they remain mite forever.Even with those who do struggle successfully after vocal expression, infinite patience is required to develon the first uncouth sounds info the semblance of speech.voice is faint and pitifully shrill, im others it comes in bursts of harsh and lisagreeable sound, such as might have heen in the first struggles after intelligent expression emitted by primitive r an With the nicest care and manifold repetition these first elements of speech ave guided and enconraged into the numerons rises and falls and twists and tnros that make up vocal intercourse.Br the end of the second vear the pupils are able to repeat short sentences.Then their instruction is broadened to include arithmetic and writing and reading.and in gradually the elements of a broad general education are instilled into them.Once the pupil hes learned to read the lips of a nerson who is speaking.he ls not allowed to use the sign language anv more, nor is he allowed to asan- rate with the pupils who can converse onlv hy signs.All instruction henceforth is by the purely oral method.The education which the Fathers seek to give is such as that attained bv punils in the ordinarv schools of the citv.But they do not stop here.They seek also to teach the pupils a trade suitable to them, hv which gthey may earn their own living.Tn order to satisfactorily complete the murse of instruction jt is necessary that the pupil should remain at the school for eight vears, but the parents of the majority of them ave too moor to sup- nort them in the institution for more \u2018san four or five years.Helped out by : subsidy from the Provincial Government.the institution is able.to provide : the most important works of are those which do efore the public notice.long years devoted Brothers of live given the best of their ©.\u201che education of people suffering darkness of these poor of the use of read or write;

: It was under the administration of Father Bélanger, about 1865, that the- first workshops were ned, these boing for the teaching of printing, book-bind- ing, and shoe-making.In 1870 Fathér Bélanger went to Europe to study the methods of instruction there, and he brought back from that voyage the prim.| ciples which permitted him to comments the teaching of speech.which siney day, bas produced such good results.JA\u201c 1880 he assisted at the ¢ in ue and en lis retmm \u2018 \u2018thy.drab xhethod.3° 3% oF - he pdd ing for the workaliops \u2018Wan\u2019 construvié on the other side of St.Louis street, and connected with the main structure by a viaduct.These workshops were destroyed by fire in 1889, and were rebuilt.The loss by this fire.estimated at $30.000, has retarded the project for general enlargement.- Co Father Bélanger left the institution in 1883.after having devoted his services to it for 28 years.His health obliged him to seek rest for a time in another climate.His work for the cause can never be over-estimated.The best vears of his life were devoted to it, and Fe never ceased by his writings.by reports, and by aneeches, to call public attention to the fate of the unfortunate deaf mutes, and to solicit from the members of the government the subsidies neces sarv to perfect the work commenced.The present director of the institution is Father J.M.Cadieux, who is much Joved by brothers and pupils alike.The other members of the council are:\u2014 Brothers T.Mercure.assistant director;

LAVA, TWO HUNDRED FEET WIDE, ADVANCING SWIFTLY, Naples, April 6\u2014The inhabitants of the villages in the vicinity of Mount \u2018Vesuvius are in a éondition bordering on panic.Many homes have been abandoned for the open air, although there has been a thick fog all day and the atmosphere has been dense with volcanic ashes and the fumes of subterranean fires.The churches are crowded day and night with persons praying for deliverance from an impending peril, manifestations of which are heard and felt in explosions which resemble a heavy cannonading, and in the tremblings of the earth, which constantly are curring.The main stream of lava proceeding from Vesuvius is two hundred feet wide, and it advances at times at the rate of 21 feet a minute, the intense heat destroying vegetation before the stream reaches it.easants of Portici, at the west foot of Vesuvius, cleared their grounds of vineyards and trees in their efforts to lessen the danger from fire and resisted the progress of the lava to their utmost.The population of Bosootrecaz, on the southern declivity of the mountain, have sought safety in flight, and Boscoreale, to the eastward, also is threatened, Women of this village, weeping with fright, carried a statue of St.Anne as near as they could go to the flowing lava, imploring a miracle to stay the advance of the consuming stream.The cemetery at Boscotrecaz has been invaded by lava.The scene at night is one of mingled grandeur and horror, as from the summit of Vesuvius there leaps a column of fire fully one thousand feet in height, the glare lighting the sky and sea for many miles.Occasionally great masses of molten stone, some weig ing as much as a ton.are ejected from the crater.The village of Torre del Greco, which has been eight times destroyed and as often rebuilt, again is threatened and the inhabitants are in extreme terror.Signor Matteucci, director of the observatory, is working indefatigably.He has had military engineers establish telephonie connections between the observatory and points within the volcanic activity, The director to-night said to the Associated Press that although the eruntion presented a grave menace.he did not believe it would reach the village.Tndeed, he said, the present volcanic activity was not altogether unmixed with good, for if it had not come to pass, a violent and sudden eruption having a wider radius might have occurred.HOMESTEAD ENTRIES, Ottawa, April 7.\u2014The Homestead entries in Western Canada during the month of March numhered 4.023, as against 2.441 in the corresponding month last year.|

