be strenuously dened that McKinley imperialism is to be extended into China.Secretary Hay Heciared in his note of July 3 that the administration had no plan or intention tu seize or oecupy any part of China, and that \u2018the policy or the Unitea States was to preserve China's territorial and administrative entity.\u2019 ; But the most potent inituences behind Le administration are working to modi- 1y this resolution, and some of the administration leaders anticipate that events wili so shape the Mckinley policy that the President can explain to the people that he could not help himself, that the land was forced upon him, and that he considered it his sacred duty, in the cause of peace and humanity, to ac cept a slice of -China, set up a permanent military establishment there and govern it for the glory of the United States and the advancement of trade.There has been no public declaration of tins policy, and there will be none.I'he fact is known to but few, but \u2018The World\" is informed by one who las liinerto always been right about Mr.Moixiniey\u2019s plans that many hundred squire miles of Chinese territory will, in the course of events, inevitably be breught under the protection of the United States.They will be governed in vownial style.The United States will then take its full share of responsibility with England, Germany and Russia\u2014 the only three powers strong enough to exercise a controlling influence for opening the whole Orient to trade._ :\\ plan of government for the Philip- jines is also rapidly taking definite form since the election.The permanent administration will be modelled upon the British plan in Canada.There will be a governor-general appointed by the President.There will be a native house of representatives, and local self-government will be extended as rapidly as the peuple of the various islands show them; selves able to practice self-government.But the governor-general will be supreme.He will have veto power over all legislation and important appointments.In other words, the governor- zeneral will rule the people and the resident will rule the governor-general.FRENCH GUN SECRET.INFORMATION WAS NEITHER PURCHASED NOR STOLEN.New York, Nov, 19.\u2014A new, a ér retell of the dass whether the field gun with which the United States army is to be equipped is of native invention or based upon knowledge obtained of the new French field gun, was developed here to-day.Officials at the State Department emphatically denied that General Porter or any of his subordinates had anything to do with acquiring the secret of the gun.It was stated that the information was obtained by an officer who visited France last summer, that it was not purchased or stolen, but that his technical knowledge enabled him, after an examination of the mechanism of this gun, to draw the plan of its construction.STANDARD OIL MONOPOLY, UNITED STATES ROADS ACCUSED OF DISCRIMINATING IN FAVOR OF THE COMPANY.Washington, Nov.19.\u2014The Industrial Commission on Saturday made public an affidavit made by Mr.Henry D.Lloyd, author of a bok known as \u2018Wealth Against Commonwealth,\u201d in response to charges made by Mr.John D.Archbold, of tne Standard Oil Company, in his testimony before the commission.In his testimony Mr.Archbold reflected upon the caracter of the book, and motive of its author, saying it was one- sided and unreliable, and mtimating that Mr.Lloyd hoped to make something trom the oil combine through the persecution of the Rice case against the company.All these charges are denied by Mr.Lloyd, who says that the statements made by him \u2018are based entirely upon official and court records.He charges direct connection between ihe Standard Oil Company.and the cld Soutk Improvement Company of Pennsylvania, and says that occurences since the publication of his book indicate the continuance to- the Standard Company to within recent times, of railway favors made to the Improvement Company.In this connection he refers to the testi mony taken by the Interstate Commis \"sion in Boston in 1898, going to show that the Boston and Albany ilway is \u2018under-billing cars of the oil trust to such an extent that in some cases half of such specials in Massachusetts went ree.Mr.Lloyd also says: \u2018The evidence taken in the investigation in the early part of 1900 by the Canadian Parliamentary Committee, if correctly repori- ed, seems to indicate that the same Youth Improvement Company system substantially has been extended by the Canadian railways to the oil trust, and that these railways have been putting the \u201cprice of transportation down for the favored customers and up for the thers.\u201d Just as the Supreme Court of \u2018Jhio found the railways of that state doing for the same organization in 1885 SPARKS LODGED IN HER HAIR.Brantford, Ont., Nov.19.\u2014Miss Grier, teacher at Mazle\u2019s school, was the \u2018vie- \u2018im of a most

Nov.19.\u2014From a high English financial authority, who is closely in touch with American railway affaus, it is learned by a \u2018Herald\u2019 London correspondent that plans are maturing for the absorption of the Erie and the Wabash system by the New York Central.Mr.Wiliam K.Vanderbilt has been quietly buying Erie in the open market and has also been gathering up Pennsylvania.Whether the New York Central i8 to acquire the Erie by purchaëa or by lease is not yet known.\u2018Lhe public announcement of the deal may be expected within a fortnight.The chief obstacle had been the disinclination of the Vanderbilts to take over the lines of the Mississippi, but negotiations are now pending for turning over the Wabash lines between the Mississippi and Kansas City to the Atcheson system.ee RED DEER SHOT AT QUEBEC.Quebec, Nov.19\u2014Yesterday afternoon the few promenaders on the Grande All6e were startled by the appearance of a deer crossing the street from the direction of the Cove fields, and running up towards the Parliament Buildings.The provincial policemen on duty also noticed the animal and gave chase, but the deer jumped the fences and made off along the street, followed by the constables, until it was finally run down in a yard in d\u2019Artigny street, when it was found with its legs broken in iry- ing to clear the fence.By orders of a veterinary surgeon it was shot to put it out of pain.It weighs a hundred ard twenty pounds.THE REV.C.E.MANNING \u2014 SKETCH OF THE PASTOR CALLED TO DOMINION SQUARE.The Rev.C.E.Manning, who has been called to the pastorate o f the

BOER RESISTANCE A SENSELESS ENTERPRISE.London, Nov.19.\u2014The Brussels correspondent of the \u2018 Times\u2019 says :\u2014\u2018Professo Molengraaf, one of the highest a i- ties on South African affairs, who pass ed many years in Pretoria, and was a witness of all the recent events in South Africa, has now come back to his native town, Amsterdam.He characterizes the continuation of the Boer resistance as a senseless enterprise, and says that the independence of the Boer Republic is definitely lost.The guerilla war continued by disorganized bands of Boer marauders he describes as only calgulated to cause needless bloodshed.Prof.Molen- graaf gives high praise to Lord Roberts's strategy and the English army\u2019s bravery \u2014.THE OTTAWA \u2018JOURNAL., The Ottawa \u2018Journal\u2019 of Saturday last is\\a twenty-four page paper, containing an\" illustrated description of the new Hoe perfecting press, capable cf printing twenty-four thousand copies an hour, which it has just installed.The \u2018Journal\u2019 takes occasion to restate its position as a perfectly independent newspaper.The \u2018Journal\u2019 is a paper which manifestly takes reat pains to be perfectly fair toward all public parties, public men corporations and individuals alike.And it consistently advocates and defends the public interests as it sees them.The \u2018Journal's\u2019 progress and properity are evidences of a growing appreciation we hope among Canadian people for honest, fearless, truth-speaking journalism.For twenty-seven years the Rev.John Geddes, of the parish of Mains, Dundee, Scotland, has resided in Canada.He was in mission work in Ontario, and spent five years near Barrie, after which he went to the North-West, and e in mission work south of Moose Mountain.There he spent four years in mie- mon work, and was placed on the retired list of ministers some ten years sinoe.He will sail for Scotland on the \u2018Lake Champlain\u2019 on Thursday morning, with the intention of spending the remainder of his life in the old land.He describes the progress of the country south of Moose Mountain as very satisfactory.A STRANGE CONFESSION Man Gives

