[" \"Ra qi | ! Caading Gleaner HUNTINGDON, Q., JUNE 25, 1903 NOTES OF THR WEEE \u2014 The consideration of the estimates is still the main business at Ottawa, and during the week good progress has been made with them.Supplemen- -tary estimates to theamountof over 8 millions have been brought down.The Grand Trunk charter to build a line to the Pacific is before the house and is likely to meet with determined opposition on two points, its excessive capital and its privileges.The government is still considering the demand for a subeidy.Mr Tarte, on Wednesday of last week, made a motion in favor of raising the tariff so as to render it \u201cadequately and firmly protective.\u201d The motion was lost by 102 to 50.The Conservatives backed Mr Tarte in a body, evoking from Mr Fielding the remark that he was now \u201cmaster \u2018of the opposition.\u201d The discovery that the extraordinary spreading of weeds is due Rat to aatural causes bat to the impurity of seed bought in the stores, has led to Mr Fisher introducing a bill to check the evil.The bill provides that any person who shall sell seed containing weeds designated she: be liable to fine or imprison- mint.The weeds named are all of a rature whose seeds can be removed by proper screening.Seeds are to be graded No 1, No 2, No 3, and screenings, the difference between the grades being the proportion in each of germinable seed and freedom from weeds.No seed is to be sold, even that graded screenings, which contains less than 70 per cent.of pure seed capable of growth, Packages are to be marked with name of wholesale merchant, or of the retailer if ft be seed he has bought from the grower.The bill is necessary but its value, like many other laws on the statute-book, will depend on its enforcement.If it be allowed to remain @ dead-letter it will be of no use.There is a stringent law against the adulteration of food, and there is a yearly report by official chemists showing cases of adulteration, yet we never hear of prosecutions.Ub- Jess provision is made that, when adulterated or impure seed is found the government will prosecute, we fear the act will be of little benefit.A farmer who sends a sample to the seed analyst and is notified it is not according to the act, would not be taelined to undergo the trouble or sun the risk of loss by prosecuting the offending seed-merchant.The addition of a clause, providing that when the seed analyst reports a case of infraction of the law, the government shall prosecute, is needed.Evidence taken at Ottawa last week by thecommittee on agriculture vovealed the unpleasant fact that slices of the public domain have been sold to companies at nominal prices, wbo then retail them to the actual wettier at extortionate rates.The proof was made clear in one instance, where a company bad got 260,000 acres in the Saskatchewan valley at « dollar an acre, and was now selling 18 to settlers at from $5 to 86 an acre.When the Liberals were in opposition the principle that public lands should be sold only to the avtual settler was accepted as a fixed axiom.: The Ontario legislature is wasting time over a resolution endorsing the report of the judges on the Gamey case.Were the report being considered on its merits no objection could be made, but when ite accept- anes J8 & mere matter of party feeling \u2014every Liberal in \u2018its favor, every Conservative against lt\u2014the die- cussion is isalvesre and vecless.It entmot be that tin report is so good that 20 Liberal can flan! fauit with it, or 50 bad that some Conservative @ight ses something to praise, Ot each party leader bas pessed his watchword and what is altogether white with the Liberal is altogether black with the Comservative.Surely à time will come when more indepen- tary debates.The néobt tétorceting spoooh delivered 00 far has been that \u201c Fat Gamey bimocif.: Ameb with \u20ac mg voluminous manuscript be made it the text 'of a\u2019 spessh * that flowed through two days.He reasserted his first charges in the niest positive form, denouncing the witnesses who contradicted him as liars, and stigmatising the two judges, especially Sir John Bayd, as being binased against him, uofair ip their rejection of ovi- dence he tendered, and of drawing wrong conclusions in their report.Outsiders: do not ses how.the judges can be blamed.One maa, with a dubious record, told a story which was flatly contradicted by every man whose name be mentioned., Were the judges to accept the charges of an accuser who bad no independent proof against the positive denials of a number of reputable witnesses ?Had the judges done so, they would have gone against all rules that govern evidence in a judicial proceeding.Where criticism of the judges fairly comes in, was their limiting the scope of theenquiry and not following up every possible lead as to who paid Gamey the money he unquestionably got and who supplied the money.Gamey\u2019s calling Stratton \u201ca drivelling lunatic,\u201d a hypocrite who knew he was \u201cguilty right down to the soles of his boots,\u201d describing premier Ross as a man whose word was not to be relied upon unless you bad his promise in writing, and denouncing Chancellor Boyd as a convicted liar, does not prepossess the public in his favor.A curious piece of alleged additional evidence was produced by the opposition.Frank Sullivan\u2019s father-in-law, Wilson, from near Toronto, was met by three residents of Buffalo and Rochester, who declared they bad heard \u2018him say Frank had told him the Hon Mr Stratton had given him $5,000 to bribe Gamey.Wilson farther declared that, on the enquiry being opened, he had been promised $500 to go to the States so that he could not be called as a witnees.These hearsay declarations are interesting but they are not