Claim Assets of the Toronto Life Company APPLICATION WILL ALSO BE MADE FOR RECEIVER FOR LISZT PIANO COMPANY.Toronto, April 6.\u2014As a result of disclosures made In the Police Court inves- .ligation betore Magistrate Denison, and armed with evidence brought out by Mr.Curry, the National Trust Company prepared to apply to-day to the High Court for a declaration trom the Court declaring that the Toronto Life Insurance Company 1s rightfully the property of the shareholders of the York County loan, and is not owned by Phillips, Burt and others, who olaimed in Court to possess a mfjority of the capital stock.The company will also apply for a receiver for the Liszt Piano Company, which will bave the effect of throwing this property into the hands of the present liquidators of the York County Loan.This action is of more importance to the mass of shareholders than the present police court investigation aimed at Joseph Phillipe.While the prosecution of Phillipg will not lag, the prosecutors are really® more anxious to secure for York County Loan shareholders all property made valuable with York County Loan money, than they are to convict Joseph Phillips.The Toronto Life has a cash value to-day of over $200,000, and the daily lapses on the part of uneasy policy-holders tends to swell this amount.e company has a business of over $3,000,000.The piano company should be worth from $30,000 to Mr.Joseph Barrett was one of the principal witnesses called in the Police Court investigation to-day.He was examined in regard to the large loan which was advanced by the York County Loan Company to his wife.Much of this money, it is alleged, went to the foundation of the Southern Light & Power Co.and though he was managing director of the concern, he admitted that he was selling poles to the company and making a substantial profit out of the concern.INJUNCTIONS AGAINST THE HUDSONS.; Toronto.April 6\u2014Messrs.W.M.Douglas, K.C., and C.D.Scott, for the National Trust Company, liquidators of the York County Loan, were this afternoon granted fourteen injunctions by Judge Mabee.against Georgiana Hnd- transferring, assigning, or pe or consenting to the assignment of.or in any way dealing with shares held by them of the capital stock of the Toronto Life Insurance Company.The argument ta make the interim injunction absolute was heard on Monday.\u2014\u2014\u2014 HARBOR BOARD THE

RUSSIA.St.Petersburg, April &.-Russia expects the other powers to propose a modification of the programme she has outlined for the second peace conference at The Hague.The sole point upon which she is

Hebrews and others in various countries.Russia's delegation to the Hague will be headed by an ambassador.probably Count von der Osten-Sacken, ambassador to Germany.or M, Nelidoff, ambassador to

\u2014\" WINNIPEG STRIKE AN ENDEAVOR TO SEITLE THE TROUBLE BEFORE PRINCE ARTHUR'S ARRIVAL.Winnipeg, April 6\u2014Mayor Sharpe today received from the Hon.Robert Rog ers, who is in Toronto, a telegram stai- ing that he would meet Wilham Ma.- kenzie, and would endeavor tw see what he could de to bring about a settlement of the strike before the arrival of l'rinve Arthur of Connaught on Monday.There is a great deal of uneasiness in the city over the coming of Prince Arthur, as it is feared that unless the strike is settled when the crowds turn out to welcome the royal visitor there is liable to be trou e.\u201cEverything depends upon headquarters in Toronto; the responsibility for the strike no longer lites in Winnipeg,\u2019 was what Principal Patrick and Principal Sparling, who have been acting as mediators between the company and the men, stated.\u2018In other words, it is up to William Mackenzie.If he says \u201cOn with the strike,\u201d the strike goes on.If he telegraphs \u201cAll well and good,\u201d the strike will be declared off to-day, and the men will go to work to-morrow morning.\u2019 The ministers were in conference with the men and the directors until midnight, and have now practically finished their labors.Principal Patrick said that everything had becn adjusted except one point, as far as ooal parties are concerned, and that point is not arbitra tion.The whole difficulty now is the ques tion of an increase of wages.It is un- dergtod on the best of authority that the question of recognition of the union has been adjusted.Upon an answer received from Toronto regarding wages depends the continuance or ternuination of the strike.The city is now quiet.though um- renee crowds throng the streets.Cars did not run after six.The last car at Higgins avenue was besieged for an hour before it was rescued and teken to the barns.\u2014 DAMASCUS TO-DAY.Most travellers, 1 think, will award to Damascus, in Syria, the palm of bein one of the most

\u2018pearl encircled by emer ads.Time has stood still in Damascus for a thousand years and life goes on in the country outeide its walls precise: Jy as it did when the ancient Bible his torian spoke of the city in the Book of Genesis.For there, ploughing is done with a crooked bough drawn by a ragged camel; or by the Arab farmer's wife in double harness with a donkey.There, too, and likewise within the walls.one sees the long lines of indolènt castern women drawing water from the well, just as Rachel did; or women witting beio® the doors of their houses grinding \"9 in the old Bible

Church, is as follows: Organ prelude, Sonata No.6 in D minor (first movement, choral, with vari- ationst Mendelssohn, Mr.W.Lynn- ood Farnam, Cantata, \u201cThe Man of Nazareth\u201d by Jrest, for the

eyes follow every stroke of the oars, every point of form on the part of every oareman, and the race (s unique in that it sustains interest over a longer distance than any other in the sporting vorld proper, and maintains a healthy rivalry between the athletics of the two greatest ceats of learning which has not dwindled or lost in kesnness during nearly à century of varying fortunes on the parts of the participants.The first 'Vareity boat race took Dlace in 1829 at Henley, the next race for some reason or otiher not takimg place until 1836, then two more years intervened without a race until 1/39, when the Owmbridze boat won.The oourse from this date until 1842 was from Westminster to Putney, but in 1845 the course at present used wes tried, viz., that from Putney to Mortlake.There seem to have been some doubts about the aukabKity of this course at different t'mes, for on three occasions, in \u201948, \u201866 and \"63, the course was from Mortlake to Put- ney, a revereal of direction.The year ed & new qra Mn university boat racing, outrigged boasts being ueesd for the first time on that occasion.\u2018There were no races in 47 and \u201843, but two took place in '49.1553

and % times by Cambridge, a dead beat being rowed in 1877, when the Oxford bowmen caught a crab and sprung his oar.The boats themeelves have changed gretty materially since the first race.The present style of boat, without keels, was introduced In 1867, but elding seats did pot make their wppearance in the 'Varsity | boats until 1873.Oxford bas the record for the greatest umber of consecutive viotorles, having won nine consecutive races on iwo occa- etons, from \u201861 to \u201869, and again from \u20189% to \u201888,while the greatest number of consecutive wins scored by Cambridge is five du ing the period 1670-4874.During the training period the condition and form displayed by the crews is watched with the koenest interest.This year the Oxford boat ecems to have been the

