PEST.Paris, August 2.\u2014 The \u2018Matin\u2019 will to-morrow publish an interview had by its correspondent with the Emperor William, in which His Majesty said the yellow peril\u2019 was not the sole danger threatening the world, there also being the \u2018red peril.\u2018The heads of states\u2019 the Emperorÿ added.\u2018whether of absulute or consti-' tutional monarchies or republics, hour- Iv risk their lives.President Fallieres runs the same risk as the Czar, and President Roosevelt the same risks as King Alfonso.Those aiming at the abolition of all authority and order by government are thoroughly agreed, and those charged with the duty of making order respected are unfortunately disagreed.\u2019 _The correspondent says that at the Kiel regatta the Kaiser noticed that the French armored cruiser \u2018Leon Gam- betta\u2019 was not present.He thought the warship had been invited to be present during the regatta, and he said to the French naval attaché: \u2018It is a pity the \u2018Gambetta\u2019 is absant.Come, come, I know what this means.We are still suspected and are kept in punishment.\u201d The Kaiser enforced his remark by a genial laugh.Speaking to another naval officer the Kaiser said: \u2018It is freely reported that I am pleased when I learn that some fresh scandal has broken out in the French army.It is absolutely false.We Europeans live too closely together and our national lives are too intermingled for us not to feel an evil occurring to any single member.Any harm befalling the French army fills me with uneasiness.Anti-militarism is an international pest.The nation rejoicing thereat resembles a city rejoicing at an outbreak of cholera in a neighboring town.\u2019 NEWSPAPERS ARE ASKED TO \u2018KINDLY DISCONTINUE THE PRACTICE OF

the members of the committee vanishing rapidly.Ald.De Serres then said that he believed that negotiations should be concluded by the majority of the ; committee, and not by members of the | committee individually, as certain mem | ers were trying to do.Ald.J.B.A.Martin declared that! the \u2018Herald\u2019 had persisted in declaring or that the company has made to \u201c| | {that the committee were trying to close ~ The special gas committee appointed - to negotiate with the Montreal eat & Power Company to obtain a reduction in the price of gas and to report to the council, is getting itself into à mess.This was ovuvious at a meeting of the committee held yester- y afternoon\u2014the first meeting tnat bas been held open to the press.lhe proceedings resulted in a series of contradictions, demals, and reer:minations from beginning to end, and provided nothing in the shape of information for the public.They showed very cicariy, Lign., J however, that the members ot the committee are divided among themselves as to what has been done, what snould be done, and what they ought to tell the public.There were Ald, present Gadbo:s | (chairman), Ald.Proulx.White.Lari- viére, J.B.A.Martin.De Serres and L.À.Lapointe, with Mt.Jules Crepeau, secretary.Ald.Gadbois opened the proceedings by stating that the committee had held on.statutory meeting, on July 9, of which the minutes had been read.and that nothing had been done regularly since.Ald.Lariviére\u2014We have got a perfect right to continue pour parlers individually in our private capacity as embers of the special gas committee, § Ald.White\u2014The position seems to ne to be as follows, at present: We ad an official interview with the re- resentatives of the Montreal Light, eat & Power Company.when we dis- eussed the matter in general terms, and after that we went away.The commit- tec \u2018as a committee hae done ab-olutely nothing since.But in the meantime the members of the committee, individu- | aly, have been gathering information on j jits but vou will have to get ready qualify | \u2019 si g the matter in order to fully themselves to discuss it when the time came.But there has been nothing of- fiolal done, so far as I am aware.The members of the committee, individually, have no power to act.Ald.Gadbois proceeded to refer in detail to the various interviews with certain members of the special committee, which have appeared in the local ress.He mentioned in particular the interview which the \u2018Gazette\u2019 had published with Ald.J.B., A.Martin, and also that with the same alderman, published in the \u2018Herald.Ald.Lariviére wag understood to say, amid a noise that made it quite im- ossidle for anybody to hear what any- ody else was saying, that.if the Gas Company.accepted the conditions imposed by Ald.J.B.A.Martin he was quite satisfied.; Ald.Proulx\u2014Do not take any notice of anything that has appeared in the public press.; Ald.White\u2014You must give them full credit for enterprise.Ald.J.B.Martin\u2014I never said that I would give nothing to the \u2018Herald.\u2019 What the \u2018Gazette\u2019 says is of no value whatever to anybody.Ald.cide now is whether we are going to continue negotiations with the Gas Company or not.Ald.J.B.A.Martin\u2014The \u2018Herald\u2019 has represented me as making certain amendments which I never made to anybody.0 Ald.IL.A.Lapointe at this juncture ave the whole committee a thorough ressing down.I have a right to know what vou have done, he said.I have a right to know what the company said to the committee, and what the committee said to the company.Let us have no more of these hole-and-corner methods of deliberation and discussion.It is a matter for the public, and secrecv ie utterly useless in such a matter.Let us have everything open and above board.Secret deliberations tiations can do no good, especially when they are carried on in the way that vou have been carrying them on.Tell us what has been done.and if anvthing reasonable has been offered.either bv you or by the Gas Company.That is what we want to know.and we are entitled to know that, at any rate.You have been going about

