but it could be easily shown that the work was one of urgent necessity and the time had come when it should be executed in the interests of the town, as well as the owners of the propérty along the streets where the improve- Ments were to be made.He conid tell the citizens that in consequence of the way in which the Park & Island Company had treated the town, tie expectation that sufficient revenue would be obtained from the present rate of taxes had Dot been realized; and taxes would have to be increased.In fact, residents were leaving the town because of the poor car service.It had been deemed expedient that the services of another counsel should be retained to aid Mr.Bisaillon, Q.C., in fighting the case now going on;

Windsor.In response to the question, \u2018Have the district Sunday-school and Epworth League conventions been held?it was shown that in many districts of the conference these conventions, or what was considered worthy substitutes for them, had been held.The report on the state of the work was presented by the Rev.W.W.Chantler, It was under consideration up till the time of adjournment, and not more than a good start had been made, Considerable discussion took place upon the attitude of worshippers in church, and the class of music used in some churches was somewhat severely criticised as being too operatic in its character.SABBATH OBSERVANCE.Wall Street Church was comfortably filled at the evening session, the two principal items on the programme being the address of Mr.John Charlton, M.P., Ph à subject, with which his name has \u201cen connected for many years that of ahbath observance, and the discussion of the temperance question.The Rev.Geo.McRitchie occupied the hair and on the platform with him \u201cere Mr.John Charlton, M.P., the Rev.Dr Ryekman, and the Rev.S.J.Hurhes, After the singing of a hymn the Rev.John Scanlan, secretary of the Lord's Dar Alliance, led in prayer, followed by à s\u201clo \u2018Oh, Happy Day,\u201d by Miss Rilance, Prano soloist of the Dominion Methodist Church, Ottawa.The chairman said the subjects of the ening were the most important that Fould come before the conference.The \u201cTW.Clipsham presented the re.Trt of the committee on Sabbath ob- rvance, The report deplored the ten- deney to secularize the Sabbath by rer- An legislation: approved the action of ?Ottawa District meeting in con- < demning the running of street cars, the | ndency of railways to increase Sundav traffic in passengers and goods; the following of ordinary occupations as in butter and cheese factories,Sunday bicycling and boating, and visiting that tends to lessen the sanctity of the day.MR.CHARLION'S ADDRESS.Mr.John Charlton was then introduced and spoke at considerable length.He began by referring to the magnitude of the subject.It has to do with the spiritual, religious and temporal welfare of the race.One day of rest and pri vilege was necessary and was instituted by the Creator.Two evidences of God's goodness to man were the safeguards provided in the institution of marriage and the Sabbath rest.God blessed the Sabbath Day and hallowed it; and in time it became part of the decalogue, but the latter said \u2018Remember the Sabbath Day to keep it holy\u2019 It was not a Mosaic institution but a part of the Ten Commandments and as binding as any of the other commandments.It rests on us as a command from Sinai.The observance of the Sabbath is in the interests of labor and the nation, and any law that made a man work seven days in the week robs him of a civil right.For this reason the state should interfere to protect the civil rights of the subject.À Sabbath observance enactment would not say that men should go to this church or that church, or do this or do that, but it would say to the corporations you must allow me liberty to go to church and Sunday-school or other places of worship.THE DEMAND FOR: LEGISLATION.The speeker gave a few reasons why there should be legislative interference on behalf of Sabbath observance, 1.It is the best institution that can be imagined, from a sanitary point of view, as a laboring man on the Sabbath undergocs cleaning and a change of conditions that.are a great benefit.2.It promotes a kind of education that cannot be obtained in the day- schools, 3.It is calculated to increase and pre: serve the Christian home.4.It promotes temperance and obedience to law, good morals and social purity.5.If established by law it secures the rights of conscience and religious liberty.It would emancipate, in the United States, °1,250,000 white slaves from Sunday labor.They are ground down because they are too poor to quit their employment, with starvation staring their families in the face.Legislation is needed, and how is it to be obtained?Mr.Charlton thought the only way to secure the needed legislation was for the electors to press it in every possible way.He then recounted the influences that #0 to obliterate the Sabbath.Among these were raflways that run many more trains on Sunday than necessary, and Sunday street cars.It wae wrong to run street cars on Sunday and equally wrong to ride on them.Sunday ex cursions should be nipped in the bud.Other evils were bicyeling on the Lord's Day and the Sunday newspapers.The several clauses of the report were then adopted seriatim.\u2019 REPORT OF THE TEMPERANCE COMMITTEE.The Rev.James Lawson presented the report of the committee on Temperance.It reported that it had learned with much satisfaction of the victory of the people of Ormstown, Que., by which all licenses were abolished in the village.The property of one of the hotels was subsequently purchased and arrangements made for conducting the hotel on temperance principles, and thus removing one of the strongest objections raised against the no-license agitation.It urged the friends of temperance everywhere to take advantage of the provisions of existing laws to secure prohibition over as large a territory as possible.2.\u2018That we recognize it to be the imperative duty of every Christian elec- | tor to give eurnest attention #>-all mati ters affecting the moral welfare of our | country, and we would urge our people generally to attend the political caucuses of their respective parties and force the issue of prohibition in every contest, provincial or federal, and to demand that prohibition candidates be re'ected.That when such is not selected, then to withdraw their vote and support from such party candidates.SCOTT ACT IN BROME.3.