Dr.Tait McKenzie, formerly physical instructor and lecturer on anatomy at McGill, and now professor of.physical education in the University of Pennsylvania.is known in the world of art as an eminont sculptor.His best-known work in the plastic art has always been associated with his own specialty, that of athletics, witness a numbér -of miniature statues which are: very popular, not only in Montreal, where they had their origin, but- wherever the athlétic apWit is oultivated.The atriking.specimens of his work which appear in this paper, dating from 1900, hav been printed in \u2018The Journal of Anatomy and, Psychology\u2019 to illustrate an article on expression.We are in hopes that even ° after passing through the degenerating process of newspaper reproduction, they will still be seen to be worthy of the Paris mastera at whose feet the artist sat for a time.They are striking pictures \u2018of physical training as it should not be indulged in.No one can look at the four figures without realizing that the man is doing himself permanent injury, and that the killing effort is one that \u2019enly the direst neossity could morally \u201cPexcuse.lt is rare that an athlete of __this type sees old age.As a rule, his \u201c over-strained heart\u2019 gives out in middle life or his over-trained muscles become an easy prey to some attack of fever.Bodily exercise, kept within bounds, profits much.To fail in it is to reduce one\u2019s life.But such strains as are often .in- - dulged in are carried on at the cost of life.Mr.Andrew Carnegie\u2019s recent deliverance on the railway question is in agree- : ment with the opinion of the late Jay \u201c Gould, who said the time was comihg when the government would have to own the railways or the railways would own the government.Mr.Carnegie seems to think that time has now ar rived: He is not a socialist by any \" means, but looks upon government control as neceasary for the protection of the public.Free competition having ended in monopoly \u2018by combination, there must be some authority to regulate cor porations against which it is charged that they defy the government, practice extortion and discriminate in favor of the trusts against individual shippers.\u201c \u2018Fhey are known to water their stock, evade just taxation, and to have become formidable sinister influences in state : Jegisiatures, and even in the courts.The Rate Bill now before Congress is really the beginning of the siruggle between { ain the railways and tbe government.The -peculiarity of the sitnation- is that.the government, so far as it is répresentéd by the Senate, is more in :favor ofâthe railways than of .the people, in whose interests the Rate Bill.or Hepburn Bill, as it is called after its author, was devised.Another curious feature is that the President and the Democrats support the bill, while the Republicans, led by Senator Aldrich, boss of the senatorial majority, are opposed to it.By the defection of a few Republican senators, Mr.Aldrich was lèd to make the tactical \u2018mistake of placing the bill in the hands of Mr.Tillman as mover in the Senate.Thus the unprecedented spectacle is presented of a Republican President being supported in Congress by Democrats, led by 4 Democrat with whom he is not on speaking terms.The incident has been referred to as a sign among \u2018others of the fatal decay of the Republican party.There is no question .that the nation is behind the President, \u2018and therefore that it\u2019 is not behind \u201cthe party.It only needs, therefore, that a combination should appear before the next elections representing the attitude of the President to carry all before it.\u2018The railways andy trusts generally entrenched in the Senate will fight against either government or judicial control to \u2018the bifter end with all the enormous means at their disposal.But there is'a point beyopd which wealth cannot carry the national vote even -in the United States.We expect a spiteful attack upon the \u2018Witness\u2019 every time, the \u2018Evening Tele grant\u2019 of Toronto can concoct one.We.have looked for these for some months, and they are coming in due course, and with no effort after truth.Some time ago a scurrilous rival of the \u2018Telegram,\u2019 which is running amuck at the Canadian Assurance Companies in a reckless and misthievous way, got hold of a unconsidédred private letter from Sir Louis Daviés to Sir Sandford published it, a proceeding which we presume Sir Louis more and more resents as partisan use continues to be made of his unfortunate epistle.The paper which published it fur some reason singled out the \u2018Witness\u2019 to say that it would not have the honesty to copy it.This seemed to

TABAH.Turkey has the best of resson to be jealous of the British power: establishing itself at Tabah, the port, or point, or post, on the Sinai side of the Gulf of Akabah, which Great Britain is claiming for Egypt.That hitherto unheard of place is utterly insignificant, except for its strategic value, and its strategic value consists in its command over the important port of Akabah, the principal station on the line of the railway which is to run from Damascus to' Mecca, and in a sense the key of all the Sultan's Arabian dominions.One town or the other must likewise be the principal, and, in fact, the only point of importance on \u2018the projected British railway line from Suez to the Persian Gulf, whereby it is hoped to connect Egypt with India.It is therefore no petty game that is being played on the desolate sandy and stony bhores at the foot of Horeb.Britain has not made her claim in an absolute manner, but demanded that Turkish troops be - with drawn until the delimitation of the boundary has been agreed upon.In resisting the claim of Egypt, the Sultan of Turkey is said by theorists to be counting on the Mohammedans ef India and the backing of Germany.From the latter source he perhaps naturally looks for sympathy.The position of Tabah with regard to the Sultan\u2019s railway to Akabah at the head of the Red Sea, is precisely analogous to the position of Koweil, towards the Kaiser's projected Euphrates railway to -Basrah, the Bussorah .of the Arabian nights, at the head of the Persian Gulf.Germany and Great Britain are certainly at cross purposes as \u2018ar as Asiatic Turkey is concerned.Indecd, the German Emperor's chief and moét unforgivable ground of ill-will agamst Britain dates from the time he tried to seize Koweit and was ordered off,