evidence.At a dinner given by a U.8.s0- ciety in London, Chauncey Depew was a guest, and in the course of his speech, in referring to the relations existing between the republic and Britain, remarked\u2014 Nothing now separated the two countries except a spoiled child of the empire in the North.This child was a very good fellow in his way, but like all pampered children he was inclined to shake his fiat in the elder brother's face, knowing that his mother was behind him.But the disputed matter had been referred to arbitration, and the decision must be awaited.Meantime the child would grow up and the difficultics would disappear.Canada is used to being treated in contemptuous fashion by its neighbors to the south, Every effort she has made to protect her territorial rights has evoked a stream of expressions dyed with contumely and disdain.Yet, when her claims were submitted to impartial arbitrators she has always won, Witness the fisheries arbitration and the denial of the U, 8.claim to sovreignty of the Behring Sea.In the matter referred to by Senator Depew, the Alaskan frontier, the refasal by the Washington authorities to leave it to foreign arbitrators, is sufficient in itself to show they know they bave not a good case, further proved by their appointing, instead of jurists, 48 required by the treaty, three men who had prejudged the case.In one sense Canada has been a spoiled child \u2014she has been spoiled of the territory that was annexed to Maine, of the strip thrown into Minnesota and Dakota, and of her heritage in Oregon.She has been repeatedly spoiled by a covetous neighbor, and submitted for the sake of peace.On the 1st of April the cotton operatives at Lowell, to the number 01 17,000, struck for an advance of ten per cent.in their wages.The strike ended on Monday by the operatives seeking work at the old rates.The strike has cost the poor people $1,300,000in wages.Thecompanies: probably gained by the stoppage of theirmille, for there bad been an over-production and the ries ia price} ~ nl raw cotton had redacsd the profit in manuloturing it.Several other strikes, sion 88 that of the building trades and of tan iron construction workers in New York ha,Ye ded se unsuccesslally for the strike.EX-[ , _ ccouéirhttemenemansea \u2014 \u2014 their bande, bps dene much to discredit the walking dolagate and the opes-mouthed president, with the airs of a dictator.A correapondent of an Kaglish paper, sent to Ireland to report on the need of the land bill, in the course ofl his investigations struck an isolated place on the coast of Connemara where the people exist in a condition little removed above the barbarian.Education is unknown among them and their lives are one long struggle for existence.Cattle and other animals share the wretched shelter of thelr owners\u2019 families; the adults are not bal! clothed, the children are naked.The unvarying food of many familles from year\u2019s end to year's end is potatoes.Their ignorance was appalling.No land act could benefit them, for their lots are scraps of soil in the midst of granite hills.The only way to relieve them would be to remove them to where the surroundings are more favorable.At other points on the coast he found settlements poor enough, but none 80 hopelessly sunken, The price of a single man-ol-war would transplant these starving people to where they could live as humanity requires.To enroll regiments and build men-of- war is patriotic and a duty of par- lament: to hold out a helping hand to half-starved men, women, and children is not imperative.Such is the - moral code of nations as seen in the practice of the best of them.Germany's threat to punish Canada, on account of our preferential treatment of importa from Britain, has been again before the Imperial par- llament.Premier Ballour said the government would not regard with indifference any such attempt by Germany to penalise Canada.Replying to a taunt of the Liberal leader he said\u2014 Are we to understand that if other countries pedalise our colonies the Liberals would, if they came to power, sit silently by and watch the rocess of intimidation going on?ould they tell the colonies that they bad more to hope from us if they forgiving us preference Mr Chamberlain was more em- phatie.He pointed out that Germany\u2019s threatened punishment of Canada \u201cwas less to punish Canada than to read a lesson to any British colony daring to discriminate in favor of the Mother Country,\u201d and that was something no British statesman, of whatever party, would submit to.Unwarned by thesignsof the times, that the people are galled beyond longer endurance with the burden of carrying armies and navies, the Emperor of Germany goes on singling the praises of military life and boasting they are the instrument by which kings carry out what they will, \u201cMy army,\u201d he said the other day ln a public speech, \u201cwill ever remain the instrument that I need to support my party when necessary.Where the pen alone no longer suffices it must be supplemented by the keen- edged sword,\u201d The British government has taken the decisive course with regard to the Servian murders of recalling its representative at Belgrade and fn- timating that it will not recognise King Peter until the assassins are punished.Holland and the United States.are likely to take similar action.Both Russia and Austria have recognized King Peter, who is suspected of having had a hand in the foul deed which has opened a way for him to the throne.Latest despatches from esstern Africa are not satisfactory.The Mad Mullah is advancing and is now in British territory.Reinforcements are being hurried from Indiaand General Egerton has been seat to take command.There are most paloful rumore regarding the treatment ofthe