\u2018That in view of the important Scott act contest which is to take place \u2018on June 20 in the county of Brome, this \u201c1.a He conference herewith expresses its intense interest in the determined effort of the friends of prohibition to maintain \u2018he Scott act, which Tor so many years has been the law of the country.4.\u201cThat the conference confidently expects that every minister of our Church, and layman of the county of Brome will do the utmost in his power by vote and effort to secure a grand victory for prohibition in this important crisis.BROCKVILLE BY-ELECTION.5.'That this conference regrets that the members and adherents of the Methodist Church in Brockville, in the re- .cent by-election for the Dominion Parliament, allowed that contest to be carried on without any reference to the prohibition issue being raised.In view of the repeated declaration of the Methodist Church of the importan~e of the issue, we deem such neglect a serious dereliction of duty.6.\u201c That we commend the action of the Orange Grand Lodge in its recent decision to prohibit from membership in that body.ail persons engaged in the liquor traffic.We recognize in this an indication of the growing sentiment of the country against this destructive traf- fie, 7.\u201cWhereas, there is difficulty in separating between personal and official utterances, we therefore strongly deprecate and entirely repudiate such utterances as have been made on the part of any officials or representative men in the Methodist Church, as may tend to compromise the recognized position of our Church on the question of temperance and kindred moral reforms.THE PLEBISCITE.8.\u2018We cheerfully express our satisfaction with the manner in which the government acceded to our request in regard to the recent plebiscite, that when submitted it should be the single issue of prohibition.\u2018We rejoice in the fact that a large and decided majority of the\u2019 voting electors of Canada recorded their votes in favor of the total prohibition of the traffic in intoxicating liquor for beverage purposes.\u2018It is, however, a matter of intense dissatistaction and most profound regret that the Government of Canada has failed to keep faith with the prohibi- ticnists of the country, and has positive ly refused to give effect to the will of the people clearly and authoritatively expressed in the plebiscite vote given last September on the question of national prohibition.\u2018Further, it is the judgment of this conference that it is the imperative duty of the government to promptly -en- act a law for the entire suppression of the traffic in intoxicating liquor for beverage purposes throughout the whole Dominion of Canada.\u2019 \u2018We are pleased to learn that stepe: [are being taken to introduce the question of prohibition in the present ses- ston of parliament; and inasmuch as no less than 128 constituencies out ,of 213 in the Dominion\u2014being the large majority of 43\u2014having given very decisive majorities in favor of prohibitory legislation, we would make a most earnest appeal to the representatives of those constituencies to work for and support prohibitory legislation.9.\u2018We recommend that the following members of this conference, viz.: W.H: Lambly, J.H.Carson, the Rev.G.G.Huxtable, the Rev.James Lawson be appointed to act as members of the Dominion Alliance.A WARM DISCUSSION.- The first clause of the report was passed without discussion.When the second clause came up, it was suggested that the words \u2018press\u2019 and \u2018urge\u2019 be used intead of \u2018force\u2019 and \u2018de- was carried.Everything went along smoothly until the fifth paragraph was reached, that censuring the Methodists of Brockville for not making prohibition an issue in the recent by-election to the Dominion Parliament; and then there followed such a scene as is fortunately seldom witnessed in public gatherings of this character.When the paragraph had been read, the Rev.Mr.Winter, of Montreal, wished to know if the statements made were facts.\u2018The Rev.Mr.Philp characterized the paragraph in the report as a most intemperate one.AN AMENDMENT.À resolution was then made and seconded to strike out the paragraph altogether, The Rev.Mr.Winter said he knew for a fact that in some parts of the riding prohibition was an issue.The Rew.Mr.Thomas, of Maitland, gave a flat contradiction to the state ments contained in the paragraph.They were not facts.Mr.Wm.Coates, of Brockville, said he knew a good many who had made prohibition an issue in the campaign, and had fought hard for it, and he thought the man who had been elected would be as strong a supporter of temperance as his opponent.The Rev.W.Philp considered it beneath the dignity of conference to make any reference to the matter in the report.; MR.CARSON\u2019S VIEWS.Mr.J.H.Carson, secretary of the Dominion Alliance, said he kad tried to make prohibition an issue in the campaign, and had written to Brockville regarding it, but had not even been favored with a reply.He had never noticed anything in the papers about prohibition being an issue.The \u2018Christian Guardian\u2019 had also demanded that it he made an issue and no attention had go been paid to it.mand,\u201d and a reolution to that effect\u2019 This brought the Hev.Mr.Thomas again to his feet.He declared with emjhasis that what had been stated about prohibition not being made an issue Was-not a fact, and he would not be given the lie by any man.Mr.George M.Webster, Westmount, demanded that Mr.Thomas withdraw ithe statement.The chairman said he considered the language out of place.Mr.Quayle, of Ottawa, considered it presumption on the part of the confer- erce to take the matter up.If it was determined to do so, let it be stated specifically what Methodists are responsible for prohibition not being made an issue in the campaign, A vote was then taken on the motion to omit the paragraph and was defeated by a vote of 55 to 30.A COMPROMISE.The Bev.Salem G.Bland then moved that the following take the place in the paragraph in the report: \u2018That