Spectacles in the Courts Reveal the Ravages \u2018of Cocain the Insidious Ravisher of Young Lives.: 4.dy: faa During the past few days nearly fifty men and women have been arrested on various charges by the police in that part of Montreal, known as Chinatown.\u2019 In the majority of cases vagrancy has been the charge laid against these people.been arrested as drunk, others as sireet-walkers, still others as venders of cocaine.They are all denizens of that strange portion of the social life of ais city, known as the underworld.T ey are cre ER ter Et WoTst \u201caves \"OF thn sities, the men who live at night and sleep by day, the people whose real names have sunk into oblivion, who go by allases or queer nick-names that might seem exaggerated in the most melodramatic of yellow-backed novels.Unclean in body and mind, they pick up their living where they can, only working under the direst necessity.They are the paratsies of Montreal.Détective Gorman made the first big haul, When he brought before Judge Leet, on Saturday eleven boys, ind a young man named Bernard roley, in whose room on Laguchetire street east he found them, who was charged with selling cocaine.William Durkin and Bernard Smith, said that they had been asked by a stranger on st.Lawrence Boulevard, to show him where Foley lived.They had Just taken bim there.The detective, who made the arrests was of the opinion however, that the man had been enticed to the place, rather than asking iv be taken there, as he had quite a oll of money.\u2018The other boys all stated that they were in having a friendly chat, and all denied that they were in the habit of using cocaine.Their looks belied their statements however, for the marks of the drug.had been left on more than one young face.Two of them admitted having stolen cloth and shoes, which were found in thelr possession, and Foley, with the woman, Emily Decarle, who lives with him, was arrested on a charge of receiving stolen goods.All the boys with the exception of Fred.Butler, who was allowed to go after a severe lecture, were remanded until Wednesday for enquete.\u2019 Foley and the woman will also come up on that daw.Detective Gorman had also arrested a young man named Ovila Trudeau, whom he found hdlf-crazed from tha effects of .cocaine, morphine and opium.'The young man appeared in court before Judge Leet this morning, and was remanded until Wednesday, that some inquiries may be made.Morphine, cocaine and opium, with the paraphernalia necessary to each were produced.The youth showed all the Several of them have symptoms of one who snuffs cocaine, and then because it prevents sleep, eats or smokes oplum or injects morphine with a hypodermic syringe.The twitching muscles, the enlarged glassy eyes, the restless eternal movement of the hands all told a hopeless story.Lieutenant Charland, with Constables Martin, Daoust and St.George descended upon the narrow streets of the low quarter on Saturday night and assisted in the work of ridding the streets of this class.One after an- morning, characters well-known to the entwined in this part of the city.There was little Joe Champagne, harmless, yet not mentally right, fast in the grip of the drugs.His old mother, to whom he gives most of what little money he is able to earn, appeared and begged for his freedom.The young fellow'\u2019s head reached but a little over the top of the dock.He will come up on Wednesday next.Clara Groule.an elderly woman, with a voice like a young girl, protested that she was not a street walker.She was allowed to go on suspended sentence, and her really kindly face became wrinkled with tears.Dissipation had left no mark on her.Next was Emilia Duclos, a very different type.Vagrancy was the charge, and there was no reason for libertw.Her record is old.Drink, drugs and the immoral life she has led have made her an old woman, while she is yet Ie She will spend two months in ail.\" The list went on, and the faces, all marked in the same fdshion passed by for a moment.Agnes Kelly was câlled.She had been called many fimes before.As she stood at the | dock she began to cough.To and tro .she rocked as the pains racked her.\u201cWhen she removed her handkerchief, \u2018she did it carefully that no one might see the red stain.It is sald that she has part of one lung left.At the hospital, where she applied for admission, she was not allowed in.Therefore she\u2019 went and called on a friend, they had a few drinks and she never reached home.She was given 15 days in jail.John Campbell's mother, a very respectable old lady, said that her boy never gave trouble until he started taking cocaine.The boy was in the dock, 2 self-confessed vagrant, a boy with a brow that denoted brains.He will serve three months, and may be able to break away from the drug.There were others, many others.Some were sent to Jail, others were remanded.There will be more yet.The police have not finished, and there are hundreds of these creatures, pitiable and yet culpable, who are making crime and vice easy.OPPOSE \u2018RULE BRITANNIA CADETS \u201cFOR CORONATION Children of American Settlers in West Object to British Anthems, ER ) Calgary, Nov.21.\u2014At the Technical Education Commission's meeting here thers was incidental evidence given as 12.trouble over the singing of British patriotic songs in the schools, where here were children of United States settlers.Inspector Boyce, of Red Deer, in reply to Dr.Bryce, said that some trouble had arisen in respect to the singing of British patriotic songs, such as \u2018Rule Britannia,\u2019 in the rural; districts.Americans did not mind so much Canadian songs, but feeling arose when purely British songs were sung.\u20181s the singing wf these songs insisted on?asked the

