Intervention REBELS EVACUATE AGUA PRIETA.Iusurrectionists Silently Departed at Daybreak\u2014Ammunition Exhausted.Washington, April 18.\u2014Positive assurances that the Mexican Government will adopt a \u2018definite restrictive policy along the border, and news from Douglas that the rebel forces have evacuated Agua Prieta, did much to-day to relieve the high tension under which President Taft and members of his administration have labored for the last few days.The assurances from Mexico followed demands of the State Department that fighting which endangered American lives In the border towns must be stopped.That the situation is not now regarded as aoute is evidenced by the fact that leaders of both the Senate and the House, with whom the President conferred prior to the assembling of the cabinet, declared that no action 18 contemplated by Congress at this time.The President had extended conferences with Senator Cullom, of Illinois, and Representative Sulzer, of New York, chairmen respectively of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the Nenate, and House.Senator Cullom insisted that he could see no reason for intervention while Mr.Sulzer announced that Congress would not act hastily.Mr.Sul- zer is of the opinion that thus far there has been no overt act in Mexico sufficient to warrant intervention.He intimated, however, that a plan s being considered to relieve the dan- zer to Americans near the border.This vontemplates an agreement for a neu- \u2018ral zone from five to ten miles wide, along the boundary Hne.Congress, Mr.Sulzer said, will not act under any circumstances without + special message from the President.To callers to-day President Taft said here was no intention on his part to ntervene in Mexico at this time, and :ne two big developments of the morn- ng had strengthened him in that position.In official circles it is realized that while hostilities have ceased at Agua Prieta, trouble may break out at Juarez or at other border towns, but they are more than ever inclined now to trust that Mexico will make good her promise to keep the federal troops away from the border.REBELS EVACUATE - © AGUA PRIETA.- Agua Prieta, April 18.\u2014The rebel army, after almost eighteen hours\u2019 of incessant fighting yesterday in defence of Agua Prieta, quietly evacuated the town during the night.It moved out silently, and when day broke was nowhere to be seen.The Mexican national troops entered the city at dawn, encountering no resistance.The federals approached the town from the south and east during the early hours, coming In slowly and cau- tlously, lest they encounter an ambush.!rreat was the surprise of the commanders of the government troops on finding.when they reached the outer works of the rebel entrenchments that the trenches had been abandoned and to \\InsuTrectos were in sight.The federals continued to come in, still more slowly, presumably expecting at rvery moment to encounter a surprise, Put they found no rebels anywhere.The latter had vanished as completely as the night.There was no indica- t'on even of the direction they had \u2018taken ThÉ reason for the evacuation of \u2018he city after their all-day defence of |! was not at first apparent.The most logical conclusion seemed to be that they had exhausted their ammunition.CREAM AS BAGGAGE.Judgment Reserved in Case Before Railway Board.Ottawa, April 18\u2014An application made by a number of Montreal and Ottawa milk companies was heard by the Railway Commission this morning, who were asked to order railways to carry cream as baggage, as is milk, when desired by shippers.Messrs.W.tH.Trenbolme, J.B.Trudel, J.J.Jou- bert, and others of Montreal preferred arguments for the milk companies.and Messrs.KE.W.Beattie, of Montreal, general solicitor of the C.P.R., and W.L.Scott.of Ottawa, spoke for the railways.The case hinged a necessity or a luxury.was reserved.EMPTIED TANKS.Judgment Mischievous Youths Fined for Thoughtless Act.Alexander Briere and Alphonse Aliatre, two youths, pleaded not guilty to-day to the charge of disturbance nf the peace brought against them by the C.P.R.Evidence produced by \u2018'onstable Moore was damaging, and Judge Bazin imposed a fine of five dollars and costs or ten days in jail , The consequences of their act could have dire results, as it was brought sut that they had emptied the con- ints of two tanks of water near Bordeaux, placed in convenient places to he used in case of fire, and the nearest water at that point was far enough away to allow of a disaster resulting 'n casesof a fire.A FORGERY CHARGE.Joseph Charest, a young man of unknown address, pleaded not guilty to forging à cheque for $25 in the name vf Mr.F.Lamothe, and was remanded for enquete on the 25th by Judge

