Marshall, ex-M.P.There is a tremendous demand for i.aurier's pictures and buttons here.The result of the general election is the sole topic of conversation, and L'indreds in the overcrowded civil ser- wie, put there because they were the :retber or nephew or cousin of somebody with a pull, are feeling very nervous.Fume of the civil servants have openly si.mped for the Conservative candidates aul they at least cannot grumble if they are given liberty to attend exclusively ta sich duties.Lin 5 hat SIR CHARLES TUPPER.Sir Charles Tupper, who was yesterday \\smissed ignominiously from office, is to- {av packing up his private papers and -Tfects in the office of the Secretary of state.He has been Premier for seven weeks.He will doubtless resign within « day or two, because Parliament has Leen summoned to meet for the despatch +?! business on July 16, and His Excellency could not permit the defeated Government to change that date, yet it may be necessary to change it, and change it immediately.If Mr.Laurier is sent for, say to-morrow, he could form his Cabinet probably by July 1.Then all the new ministers would have to go back for re-election, writs issued and a poll Feld if there was opposition.Any delay iu the resignation of the Tupper minis- \u2018vy would necessitate the postponing of rarliament, and that cannot possibly be \u2018one by them.Their early resignation .~ therefore imperative under the circum- \u2018ances, although no one would grudge \u201d-rm a couple weeks\u2018 delay under other .\u201cumstances.If there is delay and sr\u201d.:anient obeys the Royal summons to -* ON July 165, the spectacle will be -=-ntel of an adjournment for two - «x t0 allow Ministers to be re-elected, « involving a waste of several thous- = nf dollars and the inconvenience of Lers coming to Ottawa to idle their For the sake of public conveni- therefore.it is thought that Sir \u201cà Tupper will not delay in banding + resignation to His Excellency.Premier looked very glum in his «7 ment to-day.One of his intimates that he had been knifed by ~-ario colleagues, Messrs.Haggart, age and Wood, and had had to \"ats campalgn all alone.This is - | quite true, but no man of any self-re- spect would be dragged around at the tail end of a circus procession in which there was only one lion.It is amusing to see the number of persons in Ot- tava who are going around entering Liberal groups and claiming a share in the victory.The result of the polling has increased the Liberal majority in Ottawa by a thousand within twenty-four hours.Most of the straight Conservatives, who take | their beating like men, cast the blame largely on the Tuppers and the men who compose the cabinet.There is universal regret at the defeat of Mr.William Paterson, but it should be widely known that it is due to the fact that Mr.Paterson was everywhere hut at home helping his friends and of course Mr.Henry was a strong opponent.The riding won by Mr.Henry was made to order by act of parliament in 1892 so it should return a Conservative so that the gerrymander will now be put right.Mr.Henry will not long enjoy his victory.HOW THE PARTIES WILL STAND IN THE HOUSE, The following is the best estimate that can be made of the result of a vote in the new House of Commons, where it would be a question of for Laurier or against bim:\u2014 Gov.Opp.Ontario .42 20 24 ov ne 50 42 Quebec .vi th ve he ee a 50 15 Nova Scotia .11 9 New Brunswick ve a 5 9 Prince Edward Island .2 2 Manitoba .4 3 Territories .Ce ee ee 4 0 British Columbia .4 2 Total .131 82 This would give Mr.Laurier a majority of forty-nine, because the Mc- Carthyites and Patrons must vote on one side or the other.The Speaker would not vote so that would reduce the government's majority to forty-eight in a full House.If Mr.Davin is elected in Assiniboia and if Mr.Rogers of Frontenac voted with the Conservatives then Mr.Laurier's majority would be forty-four.It cannot go less than that and will in a very sbort while be fifty.Algoma is counted as going Liberal for the purposes of the above count.Mr.Stubbs of Cardwell is sure to give the government a support while Mr.Jéhn Ross Robertson and Col.Tyrwhitt and Mr.Clarke Wallace are counted as voting against Mr.Laurier.LIBERAL GAINS IN OTTAWA, Ottawa, June 25.\u2014Sheriif Sweetland, returning officer for Ottawa, wade his official declaration of the poll to-day.Slight changes in the returns show the total votes of the various candidates to have been as follows: Hutchison, Liberal, 3.227; Belcourt, Liberal, 2,992; Robinson, Conservative, 2,751; Champagne, Conservative, 2,637; Mec- Veity, Independent, 2,100.Ottawa City bas, therefore, given a Liberal majority of 476 for Hutchison and 355 for Belcourt.Formerly it was Conservative by a thousand.Latesty returns from Carleton County give Mr.W.T.Hodgins, a plurality of over two hundred over the second candidate, J.McKellar, Liberal, Formerly a Liberal had not a ghost of a chance.COL.O'BRIEN FOR NORTH SIMCOE.Toronto, June 25.\u2014It is expected that Mr.Dalton McCarthy will select the Brandon seat and make way in North Simcoe for his former compeer in parliament, Col.O'Brien, whose defeat in Muskoka is generally regretted here, although the Liberals have no feeling but that they did their duty in opposing the gallant colonel.The impression prevails that Mr.Laurier, should his election in Saskatchewan be confirmed, will place East Quebec at the disposal of Mr.Tarte.HON.ALEX.MAORENZIR 8 OLD SEAT.While Mr.Frankland, Liberal, the \u2018butcher boy.\u2019 as he termed himself, has been declared elected, Mr.W.F.Mac- lean, editor of the \u2018World,\u2019 claims that a large number of spoiled ballots will, upon a reconnt, give him the seat.MR.WALLACE S BIG MAJORITY.Woodbridge, Ont., June 25.\u2014Following are full returns from the West Riding of York:\u2014N.Clarke Wallace's plurality Is 4,135; total votes polled, Wallace, Ind., 4,983; Platt, Con.710; Brown, Pat., 848; Clarke Wallace's majority over the Tup- per candidate, Platt, is 4,273; and his majority over the Patron candidate, Brown, is 4,135.This is believed to be the largest majority ever recorded in a political contest in Canada by much more than a thousand votes.THE FEELING IN NOVA SCOTIA.Halifax, N.S., June 25.\u2014It is only the satisfaction of victory that represses the indignation of Liberals in parts of Nova Scotia over the high-handed acts of the government party during the closing days of the campaign.Had it not been for wholesale intimidation of workmen, there is no doubt Sir Hibbert Tupper and his colleague would have suffered defeat in Pictou County.When fishery cruisers were fitted out this spring, none but Conservatives were taken as officers and crews.On election day these cruisers left the fishing grounds and went to ports that those on board might vote for the government candidates.Much regret is felt in Halifax over the defeat of Mr.Keefe who fought a fair and manly fight.In some of the most ultra-Protestant districts in the whole constituency, Mr.Keefe (Catholic) has Protestant colleagues, but in Halifax and Dartmouth, splitting was amazing.In two wards of the city, Mr.Borden (Conservative) is sald to have received about two hundred plumpers.AN AMERICAN VIEW.Washington, June 25.\u2014Az,- MeMillan of { Tennessee who is one of the Democratic members of the Ways and Means Committee, is greatly pleased with the Liberal victory in Canada.It satisfies him, be says, that Canada Îltfke the United States, is inclined to more liberal tarift laws; that Tuesday's elections means greater freedom between the human race in their commercial relations.He adds tbat now that the Liberals will soon be in power, more liberal laws of intercourse between Canada and the United States must follow.Mr.McMillan thinks that the greatest stride that has ever been made in the direction of free trade was when the States of the American Union agreed that there should be no restriction in the matter of trade.\u2018 We are rejoiced,\u2019 he said, \u2018to see that this principle is now to be extended, and that Canada is likely to agree to more liberal commercial relations with us.Now tariff laws on the part of Canada will increase our trade with our northern neighbors and furnish an object lesson to our own people.Canada will be the gainer from more liberal tariff laws with the United States, and the more unrestricted you can make trade between the two countries, the better it is for each.Canada will gain, and the United States will also gain proportionately.\u2019 \u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014 IN QUEBEC, \u2014_\u2014 ENTHUSIASTIC DEMONSTRATION IN HONOR OF THE PREMIER-ELECT.Quebec, June 25.