session of the Municipal Council to-day, Mayor Nathan complained that interested hotelkeepers abroad, especially im the United States and Switzer- \u2018land, had given currency to exaggerated reponts of the cholera epidemic in Italy, thus serving the lower, inter ested motives of the Clericals, who wish to detract from the success of the festivities in .1911 in celebration of ital of United Italy.\u2019 Considening the influx of people from the provinces to the capital, it was impossible, the Mayor said, to avoid sporadic cases in Rome, but measures had been adopted to isolate the sick and prevent contagion, with the result that in four months there had been but twenty three cases, with eleven death, in the city, lesser number than had occurred in Berlin, Vienna and Budapest.Mr.Nathan referred once more, but briefly, to his controversy with the Vatican, and hinted at a possible connection between the amtificially spread fears of cholera and \u2018the fears trumpeted in the name of the health of the soul, which mean war against Rome and the patriotio manifestations of 1911.OO * COUGHED IN CHURCH.Unique Case Heard in Hamilton Police Court.Hamilton, Ont.,

who \u201cwas crossing the street with.two other little girls and was crushed to death by a street car on the corner of St.Denis and Roy streets, on Saturday morning, at 11.30.There were two cars approaching the crossing \u201cat the directions, and the children became ¢onfused.The little Gilbert girl ran in front of the car going north, and before.the car could be stopped she was under it and crushed by the front motor.In | order to release the body it was ne- cessi.ry to jack up the car; the child was \u201cthen carried into Prevost\u2019s drug store, where a brief examination showed that she had probably been killed instantly.: From the evidence.given at the inquest this morning it seems that the child fell with her feet toward the fen- dèr, which rode over her body and allowed it to get underneath the motor.The little gir! was the youngest of tiree children of Mr.W.Gilbert, residing at 16 Rivard street, and who is clerk in the office of the Light, Heat and Power Company.' CUT HIS THROAT Ex-Policeman Despondent Because Out of Work.William Prince, said to have been a member of the London police force, was found with.his throat cut and a gash.in his wrist late on Saturday night in the yard in the rear of club on St.Vincent street.\u2018 The employees of the club heard his \u201cmoans and sent to the Central police station.Constables Bourgie, Wells and Richmond went over and found him with blood rapidly flowing from the wound and the knife beside him.The Notre Dame ambulance was called and the dying man was taken to -that institution.Price, it.seems, has been in this country some four months.He is 47 vears of age, and lived at the Andrews Home, Belmont Park.He had been out of employment since Thursday, and seemed downhearted.to WAS BORN IN ST.PETER\u2019S.Felix Chenier, Former Member of Manitoba Legislature, Dead.: Winnipeg, Nov.21.\u2014Mr.Felix Che- nier, dean of the Manitoba Civil Service, and a former member of the legislature, is dead, aged 68.He was a native of St.Peter's, Que, and at one time practiced law at Lachute.arr IDENTIFIED \u201cTWICE.Man Killed By Train Was Not A.Guilbault, but Joseph Lalonde.Joseph Lalonde, whose home was in Cornwall, was the young man who was struck by a train on the Camadian Pacific Railway tracks at Blue Bonnets a week ago yesterday and died Wednesday in the Royal Victoria Hospital.While the young man was unconscious in the hospital a woman called there and identified him as Armande Guil- bault, of Papineau avenue.\u2018When he died she could not be located, and did mot call at the hospital again.The fbody was removed to the morgue, \u201cwhere it was identified on Saturday as that of Joeph Lalonde, of Cornwall.| Teaders in the past.week, the \u201cStatrol vue dict wecidental death: in the case of OPPORTUNITY THROWN AWAY BY UNIONISTS British Organ States Party Failed to Understand the Nation.COUNTRY WANTED SETTLEMENT.\"Only, at Best, Hope to Gain Time.= London, Nov.21.\u2014In these days of © | bitter political animosity it is diffi cult to obtain -a-general estimate of the situation \u2018which is not colored bw pertisan prejudice, but in Saturday's Statist,\u201d which, \u2018though non-political, is usually found to take the conservative view prevalent in financial cir cles, there is published a leading ard ticle which accurately sums up the the political camps.; The \u2018Statist\u2019 condemns the strange incapability of the Unionist leaders ta understand {he present feeling of the nation.The country wanted both par ties to settle their purely partisan differences by consent.It was clearly to the interest of the Unionist Party to meet the .wishes of the country.The \u2018Statist\u2019 adds: : \u2018The humiliations of the South African war, the incapacity of the Bal« four Government to reform the armyy and Internal \u2018dissension had so lowered the Unionist Party in public estimation that it was defeated most ignod miniousiy in 1905, \u2018Even then it failed to understand why it suffered such utter disaster, It proceeded to drum out all its members who refused to support tariff reform.At the éhine time it vegged on the House of Lords to a course of conduct which ended in a second defeat less; than a year ago.Even two defeats following one ancther so rapidly failed to open the eyes, of the Unionist] leaders to the mistakes .they had] committed; for while they admitted; that last January's election made it incumbent on them to pass the budget, they denied that it in any way gflected their policy in regard to the \u2018As a result they deliberately threw away.the great opportunity offered to them by the conference,\u2019 THE DANGER OF THE LORDS.;.After pointing out how.the Liberals Vhave outmanoeuvred\u201d the Unionist n alternative administration.The House of Lords, in other times, did not belong to one particular party.Gradually it has come to be so predominantly Unionjst that a Liberal administration cannot pass any legislative measures which are - disliked by its opponents sufficiently to induce them to throw them out or maim them.\u2018The country has only gradually come to realize all the facts; but now that an admission of the facts is forced from the House of Lords itself, the country sées that practically, while the present relations between the two, houses continue, it can never have an, alternative administration.\u2018The Liberal Party may take office, but it will take office for the express purpose of altering the relationg between the two houses of parliament, and, if it Is not strong enough to do.that, it will be unable to carry on the government of the empire.\u2018To bring about a normal state of things, then, it is absolutely requisite that the Liberal and Unionist Parties be given a perfectly equal chance of carrying on the administration.of the, country satisfactorily to themselves and to the people, but neither party must have an advantage over the other.\u201d - As the \u2018Statist\u2019 conclusion puts the, case, the Liberal Party can.never again.be satisfied with a House of Lords resting mainly on hereditary principles.If the elections result in Liberal victory, the Lords will be Lielp- less and a sweeping reform will be effected.If the elections should result; in a Unionist victory, which few consider likely, the Lords could only, at best, gain time.It is expected that the elections will be concluded by December 18th.The boroughs, including London, will poll between December 3rd and 8th, the district boroughs December 7th \u2018and 17th, and the counties between December 8th and 17th, .(See also Page 12.)

