lines will be arranged throughout the Three Villages, connection with Sherbrooke being established via Beebe Plain.At present seven men are employed on the work at the latter place.Ie\u201d pi avi party finished 8 work east of Lake Memphrema- gog on Saturday, thus completing the international boundary survey from Hall\u2019s Stream, the headwaters of the Connecticut River, on the east, and Lake Memphremagog on the west.The \u201csheets\u201d are about fifty inches long and sbow all elevations, buildings and monuments.The scale is 1785s of actual size, and the sheet which directly concerns this place covers a strip approximating a mile in width and extending from Albert Smith\u2019s house in Barnston township to the cross road at the \u2018line house\u2019 below North Derby.It will be realized that upon eo small a sheet covering such a large territory the detail must be very minute, and that buildings must be represented by mere dots, altbough these dots conform to the shape of the buildings.While the general width of the strip covered is one mile (half a mile in each country) where important roads following the general course of the \u201clne\u2019 swerve outward at any point the chart is broadened to include them.The lines on the chart are automatically recorded by delicate mathematical instruments, the distance, between each line representing a difference of twenty feet in level, everything being reckoned from the level of the sea.The irregularity of contour in this particular locality, Mr.C.H.Van Orden, who has had charge of the work, considers very remarkable.On account of this irregularity, the chart is, he declares, the handsomest \u2018\u2018eheet\u2019\u2019 he has ever seen.In other words if the country were partially filled with water, the shore line would be more irregular than that of any body of water with which Mr.Van Orden is familiar and he has seen many years of service in the U.S.coast and geodetic survey, and also had an extended experience as an engineer of municipal and private corporations.The gorge through which the Tomifobia flows, Mr.Van Orden is inclined to believe, was formed by the breaking away of a succession of lakes and ponds, although the river banks even now a\u201d pear to be very susceptible to erosion.East of the Smith place the \u2018\u2018sheets\u2019\u2019 cover a strip approximating two miles in width, but there was much less detail to be worked out in that section as the country is mostly wooded.Although in charge of an American, this work is being done jointly by the two governments.Associated with Mr.Van Orden in the work are Messrs.R.J.Byrnes, of Osgood Hall, Toronto, 1.Pounder, Toronto University, G.L.Rainboth, Queen\u2019s, Kingston, R.Dixon, Goderich, Ont., and Oliver Choin- niere, St.Hermengilde, Que.Duplicate charts will be possessed by each government, so that neither would have any strategic advantage in case hostilities should arise, which, however, ls altogether unlikely.The work has been greatly retarded by the wet weather throughout the season, but {t is anticipated that progress will now be much more rapid as better weather conditions are likely to prevail and there are tewer buildings west of the lake.The sheet covering this immediate locality is regarded by both parties as the most Interesting as well as the most important chart within the jurisdiction of Messrs.Baylor and Ralnboth, joint commissioners of the U.8.and Canadian governments, because at no other point are the two countries so closely woven together, the \u201cline\u2019\u2019 being almost entirely disregarded in the building of the \u201cThres Villages.\u201d TOWN TOPICS.Mr.W.K.Hardlig arrived home from New Ontario, Saturday.Mr.and Mrs.Stanton of

ORCHESTRA.French Musician Made the Squealers Sing a Tune.During the reign of Louis XL of France there was attached to his court one Abbot de Baigne, n wan of cop.siderable wit.The abbot was somewhat musically inclined and delighted tho court with inventions of odd musical instraments One day the king, after having enjoyed a hearty laugh over one of these curfous contrivances and destring to baffle this musfcal gentus, commanded him to produce harmonious sounds from the cries of hogs.This scemed an Impossibility to the king, and he prepared himself to enjoy the discomfiture of the abbot.Much to his surprise, however, the abbot readily agreed to produce them.All he required was a sum of money, apon receipt of which he declared he woul Invent the most surprising thing ever heard in the way of musica} atroc- ty.He scoured the country and secured a large number of hogs, trying their voices as to pitch and quality, and finally, having fully satisfied himself, be arranged the animals in a sort of pavilion richly decorated.The day of the trial arrived, and the king and bis court entered the pavilion prepared for something, but greatly In doubt as to the success of the abbot with the bogs However, there were the hogs, sure enough, and, much to the surprise and delight of the king, they commenced to cry harmoniously and in good tune, rendering an air that was fairly ree