police and the plain clothes men of the city force, when they held up some sixty Italians suspected of carrying dangerous weapons on their persons contrary to the law, was noticeable this morning in the Arraignment Court.Of the fifteen prisoners, a large number occasioned by the holidays on the two previous days, seven ware accused of carrying concealed weapons, and were taken in during the raid on the previous Satur- ay.Vincenco Pietro, Raphael Baroletto [emned te appear on Tout\u201d, pedn 4 long knife capable of doubling up to half its length, but when opened was about sight inches long.Antonfo Caroni, another of the group, for the same offence and carrying the same kind of a knife was fined $6 and costs or ten days in jail un the two remaining prisoners was found, at the time of arrest, two loaded revolvers, and they were in evidence this morning with the bullets extracted.These terrible agencies of destruction were viewed with mingled feelings by the onloukers, and that the police had donc the public a world of good was the verdict of all who saw the outlay captured by the hold-uppers.Papllo Nicquo pleaded not guilty to carrying the revolver found on him by the police when searched, and was ordered to pay a deposit of twenty- five dollars for his appearance on Friday.Raphael Borlanato made the same plea of not gutlty, and a $20 deposit was exacted by the judge.Felix Capone pleaded guilty to the charge against him, and was by Judge Bazin condemned to pay a fine of $10 and costs or one month and suffer confiscation of the revolver by the police.They were given to understand that they may incur the suspicions of the police, and are Hable at any time to undergo a like search should they be suspected, before their appearance in the Arraignment Court for enquete.TO REMOVE GARBAGE Superintendent of Incineration Department Suggests New Plan Superintendent Chenevert, of the Incineration Department, will recommend to the Board of Control that a trial should be made of a system of section men through the city to Te- move garbage from the houses and place the barrels back after the scavengers have passed.He will St.Henri and St.George wards ag such

Mrs.N.Denis with his fists during a drunken franzy last night, Stanley Lavigne, 609 Craig street east, was sent to serve fifteen days\u2019 hard labor.The boy appeared in the Recorder's Court this morning with his eye bandaged and his head bruised.pau G.T.R CHANGES.As a result of the resignation of Mr.E.S.Waterman, formerly chief train despatcher of the fourth and fifth districts of the eastern

Inspector F.J Fitzgerald and Constables.Carter, Kinney and Taylor of the Mounted Police, near Fort Mgcphereon, was re- celved here to-day by -Lleut.-Col.White, comptroller of the R.N.W.M.P., who characterized the tragedy A as the worst in the history of the famous force.A particularly sad feature of it is that the four men Were chosen as the Mounted Police contingent to the Coronation.~~ : Until to-day the whareahouts of the the department, though not untildhey were fortÿ days overdue wae Ht: deemed necesst#wy to send out thé\" search party which found the men.\u201c \u2018The inspeetor,\u2019 said Col.White, \u2018was a man of dogged determination and rugged constitution, with an experience of ten years in the Arctic circle, He knew the ground up there as few men did.The three constables were also experienced travellers, so when the party failed to turn up at Dawson \u2018on time little anxiety was felt.Fitzgerald and his little band could weather almost anything, but as days passed with no sign of the expedition headquarters at Dawson began to fecl uneasy, and when the men were forty days\u2019 overdue search was begun, with the result that Kinney and Taylor were found 35 miles, and Fitzgerald and Carter 25 miles from Fort Mac- pherson.They had perished almost in sight of their goal.The exact cause of the tragedy may never be kknown, but we beMeve that they had some difficulty with the dogs and attempted to return to Fort Macpherson.The same wire to Lieut.-Col.White conveyed intelligence of the death at Herschel Island in January of Sergeant Selig, a native of Nova Scotia.Inspector Fitzgerald was a native of Halifax; Kinney came from the United States, but joined the force at Winnipeg; Taylor was an Australian.Carter had seen 21 years\u2019 service on the force and married an Esquimaux at Herschell, the ceremony being performed by Bishop Stringer.pement SIR LOMER GOUIN OFF Leaves To-night on His Way to Attend the Coronation.Sir Lomer