Gates, The idea that the Mohammedans of In: dia support the Sultan appeals to the un- confirméd statement thidt they Xemon- strated with Great Britain when the naval demonstration was made at Mitylene.No doubt there are Mohammedans in India who sympathize with the Sultan, but there is reason to believe that the great majority of them are favorably inclined towards their brethren in Ara- This view is sustained by the fact that when the Sultan sought to have his claims to the Caliphate recognized, the Moslems of India pronounced in favor of who was a descendant of the \u2018Prophet's family, which the Sultan was not.Moreover, all southern and eastern Arabia is under British influence, the Arab tribes never having been reconciled to Turkish rule.For nearly two years the Sultan has been vainly endeavoring to Suppress the insurrection in Yemen, but hopes to do so when the railway to Mecca shall be completed, as he expects some time this year.Meantime the Government of India has recognized the suthority of the Shereef of Mecca in selecting persons to fill certain important religious offices.It will thus be seen that the Sultan is not supported by the Mohammedans of \u2018either India or Arabia.The merchants, who form the most influential class in both countries, are keenly sensitive to the difference between the justice and strength which characterize British rule and the weakness and corruption which form the chief features of Turkish rule.These merchants would naturally desire to see an important tradiiig centre deve}- op under British control.As the boim- daries in question have never been set- dled the solution of the present @ispute will necessarily depend largely on such considerations as we have been mention ing.; \u2014\u2014\u2014> | PRINCESS ENA\u2019'S CONVERSION._ The conversion of Princess Ena ef.Battenberg to Roman Catholicism.has greatly exercised the Protestant press: of \u2018England, as well \u2018as some of her.chief ecclemagtics.That the feeling on the part of many English Protestants is Leen against what the Bishop of London has described as \u2018conversion by order, | shown by the faot that the Protestant Alliance and the Imperial Protestant Ap- sociation issued public protests and ey Pelitioned.the King.to refuse his.co - sent, The Canon of Rochester Las #2 à letter te the London \u2018Times,\u2019 in whid he refers to.the \u2018so-called conversion.df the princess\u2019 as a \u2018glaring inconsistency.\u2019 | The Westminster Gazette\u2019 bas published the form üsed at the ceremony of com- version, as it believed it to \u2018be unknown to the English public generally.As it is probably as little known to the Protestant public of Canada we quote it in part, as follows: \u2018I, having before my eyes \u2018the Holy Gospels, which I touch with \u2018my hand, and, knowing that no ore \u2018¢an be saved without that faith which \u2018the Holy Catholic.Apostolic.Roman \u2018Church holds, believes, and teaches, \u201cagainst which I grieve that I have greet- \u2018ly érred, inasmuch as I have believed \u201c doctrines opposed to her teaching, I now, \u2018by the help of Gods grace, profess \u2018that T believe the Holy Catholic Apos- \u2018 tolic Roman Church to be the only and \"\u2018 true Church established on earth by \u2018Jesus Christ, to which I submit my- \u201cself with my whole heart.I firmly be- \u2018lieve all\u2019the articles that she propounds \u2018to my belief, and I reject and condemn \u2018all that she rejects and condemns, and \u2018I am ready to.observe all that she com- \u2018mands me.\u201d Then follows a profession of faith in the specilic dogmas of the Roman Catholic Church, of which the \u2018following is the closing clause: \u2018I believe \u2018in everything else that has been defined \u2018and declared by the Sacred Canons and \u2018by the General Councils, especially the \u2018Holy Council of Trent and by the \u2018 Ecumenical Council of the Vatican.\u2018With a sincere heart, therefore, and \u2018with unfeigned faith, I detest and ab- \u2018 jure every error, heresy, and sect op- \u2018 posed to the said Cathalic Apostolic and \u2018Roman Church.So help me God and \u2018 these Holy Gospels which I touch with \u2018my hand.\u2019 This declaration is naturally as repugnant to Protestants as\u2019is the form of oath taken by the King at his torona- tion to Roman Catholics.It is the form of this declaration that is much dwelt upon in England and also in the Protestant press of the United States.The \u2018Northwestern Christian Advocate\u2019 (Methodist), Chicago, asks, for instance: \u2018 What can the King of England and oth- \u2018 er members of the royal family of Eng \u2018land, all of whom are Protestants, think * of the declaration made by one of their \u2018number that \u201cno one can be saved with- ¢ \u201cout that faith which the Holy Catholic \u201cApostlic Roman Church holds, believes ¢ \u201cand teaches,\u201d and that the Princess \u2018 \u201cdetests\u201d every sect, which necessarily \u2018includes the Anglican Church?It concludes that the absurdity and insincerity of a state churèh was never more strikingly illustrated, and points to the les- son from the United States, where the bis, who are in revolt against Turkex;!| the rival claims of the Shereef of Mecca, | head of the state and his wife are permitted to follow their personal convictions.Probably few persons, says the \u2018Advocate, know that President Roosevelt and his wife belong to different religious communities, and few would\" care, it opines, if they did know.The required conversion, indeed, is a relic of the days when the Church dominated the state to the great injury of both church and state.Father Vaughan naturally strongly takes the other side, and in a letter to -the \u2018Times\u2019 he rebukes the Bishop of London for his phrase \u2018conversion by order,\u2019 and asks, \u2018Is it too much to express n \u2018hope that the English public will leave \u201cunquestioned the inward motives which \u201care beyond their discovery and mo af- \u201cfair of theirs, and leave a lady, what- \u201cever be her valk, to settle so personal \u2018a \u2018matter as her reception into the * Church with her own conscience?The \u2018Times,\u2019 in its comment, says Princess Ena\u2019s conversion is an act which must be defended, if at all, on the ground that a change of religion is a matter that should be left, with princesses as with other people, to the individual conscience.It concedes, however, that mstinct which leads to protest is natural and ought to be respected.Father Vaughan\u2019s argument would be stronger if it were not for the incredible expressions to which the Princess is made to swear.There may be means of explaining these awsy to the individual conscience, but the meaning they are meant to convey to the simple is that tho Princess; who has presumably lived happily under Protestant doctrine, has suddenly, through love or otherwise, come to believe that all her Protestant pelatives are outside of salvation, that she grieves over her own previous lost condition, and that she abhors the \u2018sect\u2019 in which she has been brought up.The fact that these sudden and extraordinary convictions have come upon her at the moment of rising to a throne is at least lan interesting phase of her conversion.\u201cTMs extraordinary thing about it is thet such a wicked oath could be exacted from a young person supposed to be seeking the truth.\u2018There would seem to\u2019 be under the -proceeding the theory that what one swears to one believes, including a host of dogmas of which she knows nothing, whereas it is not likely the poor young lady has any distinct idea but that the church she is joining is that of ber husband, and should therefore\u201dbe hers.\u2018hat she believes what has just béen recited the world certainly does not believe, nor does it gain from the episode anything but abhorrence for such\u201d dampatory oaths.payee.SIMPLIFIED SPELLING.Mr.Andrew Oarnegie\u2019s Simplified Spelling Board hase already started its labore, and the results have been issued in two pamphlets.The first pamphlet or circular contains some crude arguments for spelling reform, the need for simplicity and saving of time and money, and a campaign is outhned to bring about .so Qesirable\u201d a thing.The second circular contains a list of three hundred words spelled in two or more ways, and the simplest form is urged in each case.The proposed changes are divided under tweaty heads, as follows :(\u2014 Rule: and with ae or e.esthetic 1.Words spelled Choose e, as in anesthetle, medieval, 2.Words epelled with dge-ment or -dg- ment.Rule: Omit e, abridgment, acknowledgment, judgment, and lodgment.3.Words spelled with -ed or -t, the preceding single coneonant being doubled before -ed (-pped.-ssed) and left single before

