[" lL 2 pq = je married to Mlle London, August L\u2014It is now asserted that wireless telegraphy may turn out to be a great menace to the health of the human race.Basing his alarming suggestion upon the fact that the Admiralty is now sending messages to the British fleet at sea by means of a wireless telegraphic apparatus erected at the Navy Head- ! quarters in Whitehall, scientist says: \u201cThis means that ether waves ars being let loose in one of the dens- & well-known est parts of London, in my opinion a most dangerous experiment, consider ing the totally unsuspected results produced by X-rays, which are only another form of ether waves, upon people coming into frequent contact with them.\u201cWith this wireless system general use, the people not London, but of all England, will be continually subjected to these myster- fous and little-understood ether disturbances, with possible calamitous results in the shape of some fearful and obscure disease akin to that caused by X-rays.\u201d Professor Sir William, Crookes, when consulted on the subject, immediately admitted the possibility of the wireless rays being injurious.\u201cMarconi rays and X-rays,\u201d he said, are both vibrations of ether.The X- rays did not produce any injurious effect for some years, and the fact that they were at all dangerous was not suspected.Personally, though I have worked with the X-rays from the beginning, I have escaped harm.It is possible that the wireless rays may have an ill-effect upon people constantly subjected to them, though I have not heard of a case yet.\u201d GRUESO RECO EXECUTI London, August 1.\u2014Taking his cue from the text on which Leo Tolstoi founded his terrible arraignment of the Russian Government because of its massacres by the official hangmen, a correspondent in St.Petersburg sends to the London Daily Telegraph the following gruesome extracts from his diary June 17\u2014Execcution in Ekaterinoslav (the victim pulled the noose himself); execution in Lodz.June 18\u2014Nine death sentences.Re- cit to the Prison Department that a \u201cpolitical\u201d was shot in a Kiev prison because \u201che had seated himself on the window-ledge and enjoyed the landscape.\u2019 June 19\u2014One execution in Riga; two death sentences there for the burning Of a manorial state;- two death sen Lences in Samara.June 20\u2014Six executions in Sebasto- pol and Warsaw.June 21\u2014Two executions; seventeen death sentences (one against a cripple for firing a heap of straw.In Eliza- bethgrad the guard shot at politeal prisoners for looking out of the window of the prison, and wounded two of them.June 22\u2014Two women, on account of alleged participation in the attempt on Governor-General Skalon, condemned to death.June 23\u2014Death sentence.once in only of [Le I an od & SUES FOR À LEGAL SEPARAT San Francisco, August 1.\u2014Katherine Osbourne, wife of Lloyd Oshourne, a novelist and stepson of Robert Louis Stevenson, filed suit for maintenance against her husband, charging him with deserting ber in 1901.She alleged that her mother-in-law, Mrs.Robert Louis Stevenson, was the cause of her domestic difficulties.The Osbournes were married in San Francisco in April, 1896, and have two children.She asks $300 a month for the support of herself and children.a ~~ ww.Aurora, 1lls, August 1.\u2014J.A.Mor- reil, a wealthy farmer living at Blackberry Centre.a village fifteen miles from Aurora, was fatally shot to-day, and his housekeeper, Mrs.May Bal- com, was murdered by John Anderson, who was employed on Morrall\u2019s farm.Anderson later committed suicide with a shotgun.No cause is known for the attack, as ly attached to both of his victime He had been drinking heavily for several weeks, and it iz belleved was demented.From the brief story which Mor- ral!

Out of the dark archway there staggered a little man, with red running-drawers, a tiny, boy-like creature.He reeled as he entered and faced the roar of the applause.Then he feebly turned to the left and wearily trotted round the Toronto had a try, but failed.Their defence bunched, and although Cornwall had the ball most of the time, it was hard to find an opening to Atton\u2019s citadel.Toronto occasionally brought ball up but were not dangerous.The Torontos were evidently very nervous.Cameron made a vicious shot when he did not have the ball, which, by the way, Burns was speeding down field.Some end to end play followed, and Atton had two or three stops.The Cornwall home handled the ball enough to score a dozen gaols, but the Toronto defence were glued to the patch in front of their nets.Torontos made one or two quick attacks, but their passing was rank, and there was nothing doinz.End of the first quarter: Cornwall Toronto .0 The Cornwall started the second quarter with a rush, and almost scored once or twice.The Toronto's home was too weak to use the ball, however, and when they got it, and Cornwall again attacked.Frank Cummins scored in 3 minutes.Cornwall had two or three more tries, and Fid Cummins scored in 2 minutes on a pass from Fred.De- gan.The Cornwall home was working better, and gave Atton a lively time.Harshaw, Menary and Stagg were playing a stubborn game, however, and cleared time and again, only to \u2018have the ball come back to them.Mackenzie fielded well, and tried to help the visitors\u2019 home, but without result.They seldom got near the Cornwall nets, and, when they shot, Burns, Cameron or White picked it cut and cleared.In one of the mix-ups near the Toronto goal Smith strained his leg, tripping up Powers.He was able to continue in a couple of minutes.The ball was faced behind the Toronto flags, and Cornwall continued their attack.Atton caught a hot one from Phalen with his knees.Lalonde hurt his leg, and this caused another delay.Bob Degan scored the fourth goal for Cornwall in 11.95.The Toronto started well for once, but Fred.Degan carried it who tried hard.More end to end play followed, with occasional tries by the Cornwall home, and half time found the score: Cornwall, 4: Toronto, 0.THIRD QUARTER.The third quarter opened with a wild Toronto attack, and a shot by Barrett.The visitors\u2019 home seemed to have braced up, and they made ga desperate but were blocked, the 1 IAN PACH TERS\u2019 PIONS lineq (ields ian West 8, 08 A Unique Opportunity to visit the Wonderful North-West These excursions are second-class and Winnipeg the first destination, but harvesters who engage to work at the harvest will be distributed free on lines Moose Jaw, Kamsack, Swan River and Hast (except the line from Regina to Prince Albert) and at a nominal rate to other points in Saskatchewan and Alberta to and including Calgary, MacLeod and Edmonton.Tickets at $18.00, conditional to thirty days\u2019 work at harvesting, will be issued for the return journey from Moose Jaw, Kamsack, Swan River and East, to the original starting point: propor- tiorate reduction from Calgary, Mac- Leod and Edmonton.Friends and encouragers were pressing round him.Suddenly.the whole group stopped.track.There were wild gesticulations.Men stooped and rose again.Good Heavens, he has fainted; is it possible that even ; at this last moment the prize may slip ; through his fingers?Every eye slides \"round to that dark archway.No sec- \u201ctorn at the ond man has yet appeared.Then a great sigh of relief goes up.I do not think in all that great assembly any man would have wished victory tu be last instant from this plucky little Italian.He has won it.He should have it.Thank God, he is on his feet again ze little red legs going incoherently, but drumming hard, driven