thie committee regrets that the prohibition question was not made distinctly and unmistakably an issue of the recent election in Brockville.Several other members spoke, after which Mr.Bland\u2019s resolution carried.ANOTHER STORM.Clause 6 carried, but when clause 7 was reached the storm broke out stronger than ever.The Rev.J.T.Pitcher moved that the clause be struck out.Utterances of that kind are so broad that they do not mean anything.It was a personal matter and intended only for a few.The Rev.Mr.Williamson seconded the motion.The Rev.Mr.Philp had no doubt the paragraph in the report was directed at certain men.It was beneath the dignity of conference to make such personal insinuations.Mr.W.H.Lambly said the statements regarding representative Methodists were garbled in reports of the House of Commons.The Rev.Mr.Huxtable renudiated the idea that Methodist ministers were going round the country speaking against prohibition and in favor of drinking.(Cries of \u201cVote, vote.\u201d) The clause in the report was again read by Mr.Lawson.The Chairman\u2014Who proves that to \u2018be true?I know some of the men aimed at and they are as strong temperance \u2018men as I am.A motion to adjourn was declared lost.Some one suggested that those who preferred the charges should substantiate them, which led the Rev.Mr.,PLilp to reply that they were not man- \u2018ly enough.; The Rev.Mr.Stevens deprecated the |idea\u201d of passing a report based on news- {paper ruinors.; By the time flings were getbing badly ried amrid considerable confusion.SUDBURY METHODISTS.The annual district meeting of Sud- bury \u2018district was held in Webbwood Methodist Church on May 29 and 30.The ministers and prebationers were found blameless in life, conversation and doctrine.\u201d The report of the conference board of examiners concerning the three probationers the Rev.Messrs.Ang- lin, Booth and Brace showed high qualifications, and they were recommended for promotion.The district reported a remarkable advance during the yeur, much of which was attributed to its very efficient supervision by the chairman, the Rev.A.B.Johnston, and a resolution of thanks by a standing vote was tendered him.The following: elections took place :\u2014 Journal secretary, the Rev.F.W.Var- ley, M.A.; statistical secretary, the Rev.W.W.Ryan; auditing committee, the Rev.W.W.Anglin and the Rev.Chas.Purvis; Sunday-school committee, the Rev.W.W.Ryan; Epworth League committee, the Rev.F.W.Varley; sustentation committee, the Rev.A.B.Johnston.The conference will meet in Owen Sound on June 7.Dr.Jones, Mr.C.A.Purvis, Capt.Davisand Mr.J.H.Row- att were appointed as laymen to attend conference.HAMILTON CONFERENCE.St.Catharines, Ont., June 8.\u2014The Hamilton Methodist Conference spent considerable time yesterday in listening to an address by Dr.Potts on the twentieth century fund, and the discussion of a resolution on the billeting system brought forward by Dr.Ross.The doctor described the latter as an imposition, and after considerable discussion a vote was taken by which the conference decided that in future the members must look to themselves, and residents will not be asked to make accommodation for delegates.| The Rev.A.B.Demill.of Demill Ladies\u2019 College, addressed the conference on behalf of a stronger suppost of educational institutions, especially ladies\u2019 colleges.Mr.H.P.Moore read the annual report of Albert College.Belleville.A resolution calling on th> Dominion G v- ernment to assume contro! of all

CONFERENCE.Belleville, Ont, June 6\u2014At yesterday morning\u2019s session of the Bay of Quinte Conference the report of the general conference fund local treasurer was presented, and showed a slight increase in the givings during the year.The Alma Ladies\u2019 College, St.Thomas, report was presented, a resolution passed recognizing the efficiency of the college, and commending it to parents.The committee on temperance presented its report.The report rejoiced in the growth of temperance sentiment as shown by the recent action of the Grand Orange Lodge, in excluding liquor sellers.It said, after noticing the plebiscite vote, to the interference of prominent politicians.In view of the large hesitate to affirm that the government has done wrong in refusing to enact a national prohibitory law but on the other hand, in view of the substantial majority for prohibition that was recorded in all the rest of the Dominion, it unhesitatingly and most emphatically affirmed that the absolutely negative reply which the government \u2018has given to the people\u2019s mandate which it itself solicited, by which it promised to be guided, met with strong disapproval and compelled them to hold from it their confidence, and they most earneatly called upon the representatives of the people in Parliament io accept the mandate of the electorate and carry it out by enacting such prohibition legislation as will fairly embody the will of the people as expressed at the polls.It further maintained that temperance people would never be permanently satisfied with anything short lof national prohibition.It endorsed the address of the General Superintendent, of a few days ago, and hoped that Christian men would fearlessly rebuke any political party that dared to break reform.After a few addresses the report passed.Dr.Shaw, of Montreal, was felicitously welcomed by the president, in whose father\u2019s house, thirty-five years ago, Dr.Shaw lived, as a probationer.The Rev.Dr.Duke, the Rev.C.E.McIntyre and Mr.R.Moment, were appointed a\" committee to prenare a resolution regarding the: Hon.J.I.Tarte's reported utterances regarding the -set- ernment number of a hundred is en- t tiers

