Dark, [EEE FAMILY DOES NOT INTEND TO SUE pres The distressing mistake last Tuesday on the part of Dr.Proudfoot, of Beaver Hall Hill, which dooms Thomas Stewart, 17 cars of age, stepson of Mr.George P.Walker, of Messrs.J.R.Walker & Co., 33 Common street, to go through life sightless, has caused a great deal of talk throughout the city.Some years ago the boy had one of his eyes injured, and of late it had troubled him so much that the other eye became affected.It became evident that to save the good eye the injured one would have to be removed.Dr, Proud- foot was entrusted with the delicate task, On Tuesday the operation was performed.The boy was put under the influencs of an anesethetic, and the medicai man proceeded to work.But by some mischance he removed the good eye.Tha grief of young Stewart and his relatives when it was realized that the unfortunate lad\u2019s eyesight was gone can be more easily imagined than described.The mother of the boy is prostrated as a result of the shock.The blow was a severe one to Dr.Proud- foot, who, when he found out his mistake, acted, it is stated, like a man bereft of his senses, The Doctor's Story.Dr.Proudfoot is in great mental distress over the dreadful mishap.He told a Herald reporter \u2018this morning that he would willingly give his own eye could he restore sight to the unfortunate youth.He described how he came to attend Thomas Stewart in the first instance some four years ago.\u201cHe was brought to me,\u201d he said, \u201cat my summer residence, near Valois, on: Lake St.Louis.The members of the Walker family were spending the summer at Beaconsfield some four miles from my home, The boy, who was then , about twelve years of age, had been out walking with his step-father and Mayor Walker of Westmount, when a serious and painful accident occurred.They had been standing for a time on one of the bridges in the neighborhood, and while the elders were talking the boy was amusing himself cutting his name on the wooden railing.As he picked out the wood from the leiters he had outlined, the knife slipped and entered the sclerotic coat of the right eye\u2014 not the left as has been erroneously stated, and passing forward cut its way througn the iris and cornea.\u201cThe boy I learned, was at once conveyed to a friend\u2019s house, and he was driven over to my house afterwards\u2014it was on a Sunday morning\u2014so far as I can remember.1 treated him with the object of saving, if possible, the sight of the injured eye, but later it became evident that the retina was injured and that the cight could not be restored.\u201cAfter treating the patient then I never saw him again professionally until the 14th of April last.The injured eye had become exceedingly troublesome and inflamed and fears began to be extertained that the sight of the sound eye might be affected Thus it was that I came to be again sent for.My advice was that the useless eye should be removed and that it should be replaced by a glass one so that there should be no danger of the sound eye becoming diseased.Alter giving that advice 1 did not see the patient again until Tuesday last\u2014the day I performed the operation.1 wish it to be distinctly understood that he was not in any respect continuously under my treatment, and that 1 was only consulted at these intervals.he young man willingly consented that the operation should be performed\u2014 anxious that the sight of his left eye should be preserved.Arrangements were accordingly made for the operation, and I went to the house for the purpose of removing the eye, two other doctors accompanying me.\u201cThe patient was asleep in his room upstairs in Mr.Walker's house on Dorches- ter street, and an anesthetic was admin- 1stered, and 1 removed the eye.During the operation the patient\u2019s tace was covered, the eye alone being exposed.I believed that all was right.I went down stairs and told the Jad\u2019s mother that the operation had been quite successfal.1 went upstairs again and then to my amazement and horror 1 found out what a8 mistake 1 had made.I had removed the sound eye and not the sightless right \u201cl cannot account for the mistake I made; it was simply a fatality.I have not à single word to urge in extenuation.W hile the operation was performed on Tuesday the sky was overcast.But the operation is 80 simple and I have perform- 1t s0 often i on tho dass 4 at I could have done it \u201c1 believe that since the operatio Buller, the well-known occulist a Do sent for and that his efforts have been directed to saving the sight of the injured eye.1 am unable to hold out any hope of success in that direction.The lad \u2018is about sixteen.He jus is hoy\u201d pout sixty had just finished Mr, Walker\u2019s Statement.To be struck suddenly blind in all the vigor and sunshine of early youth is a calamity second only to that of death.This is what in all probability will be the result to Thomas Stewart, of the terribie mistake made by Dr.Proudfoot.Mr.and Mrs.Walker feel keenly the terrible affair, and although the victim id the frightful ertor is bearing up brave: , he realizes most keenly .the position in which he has been placed, P Mr.Walker detailed the circumstances connected with the first injury to this step- eton\u2019s eye, and Dr.Proudfoot\u2019s connection with the case.Dr.Proudfoot had been the nearest physician that could be reached conveniently when the accident had taken place, some six or seven years ago.He had been very successful in treating the eye, and had pleased both the patient and the family.So that when, some weeks ago, the injured eye had been further hurt by receiving a blow from a baseball and also a pea, the family turn- | ed to Dr.Proudfoot.He had advised the removal of the eye, and had been authorized to proceed with the operation.\u201cWe had always looked on Dr.Proudfoou as a careful and painstaking man, and as far as we could see there was no reason to change this opinion.After the operation the doctor expressed himself as much pleased with his work, and made a point of himself informing the boy's mother of the success of the operation, It was when he returned to see the patient, after telling us how successful the work had been, that the mistake was discovered by himself.He gave a cry, and we thought the lad must be dead.Then it was we were informed of the terrible truth.The doctor was greatly affected, and we all sympathize with him.\u201d Mr.Walker stated that no legal proceedings would be taken.Will Be Sightless.Dr.Buller, who is in daily attendance on the boy, states that the probabilities are that the boy will be blind for life.He is not suffering, and of course every attempt will be made to restore or retain the sight of the remaining eye, but the strain to which it has been subjected by the operation, coupled with the original complaint, will probably result 4a lifclong blindness.Dr.Proudfoot has for some time back held the position of aurist and oculist to the Western \u2018Hospital.Dr.Perrige, who is at the head of that institution, refused to make a statement in regard to Dr.Proudfoot\u2019s connection with the institution, in view of the unfortunate affair.He says the has no authority to speak for the Governing Board, which wiil not meet for a number of months.Another gentleman, a layman,who holds a prominent position on the Western Hos pital board, stated that he had beer greatly shocked by the affair, which, considering the standing of the surgeon, was altogether unaccountable.\u201cay Other Views.Mr.Wolferstan Thomas, when seen, said that the matter had not yet come before the Board of Management of the General Hospital, so that they could take ne- tice of it.The board was not responsible for the appointment of the medical staff ariyway, as the doctors were chosen at a meeting of governors.The choice was then confirmed or disapproved of by the Medical Board.They never questioned what the Medical Board lid.The operation, he wished it noté, had not taken place at the hospital.\u2014@-\u2014 THE DREYFUS MIX-UP.Now a Sensation Has Been Caused by & Charge That M.Delcasse Gave Out the Evidence.Paris, April 27.\u2014A great sensation has followed the publication by the rigaro of the supplemental deposition made betore the United Chambers of the Court of Cassation by M.Paleologue, one of the permanent oflicials of the Foreign Office, whose evidence establishes a new forgery.The Soir, an anti-Dreyfus organ, violently attacks the Minister of Ioreign Affairs, M.Delcasse, under whose orders M.Pa- leologue\u2019s second deposition was made.It charges M.Delcasse with giving the Figaro the evidence offered before the court, particularly \u2018that of M.Paleologue, declaring that \u2018\u2018nobody else could have had any interest in making it publie.\u201d _ À rumor circulated eariy this evening that Col.Du Paty De Clam bad been arrested, turns out to be untrue, but it is understood that at his own request, he will be examined on Saturday.The Temps will announce to-morrow that the Court of Cassation has applied to the Minister for the Colonies, M.Georges Guillain, to deliver the document which was found in French Guiana in 1897, among other Dreyfus documents, and sent to the Colonial Office under the strictest precautions.It is alleged that this document absolutely proves \u2018the innocence of Dreyfus.NAUD VS.MARCOTTE.Court of Appeal Ho.d; Mr.Naud\u2019s Coun ter Claim to Have Been Extinguished by Prescription of One Year.In the case of Naud and Marcotte the Court of Appeal yesterday confirmed the decision of the Superior Court, but on different grounds from those upon which that decision had been based.Mr.Naud had been sued for the amount of a promissory note.He pleaded compensation in the shape of a counter-claim for board and lodging furnished to his creditor at the rate of $120 a year for twenty-one years; also that the debt had been liquidated.It was replied that the counter-claim was extinguished by prescription of one year.The Superior Court had held this reply well founded, and dismissed Mr.Naud\u2019s counter-claim.That gentleman appealed, arguing that it was only claims of hotel and boarding-house keepers to whose claims the one year\u2019s prescription invoked applied, and the Court of Appeal maintained this ground yesterday; but, as the other point was against Mr.Naud, the decision did not affect the result of the case.-\u2014 _\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 A POINT IN LIBEL, \u2014 Illustrating the Law on Libel on Statements of Opinion Based on Admitted Facts.In upholding the judginent of the Superior Court in the case of Germain & Langlois, Sir Alexander Lacoste, sitting in appeal, drew an interesting distinction between alleged libels\u2019 which were allegatons of fact, and statements of opinion based on admitted facts.To say, \u201cSo and So is a thief,\u201d would be libellous: but to say, \u201cIf So and So acted as he says he acted, he is a thief,\u201d would not be actionable.In the case in point, Mr.Langlois, of Ste.Rcse, had told Mr.\u2018Germain, notary, that, if he had acted as he said he had acted in a certain matter of a transfer of property, he ought to be driven from the country.Mr.Germain sued for libel, but lost his action in both courts.In the first place there was no conclusive proof of publication, until the conversation had been repeated in evidence in another case, and, in the second place, the statement, even accepting Mr.Germain\u2019s version of the words uttered, was not libellous.Judge Bianchet dissented from the majority.@ «mmr CAN'T SEIZE HIS PAY.Court of Appeal Decides That an Assessor is a Public Functionary and His Salary is Exempt.The Court of Appeal decided yesterday, in maintaining the opposition in the case of Stewart and Euard, that an assessor is a public functionary, and that, being such, his salary is exempt from seizure.The law says that the salaries of public functionaries, except Provincial Government nominees, are exempt, and the courts now decide that the function of the city assessors being jugicial and essentially public in their character, these officials come under the class of \u2018public functionaries.\u201d _\u2014-\u2014 Germany Troubled With Smallpox.Berlin, April 27.\u2014Virulent smallpox has appeared simultaneously in various parts of Germany, notably at Iserlohn, Hanover, and

