view of the situation.There must have been three or four hundred of them on board from time to time.They were warmly demonstrative towards us, and at first were inclined to ask us to return their visits.I believe some of the Maine\u2019s officers took advantage of their invitations; but I always explained that my position in Havana was a delicate one, that I desired to know socially both the Spaniards and the Cubans, but that I should not feel free to accept hospitalities until the Spanish people first showed a willingness to accept the hospitalities of the ship.I often made enquiries in a rather jocular way as to the politics of the ladies who visited the ship.The ladies pointed out to me visit ors of different shades of opinion, but 1 CHE Positively cured by these Little Pills, They

my, doubts whether any of them were really in sympathy with the Spaniards.I let it be known cvervwione PEUt it would please me greatly to entertain the Spanish people on board, and made considerable effort to bring about the desired result, but without success.It was evident that the Spaniards would not visit us socially; they would do their official duty, but would not go beyond it.I finally decided to make a very special effort.I knew two charming young Spanish ladies of American descent on their mother\u2019s side.Both were engaged to be married to Spanish army officers, Their father had been a Spanish officer.All their associations had been in Spamish military circles.\u2018They assured me that i was a mistake to suppose that the Spaniards would not visit us in a friendly way.To demonstrate their view, they ot- fered to bring aboard the Maine, on a cur- bain day, a party of Spanish officers.The ladies came at the appointed time, their mother being one of the party; but wich them there was only one Spanish officer and he was in what we might call a civil branch of the army.Each lady gave a somewhat different excuse for the absence of the officers, which only served to make it.dear that the officers would not come at all, and that there was a general ul.derstanding that the ehip should not be de fo by Spanish officers, except ofti- Captain Sigsbee\u2019s Belief as

harbor could not be dragged without giving offense; it could not be be patrolled by our own picket-boats at night, nor could the search-lights be kept going; but every internal precaution was axercised that the situation suggested.There were sentries on the forecastle and poop, quartermaster and sig- nal-boy on the bridge, and a second sig- nal-boy on the poop, all of whom were charged with the necessity for a careful lookout.The corporal of the guard was specially instructed as to the port gangway, and the officer of the deck and the quartermaster as to the starboard gang:

and in the spare captain\u2019s pantry Ainside4 the after-superstructure.An additional supply of shells was kept at hand for the six-inch guns.pared more completely to work the hydraulic mechanism of

report defects, The officer of the deck was charged by me to make detailed reports, even in minor matters, acting on the suspicion that we might be in an unfriendly harbor.T personally mstructed the master-at-arms and the orderly sergeant to keep a careful eye on every visitor that came on board, and to charge their own subordinates to the same purpose.| instructed them to follow visitors about at a proper distance whenever the ship was visited below; they were carefully to watch for any packages that might be laid down or left by visitors, on the supposition that dynamite or other high explosives might be used.They were also required to inspect the routes over which visitors had passed.dhe oflicer in charge of the marine guard was required to make at least two visits during the night to the various posts of the vessel.The purport of my own orders and instructions was that we should consider the Maine in a position demanding extreme vigilance, and requiring a welleustained routine both by day and by night.RAILWAY TIME TABLE, \u2014\u2014\u2014 CANADIAN PACIFIC RAILWAY.Trains Leave Windsor Station ast7] follows: (Note * signifies runs dally.trains run daily except

ht\u2019s meeting, got back to solid ground : the method of electing the Boæd of Centrol.When the draft from the revisers WAS received it was proposed to discuss the whole affair over again, so that the committee might be as nearly as possible at an agreement before the plan was submitted to Council.Ald.Beausoleil, in what was, for him, a speech of comsider- able length, expressed dissatisfaction with the scheme as it had gone through at last \u2018meeting, and suggested that the controllers should be eletted by the people in the three divisions, instead of by the aldermen.Ald.Martineau took the same view.Ald.Laporte formally reopened the question of how the board should be selected by.moving that it consist of the Mayor and six aldermen to be elected by a majority of the Council, and to sit for two years.Ald.Ames, while evidently prepared to drop his scheme for dividing the aldermen into three groups, expressed his belief that it was the best plan of obtaining a saftisfac- tory board.The voting was peculiar.First, it was on an amendment by Ald.Martineau to divide the aldermen into eight groups, the mover voting alone; next, on a motion by Ald, Mertineau to e have the controllers elected by the people, cn which he and Ald, Beausoleil were out-voted; and finally, two votes on Ald.Laporte\u2019s motion, Ald.Ames and Mar- tineau voting againet it the first time as a matter of record, and everyone but Ald.Beausoleil voting for it the second time.\u201cAld.MoBride, Laporte, Ames and Mar.titeau were thus agreed that election by a majority af the whole Council was the best practicable plan, and se it will go on to Council.It is hardly necessary to ay that this decision meets with the hearty approval of The Herald, for since the committee, « week ago, decided to accept the schenre fur a division of the aldermen into groups we have endeavored to make it clear that \u2018he plan would probably not serve the lurpose for which it was designed, and \u2018at, even though it did secure the best \u2018 sssible English representation, the ills \u2018 \u2019oduced in other ways wuuld more than ~unterbalance what might be gained.Ald.\u201ces last night referred to Brooklyn as :& city in which the system is in use, «+ Where, he says, it has proved quite vessiul.Granting this to be the fact, ls still not demoustrable that the plan (ad work in Montreal with like effect.1 Brooklyn the population is practically rnogeneous, and although there are ra- val and rehgious minorities, they are not Ncentrated in certain localities as is the tise in Montreal.In Brooklyn the group L'an would serve the purpose of securing vepresentation\u2014not necessarily the best\u2014 for sections of population approximately equal in point of numbers, territorial extent and taxable valuation.What Ald, Ames set out to do was to conserve the forces of a minority, and his plan failed first because it discriminated against a large section of that minority whose hcanes are in St.Lawrence Ward, and because, having declared for the rights of minorities, it could make no provision for the mghts of the French and Irish nii- norities that would be found in the wes?ern division itself.We believe Ald.Ames will come to see, if he has not already, that the only sure way to get the best representation for the minority is to secure the election of desirable aldermen, and then to combine the best elements of the Council so as to secure the election of as many controllers of proved capacity and integrity as ehall be possible.There need be no fear, under such circumstances, that the claims of the minority will be over looked.7 * * Ald.Martineauw\u2019s aitemsibive plans do not, to our mind, embody any principle which would in pracilce make their operation any more effective for good than that proposed by Ald.Ames.The division of the aldermen into eiglit groups, instead of six, m.ght, indeed, ensure representation to all sorts of minorities, racial, religious and even political, but the prime consider alton where the groups were so smal would be the needs of the wards and not the needs of the whole city.\u2018This is precisely what, in our judgment, the Board of Control is d.signad to avaid.Constitute a board of e.ght aldermen who owe their election {3 Uwo or three wards, and their every effort will be directed to securing the most pousible for the wards in question, ant even for such individuals as may contro bibcks of votes.The only ao, e of again obtainig à seat on the board would depend upon the ability of th» representative to satisfy his colleagues and their wards.¥lect the same alderman by he vote of the whole Council, and be lus the whole Council to appeal to next tame; the probability of his considering \u2018in incerests of the wiole city are at once ous derably enlarged, for it is not onlv that he may appeal to all on his record, usiead of to the fow, but he must also answer to all instead of to the few.Surely Lie old committee system has given us cnough of ward-grabbing and of the abuse of patronage.The plan of election by the people at large also presents difficulties which, if not insuperable, are at least serious.Let anyone suppose himself engaged in a contest dor such an honor in any & the uivisions suggested by Ald.Ames, und\u2019 the danger of complications is at once manifested in the most practical manner.What, for example, would be the cimcumstinces attending euch an election in the] division , consisting of St.Ann\u2019s, St.Anboine, St.Gabriel and West Wards ?Ib woyld mean r the need of permanent and formidable organization, the use of much money and a small army of office-seeking election-work- ers to placate.Every one knows that the city would eventually be made to provide the money and to provide places for the workers.And a second and greater danger, would lie in the fact that such organizations are not easily recruited, and\u2019 that there would be the most direct inducements to the great polite cal parties to throw their machinery inte the wk.Nobody wants tixat.These 13 nothing in civie admusstration {6r Liberal and Conservative to disagree about, excep: the offices, and whids, tm New York, po.itical parties get into such a dimagree- ment, it is \u2018\u2018all day\u201d with the tax-wate.* » * We regard the decision arrived at last night as the best that could have been cume to, and one whach thêre 18 reason to believe will commend the plan to the ac- ceptanoe of a majority of the Council.Incidentally, it is perhaps no harm to remark that, aithough the members of the Charter Committee are all exceadingly able men, it is doubtful if under Ald.Ames\u2019 plan more than one af hem would have been elacted.Yet if ail committees were as useful as this one, there would be little need for the change that is now so urgently demanded.PROHIBITIONISTS EXPECTATIONS.A correspondent writes us an fhteresting and moderately-toned letter referring to an article in The Herald in which some observations were made upon the proposed visit to Ottawa of a prohibitionist delegation.Between our correspondent and ourselves there is no divergence regarding the object which the temperance movement has in view, nor tegatding the inestimable value of the work which has been, and is being, dome by temperance workers and organisations.That they are worthy of the heartiest support and sympathy of every well-wisher of society goes without saying.But the fact that their object is one of the best that the mind can conceive is not a sufficient reason, it will be admitted, for the prohibitionists being allowed, unopposed, to pursue it in the worst way.And yet we think we can detect in our correspondent\u2019s letter, little open to objection though it is, some of that impatience with criticism which, on the part of less clear-sighted and balanced prohibitionists, amounts te a belief that because of their purposes they should enjoy immunity from criticism as to their processes.On the point whether the prohibitionists asked for the plebiscite, we will compromise with our correspondent.The prohibitionists through their main organization, the Deminion Alliance, did not formally ask for it, But the temperance people at large did; and if their desire was not formuated into a resolution by the alliance, it was on account of tactical reasons.But the approval of the prohibition forces was evident in the last election, and during the stumping tours of the party leaders preceding it.Wherever the candidates or stumpers were interrogated it was accepted as a sufficient answer if the reply was made that the Tiberal party had promised to take a vote, and that they would abide by the mandate of the people.Strictly speaking, the prohibitionists did not formally ask for it, yet nothing is more certain than that the holding of the plebiscite was in accordance with, and was welcomed by, temperance sentiment in every other part of the Dominion except possibly Quebec, \u2018 It is true that when we said the prohibitionists expected Quebec would furnish a surprise, and that the barrier which has been interposed to a Dominion pro- hititery law by the antagonism generally supposed to exist in \u201chis province, would be removd by a plebiscite, we had in mind the expectations entertajned in the other provinces, rather than in this, principally in Ontario, from whence how comes the disposition which is manifested to resent and disclaim the expression of Quebec opinion.Indeed, our correspondent himself appears to have shared the expectation of «a \u201csurprise.\u201d That the prohibitionists are mot weighted down with digappointment we can well believe, and are heartiry rejoiced at the fact.It would be, as we have more than once stated, an incaleulable calamity if there should be any slackening of the ef- ferts of any section of society\u2019s moral raform forces.Whether the vote was small or large will be decided differently, aacord- ing to the points of view from which it is regarded.It may be à large vote, and yet not nearly large enough to warrant the passing of a law.But, after all, large or small, sufficient or insufficient, it will have the effect which our correspondent desires, if it has, indeed, given prohibition the support of a majority of forty constituencies in the House of Commons.But, on the other hand, if prohibitionists have this majority, according to the vote of the 29th of September, and yet cannoc pas their law, is there not dn that fact an object lesson, if one i» needed, to show how different is prohibition from otdinary political issues.A HAFPY ISSUE, There is every reason to be pleased that the Charter Committee on second thought decided against dividing the city on race lines.\u2018The

PED handed administrators to be dealt with, racial divisions are the last thing that ought to be thought of.\u201cThese are always first in the minds of thosæ who ley plans tc rob the taxpayer, and the whole inside history of corruption at the City Hall fairly throbs out appeals to this or that national sentiment.It would ba easy to name men ready to oppose anything originating in the English section, but whose palms are always itching for spoils, and who, rumor has it, will tell people to charge to the city sums that go into their own pockets.And it would be easy to name one alderman who within the past year waved the British flag hard enough to safeguard the Water Committee against the inflwence of a reformving chair man.Nor it i3 even necessary to name an alderman of yet another nationality who is content, seemingly, to let raseality run riot in the departments so that he may Socure what he believes to be jus tice for his comstituents.The day Sir Wilfrid Laurier became Premier of the Dominion a long stride was taken toward the establishment of better relations and a more trusbful understanding between English-speaking and French- speaking Canadians.It were a pity did Montreal adopt any arrangement which might Le regarded as retrogremsive in this teepect, In justice to Ald.Ames, whose plan we have felt cailed upon to criticize in this as in other particulars, it ought te be said that he last night disavowed in the Tuost emphatic.manner, and with a candor that does him credit, any pretence that righteousness in civic politics is confined to one side of Bleury street, or that corruption and incapacity are to be found only on the other side.But the plan itself and the reason he gave for its adoption when he first proposed it were certainly such as might lead anyone to suppose that the line of cleavage is absolute, and that English and French distrust eaeh other thoroughly, But this line we are glad to say is growing less and less definite, and what little there may be left can quickly be wiped out if people will only get it nto their heads that all are citizens of Montreal, and that it is the duty and the interest of French and English alike to get rid of incapacity ahd to piinish stealing in every form: \u201cThou shalt not steal\u201d thay be made a cothmon platform on which both can unite without mental reservation of any