Thotnas Coryate of Odcombe published his \u201cCrudities\u201d in 1611.Pepys took his epoon and fork with him to the lord mayor's feast in 1663.The absence of forks led to much stress being laid upon the act of washing the hands both before and after menls and to the rule tbat the lett hand alone should be dipped into the common dish, the right hand being occupied with the knife, The perfect dinner at the best time of English cookery consisted of three conrses, ench complete In itself, and terminated by ua subtlety or device, the whole being rounded off with ypocrus, after which the guests retired into another room, where pastry, sweetments and fruit were served with the choicer wines.The English were essentially ment enters, nnd it was not until the time of the commonwealth that pudding attained its extraordinary popu larity.Indeed, the first mention of pudding in the menus of the Buckfeast at St.Bartholomew's hospital did oot occur until 1710, and in 1712 is an item of 5 shillilugs for ice \u2014 London Times POINTED PARAGRAPHS.Vanity Im a woman (s had enough, but conceit in a man is worse.You can't tell anything about a man by his looks.Like mince ples, some of them can look very innocent.If you can't have your way, take consolation from the fact that every man encounters his stone wall When parents are old and poor and become a charge to their children tho children often act like all persons act who have been paid in advance, How profligate we are with the hours of rest when it is bedtime and how we haggle over the fiying minutes when it Is time to get up in the morning!

thousands of square miles of rich land grew yellow with corn, and the long-barren Western States became a veritable Land of Goshen.And all this was the work of a few years, of one man\u2019s tireless fertile brain and unconquerable will.Having conquered one world, and created a new and flourishing country to supply the world with wheat, Mr.Hill set to work on new, if kindred, enterprises.He built a fleet of luxurious passenger steamers for the great American lakes, and another fleet of large cargo-ships to carry flour, grain, and lumber.His next ambition was to capture the Pacific trade; and for this purpose he has built a fleet of ocean steamers far eclipsing any others in size and carrying power.Each of these vessels, it is said, is as large as those two leviathans, the \u2018Campania\u2019 and \u201cLucania,\u201d put together; it has a measurement of 28,000 tons, and five acres of deck-room; while its cargo requires twenty miles of yard-tracks to accommodate it.And these are THE FANATIC MOORS.\u201cTo read of the behavior of the Moors, as mere robbers and plunderers, without mercy and with little discrimination, one would say that it was time they were brought under government, as the cup of their iniquity would seem to be full,\u201d says the Witness.\u2018\u2018In actual carnage, the merciless guns of the French fleet have done more slaughter and with less discrimination.But for brutal atrocity, the Moors, from such accounts as we receive through their victims and their enemies, hardly differ from fienda.The mountain tribes would seem to have looted the Moorish townspeople of Casablanca as well as the Jews, though they would appear to bave been careful to spare the English.As far as driving out the infidel fs concerned, it is to be remembered that by all their sacred traditions, by the teachings of their prophet and the example of the earlier khalifs, a Mo- bammedan can do no holier deed than slay an infidel.If it does not help him to a8 harem on earth it will in heaven.His attitude of mind towards a fem of the dorfal man we Bi them is like that of Isreal towards the ears, ago was serving in a country morites.By bewing them in pieces, years, ag .g ;

and he values his riches chiefly because they enable him to do some good service to humanity.In making his own fortune he is proud to remember that he has made, to a greater or lesser extent, that of thousands of others, and has added enormously to the food resources of the world.: But the best day's work he ever did in his strenuous life was that which secured for him the \u201cbest wife in the world,\u201d whose companionship has brightened his life, and to whose help and encouragement he owes most of his brilliant achievements.Seldom bas there been a more ideal union than that of the St.Panl wharf-porter and Mary Mahegan, the lovable maid of the inn.She ehared her husband's days of poverty and struggle;