received a reply from the Bell Telephone Company to the city's plea before the Dominion Board of Railway Commissioners against the rates charged in Montreal.The telephone company's answer is that it has never, directly or indirectly, increased the tariff charged in Montreal since its inception.years ago, when the city was of a much smaller area.At that time the number of subscribers was much less, but the salaries to be paid and the general expenses were also much less.Now House o£) ONLY 10 DAYS LEFT.Only ten days left for our subscribers to double our subscription list, and they can if they will, and we believe they will do it.We have information that individuals, churches and societies are WORKING all over the country, and from the encouraging letters we have received we believe that the people of Canada want, and are willing to support, a clean, honest, independent newspaper that is devoting its entire energies to the people.One man read one of the articles and put on his hat and started in to canvass.Each of the first ten men he met gave him a subscription, and that was away off beside the Pacific Ocean.As he had never canvassed for anything before, he felt that other people could have the same success.i Another man\u2019 hit on a Quebec village, where there were only nine English families, none of whom had been getting the \u201cWitness.\u201d He got the entire nine families to subscribe and feels sure that every English reader in the province of Quebec should subscribe too, and would enjoy and profit by the Montreal \u2018Witness.\u2019 Only 10 days more and five-sixths of the circulation yet to be doubled.That means that on the average only one out of every six has, as yet, done anything to help to double the circulation of the \u201cWitness.\u201d Would it be nothing to the other five if the \u2018Witness\u2019 were to die?Is it a great matter to ask of each of our subscribers to get a new one when the editor and publisher of the \u2018Witness\u2019 has been willing to sacrifice between twenty and thirty thousand dollars a year that the \u2018Witness\u2019 might continue in its service to the people of Canada?If you want to co-operate with him in the maintenance and development of the \u2018Witness\u2019 type of journalism sen\u201d -long one new subscription at one dollar for the \u2018Daily Witness,\u201d or sixty-five cents for the \u2018Weekly Witness\u2019 for twelve months\u2014and do it NOW.Those who can get the paper within twenty-four hours of publica- «tion will naturally prefer and profit most by the \u2018Daily Witness'\u2014others may prefer the \u201cWeekly Witness.\" How the press and the pulpit of the world would \u2018echo and reecho the achievement of the good men and women of Canada if in one short month they doubled its circulation\u2014not for selfish reasons, but in the spint of co-operation.We will need daily tidal waves, each one bigger than the other, if the result is to be attained within the short time remaining.But each one getting a new subscriber the result could easily be accomplished in one day.Remember, the watchword of this campaign is CO-OPERATION.» 5 5 $ 9 $ 5

committee.Junior members of the government, speaking im the country last week, assured their bearers that the government on its side would be guilty of \u2018no vacillation,\u2019 that there had been \u2018no thought of compromise,\u2019 while it was understood the Opposition, conscious of their very respectable number, were &s deter- ined to use every means to defeat the passage of the bill Now, the debate has begun and been going od for days, but anything.more unlike the atmosphare\u201d of revolution and counter-revolution that \u2018our imaginations pictured could not weli be conceived.No all-night sittings, RO excessive use of the closure, no great exasperation on either side, but n- stead, a humdrum start at consideration of the hundreds of amendments with which the bill is threatened, varied by decisions of the chairman ruling many of them out of order.Progress has been very slow, but opinions seem to be divided as to Whether the promoters or opposers of the bill have the better reason to congratulate themselves.To get about & Mne a day of the bill through commit- tes is by many Liberals thought \u2018not béd.\u2019 The Opposition, no doubt, feel on their side that to press their obstruction tactics too much to \u2018begin with would be a mistake, so the combined effect of the strategy on both ofdes has been to produce so far a dull tle.he election petitions are now being tried, and throw much light on the ways of the meaner political partisans In a close party fight.At Cheltenham & member has lost his seat \u2018owing to tHe falsifying of the election expenses by Lis chief agent.At Exeter, where the sitting member was elected by a mejority of only four votes, the de- féâted candidate claims the seat on the ground that a number of \u2018unlawful and invalid\u2019 votes were given to Bis successful opponent.Hence the ¢dse resolves itself into a \u2018scrutiny of every doubtful vote and a decision BY the judges in every case as to whether the vote should be allowed or t.Here, as at Cheltenham, there \u201cno charge of bribery or any unlaw- action on the part of the two candi- tes themselves.In some tases the iallot papers had been filled up irreg- Han but in the majority of cases objection to the vote was that the voter had received money for distribut- g bills or doing some other service one of the parties during the elec- on campaign The endeavors of the etitioner's friends to establish such eases against his opponent had sometimes been more ardent than wise.Thus one witness admitted he had told e Conservative agent in view of this petition that he had been paid 1s.by a beral young lady to distribute bills pan had received 2s.6d.from the agent for making the statément, which he confessed in court to have been a lle hers confessed to the same, and said was all over the city that if a man wanted a shilling he had only to go and tell the other side he had given out bills for \u2018the Liberals.The reflection that seems obvious is what an excellent lesson the whole proceeding is\" for the democracy as to the importance of the vote.As man ter man steps down from the wit x publicly disgraced for the trifling or corrupt