indeed, she was a little later when accompanied by Miss F.Abbott and Prot.Goulet, she rendered a pretty encore.Massenet\u2019s suite, \u201cLes Erinnyes,\u201d followed, and again the orchestre did well, the celicate shading of the piece being exceedingly well done.The programme concluded with the Berlioz Marche Dou- grorse, \u2018Damnation de Faust,\u201d which was go successfully rendered last season.In a way this afforded opportunities for a comparison, and it can be safely said that it was given even better yesterday than previousiy.The programme :\u2014 1\u2014Weber.\u201cJubel\u201d.(Overture) 2\u2014Haydn.\u2018\u2019The Queen\u201d.(Symphony) (a) Adagio\u2014Vivace (b) Allegretto (ec) Final 8\u2014 Wagner.\u201cBlisabeth\u2019s Prayer\u201d .(Tanhauser) Miss M.Hollinshead and Orchestra.#\u2014Massenet.\u201cLes Erinnyes\u201d.(Suite) (a) Prelude (b) Scene Religieuse CL (c) Danse Grecque (d) Final i 5\u2014Berlioz\u2014Marche hongroise \u2018Damnation de Faust.\u201d Miss F.Abbott, pianist.M.A.Dorey, organist.The next concert wii be held on the Friday after next, November 11th.The musicale in Karn Hall last Sat- irday was pleasing and well attended.A splendid programme was arranged by Prof.Goulet and was thoroughly enjoyed.At the Church of the Messiah to-mor.row evening the choir will sing Woodward's Anthem, \u201cThe Splendors of Thy Glory,\u201d and Roberts\u2019 \u201cIn the Fear of the Lord.\u201d Madame Melba is again in London, and will probably give a concert before leaving for America in the mi4dle of next month.While passing through Paris she considerably replenished her theatrical wardrobe.Two Viennese composers of operetta have retired from the field.Johann Strauss declares that he will trouble himself to write no more scores until somebody comes forward with a libretto to make the labor werth his while, and Carl Milloecker 1s rich enough to declare that he is not willing to take the trouble to compose and produce a work now in view of the little profit that is likely to come from it.Despite the enormous sums earned by vocalists, few singers achieve the enviable position of Mr.Edward Lloyd, whose retirement is announced.The unique position which Mr.Lloyd has occupied in the musical world for many years past is such that his absence from the platform will leave a void which will be difficult to fill.At the opera it is different; but Mr.Lloyd, unlike his great predecessors, Incledon, Braham, and Sims Reeves, has always shunned the stage, and has confined Kim- self exclusively to the concert-room.There for nearly thirty years he has reigned preeminent.Since he first leapt into popularity at the Gloucester Musical Festival of 1871, Mr.Lloyd has been called upon to create the chief tenor parts in practically Every new oratorio and cantata from a British pen; while, as a singer of ballads, po Photo Frames Some most artistic lines of Ç Photo Frames, selected in Europe during the past summer, are now on view.12\" They are principally of three Kinds, Solid Silver, Solid Silver set with Rhinestones, and Real Ormolu Bronze, with a number of patterns in each IX style, many being exceedingly à handsome.Riya Henry Birks & Sons, F : PHILLIPS SQUARE, Montreal, his artists up to the neces- | against British vocalists on the Continent.Mr.Lloyd, who 1s now only fifty-four, prefers to retire on an ample fortune, and thenceforward to live the life ot a country gentleman.Happily his final appearance will not take place till nearly two years hence.A new musical paper has appeared edited by John C.Freund, New York.It is ' bright, attractive and newsy, and deserves :& successful career.Gustav Mahler, the conductor of the Vienna Opera, has composed a symphony which will apparently beat the record.1t has five movements, the last two with chorus, and the score calls for an immense body of strings to balance six horns, four i clarinets, four trombones, five kettle drums, two tom-toms, two harps, ete.It is rarely that an orchestra can celebrate its three-hundred-and-fiftieth anniversary, as the Royal Orchestra of Dresden did on September 22.Its first condue- tor, in 1617, was Heinrich Schutz, known as \u2018the father of German music.\u201d Weber and Wagner have also led this celebrated organization.Up to last year there had been fourteen Handel Festivals at the Crystal Palace, London.The smallest attendance was in 1865, with 59,434, while the largest on record was the 87,784 attendance of 1883.On eight occasions an attendance of 80,000 has been exceeded.À committee in Moscow is intending to erect a school on the Wychwotinzy property of the late Anton Rubinstein in memory of the deceased composer.It is to be called the Rubinstein Memorial School, and is to be open to matives and strangers.Great attention will be paid to choral singing and music in general.The committee have 11,000 rubles in hand, and hope to lay the first stone on November 20, the anniversary of Rubinstein\u2019s death in 1894, New York has lost its opportunity of securing the greatest living operatic com.ductor.Hans Richter has apparently accepted an offer to conduct the Manchester concerts gt a salary of $7,500 for six months.The Pall Mall Gazette prints this extract from a recent letter received from Richter : I beg to inform you that I am now preparing to accept the position of conductor of the Halle concerts, and to sign a contract on the terms and conditions set forth in your letter of November 12, 1895, .It is, of course, quite self- understood that I should reside in Manchester or in the immediate vicinity; also that during the period of my contract with you I shall not undertake any other artistic engagements.I only need mention that desire to have leave of absence to conduct the Birmingham festival, which takes place once every three years.MUSIC AND DRAMA.At the Academy next week occurs the great gala event of the season, the ocea- sion being the annual appearance of the always reliable J.H.Haverley\u2019s American- European Minstrels, this time presenting à programme of minstrelsy that excels all previous efforts and does the great name of Haverley proud.The register of members engaged includes the best obtainable.and the highest-salaried American artists, all of whom have clear records, with the best of organizations.A word to the wise is sufficient.Prepare to see the greatest all-round minstrel show of modern times.From a sombre yet pretty love story of the western mountains, as told in \u201cDavy Creckett,\u201d to the rich comedy of Sothern\u2019s, \u201cThe Highest Bidder,\u201d is a big jump.The Francais Stock Company feels capable of undertaking it, and on Monday next, therefore, this celebrated Lyceum success wil be played in Montreal for the first time in Canada.The entire Francais company will be engaged in the production and in addition Mr.Morris McHugh will make his first appearancé in a character role.Swift and Chase have been engaged as the head liners of what looks like a first-class vaudeville bill.Marshall Clen- ents and the Little Sunshine, who are said to be clever singers and dancers are also in the bill.armies On Monday, continuing for a week, \u201cLost, Strayed or Stolen,\u201d will be presented at the Queen\u2019s Theatre.The comedy is replete with fun, fast and furious, and is greeted with bursts of applause and merriment everywhere.The mistakes of the young man Who is doing his best to find his only baby boy are most ludicrous.He is assisted by three jolly fellows and a score of others.The comedy is full of complicated situations, tha unravelling of which causes unbounded merriment.The musical portion is very strong, and several pleasing specialties are introduced.The comedy is well known throughout the United States on account of its twenty weeks\u2019 run in New York City, at Miner\u2019s 5th Avenue Theatre, also all the large cities in the east and west.\u2014 The offering at the Theatre Royal for the week of October 31st is the famous Bon Ton Burlesquers, ah aggregation that is 385 days ahead of all others, a title + which they truly deserve, as they are { among the first in the field to supply the cream of fun and novelty to the theatre- going public.The management has this season secured the best talent available | and has for a curtain raiser the bright ;

and if all his plans were accomplished today it would be no match unaided for England's.Russia would draw closer to i agiand and the present rapprochement between the two countries has disturbed Gallis equanimity.Other Ends than War.The French Government is seeking other ends than war in its pretensions over Fashoda.When some of the Boulevard sheets shriek over French rights in the Upper Nile and make light of war with England, their real purpose is to make the situation as uncomfortable as possible for the ministry that has undertaken the revision of the Dreyfus trial.When not a few English newspapers speak of French claims and policies in Africa and of the course of M.Brisson\u2019s Government in lauguage that might well drive a less gensitive and hasty péople than that of Paris to reckless action, they are only praotising the new journalism, assiduous- lv copied from American newspapers that ; they profess to despise, and adoption of vices rather than of virtues that is weakening the old reputation of the British press for accuracy, moderation and decent manm®rs.Tha skill with which the two chief examplers of the new fashions in Londen\u2014tihe Daily \u2018l'elegrdoh and ithe Daily Mail\u2014have exaggerated and dis- ftorted the whole Fashoda episode, bawling the quarelsome costers in a public house, shows that they have little to learn from certain corners of Park Row.None the less, the English Gosern- ment and public opinion in England take the French occupation of Fashoda very seriously.Apart from the sound and fury of irresponsible newspapers there is grave regolution among the men who direct the course of the Government, and back of them is the firm support of all the influential elements, especially in the governing class, that guide public opinion.The full possession of the main stream of the Nile from the Mediterranean to the lakes of Central Africa and to Uganda is one of the great essentials of English policy.It stands on all fours with the maintenance of -com- munication by the Mediterranean with India or the strengthening of English dominion in South Africa.Con- gervative and Liberal cabinets have alike upheld it.There is no division in English opinion, high or low, as to it.No ministry could live, Lord Rosebery truly said last night at Epsom, that abandoned, jeopardized or much weakened it.A minister like Lord Salisbury would think many times before rival powers in China; he would make West Africa because they are less important than the maintenance of friendly rela- powers, Public opinion would criticize them, often for partizan ends, without laying them much to heart.But it would rise in anger at any yielding as to the valley of the Upper Nile The English Protectorate.Before the days of the Mahdi the basin made a part of the dominions of the Khe- dive and.of the English protectorate over them.The Anglo-Egyptian army has just reconquered them.By \u201cold dominion\u201d and present conquest and occupation it belongs to England and to Egypt.Long ago Sir Edward Grey's statement at the command of his chief, Lord Salisbury, that | any intrusion of the forces of another power there would be counted an un- riendly act was the natural coroliary of these vested rights.Time and again in the ast the French Foreign Office has acknow- edged them.Even the far-sighted M.Hanotaux does not seem to have foreseen that these admissions would ever weaken French pretensions.The English Govern- tient purposes to keep the door open for the trade of all comers in the valley of the Nile.Frenchmen and French wares can go to and fro at will on the great river from the Mediterranean to the I'rench possessions in the Congo basin.Lord Salisbury is acting with a reso.ution, courtesy and moderation worthy of him at his best.By his comamnd, the English in Egypt are keeping M.Marchand and his little company at Fashoda from starving and carrying letters and telegrams to them.Yet he will not permit them the slightest semblance of authority there\u2014the Soudanese troops have them effectually isolated\u2014and he will not enter into negotiations until the French government has ordered them to withdraw.For the first time in months Lord Salisbury has no hostile critics worth heeding to hamper him at home.The Queen, with all her dislike of \u201ccrisis\u201d and the peril of war, knows when to submit to public opinion, and she is at one with her ministers.The real aim of French policy is not the possesion of Fashoda, but the exchange of it, so to say, for compensations eise- where in Africa.If the Quai d\u2019Orsay were of these c¢ompensa\u2018iong in subsequent me gta \u2018ons if it ard Downing street could only devise à way to take M.Marchand out\\to Fashoda with ut undue wounding of French pride and exciting of French opinion, especially in those quarters where any stick is good encugh to beat poor M !

advertising the num berless attractions the Province has to offer the disciples of the rod and gun, one of the best paying classes of all those who desert the summer heat of the city for the cool shades of the forests and the enervating breeze of the lakes, Quebec is a vast sportsman\u2019s Paradise, and if this fact 38 properly put before the public it will prove one of the greatest drawirg cards the Tourist Association could produce.With the awakening interests in this feature of Quebec\u2019s richness it is hop- el will come a proper appreciation of the importance of go Protecting our game that the supply will never run out.In the States at the present time there is a campaign being waged against those peo- bie who go shooting simply to satisfy their.lust for killing, and whose consideration for the amount of game they can make use of never stays their hand as lung as another opportunity for them to kill something presents itself.This wanton waste of game is one of the worst features that the protective societies nave ta contend against, and at present all their forces are being brought to bear to work out a solution of the problem.The first step to be taken is to anake the waste of game illegal.Generally game laws are made to be left at the nearest station to the hunting figld, but the knowledge that he is doing an illegal act certainly hag a restraining eflect om any man.In Colorado it is against the law for a man to shuot more game than he can make use of, and the penalty for an infringement 18 severe.As far as I know no game laws in Canada contain such an enactment.They should.But, of coutse, with or without laws, the remedy lies with those who do the shooting.Sportsmen never abuse the pr vilege that nature has granted them, but the dlass of men referred to above are everywhere found.\u2018They are not true sportsmen.If they were they would see that a wanton waste would surely cause a woeful want before many years have passed.\u2018They would protect their own interests, and consult their own pleasure, by curbing their thirst for blood.But when a man has a rifle in his hand and a moose stands at a distance with his head poised proudly in the air, it is difficult to restrain the itching of the fingers to tighten on the trigger.But he with an eye to the future supply of game can re strain himself.Others should stay at home and leave the hunting to be done by those who can stop the slaughter wher, they have secured all the game they can make use of.An association with a very worthy object\u2014the League of American Sportsmen\u2014has been organized in New York, and thas members all over the country.Each member pledges himself to do all in his power to see that the game laws are observed, and all are ready to see that those who are guilty of infractions are made to suffer.Here we have the excellent fish and game protective club which is doing really good work.But as I said before, the remedy rests with those who shoot, and until they see the folly of wholesale destruction of game mere laws will go for naught.But, at the same time, let us have the law, for its salutory effect will IT some measure commence the good work that only faithful misstonary efforts can carry to a successful issue.While on the subject of game laws it would be a good time to refer to the suggestion made in these columns a year aco, viz.,, that a universal game law for the Dominion be passed.It does not seem right that a gentleman residing in Quebec cannot enjoy the sporting privileges of Ontario without paying the twenty-five or thirty doslars required for a license.I don\u2019t think the laws were passed to prohibit the sportsmen of one province from enjoying thé sport in another province.It is quite right to make foreigners pay for the privilege of shooting over our fields and in our forests, but a Canadian should be allowed to shoot at will from the Atlantic to the Pacific.In as far as it refers to the open and close seasons, of course, the law could be fixed to suit the local conditions, but matters could be arranged.to work more satisfactorily under one law that would cover all Canada.It seems absurd that a Quebecer can shoot along his side of the Ottawa river all he likes, but in order to cross over to Ontario he must procure a license at a considerable cost.I see no reason why the provinces should not adopt a policy af reciprocity in connection with their game.Those who are looking ahead of the times in their consideration of the game question say that every man who shoots should be forced to procure a permit, This is one of the ideas of the League of American sportsmen and if it were the only branch of the work it carried out it would have accomplished a great deal.Tt would make the contravention of that pare of the law which states how much a man can export a matter easy to detect, as the railroad agents could demand the permit and ascertain the residence of the shooter and how much and what he was allowed to shoot, It would serve to keep a close eye on the sportsmen, and altogether greatly assist in a prover observance of tha law.And any sportsman who had the good of the country at heart would be quite willing to go to the little trouble it would be in securing his permit and registering his name and residence.BASEBALL.NATIONAL LEAGUE AVERAGES.Washington, D.C.,

scrimmage, kreeborn, Hinch, McCarthy; wings, Ryckman, Barry, Dore, Marsnail, Tracey, Martin, Ripley, Dewar, Cook and White.There has been little or no betting on the game as yet, Lut the betting will likely be at even money.TO-DAY\u2019S U.S.GAMES.Pennsylvania vs.University of Clic at Franklin Field.of Chicago, Harvard vs, Carlisle Indians, at bridge, Mass, vale vs.West Point, at West Point, Cam-

