Plant Line steamer Halifax relae some remarkable stories of the ter- relate some remarkable stories of the ter- and murder which have been laid to the crew of the wrecked vessel are confirmed on every hand.Fred, Nyffler, the sole survivor of a Swiss party of about fifteen, going to their gative country, on a visit, gave a graphic account of the disaster.He is 29 years old, and was one of the few survivors who could speak English fluently.He left Tacoma, Washington, on the 25th of June and joined his party on La Bourgogne the following Saturday.When they left New York the weather was fine, and continued so until a few hours before the accident.Nyffler, who was in bed when \u2018the collision occurred, knew nothing of the \u201ccollision, but as it was his practice to get up early, he arose at about five o'olock and went on deck.He was surprised to ses - splinters laying around and he walked forward in search of the officers of the watch.Nyffler asked him what was the matter.He replied, \u201cNothing.\u201d Nyffler believed him and walked about the deck.He noticed, however, that the ship began to list and that other passengers were wearing life belts.He went below and put one on.When he came up he met Eliza Niffen- .genner, a Swiss girl, from New York.She knew nothing about the collision, and NyfHler got her a life belt and then both got into a lifeboat.The boat was packed with men and women, waiting for the sailors to cut the boat loose.The crew did not come, and the boat went down with the ship.Nyffler was the only one saved of all the party.While Nyffler was in the boat he saw the captain on the bridge 1 a-one: Captain Lost His Head.The captain, he said, had evidently lost his head, and was walking up and down the bridge screaming and swearing.Nyfiler saw one boat leave the ship containing only sailors.The ship had a terrible list to port, her decks being almost perpendicular, As she sank, the stern went up in the air with the boat Nyffler was in.The fog had cleared, but there was no signs of the Cromartyshire.The stern kept going up into the air until all of a sudden came a crack, and the ship went down.Nyfiler was carried under butcame to the surface in a minute, and all around him were women, children and men struggling in the water shouting for help.He looked for Eliza Niffengenner, but could not see her.He then got hold of a crowded raft, which soon upset, throwing all upon it into the water.He managed to get upon it again, however, with several others, and stayed on it until picked up by rescuers.Nyftler states that while on the raft he saw five women who were clinging to the very rope he had hold of, thrust to their death with fboathooks in the hands of Frenchmen on the raft.Nyffler is certain he can point out the men.He says they cut the rope, and although the women were screaming pitifully and one of them leaded for her life, they were all heart.essly pushed away.One of the women was the mother of August and John Burgi, who were among the survivors.Two others were German, and the other two were French women.Mr.Achard, a Frenchman, who has been some years in Baltimore, was on his way to Krance with his wife and two children.On the morning of the collision he put them in a boat amidships and went to get another boat for himself.Only one end of the boat he got into was cut loose, and the boat dipped when it descended, throwing the occupants into the water.Just at this time the \u201cBourgogne\u2019s funnels gave way and one of them fell directly across the boat in which Achard\u2019s wife and children had been placed, crushing it and knocking all the paksengers overboard.One of the funnel chains struck Mrs.Achard across the chest and literally tore the body asunder.Charles Liebra and others who were eye-witnesses, say it- was the most bloodcurdling sight they ever saw.Achard fell into the water when the Bourgogne sank, but managed to get hold of a raft, to which he clung for eight hours submerged to his armpits.Fle had $20,000 on his person at the time of the wreck, and it was saved with him.He is heartbroken and wretched on account of the loss of his wife and children, and presented the pitiful aspect of one who could not weep.Charge Against an Engineer.From the testimony of three ersons, Otto Zeiger, from New York; Mr.Ar.chard, of Baltimore, and Charles Liebra, chief eook of the Stafford Hotel, Philadelphia, it appears that the fourth engineer of La Bourgogne, who was saved, acted in the most brutal manner toward the passengers.The three men agreed in the statement that after the collision, when everyone was surrounding the boats, the fourth engineer said:\u2014\u201cDamn the passengers.Let them save themselves.We save ourselves first.\u201d He also said that if be had a revolver he would shoot the passengers.Mr.Liebra spoke in great praise of the captain of La Bourgogne, although that officer did not think the accident was serious and informed the saloon passengers that there was mo danger.This is thought to be the reason that none of the 75 first-class passengers were saved.On the voyage Liebra became acquainted with Yousouf, the wrestler, who was a passenger.After the collision, Liebra says he saw Yousouf struggling in a crowd of drowning passengers, beating them off with a stilletto and shoving them aside, trying to reach a boat; he failed, however, and went down.In conversation with Liebra before the wreck the wrestler had expressed himself | as ill-pleased with the treatment he had received in America.L.Tarlaud, of 164 West 36th street, New York, and M.Lucas, from, Northern France, the latter being a waiter on board La Bourgogne, each tell of being driven away from a boat containing Austrians armed with knives.While the Halifax wag entering Boston harbor this morning eight persons gave their names as witnesses to the fact that the Austrians used knives to keep people out of their boat.One of the crew, a steward, who spoke English well, declined to give his name, as he said it would be bad for him when be got back.He said he was in bed at the time of the accident.The shock awakened him and he ran up to the spar deck to his boat.There were twenty- five men appointed to each boat, but there were only seven or eight at his, which was the second mate\u2019s, No.7.The second mate was at his post and the boat was immediately got ready.There were about fifty passengers in this boat, including a lot of women.As the Bourgogne was sinking the boat caught and upset, throwing everyone into the water.He came up in a minute.He was saved two minutes after by a raft.There were lots of women and children screaming for help around, but he turned his head away, as he said he did not like to see these things.The young Frenchman from New Orleans said he could not say anything in praise of the erew of La Bourgogne.He did not see any of the officers after the accident except the captain, who was gesticulating on the bridge.Messrs.Zeicer and Karamer, second- cluss passengers, state that Victor Gen- diot and another sailor of La Bourgogne deserve great praise for their bravery in saving some passengers.hey called for volunteers to go from the Cromartyshire, and were the means of saving many others who would otherwise have perished.They were the only sailors who did anything to help the passengers.Remarkable escapes.Among the remarkable escapes were those of three stokers of La Bourgogne, who, although they were warned by other members of the crew not to talk about the accident, told of their experience.Louis Le Julien, Jean Al- vany and Francois Emillo are the stokers.They were in the stoke hole when the accident ocourred.Their story is as follows: ; The engines were stopped in the co! lision, and afterwards were put ahead in the hope of beaching the steamer on Sable Island.About five minutes after the crash the water began to come into the boiler room, and soon it rushed in in great volumes.The pumps were tried, but to no avail.The water put the fires out, and the engines stopped.The chief engineer gave orders to close the watertight doors, but even when they were closed, the water came in almost as fast as before.Then all hope was gone, and the engineer blew twice on the whistle, the signal for all to escape who could do so.There was a rush, but about fifteen men were drowned in the stoke holes and engine room.- The three men who succeeded in getting out found that all the boats had left, and they at once plunged into the sea They were picked up later on, and taken on board the Cromartyshire.NOTED PERSONS LOST.An Actress, a Oelebrated Engineer, Priests, a Seulptor, Yousouf, the \u201cTerrible Turk\u201d and Other Notables» New York, July 9.\u2014Among the dead of the Bourgogne were many well known persons, who were bound to Europe on pleasure and business, some on their honevmoons.} Among them was Mrs.J.B.Coleman, the wife of a well-known bookmaker, who was known on the stage as Berenice Wheeler, and was on her way to Paris to buy gowns for a new play in which she was to appear here in the autumn.She attracted attention in New York first last Septemuer, when she was seen in \u201cA Bachelor\u2019s Honeymoon.\u201d She was born 26 years ago in Kansas City, and made her debut on the stage about four years ago.One of her successes was in *'Chim- mie Fadden.\u201d in which she played Miss Fannie during the second season.She was regarded as an actress of great promise and in her brief career had already made a reputation.Her first husband, from whom she obtained a divorce in 1892, was Fdwin \\vheeler, à commercial traveller from Chicago.À little over a vear ago she met Mr.Coleman, who asked her to marry him.She promised to do so if a new play she was about to appear in was not a success, and when lack of support finally took it off the boards, she came to New York and was married.Sosa a Noted Enginéer.Pedro Jose Sosa was one of the best- known civil engineers of South America.He was born forty-five years «yo in Panama, of a distinguished family, He came to the United States when a boy -and entered the Rensselaer Polytechnic

Roman Catholic church, at Columbus avenue and One Hundred and Thirty-Fifth street, was taking his first vacation in thirty-five years when he boarded the ill-fated Bourgogne.The dream of his life had been a trip abroad, but, although his devoted parish- toners often urged him to take the much- needed rest, he had as often refused, declaring that his duty demanded that he stay with his church This year his ; parishioners visited him in a body, and insisted that he shoula take a trip to Europe.They enforced their affectionate arguments with the presentation of a handsome purse to de- ray his expenses.Father Kessler, who was 64 years old, was persuaded at last, believing that he could go to his old home in Germany without \u20ac ; ; sin, after serving his people in season and out of season for thirty-five years.He left in 18 place Fathers McMullen and Cussal and Instructed them to see to it that PS harm befell his people during his absence.Then he packed his modest effects and prepared

office with a friend, Thos, H.Botsford.He remained about the of.tice until the news came that all the first cabin passengers had perished.Then he broke down and went weeping to the street.At the foot of the steps he fell and lay there weeping until he was raised by a friend and assisted away.Mr.Whitney had instinctively felt that the trip would be fatal, but his physicians advised against delay.The \u201cTerrible Turk\u201d Gone.Ismael Yousouf was the much advertised \u201cTerrible Turk\u201d whose wrestling match with Ernest Roeber in Madison Square Garden a month ago was such a fiasco, Roeber winning on a foul after declining to come to grips.They met again at the Metropolitan Opera House and there was no decision, the Turk occupying hint self chiefly in resting upon Roeber\u2019s arched body.After travelling about the country meeting various wrestlers, You- souf came back here and made a wreck of Heraklides, the Terrible Greek, with conspicuous ease.His manager, W.A.Brady, says that the Turk sailed on Saturday on La Bourgogne.Yousouf was one of the most symmetrically massive specimens of humanity ever seen here.BOMBARDMENT AT LONG RANGE Sampson Will Train His Guns on Santiago To-day from the Outer Harbor.pres TROOPS PUSHING FORWARD Pa Every Night Sees Them Several Hundred Yards Closer in on the City.ferent BORROWE'S DEADLY SMALL GUN, rer Washington, July 9\u2014Santiago, accord- Ing to the latest information, will be bombarded first from outside the harbor, commencing at noon today.The bombardment will be opened most probably by the battleships Massachusetts, Indiana and Texas, and the armored cruisers New York and Brooklyn.If, as is now thought, the battleships Oregon and Iowa are to go to Guantana- Mo to coal, preparatory to their joining the eastern squadron, they may not be Present when the bombardment begins.The heavy guns are limited to a little more than one-half their maximum range, inasmuch as the maximum elevation on shipboard is seventeen degrees.Only these large guns can get anywhere near the city of Santiago, as the six-inch and smaller guns cannot be used effectually at the long range at which the firing will take place.These are the only guns that can be used effectively in reaching Santiago city from outside the harbor.Indiana, four 13- inch, eight 8-inch; Massachusetts, four 13-inch, eight 8-inch; Texas, two 12-inch, Brooklyn, eight 8-inch and New York, 81x 8-inch, It is freely suggested in official quarters that the principal object of the long range bombardment by the big guns will be to demoralize the enemy.If this does \u2018not prove successful the army under General Shafter will be signalled to aid in An attack on the Morro.With the reduction of this formidable fortification the work of grappling for the mines of the harbor will at once be undertaken by the small boats.The land forces will then occupy the fortifications, and the vessels of Admiral Sampon\u2019s fleet will go unmolested into the harbor.It is thought that then the story of the fall of Santiago will be a brief one.Some surprise is expressed here at the low estimate of 4,000 which Naval Constructor Hobson is reported this morning to have put upon the number of Spanish troops in Santiago.It is thought that this is certainly a mistake, as the official figures reckon upon at least 20,000 regular troops within the entrenchments.These do not include the half brigade of 4,000 men which are expected any moment to arrive from Mazanillo, under Col.Escario.Co-operating with the fleet and against these entrenchments will be the American forces, which at one point have moved up five hundred yards nearer than at the time of the last attack, It is supposed that as the brunt of the battle is to fall on the left, where a concentrated attack is to be made from land and sea on the east shore fortifications that General Shafter will have there some regular regiments, with Krag-Jorgensen rifles, instead of volunteers with the Springfields, that proved thoroughly ineffective the last time in the hands of the Michigan troops.While four light batteries and two heavy batteries, according to advices, are certainly now in position for today\u2019s battle, yet the matter of artillery has been one of no little concern to General Shafter.Six more light batterie have arrived at Santiago on transports from Tampa, but although two steam lighters have been bought and eight more have been chartered for use in landing guns and supplies, not one of them has up to this time arrived, and little hope seems to be held out as to the time of their arrival.Stubborn General Linares.General Linares\u2019 pride gradually is giving away under the mental strain he is subjected to, and the depressing influence of his painful wound.He also 18 being strongly urged to surrender by Genera Toral, next in rank, who is known to be anxious to yield to General Shafter.Tremendous pressure undoubtedly 13 being brought to bear on General Linares to induce him to surrender, but he 18 still stubborn, and wants to shirk the responsibility.Meanwhile General Shatter is pushing preparations for the final assault.Each day that passes makes our position stronger.The American lines present a very different appearance from that of two days ago.The reverse side of the ridges look like a settlement of cliff-dwellers, with their long lines of sheltered rifle pits, dug deep and covered with branches of trees and other materials.These pits rise in row after row along the slope of the hills, and at a distance look like the abiding places of some strange animals.The American trenches had been extended and improved when I passed along the lines yesterday morning.They were being equipped with port-holes, constructed of sand-bags.A dozen mortar batteries were being rpushed rapidly to completion.These are located just under cover of the ridge along the firing line, looking like so many black frogs about to take a leap over the ridge into the city.These batteries are within a range varying from 800 to 1.- 500 yards of the Spanish entrenchments.and can throw shells into any part of the city.Borrowe\u2019s Gelatine Gun.The gelatine gun, .in charge of Sergeant Borrowe, which was jammed while being hauled up the mountain, and could not be used in the early fighting about Santiago, is now in good condition for work.This gun, from which so much is expected, has been mounted in a snug pit on the ridge near San Juan blockhouse, and now is ready to get into action when the fighting is resumed.The few shells tired by Sergeant Borrowe last Saturday carried consternation into the Spanish ranks in the city.Consul Rams- den says that the first shell from tte dynamite gun, although it was fired high, almost totally destroyed a large building within a block of the British consulate.Admiral Sampson visited the front yesterday and had a lomg comsultation with the military authorities.Careful observations were taken from the hills with a view to enabling the fleet to take a position off Aguadores, and from there joining in the bombardment of Santiago.Pushing Closer In.His gunners will have to try a range of 8,000 yards from Aguadores to Santiago, but Admiral Sampson believes the heavi- er guns of the fleet can materially assist the army in bringing the Spanish general to terms of surrender.Not à night has passed without finding the American kine pushed gloser to the beleagured city.General Lawton\u2019s end division has pressed forward at least 500 yards, and when morning came the Span- ards were astonished to see a new line of American entrenchments only 400 yards {rom their own lines.By this move one of our regiments has obtained a position where it can entilade past the enemy\u2019s entrenchments, whidh Will be untenable after the firing begins.in fact, so strong has our positions become \u2018that the Spanish troops will be unable long to endure the fire which will be turned om them if the negotiations for the city\u2019s surrender fail.One day\u2019s fighting, it is confidently predicted, will end the campaign, and ome final assault 18 the one generally favored by brigade and regimental officers.The general condition of our men has improved much in the last two days, and the average health of all is good.The commissary trains are doing better work, and to rain has fallen for two days.Our men are well sheltered.Great improvements have been made in the roads, and bridges have been built across the mountain streams.Our heavy ar- lillery now can be moved without difficulty.Thousands of refugees still are huddling together about El Caney, although their condition has been much improved.Rations have been distributed among them, and nearly all of the women and children are sheltared in neighboring villages.Many are going to Siboney to relieve the overcrowding at ths point.Straggling has been effectually checked among the Cubans.Provost guards have orders to arrest all Cubans found awav from their commands after nightfall.This plan has had a salutary effect and results in less annoyance.ADMIRAL CAMARA ORDERED BACK.This May Cause the American Authori ties

be assigned to his command, as it is thought desirable to keep a strong force on this side of the water.The auxiliary cruiser Prairie, a aister ship of the Yankee, the Yosemite and the Dixie, are available for assignment to Commodore Watson\u2019s squadrons, and several officials are urging on the department thats commerce destroyers, Columbia and Minneapolis, more formidable than the auxiliary cruisers, and having great coal capacity, be ordered to accompany the eastern squadron.It is expected by Thursday next the fleet will be on its way across the Atlantic ,and in the meantime the authorities will determine what additional ships should be placed under Commodore Watson\u2019s orders.BRITISH CAPTAIN'S VIEWS One of England's Naval Officers Who Saw the Santiago Fight Says tre Americans Had Great Luck.With Admiral Sampson\u2019s fleet, off Santiago, Thursday, by the Herald despatch boat Somers N.Smith, to Port Antonio, Jamaica, July 7.\u2014Captain Pa- get, of the Britsh navy, who witnessed the destruction of Adiniral Cervera\u2019s fleet, declares that the Americans, in adv tion to every advantage, had phenomenal luck.There is no question, he asserts, that the Spanish are willing to fight, as they have demonstrated iu the determined stand made on land.But, Captain Paget holds, they Mve not stood in the right places.The American position on San Juan hill is perfect he says, and the Spaniards never can dislodge our troops.Captain Paget declares that when Cer- vera\u2019s fleet was preparing to leave Santiago harbor the fact was sent in advance to the American fleet, which had an op- portunity to get ready while Cervera\u2019s | ships were getting up sceam.Admiral Cervera, who speakes perfect English, seemed to be more impressed by the congratulations of the American fleet officers .an by any other incident connected with his crushing defeat.Ile was much gratitied and so expressed himself on several occasions before he was sent north with hig officers and men who had been taken prisoners.In his despatches to the Spanish authorities Cervera brought out this fact plainly.He seemed to be relieved by the thought that his part in the war had ended.\u2018Whether the Cristo- bal Colon can be raised will depend, I am told, on the rapidity with which the work is pressed.Just now the weather is glorious for the work .Spain Builds Forts.Gibraltar, July 9.\u2014The Ponta Carnero works ave progressing fairly.It is a strong rock point, practically commanding the Straits if fortified.Ab present nothing is completed.The six hundred sappers encamped there are engaged in excavating.Some blasting has been done, but no useful guns placed.Senor Ochando says the position 18 as strong as Gibraltar.Positions have been designated for the six guns brought there, w., I understand, will be placed in the trenches, but in case the Americans appear before they are completed temporary earthworks are being constructed with a large supply of sandbags, the theory being that the forts could severely punish any American fleet attempting to pass the Straits.Undoubtedly the position is a\u2019 formidable one, but it is quite too late to adequately fortify and equip it now.Senor pehando Js going to Granada and Ma- aga.There is an inexplicable môyument at the San Roque Fort.A baftalion of 1,050 men, six field pieces, 141 sappers and a

reproach his counsel for a want of painstaking devotion.When Judge Tellier resumed his seat at two o'clock yesterday afternoon a number of young ladies obtained permission to witness the proceedings.In reopening the address Mr.Bourgault said that he desired to place before the court certain legal principles regarding admission whi he hoped the judge would consider in his charges.First, a confession made by a person accused of a crime was not sufficient proof to incur a condemnation umless that confession were corroborated by circumstantial evidence.Second, an admission made by a prisoner to be used as evidence must be taken in its entirety.Guillemain had accused his aunt of being an accomplice.He had alse accused Tetrault of being the author of the deed.1f on these or similar admissions Guillemain 1s to be judged, those implicated in the admission must be judged accordingly.; Third, a confession made to a detective or a police officer who had passed himself off as a lawyer was inadmissable.These in his address, Mr.Bourgaull reviewed the evidence relating the movements of Mr.Laplante between his arrival at the station that evening and the murder.He placed the time of the murder between 0.51 and 7 o'clock, and agreed that Guil- lemain was not near the spot at that time.Bourgaull was about to retrace the different movements of Guillemain during that hour, 6 to 7 o'clock, but his address received.gnothes interruption.When Mr.Bou- regard again fainted.Tha court adjourned till nine o\u2019clock this mowning.It is confidently expected by everyone and especially by the weary jury that a verdict will be reached to-night.The address for the defence will have to be reviewed ovas.again for the benefit of the sick gentleman.The addresses will probably take up five hours.The judge\u2019s charge may also be auite lengthy, so that before a verdict is returned the jury have a big days work ahead of them.A Silly Letter Received.St.Hyacinthe, Que., July 9.\u2014(Special.)\u2014 The guards in charge of J.B.Guillemain, now on trial for the murder of his uncle, J.B.Laplante, were told to keep a constant watch for the safety of their prisoner.Mr.Sicotte, Sheriff of St.Hyacinthe, received the following anonymous letter this morning : SL Hyacinthe, July 8, 1898.\u201cTo the Sheriff of St.Hyacinthe: Dear 8ir,\u2014I have just discovered a plot.Two men arrived here to-day, and it is proposed to blow out the Guillemain\u2019s brains.(Signed) *'Vigilant.\u201d The letter 1s not taken really into serious consideration here, but it is regarded rather as a huge joke.Madam Laplante, wife of the victim, J.B.Laplante, who has been called so frequently to give evidence during ithe trial, received $384.50 from the sheriff yesterday, as the amount of witness fees due her.When the Sheriff was banding ner the mnney, she thanked him with tears in her eyes, saying that it was a God-send to her.The juror, Beauregard, is quite recovered this morning, and Mr.Bourgault is continuing his address.He was obliged to begin the greater part of it again this morning, so that no new features have been brought out, EXTENDING THE WINDSOR STATION.The Canadian Pacific Has Served Notice of Expropriation on Osborne Street Owners.The Canadian Pacific Railway authorities are taking steps to expropriate the property on the south side of Osborne street from the station to Bisson street, required for the extension of the station.Notice has just been served on the owners that at the expiry of ten days application would be made to the Minister of Railways and Canals for authority to expropriate the properties.\u2018I'he proprietor interested are Mrs.Dufort, who owns the block of tenements immediately adjoining the Osborne House, and Madame Rodier, who owns the dwell ing at the corner of Bisson street.The company has been seeking to purchase these properties for several years back, but were unable to come to terms with the owners.It is understood that the sum asked for the Dufort property was $125,000, and for the Rodier house about $50,000.These amounts were held to be \u2018excessive.The Osborne House is already owned by the company, the property having been acquired by them in 1893.It is now held under lease, which is terminable at the will of the company.© A Halifax Suicide.Halifax, N.S., July 9.\u2014(Special.)\u2014Misg Mary Watt, aged 30, belonging to Quebec, was drowned in Bedford Basin this afternoon.There is little doubt she committed suicide, as she had been deranged for a couple of months through overwork and grief on account of the trecent death of her mother.The Bar Examinations.Mr.J.Internoscia is back from Quebec, where he spent the past preparing for the bar examination.He expresses himself as utterly disgusted with it, and says it seems as if everybody was successful either be- ca use the questions were easy or because books and notes were freely used.One candidate was admitted who eopied from beginning to end the second paper of Mr.Internoscia, whilst he himself is said fo have failed on that very paper.This e considers, shows that either injustice done to particular individuals or that the papers are often corrected at random.SHERBROOKE'S FIGHT - FOR PROHIBITION.da Two Meetings Held Yesterday 8n Regular Organization

the convention at Montreal, in 1875, to the present day, also following the movement of the temperance party in securing the Scott Act in Prince Edward Island and Nova Scotia, pointing out that the plebiscite was distinct from all party pol- tics, and that the result of the polling would merely be an epression of the opposition by the people.À MILKMAN SUICIDES, Malcolm Ford Puts a Bullet Through

forgetful, and sometimes his elder brother went out to assist him on his round on account of this.Yesterday morning this brother went out with him.After returning to the house, the brother put the horse into the stable and the deceased went upstairs to his room.A short time afterwards witness\u2019 granddaughter heard a shot, and called to him.With the brother, mother and niece, witness went upstairs and found deceased in the bathroom on his knees, with his head resting on his breast and a bullet hole in the right side.The niece picked up the revolver off the floor.Witness had asked the