6, 1899.Extraordinary trade conditions have been revealed by a table of the exports and imports of the United States, just issued by the Bureau of Statistics at Washington.Commencing with April of the year 1804, and ending with the pame month in 1898, the figures show a truly astonishing increase of exports, while during the same period the volume of imports steadily declined.Thus for the twelve months ending April, 1804, the exports totalled $008,034,419, but for the corresponding period ending April last the figures soared to $1,242,625,662.It should also be noted that during these six years the population of the country largely increased, which means a much jreat- er démand' for home consumptisü, \u201cYet it appears that this increase was suprilisd.while foreign trade expanded and, atqghe same time, imports fell off.For the twelve months ending with April, 1894, the imports were $92,047,951.In 1899 these figures fell to $670,100,317, or twenty-two millions less than they were in 1804.The excess in value of exportations over importations for the last year thus reaches the enormous sum of $573,- 516,845.The chief value of these figures lies in the glimpse they give of the vast resources of the United States as a competitor for the commerce of the world.What extent this commerce would reach were the protectionist incubus removed almost exceeds the powers of imagination.-\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 Last year there were killed in railway accidents in the United Kingdom about ope in a million of the population.This continuous slanghter has greatly roused

INVENTION.Sir Wilfrid Laurier denied in the House of Commons last night the report which came from Washington to the effect that a modus vivendi in regard to the Alaskan boundary was being arranged.The report was rather an alarming one to Canadians, inasmuch as it set forth arrangements which could hardly result otherwise than in tending to establish or ¢on- firm certain extraordinary claims Which the Americans have been trying to establish in regard to the northern slope of the mountains through which the passes to the Yukon district run.There can be no shadow of a doubt that, under any possible interpretation of the treaty defining the Alaska boundary, the northern slope of these mountains is British territory.It has alwaye been represented 80 ever on American maps, which claimed the uttermost for the American case.Yet the Americans tried to establish themselves at Lake Bennett in order apparently to facilitate the smuggling of American merchandise into the Yukon district.The Canadian police and customs posts have been established at the summit of the passes, where a provisional boundary has been established.It was reported from Washington a few days ago that an agreement had been reached between the British and American governments, according to which the Canadian military and customs posts were to be withdrawn from the summits of the passes and a sort of meutral territory open to both nationalities should be established extending apparently to Lake Bennett.The report had it that this was necessary in order to prevent bloodshed between the borderers of both nations.It was provided that mikitary parties from either nation might enter into the neutral territory when necessary to preserve order.The effect of this.arrangement would therefore be to make it possible for American troops to go az far as Lake Bennett to preserve order.Once there, of course, it might be pecessary to.stay there, and thus the Americans would nett, and would be tn possession of tet- .ritory between Skaguay, on the Pagifie;; and the navigable waters of the Yukpnig commerce, In possession of so much] the United States would have still further reason to postpone arbitration and settlement of the boundary question.Sir Wilfrid Laurier denied that there was any negotiation of such a modus vi: vendi, which was equivalent probably tq a reminder to Washington that there must be two parties to all negotiations, and Canada did not intend to consent to any such arrangement.| All that was under consideration, Sir Wilfrid explained, was the establishment of a provisional boundary at the height of land on the Dalton trail, which runs overland from the Chilkat and Dyea passes direct\u2019 to the Yukon river, below Fort Selkirk.A modus vivendi would almost certxinly delay the arbitration and settlement of the Alaska boundary question.: \u2014 CANADA\u2019S REPLY.One of the features of the campaign of misstatement in regard io the Alaska boundary negotiations, carried on simul-\u2019 taneously from Washington and New York, was a curiously audacious perversion of the influence of party politics upon the negotiations.It is notorious that the success of United: States politi-: cal parties in Presidential elections has often been made to turn upon the simplest and least important ingident of the foreign policy of an administration.An American administration could net afford to be straightforward or fair or moder- ments of other nations.It could not afford to ignore the slightest slip of a foreign ambassador, though betrayed into it as a private friend by the meanest and most despicable trickery by American politicians themselves.The betrayal of Sackville-West's private letter, into writing which he was lured as a political trick, and his being handed his pase ports by President Cleveland, was a notification to the foreign powers that their ambassadors thereafter have to live among the.Americans as among a people which would set pitfalls for them, treating them as enemies instead of guests, and willing to ruin them to serve their own political games.Had British governments and British peoples been inclined to treat American ambassadors so, it is doubtful whether the best of American ambassadors would have escaped.Even Lowell.in the midst of a hotly conteat- ed election, wrote a couple of humorous verses which were a capital hit against Lord Salistriry.They were passed sbout as his at a public banquet attended by establish a claim to a port on Lake Ben- | ate or courteous in many cases fogovern-\u2019 DAILY WITNESS.