the rules of horse racing this week.They are all directed to improving the staying powers of English thoroughbreds.\u2018The exper- lence of recent years has shown that French horses are better over long distances than English.The latter, though they have been started for several, have not carried off one of te big Paris prizes this year.The Gold Cup at Ascot, on the other hand, brought out a field of five last June and only one was an English horse.Three were French and one was Argentine.I'he trouble undoubtedly arises from sprinkling races among two- year-olds too early in their careers and consequent lack of stamina for the big open events later on.Two-vear-old events generally lead to lively betting, and have consequently been encouraged at many race meetings.The new rules declare that there must not be more than two such events at any meeting, and that no two- vear-olds shall run in any race with more than 200 sovereigns added before June 1.Even this js a long way behind the French rules.A two-year-old may not race there before Sept.1.Another alteration in the rules is that one-half at least of the total amount of prize money at every meeting shall be apportioned to races of a mile or over for three-year-olds or upward.Further, there must not be more than two races to which three-vear-oads or upward are admitted of less than seven furlongs.Even more drastic rules than those now carried by the Jockey Club were proposed to at twenty years ago by Sir Joseph Hawley and Mr.Chaplain, and supported by the then Lord Derby; but they wer lost by twenty-five votes to eighte~n, although the minority included some of the best 4portsmen on the turf.Unfortunately, Sir Joseph Hawley was then one of the most unpopular men in racing circles, a heavy gambler and patron of most of the abuses he condemned.A few weeks before he brought forward his important reforms he had been hissed on Epsom racecourse for having scratched Vagabond, who was a great favorite, for the City and Suburban.Feeling ran so \u2018high that at dinner at the Jockey Club the late Lord Hardwicke threw an orange at Sir Joseph\u2019s head.Of his then supporters the Duke of Richmond is almost the only one now alive; while three, Sir Frederick John- stone, Prince Soltykoff and Lord Abing- ton, have lived to see their vote of twenty years ago against restricting two-year- olds racing reversed this week.In recent years horses which have run often at that age, even if they have wom the Derby the following season, have been almost done with when they were three- year-olds.A sound sportsman says that for two-year-olds to win short sprinting races they must be forced almost from birth and thus the way young horses are ted is equivalent to giving the meat of strong men to children and filling them with all manner of rich food.One of the most successful men the turf here has ever known was Sir Charles Bunbury, who won the first Derby, and twice later was victorious in the same race.lt used to be said that he starved his young stock, which really meant that he had them brought up in a natural and hardy manner, giving them plenty of liberty.The present difficulty is that as race meetings increase in number horses cannot be found to meet the demand.There has been comsequently a growing i CR DR.CODERRE\u2019S RED PILES PALE-WEAM WOMEN BOX OF 50 PILLS 50 CENTS \u201d a tendency to get more runners by means Ve Sci racing, which at early periods undoubtedly saps the breed.Probably the new rules will result in some meetings dropping out of existence.Few eportsmen will mourn their departure.THE SWIMMING CLUB.The Season Has Not Been as Profitoble as Those of the Past and Effort Will Be Made to Meet the Deficit.At a recent meeting of the Executive Board of the Montreal Swimming Club a statement showing a deficit for the current year was laid before them by the manager, Mr.Dariing, who stated that never in his long expenience, nor in the history of the ciuv (organized in 1876), had the membership fallen off so disastrously.The loss is attributed mainly to the ae- tion of the\u2019 Parks and Ferry Committee in refusing wheelmen the privilege of using their wheels on the island and to tae raw and unfavorable opening of the summer.After deliberation, the board considered the difficuities were of a\u201d temporary nature only, and decided to appeal to the public to assist them in making up the deficit.As a first step to this end, the club has secured the Victoria Rifles Ar mory H#l for a smoking concert on Friday, November 25th, in aid of the funds They should receive every encouragement in the endeavor to maintain a club which for 23 years has been educating the young boys in swimming.J ; Surrounded, as Morftreal 1s, with facili- t'es for aquatie sport, every boy should lcarn to swim, therol= lessening the number of fatalities that mark every season.THE WHEEL.NOW IT'S A LIBEL SUIT.New York, Oct.28\u2014Isaac B.Potter, as president of the League of American Wheelmen; Albert Mott, as chairman of the Racing Board; and Albert Sturmer, as secretary of the Racing Board, have been sued for $25,000 damages by the American Cycle Racing Association for alleged libel.Mr.Potter was served with a summons, and complaint in the action by the attorneys for the plaintiffs, Ditten- hoefer, Gerber & James, yesterday.\u2018Lhe American Cycle Racing Association is composed of P.T.Powers, A.G.Batch- elder, James C.Kennedy and William A.Brady.The alleged libel complained of was, according to the plaintiffs, uttered on Oe- tober 24th last.It consisted of a warning to cyclists who contemplate taking part in the bie six-day race which the Ameri- \u2018can Cycle Racing Association proposes to give av Madisou Square Garden on the week beginning December 5th.The alleged libel was published in a lo cal newspaper as having been issued in the form of a bulletin by Mr.Mott from his headquarters in Baltimore.The Ame- vican Racing Association claims that the notice was issued by the league with the intention of hurting the projected meeting at Madison Square Garden.It is also alleged that the \u2018\u2018warning\u201d was issued with malicious intent.By reason of the publication the American Racing Association says that it has been injured to the extent of $25,000.YACHTING, THE NEW RESTRICTIONS.New York, Oct.28.\u2014Chas.Sherman, of the Seawanhaka-Corinthian Yacht Club, was seen to-day and asked what arrangements the club was making for next year\u2019s international race.He replied : \u201cNothing definite has been decided as yet.Our committee is arranging the new restrictions, and when they are finished they will be sent to the Royal St.Lawrence Yacht Club, of Montreal, for ratification.One of the members of our committee is out of town, and Fhe can be done until he returns.\"he mew restrictions will be ready next \u2018week, or possibly by the end of this week.\u201d WILL GIVE A BALL, The

Makes a General Reference to Canadian Matters.a Senna] Ne ORDER MENTIONED, tne Ottawa, Oct.29\u2014The address of the RoyalSociéiy of Canada was presented yesterday afternoon at Government House to the Governor-General and the Countess of Aberdeen by the president, Mr.1.C.Keefer, C.M.G., acccompanied by Sir John VICTORIAN er, hon.freas.; Sir S.Fleming, K.C.M.G.; Dr.G.M.Dawxs, C.M.G.: Sir James Grant, K.C.M.G.; E.Deville, W.W.Campbell, B.Sulte, Dr.Saunders, Dr.3.E.Dawson, Dr.DeCelles, A.Lampman, and other fellows resident in Ottawa.The address is of elaborate design.On the wmitial page, containing the inscription of the address, done in two large ovals set siue by side, is a device of purple flag lilies, surmounted by the double \u201cA\u201d in monogram and coronet.The address proper nccuples nine sheets, the lettering set in two oblong spaces, the English and French versions side by side.Each sheet is surmounted by a broad border of illustrations and decoration.On innumerable little medallions, wreathed round by the groundwork of flcral design, are views of Canadian scenes, from Summerside and Halifax on the far eastern coast to Victoria, on the IsMnd of Vancouver, in the Pacific Ocean.Exquisite views of the Chateau de Ramezay, McGill College, Victoria Hospital, Toronto University, Maisonneuve\u2019s monument, St.John, Halifax, Quebec Parliament Buildings, citadel and gates, Kingston, Winnipeg, scenes on the picturesque rivers and bays of the lower provinces, Grandpre and the Basin of Minas, scenes among the Thousand Islands, on the prairies of the North-West, in the Rocky Mountains and Selkirk range, in the Kootenay country, and even as far north as Five Finger Rapids in the Yukon dis- trict\u2014are depicted in miniature framings less than two inches in diameter.The only view outside the Dominion is one of Haddo House, Their Excellencies\u2019 home in Scotland, and which appropriately faces the sketch of Rideau Hall.The devices for the groundwork of the borders embrace designs of hyrangea, pond lillies, clover, vine, maple leave, lepatica, the Nova Sco- tian mayflewer, a device of rose, thistle and maple leaves, and one of marguerites and butterflies.On one page, specially devoted to reminiscences of the Victorian Order of Nurses, is a maple wreath in the shape of a V forming a background for a medallion portrait of Her Majesty, while the rest of the decoration of the sheet show the light and dark-blue ribband of the Order, and detached forget- me-not, flowers.The last sheet embraces various scenes of winter sports and amusements, set iin borders of snow on a ground of pine branches and maple leaves.The arms of the several provinces of the Dominion are distributed through the different sheets amongst the other decorations.«The address was designed by Mr.A.G.Doughty, the illumination and etching was done by Mr.Lyndewode Percira, of the Interior Department, and the lettering bv Mr.R.P.King, of the House of Commons.Tt exnreseed in glowing terms admiration for Their Excellencies, and tenders the thanks of the Society for the interest taken in it and Canadan matters in general by Lord and Lady Aberdeen.Lord Aberdeen\u2019s Reply.His Excellency, in replying, expressed the great pleasure which he and Lady Aberdeen experienced at being made the recipient of so flattering an address, couched in such graceful language, and which deserved the highest consideration from the fact that it came from so dis tinguished and so representative body as the Royall Society of Canada.As for the address itself he designated it as \u201cnothing less than a storehouse of delightful artistic design and pictorial art,\u201d and as- sered his hearers that it would not ouly be a cherished possession of Lady Aberdeen and himself, but would \u201cform a lasting and delightful souvenir\u201d for tnemn and their children and friends for many a long day.Referring to the society itself, he made allusion to the prominent position it occupied, and the good work it was doing and referred to the great interest shown in it by his predecessors, Lord Lorne, Lord Lansdowne and the Earl of Derby, and assured his hearers that it would always occupy a very warm corner in his own heart.Continuing, His Excellency said, \u201cNature has not endowed me with a very pachydermatous ex- terral covering in matters of this sort\u2014 (laughter)\u2014therefore I must be careful and not try to express too fully the feeling prompted at the present time.Among the many special points and features ot whidh you have spoken you can easily believe that \u2018the reference to Lady Aberdeen (who in a very full sense is the joint recipient of this address) you can, I say, casily believe that these words of kind goodwill, confidence, encouragement and appreciation, come home to me as well as to her with peculiar significance.I feel quite sure, gentlemen, that you will never have to alter or even to modify your expressions of confidence and approval in regard to those movements with which Lady Aberdeen has been associated in this country.(Applause.) I believe these movements are being placed on a firm and sure foundation, and that they will go on and prosper.I need hardly say that I allude to the National Council of Women, a society which has conferred among many others this benefit, that it has brought together workers for the pullic welfare not only different in origin aad race, but also in polities and opinions :n a manner in which they have never been brought before.I would also allude to the Victorian Order of Nurses, which was founded as a national memorial of the Queen\u2019s diamond jubilee, and which has Her Majesty's special personal sanction and approval.This 1s an undertaking still in its infancy, but one as to the future of which I feel the utmost confi- cence.Every day shows how it is being apprpeciated and how it meets a real need, The Royal Society.\u201cWhile speaking of the position and alluding to the history of the Royal Society during the past five years I cannot nelp wishing to make a passing reference to an incident of interest to all the members of that body, namely, the fact that some of them have received marks of distinction at the hands of tle Queen.(Applause.) We may be sure that while members of societies have occasion to distinguish themselves in otter ways, their eervices to, the Royal Society have certainly formed mo small element in the case.Naturally, I refer to the honor conferred upon one whose mame more than that of any other has been identified with the work and promotion of this society, Sir John Bourinot.It is most essential country that it should possess writers and scholars and leaders of thought, who will guide the people to interest themselves in wider questions than those concerned with local interests or provincial affairs.They like to take their place in the world at large, and \u2018therefore when individual | Canadians make the country known and roke themselves known we may feel that Bourinot, K.C.M.G., hon.-sec., Dr.Fletch- for the life and growth of every young they are benefactors of the country and thus deserving of honor and distinction.I make that observation with reference to Sir John Bourinot because J have noticed that his name ie very familiar in England and in other parts of the British Emr pire.So I eay that not only the members of the Royal Society but all Canadians may feel gratified when men like Dr.Bourinot and Sir Sandford Fleming are selected for distinction.And now, gentlemen, I wish to endeavor to express in a concentrated way our thanks, not only for the action of to-day, but for past manifestations of unvarying courtesy, con- Slceration and thoughtfulness.It is a great happiness to feel that we may claim acquaintance and more than acquaintance with those present.We feel some of our oldest and best friends are here, and it anything could be added to the earnest ness with which we offer our thanks and good wishes it would be ithe constitution of this representative gathering of members of the Royal Society.(Applause.) To the president and all present I personally and for Lady Aberdeen also give cur united, hearty and warm greetings, thanks and good wishes.(Loud applause.)

over the week previous.The spell of mild weather has interfered with business to a certain extent, but the last few days the weather has been more seasonable, and if it continues mer chants confidently expect \u2018still better things, It looks as if the farmers in the west were going to fare well.Wheat is un doubtedly in a ves strong position statistically, and prices are firm, notwithstanding the fact that the war scare in Europe seems to be about over.And the crops, too, are turning out a IM¥t'e better than was at first expected.It is true that there has been a great deal of damage in Manitoba, but as Hon.Clifford Sifton cabled Lord Stratheona the other day it has been over-estimated.Coarse grains have turned out well in Ontario, and there is also a good promise of stiff prices, pretty profit- alle figures even ruling at present.The Trade Bulletin says: \u201cThe wholesale trade has manifested A Quieter Disposition during the past week, owing to the open, niild spell of weather, copious ra\u2018ns, and bad roads, which has been a drawback to business in \u2018the intenior, but making due allowance for these disadvantages, a good ordinary volume of trade has been effected after all.With no misgivings of the future, wince farmers have bountiful crops securely housed, with the prospect of getting remunérative prices, storekeepers order with much more confidence and freedom than at this time last year.But what better proof need be adduced to demonstrate the soundness of the present mercantile status than the remarkable freedom from big failures?A large dry goods merchant etated a few days ago that even in the matter of small failures and compromises that are seldom heard of, he never remembers having so few to worry him as at the present time.With a big crop of wheat to market in \u2018he North-West, and another large one in On- tardo, with good crops of roots and coarse grains in Ontario and Quebec, it i8 many years since we had such splendid prospects as the present, on the threhold of a yong winter.Money Ÿ firm, and it looks as if it was going higher.Call loans are quoted at 4 1-2 to 5 per cent, and mercantile paper is discounted at 6 to 7 per cent.as to name and nature of account.Montreal Fxports.The export movement to Europe the past week has been large, grain, produce and apples taking the lead.i ments for the

the acute stage has passed in the Anglo-French dispute in Africa has checked the speculative buying in wheat for the moment, and the bears are Again In control of the market.Liquidation and re-adjusfment of accounts are bound to occur after every such upheaval in values.But the strong statistical position of wheat remains.The needs of foreign countries made the markets abroad particularly sensitive to foreign political complications.The recent advance in Averpool was at least noteworthy.That market advanced from October lst to the 24th 15d or 30 cents per cental, equal to 18 cents per bushel, while New York advanced 11 cents, and freight advanced three cents, leaving a net advance of four cents over New York.This enabled the export houses very naturally to do the immense business recorded.The decline of & 34d.since Monday, or 6 1-2 cents per bushel, compares with a three cent decline it New York, but still leaves the Liverpool market relatively higher than in the first week of October.It will be remembered that a \u2018similar bulge and decline in 1896 was followed by an active bull market in November and December of that year.Dcean freight room is engaged =o far ahead that larve clearances are assured for weeks.When Lie present speculative weakness has been adjusted it would seem that wheat values should not be under present prices unless Turopean demand is greatly over estimated, and the export should fall off or the visible supply increase at a phenomenal pace.\" Larger Than Expected.\u201cThe fall pack of salmon is not so light as has been