and House of Commons Decides That Their Independence is Not at Stake, THE ARCHBISHOPS LETTER.mae (Staff Correspondence of The Herald.) Ottawa, April 28.\u2014A proposal is afoot which, if successful, will result in considerable changes in the appearance of Lake Simcoe, about the shores of which cluster a number of those breezy resorts where the toil-tired are wont to while away the blistering days of midsummer.Up to the present the pretty northern lake has been left in a state of nature.Latterly the commercial instinct has been gaining ground and yesterday a deputation con- gisting of Messrs, William \u2018Wright and Charles Elliott, of Brantford; W.German and W.E.Fraser of West Gwillimbury, and F.A.Gillespie, of Mara, waited upon the Minister of Public Works and urged that dynamite be applied at the mouth of the Severn river in order that the level of the lake may be lowered by four or five feet.Were this done they stated that some 80,000 acres of land would be opened up to cultivation, and that the valuable peat deposits of the Holland river marsh would bg made accessable.They further reasoned that as matters at present stood the lake was unimportant from a navigation point of view and that the change proposed would not seriously interfere with the tourist traffic in which the half dozen steamers mow on the lake are almost solely engaged.Hon.Mr.Tarte promised consideration.Whilst the proposal is favored by a number of farmers about the lake and by the promoters of the considerable peat industry which has been started in the neighborhood during the past year, opposition is to be looked for from some of the people of Bradford, who are interested in keeping up water communication between that town and points on Lake Simcoe my means of the Holland river, which would be rendered unnavigable by the change, and from Orillia people, who rave property about Lake OCouchiching, which is drained by the Severn into the Georgian Bay.Whilst Lake Simcoe is a deep-water lake, Lake Couchiching is shallow, and approaches to the summer places about 1ts shores would be, seriously affected were the level of the lake altered.Indeed, in the opinion of Mr.Bennett, M.P.ter East Simcoe, it is probable that \u201cThe Narrowy,\u201d by which communication ds kept open botween Lake Simcoe and Lake Couchiching, would be closed to navigation.The Mayor of Orillia has been communicated with, and it is probable that the other side of the story will be heard within a few days.Several fishing clubs will also doubtless protest against disturbing the bass beds on the shallow lake shoals, some of which would be laid almost bare.Harbor Repair Probabie.The Minister of Public Works received a number of Montreal gentlemen during the day.From Mayor Prefontaine and Chairman Mackay, of the Harbor Commission, he heard additional reasons why Montreal should be made a national port.In view of the strong sentiment in favor of giving attention to the requirements of the harbor which is the key to the whoie Ca- padian transportation scheme, it 18 probable that a liberal provision will Le made in the supplementary estimates.Won\u2019t Force Railway Passes.Mr.Bostock\u2019s proposal providing for the issue of railway passes to members of the Senate and the House of Commons was refused a second reading in the House yesterday, the members deciding that ner independence was not in any way compromised by accepting the passes given them induvidually at present.The Forfeit Deposited.There is a fair assurance that the Cape Breton Railway project will be cac:1eJd into effect at an eariy date, the S10,U00 forfeit having already been deposited to the credit of the Nova Scotia Government, us a guarantee of good faith on the part of the contractors.The small vote in the division upon Sir Richard Cartwright\u2019s amendment aking for a six months\u2019 hoist to the Monk\u2019s Lill to amend the Civil Service Act wis sutfi- ciently accounted for in the indiffecence of many of the members of the House tc the contents of the bill, and in the coun:er attraction offered by the Masonic banquet during the evening.The Drumond County Railway question will be considered when the House meets to-day.Prof.Robertson, Commissioner of Agriculture and Dairying, will appear before the select standing committee on agricul ture and colonization on Tuesdav nest.The commissioners evidence will deal largely with the fundamental conditions in the growing of crops in Canada.A comparative statement published xes- terday shows the traffic on the Rideau Canal during the past two years was as follows: Vessels, 1897, 2,553; 1898, 2.367; tonnage of vessels, 1897, 151,423; 1898, 153,- 086; freight tonnage, 1897, 77,270; 1898, 54,946.Health Bill Passed.In the Senate yesterday afternoon, Ion.David Mills moved that the bill for the presemation of the public health on public works be read a third time.Senator McMillan drew attention to the fact that the bill as it stood allowed only medical men qualified in the province where the public work was being done to practice on the work.He thought that medical men qualified in any province might be allowed to practice on such works.; ; Hon.David Mills said that it was intended in the bill that medica! men should not be allowed to practice in nro- \"I'he bill was read a third time and passed.The Archbishop\u2019s Letter, Senator Bernier asked whether any memorandum communications or representations have been received within the last twelve months by the Gowernor-General in-Council or any member of the Government from any person whatsoever bearing on school matters in Manitoba or the Northwest.i Hon.David Mills believed that a letter was written some time ago by the Archbishop of Manitoba, who also wrote to the First Minister desiring that for the present, at all events, the letter should remain private and confidential.There were no other communications.Mr.Bouchard Will Translate.On motion of Hon.David Mills the consideration in committee of the bills to amend the expropriation act and to amend the Exchequer Court act was postponed until Tuesday next.On motion of Senator Bellerose the report of the Debates Committee, recommending that Mr.Bouchard be engaged to translate the Senate debates into l'rench was adopted.In reply to a question by the Minister cf Justice, Senator Bellerose said that Mr.Desjardins had been temporally employed to do the translating and Sir Mackenzie Bowell remarked that the change was being made, he understood, in the interests of economy.Want Another Holiday.Senator Primrose gave notice that he would enquire whether Capt.N.N.Nor- wood is still, in the employ of the Gowern- ment in the Yukon what is his position and salary and whether the government is aware that he is an American citizen.Senator Ogilvie gave notice that he would move that when the Senate adjourns to-day it stand adjourned until Wednesday, May 10th.+ CONDEMNED GALICIANS.One Says He is Ready to Die, the Other in Danger of Losing His Reason.Winnipeg, Man, April 28.\u2014The condemned Galiccans\u2014Simeon Czuby and Wassyl Gusczezak\u2014who are to be hanged on the 26th of May, are receiving every attention possible from the authorities.The younger man, Guszezak, is bearing up well; in fact, his spirits are

Tracks.The Kailway Committee of tne Privy Council Spends the Merning in Discussion.Ottawa, April 28.-\u2014 Montreal business monopolized attention at the meeting of the Railway Committee of the Privy Council this morning, the members of the committee present being Hon.A.G.Blair, Sir Henri Joly, Hon.R.R.Dobell.Mr.Collingwood Schreiber, Deputy Minister of Railways, was also in attendance.There were nine cases on the list, but of these, several were held over and others postponed.\"The application of the G.T.R.regarding the fixing of the additional expense at the crossings of \u2018the G.T.R.by the Montreal Strezt Railway was discussed.Most of the argument centered upon the application of the Montreal Island Belt Line Company for germission to cross the Montreal Street Railway on St.Catherine and Notre Dame streets, and the auplication of the same.company for cer tain modifications in the order for its crossing the Montreal Street Railway Company on Ontario street.| Mr.Brodeur, for the Street Railway Company, was ready to proceed, but Mr.Mullarkey asked for an adjournment on the ground that he would ®e at a serious disadvantage owing to the absence ot Mr.Greenshiclds.Mr.Brodeur explained that the Belt Line Company had, in 1897, secured an order for a crossing, fie order being the ordinary ona giving access to ihe Dominion Cotton Mills property.subsequent order had becn secured allowing them to use Davidson street.These orders had since been confirmed by the Exchequer Court.Permission had been granted by the city of Montreal for a freight line only, and the company asked that these conditions be enforced.Surely the committee would not .grant greater privileges than those granted by the city of Montreal, which included the use of a freight line and that to be used only at certain hours.Mr.Mullarkey, for the Belt Line, objected to a limitation against passenger traffic.The power from the committee had been confirmed by the ixch r Court.ng Mr.Blair read a resolution showing that the power only applied to the arrying of freight.¢ Mr, likey argued that this was a report of the Road Committee \u201cpassed, doubtless, by the Council.The city wos aware that the Belt Line Company had been making application for a line down Davidson street.The City Council has approved of the draft ordersr of the Railway Committee, and was not opposing the motion.\u2018The Strect Railway Company had no rights on the street, and had not included Davidson street in its schedule.By running merely a freight line down the street, the Belt Line would be Encurring damages which they would not by running a passenger traffic.The people in the district affedted wanted a passenger line.Mr.Whitehead, of the Dominion Cotton Mills\u2019 Company, stated that when he had applied to Mr.Mountain for a siding, the latter had told him that they would not run freight, and had added that he would allow no other line to cross his lines.The statement was emphatically denied by Mr.Mountain.Hon.Mr.Blair stated that whilst Mr.Greenshields might have been present, he thought the views of the city of Montreal should be definitely known before any action was taken.Mr.Brodeur still urged that the order be suspended, but Mr.Blair stated that the company would have a right to run, but the capacity was still open to question, and after consultation with the other members of the committee, it was decided to allow \u2018the matter to stand over until Friday next.ra Cotton Duties and Shirtmakers, For some time past several of the shirt manufacturers of the city have been dissatisfied with the import duties on cottons.At a recent meeting a deputation was appointed to visit Ottawa for the purpose of interviewing the Government in