second rule has long privailed.The i SEI IVR PETE WE RE TUE TPE NE ET ET CAES grown in Canada.A es y third class looks much more of an innovation, and, vet, as the Simplified Spell ing Board points out, these are \u2018 genuine \u2018historical spellings, frequent and nor \u2018mal in English literature from Spen- \u2018 cer, Shakespere, and Milton to Tenny- \u2018son and Lowell.\u201d The Board also quotes as authority for various past tenses and partciples in it, Addison, Bacon, the Bible, Mrs.Browning, Bunyan, Burns, Collins, Cowley, Cowper, Defoe, Dryden, Fitzgerald, Goldsmith, Gray, Popz, Quarles, Scott, Swinburne, Walton, Whittier and Young.In spite of that, and while prest, dript, dipt, dropt, and distrest might.be generally accepted, at- ter a wide and influential crusade, it 1s to be feared that it will be long before kist will appeal to many.It is a word to be dwelt on more than that suggests; while blusht and washt, whatever their antiquz authority, are hardly phonetic.The present pronunciation would be better represented by d than by t.Rule four simp'\u2018y maintains the best cstablishad spelling, while five, six and seven are in their present observance largely the result of more or less recent spelling reform movements, though good old authority can no doubt be shown for them all.The same is the case with nine and.twelve, though these have made lees headway, and are confined to this continent.Fourteen was successfully introduced by Noah Webster, as also thirteen and seventeen with less general success.eleven, fifteen, sixtean and eighteen are, for the most part, convenient settlements of uncertain usage.Twenty is of recent artificial origin and has been accepted by some as an improvement, Nineteen, no doubt, proposes a good, though somewhat uncouth preference.Alto gether the first reforms suggested by the Simplified Spelling Board are scattered and mild ones.The Board acknowledges that these are only a beginning and that there are more reforms to be suggested in the future\u2014and probably they will be more radical.\u2014\u2014 PELEE IN ERUPTION.Pelee island, at the western end of Lake Erie, is in open revolt against the government of the Dominion.This island, as \u2018every schoolboy knows,\u201d is singularly blest by Providence.The climate is delightful, the soil exceedingly fertile, and the people industrious.Its chief .prqduéts are grapes and.tobacco, both of which are famous as the best It also produces all kinds of vegetables in abundance.It has an area of nearly thirteen thousand acres, being just about as big as Ile Per- rot, in Lake St.Louis, and has a population of about sa>ven hundred, all native Canedians of British stock.It should be the home of contentment, as it is of peace and plenty.But its great misfortune is isolation.It is about half way across Lake Erie, with a much more populous life on the southern shore than on the northern.Over against San- dusky harbor, in Ohio, there is a long mud bank without harbor.The traffic\u2014 freight and passenger\u2014between it and the mainland is not sufficient to pay a steamboat to ferry the eighteen miles to Leamington, in the county of Essex.And so the inhabitants are shut up, like so many Robinson Crusces, on their beautiful island.As they cannot sell their produce in the open markets, where they would enjoy the beno fits of competition among buyers, and cannot consume it, they are compelled to sell to local wine-making and tobacco manufacturing concerns for what they can get.Still, their surplus is constantly increasing, and they say they must have a ferry or they will declare for annexation to the United States.Mr.À.H.Clarke stated in the House of Commons the other day that they were In open rebellion, They demand that the Dominion Government shall either subsidize a boat to call at the island three times a week, or permit United States boats to convey freight and passengers to the Canadian shore.As a summer resort Pelee is unrivalled, Some Chicago millionnaires have a club-house on the island, which they occupy four weeks in the summer.But there being no regular means of transport, there are no other visitors, though it 15 only twenty-eight miles from Sandusky and eight from Putin Bay.A battle was fought on Pelee in 1837, when a party of rebel sympathizers invaded the island.These were met by the farmers and a detachment of soldiers, who defeated them, killing five, wounding fifteen, and drowning a hundred.It was a stiff fight, for several British soldiers were killed before the invaders were driven away.It Js a pity this record of loyal herdism | should ho libelled by a threat to hoist the stars and stripes.But have the islanders no other recourse?not do something for themselves?A hotel and steamboat company \u201cshould, with so many populous cities within easy distance, make their lovely isle a successful summer resort.The story about CL ale ROR i Pac LG er 7 Ten, yr Can they.PRCT |