[ both Liberal and Conservative leaders, were enjoyed by both, and even used in the campaign.Lowell was in some anxiety about what might come of it, knowing how such an incident would be treated in the United States, but he never heard a whisper of reproach about the affair.They are not a nation of peanut politicians in the United Kingdom, and they have a standard of courtesy.There is some reason to hope and believe that the United States is leaving behind it the period of such meannees and discourtesy in international affairs, their new international complications being such es to render the value of gentlemanly international treatment extended to themselves better appreciated.Yet Mr.G.W.Smalley, who, as the London correspondent of the New York \u2018Tribune,\u2019 must have been ofttimes ashamed of the continual exploitation by » prominent American politicians of the prejudices of American electors against other nations, has apparently conceived the wicked idea of turning this phenomenon of American politics, well known and well understood in England, against the Canadians This, probably, was the origin of the despatch to the London \u2018Times\u2019 stating that Sir Wilfrid Laurier and the Liberals were obstructing a settlement of the dispute about the Alaska boundary, because Sir Charles Tupper and the Con- gervitives were bent upon making political capital out of whatever he might agree to; therefore, Sir Wilfrid preferred, it was concluded, a grievance to a settlement.The sufficient answer to this misrepresentation was afforded in the House of Commoné during the last few days, when Sir Wilfrid Laurier and Sir Charles Tupper and the parties they represented were discovered to be in perfect accord over the Alaska boundary question ; both were desirous that the question should be settled amicably and at once, but both were firmly united in the determination never to sacrifice Canada\u2019s rights.English people who know all about British parliamentary proceedings will under- \u2018stand thoroughly the significance of this reply to the misrepresentation that party politics in.Canada stand in the way of a settlement.t\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 | LORD KITCHENER'S GUERDON.' We have a good deal of sympathy with 2, Morley\u2019s dislike and distrust of the.jingo: spirit of militarism in which Great Britain's policy of expansion and impe- \u2018rialsm'is\u201d\u2019being carried out.There is no doubt that confidence in force rather than faith in righteousness has been uppermost in Europeah nations for many years, and that it is again taking posses- gion of Great Britain.Mr.Kipling\u2019s imperialism encourages this.Though he himself never loses sight of the fact that Britain's power is based upon her moral force, many of his admirers do not heed that part of his teaching.And no one disagrees with Mr.Morley in his disapprobation of the irreverent treatment of \u2018the Mahdi\u2019s remains.It was probably wise of Lord Kitchener to have his tomb, a most picturesque building though it was, destroyed and his body buried in an unknown spot, which could not be made a \u2018holy place\u2019 of pilgrimage ard an inspiration of rebellion.But there should have been no distribution of his bones among the soldiers and no attempt to make trophies of them.Eventually the skull was buried.But though this was a manifestation of disgusting barbarism, we cannot.see what is meant by the talk about the cruelty of the act.The bones of the greatest prince that ever sat upon the throne of England were treated, three hundred years ago, with similar igs noble vengeance.But such acta are hardly cruel to the friends and relatives of such men, for they are essentially tributes to their greatness.And the Mahdi.who was a merciful and religious maa, was also a great man ; the Khalifa was the tyrant and oppressor.We have no sympathy, however, with Mr.Morley's opposition\u2019 to Lord Kitchener so far as it ia based upon opposition to the policy of expansion and re-conquering the Soudan.The responsibility for that policy rested upon the British Government and Lord Cromer.Lord Kitchener's military sue- cess in carrying out the policy was a matter quite apart from the wisdom of the policy in general, and, granting that Lord.Kitchener was bound to earry out his orders, it must be admitted that he should be rewarded for carrying them out to the best of his ability, not rebuked because the.policy of his government was nbdt a wise one in the view of is opponents.If\u2019 military commanders are to be, in effect, influenced in their military-operations by considerations of the political wisdonf of what will follow the success of theif eam- paigns, they will seldom be successful, and to make politicians of soldiers on -ac- tive service is a dangerous policy, as\u2019 France has discovered.+ ANNIVERSARY AT COLDSPRINGS.Coburg, June 3\u2014A large and appreciative audience gathered at Coldsprings on June 1, to listen to an address on the \u2018Making of Canada,\u2019 by the Rev.Principal Grant, of Queen\u2019s University.The learned speaker dealt with his subject in a fourfold way, namely, materially, racially, internationally and constitutionally, and invested his address with the characteristic.charm which those who have read his books know so well, and which invests even the driest theme with interest.The proceedings were presided over by the Rev.R.F.Hunter, B.A, the anniversary of the induction of his pastorate being the occasion of the celebration.The Rev.A.Gadd, Anglican clergyman, Gore\u2019s Landing, followed the speaker with a brief characteristic address.Mr.Gadd said in his opinion it were well to send men like Dr.Grant to England to advertise the scholarly at- teinments of Canadian litterateurs, and cited in proof of his statement cireum- stances during a visit he had made to the Old Country, when he was often met with the questions, \u2018 You have been to Canada! Did you see Niagara Falls ?Did you see any red Indians ¥ Which had led him to think that many English thought Canada composed wholly of Niagara Falls and red Indians.A unanimous vote of thanks,couched in words of warm appreciation, brought the proceedings to a close.CONGREGATIONAL UNION.PROGRAMME COMPLETED FOR THE ANNUAL MEETING.The annual session of the Congregational Union of Ontario and Quebec will open in the First Congregational Church, Bramtford, Ont., on Wednesday morning next at 10 o'clock.An attractive and important programme has been prepared, in which Montrealers take a leading part.In addition to the annual meetings of the various societies comprising the Union, there are to be a number of special conferences and debates on special subjects.Wednesday afternoon will be devoted to a discussion on the amalgamation of the different societies, to be opened by Mr.8.P.Leet, B.C.L., of this city.In the evening the addresses of welcome will be delivered and replied to, and the chairman of the Union, the Rev.J.W.Pedley, of London, Ont., will deliver his annual address, his subject being, \u2018The minister's burden.