Catholici \u201cWidhe extént as ES Heastng them from the bonds of a itarrihge contracted under sanctions appointed by the State, hag aroused indignation among the clergy of all other denominations.These have a special interest in the matter, as it ia they who, under our customs, are the functionaries charged With the celebration of marriage, and consequently with the guardianship of its sancti ties.As such, they are the proper parties to protest against any invas- fon of those sanctities.In doing =o, however, they only express the strong feeling, and speak for one of the very dearest interests, of the whole community to which the samctity of the marriage tie is of more Importance than almost any other civi! richt.None but those who hold th> bond in contempt and would prefer to have it despised can complacently contemplate the scandal of seeing two who entered that relationship In good faith separated at the mere wish of one or both of them, on the score of some ecclesiastical irregularity in the way in which the tle was knit.If the parties have sinned against the church, let the church punish them according to its spiritual powers, and in proportion, or, if it sees fit, as the Bishop of Montreal has said, out of all proportion to the irregularity.But to sunder those who have deliberately united, who are de facto joined to- gether\u2014whom God hath joined\u2014and' who are joined under the sanctities of the State, is an offence against public morals.The Ministerial Association of Toronto, after taking legal advice, has passed a resolution, whose purpose is to meet the case, namely: \u2018That it \u2018shail be a criminal offence for any \u2018marriage null and void or to use his \u2018influence to secure the separation of \u2018husband and wife, except on grounds \u2018and by processes recognized by the \u2018law of the land.\u2019 There \u20acs in this, ae \u2018worded, a begging of the question at issue, namely, whether the parties in the case are legally husband and wife or not.It would need, therefore, to he more explicit on that score.But the intended enactment is not a whit too strong.The other resolution of the same association aske, if necessary, for an amendment to the British North America Act transferring marriage, as far as the state is concemed, to thé federal government.The need of such a change as this is being very strongly feit in the United States for tho sake of making marriage nationally valid.It will not be very easy to aceomplish 1t here so long as the conscience of this province supports arls

Poaching Vessel \u2018Eagle.\u2019 Windsor, Ont., April 18.\u2014The American fishing tug \u2018Eagle\u2019 which was captured while poaching in Canadian waters in Lake Erle last week, still lies under seizure at Ki \u2018her skippér, Captain E.G.Tuttle, of Dunkirk, N.Y., arrived in Windsor to- settle the case on the Canadian Government\u2019s terms.Game Warden Chauvin, of Windsor, who captured the tug with a couple of thousand dollars\u2019 worth of fishing nets, expects to settle the case shortly by fining Captain Tuttle a substan~- tlal amount.At a conference between the Hon.J.O.Reaume, Game Warden Chauvin and Captain Tuttle, the matter was gone into thoroughly, and it was agreed that the \u2018Eagle\u2019 be released and restored to her owner provided the.fine to be imposed is paid promptly.A lurid story to the effect that the game warden's gasoline launch took fire while giving chase to the \u2018Eagle,\u2019 and that the crew of the latter magnanimously turned about and came to the rescue of the government officers, is disproved by Chauvin's statement.The \u2018conflagration\u2019 was entirely in the nature of a miniature bombardment from rifles carried on