by a supreme will within.There js a groan as he falls once more, and a cheer as he staggers again to his feet.It is horrible, and yet fascinating, this struggle between a set purpose and an utterly exhausted frame.Again, for a hundred yards, he ran in the same furious and yet uncertain gail.Then again he collapsed, kind hands saving him from a heavy fall.He was within a few yards of my seat.Amid stooping figures and grasping hands I caught a glimpse of the haggard, yellow face, the glazed, expressionless eyes, the lank, black hair streaked across the brow.Surely he is done now.He cannot rise again.From under the archway has darted up to Smith, | the second runner, Hayes, Stars and | Stripes on his breast, going gallantly \"well within his strength.There is only twenty yards to do if the Italian can do it.He staggered up, no trace of intelligence upon his set face, and again the red legs broke into their strange automatic amble.Will he fall again?No, he sways, he balances, and then he is through the tape and into a score of friendly arms.He has gone to the extreme of human endurance.No Roman of the prime ever bore himself betier than Dorando of the Olympic of 1908.The great breed is not yet extinct.After this supreme epic all is anticlimax, but who can speak without a thrill of the splendid running of the Americans and Canadians?That Western continent develops men of iron.An American was second, and then after the active young South African, in his dusty green and gold, there came yet two other Americans.with three Canadians to follow.Alas! for our British runners, for the fine string from which we expected so much.Well, let us take it like sportsmen, and hats off to the better men ! The Olympic race has brought us no laurel.Let us rejoice in the success of our kinsmen of America, Canada, and South Africa.If we hold on, our turn also will come.But to those who saw it, when all other memory of the great race of 1908 has passed away, there will still remain the vision of that swarthy face, those dead eyes, and the staggering red legs which carried Dorando to victory.Even as I write there comes the rumor that he has been disqualified.If true, it is indeed a tragedy.But there are prizes higher even than the oak branch and the medal.The Italian\u2019s great performance can never be effaced from our records of sport, be the decision of the judges what it i may.and, the ball going down, Degray scored for Cornwall in 11-2 minutes.The face was followed by a shot from Fid Cummins, which Atton blocked.Carter carried the ball up and scored on a nice low shot.Just as he shot he was struck across the abdomen by Chas.Degan, who was very properly ruled off by Referee Foran for 20 minutes.Carter was able to continue and the Toronto attack kept up, but Cameron and Burns transferred play to the other end.\u2018 Menary was chased to the fence for five minutes for slashing.In an attack on the Cornwall goal, Cameron and Burns came down, and the Toronto man had the wind knocked out of him.The play was rather even up for a time, and both goal-keepers had several hot shots.Frank Cummins, who, by the way, was playing all over the field, scored in 6.45.Cornwall continued to attack.Bob Degan gave Menary the crook, and was ruled off, leaving Cornwall with 10 men against 12, and Mackenzie scored in 3 minutes, Toronto using the odd man to advantage.They tried to repeat the rick, but failed.B.Degan came back nto the game, and at once figured in an attack on the Toronto nets, and the quarter ended with the gscore\u2014Corn- wall, 6; Toronto, 2.FOURTH QUARTER.Just before the last of the third quarter Menary and Fid Cummins were ruled off for slashing each other.Toronto scored in half a minute, Kalls doing the trick.Mackenzie was ruled off for Crosschecking.Lalonde got 10 minutes for cross-checking Barnett into the fence.John White scored for Cornwall in 10 minutes.Powers was also penalized for slashing.Fid Cummins was next penalized for sashing Harshaw.Toronto scored by Kalls, in 6.45.Degray was ruled off.Kalls scored again in 1.55.Smith was knocked out by Harshaw, who was ruled off, just before time expired, leaving the score 7 to 5 for Cornwall.SUMMARY, First Quarter.1\u2014Cornwall.Smith .30 Second Quarter.i\u2014Cornwall.Frank Cummins.3.15 3-\u2014-Cornwall.Fid Cummins\u2026.2.00 4\u2014Cornwall.R.Degan .11.25 Third Quarter.5\u2014Cornwall.Degray .evo.1.50 6\u2014Toronto.Carter .05 7\u2014Cornwall.Frank Cummins.\u2026 6.45 8&\u2014Toronto.Mackenzie .,.4.35 Fourth Quarter.9\u2014Toronto.Kalls .30 10\u2014=Cornwall.White, .10.00 11\u2014Toronto.Kalls ae 6.45 12\u2014Toronto.Kalls .1.55 ei A SLIGHT UNPLEASANTNESS.Washington, D.C., August 1.__An unpleasant situation has developed between the United States and Honduras, growing out of the action of President Davila, in cancelling the exequaturs of the foreign consuls at Ceiba, Honduras, because of their alleged friendliness to the revolutionists\u2019 cause.These officers include United States Consul Drew Linard, and Vice-Consu] Reynolds and the vice-consuls of France and Norway.Pw ae.SETTLERS FOR WEST.Winnipeg.August 1.\u2014Two hundred thousand Hungarian farmers will settle in Western Canada during the next four or five years, if the investigation now being made into the conditions in this country by Father Kovacs, a Joseph and Pope Pius X.shows that conditions for their settlement are favorable, special emissary from Emperor Francis | have brought it to the fr.nt and kept it \u2019 | ole LONGBOAT WAS VERY + CONFIDENT.According to the Sporting Editor of the London Daily Mail, issued just before the great Marathon race, Tom Longboat, the Indian runner, gave out the following interview when he eo visited Windsor Castle and in- | spected the start of the route: \u201cI am going to try to do about twelve miles an hour to-morrow, and who beats me will be a wonderful athlete.I never felt in = better \u2018fettle, despite my acci- =< dent.I am not taking a long + stride to-morrow, as I find short- \u2014 er strides easier.\"Je = \u201cI can go any distance almost, + = and I hope to have the honor + * of receiving the chief prize from «\u2014 « the Queen's hands on Satur- + + day.\"je je \u201cI have been most fairly treat- + * ed over here, and I have no com- + \u201c plaint whatever.I shall have +» + fair play to-morrow.I know + \u2018* and I hope the best man will + + win.I shall try and ba that + man\u2019 fe oe Je Marathon race by 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 miles is as follows:\u2014 The official time of the 5 MILES (NEAR FURZE LODGE).The leading men passed: \u2014 1.Jack, Britain, 3.2 p.m.2.Price, Britain;