\u2019 On Thursday morning the chairman for 1900 will be elected.In the evening a public home missionary meeting will be held, with Mr.Charles Cush- ing, B.C.L: of this \u2018city, \u2018in \u2018the chair The speakers will be the Rev: Mésers.À.W.Richardson, M.D.Kingston, W.McIntosh, Ottawa, and G.A.Mackenzie, Stratford.On Friday morning there will be a young people\u2019s conference, conducted by the Rev.- W.J.Hindley, Guelph.Addresses: \u2018The intellectual life of our young people,\u2019 the Rev.W.8.Pritch- ard, B.A., Granby.\u2018Young men and the Church,\u2019 the Rev.J.K.Unaworth, B.A, Scotland.This will be followed by a Sunday-school conference, conduct ed by Mr.8.P.Leet, Montreal.Friday evening will be foreign mie- sionary evening.There will be a public meeting, with the Rev.T.B.Hyde, president of the O.F.M.8, in the chair.Addresses will be given by outgoing mis sionaries, Mra.Currie, Miss Melville, Dr.A.Y.Massey, B.A, R.C.Moffat and the Rev.F.A.Woodside.On Saturday morning, the Rev.R.Hopkin, Montreal, will read a paper on \u2018The ideal state and how to reach it.\u2019 The annual Union sermon will be preached on Sunday morning, by the Rev.Morgan Wood.In the afternoon there will be a Sunday-school mass meeting.The features of Monday, the closing day, will be: 9.30 a.m., paper, \u2018The next step in temperance reform,\u201d the Rev.ED.Sileox, Parie;

that their business is mostly done on orders taken and delivered without carrying any or much stock; that, therefore, unless the customs detain and hold ail goods, the entries of which are doubtful as to the declared values, until the matter is finally settled and the full duty and penalty which the law de mands is exacted there is little chance of the offenders being punished; that the wholesale houses which have to contend against this rascally unfair competition carry heavy stocks, varying from $200,000 to $700,000, which could be attached to pay for any frauds which they might commit, and that this is a sort of hostage for their good behavior, which the government \u2018have not had reason to suspect; that, therefore, as citizens owning property end having a large stake in the country, employing à large number of people and contributing largely to Dominion, provincial and municipal revenue, they are entitled at least to the fullest measure of protection which the law allows aguinst foreigners and aliens who are not content to compete on equal terms.\u2019 Special reference was made to the case of Fitzgibbon, Schafheitlin & Co, regret being expressed that it was not concluded, and to the case of Messrs.Levison Bros., the agents of the Gold Medd] \u2018Drags \u2018Goods Company, of New York, concerning which regret: was ex- predeed that a compromise had been allowed.The resolution recommended that no entry for an amount of over a hundred dollars be accepted by the customs from any broker or other party than the owners of the goods, unlees the broker or agent assumes the respon- aibility of the maid entries and is a responsible party in case of action being taken by the government.A copy of the resolution in full will be sent to the various boards of trade in Canada, requesting similar action, also to the Premier, Minister of Customs and members of parliament for Toronto.SCAVENGING ECONOMIES, Result of Emancipation From Aldermanic Interference, THERE WILL BE A SUBSTANTIAL BONUS FOR THE MEN AT THE END OF THE YEAR.\u2014 The emarftipation of the scavenging department from aidermanic interfer ence, largely the result of the good work done by Ald, Ames in the Health Committee, continues to bear most gratifying results, Though the staff has been somewhat reduced, thanks to the superior class of men employed, and to the incpessed discipline within the de partment so much more work is being accomplished on a reduced expemditure that Mr.Doré, the city senitary eo gineer, expects to end the year mot only within the appropriséion, bat a g many bundred doileus te .At any rate, thomgh thie ie usually the heaviest tima of the year v enging department, money is being resd- ily saved from every week's appropni tion, and more waggens of refuse aré being removed from.the city every day than for the corresporiding day last year.Sume of the saving in the depart: ment is due to the short haul required for the refuse from the centrel part of the city, which is being dumped in the Imrbor on site of the new high level pier now in course of construction, but most of the reduction in the cost is due to the reorganization of the department.being made, eves to the inciners: erably reduced.;

crease of our regular business advances in Canada of $3,500, and in the increase in assets readily available held in other countries of $2,300,000.The Loans and Discounts of all the Banks have increased during the year $34,000,000, but of this amount $9,000,000 is represented by an increase in call loans in Canada, a class of loan not made by tbis Bank.We have, as you will notice, during the last year taken advantage of the high prices ruling for Bonds in the United States and realized about half our holdings, 'the proceeds being at present emn- ployed in short loans in London, New York, and foreign markets.It ie hardly necessary to point out that the Statement is a strong one, as we hold assets readily available of over fifty percent, against our Liabilities to the public, and we can draw from foreign sources to meet any large demand, without in any way restricting or curtailing our advances in Canada.This reserve carried at low rates, together with the excessive competition in Banking, will explain why our profits do not show a greater increase for the year, notwithstanding the employment of eo much more capital.I think, however, that even in that respect the shareholders must be satisfied with the results, which have been arrived at by very conservative-esti- mate.When business is good, and the country prosperous, very little need be.said, and I believe that with reepect to the present condition of affaire in Canada there can scarcely be two opinions.There is a feeling of buoyancy apd elation regarding it that appears to be thoroughly justified by actual facts.There is hardly a