a child produce a beaut:- ful tone by telling him his singing » bad, any more than you can make a sage of an idiot by calling him a fool\u201d It's like telling a child to \u2018sit up straight.\u2019 How much better to tell him to \u2018sit up tall,\u2019 and, likewise, how much better to tell the child, when: he has shouted tou loudly in singing, to \u2018take a long \u201csmell,\u201d as ot some beautiful violets.Do this, all you who have young human canaries to train, and see what fine results you will get.Don\u2019t puzzle the young mind with technical singing terms.Instead of telling him to \u2018hold\u2019 lus \u2018breath\u2019 after a long wnhalation, gently suggest that he \u2018listen\u2019 after inhaling a great \u2018smell\u2019 from the imaginary violets.In this way, says our guide to mei ody for the infantile, nature will en: nobled to \u2018set the muscles at the waist and cheek the flow of breath, while the child will be unconscious of its action\u2019 Again, don\u2019t be technical.Hear th.advice: \u2018Such suggestions as the following will do far more good than scientific terms in procuring the right tone production from the child: \u2018Do not sing a scowling tone.\u2018Do not sing a scolding tone.\u2018Do not sing a fish-horn tone.\u2018Sing with a pleasant face.\u2018Sing with a smile.\u2018Sing like the sweetest bird you ever heard.\u2018Sing a kindly tone.\u2018Sing as though speaking to your dearest friend.\u2018Sing a gentle, loving tone.\u2018Make your lips sing to you.\u2018Whisper aloud as though you wanted some friend in the farthest corner of the room to hear you.\u201d Do all these simple little things, dear children, our vocal guide promises, and the sweet: \u2018heard melodies\u2019 will flow unobstructad.It all appeals to us, for we had no such guidance in our earlier youth.\u2014New York \u2018Evening Post.\u2019 \u2014_\u2014 FAST TRAINS IN BRITAIN A correspondent writes as follows tn the New York \u2018Sun\u2019: In an article