Diplomatic Representatives Mayor Presented First.Ottawa, Nov.21.\u2014The feature of the drawing-room held in the Senate Chamber on Saturday evening by the Governor-General and Countess Grey was the renewed refusal of the con- suls-general of foreign countries to attend.The senior consul-general in Canada is Col.J.G.Foster, representing the United States.In Ottawa besides him there are the representatives of China, Japan, and Belgium.In Montreal there reside the consuls of \u201cGermany, France, Holland, Argentine Republic, etc.The question is one of precedence.The consuls are offended .that they are placed after the mayor of Ottawa in the order in which they are presented to the Governor-General.They claim that thelr mission to this country is diplomatic, and that ac- \u201ccordingly their status in this country is higher than mere trade representa- \u201ctives.However, Canada being still a colony of Great Britain in a technical sense, the Government of Canada does not recognize them as diplomatic representatives, although en occasion they have acted on diplomatic missions, as for instance when Col.Foster took part in the recent negotiations regarding the tariff between Canada and the United States.The drawing- .room, which was the last Their Excellencies will hold, was the smallest in several years, this being no doubt due to the fact that half morning for the late King Edward still prevails.PRESERVE LANGUAGES \u2014 Strong Plea for Conservation Made by the Hon, Sydney Fisher.Ottawa, Nov.21.\u2014A strong plea fon the conservation of the two languages,

there are two languages, \u20ac ]k, vefy important that they should be retained pure in their original form.I would particularly like to see the.language of old France preserved in its pure form