Right Man for the Position.HIS APPOINTMENT HAILED WITH SATISFACTION.\u2014 Ç The announcement made in the \u201cWitness\u2019 on Saturday that Mr.G.B.Reeve had been appointed manager of the Grand Trunk in succession to Mr.Hays Was a genuine surprise to local railway men.It was understood that Mr.Reeve bad definitely retired from public life, He was not an old man, but, as he said to a \u2018Witness representative, he had worked hard for most of his life, and he wanted a rest.That rest he had amply provided for by securing a beautiful home in Californie, which had exercised his thought for years.He never meant to stagnate, but confidently looked forward to a gentle activity amid flowers and oranges, or in the entertainment of such friends as might drop in upon him (he was to be close to a railway)\u2014an activity which would keep him fresh and wholesome.At the same time, there wag a concen- sus of opinion that the right man had got the position.Mr.Reeve was thoroughly \u2018au fait\u2019 with traffic conditions, A BOY PREACHER LARGE CONGREGATIONS AT FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH.In spite of the pouring rain Suite a large congregation attended the First Baptist Church yesterday forenoon to hear Master John Cooke, the boy prescher prooiaim tbe 8ospel as be understands it.The preliminary exercises, including some plain speaking about the easily-besetting sing of many professing Christians, was conducted by the \u2018elder brother,\u2019 who &ccemparies the boy preacher, and who seems to be pretty well matured mentally, moially and physically.He announced that bis brother \u2018Jack\u2019 usually got his texts from the audience, but at the desire of the pastor of the church, Jack,\u2019 would select his own text for this time, but in the evening, he would preach from a text selectod for him by the audience.\u2019 The text chosen was from Rev., chap.xxi., and verse 4, but the sermon wes about equally applicable to a hundred other texts which might be selected from the New Testament, and was more of a rambling evangelical lecture than a connected sermon.Ip the evening the church was crowded, end after a short addrèss from the \u2018elder brother,\u2019 the boy preazher unlertook to answer any questions and explain any 012 \\ IN a A ve 7 \\ ey / CF which Was 80 Important upon a system like the Grand Trunk ; he had grown up with the system ; he understood the methods and policy of American lines, from his long connection with the Grand Trunk and Chicago at Chicago ; he had long been on the most intimate terms with the leading men in the American railway world ; he knew the Grand Trunk in a general way as perhaps no other official could possibly know it ; he was still vigorous, with a great capacity for work, and he was personally popular with all the men in the service.The appointment was, therefore, hailed The story told by Vasseur is to the effect that he worked as a farm hand for | im the month of the alleged murder.He adds that one might as he was asleep in warm, he was awakened by Jas.Elliott, who had come in, to unharness a horse, ; and waggon.Vasseur pretended to sleep\u2019 and did not reply when asked by Elliott why he was sleeping there and not at\u2019 the house.When Elliott left the coach-! house Vasseur arose and proceeded to examine the back of the waggon, where there was a square box which he thought | contained liquor.While he was thus engaged Elliott returned and baked him ~| what dé was doing there.A gharrel'en?sued and \u2018Elliott produced a revolver.Vasseur snatched at the

served a short sentence in jail.At the time of the visit of the grand jury he says he managed to escape from the jail by walking out with the jurymen, \"for some time, afterwards shipping as a sailor

been between this city and Toronto, having no settled occupation.He left Cornwall on Friday night and on Saturday surrendered himself to the police.CAN TRACE NO MURDER.The detectives at once made inquiries as to the truth of Vasseur\u2019s story, and ascertained that although there used to be a family named Elliott living at How- ick, no one of that name nor anyone else was murdered there at the time alleged by the prisoner.Nor did any \u2018prisoner escape from the Montreal jail at the time that Vasseur claims to have escaped.Vasseur was safely lodged in the detectives\u2019 office on Champ de Mars street, and was brought before Recorder Weir this morning on a charge of lunacy.The man is about five feet eight inches in height, and has the walk and ap ance of o sailor, indeed, but certainly net thaf of a soldier.Among other statements which he made was oné to the effect that his father had been an ambassador.Recorder Weir remanded the for eight days, so that he might prisoner

the executive regretted the departure of Mr.Hays, whose work had been so much appreciated, it at the same time was sure that in Mr.Reeve the system would be admirably served.Mr.Reeve, who knew the Grand Trunk so well, ould > dy seconded by - capable offi- {cérs, and the work which had | {done by Mr.Haya woukl be prior , \u201cMf Price made a flattering reference to \u2018Mr.McGuigan as general superintendent\u2019 of the road, which was now in a good condition, and in connection with which \u2018he denied the rumor that a Canadian board of directors was to be appointed.George Bell Reeve, the new general manager, was born on Oct.23, 1840, in the county of Surrey, England, and entered the service of the Grand Trunk in tent, from which, after two years, he was appointed telegraph operator.A year later he was promoted to train de- spatcher, which exacting position he filled with credit until 1865, when he was made a relieving agent.His promotion ; was rapid after that.In 1866 he became a station agent, and in 1873 he was selected to the position of assistant general freight agent.In {his department his work was recognized as being thorough, and he was promoted in 1881 as trafic manager of the Chicago & Grand Trank.In 18% his duties were materially inoreased by his appointment es traffic manager of the Chicago-Saginaw & Mackinaw.While at Chicago during the great World\u2019s Fair his departments handled a large percentage of the eastern business.When Mr.Hays came to Canada as general manager of the Grand Trunk, and reorganized the various de: partments, he chose Mr.Reeve as geperal traffic manager\u2019 of the entire system, $vhich position he occupied until April 30, 1900.7 On the evening of April 21 the officials of the paseenger, freight and .operating departments entertained Mr.Reeve at a dinner in the Windsor Hotel, at whick Mr.Hays presided.A massive cabinet of silver was presented to the retiring traffic manager, and when he left Montreal the Grand Trunk placed a special car at his disposal.AT THE \u2018POINT.; The appointment of Mr.George B.Reeve as general manager of the Grand Trunk Railway, as announced in the \u2018Witness\u2019 on Saturday, was received with popular favor among the employees of the company at the \u2018Point\u2019 \u2018No better man could have been selected,\u2019 was the general opinion among them.Coupled with his name, there is naturally an impression that it means a good many changes in the official staff, the opinion being that Mr.Reeve will want to have men surrounding him who understand his methods, and, naturally enough, some pames of former Grand Trunk officials who were identified with\u2019 him for many years, and resigned \u2018pon the change of management in 1806, will again be engaged by the company.STOLE FIFTY DOLLARS.Henri Ceastonguay this morning pleaded guilty before Mr.Lafontaine to stealing the sum of $50 from the boarding house of Mr; Cousineau on Craig