A lopg time ago there lived in a bean- thick woods, an excellent, good Indian named Massasoit.Ie was very clever and kindly.A path went through the woods to a valley, where he had his camp, and this path was his front door.If any one came to see him and took another path they might be shot with An arrow.Massasoit liked to be dressed up.He beads and embroidered with birds and flowers wound round his waist.He often painted birds on his face.and his shawl was a red and yellow blanket.He walked very straight with his head erect, as though he owned all the land where he lived, and indeed he did; he was very rich in land.As Grandma said this she, toon, straightened up and shook her head and remembered they used to tell the children in her day to walk \u2018straight as an Indian.\u2019 World Wide, with a splendid selection of articles from the World\u2019s Greatest Journals tiful country, where there were dark | © THE MONTREAL DAILY WITNESS \u2014 \u2014 l Get What You Ask For! | HERE Is a Reason\u2014 Why the Good People of America buy Cascarets as Every second some cne, somewhere, is Buying a little Ten\u2014Cent Box of Cas : .Carets.I'hey found the whole family working.1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6\u201460 times to the Minute, 60 Minutes to the Hour, 3600 Boxes an Hour, 36,000 Boxes a Day of Ten Hours, 1,080,000 Boxes a Month, and then some.Think of 1t\u2014226,000 People take a Cascaret tablet every day.Millions use Cascarets when necessary.The Judgment of Millions of Bright Americans is Infallible.They have been Buying and Taking Cascarets at that rate for over Six years.a It is not an Experiment, not an Accident or Incident, but a sound, Honest Business, based on Time-Tried-and-Tested Merit, never found wanting.There is a Reason, * * * Cascarets are the implacable foe of All Disease Germs;

\u2018As they rested they talked about the country and they all agreed that if they could buy some of the land they would come here to live; so they started up all together and went to find Massasoit and ask him to sell them some land.\u2018They walked a long way.but as last came to the wood and to his path and called out.\u2018Howdydo, Massasoit?He heard them and called out \u2018Hoo-oh.\u2018Then he came out and shook hands, but he did not speak much of the English language.So they had a cane and they marked off a large square on the ound and made motions with.their ngers that they wished to buy land; but as he never had sold any land he could not make out what they meant by the square place on the ground.\u2018There wns in the camp at this time an Indian named Susamen, who was called \u2018the praying Indian\u2019 because he had been with ur.Eliot, the missionary, and he talked English very well.So Massasoit went a little war into the wood and called him up.Then he came out and shook hands all round and was very glad to see the white folks in Massasoit s country.\u2018After Susamen understood the square of ground he explained to Massasoit that if the white folks could buy land of him to plant on they would come there and live.Massasoit was pleased and | smviled ever so much all over his face, and said they might take a patch just as well as not, and he was going to make them a present of it.But Susa- men told him as winter would soon be here he should have some pay.So the white folks asked for a plot of eight miles square, and they gave him ten strings of white beads in a basket and wore a row of feathers in his back hair! that came up on top of his head and: great round moon earrings were in his | | ears.A wide, handsome belt made of | he told Susamen that \u2018he was well satisfied\u201d but thought he should have \u2018a coat more.\u2019 These heads were regular Indian money and were called \u2018ten fathoms of Wampum.\u2019 {To be continued.) =\u2014=\u2014p\u2014=\u2014\u2014 \u2014 \u2014\u2014\u2014 - \u2014 rm mom DIVINE BREATHINGS.FRIDAY, AUGUST 3.WHAT IS THE SABBATH FOR?The highest good of human nature.It was made for man.(Mk.ii.27.) A _periédic rest a necessity for all animal life, hence beasts of labor were to share in the seventh day rest.Over fifty years ago the omnibus companies of New York found, that their horses, by continuous daily work, soon broke down and became uscless.They were advised to let them run only six days a week.They sot Apart a certain number.which were rall- ed \u2018sixth day horses,\u201d that is they rested on Saturday and did the Sunday work of the other horses, which were thus freed from seventh-day labor.The result proved the value of the seventh day rest to horses.The Sabbath was pot originally set apart as a day of worship.It was made for bodily rest for laboring man and animals.Those who pursue their daily labor from month\u2019s end 'o month's end are shortening their lives, besides, while living.they are destroying the strength needed for the efficient doing of the work they have to do.The workingmen of France, where Sunday labor has been the rule, are now demanding the Sunday rest.The day's rest is a neceseity to all workers, be they merchants.mechanics or railway employers.The Christian use of the day is another matter.Change of occupation is rest and turning from bodily labor to apiri- tual enjoyment is a blessed rest to body and- mind.To break the Sabbath law is to ein against the body and against God.; DAILY TEXT.August 3.Faolish talking and jesting, which are not convenient.\u2014Eph, v., 4, A PRETTY GOWN.All the shop windows.in town are full Of silk and cotton and gingham and wool.\u2018But none of them shows a gown so gay As the one Mrs.Humming-Bird wears to-day.; \u2018Tis the very same fashion her grandmother wore, And hasu\u2019t a #æam or a pucker or gore; The sun doesn\u2019t fade it, the ran doesn't spot, And iN just the thing, whether chilly or hot.\"Tia a perfect fit and it won\u2019t wear out.But will last her as long as she lives, no doubt.\u2014Ex.Losing H ai you can stop it quickly, too!