and beyond these, on the extreme outer edge, were the footprints ascribed to Halswell.One point was raised by all the students of athletics who had watcned the racing.Carpenter's time was 49 secs, and Halswell finished behind him.On the previous day Halswell broke the Olympic record by doing the distance in 48 2-5 secs.\u2014something like five yards better than Carpenter\u2019s time.It was argued that the difference could only be accounted for, seeing that Lieutenant Halswell was in fing running form, by the fact that he had covered more than the pescribed course or had been interfered with.All was doubt and confusion.It became known that the officials had but D CARPENTER gone to their private room, also that they were taking the written statements of all the people concerned.Semi-official communications were made from time to time; first, that the race would be run again in half-an- hour; next; that Carpenter had been disqualified; next, that the race would certainly be postponed to another day, owing to the injustice of setting men so hard a task twice in one afternoon.OFFICIAL DECISION.A new note was then introduced into these semi-official communicaticns.The Americans were protesting hard against the disqualification of Carpenter, considering that the breaking of the tape had, ipso facto, made the race void from the very beginning.In the end, after a long sitting, the committee made an official announcement, in the following terms:\u2014 The British Olympic judges, afier hearing all the evidence, have declared the race void, and it will be run at twelve o'clock on Saturday next, in strings, Carpenter is disqualified.This, of course, is a complete support of the action of the referee.Carpenter\u2019s disqualification, and the order that the postponed race shall be run in \u201cstrings\u2019\u201d\u2014which obviates all possibility of \u201cboring\u201d-\u2014are clear indications of the view the committee took.CARPENTER'S STATEMENT.Mr.J.C.Carpenter made the following signed statement: \u2014 \u201cI started with the inside \u2014berth.Halswell was next to me; Robbins next him; and Taylor on the outside.Up the first straight away Robbins led, and I was running second.Hals- well was close behind me, I imagine.\u201cAt the first curve the positions were unchanged.Then, at the second bend\u2014 right at the top of the course\u2014TI, because of my long stride, was unable to stick to the inside berth.It was at this point that I attempted to pass Robbins, and entered wide into the straight.me.\u201cFrom this point my path was absolutely straight to the finish line, For about ten or fifteen yards\u2014at eighty yards from the finish\u2014Halswell was running absolutely abreast of me, with plenty of room still on the outside of him, and he could also have passed on the inside of me If necessary.\u201cI do not know of any contact between us at any point during the race.I always know exactly what I do during a race, and I am perfectly certain we did not touch.I do not see how a race could have heen more fairly run.\u201d LIEUT.HALSWELL\u2019'S VIEW.Lieutenant Halswell said he was elbowed out by Carpenter.He received two vigorous blows on the chest, andin the dressing-room\u2014he showed the marks.Mr.Paddy Brennan has received \u2018à letter from Alderman Foran, of Ottawa, in which the latter says: \u2014 Ottawa, Ont, July 31st.Dear Paddy,\u2014I duly received your letter of the 23rd instant, but did not reply in the hope that I would see you at the Montreal-Tecumseh match in Montreal last Saturday, at which I acted as referee; but it appears from what I could learn from vour friends who were present at the match that it is a case with you now of business before pleasure, and I certainly do not blame you.As regards your enquiry, you have doubtless seen in the press that we sail from Quebec on Friday, the 2nd October next.The matches in England will be played during the week beginning the 19th of October.We will have ten days in which to get acclimatized and do the necessary training; and, after the series are over, we could play two or three matches, and still be ready to sail back by -the 30th October.I do not expect, however, that we will be in any great rush for the return trip, and we will probably arrange for a somewhat extended trip through the British Isles before returning.No definite arrangements as to this have as yet been made, but in another few weeks we should have full particulars.I am glad to hear that Henry Hoobin is getting ready.TERMS EASY.VARD ST.PAULe¢ Lots from $250 up.ROCKLANDS OUTREMONT.Lots from $200 up.Get off Outremont Cars at Tollgate.WINDSOR PARK ADJOINING WESTMOUNT.Lots from $1653 up.Take Round-the-Mountain 5¢ fare.cars, ;

ibut that statement 1s not correct.Chionis of Sparta, moreover, is credited with a leap of 52ft.These records were engraven in marble statues, and that of Phayllos became popularized in a saying, \"over-leaping the plot.\u201d This proverbial reference proves that tk leap was an extraordinary one, for Phayllos landed Dbe- yond the softenel soil or plot prepared for the jumpers.DID HE USE A SPRING-BOARD?In the course of research on this subject I have noticed various explanations given, such as that Phayl- los leaped from a spring-board, or that he jumped from a height, that he used dumb-bells; but it is only among German commentators, or students who have no practical acquaintance with athletics, that one could ever find acceptance of the record.Phayllos, it is true, used dumb- { bells, but he did not take off from la spring-board, nor, from a study or ancient Greek vases, does it seem that the jump was in any way down hill.The greatest long jump of modern times was that of Howard, of Bradford, in 1854; Howard used 5lb.dumbbells and took off from a wedge-shaped block of wood raised four inches from the ground; and thus helped he cleared 29ft.Gin.The discrepancy is so great as to render belief in the record of Phayllos futile.ven the longest running hop, step, and jump of modern times falls far far short of 55ft.AN IRISH CHAMPION.I remember seeing P.O'Connor, the Irish champion, exhibit a magnificent leap at Stamford Bridge.That man was built to jump; one saw it as he emerged from the pavilion\u2014the com- | paratively light torso, with the long, muscular, wiry lower limbs.He was, moreover, a.master of the art.He ran in a flash of speed to the mark.I compared O'Connor's whole style, his proportions, his flight in air, with the best Greek vases, and I became convinced that Hellas had never produced his superior.Yet O'Connor's record long jump, from a board, is given as 24ft.11 3-4 inches.Among other Greek records we have that of Pheidippides, who covered 135 miles in rough country in a couple of days, to bring to Sparta the news of the approach of the Persian host.Pheidippides was henceforth honored almost like a demi-god.Certainly it was a fine performance, but there are dozens of men now living who could do as well.The famous Foster Powell, when well on in years, walk- {ed from London to Canterbury and | back, about 112 miles, in twenty-four ! hours.In 1882 Lieutenant Salvatore, of Marsala, travelled over rough tracts from Lecce to Taranto, 104 miles, in twenty-four hours.SUPERIORITY OF MODERN ATHLETICS.Among many curious notes I find that Euchidas, the Boeotian, made the distance from Plataea to Delphi and back, about ninety-five miles, in one day, and dropped dead at the finish.Argeus won the dolichos, the long- distance race of about two and a half miles, and immediately ran off to his home, sixty miles away, to,, be the bearer of the glad tidings.Lasthenes is said to have beaten a war charger from Koronaea to Thebes, a distance of about twenty miles.Milo, the strong man, was able to poke his forefinger through a green apple, and here we have at least a feat that might be tested.Although the Greek records are so uncertain, yet by considering every feature of their games, their style of training, their statues, their vases, their feats on the large scale, such as the marching of troops, we seem led to the conclusion that our athletes represent a development superior to theirs.PHYSICAL, EFFICIENCY.Many of the ancient writers, particularly the men and women, were : physical It has been inclined to condemn the games altogether from the point of view of the efficiency of the nation.Plato, who had a natural feeling in favor of the athletes, speaks of the lack of the bloom of youth on their cheeks and of liveliness in their