and sceptics to bring out their charges against scripture truths, so that their weakness might be made manifest.After considerable per: suasion a number of texts were presented for explanation, which the boy preacher undertook to do with all the self-confidence of a veteran principal of a theological coi- exe.Where the texts were very plain, the explanations were mostly satisfactory, but where the texts were obscure, the explanations given were not always relevant to the subject under consideration.The audience was next requested to furnish a text for the germon to be preached in their héañîng, and after some time spent in as- cortaining the wishes of the peaple, the preacher praceeded to preach from the text Acts 1 and 8th verse: \u2018Ye shall recelve pow- after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you, and ye shall be witnesses,\u2019 etc.This addres: was on the whole more along the theme of the text than was the one in the forenoon, but the preacher dwelt almost entirely on the defects and shortcomings of most Christians, who evidently were lacking in this promised gift from the Father.The services will be continued throughout the present and next week at 7.30 p.m., each evening.QUEEN'S BENCH.APPLICATION FOR COMMISSION REFUSED.Upon the opening of the Court of Queen\u2019s Bench this morning His Honor Judge Hall rendered his decision in respect to the application of Mr.M.J.F.Quinn, Q.C., mado on Saturday to have the trial of McGillis & McCullough, of the \u2018cold storage\u2019 case postponed to the March term and a commission appointed to go to England to take

below.He recognized the difference between the positions of McGillis and McCullough in the \u2018case, ; McCullough had maintained that he had handled the warehouse receipts in the or- nary course of buginess.McGillis\u2019s name, however, was attached to the documents \u2018and his authority in the transaction was more\u2019 apparént.His Honor did not see what evidence Mr.Gunn or Messrs.Shearer

giving some attention 11 the last few days to Australia\u2019s request for cuna-, dian participation in the cer2mony m augurating the Australas: common wealth and an announcement may \"®@ expected within a day or two of the ministerial plans.It wii be impossite to concur in the wish of Austraila for the despatch of a contingent of Canadian | troops which would involve a very large outlay, and for which, moreover, no ap propriation has been taken from parlia- ; ment.But the occasion is one which, seems to call for the presence of a rep-) resentative from the Canadian Govern-| ment and though no decision is yet.taken the name mentioned in this connection is that of the Hon.William Mu- lock, the founder of the Imperial penny postage.The name of Lord Strathcona had been put forward, but it will be impossible for His Lordship to undertake the mission.The Prime Minister, Sir Wilfrid Laurier, might have himselt gone but this would mean a probable postponement of the session of parliament, which should open at the latest the first week in February.Most of the other older members of the cabinet have engagements which render it impossible for them to make the trip.Whoever goes will have to leave within a week and sail by way of the Suez Canal ns it would be impossible to reach Sydney by New Year\u2019s by the Canadian line.Moreover, a visit to New South Wales will mean that the Canadian delegate must necessarily see the other units of the confederation,®which could not be done much within two months.There is in Australasia, if the senti-| ment there be favorable, a magnificent field at this time for the negotiation of À reciprocal trade arrangement.Canada has given without return to\u2019 the sister colonies a substantial advantage in her markets which has already proven of money value to Australians.New South Wales is already free trade, and Queensland has of late been a large exporter to the Dominion of raw sugar, a trade which will net her good profit.It remains to be seen how the feeling elsewhere would be towards such a proposal.The visit of the Canadian delegate will probably show.Our sales in Australasia are growing; they are already worth to go millions and Canadian wares are growing in favor, including manufactures of lumber and flour.Within the last two or three years there has been, in course of development a larger ret¥rn trade than formerly from the Antipodes in wool and sugar, and it is not imperialists alone to whom a scheme for closer reciprocal trade relations would commend itself.ADVANCE OF ALLIES \u2014 STRONG FORCE OPPOSING THEIR PROGRESS WESTWARD, Shanghai, Nov.17.\u2014It is reported that Gener: Ma, with 10,000 men; General Fang, with 8,000; and General Yu, with 5,000, are marching towards the borders of the province of Chihli, to check the advance of ine allies westward.Li Hung Chang and the Yagntse viceroys, it is said, have guaranteed the Empress Dowager\u2019s personal safety if the will return to Pekin, but she believes that they are in league with the allies to capture her.The French force which went tc the ! relief of the Catholic priests besieged at Chenting, in Chihli province, succeeded in rescumg them.A PEKIN RUMOR.London, Nov.19.\u2014\u2018It is rumored,\u2019 says the Pekin correspondent of the \u2018Morning Post,\u201d wiring on Saturday, \u2018that a spring vind Dal expedition to Sianfu is already being discussed, as the outcome of the pro uble failure of the peace negotiations.Even if Prince Tuan and Prince Chwang are absent from the present seat of the Chinese court, the Emperor Kwang Su is still helpless, as he lacks the aid of of a strong and progressive adviser, ull such officials having been beheaded.General Fuh Hang, master of the military forces, is dreaded even by the Empress Dowager.The new cabinet minster, Lu Chuan Lin, is reputed to be another Kang Yi.There is danger, therefore, that terms accepted by the Chinese commissioners in Pekin will be rejected at Sian Fu.\u2018Should the court prepare for further resistance, it would be necessary for the allies to declare war, but to discriminate hetween the court and China.The United States and Russia will probably refuse to take part in any such mieas- ures.\u2018Since the occupation of Pekin tte German commander has shot more than a hundred guilty Boxers.General Chaf- fee\u2019s orders do not provide for dealing with cases of crimes committed before the relief of the legations.The American plan is to leave such matters to the Chinese, which means nothing.\u201d ALLEGED FRENCH DESIGNS.Hongkong, Nov.19.-\u2014Chinese officials aver that a certain power has demanded leave to place troops upon a hill overlooking Canton.No foreign authority confirms the assertion, but the Cantonese continue to fear French designs upon the city.MARINE UNDERWRITERS _\u2014 MONTREAL ASSOCIATION REPLIES TO RECENT CRITICISM.The * Witness\u2019 has received a most important communication from the secretary of the Montreal Marine Underwrit- \u2018ers\u2019 Association, replying to the criticism that has been given so freely lately to the high marine insurance rates by the St.Lawrence route, in contradistinotion to the moderate rates obtaining from New York and other Atlantic ports.This communication, which, the insurance companies claim, anticipates the work of the Royal Commission, so far as their business