\u2014Quebec literally went wild last night over the Liberal victory, In the last twenty years it has given Mr.Laurier many warm receptions but nothing at all to equal this latest manifestation of its rejoicing over his success.It seemed as if the whole population had turned out into the streets to do him honor and what with the display of flags and fireworks, the music of the bands, lengthy procession of vehicles and the vast crowds that lined the thoroughfares all through Quebec Centre, Quebec East and Quebec West and that éèheered themselves hoarse for the Liberal leader, the scene was a most striking and inspiring one.The procession formed at the Chateau Frontenac and was led by the reels and waggons of the city fire brigade, Mr.Laurier, who was accompanied by Mayor Parent, Senator Pelletier and the Hon.F.Langelier, being driven in a magnificent carriage drawn by four horses, while there were over three hundred vehicles of all kinds In the procession which followed and which included Messrs.Fitzpatrick, Choquette, Guay, Talbot, Carroll, Deschene, Pouliot, Rin- fret and other Liberal members-elect for the district, the Hon.D.A.Ross, and many other leading politicians and citl- zens.Necessarily the progress of the procession was slow as it had to stop at various points to permit of the presentation to the new Premier of bouquets of flowers with which his carriage was literally heaped, and it was therefore late before it reached the Jacques Cartier Hall square where he was expected to deliver a speech, but owing to the advanced hour and the fact that a Grand Trunk train was waiting to take him west, he had to forego the pleasure of addressing the thousands assembled at that point and to continue on to the ferry, where there was another immense gathering and the cheering was again tremendous as he took his departure.It is understood that another and still greater ovation awaits him when he assumes office and returns to Quebec, a considerable sum having been already subscribed.MONTMORENCY ELEC1IONS, The returns both federal and local for Montmorency are still in doubt.It appears that at St.Jean, Island of Orleans, a strong Liberal parish, the bal- lot-box was stolen from one of the polis by the Conservatives and at several other places the ballots cast for the candidates for the vacant local seat for the county were badly mixed with those for the federal candidates.MR.TAURIER SPEAKS.\u2014\u2014 The Tarif Will be Reformed Gradually and With Dae Regard to all Vested Interests.WILL PROCEED WITH CAUTION.THE LIBERAL PARTY A PARTY OF REFORM AND NOT OF RE- é VOLUTION.MR.\u201cLAURIER WILL LEAVE FOR HOME TONIGHT AND THERE KEMAIN UNTIL CALLED TO OTTAWA.The Hon.Mr.Laurier arrived this morning by early train from Quebec, and proceeded to the residence of Mr.George Washington Stephens where he remained till ten o'clock, when he was driven to the St.Lawrence Hall.Here a large gathering of Liberals was in waiting, and cheer after cheer went up as the Liberal chief entered the rotunda.Proceeding Jo his room he received in an informal manner hundreds of friends and co-workers, who had stood by him during the camphign.Among the first to call were Ald.Penny, M.P., Mr.Sydney Fisher, M.P., Mr.Robert Mackay, Mr.Alfred Perry, Mr.H.C.St.Pierre, Q.C., Mr.C.Grothe, Mr.J.Cooke, M.P.P., Mr.G.W.Stephens, jr., Mr.D.A.Lockerby, Mr.W.Drysdale, Mr.A.W.Weir, Mr.R.S.Weir, Mr.Bickerdike, president of the Board of Trade, Mr.R.Dandurand, ex- Ald.Dufresne, Mr.J.8.Thompson, Mr.Carrol Ryan, etc., while a number of ladies, escorted by their gentlemen friends, waited upon the new Prime Minister and tendered him their congratulations.All these were received with the grace and modesty which have ever marked the Liberal leader.He thanked all his friends for the work they had done, the sacrifices they had made, and the results which had been obtainzd.\u201c Mr.Laurier looked pale, but he has few days\u2019 rest, which he purposes to take at his home at Arthabaskavilie.In the course of conversation before the rush of callers, Mr.Laurier was asked to say a few words, now that he had come to power, to allay any apprehension which might exist on the part of those who had vested interests in the country, and who might still be disposed to believe the calumnies which had been industriously circulated to the effect that the moment the Liberal party obtained power the industries of the country would be ruined.\u2018I wish to impress upon the readers of the \u2018Witness,\u2019 and upon the whole country, said Mr.Laurier, speaking with much impressiveness, \u2018that the Liberal party is the party of reform, and not of revolution.The principles of the party have been before the country for years, and I need not go into a formal statement of them.We have said again and again that we stood for reform and not for revolution.If the slightest apprehension is still felt by any person having investments in the country, or engaged in the development of industries and manufactures, I wish to state that that apprehension may be at once allayed.The Liberal party has no thought of doing anything violently.Anything that will be done in the way of reforming the tariff will be done gradually, and with a due regard to all vested interests, which, in so far as any one of them will be in any way affected will receive ample notification.We shall proceed with caution, carefully considering every step we take, and assuredly it is far from our thought to produce the smallest dislocation or disruption.I wish to impress this upon the country, to reassure all parties as to the attitude of the Liberal party in the premises.There will not be a single act of violence as far as any industry is concerned, and whatever changes it may be deemed advisable to make will only be made in the most gradual way, and these will be in the interest of all.\u2019 \u2018You are satisfied, Mr.Laurier, with the manner in which the country has responded to your appeal ?\u2019 \u2018Perfectly gratified with the result, and especially so with the noble showing of the Province of Quebec.\u2019 Mr.Laurier remained in the St.Lawrence Hall.most of the day, and was waited upon by hundreds of local Liberals, who testified their joy at the result in the most enthusiastic manner, and offered to the chief congratulations and expressions of love and homage for the noble stand he had taken throughout the campaign.He leaves to-night for his home, where he will remain till call- ed to Ottawa.rene ' A à x A RE en ae + Ra DEN > ÈS APRES + Pa AE recovered his voice, and simply needs a\u2019 The general feeling is that Sir Charles Tupper will resign early next week, and that Mr.Laurier will be sent for by the Governor-General.In the rotunda of the St.Lawrence Hall the Liberals, in discussing the result, were unstinted in their praise of the work which the \u2018Witness\u2019 had done, and the influence it had wielded in educating the people to a thorough confidence in Mr.Laurier and the principles he represented.\u2018The \u2018Witness\u2019 has done William Drysdale, amid a group of Liberals.\u2018Its known pendence gave it great weight in the contest.\u2019 \u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 McCARTHY INTERVIEWED.\u2014 \"HOW THE LEADER OF THE THIRD PARTY SURVEYS THE ELECTORAL RESULT.\u2014 Toronto, June 25.\u2014The champion anti- coercionist, Mr.Dalton McCarthy, interviewed upon the result of the election, said: There is nothing to be surprised at in the general result.The tariff question would have defeated the administration if the school question had never come up.The people want a material reduction in duties.The government could not have hoped to win.Any government that is successful must have a master mind.Since the day that Sir Mackenzie Bowell took hold of the premiership there has been no leader for the Conservative party.The Ministers were continually squabbling among themselves.Montague had as much to say as Bowell.They could not decide anything.They had members of the government not speaking to other members.Disruption was imminent several times, Speaking of the coming administration, Mr.McCarthy said: Mr.Laurier has better men than the others had.I don't think that he will be badly advised.The rank and file of the Liberal party want the tariff cut down a third.The country wants it, too.For years the fiscal question has been overshadowed by other questions.Remedial legislation, Mr.sald, is as dead as a door nail.The Church\u2019s pull is gone.That is how it looks to me.Of course, I am not attempting to say that I understand Quebec.Perhaps there is a schism in the Conservative ranks in the French province.Caron doubtless thinks that he was vastly {ll-treated.Thompson wanted to get rid of him, but decided that the then Postmaster-General knew altogether too much to make it safe to allow him to leave the family circle.I have nothing new to announce respecting my political movements.I suppose we shall be in Ottawa in a few weeks.Doubtless Mr.Laurier will ask them to consent to the passage of a supply bill, and will then prorogue until January.\u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014e LATE RETURNS.St.John, N.B., June 25.\u2014The election in Westmoreland is in doubt, both sides claiming it.The matter will not be settled until the official declaration is announced.\u2018 Halifax, N.S., June 25.\u2014Advices to-day from Richmond County, Cape Breton, to to the effect that Gillies, Conservative, has a majority of twelve.There will, no doubt, be a recount.Winnipeg, June 25.\u2014West Assiniboia gives N.F.Davin, Conservative, two majority.WIMAN CONGRATULATES LAURIER.New York, June 24.\u2014Numerous messages of congratulation from Canadian residents and others living here were forwarded from here to-day to the Hon.Wilfrid Laurier, Arthabaskaville, Que., congratulating him upon the victory of the Liberal party in the Dominion elections yesterday.Among them was the following from Erastus Wiman:\u2014 \u2018 Because 1 love my native land and honor you, I congratulate you from the bottom of my heart.Now may the daisy that springs from the earth on one side of the border line, and nods its head on the other, no longer mark the commercial barrier that cuts this continent in twain.But, maintaining the heartiest allegiance to the greatest of empires in the commercial world, may Canada emulate the glorious example of Great Britain and in the greatest of her colonies illustrate the principle that the freest get the largest development and enlarge and equalize to the greatest degree, the area of opportunity, now needing, as never before, on both sides of the line, enlargement and equalization.® \u2014_\u2014\u2014 DEMONSTRATION TO-NIGHT.A great demonstration by the Liberal party will be held on the Champ de Mars this evening.The Hon.Mr.Laurier and others will deliver addresses.A platform will bc erected for the accommodation of the speakers.A general turnout of all friends and supporters of the victorious chieftain is expected.Cary 118 TAN TH AR RA RA TAY BF AR pe ea ce oda eh RE.Sa 2