wound- od who fll into the Mullah's hands on Gough'e defeat.A Boer is said to bave besn tortured to death and two wounded Englishmen had thelr heads et off which were carried in triumph on the point of poles.Lu posures in court of how union tried to blackmail mansiacturets war dor thovats of causing sivihes among | Bishop Emard presented Dr Hall with a gold-hsaded cane at the Catholle school on Monday.The sam of $295 was the total raised by three gentlemen, Pierre Reid, Jas.Smith, and Dr Hall.The latter raised the most and so got the cane.Mr James Cottingham of Riverside farm, so widely known as an enter- priaing farmer and stock-raiser, bas Iately sold seven of his pure-bred Ayrshires.To Mr A.E.Stewart, Malone, N.Y., and Wm.Gruer of Norton Creek, 1-year old bull each; 1-year old heifer to John W.Walsh, Burke, N.Y.; 1-year old heifer to Wm.Patenaude, Andersons\u2019s Corners; 1 spring bull to Mr Strong of Lachute; 1spring bull to Thos.Henderson, Huntingdon-co.,and 1 spring bull to Chas.Moe, Ormatown.The macadamizing ol the piece of roadon the upper concession is being actively pushed, fally 20 acres being completed.The work is being done in a thorough manner, a bed of 12 inches of cobble stone forming the foundation for 8 inches of macadam.The Rev Mr Warren left to-day for his new fleld at Lennoxville, The conference appointment of Rev G.H.Porter is not to be carried into effsct, and it isexpected the Rev Mr Adams, a retired minister, will serve the circuit for the ensuing year.HOWICK Mr Ness and Miss Maggie Ness, bave sailed for this side, and are expected home about June 30th.A well attended meeting of the English river and Howick congregations was held on Monday to decide whether they should continue hearing candidates for the vacant pulpits.As the various ministers already heard were so evenly appreciated as to prevent a unanimous call, it was decided not to give a call till others were beard.English river and Aubrey 8.schools held their annual picnic last week, which was largely attended, in spite of the unfavorable weather.An excellent program of music, recitations, games, etc, was prepared and all enjoyed themselves thoroughly.As usual, a bountifal table was spread for all and was much appreciated.Rev P.D.Muir presided, and pleased all by bis happy manner of couduct- ing proceedings.CHATEAUGUAY In the absence of the Rev J.D.Anderson, wbo is at present at the general assembly in Vancouver, B.C., the pulpits of Chateauguay and Beaubarnols Presbyterian churches are being filled by the Rev C.E.Gordon- Smith, F.8.8¢., of Montreal.Crops are coming on splendidly since the rain has set in.We have had decidedly wet weather since the first gentle showers of June 11th.Mr Durocher, a former purser op board the str.Chateauguay, which rune between Beaubarnois and Montreal, calling here on its way, has bought the Borel, a boat belonging to the Richelieu Co., bas re-named it the Beauharnois, and is running it on thie line in opposition to the Chateauguay.He has built an extension to an old wharf, which is on the upper side of the one used by the Chateauguay, and uses this for his business.On Thursday he made his first trip.On attempting to make the wharf the steamer missed it, and ran her bow into the soft sand of the river shore.The str.Chateauguay, which was in at her wharf at the time, kindly came to the assistance of the Beauharnois and towed her off into the stream again.It did not appear to be an auspicious beginning for the rival steamer.A tug, belonging to the Montreal company which dredges our river at the Basin for sand, went to the bottom of the river at the wharf early Sunday morning.It was owing to the carelessness of some employe, who leit a plug out after finishing some work, and the water running in all night caused the boat to sink towards morning.Fortunately her downward course was discovered by those on board, before any drowning fatality occurred, but not in time to avoid the sinking of the tug.All Sabbath day the men worked to raise it, and on Monday it was taken back to the city for repairs.KENSINGTON A pleasant evening was spent on Mr Jas.Black's lawn on Monday evening, when the members of the C.E.society held their annual social.The grounds were prettily decorated with Chinese lanterns, flags, etc.After refreshments were served, an interesting program was listened to consisting of songs, recitations, etc.; Mr D.H.Brown in the chair.The following persons rendered songs: W.F.Stephen, Colin Campbell, David Brown, Jes.Bell, and Ernest Busby; Heary Massam recited.Towards the closs Mr Seaward, ia the name of the society, presented the Rev A.L.Boyd, VALLEYFIELD Senator F.Young, who represents Winnipeg, and Senator R.Watson, representing Brandon, in the federal senate, were the guests of Mr D.D.McBain last week.Thru the courtesy of Mr F.Lacey, the cotton mills were opened to them.The visitors were highly pleased with both the variety and quality of the manufactured pro- duets.Senator Young, who is a native of this district, was astonished at the progress made by Valleyfield during the last decade.The only drawback found in the way of the town\u2019s further advance, was she deplorable condition of the government\u2019s works\u2014the postoffice, the dam, and theencroachment by squatters on the canal banks.The latter is not only a disgrace but a source of depreciation to the valuable surrounding property.Mr D.F.Smith and family arrived in Valleyfield on Sunday evening via N.Y.C.after a 3 months\u2019 tour in England.Mr Smith met with a hearty welcome Monday morning from the officials and staff of the M, C.Co.and prominent citizens of the town.The ladies\u2019 aid society and friends were tendered & lawn party at Mre D.D.MeBain\u2019s on Friday evening.The grounds were