\u2014\u2014\u2014 Brief deshatches from London a couple of weeks ago said that the resistance organized by the suffragettes, against their being enumerated in the census while they were denied representation as citizens, had proved quite ineffectual; that the authorities had managed to circumvent their plans, and that comparatively small numbers of women had tried to carry out the schemeb of resistance.The suffra- BdXes themselves tell a different story.Their official organ, \u2018Votes for Women,\u2019 to hand this week, says that \u2018the census protest was a great and unquali- fled success.\u2019 Miss Christian Richardson, of Montreal now in London, writes on April \u2018How the women took leave of their census\u2019 formed a good part of the week's newspaper gossip here.As to the results, authorities differ\u2014differ widely.For instance, the \u2018Pall Mall Gazette,\u2019 I think it is, gave the numbers at the all-night meeting in the Aldwych Roller Rink at seventy.While the \u2018Westminster Gazette\u2019 gave them as 1,500.One paper described the audience as skating wleepily around at three o'clock.I myself was \u2018An the rink from 1.80 a.m.until 2.45 a.m., and the speeches and songs were still going merrily on when I left.I did not count the audience, and did not inquire.Ticket-holders were coming and going between this and other places of entertainment and the Gardenia Restaurant all the time, but all the while I was there the hall appeared to be at least two-thirds full, and in the front the seats were very close { together.The whole evening had apparently but one disturbance, and that was caused by a few young men who, without tickets, managed to shove their way in for the purpose.I did not see them, but the reports seem to agree that when Mrs.Pankhurst, in her quiet, persuasive voice, appealed to them as \u2018English gentlemen;\u2019 that they beat a hasty retreat.Most of the evasions took the form of cosy at homes or night camping quarters.Edinburgh, Liverpool, Birkenhead, Reading.Manchester, Cardiff, Cheltenham, Bristol, and almost every city had its jolly bands of protesters.In London and elsewhere some camped in caravans.Miss Rhoda Anstey, principal of tha Ans- tey Physical Training College at Er- dington, was one of the resisters, Miss Emily Davison, in spite of \u2018no women\u2019 allowed\u2019 in the Parliament buildings.spent the night in Guy Fawkes' cupboard in the crypt.The police maintain that all the women were counted, but the mere counting is the smallest part of the census.The information about individuals is what is wanted.Private houses all over the country were packed with twenty-fives, fifties, and hundreds of which no information has reached the authorities.The temporary \u2018head\u2019 refused to answer any questions.Others filled out their papers in thelr own fashien.Mrs.Pankhurst wrote simply \u2018No vote, no census.\u2019 Miss Dorothy Bowker gave the valuable information that she was \u2018dumb politically, blind to the census, and deaf to the enumerator.\u201d Captain C.M.Gonne, R.A., who last week won his suit for damages against lice and press, wrote: \u2018The guests at the Gardenia were themselves a veritable host, and the roll call of that host will be faithfully rendered if justice is done to the women before the Coronation.\u2019 In York one band of resisters \u2018lay low\u2019 in a darkened room.Three times a policeman came and tried the door and went away apparently satisfied that the place was empty.Then the ladies rose, had supper, and spent \u2018a most enjoyable night.In Cardiff a member of one group, who refused to answer questions.politely held the candle while the enumerator read them the Census Act.Some householders tied the census paper to the door handle with suffragette colors, and one man \u2018in his paper described his wife's \u2018infirmity as \u2018unenfranchised.\u2019 In Portsmouth a group of resisters spent a part of the night reading Ibsen's \u2018Ghosts.\u2019 In an Edinburgh cafe they-gave a wax- encounter of the suffragettes and Mr.Winston Churchill and /Mr.Asquith.Two women, one 85 and one over 70,