.rallway would turn an unnecessary wheel noble work,\" was the comment of Mr.: until .Speaking of the financial integrity and inde-; p g the presidential clection.jssues of the campaign, he said:\u2014There is not a western railway, with a few exceptions, that does not pay seventy percent of its gross receipts for labor and supplies.The exceptions pay out sixty percent.The after margin of profit for capital is very smal.=! If, as the free silver advocates themselves\u2019 claim, free silver will raise the price of products and labor, the railways will have to raise their charges accordingly.Furthermore, if we are to receive fifty cents in place of a dollar, the railways will be driven into confusion and bankruptcy.The proposal is to revolutionize the money basis in the face of the world.If it carries, it will be followed instantly by a widespread panic and havoc, blacker and more disastrous than any business calamity that ever swept America.The situation that now confronts American railways and the managers of great investments and capital is awalting the settlement of this tremendous question and the wiping out of the menace against their property and money.-\u2014 THE HIGH COMMISSIONERSHIP.Quebec, June 25.\u2014It is rumored here that Mr.Dobell, Independent Liberal, the successful candidate in Quebec West, will be appointed Canadian High Commis- De AE ND MR.R.R.DOBELL.sioner to London.Mr.Dobell, who has long been connected with the Quebec lumber trade, is a highly esteemed citizen of the Ancient Capital, is an Englishman by birth, and son-in-law of Sir David Macpherson.\u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 POPULISTS FAVOR FREE COINAGD.Washington, June 25.\u2014The most conspicuous Populist political leader in public life, Senator Peffer of Kansas, does not expect Mr.McKinley's defeat this year, except by a union of all the free silver forces.On the other hand, such a combination, hz believes, will sweep the country.Albuquerque, N.M., June 25.\u2014At the Populist territorial convention held here yesterday for the election of delegates to the national convention resolutions advocating co-operation with the Democratic party for the free coinage of silver at the ratio of sixteen to one, were unanimously adopted.New York, June 25.\u2014A Cincinnati despatch to the \u2018Sun\u2019 says: Democratic politicians are proclaiming John R.Mc- Lean as the Moses who will lead them to victory and the Democratic convention in Chicago will be asked to nominate him for President.McLean took up free silver in his newspaper.Support flocked to his side and A.W.Thurman began booming McLean for delegate-at- large.\u2014\u2014 DEAN CARMICHAEL AT TORONTO.Toronto, June 25.\u2014At the consecration of Bishop Dumoulin yesterday the sermon by Dean Carmichael of Montreal charmed the vast assemblage by its eloquence.In speaking of the mission of the Church he used this significant expression: Its mission is not to kneel to kings for power, or to use political intrigue; it solely and alone exists to win the world to Christ.THE WEATHER.Meteorological Office, Toronto, Onc., Sune 25, 11 a.m.\u2014The following are the minimum temperatures: \u2014Calgary, 46, Edmonton, 52; Prince Albert, 48; Qu\u2019Appelle, 42; Winnipeg, 54; Port Arthur, 52; Parry Sound, 54; Toronto, 56; Ottawa, 50; Montreal, 54; Quebec, 46; Halifax, 46.Probabilities for the next twenty-four hours: Fair, stationary or a itttle higher temperature; local showers to~ night or to-morrow.- Montreal, June 25.Readings by Hearn & Harrison's Standard Barometer at noon to-day, 30.17 ; yesterday, 30.21.To-day.temperature, max.75, min.57; yesterday, max.74, min.ñ4.\u2019 JE EE SEE SE LISE GI FT RL MAI ee \u2014 2 a Nab æ THE MONTREAL DAILY WITNESS.BiRgHS.MARRIAGES AND DEATHS.Wotioes of births, marriages and deaths must {nvard ! ably be endorsed with the name and address of the sender, or othericise no notice can be taken af them, | Birth notices are inserted for tic, marriage notices Jor 50c, death notices for 25c prepaid.The an- | nouncement of fureral appended to death notice, 250 , extra; otnes\u2018 extension fo obitnarv.auch as short sketch qf life, tro cents per word extra, excep Poetry, rrivich is 50 centa per line extra\u2014prepaid.dngual subscribers may have announcements of births, | \u2018mart iages and deaths frkthout extended obituary or verses/ oocurriny in their irmmediate familice./ree : of charge, 3n tohich case naze and address of sub scriders aitould be given BIRTHS.BARWICK.\u2014On the 16th inrt.the wife of IF.II.Barwick, of a daughter.24 ROSE-RONSS\u2014At #7 University street, Montreal un the 23rd June.1% the \u201cwife of Ici ald Ross-Ross, of twin.sons.za SMITH\u2014 At 37 157, a son to Mr.\u2018 June 15, =: ith.25 Closse sftrect, on and Mrs.J.W.MARRIED.BLACHFORD-BR!

being one of the most numerously attended of all the public schools in Montreal, there is never too much room to spare on the occasion of the closing exercises although the hall in which they are held is of considerable dimensions.To-day's prize giving proved no exception to this rule and many parents and friends of the pupils were thankful to be able to attend at the doors to witness what they could of the proceedings.After the hymn, \u2018Brightly gleams our banner\u2019 bad been sung by the children and a prayer offered up by the Ven.Archdeacon Evans, who presided, the annual report was read by the principal, Mr.Archibald MacArthur, B.A.Notwithstanding the fact that the attendance was much smaller in the upper class, by reason of the opening of the Aberdeen school, they suffered from overcrowding and if the school population of the district continued to increased at ts present trade increased accommodation would soon have to be provided.There were 394 boys and 380 girls on the rolls, the average attendance being 600.The conduct of the pupils had, on the whole, been very good.The report dwelt on the want of a good library, good reading being so essential to children in these days, when they were go prone to take to bad and vicious reading which is too easily obtained.It was intended to continue the cookery class, which is a recent innovation, as its success was so marked.The general work of the puplls had been good.seven out of seventeen senior boys having qualified for Commissioners' gcholar- ships.A few words devoted to the good work done by the Horticultural Society of the school closed the report after which Archdeacon Evans proceeded with the presentations.In the intervals some pretty songs were rendered by the kindergarten and other classes.At the close of the presentation, Archdeacon Evans spoke a few words expressing his satisfaction with the work done by the pupils and the general state of the school, shortly after which the proceedings terminated.ABERDEEN SCHOOL.Aberdeen School or Upper St.Denis street closed this morning.The proceedings were of a very pleasing character, There were present Principal Kneeland of Riverside School, and the Rev.Messrs.Emsley, Dobson and Wood.Mr.Emsley in a happily worded speech congratulated Principal Humphrey on the good work accomplished by Aberdeen school.The principal's report stated that 817 pupils had been in attendance during the year, exclusive of those belonging to the School of Cookery classes.The nineteen classes of the school had together an average dally attendance of 615.The total number of teachers was twenty-six.There were 518 pupils examined, of whom 449 passed, and were promoted, and sixty-nine failed; 194 obtained prizes.The following pupils took part in the musical programme: Misses Alice and Elsie Owen, Lily McKerley, Ethel Roberts and Beatrice Arless.Miss Kate Connors contributed a recitation.Mr.C.J.Smythe of Messrs.Nordheimer executed a piano solo which gave much pleasure to the audlence.Principal Humphrey referred to the good work done by the School of Cookery, which continued its work until the end of May.Its pupils passed very creditable exam- inattons in the practice as well as the theory of cooking.A new primary class is to be organized next September in order to accommodate the ever-increas- ing numbers of children in attendance.MONTREAL SCHOOL OF ELOCUTION.The closing exercises of the Montreal School of FElocution, of which Mr.John P.Stephen is principal, will take place this evening in Association Hall, commencing at eight o'clock.The presentation of certificates to pupils will be made and recitations and readings will be given.The school will be assisted hy Mr.Birks and his pupil, Miss Alice Jen- kin, and by Prof.Parker, and Miss Drumm.The latter will give an original musical composition.The programme is interesting not only to educationists but to all interested in elocutionary progress.SPECIAL NOTICES.Quebec Meet.\u2014If you are going to the.great Bicycle Meet at Quebec don't take any chances, remember the old saying, \u2018He seldom lives frugally who lives by chance.\u2019 Before you leave insure your wheel against being stolen and you will enjoy your trip much better.The cost does not exceed $2,00 and your peace of mind is surely worth that amount.Office \u2014181 St.James street.ADVERTISEMENTS.HALF HOSE, HALF PRICE.We said half price, but In most cases it is much less than half.It is a lot of Lisle Thread and Cotton Half Hose which we wish to clear out.They were selling at from \u2014 50c to $1.50 per pair.| Through no fault of the hose, we have marked them at 25c Per Pair.JOHN AITKEN & CO.1757 Notre Dame St.35 6 ALE OF VERY CHOICE COLLECTIUN OF Healthy Plants.The Subscriber tions from S.8.BAIN, Esq., Nurseryman & Florist, To sell without reserve on SATURDAY MORNING, 27th JUNE.At the salesrooms, 1753 Notre Dame st., the whole of his surplus stock of Plants, including Geraniums.Fuchsias, Heliotrope, Verbenas, Brida!