Those entitled to receive the original benefits enumerated hereinafter shall have been in the service of the city for a period of at least 15 years.\u2018The amount of the pension, or retiring allowance.to be provided for each employee shall be one-fiftieth of the average salary received by the respective employee for the five years previous to the date of retirement multiplied by the number of years in the %servicee The maximum annual amount.receivable shall not exceed two-thirds of the said average salary, shall be $300 per annum.At the date of the establishment of the Civie Employees Pension Fund, it shall be voluntary on the part of any therewith and be eligible for the proposed benefits.All those subsequently hecoming civic employees must become identified with the pension fund.\u2018Civic employeets entitled to.a: pen- two clagses\u2014(a) those who have attained the age of 65 vears of age; (b).those who may be placed upon the pension roll for specific reasons recognized by the governing authorities at an earlier age than 65.Such provision shall include resignation from the services, or incapacity arising from ill- health, The pension, or retiring allowance, when once entered upon, shall continue five years certain\u2014either to the employee himself.or.in the event nf his decease prior to the full completion of such period, to his wite or children, or parent depending upon his earnings.It is further understood that such provision shall not interfere with the continuance of the annuity during the lifetime of the said employee.\u2018In the event of the death of any employee whose length of service entitled him to the pension, his heirs shall be granted the allowance for five years equal to one-fiftieth of the average salary received by the said employee for the five years previous to death multiplied by the number of rears in the service, in no case to exceed two-thirds of such average salary as à maximum per annum, nor to fall below $300 as a minimum per an- num.The same benefits shall be held to apply to those who are totally incapacitated from service through ill.health.\u2018It shall be optional for the beneficiaries of any employee to accept, instead of five annual payments, in one payment the equivalent of four annual payments li#3s five percent.\u2018In the event of the voluntary retirement of any employee from the service, or the discontinuance of his services other than for an indictable offence, he shall be entitled to recover his original contributions to the fund without interest.In the case of dismissal from the service for an indictable offence, his contributions shall be forfeited to the pension fund.The pension fund shall be established by the appropriation on the part of the city, of the sum of $25,000 as a nucleus, together with such further yearly contributary additions by the city as are found necessary in order to maintain the benefits above enumerated, less necessarily, the contributions on the part of employees who have not attained the pension age and who are not otherwise eligible for the pension, and shall contribute monthly in advance two and a half percent of their salary.The City, for the.above contribution of $25,000, considers the advisahility of providing partly for the pension of the older employees who will necessariiv enter upon their pensions shortly after the establishment of the pension fund, which, otherwise, might reagon- ably be constructed as unfair to tha | Younger contributors.The nuclues of the pension Fund, and all subsequent contributions thereto.less amounts paid by way of pension, shall be invested and improved at four percent compound interest and the fund shall he held sacred to and solely applicable to the payment of the pensions.\u2018 .Proper account of all transactions shall he kept and duly audited hy an accountant.Then shall be revised hv an expert at least every three years, who will actuarially va'ue and report upon the condition of the find.Proper by-laws aprartaining to and governing the administration of the pension fund will require to receive attention, and, when printed, every member of the pension fund would, of right.he entitled to receive a copy.In the computing of the salaries in order to establish the: basis of the contributions and henefits, an amount equal to $310 per annum shall be ndded to the salary of the employee deriving benefit from the city in the way of lodging, light, heat.ete.St\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 QUEEN'S CONDITION CRITICAT: Brussels, Nov.71.\u2014The conditin tn.dav of Queen Flizaheth.who is ill Tc to 8c;

There has heen a little plague scare in England, and all anxiety on the subject is not yet over.It appears to be generally and officially admitted that four persons who dieë suddenly at Freston, Norfolk, a week or two ago, died of pneumonic plague.Moreover.a number of dead rats and a dead hare.have been found in Freston and adjoining districts who perished of the same disease.Plague-stricken rats have been found also, so it is reported, in Norfolk.The idea is that these pestilential vermin were imported from Russia in grain ships lying in the River Orwell.A great stir has ensued among the local and superior sanitary authorities, and there has been a general cleaning up in all directions, together with an organized campaign against rats.These creatures aad their parasités are closely associated, of course, with the spread of plague in India, but the English rat is the brown or Norwegian, whereas the Ind'an belongs to the black variety.It is said that the flea of the brown rat will not bite man.The Suffolk authorities, however, are not disposed to take any chances on this point.IE distinction between the \u2018genuine Pianola and all other piano-playing devices is recognized to-day by all musicians and the musically cultured both here and abroad.The Pianola\u2019s superior principle of construction, its exclusive expression devices like the METRO- STYLE and the THEMODIST, and its perfectly arranged and enormous repertory, give to it a prestige not shared even in slight degree by any other instrument of the same type.Demonstrated only at NORDHEIMER\u2019S LIMITED, 610-612 St.Catherine Street West a my RTT Il 6 WC De oT TSR v ont: sav A SRA CT EN Tad ae ESS SL \"ar 5, i BE AUS RS 1000 TE SNA AE 0 0% dita 0: ten oes Gn one o EE RSE : ME pes 7 Case Co Nov.21 7.43 a.m.George Washington, 4 5 N.G.LI oyd.® 21 600 pm.*\u201c Supplementary.23 745 am.Teutonic, White Star.°.2 8.00 p.m.\u201c Supplementary, 23 7.45 a.m.Amerika, Hamburg-American.23 6.00 p.m.Supplementary.23 745 am.La ouraine, G.Atlantie, *°23 6.00 pm.* Supplementary.9325 10.350 a.m.Virginian, Alaan.J +23 7.456 a.m.St, Louis, American.» 25 6.00 p.m, \u201c Supplementary.Tn eLetters osted- te.8:00 po: Other n matter vous be \u2018Tostsd b or PRED.BARCLAY, \u201cWeekly Çalendar _ THE MONTREAL DAILY \u2018 MONDAY, NOVEMBER 21, Riki mn + \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 - \u2014 rt : Study Tr avel Class.x J BAKER-EDWARDS Has formed a STUDY-TRAVEL CLASS to.répare Young Ladies for a Continental Tour; Meets evèry TUESDAY A \u2018TERNOON, 2.30 to 3.30.Mansfield street.At = and 8.15 p.m.TO-DAY © SOUSA| AND HIS BAND .Be to $100.Reserved rhots ase to at Arena and Star Branch Office.Er CLOSING SAILURS\u2019 CONCERT kontreal Sailers\u2019 Institute.Programme arranged by Mr.Fred.XE.Btiair, S'organist ane Choir Director of St.Paul's Church.mo \u201cArtists \u2018will include the .me Solelits of St.Pauls, .Also RS JACK MALXINSON, Cems EDWARD CURLYY, LL and\u2019 \u2014 LITTLE REA MACKEY.OÙ THE LAST WILL BE THE BEST, _COME-ADMIBSION, 10 CENTS.HIS MAJESTY'S \u201cFEDORA\u201d SPECIAL GALA GET.J \u2018Under the Patronage of.Their Excellion |\u2019 !