eyes; and this, though they were noted for temperance and chastity.Our athle- | tes last longer at a high level of ex- | cellence.Flanagan, Corbett, Mace Great modern athletes like and many others among boxers: Hanlon, Beach, land Gaudaur among oarsmen; West- I ha, Seward, Hutchens, and Frank i Hewitt among marvellous runners, l the Olympian have all won laurels at an age when athletes would have been content to talk of past glories.And what shall be said of such heroes of sport as Captain Webb and Holbein, whose feats transcend all that the Greeks ever dreamed?Greek boxing, in which the men fought with the cestus, usually made of thongs of untanned leather, was a terrible affair; but the accounts of the sports, and the references in the poets, go to show that the boxers were slow and heavy, that their stock of | blows was poor compared to the bat- i teries of attack of our own fighters.! The fire, the courage, the genius of Jem Belcher would have made short work even of Damoxenos, while Mel- ancomas, the willest of them all.could not have lived with Tommy Burns.Ulysses when he gave Ajax the cross- buttock was good, and Arrichion was a desperate wrestler; but we miss in the story of their feats the impression of mingled finesse, quickness, and strength that we find in Hacken- schmidt.The Greek athletes were not so great as ours, yet there was something particularly noble in their games\u2014 that superior animating spirit, that fine inter-penetrated sense of the whole magnificant spectacle, the splendid celebration, being a tribute to the civic ideal and a joyous sacrifice to the beauty of life.Éd.de au There is à rumor going the rounds that a new first-class Soccer club will spring into existence next season bearing the name of a prominent railroad company.The more the merrier, as new faces will add fresh interest to the \u2018 game, providing, of course, they have the proper guiding hands, sit nu ae Mr.Winston Churchill states that the lion is no seeker after quarrels.His object throughout life is to save his skin.Lynch, author of Religio Athletae, in!

Valleyfield's withdrawal from the league, really surprised no one, as there had been rumors for some time past to that effect.Valleyficld seem particularly unfortunate in thelr local affairs, last year the strike interfered with their fixtures, many going by default, this year it is a \u201cshut down\u201d or lockout.Everyone is sorry for the troubles that have beset them.They lodged three reasons for their resignation, poor refereeing, debarred from Caledonian Cup ties, and denied resident representative on local Association.Regarding the Caledonian Cup, it is difficult to see what other course the Association could take than to bar outside clubs this year, owing to the league schedule, not allowing for cup dates, thus limiting the participants.The fault lay in the first place with the committee that drew up the schedule, but having done so, there seemed nothing left but to limit the cup to six clubs.Really a great pity for, as said in this column early in the season, clubs that can reach a semifinal without having played a game, gain very little credit even in the possession of the cup, which to retain its full sentimental value should be open to all.Valleyfields second complaint re bad refereeing, this is without doubt the poorest form of argument a losing club can use, and as a complaint, has no real value.As every Soccer man knows, in and outside the tabernacle, the rule passed preventing outside clubs having a city representative, was passed for a specific purpose.It was too much to expect Valleyfield to send a representative to each local meeting, and Valleyfield in this point have just cause for complaint.The incident is now closed, however, and to the regret of many, they have ceased to be members of our league.In the interests of Soccer, all true friends of Valleyfield hope it is but a temporary eclipse, and that they will come again.Westmount feel they have been hardly dealt with, in regard to the league\u2019s ruling, that all games played against Valleyfield shall stand, and subsequently fixtures go by default.This incident should serve to silence some of those critics, who have perhaps too often asserted that West- mount always got the best of a deal in our local council.In the writer's opinion all Valleyfield records should have been expunged, but having by the majority declared them to stand, there should be no re-opening the question, as it is only à self-admission of weakness and unstability.You can never have a court of appeal composed of the very clubs who have already decided the issue, at a previous meeting.This position smacks of a comic opera.As Valleyfield\u2019s one victory was over Westmount, this defeat may jeopardise the latter's chance in the league.But having had their opportunity to state their side of the case, they should submit to the decision of the men, who perhaps at some future time they may wish to uphold Westmount are far from being out of the running.res = tt The Colonials won their protest against Rosemount, and the league fixture of 20th June, must be replayed.No one blames the Colonials for pushing their appeal, but it is only another instance of the same men re-opening a case, after once having given their decision.The practice is dangerous and should be stopped, as it will only lead to endless complications and dissatisfaction.Having given their verdict there should be no appeal, that is under the present constitution of the Association.The Colonials claim they were, not properly represented at the first meeting, but that was not the fault of Rosemount, and as the referee was present to give his report, one fails to see the justification for this reversal.The two games played in Caledonia Cup ties produced some exciting play, C.P.R.and Rosemount earning the right to enter the semi-final, the Colonials and Westmount reaching that stage without toil.The C.P.R.game gave some strenuous incidents, so much so that Herron.Points\u2019 left back, was ordered off the field and suspended the same evening for three weeks\u2019 expeditious work.C.P.R.deserved to win, being clearly the better team.Points re-introduced White, who gave such a striking display against Rosemount some while back, but even White could not save them.The Points, it is a pity to say took their defeat badly, and the match closed with a scene, the referee being escorted from tha field This is to be regretted.and those di-adyisca sup- : SALOON $62.50 Allan Iimne ROYAL MAIL SERVICE.MONTREAL TO LIVERPOOL.From Montreal.From Quebec.Tunisian .Aug.7, 9 a.m.7.30 p.m.Victorian

tr =\" THE STANDARD, SATURDAY, AUGUST 1, 1908, UASION Chief Medical Inspector, in Article for Standard, Says Honest Milkmen Must Be Protected Against Unscrupulous and In connection with The Standard\u2019s Pure Milk Campaign, Dr.J.E.Laberge, Chief Medical Inspector, has prepared ject for The Standard.Among other points made by Dr.Laberge, in discussing the terrible ravages made by fmpure milk among children, he notes that in spite of man\u2019s ingenuity, it is impossible to elaborate a process which would replace good sound cow\u2019s milk for food for children.The following figures on infantile mortality show the great danger of using impure milk for the above- named purpose, and the great need of improving its quality.In France during 1902 sixteen per cent.of newly-born infants died during the first year.In (Germany, the death rate of infants was 22.6 per cent.in 1894, and 27 per cent, in 1901.Two million children are yearly born in Germany: one-half or perhaps two- thirds of thelr number are probably fed artificially.150,000 die every year, victims of impure milk.During the three wars which resulted in the present German Empire, 56,000 men were killed: this loss is quite insignificant as compared with the infantile mortality.The following are facts concerning infantile mortality in some American cities, and also in Montreal» Average infantile mortality in: Per