beaatifully decorated with a profusion of Chinese lanterns and flowers, which blended harmoniously with the dark costumes of the mammas and the snow white gowns of sweet sixteen, while the evening dress attire of the sterner sex made a favorable contrast.Refreshments were served on the lawn, and were all the more enjoyed by the accompaniment of vocal and instrumental music from a bevy of young ladies.Mr John Lowe's (jr) handsome 16 bh.p.gasoline yacht \u201cRipple\u2019 was\u2019 given a trial trip last week.She developed 12 miles an hour, without any hitch, and gave her owner good satisfaction as regards steadiness and steering.The local fleet is not only increasing in quantity but also in quality.There are rumors going, that September will inaugurate Val- leyfield\u2019s annual regattas.A party of those interested in the proposed electric street railway visited the Massena power house last week, with a view to secure the necessary power to operate the above system in Valleyfield.What's the matter with unutilized water powers in this vicinity\u2014the Beauharnois canal, St Timothy, Melocheville, L\u2019sle du Large, etc ?Two representatives of the Singer Manufacturing Co.of New York were in town last week prospecting for the acquisition of about 25 acres of land for the erection of shops for the manufacture of sewing machines.Valleyfleld offers every available facility for such a plant, land can be had at a fair price, the town has un- excelled water and railway communications, and a large laboring class.Nowhere else can the company build more cheaply, It ie now Valleyfield\u2019s opportunity of a life-time to make a serious effort and uee its best means of securing works which would give employment to 700 skilled mechanics, The council must forget its petty bickerings and personal antipathies and prove itself worthy of the responsible position it holds.The town has alreadyloet many advantageous opportunities through the inertia of its representatives.The citizens now rely upon the council to do its best.Mr Jobn Sullivan, jr., son of Mr John Sullivan, civil engineer, a last year\u2019s graduate of Valleyfield college, now student in the law faculty of Laval university, Montreal, has carried off the first prize at the recent law exams, and won the Joel Leduc purse of $30.Acarter named Michel Gendron met with a serious accident Wednesday evening of last week.While driving along the canal bank, his horse got entangled in the lines of a barge moored alongside the bank.The horse, in its efforts to extricate itself, threw the driver off his seat, which resulted in his being severely cut and bruised.No warning lights were placed on the barge, and this section of the bank is very poorly lighted.Bishop Emard has generously offered, at the close of the scholastic year, a trip to 5 of the most deserving pupils in the college.Last year the trip was to Niagara Falls; this year the trip will be to the Saguenay.The following pupils have been

with asum of money.Mr Boyd, in well chosen words, replied, and the gathering dispecued.AU theold tomato cans, tea-kettles, old rubbers, rags, eto, that are generally carted to the garbagegrounds, are being placed on the new court house grounds to raise the level of the same.GORE The school of district No 8 closed on Friday.After a short program of recitations, dialogues, etc, the teacher, Miss Diana Ferns, read the marks of the respective grades, and presented 2 prizes in each grade for highest marks obtained, also 2 for general progress.Just before the closing, Miss Susan Gilligan, in behalf of the pupils, presented the teacher with a handsome nut or card receiver with their good wishes for a bappy and successful foture.The teacher, although entirely taken by surprise, thanked the pupils in a few words which expressed her gratitude for the gift and sorrow at the separation, ATHELSTAN Some of the farmerson the 1st concession finished this week unloading 9 car-loads othay,

convention of the World's Woman's Christian Temperance Union opened here Monday, June 8th, with upwards of 400 delegates pros ent, representing most of the leading countries of the Globe.Irom Ice land to the tropics word hus come of the good work being done by the united effort of the women of the world.The drink trafic is a mighty problem, but in the children ie the hope of the future, and more and more we are realising, tbat, by teaching the evils of alcohol on the system, as it ought to be taught in every school in the land, and only so, will the solution of the problem come.The people of Geneva have welcomed us right heartily, and evinced their interest by attending the meetinge and taking a part in the discussions, and no less by opening some of their beautiful homes, and with generous hospitality receiving all the friends for a few hours of social intercourse, and refreshing us with a sight of the beauties of their gardens, with their terraces and blossoms.The waters of the lake, reflecting the blue of the sky, and the snow-capped mountains in the distance, make a picture which will long remain in the minds of all present, and, from reports of the work being done, it will not be long before Switzerland will take its place among the foremost in this great work, for God and Home and every Land.Geneva, June 10.A.J.Jack.HUNTINGDON ACADEMY.List of pupils in junior