Review.Dun\u2019s Review says: \u201cSince our lat report the main feature of the trade situation at Montreal is the paucity of failures in the district, there being only three reported for the week, and they of insignificant character.Collections are favorably spoken of.The weather, up to Thursday, has bardly been conducive to activity in dry goods and kindred lines, the proportion of mildness and dampness Leing unusual to the season, but city retailers report business good on fine days, and wholesalers are not apparently die- posed to complain of sorting orders, while an increasing volume of orders is reported for such lines of spring goods as are now being sold, namely, prints, cotton goods, tweeds, etc.Woollen manufacturers though all busy, are comparatively light buyers of raw wool, finding it bard apparently to accept the situation with regard to the firmer prices prevailing.Groceries are moving briskly countrywauds; sugar refiners report good demand from the West, and seem a little firmer in their ideas as to values, owing to a stronger market in New York, but there is no revision of quotations.Some complaints are heard of cutting in prices of dried fruits, for which there seems lt*le exouse, especially at this season when the demand is good.Some improvement 1s noted in the shoe trade, sorting orders coming in better, and a fair proportion of spring orders ig also reported.Mainu- facturers in this line are making more enquiries regarding leather, but the actual volume of local business in this latter line does not yet show much increase.Outgoing steamers are taking liberal shipments of sole leather, and are likely to continue so doing up to the close of navigation.In oils, paints, glass, etc., a sat- isfaetory turnover is shown; turpentine has been subject to another heavy advance, owing to a large shortage in the south, and prices are up 5 cents a gallon.Cements are quiet at the present, but a good deal of business is calculated on yet this fall, if the weather proves fairly open; receipts this week are large.The money market is barely as firm as it was; the banks seem to have am abundance of money, and there is a sort of feeline in some quarters that the rate for call loans may go back to four per cent.\u201d Trade in THronto.Toronto, Oct.28.\u2014The mild weather with trade in certain lines in this market and a drop in the

everyday life, a very small percentage among us can de- \u2018 vote much time to the serous study of art.A love of gam has been implanted in our nature, and is necessary to enable us to fulfil the active offices and duties of life.Yet all of us require to be drawn out of the depths of materialism and at times to indulge in what the Germans call The play impulse.\u201d Now, many are of the opinion that it is requisite that a person must paint or write poetry to appreciate the beauties or defects embodied in the works of those who follow art as a profession.Yet it is true that earnest study and knowledge of technique is desirable in a certain measure in order to enable us to give an intelligent and correct opinion.It is this being both artist and writer that imparts the great value attached to the writings of the late P.Q.Hammerton.And we have an instance of capability to judge the merits of a poem in \u201cThe Study of the Princess,\u201d by Dr.S.E.Dawson, and although we do not remember ever geeing a line or verse of poetry written by that gentleman, yet in that study we ind keen perception and good judgment.* * + In the common acceptation of the word taste we must admit it is in a certain degree intuitive in its nature, and often operates uncousciousiy from na ura.causes without reterence to reason and experience.This laculty 1s born in some of us in a greater digree

our opinions, we can conveniently do so.* * By the proper cultivation of our taste for the bewut.es of ua.ure we feel the 1m- pulse of hgher motives than those per: taining to mere m.nal enjoyment.And we are led to take greater pleasure in the grouping of the mountain forms, or in the ever-moving, ever-changing cioud forms, causing by their motion light and shade, imparting to the landscape an end- and shaduws that b.ighten a hundred different hues of green on broad meadows and upland fallows.Al nature speaks in a language of beauty to the possessor of a refined and cul.ivated taste.To them how numerous and varied the émpressions, how manifoid the combinations, how exquisite the plea: sures produced by the contemplation of | the natural world.Their intellectual faculties are called into pay.Memory, com parison, analys's, ccmbination, classification and induction, afford them pleasures countless in number end inestimable in value, is for truth.A painting true in all its parts, or music that is correct in harmony, pleases the cultivated taste, and we judge it by a preconceived standard, which, having stood the test of time and the approval of those competent to judge.and in whose judgment we have confidence.we mnaturaly adhere to.Yet we must not forget that nations and people difler regarding a standard of taste.This question naturally leads one to enquire, Where is the best standard to be found upon which vo base our judgment ?In our educational establishments in Montreal there has lately been am attempt made to teach drawing, .giving it a place among the other studies.But it appears we have but an imperfect idea of what is requisite in order to carry out a proper system.There is something more wanting than mere teaching of the freedom of the hand in drawing.There is the proper cultivation of taste and the education of the eve so as to develop the faculty of sight and the power to observe correctly.; Is Ts tite that any child who can wrife can learn to draw.But the art of designing is more difficult to teach, and it is just here that judgment and taste enter in.It is by no means enough to educate \u2018them as mere copyists.Something more is needed, for in designing the creative | power is devel-ped and a certain individuality given to their work.The children now attending school will in the future either become producers or | éonsumers, and as consumers it is quite | as necessary that their taste should be cultivated, for a cultivated taste nwt lov our likings.P Now, how is this to be accomplished if the young are to depend uron ineXperienced teachers who have reccived no pro per training ?If we desire to make drawing a success we must employ teach- \"ers thoroughly truined in industrial art, | possessing a knowledge of the different | styles of ornament and their proper application, capable also oi explaining the true principles of design and of.cultivat- i ing a correot taste.Many of those now attempting to teach in the art line have received but a slight training, and are not competent to teach others, yet they are preferred to trainea teachers because they are cheap.This 1s poor economy.À false direction is orten given the pupils under their instruction.acqu.re And many things the pupls a there will have a.terwards to be discarded.lt is difficuit to erad.cate bad meth- 5.ow many do we meet who cannot draw vou à §.ipie .eal correctly if you test them, and yet they can show you paindNgs as specimens of their work.In ehe present day would it not be well to pause and consider if we are not developing a desire to discover easy paths to kiiow.edge, to creat.without labor, developing a disinclination to study.Whether in the arts cr otherwise, we must so direct sound education that the pupil will be enabled to draw plain conciusions from p.ain facts; that will lead to patient thought, deveiop energy, enabling them | to evercome difficulties and form charac- | tars.For work which is intended to last must have a broad, deep and well-laid foundation.Not for the purpose of gaining & mere superficial knowledge for ostentatious display or for gain solely, but for the better

inclination for each other, they took the precaution of standing together as godfather and godmother at the christening of a chi'd in one of the peasant families.This rendered marriage impossible, according to Russian Church law, The stratagem was usually successful, but once it ended in a drama.Andrel, the tailor, fell in love with a girl belonging to one of our neighbors.He hoped that my

Friday night the first good effects of the medicine were made evident in Mrs.Adams getting sound refreshing sleep, the first good night's rest she had had in months.From that day on every day found her improving in hea'th and getting stronger.\u2018The terrible pains that used to shoot through her head and arms disappeared, the spells of numbness and partial paraly- gis that came over her at tines bothered her no more.Soon she was able to re- gume her household duties, and in addition bake her own bread, a thing she had not attempted for the past two years.Today Mrs.Adama is thankful to Mil- burn\u2019s Heart and Nerve Pills for sparing her life to her children and husband, and under date of April 4th, 1898, wrote as follows: , 3: \u201cI! had given up all hope of recovering, and frequently thought I could not live through a day.Partial Paralysis and Heart Trouble After the Doctors Had Given.Her Up to Die.| \u201c¥ainting spells, numbness and partial paralysis came upon me very often, soine- times seven spells in half a day.I was in this helpless and hopeless condition when a friend advised me to try Mil- burn\u2019s Heart and Nerve Pills, which I secured at Mr.Nicoll\u2019s drug store.1 had not taken them long when I noticed a great change for the better, and before 1 had used half a box I was up doing my own housework.\u201cBy the time the first box was completed 1 was able to walk down town and back quite easily, a distance of half à mile each way.\u201c1 cannot speak too highly of Mil- burn\u2019s Heart and Nerve Pills, as they saved my life and restored my health.\u201d ELIZABETH ADAMS.1.C.Nicholls, B.A., the popular druggist and stationer of Uxbridge, who sold Mrs.Adams the pills, is ready to vouch for the truthfulness of the above statement.This case of Mrs.Adams is only one of the thousands that Milburn\u2019s Heart and Nerve Piite are curing all over Canada.Anvone afflicted with weak, palpitating, throbbing heart, nervousness, sleeplessness, faint and dizzy spells, pale sallow complexion, thin, watery blood, dyspepsia, weakness, loss of flesh, spinal disease, St.Vitus\u201d Dance, etc., will find Milburn\u2019 Heart and Nerve Pills the remedy indicated.For women they are specially beneficial, imparting a rosy color to the pallid cheek and giving relief from pain and weakness.Growing girls and nursing mothers have heavy draine on their systems, and will tind in Milburn\u2019s Heart and Nerve Pills the very elements that are needed to keep up their health and strength.Milburn\u2019s Heart and Nerve Pills are sold by all druggists, or sent by mail on receipt of price, 50c a box, or 3 boxes for $1.25.I.Milburn & Oo., Toronto, Ont.It required à man to serve twenty- The cruelty that THE INTERCOLONIAL COAL MINING COMPANY, LIMITED Works\u2014 DRUMMOND COLLIERY.Westville, Nova Scotia.Miners and Producers of \u201cDrummond * Coal and Coke, from the celebrated Pictou Seams of Nova Scotia.Offered in all sizes and quantities to suit purchasers.Shipments by water or rail.Head Office-190 COMMISSIONERS ST.Montreal.FINER GRADES, \u201cIndia Bright.\u201d \u201cRoyal.\u201d \u201cImperial Seota.\u2019 \u201cCarolina.\u201d C POLISHED GRADES | ;

The Daily News takes it for granted that Major Marchand will come to Paris.Another Minister Speaks.The first Cabinet Minister to speak publicly since the Cabinet council on Thursday is Lord Balfour of Burleigh, Secretary for Scotland, who, when addressing a meeting last evening at Galashiels, Scotland, declared that it was the settled policy of the Government that the valley of the Nile must be Egyptian ter- Titory.Earl Spencer, First Lord of the Admiralty, in Lord Rosebery\u2019s Government, in a strong speech last night at Greenock, endorsed Lord Salisbury\u2019s attitude toward the Egyptian question, and referred with great satisfaction to the prospect of an Anglo-Saxon entente.Baron De Courcel, the French Ambassador, had another long interview at the Foreign Office yesterday (Friday) with Sir Thomas Sanderson, permanent Under-Sec- | retary of State for Foreign Affairs, and there is no doubt that important matters were under discussion.The rumor was circulated on the Paris boulevards yesterday that Major Marchand would be recalled from Fashoda; but on neither side of the Channel\u2014certainly not on this side\u2014is any serious attention paid to the rumor that England will declare a protectorate over Egypt.The Paris correspondent of the Standard says: \u201cI have excellent authority for the assertion that Major Marchand left Fashoda on his own initiative, but that he will demand permission to withdraw the mission, since his men are dying of hunger and disease.\u201d The special correspondent of the Daily News at Omdurman telegraphs: \u201cI have reason to believe that Major Marchand is waiting for instructions to withdraw the French mission from Fashoda.\u201d THE NEWSPAPER WON.eae A Peculiar Action Taken Against the Ottawa Citizen by the Deputy

Major Gourdeau\u2019s daughter, and that the editor who wrote the heading did not even know Major Gourdeau or know of him.The Citizen would not apologize further, whereupon Major Gour- deau entered an action for damages.After the evidence for the plaintiff was put in the judge suggested that the case was cne for arrangement.Counsel and His Lordship accordingly retired from the court room when the suggestion was made by the judge that the Citizen should apologize, each side to pay its costs.This suggestion was not accepted, and the case went on.Before anv witnesses were called for the defence His Lordship said he thought there was no case for the jury with regard to the paragraph itself: but that there was in reference to the publication of the bulletin, accordingly the trial (went on.Several newspaper men who heard the case against the girl testified that she told them her name was Eva Gourdeau.After addresses last evening [ by counsel, Mr.Belcourt, M.P., for the plaintiff, and Mr.R.W.Shannon for the Citizen Company, Justice Street charged the jury, which after brief consideration returned a verdict for the Citizen with costs against Major Gourdeau.Lord Kitchener, London, Oct.29 \u2014General Kitchener, whose elevation to the peerage was announced on September 26, takes the title of Lord Kitchener of Khartoum and As- pall, in the County of Suffolk.It is said that a letter of welcome and com- gratulation from the Queen in Her Majesty\u2019s handwriting was handed to General Kitchener on his arrival at Dover.Twice to-day he visited the Prince of Wales at Marlborough House, at the latter interview having a long talk with the Prince.at Portsmouth.He writes that dockyard is full of unwonted activity, and echoes from end to end with the noise of preparations.Fifty torpedo boat destroyers are being rapidly overhauled, and can be made ready for service in a few | hours.Thousands of toss of coal are! being poured at topmost speed into the bunkers of several vessels, and food and ammunition are going aboard as rapidly as the men and derricks can work.Outside the dockyard there is similar activity.Throuhout the day there was a continuous boom on the coast, where the artillerymen were testing their guns.The forts at Spithead are taking in quantities of ammunition.The Southsea Common, close to Portsmouth, is dotted with tents, which are occupied by engineers and miners, who are erecting searchlight stations at breakneck speed.The earthworks all along the sea front age being strengthened, and there is evidence everywhere that preparafions are being made for the worst contingency.MONTREALER ROBBED.Gave a Friend $400 to Put on the Races But He Put it in His Stocking.Long Island City, Oct.29.\u2014When Chas.Roberts, of Montreal, a race track follower, was arraigned before Magistrate Smith yesterday, charged with grand larceny, the fruitless and expensive trip of Jacob Rosenthal to New York was made public.Rosenthal is 32 years old, a merchant tailor, and does business at 179 St.Antoine street, Montreal.He and Roberts had been friends until yesterday.Rosenthal was the complainant against Roberts, and accused him of stealing $400.Rosenthal stated that Roberts occasionally sent him *\u2018tips\u201d on the races.Roberts, a short time ago, told him that a \u201cgood thing\u201d was coming off at the Aque- duet track yesterday.Rosenthal came on from Montreal and met Roberts.They went to the Aqueduct track.Roberts told the tailor that the sure winner was \u201cStay-Sail,\u201d\u201d and that she was 20 to 1.Rosenthal stated that he gave Roberts $300 to place on the horse at the odds, and that Roberts returned in a short time bemoaning his luck at not, having more to put on the horse.Rosenthal stated that \u2018he gave Roberts another $100, and that he watched him.When Roberts did not visit the betting ring Rosenthal ber came suspicious.He waited until Roberts returned, aud then questioned him.Roberts said he had bet the money, and Rosenthal went to the bookmaker he said he had placed the $400 with.The bookmaker told Rosenthal Roberts had not het a penny on Stay-Sail.The bookmaker laughed at Rosenthal, saying it was foolish to bet on the horses, but exclaimed that he would take any bet that Rosen- thal might want to make, and that he would offer odds of 200 to 1 against Stay- Sail.Then Rosenthal decided to have Roberts arrested.When Roberts was searched, the $300 was found in his stocking, and the $100 given him the second time was in his under-clothing.\u2018The money is in the possession of the police.Rosenthal says he does not want to prosecute Roberts, and will go to Montreal if he can get his money.Roberts asked that his case be postponed so he could employ a lawyer.This was granted, but he could not furnish $1,300 bail, and was committed for an examination on Monday.MILITIA GENERAL ORDERS New Appointments to the Prince o Wales Fusiliers\u2014Other

London last night to Lord Curzon, of Kedleston, the new Viceroy of India; the Earl of Minto, the new Governor-General of Canada, and the Rev.Dr.Wolldon, Bishop-Designate of Calcutta, proved a remarkable gathering.The Earl of Rosebery presided, and the company of 230 guests included Mr.Arthur Balfour, First Lord of the Treasury and Government leader in the House of Commons; the Marquis of Lansdowne, Sexe- tary of State for War; and Baron Roberts of Candahar and Waterford, commander of the Britsih forces in Ireland, with many of the most prominent and brilliant men in the kingdom.Lord Rosebery\u2019s speedh for the most part was an eulogy of the guests of the evening, with many references to the im- ortance of the respective posts they have Leen called to fill.The Earl of Minto responded to a toast to his health, and referred to the great possibilities affecting Canada in view of the sympathetic kinship of the United States.Lord Curzon, who on rising received a great ovation, spoke on Indn matters.Lord Robents, in proposing the health of Lord Rosebery, said the British nation owed him a debt of gratitude for breaking his four vears\u2019 silence by a patriotic speech which had relieved and satistied the feelings of all Britons.Seme Recent Publications, The Oxford University Press (American Branch, New York,) has issued a new edition of the Revised Old and New Testaments, with revised marginal references.The type is bourgeois, and the letter-press is, therefore, very legible and attractive.The ref®®nces are copious, and assist materially in making the edition peculiarly valuable to Sunday school teachers and other students of the Bible.The divisions of the chapters according to the King James\u2019 version, are retained, but Arabic numerals are substituted for the Roman.The divisions of the verses in the older edition are also indicated.A number of colored maps render the edition still more valuable.\u201cJust a Girl,\u201d by Charles

