[" Emnatian Gleaner \u201c Hewrmeson,g., Jors 20, 1908 \u2014 NOTES OF THR WERK s \u2014 * \u2018The house of commons has béen © discussing at weary length the division of the new provinces into electoral districts.- The opposition charged that the government was arranging the boundaries of the constituencies to suit itself, that, in short, it was gerrymandering the provinces.How far the charge is true it would be difficult to say, for - the - distribution of population is largely guese-work and the stream of immigration is so large that daily changes take place.Itis not expect- ted the educational clauses will receive much attention, and the bills may be disposed of this week, when it is expected Mr Fielding will make his budget-speech and the session hurried to its close.With such a multiplicity of details to attend to, it would be unreasonable to hold ministers responsible for every action of subordinates, but this much is not unreasonable, that when a crooked act is brought to light they shall punish with severity.Not long ago dishonesty was brought home to a postmaster, and instead of acting as he ought to have done Postmaster-general Mulock condoned the offence, apparently for party reasons.On Monday the case ofa land-agent at Macleod, N.W.T., was ventilated.He had sold town lots \u2018and pocketed the money.The department after compelling restitution to the persons defrauded, appointed the offender, who had a atrong political pull, immigration agent at $75a month.A somewhat heated debate ensued in which the new min, ister of the interior cut a contemptible figure, During it Mr Bergeron brought up afresh scandal.Towards building a railway bridge across the Richelieu at Sorel the government had promised a bonus of 15 per cent.onits cost.The bridge was built - and a demand made for 15 per cent.on $219,000.The auditor-general had- his suspicions all was not straight, and sent an engineer to examine the bridge.He reported its full value was $100,000 less than demanded.Demanding the accounts of the bridge, the auditor found its actual cost to have been only $98,- 000, and on that amount the 15 per cent.was paid.That was a big cheat.A trifling one, but of the same * stamp, the auditor mentioned to the committee of accounts.An official was sent to England.In his bill of expenses, he charged $10 a day for the time he was on the ocean.The auditor, unable to see how he could be at any legitimate expense on the passage, when his ticket was paid for, docked the amount, and the official protested asone wronged of his .due, because others had done the like.Why is that official not discharged ?: * The electoral divisions of Montreal, St Ann and St Lawrence, are largely Baglish-speaking, and there has been an unwritten agreement that the first should be represented by an English-speaking Catholic and the other by a Protestant.The death of James Cochrane having left the eent for St Lawrence division vacant, there is strife as to vrho should fill it.At a Liberal cancus on Monday Mr Leet, K.C., urged the claims of him- as a Protestant and was hooted down, During Mercier\u2019s time Mr Leet was one of the few Protestants who supported his policy and had & -Freat deal to say about the bigotry \u201c and narrow-mindedness ofthose who 7 declined toswallow the Jovyit estates «bill, It is too bad thegentlemen who thea cheered him and patted him on the back should now prove ungrate- fal by preferring one of theyiseives.The motive for the murder of Ellen na remaine unknown.That she ; es done to death by ernel hands, bat by whom and with what object isa mystery.Detective McCaskill eoufessed \u2018the cane beat him,and that lp bad failed to find the tightest dibe.That she had ne money in the | carpenters are at work, The masters mom As American lady while ou à tour thw Canads visited a far-etore is Montreal and was persuaded to buy 8 fardined mantle under the promise that it would be delivered to her at her bome.She paid the price asked, $75.The storchesper tried \u2018to smuggle the mantle; it was seised and confiscated by U.8.officers.The lady asked that her 875 be returned to her.The storekeeper refused, alleging she was cognizant of the fact that the mantle was to be smuggled and, therefore, sharedin the risk of seizure.This she denied and sued in the Montreal court for her $75.Judge Purcell held that, even if she knew the mantle was to be smuggled, there wasno agreement that the lady had assumed the risk of delivery, and ordered.the store keeper to pay back to her the $75, The hope that the building season would pass in Montreal without a strike has been blasted, for the carpenters afe now out.