between the islands of St.Helena and Tristan de Cunha, in July -It is often the case, under such circum-! stances, that nothing is done to repaif.the damage.Instead of that the- cap- [tain whistles for a tow, and lands the veesel\u2019s owner in\u2018large salvage expenses.neers and a plucky crew.\u2018Syren\u2019 publishes a long letter describing how the shaft was put right on the open\u2018 sea.The ship was bound for Bahia Blanca.At Bahia, San Salvador, she was brought up, and Captain W.Jones wrote to the owners commenting on the fouling of the ship.Soon after leaving port there was undeniable evidence of this.The vacuum repeatedly fell low, but, thinking that tain kept the vessel on her way.On setting in.The crew knew they were in a tight corner, and waited until daybreak, Though stored for five months, over three had been spent, so all the crew went on one-third rations, while the engineers endeavored to put matters right.For thirty-six days not a sail hove in sight.Had the repair failed, it is painful to contemplate what might have been the lot of the crew.It was found that the stern tube was broken, exposing a fractured shaft in the last frame of the peak, and the task of mending it seemed hopeless.: Owing to the contracted space only one man could work at a time, while a don- key-engine had to be kent going to pump the water coming through the stern bush.SMART WORK.nl Stanchions were taken out nf the holds, and suitable forgings made to form the keys and\u2019 bands ; bolts were taken out here and there for the feet of the engine columns ; and a sleeve of quarter-steel plate made to fit closely to the shaft.Every part of the work was thoroughly done.\u2018Take no risks\u2019 was the motto.When all the keys were fitted, the open fracture was wedged wrth one-half inch and five-eighth inch iron and made solid, and over all and through was run magnolia metal.The shaft was then cheathed with the sleeve and bound firm.After weeks of anxiety and aimless drifting\u2014thirty-five miles aft daily\u2014the work was tested.The machinery at once revolved ; the vessel forged slowly ahead.At rather more than half-speed 900 miles were covered and port reached.Not a penny went in salvage, not even for a tug for shifting berths in harbor.The crew, are now waiting to see how the underwriters and owners will appreciate this smart piece of work.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 A BEAVER AT WORK.(\u2018Canadian Gazette,\u2019 London.)

dedication of the Church of St.John the Evangelist was celebrated yesterday at both morning and evening services.At the choral celebration, at eleven o\u2019clock, the Rev.Edmund Wood was the celebrant, assisted by the Rev.T.A.Teitelbaum, while the Rev.G.H.Dumbell, D.D., rector of Sherbrooke, preached both morning and evening.The services were fully choral, the organ being strengthened by a strong quartette and piano.The communion office was sung to Agutter\u2019s setting in G, and the graduale \u2018How dreadful is this place,\u201d to Gregorian tunes, while the evening's service was Roberts in F.Dr.Dumbell spoke on \u2018Systematic giving\u2019 in the morning, and on \u2018Worship\u2019 in the evening.The rector of Sherbrooke, who comes from Douglas, Isle of Man, is a fine physical specimen of his race.His presence and delivery are very striking, and there is a virility about his pulpit manner whigh will commend him to ail.He appears to have strong and decisive views on moet things.\u2018Almagiving,\u2019 he said in the morning, \u2018was money lent to the Lord, but the cost of publie worship was a binding debt to God, and if men did not pay it they robbed him.From the earliest ages a tithe had been thus claimed by him from his people, and this sacred obligation still lay upon all men.Only when this was satisfied to the last farthing could free-will offerings be made.Through the neglect of the clergy these had almost disappeared from our modern worship, vet the prayer-book calls them the \u201cdevotions of the people,\u201d and they are enjoined as a necessary part of the preparation for the Holy Commus nion.\u2019 His remarks on \u2018Worship\u2019 in the evening were even more startling.Assistance at the Holy Eucharist was, he said, the highest form of worship, indeed the only form of worship.Other devotional exercises might be of assistance in living a godly life, but prayer, the singing of hymns, the hearing of sermons, were not worship, For worship was essentially sacrifice, and it was only in the sacrifice of the Eucharist that we truly worship God.INQUEST ADJOURNED.An inquest was opened at the General Hospital by Deputy Coroner Biron on Saturday morning on Gilbert Cardinal.Cardinal was one of those injured in the street car accident on Cote des Neiges hill, on Sunday, Nov.4.He died on Friday.at the hospital, from complications brought on by his injuries.The Street Railway Company, the relatives of the deceased, and the accident insurance company, in which Cardinal had a policy, were all represented by counæel.Dr.Wyatt Johnston stated the cause of death, substantially as above, after which Mesars.Leduc, Chabot and Binet, who were passengers on the cars at the time of the accident, gave their accounts of the affair, which were much the same as that published in the \u2018Witness\u2019 on Nov.5.Joseph Michaud, a street railway inspector, testified when the car began to run back he was standing at the corner of Pine avenue and Cote des Neiges road, managing the Y.He immediately ran to the car, and helped the conductor eet the brakes.He did not believe that the first car had struck the one behind it at all.The inquest was then adjourned till to-morrow morning, to obtain the evidence of the motormen and conductors of the cars.NEW M\u2018GILL SOCIETY.The Delta Kappa Upsilon

Obtainabie.Eczema very frequently appears on the head and face of children during the teething period, and should have immediate attention, mot only because of the intense suffering it causes and the evil effect on the general health, but also because,if neglected, it becomes chronic :nd sometimes covers almost the entire body.Another form of baby eczema is caus ed by chafing, and is found between folds of skin or where two surfaces of skin come together under the napkin.In either case there is quick relief and thorough cure to be obtained through tke use of Dr.Chase\u2019s Ointment.Dr.Chase\u2019s Ointment does not clog up the pores of the skin as do powders, and so give rise to bodily derangements, It acts as a food for the skin, is readily absorbed.ad {8 #o