Oct.29\u2014In the Court of Cassation yesterday the public prosecutor, M.Manu, followed M.Bard.Addressing the judge, he said: \u201cNobody can now take the Dreyfus case out of your hands.Nor can you relinquish it without dereliction of duty.Your decision must constitute for everybody the very expression of truth and justice.Revise the trial, then, gentlemen, or at least prepare the road for its revision.\u201d M.Manu then declared the court could not annul the sentence imposed upon Dreyfus without a retrial of the prisoner.He added: \u201cYou must fix the responsibility.If Dreyfus is innocent, the culprit must not go unpunished.\u201d \u2018The public prosecutor, continuing, proceeded to argue on the same lines as M.Bard, urging a revision of the trial and dwelling upon the fallibility of the writing experts.He also suggested that Major Ksterhazy should testify on the subject of the bordereau, saying: \u201cHe can admit its authorship with immunity, since a court-martial has acquitted him of being the author of it.But what a service he has rendered to the country in confessing that he is its author and what a \u201c service he will render to unhappy Dreyfus.\u201d At this stage of the proceedings M.Bard read a letter from General Gonze to the president of the Cassation, in which the General said: \u201clI have just heard of a memorandum introduced in court yesterday, in which Picquart accused me of a dishonorable action.I have never previously heard of this memorandum, and 1 wish to Ceny most formally Picquart\u2019s allegations.\u201d 1 think my word is of greater value than that of a man imprisoned on the suspicion of forgery.\u201d The reading of the last statement called forth loud protests in court.; \"The reporter added that as Colonel Pic- quart\u2019s memorahdum was publicly read, it was only justice to read General Gonze\u2019s denial.I'he president of the court ordered that the general\u2019s letter be added to the documents in the case, and the court adjourned.The court was less crowded than on the previous day, but the same stringent precautions were taken.There was no excitement outside the Palace of Justice.Only a few people

\u201clt is mot beside the question to declare that it would be no practical use to de \u2018mounce violators of the license law, if à secret and powerful hund takes from those who are charged with having the law respected, the possibility of doing so, or reduces to nothing the effects of a condemnation, by an injunction not to execute it.\u2019 Seized liquors should be amalyzed, in order to defeat a plea that they were non- eleoholic when seized.Alter discussing the social evil, the Re corder expresses himself in favor, to avoid a greater evil, of tolerating a certain num: ber of houses, \u201cwhere order reigns amid disorder.\u201d This view, he says, is approved by St.Thomas, St.Alphonsus of Lignori and St.Augustin.His Homor expresses difference of opm- ion with Judge Wurtele as to the interpretation of the law regarding certain women, \u2018but suggests that the law be changed so as to remove all ambiguity.Having dealt at great length with the problem of regulating disorderly houses, without, by so doing, giving any indication of looking upon their existence with favor or approval, His Honor turns to the evils of poverty.He cites the forgiveness of the repentant thief on tlhe cross, and argues therefrom that Government and charitable institutions not being sufficient to stamp out poverty, mendicity should be rnt- ted; but, as the law requires with the authorization of a priest, a minister, or two justices of the peace.He pays a tn- bute to the St.Vincent de Paul Society, the Grey Nums, the Seminary of St, Sul- pice, and other charitable institutions and orgamizations.He thinks they are entitled to aid from the public funds.He complains that people often come before him and ask to be sent to gaol or they wil starve, He has to grant their request, for he knows they will otherwise commit some offence to merit imprisonment, Has Honor concludes a lengthy report = expressing himself in favor of a municipal prison for the detention of ithose convicted of slight offences, such as drunkenness, so that they might be preserved from the -contamination of contact with more hardened offenders.Burns Won the Dinner, There is a story told of Robert Burns in \u2018his youth.Burns was living in the town of Ayr, and though still young had attained more than a local reputation as a poet.One day he was passing through the main street of the town, and saw two strangers sitting at one of the inn windows.With idle curiosity he stopped to look at them.Seeing him, and thinking that the rustic might afford them some amusement while waiting, the strangers called him in and asked nim to dine with them.Burns readily accepted the invitation, and proved a merry, entertaining guest.When dinner was nearly finis%ed, the strangers suggested that each should try his hand at verse-making, and that the one who failed to make a ryhme should pay for the dinner.They felt secure in the challenge, believing that their rustic guest would have to pay for the meal.The ryhmes were written, and Burns read the following: \u201cI, Johnny Peep, saw two sheep; two sheep saw me.Half a crown apiece will pay for their fleece, and I, Johnny Peep, go free.\u201d The strangers\u2019 astonishment was great, and they both exclaimed: \u201cWho are you?You must be Robbie Burns!\u201d The Clergy in England.There is not a trace in this country of the angry scorn with which on the continent tne clergy are so often regarded because of their claims to special reverence end a separate authority.Englishmen \u201care vot minding,\u201d as the Scotch say, what the clergy think of themselves.\u2018They hod in their hearts that all good functions gre of divine appointment, and should be performed irom a sense of duty which it is always divine, and uf the clergy perform theirs with a special feeling of mission they rather respect them the more.A good clergyman who thinks himself a priest in the highest Roman sense will often be a better clergyman than one who does aot, the capacity increasing responsibility at \u2018least as much as arrogance, and with that goodness the Englishman às content.His desire is for fine comduct, personal and professional, and if the fine conduct is visible, as in our day and country it usually is, he does not care much from what impulse ït pnoceeds.\u2018The only real danger is lest the clergy on some unhappy day should translate their latent oninion into action, and refuse to exercise their functions, except according to their own judgment of their duties\u2014should for example, introduce \u201cdiscipline,\u201d re ing erring individuals in church by name, or refusing \u2018the sacrament to amy on the ground of their opinions, or object ing to real services for \u2018the dead if the dead have been in life anti-ecclesiasticai.Then, indeed, there would be \u201cwar,\u201d furi: ons war for a few days; but the lay Eng- 1 has no fear of such a contingency | poverty.\u2018and various securities to arising.In the first place, he knows the clergyman to be an luuglishman, wo, and certusn 40 act in the non-extremist, reasonable, English way.ln the second place.a8 he holds no act done to him ab extra to be material to the wehiare of \u2018his eoul, he has always the resources of staying away, and regarding the church as for hun contained under his own hat.And in the third place, he is fuly aware that he is un Lhe last mesont absolute master, through the Parliament which he appoints, of tae aitu- aetion.\u2014Londom Spectator.Wealthy Beggars, When Tori, a well-known Italian professional beggar, died last year, there were found hidden away in his rooms bank books, securities, gold and silver amounting collectively to the value of upward of 2,000,000 francs or $400,000.Has heirs were two nephews, who for years had been existing in a state of pitiable In 1895 a beggar who died in Auxerre, France, was tound to have 1,- 000,000 france in bonds in a trunk, and in his cellar 400 bottles of wine of the vintage of 1790.In the same year an o.d beggar woman named Marie Dufour, who occupied a wretched garret at a house in the Rue de Sevres, Paris, was found dead in her bed.In a bundle belonging to her were found a deposit receipt for $6,- 000 in the name of the deceased and Government securities representing an annual income of $106.Gustave Marcelin, a professional beggar, was found dead in his room in Rue Puy Guillaume, Avignon, mn November, 1892.A search led to the discovery of French Government bonds the value of $100,000.He leit a paper requesting that his savings might be divided equully between the city and the Bureau de Bienfaisance.The wealthiest living profes sional beggar, Simon Oppasich, was in 1890 sentenced to seven years\u2019 hard labor for perjury.He was born without feet or arms, and his physical defects brought him exceptional sympathy and cash.In 1880, at the age of 47, he had saved $60,000, and in 1888 he had by speculation increasee his fortune to $125,000 in cash and some tate.Since then he has quadrupled his wealth by trading on the bourse.Sarah Grand on Matrimony.A young man (says Sarah Grand) has an idea that he will marry some day, and on a certain occasion he finds himself dancing with a girl, or sitting next one at dinner.There are music and flowers and lights and champagne, talk and laughter.He is in the right mood for the moment, his heart beats high; nothing is wanting but love to complete his satisfaction.He looks at his companion.She is young, too, her eyes are bright, her cheeks are flushed, her smiles are frequent; he sees no flaw in her, he teils himself he loves her;

Journal, when some boys who had been to the- river bathing were returning home along the road which leads by Col.I.H.Dungan\u2019s farm they found a bee tree about twenty feet from the roadside.Their first act was to procure an axe and the necessnry fixtures for capturing the honey.When all arrangements were completed, they proceeded to cut down the tree.Many were the licks it took to fell the oak, as it was perhaps about four or five feet in diameter, and the number of grains running through the wood numbered about 80, which proved this one to be about 80 years old.After the tree had fallen they quickly lizhted some rags, and after the bees had been smoked out each boy made a rush to obtain his share of the honey.They soon filled a 20-gallon stand and two or three buckets, and as the last comb of honey was being taken down they saw some shining object still further down in the tree.They set to work with their axe, and soon a block was chipped off large enough to see the object better, and it Was found to be a pot of gold, the value of which was $2.000.Whose it was and how At came to he there no one can tell, but it is supposed to have been put there during the war in 1865.Col.Dungnn is wild with excitement, and declares the place now worth $500,000.) marrer The Late Sir George Grey.The following startling story of the late Sir George Grey and his wife is being told by the English press.Not many years after their marriage, the late Sir George Grey, when going out to the Cape as its Governor-Designate, accompanied by his wife \u2018was walking alone on the deck of the ship.Seeing a letter on the deck, he picked it up, and found it to be a note written to Lady Grey by the captain of the ship\u2014a still living and immensely popular naval officer, now of high rank.Sir George\u2019s anger apparently got fhe better of his reason, for, affer a violent scene with the captain, and presumabl] without giving his wife a chance to speak for herself, he insisted on putting into port and sending Lady Grey on shore.rom that moment he separated himself from her, and never saw her again for thirty-three years.At the end of this period, by some means unknown, an eclair- cissement was arrived at, and it was proved that Lady Grey knew nothing at all of the letter, and was not even aware of the captain\u2019s feeling for her.The aged couple were at last re-united, and spent about three years together before the death of Lady Grey, which took place only a few days before that of her husband.A Veteran's Voice.By H.Jelly, late R.N, I stood by Nelson\u2019s monument, Upon Jacques Cartier Square, And noticed that the Shaft and base, Both, needed some repair.In fact the shaft looked like the mast Of some abandoned wreck; Yet on it stood the braves man That ever trod a deck.For honor\u2019s sake, let\u2019s fix it up, Or take it clean away; It mocks the fame of him who fell Upon Trafalgar Bay.- \u2014- _ | Let\u2019s get a shaft of polished sfone, ¥ - Of permanence and beauty; 7 Nelson \u2018\u2018expects that\u201d Montreal } \u2018\u2018\u2019l'his day will do her duty.\u201d !

the Head Line steamship Bengore Head, when his duties allow him the spare time often describes in verse any incidents in his everyday life which are out of the ordinary.A peep into the captain\u2019s cabin shows the is somewhat of a literary turn of mind.His well-filled bookshelves contain a library of which any literary man might be proud; such as the works of Darwin, Ruskin, Scott, Dickens, Tennyson, Moore, Shakespeare, Chaucer, and a number of modern poets and novelists, besides works in the original Irish language, of which Captain Brennan is an ardent student.And with all his taste for literature Captain Brennan does not neglect his day duties, for he is regarded as one of the best seamen in the liead Line, and a thoroughly reliable ship-master., Captain Brennan is a native of Ulster i and is well-versed in the folk-lore of that part of Ireland.The following verses by the poet-captain give the origin of the Red Hand of O\u2019Neill, which has been the emblem of Ulster for many a long year.This is the design on the flag of the Head Line, or Ulster Steamship Company to give it its proper name, and can be seen tlying from some of the ships in port throughout the shipping season.It is under this flag that Sir Thomas Lipton will sail next season in his endeavor to capture the America Cup for the Royal Ulster Yacht Club.The ground of the flag is of blue and on it is a white shield with a red left hand, having three drops of blood below it.Here is the origin of the design: THE RED HAND OF O'NEILL.\"Twas many hundred years ago, In Ulster there did reign A gallant king and powerful.The sons he had were twain.These sons were brave and daring, And oft they sallied forth To battle with their enemies, The clansmen of the North.And oft on foray they were bent, And oft they crossed the main, And pillaged far the Scotish coast, Ere they returned again.When absent on such wild foray O\u2019er Scottish Lowlands led, The king, their father, died, and quick The fateful tidings spread.And soon the royal princes hear e news so full of woe To all who loved the gallant king, Whose head was now laid low.Then for the space of three long days.The brothers mourned their dead; Then ordered that their camp be struck, And homeward fast they sped.Now all who know the Brehon law, At once will understand, The eldest son need not succeed Unto his father\u2019s land.But, rather he who fittest is, Whose might hath oft been shown, Who with strong hand can hold the rights His people deemed.their own.Ol GG + e THE RED HAND OF O'NEILL.The Poet-Captain of the

almshouse in Shoreditch Mr.W.had a brother.The brother was a bachelor, and to him went Mr.W.with the gratifying announcement that he had discovered a lady in comfortable circumstances, who was desirous of marrying a husband out of an alms- touse, and had fixed her choice upon him \u2014the second Mr.W.The brother does not seem to have stopped to inquire what had prompted this dasire on the lady\u2019s part.It may be that he took it as a matter of course that any lady who had the chance would wish to marry him, or it may be that so long as he got out of the alms- housé he did not care a rap what the lady\u2019s motives were.Anyhow, he gave a blushing, but apparently not reluctant, consent.The happy day was fixed.The bride, m emerged from his almshouse, and the couple were duly married on April 30, at [ford Parish Church.Mr.W., who had negotiated the match was present, presumably in the character of best man.The marriage over, however, the best man, to the consternation of the bridegroom, announced his intention of walking off with the bride.What was worse, the bride intimated her perfect approval of this proposal.The bride and the best man drove off to spend the honeymoon at Folkestone, and the bridegroom was left disconsolate at the Murch door with apparently no option but to return to his almshouse, which he accordingly did.In this way Mrs.C.became Mrs.W.,

years runming in a great many parts of the so-called \u201cgranary of Eur ope,\u201d the originally fertile, but now exhausted, soil of the Volga basin, is giv ing both the central and the local

mniinistries, has decided to assist the poorest peasants by advancing 324 pounds of rye flour and 360 pounds of hay per head during the winter.A sum of 10,000 rubles is aiso to be advanced in each district where it may be necessary for the purchase of horses and cattle.Each peasant accepting these advances must assume the responsibility of repayment, but this is not likely to prevent any of them from borrowing.Orders have been sent to the provincial governors to organize the victualling arrangements of their districts without delay, and epecial officials have be#n sent into the |

head of the Congo Free State, will take the initiative ms before.He has aske\u201d the Powers interested to {ry again, ana Great Britain, France and Germany have accepted his invitation.He will

often been urged that the import should be forbidden altogether, and everybody admits it to be an unqualified curse.The trouble is that West African trade would be paralyzed | temporarily by such a course.There are prohibiton if they could pereceive any out theaid of spirituous liquor.For the present, at any rate, the \u201cbush negro\u201d will not work for any other inducement.It is feared,

1s 1n a very unsatisfactory condition.Thus, while the tonnage of British merchant ships increased 53 per cent.during the decade 1886-96, and that of Germany 107 per cent., that of France actually di- æinished.Even nations such as Spain ! and Italy have shown greater activity in this matter than France.The former, during the decade referred to, increased her merchant tonnage 30 per cent, and the latter by 68 per cent.The French fia, according to Le Yacht, has almost disappeared from the far East and from the Pacific, and this in spite of heavy bounties granted by the government.Several causes are alleged for this stagnation.ong others, it is asserted that the treaties with England By which equality of treatment is secured to ships using har- tors or docks belonging to either state act prejudicially to French interests.Thus, in France, all docks and harbors are owned and operated by the state, whereas this is the exception in England, where private ownership is more usual.The private docks, according to Le Yacht, are aot bound by the treaties, and can and ficulty wWhich French shipowners experi- erce 18, it appears, to get outward ts, and it is asserted that, being unequally treated at private-owned docks in England, the French ships are unable ese from English ports.The principal difficulty, however, is the excessive cost of cargo boats built in French yards.The price is from 35 to 20 per cent.more than for similar boats built in England.To secure the Government bouney ships must be built En France, and the increased expenditure thus necessitated more than offsets the advantage conferred by the subsidies.Russia and the Emperor.The Russian press regards the ilgrimage of the German Emperor to the Holy Land with great dislike and suspicion.The St.Petersburg Novosti the other day had an apparently inspired article declaring that Germany\u2019s affection for Turkey had been the chief cause of the dissolution of the European concert and of all the failures of the Powers in the East.Both in the Ar- Germany, it says, has all along played a selfish part, having artificially encouraged the Porte and thus supported the chaos 1n Eastern affairs.German policy weighed heavily on little Greece both before and after the war with Turkey.It goes on to say that if the Turks are preparing to give the Emperor William a splendid welcome, Germany has certainly deserved it.As to France and Russia, their attitude towards the plans attributed to Germany must be regulated by the exclusive privileges which they each claim in Palestine in relation to their respective protectorates over Catholic and orthodox Christians.In spite of the repudiation of any special olitical or commercial aims, the Novosti Ends that the reference of the