- This is unfortunate.The city needs more houses, and just while the want was being provided so far as our limited open- season will admit thereis astoppage.The strike is not merely one for wages (30 cents an hour is asked) but for control over the masters as to what men of other trades they shall employ on buildings at which are asked to bind themselves that they shall not employ non-union plumbers, bricklayers, masons, or plasterers.That is the sort of tyranny which has met with a decisive defeat in Chicago.The teamsters, in their desire to aid other employes, would not haul for nonunion houses, and have learned there is a limit to masters being dictated to.The produce market keeps steady.The expectation that cheese would decline as the make increased has not been realized and prices continue satisfactory.The shipments are larger than last year.Unless the English market is more bare of last year's \u2018goods than was supposed, adrop will take place.So far,theEnglishmen take all that is sent.Butter is firm.The muggy weather of the past fortnight has affected the quality and cuts are unpleasantly common.In eggs, there is quite a diffeganice between the price of fresh gath nd candled, due to the heated term we have passed thru.Oats reached the 50-cent point last week and are firmly held at that figure.Large quantities have been shipped to Europe since navigation opened and stocks are low.Despite considerable shipments of hay, the demand is quiet.Crop reports from the south and west continue favorable, and have caused slightly lower quotations for wheat and flour.A fall in the price of bacon in England has caused a drop here in hogs, notwithstanding they are scarce, The administrativesystem of Great Britgin has been so exceptionally pure that the charge made of jobbery in connection with supplying the army during the Boer war has some as an unexpected shock.Altho the evidence is not complete there is no reason to question the truth of the general accusation, that by collusion between contractors and commissariat officials the government was robbed of an immense sum.Premier BaWonr has come out manfully by agreeing to an investigation, The chief prosecutor, indeed the man who unearthed the scandal, is Lieut.General Sir Wm.Butler, whom a few in Huntingdon will recall as the Captain Butler who tank 90 active a part in the Fenian raid of 1870, Angiety as tothe possibility of war between Germany and Frances not ended, tho\u2019 the general belief now is, that a friendly settlement will be reached.A conference of Powers interested.in Morocco has been proposed and negetiations to that end are now going on.The French government i» taking no chaness, for it is quietly getting ready its army in the event of the worst - Of what is going on in Manchuria little can be oald, beyond that no great battle bas taken place.There have been movements of troops on a large sonle and daily encounters of some severity, but no general engage: ment.At feet Oem, Lineviteh, in bis brief despatches, claimed to have the bent ia theese skirmicher, but of Into be_ frankly tells of his troopeiplng Wislodghd and fovesd to retire, whith \u201d jones taie so bo an indisstion that) own after finishing at Howick asd he is preparing Russia for bad gears.The) aps areunquestionably doubling wp the Russian right and left wings and there is an unconfrmed rumor that a divisiog of the Russian army was surrounded after a futile vosist- ance.À movement on à large scale of the Japs to cut off Viadivostok is reporters who are hundreds of miles away from the scene of the expeditions they profess to tel} of, The negotiations looking to peace are progressing slowly and it is now expected a conference of representatives of the two governments will open in Washington thesecond week in August.Japan rejects all overtures for suspending military operations in view of the conference.She has made arrangements for the campaign and intends it shall go on.The internal troubles of Russia grow more menacing daily.From every section come reports of unrest and discontent, giving indications of a possible revolution.The weakening of garrisons in the south and east has given an opportunity for the mixed populations of those sections to fly at each others throats, while Poland has made another blind stroke for freedom.» Troops which are needed in Manchuria have to be kept at home, and of the two the troubles at the door cause more anxiety to the Czar and his advisers than the advancing armies of Japan.The latter can be stayed by agrecing to terms of peace, the former will be satisfied with nothing short of uprooting the existing system of government.ORMSTOWN There wifl be no celebrations here Dominion day.The farmers\u2019 picnic being the only attraction in this vicinity, .The boat, Shamrock, now runs up the river every evening, and will also run during the day if enough passengers wish to go.The round trip to Dewittville takes about one hour.Fare 25e.Eggs continue high.ing paid by the stores, The valuators are just finishing up a tour of the parish of 8t Malaghie, Owing to the size of the parish, it takes about 3 weeks to complete the work.\u2019 - The lawn tennis club goes to Val- leyfield Dominion day to play a friendly game with that club, The consolidated school as it was first offered to Ormstown is no longer within our reach.Had the first offer been accepted at once suitable buildings would have been erected and full equipment provided for the thorough management of the school during three years without any extra expense to the schools entering into consolidation.The intention dt that time was to make it an object-lesson fat the schools in this province.This first offer has been withdrawn and we shall likely sce the ehjoct-lessan achool erected at Bt Anne's as 8 part of Sir William MacDonald's great educational en: terprise there.What he offers now is, that if six schools will enter into consolidation with the village school he will pay the half of the cost of all the buildings required for their ac- commodaties, and invest $17,000 to yield in perpetuity an