Association on St, John St.Visited by the Police, THIRTY-FIVE MEN ARRESTED And They Were All Marched to the Police Station\u2014AIl Were Discharged, but nt ARE TO BE SUMMONED AGAIN.rms Chief Carpenter, of the city detective department, started the ball rolling yesterday afternoon in connection with the campaign now being carried on against gambling houses and lotteries by raiding the National Horse Assurance Association, 47 St.John street, on a charge ot being a common gaming house.The alleged principals, John Higgins and David Nicholson, and about thirty-five other persons were placed under arrest and marched off to the Central police station in charge of a posse of detectives under command of the Chief and Inspector Kehoe.Those arrested, besides \u2018the principals already mentioned, were :\u2014John Smith, 29, St.Lawrence Main; John Wilson, 27, At- water avenue; Henry Johnson, 24, Cadieux street; James Thompson, 27, St.James; Frank A.Brodie, 35, St.Lawrence; Daniel Corneil, 23, Seigneurs street; James Murphy, 39, Cadieux street; James Bell, 32, Wellington; Thomas Maguire, 32, Mec- Gill College; Patrick Callaghan, 31, Boyer; Joseph Lefebvre, 25, St.James; Jos.Ber- trend, 25, Quesnel; James Ross, 35, St.James; Jos.Lyon, 28, Green avenue; Henry Showles, 26, 373 Seigneurs; Alf.Le- roux, 42, Notre Dame street; Jos.Lafleur, 26, City; John Scott, 50, London House; Joseph Robert, 30 University; Arthur Blenires, 27 Chatham; William Sutherland, 27, Windsor; Henry Fray, 31, St.Antoine; Jerome Crowley, 38, St.Dominique; James Masters, 22, city; George Crossby, 23, St.Lawrence; John Gallagher, 27, city; Lockhart Thompson, 37, St.Charles Borrommee; Benjamin Vineberg, 30, Chenneville; John Dainbar, 40, St.James; John Henning, 45, St.James; Charles Stuart, 39, St.Catherine; F.H.Dayton, 36, Chenneville; Oscar R.Cooper, 45, Chenneville.Some of the names given above arebe- lieved to be bogus.The Raid.The raid was effected in a simple and quiet manner.Inspector Kehoe, Chief Carpenter, Sergt.Detective Campeanu anl as many of the local staff as it was pos sible to gather tegether, proceeded about 4.30 o'clock yesterday afternoois from the Central station to the premises on St.Johne street.Three men were sent ahead to open the way without raixing suspicion.and to keep a close watch on the cash drawers and ticket box.The men entered without ostentation and it was not still the Chief raised his voice tu announce the purpose of his visit that the crowd fully comprehended the situation.À desperate effort was then.made to escape by those whose fontune it- was to be near the door or stairway, but they had not counted on the Chief's foresight, and they found all exits closed.They were trapped, and knowing that discretion was the better part of valor, they decided to accompany the detectives quietly to the station.The Ccanplain.The\u2018 information on which the place was raided was laid by Secretary H .R.Collins, of the detective department, ant was based on section 204 of the statute.The complaint alleges that \u201cfor a month prior to the 28th day of April, 1899, John Higgins and David Nicholson did use and did knowingly allow the premises under their control, to wit, 47 St.John street, to be used for the purpose of recording and registering bets and wagers, and were enstodi- ans of monies wagered and pledged, and did record and register such bets and wagers upon the result of horse races.\u201d This morning the scene in the Pclice Court was most interesting.The prisoners were arraigned before Magistrate Lafontaine and all pleaded \u201cnot guilty.\u201d Evidently many of the prisoners gave fictitious names, for when called by them this morning they appeared to have forgotten them.Mr.Ernest Desrosierst represented the prosecution, and when the case was called requested one hour's time to prepare a warrant.: Mr.H.J.Cloran, for the*defencefi protested, that the court had no right to detain the prisoners for one minute, as there existed no charge, ne gaming had been going on at the time of the arrest, and, moreover, the houses, he contended, was not a gaming house.Magistrate T.a- fontaine said that a conflict existed between certain clauses of ithe statute regarding frequenters of gambling houses, and clause 199 did not cover the.offence charged.The defence contended that transactions in betting were permitted and authorized by clause 204.In view of this Mr.Lafontaine temporarily discharged all arrested on the charge of frequenting._All will be called as witnesses against the allegzd proprietors.It is barely possible that all may be summoned again on the charge of frequenting a gaming house.AN INSURANCE CASE.Court of Appeal Lays Down an Impor~ tant Doctrine in Gooley and Stan- stead Mutual.An interesting judgment was rerider- ed in the Court of Appeal yesterday in the case of the Stanstead Mutual Irsurance Company and Gooley, in whieh the appeal of the company was maintained, and the point decided that the person to whom an insurance policy is transferred has no rights other than those enjoyed by the person to whom the poilcy was originally issued.Mr.Gooley sold to Mrs.Bourque a hotel at Coaticook for $5,500, of which $4,000 was paid down and the balance out at interest.As an additional guarantee for this $1,500, Mrs.Bourque insured the property for $1,500 with the Stanstead Mutual, and transferred the policy to Mr.Gooley.The premiums, as is \u2018the custom with mutual insurance companies, were not paid in adyance.Subsequently the company ascertained facts which rendered Mrs.Bourque\u2019s pclicy null and void, and immediately notified her by registered letter of the fact.By a remarkable coincidence, 1m tin interval which elapsed between the posting of the letter and its delivery, the hotel was burned to the ground.Mr.Gooley claimed the amount of his | policy, and, the company failing to pay, ] eutered suit.\u2018The company pleaded that its letter, posted before the fire, carcelled the policy.The Superior Court rejected their plea, and the Court of Appeal yesterday upheld that decision.A second plea of the company, that the policy being null on account of certain disabilities on the part of the original assured, such nullity continued after its transfer, was also dismissed in the Superior Court, on the ground that the company\u2019s acceptance of the transfer made it a party to a direct contract with Mr.Gooley.The Court of Appeal, however, reversed this yiew and dismissed Mr.Gooley\u2019s action.This decision is in some respects contrary tc a precedent established in the case of Black and the National Assurance Company, by a judgment of the Court of Appeal some twenty years ago; but it should be borne in mind that that case had only been decided by a narrow majority of the \u2018Court of Queen\u2019s Bench, which had reversed the majority judgment of two inferior courts.Further, subsequent jurisprudence had been in favor of the view now taken.The court, in concluding, took occasion to pay a high compliment to Mr.Chas.M.Hen, of the Montreal bar, whose valuable work on insurance law had been consulted frequently, and with most satisfactory results in the consideration of the present case.\u2014 KAUTZ GETS OFF EASY.Simply Told Not to Write Any More Indiscreet Letters.Washington, D.C., April 27.\u2014lt has been fel proper to admonish Admiral Kautz to be more careful either in writing such, letters as that published yesterday from Cincinnati, or in guarding his letters from publicity, and a letted of that character was addressed to him yester- day.Philadelphia, Pa., April 27.\u2014An authentic statement was made this afternoon, after his arrival in the city, that President McKinley had no intention of removing Captain Coghlan from ithe command of the United States cruiser Raleigh.It was also learned: from the same authentic source that the admiration held by the President for Captain Coghlan\u2019s participation with Admiral Dewey, in the destruction of the Spanish fleet at Manila, completely overshadows any desire on his part \u2018to administer rebuke to the Raleigh\u2019s gallant commander for his German references.MUST SUE THE COMPANY.mes The Town of St.Louis Nat Responsible for the Failure of the Water Company to Supply a Citizen.The Court of Appeal yesterday confirmed the judgment of the Court of Review, dismissing the case of Wilshire vas.the town of iSt.Louis.Mr.Wilshire, florist, sought to have the corporation held responsible for the damage to his bus- ess resulting from the alleged \u2018failure of the Montreal Water and Power Company to fullill its contract in respect of supplying water to the citizens of St.Louis, not completing its waterworks within the stipulated time.The Superior Court found that the municipality was liable to Mr.Wilshire; but this judgment was reversed by the Court of Review, whose ruling was yesterday confirmed in appeal.The town corporation was not responsible for the Water and Power Company's carvy- ing out of its contract.That contract had been made with the consent of all the taxpayers, and the recourse of any taxpayer who considered himself damaged was against the company, not against the corporation., Blected Officers.The Men\u2019s Society of the Church of

terms of surrender.New York, April 28\u2014A Manila despatch to the Evening Journal says that General Luna, with a large force of insurgents and arms, has surrendered.Luna is the Filipino field commander.2 Fight in Open Ground.Manila, April 28.\u20148.20 a.m\u2014At Calum- pit for the first time a large body of Filipinos attempted to face the Americans in open ground.The Filipinos in the trenches were dispersed after making a ridiculously feeble resistance; but General Luna\u2019s brigade came upon the field from Macabeles on the double-quick, the two regiments ricans, from the south bank of the river, which is higher than the north bank, could sez General Luna, mounted on a black horse, galloping frantically along the lines, and apparently exhorting his followers to make a stand.Xe finally succeeded in getting them spread in an extended line of battle, which would have done credit to a civilized army.But when the American bullets showered thickly among them, stirring clouds ot dust from the sandy soil, the Filipinos again showed that no amount of drillinz could fortify them sufficiently to make them face the American rifles, and their train puffed up the track, with its load of dead and wounded, in plain sight of the Americans, who were entering the town so closely that the rebels barely slipped out of their victors\u2019 hand« The Montana regiment made a rush to capture the train, running up the track, yelling, shrilling and even dropping their guns in the pursuit, but the engine backed off hastily, leaving the bodies of six warriors to their enemies.Twenty Filipinos who came to meet the conquerors bearing a white flag declared heartily that they were sick of fighting, adding that food was very short in their camps.They ate the army rations given to them with an eagerness that testified to the truth of the latter statement.Gne who had been severely wounded dragged himself after his comrades, showing remarkable nerve.Hostilities Suspended, Washington, D.C., April 28.\u2014General Otis telegraphs the war department this morning that the commanding general of the insurgents has received from the insurgent Government directions to suspend hostilities pending negotiations for the termination of the war, and that insurgent staff officers are now on the way to Manila for that purpose.General Otis\u2019 despatch also says :\u2014 \u201cAfter taking Calumpit MacArthur's di vision crossed the Rio Grande river in the face of great obstacles, driving the concentrated forces of the enemy back on the railroad two miles.MacArthur reports that the passage of the river was a remarkable military achievement, the success of which is due to daring, skill and determination of Colonel Funston, under discriminating control of General Wheaion.Casualties light; number not yet ascer- taired.0-000-000-0000 0000 STEAMSHIP NEWS.: + +-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-++-0-0-4-4-0-0-0-0-0 Sailing Dates of Steamers.Pennsylvania, from