Prince of Wales and the Duke of Connaught in the Sixties, Sette DR, KIRWAN, OF QUEBEC, meme The Winner of Four Queen\u2019s Plates, Relates His Experiences With the Royal Princes.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 THE DUKE AS A PRIVATE SOLDIER rien Among the well-known men\u2014or at least the well-known men of a quarter of a century Or more ago\u2014at present in town is Dr.Kirwan, of Quebec, who has been staying in Montreal for some little time consulting medical advisors.The doctor, Who is some 70 years of age, has lived in Quebec all his life, and as, by order of the Canadian Government, he supplied the Prince of Wales with his horses during his visit to Canada in 1860; did a like uty for Prince Arthur (EL.R.H.the Duke of Connaught), and hag been a keen lover of horsetlesh from his youth up, the doctor, when in the humor, can relate many interesting reminiscences of those days.Ur.Kirwan is probably one of the best judges of horseflesh in the country, and knows more about the pedigrees of famous horses in general than almost any Man in Canada.Years ago he kept such well-known horses as M.1)., Augusta and J Taser, and in his day the genial doctor &8 Won no lesa than four Queen\u2019s Plates the names of the winners being Bard of Avon, Ivanhoe and Sir John.With Citadel he took first place in the first hurdle face ever run in Jerome Park.That was in 1866, and the same horse also subsequently won the big steeplechase at Paterson, N.J.The doctor\u2014who is a veterinary surgeon by Profession\u2014has handled many good horses\u2014in fact, the list would be\u2018 almost innumerable\u2014and not only can he name every horse that has won the Derby for the last fifty years, but he can give the Name of the owner and of the successful jockey, When H.R.H.the Prince of Wales came to Canada in 1880, Dr.Kirwan accompanied and came into close contact With the Prince during his seventy days\u2019 trip in this country, and he is never tired of speaking of the affability, courtesy and geniality which characterized the manner of His Royal Highness.The doctor had the contract from the Canadian Government to furnish the Prince with all the horses required for his use during his visit to this country, and he supplied him with twenty-eight horses through the whole trip.he Prince, who was in charge of the Duke of Newcastle, visited Quebec, Montreal, Kingston, Belleville, Hamilton, Toronto and other place in turn, and then proceeded to the United States.The horses furnished for His Royal Highness\u2019 use were afterwards sold by Dr.Kirwan, and they all brought good prices.To hear the doctor dilate upon the delight which he experienced when the Prince of Wales won the Derby with Persimmons does one\u2019s heart good When the Prince left Canada he presented Dr.Kirwan\u2014as a mark of esteor and of recognition for the many acts per formed by him which went to swell th: sum total of his happiness during his tour through the country\u2014with a handsome gold watch and chain, a gift which the doctor will cherish to his dying day.The years 1867-68 saw II.R.H.Prince Arthur, Duke of Connaught, in Canada ns an officer in the Rifle Brigade under Lord Alexander Russell, and Dr.Kirwan had the honor of teaching him to drive f tandem and a four-in-hand.But the Cupid's Lasso.Its the way of the èm world.Cu- 2d pid discov-

cheerful wife they will be more and more happy as the years go on.If she is weak and ailing and incapable there won\u2019t be much happiness for either of them.A woman makes a grave mistake who enters upon the obligations and trials of married life handicapped by physical weakness or disease.It is her duty to be in the best possible condition to support the duties of wifehood and motherhood.If every young woman who knows of or suspects any unhealthy condition in her physical make-up would seek competent professional advice she would save herself much future mortification and misery.Dr.R.V.Pierce, chief consulting physician of the Invalids\u2019 Hotel and Surgical Institute of Buffalo, N.Y., gladly answers confidential correspondence from women free of charge and gives

lessons he could drive as well as anybody.Dr.Kir- wan likes to tell of how the Duke of Connaught used to do his drill down in the barracks the same as any private soldier, and he also went out to Pigeon Hill to meet the Fenians.When the Duke was leaving Montreal he requested Dr.Kirwan to sell his horses, which he did at auction, and they brought good prices.The Duke very kindly presented Dr.Kirwan with an eight-day clock, Which led the genial doctor to remark, in a joking way, that the royal family was determined that he should khow the time of day.He was now possessed of a gold watch presented to him by the heir apparent, and à clock given him by Prince Arthur.Dr.Kirwan was chosen by the Government to pick out the horses for the Thirteenth Hussars when they came to Canada in 1866, at the time of the Fenian scare.The Hussars came out in the Great Eastern.In fact, the doctor did business in this line for all the regular troops, and when they were withdrawn from Montreal and Quebec, no one felt it more keenly than he.Dr.Kirwan also did business with Col.(now General Lord) Wolseley, and he would like to see him the next Governor-General of Canada, DREW ANGLO- SAXONS TOGETHER In the Far East the British and Americans Are as One People, prnactativncen BURIAL OF CAPT.GRIDLEY of the Olympic Laid to Rest in Far Away Japan.pape » SPEECH BY AN ENGLISHMAN.retenue New York, July 8.\u2014A special to the Commercial Advertiser from Yokohama says: There was no thought of race or nationality among tae English-speaking people of Yokohama who met to do honor to the memory of gallant Capt.Gridley of the Olympia, whose body was brought here from Kobe on the P.and O.steamer Coptic.The Stars and Stripes at half mast over the American Consulate looked not one whit more disconsolate than did the Union Jack in a similar po- gition on the masts of the British ships in the harbor.The sadness of the situation has cemented the friendliness which has always existed between Americans and Englishmen in the Far East, where they seen naturally to gravitate toward cach other.It was originally decided to hold the funeral ceyemonies on the Coptic, but it was finauy determined that the most suitable piace would be the Union Church and that &uerward the body should bè cremated.Long before 11 o\u2019clock the hour for the ceremony, & :a1ge number of spectators and mourners had assembled at the church, and etood awaiting tlie ar vival of the body.It waa a curious scene, and an ämpressive one.Several vig steamers lay alongside the pier, and he business of 'oading and unloading was joing on noisily, Gangs of coolies were singing and shouting over their work, loaded trollies passed up and down the pier, snorung stesm launches touched at end put off from the landing stage, and everything with the exception of the pile of wreaths and the black coats and solemn looks of the mourners, was of the ordinary workaday wonld\u2014a vivid contrast which intensified the solemnity of the sad occasion.Boat Lowered From Coptic.Presently, a boat, with the coffin on board it, was lowered from the Coptic, snd a steam launch, propelled scdately at quarter speed, towed it to the landing stage.The coffin wae covered with the naval pall of blue, with white stars, and behind it was geatea Captin Sealbv, R.N.R., commander of the Coptic.The Japanese atendants vh the launch were babited in black kimenos, and there were «ix tars from the Raleigh, ths Boston.the Concord and the Baltimore to act as bearers.Reverently the remains of the gallant seaman were debarked and, as a Japanese band played the mournful strains of Chwp- in\u2019a Marche Funebre, the cortege was formed.A large party of marines from HI.J.M.gunboat Hei Yen, acted as escort.It would be impossible to give a list of all who were present to pay the last tri- ute of respect; .would include nearly all of the better-known residents of Yoxo- hama, It was scme little ime, so long was the train of mourners, before the church\u2014 which had meanwhile been half filled by congregation consisting chiefly of ladies\u2014 was reached.By the time those who had joined in the procession had also entered the acommodation afforded by the hitle puilding was taxed to the utmost, Some kndly hands had busied themselves in making the appearance of the interior in harmony with the solemnity of the occasion.Above the organ, at which T.J.Griflin officiated, was draped a huge American flag, and the front of the pulpit was made beautiful with fuchsias and other flowers and an abundance of greenery while the flag under which the dead man fought and died appeated again proudly here.All round were hung numbers of lovely wreaths, sent by the admirers of the dead seaman, which it had been found impossible to place upon the coffin the left of the chancel there wus another mass of white flowers and delicate foliage tied with a white silk ribbon bearing the words, \u201cTo the brave

tribute to the memory of our departed friend and hero of our navy.All whose pleasure it was to know Capt.Gridley, as mamy of us knew him, can bear testimony to his val ued services to his country uring our Civil War, lately surpassed by his gallant and distinguished service as Captain of the Olympia in the great sea fight at Manila, That he should have survived the battles of our Civil War, and also should have escaped unscathed the greatest ngval battle in modern times, in which he was engaged, to be laid low by disease so soon after, seems strange to us.But the ways of Providence are inscrutable.In grief we are here to pay our last tribute to our departed friend, whose name and form will ever be green in our memories and honored by the nation he served so well.Among the naval heroes who fought the battle at Manila, the name of Capt.Gridley, with that of the Admiral and other heroic men, will appear, and will ever be commemorated in ong and in the history of the

this morning\u2019s session of the Ontario Medical Council, Dr.Spence moved that a committee be appointed to deal with the abuse of hospital privileges and lodge practice.1t was argued that by these means the revenus of physicians was seriously cut into.Doctors Thorburn, Rogers and others claimed that the resolution was out of order, as the council had no power to deal with such matters.Dr.Sangster said that the council should deal with such question.\u2018Through drug- ists, patent medicines, lodge practice and ree hospital treatment the medical profession was in a starved or semi-starved CGNusuion and its members were reduced to such a condition that they could not live honorably and had to adept methods which they themselves confessed were not honorable.Several members took exception to Dr.Sangeter\u2019s utterances.The resolution was finally declared out order.Dr.J.L.Bray, Dr.Campbell and Dr.V.H.Moore, were elected the members of the uiscipline committee.Dr.Rogers made a resolution that in 1902, four years hence, the degree of be made the standard for medical matriculation.He wanted the culture of the members of the profession generally increased.At present the general education of the members of the profession was not superior to that of a merchant\u2019s clerk.The resolution was opposed by all, save two members of the council and finally withdrew.Chilian Warship O'Higging.Editor of The Herald: Sir,\u2014~Would you kindly inform me through the columns of your valuable ahd interesting journal of the name and rank of the person

Enterprises in Which Electricity Figures.pe A MOST ATTRACTIVE CITY, \u2014\u2014 Mention of the Companies at Present Bringing Power to the City From Near-by Waterfalls, ares permet THE CITY'S FUTURE ELECTRICALLY peer Electrically, Montrear 1s beyond doubt the most attractive city in the Dominion, says the Canadian Electrical News.It is fitting perhaps, that reference should first be made to the electric railways, of which there are three distinct systems, the Montreal Street Railway, Montreal Park and Island Railway, and Montreal Belt Line Railway.Six years ago the Montreal Street Railway was changed to electric traction, and the company have now in opuration over eighty miles of road.The rolling stock consists of nearly 300 motors and trailers.\"I'he power house on William Street is 290 x 233 feet.In the engine and dynamo room are located twelve Edison generators of 200 k.w.capacity each, six mul- tipolar generators of 300 k.w.capacity, and a 4,500 h.p.Laurie engine installed last summer.This engine replaced six Corliss compound engines f 600 h.p.each.An interesting feature of this installation js the switchboard, which is 60 feet long and 11 feet high, constructed of terra cot- ta lumber.The entire equipment is very complete and interesting.The offices of the company are at the corner of Craig Btreet and Place d\u2019Armes, Mr.F.L.Wanklyn, being general manager.The Montrea! Park and Island Railway affords the means of visiting the many beautiful suburbs of Montreal, passing, as it does, through a most picturesque country\u2026 The power station of the company 1s located at Mile End, although it is intended to build a larger generating station when all the proposed lines of the company have been completed.Mr.Chas.A.E.Carr is general manager.The system of the Montreal Belt Lfne Railway has recentlv been put in operation, and it comprises thirteen miles of track.It is intended to serve the lower part of Montreal Island.The line leaves the Canadian Pacitic Railway at Hoche- laga, passes through the municipalities ot Maisonneuve, Longue Pointe and Point aux Trembles, and, following the course of the St.Lawrence river, reaches Bout d\u2019Isle.At this point the cars are econ- nected by a steam ferry with the town of Charlemagne and other points.The power house is built near the centre of the line, and contains two C.G.E.generators of 200 to_325 kilowatt, three Goldie & McCulloch compound condensing Wheel- ock engines, aggregating 700 h.p., with necessary boilers and other equipment.The cars comprise nine open and four closed, in addition to an electric freight jocomotive.The manager of the road 1s Mr.J.P.Mullarky.Mr.John Rowley is superintendent, Mr.Robert Welsford, engineer, and Mr.C.H.Wright, son ot Mr.A.A.Wright, of Renfrew, elec trician.So much for the electric railway sys tems.Turning to another branch of the electrical industry, light and power, we find wituin the city of Montreal and in its immediate vicinity the two great hy- draulic-electric plants of the Chambly Manufacturing Company and the Lachine Rapids Hydraulic and Land Company.Chambly is the headquarters of one of the most comprehensive power and transmission schemes yet undertaken on the continent, and which 18 now nearing completion.The source of power is a long concrete dam and generating station on tbe Richelieu river at the village of that name, 25 miles distant from Montreal.It is intended to transmit 20,000 horse power to the city for incandescent and | arc light and direct current motor service, the main power transmission line to end in the electric light station of the Royal Electric Company, by whom the work is being carried out, From early days there was a wooden dam between Richelieu village on the one side of the river and Chambly on the other, This has been replaced by a new structure, which is one of the finest examples of hydraulic engineering on the continent.lt consists of a massive con- rrete dam 2,000 teet long, in which, as an integral part, is built the power house.he dam consists of three portions, two of which run perpendicularly across the course al the river, while the third and middle part is parallel with it.In the lower third of thie dam is built the power house, a structure of steel beams and brick walls, 308 x 51 feet.I'he upper level will contain the switchboard, controll ing devices and offices.There will be 32 TREMBLED LIKE A LEAF A young lady prostrated with nervousness and heart trouble restored to perfect health by MILBURN\u2019S HEART AND NERVE PILLS.\"THERE are too many pale faces, palpitating hearts, weak, nervous, run down constitutions among the young women of this generation.More nerve force, more rich blood, more vital energy for the heart is what they need, and Milburn\u2019s Heart and Nerve Pids is the very remedy that meets all the requirements necessary to give them bounding health.\u201cTo prove these statements we give an account of her daughter\u2019s cure, supplied us by Mrs.Jas.Scott, 221 Emerald Street, Hamilton, Ont.: ¢ Five years ago my daughter had a severe spell of sickness and has been an invalid ever since.She had no strength and could not sleep at night, often having to sit in a rocking chair all night on account of the shortness of breath.She suffered greatly with pains in the heart as well as palpitation, and wag very nervous and easily startled, so much so that any noise or excitement would make her tremble like a leaf.\u2018She commenced taking Milburn\u2019s Heart and Nerve Pills and has now taken three boxes in all.Constant improvement has been the record of this medicine in her case.She finds no difficulty in walking down town and back, something she was unable to do for many months.She sleeps well, eats well and is not troubled with the distressing shortness of breath which afflicted her before she took the pills.Iam thankful we tried this valuable medicine ag the results in my daughter\u2019s case have been gratifying in the highest degree.\u201d (Sgd.) Mrs Jas.ScoTT.Milburn\u2019s Heart and Nerve Pills are 50c.& box or 3 boxes for 81.25, at all druggists.T.Milburn & Co., Toronto, Ont.One Laxa-Liver Pill every night for 30 days will cura constipation.Price 250.turbines, each 46 inches in diameter and.of 660 h.p.capacity, making a total of over 21,000 h.p.Each gang of four tur bines wiu be directly connected to a 2, 000 kw.\u201cS.K.C.\u201d generator, giving two phase current at 60 cycles per second and generating 12,500 volts.They are of the induction type, and the insulation is ne- cessaruy most massive and substantial.Among the many interesting features of this plant is the novel method of carrying the wires over the new Victoria bridge.The works of the Lachine Rapids Hy- draulice & Land Company were completed in the fall of last year.As implied by the name, the water of the Lachine rapids is utilized.The hydraulic machinery, when all is installed, will consist of 72 Victor wheels of 300 h.p., and the electrical installation of twelve 750 k.w.OC.G.k.three phase generators, direct connected to six water wheels and operating at 4,400 volts at 175 revolutions.The company practically have four stations, \u2018Their sub-station at the corner of McCord and Seminary Streets, and the Standard Light and Power Company\u2019s station both obtain power from the rapids, being equipped with direct current apparatus driven by synchronous motors.The substation of the Citizen\u2019s Light and Power Company was destroyed by fire a few months ago, but is now being rebuilt.The Lachine Company also supply power to the Temple Electric Company, in which they have a controlling interest.À fine new switchboard has rècently been purchased.It is made of blue Vermont marble, with specially designed switches.The lighting and power stations of the Royal Eleciric Company have been entirely reconstructed on the most improved methods within the last two years.Capt.Moore's Little Joke.A gentleman named Smith, who conducts the popular \u201cTired at Random\u201d column in the Chicago Daily Record, is responsible for this story: Even in these days angels\u2014or their equivalent\u2014are entertained unawares.Last week a Park Ridge man wanted to buy a horse for his family\u2019s use, and he put himself in the hands of Capt.Moore, of the police force of the suburb.The capfain had a little horse of his own which he offered, but the price was so ridiculously low that the prospective purchaser laughingly withdrew.The captain busied himself looking for a better thing.A few days later he met the man who went- ed the horse and remarked * \u201cSay, there's a fellow named Murpuy living down the macadamized road who has a pretty nice thing if he\u2019ll part with \u201cPart with it?Of course he will.Everything in this world has its price.1f it\u2019s a good thing, you needn\u2019t be afraid but that I'll be able to buy it of him.\u201cWell, I don\u2019t know.He seems to think a lot of the horse.\u201d \u201cThat\u2019s all bluff.I've heard of those people who have women and children out in the stable crying whenever some one comes along to buy a nag.Let's go and see this animal.\u201d ; oo Capt.Moore, with a grim smile in mems- ory of his own poor little snubbed and spurned mare, conducted the buyer to Murphy\u2019s place.\u201cWe'd like to see ths horse,\u201d he said.Co The stableman led them inside the barn and submitted a handsome-looking creature to their view.\u201cLooks all Fight, but I can see at a glance he\u2019s wind-foundered,\u201d the purchaser whispered to the captain.Then to the other fellow: \u201cHow much does he ask foi the skate?\u201d \u201cJ think thirty-five thousand,\u201d was the calm reply.\u201cThirty-five dollars?Well, he\u2019s about worth that, I guess.T\u2019ll take\u2014\u2014\" \u201cHe said $35,000, not $35.And I don\u2019t know that he cares to sell even at that, for he has the whole season arranged for him.\u2019 The purchaser\u2019s jaw fell.\u201cThirsy-five thousand! talking about?\u2019 he cried.\u201cThat horse.Talking about that horse, Star Pointer.\u201d The man who had detected sure signs of wind-founder in the greatest horse of the age looked about him, desiring to say something to Captain Moore, but the police force was gone.And in the next few minutes that Park Ridge dweller learned that for truth his little town was the permanent home of the grandest pacer of them all.He also came to the conclusion that Captain Moore had taken the meanest revenge any disappointed man can conceive.What are you Dooley on the War.(Chicago Journal.) \u201cWell,\u201d said Mr.Hennessey, in tones of chastened joy, \u2018\u2018Dewey didn\u2019t do a thing to thim.I hope th\u2019 poor la\u2019ad isn\u2019t cooped up there in Minneapolis.\u201d \u2018\u201cNivir tear,\u201d said Mr.Dooley, \u201cCousin George is all right.\u201d \u2018\u2018Cousin George?\u2019 Mr.Hennessey exclaim-