station, Monday afternoon seriously injuring T.Williams, superintendent of the Eastern division of the C.P.R.Mr.Williams was sitting on the seat in front when the car jumped, turning sidewise and crushing his legs against the rails.One leg was broken just above the ankle; the other leg was behind the apron of the car and was badly crushed and bruised, but not broken.J.D.Clark, bridge and building master, who was running the car, escaped with a few cute and bruises.Forty feet below the surface in A.O.Norton\u2019s copper mine in Ascot township, near Little Lake Magog, an eight-foot vein of exceptionally rich ore is said to have been, discovered.Mr.Norton has great faith in the property; he has invested about twenty thousand dollars in new machinery, including a 100 h.p.engine and boiler, and a crusher which will be installed shortly.Mr.Norton acquired the mine from the estate of the late Col.King.C.E.Kennedy of Beebe Plain owned an interest in the property before his connection with \u201cGolconda,\u201d located in the same district.The People\u2019s Telephone Company have just completed a line through to the mines from North Hatley, a distance of five miles, and

Knowlton, Tuesday.Ten years ago a Historical Society was organized in the County of Brome, baving its headquarters at Knowlton.A few relics were donated by interested parties for the nucleus of a museum.A room inthe upper story of the Academy was arranged for that purpose, and little by little the muse- am has grown.A few years since the Paul Holland Knowlton property was made attractive with neatly kept walks, perennial and annual plants, and now it might be eaid that it is \u201cA thing of beauty and a joy forever.\u201d À picture gallery has been started and several portraits in ofl

Joseph O.Gale, aged 87 years, passed away, and on Wednesday the husband breathed his last after being told of the desth of his companion of 67 years, at the age of 88 years.The double funeral was beld Thursday afternoon from the residence of Len.Gale, son of the deceased.Henry Lacroix, Waterville, aged about 30 years and employed in the Gale factory at that place, died suddenly Sunday morning.It was thought that his death might have been caused by a blow received some weeks ago, but the autopsy did away with that presumption.Miss Olara Willard of Bishop's Crossing was thrown from a horse rake while assisting her brother in the bay fleld Saturday, the horse having become frightened and unmanageable.She fell in front of the teeth and was dragged about four rode when one wheel struck a stone pile raising the teeth sufficiently to release the victim who was picked up unconscious and bleeding from cuts on her head.Ope shoulder bone was broken and she received other injuries, but is recovering.No.3 wheel house at the works of the Hamilton Powder Co., Windsor Mills, blew up shortly after midnight Monday during the severe thunder storm.In the building was one charge ol powder which was being put through the machinery, and it ie supposed that this was struck by lightning and exploded.Willis Cox of Cherry River, met with a severe accident on the Bog Road the other day.He was driving a single rig towards Magog, and just after crossing the Cherry River bridge his horse shied at something he did not see.The wagon was flung towards the edge of the road and struck a telephone pole, and Mr.Cox was thrown violently to the ground, receiving severe injury to his head and back.He was taken to the home of his brother-in-law, Mr.A.O.Norton, and doctors were at once called.His injuries were considered dangerous, but he is now understood to be recovering.During a lightning storm on the 7th inst., Mr.and Mre.J.W.Downos of Brookbury, Compton county, had a close call.When the Downes house was struck Mrs.Downes stood with one hand on the door knob, Mr, Downes in the same position out-side being about to enter the kitchen.The electric current seems to have divided, one bolt paesing down the chimney, another down the stairs and out the front door making a groove in the floor about an inch wide.The stove was demolished, the current which went in that direction passing through the floor and tearing along the lining boards to the outside door, Mrs.Downes\u2019s shoes and stockings were torn to shreds, leaving only the soles, which were of rubber, on her feet.Although badly busned she escaped serious injury in some miraculous manner, IN A CEMETERY.Br ANNA M.TOMKINS.How beautiful, how still, is Holy burial hin, Where all of love that dies \u201cBlissfully