Path Quarter of a Mile Wide Was Cut Clear by the Wind, \u2014\u2014\u2014t} St.Louis, Mo., April 27.\u2014A special to the Globe-Democrat from Kirksville, Mo., says :\u2014 A gathering storm that had been threatening all afternoon, broke upon Kirks- ville at 6.20 o'clock to-night in all the fury oi a cyclone.A path a quarter of a mile wide, and as clean as the prairie was swept through the eastern portion of the city, and four hundred buildings, homes and mercantile, were levelled to the ground in scattered ruins.In the heavy rain that followed, the people who had escaped turned out to rescue the injured.For two hours not much was accomplished, as all was confusion, but by eight o\u2019clock twenty-eight dead bcdies had been taken from the ruins.it is confidently expected that the list of dead will reach between fifty and sixty, it it does not exceed that.Almost a thousand people were more or less injured.Daylight will be necessary before an adequate estimate of the loss of life and property can be had.The list of killed so far as known is as follows :\u2014William B.Hcwell, Mrs, W.H.Sherbourne, James Weaver, sr., Theodore Brigham, Ed.Bee- man, Mrs.W.W.Green and daughter, Miss Bessie; Mrs.Henry Billington, Mr.A.W.Glaze, Mrs.À.W.Glaze, Mrs.Ben.Green, Mrs.John Larkin, sr., Mrs, T.Mahaffey, Mrs.C.Woods, Mr.A.Little, Mrs.A.Little, Joe Woods, Mrs.Joe.Woods, A.W.Rainschott, Mrs.A.W.Rainschott, Mr.C.A.Gibbs, Mrs.C.A.Gibbs, A.C.Beal, James Cunningham, Mrs.Mitchell.Intense darkness prevailed after the cyclone and the rescuers were at a disadvantage for a short time until fire broke out in a dozen places in the ruins and shed light over the scene.No attempt was made to extinguish the fires, partly because the rescuers had no time and partly because of the need of light.On both sides of the storm\u2019s path the debris was piled high and burned fiercely.In all prcbability a number of bodies have been incinerated.The storm first struck the eastern portion of the city near that part occupied by the boarding houses of the students of the American School of Ooes- toepathy, State Normal School and Mc- Ward\u2019s Seminary.It was just supper time for the students, and it is thought very probable the list of dead will be well filled with students, as a large number of these boarding-houses were demolished.As far as known to-night, these three institutions of learning escaped the storm.The storm then went north-west and wiped out Patterson\u2019s Nursery, pulling the trees out of the ground and hurling them through the city.A second section of the cyclone followed the first, twenty minutes later.It came as an inky black cloud widely distributed and covered the whole town, but passed above the houses, doing no material damage.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 ! ST.LAWRENCE ROUTE.Western Shippers Are Being Urged to Join in Appeal to the Government.Stratford, Ont., April 27.\u2014Mr.Burnet, Who is associated with Col.Bond, the well-known marine insurance broker, of Montreal, was in the city Tuesday urging shippers to use their influence with tne Government to obtain needed improvements to the St.Lawrence route.The new insurance schedule, which has come into effect, is double that of former years, and unless something is speedily done to make the route safer, ocean traflic will be diverted to American tports.What .s needcd is a wider channel through Lake St.Peter and a new survey of the guif and more lighthouses there.losses, both in the river and gulf during the last few years have led the insurance companies to make this increase in the rates.Mr.Burnet discussed the matter very fully with Hon, \u2018Thomas Ballantype and his firm, with other shippars in the city, and some steps will likely be taken towards bringing the matter before the attention of the Government.ges John Magor\u2019s Will.The will of the late Mr.John Magor has been filed.He leaves his property and his business to his widow and children.He makes a cordial mention of his confidential employee, Mr.\u2018\u201cWillie\u201d Wilton, whom he recommends to the care and respect of his sons.t e- A Treasure for All.BROMA, a scientific preparation, a powerful and unrivalled tonic, is wuccessfully used by convalescents, persons recovering from illness and exhausted from any cause whatever.BROMA is an inexhaustible treasure, a fountain of gold from which springs health, joy and wealth.Try it;

he is a serious man, who has made his way by his own labor, whom we could not recommend too highly to the aldermen.He las a good knowledge of the Water Department, having assisted Mr.Laforest on many occasions, and he has every qualification for the office.Mr.Be- anger is a member of the Society of Engineers of France; he is a French-Canadian who has brought honor to his profession, and has more title than Mr.Janin to the patronage of Council on this occasion.Already Mr.Janin has had his share of the municipal plum : a contract of $30,000 for the sewage farm.\u201cLa Patrie, without detracting from the merits of Mr.Janin, is happy to support the candidature of Mr.Belanger.whom we strongly recommend to Council.\u201d \u2014_\u2014l Organist Broome's Success.The results of the examinations for the degree of Bachelor of Music, held ! in Trinity University, Toronto, during Easter week, have been announced.Mr.Edward Broome, the organist of the American Presbyterian Church, Montreal, took first place in the honor list for his first and second exams in 7 and 98, and his final on April 5th, 6th and 7th is again at the head of the honors list, and further has won the gola medal awarded annually on the Special recommendation of the exam- tners to the candidate who has taken three exams within five vears and is first in the honors list.\\ \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 Business Notes.Partnerships have been registered by Pierre Gravel and J.G.Duhamel, im- berters of carriage supplies, saddlerny, ete.(Gravel & Duhamel);

Carry Mr.Hogan's Case There.The city attorneys have decided to advise the taking of the case of the city and Mr.Henry Hogan to the Privy Council.Yesterday, it will be remembered, the Court of Appeal, Judges Ouimet and Hall dissenting, decided that the city was liable for the value of the property on Notre Dame street east, ceded in 1894 by Mr.Hogan, who moved his fence back to the homolo- gated

Removed From a Fur niture Factory.Judge Charland rendered an important decision this morning in the case of F.X.\u2018Craig versus Alexander Walker, in a case involving the property classification of machinery in a building.Mr.Walker, doing business alone as James Thompson & Co., furniture manufacturers, occupied a three- storey building in St.Antoine Ward, and, being at the time proprietor, installed a quantity of machinery, boilers, etc.Mr.Craig subsequently be- ceming owner of the property, Mr.Walker, in due course, left the premises, taking with him the machinery, boilers, etec., which he had installed.Mr.Craig thereupon took action to have Mr.Walker ordered to return that machinery, etc., on the ground that it fcrmed part of the realty.This action was maintained by Mr.Justice Char- land.The machinery, etc., were immovable by destination, and had been placed in the building for the purposes of the operation of a furniture factory.The boilers and engines were in the factory fixed on foundations secured to the establishment, and were incorporated in and formed part of the building.Mr.Walker was therefore ordered to restore the machinery, or its value, some $1,900.e Madame

BY A STREET CA Went Out Riding on His Bicycle on St, Catherine Street and Met Death, [ES BODY WAS BADLY MANGLED press The Body Was Identified by Some Visiting Cards Found on It, ot THE WEDDING DAY WAS SET.Pedestrians on St.Catherine Street West, about 7.45 last evening, wintessed a terrible accident, by which Mr.Fred.T.Sly, butcher, of 2745 St.Qatherine Street, lost his life.Mr.Sly had just closed his store, and was out taking a spin on his bicycle.He had just turned on to St.Catherine Street, from Mountain \u2018Street, to go west.When he got on to the busier thoroughfare, he found himself in the midst of vehicles, with a street car approaching.He could not extricat® himself, and was struck by the car.An eyewitness says that after Mr.Sly had left Mountain Street, he proceeded along the left side of St.Clathenine Street, going west.It was mot the side he should have taken, but it had been impossible for him to take the right side, as there were too many nigs there.Mr.Sly tried to oross the erack just when a street car was approaching.He noticed it, however, and it appeared as if he attempted to turn back to allow.the car to pass him, but just then the bicycle slippeaq, and Mr.Sly fell on the track in front of the car, which passed right over his body.The unfortunate man was terribly mutilated.The car was No.268, in charge of Motormon A.Simard and Conductor A.Varue, who will tell what they know of the sad affair at thc Inquest this afternoon at the morgue.Mr.Sly was not married, but his marriage to an estimable young lady had been set for next month.He had no relatives in the city.On aocount of the terrible mutilation, it Was impossible for a time to identify the deceased, but fortunately the victim Had his visiting cards, which enable his friends to claim the body.Strange to state, the wheel and hat of the deceased were uninjured.Both of these articles were conveyed to the Sireet Railway shops at Hochelaga.\u2014\u2014\u2014 me ee THE NEWMARKET