will be held In compliance with the request contained in the letter of Mr.Philippe Pepin and others will afford an opportunity for those organizations which have been working and agitating for municipal reform to prove their interest in a very practical manner.It is just such irregularities as are alleged in this letter to have been practised by Superintendent Laforest and those intimately associated with him in the administration of the Water Department, that municipal reformers should be ready to strike at.Good men tnd clean edministration are not one whit less important in municipal govern- nient than are good laws.The accusation made by the ex-employecs of the Water Department indicate a condition of affairs which would cripple the administration of this important service, entail a heavy annual loss and exert an unhealthy influence upon every other civic department.Lt is charged that material belonging to the city was taken from the city\u2019s shops and put, by Nuperintendent La- forest, to private uses; that paint was temoved from the shops and used in improving the appearance of Mr.Laforest\u2019s3 buildings in De Lorimier Avenue; that tools and material were sent from the city shops to Ste.Agathe to be used in constructing a waterworks plant in which Mr.Laforest is interested; that public money was directed to the pockets of those not entitled to it; and that employes who had been many years in the service of the city were dismissed to make room for the friends of the aldermen and officials.This is the calendar of charges as it now stands, but it ie no secret that as the enquiry proceeds, uther acousations will be added to it.If grave irregularities continued during the length of time indicated by Mr.Pepin\u2019s letter, 1t is a reasonable MPerence that Mr.Laforest did not keep them ull hidden from those who were, for the time, clothed with authority over him and his department.Some of the charges that will be laid before the enquiry closes will, it is said, involve aldermen, ex-alder- men, and probably other very prominent persons.Those who \u2018have seen a demonstration of the power of experienced \u201cwire-pullers\u201d can comceive of the infiu- ences that will be used to prevent an investigation that threatens to do more than disclose a few indiscretions.If tlhe uction of the five menfvho have laid the charges is in any sense justified by facts, they have undertaken a heavy task.Tt will not be easy for them to combat those who may be interested in preventing the court or committee of enquiry from disclosing the whole truth.In a struggle of this description the five men will be fighting the fight of every ratepayer and of every citizen interested in good government.They should be enabled to employ a good lawyer to conduct their side of the investigation.This they should lie assisted to do by those who are de ~irous of seeing a better era inaugurated ut the City Hall.By raising a fund for this purpose, the Good Government Association, the Ratepayers\u2019 Association, and the Citizens\u2019 League would be promoting, it appears to us, the ainis and objects of their organizations and would be doing a service to the city.Clearly the investigation should go on, and in such vigorous and thorough fashion as will lay bare the Water Works branch of the civic administration.By what we learn of this branch we will all be in a better position to judge what kind of government we have in the others.A VALUABLE REPORT.In view of the fact that Hon.Mr.I'isher, Minister of Agriculture, and Mr.J.W.Robertson, Commissioner of Agriculture and Dairying, are now in England studying the conditions of the various local markets for such farm products as Canada has for export, additional inter- es attaches to the annual report Mr.Robertson has just issued.Having regard to the immense amount of information given on a great variety of subjects, it well deserves the comment passed upon it by Farming, that \u201cit is one of the most valuable and complete reports ever issued by the department.\u201d The introduction deals with the necessity for and advantages of co-operation, and the means that have been taken to secure it.There is a summary of the work done by travelling dairies, dairy schools and dairy stations in different part of the Dominion.Complete information is given concerning the practice of winter butter-making, the raising and marketing of cattle, sheep, hogs, poultry and eggs, the packing and marketing of perishable fruits, a vast amount of precise information of the greatest value being given in each case.What is perhaps most important is the section devoted to the cold storage service, in which full instructions and designs are furnished, so that the local mechanics may be enabled to construct the most modern appliances for the preservation of perishable foods.The report ought to be in the hands of every progressive farmer and commission merchant in the country, for the information it contains is of a kind that can readily, be {urned into dollars and cents.\u2018I'he basis upon which the departments of agriculture for the Dominion and the provinces are constituted is the Aassump- (ion that the burdens of the farming community can be lightened and their profits increased at the same time.The farmers of the Dominion have never been accused of lack of indutry; on the contrary, the \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 light to dark.The limit to which industrious toilers of the soil can increase their prosperity by mere bodily toil has long ago been reached; departments of agriculture were inaugurated with the idea that \u201cincreasing prosperity must come in some other way tham through harder work by the farmer.\u201d Co-operation was soon recognized as being of the most urgent necessity.The farmers could not maintain creameries and cheese factories of their own,but they could organize and support one or more in a district.In some cases even this much could not be done, and in Prince Edward [sland, Manitoba and the Northwest the Government started the creameries, and withdrew when they were well established.Farmers and creamery owners could not very well organize a cold storage system, so the Government got it under way for them, and the result has been most gratifying.Beyond this the aims of the Government have been principally three\u2014to obtain information not before available which might be of service to the farming community; to make the farmers aware of the most improved methods, conclusions as to which could only be reached individually with great difficulty, if at all; and finally to devise means for enabling the producers to dispose of their product speedily and at the minimum of loss.All this is being dene, and we see the effect of it in the enormous increase in the cheese and butter industries and in many other directions.The various agricultural departments have, as a rule, worked with a careful regard for cause and effect.If they have striven to produce exportable goods of a uniform quality and appearance, it is because they first ascertained that in the British market, the great hope of the Ca nadian producer, these tlings were regarded as essential.It was no light task to produce this unformity, but to a very large extent it has been done.The British are good customers, but they are discriminating buyers.They have the world to choose from and can demand the best.Last year they imported $633,252,283 of food products, perhaps ten per cent.of which came from Canada.Their bill for meats alone was nearly 186 millions.Imported cheese cost them $28,047,857, of which we sent rather more than our share.For butter they paid $77,462,300, our proportion being relatively insignificant, although it amounted to the respectable total of $2,164,995, four times what it was in 1895.It looks as though this year there would be another four-fold increase; even that would be only a beginning.In 1897 the tidy sum of $21,208,088 was paid out for eggs, Canada getting $944,123.How to increase all these proportions is the substance of Mr.Robertson\u2019s very excellent report, and the object of the inquiries now being made by the Minister of Agriculture.Thirty or forty millions more per annum would be very acceptable to Canada, and it may be believed that the British public would, other things being equal, be glad that it skould come here.It is satisfactory to know that the neces- gary efforts are being made.CONCERNING THE HORSE.The final judgment on the horse is summed up in the written declaration of almost every schoolboy that it is \u2018\u2018a noble animal.\u201d - The Herald illustrated supplement to-day contains some fine portraits of horses which illustrate this guality of nobility.In an address delivered a few months ago, Lord Rosebery gave an excellent definition of what love of horses meant to him, and the same we believe may be said of most of those who have been recognized as the foremost patrons of the turf.This aim is not that of the gambler, who stakes his money in the expectation of getting rich without working.It is that \u201cthe horse of the century\u2019 may be reared and owned by one of them, winning in his name those races which prove its superiority.If the horse be a noble animal, this is a not unworthy ambition.Lord Rosebery himself estimated the winning of the Derby almost as high as obtaining the premiership, and Lord Derby, while he found it not difii- cult to become premier, never succeeded in winning the great race and was much downcast by his failures.It is related of Meissonier that he regarded the late Leland Stanford as being merely an objectionable rich man until he discovered that he had been for many years a devoted student of the ways of horses.Learning this, he was anxious to paint the portrait which a few moments previously he had declined.In all ages the horse has been more or less of a friend and companion to man, and it would be surprising if even the most rigid opponent of horse- racing did not, in reading the story of \u201cBen-Hur,\u201d experience that sense of exaltation which seems to come upon ail who witness such contests of speed and endurance as are there described.Just as all the world loathes a snake, all the world loves a good horse.THE CITY COUNCIL AND THE HARBOR.The Finance Committee yesterday wisely decided to recommend to the City Council that when the harbor improvements are completed in accordance with the plan agreed upon between the Government and the commissioners the city should agree to complete its share of the improvement in a way that will be in keeping with the rest of the work.This is an important forward movement, and we trust, furnishes an indication that the City Council will not stand in the way of having the work begun at once.Ald.Rainville\u2019s contentions as to the amount of money the city is at liberty to spend may or may not bs right, but it is quite certain that if the plan agreed upon is regarded as good there will be no difficulty in getting the money that may be necessary to pay for the city\u2019s ghare.It was not to be expected that things should remain in precisely the position they were in when the first plans were made four or five years ago, and if plan 12a alters the city\u2019s part of the obligation there need be no great trouble on the score of getting the money.Mr.St.George, the City Surveyor, has been conatantly consulted in completing the present plans, so that there is every reason to believe the vity\u2019s part of the work has been properly adjusted.Members of tue council will, no doubt, bear in mind that the need for improvement is urgent, not only because of the better prospects for the city when the port is made more important but because of the actual Insens entailed upen all.the merchants aleng «.\u2018cont through the | ignorance, on the other.| Gilhoo!y, all of Smiths Falls; H.J houses were put to hundreds of dollars\u2019 expense and to a great deal of inconvenience by the fear of floods.Their goods were all moved out of the cellars and in many cases even off the first floor.and then back again when the danger was past.This involved a charge from which the business community ought to be relieved at the earliest opportunity.If plan 12a is acceptable to the city, and there is every reason to believe it is so, the council cannot unnecessarily retard the commencement of work without being chargeable with serving the ends of those who oppose the aevelopment of the port.We believe there are no aldermen willing to accept such responsibility.PLEBISCITE PROBABILITIES.We publish to-day the result of the inquiries made at Three Rivers by The Herald\u2019s staff correspondent regarding.the sentiment of the people of this province on the\u2019 prohibition question.The informationi furnished in these letters has not, hitherto, been encouraging to the advocates of prohibition, and it is doubtful if even the most sanguine will derive much consolation from Mr.Duplessis\u2019 suggestion of a possihle majority for the suppression of the liquor trattic, süch majority to be the result of blind partizan- ship on one side and equally blind par- tizanship, combined with stupidity and In five dioceses visited so far, it has been evident that the Roman Catholie clergy do not favor prohibition, most of them being opposed to its principle and all believing it inexpedient.There seems alsg to be lukewarmness among the English element, among whom the prohibitionists look for most support; but inquiries in the farger English centres will likely alter this somewhat.] CWA.BULLETIN.General Suspensions Made, Several Raised and Other Official Acts That

Returns From a Satisfactory Tour of Inspection.Manager Tait, Superintendent Spencer and General Passenger Agent Ussher have returned to Montreal after an official.jaunt over the new Canadian Pacific short line between Montreal and Ottawa.The railway officials express general satisfaction with the road, for which appropriate rolling stocic has been prepared.The completion of the Short Line has been looked forward to for months past by the travelling public, as destined to shorten to a very considerable extent the run between the commercial and political capitals of Canada.The exact distance from Windsor station, Montreal, over the naw line to the terminus in the capital city of the Dominion will be 111% miles, and the time from city to city will be a good deg! less than by the main line of the Canedian Pacific on the north side of the Ottawa.After leaving Vaudreuil, the line runs through Como, Hudson, Rigaud, St.Eugene, Vankleek Hill, Caledonia Springs Alfred, Plantaganet, where the road crosses the Nation River a fine bridge, The Brook, Pendleton, eonard, Navan and Blackburn, the trains running into the Ottawa Central atation, alreaey located, as all visitors to Ottawa have seen, on.the banks of the Rideau Canal, near the Sapper's bridge, in the vicinity of wne Russell Hause.Mr- Tait reports that the stations are completed, and as soon as some more bal- Jesting is done, the new road will be opened to traffic.The track, which has been most carelilly laid, is composed of from 73 to 80 pound ralls, and the general equipment of the entire line will be perfect in every respect.Where ballasting ig entirely completed, trains can be run at the highest rate of speed, and it is expected that a highly perfected roadbed will be ready for the passing of tralns at an early period next month.It is the present intention of the company to use the new line for passenger traffic between Ottawa and Montreal and intervening stations, but the question of running through {rains to the Coast over this new section has not been taken {into consideration.: The C.P.R, will run at least two pas- songer trains daily each way from Montreal to Ottawa, and if local trains are requirsd they will, of course, be put on as the requirements of the traffic demand it.The line is a partioularly straight one, and except near Hudson and on the older portions of the line, there is not a curve exceeding half a degree.As for the grades, there are very few exceeding forty feet to the mile.W.J.PALMER, Practical Watchmaker and Jeweller, 372 ST.ANTOINE STREET.Fine Watch Repairing SAUTERNE WINE

held on Thursday evening reports of the progress of the work of organization were received from the St.Antoine, St.Lawrence, Westmount, Point St.Charles, St.James, St.Mary\u2019s, St.Henri and Ste.Cunegonde divisions, and arrangements were made for the organization of the remaining districts of she city.Mr.W.W.Buchnan, of Hamilton, Ont, who was present, addressed the meeting and described the present attitude of Ontario as encouraging.fn his opinion the fight throughout the country would be much fiercer than in any of the Provincial plebiscite campaigns.The great bulk of temperance addresses and literature in the past had possessed too much of the elements of emotion and gush, and many good folk had deemed they were temperance people because they were not actively opposed do the movement.It would be necessary to change all this.Their appeals should be based on reason and good sense, and illustrated by solid facts and incontestable figures.The outlook on whole was a bright one, but the reform force should be at it every day, and the work pushed on as fast and as early as possible.Rev.G.(i.Huxtable, who presided at the meeting of the plebiscite campaign committee for the eastern section of the city, in the Kast End Methodist Church on Thursday evening, stated that, as the plebiscite vote would very robably be taken during the latter part of September, sub-committees should be formed at once.This was done, and the committees are expected to be out canvassing during the coming week.The general working committee of the district will meet on Thursday evenings, the meetings to be held con- tecutively in the several churches and mis- Slons co-operating in the work.The next meeting will be in Taylor Presbyterian Church.Rev.J.F.Renaud, of St.Thomas \u201church, was appointed representative to the central committee.Rev.Mr.Huxtable will preach a prolsi- hition sermon in the East End Methodist Church to-morrow evening, the collection: to be devoted to the campaign

Little Joke, the meeting of Railwa held in Toronto this week, Li Mons, Hingston made some remarks upon the Varieties and Vagaries of Shocks.\u201d The World refers to them as follows: \u2014 Sir William Hingston of Montreal, hap 1- some, and to all intents youthful as ever, believed that hemorrhage had nothing to do with shock, and hoped that the pathol ogist would by means of the microscope he able to soon draw a line between the two.Ad to treatment, common sense said that rest, quiet and encouragement were of vast import.To illustrate the influence of the mind over the body, Sir William told a humorous story.He was called outside of Montreal to see a lady patient who after a railway shock had lain in bed four years unable to move herself.\u201cT examined her,\u201d went on Sir William, \u201cand found there was nothing the matter physically.I told her father, who is an artisan, what I thought, and that 1 believed I could thoroughly cure her if she was brought up to Montreal.= He \u2018looked \u2018me all over, and then remarked:\u2014 \u201clf I hadn\u2019t been told that you were a good doctor, I would have said you were the \u2014\u2014\u2014 fool I have ever seen in my life.\u201d (Laughter.) He paid me, however, and then said now I have done my part, do yours.The lady came to Montreal, and afer a good frightening was walking in twenty minutes, and in a week was able to go out shopping.(Laughter.)

and otchiig upon glasé was added to the ornamental arts.One day nearly three hundred years ago a poor optician was working in his shop in the town of Middedurg, in the Netherlands, his children helping him or amusing them- solves with the tools and objects lying about, when suddenly his little girl exclaimed: \u201cOH, papa, see how near the steeple comes!\u201d Anxious to learn the cause of the child\u2019s amazement, he turned towards her, and saw that she was looking through two lenses, one held close to her eye, the other at arm\u2019s length; and calling her to his side, he noticed that the eye lens was plano-concave, while the other was plano-convex.Taking the two glasses, he repeated his daughter's experiment, and soon discovered that she had chanced to hold the lenses at the proper focus, thus producing the wonderful effect that she observed.is quick wit saw in this a wonderful discovery, and he at once set about making use of his new knowledge of lenses.Ere long he had fashioned a tube of pasteboard, in which he set the glasses at their proper focus, and so the telescope was {nvented._ Among - the manv traditions concerning william Lee ahd the stocking-frame 1s one that he was expelled from the university for marrying, and that, being very poor, his wife was obliged to contribute towards the housekeeping by knitting.It was while watching the motion of her fingers that he concelved how to imitate those movements by a machine.\u201cArkwright accidentally derived the idea of spinninig by rollers from seeing a red-hot par elongated by being passed between two ollers.Forbe ordinary practice of taking a bath gofved for Archimedes the question of how to test the purity of the gold in Hiero's crown.He observed that when he stepped into a full bath the quantity of water which of pure gold and silver, in certain known proportions, he was able to compute the real quantity of each metal in the crown, and thus discovered the fraud that had been practiced on the king, to whom he hurried, exclaiming, \u2018Eureka! Eureka!\u2019 (I have found it! I have found it!\"\u2019) an exclamation that has ever since been used to express exultation over a discovery.Coming down now to our own time, the account of the discovery of saccharine, one of the numerous by-products of the gas- maker\u2019s refuse, whose sweetness is three hundred times more intense than that of cane sugar, reads almost like a romance.Dr.Fahlberg had entereû the Johns Hop- king University in America in order to devote himself exclusively to a study of the chemistry of coal-tar derivatives.Some months had passed, when one evening at tea-time he detected an intensely swect flavor upon his bread and butter.He traced the sweetness to his fingers, to his hands, and to his coat-sleeves: and it dawned upon him that it must have been derived from one of the new compounds which he had that day succeeded in producing.He promptly returned to fils laboratory and tasted the contents of every vessel with which he had been working.His idea was correct.One of his beakers contained the sweet material._Prof.Roentgen came upon his marvellous X-rays\u2014which have opened out new fields of research in physical science, besides be- ! ing of far-reaching practical utility in surgery and other departments\u2014quite by chance.He was experimenting in the dark with a Crookes vacuum tube, which was covered With some sort of cloth.À strong electric current was passed through it, while close by was eome prepared photographic paper, but no camera.Next day he noticed several lines on this paper for which he could not account.By restoring everything to exactly the same condition as on the preceding day, | he was able to ascertain the real origin of these mysterious marke.\u2014Chamber\u2019s Journal.The Sfanlev Hotel, opposite the Windsor station, is one of the cleanest and moet, comforteble in the city.A.Beli veau proprietor.The Women at Denver.The women who will attend the meet: ing of the General Federation of Women\u2019s Clubs at Denver mext week wiil be themselves interesting to observe, being the most distinguished leaders of the | great \u201cclub movement\u201d of latter years among the women of the United States.But the women who are at home in Denver and in the other states where women are voters will be even more interesting for \u2018their visitors to study.This is the ' opportunity of a lifetime for most of these active and intelligent ladies who are to tut out the work for the clubs for another year to see and hear and enquire and settle themselves whether suffrage or we @ public benefit ot a public injury, whether the exercise of full political equality for nearly five years in Colorado has promoted or retarded the elevation of women and of society.Let the visitors in Denver question every woman they meet, and not only the women vof Colorado, but \u2018those who are resent from Wyoming, Utab, and Ida- 0, as to the rezults of woman's enfranchisement in those communities; let the bearing of these weste:u women be noted and their relatiors to their homes, their husbamls their children, ther city, and their state.,No one has ever claimed that recognm- tion of women\u2019s political and legal quality will bring about the millennium.No great social changea is ever accomplished that is accompanied only by unmixed good.All that those who wish to see woman suffrage tried on a broad scale believe is that, on the whole, the extension of suffrage in these American com- monwealtha has made government more honest, more intelligent, and more hue mane than before; and that the disasters predicted by our friends, the remonstrants, have totally failed to materialize.A simple, practical matter of fact is now in the way of being established in tha minds of a great many potent leaders among women.Is it a matter of fact that Colorado women are less respectable or less influential with the suffrage than without it?Are they helped or hindered by their possession of the ballot in club work or charitable work or church work or in the home?Are these women, after five years\u2019 experience with the ballot, be- overflowed \u201cwas equal to the bulk of his bodÿ, and it occurred to him that the worth | coming unsexed Amazons, neglectful wives, and careless mothers\u2019\u2014Boston Transcript.: A The Old Map of China.It is to be hoped our museums are pregerving recent maps of China; nothing could be more amusing.There, in the centre, like the sun, is the Celestial rm- pire; mound it are ranged such lesser states as Japan, Formoea, Leuchai, Java, Siam, Burmah and Russia, like satellites dancing attendance on the ruling orb: while outside are scattered kingdoms and continents haphazard, as islands and headlands, filling up odd corners.In this way are depicted such small features of the planet as England, Portugal, India, Bokhara, Holland, Germany and France; while trifling spots, mere excres- censes on the fair face of the world, like Africa and America, are wholly omitted.In view of what has just happened, it is droll to know that only a generation back these celestials did not recognize the Germanic Confederation.Mr.Chester Holcombe, who was acting minister of the United States at Pe- kin, tells the story that when the Fatherland sent commissioners here to negotiate a treaty, they were refused point blank.But \u201con the kindly intervention of the British minister, this refusal was withdrawn.The Chinese Government naively remarked that it was informed hy the British representative that the Germans were really a respectable people, and that their king was a relative or the Queen of Great Britain.For this reason they decided to negotiate a treaty.\u201d It required a clause in the treaty of 1858 to induce them to cease calling foreigners \u201cI,\u201d or barbarians.All that is changed Lo a great extent;

success.The president announced thet at the next meeting nominations for election of officers of the Council would be received.After transacting some other business of a routine nature, the meeting adjourned.* * + The Stonecutters\u2019 Union held their reg: ular meetwng Thursday evening in Br.Joseph\u2019s Hail, 1796 St.Catherine street, l'resident Alph.llomier in the chair, anu ukere was a large attendance.lhe question of a certain alderman, who was very anxious to be considered a labor sympathizer at the last city elections, empuoy- ing non-union stonecutters, was considered, and also a report that obnoxious conditioms prevailed at the building operations on the site of the old Barron biock, both of which matters were referred to committees.* * * The garment melters are !desirous of liaving the sweating system abolished by thie City Council by means of repressive legislation, and everybody, of course, is in sympathy with them.* * * The Montreal Printing Pressmen\u2019s Union, No.52, will meet this (Saturday) evening at 223 McGill street, when, be- sices the usual routine business, matters relating to the convention held last month by the international body at Cleveland, Ohio, will be discussed.* * * The fourth anual picnic of the International Association of Machinists will take place at Iberville on Saturday, July 16.A lacrosse match between two local teams will be a leading feature, and strictly union music will be provided.\"The Picnic Committee has done noble work, and some Bixty attractive prizes are offered to competitors in the games.* » * At tre Municipal Labor Bureau the number of applicants for employment for the month of June was 88, as compared with 226 mm May, and the number o1ereu employment last month was 114, against 136 for May.General laborers are mot 11 much demand around the city.Engagements are now, being made for the hay harvest, and the 1ate of wages is better than last year, some men mow refusing to .work for $15 a month, and will take nothing less than $1 a day and board.The demand for workmen in the building 1rades i8 reported as, fair.The number of Larbers seeking employment is never sufficient, while hotel help is always wanted.* * * The many friends of Mr.W.B.Prescott will be sorry to hear that he was defeated for re-election to the presidency of Alue International Typographical Union.He has held the office for some years, and has always been a favorite amongst the printers of this city, having received at the late eleation all the votes of Jacques Cartier and almost all of those of No.176.» * * À good many union men are probably unaware of the existence in this city of the Silk Hatters\u2019 Association.This is probably the oldest labor orgamization in Montreal, having been instituted in 1854.The parent association in England is said to be 200 years old.There are no nom- uvion silk hatters in the city.The local body held its election of officers recetnly for the ensuing year, which resulted as follows: President, George Bellile; vice- president, Clodomir River; secretary, George Provencher.* * * Mr.S.W.Read has an interesting letter in the latest issue of the International Typographical Journal on matters of local interest to printers in this city.* + * Victoria lodge of machinists held their regular fortnightly meeting at their ball, Notre Dame and Panet streets, and among other business decided to admit dropped and suspended members, many of whom have been unable to pay their dues on | account of the hard times, at the nominal sum of $2, which offer will remain open for sixty days.This lodge is now gaining ground rapidly, there being 50 per cent.more members than at the begin: ning of the year.* * * At a recent meeting of the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners, No.134, the following officers were elected: President, E.Maille; vice-president, J.Ainey; recording secretary, J.Bayard ; financial secretary, E.Frechette ; treasurer, E.Guilbault; conductor, J.Le- veque; \u2018warden, C.Davis; delegates to Federated Trades Council, J.Ainey and \u201c.Danis.Mr.William T.Lance, formerly of this city, 1s now president of Sherbrooke Typographical

victors, whoever they may be.The rressmen feel that they have a sure thing \u2018f the tvpos would ¢nly make a move.The hygienic conditions which prevail m some of the steam laundries in the city are very bad.In some of the departments the windows and doors are kept tightly shut and the effect cn the health of the workers during the hot weather is terrible to contemplate.It is said that if the men ard women employed in these places would only ventilate their grievances the public would be shocked by the revelations, and, of course, that would result in something being done to remedy the state of affairs.The factory inspectors say that to properly enforce the Factory Act it would be necessary for them to board and lodge in the laundries, so complicated are the provi: sions of the law in regard to this branch ot trade.Some steps may be taken soon, it is to be hoped, to simplify these provisions and make the law workable, so that the lives of some human beings in the business may be saved.Complaints are also heard from time to time of unsanitary places belonging to some fur manufacturers.The public have been told in the daily papers recently that the shirt manufacturers of Canada are in a bad way owing to some reductions made by the Fielding Tariff Act.They give this as an excuse for cutting the wages of their employes, it would seem.If any one needs protection, it is the hard-worked and poorly-paid shirt- makers, their wages ranging from two to five dollars a week, the woman of average speed making $3.50.These dow wages, in Montreal, at least, prevailed long before the last Federal elections took place, and cannot be ascribed to any reductions made by the present Government in the tariff.he employes are of the opinion that protecting the manufacturers by a tariff on imports is of no benefit to those who make sixty cents a day at the sewing machine.Another evidence of the untiring energy of our local cigarmakers\u2019 organizations is shown in the issue by them of a neat littla card, which has attached to it a match- scratcher, and a fac-simile of the Blue Label, with the words at the top, \u201cSmoke union-made cigars,\u201d and at the bottom See that this label is on every box.\u201d \u2019 Mr.Eugene O'Rourke, formerly a member of Typo.Union 176, has been elected delegate o the American Federation of Labor by the International typos.He is at present an officer and vigorous worker in New York Typo.Union, No.6., * * + At the meeting of the Central Trad and Labor Council, held on Thursday evening, a communication was read from the Trades and Labor Congress of Canada reminding the council that the congress will be held this year in Winnipeg, and Tequesting to have the names of the three delegates selected to represent the council forwarded as soon ag possible to Secretary Dower.The following delegates were nominated, their election to take place at a future meeting:\u2014Messrs.Be- langer and Blain, of the Bricklayers\u201d Union; Barnes, Heavy Carters\u2019 Union; Laverdure and Dore, of the Leather Cutters\u2019 Union; Chatel and Lafontaine, Jacques Cartier 'I'ypographical Union, No.145; Dodd and Gibbons, Dominion Assembly, K.of L., Verdun Coopers\u2019 Protective Umion; McKinley and Bermingham, Black Diamond Assembly, K.of L.; Fitzpatrick, D.A.18, K.of L.A discussion took place on the dangerous condition of Albert street, and it was decided to write a letter to the secretary of the Road Department and the Municipal Committee was also authorized to wait on the Road Committee and try and have the wrongs righted.From the temper of some of the delegates it was evident that a determined fight will be made against some of the clauses in the new charter.It will be remembered that it took many years of hard work and many thousands of hard- earned dollars to tight the statute labor tax, and finally organized labor won in the end.This they are willing to go through again to abolish what they call an infringement of the rights of labor.The clauses which many of the delegates object to is the one providing that a candidate for the Mayoralty must be a real estate holder to the amount of $10,000, while the acting Mayor, who is an alderman, and who may be acting Mayor for three months at a time, enjoying all the powers and privileges of Mayor, needs only $2,000 worth to be elected.It was also pointed out that a tenant must pay a tax of $1.50 a year, while the landlord himself may live in a similar house and not pay that tax.After a lengthy discussion the secretary was instructed to write to the City Clerk for printed copies of the city charter in French and English, and have the same for distribution at the next meeting, and that the municipal committee be empowered to engage one of the ablest local lawyers and have his opinions on the matter.Another matter that was thoroughly discussed by the council was the selling of goods on the instalment plan.It was finally referred to the municipal committee, with instructions to secure the services of legal talent, and have a test case fought in the courts, and to have the law in this important matter made public for the benetit of the citizens at-large.The report of the Municipal Labor Bureau was presented by Manager Lafontaine for the months of March, April, May and June, as follows: \u2014 Situations vacant Situations and