here, the principls, in that of Lady vers Twiss, \u2018vhere a good woman\u2019s reputation was blasced as a result of questions asked in a court cf iaw.bas \u2018arisen in cwnncction with a suit for libel brought by Mayor Macdonald against \u2018Saturday Night,\" the society per of this city.\u2018Saturday Nighc, uring last year\u2019s mayo-a'ly campaign, charged Mr.Macdonald \u2018vith conduct sn gross that the only sufficient answer was a suit for libel.The preliminary stages of the case have been in prouress all year, amd the mayor, 11 an examination for discovery, refused t> answer certain questions, on the ground that to do =o would involve the good name of a woman.\u2018Saturday Night\u2019 got an order to comn- pel him to answer.The mayor apreal- ed, and the Divisional Court has just rendered a judgment, which was evidently given with reluctance.The judges were Messrs.Falconbridge and Street, and they say: \u2018The fact that a woman with.whom the plaintiff admitted that he cohabited with eighteen years ago, has long since become a respecable married woman, and would be socially ostracized by the disclosure of her name, is on the authorities, though it is to be regretted, no ground for the plaintiff's refusal in this actiôn to refuse to make such disclosure;.moreover, his objection to do so is entirely \u2018inconsistent with bis objection that he intends to call her as a witness.\u201d It is expected that the mayor will drop the libel suit rather than go on under the conditions set.A PARIS MURDER THE COUNT DE CORNULIER SHOOTS HIS WIFE.Paris, Nov.17.\u2014Count de Cornulier this afternoon surprised his wife, the Countess De Cornulier, visiting the apartments of a gentleman, a former admirer of hers, in the rue Du Province.The count met the countess on the stairway and fired three shots at her.She died on her way to a hospital.Tha count was arrested.The family is a prominent one.The count\u2019s brother is an army colonel! and the count is well known in the highest Parisian society.He is 43 years old.His wife was 31 years old.She was formerly Mlle.Genevieve Bineau de Viennay.A suit for separation was pending between the count and countess.She was a woman of unusual beauty, and was often seen at the theatres, race courses, and other resorts {requented by the élite of Paris.She was a daughter of Count De Vien- nay, whose family is highly respected.She was married to Count Charles De Cornulier fourteen years ago, and three children are the result of the union, the eldest of whom is thirteen years old.Acting upon the advice of her father the countess separated from her husband four years ago.Recently a decree was rendered, giving her possession of the children.The count then began his -espionage and discovered that the count- \u2018ess frequently visited M.Leroux.one of her former admirers.Count De Cornulier claimed that a liaison was maintained by the couple, but the best information is that Leroux acted as the legal adviser of the countess.It is stated that her father chose him to manage her affairs.: Yesterday the count watched M.Le- roux\u2019s home, but the countess did not vigit her adviser.To-day, finding her landau before M.Leroux\u2019s door, the count secreted himself on the stairway, and when the countess descended, il out a word, fired three times, each shot taking effect.His wife never regai consciousness after the shooting, dyin in the ambulance, which was summone to take her to the hosiptal.The count was exceedingly calm upon surrendering himself, saying: \u2018TI did it.I am her husband.\u2019 He was the first to wife after she fell, and asked that a riest be sent for.He asserted that Le id not intend to kill his wife, hut wanted to create a scandal.\u2014_\u2014\u2014

would remain closed pending an examination.Examiner Tucker also announced, unofficially, that Frank M.Brown, the individual book-keeper, and assistant cashier, was missing, and that a partial investigation showed that Brown was short about $201,000.Brown had been witn the bank eighteen years, was one of \u2018he most tru men ever connected with \u2018his old bank, and it is stated by the experts that his Jeculations extended back as ar as én years.The capital stock of the bank is only $100,000.B:ywn\u2019s alleged ive aid to his ah in double that amount.and: more than the reserve and

Power Company to lay water mains in the same cuttings as the drains now under construction, the corporation paying the interest annually on the cost ($4,100) until the revenue from water Tates amounts to ten percent of the expenditure.Acting upon a recommendation made in the report of Dr.Shaw, health officer, the council will call upon parents to have their children vaccinated before Dec.1, 1900.Numerous complaints having been brought to the notice of Mayor Dudlop against the inefficiency of the street car service, the council has decided to make an effort to Induce the Montreal Street

WHO WAS CURED BY DOAN\u2019S KIDNEY PILLS.Stone in the bladder is one of the most excruciating and agonizing of kidney diseases.ome LÉ its symptoms are sudden stoppage of the flow of urine, straining,