ernug! revenue of $700 for the upholding of the echoel.This is regarded by some asa more dwirable offer than the first, as it seems to afford greater assurance of permanence thai that did.It rests with the ratepayers to Ascept or reject it.oc\u201d HOWICK _ Opposition to removal of Rives, field day school building has been s0 strong that the idep has been abandoned, Rev Brandt of Point ans Trembles school was invited by the W.M.society to address meetings here in the interests of missions at their thank gatherings, held at Riverfield and\u2019 Georgetown, Theanlieptions amounted to about $30.While bere M; Brandt availed himself of the opportunity to speak publicly and piivate iy on behalf of the French school and solislt subseriptions in aid of extensive repairs to be made.Up to the present he has met with success, one subecription of $100 being given and another of $60.Be will visit George.16c still be- solos, as in her inimitable singing of coon songs to the accompaniment of & banjo played by herself.She roused the audience to the highest pitch of enthusiasm, Miss Henderson of South Georgetown has reached great skill on the autoharp and was heartily applauded.Games and refreshments completed a pleasant evening's amusement.Miss Hyslop, ial ceganiser of the W.C.T.U., addressed a moet- ing in Knox church here on Monday night; Rev G.Whillans presiding.She held the attention of the people from beginning to end of her address, making an eloquent appeal for support and sympathy in the efforts put forth for the suppression of the liquor traffic.RIVERFIELD .A bright day, a happy crowd, successful event, and much encouragement to little folks and the workers.Such were the feelings of the people with reference to their annual 8.8.picnic which event took place in Mr William Templeton\u2019s grove on Friday.The grove is an ideal place for the picnic; the workers had neglected nothing that could insure a happy day.Swings were going, the tables were loaded with good things, and after dinner a fine program of patriotic songs, dialdgues, recitations, and a drill was proceeded with, reflecting credit both on children and those who had trained them.Rev].M.Kellock was in the chair, and interspersed the program with humorous remarks.Rev E.H.Brandt, principal of Pointe aux Trembles, made a happy and interesting address, making the people merry by his witty sallies, In the races little boys and girls, young men and maidens, and even the older men, all showed what they could do.A hearty vote of thanks was tendered Mr and Mrs Templeton for their kindness to the children and friends of English river and Norton Creek Sunday school.\u2019 : HEMMINGFORD Thru the exertions of our member at Quebec, Mr Walker, an additional grant of $200 has been obtained for the swamp road nprth-west- of Merlin's, ROCKBURN \u2026 À few daysago, while Alfved Waller was cultivating potatoes, his eye] was attracted by a bright spark in a lump of earth, Picking it up and breaking away the dirt, which was quite hard, he found 9 gentleman's plain heavy ring, 18 k., hearing the date 1872.\u2018 The ring is in perfect condition and Mr Waller is justly proud of the find, ATHELSTAN I A pleasant lawn social was held at the manse Friday evening.The grounds looked beautiful in their coat of green.Altho\u2019 the evening was somewhat cool, there was a £99] attendance.The Huntingdon avhestra was present and played during the evening with much ac ceptance, loegream, strawherries, bananas, and orangle were sold during the evening and $45 was realized, which goes towards getting a new furnace for the church.Last week our

from Thos.Parlinger, Dundee.Ou May 16 Alex.and James Farlinger drove the cows out of the field and gave them to the pound keeper, Maiaville, as stray cattle.When Morris went to claim them he explained to Mainville that the cows were not strays, but had been driven out of a field of which he is occupant under a lease.He paid the $1.25 under protest.\u2018The cows were again impounded when Morris took ont a writ of revendication for 8175, their value at $35each.From the cvi- dence it appeared the cows had been let go after the writ had been issued, so that the case was one of who who appeared for Mainvillé, argued that be, as a public officer, appointed pound-keeper by the Dundee council, could not be held liable for anything he had done in the discharge of his duty.In an elaborate decision the judge held that the cattle were not astray, that they were not found in the public road or where they ought not to have been, but, while grazing in a icld rented by Morris, they had been driven out and given to Main- ville.Evidence showed Mainville knew these facts and in impounding the cows he had not acted as a municipal officer but had acted as the servant or agent of Alex.and James Farlinger.Judgment for Morris.The costs exceed $100.Mr Mitchell, K.C., for Morris.Eusebe Lefebvre of Barrington alleged that, last winter, Aime Remil- lard of Henrysburg came to his place with a number of men todraw wood from land in rear of his lot.Lefebvre objected to their crossing his land, but Remillard and his men persisted, and in so doing had cut up his yard and injured his property generally.