ago this grain was not in favor with our wheat growers, but one day the Italian macaroni manufacturers found that our goose wheat is richer in gluten than wheat grown anywhere else.Macaroni is largely composed of gluten, and Ontario\u2019s summers are hot enough and her winters cold enough to develop the largest percentage of that principle in the grain.The goose wheat grown farther south is too soft to produce anything like the percentage possessed by our grain.HUNTINGDON W.C.T.U.The monthly mesting of the W.C.T.U.was hold oa Friday.Extracts from the Leaflet were read, ome being à ecientist's testimony given by Sir James Grant of Ottawa, before the Royal Bociety of Canada, in favor of total abstinence as the following extract will show: \u201cYoung men if you want a healthy brain, if you want to do intellectual work, if you want all Jour nerve force for the work before You, never touch alcohol.\u201d Another item was from Mre Sander- son\u2019s letter, written on board ship on her way to Geneva, where the world's W.C.T.U.convention is now in session.Canada is well represented, among the delegates being Mise Dougall of Montreal and Miss Jack of Chateauguay.Our corresponding secretary, Mrs Henderson, gave a de- lightlul report of the Athelstan convention, in which were many choice thoughts and hints from Mrs Boole's lecture.This report will appear in the Leaflet for July.Mrs Asa Gordon of Ottawa at a convention in Orms- town, 2 years ago, offered a gold medal to the boy or girl securing the most new members for the band of hope during the year.No effort being made that year the offer was renewed through Miss Cooper of Chate- auguay.Miss Gilberta Boyd having secured 51 new members won the Gordon medal, which is a handsome gold one.Her name is inscribed on the pin, and \u201cHuntingdon Band of Hope, 1903,\u201d on the pendant.It was presented to her by the president.The meeting was well attended and 3 new members added.Touching the death of sister the late Mrs Malcolm McNaughton, deep sorrow was expressed and a letter of sympathy was ordered to be sent to the family.The following is the annual report: In taking a retrospective view of the work done during the past year we find reasons for encouragement and gratitude.Our membership has increased considerably, our meetin , which are held on the 3rd Friday of each month, seem to be growing in interest in the cause for wbich we are laboring, and the attendance has been good, considering the many duties which claim the attention of every member of our society.During the year 2 parlor meetings bave been held, at which 4 comfortables were tacked and sent with parcels of clothing to Inspector-street mission.Contributions have been sent to the world's missionary department, to the home mission, to the Quebec brauch of the Dominion alliance, and also to help defray expenses of delegates to the world\u2019s convention.Literature and comfort bags have been seat to the lumber camps of which the Rev Mr Brown had charge.The band of hope, which is under the direction of the W.C.T.U., has held its meetings monthly from October to May.At these meetings every effort has been made not only to insti) sound temperance principles into the young, but also to keep ever before them a high moral standard.The boxes at the stations have heen supplied withgood literature.The members of the flower mission have been zealous in their efforts, for during the summer months large quantities of flowers were sent to the hospitals.Our annual concert, held in March, was a grand success.The excellent and instructive address on the \u2018Spirit of the Times,\u201d delivered by the Rev A.E.Mackenzie to a large and a{Ben- tive audience, will long be remem ed by those who bad the privilege of hearing him.A petition was sent to the council asking that no license bo granted in Huntingdon.Leaflets have been circulated bearing on the effect of narcotic drugs on the human system, the anti-cigarette legislation, etc.How blind we are to the evils that surround us! We treat them as trifles until they become as giants, stalking through our land, then, realizing our danger, we a ply to legislation for protection.What we need is more watchful, prayerful legislation in our homes, to guard our homes against the insidious entrance of the evils which prevail in all our ominion at goodly heri God has given us, 5 y toe, Mrs MacDowaLn, Recording Secretary.CANADA Dr Lorenz, the Austrian surgeon famed for straightening deformed limbs and setting dislocated joints without the use of the knife, was in Montreal 2 days, and on Monday operated on several cases at the hospitals and showed the doctors present how it was done.The festival of 8t Jean Baptiste was observed by a great demonstration in Montreal.Some feeling has been aroused by an attempt to substitute a new flag for the tricolor.The driving out of monks and nuns from France has put the repub- licin bad odor with the clergy and the use of its flag seemed to them wrong.They asked the leaders of the society to adopt instead a flag which they have devised, with a white cross on blue ground formed of horizontal and perpendicular lines, and dividing the body of the flag into 4 equal parts.On each of these quarters are fleur-de-lys, while at the intersection of the arms of the cross is a representation of the sacred heart.The new flag is not popular and the tricolor was generally displayed.Cornwall, June 19.