application to the Marine Board for a second mate\u2019s certificate on board foreign going vessels; and now Miss Alfrida Hilda Gamble and Miss Janet Lindsay Greig have been duly appointed and have commenced their duties as resident medical officers of the Melbourne Hospital\u2014 a large institution in the heart of the city accommodating some hundreds of patients suffering from all sorts of miscellaneous complaints.It has been the custom of the hospital authorities to take the first six graduates in the final honor list of the Melbourne University Medical School every year and appoint them resident medical officers at the institution; but this year they weré confronted with an unexpected difficulty, for the names of two ladies appeared on the list.Among the profession and in the press the battle raged hotly as to the claîms of the ladies; but as the hospital committee includes politicians who foresee the approach of the franchise for women, the lady candidates simply \u2018 walked in,\u201d as the sporting writers put it, when the question came to a division, and they commenced work on Saturday last along with the four new male residents who are their colleagues.Miss Greig, being the lowest on the list, was, according to custom, placed in charge of the casualty ward, and as she went into harness on Saturday, she has had a lively time of it for her first night.She is a very girlish-looking girl of three-and- twenty or thereabouts, and as she went on duty at midnight in a simple black skirt and a cotton print blouse, she hardly looked physically strong enough to

Prince Edward Island seems to have secured to the Tupper Opposition a majority of the ccnstituencies of that province, so often before offered bribes in vain.Even now had the Liberals remained united this reproach would have been spared the province.The same sort of Bribe has proved too much for the Winnipeggers and for some other Manitoba constituencies, and they have secured the same reward.The electors of Manitoba who thus sold the independence of their province and the principles they were known to hold fiercely for fugitive worldly good can now repent at leisure.\u2014\u2014\u2014 ee Afar Union No.73 of Indianapolis has passed a resolution and sent it to the other plumbers\u2019 unions throughout the country \u2018not to allow members to \u2018ride bicycles during working hours, \u2018for the reason that a man doing job \u2018work and riding a wheel can do as \u2018much as three ordinary plumbers on \u2018foot\u2019 The first law of the kingdom of heaven is that every man shall do all the good he can in all the ways he can to all the people he can.This is the law which glorifies work and gives the workers a patent of nobility which surpasses any a monarch can bestow.It is the only principle that is not sordid, the only one that makes life worth living, the one, indeed, which is the straightest and far the most certain course to worldly success.\u2018Give and it shall be given to you ; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom.For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again\u2019 The first law of Union No.73 of Indianapolis is precisely the reverse.With that union it is a crime not to do the very least you possibly can for the man you are serving, even if it costs you three times as much time and trouble to render him the less service.This is surely the law of the enemy of God and man.0 DEATH OF SIR LEONARD TILLEY.A fine figure has passed into the pantheon of Canadian history in the person of Sir Leonard Tilley, a Christian statesman whose virtues, jofned to considerable ability, gave him a first class standing in the councils of his country and adorned a government in which they were not altogether in their true setting.Sir I.econard was one of the fathers of confederation.It was he chiefly who carried New Brunswick, with none of the arbitrary brutality with which Nova Scotia was treated by Sir Charles Tupper, willingly into the larger life of the Canadian federation.It was for patriotic reasons that he, a Liberal leader, took a seat with other Liberal leaders in the first ministry of the new federation.More facile of character than George Brown and Alexander Mackenzie, he adapted himself to and took the color of his new surroundings and became a sup- pcrter of Sir John Macdonald, whose career he no doubt modified for the better go long as he shared it.Like a later New Brunswick statesman, he gained his first prominence as an ad- 4 vocate of the temperance cause, to which he was in every act and vote at all times true.After enjoying the highest honors his country had to bestow upon him, and occupying with great dignity the chair which had before been honored by the oc- cepancy of another stalwart Christian, Governor Wilmot, he has passed, full of years, from an earthly sphere in which he had many thousands of friends and no enemies.- AN EYE-OPENER.The independent newspapers which censecrated all their energies to the support of the Tupper Government being now out of work dre, no doubt, nobly preparing to take a favorable view of a Laurier Government.Like people coming out of a theatre in the daytime, the effort to lcok upon real things in the natural light of broad day, will feel strange at first, but they will get used to it.They have been so long describing British and foreign commerce as a thing ruinous to each and every class of the Canadian community that they will be quite dazed when they first open their eyes to find it in the highest degree desirable, as of course they always: knew it to be.They have been so diligent setting forth the blueness of the conditions which caused the country to plunge into wild protectionism that they will find it strange to realize that the conditions are worse to-day after eighteen years of protection.They have been so long ascribing that blueness to free trade that they will be quite surprised to remember that Mr.Mackenzie had actually increased the tariff just before it supervened.Like people who have been making themselves very silly and absurd under the spell of a mesmerist who had made them think they were each other's sweethearts, and who are by a pass of his hand disillusioned greatly to their own confusion, they will begin to wonder how they could ever have thought high taxation and the dearness of everything to be blessings.They will begin to feel uncommonly cheap on realizing that this is the rubbish they have been proclaiming to the world with every appearance of full conviction.They will remember, too, as a sort of nightmare how they actually thought it desirable to pass a law to force Manitoba to place its Reman Catholic population under the absolute control of their bishop to educate or not, as he chose, and to do so without first trying either investigation or conciliatory negotiation.They will remember how they were fcund actually supporting the most nctoriously corrupt government under the British flag since that of Castlereagh.The open sunshine will do them good, and they will regain their healthy eyesight, and then they will no doubt be able with a good conscience to give the treasury benches their independent support as before.INTERNATIONAL S.£.CONVENTION.DR.KELLEY, OF MONTREAL, ELECTED ONE OF TRE VICE-PRESIDENTS AT LARGE.Boston, Mass., June 25.\u2014The lesson committee report has been presented, and a marked feature of the convention is that while expecting that it would be much criticised by those in favor of a graded system of lessons, not a voice has been raised as yet against the present system.A discussion is yet to take place but the spirit of the convention is emphatically in favor of the present system of one lesson for the entire school.General regret is felt at the necessity of Bishop Vincent retiring from the committee of which he has been the chairman since its organization in 1872.To him is largely due the initiation of the international system, and the convention is slow to release him now.The Canadian delegation had an interesting meeting vesterday to discuss their Sunday-school interests.Dr.Kelley of Montreal has been elected as a vice- president at large, one of three chosen by the convention.The first Canadian paper to arrive with the results of the election was the \u2018Witness\u2019 and much \u2018n- terest and enthusiasm was manifest when one of the delegates read the results\u2019 in the constituencies.It was evident that the representatives rejoiced with the Liberals in their victory.\u2014\u2014\u2014 LEADVILLE MINERS' STRIKE.Leadville, Col., June 25.\u2014The closing down of the mines and the silence of the operators is now accepted by the Miners\u2019 Union as a determined policy to ignore the strike by a concerted action to lock out the miners.The union is holding secret meetings and admits that the contest will be a long struggle.| \u2014 RECEIVED THEIR RED HATS.Rome, June 25.\u2014The Pope had a public consistory to-day, at which the four prelates who were elevated to the cardinal- ate on June 22 received their hats.The new cardinals are Mgrs.Ferrata, Cre- toni, Jacobini and Agliardi, respectively papal nunoios at Paris, Madrid, Lisbon and Vienna.ait SS LE a a TE RR RR ST ese EP waka Te

July 5.The announcement is made that Mr.D.L.Moody has again extended a cordial invitation to the students of America and | other lands to meet at Northfield for | conference and bible study under the! direction of the college department of the: International Committee of Young Men's Christian Associations.The character of the conference is such as to commend itself to the student body generally, combining a pleasant holiday with profitable study.The sessions of the conference are held morning and evening.The afternoon is given to recreation.Platform meetings, at which Mr.Moody will | preside, bible classes, association and missionary conferences, informal discussions and personal interviews indicate the va- riled character of the privileges which the gathering affords.After ten years of experience, Northfield has come to occupy a distinct place in the religious life of the great universitics of the northern part of the continent.Last year more than a hundred colleges were represented there by some 537 students, and the outlook for the present year is even more encouraging still.The delegates {rom McGill University last year comprised five men, this year the number will be about doubled and will include Dr.P.C.Leslie of the Montreal General Hospital: Messrs.H.M.Tory, M.A., E.M.Campbell, president of McGill YYM.C.A.R.C.Paterson, treasurer; N.DD.Keith, B.A.general secretary; M.CC.Heine.and others.The delegates will be quartered in the buildings of the Northfield semi- ary.The programme promises to be well sustained, having on it such names as Rev.Alexander Mackenzie, D.D., of Cambridge, Mass.; Mr.Chas.T.Studd.Prof.R.Ellis Thompson of Phiadelphia; Mr.8 .M.Sayford, Mr.Robert E.Speer of New York; Rev.R.A.Torry, of Chicago, and others.A marked feature of the conference is the prominence given to bible study and for this department the best available talent has been secured.The normal training classes will be in charge of Mr.David McConaghy.Mr.W.H.Sallmon of Yale University, will conduct the normal devotional bible study.me A FAREWELL AND RECEPTION.Unity Hall, Montreal South, was filled to the doors last evening with an audience assembled to bid farewell to the Rev.Mr.Wilson, pastor of the Montreal South Methodist Church, and to receive and extend the right hand of fellowship to the new minister, the Rev.Mr.Lough, who assumes the responsibility of this charge at the instance of the Methodist Conference.The entertainment, which was arranged by the coagregation of the Methodist Church at Montreal South, was of a very social and pleasing character.Addresses were delivered by the Rev.Messrs.Wilson and Lough and hy a former pastor of the church, the Rev.A.BE.Pates.Among those who contributed to the programme were the Misses and Masters Bell, Misses Wilson and Martin of Montreal and other local talent.A pleasing feature of the evening's proceedings was the presentation of a beautiful bouquet of flowers to each of the ministers present by three little girls.At the close of the programme refreshments were served by the ladies, and before separating all Joined in singing \u2018God be with you till we meet again.