Montreal on the 11th of November at Schmer Park, and will be given on the occasion of the first official visit of the Supreme Chief of the Order, Dr.Oron- byatekha, who has promised to come along with his colleagues of the Supreme Executive and hold a sitting together with the High Standing Committee of the Province of Quebec on that day or the next.The Royal Foresters of Toronto will accompany the Supreme Chief upon his visit, and will act as an escort, together with the Montreal encampment, in the parade, and march through the streets of Montreal.It has been decided that a collective address from all the subordinate courts of the district will be presented to the Supreme Chief at Sohmer Park, where if is expected he will make a speech in repiy.Ten thousand invitations will soon be mailed for this demonstration, which will be of a unique character, inasmuch as non- Foresters will be admitted under the tutorship of a worthy brother.The day following this grand demonstration a reception will be held in honor of Dr.Oronhy- atekha at Windsor Hall during the evening.4 The Tourist Association.Fditor of The Herald.Sir,\u2014I am pleased to see that a movement is on foot to establish a tourist association.In spite of all the guides issued there is still a need for a concise and handy book, not only for the Dominion and the, United States, but for the continent of Europe, with maps and views, at prices within the reach of all, say $1.00, 50c or 25c, according to size.There should be no advertisements, or else put in brief form, and the reading matter should be attractive.After half a century in Montreal I can confidently assert that no city es such a combination of attractions.\"the coming spring should produce a hand-book worthy of the city, and such as will ensure an enormous sale.I have on my table several guide books of my native city Edinburgh, and the east coast of Scotland, which are models of what a guide-book should be.There is no better time than the present to make one up and then tourists will flock here as to a Mecca.Yours truly, Pro Bono Publico.\u2014-\" APT, SIGSBE MO THE ME First Authentic Account of the Visit of the Battleship to Cuba and Her Reception, \u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014 THE VISITORS TO WARSHIP Were Few, and Although Courtesies Were Observed, There Was Restraint.lt PRECAUTIONS TO PROTECT MAINE {rente APTAIN Charles D.Sigebee, has contributed to the November Century the first portion of his \u201cPersonal Narrative of the Maine,\u201d which is to form a part of the Century\u2019s New War Sgries.Captain Sigs- bee says :\u2014 Admiral Sicard announced that te had received instructions from the Navy Department to send the Maine to Havana.I do not know personally the precise rea- ron which induced the United States Government to act at that particular time.My orders were to proceed to Havana end make a friendly visit.I was left to act according to my own judgment, in the usual way; that is to say, it was undoubt edly assumed that I woud Imow how to act on my arrival in Havane, and it was inteded to hold me responsible for my action.The situation seemed to call for nothing more than a strictly careful adherence to the wellknown forms of naval procedure and courtesy.It was to be expected that the Spanish people in Havana would prefer that the Maine should stay away; but with a lingering insurrection, the end of which was not in stght, wile American interests in Cuba affected adversely, and American citizens in Cuba elarmed for their safety, the United States had decided to show its flag from a public vessel in Cuban waters.It is quite certain that I gave myself no concern over the peculiarities of the aituation.My vessel was selected to go to Havana; and was gratified at the choice, just as any other commending officer would have ; I volunteered the remark to Admire] Sicard that I should try to make 10 mistakes.The Maine at Havana, In eommand of the Maine at Havana, { had but one wish, which was to be friendly to the Spanish authorities, as required by my orders.1 took pleasure in carrying out my orders in this respect.The first Spanish officer to come on board wes a naval lieutenamt, who represented tho captain of the port.His bearing waa both dignified and potite (which, by the way, is invariably the rule with Spanish naval officers), but I thought he looked embarrassed and even humil@ vd in carrying out his duty.1 greatiy regrett-d that such should be the case, and did a\u2019 that I could to make him feel at ease.After the arrival of a second Spanish lien- tenant, who seemed to take matters more philosophically, and of a German leuten- ant, the naval officer who had arrived first eppeared to lose his embarressment.4 made all the visits required of me by usage, and was everywhera received with courtesy.It is hardly to the point whath- er there was any great amount of actual friendliness for us beneath the surface.The Spanish officials on every hand gave me absclutely all the courtesy to which we were entitled by usage, and they gave it with all the grace of manner whch ja characteristic of their nation.I accepted it as genuine.It is not essential to enter here into the details of usage in connection with saiutes, It is enough to say that convention requis ed the Maine to salute the Spanish national flag and also to ealute Admirau Manterola.But such salutes are given only when it is known that they will be returned.I therefore deemed it prudent to determine this point, although the visis of a Spanidh officer to the ship would ordinarily be thought sufficiently convince.ing.In the course of conversation with the Spanish naval officer who was the first to visit the Maine, I said : \u201cI am about to give myself the honor of saluting your national flag; from which battery will the salute be returned?\u2019 He reph- ed : \u201cFrom the Cabana.\u201d With that as surance both salutes were fired and returned.The salute to the Spanish admirai was returned by his flagship, the Alfonso XII.Shortly after the arrival of the Maine, I sent my aide, Naval Cadet J.H.Holden, ashore to report to General Lee, and announce that I would soon follow.TI promptly gave orders that no officers or men of the vessel should go ashore unless by my express order.1 desired first te test the public feeling, private and official, with reference to the Maine\u2019s visit.made my visit to Admiral Manterola in full dress, with cocked hat, epaulettes, etc.I landed at the Machina, the men-of-war landing, which is virtually at the Spanish admiral\u2019s residence.There was a crowd assembled, but only of moderate size.There were no demonstrations of any kind: the crowd closed in about me slightly.Y thought the people stolid and sullen, \u2018ss far as I could ather from an occasional glance, but I took very little notice of anr- body.On my return, however, I noted carefully the bearing of the various groups of Spanish soldiers that I passed.They saluted me, as a rule, but with s0 much expression of apathy that the salute really went for nothing.They made no dem- pustration against me, however, not even look.\"The same day I made my visit to Cen- eral Lee, and arranged with him for my visit to the acting captain and governor- general, who at that time was General Parrado, Captain-General Blanco beinx uh- sent on a tour of the island.Tt is customary in the case of high officials t» make the visit at an appointed time, When I made mv visit, on January 27, accomnan- ied by General Lee, there seemed at Frat to be a probability of embarassment.Wa called at the palace of General Blanco at the appointed time, and apparently nobody at the palace knew anything about our appointment.e ever-present A mor.ican newspaper man relieved the situation; he ascertained that General Parrado was in a residence across the way, where hs was expecting us.We promptly repair-d the mistake, and were received by General Parrado with great courtesy.He had a table spread with refrashments for our benefit.All of my official visits were returned promptly.General Parrado refurn- ed my visit in person, and was given the salute of a captain and governor-general; that is to sav, the governor of a colonyv\u2014 seventeen guns, the same salute which is prescribed for the governor of one of tha United States.2 All visits were made without friction and with courtesy on both sides, and apparently with all the freedom of conver- gation and action usually observed.\u201c (Continued on Page Three.) i _J 3 e° 4.Ai a v+ 20-4-4-4-e-H THEATRES.BY PAUL PRY.o 9 te \u20ac++0-0e- 2 o v HERE has been more or less discussion this week ag to the wisdom of having such entertainments as \u201cThe irl From Paris\u201d on our lccal boards.It will be remembered that this was the attraction at the Academy last week; the managers certainly won't forget it, for when a week's business runs into $4,500 in Montreal it is very unusual, The jou si n has arisen Over One or two scenes which som: of my friends claim are suggestive, and ! one of them, signing himself \u201c Appendego,\u201d : whatever that may mean, declares: \u201cThe piece was morally vicious and in this country the whole stage lhas degenerated.I am backed up in my state: ment by the London Era, the voice of tae stage.\u201d Lear, dear! The Era the voice of the stage.Mr.\u201cAppendego,\u201d you know not whereoê ÿou epeak.You may be right about \u201cI'he Gurl from Paris,\u201d in fact, I thunk you are, but your rererence to \u2018the stage or this country\u2019 ig decidedly wrong.In locking over the field wnat do we wid in support of such a statement?Is there anythung, anywhere, that compares wilh the horrible vuigarity that pre- vaied in the dramatic writings and among ube acvors of the Shakespearean period?Everyone who is at ald cbuversant with stage history must be aware that no par: allel can be found to-day for that condituon of affairs.The progress of civilization has made such plays and such players an wn- possibility at tbe present time, and white we have no Shakespeare, the general average of our dramatic literature us higher in tone and purer in manner than it ever has been since the theatre became a modern imstutution.Those who link otherwise base their convictions upon exceptional Cases, The stars, the companies and the plays that are to-day honestly conspicuous In the public eye, furnish the best proof That this form of recreation is not degenerat ng.In Montreal this week we have four really good clean shows and they are all doing a good business.In looking over the list of attractions that are coming I notice plays and players that are not degeners® na.n Look at the big money-makers of to-day, the attractions which are being discussed by the greatest writers in the land.Mansfield is attracting crowds with \u201cCyrano,\u201d the most poetic and beautifully romantic play that has been written for years.Maude Adams is still devoted to \u201cThe Little Minister,\u201d a gem of literary and dia matic construction.Viola Allen has just scored successfully in \u201cThe Christian,\u201d another new play far above the level of most comedies written in England a century ago.John Drew is playing \u201cThe \"%§ rs,\u201d a bright and pleasing comedy by JoneS;-ard Sothern is presenting a clever comedy-rontance \u2014 \u2018The Adventure of Tady Ursula\u201d\u2014until \u201cThe Muskoteer,\u201d a sterling romamtie play, is ready for use.And so throught the entire lst, wiih Crane, Russell, Francis Wilson, the Bos- tonians and all\u2014there is everywhere the testimony of new and brilliant work to upset the assention of Mister \u201cAppendego.\u201d In New York the theatres were well- patronized on Monday night.The prn- opal eyent was the production of an Lng.Lan adaptation of Mr.Henri lLavedan's cunedy \u2018Catherine,\u2019 with Miss Annie Rus = ll in the

minimum of her fortune was > 550,000, ts maximum $600,000, and that in foaving $50,000 to her relatives she had cut them off with a comparative shilling, id that Mr.MacDowell by the will became

supposed to be well-nigh in- falinble, Mr.Coquelin should have been .regarded as an ideal interpreter of the pro- bosciferous hero.The universal opinion in London, or at all events all the t opinion, was to the effect that his performance was almost totally lacking in the ro mantic element, and exhibited very libtle of the heroic.He certainly failed to suggest his possession of any romantic or he- roïc acting power in any of his perform- arces in this country, wonderful as they were in their humorous, intellectual and artistic qualities.But then in his own t country he was accepted as a satisfactory | interpreter of the part of Mathias in \u201cThe Delis.\u201d This would seem bo indicate that | the French no longer judge a romantic actor by the standard which prevailed in the days of Frederic Lemaitre.The craze over \u201cThe Three Mus keteers\u201d as a source of dramatic fame and profit seam to have taken possesion of the whole dramatic profession in England.Scon there will

queathed Half a Million to Charity, Tn connection with the windfall of £100,000 to Glasgow charities through the death of Jas.B.Thomson in Gartnavel Lunatic Asylum recently, there is a somewhat curious story.The family history of the Thomeons, it appears, goes back to the early days of the century, when three boys, John, James and Thomas Thomson, were reared in humble circumstances in Rottenrow.In the course of time John went into business in the city, and became an underwriter and a well-known figure in the Royal Exchange.He was for many years in partnership with Mr.Wat- eon, the late City Cnamberlhin, and he controlled a very prosperous business.His most successful speculation, and the ome which laid the foundation of the fortune -\u2014 ni which now awaits distribution, was the purchase of some property at Stobcross.In the course of time, when the docks increased enormously in value, and was sold to \u2018the Clyde Trust.Thomas, another of the brothers, had meanwhile gone abroad, and established a large and successful trading T-usiness in Valparaiso, The third brother, James, who died on Sunday, remained in Glosgow, but his affairs went less successfully, and he worked most of his life about the docks, becoming eventually a stevedore in a email way of business.A number of years ago Thomas returned from Valparaiso, and, being unmarried, took up house with John, who was also a bachelor.They occapied a mansion house in the west end of the eity, and their combined fortune at this time ran to about £300,000.The two brothers made a compact then that when one of them died, half of their combined possessions, about £150,000, should go to their maternal relations, families named Brown, and that the survivar shuuld take the 1e- maining £150,000.About eight or ten years agu Thomas died, and under his will this agremeent was carried out, and three relations of the name of Brown got each £50,000.Very soon after John also died rather suddenly.and as the left no will, his money passed to his brother James as heir-atdaw, \u2018though the other brothers had not recognized him for many years.James was, like the others, well advanced in years at this time, and lived in Smith street, Kinning Park.The money was made over to him, and he took possessizp at the same time of the house which his brothers had occupied.He went there and lived for about in week, at the end of which he left, saying it wae far too expensive for him, and returned to his room and kitchen at 27 Smith street.He had always been a little peculiar in his ways, and as the years went on his peculiarity became more marked.He shunned all society, and lived a solitary life, attended only by an elderly woman named Mra.Stuart, who kept the house for him.\u2019 About two years ago hig housekeeper fell ill, and was compelled to leave him, He refused to allow anyone else to -wait on him, shut himself up in his house, and lived in the meanest possible way.le cooked his own food, living principally on that £100,000 is set aside came to be formed there, this ground | i \u2019 porridge, Some of the neighbors remonstrated with him that a man possessed of money should live in that fashion, but he justified himself by arguing that it was \u201cvery economical.\u201d A neighbor woman got in occasionally and attempted to keep the house in fairly decent order, but he became more and wvre wusp.cious, barricaded his door, and refused to allow anyone to enter.All last winter he lived shut up in his house without a spark of fire more thau was necessary to cook his porridge.His sole recreation was to go to the Mitchell Library, to which he waik- ed every day with the idea of saving car fares, and where he mat regularly every day.His affairs were meantime in the hands of a finm of Glasgow solicitors, but he drew from them only a few shillings a week, and refused to allow them to make any other arrangements for him.Last spring he had become 0 queer in his behavior, and his house had become so offensive from long negicet, that the neighbors called the attention ot the authoi- ties to the case.A sanitary inspector visited the place, and found the house in a very filthy condiiton.\u2018I'hey had it claan- ed oui, and as Thomson them seemed incapable of taking care of himself an at- tupuv \u2018Was made to get him into some institution in the city.The Old Man's