The news of the mutiny on board the armored cruiser \u2018Pamvat Azova,\u201d off the Esthonian coast.is fraught with enormous possibilities.vessel rose and killed and four officers.United States Ambassador Meyer received a despatch from the American consul at Reval sayinz that the \u2018Pamy- at Azova' entered that port this afternoon with the red flag at her mast head.Should this cruiser, under the flag of the mutineers, sail northward and appear in the presence of the main squadron in the gulf of Finland, the loyalty of the crews of these vessels, perhaps, would be put to a stronger test than they could stand, Although the admiralty claims that the squadron off Sveaborg did not waver in its allegiance, there is something mysterious about the reports of their actions, which warrants the suspicion that all is not right aboard.Only two ships fired on the mutinéers, the others remaining on the commander IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT DUKE OF DEVONSHIRE SAYS THE LORDS WILL FIGHT THE

arbitrators in the trouble between the Street Railway and its men over the employment of ul- lezed strike-breakers.handed out thuir decision to-day.It was claimed by the men that the railway gave some of its employeés leave to go to Winnipeg to break a street railway strike there; on « ronto they were re-mployed by the company.The other union men on the railway resented this, thus there was some hustling of the strike-breakers and al leged Insults wo them, resulting m a number of dismissals by the company.A strike was then theatened here, Two arbitrators were appointed by each side and they, failing to agree, called in Mr.Justice Mabee, as fifth arbitrator.Today a decision was given signed by-all the arbitægtors to the effect that she company has the inherent right of æn- gaging and removing employees in their discretion subject only to any special agreement and to any laws of the land respecting such employment.The cam- pany was justified in declining to dismiss men alleged to have participated in the Winnipeg strike.After listening to the evidence, however, the board believes it to be in the best interests of all concerned that the company should reinstate to their former positions all the men dismissed.The company bears the expense of its own, and the men that of their arbitrators, and each side bears ome half the expense of the fifth arbitrator.FOOTBALL SS.'KENSINGTON' I'EFEATS THE Y.M.C.A.An interesting match was played last evening between the SS.\u2018Kensington\u2019 and the Y.M.C.A.football clubs, resulting In a win for the sailors by threc goals to one.The Y.M.C.A.kicked off, and soon began to attack, but were kept out by the fine goalkeeper of the steamer.Then the vis!- tors made a nice run down the field, and from a pass from the right wing man, the inside left sent through a good shot, completely bafiing the home goalkeeper.This reverse put the homesters on their mettle, and after renonted attacks, Kin- loch sent in a finé shot, netting the ouly goal scored hy the Y M.C A.No further scores were added during the first half, although the SS.\u2018Kensington\u2019 looked like obtaining a lead on one occasion, but the situation was relieved Ly full back Wilson.For some time after the second half of the game had commenced, the Y.M.C.A.kept up a continued attack on thelr op- ponets\u2019 goal, and had hard luck in not scoring.The goalkecper, however, was equal to all the dangerous shots, whilst the other shots needed no one to keep them out of the net.Then the sailors took the Dall into the home territory.and from a free kick, just outside the penalty area, the inside right received the ball, and sent in a second goal for tbe visitors.Again the Y.M.C.A.pressed the sailors, tut still failed tec score.Another run down the field, and then a corner kick, resulted in the third eoal for the SS.Kensing- ton,\u201d the outside right heading the ball through the posts.Soon after thls time was called and a very pleasant game came to a close.Ox- ing to the absence of ths referee, who had agreed to take charge of thc game, one of the steamship company very kindly took his place.SENIOR GAME

Aug.2.\u2014Buffalo won both games of a double header with Montreal here today, and may, as A result, succeed in landing the pennant, for these results have widened the breauù between Buffalo and Jersey City to 32 points.Leroy pliched in the first four innings of the first game, during which time ten hits were Fiade off him and four runs, He played an apathe- tlc game, and it was not until Pappalau had replaced him fn the box that the game began to look at all like serious baseball.Brockett, in the box for Buffalo, pitched one of the finest games ever seen here, and seemed almost unplayable ~ the Royals after the first inning, wapen a streak of wildness allowed the visitors to score., With two men out in the first\u2014Nattress and Gettman\u2014White went to first on an ;