TRAGEDY.\u2014 Two Men Arrested in Connection With the Death of Ida Ahern.RAOUL BRADLEY HELD, BUT MR.DOWLING CANNOT IDENTIFY HIM Raoul Bradley has been arrested in tonnection with the death of [da May Ahern, at Cote St.Paul.lt is stated that in a general way he answers to the description of the man in whose company the deceased was seen on lues- day atternoon, and also because of the fact that he had boarded at the house of Mr.Ahern, which he bad left some months ago, leaving an unpaid bill of about 340.lt is stated that this man had abused the generosity of Mrs.Ahern; that he was able, but unwilling, to work; and, because he made no effort to settle his board bill, Mr.Ahern had to order him out of the house.Bradley was arrested about four o\u2019colck yesterday afternoon, in the Montreal House, at the corner of King and Common streets, where he was residing.He was taken to the detective headquarters, and during the evening John Dow- ling went to the office, and on being confronted with Bradley, stated that he was not preparéd to swear that Bradley was the man whom he had assisted over the bridge with the deceased last Tuesday afternoon.Dowling told Chief Carpenter that he knew Bradley by sight, having previously come in contact with him while unloading cars at Mr.Redfern\u2019s mill, whére he was foreman.For this reason he thought that if Bradley had been the man who accompanied the child be would have recognized him at the time.Dowling further observed that both men were much of the same complexion, the only difference being in stature and wearing apparel.The man whom he met with the child did not appear to be quite so stout as Bradley.He wore 2 black coat and a black Fedora hat.Bradley last night had on a grey coat and a peak cap.So far as the pqlice have been able to investigate, the clothing he is wearing is all he possesses.Bradley is thirty-seven yeors of age, a naiive of Rimouski, and has lived in Montreal for several years.On bein questioned by Chief Carpenter he at frat denied, and then admitted, that he was in the neighborhood of Mr.Abern\u2019s house on Tuesday afternoon.He ex- lained that he had been to Cote & aul looking for work.It is stated that such a man was put out of Mr, Wards yard that afternoon, and Bradiey supe that Ward's wag one of the places he went to for work.He also applied at Mr.Grier's ydrd.: Two brothers named Laberge, whe kave a blacksmith's shop on Napoleon street, have informed the police that they ordered away from their premisez a man answering to the déscription \u2018the individual seen with the little gril.The investigations of the police have led to the knowledge that been working for the firm of 4.W.Poupart, contractors, at Maisouneuve.He had received a dollar and a half for a day and a half» work.This had been given on the order of Mr.Leahy, a foreman, who is engaged working on some dredges lying at.the western end of the harbor.When seen by the police the latter stated that he remembered Bradley going to him on Thursday afternoon and asking for his pay.He bad worked \"a day and a hal, leaving His work at nooa on Tucsday.At the time of his arrest Bradley was found in his room at the Montreal House, and when told that he was wanted he ae- companied the officers to the police Station without a murmur and without aak- ing any questions as to the reason of their visit.Un enquiry into the dntecedents of Bradley, the detectives have learned that he was formerly employed in the kitchen at the Hotel Dieu.He had worked there from March until August of last year.He was not at sll popular.In October he returned to the hospital as a patient, suffering from a tumor in his back.He said he had been struck by a piece of coal while at work on a boat.After an operation had heen performed he was able to leave the hospital.He is described as having been very eccentric jn his manner.It is known that he has also worked at Three Rivers, having Leen employed as a laborer about the convent.Mr.Abern states that during thé time Bradley boarded at his house he was very strange in his behavior.He would spend hours walking up and down the room, frequently stopping to write something on the wall.\"No one appesred to take any notice of him, and he had the appearance of a man who was tired of life.Mrs.Ahern says that Bradley used to drink heavily at times, but was not what one would term a drunkard.He did not appear to take much notice of the deceased.The police are still continuing to search the district.Yesterday afternoon another man was arrested, who in a general way answered the description of the man looked for.He willingly\u2019 accompanied the detectives to the police station, where he gave a satisfactory ae- count of himself, and was released after Te suspicion that Bradley might know something æbout the crime at Cote St.Paul on Tuesday becomes fainter as he is confronted by different witnesses who saw the deoeased child in company with a man walking along the canal bank.Several persons were at Chief Carpenter\u2019s office this morning, and they said they could not swear that Bradley was the man whom they saw with the child.Two litlte girls were confronted by Bradley in Mr.Carperter\u2019s office.Di rectly one of them saw him she fell in a dead faimt.The other girl was unable to identify him.Neither was her companion after she was restored to consciousness.Information reached Chief Carpenter this morning that a man answering the radley had | the decessod op Tuesday left.on a train from Bonaventure station on Wednesday evening.THE \u2018CANADA\u2019 : FOR PREVENTIVE MEASURES.Referring to the terrible death of little Jda Aherr, the \u2018Canada\u2019 says: \u2018Beings Likt the one who killed little Ida Ahern are evidently degenerates, and a degeneracy that constitutes a danger to society.The most\u201d severe repression cannot protect us against those monsters who, in the delirium of altohol or im the collapse of their mental faculties, no longer preserve the power of Tes- soning anf do not reckon the result of their acts.Society certainly has ths right to protect itself by placing the guilty person \u2018in the.physical imposai- bility of repeating the crime, but it strikes us that the matter is one per taining especially to mental pathology, and that, if we have the right to protect ourselves against the unconscious actr of violent insane people by placing them in asyl we should also bave |\u2018 the right to adopt measures of protection against the fits of horrible bes htinlisy that aleohol may produce in de- | generates of that kind.Society demands protection against such attacks, not only from justice which pumishes,\u201d but {\" also from science which foreseés and prevents.POLICE PROMOTIONS INDICATIONS THAT BEVERAL CHANGES WILL BE MADE BE FORE MAY 1.Chief Campeau has ent out an order to the eaptuing of all the city police sta: tions asking them to furnish him

arose over the reading of a letier forwarded to the City Counc) by the council of the Board of \u2018Trade, recommending that the property tax be increased to ome and one-quar- ter percent., Mr.Joseph Lamoureux, in speaking on the matter, advoeated that capital, which.was invested either in\u2019 nunufacturmg mdugtries or in financial operations should be compelled to contribute a jair share of the city\u2019s burdens.lt waë an easy matter, be said, for the gentlemen of the Board of Trade to urge ai advance in taxation upon real estate, inasmuch na no tax affected them so shghtly.ln the event of