-He asked $98 damages.Remillard did not deny forcibly crossing Le- febvre's lot, but alleged had done trifling damage.He paid into court $3 damages, and $3 costs, Plaintiff refused tender asinsufficient and called several witnesses.At the close of the case the judge ordered Remillard to pay $9 damages and $40 costs, Trudeau for Lefebvre; Emile Meriggo for Remillard.The evidence in the case of Marchand va Prevost was completed, Argument postponed until after vacation.GAULT INSTITUTE, VALLEYFIELD.Valleyfield, Jane 23.\u2014The annual distribution of prizes to the junior departments of the Gault institute took place this evening, in the presence of a large gathering of parents and friends and was one of the most successful in the history of the institute.The hall was heautifully decorated with streamers, and the stage with ferns and flowers.By far the most interesting to the pupils was the pile of costly prizes, more numerous this year than ever before, Of the prizes, those for general proficiency, were the gift of Mrs A.F.Gault, who, altho now residing in England, continues to manifest a deep intoreat in the welfare of the institute; those for regular attendance and punctuality were donated by Dr and Mrs Sutherland; those for English, by Mrs Fred Lacey, and those for sewing, by Mrs 8, H.Ewing.Besides these all thekindergarten children and the little ones in the old academy school received prizes, the gift of Mrs D.F.Smith, who also gave prizes for good conduct in the old academy.It has been the custom for some years to give prizes to those pupils wha were never late o absent once during the schoal year, and this year it is worthy of note that no less than 38 pupils received those prizes.Dr Sutherland, chairman of the board of trustees, presided, and there were also present James A.Robb and Fred Lacey, school trustees, and the local clergy.The program was exceedingly well carried out by the little people, and the teachery are to he'oqngratijlated on the evidences af catefyl training that they showed.A very interesting feature of the evening was the resentation of a very beautiful gold ocket and chain to.Miss C, Brown, the teacher of sewing in theinstitute, as a token of appreciation from the parents of the girls in the sewing classes.With to the sewing we might mention that Miss Pechigs, Shey Migs m ocl, very Kindly camé qut a week ago,

serious phase of it was when the crowd deliberately pillaged liquor shops, and a number of persons, inflamed by drink, led a crowd mare serious attacks.The police and - military wereattacked wherever they appeared in small force and many individual members were killed.After pillaging liquor shops the crowd set fire to them and prevented the fre- men from putting out the biases, This was repeated deliberately at many places.The fury of the mob found full vent, and even children, caught by the contagion, were seen kissing red flags and heard swearing they were ready to die for liberty.A Jewish girl mounted a box in the market square and addressed an immense crowd.Suddenly the police appeared and fired a volley and the girl felldead.Market gardeners coming in were stopped and their carts used in building barricades.Wires were stretched infront of these barris cades and the cavalry were unable to charge.Meanwhile the mob had secured arms and revolvers were freely used.Finally the the military secured the upperhand,but not without considerable losses to themselves and slaughter to the rioters.The soldiersexhibited the utmost carelessness as to whether they killed peaceful persons or rioters, and as a consequence many women and children were among the dead.The streets on Friday resembled a battlefield, The houses were barricaded with boards and mattresses,and for hours\u201d ( volleys and individual firing were heard in every quarter of the city, Cossacks, dragoons, and infantry charged the mobs time after time, firing volley after volley into the crowds, The rioters replied with revolvers while theircomradeson roofs and in windows joined in the fusilade, Some dashed vitrol from points of vantage upon the troops in the streets below.The buming fluid drove its victims into a frenzy and led to scenes of horrible character, Fighting continued throughout the * \u2018 day, and only diminished in its intensity at nightfall, when the city was plunged into utter darkness; as practically all the street lamps had been destroyed.Even, then, occas sional volleys and isolated rifle shots were heard in different quarters.Ut til late at night the Cossacks were busy collecting the bodies of the dead and picking up persons seriausly wounded.The bodies were carried offin carts \u2018to neighboring churchyards, bence the impossibility of giving accurate lists of the ead until order is completely restored, if, indeed, the full story is ever told.Cos.sacks are robbing the dead of jewels and money.June 25\u2014The most serious ra 2 of the fighting between the mil and the strikers is gt an pnd, Bat there are atill jsalated attacks in the aubarhe.This morning Cossacks attacked a Jewish family of 5 persons who were driving in a cab tothe railway station, and shot and killed all, including the cabman.Workmen RL GE attacked 2 policemen and shot ad killed one and wounded the other.~ There is à gmeral exodus from Lode, Twelve thousand persons hyve al: ready left, and ail trains are crawds ed.During the disturbances 38 government liquor stores were destroyed by the moh, who appropriated afl the cash and stamps found on the premises, which they added to the