I | were carriage people.Wasn't it clever, and isnft there a deal of truth in it?Because Mrs.Top o\u2019 the Tree, who never bobs up and down street car steps, and never goes over dirty cross ings, wears a really truly fashionable gown, isn\u2019t little Mrs.Trot-on-her-Tooties very fodlish to imitate the gown when she can\u2019t imitate the carriage?\u201cBut a long gown is so pretty,\u201d women wail over and over again.Of course it is, and it\u2019s dignified and all the rest of it, indoors.But, tell me truly, is there anything more help- less-looking, mwre inartistic and more senseless, than a fashionable skirt when it requires two hands to hold it?In the neme of deanliness, let us wear short skirts when we go out to walk, and re- \u2018serve our trains and boot-scraping

play, \u201cCyrano de Bergerac,\u201d everyone is asking who were \u2018les precieusea?\u201d The term was used in France\u2014made by a man who delighted to hold the frailties of the fair sex up to ridicule, yet thé women who made up this set should have been commended for their virtue and their nonsensical actions passed by.The reign of les precieuses marke an extraordinary epoch in the manners of a nation conceded to have the lead in polite orms.The coarsest, most profligate women of France in the seventeenth century were its three queens\u2014Catherine de Medici, Marie de Medici, and, most dissolute of all, Marguerite de Valois.It was impossible that the example of these three women should not lower the moral tone of France.The origin of les precieuses was in an effort made by the young wife of the Marquis de Rambouil- Jet\u2014a charming and pure-minded creature \u2014ito establish a school of correct man- mers.The Marquise de Rambouillet, with the , most exalted intentions of forming a cuit of simplicity and virtue, succeeded in producing a set of seventeenth century neurasthenics beside whose hyeterical affec- \" totions amd ridiculous jargon the Four Hundred, with their \u201cvegetable reunions, \u2019 \u201cscrubbing woman\u2019s ls\u201d and \u201cstudio teas,\u201d appear conservative.The precieuses had rules and regulations set down for them in a presoribed form.They had their \u201cArt of Love,\u201d their | \u201cCode of Manners,\u201d and their \u201cBook ot Usage in Matters of Sentiment.\u201d | Their high priestess was Mlle.de Scu- dery, who appears not only to have managed the etiquettes and sentiment de- ts, but also to have furnished the coterie at frequent intervals with ten- , volume novels, which, for incident, genti- | ment and fervor, would put Laura Jean Libbey to the blush.Picture, if you can, a body of men and women sublimated ae to speech, exquisite | to the last affectation in manners, dress- | ed, without regard to eex, to

Tenderness\u201d for constant reference ! According to this love chart, there are, in the Country of Tenderness, three riv- ersg\u2014Inclination, Esteem, Gratitude.If one wishes to ga from the Town of New Friendship to the City of Tenderness, near the River of Edteem, he has to traverse the villages of Great Wit, Charming Verse, Love ters, Sincerity, Noble Heart and others with equally sentimental names.But if the traveller strays to the Village of Negligence, he will fall into the i Lake of Indifference, or wander through the villages of Indiseretion, Perfidy, Pride, Slander and Wickedniess to & watery death in the Sea of Enmity.The precicuses disappeared from view as the mesult of the satire with which they were inundated.Practically, they came again to the eur face during the French Directory; they are to be recognized in the Incroyables of that period, and later still, in the aesthetic wave which ewept over the universe a score of years ago, we suffered a certain sickly resemblance to the wom.n whom Miss Ada Rehan has been so delightfully portraying.An Autumn Petticoat, It is possible to obtain an excellent effect and more durability from a petticoat composed particularly of silk and partly

flower-seiler applied for out relief on behalf of her mother, an old lady of nearly seventy years of age, her precarious calling.When asked why the aged lady would not come into the house, the applicant replied that her mother would not give up her \u2018\u2018baccy.\u201d Further enquiry elicited the interesting statement that she had been addicted to \u20ac use of the weed for over forty years.AN IMPORTANT DBECISION.\u2014AY Paddington, London, recently, the revising barrister delivered an important judgment upon the objection raised by the Liberals .to sixty-seven Anglican \u2018\u201c\u2018Sistere\u2019\u2019 belonging to the Kilburn Sisterhood being re- .tained on the municipal and parochiel { electors\u2019 list.The barrister upheld the objections, pointing out the vows of obedience and poverty which the ladies took on entering the institution were entirely inconsistent with any possibility of their occupying as owners or tenants.Their , ames much, therefore, be struck off.« THE ORDER OF THE THISTLE, \u2014 The Marquis of Tweeddale has been made ;& Knight of the Order of the Thistle in place of the late Earl of Mansfield, Who at the time of hm death was the \u2018oidest holder of the order.Barring royalties, the other Knights are, of course, all Scotch wen.The foundation of the order is very ancient; but it was revived by James LI.in 1687, and again by Anne in 1703.The badge is a collar composed of sixteen gold thistles iateriaced with golden sprigs of rue, and a small golden image of St.Am- drew in a gold badge attached to the collar.The motto is: \u201cNemo me,\u201d etc.The \u201crue\u201d is said to be a pun\u2014Thistles And: rew (rue).THREE MEN TO ONE TOOTH.\u2014A peculiar dental case occurred in the West minster (London) County Court recently.Mr.Richardeon, an American dentist, sued a Mr.Freeman for £13, balance on account for stopping five teeth of Miss Freeman.Plaintiff said payment was arranged at the rate of one guinea for each half-hour, and the operation took twenty- eight half-hours.Fourteen haif-hours had been apent over one tooth.He had three men working together on the tooth, and for such an operation he never charged less than twenty guineas.His Honor said be had heard of two men to one spade, but never three men to one tooth.The defendant having already paid £15, he gave judgment in his favor with costa.THEY KEPT THEIR WORD.\u2014A story which tends vo show Major Wyndhanis popularity with the 2lst Lancers, is now being told.Before going nto action at Omdurman all the subs wrote and signed a letter to Mrs.WydnLain saymg vhat they did not intend to come buck without her husband.and meant to look after {him.How well they kept their word is now matter of history, for when Major Wyndham\u2019s horse was shot under him, and he himself was wounded, the signatories of the letter and some of his men stood round in a ring and prevented pis being tramp upon, as so many othe brave soldiers had been.This gave him time to mount the home of another who was killed, and so he lived to fight through that desperate charge.LIFES DOWNWARD GRADE.\u2014The vicissitudes of life were illustrated at an inquest held recently in the London Hoe- .pital, on the body of a dock laborer, La- cien Francois Seret, aged fifty-seven.The widow deposed that the deceased was at one time a captain on a Cunard liner, but, having been shipwrecked several times, and met other misfortunes, he became a dock laborer five years ago.A reporter asked one of the dock officials who was present whether it was unusual for a ship\u2019s captain to descend to dock laboring, and the official replied, *\u2018Oh, no, we have many former captains working as laborers in the dock.We have also doctors, clergymen and lawyers acting as laborers.They all fall back upon us when they come down in the world.\u201d THE QUEEN'S NEW YACHT.\u2014It is now definitely decided that the Queens new Royal yacht which is now building at Pembroke shall be launched before the middle of next May.The ceremony of christening the vessel will be performed by a member of the royal family, and in the event of nothing happening to interfere it is intimated that the Prince of Wales will be present.All the cabin fittings, upholstery and decorations are to be completed at Pembroke by the dockyard and contractors\u2019 workmen.Directly she is launched she will be dotked for sheathing, when her engines will be hoisted in, and every incidental with regard to the vessel's hull be thoroughly carried out., PENSION LIST INCIDENT.\u2014A curious incident in connection with the pension list is disclosed in the finance accounts for the past year.The late Sir Henry Havelock-Allan, M.P., was in receipt of the pension of £1,000 a year, granted for two lives by Parliament, in consideration of the distinguished services of his father, General Havelock, in the suppression of the Mutiny.Before leaving on his se'd- imposed and fatal mission to India last autumn Sir Henry had, it appears, been paid a full year\u2019s pension for the financial year ending March 31, 1898.His tragic death occurred on December 30, 1897, when, of course, his annuity ceased to be payable, and it is notified, therefore, that the amount over-issued from the Exchequer will be repaid\u2014presumably by Sir Henry\u2019s executors.NO WONDER HE WAS FINED.\u2014 Southwark Police Court revaatiy, ne ed of a trading firm at Bermoudsey, upon whose premised a quantity of livers were recently seized, was summoned a: the instance of the Vestry.The prosecution al leged that the livers had been decomposed for weeks, that some were diseased, aud that they yielded slime and an offensive odor.The defendant\u2019s counsel stated that the livers were those of \u2018Irish pigs, that they had been exported to Germany to be mace mto sausages, and that, the supuiy being in excess of the German demand, they had been sent to England.The magistrate said the offence of making meat extract from such \u201cabsolute filth\u201d required the severest possible punishment.He imposed the maximum penalty of £50, with £50 costs.ONCE A NOTABLE FIGURE.\u2014 William Fraser, whose death took place at Ipswich the other day, was a notable figure in the moving times at the begin ning of the reign.With Cobden and kithu Burritt, the learned blacksmith, he was one of the famous British and American deputation \u2018to Luvopean cities on the subjeot of universal peace.He was the eastern wounties organizer of the Corn Law Kepeal Committee, and it was from his house that most of the work in Norfolk and Suffoik, during that stirring period, was directed.He was a zealous worker ancng the Chartists, to the no slight indignation of his own class.late years he had lived in quiet retirement, and has mow passed away at the ripe age of eighty-four.THE SIRDAR\u2019S TITLE.\u2014The sele~tion by Bir Herbert Kitchener of the title of Lord Khartoum is quite in accordance with precedent.It was believed_thiat his title would be Lord Kitchener ot Inhar- toum, following the analogy of Lord Wol- seley of Cairo, Lord Napier of Magdala, and Lord Roberts of Kandahar.Titles have, however, been taken from the places of signal victories very frequently.Thus Jervis became Lord St.Vincent; Duncan, Lord Camperdown; and it is mot, perhaps, generally known that Captain Jomah Nis- who was getting too shaky to continue\u2019 I'bet, RN, Lord Nelson's stepeon, w ! bet, R.N, son\u2019s s who saved his life, was offered the Ean dom of Trafalgar.Considerable latitude has always been permitted vo pereons elevated to the peerage in the selectuwon of titles.In some instances, however, the titles sought for have been refused.Within the present gemeration it was intimated to the pecrage the title of Lord Oxford that he must make another selection.MURDERERS AND POISON.\u2014In the course of an address at the Liverpool Pharmaceutical Society, Sir J.Crichton Browne referred to the use of poison by murderers and suicides, and said that, notw.thstandirg the discovery of new poison, which, when taken into the body, could defy detection, even under a most minute post-mortem examination, homicides still clung to the old-fashioned and clumsy methods of human destruction.Even medical men, when they developed murderous instincts, did not make use of the new and powerful organte poisons, Lut contented themselves with employing Inorganic drugs, which were easy of detection, and were scheduled in the pharmacopoeia.A connoisseur of poisons could, by keeping his own utuwcrobwes.slaughter hundreds of innocent people without the sl ghtest fear of his crime coming to light.For a long time to come he thought wiurderers would continue to stake their necks on such old methods as arsenic and strychnine poisoning, and that was a remarkable lucky thing for society.THE RAILWAY SERVANTS.\u2014The Railway Servants\u2019 Congress, sitting at Leeds, recently, altered its rules, so that a ballot of the men should be taken before the executive committee could order a cessation of work or the issuing of notices.The congress discussed the continued prevalence of excessive hours of labor, and called upon branches to brin such cases before the notice of the Board of Trade.It was resolved that, experience having demonstrated the futility of endeavoring to obtain reasonable hours by voluntary effort, the executive committee should use every means in its power to effect the passing of an eight-hours bill for railway men.À resolution was alsa passed protesting against railway and dock companies making it a condition of employing men that the latter should subscribe to sick and superannuation pension funds.Another resolution called for the appointment of a select committee ot Parliament to investigate alleged cases of vietimizing of unionists by railway officials.The congress also reaffirmed a resolution of the London meeting that the time has now arrived when the Amalgamated Society of Railway Servants should be directly represented in Parliament by the general secretary, who should be independent of either political party.A BRAVE SCOTTISH SOLDIER.\u2014 Corporal James MacLaren, who died recently at Stirling, enlisted in the 42nd Royal Highlanders in 1853.He embarked with his regiment for the Crimea and took part in the battles of Alma, Kertch, Balaclava, siege and fall of Sebastopol\u2014 medal with thmed dlaspd and Turkish medal.He served with the colors in India during the mutiny, and was present at the engagements at Cawnpore, Bar- eilly, siege and capture of Lucknow, and other places\u2014medd! with clasp.The deceased was one of a party, under Captain Lawson, who were attacked by a rebel force at Maylah Ghaut on Jan.15, 1859.Soon after the engagement began Captain Lawson was mortally wounded, the other officers and non-commissioned officers were w'ounded, and MacLaren and other soldiers directed their comrades, whereby 2,000 of the enemy were held in check fer fourteen hours.Sir Hugh Rose, the commander-in-chief, called the men to the front of the battalion and thanked them.After the campaign was over Corporal Maclaren volunteered to serve with the 43rd Regiment in the New Zealand war against the Maories and had some bush tighting\u2014inedal with clasp.The war over, he rejoined his old corps, the 42nd, and sailed for the Gold Coast, in 1873, and was present at the battles Coomassie\u2014medal with clasp.Deceased was never once wounded.the