INVENTION.(Associated Press Cable letter.) London, Nov, 17.\u2014Minimum news and maximum ram were the distinguishing features of the week.Such gloomy, wet days as experienced here recently are unusual even for London.Mr.Joseph Chamberlain, that central figure in British politics, can congratulate himself for more reasons than one upon his absence from murky London, He is sojourning on the suuny Mediterranean, and is temporarily safe from the Vigorous personal attacks which continue to be made upon him by the Liberals, from Sir \u2018Henry -Bænnérman down.The latest and moet important of these is a statement made by the \u2018Morning Leader\u2019 showing Mr.Chamberlain holds £7,000 (shares) in the Colombo Commercial Company, which is receiving large contracts for housing Boer prisoners in Ceylon.What makes the case still more damaging is the fagt that Mr.Chamberlain sanctioned, as Colonial Secretary, a regulation laid down by the governor of Ceylon, strictly prohibiting any officer of the local government from interesting himself or his family in private business.In other words, Mr.Æhamberlain forbids his subordinates, under pain of ge- vere penalties, to do what he himself is doing on a large scale.It now seems impossible for Mr.Chamberlain to avoid legislation, for which he will undoubtedly be asked when parliament reassembles.Another feature in the same connection.of which the Liberals are making no little capital, is the extraordinary number of directorships in private companies held by government officers.Of the twenty cabinet ministers thirteen are directors, while between all the thirty-six ministers, twenty-seven directorships nre held.The list commences with Lord Salisbury, who assisted in the management of an insurance company, and includes Lord Selborre, who is both First Lord of the Admiralty and a director of the Peninsular and Oriental Steamship Company ; Mr.Gerald Balfour, who unites a directorship in an aluminum company with the presidency of the Board of Trade, and many other incongruous associations, several of the companies being financially discredited.With such flagrantly weak apots in the armor of the new cabinet, it ia now the Liberals are imploring Lord Rosebery to lead \u2018he party.Bir Henry Campbell Banner- man\u2019s appeal to the ex-premier only voices the feeling of the majority of the party, but it was accompanied by such bitter denunciations of the so-called Imperialists that it can scarcely be expected to produce such results.DESERTED FROM HIS REGIMENT.London, Nov.19.\u2014James Farlinger Thomson, of Ontario, was arrested cn board the Cunard liner \u2018Campania\u2019 at Queenstown yesterday morning, mst he- fore she started on her westward voyage.He came to London last Apnl on an extensive tour of England, Scotland and France, patronizing th: best hotels.While in Glasgow he enlisted in the Royal Irish Regiment, and he hal been stationed at Clonmel, but deserted and took passage for the Un ted States.Thomson, who is aid to be var, wealthy, is the son of a Canadian merchant.The police handed him over to the military authorities.\u2014_\u2014\u2014 THE DUKE OF YOLK.London, Nov.19.\u2014The Duke and lruchess of York\u2019s forthcoming visit to wstralia is quite likely to be fisted I with a trip through Canada, with additional excursions, were Droper repre- SPORTS AND PASTIMES.FOOTBALT.MeGILL AT TORONTO.! ! | | Toronto, Nov.17.\u2014The Inter-Collegiate | Rugby Unton\u2019's season was finished up this | eiteruoon, when the final game between \u2018varsity and McGill was played and won by | the loral students by 7 to 4,although McGill | was ahead at Lnli-time by 4 to 2.The day ! by no means favored the Rugby men, but i the attendance was surprisingly large, num- | bering about one thousand, and included a | number of ladies.These who braved the | elements were fully repaid by the excitement and the quality of Rugby they were | treated to.The matek was played on a field ; that was covered vith snow, and, owing to i the drizzling rain that fell, it soon became | packed and hard, making it dangerous for { the players.There was very little fumbling | ena the kicking was remarkably goed for | the day.Of the two teams, 'Varaity was the Letter, especially on the back division, | fer their kicking was most effective.While the wings were bout even up, \"Varsity hal i the best of the scrimmage.The result of | this match is to give Queen's the championship, as they have beaten McGill twice, \u2018Varsity once, and made a draw.The teams were: \u2014 'Varsity\u2014Pack, Beale : haives, Brown (capt.).Baldwin, Aylesworth; quarter, Biggs; scrimmage, Rutter, Douglas, Burham : wings, Armgrong, Meredith, McLennan, | Gibson.Hunt, Harrison, McCallum.McGill\u2014-Back, McN se: halves, Caldwell, Johnson, Morse: quarter, Keuny (capt.); | scrimmage, Curran, O'Briea, Hampson : wings, Savage, Cowen, Graham, Shilling- ton, Boulter, Nagle, Seifert.Referee\u2014Ridley Wylie, Argonauts.Umplre\u2014E.Dumulin, Argonauts.Touch-line judges\u2014A.McLaren and E.Lindsay.Goal judges\u2014H.D.P.Hardisty, and E.Armstrong.Timer\u2014Curley McKay.After the game the Intercolleglate seasnn was brought to a most pleacant close by the annual dinner at the Temple Cafe.The menu was the best, and after it was partaken of a pleasant social evening was spent.The usual toasts were proposed and responded to, the particular ome being to Queen's, this season's champions.Then came the toast to the intermediate champions, Queen's second team.TIGERS BADLY BEATEN.Princeton, N.J,, Nov.17.\u2014Princeton wound up the most disastrous football season in the history of the university this evening, losing her annual game to Yale by the score of 29 to 5.Yale has rolled up larger scores, but never has she shown her superior strength in such a marked degrce as she did this afternoon.To show Princeton's utter weakness, it is but necessary to say that during the seventy minutes of play the orange and black made only two touch downs, and those were within ten minutes of the close of the game when Princeton took a temporary brace.There were not more than 13,00¢ persons \u2014\u2014-\u2014-_ es again guard the posts : Curtis will play point, and McDowall cover point; Merrill, Harty and Dalton will again be the centres.while Walkem and Weatherhead will be the wings.Clarke of last year's R.M.C.team will also be an addition to Queen's.YACHTING.THE NEW DEFENDER.New York, Nov.17.\u2014The order for the new yacht to defend the \u2018America\u2019s\u2019 cup in tbe match of August next against the Shamrock II.\u2019 vag placed with the Herres- hoffs on Wednesday, Nov.14, the contract required in the case being signed in this city on that day.Now the work of building will be carried on as fast as it is Practicable.It is possible that the new craft may be afloat the latter part of April or the first of Mey.Regarding the selection of a course, Sir Themas Lipton is reported to have said: I prefer Sandy Hook.I do not think there is = better course in the world.I have never made any objections to it.In fact, I Fave always spoken of it in the highest terms.No doubt the races last year were prolonged owing to not suificient vind to finish within the time limit.But it is my opinion that with sufficient wind there could rot be a better or a fairer cours: and, personally, I feel thy e would be more glory i.fighting the battles over the old historical course, where we have sc often been defeated.Anyhow, there has slways been sufficient breeze for the American boat to win at Sandy Hook, and had the \u2018Shamrock\u2019 been a speedier boat the same wind would have brought her in first.Were I to go cver a new course I could not hava worse luck, so far as re- | Fults #o, than I had at Sandy Hook, and: the Americans could not have better luck than they Bot.These are my personal views.The Members of the New York Yacht Club are certainly the beat judges.ard I am quite willing to abide by their dcelsion.\u2019 | \"UP BOAT AND ITS MANAGER i New York, Nov.16.\u2014Three weeks have elapsed since the announcement was made | At a regular meeting of the New Yorr ; Yacht Club, by Commodore Ledyard, tha | a boat would be built to defend the \u2018Am erica\u2019s\u2019 cup against the \u2018Shamrock IL.° hi the club officials have not yet made publir the syndicate that will own the yacht.There are five persons in the syndicate and its leader is Vire-Commodore Augus! Belmont.Various other names have been used as his associates but there can be nothing ceriain in the case until the official list is announced.The silence of the club officials on this point has led to the belief that the syndicate is still incomplete, al- thouæh it has been admitted that the Herre- shoffs are working upon the plans, and that the new boat will soon be started.ATHLETICS.A CROSS-COUNTRY RACE.Toronto, Ont., Nov.17.\u2014E.C.Hallman, of the Cntario Agricultural College Athletic Association of Guelph, won the five mile cross-country race held this after- at the game.A LEAGUE.An Indoor Baseball League, consisting of tha Masentte, Montreal.Nationa! and La- chine clubs was formed on Friday.The season will open on Saturday, Nov.24, with a game between the Mascotte and Montreal teams, at Sohmer Park.Al.Johnson.the second baseman of the Montreal team, of the Eastern League, has the Montreal team in hand, and says that the game is sure to be a success in this city.THE JUNIOR CHAMPIONSHIP.Toronto, Ont., Nov.16.\u2014MeGill III.,champions of the junior division of the Quebec Rugby Union, has challenged Toronto II., Junior champions of the Ontario Union, to- play oft-feg.nationa! - bencrs.\u2014 \u201che docak youngsters have accepted and tHe match will be played here on the same day that the senior championship is played, namely, Nov.24.This will be the first time that the junior championship has been contested for.NEW FOOTBALL RULES.Toronto, Ont., Nov.16.\u2014The annual meeting of the inter-collegiate union was held to-night at the Rossin House.A great amount of business was disposed of.It was decided to change the rule regarding the points allowed for a touchdown, making a try count five, and goa! one point, instead of four and two.respectively.| The incoming executive was {instructed to purchase football watches for the use cl referees next season, and clause 7 of the regulations was eliminated, as it conflicted with another rule in the book.Umpires will be chosen from the board of referees.The advisability of forming a junior series in connection with the union was deliberated upon at length.The Incoming executive wer: empowered with suthority to deal with the matter.The following officers were elected: \u2014Hon.president, Dr Clarke, Kingston; president, w .F.Douglas, 'Vaisity; vice-president.E.G.Mason, McGill; secretary treasvrer, M.Fergugon, Queen's; executive committee, W.J.Loudon, R.M.C., and M.J.Sawyers, Trinity.ROUGH RIDERS READY.Ottawa, Ont., Nov.16.\u2014Most of the Rough Riders\u2019 players were out in the snow in Cartier square this afternoon for a run, and considerable exercise was taken.The men are in fine shape for the big contest in Toronto, on Nov.24.HOCKEY.MONTAGNARD SECOND.The fifth annual meeting of the Second Montagnard Hockey Club was held on Tuesday night, when the following were elected officers for the comiug season :\u2014Hon.president, Mr.Joseph Marier ; president, Mr.J.T.Derome; vice-president, Mr.A!