the Courts.A Deputy Returning Officer Tells How Empey is Supposed to Have Tried to Trick Him, Brockville, April 28.\u2014Special.)\u2014Since the committal yesterday of (fordon ¥m- ey to stand his trial at the fall assizes or irregularities in connection with a ballot paper at the election of the 20th inst., there have been no new developments.The principal witness against Empey was I.W.Fulford, who acted as deputy returning officer at polling sub-division No.3 in the West Ward.He stated that Mr.Em- pey presented himself at that polling place on the day of the election, and was given a ballot in the regular manner, after which he proceeded into the compartment arranged for voters to mark their ballots, where he remasied a short time, and then returned and tendered a paper other than the one which the witness had given him, and which did not have the number or the initials of the deputy returning officer placed thereon.W.B.Carroll, of Gananoque, was called, and said he was an agent for Hon.Peter White on April 20th at the polling place mentioned by the previous witness.He heard the evidence of Mr.Fulford, and corroborated it in substance.Empey is out on $600 bail.his bondsmen being Jas.H.Gilmour and Geo.E.Smart.The case against Antoine Wendling, charged with illegally giving a ballot to a man named Alexander McIntosh will come up for hearing on Monday.ee DON'T DUMP INTO LANES.It Is a Punishable Offence\u2014The City Will Clean Lanes After Moving Week.Sanitary Engineer Dore promises to give the lanes of the city a thorough cleaning as soon as \u2018\u2018moving week\u201d is over.Complaints are being made that the lanes are not being attended to with promptness, but Mr.Dore says that he cannot do much until! the mowing season iz past.Lanes cleared before that time are almost certain to be filled with rubbish from the houses being vacated, and the department cannot afford to clean them twide in one month.; The havbor is now being used as a dump.which will mean quite a saving on the weekly pay list.Mr.Dore says that it 1s his intention to enforce the law against dumping rubbish into the lanes -aîter they have been clcared.The pras- tice is indulged in by many citizens who probably are unaware that it is a punishable offence.F)J R BURGLARIES Took Place at Point St.Charles in One Night\u2014Need for the Police.Mr.D.Small, one of

the store, and escaped with all the change in the till.There were three similar burglaries the same night at Point St.Charles, which makes it evident that a little more activity on the part of the

Up.\u2014\u2014\u2014 CLASS '99 PLANTS A TREE.\u2014\u2014\u2014 Revised Results of Arts Examinations Announced To-day at the University.\u2014 CLASS 99 HOLDS ITS BANQUET.\u2014\u2014 With the exercises of convocation at the Windsor Hall this afternoon, the curtain falls upon \u201899 so far as McGill is concerned.McGill, it is true, after its dignified and peposeful summer, will burst into fresh activity in September next; but that will mark the beginning of the year 1900.This afternoon's ceremony is the greatest academic function of the year.The spoils of an honorable and arduous fight will be distributed, and the distribution will be accompanied by copious draughts from the fountain of wisdom.It will be in very marked contrast to the less serious, but, not less formal, ceremonies of yesterday afternoon.Class 99 continued again the making of history at- ter their peculiar fashion.They had possession of the field\u2014campus, hall and all\u2014 and they kept it.In other days, the grad- vating class were allowed to share in the convocation\u2019 proceedings, which then changed from grave to gay\u2014from light to serious, by turns, but now the more solemn function ts kept severely so\u2018emn, and the lighter spirits are allowed the preceding days in which to indulge their humors and freaks.As the firdt item in vesterday\u2019s programme, there cae the planting of \u201999 class tree.It was a sturdy young maple of several years\u2019 growth, and the site chosen for its expansion was the grassy lawn in front and slightly to the right of the Physics building.A few feet distant from it was the \"98 tree\u2014a slender sapling it is too; but it has firmly taken root, and that as regards the '99 tree is vet problematical, of course.The tree was, however, declared to be well arg truly planted by Mr.W.C.Ives, who performed the ceremony in the presence of some 500 ladies and gentlemen.The tree oration was delivered by Mr.W.B.Heeney, Arts, and a very eloquent performance it was, bright, piquant and inspiring, full of hope for the future, and contentment as regards fhe past.The assemblage after this retired to the Molson Hall, where the proceedings were continued, The dlasz propheey here was read by Mr.W.Ball, of Law, who, in the poem of a vision, declared for Irimself and class-mates, a future, in which some characteristic feature of each was amusingly set off.The class poem was read by Miss L.E.Potter, the gifted lady graduate, who has edited the MoGill Outlook during the past term.Tt was a clever piece of descriptive versification, in which she told how it had fared with her and her class of tai r Donaldas since\u2019 1895, when first they i oP the hin to Old McGill,\u201d until now, when they\" \u20ac in starting | y were on the point of \u201cDown the hill from Old McGill.\u201d couple of songs were sung TES Sung during the afternéon by Mr.P Graduates Dinner.Last night the graduatin class it, Ar of MeGill University held their last Te ner in the Carslake Hotel.All of the graduating class were present with the exception of two who were unavoidably detained by illness.The dinner table was beautifully decorated with flowers and the dining hall presented a beautiful appearance.At half past eight o'clock the boys sat down and partook of a sumptuous re- Past, during all the time chatting and jov- tality was the order., loasting began at 10.30.Mr.Lemuel Robertson occupied the chair and proposed the toast to the Queen in a manner such as only Mr.Robertson can.At the end of this toast from 30 voices, strong and clear, rang out the National Anthem.Lhen the toast to Canada was eloquently and forcibly put by Mr.Walter Brown, 99, followed by a toast to our Alma Mater by I.S.Patch, 99.At this stage of the proceedings Mr.Holland favored the boys with a song and responded to an encore.Then the Principal and Professors were toasted by J.B.McLeod and responded to by W.G.Cumming and K.H.White, all of which took their part in a manner worthy of McGill and of the class of 99.Next followed the toast to the undergraduates which was proposed in an eloquent speech by Mr.J.Greig and responded to at length by their esteemed classmates, Messrs.Bertram McKenzie and Lorne Gardner.Mr.Arnold Wainwright here favored the boys with a selection on the pianoforte and the halls of the Carslake resounded with college and patriotic songs of this jovial crowd.Again the list was taken up and the toast to the ladies proposed in a able and eloquent manner by Mr.Lundie, °99 and responded to by Mr.1\".B.Holland.The toast to the theologs\u2019 was proposed by Mr.Laurie, who distinguished himself upon this occasion, by his wit, and won for himself a name which is the envy of all the members of the year.The toast was ably responded to by Mr.Horace Rice and our worthy valedictorian, Mr.H.J.Keith, Here a little interruption ensued during which time any business connected with the class of \u201999 was discharged and the minute books closed.One feature of the evening was the formation of an Alumni Society composed of the graduates of \u201999.\u2018he officers for the ensuing year were elected.The election resulted as follows: President, A.Wainwright, vice-president, W.Brown, secretary-treasurer, E.Laurie.The toast to the class of ?99 was proposed by Mr.W.B.Heeney in a lengthy and eloquent manner and was responded to by Messrs.Q.A.Munro and Chas.Cotton, A toast to the committee to which J.R.Goodall responded brought the arening\u2019s enjoyment to an end.MORE RESULTS IN ARTS, The following are

Forward\u2014The Driver Will be Prosecuted.\u2014 MONTREAL STICK-HANDLERS The Three Rivers Cyclists Have Successfully Organized a Strong Club, permet A NOVEL SIX-DAY RACE.cf The district C.W.A.officials are quite active in the case of the accident to Thomas McGourley on Sunday last on the Lachine road.Enquiries have been made through Chief Consul Harries, and the district is ready to push the case before the eourts and have the drivers, if they were at fault, brought to justice.A letter has appeared in an evening paper stating that the drivers of the rig which rode McGourley down were known to the wrii- er.If the writer and his friends who saw the accident will communicate with Chief Consul Harries at the Columbia Bicycle Agency, St.Catherine street, and give him what information they possess, the district will be in a position to force the driver to make good the damage.It is easy enough to say, \u201cLet the district act,\u201d but if those who saw the accident do not come forward with their side of the story, how can the council do anything?THREE RIVERS ORGANIATION.Three Rivers, April 27.\u2014(Special.)\u2014Tri- fluvians are busy organizing a branch of

