night, had a bag slung over his shoulder.The bag, when opened, proved to contain brass fittings to the value of $75.When they appeared before Judge Leet, in the -Arraignment Court this morning, on \u2018a \u2018suspicion of theft, charge, the men emphatically denied the theft of the brass fittings, and stated that they had given them willingly over to the constable.The latter said the prisoners

the Metropolitan Parks\u2019 Commission this morning.First they decided to recommend that the City Council buy certain properties at the foot of Mount Royal Park.Were these bought by private citizens, buildings of a type which might spoil the general effect of the park might be erected, they feared.- They also proposed the establishment of two driveways, one on each side of the new acqueduct.Besides this the Commissioners had a somewhat lengthy informal talk, in which they decided it would be wise to make a trip to Boston and New York with a view of studying what has been done to better parks there.WAS GIVEN SEND-OFF.Winnipeg, September 26.\u2014Joseph Thorson, of Iceland, Manitoba, a Rhodes scholar, who left to-day for New College, Oxford, was given a medal and supper

Canada It Will, it is Declared, Satisfy Britain, Toronto, Sept.26.\u2014 Sir Alfred Moritz Mond, MP, Liberal for Swansea, South Wales, one of the exponents of free trade principles in the British Isles, arrived in Toronto last night on his way to Inspect the properties of the Mond Nickel Company, Limited, at Sudbury.\u2018I was asked in New York, before 1 left, how reciprocity between the United States and Canada would effect the relations of Canada to Great Britain,\u201d said Sir Alfred to a newspaper representative.\u2018I could not say anything about Canada, but as for England, I say that anything that was for the benefit of Canada would be for the benefit nf Great Britain.If the Canadian people thought reciprocity would be of benefit we would not feel that we had any right to stand in the way.Anything that makes the consuming portion of Canada wealthier would be good for us, because you could and would buy more things from us.I must say I was surprised at the interview given by Sir James Whitney, the Premier of Ontario, in I[ondon, practically to the effect that if Great Britain did not hurry up and do something soon, Canada would go, and that it would be \u201call up\u201d with the British Empire.In the first place I was surprised at a man in a responsible position making such a statement, because It is not the way to get Great Britain or Canada to do anything.Secondly, it seemed the more extraordinary because the Premier of the Dominion was making, at that time, speeches in which he stated emphatically, and which I understood was the feeling of the country, that Canada did not ask, and would not ask, Great Britain to do anything for them, and that their loyalty was not based on self interest.INTERESTING CRITICISM.\u2018Free trade revival in the West had been a matter of great interest in Great Britain and tariff reform papers had gone so far as to violently attack Canadian free traders on the score of their loyalty.The \u2018Saturday Review\u2019 had said Sir Wilfrid Laurier was always suspected, - and the \u2018Morning Post\u2019 remarked that in the old days a bill of attainder would have been \u2018brought against the people making | these speeches and they would have been dealt with summarily.Others said that the whole agitation was being engineered by American annexa- tionists.This kind of criticism would \u2018have never been heard of in the days before the colonies were brought into the battlefield for mere party purposes.1 think He can be nothing ore dangerous, to the.interests of \u2018an united Empire than to drag\u2019 questions\u2019 affecting the self-government of the colonies into English or Canadian party politics.This is one of the inevitable dangers which thinking people must forsee when they start on this line of so-called bonds of Empire, consisting of mutually taxing each other\u2019s goods and making trade returns the touchstone of cordial relations.The better way is to be found in such ways as SIR ALFRED MOND, Trocs TIRE hte happy visit of the Queen's Own regiment to England.It was a great success in every sense of the word, and they made a fine impression over there.\u2019 FREE TRADE ENTHUSIASM.In speaking of the benefits that would accrue from free trade, Sir Alfred said that he thought it was easier to get the people enthused over free trade than over a low tariff.The first was a great moral principle, while the other was simply a question of degree.Cobden laid down as a fundamental principle the right of every citizen of a country to exchange the products of his labor wherever he could.But if it is simply a question of the difference between three and five on the tariff, the experts in the different lines of manufacture can present figures of statements of cost which would be hard to combat.FREE TRADERS ARE SUCCESSFUL.\u2018A curious thing in Great Britain, asserted Sir Alfred, \u2018is that the really efficient manufacturers are free traders and the others not.The heads of the largest industries who are members of Parliament in Great Britain are free traders.It is a funny thing that Harmsworth, who in Great Britain wants protection, in Newfoundland wants everything for his mills admitted free of duty.\u2018A point that is not sufficiently recognized in Canada in this tariff reform agitation in Great Britain is that the proposal is \u2018that there should be a considerable duty on Canadlan flour though not on wheat.The Canadian people have to take their choice between a free entrance to the British market as it is now Or a semi-taxed entrance.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 INDIAN WOMAN KILLED.That Anna Beauvais, an Indian woman, was deaf and did not hear the approach of the train that killed her was the evidence at an inquest held by Coroner McMahon at Caughnawag: on Saturday.~~ A NOTABLE NEWSPAPER.The Montreal \u2018Witness\u2019 has reached its fiftieth anniversary as a daily newspaper.During all these years the \u2018Witness\u2019 has been a telling force in shaping the life and the destiny of the country, and to-day it is stronger and brighter than ever.The \u2018Witness\u2019 has achieved a notable success in the journalistic field because it has always been true to its best ideals.A Liberal in politics, it has stood for the principles of enlightened Liberalism rather than for party or faction.lt has never been afraid to express its views, even when those views appeared to be in conflict with those of its own party leaders for the time being.It has not hesitated to criticise its own party when it felt the party to be in need of criticism, But its criticism, whether of friends or of opponents, has always been sincere and intelligent, No one doubts the honesty of the \u2018Witness.\u2019 And the policy which has governed its editorial page has extended to the whole paper.Its news pages are clean and reliable, and even its advertising columns are carefully guarded.The success of the A finess is a striking proof that success is possible in journalism in this country without sacrifice of self-respect or of high ideals.The \u2018Witness\u2019 is as far as possible from being a party organ; yet it is one of the great forces of Liberalism in Canada.The reputation it has won for honesty and independence makes its utterances doubly effective.There is need for such journalism.The parties need it; the country needs it, Liberai- ism, especially, needs plain and honest speaking, to give freshness and vitality to its teachings.Liberalism must be a living, progressive force, otherwise it will cease to be Liberalism; and the cause of Liberal- Ism can receive no better service from 'journalism than the free and independent support of papers like the \u2018Witness\u2019\u2014The oo ntinel- Review, Woodstock, nt, FFE P PEEP IPI 4 IHEP PIPPI PPE EE IPI H HEP P PEPE PEE SHEET EPH I PEEP P PPP 43 P33 +444 HIPPIE