\u2018earnestness, \u201ccourage, and loyalty to his vision of truth.Probably the greatest part that he played was the demonstration anew of the fact that excommunications for heterodoxy are \u201cliable to fall rather on the saint and the Saviour than on the sinner; for whatever view we may take of some of his erratic ideas, Tolstoy sought unflinchingly to shape his: life by the teachings of Jesus, and was utterly devoted to the regeneration of mankind.The story of Tolstoy's \u2018lite has been told and retold again and again, but like évery story of a great life holds perennial interest.All the world knows how, as Luther was reared in the very heart of the system which he was destined to oventhrow\u2014Tolstoy was born and brought up in the exclusive and orthodox Russian society whieh it was his lot in after life to rebuke so fiercely.\u2018When quite a young man a companion \u2018informed him of the \u2018great discovery\u2019 which some scientific men had made that \u2018there was no God.\u201d Tolstoy dropped all religious exercises, but like many another sceptical Russian arvis- .tocrat remained a member of the Na- \u2018tionial Church.For a while he lived ithe frivolous life of thie young Rus- \u2018sian nobleman of those days, taking his \u2018share of low pleasures, but always with \u2018a \"growing dissatisfaction.He joined the army and fought against our armies at Sebastopol as an officer in the artillery, Here he first acquired the \u2018detestation of war, which was to bé \u2018one of thé chief features of his future.\u2018propaganda.Some litefary sketches \u2018which he published of the siege drew the attention of the Emperor Alexander, and he gave orders that the young man should be kept from danger.Retiring from the army, he married the 200d and noble woman who has been education and betterment for the peasants on his estates.Hé also visited foreign.countries, including England.But the meaning of life was hidden from him, existence seemed to be a hollow mockery, his misery Increased until several times he contemplated suicide.Then he saw there were some peod- ple who, in spite of a hard outward lot, lived and died happily.They were the poor peasants on his estates.He found that this.happy life was intimately associated with their sense of religion.For a little while he went pack to the old observances of his childfrood, but his reason revolted against them and thèn, as be says, \u2018he \u2018found himself alone with that myster- \u2018fous \u2018Baok' in which the principles of Christianity - .are contained.He tells how he simply accepted the fact that Jesus meant exactly what he said, he tried to follow the Gospèl téaching and at once he found that the meaning of life wds dawning on him.He would have.gladly sold all that he had and given ito.the.poor, but the thought of his family deterred him.But as far , 121 tion of the workers.for: reform.te keep.a-

municipalities has crystallized in a local option vote which has made a very lange portion of the pro- vines \u2018dry\u2019 territory.At present, out, of the eight hundred and sixteen municipalities in the province four hundred and ten-are dry,\u2019 and four hundred and six are \u2018wet.The licenses issued in the province number 1,950.This year between eighty and ninety municipalities, with

reported increased business.The annyal horse show has | always been a notable event and many.prophecies were made that a horse show without liquor hotels would prove a failure if not an utter impossibility.Instead of this the horse show this year has been.the most successful in the history of the town.There has been little violation of the license law, if any, during the year, the arrests for drunkenness have fallen off by about seventy percent, and In nearly all cases of arrest it has been found that the liquor had been obtained in the neighboring \u2018west! municipality of Preston.The Rev.C.H.Daly, of Almonte, | has stated that in that town the local veto thas been a distinct success.The hotel accommodation is good and am- \u2018ple to meet every need, and more comfortable without the bars.Business \u2018has prospered, the annual fair was a success financially and in every other way, and there were fewer convictions registered on the magistrate\u2019s books than before local prohibition came into force.Newmarket which went under the veto last year, has been very prosperous.According to the New- \u2018Express-Herald,\u201d \u2018There will \u2018be sixty-eight new houses in New- \u2018market when they are all finished, and.\u2018all have been built since local option \u201ccame into force.Some of our mer- \u201cchants were saying the other day

many the accommodation is excellent.Some liquor hotels give good actommodation, but in many it is vile, and the company that haunts many of them is viler still.The success of the local option ¢am-

\u2018three-fifths.clause\u2019 for which it is responsible there would be many more than four hundred and ten municipalities under local option.But the law as it is seems to be enforced without fear