Races.\u2014\u2014 ne.New York, April 27\u2014There will be a six day bicycle race in Madison Square Garden in the fall or winter, despite the Collins law against six day contests in New York State.This announcement was made yesterday by a race promoter who was a member of the American Cycle Racing Association of last year.The next contest, however, will be on a strictly new plan, the one now favored being an intercity relay team race.The plan as proposed is to invite prominent long distance riders of several cities to select each a team mate for himself from his own city.Each pair will divide the six days into relays in such a manner that no one competitor will ride longer than twelve hours in any twenty-four hours.One will take up the score where the other leaves off, and the winning team will diwide first money between them.\u2018Teams that have been suggested for such a contest are Miller and Schinneer and Lawson brothes, Chicago; Turville brothers, Philadelphia; Stevens and New- house, Buffalo; Barnaby and Waller, Boston; Walthour.and Chapman, Atlanta; Simms brothers, Washington; Julius and Aaronson, Sweden, and Hale and Nawn, Ireland.The race, if arranged, it is believed, will prove more interesting and exciting than a continuous six-day grind.WILL SEND ANOTHER LETTER.Toronto, April 28.~Hal B., Donly, secretary of the C.W.A., was m town yesterday, and at a short informal conference with C.W.A.leaders in the city, decided to write a letter to Secretary Porter, of the Boston Meeg Club, explaining the position of the C.W.A.in the present fight between the L.A.W.and N.C.A.A NEW TIRE.\u201cSince the pneumatic was invented (or Teinvented) by Mr.J.B.Dünlop many hundreds, perhaps thousands, of patents have been taken out for improved forms of tyres.Of these only about a dozen have survived, of which but two or three are unwersally known.It is, therefore, with some scepticism that one hears of a new invention which is to \u2018revelutionize the trade\u2019 \u2014a phrase which at one period of the boom became stereotyped.Yet, if rumor does not lie, the latest thing in tyres is something sensational.It is a cover over an inner air-tube, but, unlike the Dunlop and the Clincher, it is not held on the rim by wires or beaded edges.The fabric is made in some peculiar way, so that when the inner air-tube is inflated the cover grips on the rim by contractile force.A powerful syndicate of fourteen very wealthy men has been formed to exploit the new tyre, and the Dunlop will presently have to contend against a fresh rival for popular favor.As to the price, nothing is yet settled, but it will probably be lower than that charged for the present makes.\u201d\u2014London \u2018Daily Mail, rt CRICKET.THE POINT CLUB, The first committee meeting of the Point St.Charles Cricket Club was held last night at the P.A.A.A., when Mr.P.Smith, the vice-president, presided, in the absence of the president, who dropped in just as the meeting closed.The secretary reported that the application for affiliation with the P.A.A.AÂ., had been favorably received.Various matters were discussed, and the secretary reported that a constitution and by-laws would be presented for adoption at the next meeting, when the various committees would be elected.1t was decider 1 \u201cBLANCO.\u201d To the Trade, We are prepared to supply the trade with Pickering\u2019s

Co.General Outfitters, 455 St.Paul St, ed to hawe a fixture card, and a committee was appointed to attend to the laying of a new cricket crease at Queen\u2019s Park, which consists of the following: Messrs.W.H.Fenn, president; 8S.Windsor, EKE.Fox and W.Eddison.Mr.P.Smith, secretary of the old \u2018Point\u2019 Club, handed over the books and cash in hand, intimating that at a recent meeting of the old club it was decided to hand everything over to the affiliated club on the condition that the new club would pay off all liabilities.\u2018This was considered very satisfactory, as the liabilities only amount to fifteen dollars, as against sixty dollars worth of cricket material.\u2018The secretary was instructed to communicate with the following clubs with a view to arranging fixtures: ici, Montreal, Westmount, Bishop\u2019s College, St.John\u2019s Old School, Sherbrooke, St.Johns, Que., Lachine, Cowansville.From present indications there is every prospect of a successful season, as there will be plenty of new players.All members of the P.A.À.A.who intend playing cricket this season are requested to register their names with the secretary.Only those registered will be allowed to practice, and are eligible for matches.\u2018ihe secretary will be at the Association Building next Wednesday night from 8 o\u2019clock to 10 o\u2019clock for this purpose, New members, who are not connected with the P.A.A.A., are invited to become members, and interest themselves in the game of cricket.THE COTE ST.ANTOINE CLUB.The annual meeting of the Cote.St.Antoine Lawn Tennis Club took place on Wednesday night, April 26th, in the Heather Curling Club rooms, Kensington avenue, Westmount, and was well attended by members.It was shown by the secretary and treasurer\u2019s report that the season 1898 was a very successful one.The club has not only won the city championship, but also that of an outside league cemposed of Ottawa, Montreal and Cote clubs.Some of the matches were very close, the Cote men just winning by a peint or two.One reason why the players in Westmount show to such good advantage, is that the grounds are always in grand condition, and reflect great credit on Pitman, the groundsman.By winning the city championship, the Cote Club be- ccmes first holders of a very handsome silver cup, subscribed for by the different clubs in the league.The cup has to be won twice before becoming the absolute property of any one club.The secretary referred to the two new clay courts, which had been built last fall by special subscription.Before the usual playing season, and after the grass courts close, only those who contributed to the fund would be entitled to play on them.The courts are laid on club grounds just behind the club house, so that during the usual season they will be thrown open to all members alike, as there is still some expense in connection with the same, such a3 nets, poles, ete., the committee would like a few more men to subscribe, and so help things along generally, and also to get more practice themselves.The courts will be ready for play in a week or ten days, and will continue open until the frost comes.This year the club will be able to accommodate a great many more members, as they will not only have seven courts, but they are enlarging the club house, so everything points toward a banner year for the coming season.The election of officers resulted as follows 1\u2014 Hon.president\u2014Mr.Wm.M.Knowles.President\u2014Mr.Graham C.Dunlop.Vice-president\u2014Dr.Howard

Will Have to Choose His Team From.Lacrosse is just beginning to boom.Yesterday the name of some of the old Shamrocks who will be in harness again were published.They begin work on Saturday.The Montreal club also begins practice on Saturday.This club, champions of the Interprovincial League, should certainly show up well this season.Last year\u2019s team will, it is expected, be out to à mim again, and judging from the names of soine of the old players who have signified their intention of trying their hand at the game, there will be no end of talent to select from.Below is a list of players who will be seen on the field: Last year\u2019s team\u2014DPierce, Murphy, Taylor, Haynes, Williams, MacKerrow, Christmas, Porteous, Christmas, Irvine, Patchie, Robertson.Some old players will also be out,such as: A.Hamilton, J.Scott, W.Reid, Dr.Craig, and such likely men as Davidson, Cooke, Lunan, Brown, Morrisette.THE SHERBROOKE CLUB.Sherbrooke, April 27.\u2014At a meeting ot the Sherbrooke Lacrosse Club last evening, Mr.T.J.Maguire was appointed captain and D.McAllister assistant cap- tatn.Mr.Maguire has captained the team for a number of years past, and will, ne dcubt, handle the seniors with the same skill that brought about premier honors to the intermediates last year.The club has been practising in the drill-shed thi% week, but if the weather keeps dry they expect to be out on their own grounds next week.The team will be practically the same as last year, with the exception of Dade and Finlayson.The bcys have begun the season\u2019s work with the determination to give a good account of themselves.THE INTERMEDIATE LEAGUE.A meeting of the Intermediate League was held on Wednesday, April 26th, at Meunier\u2019s Hotel.The St.Ann\u2019s Lacrosse Club being represented, their delegates were given until Tuesday, May 2nd, to decide whether they would enter the Intermediate League or not.At a special meeting of St.Ann\u2019s Lacrosse Club, held in their rooms, 157 Ottawa street, on Thursday, April 27th, it was decided that they would not form part of the Intermediate League this season.PROPOSED NEW LEAGUE.Kingston, Ont.April 28.\u2014Word

the budget for 1898-99.Street Gossip Yesterday\u2019s bull movement on the Street Railway shares was obviously based on the earnings, although Toronto is by no means making the excellent showing that Montreal is.This may possibly be due to the bicycle.Anyway, it is significant that the T'oronto earnings for the past couple of weeks or more have not gcne very far over the $3,000 mark daily, whereas Montreal, on the other hand, has been running steadily in the vicinity of $+.400.Most peaple have got their bicycles out by this time, but it was pretty well established last summer that the silent steed will not be much of a factor with the local road.The hills of the city, for one thing, prevent a great many people riding their wheels to business, and for the same reason it is pretty well understood that the wheel will never be as pcpular in Montreal as in Toronto.* * * Speaking of big earnings here it is pointed out that Brooklyn Rapid Transit earnings are said to be increasing at the rate of $4,000 a day.The buying of Brooklyn Rapid Transit has been largely by Flower & Co., while other inside interests are also talking in a more bullish way about the immediate movement in the stock.It is officially stated that Brooklyn Rapid Transit will begin to run trains with electricity on the Brooklyn Elevated about June 1st.* * * a There is no change in the local money market, and the rate on call loans is still 5 per cent.Sales of Anaconda in Wall street yesterday amounted to 43,130 shares; Canadian Pacific, 1,045 shares, and Twin City, 400 shares.x sox The shipping men around the Board ot Trade say there is a good deal more doing in grain freights just now, and rates are somewhat more__ satisfactory than they were some time ago.* * * It would seem as if the listing on a mining stock on the Exchange here was the inevitaible signal for a boom.Republic is the latest.For some time past it has not been fluctuating very rapidly, but in a little while yesterday it was rushed up 5 points.* * Merchants on the Board of Trade say general business is excellent, and in most lines considerably ahead of a year ago.And a notable feature is the general tendency towards higher prices.Iron values have advanced again, cordage has advanec- ed, cottons are firm and there have been several advances in the leading grocery lines.together the outlook is a bright one, and with the opening of navigation at hand there ought to be a still further expansion.* .\u2014 MONTREAL CLEARINGS.Nearly $15,000.000, Against $18,500,000 the Same Week Last Year.The clearings last week

prices here have undergone a further advance.Among the notable changes lately has been the rise in iron pipe, both black and galvanized.\"lhe former is 1l0c per 100 feet higher, and the advance in galvanized is even more acute, ranging from 30e to considerably over yl per 100 feet, according to the size of the pipe.The new scale is as follows: Black pipe, 1-5 to 3-8 inch, $2.98; 1-2 inch, $2.75; 3-4 inch, $3.30; 1 inch, $4.50; 1 14 inch, $6; 1 1-2 inch, $7.50; 2 inch, $9.50; galvanized, 1-8 to 3-8 inch, $5.64; 1-2 inch, $6.64; 3-4 inch, $7.41; 1 inch, $10.12; 1 1-4 inch, $14.03; 1 1-2