\u2014 John Francis, the St Regis Indian who was found in a dying condition near Foulton\u2019s store in the village of Hogansburg, died on Thursday afternoon.F' particulars to hand are to the efieet that à man named John Fidridge, who is about 70 years of age and who is employed as a sawyer in the toy factory of Lanley & Silkworth at Hogansburg, was crossing the bridge in the village about 11 o'clock at night when he was set upon by the Todian Francis, who knocked him down and otherwise abused him.The old man got up and warned Francis to keep clear of him or he would fix him, The red man continued, and Eldridge drew his knife and made a gash in his throat about five inches long.Eldridge went to the hotel and went to bed.Early in the morning Andrew Foulton, a Hogansburg merchant, heard groans outside his home, and going out found Francis in a dying condition.Dr Shannon was summoned, the wound was sewn upand Francis removed toan Indian wigwam, where he died.Eldridge acknowledged the deed and said he merely defended himsell from the attack of Francis, The distriet attorney from Malone arrived at Hogansburg, but no further developments have been reported.A big row took place Saturday night, in which an Indian\u2019s horse was shot dead by the whites and a butcher, named Bacon, was pounced upon by a band of about a dozen red men and badly abused.The Indians have been boisterous of late, and have been drinking excessively and giving the authorities very much trouble.Eldridge will be committed to Malone gaol.He has a family of three children.Cornwall, June 23\u2014The coroner\u2019s jury in the case of John Eldridge, who stabbed and killed the Indian, John Francis, of St Regis, at the village of Hogansburg, on the night of the 17th, yesterday acquitted the old man on the ground that he acted in self defence.Eldridge will be released from custody today.The Indians are very much worked up over the acquittal.Three of the tribe have been killed during the past 3 years, and in every case the accused has been acquitted.They feel that the law is not being properly exercised.Two tramps arrested in the Eastern Townships, one without an arm the other deformed, proved when stripped in the jail to be washed, to lack neither arm nor shape, both being strong lusty fellows.The murder of Glory Whalen has started an agitation looking to the abatement of the tramp nuisance in Ontario.The recipe will be found in the treatment accorded two travelling gentlemen who struck Richmond, Que., the other day.They had not been in the town long enough to learn its name before they were bound for the Sherbrooke jail, where they will reside for the next six months.It costs less to maintain a tramp in jail than out of it, and he never asks for a second extension of hospitality.\u2014Montreal Gazette.New Zealand Presbyterians have taken the lead by appointing a committee to wait on the Methodists and Congregationalists of that country to consider a merging of all three denominations.Encouraged by this exsgnple, the lay conference of the Methodist church at Winnipeg has passed a resolution heartily endorsing the action of the New Zealand workers, and instructing a special committee to make enquiries with a view of definite proposals of a similar nature to Canadian Presbyterians and Congeegationalists.UNITED STATES The case of the Constable creamery receiving Canadian made butter has ended in Edward Pond and Fred Badger pleading guilty and being fined.The amount of fine has not been settled.The 900lb of butter seized is, of course, confiscated with the team and wagon.On a recent Saturday night, one Albert McDowell, who lives just across the line in Canada, and Andrew Gar- row, of Malone, had a little siesta on the fair ground, that is, they were tired and weut down there to sleep.Garrow later missed a sum of money and reported it to the sheriff's office, whereupon McDowell was apprehended near the railroad bridge in Malone the followmg Monday and sentenced by police justice Earle to 6 months in the penitentiary.He admitted the offence in order that sentence might be imposed upon him at once, rather than lie in jail 4 or 5 months awaiting the sitting of the grand jury.It is said that McDowell succeeded in getting more or less whiskey in Malone the Sunday following the the theft on which he has been committed, and was still intoxicated when arrested Monday.The Senday selling matter ought to be investigated.\u2014~Farmer.The dam at Chateaugay chasm \u2018was closed on the 18th and it took two days to fill it up to the brim.On Saturday afternoon the train running north on the New York and Ottawa railroad, while rounding a curve about two miles south ot St Regis Falls, struck and instantly killed a man who was later identified pt St Regis Falls as Charles Mitobell, À \u2014 whose house was formeriy at Danne- mora, and who at different times made his home in Chateaugay.The man was sitting on the track and is believed to bave been intoxicated from the fact that be was in that condition when seen in Santa Clara the day previous.REGULATION OF BUTTER Ottawa, June 20\u2014In the house of commons today Mr Fisher introduced a resolution to prohibit the manufacture of process butter.The bill also reiterates the present law which forbids the manufacture of oleomargarine, butterine, or other substitutes for butter.There is a clause that any butter made in a creamery shall be marked as creamery butter, and a clause that butter containing more than 16 per cent.of water shall be considered as adulterated.The use of any acid, alkali, or chemieal to cause butter to absorb water is forbidden.Penalties are established for contravention of the act.Mr Fisher explained that the necessity for this law had arisen quite recently.About 2 years ago the congress of the United States forbade the manufacture of process butter, and it was said that some of the manufacturers designed to transfer their business to this country.Mr Bell\u2014What is process butter ?Mr Fisher explained that it is poor butter which has been made over in a certain way.The trouble with it is that it will not keep.Ifeaten at once, no great harm would be done, but if mixed with other butter and sent abroad it would be sure to spoil on the way and thus injure the reputation of Canadian butter abroad.The law was required because it was feared that process butter might not come under the definition of oleomargarine, butterine or any substitute for butter.Dr Reid, of Grenville, wanted to know how a farmer's wife was going to find out whether her butter