WOMAN DENTIST.Montreal has a woman dentist, in good and regular practice, but dentistry for women is quite a new idea here.It ia different in Holland, where & lady looks after Queen Wil- helming\u2019s teeth.In England there are now between forty and fifty registered women dentists in training, of whem about a dozen have taken diplomas.The tralning of the modern dentist is strenuous and scientific.calculated to have produced terror and fury in the breast of the practitioner of long ago, who usually got his experience at the expense of his patients.It is a satisfaction to learn that the novice first stops teeth in a dummy mouth before trying her hand on those of a sentient human being.: According to a successful practitioner, the {deal dentist ought to have firm hands, a strong back to remain for some time in an awkward stooping position, a perfect temper.and, above all, confidence tn herself, which she is able to communicate to her patients, .Women dentists\u2019 in England have been successful jn obtaining appointments at public institutions and sanatoriums, and- in future, should visiting dentists -Be-ehgaged for the able women will stand a fair chance of being chosen In many instances.Altogether the woman dentist has apparently come to stay.At present she does best when spe starts a practice of her own immediately ax the conclusion vf her training.as, should she be engaged as assistant to another dentist, his patients are apt to say he has got her services \u2018cheap\u2019 because she is a woman.That she still has a few prejudices to conquer is proved by the behavior of one man l who goes regularly to a woman when his teeth require attention, but insists that the fact shall be kept a secret.Though he believes in her skill sufficiently to benefit by it he has not the courage to recommend Hier to his friends.\u2019 THE ORANGE SEASON.This is the season of the year wheit it 1s a good plan to \u2018put up\u2019 oranges for use later.There is an abundant supply of nearly all varieties of this fruit in the markets.The ordinary way of preserving vranges is in rar- malade made from the bitter Seville variety.A dejicate conserve can be made from tese or \u2018blood\u2019 oranges, for which the following recipes are given in the New York \u2018Tribune\u2019: For a conserve free the oranges completely from rind and white tissue.Slice them across and remove all seeds, as they seem to impart a bitter quality to the preserve.For a cupful of pulp or two medium sized oranges use half a cupful of sugar and @ quarter of a cupful of water.Put the mixture into a pan lined with enamel and absolutely free from cracks or nicked corners where there may be danger of contact with the metal foundation beneath.Let it boil until the fruit is soft and surrounded by a jellylike syrup.A good way to test It is to pour a little of the juice Into a saucer and set the saucer on Ice.If It hardens to a soft jelly it is done.This conserve has a delicate and unique flavor that recalls the pomegranate \u2014 a sort of cross between that and the orange flavor.To add the rinds is a mistake, as they take from the pomegranate flavor and make the conserve taste more like an ordinary orange preserve or a marmalade.Reserve the rinds for use In the vrange extract, The rind from a blood orange is particularly good tor this purpose.A little of the syrup from this quaint preserve may be used to flavor French cream bonbons, cake frostings vr whipped cream desserts.It will color them a beautiful pink, besides imparting its flaver to them.A refreshing drink is prepared by diluting this syrup with some ice cold water.Another blood orange preserve which is not so rich calls for half a county council s¢Kodlg, it seems prob- 1 HERE'S a HOME DYE That was perfectly lawful.Tt was not wight, ho ssid.to treat two-thirds of (he - 3e VEL woe = LE .| note or stamps.cupful of sugar and a cupful of water to a cupful of sliced fruit.This makes a preserve with a more pronounced - tang, but a less jellylike syrup.: For a blood orange jam remove every particle of white inner skin, carefully separating the thin coating from each lobe.Measure the soft pulp thus obtained in cupfuls, * and for every two cupfuls use the same quantity of water and half as much sugar, just as you would for preserve ing by the last recipe given.Boll it till jellyllke.This jam, like the preserve, has a very faint but delightful fragrance and recalls the pomegranate in flavor.THE IDEAL.Kindness of heart would seem to be the first quality in the Frenchman\u2019s ideal woman, to judge by the voting in a competition organized in a Paris newspaper to determine the ten most desirable attributes in woman.A thousand votes behind \u2018kindness of heart\u2019 come in the following order, \u2018devotion.\u2019 \u201ceconomy, \u2018intelligence,\u2019 \u2018amiability, \u2018fidelity,\u2019 \u2018patience,\u2019 and \u2018modesty\u2019 The quality with the fewest votes Is application, immediately preceded by humility and cleanliness.The ten tdeal qualities are not finally settled yet as the competition Is still open.A DAILY COOKERY RECIPE.Oatmeal Biscuit\u2014Put a