privateer is hovering off the coast of British Columbia 18 not credited here.Some time ago it Was reported that a man named Brown had cabled from Victoria to the Spanish authorities at Madrid asking for letters of marque to fit out a privateer and prey upon the treasure ships coming from the Klondike.At the time this was thought to be merely an advertising scheme to revive the waning interest in the Klondike gold fields, and no trace of Brown could be found at Victoria.lf a Spanish privateer is really cruising off British Columbia she will have rich picking.The steamers Rginoke and St.Paul are due to arrive almost any day from St.Mi- chaels with big shipments of treasure to the North American Trading and Transportation Company and the Alaska Commercial Company.The steamer Lelanaw is also due with returning prospectors and their clean-ups.The Roanoke and Lela- naw are bound for Seattle and the St.Paul for San Francisco.Why ?(Chicago Daily News.) \u201cWhy isn\u2019t a minister a

and Yunis, with their rich soil and splendid harbors and their remains of an ancient and splendid civilization\u2014Phoenician, Greek, Roman, Christian, and Arab.Then let them allow their eyes to travel dewn- wards to the right bank of the greatest river ot Africa, the Congo.From Constantine, with its great memcries and its sceu- ery almost European in charm and splendor, to Brazzaville and Stanley ool, with their tropical vegetation and savage life there is a continuous and uninterrupte stretch\u2019 of French terrvitcry.As they say in our country districts, the French President niight now ride on hie own land from Tunis To Loango.The krench dominion of West Africa (as says an official communique to the Paris press with very natural exultation) now extends over a space as great as that from Paris to Moscow.From Algeria to the Congo, from Senegal to Lake Chad\u2014i.e., almost to the centre of Africa\u2014stretches Semis vast territory.\u201cAt the present moment,\u201d to quote the words of the communique, \u2018\u2018all our West African colonies\u2014 Algeria, Tunis, Senegal, Futa-Jallon, the are in communication by their respective Hinterlands.\u201d But probably this will not convey much to the ordinary English read- tr.Perhaps we can best make him realize the immensity of the French West African empire by pointing out that, with the exception of certain great German and English \u2018and other enclaves, the whole of the huge pTece of Africa which bulges out on the map towards the west now belongs to France.She has all the connecting links, all that does not specifically belong to some one else, and she cuts off short the Hinter- ands of all the Powers with possessions on the Wes African coast.Let us begin at the most western point of the coast-line of Tripoli in the Mediterranean, and travel round the coast, marking off all that is not French.First, we come to Tunis\u2014that is in the possession of france just as Egypt is in our possession.Algiers come next\u2014that is French.Then Morocco.Morocco is at present independent, buf at the back of Moroccô all the land, be it desert or cultivable is French.Next comes a strip of Spanish coast, but it goes only a very little way inland, and all the back country is French.Next comes the great French colonies of Senegambia and Futa-Jallop, with two little colonies embedded in them, one belonging to us\u2014 the Gambia\u2014and the other belonging to Portugal.Next come our Sierra Leone and independent Liberia, but here again the Hinterlands are all French.Next comes the French Ivory Coast colony, then the British Gold Coast, then German To- goland, and then French Dahomey.Here again all the Hinterlands beyond, say four hundred miles inland, belong, since the signing of the convention, to France.After that comes our colony of Lagos, then the German Cameroons, and finally the French Congo\u2014the last French possession in Western Africa.Here, too, the Hinterlands have been cut off by the French, and our colonies have been made into enclaves in_the mighty French dominion.1% is true that the Niger or Lagos enclave 1a a very vast one, and stretches now up to Lake Chad, which becomes henceforth ns international a sheet of water as the Lake of Constance.Still, it is an enclave, for, as we read the conventégn, he who embarks upon Lake Chad Irom the British shore and steers easlward will land on | French Territory.In other words, Nigeria EE x ove eo - The HUGMAN WINDOW SHADE CO, Manufacturs of Hand-made Opaque Shade Cloth, Plain, Dado, Laced and Fringed Window

MERTON NA ASN ANS Sa A ç ; Ja = THREADS AND THRUMS.The most miserable of women in hot weather is the one who dresses too tightly, eats too much, and tries to keep up rérength and energy by drugs, instead of sleeping or resting.over-tired flings himself into a hammock ot on a couch, or curls up in a railway carriage and goes to sleep.The dear woman\u2014bldss her\u2014couldn\u2019t be comfortable after that fashion.She admits she is never comfortable lying down, unless she 18 properly disrobed, and when all is said and done, it means just one thing\u2014 corsets, The woman with the face which is red as beet-root is a very unpleasant fenture in a summer landscape.Usually she awakens a good deal of sympathy, and folks talk wisely and sorrowfully of the heart disease or apoplexy in her family.Now there are red faces and red faces.Some are the crimson that comes from hot blood and exercise, but the blotched and purplish ones are often the direct result of a circulation impeded at the waist-line, Then there is the food.Starch and sugar is to be avoided.Lean meat, bread, fresh fruits, eggs, fish, green vegetables served cold\u2014these are hot weather foods.You may devour pastry, swallow Fweets, imbibe acids and fan yourself into a fever, but don\u2019t lay the blame on the weather.Most of us eat too much, at all times, and certainly gluttony and injudicious food are to be frowned against when the mercury is gambolling in the vicinity of ninety.And when your head aches, and your cyes are glassy; when your hands are hot and your temper is uncertain; when your feet feel like well weighted floor-polishers, and your nerves are swinging with loose ends, go off and have a sleep.Let the reading and the eewing, the cooking and the cleaning wait\u2014just sleep and rest.Don\u2019t take & dose of somebody\u2019s panacea.Don\u2019t take a headache powder.Don\u2019t let any one persuade you that you need a stimulant.Nature is erying for rest and sleep, and she is such e wilful thing that she will cry until she gets it.You drug her into unconsciousness, but she will remember it all against you when she wakens up again.It does not pay in any sense of the word to use more strength than you can replace each twenty-four hours, with food and air ani sleep.We women forget this sometimes, and we play foolish little tricks on ourselves in the name of economy.We undertake more than we can do in justice to ourselves physically, and then, with a low sort of pride insist upon carrying out our plans, just because they have been made.Mothers engage to perform certain feats of strength in the household, socially, or in a business way, and they absorb every atom of geod nature and cheerfulness and are too tired and cross to be real mothers to their little ones, real hoine-makers in their houses, or real companions to their husbands.Now, there are women who are so placed that they must go on in a treadmill of work.They know it is too hard for them\u2014that it is sapping their strength and energy, and cutting short life itself.But they cannot help it.Some one else is to blame, and they are martyrs just as surely as if they had placed their necks in nooses for love of home and husband and children, or duty to parent.Some frail women, unaccustomed to labor, are working for bread and shelter\u2014killing themselves that they may live honestly.These stand apart.Their lives are noble.We cannot judge their work, nor mea- suve their influence.We can only wish them god-speed with à sob in our voices.It à the others we would wish to call back\u2014those who forsake their real work for the fripperies of ornamental labor, who worry and fret and bustle about the world, tired out and faring very badly on the dried husks of happiness.The vulgar proverb goes: \u201cDon\u2019t bite off more than you can chew,\u201d and its homely advice is what scores and scores of women need this very minute in Montreal and out of it.They need it to Mve by this summer, when the hot days fag one out.They will need it more than ever next winter, when the clash of interests shall wear and waste away all the flesh and strength and good humor that has been so carefully gathered from sea breezes or mountain air.\u201cDear me,\u201d said a lady to me one day, \u201c I could never be comfortable if I believed in re-incarnation.I've been so tired all my life that if I should find out J had to begin all over again directly 1 died, I should be very much disappointed.\u201d The house mother has begun the pre- gerving again.She has rows of nice crimson strawberries stored taway, and presently she will look over raspberries, stone cherries, top and tail currants and gooseberries, prick plums, or skin peaches.\u2018here are days when she will be very tired of it all, when she will yearn to be a fly or a bear, and will think disgustedly of the busy bee, and the squirrel and all the trouble they have made for her; but those are the days when her fingers are black and her hands are sticky, when the jelly won\u2019t \u201cjell,\u201d as the New Eng- Jonders say, and there is too much preserve for a small pot and too little for a pint jar.The days when her soul swells with pride are the days she looks at her neat rows of labelled pots and isrs, and thinks of the cold days in the winter when jam ana jelly and preserves are exactly to the king's taste, as well as to that of the queen and all the little princes and princesses.Longueuil, named after one lof the Le- Moyne brousers, and rejoicing'in the old aristocratic blessing of a haunted house, is one of the many near summer Tesorts which Montreal counts almost as a sub- arb, \u2018The ferries go over so quickly that one gets just a smell of the water and a glimpse of the city behind, and then the cleverly-bandled boat swings round to its proper position at Longueuil wharf } A man who is.in spite of the current.There is quite a bustle at the water's edge, drays and cabs are huddled in a bunch there, and milk carts, delivery waggons and huge loads of laundry are driven off the ferry.The Hussars had just returned to the city, and during their stay in\u2019 camp, the summer residents probably founti the little place very gay.Many yacHts rode at anchor in tbe tiny bay, and there was an air of jollity, ease and summer freedom amongst those who strolled about the quiet streets.The church is the one building which stands out from all else.Its gray walls and light spire come into view from all points.It broods upon the tree-tops, and the larger houses, and is at once the benediction and the inspiration of the peaceful riverside village.The other night we wheeled to Lachine, and grew enthusiastic to the point of delirium over the mottled gray sky, the {lashing lights of the canal, the wide sweep of the gleaming river, the clover fields and the new hay.We rode into gusts of cool, and waves of warm air with exclamations of delight, and then grew wickedly oblivious to the scenery on account of an acetylene lamp.As we jogged along the road in company with this brilliant head light we saw indignant \u2018glances directed towards the wheel that carried it.For this shining light shows not only every stick and stone, every rut and every lump of mud or dust, but it also shines on the grass beneath the trees and upon seats beside the river, end it discloses gates and the young folk who are telling secrets as they stand there.It has a ruthless way of glaring at youths and maidens who are walking from one great country house to another, along a delightfully quiet road.No one objects to moonlight.It has a dreamy, peaceful way with it.Things seem in the moonlight.In sunlight, or in the search-warrant glare of the blazing lamps, we see everything very much as it is.This is another objection to the by-law.And speaking of by-laws, I wonder if you have all seen and laughed over that odd one passed by some queer council in Russell county.It prohibits.bicycle riding within the limits of a certain township.Somebody called the action a Latin name, which means \u201cit can\u2019t be did,\u201d and a great many other people called it a great many other names, all of which are synonymous and differ only in sound and strength.The horror of an ocean disaster blanched our faces and set our hearts to aching, the other night.We have been reaching out our pity to the soldiers who have been wounded or are suffering from climate and other discomforts, when suddenly almost at the Halifax gate of our country, men and women and children are sucked down into the great sea.We are so ready to cry coward, to eall people blameworuny, with big words and a \u2018great deal of bluster, but even while we talk, there comes to some of us a misgiving about glass houses.Would we be brave if fate came to offer us death in one hand and a life bought by a life in another?Would we tramïple on the weak because we were strong or save ourselves and leave the helpless to perish?It is something we should train ourselves to think of.Life is dear, but coward lives can have little of true delight in them.It is so easy to play coward\u2014a turn of the wrist, a shifting of the eye, a kick, a push, an opportunity to be brave neglected, and a man or a woman has done something which generations cannot undo, for the meanness and fear and coldness of neart will flow on in the blood.The corn-flowers as we love to call the bluets which raise their spreading branches on every Toad-side have come to us earlier than usual this year, and they add another dash of color to the bouquets which most children and many women industriously gather.The grasses are growing tall and some have the violet fluff or ripening time on their stiff heads, some are purpling and bronzing and some are fading into the delicate green of perfection.The Kentucky blue grass twines more and more firmly around the clezer stalks and white daisies, and when you gather them you pull the little vetch up by the yard.It is such a lovely world, this summer world of breeze and sunshine, flowering weeds and ripening hay.The birds sing so gaily in the sun, so softly and weirdly in the hush of evening.There is such a riot of color in the landscape in the day, and the waning moon sails up the sky so grandly at night.1Yeace and plenty and happiness have come in full measure to some, and it is only when a sharp cry of pain rings through the quiet, that it can be believed sorrow and sin and suffering are making some souls unquiet and some bodies long for rest.CORRESPONDENCE, $ D 60H64 All readers are welcome to the correspondence column.Queries are answered carefully.Handwriting is delineated, and drawings of the palm of the hand,

debarred from making as good use of them as men do, because of aur petticoats and our lack of physical strength, but I think the majority will be content to use the less cumbersome rights which custom has given us and accept the priv- {leges which most men are willing to bestow.It is a man\u2019s right to shoulder a musket, to look for burglars at night, to lift anything heavy, knock down any one who ought to be knocked down and give us the shady side of the piazza and his seat in the street car.We may say we have a right to sit in the sun or swing from a strap, but it doesn\u2019t seem exactly expedient and I can\u2019t help thinking that we now have more rights given us by custom than we can ever account for squarely when the Recording Angel totes up his lines of figures and we

I know families living very comfortably on 350 to $55 per month.Of course they do not keep servants, and luxuries are rigorously tabooed.I don\u2019t say I would care to get married on $600 or $700 a year myself, but if a couple really marry for love\u2014 well, they can live on it\u2014love, that is.What do you judge of my character from this fist?1s it feminine?\u201d No, 1 don\u2019t think it is feminine, and I think you ought to be called to account for imposing that old almanac joke on us, People have discovered that they can\u2019t eat love, and that is why we were so glad to have the practical, common sense letters on the spending of $1,009, and the carefully-considered figures of those who did it.The real difficulty is this: A man with $1,000 salary, very often spends it all on himself.He lives without saving, and amongst people who spend as much as he does.When he marries, he wants to go on spending a thousand dollars, and be one of the same crowd he was before he married.Well, two from four you can\u2019t, and that\u2019s all there is about it.It is childish to say a family can\u2019t live on a sum which is sufficient to feed and clothe them.People mean divers things when they say live.\u201d The spick and span young man means a cosy home, {luxuries on the table, ease and comfort in the right-hand trousers pocket, and that delightful sense of being as well dressed as your friends and\u2014enemies.1t\u2019s all in the way you look at it.You can live on a thousand dollars, and train up one or two, or three olive branches but you must be an unselfish man, an you must marry an unselfish woman.and you must care nothing for the gear of the world, for the fuss and feathers of society.You must believe true lave is gold, and count the pennies out carefully for every ounce of food and every yard of cloth you buy.KFrogmore\u2014Ambition, tenacity of purpose, enthusiasm, nervousness, generosity, obstinacy and loquacity are shown here.\u2018I'ristram\u20147This hand shows mirth, intellectual honesty, vigor of body, affection, sincerity, self-control, a stern, rather unforgiving and practical nature and an aptness for mathematics.Kubla Khan\u2014Your hand has the independence of a gipsy queen, the romance of a sixteen-year-old girl, the sensitiveness of a flower, the canniness of an old Scotch woman and the charity of a mother in Israel.Just go on reading and thinking, and 1 am sure you will be rewarded for your patience and perseverance, Glory Quale\u2014Undoubtedly your husband is in the right.I think men often are.You know, though, to hear some specimens of wifehood talk, you would be led to believe that the serpent had conferred eternal and unfaltering wisdom on woman when he met her great forbear in Kden.Your husband\u2019s friends are quite as dear to him as yours are to you, and 1 daresay his mother is a nice gentle old lady, with white curls, who will cry over you and love you.You should have gone across long ago, and you ought to be proud you are a Canadian.Don\u2019t pretend you're anything else.Pretending is a wretched business, and leads to misery, through misery from misery.Yes, 1 liked Mrs.Rorer\u2019s cooking articles, and followed her blindly, snd with exceeding faith until she said strawberries were probably made for reptiles, and now 1 know 1 never shall take another crumb of comfort in reading her articles as long as 1 live.Bessie\u2014Your hand shows a poetic temperament, some irritability, wit, originality, impulse, extreme nervousness, sincerity, sensitiveness and sympathy.d\u2014Strength of purpose, unselfishness, caution, reserve and sincerity.The life line is very long and strong, but there No advertisement can, THE HERALD, SATURDAY, JULY 9, 1898.is one break in it, which means an in-!

Delicious is your shelter to the soul.\u2014Thompson.Whenever you are specially desirous ot getting bargaine in furniture it is notice able that the papers are teeming with shirt waist ads, and when shirt waists are your desideratum there is a tremendous hue and cry regarding chiffoniers.No woman ever made herself feel a bit cooler by going around in a slovenly wran- per, and with her hair in untidy confu- gion.A fashion that I am informed on good authority will extend well into the next season of dinners and dances is the flouncing of gowns from hem to waist with lace, and, in fact, covering the entire gown with lace.This is a fashion that was much in vogue during the late \"70's and early \u201980\u2019s; so, if there is a woman who has nicely tucked away her fine lace flounces she may now bring them forth.The old- fashioned prejudice of combining two sorts of lace has been overcome by the artistic effects that have recently been brought about through this thing.It is not at all unusual to see a frill of old-fashioned Yax lace edging a yoke of Valenciennes.It is, therefore, an easier matter now to put odds and ends of laces to good use.Word comes from Germany that the women of that land are slowly but surely learning to assert themselves.They ara no longer content to know and do just what their fathers and husbands dictate, and there is a tendency to independence in the modern girls which is of quite recent growth.Perhaps it is this fact which males them prettier and distinctly more fascinating than they used to be, but there are still found the antiquated thinkers who behold symptoms of danger in the change, and are anxious to see the good old-fashioned type of housewife preserved in all her housekeeping glory.Will it be believed Tn these progressive days an institution has been founded in a certain capital of the Fatherland where budding womanhood may be taught to regard her future husband as a superior being to be looked up to humbly and obeyed implicit ly?She is to have intelligent opinions, but not assert them; to think as her lord and master thinks, and her chief aim in life is the preparing of his meals.She \u2018is to shrink from publicity, and bear in mind the proverb, \u201cThe place of the woman and the oven is within doors.\u201d She is mot debarred from taking interest in the vital questions of the day, but she must agree with her husband\u2019s views, and not assert her own too prominently.She must as well cultivate many othen comfortable stay-at-home virtues which are calculated to render the happy wife and mother the blessing of the household.Stronger than a fear of Spanish bullets and torpedoes is the American woman\u2019s dread fever, and every wife or mother has her own opinion of a special preventive of the dangerous yellow Jack.tur- dts wearer impregnable to what the ancient believers in amulets called fire in the blood.A gold or silver band, on the fourth finger, set with a blue jewel, is a popular military decoration just now, and apprehen- give women beg that their soldier boys will keep their hair as closely clipped as possible, or wear sulphur boots, else a square of raw white silk sewed into their coats over the region of the heart.Lamb\u2019s wool bracelets over the ankles and wrists are also considered effective for preserving the blood at a normal temperature, and women in Louisiana gather wild olive flowers and sew them into little bags for wear about the neck in fever-ridden districts.Lady Arnold, the wife of Sir Edwin Ar nold, K.C.1.E., C.S.I., is probably the only Japanese lady wearing an English title.She was born at Sendai in Japan, Nov.21, 1869, her family name being Kurokawa, Tam, which being translated means \u201cJewel of the Dark River.\u201d va.> ç -

but when that dashing company was half way across the field I noticed the inspiring array, and for a nyo.ment was lost in rapt admiration of the magnificent picture.Every driver wag ply- - ing whip and spur, the great guns were | rocking and thundering over the ground, and every horse, reeking with foam and full of animation and excitement, was straining every muscle as he galloped for.i ward, yet a straight line drawn along in front would have touched the noses of the lead horses in front of the six guns.That was an artillery charge, one of the most | thrilling sights in the evolutions of war.\u201cIt is surprising how quickly horses learn the bugle calls.Let the first note of the feed or water bell be sounded, and instant- lv there will be a stamping, kicking and neighing among the horses.Once, during a terrible night storm in camp, our horses were seized with such terror that those of nearly every battery broke loose and scat- tereed about.The next morning there was & wild rush among the artillerymen to capture horses for use.All was excitement, and the horses refused to be caught.An officer ordered the bugler to give the fecd call.Horses from every direction came dashing into that battery, and the rush was so great that it was with difficulty the men could get out of the way of the eager horses.\u201cWhen it comes to a batfle a horse seems to know everything that is going on, and the reason for it all, and does his duty nobly.He shows no fear of death, no sign of being overcome by panic in all the wi.d ra A Painful Operation, Trying to hobble around on feet that are blistered, sweaty, hot ana tender, is not only painful, but unnecessary.Foot Elm, at 23¢ - AI S.M.H.STOTT & JURY, Bowmanville, Ont, | ronto.a box, quickly cures these troubles.Try it.druggists, or by mail, postage free, ;