Protestants .er 40 ee os +.41.17 IN AMERICAN CITIES, In American cities such as Boston, New York, Philadelphia, great efforts are made to protect the public against the deleterious effects of pure milk.They are very particular about its richness in fat, they impose heavy penalties on those who are caught practising adulterations, and sxamine It very closely to ascertain the extent of its bacterial contents and other forms of contamination.In those cities a close control of milkmen- and milk producer is exercised, and the outcome of this good work is that the infantile mortality is gbout one-half the infant mortality of Montreal.In 1905, thirty bacteriological exam- {nations were made of the milk sold by milkmen in Montreal, and \u2018the average result was 987,917 bacteria per cubic centimetre.The maximum number was 4,975,000, and the minimum was 171,429 germs by cubic centimetre, | analyses of the same class of milk, \u2018cational work remains to be done in In 1906, out of forty bacteriological A cA Dishonest Competition.Ga ten samples contained more one million germs per cubic centimetre.The largest number of samples had over 500,000, and only three or four samples gave a count of less than 100,000 bacteria per cubic centimetre, NO WONDER CHILDREN DIE.From the above figures, can it be wondered at the extent of the infantile mortality in Montreal?It js difficult to know whether milk is fresh or not, because its bacterial contents cannot be ascertained until two days have elapsed after sample.It is therefore impossible to stop the sale at once of suspected milk, but as soon as it is found that the supply of a certain milkman is rich in bacteria we can prevent the future consumption of that class of milk.; The great need of domestic science is to explain the scandalous abuse of which consumers are the unconscious victims, An immense amount of edu- than this respect.Here legislation is powerless; it could not replace the good advice of doctors, of benevolent women, emissaries from humanitarian societies, and it is to such noble and timely interference that the discomfort of poverty is not further increased by sorrow and death in many families.THOSE IN MILK TRADE.Business is business, and those in the milk trade are there for the purpose of gain only.The less work, care and trouble about milking and milk, the greater are the profits, Milkmen are not supposed to look specially after the health of children.It is no matter to them how many die, provided they make money.There are some honest milkmen, striving to do their best to deliver a falr article, but unfortunately they are the exceptions, not the rule.It is our duty to protect honest milkmen against unserupulous and dishonest competition from careless milk ven- ors.Some cities call for 12 per cent.total solids, and 3 per cent.of fat.Montreal now requires 3.25 per cent.of fat as well as 12 per cent.total solids.Hence, all milk which did not contain 3 per cent.of fat was considered adulterated.and any milkman caught seli- ing such a product was liable to a fine.It iz known that In some cases milk is naturally poor in fat.It may contain say 2.5 per cent.of fat, and at the.same time be rich in other\u2018 solids.Such milk is more vaiuable for children\u2019s food than the product contain- Ing 4 per cent.of fat, and which may be deficient in caseine, phosphate, etc.The first product, although a fairly good one, would be condemned, and the second, while a poor one, would be approved.With the Babcock test and milk standard, it was thought that the end of all milk troubles had come.But, milkmen were again equal to the situation.They made use of the new machine to further their own ends.This is how they solved the problem.Muni- cipal ordinance calls for 3 per cent.of fat; theirs contained 4 per cent.They simply added to it water enough to reduce the fatty contents to about 3.25 per cent, and the milk still stood cbove municipal requirements.GREAT EXTENT OF POLLUTION.Then bacteriology came to the rescue of hygiene and revealed to the world, the great extent of milk pollution, and Boards of Health at once establish: ed bacterial standards condemning milk containing over 100,000 per c.c.It was thought that at last dishonest milkmen were caught.But, no; they at once proceeded to originate other means of evading the law.They began to clarify milk by the use of centrifugal apparatus running so slowly that cream separation would be incomplete, but in such a way as to leave a large portion of the bacteria amongst

keep any longer than ordinary milk, hence, during the last 25 years milk authorities have striven hard to find some effective means of inducing milkmen to produce and deliver sound, clean milk.EFFORTS HAVE BEEN CHECKED.So far, the results, made either by Boards of Health, or scientific commission to attain this most desirable cb- ject have been checked by similar efforts made by certain dishonest milkmen so as to keep a market for the sale of their unclean and adulterated products.Milk dealers are intelligent men; they understand that the milk is to them a question of dollars and cents.Let us give them a higher price, if needed, but let it be understood that the milk must not be adulterated, and must be rich in fat and other required elements.Milkmen, are as a rule, hard working people, and their profits are not usually large.Unfortunately many of them believe that success depends not so much on the good quality of the milk, but on the money obtained for the milk.Let us show them that if they spend the same energy in securing good, roomy well-lighted and well ventilated stables, and have well-fed and clean cows giving large quantities of good milk, they would secure better financial results for themselves, and help greatly to reduce the infantile mortality.The great battle for good milk must be fought in the field of instruction and of moral suasion, but at the same time we must not neglect such con- trolling means as science has placed.within our reach.STANDARD MILK INSPECTOR VISITS FARMS AND REPORTS AS TO MILK $ 54 TIC PLY Lnvestigation of Wells Shows Many \u201cCurious Facts-126 of These Farms Are Not in Conformity With Certain Articles of Provincial Board of Health.the (Report held over from Issue of July 25th through pressure of Tercentenary matter.) The Milk Inspector provided by The Standard to make a thorough examination of all the sources of the milk supply of Montreal is being thoroughly carried out.At the close of the investigation a full report will be made, and it will be a report that will open the eyes of the citizens of Montreal.In the meantime, a synopsis of each week\u2019s work is published.The Standard\u2019s Inspector finds that many farmers supplying the city with milk pay little attention to the va'ue of lots of pure water for their herds, On many farms the Standard\u2019s inspector has detected the greatest indifference to this subject, The wells, in many cases, are reservoirs where the water reeks from manure heaps, cesspools, pig-stys, and other contaminated places.Here the milk is modified and bottled for the use of infants, and then distributed to the various stations.PS AS RESULT ILK CAMPAI The infant mortality this summer has shown a decided decrease in comparison with last year, and, according to the health authorities, this is the result of the strenuous Pure Milk Campaign waged by The Standard for the past few months.These are the figures for three weeks of July of this year and for the corresponding weeks of 1807: \u2014 Week ending July 13, 1907.Under six months.4 1 year .