Holstein-Friesians are essentially a dairy breed and are so regarded in America, yet as an all round dairy breed the matter of beef and veal must not Le lost eigüc of, and in Holland these are very important points.There few cattle are allowed to pass thelr seventh year, but before they pass out of their prime they are fattened and sold as beef.Owners and breeders of Holstein-Friesian cattle base their claims for the superiority of this breed over all other dairy breeds mainly on the following points: First, that the Holstein-Friesian is a large, strong, vigorous cow, full of energy and abounding in vitality; second, that her physical organization and digestive capacity are such that she is able to turn to the best advantage the roughage of the farm, converting the same Into merchantable products; third, that she yields large quantities of most excel lent milk fit for any and all uses and especially well fitted for shipping purposes; fourth, that heredity is so firmly established through her long lineage that she is able to perpetuate herself through the production of strong, healthy calves, and.fifth, that when for any reason ber userulness in the dairy is at an end she fatteus readily and makes excellent beef, The wonderful development of the udder of the Holstein shown in the 1l- ie if Ly UDDER OF HOLSTEIX.lustration gives one some idea of the amount of milk these animals are capable of giving.This cow, Seven years old, has never been tested since she was four years old, when she made 19 pounds 6 5-10 ounces butter in seven days.She has a capacity now of ninety pounds milk and twenty-seven pounds butter.Test the Herd.Every day brings tidings of the destruction of valuable herds of cows because of tuberculosis.Why all this destruction?Simply because the men who owned the cattle did not inform themselves thoroughly concerning the disease.Why should farmers nurse and coddle this disease, keep it and hide it and refuse to know the truth, flattering themselves in a weak way that their \u201ccows are all right?It is not an expensive matter to test a herd.If the disease is there, shouldn't the farmer know it as soon as possible?If it presents a clean bill of health shouldn't he be vigilant to keep !t 80?It 1s a simple matter.Start clean, snd then keep clean, says Hoard's Dal- ryman.Test regularly every year.Never take In an animal that has not been tested.Use disinfectants, such as whitewash and carbolic acid, freely.Put the King system of ventilation in the stable.Spend a little money to be safe rather than lose a lot of it In slaughtered cattle.These are all common sense precautions, just plaln common sense.Some people ask us If we think the country will ever be cleared of tuberculosis.Probably not.But it 1s no great thing for any farmer to Keep his farm clear of it, and that will save him a good deal and the country a little, Raising Holstein Cattle.The Dutch system of feeding and rearing Holstein-Friesian cattle is stm- ty itself.The calves are given whole milk until about five weeks old, when the ration is gradually changed to skim milk and grain.The grain cooked or steamed and fed with the t first and later ts fed dry imme- before the milk Is given.When is avaliable it forms the entire for heifers, and during winter Ë 2ère or tions growing.Bulls are fed in the til they are a year old, ÉUTREE Ë Hi fit are only sufficient to keep i pErie {HL lol separated.Never keep milk over from one milking to another, as it has to be cooled and then warmed again befere separating, and this deteriorates the quality of the cream.Never mix the hot cream with the cold.Do not mix until both are of the same temperature.Cool your cream after separating to at least 60 degrees.In cool weather, of course, this is easy.In the hot menths set your cream can in a tub partly full of cold water while separating.After finishing wrap double barley sacks around the can, wet them thoroughly and set in a draft.Pour cold water on the sacks once or twice.Never cover a cream can with a tight id.Use a clean damp cloth or fine screen Don\u2019t keep cream too long.Forty-eight hours is long enough.Separate a high grade of cream, say 35 to 40 per cent.This keeps better, makes better butter and leaves you more skim milk, To sum up, says & writer in Kim- ball's Dairy Farmer, be clean, separate a heavy grade of cream, never mix the warm with the cold, keep your cream cool and well aired, and your cream- eryman will bless you.Watering the Dairy Cow Something that 1s often neglected in the dairy stable is regular watering.We water horses three times a day whether they are doing anything or not, but tbe cows are watered only once à day, and sometimes a day is skipped.A cow giving any considerable quantity of milk drinks T5 to 125 pounds of water daily.It is impossible for her to take all that at one thine, and it is not possible for her to give the maximum amouat of milk unless she has that amount of water, as water constitutes 87 per cent of the milk produced.[_ surrer axo mix If a tub or jar of butter is to stand down cellar any length of time without sealing, cover the top with a thick layer of sait to keep out the air.When to Skim.As soon as the least degree of acidity can be detected milk should be skimmed, as the cream will all have been precipitated when that stage is reached.Cream requires frequent stirring if even ripening is to be secured.It should be smooth and velvety and pleasantly (not decidedly) acid to the taste and is then ready for the churn.Much of the success of the butter- maker depends on the proper ripening of the cream.Working the Butter, The firmness of butter must be taken into account in determining how long to work it.Tsually the firmer the butter the more working it will stand.The Covered Milk Pail.Milk palls are a source of trouble when not properly treated.There are a great many kinds of palls on\u2019 the market designed to ald the dalryman in his warfare against germs.One of the most improved pails that are used in sanitary dairies is the covered pall having a layer of absorbent cotton between two layers of fine wire gauze, through which tbe milk must pass be fore it enters the pall.The Flavor of Butter.As the flavor of butter depends prin- .cipaliy upon the proper ripening of the \u2018 cream and upon the absence of bac- ' teria the washing of