brokers are happy, or at least a great many of them are.Business on \u2018the Stock Exchange is active, and the amount of trading that is passing each day is keeping them very busy and incidentally as one of them put it this morning, we are making a fairly good living these days.Brokers, however, are not always happy, or are they always busy.They have to put up with periods of depression and slowness of trade, and during such hardships as they term them, money Is generally scarce or at least supposed to be, while rates are excessive.However, such is the reverse to-day.There is plenty of money in circulation, and for horrowing purposes, and brokers are congratulating themselves on the fact that they are now in a position through the generosity of certain large private corporations to borrow all the funds they require for stock market purposes at 4 1-2 percent, A large amount at this figure is being loaned out at in Montreal to-day.Leading Broker Says That The Stock Market Will Go Higher-Wall St.Influence Mr.George Smithers, of Messrs.Burnett & Co., speaking of the local stock market conditions this morning.said that Montreal might expect a broad market, with some periodical fluctuations.At present the market is active and healthy, and he expected to see stocks firmer after the excitement attending the Power and Montréal Street merger shall have passed away.Money how is plentiful and fairly cheap.Conditions here looked, he said, as if Montreal brokers and investors had.almost forgotten Wall Street, and that Canadian stocks just now were practically independent of New York influences.tr Duluth-Superior Co.Fine Increases Duluth-Superior Traction Company comparative weekly statément of gross earnings for September follows \u2014 1010.1909.First week.$.23,172.4C