\u2018there's no one 1.ft to love me but thee, and I cannot stand thy weeping, my pretty one.Hush thee, my babe, hush thee!\u2019 - She whispered soft in the little one\u2019s ear as she took her upstairs to bed.About three weeks after the miserable date of Bell Robson's death and Philip's disappearance, Hester Rose received a letter from him.She knew the writing on the address well; and it made her tremble so much that it was many minutes before she dared to open it, and make herself acquainted with the .facts it might disclose.But she need not have feared; there were no facts told, unless the vague date of \u2018London\u2019 might be something to learn.Even that much might have been found out by the post-mark, only she had been too much taken by sur- Prise to examine it.It ran as follows: \u2018Dear Hester,\u2014 .\u2019Fell those whom it may concern, that I have left Monkshaven for ever.ino one meed trouble themselves about me; I am provided for.Please to make my humble apologies to my kind friends, the Messrs.Foster, and to my partner, William Coulson.Please te accept of my love, and to join the same to your mother.Please to give my particular and respectful duty and kind love to my aunt Isabella Robson.Her daughter Sylvia knows what I have always felt, and shall always feel, for her better than ï can ever pat into language, 30 I send her no message;

and what it was to be should not Imagine.She had no home to go to: for as Philip was gone away, she remained where she as only on sufferance; | she was willing to work, nay, would be thankful to take up her old life of country labor; but with her baby, what could she do?In this dilemma, the recollection of the old man's kindly speech and offer of assistance, made, it is true, half in joke, at the end of her wedding visit, came into her mind: and she resolved to go and ask for some of the friendly counsel and assistance then offered.It would be the first time of her going out since her mother's funeral, and she dreaded the effort on that account.More even than on that account did ashe shrink from going into the streets again.She could mot get over the impression that Kinraid must be lingering near; and she distrusted herself so much that it was a positive terror to think of meeting him again.She felt as though, if she but caught a sight of him.the glitter of his uniform, or heard his Well known Voice in only a distant syllable of talk.her heart would stop, and she should die from very fright of what would come next.Or rather so she felt, and so she thought before she took her baby in her arms.as Nancy gave it to her after puttinæ on its out-of-dvor attire.(To be continued.) \u201cBED-TIME STORIES \u201d SEVEN BIRDIES ON A BOUGH.Seven birdies on a bough Sang a song together.\u2018Spring is here!\u2019 they blithely trilied.\u2018All the air's with sunshine filled.Sing your sweetest, birdies, now\u2014 Hey for April weather!

room.The executive responsible for the hanging of the photographs have succeeded in their efforts to arrange them as artistically as it is possible to do,and some very interesting studies and some very daring slides, the latter in the figure class inaugurated this year, are to be found for artistic enjoyment or criticism.The exhibition was opened last evening to members, but will be open to the general public to-day until the 22nd instant, ladies being admitted every afternoon and on Tuesday and Thursday evenings.It would be invidious to pick out any exhibits apart from the prize winners, there being such a general state of excellence and extreme -variety, far too comprehensive to warrant it.The exhibition is well worthy of a visit, from an educational point of view, and the eatest