at least father and mother did not live together and from early childhood she had known nothing but the coarser and harder side of life.She was not baptized nor had she any distinct recollection of experiencing the shepherding of the Church.In fact the Church was to her an exceedingly indefinite existence.\u2018 A meeting or {wo in the school-house was the most concrete concept of that body which she could ferm.It was no wonder then that there was more of pity than of severity in the judge\u2019s tones when he sent this waif to the solitude of the penitentiary for two years.She turned Queen's evidence in the case of the gang of;burglars and through her testimony sefergl of them were convicted and sen- tedeed: Shortly .after the above episode she | stole a horse and carriage at Richmond and drove over into the State of Vermont and left it in a blacksmith\u2019s shop, where it was recovered by its owner.In due time she returned to Canada, but the representatives of justice did not think it worth while to make an arrest and so she lived unnoticed by the public until a week or two ago, when in company with her cousin, Lizzie Placey, she, stole a horse and carriage at Dalling, North Ely.In accomplishing this theft she went to the stable by night, but! found that the carriage harness was | locked up in a harness room.Not to be! disappointed in her purpose, she found an old set of cart harness, which she pressed into service and by sundry improvised attachments was enabled to drive to Waterloo.Her poasible arrival had, however, been telephoned ahead of her and officers were ready to receive the pair.They were brought to Sweets- burg and have been sentenced as above, both pleading guilty.The younger gir} is only fifteen years of age and difficulty was experienced by the presiding judge a8 to how to dispose of her.His desire was to send her to a reformatory where there might be some hope of rescuing her from a life of crime.But there is no reformatory for Protestant girls in the province.She will probably remain in Sweetsburg jail, where few female priseners are to be found.ee THE LAND OF LUTHER.The \"Rev.J.\" Bdga: Hill, D.D., gave an illustrated lecture in Stanley.Street Pres- Dysart ) Guach on Friday.dn I ;

Energy.LORD KITCHENER\u2019S PLAN OF CAMPAIGN.London, Nov.18»-The guerilla warfare in South Africa has become less formidable.The centres of hostile operations in Dutch territory may have multiplied, but the Boer commandos are thinning out from death, illness and desertions.The skirmishes recorded daily by Lord Roberts are petty affairs, in which scores of Boer combatants are engaged where formerly there were hundreds, and sometimes thousands.Comsequently casualties are light and few prisoners are taken.2 The British army is adapting itself to the altered conditions, and is gradually wearing out.the energies of its persistent and.obstinate foe.Where once there were divisions, with a complete staff organization there are now brigadee and lightly equipped mobile columns sent in pursuit of small bands of guerillas.Generals and staff officers are returning by every steamer from the Cape, and the entire British army is in process of reorganization for the special service which is now required.General Kelly-Kenny, who commanded the Sixth Division in the terrible march across the veldt, has been relieved from command at Bloemfontein and General Hunter has taken his place.Either Lord Roberts or Lord Kitchener is picking out men who have special capacity for fighting the Boers.The new tactics seem effective.The scattered bands of Boers are constantly harried, and allowed no rest.Lines of communication are strongly guarded, and are not seriously menaced.The Boers are alert, but only able to operate on a small stale against outposts, and their cattle and horses are constantly teken from them, and here and there small squads are killed, wounded or taken prisoners.They have not had a single success in the last six weeks, and the sum of their losses is considerable.It is not strange that optimists are predicting the close of hostilities by the end of the year.Bloemfontein, Nov.18.\u2014The Boers heavily attacked the railway at Eden- burg on Nov.15 (Thursday).It is reported that thes Boers were completely cut up.One report has it that 75 of the party were killed or wounded.Durban, Now.18.\u2014The Natal Mercury\u2018 reports that among the measures to be adopted in order to pacify the Boers is the reconcentrado plan of Lord Roberts, Lord Kitchener has decided to take this step, owing to the difficulty of dealing with the armed Boers while hampered with the civilian population in the outlying small towns.BOER ACTIVITY.Pretoria, Nov.18.\u2014It 1s alleged that Commandant Louis Botha has established a government at Roesendal, north of Middelburg, and that, with the £150, 000 which he has available, he is paying the fighting burghers a crown per day.Commandant Abel Erasmus is said te be at Olifant\u2019s River with 2,000 men, 1,000 waggons, and 12,000 cattle, From Heidelburg it is reported that the Boers are compelling the burghers who had surrendered to take up arms again under pain of death.\u2014 KITCHENER'S IRON GLOVE.PLAN OF CAMPAIGN WILL DIFFER WIDELY FROM THAT OF LORD ROBERTS.London, Noy.19.\u2014Lord Kitchener is now for the first time unhampered in carrying on the South African war, and it promises _to be widely different from that under Lord Roberts.The latter will continue to sign the official despatches until bis departure, but the campaign will be deyised and directed b ord Kitchener alone.He has faced the grim fact -thai the ememy means the entire population, - has greatly tightened the \u201ccensordiip, \u2018while: he finds it necessary.to-carry out certain military police more Tigorously than under Lord Roberts's regime._ The Transvaal and the Orange River Colony are now opening the second season since a crop was sown, and it 1s fourteen months since normal imports of foodstuffs ceased.The railways are still broken for several days weekly.These things combined make the feeding of \u2018the occupants of the two republics a work of great difficulty, which is increased by the filling of the towns with stores for the garrison.These garrisons the inhabitants betray to the commandos, who thereby easily replenish their stores, thus making the starving out of the fighting burghers impossible.Lord Kitchener\u2019s alternative is the depopulation of the towns, movi every non-mili- tary inhabitant toward the coast, where .they will be more easily fed, while freeing the army\u2019s hands.This movement wii involve great time, and it is doubtful if it is feasible.Lord Kitchener's movements show the fearful desolation to which the war has reduced the country.The only hopeful sign is the coming of the Transvaal summer, when the heat will make the tropical veldt unbearable.The northernmost commandos will have to trek toward the south where they will meet the British.This will bring General Delarey shortly into range of severe fighting.General De Wett has not been heard of, and it is believed that he is advancing toward Ficksburg, which the Boers hold.The systematic breaking of the Kimberley and Bloemfontein railways has for its aim the tying up of the troops in the up-country.through the resulting shortage of supplies.The people will forgive anything that will bring the fighting to an end, and release the greater part of the troops.Instead of that, however, the Innis- killing Fusiliers, who returned to Eng- Jand from Natal a few months ago, have been ordered to re-embark for the Cape.RIFLE PRACTICE.Pretoria, Nov.16\u2014Lord Roberts has issued an order cempelling the men to take regular musketry practice.Mach man will have to fire twenty-five rounds at a target, and if his showing is poor a penalty of twenty-five additional rounds will be imposed.The commander-in-chief is very anxious that the commanding officers shall make the training of the men effective by enforcing these regulations.A brigade of mounted infantry.that will be commanded by Col.Anderson, is being formed here, and excellent progress has already been made.One com- ny is taken from each regiment of infantry, and some of the men svho were never on horseback before this scheme was started are already serviceable cavalrymen.SCARCITY OF BOER SUPPLIES.Malcolm Clark, a well-known resident of Zoutspanberg, has arrived here.He left Pietermaritzburg on Nov.3, and walked to Pinaars river.The Kaflirs assisted him in hiding from the Boers in the daytime.He states that there are no supplies at Pietersburg except meat and mealies.The Boers have aminuni- tion.In August they expected that the town would be occupied by the British, so they destroyed their guns and prepared to surrender.Later Barend Vorster assumed control.He seized the government stores and looted private stores, sending the seized goods to his farm.General Viljoen arrived at the town and deposed orster.The \u2018Wachter,\u2019 a newspaper, is § reading lies concerning the situation.It says that a commando of 9,000 has occupied Colesberg, that the Orange river bridge has been destroyed by the Boers, no trains having passed over it since the first of September, and that the British army is starving.Col.Mahon has left for Egypt.Major Chauncey accompanies Col.Lumsden\u2019s reéurning men to Capetown.and he will pay their passages home from Col.umsden\u2019s fund.MUST ATTEND TO BUSINESS.Capetown, Nov.19.\u2014On account of the disturbed condition of affairs in the Grange River Colony and the Transvaal.Sir Gordon Sprigge, the Premier of Cape Colony, will e unable to attend the opening exercises at the inauguration of the commonwealth of Australia in January.As an indication of his opinion that the new departure will be of incalculable value to the empire, and in recognition of the services of the Australians during the war, he has deputized the Hon.J.Frost, member of the cabinet wilh- out portfolio, to represent the Cape Government.SINEWS OF WAR.\u2014_\u2014 AMERICAN BANKERS MAY BE ALLOWED TO SUPPLY A PORTION OF THE MONEY NEEDED.London, Nov.19.\u2014Financiers are less positive than they were a week ago that the American bankers will not be allowed to supply a portion of the money which the British treasury requires.They admit that the Chancellor of the Exchequer will probably look to the cheapest market, and as rates are higher in London than in New York and Chicago, he may find it convenient to obtain accommodation where the terms are more favorable.While national pride would be gratified by placing the new loan entirely in England, \u2018business is business.\u201d The financiers also admit that there is an advantage in allowing Americans to take a good portion of the new loan.These operations will depend upon the methods of borrowing and the extent to which the resources of the Dutch territories are mortgaged in payment of the debt.Some financiers calmly talk about pledging those resources to the full \u2018extent of the cost of the campaign, but experienced South African capitaliste, like Alfred Beit, do not believe that the Dutch colonies can safely be asked to pay more than one-third of the gross amount, and not even that until they have had a long interval for recuperation.All these caleu- lators leave out of the account the tremendous indemnities which must be paid to the loyalists in Cape Colony and Natal for their damages and louses.Mr.Ceeil Rhodes is reported as: favoring indirect taxation by tariff, but this would fall mainly upon Johannesburg, since \u2018he Boers can raise their own food, with tha exception of coffee.Another proposal is an income tax in the place of the land tax, and that the mines, as well as the farmers, be liable to their profits being taxed in place of royalties.But the burghers, without horses, cattle and sheep, and with their farm houses in ashee, will not contribute heavily to income tax.The mine owners will pay the piper to a great extent.SIR REDVERS BULLER \u2014 LONDON EXTENDS A CORDIAL GREETING TO THE RETURNED GENERAL.London, Now.17.\u2014The royal borough received Sir Redvers Buller this after noon with every mark of honor.The town fluttered with bunting, and the mayor formally welcomed him and Lady Audrey.The royal carriage awaited them, and

