinary popularity of Kingsley\u2019s work ts indicated on the title page: \u201cFirst published by Maemillan and Co., 1862;

The country has a character of its awn; yet ever and dgain it recalls old England more perhaps than any other part of the earth.There 18 a good deal of Devonshire In yon old farm which was settled years §° by Devonshirg men; Croker's Riv® Is much like a Yorkshire trout stream, and the pools In the early July evening show much th same insect life.But on the banks of the rivers bloom the calmia and azalea; and the Still ater far down amid the forests of pine fir has a vastness and solitude.which we do not see over here.What delightful \u2018trout fishing there is, too! how free they come ! only the mosquitoes and sand flies are cera tainly a drawback.And what a paradise for picnics! over the high gréund to Top sail Cove, and to Portugal Cove, and Tor- bay, and Flat Rock.They were no mean pienics in the old days, when the whola community seemed to turn out and drive off to the rendezvous in a continuous stream.For round about the sixties the island was prosperous, and the presence of the military gave life and tone to society.; A quarter of a century has wrought à change; the removal of the troops was certainly a loss; the thought of the island moved in a narrow ciréle: it lost touch with the outside World; and gradually selfishness and corruption have wrought the failure of responsible government.The present distress of the Newfoundland fishermen is due ly to economic causes; In some measure to the difficulty of the French shore: but very largely to that state of political degeneracy which made it possible tor the Supreme Court & year ago to unseat a whole ministry on petitlon.\u2014Westmin- ster Review.s mt em ms me ee er Natural beauty retained and enhanced NL \u201cAv ah \u201ca ol se oP \u201cee oN \u201c> oh ®» > ath, PS tite on TRE be Pepe kan BERR Se feel hd Sti ge qe AT The \u201cStar\u201d HOT WATER HEATER Is now the most perfect one on the market, being the only Heater provided with a Patent Syphon In jector, which enables it to heat on its own level, and a double base, with a Patent Moving Ash Sifter.No more ashes spread on the floor, and soiling the sections of the Heater, the same handle shaking the grate and sifting the ashes at the same time closed doors.further information to The Star Iron Company, 690 CRAIG STREET, MONTREAL.Sot SB BARR AR Sp st A child can do the work, Please call and see it, or write for Il 4 with 2 \u201ces LC EDUCATIONAL.EVENING CLASSES AT pee mtd.igen Corner Victoria Square and Craig St, Commerce Morday, Sept.30th.Individual instruction by nine teachers in Commércial, Shorthand, Tyhewriting, English, French andjCivil Service courses-on Monday, Wednesday'and Friday evenings.\u2018Write, call, or telephone 2890, for prospectus.Address J.D.DAVIS, Principal, The French and English Seminary for Young Ladies, At BERTHIER EN HAUT, P.Q,, will reopen on OCTOBER 1871.Address Madame P.CLEMENTS, Evening Classes FOR DAY WORKERS.Thorough instruction by the most competent teachors in FRENCH, ENGLISH, MECHANICAL DRAWING, BOOKKEEPING, ARCHITECTURAL DRAWING BUSINESS ARITMMETIC, PHONOGAAPHY, SBEEHAND DHAWING, PENMANSHIP, ELECTRICITY, CINAUTAUQUA CIRCLE, ELOCUTION, CIVIL GOVERNMENT, Full particulars and handsome prospectus describing all privileges of membership, on application.Young Men's Christian Association, Dominion Square.or of any other material which cary come der the lead of hardware that we havent got.When you can not find what you are looking for anywhele else, it's safe to say we have it.Moral\u2014~Come to us always when you are looking for any firat-class article in the hardware line, CAVANAGH CO.2547-53 Notre Dame St., COR.SEIGNEURS.Hardware, Stoves, Oils, Paints, Coal, &c E.\u2014AND\u2014 Plastic Asphalt Roofing, Building paper and roofing materials of al descriptions.GEO.W.REED, 783 and 785 Craig Street, STRONG AND PROSPEROUS, THE SUN LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY OF CANADA.Head Office - = .= Montreal THE MERCANTILE AGENCY, R.G.DUN & CO.150 Branches and Offices We offer special facilities for the collection of past due accounts.Test us.Office\u2014-IMPERIAL BUILDING A.C.MATTHEWS, Manager.LIVERPOOL, LONDON & GLOBE INSURANGE GOMPANY.Canada Board of Directors: Hon, HENRY STARNES, .Chairman Edmond J.Barboau, Esq, Deputy Chajrmag W.J.Buchanan, sda A.FB.Gault, Esq, Amount Invests ia Conalor®¥s 1,850,000 mount Invested in Canada, Available Assets, .- - 53,189,185 MERCANTILE RISKS accepted at lowest current rates, G.F.C, SMITH, Chief Agt.for the Dominion SUB-AGENTS: JOHN G, R.DRISCOLE, THos, Him GEo.R.ROBERTSON & SONS.Special Agent French Department, » A= \"ÉYRILLE LAURIN WOMEN = DOUBT SHOULD TAKE 12 PENNYROYAL WAFERS yy overcomg Weakness, irregularity and sers increase vigor and babish \u2018pains ofriehsttuation.\u201d They are \u201cLife Savers\u201d to #trls at wônianhooë, alding development uf organs and body.No known remedy for wotion equals them.Cannot de harm\u2014life becomes à pleasure.$1 per box at druggists by using Adam\u2019s Tutti Frutti, It alds digestion.Refuse imitations.4 THE TAUÉ SECRET OF HAPPY MARRIEO Livres BREWERS, DAWES& CO BREWERS.PALE ALES AND PORTER, LACHINE, P.Q.Mentreal Office, 521 St, James St BELL TELEPHONE, 563.E.Lacoste, St.Henri, is the only Bottler authorized to use our Labels.J.H.R.MOLSON & BROS.Ale and Porter Brewers, Have always on hand the various kinds ALE AND PORTER IN WOOD AND BOTTLES, FAMILIES REGULARLY SUPPLIED 1006 AOTRE DAME ST., MONTREAL REAL ESTATE EXCHANGE M.F.NOLAN, Accountant, Insurance and Financla Agent;