branch of trade that is not prospering.The farmers are receiving good prices for their products, the government show increased revenues, the railways increased trafics, stocks of all sorts have appreciated in value, while the future wealth which our mining and forest industries are expecting to realize | for this country is beyond computation.The only very unfavorable feature in sight is the excessive increase in call loans of $9,600,000, most of which I am afraid is occasioned largely by speculative operations, some of them of dubious value.This condition will probably correct itself, and may occasion individual losses to speculators, but should not affect the general prosperty.We are not singular in our present fortunate position, as there ea to.pe a universal wave.of aver.most.of the gount ey ody oa \u2018on the Continent manufactories are taxed to the utmost capacity to meet the demands of commerce.The condition of the United States, from its geographical position, must always have a certain influence upon our \u2018own, and I am pleased to note that they are enjoying & state of prosperity to which they have been strangers for \u2019 \u201c GENERAL \u2018STATEMENT, 2th APRIL, 1809, LIABILITIES.Capital Sioek.ve \u2026.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.Rest Unclaimed Dividends .4000 00 we en se 0000 Half-yeariy Dividend, payable ist \u2018Jane, \"1883.Notes of the Bank in Clrulation nee eee Deposits not bearlig\u2019 interest Deposits bearing interest .Balances dus other banks in Canada Balance\u2019 ot\u2019?Profits carried forward = un 2 \u201c we se sr se se oe er eens oo $12,000,000.00 «.§ 6,000,000.00 : 1,102,792.72 C8 1,108, 792.72 3280.oi 600,000.ee te oo os 7,704,974.78 $19,704,974.73 51,888,508.78 $71,508,567.51 ASSETS.Gold and Silver coin current .Government Demand Notes.Deposit with Dominion Government quired by Act of Parliament for security of general bank note airculation \u2026 Due by Agencies of this Bank and other\u2019 Banks in Foreign Zountries .\u2026.Due by Agencies of this Bank nd othor banks in Great Britain .Dominion and Provincial Sovernment Securities.United States Railway Bends .Notes and Cheques of other Banks .Rank Premises at Montreal and Branches .Current Loans and Discounts.(rebate td roserved) Assets other \u2018Securfties end Debts secured by.mertgage or otherwise Overdue dedis not specially secured (loss provided\u2019 tor) .Bank of 'Montresi, Montreal, 30th April, 1899, THE GENERAL MANAGER.Mr.Clouston said: \u2014 Following my usual custom, I will Dow proceed to furnish explanations of the important changes in our general Matement, as compared with that of the same date last year.I may say that the Directqrs gave their careful consideration to the request made by one of our shareholders at our lest annual meeting, that the Statement should be issued in parallel columns;

that he was to be president of the company, but that the charter bad not yet been obtained, and that if they returned later he would give them positive information.Had plaintiff or his brother gone back to get the necessary information in a few days, defendant would have told them that the charter had not been granted, and all the subsequent trouble, would have been avoided.Plaintiff imprudently rushed into a contract with Hogmard and Bellingham, trustees of the company, and there is nothing to show from the legal standpoint that defendant was in any way connected with the bargain.Under these circumstances, the Court must come to the conclusion that there was no proof of fraud or collusion on the part of Bickerdike with any person or pérsons against plaintiff, and the action must be dismissed.5 = THE BIBLE OF ST.MARK.A FINE ADDITION TO THE Y.MXX.LIBRARY.Dr.Alexander Robertson's \u2018recent and valuable work, \u2018The Bible of St.Mark, descriptive of St.Mark\u2019s Church, Venice, has just been added to the.library of the Young Men\u2019s Christian Association.\u2018The volume contains elghty-two fine illustrations, revealing with great- Ta nd ais rey Deer pe ti n of the Ma Dare M spé ex hid Dr.Robe io féys: \u201cThe religion.the old Venetians, as disclosed'fn St, Mark's Church, was altogether biblical.Original- Iv there was litle inscgibed upon its walls and domses in sculptuts, texts: and mosalc, that was not drawn directly and wholly from the Jewish and Chrietian scriptures.\u2019 Christ is \u2018the keystone of every arch of the facade.\u2019 Says Mr.Ruskin, quoted by Dr.Robertson: \u2018Christus, Christus vincit,Chris- tus regnat, Christus imperat, rings in the eupolas and echoes round the vaults and galleries of the marble structure.\u2019 To fill a church with histories ip mosaic of the Old and New Testament was recommended by'Grogpry, Bishop of Nysda, in tue fourth century.For in theme days.the people were largely illiterate, and there were no bible to the few who could read.\u2014 : ROYAL TEMPLARS.Westmount Council, R.T.of T., which was instituted last November, now bas 55 members, and' is in a vigorous condition.Elm Hall has been engaged for the future meetings of the council, and an ehtertain- Dent was given to mark the opening on Thursday night last.Dr.A.Cowan, Select Councillor, presided.There were two initiations.The programme consisted of plaro solos by Mrs.Moore and Miss Ken- wocd.The former also gave a whistling solo.Songs were aung by Mr.Degru\u201chr, Charles Hodge, Mr.Anderson, Mr.Moare, tnd Mr.Werry, tae latter composed specially for the occasion.Mr.Moore's comic songs and cornet imitations were particularly amusing.A récitation by Mrs.(Dr.) Cowan, and a cornet solo by Mr.A.B.Parker, were greatly appreciated, and Master Degruchy delighted everybody with bene selections.Refreshments - werc al- terwards served.Metropolis Council had its eleetion of officers on Friday night, with the following Tesults: Select Councillor, Bro.S.Wilson: Yice-counctllor, Mrs.Wilson:.chaplal ,Bro.Deacon;- R.C., Brn, Clark;