Former Undiminished.(Letter of a \u2018British Officer\u2019 in the \u2018Spectator.\u2019) Sir \u2014having just returned from eight.months travelling under the Créscënt \u2018and the Star in Turkish Arabia and Syria, perhaps the following remarks of mine on the above subject may be of some interest to students of Turkish affairs.hate the Turks.This of course is nothing new.and has always been the case; but it might be thought that the néw so-called Constitutional Govern- .ment might have 3 ed this state of affairs for the better Rut far from it; and the enmity which the Arabs bear toward the present Government is just as hitter as that which they bore toward the old regime, ¥f \u2018not more so.And the reasons tor this are not far to seek.Both In Bagdad and Damascus 1 talked with Arabs of position- and respectability\u2014.who had indeed actively helped to tale was always the same; sooher or later we came round to their griev- \u2018ancés spgainst the Government.Of course many opinions

in schools and by - making.Turkish the official language of the\u2018 courts of justice.As \u2018far as I could ascertain locally these grievances were perfectly well | grounded.Both in the districts of Bagdad and Damascus, particularly the latter, almost all the posts of any importance were held by Turks who knew not a word of Arabic, and had absolutely no intention of trying to learn.All the business transacted in the courts of these officials has of course to be \u2018conducted in TurkisH, and as but an infinitesimal fraction of the lower classes of Arabs know Turkish, the delays, confusions, and miscarriages of justice may be imagined.Those who have business in the courts and do know \"Turkish have of course to get their petitions written and their causes pleaded by those who do; and these, the half educated hangers on of the courts, naturally make.it their business to fleece their patrons to.the best of their ability.Moreover, once the case is started, the unfortunate litigants have no means of following the proceedings except through the medium of a third party.As can: be imagined, the whole system lays itself open to the encouragement of a multitude of abuses great and small.© The attempt to- kill the Arabic language by substituting Turkish for it in the primary schools is a particularly sore point among the Arabs, There is no people which hss a mora

everyone knows, the sacred language of Islam.It is the medium in which the Koran is written, the lan- | guage chosen by God in Ww hich to com- iMunicate his will to Mohammed, the language in which all prayers are offered up by good Mohammedans all .over the world, whatever may be their mother tongue.The greatest asset| which the Turks themselves have] as a means of binding their vast | overgrown

its high- handed.tactless military despotism, .is woing to allenate in addition the Arabs of .the towns, the outlook for Turkish Arabian policy is riot very bright, to say the least of it.by BEST SHOT

ample vf the neo-Italiän school, Puc- cinj's \u2018La Bobemé, which has had universal vogue; the other Ambroise Thomas's \u2018Mignon.\u2019 a classic of the old school, but apt to be barely tolerated: by superior critics of the up-to-date persuasion.In their way, however, both are intensely interesting, and the \"Musical Society of Montreal is to be thanked for presenting them, both for the real pleasure they afford and the musical education that is to be found in them\u2014an education whieh in this city has hitherto been lacking.There is one difference in these two operas which is noteworthy and to which we have formerly cailed attention.Thomas, and composers before Wagner, did not compose music to the ninteresting.unlyrical parts of a libretto.They did not consider such parts to be \u2018singable,\u201d and saw no reason to turn them into song.The Italian method, however, ag Arthur Newman notes in a recent criticism of D'Albert's \u2018Tiefland.\u2019 .in dealing with such pasrages is to let the voice declaim them on some two or three notes.or even on one.\u2018The advant.ge of this method is that it enables the characters on the stage to say any- thing\u2014even to offer each other cigarettes and whiskeys and sodas, and talk about ornithology and all kinds of strange things, as in \u201cMadame But- terfiv\u201d; but the musical sense feels it to be an imposture: and only tolerates it for the sake of getting on with the drama.\u2019 The old way, of course, upsets the \u2018unities\u2019 and daused the - revolt of Wagner; but Wagner made the merely narrative portions of the libretto as interesting as the Ivriéo\u2014dramatic portions; or, at least, that was his aim.Not one librettist in a hundred, however, as Arthur Newman observes, can construct an opera in this style-\u2014 \u2018the singable Moments of the drama, as a rule, can only be made intelligible by a heap of connecting matter that is unsingabie.\u201d The conclusion is that until our leading: composers find some i way out of the difficulty there is not ! an opera of this generation that will | not he regarded as a curious hybrid \u2018by the next.\u2018Even thôse who assisted in

to be worn standing up furnished me with a means of comparing the European with the American method of doing, business.His line wag French agricultural machinery.and inasmuch as he had been \u2018making\u2019 the coast for several years, it was fair to assume that he was & success in his.business.For three weeks after his arrival at the Lupone, he did nothing save sit in \"the covered front yard of the hotel and idly speculate about the progress of the war while ragged ur~ chins, after the mannér of the coun- \u2018try, polished and repolished his shoes.He assiduously cultivated and bought cou- [drinks for politicians and listened to their bombastic.utterances without in ;( the least committirig himself in the matter of opinion.By the second Sunday night, he had progressed far enough in the social intercourse with a place at the president's table \u2018for.dinner.The week after that, he went.riding in a brougham with some of fuls of the thick red dust which overlays