\u2019 Mr.Wilson will take charge of the circuit in Shawbridge.The valuable ger- vices rendered by the latter gentleman on this charge were recognized last evening in a very tangible manner ; he was made the recipient of a purse of money.\u2014 NOVA SCOTIA METHODISTS.Halifax, N.S., June 25.\u2014The Nova Scotia Methodist Conference is in session in this city.It is reported that there has been an increase in membership during the past year of over seven hundred, the largest gain for several years.There are more candidates for the ministry than there are openings for them in the field, and several young men have been placed on the president's list of re- gerve.Six probationers will be ordained at this session on Sunday night.Dr.Carman, general superintendent, delivered a vigorous address, in the course of which he congratulated the conference on the result of yesterday's election.He was pleased particularly at the action of Quebec, which he believed showed independence of clerical control.The Rev.John Johnson, of Newport, was elected president.\u2014 A LABORERS AWFUL ACT.Pendilton, Oregon, June 25.\u2014A section laborer at Rock Springs, Idaho, who was recently discharged from the Oregon Railway and Navigation road, killed Mrs.Hanney, keeper of the section boarding car, and her infant child yesterday and then committed suicide.It is supposed he committed the crime for revenge, suspecting the woman was responsible for his discharge.\u2014 mn THE ST.HENRI MURDER.Quebec, June 25.\u2014An open verdict of \u2018death from fracture of the skull and ribs caused by a collision with a vehicle driven at a furious rate of speed\u2019 has been returned by the coroner's jury in the case of the unfortunate man killed the other night in an election crowd at St.Henri de Levis.\u2014\u2014\u2014l\u2014\u2014\u2014 FATIGUE POISON.As to the nature of the poison engendered by fatigue, some recent experiments have been made that are replete with interest.Maggiori and Mosso, as well as Wedensky and others, find that if the blood of a fatigued animal be injected into another animal that is fresh and unfatigued, all the phenomena of fatigue will be produced.Wedensky has made a chemical analysis, and finds the poison to be similar to the vegetable poison curare, into which the Indians used to dip their arrows, and a most deadly poison it proved to be.The poison engendered by fatigue is of the same chemical nature, and is ag truly a deadly poison.In case it is created more rapidly than can be carried off by the blood, the organism suffers seriously.\u2014

Saturday afternoon on the grounds of the vice-president of the society, Mr.Alfred Joyce, Rockland avenue, Outre- mont, near the toll-gate.The exhibits will comprise pansies, roses and hardy herbaceous flowers, and cannot fail to prove of great interest to all horticultural connoisseurs.Mr.Joyce and his gardener, Mr.Geo.Robinson, have succeeded in getting together a display in every way worthy of the society and of Montreal.The educational feature of the society's exhibit will consist in the naming of the specimens of herbaceous flowers, thus affording a test to amateur botanists of their powers in floral nomenclature.The electric cars pass close to Mr.Joyce's grounds, and a good attendance of those interested in flowers is looked for.A ABBE GILL WINS, THE CONFESSIONAL SECRET FULLY PROTECTED BY THE CODE.A very interesting and important jndg- ment was rendered by the Court of Appeal this morning in the case of Bouchard vs.the Rev.Abbe Gill.This will be remembered as ap action for damages taken by the plaiutiff, Bouchard, a tinsmith, against the Catholic pastor of Granby, on the ground that the latter induced his (Bou- chard's) apprentice to leave his service.The priest himself being called as a witness in the case, refused to answer a question put to him asking whetler he had advised the young man, either in or outside of the confessional, to leave Bouchard's service.Abbé Gill based his refusal on the ground that if any reference tn the matter was made between him and the young apprentice, Bernier, it was in the confessional, and as such was a privileged communication.Argument was heard on the objection raised to the question, the pretension being in behalf of the priest that under article 215 of the Code of Civil Procedure, the communication was privileged, as à frofessioual secret, and also that the oath of office taken by him as a Roman Catholic priest prevented his revealing anything that takes place in the coufessipnal.For the plaintiff it was argued that the privilege invoked could not apply as the question related to an offence before its commission, and communications of that vature could not claim the privilege mentioned in the Code.Judge Lynch, before whom the case came up, adopted the iatter view, and overruled the objection,\u2018 Abbé Gill then persisting in his refusal to reply, the judge sentenced him to imprisonment for contempt of Court, and hence the present appeal.Ia rendering the judgment of the Court, this morning, Judge Bossé referred to the unanimous recognition of the privilege granted to spiritual advisers, under the article of the Code invoked.The judge him- \u2018self from whose judgment the present appeal was taken fully recognized that privilege, but held that it did not apply in the present instance, inasmuch as Abbé Gill could not be sald to have been acting in the professional capacity which the law protects.A Quebec statute that provides for a fine of $20 againat those who advise apprentices to leave thelr masters, was also invoked as depriving Abbé Gill of his privilege.There could be ho doubt that an accomplice to crime could not claim the privilege of secrecy, but in the present instance, there was only an allegation of illegal advice, without the shadow of a proof that such advice was really given.Crime must never be presumed, and.besides, the curé positively declared that he had violated no law.Moreover, in giving his reply to the young man, the priest would indirectly make known the communication made to him by the latter, and that communication was also protected by the article of the Code.The unanimous judgment of the Court was that .the curé was justified, under article 275, to claim the privilege which he: invoked; there was no contempt of court, and the appeal must be maintained.In concurring in the judgment, Judge Hall remarked that any other interpretation of the article of the Code would be too narrow, and there were any number of instances where, notwithstanding serious inconvenience, principles of public interest must take the lead over all other considerations.He wished it to be understood, however, that his judgment was based solely on the text of the article invoked, and not on the privilege claimed also by Abbé Gill in virtue of his sacerdotal oath, and his colleagues, he under- the Massonas., RE SCL Ho stood, also based their judgment enly on the article referred to.Sim for Ss rg ay PERSONAL.Mr.A.D.Thornton of the Alpha Rub- dered by the Court of Appeal this morn- | ber Co., limited, leaves for England on ing,

Smith.R.N.R., and concurred in by Bloomfield Douglas, R.N.R.The Court is of the opinion that the master made a very serious and unfortunate mistake, and committed a grave and unaccountable error in the navigation of his vessel, but in consideratien of his long and faithful service of eight years in command of steamers of the Anchor line fleet, never having had an accident or casualty before, it considers the requirements of the case will be sufficiently met by the suspension of the master's certificate for three calendar months from the date of the commencement of the enquiry, and his certificate is suspended accordingly.The second mate, ampbell Douglas, who Is in possession of a master\u2019s certificate of competency is reprimanded for not calling the captain\u2019s attention to the course given him by Captain Laird, and upon which he steered the ship nimself, as he should have known as well as the master that the ship was being steered upon a wrong course.The stranding of the vessel was attributed to the wrongful act of the master in causing an indirect compass course to be steered.STEAMSHIP RATES RAISED.New York, June 24.\u2014At a meeting of the and second cabin passage from $6 to $10 for outgoing winter rates.The unusual rush of summer travel which has been noticed led these steamship lines to think such a change advisable.Passengers have already been booked to fill most of the outgoing steamships until July 15, when the winter rates go into effect.The chief lines affected by this move are the North German Lloyd.the Hamburg-American, the Red Star, and the French line.On the North German Lloyd, first cabin passage will be $75.instead of $70, and the second cabin passage $50, in place of $40.No change will be made in rates for steerage, which will remain $32 for outgaing and $36.50 for incoming passage.A simllar change as regards first and second cabin passage has already been made by the lines running to English ports.LOCAL STOCKS, BUSINESS LARGER