THE GOLD MEDAL, The Provincial Government gives annually one gold medal, several silver and bronze medals, and a number of diplomas for general agricultural merit in connection with the management of farms throughout the Province of Quebec.The competition affects the character and orderliness of farm buildings, the improvement of land, the system of farming, the condition of fences, dweli- mg, barns, horse stables, cow stables, sheepfolds, poultry houses, silos, farming machinery and implements of all kinds, the system of drainage, roads, orchards, grain and root crops, flower garden, bookkeeping; in fact, everything that constitutes an ideal, up-to-date farming establishment.Judges appointed by the Department of Agriculture at Quebec visit the various farms throughout the province and inspect every detail in\u2019 connection with their operation, each oi the numerous departments receiving an adjudged number of points according to their merit.The report of the judg:ng for the year 1905 has just been issued by the.Department of Agriculture, and it announces that Mr.John Nesbitt, of Petite Cote, County of Hochelaga, has won tho highest award, the gold medal, with the diploma of \u2018Very great exceptional merit.\u201d Speaking of Mr.Nesbitt\u2019s success, the agricultural commissioners\u2019 official report says: \u2018Mr.Nesbitt did not win this medal without an energetic and persistent struggle.ln 1890 he won the silver medal, in 1800 he competed for the gold medal, but was beal>n by Mr.He again entered the competition in :1905, and his agricultural merit has at last been crowned with success.His gold medal and diploma b2ar witness to farming results as artistic as they are economical and profitable, and to uiiques- tionable agricultural abilities magniti- cently demonstrated by his farm and his crops.\u2019 .A visit to Mr.Nesbitt\u2019s farm, which is situated on the outskirts of the city -> RESIDENCE OF MR.of Montreal, in the municipality of

sitting of the House of Commons was taken up in a bitter assault upon the Public Works Department in connection with the collapse of the new tower that was added last winter ta the .western block of the departmental build- \"ings.The matter was brought up by the leader of the Oppositon, who thought it was time that the government came forward with some explanation of i the cause of this extraordinary mishap.The Minister of Public Works answered that he had no statement to make un- ; til he was furnished with the report of , the architects he bad engaged to look into the matter.The enquiry in question {vould be conducted by Mr.George S.Curry, of Toronto, and Mr.Hutchi- : son, of Moutreal.Mr.Andrew Broder (Conservative, of i Dundas) produced a sample of the material that had fallen out of this wall, remarking that any ordimary man could see for himself what it was worth, Mr.Broder asked the Minister of Public Works what he himself thought of the cemgnt in question, but failed to eheit any response.Mr.J.I.Armst ng (Conservative, of lost Lambton), who claimed to have {had large experience in building, gave the House his word that the material put into this tower was not of the Droper ; kind.Some of the fillings that ought to have bcen made of sand and Lime was [ composed, instead, of cinders.Mr.Peter Elson (Conservative, of | Middlesex), after looking over the

Russophobes at the refusal, and their tendency to regard it as an international snub.but other correspondents at Paris and Berlin represent the German attitude as being due to Germany\u2019s own serious need of money, both for the Empire and Prussia, the latter alone wanting $150,000,000, Germany's contribution to the Russian issue was | to have been nearly equivalent to this sum.The total issue will now be Te- duced by that amount and the operation confined to Paris, Loudon, New York, Brussels and Amsterdam.THE LATE KING CHRISTIAN MESSAGE OF SYMPATHY FROM CANADA GRACEFULLY ACKNOWLEDGED

NEVER TO SACRIFICE THE INTERESTS OF A DEPENDENCY TO EXCLUSIVE BRITISH INTERESTS.London, April 6.\u2014Lord Curzon, who was a guest at the Pilgrims\u2019 Club banquet at the Savoy Hotel to-night, made a striking speech on the greatness of imperial responsibilities.After a humorous opening, in which he described the best pilgrimage of his life as the one he made across the Atlantic to persuade an American pilgrim to continue her life pilgrimage in his company, he remarked that there was a more or less accidental connection between America and India.Recalling that Columbus's discovery resulted from his searching for the supposed eastern extremity of India, with the resultant eolecisms, the West Indies, and the North American Indians, but said that America could be described as a sort of historical and geographical afterthought of India.Great Britain had been engaged for 150 years in the same experiment that America is now under taking in another part of the same continent.He thought, despite the wide differences between the constitutions of Amer ica and India, that there was a greater similarity between the offices of the President of the United States and the Viceroy of India than vetween the offices of any other two great functionaries in the world.Having pointed out the resemblances, he said he was not sure that the Viceroy did mot exercise even goeat- er influence than the President, he having committed to his temporary charge 300,000,000 of people of various races, languages and religions.It was a stupendous problem for daily solution, involving the infinite mystery of the future.To realize to what an extent Great Britain is an Asiatic Empire, he should recall that three of every Liat come ® wen Sma.from ocular and chemical inspection to have less \u2018han one grain of lime lo a thousand of sand.Surely there must have been some slighting of work in order to pile up big profils or carelessness, or indifference on the part of the govern: ment Inspectors.Lo, ; Major Fowler, of King's, and Mr.W.H.Bennett, of Simcoe, both passed fron the subject of the collapsed tower into a coudemnation of groft in the Liberal Colonel Sam Hughes went so far as tu assert that if juslice was dealt out there would be many vacant seats on the Lib- cral side of the Chamber.i ; Mr.Bennett brought charges où gralt against Mr.James Conmee, the Liberal member for Rainy River, and was toi- lowed in a similar strain Hy Colonel sam Hughes.The latter accused Mr.Lon- mee cf controlling timber iights along the Canadian Northern, which the latter flatly denied.Colonel Hughes accused Mr.Conmee of getting a ten percent Takeoff on the building of the Algoma Central.Mr.Benentt brought up again Mr.Conmec\u2019s alleged connection with the Port Arthur dredging contract.Mr.Conmee categorically denied these accusations and compelled his opponents to retract.PRIVATE BILLS.The following private bills were Introduced: ; .To incorporate the Minnesota