\u201c 2 1 44 5 \u201ce \u2018we ea ee se Total under 5 years .Week ending July Under six months.\u201c 1 year .\u201c8 2 és se 5 \u201c se ao .\u2018aw woe ee os ae me Total under 5 years Week ending July Under six months.Yl YOAT .+.\u201c 2 66 se * > 0 .\u2018 5 \u2018 >» \u2019 FI .Total under 5 years These figures indicate that The Standard\u2019s Campaign and the efforts of t he Week ending July 11, 1908.75 deaths.Under six months.70 deaths.44° \u201c 1 year .28 og © 69° #1 Le 0 00 1° 11 5 < «pose LULU.11 « .181 \u201c Total under 5 years .120 \u201c 20, 1907.Week ending July 18, 1908.98 deaths.Under six months.71 deaths.T4 \u2018 \u2018 { year .\u2026.oo oo» 41 : .10 \u2018 \u20186 20 ii ie ee ee an 5 \u201c .3 \u2018s + 5 Le au 00 00 es 8 .185 \u201c Total under 5 years .125 \u201c 27, 1907, Week ending July 25, 1908.T1 deaths.Under six months.66 deaths, 46 \u201c \u201c 1 year .\u2026.27 \u201c 7 \u201c \u201ce 2 5 .\u201ca \u201cee 14 oo 5 \u201c «i 5 .\u201c .ee ee ae .3 \u2018 129 Total under 5 years .110 \u201c Pure Milk League have resulted In a large decrease of the infantile mortality.There must also be considered the fact that there is in Montreal, this year, 20,000 more of a population than in the previous year.The infant deaths from diarrhoeal complaints this year have been much less than last year.of the direct effects of an impure milk supply.Deaths from diarrhoeal ailments for the weeks ending July 13, 20, and 27, 1907, were 92, 135 and 100.corresponding weeks of this year the deaths were 82, 87, and 87.In considering the infantile mortal ity, there are a great many factors which have to be taken into consideration, and a very important one is the weath er.The temperatures for the corresponding weeks of 1907 and 1808 were as follows:\u2014 For the week ending July, 13, 1807.Sunday.ce ee ve we we: Manday.Tuesday .ew ee se se wo Wednesday co co ae ov.Thursday.i.St gym Saturday _ ce co ts ee eo For the week ending July 20, 1907.Sunday.+4 54 20 00% Monday.+.+.+8 00 +0 6 Tuesday .Wednesday +.vv ve oo Thursday.+ ov vo ov» Friday.+0 +5 0 Baturday ._.ss se +.» se + For the week ending July 27, 1907.Sunday.Monday.eo co se a0 a» Tuesday Wednesday vo eo co oe oo Thursday.Friday.Saturday .«eo co vo oo ce ee +.se » \u201c8 se se eo.ce as eo ea an ve sa oo Ve se ve ae aw as ae se ce Max.Min.TA 59 Sunday.TI 64 Mongwy.71 58 Te] Fos se 0 70 56 We sday .71 59 Thur Lay.59 57 -

GLASGOW, Scotland.To the Editor of The Standard.Dear Sir,\u2014I have been much interested in the articles on the infant death-rate of Montreal, which appeared in The Standard.I fear at this distance, and without any knowledge of the local conditions in Montreal or of the circumstances under which its milk supply is produced, I can scarcely write anything which would interest your readers; but I would like to express the satisfaction I share with all those interested in public matters in becoming ac- acquainted with the very definite effort which you are making to reduce probably the most refractory portion of death- rates everywhere.In connection with health generally, and more particularly the health of those infants who must be brought up artificially, the value of a pure milk cannot be over-estimated, and in this country, as with you, we still lack the force of an educated public opinion, which will insist on milk being free not only from germs of specific disease, but of the grosser forms of dirtiness which are present in most commercial milks.But apart from the question of purity of milk supplies ,there is a wide fleld for effort in the direction of domestic visitation of homes in poorer districts where births occur and one of the most hopeful as well as most useful phases of the movement in this country consists in the visitation of these districts by an organized corps of lady visitors, whose work is enthusiastically spoken of by every one who has practical experience of its value.Yours truly, HEEEEEREEERKELBRERRE ELLER EERE REE R EKER EEE LR REKRERRR REEL KER LR RN KR A.K.CHALMERS, M.D.Medical Officer of Health for City of Glasgow.EEEERE ERK EBRE ERE REFERER SR ERR ERR EERE RRR ERE R ERE REL ERR LEK REE RED Rk Rh ® x SRE RF Ka In connection with the recent exposure of frauds by a road foreman, named Charest, by which the city has been defrauded of $1,486, it has deve- lcped that payments have also been made to one, I, St.Hilaire, on orders made out in the names of his daughter and Miss Robert, jointly.The orders read that Mr.St.Hilaire was sick, and requested that his pay be given to his daughter, who would be accompanied by Miss Robert.This system of peculation has been run successfully since October of last year, The detoétive department have #1 far been unabie to trace either Mr.Charest or Miss Robert.| ip At the present time the 2 [0] League has 50 babies en- co trusted to its care.5 VOUS SSS à GOSSES ET To the Editor of the Montreal Standard: Sir: In the name of the members of the Pure Milk League we beg to thank you for the valuable assistance towards our work which we have received from you and your paper this summer.At the present time 500 bottles of prepared milk food are distributed daily, by us in the city.But lately the demands made upon us owing to the excessively hot weather, have been unusually heavy.In consequence of this rush our funds are almost entirely gone, and unless the citizens of Montreal come to our aid we will have to \u2014\u2014\u2014 ENORM Since the break in the Cornwall Canal was repaired 1,800,000 bupshels of grain have been brought down by the boats of the Montreal Transportation Company alone.It is expected that in the next few months the same boats will handle from 3 1-2 to 4 million bushels more.At the time of the break all boats below Cornwall were transferred to the Maritime Provinces trade, and since then \u2018have been handling consignments of steel rails and heavy cargoes of that nature.Ol If the appetite of a man were as great in proportion to his size as is a sparrow\u2019s, he would eat a whole sheep at one sitting.\u201cFAKED THE PER Dr.MeCarrey, Chief Food Inspector, has been making a round of the ice cream parlors, and has come to the conclusion that the amount of cream fades into obscurity as compared with other ingredients.The inspector, of course, is not concerned with the component parts of ice cream, unless they are pre- Judiced to the public health, or the element of fraud enter into the concoction.Corn flour would seem to be the most frequently-used substitute for cream, and this is disposed of in large quantities.It is a harmless ingredient of ice cream, but it can be bought much cheaper by the pound.Various coloring aud flavoring \" ICE CREAM wedi -

cheeks as she became aware of Fe number of witnesses to her death.As the representative of the Public prosecutor read out the death warrant in trembling voice, she stood quite calm before him, with her hands lightly clasped in front of her.The spectators were unable to discern either a twitch in her features or a tremor in her body.When the official had finished the document, and called upon the executioner to do his work, she did not wait to be led, but mounted the five steps which led to the guillotine with a light alert tread.Standing erect, she was quickly strapped on to the bascule,