and the best of it was, s0 the children said, that no one could ever tell whether these stories were true or not.One day there happened to be a new- i ) comer among the group that surrounded | the old man.He had followed the others\u2019 movements with a slightly supercilious smile; and when Dixon stroked | the pose of a raw-boned, old white horse, encouragingly:\u2014' Cheer up, | cheer up, \u2018\u2018 Roanoke; \u201d things arn't as bad as it might be; ' then added, after a pause .\u2014\u2018 What's that you say?You are of old times?Well, well, we our own dreams, but most of vs fetch up by being slaves to something or someone.\u2019 The stranger would have laughed aloud, only his laugh was : in the bud by his peighbor\u2019s and said, thinking all have nipped hand.Dixon, though he looked sharply at the offender, continued, as he led the horse away.\u2014' If I wes you I would eat my oats with a thankful heart, and not think too much.\u2019 When Dixon took his place under the sycamore that day, he turned his small, keen black eyes on the new boy and said, | slowly:\u2014\u2018 You're one of them that con- | giders a borse nothing but a dumb beast, | with no thoughts of his own; that you | could flog or starve if you saw fit.\u2019 | | i i | | \u2018 Of course they are dumb,' replied the stranger, promptly: \u2018and I am quite sure they don't do much thinking; but I wouldn't starve a horse of mine, for that would spoil his value.\u2019 \u2018I thought as much,\u2019 said Dixon, with! a short laugh.\u2018I bave heard folks talk | like that before.But I could tell you a\u2019 story about Roanoke there that would | show you that a horse does more thinking! than a boy any day.\u2019 At the word \u2018story\u2019 the children settled down around the old man like bees among the clover blossoms.\u2018Is it true?questioned the newcomer, critically.\u2018I don't give much for a boy's understanding that can't tell a fair story from a play one,\u2019 said Dixon, with a wink and a chuckle.Then, with a sweeping glance at the intent young faces around him, the old man began his story without further preamble: \u2018 \u2018When I first became acquainted with Roanoke he was considerable younger than he is now.The moment I set eyes on him I says: \u2018That horse is one of the thinking kind''; and it turned out I was right.\u2019 \u2018lI was helper in the car stables then, and they worked the horses pretty lively in those days, I can tell you.Many an animal have I sent out fresh and chipper that was brought in stiff and cold at night.I had a natural gift for doctoring, and all the ailing creatures were turned over to me.Once in a while when I found some poor old hack pretty well used up, l'A put him on the sick list and get him a good long rest.After a while they seemed to learn this, and I have known them to sham tired when I came around.But Roanoke, he never descended to such frauds.He would have gone till he dropped sooner; but one cay \u2018\u201c~ pole of a truck made a hole in his side, and he was put into my charge.We kept the invalids, on fine days, in a long yard at the back of the buildings.Well, Roanoke and me were always good friends; but after I had doc- - them turn, as I put my head in, i your friends,\u201d ! the head; tored him for a spell he followed me about like a pet dog, and as soon as be heard my voice be would set to and whinny for joy.Then all of a sudden he changed and gave me the cold shoulder.At first I wondered at this, but before long I found out the cause.\u2018In the vard was a handsome, big, black horse.that I was expected to cure of a trick or two.He had been sold to the company for kicking his master, smashing a carriage and killing a groom or so, and several other such good points.His name was Willlam Henry, and he considered man his natural-born enemy, I can manage most things covered with horsehide, but I kept well out of the reach of William Henry's heels.When I took to watching Roanoke, I remarked that as soon as my back was turned, William Henry would walk up close to him and nod and blink, and the two would excharge ideas by the hour.I made sure that the ugly brute was telling Roanoke that soniething ought to be done to show the men \u2018heir place.Well, this went on for more than a week.Meanwhile I had sent V'illiam Henry to work again; but he had a trick of jerking the car off the track at the foot of each hill, and then refusing to take another step; and so the drivers, one and all, declined to have anything to do with him; and back he would amble into the yard with a grin on him, which said as plain as words, \u2018I told you so.\u201d One day I happened in the yerd of a sudden, and there stood all the animals around William Henry.with their noses close together.I was astonished to see and make a rush at me; but Roanoke shoved his big bones in between me and the others, and that gave me time to catch the ringleader.\u201cYou have been imparting revolutionary notions to.some of says I, and I fetch- sound cuff on the side of \u201cand to-morrow you go to work, if I drive the car myself.\u201d \u2018Willlam Henry drew back his wicked upper lip until I could see every white tooth in his head; then he winked one of his glittering eyes.\u2018 \u201cYou can't scare me,\" says I.Just then a sound made me turn my head, ed him a t you bet I was taken aback when I saw that the other horses had crept up close to me\u2014and every one had his lips drawn back and his ears flat to his head.I be- lHeve they meant to trample on me; but Roanoke again took my part, and hustled and pushed them to a more respectful distance.\u2018\u201c Evil communications corrupt good manners,\u201d says I, as I fastened William Henry up under a shed by himself.Then I concluded that it wouldn't do the others a mite of harm to be haltered too; and so I made them all fast.\u2018My room was just over the yard, and about three in the morning, when most ; of the horses were in the building and there was no sound to be heard but the stamping of some restless creature in his stall, I woke up, and do what I would I couldn't get to sleep again.\u201cI'll strike a light,\u201d says I; then I began to hunt for my matchbox; it was gone.I remembered feeling it in my pocket when I was in the yard, so I put my head out of the window and looked down.The mcon was shining as bright as day; and while I was peering about from under the shed walked William Henry.He turned his head up and wagged it knowingly.His big white : teeth glistened as he looked up at me, and my hair stood stiff on my head, and my heart almost stopped beating; for I saw that between those teeth he carried my matchbox.\u2018The black beast walked to the centre of the yard and tapped his hoof lightly and quickly on the stones.Then out came Roanoke, followed by all the others.They formed themselves into a line and moved forward.You would have thought they had been drilled by an army sergeant.I was so taken up watching them and wondering who on earth had unfastened them that I forgot to look after William Henry.\u2018The horses, led by Roanoke, went straight at the wooden grating, which was let down before the opening into the building.I heard the splintering and crashing of wood and they disappeared.The next minute I heard a terrific clattering inside the building.I rushed to the door and peeped out, but drew back mighty quick; for every creature in the place was loose and all making for the street.I picked up a whip and let fly at the nearest; but I might as well have tried to drive a tempest.It was then I began to smell smoke and remembered Willlam Henry and my matchbox.Back I went to the window and looked down into the yard again.Sure enough, a lot of hay and rubbish bad been piled up against the shed, and it was burning briskly; and besides, from the windows on the upper floor, small streams of smoke popped out every now and then.\u2018As 1 watched them I saw, glancing from casement to casement, the black gleaming eyes and face, pointed ears, glittering teeth of that horse, William Henry.\u2018\u201c You have been quick,\u201d says I, shaking my fist at him; and I made for the door.The gallery was black with smoke, and long tongues of flame were licking the walls like thirsty snakes.I was going to scamper down the gangway to save myself from being burned brown, when the sound of hoofs thundering along behind me brought me up short.I had just time to flatten myself against the wall, when William Henry flew by.As he passed me, he turned his head, drew back his lips and dropped my matchbox, empty, at my feet, with a look which said as plain as words: \u201cI have done with it.You may have it now.\u201d As I followed him down the gangway, the fire scorched my left ear.\u2018The firemen were already at work, and I was wonierfully surprised to see al! our horses standing in perfect order, watching the burning building, near the engine horses that had been unhitched.I was thinking that I must have had a nightmare and been dreaming a lot of stuff, when all on a sndden I saw William Henry and Roanuvke steal forward and stand directly before the fire horses.Well what they told them must have been very persuasive, for after a moment the fire horses\u2019 handsome heads went up, and their eyes began to shine; then they glanced from William Henry and Roanoke to the long line of ram- shackly creatures near them.Then I knew that William Henry and Roanoke bad been working upon their feelings, by telling these well-fed, petted animals, all that the others had to endure\u2014the long hours, the hard work, and heavy, overloaded cars.\u2018Suddenly the horses gave a mighty neigh in concert, and the next moment they were skurrying away, led by William Henry and Roanoke, and followed by every one of the car horses.They charged in a body on the crowd of firemen, drivers, conductors and lookers-on around the burning building.Then began such a row, the like of which was never seen before.I shinned it up a lamp-post and watched the whole affair.Some stamped on the hose and tore it to pieces, others flew at the engines and overtuned them, while the rest snorted and kicked and bit at everything in their way.\u2018First off, folks tried to bring them to order; but they soon found it was no manner of use, and before long, every man Jack took to his heels and scampered away and left the field free to the horses.\u2018 \u2018The firemen had saved a few bales of hay.These the animals made short work of, and, when there was no more to eat, they took to skylarking, like a lot of boys just from school.\u2018All of a sudden, William Henry jumped upon a sand plough that had been pulled out of the stable, and gave the wildest kind of a snort, and every other beast stood stock still and looked at him; all but Roanoke.He went about, shoving and pushing, until he had arranged them in pretty good order, three abreast.(To be continued.) ANIMALS AND THEIR WAYS.HUNTING THE HIPPOPOTAMUS.Hunting the hippopotamus, or malee, as the Africans call him, is an amusing sport as long as the hippo doesn\u2019t take a part in the hunting.If wounded, however, he is the best beast in the world to keep away from.An American sportsman recently returned from Africa tells for the New York \u2018World\u2019 his thrilling experience with a great bull hippopotamus which he had wounded : \u201cWe had worked about ten miles up the river, and 1 had two fair-sized cows, which the natives, following in their long dugouts, had dragged ashore on the rocky islets and were cutting up with thanksgiving and Song.One boat, however, still followed, evidently in the hope of getting an entire carcass.Swinging rcund a high point the eddy of a disappearing malee still troubled the surface.\u2018It was unlikely that he had heard our approach, and the chances were that he would come up to blow not far away.1 told my interpreter to order the oarsmen to pull softly out into the middle of the pool, The blacks needed no directions.They understood the game better than 1, and their bottled-up excitement wag ludicrous.