Mikel started.He thought of his own dreary deathbed\u2014there would be no children, no grandchildren, hardly any rela- uves or friends around it, and he felt strongly drawn towards his companion after hearing him assert his intention of remaining in his native village.He had oiten regarded him with a stealthy jealousy, mostly om account of his youth.but now a softer feeling seemod to leaven the interest he naturally felt in one who was really his pupil, and over whose career he had involuntarily watehed for some years.Beveral times he began to tpeak, then broke off suddenly, as if unable to command his emotions.Nicolas, sbiorbed 1n his own sombre reflections, did not heed these moments of wild ab- traction, in which the coolness and intrepidity of the old trapper seemed merged in a spasm or convulsion of feeling, which at length mastered him entirely.Nicolas, turning to reach his Fipe from the table, encountered sudden- J the sad and questioning gmze of his inend.: \u2018What is it ails thee, Mikel le Caron ?fe exclaimed, in great perplexity.\u2018There i a great trouble in the eyes, a terrible \u2018Me upon the forehead.Speak\u2014I am Not one that tattles again.it is any feet, you cap trust it with me, Come.I Vill wear a ngw name : Nicolas-qui-ne- Parie-pas, like the rapide that empties \u2018ato Lac Calvaire, l'iou dost forget that the \u201cParle pas Tale\u201d does speak in some seasons.\u2019 Nay, then,\u2019 said Nicolas, bending forward earnestly and looking at Mikel with » his honest soul in his melancholy TOWN eves, \u2018in all seasons you may de- Pend upon me.When the winds ruffle the pools roughest, when the snows flood the babbling streams, when the crows fill will keep silence.Mikel, I mean it.I will swear, if you wish it\u201d \u2018Lauriere,\u201d said Mikel, much moved.and a radiant softness illumining his hard old face\u2014\u2018Laurière, thou art a good child, But you need not swear, neither is my secret worth the name.I have already told you, or you have already guessed.I have been foolish, and now I am old.There «re two bad things .to be old, and to have been foolisb.That 1s what I meant when I said a moment since it was sad to be old.Nothing can be done any One learns to more.Life does itself.suffer.\u201d \u201cTo suffer\u2019 and Lauriere repeated the words softly, under his breath.\u2018Once no man was afraid to suffer.Now we try to smooth out every wrinkle, roll away every stome, cut down every tree, lay snares for every passion, every appetite.Well, are we any ihe better for it ?For the latter, a little.My ancestors were gentlemen, but ihey were not ashamed of being seen drunk.I am a laboring man\u2014forest ranger for the county of Yamachiche, an office destitute of uniform, of honor, respect.and importance\u2014yet I never drink to excess.Well, if not for sin one \\nust suffer for something.And, after all, one suffers for what one has set in motion one\u2019s self.\u201c Well, that is sad,\u2019 said Nicolas.An intense sympathy seemed to be manifesting itself in his heart with all that Mikel spoke of, and he longed to find suitable words that Might convey that sympathy to a bleeding heat.Yet he felt inexpressibly stupid, slow, wandering, as he followed, from under drooping lids the motions that Caron made from time to time.\u201cIt would have been better if he had never come back,\u201d said the \u2018rapper, moodily, beating one brown hand vpon the other.And Nicolas knew that he meant Magloire.\u2018 Ah, not that,\u2019 said he, gently.\u2018Mag- loire is kind in his heart.He is too clever to be lost to the world, living here in Bourg-Marie.You yourself would be proud of him if you saw him in his new home, with his new friends, and all hia proper surroundings.One cannot tell here what he is really : it is all go different \u201cLet it be as different as you will growled the trapper, \u2018there are a few things that are the same all the world over.And these things my grandeon, Magloire, has forgotten, if he ever knew.But I will not allow him to disturb my last years.I have disowned him, Lau- ridre.Lauridre\u2019s melancholy dark eyes looked their pity.\u201cThat is bad ; it will make him so very | angry, so bitter.\u2019 \u2018Not so angry nor so bitter as his copduct hae made me.2 The law of loved , TUESDAY, JUNE 6.for you and such as you\u2014you are just Hke your father ; he was only half a trapper, afraid of weeing the animals caught, or hearing their cry of pain\u2014 but another law for me, Mikel le Caron.I tell you I have disowned him.Let him stay as long as he may, I will not seek him, and should he seek me, I will receive him as a stranger, en vérité, as Mr.Murr-r-r-ay Carson.Voila un bel nom! C\u2019est un nom infame ! Oui-da, and when he goes, I make no comment, no inquiry.I write no letters, I receive his politely if signed Mr.Mure-r- ray Carson; if not I burn them unread.When I die, it will be seen that what I own is not for him.Cadédia, no.I should think not.I shall give it to the Church\u2014the proper receptacle for wealth.\u2019 , Mikel caught his breath and looked hard at Laurière, a look that gave the latter pain.He turned away his head and rose from his chair.\u2018It will he better that I say good- evening, Mikel, and leave you.Another time.It is true I had something to say, but it will do another time.You are\u2019 disturbed, unquiet, dietrait ; you say things perhaps you do not want me to hear\u2014\u2019 \u201cWhat things have I said that you might not hear, quel diantre ?Lau- \u2018rière, mon enfant\u2014Laurière, Nicolas, toi \u2014listen! Let me only speak\u2014let me only speak tell these things to rome ear beside that of the curé; let me be ap sured of someone\u2019s friendehin, someone's love.My God! I have said it.\u2019 \u2018Said what\u2019 queried Lauriére, his heart bursting with every beat, and a hunger rising in that heart that now could only be appeased one way.Mikel, rising, looked from his superior height upon Nicolas as upon some favorite child with the counterpart of Nie- olas\u2019s hunger in his straining eyes and.his faltering voice.He locked Lau- rière\u2019s hands between his own as tears \u2014rare, rare tears\u2014gathered in hia sunken eyes.\u201c Said that I needed friendship, solace, love\u2014said that my heart was dry for the lack of it, caking like the old brown earth which looks so hard and cold nl though there ia plenty of soft living green underneath that cracking crust.Say, Nicholas, thou too\u2014thou didst have this fealing * Thou wert not satisfied to live alone\u2014thou, teo, enfant, mon fils ¥ (To be Continued.)