in the Victory-Triumph Mine Will be Resumed Shortly.fasta MR.MEREDITH'S ANSWER To * Investor,\u201d Who Complained of the Commissions Charged by Montreal Brokers, J REPORT ON REPUBLIC MINE.\u2014go@-\u2014\u2014 (Special to The Herald From John B.Kerr, Editor of the Rossland Miner.) Rossland, April 28.\u2014A general meeting of the stockholders of the White Dear the majority of the shares in which are held by Toronto people, will take place on 'l'uesday in Spokane to make the transfer of the property to the new company.It\u2019is understood that operations on a considerably increased scale will be begun about May 15th.The details in the transfer of the Victory Triumph group to the Trail Creek Mines (Ltd.), of London, Eng., are being put through and operations on the mine will be resumed soon.\u2014 - John B.Kerr.Mr.Meredith\u2019s Reply.Mr.Robert Meredith, the well-known Montreal broker, has written the following reply to the remarks of \u2018Investor\u2019 re Montreal brokers\u2019 commissions.He says: Sir,\u2014d notice a letter in your issue of yesterday, signed \u2018\u2018Investor\u201d regarding commissions charged on mining stocks.It is a pity your correspondent did not make himself acquainted with the commssions charged before he rushed into print.If he had made an inquiry from any member of the board of the Mining Exchange he would not have committed such a blunder.Yours truly, Robert Meredith.Star vs.lron Mask.Rossland, B.C., April 27 \u2014Clarence King, the famous mining expert, who is the star witness for Centre Star in the suit against the Iron Mask owners, has completed his evidence.His deduction from his investigations is that the wein in dispute comes to the surface within Centre Star lines, and carries ore continuously into the Iron Mask.Counsel for the latter will begin the cross-examination of King to-morrow.The case will probably last for three weeks.Clark on the Republic.Mr.Patrick Clark has addressed the following interesting letter on the Republic mine to Clarence J.MecCuaig: : \u201cIn reply to your questions about the Republic Gold Mining and Milling Company, which owns the Republic, Great Hope, and Portland, and full claims, and several fractions, mill sites, etc.\u201cOwing to the very cold weather prevailing at Republic, our mill did not run regularly during January and most of February; but the cold weather is now over in our district, and the mill has bes=n running at full capacity since about the 20th of February.\u201cI'he first work done on the Republic was in May, 1897, since:which time we have developed the present ore chute to a depth- of 400 feet, built our mill and flumes, installed compressor, electric plants etc., purchased several other claims and fractions, all of which have been paid for out of the profits of the mine, in addition to the sum of $120,000 paid in dividends.\u2018This profit was realized, although on a large portion of the ore the cost of transportation and treatment was excessive.\u201cSince the completion of our mill we have becn able to treat ou?ore at a very great reduction.\u201clI am assured that a railroad will be built to our camp this year, which will make a great saving in the cost of mining and milling, making profitable ore that is now worthless, as well as adding so much more to the value of the pay ore in sight at the present time.It will be, in fact, the history of Rossland, B.C., re- pcated in this important respect.\u201cIn relation to the ore in sight: It is not less than 30,000 tons.We have milled and shipped 4,000 \u2018tons, for which we received $100 per ton, after paying all expenses of milling and smelting, as well as railroad freight.As this amount was mostly taken out of the development work throughout the ore chute, from the surface down to the 400-foot level, it should be considered a fair sample of the whole; but to be conservative, we will call it $60 ore, making $1,800,000 net in sight above the 400-foot level, and as there 13 at least 1,000 feet of the mine along the vein ta- taily undeveloped, much more will undoubtedly be found.\u201cThere are at the present time about 3,000 tons of ore on the dump, worth about $160,000, all taken out in the process of development work mentioned above, which, owing to the distance from the railroad, 80 miles, and scarcity of teams, we have been unable to ship, and our mill is too -small to handle all the output.\u201cThe company will commence the payment of regular monthly dividends, at the mate of $30,000 per month, beginning Avril 15 next; this can be paid indefinitely, besides accumulating a surplus.\u201d The Gertrude.\u201c The engineer in charge of the Gertrude mine, Rossland, owned by the Montrea: Goid Fields, Lümited, weports that there is considerable mixed ore showing in the bottom of the shaft, which ds now 175 fcet deep.When the 200 foot level is reached, about the middle of May, the vein will be cross-cut and drifts started east and west.Interesting developments may then be expected.The Alice Company.A broker received the falowing telegram from West Superior, Wis., yesterday: \u201cAdvices received from London.Big mill assured for Alice A.Advice stockholders.«.H.Hillyer, vice-president.\u201d The Alice company is capitalized at $1, 500,000.There has becn no stock placed on the market since the allotment of the first block of 500,000 shares at 25c.A London, Eng., firm holds an option on 100,000 shares at 50c, and this has been accepted.; The \u2018Copper Combine.New York, April 27.\u2014The Amalgamated Copper Company, a combine of a number of the principal copper

Field This Year.\u2014\u2014 tre ther storm is brewing around the pad of Superintendent McGibbon, of Mount Royal Park.À year ago he narrowly escaped dismissal, as a result of an investigation, held into his administration of the Park affairs.At a meeting of the \u2018Parks and Ferries Committee yesterday, strong words were used in reference to bis conduct towards some oi the employes at the Park.The attack was led by Ald.Clearihue, who produced a letter written by Mr.MeGibbon to Mr.Perrin, one of the Park gardeners.À statement of his reasons for writing the letter and an explanation of his conduct will be required from Mr.McGibbon at the next meeting of the comunittee.| Ald.Ames, chairman of the committee, presented a statement, showing how he proposed to expend the money at the committee\u2019s disposal this year.His plan provided for the appointment of three men, Messrs.Perrin, McNulty and Sylvestre, to do the work on Fletcher\u2019s Field, under the supervision of a foreman to be engaged by the committee.Ald.Clearihue, Larue and Ouimet objected to the arrangement, and insisted upon the appointment of Mr.Perrinn as foreman, | Ald.Ames was opposed to the appoint ment of Mr.Perrin as foreman for two reasons.In the first place, Mr.Perr.n and Mr.MeGibbon could not work well together, and, secondly, Mr.Perrin could exercise no control over the other men.Ald.Clearihue replied that Superintendent MieGibbon\u2019s brutality to the men under him should not be permitted to influence the aldermen against the men.He read to the committee a letter written by Mr.McGibbon to Mr.Perrin, reprimanding him for alleged negligence, and threatening him that his pay would be held back @ be did not give a satisfactory statement of his work during March.Ald.Clearihue said that such a letter should never have been written by the superintendent of a civic department.It was cruel and abusive.Mr.MeGibbon\u2019s staif wera men and should be respected, instead of being insulted in that brutal manner.Ald.Lareau also defnded Mr.Perrin, and suggested that Mr.McGibbon\u2019s enmity towards Mr.Perrin might be due to the fact that Mr.Perrin gave important testimony at the investigations held in the fall of 1897.The committee unanimously resolved to demand of Mr.McGibbon an explanation of the letter.The work on Fletcher's Field will be done by the three men named, under the supervision of Mr.MaGibbon, who will receive instructions to visit\u2019 the place, at least once a day, and to treat the men under him in a more humane manner.The sub-committees were altered and appointed as follows: For Mount Royal Park\u2014Ald.Clearibue, Lareau and Ouimet.For St.Helen\u2019s Island\u2014Ald.Gagnon, Laporte and Stevenson.or Fletcher's Field\u2014Ald.Clearihue and Ouimet.Chairmen Ames is ex-officio member ot each of these sub-committees.The Exposition Company's lease of the city\u2019s grounds on the south of Mount Royal avenue expires on May 1, next, and Mr.Arth.Delisle, advocate, wrote the committee that he had been directed by the Provincial Minister of Agriculture to make certain suggestions as to the Government\u2019s intentions in the matter.Owing to a misunderstanding, Mr.Delisle was not beard by the meeting yesterday afternoon.The Victomia Rifles applied for the Jo- cation of the grounds during the camping season, from May 27 to June 2, and the Crescent Baseball Club wrote asking to use them as a ball field during the season.It was decided to inform the company that the Exposition grounds must be clear of houses, etc., by the 1st of May.\u2014\u2014 ep \u2014_\u2014 a Painters to Organize.There will be a grand organization meeting of the painters of the city and vicinity on Sunday at 3

1898 states that frbm the profits of the year the directors have paid the interest on the debentures, preference and preference shares, and a_bonus, which, with the dividends previously paid, made the average payment of the ordinary shares, from the inception of the company to December 3lst, 1897, equal to 11 per cent.per annum, also an interim dividend on the ordinary shares at the rate of 2 1-2 per cent.per annum on account of the current vear.They have, after providing for depreciation, set aside £83,000 to a general reserve fund, and added £10,000 to the insurance fund, and, from the balance available, recommend a dividend of 8 1-2 per cent, making with the interim dividend already paid 11 per cent.for the year, which will leave £5,446 to be carried forward.Quebec News.Quebec,

and Lawlor.The Quebec cargo is beng discharzed to-night.It consists mainly of some two thousand packages of ammunition.Some surprise is expressed at the fact that the military authorities have not sent any soldiers down to look after this cargo, although a great deal of it is of a highly explosive character.The ship will sail at daybreak, and will likely reach Montreal to-morrow evening.The Ikbal, of the Johnston line, arrived about nine o\u2019clock to-night, and anchored a short distance above the city.The Government steamer Aberdeen, from Halifax, arrived about nine o'clock to-night, and is lying at the Queen\u2019s wharf.Lake Insurance Rates.Chicago, IN, April 26\u2014The marine insurance rates on vessels which were given out to-day by the old line companies show a sweeping advance on all classes of boats, while on the lower grades the rates are prohibitory.The season of navigation, which has extended until December 12th for two years past, is made to end December I.The excess charge on vessels out after that time is so high that practically everything will be in port by the end of November.Shipping Notes, The annual summary of wrecks and casu- altics published by the Bureau Veritas shows that while the steam tonnage of the world has increased from 12,333 vessels of 14,669,569 tons gross in 1892, to 14,725 steamers of 19,379,361 tous gross in 1998, the total