\u2018I had a feeling that the beast would come to the surface between the boat and shore, and was sitting ready to fire in that direction.Suddenly there was a great swash right behind me.The malee, a monster bull, surged head and shoulders out of water, with the harsh, grunt-like snort peculiar to the brute.I twisted hastily around, and as I fired my foot caught in one of the thwarts, destroying my aim.The explosive bullet ploughed a glancing wound through the thick folds of the neck, instead of piercing the brain.The malee sank, leaving a tinge of red in the eddy.\u2018An ejaculation of disappointment escaped me, for I supposed the great beast would hasten down the stream, and be seen no more.The interpreter, however, knew better, and with eyes rolling with terror exhorted the oarsmen to make for shore.They bent to the sweeps as men who under- | stood why there was need of haste.The apprehension of my crew was quickly explained.On the very spot | where our boat a moment before was | ficating the hippopotamus rose In frightfuily baa temper.He uttered ; a horrid, squealing sound, suggesting more of the creaking of a heavy door than anvthing else.The great teeth, which will crunch stout planking to matchwood, came together with a snap.His small, wicked\" eyes, almost at the top of his head, were red with fury.: \u2018He immediately caught sight of the boat and made for it.Then began a race for shore, which was the most exciting trial of speed I ever participated in.In his first few plunges the malee cut down nearly half the twenty yards lead we had, but the natives bent to the oars in such agony that, although the boat was clumsy : and heavy, they fairly lifted it at every stroke and we held our own.The.shore was still 100 yards distant.From my place in the bow it was, of course, impossible to shoot without standing, and 1 very nearly went overboard in my efforts to keep my feet.Every stroke of the oars nearly jerked the craft to pieces.\u2018No men could stand the spurt\u2019 which the blacks had started, and the , infuriated hippopotamus, with mouth wide open, began to gain.The horror of his rage, the terrible strength which he must have been exerting to drive his tons of flesh through the water at that high speed was really appalling.Within a dozen yards of shore, to my great surprise, I saw bottom.\u2018The malee\u2019s jaws were not three feet from our stern.The interpreter, who was steering, took a wild header far out to the right, and the oarsmen followed his example on the instant.\u2018The same instant the stern of the boat was reduced to toothpicks in the hippo\u2019s mouth, but his race was run.A steel-pointed explosive bullet at a range of eighteen feet went crashing through his heavy skull.He stumbled and gave the boat a twist which threw me into the shallows.Then, with a grunt and a great splash, he fell dead.1 \u2018The boat load of natives, who had remained at a safe distance, now came up, and 1 certainly was the greatest man in Africa for five minutes.I had the ivory cut out and a litle of the fat layer to be salted into what is known at the Cape as lake cow bacon.The beef I turned over to my admirers.\u2019\u2014New York \u2018World.\u2019 \u2014\u2014__ THE STRENGTH OF A JUMPING MOUSE.In proportion to its size, the jumping mouse is probably the most active and powerful of all vertebrate animals.This tiny creature\u2014no larger than a man\u2019s thumb\u2014is from two and a half to three inches in length, with a tail about twice as lcng as the head and body.It is no larger than a house mouse, but it has light forequarters, strong hindquarters, very long hind legs, and it can jump nearly ten feet.The Chinese divide the day into twelve parts of two hours each.The Italians reckon twenty-four hours round, instead of two divisions of twelve hours each as we do.ADVERTISEMENTS.Fifty Years Ago.Who could imagine that this should be The place where, in eighteen ninety-three That white wortd-wondef of arch and dome Should shadow the nations, polychrome.Here at the Fair was the prize conferred On Ayer\u2019s Pills, by the world preferred.Chicago-like, they a record show, Since they started\u201450 years ago.Ayer\u2019s Cathartic Pills have, from the time of their preparation, been a continuous success with the public.And that means that Ayer's Pills accomplish what is promised for them;

o'clock this morning after an illness of about a week of blood poisoning.At the deathbed were Lady Tilley, his three sons, Col.Toller of Ottawa and other relatives.Samuel Leonard Tilley, son of Mr.Thomas N.Tilley, and great-grandson of Samuel Tilley.whose names figure in Sabine's \u2018Loyalists of the American Revolution' as a grantee of the city of St.John, was born at Gagetown, Queen's County, N.B., on May 8, 1818.The first twelva years of his life were passed in his native village, one of the most picturesque and inviting spots on the River St.John.He was educated here at the county grammar school.In 1830 he went to St.John, became an apothecary's apprentice, and before going into business on his own account entered the employ of Mr.William O.Smith, druggist.Mr.Smith, whose death occurred in March, 1871, was an exceedingly able THE LATE SIR LEONARD TILLEY.public man, and it has been said that young Tilley received much of his po- Htical edncation and ambition from his old employer; though in after years he differed from him on questions of policy, Mr.Smith being a Conservative, and the future statesman an ardent Liberal.The fact that young Tilley belonged to Loyalist \u2018stock\u2019 was a signal passport to success, \u2018in a province which is as clannish and as proud of her sons as any county in Scotland.Smart, active, of pleasing address, of irreproachable character and genial manners, he soon attracted very general attention in the commercial capital.While vet young he went into business with a gentleman who belonged to a family distinguished in the prominent politics of the time.He joined a debaring society, and became 2 strong exponent of the temperance His eloquence and argument in the former, and his zeal and fervor in the latter, soon won to his side a large number of admirers who have followed his fortunes ever since with the same anxiety and pleasure as a mother watching th> career of a favorite son.It was not, however, till 1849 that Mr.Tilley's name appeared in connection with the politics of the country.A vacancy had been caused in the House of Assembly by the elevation of the Hon.R.L.Hazen to the Legislative Council.Mr.B.Ansley was nominated for the seat by Mr.L.H.Deveber, and the seconder on his paper was Mr.S.L.Tilley, who took an exceedingly active and prominent part in the election of his candidate, who was returned by a good majority on the protection platform.In this same year Mr.Tilley's name was again before the people, and this time in a much more ambitious way.He became a foremost member of the New Brunswick Railway League\u2014an organization which was formed for the purpose of building a line of railway from St.John to Shediac.This league grew out of a five-hour indignation meeting of citizens of St.John, which was called to denounce the action of the legislature In defeating the various schemes of rallway enterprise which had been before that body during the session.The failure of the Shediac scheme, In which the hopes of so many were bound up, enraged the people beyond all reason, and a petition was at orca prepared and despatched to the Lieutenant-Governor, Sir Edmund Walker Head, asking him to dissolve the House.Mr.Tilley's activity in this movement gave him a prominence in the affairs of his native land from which he has never receded.The general elections were held in the province in June, 1850, and Mr.Tillev's patience was rewarded by a seat in the Assembly as the representative for the city of St.John.The old coalition government was broken up and the reformers of that day rejoiced greatly over thelr success.In 1854 the general elections were held, and the staunch Reformer, elected by a fine majority, was offered in November a portfolio in a Liberal government.He accepted office, and began from that day a long lease of power, which has continued almost unbroken up to the present time.On two occasions he suffered defeat, but his absence from the House was in each case of a few months\u2019 caus?.duration only.In June, 1866, he was beaten at the polls on the probibitory liquor law question.The act had become law during the session, but the people had expressed themselves so strongly against it that, pressure being brought to bear, the lieutenant-governor remonstrated with his advisers and hinted at a dissolution.The ministry resigned, and an appeal was made to the country on the direct The result was a disastrous defeat.The new government met a House determined on a repeal of the obnoxious act.It was repealed, but on other measures the tenure of power was 50 slight and the smooth working of affairs so uncertain that in the following year a dissolution took place, and Mr.Tilley and his confreres were victoriously returned to power.In a few days he was reinstated in his old position as Provincial Secretary of the province, and shortly afterwards became leader of the government.In 1867 he was made a C.B.(civil) as a reward for distinguished colonial services: and on resigning his seat in the New Brunswick Assembly for a seat in the Commons, he was BWOrn of the Canadian Privy Council and appointed Minister of Customs in the first Cabinet of the Dominion.From November, 1868, to April, 1869, he was Acting Minister of Public Works, and on Feb.22, 1873, he was made\u2019 Minister of Finance until his government resigned on Nov.5, In the same year, when he accepted the lieutenant-governorship of his native province.This office he held until July 11, 1878, and could have retained it for a second term had he felt so disposed, but yielding to the importunities of his friends and the wishes of his former colleagues, he allowed himself to be nominated in his old constituency for a seat in the Commons.He succeeded in being elected, but by the bare majority of nine votes.This was altogether due to his espousal of the National Policy, as a platform of the Liberal-Conservatives.In October he accepted the portfolio of Minister of Finance, and on presenting himself for re-election, was returned by acclamation.On May 24, he was created a Knight of the noble order of St.Michael and St.George at an investiture of the Order held in Montreal by the Marquis of Lorne, then Governor-General of Canada.He was twice married, first to Julia Ann, daughter of Mr.James T.Hanford, of St.John; and second in 1867, to Alice.elder daughter of Mr.Z.Chipman, of St.Stephen, N.B.Sir Leonard Tilley had always been a consistent temperance man and during issue.his occupancy of Government House no liquors of any kind were allowed to be used in his household.He was an attractive and convincing speaker, ready in debate, fond of opposition, quick at figures, and nervous and rapid in utterance.He possessed great tact, and fine administrative talent, and never made an enemy of a political opponent.He has always commanded respect, and may be said to have won his high and honorable position through his own individual efforts, unwearying industry, and an unswerving faith in himself.pt THE SS.