contained a fraction over 16 per cent.of water, She might find herself subject to a beavy penalty and be entirely innocent of any wrong-doing.Mr Boyd pointed out that of 105 samples of creamery butter examined at the experimental farm, theamount of water ran from 7 to 16 per cent.The great majority contained 12 or 13 per cent, and one sample, made by experts,contained over 16 per cent.A question by Mr Henderson elicted from the minister the explanation that there is no intention of requiring packages of butter to bear any marks indicating the quality.The provision made is that when butter is marked creamery butter it shall be made in a creamery.CYRUS H.McCORMICK VISITS HAMILTON.PRESIDENT OF INTERNATIONAL HARVESTER CoMPANY HERE.Visited and Inspected the Buildings, Formulated Plans for the Future and Returned to Chicago last Evening.Cyrus H.McCormick, head of the great McCormick firm of harvesting machinery manufacturers, and now president of the International Harvester Company, was a visitor to this city yesterday in company with his brother Stanley, and made a very thorough inspection of the grounds, buildings, and plant of the Hamilton concern.Yesterday's visit finally confirms the announcement made some time ago that there will be only one Canadian plant for all branches of the International Harvester company\u2019s Canadian and export trade, and that it will be in Hamilton.The visit was for the purpose of consulting, right on the grounds, as to the extensive additions that will have to be made to the buildings already erected or in the course of construction, and to formulate plans for the new buildings that will be undertaken as soon as spring opens.\u2014Hamilton Times, (Ont) Canada.London, June 23\u2014A compromise was reached today between the Natiobalist landlords and the government, whereby serious opposition to the Irish land bill is withdrawn, and, unless unexpected difficulties arise, the measure, which comes up again in the house of commons tomorrow, is likely to be speedily passed.The compromise consists in the landlords\u2019 acceptance of an amendment to clause one, enlarging the purchasing rights of thetenante.London, June 22\u2014When the house of commons went into committee today on the budget bill, Henry Chaplin (Conservative) former president of the board of agriculture, moved the rejection of the clause providing for the repeal of the grain tax.After a discussion, during which Mr Ritchie the chancellor of the exchequer, declared the tax had been of no advantage to the British farmers and had been a disadvantage to thedairymen by increasing the price ot foodstuffs, and pointed out that the whole tax fell on the consumer, the motion was defeated by 416 to 83 votes.: London, June 28\u2014At a private meeting of the Nationalist members of the Dublin corporation, which was held tonight, it was decided by 28 votes to 8 not to vote an address of welcome and loyalty to King Edward on the occasion of hismajesty\u2019s coming visit to Ireland.FEEDING WORK HORSES.FOOD REQUIRED BY THEE WORKING Hores: The boree bas a smaller stomach than the 0x, and consequently must be fod less at a time.It has less power to digest coarse foods.It eats much slower, as it must do all its chewing before the food is swallowed.For these reasons it requires & longer time to eat, and its food should be more concentrated.It wants only a little coarse food at a time.Most people feed too much rather than too little, especially of hay.According to the tables of standard rations prepared by the-German investigators, a 10001b horse requires 11.41 of digestible food daily when doing moderate work, 16.30 for average work, and 16.61 for heavy work.With a basal ration of 101 of hay, the grain needed to furnish the above quantities of digestible autriment, when consisting of a mixture in equal parts of corn and oats, would be approximately 11.51b., 151b., and 201b for the 3 sorts of labor.Lavalard who made observations covering a number of years with 32,000 omnibus, army, and draft horses, came to the conclusion that a horse performing ordinary work requires at the rate of 1.2151b of digestible nutriments per 1001b of live weight.This is equivalent to 12.1tb of digestible food daily for a 10001b horse, a quantity not inconsistent with the German standard.SUITABLE FOODS FOR HORSES.It is necessary, especially with hard working horses, that a large proportion of the dally ration be composed of the more concentrated feeding stuffs.A horse would have to consume over 401 of hay to obtain 17.71 of digestible nutriments, the approximate amount required daily by a horse at severe labor.Ten to 121b of hay daily is quite sufficient for a draft horse.The mangers of work horses on many farms are kept constantly supplied with hay, which is not only wasteful but injurious to the animal as well.Recent researches have shown that muscular effort is largely sustained by the carbo-hydrates and fats of the food, and it is probably true that rations composed of the ordinary farm products, meadow hay, straw, silage, roots, and the cereal grains will be found sufficiently rich in proteia without the addition of nitrogenous feeding stuffs.Doubtless in cases of heavy labor, the addition of a little oil meal or other nitrogenous food would be beneficial.According to the German standards the nutritive ratio should be from 1.7 to 1.9 according to the severity of labor the daily weight of protein to be from 1.5 to 2.5ib.Oats are regarded by many as essential to the maintenance of the driving or working horse, but many other foods are successfully used in their place, wheat, bran, corn,barley, dried brewers\u2019 grains, etc., are often used instead of oats without any bad results, and frequently with considerable advantage in the cost of