the present state of the French navy.In an interview with the \u201cLiberte\u201d he says: \u201cThe navy has dropped to an inferior rank, which is at once a disgrace and a danger.Insubordination and negligence reign from top to bottom of the naval hierarchy.The subalterns no longer obey their superior officers, and the sailors openly defy their chiefs.\u201cIn the arsenals the workmen pay no attention to regulations, and their work Is ridiculous.\u201cWhat wonder if our warships are sometimes built defectively, and if there are continual breakdowns as soon A as they are afloat?\u201d THE STANDARD, SATURDAY, AUGUST 1, Epecial to The Standard.London, Eng., August 1.\u2014 An important forecast of the conditions under which a naval war would be fought by Great Britain and Germany is given by Colonel Cuniberti, the celebrated Italian naval constructor, in an article which he has written for the new edition of Mr.Fred.T.Jane's \u2018Fighting Ships,\u201d published to-day.Colonel Cuniberti, who was one of the first to predict the necessity for battleships of the Dreadnought class, now discusses the utility of such battleships in the event of an Anglo-German war, which would, he says, be fought in the North Sea and the Baltie, and doubtless include blockades.He predicts the evolution of a \u201cday- and-night battleship\u201d of 20,000 tons __ one that will not only be efficient for long-distance battles in the daytime, but confidently withstand short-range night attacks from torpedoes, mines, and submarines, such as would be encountered during blockades.\u2018How can the 20,000 tons of displacement of the battleship of the future be divided so as to meet the necessities of a combat by day and edually to those of night?\u201d asks Colonel Cuniberti.\u201cIt is certainly not possible to balance these conflicting requirements so accurately as to obtain a type which Will serve indiscriminately for all the navies of the world, and still less is this possible if it be contemplated to make such a type serve against any and every adversary.We have seen that each war has been followed by re- groupings of interests which, even when not cemented by distinct alliances, may yet rapidly and entirely change the or- fentation of a navy.\u201cWhen such a change in orientation takes places, in most cases it would involve also a considerable change in the type of the war material, which, of course, is not always practical nor op- Portune.In any case, it would only be a great power with ample funds at its disposal which could afford repeatedly to transform its vessels and their armaments according to the new direction of its political aims.\u201d Special to The Standard.Allahabad, August 1.\u2014Judgment in three sedition cases has been announced in one day, the sentences ranging from 14 months in the Arunodaya case and three years in the Yugantar case, to six years\u2019 transportation for Mr.Tilak.Mr.Tl'ak's case naturally excited the greatest amount of interest, as he is personally far better known than the editors of the two Calcutta sheets.It is sure, too, to Zive rise to a great outcry in the native press.The sentence is a heavy one for a man 53 years of age, but one has to remember Mr.Tilak's antecedents, his conviction ten years ago, his open preaching of Swaraj doctrines, his breach even with the moderates of the Congress party owing to the fiery nature of his propaganda.The jury, of course, had to stick to the alleged seditious articles, and to put aside bias, but they could hardly be blamed if, in the light of certain -Obvious facts, they regarded Mr.Ti- lak's ar,uments as hollow.Mr.Tilak pleaded eloquently that he was defendng a down-trodden people against an unsympathetic bureaucracy and a virulent Anglo-Indian press, and posed as a martyr and a champion of liberty against repression.He asked the jury for justice, thanked them, the judge and the prosecution, fer their conduct in his trial, and employed in his behalf all the persuasive arts of the professional agitator.But all this could not prevent the judge or the jury from testing his arguments and seeing whether they rang true.The judge, himself an Indian, obviously had no doubts on the point, \u2018It seems to me,\u201d he said, in passing sentence, \u201cthat it must be a diseased and most perverted mind that can think that the articles you have written are legitimate articles in a political agitation.They preach violence; they spoke of murder with approval, and the bad, cowardly, and atrocious act of committing murders by bomb not only seems to meet with approval, but you hail the advent of bombs in India as if something had ceme to this country for its good.\u201d A TERRITORIALS ARE NOW IN CAMP Special to The Standard.London, Eng, August 1.\u2014From today, August 1, until August 16, every day 66 bullocks will be required to feed the troops concentrated on Salisbury Plains.There are 40,000 men\u2014 25,000 of them Territorials\u2014encamped there for 14 days, and that means 40,- (00 Ibs.of meat per day and 40,000 lbs.of bread.During the fortnight 560,~ C00 rations will be served out, representing 560,000 lbs.of meat.Other stores will be obtained exactly as if all the men were regulars, and the Territorials will have to find their milk and sugar by contributing the necessary halfpenny daily, as in the case of the ordinary soldier.Mr.Haldane is carrying out strictly his promise to regard the new Territorial force as a serious body, aiming at thorough military discipline and having\u2014what the volunteers never had \u2014a recognized position in the scheme of national defence.Mr.Haldane will personally inspect this concentration of home guardsmen.He 1s putting the Territorial forces on their trial from August 1 till August 16.England contains about 13,000 square miles of coalfields.ALBANI SANG FOR THE POO London, Eng., August 1._ Mme.Al- bani, the great Canadian singer, last Sunday sang to a crowded congregation in St.Mary's Church, Somers Town.Little children, brought in from the streets to hear her, sat on the chancel steps.Working women and working men__some in Sunday clothes, but many in the toil-stained garments of every day _crowded the aisles and pews.The doors of the ehurch were wide open, and throngs assembled round the porch to catch a few notes from the great prima donna.The crowded congregation in that poor man\u2019s church hung as breathlessly on her singing as ever did an audience at Covent Garden or the Albert Hall, and the children gazed enraptured as the glorious notes of \u201cAngels Ever Bright and Fair\u201d thrilled through the church.The Mayor and Council of St.Pan- cras were present in state, and the Rev.Dr.Collisson, after preaching an eloquent sermon on charity, accompanied Mme.Albani on the organ.The wrestlers and athletes of India develop great strength by living on milk, a little goat\u2019s flesh, and plenty of food made from flour.HOMAGE TO THE GRERT CHAMPLAIN Special to The Standard.London, Eng, August 1._ The special correspondent of the Daily Mail at Quebec writes the following vivid de- scription of the celebration of Champlain Day: The children of Roman Catholic France did homage to the memory of Champlain, the founder of Quebec.History and sentiment demanded that the celebrations should be initiated by the representatives of the race that intro- «duced civilization into the valley of the St.Lawrence.As the gay procession of children and young men moved