132 ST.JAMES STREET, Montreal., * GREY W onderful display ofsummer er The following generous tribute to Canada and to her national day is paid by the New York Tribune: This is the day our nonthern neighbors celebrate; this year for the thirty-first time, and, we may well believe, with greater zest than ever heretofore, It is_the anniversary of the act which created the Dominion of Canada, and which transformed a group of separate and not infrequently half-hostile provincés Into one united, harmonlous and mighty nation.The date almost coincides with that of our own Independence Day, but iz not to be compared with that, but rather with the too-little regarded day on which our constitution was adopted and the thir- ten loosely-connected States were united tn- to One indissoluse nation.The bigh anticipations of our constitution-makers were vastly more than realized in the benefits that accrued to this nation from the adoption of that instrument.Similarly have the Canadian provinces been blessed by the results of the great act of 1567, The population bas j'icreased.Industry and commerce have prokpered and have been extended.Great pubile works have been successfully completed.A true national spirit has been engendered.Devotion to the mother country and to the Empiro bas been strengthemed und confirmed.And all these things have t:.cen achieved © an extent that would have heen not only impossible, but inconceivable wvithou?the unifying bond of the Dominion.In this and in the significance of this day Canadians may well rejoice, from the fisher- fes of Cape Breton to the gold-diggings of the Klondike, There is not one worthy interest of theirs that bas not been served, awd not one laudablo ambition that has pot Leen promoted toward fulfilment by the creation and maintenance of the Dominion.If they have wished domestic tranquility and prosperity, they have secured them in abundant measure.If they have desired a place emong the nations of the world, they have attained it.If they have sought.as doubtless the majority have done, te maintain and to Strengthen the bonds that bind them to the British Empire, *hat purpose has been effectively served\u2014the referential tariff arrangement with the mother country goes into force this Very day.If any have de- cired, us no doubt some have done, coin- plete national independence, assuredly the creation of the Dominion marked the only way in which that could be attained.And, finally, if any have looked, as some, we now, have lonked, toward ultimate union with the UnTied States, it fs certain that the same act was an absolute sine qua non to that end.There are varying panties and panty pelicies in Canada.But on this one point, of rejoicing in the significance of Dominion Day, all have cause for an entire agreement as afl United States parties have in thanksgiving for the acts of 1776 and 1789, Nor ig the occasion devoid of profound interest on this side of the St.Lawrerce nd the lakes: an jrmterest this year far groater than ever before.It has been great- lv to the advantage of thisynation to have \u2018he Dominion established, and to have it prosper as it has done.And while in strengthe@d Imperial relations this present anniversary \u2018has a new significance to Canadians, it should have à new significance to the United States as well in strengthened friendship with our neighbor and a final srttiement and passing away of the old controversies that have so long been vexatious brtween us and her.He is no friend of either country who would prolong thnse differences for one unnecessary hour.It would be of Mippiest omen if this Dominion Day could see comnlete adoption by our Government of the President\u2019s statesmanlike plan, a'rsady adopted by Canada and Great Britain, for, an international conference which shall devise an equitable settlement of all disputes and bring the two great English- speädking nations of this continent into the romplete accord for which tfiey were designed by nature.In the prosperity of the Domin- fon the United States may well rejoice, and toward the closest friendship with it may well aspire.For in them this nation\u2019s own interests and profit will be served and progress be made toward that commonweal of man.if not that federation of the world which is the goal of civilized desire.How S8pain Lost Argentina, There was from the first a very great difference between the colonizing of Scuth and North America.The one was settled by adventurers, the other by sober and Ged-fearing Puritans.Without institut- mg any ungenerous comparision between puritanic and sometimes fanatical Pro- tostanism, and that picturesque Catholie- ism which appears to have allowed so much license of life, it is impossible to doubt for a moment which proved the best and surest foundation for the building up of a nation.The one tended to permanency, the other to decay.Spain ns the result of brilliant daring and wun- scruplous valor, gained a hold of South America which promised to bring her ever-increasing wealth and prosperity; but that hold grew weaker and weaker.One by one the rich southern states slipped from her grasp and she has left little behind her but memories of corruption and impotence.; With regard to the Vireynato de Buenos Ayres, which we now know as the Argentine Republic, it is interesting to note that England had an influence, indirectly, in the gaining cf her independence.Spain\u2019s rule had proved to be the tule of \"the tax-gatherer, or rather of the extortioner.The first struggle an the part of Buenos Ayres was brought about in the following manner.Britain was at war with Spain, in the early years of this century, and as a means of harras- ging her enemy abroad, the British government sent a small force to Buenos Ayres, under command of Lord Beresford.It was casy for tae British to take possession, but not easy to keep.After holding the city for two montLs, Beresford suffered defeat at tne wands of Gen.Liniers, who, on his own behalf, had organized the natives without assistance from fthe Madrid powers.The Spanish viceroy had, in fact, fled on the approach of the British, and it was by their own endeavors that the inhabitants drove out our forces.l\u2018ngland\u2019s efforts in the matter were probably half hearted, her chief desire being to annoy Spain; and a second force sent peainst Buenos Ayres was served in like manner to the first, for the natives had begun: to feel their strength and had be- : 9660006000 9 9 0 669600606000 $ Plate 9 * That Wears @ ©

forgotten what it owes to the bruve General of Argentina.Though finally delivered from the Spanish rule it was long before the cause of freedom was established on a satisfactory tooting, and the young republic had for many years to struggle with bad rulers.Jt was not until 1853 that Buenos Ayres had finally developed into the Argentine Republic, with a definite constitution and President.This constitution is in many respects similar to Wat of the United States, but there are some important differences.The President en- Joys office for six years and cannot be- re-elected; but he is a trifle more absolute than the President at the White House.\u2018A.change of Government is not marked by the regrettable revolution of officials that take place when a new President arrives at Washington.The ruling powers are thus more stable and less subject to the fluctuations of public caprice.Since 18s¢ the republic has enforced free education on all children between the ages of six and fourteen.There are universities and many national colleges, a naval and a military academy, with schools for mining and agriculture.As a proof that Argentina, though Catholie in its religion, will not allow its education to be influenced by the priests, it is worthy of note inat, not many ycars ago, when the Papal Nuncio advised \u2018some parents not to send their children to a school where Catholicism was not taught, he was promptly given his passport, and asked to leave the country.m The press ia free, and there \u2018are many newspapers.We shall not do wrong in regarding the Argentine Republic as one of the most prosperous anc peaceful of southern states \u2014Houschold Words.Au ION AGAINST BUSHNELL OIL CO.Hon.Louis Beaubien Suing for $12,000 for Alleged Damages to His Outre mont Property.A suit

of the Disease.Levis, P.Q., July 8\u2014The cliamate of fhis province is such that Rheumatism is a very common disease.Almost every family in the province suffers from its ravages.Young and old are victims.Thousands of people are erippled for life by it._ A medicine that can cure Rheumatism is a God-send.Experience has proved that liniments and oils are of no more value than is cold water rubbed on the cheek to cure toothache.That Rheumatism is due to diseased kidneys allowing poison to remain in the blood, instead of filtering it out, has been abundantly proved by the remarkable sue- cess of Dodds Kidney Pills, which act solely on tae Kidneys, and which have cured every case of Rheumatism for which they have been used.A specimen case is that of Mr.M.IL.alinchey of this town.Mr.Hinchey says:\u2014\u201cI have, for years, been tortured by back-ache and Rheuma- ism, \u201cMy case was very severe, and my sufferings very great.\u201cI tried several kinds of medicines but they did me no good.\u201cI was induced to use Dodd\u2019s Kidney Pilis, and I am happy to state that three boxes cured me, fully and thoroughly.\u201d If Dodds Kidney Pills cured this severe case of Rheumatism, they will certainly cure others.Are you a sufferer from Rheumatism ?If you are, use a box or two of Dodd\u2019s Kidney _ Pills.They will certainly cure you.Dodd\u2019s Kidney Pills are sold by all druggists, at fifty cents a box, six boxes $2.50, or sent, on receipt of price, by The Dodds Medicine Co., Limited, Toronto.NEWS FROM STANFOLD.Pilgrims Have Gone by the Hundreds to Sto, Anne de

NOTRE DAME STREET country Louis XV.of France had ceded the colony, O'Reilly sought in vain among whites and blacks in Louisiana for a man who would perform the abhorrent work of serving as hangman at the execution of the patrictz.Not a man of the colony, says the Wew Orleans Picayune, would answer the call.In this emergency O\u2019Reilly was compelled to assign the congenial task of slaughtering the Melpless Creoles and Frenchmen to regular Spanish soldiers whom he had brought with him from Spain, and, instead of being hanged, Lafteniere and the others were shot to death by a platoon of grenadiers in a space of ground near the site of the present United States mint in New Orleans, which at that time was in the rear of the military garrison of the post.The failure of O\u2019Reilly to secure a hangman in the case of these unfortunate men recalled to old French residents of New Orleans of that day the interesting story of Jeannot, an African slave of the Mississippi Company, or Company of the West, which fifty years previously had control of the colony of Louisiana, under a charter granted by the Regent of Orleans.The company offered Jeannot his freedom on condition that he would serve as public hangman of the colony.Jeannot appeared to agree to the proposition, but he afterwards repaired to a secluded place and cut off his right arm with a hatchet, By this self-inflicted mutilation Jeannot avoided the repulsive duties of hangman for the eolony, but he also lost his opportunity for freedom.However, the agents of the company, not knowing in what way to utilize Jeannot as a laborer, appointed him overseer of all the slaves belonging to it.Poor Jeannot was rewarded for his sense of humanity and conscientiousness | by receiving the respect and esteem

when very deeply interested, he whispered the words of his lesson earnestly, and sometimes he whispered them so loud that Bessie sitting across the aisle could hear them.1t bothered her, and she wished he wouldn't do it.She had told him about it more than once, but Bob would forget.She was almost tempted to change her seat\u2014but she didn\u2019t.On the morning of examination all hoo#s were put away.The questions to be answered were written on a large blackboard, where all coud see, and a certain length of time was allowed for eaëh branch of study before the questions were erased and another set written in their place.Bessie nad made Bob promise that he would think to himself, and he was keeping his promise very well.lle did not need to think aloud, in fact, for most of the questions he could answer without thinking at all, and wrote out his replies in a round boyish hand on the sheet of paper before him.Bessie was not quite so quick, but she was just as accurate and felt as she put paper after paper aside unat 100 per cent would be marked on each.She had hut one fear.She had hard work to remember names |\u2019 end dates and she dreaded the examination in .ustory.She knew that Bob was perfect in history, but then he was not so good in spelling and would probably miss at least one word, which would count off two and a half per: cent, as there were forty words.She could not afford to miss any of the history questions, as there were only twenty of them, and they counted five per cent.each.History came last and spelling just before it.spelled were given out orally, and Bessie once noticed Bob scratching his head and heard him talking to himself very earnestly.She caught enough to make her almost sure he had mis-spelled the word, 1f she could only get safely through history now she believed she was certain to win the prize.\u2018Poor Bob !\u201d she thought, but then the prize was a beautiful set of books, and she did want them so badly.She watched anxiously while the history questions were being put on the board.Her heart grew lighter as each was written, and she felt that she eould answer it correctly, She had studied so hard\u2014she surely would be able to answer them all.She began writing very fast.Bob was writing, too.History was easy for him, and he was not afraid now.But the terrible spelling exercise had told upon his nerves and caused him to forget his promise about thinking aloud.He was reading the history questions in a loud whisper and answering them in the same way.Bessie was so interested \u2018that she did not hear him at first, and it is possible that she would not have heard him at all only the last question on the board was one that caused her to hesitate.It was à general's name, and she knew it perfectly, but for the instant it had sli ped her mind.It would surely come to hor in a moment.It would come to her presently\u2014it was coming now\u2014it began with S\u2014S\u2014S\u2014and just then, right across the aisle, she heard, without listening, Bob Swinton repeat, 1n a loud whisper, \u201cWho led the Americans at the Battle of Bennington?\u2019 and then without a moment\u2019s hesitation, just when che herself would have thought of it in another second, he added, \u201cGeneral Stark.\u201d \u2018hy, ves, of course, she knew it ws General Stark, and he had ke the words right out of her mouth.She wrote the name with a little flourish, and then before she had time to think it over, the papers were taken up, and the examination vas ended.: But when she thought it over that nj rhe tossed about in her bed and could Fat sleep.Perhaps she would not have thought of the name after all.Bob had no right to study aloud that way, though, and she believed the name was on her tongue when he spoke it.Sometimes she was sure of it, and then the next minute she did not believe she would have thought of it in time if Bob had kept ill.; The next morning Bob, as usual, met her at the gate.It was the last day of school, and the examination reports would e made at once.Bob, who was glad that school was out, was inclined to be merry, but Bessie hardly replied.The boy believed she was worrying about the prize, \u2018 and made up his mind that if he got it he- would give is to \u2018er anyway.When school was called he scholar hastened to the scholars their seats and became in | = AE EEE EE EE The words to he |.dt sas aed sit BOYS'3GIRLS\u2019 CIRCLE.stantly silent and all attention.The sehoolmaster arose.2 \u201cI have passed on the examination papers,\u201d he said, \u201cand I find that the prize goes to Miss Bessie Meade, who maintained 100 per cent.throughout.Next to her is Master Robert Swinton, who also maintained 100 t}roughout, except in spelling.In this study his per cent.is ninety-seven and a half, he having missed one word.\u2019 As the master paused there was a loud cheer and a clapping of hands.that ended he took from his desk a neat box, and, looking at Bessie, said :\u2014 \u201cThis is the prize offered\u2014a set of Longfellow\u2019s works.You have earned them fairly, Bessie; come forward and claim them.\u201d The little girl rose slowly, and took one step forward.Then she paused and leaned on her desk.Bob and others who were watching her saw that she was as pale as death.The teacher saw it, too, and thought it was because of the excitement.\u201cCome forward, Bessie,\u201d he repeated; \u201cthe books are yours.\u201d The little girl gasped, as if something were sticking in her throat.\u201cNo,\u201d she said, \u201cthe books are not mine.I did not know the answer to the last history question.I thought I knew it, and that I was just going to say it when 1 heard Bob Swinton say it, and I dont know now whether\u2014whether I\u2014could\u2014 could have said it or not.I don\u2019t want\u2014 I can\u2019t take the prize.\u201d She dropped back into her seat and bur1- ed her face in her arms, sobbing.Poor Bob, across the aisle, wondered why people could not die or fall through the earth when they were so miserable as he was.\u201cI won\u2019t have it\u2014I don\u2019t want the prize, anyway,\u201d he began to say hotly, when the master interrupted him.The master\u2019s voice was husky, and he paused now and then between the words.\u201cBy Bessies own statement,\u201d he said, after a moment\u2019s reflection, \u201cthe prize goes to Robert instead of to herself.1 know that Robert would willingly surrender it to her again, aud I am sure that in future he will try very hard to study \u2018is lessons silently.He has therefore earned à double benefit.As for Bessie, her noble heroism must be its own great reward.\u201d But Bessie earned another reward, for Bob simply made her take the books, and then, a month later, there came to her one day by express a beautiful gold and jewelled badge.It came from a great paper in the city, which, through her teacher, haa learned of her noble deed.Upon it was engraved her full name, and underneath were the words\u2014 \u2018A tribute to true heroism.\u201d ;

St.Nicholas, aa School Journeys.Since all the boys and girls dearly love an excursion, the school children of Germany are perhaps to be envied, for there it is part ot the school course to take excursions, real trips away from home, that have all the charm of novelty and adventure.The German idea of teaching is not tn tell the pupil a great many things, but to teach him to observe for himself, and for this end the school journey is planned.The third school year finds a boy eight vear of age old enough to take his first school journey.Each year thereafter will see him going to a new spoot, till, when he is fourteen years old, he has taken five journeys.A lady writer in the National Review gives an interesting account of one of these school joruneys, in which she accompanied the boys of the third year\u2014 eight-year-old youngsters\u2014on their first real school trip.The journeys last from two to fourteen days, and are planned to illustrate the studies of the year.Before they start, the boys discuss the country through which they are to travel, its manufactures and natural products, and the old castles and cathedrals they will visit, with the history of each.Possibly the most interesting part of preparation to some of the children is the napsack drill, the event of the day preceding the trip.On this occasion the boots and the clothes of the boys are carefully examined by the master, and all the useless artig'es excluded from the knapsacks., When the day arrived, fifteen small boys, in charge of the headmaster of the Jena Pedagogical Seminary, and two students They and one bright | - 2 An.- ou THE HERALD, SATURDAY, JULY o, 1898.of pedagogy, started by rail at half-past | six in the morning.In an hour they reached Grossheringen, and began their tramp.The work aecomplished that day was varied and interesting.The boys visited the castles, met a party of girls on a school journey, examined the towérs, stopped to ask the peasants about their work in the fields, went to the cathedral of Nanburg, and arrived at last by rail at Freiburg at ten o'clock at night, a tired, satisfied company of youngsters, more ready for bed than anything else.Some of \u2018the lads had bedrooms, but most of them slept in a large room above the stables at the inn, in improvised beds that were far more attractive than the regulation article.Thus the first day of the school journey came to an end.During all the trip the boys behaved well.They did as they were told, and always asked permission before they attempted to do anything that might interfere with the harmony of the party.There was a touch of military discipline about the regulations of the school journey, but it was tempered with much geniality and kindness on the part of the masters.\\ Miss Fret and Miss Laugh, Cries little Miss Fret, In à very great pet : \u201cI hate this warm weather, it\u2019s horrid to tan.It scorches my nose, And it blisters my toes, And wherever I

July | St.Nicholas, \u201cTim: a Parrot Story.\u201d Mrs.Boner says: Soon after Tim came into my possession, T noticed that at nightfull he became res- | tive; and often while making ready for his cage for the night I said: Tim wants to go to bed,\u201d frequently adding \u201cso bad.\u201d It was not long before, at the first.shade of twilight, he would let me know he was sleepy by saying: \u201cTim wants to go to bed.He wants to go to bed so bad,\u201d\u2014always speaking of himself in the third person.Afterwa™, by teaching, he acquired the use of the word \u201cI.\u201d Now, on hearing the sunflower or other seed poured into his cup for feeding, he will exclaim: \u201cOh, I'm poing to get such a nied dinner!\u201d For it appened that I spoke of his food as \u2018\u2018dinner\u201d whenever I gave it to him, and having heard it so called, he cannot be induced to change the phrase to \u201cbreakfast\u201d or \u201csupper.\u2019 \u2019 Sometimes before covering him at night I say: \u201cKiss your mother good night\u2014here,\u201d presenting my lips ahd smacking them; at which he will sidle to the bars of his cage and very gently touch my lips with his open bill.Only once he, like the monkey that married the baboon\u2019s sister, \u201ckissed so hard he raised a blister.\u201d I scolded him severely for the rudeness, and he semed to understand.If I do not kiss him good night he is sure to say: \u201cKiss your mother good night\u2014here,\u201d smacking his bill.He never says, \u201cKiss me good night.\u201d Time has never known the commonplace name of \u201cPolly,\u201d and he has never been asked by me if he wanted a cracker.I have always been alert to check any visitor who was about to ask the old question.\u201cDoes Polly want a cracker?\u2019 With the same caution I have checked the \u201cHowdy do, Polly?\u201d by requesting the visitor to sny, \u201cHowdy do, Tim?\u201d Tim semed to have noted my wish to exclude \u201cPolly\u201d from his list of words.One day a lady called, and, on discovering the bird, exclaimed: \u201cWhy, howdy do, Polly?\u2019 He immediately corrected her by replying, \u201cSay, howdy do, Tim?\u201d So much by way of ijlustratin the fact that a parrôt knows how to ap ty intelligently the phrases that he acquires in mimicry.In the few further examples that I shall give of Tim's talking, let it be understood that he repeats only what he has heard, but the reader will notice his tact in applying his remarks, as if he knew their meaning, Frequently, when my hushand is leaving for the city, Tim calls after him, \u201cGoodby, John.\u201d It need hardly be explained how the bird learned that phrase., In some way he knows when we are eating at table, perhaps from having occasionally been in the dining-room at meal-time, and from noting the table-noises made b knife and fork, cup and saucer, ete.He often calls out at such time, wherever he may be, \u201cWhat are you eating?Is it good ?\u201d\u201d « We have a Scotch-Irish terrier named Jack,\u201d and @ huge jet-black cat named Tony,\u201d who often engage in a friendly tussle.Sometimes, when Jack has been too rough for Tonv, I have encouraged the cat by saying, \u201cWhip him, Tony! whip him!\u201d As the cat and dog are almost hourly at their play of racing and wrestling, it is a common thing to hear Tim,

Dr.Ward's Blood and Nerve Pills cure disease and make the system safe, the following evidence amply proves : I suffered for two years with what the family doctor claimed was an incurable tase of consumption and debility, telling ne that my life was but for a few months tt the best.As I was about to give up, I picked up your advertisement and resolved thereupon to give Dr.Ward's Blood and Nerve Pills a trial.The first box of them worked such a wonderful change I felt that at last I had struck a medicine that would help me.I continued the use of the Pills, receiving from \u2018hem day by day flesh, strength and vigor, in fact friends of mine that had not seen me for some time hardly knew me, so great was the change that Dr.Ward's Pills worked.Out of the fullness >of my heart in the joy of my being rescued from the grave, comes this testimonial, I shall, as long as God permits me tc live, herald forth their usefulness and life-saving power to all afflicted by that monster of disease that almost claimed me for its victim, thereby repaying you in a small measure for the grand, new lease of life Dr.Ward's Blood and Nerve Pills have given me.Yours truly, JOHN P.THORP, Cork

M.PH.Roy, advocate, and president of the East Valley of the Richelieu Railway, which is being constructed, invited a few friends to à lice over the part which is built, that is from Iberville to St.George of Henryville, a distance of about thirteen miles.The Cxcursionists were agreeably surprised to find this new road in excellent working order, well ballasted and perfectly steady.Alter having taken dinner at the terminus, the train was boarded once more and it proceeded to Clarenceville,, where a large crowd of men are putting the finish.Ing touches to the rails and ballast.À feature of this new road is a fine bridge which crosses \u2018the South river, and which is twenty-one hundred feet in length.The roud goes through a very fertile country and will prove a boon for the inhabitants, who had been trying to secure it for twenty years, Mr.Verge, son of Dr.Verge, the well- known physician of Quebec, is a guest at Captain O.A.Fages, adjutant of the St.John\u2019s Royal Infantry School.Mr.Jules Clement, son of an old resi- sicnt of this town, Mr.J.EK.Clement, is spending a few days here.The Provincial Government here ap- pomnted the following officers for the court of this district: Mr.A.E.L\u2019Ecuyer, deputy prothonotary of the Superior Court, deputy elerk of the Circuit Court, deputy c'erk of the Crown and Peace; Mr.Arthur Lanier, crier, and Mr.M.Brossard assistant crier.Those nominations were neces- siated by the change of system introduced 5 the Marchand Government in the judicial administration of the district.There is every sign that the river will become more and more popular among those who are fond of nautical pleasures.lhe fine steamer, the Island Queen, is being kept busy carrying daily large crowds of excursionists up.to Isle aux Noix, Rouse\u2019s Point, Plattsburg, and other enjoyable summer resorts on Lake Champlain.Messrs.Purke, Brennan and Fahey, professors of the Academy of St.Mary at Montreal, spent Wednesday here, and visited the town while waiting for the night train to Magog where they propose to enjoy a few days fishing on Lake Mem- phremagog.Mr.Brennan will leave his two friends and go to New York, where he is to take the steamer for Ireland; his Native country.He will return in the first days of September.The proof that St.John\u2019s is gaining every day in popularity as a summer resort amongst strangers lies in the fact that quite a number of young gentlemen of Montreal geem to make it a point to take the afternoon train every day to spend their evenings at the popular yacht club.À certain number of members of the Fish and Game Club of this town, accompanied by friends, amongst whom were Mr.Arthur Cherrier, broker, of Montreal, Dr.Pratt, Messrs.Rouleau, Francoeur, Mr.and Mrs.St.Mars, of Longueuil, started Thursday evening on board of the Adrienne, owned by Mr.Edouard Arpin, for a few days\u2019 comfortable rest at the Club\u2019s ilouse on the Richelieu river, five miles from St.John's, At the last meeting of the Town Council Councillor Lue Papineau gave notice of motion that he would propose at the next ritting the adoption of a by-law for the granting of a bonus of twenty thousand dollars to the Canada Stone and China ware Company of this town.Major Wadmore, in command of No.3 regimental depot of St.John\u2019s, and Brigade Major of the Laprairie camp, has

back from a two-days\u2019 sojourn at Portland, where he accompanied the Royal Scots of Montreal.He speaks in glowing terms of the reception which was given to the Canadian battilion.The body of the four-year-old child of Mr.Joseph Roy, of Iberville, which was drowned Sunday last, has been found floating near the Whitfield manor, below Jones\u2019 bridge, opposite the convent where she was being brought up.Her funeral took place on Wednesday last.Mr.Alphonse Morin, prothonotary of this district, left this morning with his mother and two nieces for Montmagny, which is the place of his

maintenance of good roads.It is claimed that the considerable sum collected in the way of taxes from the bicyclists should be expended on the improvement of the roadways, Fifty cents is the bicycle

penalty of $10.A very interesting relic is in the possession of a well-known farmer of the parish of Longueuil.It is the sign-board of the old \u201cKing\u2019s Ferry,\u201d which was kept by one Joseph Simmonds, an Englishman, in the early part of the present century.This ferry was located between the Cote de Moir- road, on the south shore, and the Jacques Cartier Square Market wharf, on the north shore.The crossing was near the head of St.Helen\u2019s Island.The relic was purchased by the father of the present owner, when Simmond\u2019s effects were sold, about the year 1829.The sign-board is about two feet six inches by three feet six inches, and bears the words \u201cEnglish House\u201d in gilt letters, together with the sign of a batteau and some Masonic symbols.This old ferryman used to ciprge the equivalent of half a dollar a piece for conveying soldiers across the river, and even then he would make them do the rowing.Sim- monds used to relate with pride how he had ferried Lieut.-General Sir George Pre- vost, Bart., who was then Governor-in- Chief and commander of the forces in all British North America.Simmonds also drove Sir George in a coach-and-four to St.Johns, Que., via Laprairie.This incident must have occurred between June, 1811, and early in 1814, during which time Sir George Prevost ably administered the affairs of the colony and successfully defended Canada against a numerous and formidable enemy.In Simmonds\u2019 time canoes were mostly used for foot passengers, and batteaux for live stock and freight.We learn from an old ferryman that six oxen were considered a load for a batteau.Horses were easily ferried, but pigs gave much trouble.Wheat in large quantities was transferred from the south shore to the city for shipment to Great Britain.Much grain also was ferried to the Seignor\u2019s Mill, then located at the dam which existed wHere the swift current runs between St.Helen\u2019s Island and lle Ronde.No trace of the mill or dam can now be found.STE.ANNE DE BELLEVUE Dominion Day was the oecasion which prompted Mr.Peter E.Brown, the well- known real estate agent, to invite a large number of his friends to a picnic on his lovely property, L'Isle de Tourtes.This icturesque island is situated on the Ottawa River, about two or three miles from the village of Ste.Anne\u2019s.Mr.Brown has given a great deal of care to the improvement of his property, which is now noted for its beauty.His workmen are employed all the year round in making roads, clearing paths, planting, ete.On the east side of the island a fine stone wall has been erected as a protection against the river, which rushes past in a swift current and washes away the shore.It is over eight feet high, and is three feet wide at the top.On the beautiful grounds were assembled on Friday last over sixty guests, who enjoyed themselves thoroughly.They were taken up to the island in Mr.A.L.Kent's yacht, which had in tow seven skiffs and a large scow, nll of which were gaily deeorated with flags and bunting.Amongst those present were :\u2014Mr.A.L.Kent and family, Mr.F.Lemieux and family, Mr.and \"Mra.Charles Laurendeau, Mr, H.E.Archam- bault,