\u2018CAPULET.\u2019 MARVELLOUS ESCAPE OF PASSENGERS AND CREW.St.John's, Nfld., June 23.\u2014A representative of the United Press has gone to Marine Cove, St.Mary's Bay, the place where the British steamer \u2018Capulet,\u2019 from Halifax for Liverpool, was wrecked during a fog last night.The place is in an isolated spot, and very little news of the disaster has reached this place.It is learned, however, that the passengers and crew have landed at St.Mary's.Father Riordan, the parish priest at St.Mary's, telegraphs that their escape was marvellous.Shortly after the wreck occurred there was an explosion on the steamer and four men were seriously injured.: Fifty-three bags of mails were lost and nine saved.It is impossible as yet to say whether the steamer is still above water._\u2014ee\u2014\u2014\u2014 BRITAIN AND THE UNITED STATES.London, June 24.\u2014The \u2018St.James Gazette\u2019 this afternon says that Great Britain and the United States have agreed to publisn simultaneously within a fortnight all the arbitration correspondence exchanged between the governments of the two countries.The publication of this matter has been declared while awalting tha arrival in London of Secretary Olney\u2019s latest communication, which was handed to Sir Julian Pauncefote, the British ambassador at Washington, early in the present week.This, it says, is in Mr.Olney\u2019s most incisive style and forms one of the most important documents of the series.reached as yet, though considerable progress has been made towards a general treaty of arbitration between the two countries.\u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 MONUMENT TO VICTOR

SCHOOLS.| THE HISTORY OF THE SCHOOL SYS-| TEM FOR TWENTY YEARS.| Westmount this year celebrates the] twentieth anniversary of the founding of | its common school system, a species of jubilee vear.The sterling little suburb! has much on which to be congratulated.It possesses one of the best academies: in the province and pupils to fill it, and in its healthful and exceedingly beautiful situation few towns in the Dominion\" can outrival it and still fewer in respect to the rapidity and extent of its growth; | none at all in respect to its educational, advantages and intellectual and material | progress generally.| The first \u2018dissentient\u2019 or Protestant common school under a regular board of trustees was opened on the morning of Nov.30, 1876, and the first meeting of; the trustees took place in the latter part of the month.The names of the trustees were Mr.(now Hon.) J.K.Ward, Mr.John McFarlane, and Mr.Alexander Hutchison, with Mr.George McQuiggan | Sh: oh mm DL = A LE / LA NRL { N ; N S Se # \"> R be N es A RE TY 3 NAT 3 THE REV.EDWARD BUSHELL, M.A.Chairman of the Protestant Board of School Commissioners, Westmount, 1896, rector of St.Matthias Church.as secretary-treasurer.The school house ccneisted of a small one story frame building, rented from one William Ches- sar, and stood near where now stands the academy, Cote St.Antoine Road; In reality a continuation of Sherbrooke street from the city.The first principal was Miss Turnbull and the school opendd.with twenty-five pupils, against six huh- dred, the number at present entered for attendance, if not actually in attendance on the opening of the school year at the academy.a The population of Westmount in 1876\u2014 then Cote St.Antoine\u2014was 160 as against 4,800 at present.The limits extended from Greene avenue, above Dorchester street north, as far as ,thbe old toll gate on Sherbrooke street.The great increase in population began about nine years ago and with it of course the increase in school attendance.In 1885-6 the need of a larger building became apparent and was at once decided upon; at the same period by an order-in- .rivalled in any school district council, the Board of School trustees was changed to that of school commissioners: the following gentlemen cormiposed the first board: The Hon.J.K.Ward, chair- 2 TN Fee ZN aa NX N NS N° NW i) Ae X sx SN THE HON.J.K.WARD, Chairman of the First Board of Protestant School Commissioners, Westmount, 1876.man; John Major, A.C.Hutchison, Jas.McFarlane and Thomas Patton.The new school was opened in what now forms the corporation offices.Mr.W.F.Ramsay, who had been elected treasurer in 1878 continued as secretary-treasurer for the new Board of Commissioners and held the office for thirteen years.The increase in scholars was now rapid.The Rev.Mr.King was the first prinei- pal.The school now made a step further in advance assuming the cognomen of an \u2018academy\u2019; the present splendid building was shortly after commenced and carried to completion.Its dimensions and other particulars, together with an engraving of the whole, with grounds, etc., were given at the time in the \u2018Wit- ness\u2019 and hence need not here be repeat- Fonsi tac si, ed.Sufficient to say it is one of the most perfect in the Dominion.Some idea of the extent and rapidity of school progress in the suburb may be had from the fact that the first vear\u2019s school taxes in 1876, amounted to $13.40.This year they come to $13,700! Next to its excellent school building i Westmount has paid attention to the class and quality of its school staff.Nor in this latter have the commissioners in : one whit fallen short; the teaching staff It is generally admitted is not to be out- in the province, while the curriculum is, if anything, higher, and approaches nearer to the university than anywhere else in an academy of the kind.The course of study, it should be noted, is such that a pupil can matriculate direct to MeGill University.The cost of an academy education at the Westmount institution is 322.50, as against frcm $40 to $60 for precisely the same course in Montreal High School.The Rev.Mr.King remained principal for about two years and was succeeded by Mr.Jackson who, resigning, made way for the present respected head, Mr.Nicholson.A native of Prince Edward Island, graduate of McGill and during a considerable term superintendent of Public Instruction for his native island, Mr.Nicholson possesses, it is needless to say, the experience, learning and other kindred attributes essential to a successful head master of an institution of the character of the Westmount Academy.Twenty-one teachers, Including those who are regularly and specially employed, go to make up the staff.They are Messrs.J.A.Nicholson, M.A., principal; W.Chalk, B.A., London (Eng.) University; Misses J.Reay, Stacy, Abbott, McGuire, | Symington, H.Reay, A.Kirkman, Ramsay, Melklejohn, Smith, Walker, Arbuck- le, Wells, Linton, Minto, Hobbs, together with a musical director, Mr.W.H.Smith.It would, perhaps, be proper to note that at Westmount Academy rather more attention is given than in some kindred institutions to what may be designated education proper as against, athletics, etc.Not but that the latter receives due prominence, but physical training is not allowed to usurp the place of mental exercises for which the academy is, and indeed all educational institutions are or ought to be, The course maintained.MR.J.A.NICHOLSON, M.A.Principal Westmount Academy.comprises, besides the English branches, Greek, Latin, German and French, together with the full course of mathematics, hygiene and singing; the latter, under Mr.Smith, is on the tonlc solfa system.It is ascertained that the commissioners this year for the first time, will award a gold medal to the academy division for the most successful pupil and that the precedent thus set will probably be continued from year to year.The present hoard of commissioners consist\u2019 of the Rev.Mr.Bushell, chairman, rector of Westmount; the Hon.J.K.Ward, Mr.M.W.Hutchinson, Mr.Robert Harvie, Mr.Newton Tucker, sec- retary-treasurer, E.W.T.Raddon.The latter, it should be remarked, has held the position since 1891, and he has been indefatigable in the discharge of his duties.It is no secret that to him in connection, with the present.board much of the prosperity which the finances of the academy now enjoy may be attributed; the getting in arrears of taxes, etc., is at no time a thankful or pleasant task, but this he has accomplished to the satisfac- fion of all.The gentlemen comprising the board, too, are entitled to the fullest meed of thanks, for without their clear insight, undeviating energy, not unmixed with self-sacrifice.the suburb would still be with its old pent up school house, instead of the beautiful and spacious edifice which now stands out upon and ornaments Cote St.Antoine road.And all this has heen done without oppressing in any way the citizens.Westmount school tax is only two and a quarter mills on the dollar, a very low rate, the lowest in fact of any town considering the number of residents.When another twenty years jubilee shall have come round the work of the commissioners, if not themselves, will be there still stahding a monument of what men good and true can accomplish for the nurture and development of whatsoever is beau- \u2018tiful in childhood and youth, the edification and building up of sound manhood; in a word, the moulding and amelioration of their kind.So may it be.- me A 6s 4 Proto tended 66,674.PSE RE TI RE \u2014- SIR CHARLES RIVERS-WILSON.| WILL PROBABLY SAIL FOR EUROPE NEXT WEEK, | New York, June 24.\u2014A Chicago des-! patch to the \u2018Times\u2019 says: Sir Charles | Rivers-Wilson, president of the Grand Trunk Railway, arrived in this city ves- terday from a trip to the Pacific coast.In an interview he expressed much disappointment over the failure of the Joint: Traffic Association to afford the Grand Trunk adequate protection against the outside competition of the Canadian Pacific.He was one of a committee, he.said, which was to induce the Canadian Pacific and Norfolk and Western roads to join the Joint Traffic Association.He had no doubt the Norfolk and Western would join, but he was not so sure about\u2019 the Canadian Pacific.He had several conferences with President Van Horne, and was given to understand the Canadian Pacific would give no trouble.He still had hopes of the Canadian Pacific coming into the told, but should it fail to do so and continue its peculiar tactics\u2019 in diverting the business from the west, | via St.Paul, Minneapolis and Duluth,\u2019 the Grand Trunk would be compelled to! adopt measures of defence.The Grand | Trunk, he said, had not carried as much freight lately as it was entitled to, and | if the Joint Trafic Association failed to grant his company the necessary relief it would have to take independent action.Sir Charles Rivers-Wilson is expected to reach New York within a few days, and he will sail for Europe about the first of next month.Those who know of his earnest efforts to make the Joint Traffic Association a success will read his alleged utterances in Chicago with muck interest and some incredulity._\u2014\u2014 BOSTON S.S.CONVENTION.Boston, Mass., June 24.\u2014Three meetings are simultaneously in