through the crowded streets the centuries rolled back, and to the music of military bands there stepped out the soldiers of mediaeval days with banners unfurled to the breeze.It was not their dress claimed their French origin.Near the statue stood the picturesque representatives of the men who brought civilization to more than half the continent of North America.They grouped themselves at the foot of the Champlain statue, banners in hand, and placed their wreath of laurel before the founder of the city.TO STIR THE IMAGINATION.The scene might well stir the imagination.Young people were grouped about the statue that crowns the height where Champlain built his first habitation.At their feet flowed the river, flecked with foam, that bore the intrepid pioneer three centuries ago to the romantic land of the ruthless Iroquois.Purple hills bounded the grey horizon to the north, where sailed the Don de Dieu with its score of peasants and artisang Beyond the St.Lawrence rose the convent and the church in which is enshrined the faith of this Catholic community, and round the bend of the river lay the battlefield of the two races whose union is symbolized in the obelisk posterity has raised to Montcalm and Wolfe.In the midst of these descendants of the new France stood the bronze figure of Champlain in flowing robe, plumed hat in hand, saluting the west.\u201cHe hears us,\u201d said a little maid, and in truth he seemed to be listening to the voice of mediaeval France as he looked smilingly upon the children.A papal banner of white and gold fluttered in the breeze.Over against it was the fleur-de-lis with cross of white on blue, emblems of the race and religion deep-rooted in the soil.Beneath the feet of the children lies the dust of the great champion who bore privations, dangers, and discouragement with heroic fortitude, whoge name is not merely a tradition, but an inspiration.toni > YUKON DANCE HALLS DOOMED.Victoria, B.C., August 1.\u2014The movement of the temperance wave throughout America has brought it even thus early as far north as the Arctic circle.One of the first measures offered to the Yukon Legislature, the annual session of which has just opened, is a bill for the elimination of all saloons within the territory, inclusive of Dawson City, and giving only to properly equipped hotels the right to sell intoxicants.Ce A blow has also beefstruck against the dance halls of the Yukon, the one remaining part of Canada in which women have been legally employed to bromote the sale of liquor.Jack Mc- Crimmon has been sentenced to thirty days\u2019 imprisonment at hard labor and without the option of a fine for running a dance hall.Justice Dugas, in rendering sentence, stated that a longer term would of a certainty be imposed upon the next conviction.The stand of the Yukon aulhorities is paralleled by that of British Columbia, which has decided to grant no liquor permits or licenses along the line of the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway, now building, and which will probably introduce drastic temperance legislation for the entire province at the forthcoming session of the Provincial Legislature.i If the Local \u201cScotland Yarder\u201d owns one of our new improved, Ontario \u2018made.Leach Pianos-if

IT AN \u201cINSPIRING CEREMONY\u201d Special to The Standard.London, Eng., August 1.\u2014The London Daily Express publishes the following editorial on the Quebec Tercentenary under the heading, \u201cAn Inspiring Ceremony\u201d: \u201cEven in the official translation the address presented to the Prince of Wales by the Mayor of Quebec glows with eloquence and color.The digni- fled allusion to the three centuries of the great city\u2019s life, the record of which reads, as is claimed with pride, more like an epic poem than sober history, and the tactful recognition of the benefits received both from France and England, reached a high level of oratory.The French-Canadian is proud of his ancestry, as he well may be.He has not forgotten the romance of former days.But he realizes with generous completeness the courtesy and care of Britain.We like to hear him speak of \u2018the two great countries who are our mothers.\u2019 We rejoice with him that on this great occasion it has been so ordered by a fortunate fate that the Frenchman in Canada can still cry: \u2018Long live the King!\u2019 That he can cry: \u2018Long live the Dauphin!\u2019 no more is compensated for by the opportunity to cry with heart and voice: \u2018Long live the Prince of Wales!\u201d With the charming, easy loyalty that is bred in their bones, the French-Canadians have raised the cry.The honor paid by the representatives of Britain to the founder of Quebec has won their hearts.We may search past history in vain to find a parallel for a union so complete bhe- tween old-time foes as is to be witnessed in Canada to-day.\u201cThe Prince of Wales, in his reply, touched with a delicacy beyond all praise exactly the right note.He too gpoke warmly of the undying memory of Samuel de Champlain.The few words of appreciation added by the Prince as a tribute from a modern sailor to the glory of the intrepid explorer had a value impossible to over-esti- mate.They supplied the personal interest that a formal reply to an address could hardly be expected to express.We have no doubt that those simple, a link which will stand many a strain.The Heir-Apparent was also thus enabled to signify to the representatives of France and the United States the hearty appreciation of the compliment paid to Great Britain and Canada by their presence which is felt both by the Empire and the King.Nothing seems to have been ill-done or left undone at this memorable and inspiring ceremony.\u201d * WE OFFER I SPECIAL PRIZE OF 1 T0 THE GAPTURER OF RAFFLES.In the event of that elusive

life of William H.Taft.Through a local insurance broker yesterday they assumed a risk of $100,000 on the life of the Republican candidate for one year at 5 per cent.and it is understood that they are willing to write a considerable amount at that rate.Brokers said that 5 per cent.was unusually high for that class of policy, and pointed out that four years ago, when Lloyds assumed risks on the life of President Roosevelt, their rate was a fraction ynder 2 per cent.Lloyds recently issued about $1,000,- 000 insurance against the election of William J.Bryan to the Presidency, most of which was/taken out by brokers who were long of the market and wished to guard themselves against the loss that would result in the event that he was elected to the Presidency.The rush to take out these policies became s0 great that Lloyds raised the rate from 10 to 20 per cent.which practically put an end to the demand.The fortune-teller is prominent at Chinese weddings; should his prophecies be unfavorable, either party may break off the match.HARVARD NOT FOR THE PRINCE?Special Cable to The Standard.Berlin, August 1.\u2014In connection with the otherwise prosaic announcement that Prince August Wilhelm, fourth son of the Kaiser, has passed the examination at Strassburg University qualifying him for the degree of doctor of political science, it is recalled that two years ago his parents withheld their consent to his marriage to his cousin, Princess Alexandra of Schleswig-Holstein until his university studies were finished.The Prince accordingly hustled and qualified in two years instead of the customary three years.It is now assumed that he will obtain permission to marry, in which case doubtless the last will have been heard of his attending Harvard University.They