Mr.and Mrs.Quisotte Daoust, Miss Dandurand and many others.The large party left Ste.Anne's at about nine o\u2019clock in the morning, and passed the whole day on the island.At- ter lunchean had been served, the afters noon was passed pleasantly in the woods.In the evening the whole island was brilliantly illuminated with countless Chinese lanterns, and dancing was the order of the night.It was not until after midnight that the picnickers returned to Ste.Anne\u2019s, all having enjoyed a most delightful outing, and passed a Dominion Day which will linger as a pleasant memory for a long time to come.Amongst the latest arrivals at the Clarendon Hotel, which is more popular than ever this season, may be mentioned the following : \u2014F.W.Boschen and family, Montreal; W.W.Smith, Cornwall;

extra day, Saturday, taken by the business men, combined with the splendid weather made the holiday a real good one and nearly everyone took advantage of it.Picnic parties to Sher ringham Park and other points on Isle Perrot, and nshing expeditions were the order of the day.The beautiful steam yachts belonging to Mr.E.Kent and Ir.Leslie R.Dowker and containing their friends were out for a day

of children in aid of the outing fund of the Foundling Hospital.Misses Mabel Robinson and Kathrine Boyd were the organizers of the entertainment which proved a success beyond all expectations.The whole affair was arranged and conducted by the children without any assistance from the old fo.ss.The programme consisted of tableaux, recitations and songs, concluding with a very pretty May-pole dance.Master Oxley filled the important part of cnair- man with marked dignity and aptness.The following children took part: \u2014Misses ouise and Edith .arrower, Kathrine and Edith Boyd, Dorothy and Edith Robinson, Muriel Parks, Marjory and Amy\u201d Pyke, Rhoda Kelly, and Masters Percy Bailey, and Lawrence and Fritz Kelly.At the close of the programme there was a sale of refreshments in which fhe entire stock was rapidly disposed of, Mr.Geo.1uvinson, successfully auctioning off the surplus cake.As the result of it all a very creditable amount was realized, which will go to gladden some childish hearts this summer.On Thursday and Friday afternoon, and evening the Ladies\u2019 Aid Society of St.James Church held their annual bazaar, in the boat-house.Very prettly adorned tables were heaped with useful and fancy work of all kinds,and there were ice-cream, lemonade, and other refreshments wihtout stint.The Misses Pyke, Thompson, Hep- worth, McNeil and other ladies of the congregation officially presided at the different tables, and were kept busy disposing of ther wares.u.e summer residents purchased liberally, and the proceeds will no doubt be quite satisfactory.As the dog-star\u2019s reign waxes, the tor- tunate dwellers at the Heights rejoice in the cool breezes which render it possible to sleep restfully, and the men of the families soon forget the long ride out from town in the beauty of the evening by or on the lake.The Rev.C.J.James of St.George's Churcn conducted the service at St.James on Sunday morning, and the excellence of his sermon was the 1W:me

of the residents of Pointe Claire.The site chosen is that of the old G.T.R.wharf.For many weeks past this question has been discussed, some few people desiring to have the wharf in front of the church.Thi was not by any means what the genera] public desired, and was the plan of a fey who were interested in real estate in that neighborhood.At a meeting of the Town Council held on Monday last, a very largely signed petition was presented, urging the desirability of placing the wharf at the place where the old G.T.R.wharf is located.It was stated that the petition wag signed by all but twelve of the inhabitant, of Pointe Claire.The Council decided ty place the petition in the hands of Mr.Nap, Charbonneau, ex-M.P.for Jacques Cartier County, for the purpose of having it forwarded to the Hon.J.I.Tarte, Minister of Public Works.Tt is confidently expected that Mr.Tarte\u2019s decision will Le favorable, and that the work will be begun about the 1st August.Mr.Arsene Charlebois, who was elected in January, 1897, was, in May of that year, served with a notice that proceedings quo warranto had been taken against him by Mr.F.X.Allard, questioning his qualifications as a councillor.In January of this year the Superior Court decided in Mr.Charlebois\u2019 favor, but the case was carried to the Review Court, and on Thursday last that court gave its decision finally confirming Mr.Councillor Charlebois in his seat, The case is one which has excited a great deal of interest in Pointe Claire, and 1\u20ac, Charlebois received the hearty congratulations of his many friends on the successful issue of the case.On Thursday evening last the third concert and bonnet hop of the season was given at the Boat Club and, as usual, was very successful, a large attendance of the summer residents being present.Pointe Claire this year is enjoying a larger share of popular favor as a summer resort than has been the case for many Years.Almost every cottage is rented, and the season is a gayer one than this favorite Yesort has known for a long time, LAPRAIRIE, .The camp has done much towards making this week a record ome in Laprairie annals.The dinners given by the officers, the concerts at the Club House and at camp, the dances and receptions, all these ve kept the town in a continal stir, and, consequently have done much in the way of amusement for the many summer residents.The concert at the Club House was a success.Everyone who was present was well pleased with the programme, and as to the \u201chop,\u201d the erowd who enjoyed the dance was enthusiastic in its praise.The next \u201csoiree de gala\u201d will take the form of a \u201cmasquerade hop.\u201d The date has not yet been settled, but it will probably take place on or about the 23rd inst, The church parade of the various battalions took place last Sunday.The detachment which went to Roman Catholic Church was under the of Lieut.-Col.Aubrey, and the one which paraded to the Anglican Church was commanded by Lieut.-Col.McArthur.In both churches appropriate services were The concert given at the camp by the officers and men, was a very \u201cchic\u2019\u201d affair.An immense bonfire was erected near the staff mess, together with an improvised stage.The programme was en elaborate one, comprising singing, dancing, sword exercise, squad dmill, etc, etc.Brigade Sergt.-Majar Roberts, R.R.C.L, and Staff-Sergt.Allan, who got up the affair, at the instance of Lieut.-Col.Gordon and Major Wademore, deserve much ec .Last might the Boating Club made a little change in their usual programme, and, instead of having the \u201chop\u201d on Sat- y, as always, they danced last night, on account of the breaking up of camp this morning.The officers were thus enabled to attend, which they willingly did.A very pleasant evening was spent.re) DORVAL, There is a large number of visitors at Dorval at the present time.Among the arrivals are:\u2014Miss Gordon, Guelph, Ont.;

always been the sporty of the people in this country.From the earliest days of settled communities rac ing has been patronized here, and the racehorse has been of real service and great value.There is not in the whole record, even of tlie harness torse or America, a family of greater utility than that which traces to the Canadian horse, and the gpeed and reputation of that early sensational trotter, Maud S., are founded on the Pilot strain of blood, which came from Canada.It is with the thoroughbreds, though, that The Herald deals more particularly to-day, and the thoroughbred has been of immense value tn the horse-breeding \u2014_intere«ts of this country.Nowhere is there any dispute that the test of the racecourse is necessary for the determination of the best horse, and in no country has the horse of the racecourse been of so great importance as here.But for racing the farm.to be the best, but a great contest may of contest for it.be expected, and certainly a new mile re- ccrd for the Bel-Air course.Among the owners represented are Bennington & Gardner, Burns & Waterhouse, Beck, D.A.Boyle, J.P.Dawes, N.Dy- ment, Ed.Fitzgerald, Mrs.L.D.Gray, Wm.Hendrie, Mrs.W.W.Lyles, Hugh McCarren, A.M.Orpen, Rothest & Gor- man, J.E.Seagram, Harry Stover and other prominent turfmen.The Forest and Stream Stake, also worth $1,000, is for two-year-olds, to run five furlongs, and has only three nominations.In the Bel-Air Stake of $1,000, at a mile and an eighth, entrance money has been paid for 79 horses, and 75 are named in the St.Lawrence Stake of $1,000, for two-year-olds.These figures will give some idea of the real importance and extent of the coming race meeting.Another feature that will be particular- lv gratifying, will be the appearance nere of the racing jackets of all the prominent Ontario owners, Mr.Wm.Hendrie, .ur.J.E.Seagram, M.P., Mr.N.Dyment, Mr.Robt.Davies, Mr.Joseph Duggan, Messrs.Gates and Elliott, Mr.Adam Beck, Messrs.Rothest and Gorman, Mr.W, F.Maclean, M.P.; Mr.A.M.Orpen, Mr.Johan Brennan.The steeplechasing, always so popular here, will be seen at its best.Never were so many fast and well-schooled jumpers out in one season in Canada, and lovers of the cross-country game will find much to please them in the programme at Bel-Air.In the first steeplechase at the present Fort Xrie meeting twenty-six horses were entered, and fields of fifteen and twenty the flags at Bel-Air.Taken all round Montrealers may expect to see during this month the most brilliant and successful race meeting ever held in Canada.SECRETARY WALTER O.PARMER.Secretary Walter O.Parmer, the organizer of the Highland Park Club, has been a leading spirit on the turf for many vears, and helped to build up racing in Western America to its present high standard.As secretary at Nashville, Tennessee, and in other cities, his endeavors MR.W.O.PARMER, SECRETARY HIGII- LAND PARK CLUB.ers of this country would never have had the blood of War Cry, of Milesian, of Terror, and all the other sires whose blood has done so much to make the Canadian horse a prized article in the markets of the world.Racing, then, 13 founded on a basis of utility as well as of clean and wholesome recreation.It was in cross-country racing, particularly, that Montreal excelled in the earlier days, and old-timers of the Quebec turf can easily recall the period when horses from this city and province were unequalled in America as steeplechasers.This was true even before the time when Mr.J.Dawes swept the field with those grand \u201cleppers,\u201d Rose and Charlemagne, before Dr.Craik owned Day Star, and back to the times when Paterson in New | Jersey was the headquarters of racing in the Eastern States.The revival of these ancient glories will be seen when the big meeting opens at Bel-Air on the 14th of July.Its predecessor on the same course and under the same management, two years ago, was a brilliant success, and proved that the public here are anxious for its repetition, for no more enthusiastic crowd than the 5,000 people who saw Sir Wilfrid \u2014then plain Mr.Laurier\u2014present to the winning owner the Queen\u2019s Plate of 1896 at Bel-Air, was ever gathered on a Cana- diam course.It is beyond any question that the coming meeting will far surpass the racing of two years ago.Racehorses will be here in such numbers that it is R matter of great trouble to find accommodation for them all.The class of entries is very high, as might be expected, from the fact that on the programme are four stakes of $1,000 each, far more money than was ever given in this province for several years\u2019 racing.The Windsor Hotel Stake is of tue guaranteed value of $1,000, and the distance is a mile, the entries reaching the enormous number of one hundred and two.Of course, the starters will only be those that the season\u2019s racing has proved have always been toward the elevation of the Sport, and he is known and liked by horSemen everywhere.Mr.Parmer 1s a native of Alabaina, and has been a a breeder of racing stock, \u201cbesides maintaining a racing stable for many years.Through Mr.Parmer\u2019s efforts and popularity.the Cumberland Park meetings at Nashville have become an institution, and it was Mr.Parmer\u2019s ability as a racing secretary that made the success of the meetings at Windsor, Ont, and at the ! Grosse Point track in Detroit, Mich.Mr.Parmer was the first racing secretary of the latter track, and during his connection with it, the meeting was one of the best ever given in the West.Mr.Parmer\u2019s popularity was the magnet which drew a majority of the best stables to Detroit, and it is that same popularity which has drawn so many horses and the owners to the northern racing circuit.Mr.Par- mer is no stranger to Montreal.The meeting given at Bel-Air two years ago was under his supervision, and \u2018was the best ever given in this city.More horses started in the races, and the sport was by far the best ever offered to the lovers of racing in Montreal.During his visit to Montreal Mr.Parmer made very warm friends among the best people in the city, \u2018and especially among those who love the sport of racing, and are working for its upbuilding in the biggest city in Canada.Mr.Parmer saw the possibilities for the sport at &is first visit, and comes back again with a majority of the best racing stables in Canada and America to the coming Bel-Air meeting.The Herald Cup One of the handsomest prizes to be competed for at the Bel-Air meeting this month is the Herald cup.1t is a beautiful example of the silversmith\u2019s art, being valued at $250.It was presented by the Montreal Herald Company in 1893, and each year since has witnessed spirited and exciting races for it.meeting, and next to the Queen\u2019s Plate is the most important race of the meet.The race for which the cup is awarded is called \u201cThe Herald Hunter\u2019s Handicap Flat.\u201d The conditions have been that the race was for qualified hunters of the year preceding and the year of the race, to be ridden by members of any recognized Bu f yo MR.PARMER AND JUDGE CARTER DISCUSSING THE SITUATION.Ai ; , veg Toph pa sou 2.898047 S05 J.EAE RAS ANAS 4% ne * Adam | horses will be seen performing between : It is now looked upon as one of the features of the Bel-Air hunt of Canada or the United States, or!

the Dominion.A son of the highly esteemed president of the Canadian Jockey Club and past president ot the Ontario Jockey Club, Mr.William Hendrie, of Hamilton, he éould not fail to be a lover of the sport of kings.\u2018The brown and yellow jacket of the Valley IFarm Stable has been an ornament to the Canadian turf since the days when the late Mr, John Hendrie was the first master of Fox Hounds in Toronto and one of the most daring and clever ol cross.country riders.The Hendrie stable will always hold its place of horor on the twit, for it is purely a sporting establishment.Nobody knows how much it costs mr.Hendrie to maintain his breeding and racing establishments of thoroughbreds, but they mean the expenditure of a large sum of money.It is hardly probable that they even pay their way in the matter of financial returns, but it is not financial profit that Mr.Hendrie seeks.The sport of the turf is his chief recreation, and he considers himself well repaid for all his outlay in the plesaure he derives from seeing his youngsters grow and develop and train into horses capable of carrying his colors to the front on many a field.It is a matter of keen delight to the real lover of the horse to see his own nt their daily morning exercise, even if they never ran a race.This is the true sporting spu:t that.has maintalned the high standard of the Canadian turf.Mr.(George M.Hendrie

Canada is Mr.Alex ander Maclaren, of Buckingham, Que., who is to-day the owner of one of the finest racing and breeding establishments on the continent, embracing in his string some ot the best known performers on the American turf.Judging from the prominence Mr.Maclaren has attained in the breed: ing world, one would expect to find a man much older in years than he really is, and when \u2018he presented himself to a Herald man on a recent visit to his beautiful home in Buckingham the writer had to look twice before he could convince himselt that this young man should have attaine:! so high a place in the financial and breeding world.While Mr.Maclaren is under forty, he looks less than thirty, and has a quiet, charming manner of entertainment that makes a visit to the Maclaren stock farm a pleasure to anticipate and one ta be remembered.Buckingham, while it has some pretensions as a town, is better known as the home of the millionaire lumber king, who is its mainstay, employing some hundreds of hands, both in his mills and on his extensive limits to the north.The town is reached by the C.P.R.is a hundred miles north of Montreal, and twenty miles from the Capital.The town itself is three miles from the depot, which is reached through picturesque avenues of pine, making the drive a pleasant one, and only tos short to the man used to the monotony ot city life.The town itself is separated from the Maclaren property by the Lievre river.1 don\u2019t know why they call it the Lievre river, but the Mad River would seem to be more appropriate.It is always in chaos, and presents a most beautiful scene, as it dashes and foams this way and that way until its course is directed to the great mills standing out on its extreme edge.For miles the water is lashed into a white foam as it leaps and plunges from one fall to another on its way to the Ottawa, into which it bursts three and a half miles further down.Not even the \"the admixture of the prepotent blood of Ameri- 4+0+0+4 ideal roadster.He is a sure foal- getter, and when his stock is developed his rich producing blood will be in evidence.A study of his pedigree at once indicates his grand individuality.S highly is Larabie thought of by those who know him best and are in a position to study his merits that when Arion, 2.07%, fell sick, Mr.J.Malcolm Forbes, one of the best known and wealthiest breeders in the United States, selected Larabie to fill his engagements, and he served some of the best mares on Ponkapog Farm.I'he Poston Globe said:\u2014\u201clt is an ill wind that blows nobody good.Arion\u2019s illness has given another great young horse a chance to mate with some of the royal matrons at Ponkapog.Last week the Globe exclusively printed the infor mation that Larabie, the handsome son of Jay Bird, that swept the trotting classes at the horse show, was taken ovel to the Forbes\u2019 farm for a short season.It was found that with Bingen\u2019s training season in front of him his stud duties would be too heavy for him, so Larabie was Mr.Forbes\u2019 choice to replace him.\u201d Since experience upholds the law lf heredity, Larabie ought to be a great producing sire.No intelligent horseman will deny the greatness of George Wilkes as a sire, and his most successful cross was with the progeny of Mambring Chief.George Wilkes had 84 in the 2.30 list, and out of these 22 had the blood of Mam- brino Chief, over 26 per cent.And when to such a strong cross is added a judicious ican Clay, one of the greatest of brood mare sires, the produce could be nothing but a grand individuality and one which must transmit his good qualities.; Larabie is by Jay Bird (2.31%), one of the best producing sons of George Wilkes (2.92).His dam is Kate Brooks, dam of three in the list, by Abdalbrino, full brother of Princeps, a son of Woodford Mambrino out of Woodbine, the dam of Wedgewood.Woodford Mambrino is by Mambrino Chief, sire of Mambrino Patchen, the grand sire of Joe Patchen.ALEX ANDER MACLAREN, BUCKINGHAM, QUE.upper rapids of Niagara represent to me so much grandeur and majesty as these unchained waters in their frantic haste onward.Although a busy man, Mr.Maclaren kindly gave the best part of an afternoon to the writer in a pleasant ramble througn his splendidly equipped stables and over his brood meadows, where some of the choicest trotting blood in Canada grazes on its luxuriant pasture.Mr.Maclaren\u2019s home is built on a slight elevation, and immediately in the rear and almost out of sight behind a ravine which runs through the farm are located the stables.The stables, as will be imagined, leave nothing to be required for the proper care of horses.Built of brick, with concrete floor, they are provided with modern ventilation and every appliance for the treatment and care of the stock.There are not many handsomer quarters for their purpose in Canada, certainly none more convenient, from the arrangement of the box stalls to the runway for mares and stallions.Some distance further west are additional stables for winter purposes, all provided with spacious box stalls, modern provision bins, water troughs, ete.Larabie\u2019s second dam, Miss Anderson, is by American Clay, while in Larabie\u2019s fourth dam, the Gano mare, we have a foundation of good thoroughbred blood, her sire, Gan, being by the great four-mile race horse American Eclipse, an inbred son of Imported Diomed.And right here is the evidence of another of those admirably fitting \u2018\u2018nicks\u201d so prominent in Lara- bie\u2019s pedigree, for Mambrino Chief\u2019s most successful cross was with Gano mares, his most noted performer, Lady Thorn (2.181), winner of 106 heats in 2.30 or better, being out of the Rhodes mare by Gano, and his best producing son, Mambrino Patch- en, 58, sire of 22 in the list, and of the dams of 126 in 2.30 or better, was also out of the Rhodes mare.Of Jay Bird\u2019s (Larabie\u2019s sire) 63 foals in the list, only one is a pacer, and every one of them is noted for gameness and capacity to train on.His son Allerton (2.09}) was a lion-hearted campaigner, and in the stud has made a record never before equalled, in 1896 having 15 foals to enter the list, while in 1897 twenty of his descendents obtained records of 2.30 and better.Kagle Bird (2.21) was another game race horse, and though only a| | 1

trainer, J.Peacock, develops the youngsters and watches the work of the more advanced steppers.[Looking nortn stretches a beautiful upland meadow of a hundred acres or more, fringed with a healthy growth of old pines, making the surroundings an ideal home of equine rest, such as only a Dickey could portray.The premier stud, it need hardly be raid, is l.arabie, or more correctly speaking, Larabie the Great, 2.12%, 30,343, one of the grandest trotting stallions that scientific breeding has been able to produce.Larabie is not a show horse, as his long list of performances will hear evidence.He was foaled in 1892.He is a horse of commanding presence, possessed of good size, substance and carriage.Standing 16.1 hands high, he weighs in the neighborhood of 1,200 pounds.Ile is a rich bay in color, with a star in the fore head and off fore ankle white.His disposition is gentle, and the horse does not \u201cstep that is more reliable or looks more young horse in the stud, has now 28 of his get in the list.Larabie was unquestionably one of the best race horses in the three-year-old division of his year\u20141895, the only year he was campaigned.Ikarly in the spring of 1895 he was taken with distemper, and the veterinary surgeons who watched hin aiterwards believed that he suffered from (ts etfects during the entire season, and Many men competent to judge are of the opinion that this debilitating trouble alone prevented him from a campaign which uMight have been one of the most success- tul and sensational in the history of the trotting turf.As it was, the summaries of his races tell a tale of marvellous speed and great endurance.Starting eight timès he was five times first, once second, once third and unplaced but once, that time in the Kentucky Futurity for three-year-olds.At Philadelphia his trouble of the spring came on again, and after his race there he was shipped to Kentucky in hope that he would round to in time for this great event.But it was a vain hope, for the per THE HERALD, SATURDAY, JULY 9, 1898 horse.Had he been right this race was conceded to him as à gift.lt may be noted that in his Detroit race he beat the winner of the Futurity (Uakland Baron) in much faster time than the Kutur- ity was won in.At Columbus, Ohio, his first start, he was given an easy race and won \u2018third money.On the 16th July he faced the starter with 11 others at Tiffin, Ohio, in the 2.40 class, winning in straight heats \u2018n 2.16 14, 2.1512, 2.1534.His next start was at Detroit on July 23, in a race which brought out one of the strongest fields of three-year-olds ever seen on the turf.Among the competitors were such good cnes as Oakland.Baron, Boreal, Scourine, Killona, Fkred Xohl, Miss Kate, Derby Princess and Hampton.In the first heat Larabie was off his stritle when the word was given, and the field was well away before he recovered.By a s»lendid Maclaren\u2019s stock, the concluding notes being merely passing justice to some of the best stock that Canada can boast of.Wistful, 2.11 1-4, is a brown mare eight years old, by Wedgewood, dam Lady Al- mont, by Bostock\u2019s Almont.She has been in her present owner\u2019s possesion for four years and her total earnings represent $15,000.She is a remarkable instance of a mare who has been steadily raced since she was a yearling and has come through absolutely sound.She has a foal by Larabie.She will be worked with the object of reducing her record.Quaddy Girl, 2.34 1-4, is a six-year-old bay bv Domineer by Red Wilkes, dam Lady Norwood by Norwood.She is more than likely to reduce her record around 2.20.Eagle Belle by mare, four years filly.lagle Bird is a green old, and a promising ARABIE, 2.123, THE PLOPERTY OF MR.ALEX.MACLAREN,