Appearance, New York, April 17.\u2014The Meadow- Brook team of polo piayers will have to be at their best in order to prevent the English poloists from wresting the in- terhational trophy away from them In the games this summer.The skill and fine horsemanship displayed by Captain Hardress Lloyd, captain of the visiting team, and of Cgptain H.H.Wilson, in the fleld at Georgian Court on Saturday against the cup defenders, presage this.Not only did the visitors play exceedingly well, but, mated as they were, with men whom they had never played with before, they gave the men who won the cup at Hurlingham the hardest tus- Ble of their careers as poloists to beat em.Saturday's game was an extraordinary one in many respects.The men who saw the play witnessed entirely out of the common\u2014adv - ries for an important trophy practising together.It was a history-making epoch in the sport of polo.Never ha vals for the.international cup been thus lined up.The laying of the American and the Englishmen on opposite sides afforded a fine chance to compare their styles of play and to analyze their skill as riders.It was particularly noticeable that Lloyd and Wilson rode in the pronounced English fashion\u2014upright, and sitting far back in the saddle.The Meadow-Brooks, t6 a great extent, had the American seat.They crouched.more or less, riding well forward on the horses\u2019 withers.Lloyd and Wilson \u2018played well.For men who had their sea lege with them.and without the advantage of practice ifn the field or horseback, thev showed fine form with the mallet.Their Judgment of distance was particularily good.and the way they carried the ball along.first on one side and then on the other of the pony, denoted complete mastery of the stick.SEALED TENDERS addressed

gave a reception to the lady associates whose assistance in the monster fair that was recently held by the association contributed to such a great extent to its success.The gymnasium at the club house on St.Urbain street was packed for two or three hours by the fair friends of the assockation.Mr.J.J.Ryan, as the host, literally had his hands full for moat of the time, receiving the visitors, but the rest of the members flocked to his assistance and as a result the ladies had a most pleasant afternoon.The gymnasium was decorated for the occasion with flags and bunting, -the predominant color being 6f course green.At ithe refreshment table, that was set along one side of the room, ladies were kept busy pouring tea.Those who officiated in this capacity were: Mrs.C.F.Smith, Mrs.Chas.J.Doherty, and Mrs.Arthur 8 Whitney.During the afternoon the musie.rendered by the orchestra was supplemented by selections from two of the guests, Miss Antoinette Saucier and Miss Irene Cummings, both contributing to the afternoon's programme.Towards the end of the afternoon, the Rev.Father McShane, the association chaplain, was asked to say a few words, and in the course of his remarks announced that the net financial return from the fair, at which most of the ladles present had assisted, was in the neighborhood of $6,- 000.He also mentioned that he was gratified in learning that the association had secured quarters for the summer at a place not far from the city and that the boys planned on inaugurating their new home by having a ladies\u2019 day.1 \u2014mageme NEWSPAPER

loath to endanger .ico by taking-so radical a step as sending American \u2018troops across the border to prevent further fighting.INTERVENTION MEANS WAR United States Congress Must Decide Policy to Protect Border Towns.Was, n, April 18\u2014President Taft felt last night that he has done personally all that can be done b chief executive to control the sttua- tion along the Mexican.border.and his advisers 'helleve that now Congress must say whether the situe- tion is grave enough to werrant intervention and its consequences.Through the State Department the edministration yesterday reiterated the representations made tô Mexico that affairs like that at Douglas last week must not be repeated.Instead of awaiting the customary period for a formal reply from Mexico, the Department asked for immediate assurances that there be no more fighting that endangered Americans in the border towns.Information was requested also as to what measures the authorities had taken to prevent future combats of this kind.Last night mo reply had been received from the Mexican authorities.The President is plainly worried.He talked but little, but the bulletins that came through the War Department and through the press were taken to him wherever he happened to be and read with fnterest.President Taft has shown to leaders of both the Senate and House the confidential correspondence dealing with Mexico.He feels that since the leaders in Congress have practically all the information he has, it is their duty to take any further action.The President himself has let it be known that no United States troops would cross the line unless authorized by Congress, and Secretary of War Dickinson confirmed that statement tonight.No one here doubts that intervention would mean war.War in Mexico, the President's advisers say, would mean a conflict that would rage for months, probably years.The topography of Mexico, the mountains, the insufficient means of quick communication, and a dozen other things that must be figured, would have to be met.Intervention would mean a long drawn out struggle in which the Mexican federals and the Mexican insurrectos might soon be found \u2018fighting side by side.Furthermore, intervention would be likely to aissi- pate all the good feeling that years of careful diplomacy has created between the Unitèd States and the Latin-American countries.rr EASTER