the ration.Timothy hay, although not particularly rich in digestible nutriments, is preferred by most horsemen, chiefly on account of the freedom from dust, and the ease with which it may be distinguished from other grasses.With working horses, whose sustenance is largely supplied by the grain ration, timothy is probably the most satisfactory roughage, but bright, clean, clover is excellent for idle horses and colts, and requires very little grain in addition to form a suitable ration.SOME SAMPLE RATIONS.Some good rations for 10001 horses at moderate work are suggested by Jordan : 1.101 timothy or mixed hay 114fb oats 2.101 hay 1041hb oats and barley equal parts by weight 8.101b hay 8ib oats 41h brewers\u2019 grains 101b hay 8th oats 41d wheat 5.11th hay 341b corn 41h wheat bran 41 brewers\u2019 grains 10% hay 5 corn 41 wheat bran 7.101b hay 51 corn 641 wheat bran 8.10 fb hay Bfbs corn 61d brewers\u2019 grains 1015 hay 41 barle, 41b wheat bran 31d brewer\u2019s grains Silage, roots, and other green food may often be substituted for a minor part of the hay with advantage to the animal's appetite and health, Where the work is harder the amount of grain in the ration should be increased; but the amount of hay should remain stationary.The increase in feed should be greater proportionately than the increase in the amount of work done, and as à general rule old horses should be fed better than young ones.That judgment which comes of experience will always be a safer guide than any mechanical rules for feeding, but this is certain however, whatever feeding stuffs are used, and whatever order of feeding is adopted, regularity and unilormity should at all times prevail in both feeding and watering.If water is always available, a horse will not take 4 6.enough to injure himself, but with working horses it will always be found better to give them thelr regular and largest supply previous to feeding, and it may also bs well to supply a limited quantity after feeding.When much heated orfatigued ahores should have water only in small quantities.The Arabs have a proverb, \u2018\u2018Rest and fat are the greatest enemies of the horse.\u2019\u2019 Hard labor or an abundance of exercise should go hand in hand with heavy feeding, and when a period of idieness comes for the horse the grain ration should be cut dowa one half at least, or even withdrawn altogether where the fodder is of particularly good quality.W.C.EDWARDS METHOD OF FEEDING.Some years ago the W.C.Edwards Co., of Rockland, Ont., adopted a system of feeding their horses which has Proved very satisfactory.Mr Edwards gives the following descriptiqn of it: \u201cWeemploy say 40 horses abou our mills here in the summer season.In the rear of our stables we havea feed room where our cut straw for bedding and our cut hay, oats, and ground feed are kept; here we have 2 mixing boxes where the rations for the horses are mixed before feeding; the cut hay is put into these boxes and is thoroughly soaked with water 12 hours before it is fed.The ground feed is roixed dry, and before feeding is thoroughly mixed with the wet hay.The ration we started out with was 41b cut hay, 14fb bran, and 51b ground oats and barley to each horse night and morning, and 41b dry oats at noon only.Our horses are generally of large size, and are doing excessively hard work, and we found this ration too small for them and we gradually increased it until we settled down to this: 5b hay, 5b ground grain, and 131d of bran to each horse morning and night, and 8ib of dry oats at noon only (no hay) and this we find ample for the largest horses doing the most excessive work.Our saving is at least 10% of hay per day for each horse, and 61b of grain for each.Not only is this the case, but our horses are healthier and better in every way.Under the old system it was & common thing for us to lose from 1 to 5 horses every summer with colic and inflammation, but in the past 7 summers, under our new system, not only have we not lost one horse, but we have not had a sick horse.A much smaller ration than we feed would be ample for farm horses, or for any horses doing ordinary work.We may add, also, that with this system of feeding hay together with free use of wheat bran and a little ground oats mixed with it, we find that we can develop colts in a manner that we have never seen them developed before.\u2019 F.W.HODSON, Live Stock

the weather.It rained beavily during the night and the morning looked far from settled.Altogether 325 ventured on the trip, of whom 97 were from this village.Had the weather been favorable 600 would bave boarded the train.Those who went had no cause to regret do- = ing so, for, while we had a heavy shower on the south of the St Lawrence, it was dry at Ottawa, and an enjoyable day was spent.The majority paid a visit to theexperimental farm.By some oversight there was no official fo guide the visitors and explain what was to be seen, so the full benefit of the visit was not obtained by those who went to learn.In tbe afternoon the parliament buildings were the attraction, and all had a chance of seeing the house in session, how business is done, and of getting a sight of the leaders.The train left sharp on time and made a rapid run homewards, reaching here at 9.80.The agricultural society, which got up the excursion, will net a small sum by its venture.\u2014On Friday at the semi-annual meeting of St Andrew\u2019s congregation it was decided to go on with the building of a new church; Archd.Muir, senr., presided.The retiring managers were re-elected, with the exception of Mr Alex.McNaughton who wished to retire.Dr Walker was chosen for the vacancy.The committee appointed to canvass the congregation regarding a new church reported through their chairman, Mr Philps, who