and Kiulona went off at a terrible pace.On the first turn Larabie was so crowded that his toot struck Au | lona\u2019s sulky wheel and he went to a break and finished last.Then the talent\u2019 thought he was done, and it was here that he showed that while he inherited speed he had also a good measure of that other great characteristic of all the Jay Bird foals, gameness and endurance, and from 8th position he stepped around the field and won the fifth heat and the race in 2.17, a half a second faster than the previous heat.A five heat race where the time is a shade over 2.16, is pratty stiff medicine for a three-year-old, but Larabie showed no ill effects from it, and the following week, July 29th, at Cleveland, O., he defeated Fred Kohl and Geddes, winning the fourth heat in 2.12 3-4, his present record.On this occasion he could have trotted in 2.10 had he been asked to.Adebel is a full sister to Abdell, 2.23, which is the championship yearling record of the world.She is by Advertiser, 2.154, | dam Beautiful Bells by The Moore.Beautiful Bells had eighteen foals sixteen ot which sold for figures representing over $200,000.She has eleven in the list.Ad- ebel\u2019s second dam was Minnie Ha Ha, with -nine in the list.Nana, an eight-year-old bay mare by Hermit, 2.161-2, dam Mary Kinkead by Hero of Thorndale, has been bred to Lar- abie.Winever, a four-year-old chestnut mare lost a likely foal by Larabie this spring for which Mr.Maclaren had a standing offer of $500 when it was six months old.She is by Tonquin, 2.28, by Lord Russell; dam Seclusion by Hermit, 2.16 1-2.Harry Giddings, of Oakville, four years ago sold a half interest in Tonquin for $6,000 to the Austrian Government.Mississippi Maid is a brown mare nineteen years old, and can show a 2.40 gait.She is a great foal getter.She is the dam of Arona, 2.21 1-4, and Albani, 2.22 1-4, and will likely have three more in the list J.H.WARDLOW, MONTREAL Mr.Maclaren refused $21,000 for Lara- bie as a

stallions kept for service, anu the championship stallien ribbon, beating the New York Horse Show winner, Daredevil.He took second at the same show in 1897, althougn a decided favorite with the press and puv- le.In September, 1897, he swept the boards at the Canada Exhibition at Ottawa.This spring at the Toronto Horse Show he took finst prize.His service fee is $30.Larabie will be given a few races this fall, with a view ot lowering his record.Another grand \u2018individual in Mr.Maclar- en's stable is the standard bred trotting stallion Duke of Arklan, 25649, with à record of 2.29 1-4, won in the fourth heat over a half mile track.He is a beautiful seal brown, standing 16 2 hands high.Ali: strongly built, well muscled individuals.cof Mr.Maclaren\u2019s stock, by the way, are He has

raisers and horse breeders in America is a woman and what is more, she is a Canadian.Few people have not beard of Mrs.Elaza M.Jones of Brockville, Ont., owner of the best herd of Jersey cattle in Canada and inci: dentally one of the most experienced and expert horsewomen in America.Mrs.Jones has made a success along lines that make the field of her operations unique fer her sex.Her success and indomitable perseverance probably has not a parallel anywhere on the continent.Her know- edge of the subject to which she has given the study of a life is not disputed by i.e most successful stockmen of the Dominion and her advice and judgment is accepted by experts as the best authority available on the subject of cattle breeuing.But it is not so much her success along these lines, considerable as it is world that will make reference to her here interesting.Belvedere, her country home, is situated about a mile and a half east of Srockvi.e, in a charming retreat surrounded on all sides by a spacious lawn and luxuriant foliage.lt was one of the | writer\u2019s pleasures on a recent visit to the Island City, to pay a visit to Belve- dere, which is approached by shaded avenues.The farm is a model of neatness land thrift.Everything was in its place land looked more like the country house | of a retired millionaire than the scene of | the largest Jersey ranch in America.As one looks around it is difficult to real- \"1ze that it has been the work of a woman, | Mrs.Jones was induced to tell the pub- i lic something of a life that cannot but | be full of interest\u2014certainly full of activ- | ity and resolute energy.; | \u201cAs a child,\u201d Mrs.Jones said, \u201c1 was taught to ride by my father, who, though a Scotchman, spent many years in Ireland, where his famed as a horseman and hunter still lives.I took to horses like a duck takes to water.No horse was too wild, no road too long; and well for me that it was so, because I lost my mother when only fourteen, and the cares of a large family fell entirely upon me, six children heing younger than I was.I taught them, sewed for them, nursed them, and kept house in an enormous, old-fashioned, inconvenient country house, and I often wonder now that I did not sink under the burden.The cows kept for family use had been put under my supervision by my dear mother, to induce me to leave my hooks, and my father always made a point of having a splendid horse kept for me, HY + SN Swgon 725, Ou, v Wi v CN \u20ac 0% 8, 0 2 fe S » \u201c» 9 es / | $ Mid Moy (Sl A ras ) fAGrano dJétog _ = 7% > Ma = ê > 1 country where the traveller, sated with an excess of conventional \u201cexcursions,\u201d will find much that is novel, much that will charm, and much that will ever remain to him as a sweet remembrance of a pleasant clime.\u2018lake a map and trace that line which, commencing at Montreal, continues irom Quebec down the Lower St., Lawrence to Nova Scotia, where it ends at the city of Halifax.To the east and west arms reach out to Pictou, Sydney and St.John, and another branch traverses Prince Edward Island.This is the Intercolonial Railway\u2014one of the most substantially constructed and best equipped lines in the world.It runs through hundreds of miles of just such a country as has been mentioned.Pleasure and sport may be enjoyed in numberless places, and yet the traveller will be within the reach of daily mails and telegraph, and may live like a prince at a very moderate outlay.The Western terminus of the Canadian Government Railway System, Intercolonial Division, is the City of Montreal, the com-! mercial capital and trade centre of Canada, ! lantic and the Pacific\u2014St.John, and Vancouver.The extension of the railway to Montreal has for some years been under advisement, and it is expected that traffic results will demonstrate the wisdom of the extension.Halifax Montreal, the metropolis of Canada, stands unrivalled in the extent and variety of its relations with other portions of the Dominion.The journey from Montreal, Que., is so easily made as to be a pleasure.Lhe iroute taken by the Government Railway System is the most easy and direct method \u2018oi communication between the two cities.l grom the depot in Montreal to the station \u2018at Levis, opposite Quebec, is 159 miles, or fourteen miles less than the shortest route before the new line was opened.Topographically, it is as near an air line as the physical conditions of the country will permis, as may be judged from the fact, that in the 115 miles composing what is there are 106 miles of tangents.As to grades, there are none in excess of 52 feet to the mile, and most of them are very much below that.On this portion of the Canadian Government Railway System, as on others, as fast time can be made as on any road in America.Quebec is a restful place, and a fitting point upon which to enter upon a land which offers rest.lt is unique among the cities of the continent.Could one forget his past and live only in the thought of his surroundings, he might imagine himself dropped down in some corner of Europe.To him who has come from the busy cities of the south and west, everything is strange and new.Other places anticipate the future; Quebec clings fondly to the past.The journey over the Intercolonial Railway begins at Montreal, and for the next three hundred miles or so, the traveller passes through a purely French-Canadian country.One after another the typical villages come into view with their low-ly- ing buildings and quaint cottages, built to withstand the keenest cold of winter.In the midst of these looms up the church, usually a substantial edifice of stone, while here and there a large wayside cross, on some distant hill, stands out in bold relief beauty against the sky.g'SLANDS RN, Sat oN, RSS FÉRIÉS SN SHY Q .RA J PPT Q a RON Se XD Sd Age Deft oN] barre 9 pannel across New Brunswick, and down its coast known as the Drummond County Railway, MER LAND OF CANADA 400040000000 +0 0000000000000 0000004000+0 0000000049 Riviere du Loup is a summer resort of long established reputation.A long and somewhat hilly road leads from the station to what, though apparently a part of the village, is known as Fraserville.Beyond this again is the St.Lawrence, with its splendid privileges for boating, shooting and fishing, in the proper season.Mention may be made of Murray Bay and Tadousac, but by far the most wonderful sight for the tourist is the famed Sag- uenay River.It is one of the most remarkable of Nature\u2019s works in a continent where natural wonders abound.Cacouna.Six miles below Riviere du Loup is Ca- couna station.The Cacouna of which the pleasure-seeker is in search is about two miles distant, and is reached by an easy drive over the smooth highway that descends to the shore.Then this great watering place of the Lower St.Lawrence invites the stranger to tarry and rest.Bic, the Beautiful.| A village on the low land by the shore, with mountains separating it from the country beyond, confronted the engineers \u2018when they sought to locate the line of | the Intercolonial Railway at a point fifty- \u2018five miles below Riviere du Loup.It was | Bic, then as now well termed \u2018\u2018the bcau- tiful,\u201d an artist\u2019s paradise.Little Metis.Little Metis is situated on the shore of the St.Lawrence at a point where the estuary begins to widen out so that the opposite shore is a faint line in the distance and much of the horizon is as level as upon the ocean.This gives the place more of the air of a seaside resort than many less- favored watering places, and the salt waves rolling in upon the sandy beach confirm the impression.The beach is about four miles long, smooth and safe for bathers.Metapedia Valley.Leaving the St.Lawrence, the course of the traveller is south to the Metapedia | Valley.Thousands are now familiar with it where hundreds had heard of it in other years.It has attractions for all.Those who seek the beautiful in Nature may here i find it, while those who are disciples of \"Nimrod or Walton will find the days only too short, and the weeks passing away all too swiftly.| \u2018Through the green valley the river winds in graceful curves, singing the music of the waters as it runs.In thirty miles of its course it has 222 rapids, great and small, now swift and deep, now gently rippling over beds of shining gravel and golden sand.Here and there are the deeper pools the link in the chain connecting the At-'in which lurk salmon of astounding size, for this is one of the salmon streams of which every fisherman has heard.The last of the Metapedia River is seen at the village which bears the same name, at the junction of the Restigouche.At the boundary of New Brunswick we catch sight of the River Restigouche.The river is thickly dotted with low-lying islands, rich with meadow land.Dalhousie.One of the fairest spots on thesline of the Intercolonial is found at Dalhousie.Even when this place was not connected with the railroad, it attracted large numbers of visitors, and now that it is so easy of access it is one of the most popular of summer resorts.Its location at the mouth of the Restigouche, where the glorious Baie des Chaleurs begins, would in any event make the site one of unusual beauty.The Baie des Chaleurs is one of the most beautiful havens in America.Ninety miles long and from fifteen to twenty-five wide, there cannot be found in its waters either rock or other hindrance to the safe passage of the largest of ships.For many miles the Intercolonial runs close to the shore.Gaspe.The land of Gaspe is out of the route of general travel, and is consequently out of the rut of the hackneyed excursion trips through Canada.From Cross Point to Port Daniel the highway is like one long village street.It is settled from one end to the other; house after house cheers the sight, while the prospect everywhere is such as to appeal to the keenest senses of those who love the beauties of nature.Among the salmon rivers of note be: tween the Restigouche and Gaspe Basin are the Little Cascapedia, Bonaventure, Grand and Little Pabos, Grand River, St.John, York and Dartmouth, but these by no means exhaust the list.The Grand River may be taken as a sample stream, having a dozen pools within sixteen miles of its mouth.It is not a big river as might be inferred from the name, but it is a fine one, abounding in striking scenery and with crystal waters fed by springs which make the stream of almost icy coolness, even in the hottest days of summer.Perce.one sees Perce can he an adequate conception of the of the scenery of the (Continued on Page 13) | Not until have A LL + qu South web a Heath Point 7 \u2014~ = aspe Bay G U Z F 0 F Te, |

with any kind of attention Alvin would have been one of the greatest trotters that the world ever saw \u2014certainly Canada, before nor since, with the exception of Royal Victor, 2.08 3-4, has produced nothing like him, -with all due respect to Golden Prince, Gold Ring, Geneva, Babette, Lord Ferguson, etc.Througnout a long session of campaigning he was never known to be sick a day, never wore a boot or any other modern contrivance for the development of speed; was always ready to eat at the proper time, and never cost his owners five cents further than the everyday wear and tear of the track.He stands to-day as the only Canadian-bred horse that ever won an American free-for-all, and that not only once, but so often, and under such ad- them did not have enough money to pay their hotel bills.The tollowing year he was taken down the grand circuit, and entered in all che 2.27 events.Starting at Delroit, he won in three straighs heats, and got a mark of 2.20.At Cleveland 12 also Won 1: straight heats, and lowered his mark to 2.13 1-4.Between Detroit and Cleveland Andy Welsh, the well-known bookmaker, 1s res puted to have drepped $15,000.le was eased up at Chicago, where Keno

the same track \u2018and got a record of 2.14 1-2, He didn\u2019t do uoything of nute until 1£91, At Detroit he was beaten by Rosebu4 Wilkes, Alvin reciprocating the defeat at Cleveland a day or two later by taking the money \u2018n straight bats At Detroit the following year Alvin only got third pluce in his class, Jack taking the heat, with Donny Wilmore second.At Cleveland Alvin won in straight leats, At Grand Rapids he won the stallion race of $10,299), going the three neuts in 2.14 1-2, 2.14} and 2.143} Here he defeated the erack stallions of the country, nclud- ing Tabasco, Fred.3.Wilkes, ete.Up to th.s time, 1 was the fastest three heat stallion race ever trotted.At Chicago he defeateu Jack, winning the second, fifth and sixth heats, and landing his mark to 2.13 1-4.In this race the fastest five heats up to that time went on record.At In- .dependence he drove out Martha Wilkes, | ge'ting second money.Martha won in 2.10, 2.081-4, 2.0812.In the last heat Alvin came the last half mile without a shoe.This was then the fastest three heats ever trotted in a race.In 1893, at Puffalo, in the third heat he established the stallion world\u2019s record up to that year by trotting a mile in 2.11.i the spring of i894 he was sold to the Russian Government, which was practically the end of a brilliant record, and one wkich all Canadians are proud of.Alvin wes a rich chestnut, stonding 16.2.1 hands high, a consistent and honest trotter.He couvldn\u2019t do anything else but that, since\u2019 the driver did not sit on a sulky who could keep him out of the lead if he had the speed to get there.At [ndianapolis, Ind., he was driven a half in 1.011-2, and a quarter in 28 seconds.At Chicago he was timed separately, the third heat in a race, a mile in 2.08 1-4.His brilliant victories were not enrolled without opposition, to the discreait of some of his opponents be it said.very kind of an obstacle was thrown in his way by his engmies, who had always lost heavily on him.It was a strange coincidence that in every instance he drew about the worst position he could have got in a race; harness and shoes were tampered with.In one case where he threw a shoe, the palpable carelessness of the blacksmith was apparent on examination of the foot.It subsequently turned out that the blacksmith had followed the horse to Chicago.In almost every heat he was driven out by a fresh horse, and on one occasion, in the deciding heat of a race, a dog was let on the track almost MR.J.P.DAWES\u2019 STEEPLECHASER, RED PAT.that they had partaken of fine steaks cut fromx a

Orpheus, dam Nancy, by Toronto Chief, Jr.He was bought as a colt by S.Smiley, who \u2018sold him to Thomas McNally, of Otterville, He early developed signs of speed, and as a three-year-old, he was bought by a syndicate composed of George Langs, I.Clare and Alvin Merrill.He saw his first race at Tilsonburg, where he was driven by George Langs, who handled him until, in 1894 he was sold to the Russian Government.In the spring of 1888, at Brantford, he was sent against the Canadian three-year-old record of 2.40, which he lowered easily to 2.32 1-4.The next year he was entered in all the four-year-old stake events in Canada and won everything in sight in straight heats, retiring at the end of the season with a record of 2.26 1-4.Even in this coe never saw, before or since, so much excitement as in this year, when Alvin MR.COLIN CAMPBELL, MONTREAL.is popular with the horsemen and the public alike.\u2019l'he secret of his success as & starter is attributed to his wonderful

those of the other two, and before his driver realized his position, his sulky was lifted over the hubs of the other two.So quickly was the thing done that the judges refused to listen to the protest of the other drivers, and simply laughed them off the track.As an evidence of his bull dog tenacity, on one occasion a running horse was employed to drive him out, but to so great an extreme did Alvin exert his energies that only one heat was pulled off lest he should injure himself.In spite of this fact, he had one of the kindest dispositions in the world.Aside from a race, a woman could drive him.He was never trained in the true sense of the term, and until he left Canadian soil he practically took care of himself.\u2014Fred.Abraham.MR.FRANCIS NELSON, M.A.Mr.Francis Nelson, M.A., who will be the associate judge, has for ten years conducted the sporting department of the Toronto Globe.He is no stranger at Bel- Air, either as a visitor or an official, and during the race meeting of two years ago he was in the stand as the steward, representing the Bel-Air Jockey Club.Mr.Nelson is associate judge at Fort Erie, where he was last year, and for several years he has acted in the same capacity at Hamilton and Woodbine.His sporting tastes are not confined to the turf.He was captain of the Nautilus Rowing Club, of Hamilton, when that club\u2019s four-oared crew accomplished \u2014for the first time on record\u2014the feat of winning the Canadian and American championships in one season.He has served as secretary of the Can- Regatta, was secrctary of the Canadian Bascball League, president of the Toronto Football League, and a yachtsman for many years.Mr.Nelson was one of the founders of the Toronto Lacrosse League, vice-president of the Tecumsehs, of Toronto, and is one of the magnates of the Canadian Lacrosse Association.This year he introduced the use of the goal net in lacrosse.All the C.L.A.games are played with receiving nets at the goals, and the change has entirely wiped out the old trouble of disputed goals.Parboiled Human Feet Nothing more disgusting or more unbearable, ter day with sweaty, blistered, burning feet.Foot Elm cures all this.25 cents a

world.Highland Park track at Detroit, and ai- terwards leased the Windsor, Fort Erie and\u2019 Bel-Air courses, \u2018 with the object in view of giving high-class race meetings of short duration.After forming the northern circuit, the Highland Park Club announced stake events with liberal purses so as to attract the better class of horses and horsemen to the meetings in the circuit.How well they succeeded is a matter of record.The first meeting given at Highland Park, Detroit, was the best ever given in that city, and the same is true of the Koct Erie meeting now in progress.and it is expected that the coming meeting at Bel-Air will be the banner race meeting : of the circuit, and the best ever given in Canada.| Until two years ago, when the Highland Park Club gave its first meeting at Montreal, the race-going people were used to seeing Very small fields of horses in all the races.Now, with six hundred horses to draw from, the fields will only be limited to the capacity of the track to accommodate them.i teen horses going through the field in a steeplechase is an inspiring one, and will be of frequent occurrence at the coming meeting.\u201cThe Tiorses

the Parmer-Hendrie syndicate has been of a highly satisfactory nature.Their mills at Lachine are perfectly equipped for turning out on the shortest notice any kind of general contracting work, including sashes, doors, blinds and all kinds of house finish.They employ fifty-five hands at the present time, which number is considerably strengthened during the busier seasons.Horsemen who have the erection of stables in contemplation would do well to call on this firm for an estimate.JOCKEYS WHO WILL RIDE AT \u2019 BEL-AIR.The riders who will pilot the horses at Bel-Air number among them some of the best knights of the pig-skin now before the public.One especially, whose picture appears in this issue of The Herald, is Jockey Tommy Burns, a Canadian by birth, who is the peer of any rider of his weight that ever straddled a thoroughbred.Jockey Burns was born in Port Hope, Canada, but first came into prominence at Windsor, where his excellent riding brought him to public notice.Since then he has attained the position of premier Western jockey, and many good judges think that he is the best rider since Archer\u2019s time.Jockey Burns will probably be seen at Bel-Air during the coming meeting.The other jockeys of prominence who will ride are Sherland, Powers, Mason, Shields, another Canadian ; Walker, Jones, Neumeyer, James, Cassidy, H.Lewis, Clay and others of lesser note.The cross-countrv riders who the jumpers are Hamilton, Pierce, Brown, Mattocks, gher, and many others.nr MR.COLIN CAMPBELL, MONTREAL.The picture of Mr.Colin Campbell, of Montreal, 18 a

officer of the old Bel- Air J ockey Club.For many years he has been prominent in the hunting field, and at the race meetings held under the auspices of the above clubs.In 1891 he ran second on Wild Thorn for the Allan Cup, was second again in the same race in 1893 on Scotch Reel, and won it in 1894 on Slickaway.In 1892 he Cup with his crack hunter, Lancer, by King Alfonso.In 93 he finished third

America, and is known as a fearless and upright official, a terror to evil-doers and is one of the best informed men in the country on racing matters.His connection with the turf dates back many years and he is known and liked by horsemen and the racing public everywhere.Besides acting in his official capacity at the Oakland, California, track, Mr.Carter has jealously guarded the interests of the public at Nashville, Memphis, Cincinnati, St.Louis, Detroit, Windsor, Hamilton and Fort Erie, and the racing public of Montreal can be congratulated on having the best racing judge in America to look

