completed and give universal satisfaction.Unforeseen difficulties had to be encountered in sinking the supply pipe in the river, or this result would have been arrived at before, although operations were only commenced in Mov last.Ou Wednesday afternoon the board of municipal councillors, accompanied by the coutractors, Messrs.Berger & Brique, inspected the works, aud were thoroughly pleased with all they saw.At the engine- Bouse opposite Nun's lsland a water pres sure of 110 lbs.to the square inch was obtained, and bose being attached to hydrants both there and in the village, a stream was thrown to three times the height of any building in the municipality.The engine waa worked from 20 to 100 Ibs pressure, and it was shown how easily that ure could he increased or lowered.ntil late on Christmas Eve the workmen were engaged opening the vaives to let the water to the houses.The ordinary water pressure will be 40 lbs.to the square inch, but in case of fire tbis will be increased to 75 lbs.About 1,800 houses take the water, besides several large factories.Not a single leak has been discovered in the 8} 1miles of pipes laid.The cost of the works is between $130,000 and $140,000.The contractors are to receive debentures to the extent of about $60,000, and will have the privilege of collecting the water taxes for 26 years on the saine scale æ is charged in Montreal.Water will be granted free up to January the first, 188 It is not improbable that other Western suburbun mnnicipalities will take their water supply from Ste.Cunegonde hefore long.The formal inauguration of the works will take place early in vanuary.Tele- phic communication between the engine- Fone and the village fire station is expected to be completed in two days, the telegraph posts being already up, and the fire-engine will tben be nold aa -oon as possible, and two or three of th.firemen discharged.A telephone will counect Mesars.Berger & Beique's office in the city with Ste C'unegonde village and also with the engine-house.So far the drainage in the municipality is not very apnuplete, but this will be remedied as soon as the finances permit.Businens Troubles.Wm.A.Charlebois.trader, Montreal,

Only those familiar with the enormous social barrier which fences out the whole rest of the world from the sacred persans of the higher grades of English aristocracy can couceive what a marvelous concession to the power of love this is.The Duchess, although she has a son, the present Duke, about 14 years old, is-gtill very young and bandsome.1 sap- we may de that her marriage with the Duke was, ou both sides, one of intarest.She married, perhaps, for title\u2014he, perhaps, for money.She is the heiress of the great banking-house of Hope, and the family country seat, Hopedene, is one of the grandest castles England boasts among her many such.To make a long story shor, they separated, etverybody in London knowing that the Duke's friend for many years was Kate Santley, the blonde burlesque actress who played The Black Crook in New York.There were different stories about this alliance, some saying that it wns the Duke who took theatres for Kate Santloy in London, 60 as to keep her up ns à star, and others averring that he was poor, and that it was the burlesque actress who supplied him with funds ont of her professional earnings.Meantime, the affection which had sprung ap between the Duchess and Tom Hohler, the tenor, was also a Inatter of common observs- tion, though not one of scandal, becanse their condnct was discreet snd noble.One day last winter the Duke died suddenly in his lors rooms in St.- James\" street, and Katé-Santlev paraded the street for à montit-} - in widow's weeds.year is about to c 1 sappose the widow's , 80 that now the cu- gagement between tenor and the Duchess may be announced.I saw them driving together the other day.She is lovely, aris- Socratic, sweet, exquisitely dressed.What a rize for him | He is a nice, fresh-looking inglishman, sings prettily, and of course is desperately in Jove.I hear that he is half wild at bis good fortune.Hetold a friend of mine that it was in every way such a stroke of good luck for him that he was afraid to czpes the stroet lest he should be run over before the hoppy day came.Tom Hehler is the tenor who supported Miss Kallogg in her first London engagement, twelve years ago.His father is a clergyman, snd Î su whatever parental wrath may have ensued on his fiat step in life will completely vanish at the marvelously successful one he is now shout to take.After ManyDays.Anothes disti