Rev.Mr.Almond, B.A.Anglican chaplain to the Royal Canadian Regiment, has decided to enter the Im- erial service, remurks that his career bas been marked by many sensational incidents.His steady adherence to duty, self-sacrificing performance of work of an nature, arduous and a constant and cheerful zeal which have marked bis connection with the regiment, have l'ft- ed it above the commonplace compliance with regulations, and entitle him to an honorable place in the annals of the first contingent.The \u2018Globe\u2019 goes on to describe Mr.Almond\u2019s work among the enteric fever patients at Bloemfontein, the executive ability which he showed when alleviating the condition of the soldiers along the lines of communication, and in all conditions of danger from the enemy, danger more imminent from disease and discomfort of infinite variety.\u2018A knack for executive work, zeal, practical piety, and unselfishness make an excellent equipment,\u201d says the \u2018Globe,\u2019 \u2018for labors such as those to which Mr.Almond has devoted himself, and he will be followed in his career by the good wishes of his fellow-country- men, to whom he has been of service.\u2019 R.M.C.VACANCY.Ottawa, Nov.16.\u2014The Militia Department awaits a recommendation from the War Office of an officer to succeed Col.Kitson as commandant of the Royal Military College,

missionaries, the Rev.Mr.Thompson and family, have been received at the mission headquarters: here.The tidings were sent.bÿ the Roman Catholic priest by messengers, who travelled on foot 175 miles, and were then transmitted by mail by the Rev.J.Stewart.The messengers did not give a very clear account of the atrocities as to the personality of some of the victims of the murderous uprising at Kucheo.It seems that certain robbers or pirates had been arrested and carried before the prefect, who had three of the robbers beheaded.The mob demanded that all the prisoners be put to death.The official, however, refused to order this until after an investigation as to their guilt.Becoming alarmed at the threats of the ringleaders of the mob, he fled to a temple.From this he was dragged and searched.Those who searched him claimed.to have found papers on him which showed that he belonged to some unpopular secret society.They then took him to a higher official called the Tai Toi, and demanded that the prefect be executed.This being refused, the mob attributed it to the official\u2019s friendship for the missionary, the Rev.Mr.Thompson.The mob, enraged at his refusal to behead his brother official, began murdering all the officials in the building, and killed them all, six in number.Then they rushed to the China Inland Mission building.They found the Rev.Mr.Thompson, Mrs.Thompson, and their baby in the house.One ruf- flan cut off Mrs.Thompson's head with a sword, and murdered the baby, while another killed Mr.Thompeon with a bayonet.Four lady missionaries in addition, whose names the messengers did not know, were also murdered.The Roman Catholic priest was away from the city at the time.On his return that night friends were on the watch for him on the city wall.As the city gates had been locked, he was drawn up into the city in a basket.He then learned of the frightful events of the day, also that the mob had wrecked his house and that of the China Inland missionaries.He, without delay, despatched messengers with the sad news.The China Inland Mission officials have now a list of forty-six of their devoted missionaries who have been murdered