London omnibuses interested me very much.They were such magnificent specimens of their kind and were always In such excellent condition.I was at a loss to account for their freshness and vigor, con- gidering the size of the omnibuses they pulled, until I learned that some of the large omnibus companies keep eleven horses for each bus, so as to be able to change horses at frequent intervals.One company had 2,200 busses and 24,000 horses.They were mostlv American horses, of course, but they would probably be vastly different looking animals if they had been kept in this country, as most of them would be in harness about ten hours a day.The most miserable looking lot of horses that I saw used on the streets of any one city were in Rome.A good-looking horse of any variety was a rarity in that city.Most of the Roman carriage horses were driven with three lines.Two of them were buckled into rings that were fastenel to a nose band and the third line was fastened to a curb bit and was only used in an emergency, when the horse was unruly, which I would judge happened but seldom, as they were all such a tired, decripit-looking lot.0000000 +.USA 0e A0 0 0 GAZETTE, 2.071, OWNED BY

ran his two\u2019 miserable looking horses all the way under the whip, and after we stopped he jumped out and fed each horse a little bunch oi green clover, a bundle of which he had fastened under the seat.I afterwards learned that this was a custom common in that country.The hackmen ran their horses back and forth in order to make as many trips as possible and fed the animals a little green clover whenever they stopped, and in spite of that treatment I never saw one of their horses puff or blow at all.This clover that they all use is cut fresh every day on the banks of the Nile and is brought into the market place in the city on the backs of The Royal Military Collège, There are few national institutions of more value and interest to the country than the Royal Military College at Kingston.At the same time its object, and the work it is accomplishing are not sufficiently understood by the general public.The College is a Government institution, designed primarily for the purpose of giving the highest technical instruction in al] branches of military science to cadets and officers of the Canadian Militia.In fact it is intended to take the place in Canada of the English Woolwich and Sandhurst and the American West Point.The commandant and military instructors are all officers on the active list of the Imperial army, lent for the purpose, and in addition there is a complete staff of professors for the civil subjects which form such a large proportion of the College course.Whilst the College is organized on a strictly military basis the cadets receive in

mention.The Corticelli mills, which were established here on a modest scale in 1887, are really a Canadian branch of the great Nonotuck Silk Company and Brainerd & Armstrong Company of the United States, whose goods have a worldwide reputation.In the year mentioned Mr.W.H.Wyman, who had already spent over twenty years in the business and was thoroughly familiar with every detail, came over from Hartford, Conn., as manager, bringing witih him one skilled female operative as instructress.A small A Visit to the \u2014 ire Corticelli Silk Industry PLOT 0000000000

the handling of these fine silks, and is a real oon to the consumer as well as to the storekeeper.Sewing Silk.The Corticelli | the reputation of sewing silk has gained being always the same; B.C., the silk worm is now extensively | cultivated there and in Japan, and in Italy and a few other European coun- | tries.Silk culture in American started in 1622, when James I.sent silk worm eggs, mulberry trees, and printed instructions to Virginia, but the attempt was not successful and the planters showed their taste by returning to the growing of tobacco.Various other attempts were made, but one obstacle was the price of labor, and now nearly nearly all the raw stk used on this continent comes from China and Japan.In order, however, to show how this raw material is produced, the company has preserved in cases the silk worm in its various stages.The wonderful insect that makes the silk is the larva of a small moth called Sericaria mori, This moth is classed with the Lepidoptera, nr scaly winged insects, family Bomby- cidae, or spinners.This species of caterpillar is commonly called the mulberr gilk worm.It has become domesticated, since, during the long centuries in which it has been cultivated, it has acquired many useful peculiarities.Man has sturiv- en to increase its silk-producing power,and in ts he has succeeded, for, by comparing the present silk worm with its wild relations, the domestic cocoon is found to be much larger, even in proportion to the size of the worm that makes it or the moth that issues from it.It has other THE CORTICELLI SILK MILLS, ST.JOHNS, P.Q.building was erected and twelve girls were hired, who were taught the mysteries of silk manufacture.Their goods met with such acceptance that it was found necessary to hire more operatives and initiate them also into the secrets of the business.Then the mill had to be enlarged from time to time, until to-day the company has invested a capital of $125,000.In the mill here are employed about 110 hands on the average, and their weekly wages amount to over $500.In addition the company employs sixteen office men and fourteen travelling salesmen, who push the goods from the Atlantic to the l\u2019a- cific.Besides this, the company bought out a braid mill at Coaticook, where 50 hands are now employed making the well- known Corticelli skirt protector, Lama braid and mohair braids.The mill here, situated on the main street, forms two sides of a square, running back to the Richelieu River in the rear.It is of brick, four storeys high, with 145 feet frontage and on one side a depth of 130 feet.The power used is steam.In cons quence of the increase of business it has been found necessary to open branch offices in Toronto, Montreal, Winnipeg, and Quebec.; Benefit of Experience.The president of the company 1s Mr.Ira Dimock, of Hartford, Conn.who is also president of the Brainerd & Armstrong Co.and of the Nonotuck Silk Company.In all there are virtually under the same management seventeen mills of the Corticelli Silk Company and four more of the Brainerd & Armstrong Co.The mills in the United States have been run ning for many years, the company at Florence, Mass., having started the manu facture of Corticelli silk as far back as 1838.Consequently the mills here began with the experience acquired by years of trial across the border, and this accounts in a large measure for the extraordinary success of the company.It now supplies about nine-tenths of the Canadian trade in wash silks, and in addition does its share of the spool silk business.The company dyes some 380 shades of wash silks, and is continually experimenting with new shades in order to keep up with the times.These Brainerd & Armstrong wash silks have a world-wide reputation, and have been endorsed and are used ex, full length and full strength, and full size.| The Corticelli button hole twist is made from stock selected for its strength and smoothness.Much attention is given to dyes which are durable, and which match the colors of Corticelli sewing silk in all the seasonable dress goods found in the market.As a corollary of the sik peculiarities, among these being its peaceful disposition and its seeming want of desire to escape if supplied with food.The moth\u2019s loss of the power of flight and the white color of the species are also re- \u2018sults of domestication.It is fed on the small and tender leaves of che white mul- { berry for about a month, when, having business proper, and to promote the sale attained full growth, the worm is ready of its own goods, the company deals in to spin its cocoon.It loses its appetite.OFFICE AND WAREROOMS OF THE CORTICELLI SILK COMPANY (LIMITED) 24 WELLINGTON STREET WEST, TORONTO silk worms are placed, prevent the silk from becoming soiled.Dropping them into these tubes is familiarly called \u201cbagging\u201d the worms.In foreign countries twigs 'r bundles of loose straw take the place of \u201cheey tubes.The worm works incessantly, forcing ve silk out by the contraction of its hbodv.The thin, gauze-like network which soon surrounds 1t gradually thickens, until n twenty-four hours after beginning to spin the worm is completely hidden from view.However, the cocoon is not completed for about three days.Instinct teaches the worm to cease spinning with its head up, so that the moth in emerging can crawl out of the paper tubes.The silk spun by the worm in first get- INTERIOR CORTICELLI SILK WAREROOM, TORONTO the finest quality of embroidery linen stamped with the latest designs and sold with directions compiled

silk is elaborated in a semi- fluid condition in two long convoluted vessels or glands between the prolegs and the head, one upon each side of the ali- ting its bearings is loose and is known as \u201cfloss.\u201d The cocoon is tough, strong and compact, composed of a firm, continuous thread, which is, however, not wound in concentric circles, but irregularly in short figure-eight loops, first in one place and then in another.The motion of the worm\u2019s head when starting the cocoon 1s light yellow in color, and immediately at- ter molting is soft to the touch.The ten prolegs of the worm have disappeared, the four wings of the future moth are folded over the breast, together with the six legs and two feelers, or antennae.soon turns brown and the skin hardens into a tough shell.Nature provides the cocoon to protect the worm from the ele- chrysalis, and thence into the moth.With no jaws, and confined within the narrow space for the cocoon, the moth has some difficulty in escaping.After two or three weeks the shell of the chiy- «alis bursts and the moth ejects against the end of the cocoon a strongly alkaline liquid which moistens and dissolves the hard, gummy lining.Pushing aside some of the silken threads and breaking others, with crimped and damp wings the moth emerges; and the exit once effected, the wings soon expand and dry.Escape of the Moth.The escape of the moth, however, breaks so many threads that tha cocoons are ruined for reeling, and consequently, when ten days old, all those not intended for seed are put in a steam heater to stifiz the chrysalis, and the silk may then be reeled at any future time.One moth lays from three to four hundred eggs, deposit- iug them over an even surface, and in the large cocoon varieties there are fully thirty thousand eggs in a single ounce avoirdupois.Reeling the silk from the cocoons 13 not often done in the United States, and the Corticelli method differs slightly from that practised in foreign countries.Most ot the raw material which is imported comes already reeled ready for the manufacturer.Silk growers in the United States, by working early and late every day during the season, which lasts from six to eight weeks, could scarcely average twenty-five cents a day for their labor, and, therefore, it is grown only in countries where labor is very cheap.Imported raw silk comes in skeins ot from one to several ounces, packed into | di | ments while it is being transformed into a i bundles called \u2018bouks,\u201d weighing from five to ten pounds.1n China and Japan | the books are usually sold in bales varying | from one hundred to one hundred aud | sixty pounds.It takes from twenty-two hundred and fifty to three thousand cocoons to make a pound of reeled silk, and hence it is so valuable.Process of Manufacture.The raw silk which is the raw material of the mills here in St.John\u2019s, is first assorted according to the size of the fiber and is then soaked in warm water

upon for fastness of color combined with the delicate shades needed for artistic work, They are made in nearly four hundred varying shades, the difference between some shades being so glight that only the trained eye can perceive it; still this is essential for the finest work, when the blending of the shades is dome so perfectly that you go from the lightest to the darkest shade with no perceptible break in the shading.The manufacture of the Brainerd & Armstrong wash silks is a science of itself, and each embroidery work.Besides a full line of Corticelli sewing, knitting, crochet, embroidery, etching, rope, filo, floss and Jace wash silks, the company makes hos- jery, mittens and underwear from pure silk, and has recently met a growing de: mand for fine silk bindings and worsted dress braids.The Silk Worm.In view of the general interest in the subject it will not be out of place to say a few words about the silk worm and its culture before describing the manufacture

an ingenious machine, smoothing and consolidating the constituent fibres; it is then reeled into hanks ready for dyeing.This process is a very important one, and upon its success depends the permanency of the various colors.The Cor- ticelli Company has an enviable reputation for the superior quality and finish of its dye work, the result of years of scientific investigation and experimenting.In boiling out the \u201cgum\u201d previous to dyeing, the silk shrinks from 20 to 25 per cent.in weight.After dyeing it is again wound on bobbins to be polished and finished, and then spooled or reeled into small skeins, according to the kind of silk.The spooling machines are partly automatic, and the operator winds the eilk upon the spools with surprising accuracy, measuring off correctly the desired length.Many of the machines used by this company are of their own invention, patented sells it at this nominal sum merely as an advertisement for its business proper.The book is profusely illustrated with colored plates of desigus for flowers, taken not from natural flowers, but from actual needlework, so that the precise effect is shown in every detail.It gives also hints on the selection of material, and for washing embroidered linen, a complete classification of embroidery stitches, with instructions and illustrations.About 50 pages are devoted to centrepieces and doilies, copiously illustrated with colored plates and ordinary designs.There are also added a number of hints for fancy novelties.The increasing popularity of the wheel and the game of golf has revived the interest in knitting, especially since desirable and exclusive patterns in bicycle and golf stockings are not easily obtained in the ready-made goods.The Cor- ticelli Home Needle Work, therefore, gives designs knit from wool and silk.The silk is made especially for this Bok and in combination with wool fhe effect is very handsome.The best results From Photograph, Copyrighted, 1895,

of its goods, the Corticelli Silk Company has published since 1887 a series of books embracing every variety of useful and decorative needlework.The Corticelli Home Needle Work, 1897-98 will be mailed to any address in Canada on receipt of 13 cents.It is safe to say that the work cannot be produced for less than ten times that amount, but the company Needlework can only be secured by the use of the exact material called for in \u2018whe instructions.Cor- ticelli bicycle and golf siik is made of spec- tally selected stock, dyed in fast colors and will be found easy to knit.German knitting worsted, golf and cycle mixtures, is just the right size to use in connection with the silk.The colors of silk to go with the ditferent colors of yarns harmonize perfectly.Ordinary yarn, no matter of what kind or color, will not do to work these patterns.The book is edited by Mrs.Amalia Smith, formerly with the New York Society of Decorative Art, and other needlework authorities connected with art societies and journals.A Wash Silk Color Card.Often the most difficult task for many women is choosing the proper shades of silk to embroider a certain stamped linen.Usually the dealer from whom they purchase their Corticelli Silk will advise them in regard to this, but when one lives in one of the smaller towns no store will be tound which carries a good stock of embroidery materials from which to make a selection.In this case the best thing to do is to send 20c in stamps to the Uor- ticelli Silk Co., Box 39, St.John\u2019s, Que.for a Brainerd & Armstrong Wash Silk Color Card, showing over

issue dealing with such a subject would not be complete without reference to the Faculty of Comparative Medicine, late the Montreal Veterinary College, and its well-known founder, Dr.D.McEachran, who is acknowledged to-day one of the best authorities in his work in either America or Europe.No man on the continent has had a wider range of work and whose knowledge is more appreciated by the Government, under which he holds the office of Chief Inspector of Stock.Dr.McEach- DR.D.McEACHRAN.ran recently returned from an extended official tour through England, Scotland, France, (Germany, Holland, ete, and his report, now in the hands of the printer, is the most complete work of its kind that any Canadian Government has yet issued.A cut of the college and its founder appears in this issue.Duncan D.McKachran, born in Camp- bletown, Argyleshire, Scotland, on Oct.27, 1841, was the son of the late David MeFachran, for several years senior bailie of the above town.The family ranks among the oldest in Kintyre; the Tome Cross of Campbletown bearing the name of Ed.McEachran, while the tombstones of the family date back to the fourteenth century.The subject of the present sketch was educated in the Free Church Grammar School of his native place and at the age of seventeen began his professional studies under the distinguished Dick.He graduated as a veterinary surgeon in 1861, became a member of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons the same year, and was elected one of the original Fellows of that body on its elevation to the rank of a university in 1875.In 1872 Mr.McEachran came to Canada and practiced his profession succesful- lv for about three years in Woodstock, Ontario.In 1861 Mr.Mclachran settled in Montreal.Almost immediately on Ins arrival in Montreal, owing to the reputation he had made for himself, powerful friends rallied about him; steps were taken to lay the foundations of veterinary teaching, and in the same vear the Montreal Veterinary College was estabished under the auspices of the late Major Campbell, President of the Board of Agriculture, and of Sir William Dawson, Principal of McGill University.In 1875 the present buildings were erected in a central\u2019 location on Union avenue, at the expense of the founder and principal, the Government guaranteeing\u2019 MR.CYRILLE LAURIN.a grant of $1,800 for ten years, with the privilege of sending thirteen French and seven English students for free education in the College.Professor McEachran was for ten years Veterinary Surgeon to the Montreal Field Battery of Artillery.He has been intimately connected with cattle ranching, Senator Cochrane and himself being the pioneers of that enterprise on a large scale in Canada.In 1881 Principal McEachran visited Alberta, going via the Missouri River, driving across the plains from Fort Benton, in Montana, to Morleyville, and publishing a series of letters describing the trip, on his return.He and Senator Cochrane established the ranch bearing the latter\u2019s name, and Mr.McEachran was Vice-President of the same till 1883, when he became general manager of the Walrond Cattle Ranch Company, of which Sir John Walrond 1s President.* Principal McEachran\u2019s efforts to prevent the introduction of foot and mouth fectious diseases from European countries, in which they have proved so destructive, deserve special mention.In 1875 he urgently pressed upon the Government of the Dominion of Canada the necessity of the establishment of a quarantine system with the object as above stated.In April, 1876, he was appointed .| Chief Inspector, and organized the first (Canadian cattle quarantine at Point Levis.In January, 1879, Professor McEachran was sent by the Canadian Government to the United States to investigate the pleuro-pneumonia then prevalent, and visited New York, Long Island, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia and the district of Columbia.The report upon this visit led to important measures being taken by the Governments of Great Rritain and Canada to prevent diseased animals being imported into these countries, which have since that time been largely free from the disease.C'anada\u2018s immunity is directly and almost solely traceable to the action the Government Las taken owing to Principal McEach- ran\u2019s representations.The grounds on which he based the action he recommenda- ed to the Canadian authorities, can be fully learned from an address delivered -:t the thirteenth anniversary meeting of the American Veterinary Association, and published in the first number of the American Veterinar- Review.The concluding paragraph is quoted: \u201cIn conclusion, gentlemen, I would suggest to this Association, that you should approach the Government and point out the necessity for preventative measures heing adopted and urge upon them the importance of recognizing this profession, ,and ceasing to appoint uneducated men to positions of responsibility, while you have young men educated in science, both able and willing to fill the positions.Let $ CAPTAIN ALLAN A.PHILLIPS.\u2014 | our motto ever continue to be \u201cBis Unita Fortior,\u201d and instead of our noble sa- ence, for what science next to human medicine can be more noble than that those poor dumb animals which God has goven to us to care for, being looked upon as scarcely respectable.We must and will sand side by side with all the other liberal professions, and I certainly do think that if we can bring about the objects of this paper we will do much to deserve the lasting thanks of this great people.\u201d During the entire period of his residence in Montreal Professor McEachran has interested himself in the improvement of the city\u2019s sanitary condition.The most recent pathological investigations have demonstrated by new methods, the communicability of infectious and other disease by milk.This was recognized many years ago by Mr.McEachran, who urged not only the inspection of all milk exposed for sale, but also the regular inspection by experts of all dairy establishments.: A series of articles published in the Am- eriacan Veterinary Review of ten years ago, gives ample evidence of the high position he has always claimed for his profession, and his ardent desire that veterinary medical education should be placed upon a higher plane than it then occupied.From time to time during the years of his residence in Montreal, Principal McEachran has been in consultation with the practitioners of human medicine with regard to the prevention of the propagation of infectious diseases, the general sanitary condition of the city, ete.The most lasting memorial of Principal McEachran\u2019s career will probably prove to be the school of veterinary medicine.Principal McEachran began by making the school an embodiment of the principles he has never ceased to advocate from that date to the present time.During the greater part of this period a matricu!a- tion examination has been exacted, the requirements for which have been gradually but steadily raised.It is not posi- ble for an illiterate man to enter as a student of the Faculty of Comparative Medicine.The course extends over a eriodd of three years from matriculation, Turing which an attempt is made to give the student a thorough grounding in al! the branches of veterinary education.Fr = hi fi ii i | | ji | i .cc a] a ÿ i me ly at iE 1e AT RTE El bi I | Le ; HR i ay ju wiki a A = | | i i TA CN Ë RIT Ii I I 1 f spires a | re CET LY APY IY EY IIR 2 FOUN TAT Zeman JA i af

the McGill professors.This includes courses in Botany, Histology, Physiology, Pathology, Materia Medica and Therapeutics (there are also special lectures on the veterinary aspects of this branch), and General Pathology.In these various branches the veterinarv students are required to attend the same number of lectures and undergo the same examination as the students of human medicine of McGill University.There are in addition practical examinations to be passed in nearly all of the above subjects and in connection with each of them the opportunity is afforded of doing laboratory work, while in chemistry and physiology this is compulsory.In each ot these subjects there are regular demonstrations which all students are required to attend.Provision is made at the Veterinary College for abundant practice in compounding and administering medicines.The lectures and demonstrations in Pathology in McGill University are supplemented at the Veterinary School by special courses on Entozoa and Cattle Pathology.Turning to professional education, it is at present arranged thus : Principal Me- Eachran lectures on Veterinary Medicine and Surgery; Professor Baker on Veterinary Anatomy; Professor C.MeEachran on Veterinary Obstetrics and Cattle Patn- ology.There are other minor courses.The dissecting room, well supplied with sub- Jects, is superintended by Professor Baker, who has assistants.\u2019 The college has a large museum well furnished with models, casts, skeletons, pathological specimens, ete., On the College premises there is an infirmary, in which sick animals are received throughout the entire year; and as all the principal stables of the city are under the supervision of the principal and his colleagues, abundant material for clinical and pathological purposes is not wanting.To this must be added the resources of the quarantine station, cattle yards, abattoirs, etc All the students have the oportunity of joining in clinical practice.Senior students are, in turn: given charge wf cases in the infirmary, under the direction of the professors, and visit the stables of the citv accompanied by their teachers to learn the actual practice of their pro- fesion.The junior students are appointed assistants to the senior men, and aid in dressing and otherwise.Students are required to attend two courses in cattle pathology, three in anatomy, three in veterinary medicine and surgery, and two in obstetrics, while they have the option of taking three courses on any subject of the curriculum One course of six months is required in botany, and one of six months in histology; two courses of six months each in chemistry and physiology, with practical laboratory work, as before indicated.There are two societies in connection with the college: The Veterinary Medical Association, which every student is expected to join, meeting fortnightly, for the reading and discusion of papers, hearing the reports of cases, examination of speri- mens, ete., and the Society for the Study of Comparative Psychology, which meets reading and discussion of papers, hearing papers on animal intelligence.The college has a library of 140 volumes and the Veterinary Medical Association one of 500 volumes.Most of the journals interesting to the student of com- rarative miedicine are taken regularly, This literature is all freely accessible to the students of the institution.C090 00000400000 000000000 : Early Morning at Bel-Air Track C4040 00 0000000000000 000 lcarly morning at Bel-Air in the first days of the racing week, when trainers, jockeys, stablemen and stable boys are working like Trojans getting the horses that may make and break fortunes into trim, is one of the most picturesque of Montreal scenes, Nearly all the rest of Montreal is sleeping when the Bel-Air day begins The first streaks of dawn have hardly appeared in the sky when there is a stirring in the long, low buildings that fringe this well- known track.Out from under the sheds of these racing stables the bulky forms of the negro stablemen creep, and here and there is the figure of a lithe boy whose task it will be the next moment to straddle a horse and give him his first warming up of the day.lt is not yet five o\u2019clock, and yet the grounds are full of shadowy silhouettes of horses and boys.From out of each stable comes the string of splendid animals that can accomplish such wonders on the track.Some of these strings are thirty horses leng, others but a bare half dozen.In the case of a stable of the former size, however, but ten or a dozen would be taken out at a time, for each stable buy, as a rule, has two horses to exercise, just as each stableman has three to care for.The slender, satiny limbs of each racer show to their best advantage in the gray morning light.The horse himself is in fine fettle with this break of day.He arches his neck, and would stir impatiently were it not for the firm hand of the little stable boy at his mouth.These boys know their business; they are the most remarkable enthusiasts in the world.Chey are getting but twelve dollars or so a month; but what of that?Unlimited possibilities are ahead of them.If a boy Bhows he can handle a horse'to the Queen\u2019s taste, he gets straightaway in the good books of the trainer, for Al stable boys are hard to find; and he will be a jockey some day, perhaps even a famous jockey, with ten thousand a year salary and percentage of the gains of every race he wins.So it is with the most careful handling that each stable boy steps his steed out in the open and gets him on the track.The gray dawn is blending into the crispness of a perfect day.Gingerly the boy guides his horse around the track on a walk.One mile is covered, two! The pace 1s increased to a gentle canter.The horse is given more and more rein.He stretches his supple, powerful limbs, and, now warmed to the occasion, wants to be off and away around the course on a mad gallop.: But, the stable boy\u2019s tight rein says uo, and the racer has long before this learned obedience.The stable men are now out of the stables, lined along the track\u2019s fence, with blankets, huge sponges and buckets of water.The trainer with his assistant, is now on hand, watching every movement of the beasts under his care.He signals, now here, now there.He brings one horse to a halt, and, having him refreshed, starts him again.He changes mounts after study of each.He orders certain racers to be blanketed and led back to their stalls, and has others brought out.It is on the trainer that the whole responsibility rests.The success of a stable for a vear is largely due to his ekill Inferior horses can be pushed to the front by proper handling; the best horses will fail without just the right care.Each one of these magnificent brutes is a study in itself, each must be handled differently.The trainer is a grand mogul.Frequently he is practically a part owner\u2014 to the extent at least of his vear\u2019s in- takings depending largely upon his success.Generally he has a heavy guarantee\u2014$7,000 to $10,000, in a stable of any size\u2014and with success he may make as high as $50,000 in a single season.His whole time is given to those horses.Very often he lives in the racing stable.When he does not, he is on hand at day- of the work break each morning.He can discharge men and boys at his will, and his only \u2018rival is the stable\u2019s crack jockey\u2014a man like Taral, for example\u2014who nearly every time can ride the horses he has trained to victory.The famous jockeys later appear and take a turn about the course with the borses they are to ride in the great races.Unpicturesque are these jockeys in the early morning hours.Soiled riding trousers and some old sweaters constitute their costumes.But they have a marvellous interest, just the same, in the skill they display, even in these antiquated togs.And so the morning goes until the sun is high in the heavens.By eleven of the clock practically every horse has been exercised.Owners and visitors by the score come to look at the work of the racers, to comment and figure At times the track is filled with galloping steeds.At times horses are put to their ' prettiest in bursts of speed of a mile or more.MR.G.WINDSOR LINTON.Founder of the Linton Orthophonic In stitute for the

ot horses and cattle in Canada is Mr.J.Henry Smith, of the Board of Trade, and (Canadian representative of the firm of Stephens, Smith & Co., of London, England.Since this latter firm, an advertisement of whom appears in another column, established their Montreal agency, it has been highly satisfactory.The first sale was held on February 9th last, since which time close to 2,000 horses have been consigned and successfully sold.the firm expressing their satisfaction with the results.The company expect in the near future opening a house in Liverpool, whither the Montreal representatives wiil make similar consignments.They deal in all classes of saddlers, drivers, carriagers, cobs, bussers and vanners.They have large stables located on St.Paul street, known to the trade as the Caledonian, which on occasions does not commence to accommodate the horses they hold ready for shipment.Mr.Smith is also the Cau- adian representative of Messrs.John Swan & Sons, Ltd., of Glasgow, the great cattle dealers.The Smiths are amongst the very largest stock exporters in Canada, and have brought a shrewdness and ability to bear in their business that has made their operations highly successful.Few men are better spoken of by the trader or producer as men of integrity and honesty, and who can be depended on to do exactly as they agree to.Mr.T.Swan Smith, of the firm of