Swiss, buoyant with affability which but thinly.concealed his contempt for his prospective customers.He bought drinks for natives in the open, bragged about American machinery night and day and preduced truthful figures to demonstrate its superiority.; When with | Européan covertly \u2018congratulated cu being.white, and \u2018in the \u2018es fines uf.traders he \u201cthe International

the intent of con- perving their csvn.interestg against inroads from the United States, saw to it that the natives learnad all \u2018about the American drummer's pleasure at meeting \u2018white\u2019 people jy Central Aun- erica.oo In consèquence of this, the American found that he was welcome to buy refreghments galore for pokti- ciang and to talk about his machinery.He was conspicuous by his presence in public places, but nobody saw him entered as a guést at any family gatherings of noté.lix official circles.He went away, openly cursing \u2018niggers\u2019 and vowing that Latin-America

\u2018Strike- \u2014\u2014 .(From the Colioes \u2018Republican.\u2019) It seams that Robert and William Welch, two young men residing in Montreal, were informed that there were positions paying a large amount {| of money to be had in New York City {mérèly for the asking at the present i time, and Being out of work in their own city determined to make the Journey in.quest of these seemingly dusirable situations.Accordingly thew borrowed money for the trip to the American wietropolls and went there, On arriving they went to the express company\u2019s office and were immediately hired to work for the corporation, being told their wages would be $4.50 a day and- thelr board and lodging.They did not begin to see the difficulties under - which they were expected to work until they went to the stables for their horses and waggons, when they obsérved that the company\u2019s waggons were veritable wheel- | ed prisons, into the front of which the driver was shut into his place on the seat by a contrivance that resembled an animal cage.The two brothers resolved to \u2018sti¢k it out\u2019 in the strange city howevér and thérefore began their labors: Before they lind finished their first day they were informed by union drivers that a big strike was in Progress in the city against the\u2019 express company and that unless they, gave up their positions at once troublé of a serious kind was sure to follow.The Canadians saw thei* dreams of good positions and a presperous future dwindle away as vapor on the air, and gave up thelr \u2018jobs\u2019 without furthen parley.They then stated their story to the strikers, telling them of their having come from Montreal unwittingly to act as strike Breakers and of their desire to once môre reach thein home city.\u2018The financial condition of the strikérs themselves was somewhat strained, but they managed to advance the two young men enough money to- reach Albany.From that city they walked to Cohoes and told Recorder Belanger, with whom they are acquainted, of their plight.Thé Recorder lost no time in procuring gid for them.He communi- cat:d with Alderman Robért, of the Sixth ward, by teléphone, at once, and of they Poor, George Grober, of the young men\u2019s plight.When the Overseer took | charge of the two brothers, William, the younger of them, was shaking as | with an dgue aud was evidently very : ill.They were informed by the Over- séer that as they wére not residents of Cohoes hé had no power to commit them to any institution, and they replied that their only wish was to reach Asin of money sufficient to take them to Whitehall was raised, and after giving their gincere thanks to those who had aided them they left on the Dela ware and Hudson train on Saturday night.The older brother said that even though their funds did not provide fon their going beyond Whitehall, they would stay on the train until put off by thé conductor and take thein ¢liances on reaching their home city.The younger brother had symptôme of pneumonia when séen in this city, and he may not be able to reach hig home again béfore he is required ta take to his bed.The two young men possessed a certain refinement of character that was «Meinlé.fiÿjiecable, and the interest in] \u201ctheir.behdlf by the men of this city who became acquainted with.their cage, was stimulated because of that fact.BEACONSFIELD.(From the London

so freguent in these days of aeroplaning that it may prove of interest to refer back to the classics of as ample as might be expected.© Writing in 1841 of a fall from an immense altitude which did not result in death, a French observer, M.Mahzini, declares that he had searched in vain in thé annals of science for a similar case.We can well believe it.The victim or patient was a tapissiéer who had béen engaged -in putting up decorations on the occasion of the belated obséquiés of Napoleon the Great in the lofty dome of the Church of the Intalides in Paris.When busy moving a ladder on the top of a high scaffolding he overbalanced himself, \u2018and in obedience to of the ladder and the platform, a Frenchman would, \"Tiens, me voila parti!\u201d With these cheerful words on his lips he fell