Eventually the elusive Arthur Albert was tracked to Marden; but was not discovered.However, a butcher who knew him offered to tell him, when he saw him next, that a coroper\u2019s jury had pronounced him dead, and so it came about that the other night Arthur Albert Steer presented himself once more at the familiar portals of a Bick- ley public-house\u2014and the apparition nearly gave the company apoplexy.Now he is at the house of his eldest son in Cannon rond\u2014a sad and apologetic man.The police were informed at once of this remarkable reappearance of the \u201cdead,\u201d and the facts are to be laid before the coroner.Meanwhile, no one has the faintest idea who the man who was buried really is.Elephants\u2019 Terrible Revenge.The following exciting episode translated from a native paper \u201cMambhum\u201d\u2019 for the \u201cAmrita Dazar Patrira,\u201d Calcutta, from which the extract is taken\u2014*In Agrahayan last, a khera of the villaze Dalma, Pargana Barahabhum, having gone to his paddy field to inspect it, found a herd of elephants destroying his crop.Naturally he got enraged, and began to shoot arrows at the animals from is behind a neighboring tree, which resulted in the death of a young ele phant.No sooner did he notice this than the khera ran away.and took .shelter in his cottage near by.Maddened at the death of the young elephant, the animals made a furious dash at the cottage, and surrounded and razed it to the ground.The khera, however, somehow or other, escaped with his life, climbed up a peepul tree, and took shelter on its : topmost bough.Failing in their attempt, the animals roared in anger, and m another dash with aggravated fury toward the tree and surrounded it.Their strength was increased by a fresh contingent which responded to their roar.The revengeful elephants | had the sagacity to fetch water in ! their trunks from a neighboring bund, sprinkled it around the foot of the tree 50 as to loosdn its hold in the ground, and ultimately succeeded in ' uprooting it and a ng themselves in the blood of the unfortunate man.\u201d The traditions connected with the historical residences of the British are many and

cancer Sir William Church said that the probabilities of dying from cancer were to-day ome in twelve for all men above the age of 35, and one in eight for women above 35, as contrasted with one in twenty-one for men and one in twelve for women twenty years ago.It was still impossible, however, to state whether the approximation of the figures represented a real increase of the disease or not.Referring to alleged cures for cancer, he stated that no curative value could be attached to any of those which had been tested.Particular attention had been given to tsypsin, but it was without any effect on the growth or development of tumors.In conclusion, Sir William alluded to the unremitting attention with which Dr.Bashford, the general superintendent, and his assistants, Drs.Murray and Haaland, and Mr.Bowen, had carried on the work of the research, and the assistance they had received from man and Hake in examining the gastric secretions of mice., .The Prince of Wales in his presidential speech referred to the handsome gift to the fund of £40,000 from Mr.Bischoffsheim, a vice-president, and his wife, in celebration of their golden wedding.He added that though many new facts had been ascertained as to the disease, they did not as yet justify hopes of a new treatment.AUSTRALIA'S FUTURE.Governor-General of Commonwealth Speaks.Lord Northcote, in opening the Federal