Lost by 14 Goals to 2.VICE-REGAL PARTY THERE.Earl Grey Presented Cup Given by Back River Club\u2014Many Society Leaders There.The most interested and appreciative Froup of spectators at the Ranelagh Canada polo match on Saturday at Back River was the vice-regal party, consisting of Earl and Countess Grey, Lady Evelyn Grey, Lord Lainborough, T.ord Lascelles and Captain Newton.For the greater part of the game they were leaning on the railing, watching every move of the clever horsemen, and applauding every point of the game, At the opening.the Canadians showed themselves more aggressive than in the previeus day's match, and time nd again Mr.Sexsmith and Mr.Mac- dougall came Within an ace of scoring, but Mr.F.A.Gill, the English back, would manage to frustrate them even when the ball was apparently right between the posts.Fortune smiled upon them, however, just before the finish of the first period, and after a splendid run up the field with every other man after him as hard as the ponies could carry them, Mr.Sex- smith scored, which made both teams even, Lord Rocksavage having gained the first goal in the match.In the next period both Mr.F.Grén- fell and Lord Rocksavage scored for the visitors, and it was nat until the third period that Mr.Sexsmith scored Canada\u2019s second and last goal.The flnal score gave the Ranélagh men 14 to Canada's 2, byt the severe beating was nct grudged by the local men, and probably the polo they saw played will be the finest lésson in the same of games they have ever received.\"The visitors moved like well drilled troops: they .rode up the fieid strictly in line at regular intervals, wheeling as if on the word of com- nand; if number one missed the ball © galloned straight on to the point where he knew number two would it il, whilst three and four galloped 1 in support of two ready to follow IP, Or reverse, no matter what hap- rened, It was the most wonderful ispl- of team work the Montrealers nad ever seen, and they lost all count f tire score in watching the work of \u2018neéponies and their masters.The \u201complete mastery of the riders and the +Imost human knowledge of the game he ponies appeared to have, were de- nonstrated just before the final bell sng, when Mr, Sexsmith made an- nther desperate attempt to score.He \u2018ad taken the ball in thé centre of ne field, and had it well in hand with is nearest opponent some distance ff; the light was failing and it was impossible to see who the Englishman vas, but better mounted than Mr.sexsmith he reached him, turned as \u2018rough on a pivot, picked the ball \u2018rom beneath the ponies feet with a \u2018ack-handed twist and saved almost rom between the posts.It was as fever a piece of work as took place iring the game, and only the most xpert horsemanship seemed to save collision, Co At the end of play Earl Grey presented the Ranelagh men with a cup - presented by tLe Back River Club in | mémory of the first visit of an English polo team to Canada.\u2018It is,\u2019 he sald, \u2018a great privilege to.be present and watch your splendid playing, and it 1s a privilege to be able to present you with this cup\u2019 His Excellency then annobnced that Mr.Walter Gren- fell, a brother of the two (Grenfélls, who were playing in the Ranelagh team, had presented a cup to be emblematic of the Canadian Polo championship.The cup is a facsimile of the famous Warwick dup, and.will bé competed for at an annual tournament, which will be open to the world, but will be played alternately in Montreal and Toronto.\u2018This,\u2019 he concluded, \u2018is intended to encourage polo In Canada, and also to encourage the breeding of your clever Canadian polo ponies.A little while ago a man bought a pony for a small sum in the streets of Calgary.He took it over to England and tried it at polo, with the result that in a short timé he sold it for $500; soon after it changed hands again for $1,000, and at a price higher than this it was sold and ridden In the National polo championships in England this year, when it was sbown to me.If (Canada can breed one polo pony like that it can breed many, and I hope it will\u2019 His Excellency then called for cheers for the\u2019 Ranelagh men, which were heartily responded to.Amongst the spectators were practically all the leaders -of Montreal Society, manÿ of the members of the

completed in the Arena, and evérything is in readiness for the opening of the Autumn Horse Show to-morrow evening.The orchestra that has been arranged for are to provide special appropriate music, and it is expected that the opening performance will have a large attendance.- .On entering the Aréna the spectators will be struck with the appearance of the place, for instead of entering a large empty looking Arena, they will step into a rustic arbor.A false ceiling of green lattice work will hide the iron girders, while huge candelabra suspended in the centre of the Arena, and bedecked with thousands of purple and white morning glories, will give the whole a rich and warm effect.These are to be illuminated with 250 electric lights each, while over two thousand electric ' incandescent lights will] make the whole interior one glow of lights.In contrast to the green lattice work and overhangings, the:boxes are decorated in a deep rich cloth.of red.With these exceptional novelties and other entirely new arrangements thig fall show is promising to be one the like of which has never before been seen in Montreal and Will take considerable invention to Surpass.All lovers of horsés will zgres with the management on this score when they, é have attended the first night of the five days of the Horse Show, lasting until Saturday evening.ROUND THE WHIRLPOOL Bobby Leach Made Niagara Trip

inspected their nalls and insisted on these being trimmed, while the only pair of scissors were too small In the handles to be used, so that it was necessary for one of the sides- men to turn manicurist.he two preliminary bouts were between St.Louis and onferand, in the 1.15 pound class, being three rounds of six minutés, and Barrette and Beau- champ in the 145 pound class; both bouts were

favor, not to say prosperity, has not been reached without struggles, courage and heart aches on the part of its early supporters and later administrators.An organizaton that began its work in a private house, has been burned out more than once and had its home sold by the sheriff before becoming a firmly established institution, cannot fail to have an interesting and inspiring history.The

facilities nominated by the government.Mr.Leeds severed his connection with this school in 1819, and Mr.Alex.Skakel, of the Classical and Mathematical School, was chosen as his successor.For more than twenty-five years Mr.Skakel presided over this the first government school for superior education in Quebec.+ During the last three years of his principalship the school was really in charge of the Rev.Mr.Brown.Mr.Skakel died in 1848.He delivered the first series of lectures ever given for the benefit of jthe Protestants jn\u2019 Montreal on scientific subjects.This \u2018brought him into contact with the Rev.Mr.Sommerville and his associates, the founders of the Natural History Society of Montreal.\u2018In 1842 circulars were issued to the Protestant citizens advocating a further advance in the interests of higher education and proposing the establishment of a High School.The Edinburgh High School was selected for the model of the new school.: A board of nine provisional directors wasappoint- ed and in 1843 the organization was completed.The directors were increased to twenty-two, with five referees Tesident in Edinburgh.The tion of the board of governors of Mc- Gill