external or internal.At the end of a month Pasquier found him quité well.Manzini also records the casé of his own fall from a gréat height when a child and déscribes the feeling of blindness that came upon him due to the rapidity of his descent, also the anguish of recovering his breath af- Others, however, describe their sensations during a tremendous fall as being far from disagreeable.Thus some nine years ago Prof.Heirn, the geologist of Zurich, described \u2018thé flood of thought\u2019 that alpine fall, which began on an ing clined plane.He saw beautiful scenes and visions of his past life as he fell and reflected rationally on his death or the chance of escape.He felt no pain on striking the ground, but he heard a thud, which was the impact of his own head on a rock.Another Alpine faller thought about his insurance and his family.\u2018Of the losing of my Breath, of which people talk, there was no suggestion, and only the heavy fall on the snow covered ground caused me to lose suddenly and painlessly all consgclousness.' Both these Alpinists insisted on the absence of anxiety from «their minds when falling, while one certainly felt by the drowning.: Among classic English falls may be mentioned that of a steeplejack who in 1800 fell from the top of the Church of St.George in Bolton-le-Moors to the ground.the whole distance tra- verged being some 120 feet.The man's skull struck some sheet lead upon the earth and left its impact upon it, but though this fall was quite unbroken as in the previous cases by seaffold- ing, rocks and so forth, the man was only slightly injured and resumed work in a few days.Recently a man with his boots om féll from the top of a cliff at Dover, the height of which was afterward found to be 400 feet.He was picked up floating insensible in some five feat of water, but his boots \"vere off.which proves that he must have retained sufficient consciousness on reaching the water to enable him to draw his boots from his feet.Both, these cases are well attested.We wish we could be as sure of the truth of the story.told of an ourrièr, who fell from a .fourth fioor window and\u2019 who, us he passed a lower on heard ts rémark \u2018with vreat raniditv.and clear, arm == the.subject, which, «however, are not.some obscure instinct jumped clear crying to his fellow workmen, as only\"! ing finally feet first on the slate roof | He had.traversed his mind during a typical: describes sensations similar to those.va bien jusqu\u2019a present pourru que Ca dure.\u2019 \u2014\u2014mememce mme rt \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 SCOTTISH STUDENTS\u2019 DRESS.(From the London \u2018Chronicle.\u2019 The Scottisif university student hap a code of etiquette in clothes as strict as that of Eton or of Jarrow.Aud into it the straw hat enters.On September 15, be the weather ever sc bleak, the streets are full of what \u2018the small boy knows as \u2018strawbashers.On the 16th you will find never 2 qne On.a student's head, that is.As fm the \u2018medical student, he seldom wear: a straw hat at all, or anything in \u2018uts place.It is his pride to go bareheaded, as it is to wear a fancy w :istcoal \u2018and turned-up trouser ends.The arts and divinity men sedately avoid these last three fashicns.A \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 te \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 1 THE \u2018WITNESS\u2019 DAILY PATTERN.The home dressmaker should keep a little catalogue sérap book of the dally pattern cuts.These will be found very useful to refer to from time to time.§,546.\u2014A Neat Work Apron.A large work apron that comes well over \u2018the walst is indispensable to the busy \u2018housewife.This one of white linen is not only a proteation to the dress, but is neat and attractive as well.The waist is in jumper effect and broadens out over the shoulders in a most becoming way.The skirt is cut circular, fitted in at the waist by darts.Gingham, percale and lawn are all \u2018used for the making.The pattern is out in three sizes, small.medium and large.The medium size requires 4 1-2 vards of 36-inch matérial.RIRE ER ERREUR PATTERN COUPON, \u2014\u2014 Please send the above-men- tioned pattern as per directions given below.+ \\ + Dovcsacuoce Size .\u2026\u2026.Name 050000200000 00100 00m 00 Address in full: enccou 0001300000 000U 020 SES 2OU GA EE EE 0 0u 0 N.B.\u2014Be sure to cut out the !llus- tration and send with the coupon, care ully filled out.The pattern cannot reach you In less than a week.Price 10 cent.each, in cash.postal 656004 nu 2 qe» 2ue fe 28 2e 28e 28e dde ae A af be abs fe me af ado Aie ae fe of AN: ae de née 2 af Ne RACERATTRERRERUTERTTERERTE ; Fatterr ai ft.note or sta.ps.Address.\u2018Witness\u2019 Department, ~ Witness\u2019 Block, Los REI Ar SS AP -~ Sn 0.\u201c\u2014 a) CSST UNE Ses ie - ace teurs pe a ai | | NOV a 5 pipe \u2018 BER\u201d 21, 1910.BIRTHS, MARRIAGES AND DEATHS Notices of births, marriages and deaths, must.invariably be endorsed with the Name \u2018and address of the sender, or otherwise no notice can be taken of them.Birth notices are inserted for 26¢; marriage notices for b0c: death notices for 26c¢, prepaid.nouncement of funeral! appended to death notice, 35c extra; other exten- of life, two cents per word extra, except poetry, which is 50c per line extra, prepaid.Lo Annual subscribers, whose names &p- pear on our lists, may nave announcements of bir:h, marriages and deaths (without extended obituary or verses) occurring in their immediate families, free of charge, in which case name and address of subscribers should invariably be given.- BIRTHS.!

that we should not consume more than we: ourselves produce; that men\u2018and women should equally practice and \u2018aspire towards purity and chastity.\u201d The Gount- the first rule-is based on the proposition that human life is a struggle for existence which seems to be a governing fae- tor in the development of humanity, that is, of progress.But he believed that if a man seriously asked the question.svhether love \u2018or antagoniwm to our neighbor be a quality inherent in human nature;