while I was sure I heard him whisper \u201cSe- chrudi !\u201d\u2014the native term for revenge.One evening father said : \u2018\u201cTo-morrow! 1 am going with the natives upon an elephant hunt; and I hope to return by nightfall with a pair of tusks to show for my day\u2019s sport.The drought has driven the big fellows down for water; and, by tomorrow, they will be within a day\u2019s hunt.We can start early and return: by dusk.\u201d \u201cGeorge, 1 am going to leave your mother and little sister m your care.We shall all be obliged to proceed on foot in the hunt, on account of the tsetze fly, which is very abundant in this region and fatal to horses.I ghall ride in a howdah part of the way, but the others must run afoot.You must remain at the settlement, and, in the afternoom, you and sister may ride to the end of the bridal trail upom your ponies.\u201d It was with sinking hearts that we saw father ride away next morning.His howdah, borne by four swift-footed natives, never looked as attractive to us; while the score of spearsmen and beaters that surrounded it, told of a day\u2019s sport.We were turning sadly away from the sight of the receding caravan, when we heard a slight hissing sound\u2014the usual way the natives have of attracting attention.It was Appo! Flat upon dis stomach he lay, with his head sticking up out of the brush at the side of the house.fe beckoned to ws with a long, bony nger.\u201cWould the little Sabib and his sister like to go hunting the elephant ?\u201d he whispered.\u201cOh, Appo !\u201d I exclaimed, forgetting my distrust of him, \u201cwill you take us ?\u201d\u2019 We did a great deal of whispering that morning; and I am sure if mother had heard what we were planning she would have worked less tranquilly upon her bit of meedlework.After a hurried luncheon, we mounted our ponies, end, telling mother we would soon be home, we started down the bridal path.George spoke first.\u201cAppo told me,\u201d said he, \u201cthat we could easily overtake father by cutting across the country along the left-hand trail, which leads\u201d inte the woods.\u201d \u201cBy this time, we had galloped to the end of the path; and George, standing upon his pony, too® a long look to the left, down the trail., \u201cNee! See!\u201d he exclaimed, pointing to a small, dark object toward the horizon.\u201cThere they are! I can see them moving.We can overtake them.\u201d {Vill father be angry ?\u2019 I asked./ ¢(ertainly not ! Ifis only objection was A account of the tsetze fly.But, by faking this inland cross-trail, Appo says, we shall avoid them.\u201d \">=, as we were, we had no idea glantly frangance one can eee in tropical latitudes.> Next minute\u2014banishing our last misgiv- ing\u2014we had turned our ponies to the left, and were galloping down the trail.\u201cMother will hardly have time to miss us,\u201d said George, \u201cbefore we are home.\u201d \u201cHelping father carry the tusks,\u201d I suggested.Scon the trail became narrow.And\u2014what we did not like at all\u2014there were oreat thorn bushes growing on each side of it, so that we could with difficulty avoid them; and even the ponies stepped carefully.My pony soon grew so uneasy that 1 had to dismount him to pat him on the nose and gather long grasses for him; while George had all he could do to soothe his own beast.Once George said: \u201cDo you think, Wessie, that we could have mistaken the trail ?No! Appo said it was the one at the left.\u201d | Before I could answer my pony gave a snort and jumped into the air, while (George shouted : \u201cLook out, Wessie! It is the tsetze flies.The tsetze flies! They are coming in a ewarm.Hurry! Ride for your life !\u201d He spoke none too soon, for the swarm settled down around us and all our spurring and fighting with whip and lines could not keep them off.\u201cIt is surely the tsetze,\u201d I panted, as we flew into the open space,\u201d which for us meant temporary safety.\u201cYes,\u201d said George, pale to the lips, \u201cand Zamoluga said that though no bigger than a horse fly, their bite woud kill the strongest desert pony.Bub come! We cannot, stay here.The tsetzes will soon overtake us.\u201d ; \u2018The terrible buzzing began again, end and in another minute, we were spurring onward.\u201cFather cannot be far off,\u201d said George, reassuringly.\u201cThe caravan looked only ten miles away.\u201d Through the long stretch of woods we flew, as if on wings.Suddenly I saw George pause\u2014and stop.\u201cThe trail!\u201d he cried.\u201cWe have lost the trail! Look! we are in a hopo!\u201d ] ; Sure enough, we were in a great tri angle, around which there lay a deep ditch into which the natives had, at some time ast, driven all the wild animals to be Ped.Anyhoy it was, we knew, the tnme of wild beasts.\u201cWhat shall we do?\u201d I cried.\u201cWhy did we trust Appo?\u201d \u2018 .\u201cLook out!\u201d shouted George.\u201cThere is a big tsetze!\u201d 7 But his warning came too late.The deadly thing alighted upon my pony\u2019s nose.The ferrified little animal sprang into the air, before I knew it, I was tossed into the brush; ten feet away from me lay George, while our ponies rolled upon the round in agony.F \u201cAre you hott Wessie?\u201d ghouted George, on his feet in a minute, and running to my assistance.\u201cOh, little sister!\u201d \u201cOk, George! George!\u201d I could say no more with pain, for, pinning me down s~curely and holding me fast, were great tharns.We were plucky children.But, efter an hour's work, we had to give up.The thorns were at least two inches long; and each movement of the bushes tore ny flesh nt least so cruelly that I begged George to ston.\u201cWessie,\u201d said George, solemnly, after we had stared at each other a few min.vtes; I, from my fortress of thorns, ond George outside, \u201cWould you be afraid to ctay here alone.Kafire can still travel.And T will go back, and look for father; or get somebody from thesettlement.\u201d As George rode away, he looked back at me again and again; and once he rode back to put into mv hands his little sling.shot\u2014one which Zamoluga had fashioned for us to bring down wild birds, and with which we very adent.\u2018Yon may want it,\u201d he said, but neither spoke the awful Thought that was in both our minds.* * * * * | » How long I lay in the thorn| brush I never knew.I saw my faithful lijtle horse kick out his death struggle; h ard the distant roarings of the wild fis tore | \u2018strarght at them.And such a din!

I broke off some of the biggest thorns and, loading my slingshot with them, prepared to fight.If I could wound a cub I knew the lioness would turn from me to her baby.Suddenly those eyes were turned upon me again; and I could see the lioness hold- üng her head high and sniffing the air.I waited no longer.Taking aim I let fly one of the thorns, backed by a big stone.A howl of pain greeted it.And again I let fly, this time into the eye of the Hon- ess herself, while her yelping oubs rolled over at her side.As fast as I could break thorns and reload I sent the sharp things The forest for miles around rang with their yelps.» » » * .From a day\u2019s triumphant elephant spearing came father.By the side of the howdah walked six men carrying the sawed-up tusks; while in the rear were six more bearing upon a litter the great heart o1 the elephant\u2014a native delicacy, always carefully brought home from the chase.Looking out of the howdah window father saw a speck across the desert stretch.\u2018Zamoluga,\u201d he asked, \u201c what is that?\u201d .And the , guide, looking, replied: It is\u2014why it is\u2014the sahib\u2019s boy\u2014and the pony is wounded\u2014see he falls\u2014and the boy nes still.\u201d Quicker than the swifbest steed ran the fleet-footed men to Geonge\u2019s regcue\u2014for it was indeed George! \u201cWessie!

otherwise safe.The blinded Tioness and her wounded cubs, wandering along the trail, told the storv of my awful work.\u201cThe thorns saved the little missie,\u201d Zamoluga said, ut mother, frantically waiting for us ab the station, breathed a prayer of thanks od.BUZ AND BUTTON.Buzz was so named because when he was a very small puppy he sometimes used to make a queer little sound like a bumble bec, and Button got his name because he bad a round, black spot like a collar button on his throat.Except for this spot both of the little woolly dogs who laved and played together in a big green yard were snow white.They were very lucky little dogs.When they were taken away from their mamma, as they were one day, they had come to live in this beautiful green yard, in which there was a beautiful big house and a still more beautiful lady, who petted them and often took them to drive in her carriage.They had a bath almost every day, too.which they did not Hke so well, but as it kept them white and silky they did not make as much fuss about it as some children do.What they liked best was playing on the green lawn, dhasing each other around and around and rolling over and over down the little terrace next to the femce.Often their mistress would sit out on a pretty rustic seat and watch them, and sometimes, when they pretended to be fighting, they growled and made such a noize that she lectured them on their manners.Then for a while they were very proper and dignified little dogs.Buzz and Button had been warned a great many times not to play down by the fence.I am not sure that they \u2018had not once been punished for \u2018this very thing, and I know they had been scolded for it repeatedly.The fence was very low, amd their mistress told them that it would be quite easy for some wicked person to reach over and kidnap one of them, and perhaps both.They knew this ag well as r she did when they thought about it, but » they forgot it 60 often, and then the Ler- race was such a nice place to roll down, one over the other, growling and barking, to the very bottom, which was against the ence, But Buzz and Bubton disobeyed, or forgot, once too often, for one day, when their mistress was dressing to take them out for a nice drive, and they were romping and tumbling down the terrace, all at once Buzz felt himself seized roughly from above, and Button felt a quick grab that just missed his tail as he scampered up the slope with his ears laid back and his eves standing out with fear.When he had reached the safe place, and turned about to look, poor Buzz was mowhere to be seen.Then Button looked everywhere, and called and whimpered, but Buzz did not come.Presently his mistress came out, and when she saw him alone she called end looked, too.Then she grew excited, and also began to cry, and ran into the house, calling that Buzz was stolen, and prdering all the servants out to look for him.It was a terrible day.Button was locked up in the basement just as if he were to blame for it all, and men with blue uniforms brass buttons came down ana looked wt him, where he sat huddled in one corner, lonesome and heartbroken.Then everybody went away, and he was all alone, and barked amd howled and wept until late in the evening, when his mistress returned, amd hugged him and cried over him and gave him some supper.But Buzz did not come back.The thief whoever he was, kept him well hidden.Day after day passed, and Butbon\u2019s miis- tress gave up hope and mourned the missing one as dead.As for Button, he grew thin, and moped, and mever cared any more for romping on the lawn.His mistress petted him and let him ride in the carriage more than ever, and one day a doctor came and gave him some unpleasant medicine, but all this did not bring bank the lost Buzz, and it was only his little brother Buzz that Button wamted.| And so at last he made up his mind that he would go and find him.He thought he knew which way the thief had gone, and he believed if he could only get out of the yard and go and keep going he would find Buzz at last.He watched his chance for several days, and one morning, when the back gate had been left open for a minute, he slipped through urnoticed and ran and ran.He found himself in a sort of a lane or alley, and he didn\u2019t know where he was or where he was going.He only knew that somewhere out in this big, terrible world was poor Buzz, and he was going to find him.Twice he was chased by verv dirty children, but they could mot cat& him.When he stopped at last to pant and consider, he could not have told where he was or how to get home to save his poor little life, But perhaps instinet was stronger in Button\u2019s brain than reason.For presently he found himself going again, and by and by he came to a high board fenme with a little omen gate, which he hounded through without stopping to think or to reason any whatever.He found himself in a little dirty vard without a spear of grass on it and half ful?of barrels and cans.In the middle of it all there was a stick driven in the ground, and tied excitement.gone that day, for nobody came out to did I fall |starved little creature that gave a great tug at the string and a wailing bark as Button entered.Button stopped amd gave one look, then a joyous answering bark, for in spite of dirt and starvation he knew that the poor little fellow

not follow he was in great distress.Buzz tugged at the string and whined, and Button sat watching him and really trying to think and reason, this time very hard.Suddenly he ran to the tightened string, and, in spite of its dus and bad taste, he began biting and chewmg at it as if it were a mice bone.He chewed and bit and chewed, while Buzz tugged and tugged, until by and by, with ome very hard tug, Buzz tumbled heels over head, for the string was broken right in two and he was free.They ran a very long way, and at last found themselves in a wide, beautiful road.Some carriages were passing, and all at once they heard a little scream and a carriage stopped, and then Buzz and Button knew that it was their dear, beautiful mistress, amd that they were found and safe.,She had been out searching for Button since morning, and when she saw him and realized that the poor little creature with him was Buzz, she gathered them both in her arms, in spite of the dirt, and hugged them while she cried and laughed both at once.Then when she saw how the string on Buzz\u2019s neck had been bitten and chewed, she knew that Button had dome what all the officers and servants fogether had failed to do.He had found Buzz and brought him back to her.That night Buzz and Button slept once more together in their own little bed.In a few weeks both were as fat and beautiful as ever, playing and rolling on the green lawn.But they do not roll down the terrace mow, and you could not get them near the fence, no matter how much you coaxed them.And then, too, their mistress rarely allows them to play on the lawn unless she is watching them from the pretty rustic seat.\u2014Albert Bigelow Paine, in the N.Y.Herald.The Modern Boy, I wonder if the boys and girls Who lived in olden tims Were

We could but wonder how she kept warm in those gongeous but draughty apartments.The palace is now kept open mamly as a show place, for it is inhabited during only three days of the year.At that time the two Queens repair in state to Amsterdam, where they review the Dutch fleet on the Zuyder Zee.An American Tribute to Nelson.(Chicago Times-Herald.) While the air resounds with the naval victories of Dewey, of Sampson and of Schley, and comparisons are being made, not unjustly, between the feats of our admiral and those of Emngland\u2019s greatest sea warrior, Horatio Nelson, it might be well to remember that to-day is the nine- ty-third anniversary of the greatest sea fight in history, the battle of Trafalgar, in which Nelson destroyed the combined fleets of France and Spain, and established England\u2019s supremacy on the sea.Nelson\u2019s career is one of the romances of history.A midshipman at 12, a post- captain at 21, a commodore at 37 and an admiral at 39, his genius for war and his 3 \u20ac CRIPPLED WITH RHEUMATISM Mr.Alpheus Mott, an esteemed resident of Morewood, Ont., says: \u201cFor some years past 1 have suffered horribly with rheumatism.At times 1 was so bad that 1 was almost wholly deprived of the use of my legs, and could only go about with great difficulty.I had to give up farming entirely and removed to Brockville, where | had the best of medical advice, but with no good results.1 also tried many remedies said to be cures for rheumatism, but with no better results.Some of my friends urged me to try Dr.Williams\u2019 Pink Pills, and I decided to do wo, and found they were doing me a \u201cgreat deal of good.1 then moved to More- wood, where 1 still continued the use of the pills, steadily gaining in health and strength, until 1 could abandon the use of the cane, without the aid of which I could not before move about.Every ache and pain left me, and only those who matism can understand the joy I feel at what Dr.Williams\u2019 Pink Pills have done for me.\u201d A VICTIM OF SCiATICA Mrs.J.Palmer, now a resident of Forest, but for some thirty-five years a resident of the adjacent township of Warwick, says: *l1 have for many years been a great sufferer from sciatic rheumatism, being at times so bad that I was not able to walk.1 fried many remedies, and while I had temporary aid from some, 1 received nothing in the way of permanent relief.In fact, it secraed to be growing steadily worse, and for nine months I was forced to use crutches.My gister urged me to use Dr.Williams\u2019 Pink Pills, and they have done tne a wonderful amount of good.The crutches have been discarded.1 can go about as easily and feel better than 1 have felt for years before.1 think these Pills a grand medicine.\u201d COULD NOT SLEEP Mr.David R.McKay, the well-knewn baker, of Stellarbon, N.S., writes: \u201cI feel that 1 cannot say too much in praise of Dr.Williams\u2019 Pink Pills.I was very badly run down, could not work and could not sleep at night.My appetite was poor and I was rapidly losing my flesh.{ began the use of Dr.Williams\u2019 Pink Pills, and was surprised at the rapidity with which they built me up.In a few weeks my weight increased from 130 to 149 pounds.My appetite returned, I could sleep well, and could do my work without feeling tired.I always recommend Dr.Williams\u201d Pink Pills to those ailing.\u201d the Sleeping Beauty.This dainty villa is M which we do tense de Beantharnais, while Queen of Hol- | have suffered the terrible pangs of rheu- Girls\u2019 Circle.The puzzles shall begin here undaunted valo r*\u2018 have made his name the and now, and all jhe members of the Circle most renowned in the annals of naval who are not too busy with the story com- !

after rain the accumulation of filth on the streets drained off into the cellar dwellings of the poor.The mortality of the lower classe was frightful, especially among children.Until 1850 children under eight years of age worked in the factories, ten amd and the winter if you twielve hours a day.Human beings for OF J stave o use.1511 there \u2014\u2014 the first time were competing with machinery, and for twenty years human beinga were the cheapest.The vicious conditions of their live made crime.À man in working clothes could not enter a park.ere Were no free libraries, free schools, peoples institutes, bath or wash houses.T Public house was the only refuge of the Door from the sweat shops and the cella paupers numbered 1,500,000, the erimina]y 50,000.In 1893, with the population in creased 50 per cent, crime was reduced 78 per cent.Let us now look at ti, change of the present day.The laborins man is mow enfranchised, the _childre- taken from industrial life and put in public schools, sanitation and £ safeguards are now compulsory by law, Aori.culture is largely abandoned for many.facture and commerce.Water and sew, systems are universal, the parks libraries are open to all classes aly Wages are actually higher than Sixty years ago, and the purchasing p greater.The laboring voter is Targely oo majority over all voters, so much so thaw the House of Lords are mow threateneq The demand for universal franchise dates with the public demand for free and open schools, THE WORK OF NOVELISTS.In all the great improvements Victorian Age novelists and writers have takey a prominent part.Dickens was instry.mental in rehabilitating the private schools, in abolishing the imprisonment for debt, correcting the abuses and delays of chancery court.Walter Besant\u2019s \u201c4 Sorts and Conditions of Men\u201d hurried the people\u2019s palaces, schools of science, and mn.seums into existence, Mrs.rowning released the factory children; Tom Hood called the attention of the public to sweating by his Song of the Shirt; Kingsley and Charles King each helped in the re generation of the age, and Carlyle was thn prophet of Altruism as opposed to the abominable political economical syste, of Adam Smith.This sentiment pervades British politics.The law interferes t, protect labor in its life, safety and usages; the government is the model em ployer; the \u201cliving wage,\u201d thd issue of the day.Factories must be sanitary, the Qwel lings and estates must be healthful, the home of a lord is now no more his castle than is that of the humblest.With such wonderful advancement of the greatest power on earth is it any wonder that the loval subjects of Her Majesty Queen Victoria would pray God Save the Oneen, GEO.M.SINN.The Passing of Autumn, The wizard has woven his ancient scheme, A day and a starlit night;