Hopewell Cape, N.B., (a cut of whom appears below), is one of the severest and most intractable that has ever been 7 INT Ny 114 0 EM LE reported from the eastern provinces, and his cure by Milburn\u2019s Heart and Nerve Pills the more remarkable from the fact that he was given up as incurable by worthy and respected physicians.The disease, Locomotor Ataxia, with which Mr.Archibald was afflicted is considered the most obstinate and incurable disease of the nervous system known.When one it starts it gradually but surely progresses, paralyzing the lower extremities and rendering its victim helpless and hopeless, enduring the indescribable agony of seeing himself die by inches.That Milburn's Heart and Nerve Pills can cure thoroughly and completely a disease of such severity ought to encourage those whose disorders are not so serious to try this remedy.The following is Mr, Archibald\u2019s letter: Messrs.T.MILBURN & Co.\u2014¢I can assure you that my case was a very severe one, and had it not been for the use of Milburn's Heart and Nerve Pills I do not believe I would be alive to-day.I do not know, exactly, what was the cause of the disease, but it gradually affected my legs, until I was unable to walk hardly any for five months.« I'was under the care of Dr.Morse, of Melrose, who said I had Locomotor Ataxia, and gave me up as incurable.\u201c Dr.Solomon, a well-known physician of Boston, told me that nothing could be done for me.Every one who came to visit me thought I never could get better.\u201cI saw Milburn\u2019s Heart and Nerve Pills advertised and thought I would try them anyway, as they gave moré pro- miseofhelpingmethananythingIknewof.\u201cIf you had seen me when I started taking those wonderful pills\u2014not able to get out of my room, and saw me now, working hard every day, you wouldn't know me.\u201cI am agent for P.O.Vickey, of Augusta Maine, and have sold 300 subscribers in 80 days and won a fifty dollar rize.Pr Nothing else in the world saved me but those pills, and I do not think they have an equal anywhere.\u201cThe seven boxes I took have restored me tite full use of my legs and given me strength and energy and better health than have enjoyed i in a long time.\u201d G.O.ARCHIBALD.Hopewell Cape, N.B.In addition to the statement by Mr.Archibald, we have the endorsation of two well-known merchants of Hopewell Cape, N.B., viz.: Messrs.J.E.Dickson and F.J.Brewster, who certify to the genuineness and accuracy of the facts as given above.Milburn\u2019s soc.a box, or 3 for $1.25 gists, or sent by mail.T.Co., Toronto, Ont, Heart

shops to be purchased by any Tom, Dick or Harry who may chance tq fancy it.In fact, she often takes great pains to prevent any such fate befalling her \u201ccounterfeit present ment\u201d and cautions her photographer, under threat of hier sore displeasure or pos- &ibly even a logal actinn by husband or father, not to dispose of a single copy of her picture without special permission.They manage things quite differently on the cther side of the pond.Jn London, it is not only considered in good taste, but zbsolutely \u201cthe thing\u201d to have onc\u2019s picture exposed to public gaze In this way.Photographs of royalty, members of tha nobility, and also\u2014provided she be not plain\u2014even \u201cMrs.\u201d without the prefix \u201cHonorable\u201d to show old family descent, stand check by jowl with the latest par- traits of lLillen Terry, Letty Lind or some suddenly notorious music hall singer.Ask any lnglishman of good social standing Why this is allowed and the chances £re vhet he will stare at you blankly for a moment through his single eycglass, and declare: \u201cIt\u2019s the custom, don\u2019t cher know.\u201d And that a thing is English certainly seems to give it sufficient raison d\u2019ctre for the ordinary British mind.The sitters of the great Loudon photographers are of two «lasses.One set of patrons\u2014and these, as a rule, are people one never reads or hears about-\u2014come them in the ordinary way and pay to have their pictures taken like commonplace Americans.The others are the fashionables whdse faces stare out at one from the pages of the illustrated papers or from the windows of the smart shops, These, although the sitters are nearly always persons of wealth and pos1- tion, are often taken for nothing.Yet.very glad indeed are the wizards of the camera to get sucn sitters even at, wha it appears, starvation terms, but in realiiy are quite the opposite, for the photographers make a very good thing from the sale of the photographs.In return for a sitting a lady may receive a dozen cabinets free, but some popular people whose likenesses are always in demand, can have practically as many copies as \u2018they chouse to ask for.\u2018The picture having been taken without payment belongs to the photographer to use as he thinks fit.Perhaps the engagement of a society beauty is announced or her marriage at St.George's is celebrated with great eciai before an audience of the \u2018\u201cnobility and gentry\u201d whose names occupy half a column in the evening papers as among those present.\u201d The illustrated journals note these events and send to the photographers for the latest portraits of the ladies in question.Half a guinea is the usual fee for permission to reproduce such a cabinet photo.Then, as before stated, there is always a steady demand for such pictures from either genuine or would- be youñg men of fashion who like to have portraits of all the notables adorning their mantel shelves, \u2014 HERE AND THERE.Mrs.Curzon is a great reader and linguist, and has a fine musical taste.When Mr.Bayard.the late ambassador to the Court of St.James, was Secretary of State under Mr.Oleveland\u2019s first administration, Miss Bayard gave Sunday evening parties which were no mean approach to a salon; the wit, beauty and culture of the capital gathered in her drawing rooms.Mrs.Curzon (Miss Leiter in those days) was called \u201cthe belle of three cities \u2014New York, Newport and) Washington\u2014 and was usually at these parties, where she always had a circle of admirers about her.I remember that at one of these Sunday parties there were gathered about her four representatives at the capital of four different countries; the subject being of a literary nature, she drifted from one to the other of the four languages- French, Spanish, Italian and German- quoting authors and poets of each nationality with as much facility as if she were speaking her own language all the while.At the court of Vienna the young pecple are carefully instructed in foreign languages.After Emperor Francis Jcseph became engaged to Princess Elizabeth, of Ea- varia, one of his first acts was to furnish her with teachers, who were to instruct her in the Italian, Hungarian and Bohemian languages, and great was his satisfaction when he wag informed in a short time that his betrothed was making excellent rogress in those languages.The Queen Tother, however, was not yet satisfied.She remembered that the Emperor of Austria was also King of Poland, and she insisted that the future Empress should also learn Polish.A clergyman once undertook duty for a preacher, the chief feature of whose sor- mons wis their tediousness.The visitor apologized one Sunday to the clerk in the

of Polish Austria, is one of the most interesting of places to the American tourist.It is a veritable subterranean city, where skilled laborers have carved ball-rooms, restaurants, chapels, altars, statues and chandeliers.There are railways, too, in this wonderful city, which is 700 feet below the surface of the earth.There are sixteen salt lakes, but the visitor may be rowed over only one of them.The waters of this one are thick, dark and heavy, and those who have been across it tell of the ghostlike swish of the waters against the side of the grotto and compare its dark surface to the fabled Styx.There are twenty-five miles of railways in the mines, and a thousand miners are employs ed cvery day in the crystal city.They produce 65,000 tons of salt every year.The mines are under the direct control of the Austro-Hungarian Minister of Finance.A woman grows cypical from two causes \u2014one is that she cannot marry the man she wants and the other that she was disappointed after she

tablespoonful of butter, two heaping tablespoonfuls of flour, one tablespoonful of chopped parsley, twenty drops of onion Juice and salt and cayenne to taste.Scald the milk in a double boiler, rub the butter and flour to a paste and stir it into the milk, when thick and smooth add the yolks of two well-beaten eggs, stir for a moment longer and take from the fire.Add the prepared lobster, the onion Juice, parsley and seasoning and turn out on a greased platter.When cold form carefully into small chops, dip into slightly beaten egg then in fine bread crumbs.Plunge into smoking hot fat, when golden brown drain on unglazed paper, stick into the end of each chop a lobster claw and serve with cream sauce.Into a saucepan put three lewel tablespoonfuls of butter and four level tablespoonfuls of flour, one scant teaspoonful of salt and one-third of a teaspoonful of paprika.Set over the fire until melted and mixed, add gradually one pint of hot cream or rich milk, stirring until smooth and thick.Simmer for five minutes, add one teaspoonful of lemon juice and serve.The paprika will give a delicate tinge of red to the sauce; the coral of the lobster, if there is any, may be rubbed smooth with the butter for the same purpose.dyune Pie.One cup stoned prunes (they are nicer cooked with a few slices of sliced lemon, cook before stoning), 1-2 cup sugar, yoiks of 2 eggs.Mix all

will disappear with less rubbing, and the knves will stay bright muen longer.Another thing of importance I have learned about scouring knives is the substitution of a cut raw potato for the cloth formerly used.Another word for soda.Every housekeeper has experienced the annoyance of kerosene oil spilled on a clean kitchen floor, and knows the labor expended in eradicating the spot.If, before she attempts to scrub it off, she would sift over the spot baking soda, completely covering it, and allow the soda to remain for ten minutes or so, the grease will be drawn out, and when washed the spot will not be found.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 em | Daily Bints {0 Bousekeepers SATURDAY\u2014APRIL 29.Honor is like the eye, which cannot suffer the least impunfity without damage; it is a

Thomas Scott and Albion Hobbs, who charged the town of Outremont with maintaining a nuisance in that Rockland avenue, Outremont, is in an impassable condition owing to the accumulation of snow and ice.The complainants are prosperous milk vendors, and were put to much inconvenience, it is sai, by the state in which the roads were there.The road is now all right, having been opened up about a week after the complaint was entered.Mr.J.Kruse, secre- tary-treasurer of Outremont, was present, and the town was representel legally by Mr.C.P.Beaubien, while Mr.A.G.Cross appeared for the