an agricultural standpoint.In about thirty townships possibly two-thirds of the land is splendid, but quite impossible for the settler to open up or with from an individual standpoint.\u201cThe late Government located many veterans on these lands, thus making it harder still for an actual settler; that, of course, cannot be remedied now, bat Hon.F.Cochrane has made it possible for them to obtain a_ dead which may lead to rome of these lands being sold to actual settlers.\u201cWhat is wanted now is about $100,000 judiciously expended on leading roads by a competent Government engineer, about $50,000 expended on a carefully-thought-out drainage system and then the ordinary grants in co-operation with the municipal councils for a few years.Censures the C.N.R.\u201cThe Canadian Northern have utterly failed to give this locality anything like reasonable service.\u201cThere is much valuable timber here, which is wanted in the western market, but the people here are afraid to make contracts as they know that they cannot depend on getting cars to deliver, and the poor settler, who could make a good living by: taking out timber, is actually suffering.In fact, the neglect and utter disregard of the C.N.R.in this section is criminal negligence in some cases as indirectly as your crossings in Toronto are.\"The postal facilities are bad.There is no mail-car on this line and a

Ideal Agricuitural Country.Æhere has just been compléted in the Province of Saskatchewan a series of Farmers\u2019 Institute meeting, The province was divided into two series, for each of which a delegation of two speakers was provided.The 8 were Mr.M.MacRae, B.SA., Mr.Duncan Anderson, of Or- illia, for the Live Stock branch, and Mr.T.N.\u2018Willing, inspector of wceds in Saskatchewan, and Mr.A.P.Ket- chen, deputy commissioner of agricul- tare for that province.Owing to the lateness of the meet ings the earlier ones were poorly.at tended, as most of the farmers had not.finished seeding, but during the latter halt of the period the icet- i were exceedingly wel] attended.essrs.Anderson and* MacRae report that although growth was very slow in commencing that it has made such rapid progress since the summer weather and the rains have come that vegetation is very little behind what it was at the same period last year, These gentlemen report that the live Boek, particularly in the cast ern part of e province, have come through the winter in excellent condition.The farmers were supplied with an abundance of hay and oat straw, with which they were ablc to bring through their stock in really fine condition.| Mr.Anderson is enthustastic with regard to the portion of the country which he visited north of the Sus- katchewan.The land is rolling and much better adapted to mixed farming than wheat growing.He censid ers that there is a wide field for the milking Shorthorn.While beef cattle are needed they will be much mom valuable to the farmers if they ar able to produce a good quantity ot milk, Cream gathering creamcrics are springing up and these will ba able to e care of a large quantity of milk from dual purpose cows.lrom the class of settlers in a large nor tion of the country and the phys- cal features of the land, it woul! appear that in a very few years them would be a very extensive outpu\u2019 of butter, cheese and bacon.With this combination associated with wheat growing, the rolling sections of Sas: katchewan promise to become an idesl farmers country.Immigration Figures.Immigration from Great Britain 18 increasing, and immigration from the United

and Catholicism his religion, he has become the leader of the destinies of a great English- speaking nation, the larger part of whose people are Protestants.Cu re S C at a rrh before the Justice of

statesmanship has been broad, liberal, far-sighted; his patriotism and his love of liberty are manifest in every act and word.He loves and cherishes the British Empire, and glories in the part that Canada takes in it; but as a Power of great possibility, sharing with the United States the | golden future of the American continent, he demands of England and the world the recognition of Canada, not as a babe in the swaddling clothes of a colony, but as a full grown nation of virility and assured triumph.Tall, erect, with a handsome presence, clean-shaven face, clear, penetrating blue eyes, a
