It may here be added thut Mias Strickland, in her \u201cLives of the Seven Blehops** (p.368), went further than Macaulay.She wrote: \u201cAll the West was In an agony of rage and excitement.Ballads were made And are sung even now, of Cornish men knocking at London gates to enquire news ot Treiawney, whose head was considered to de In danger: \u2018And have they fixed the where and when And must Trelawney âle?Then thirty {thousand Cornish men Will know \u2018the reason why!\" Mr.Hawker.who dearly loved a Joke, must have been highly amused at the success of his imitative baliad.The Percy Society fell in to the same blunder as Scott and the others.In their volume, edited by J.H.Dixon In 1848, and entitled \u201cAncient Pesms, Ballade and Songs, of the Peasantry of England.\u201d the Trelaw- ney ballad was edited at p.92 with the following note: \u201cThis spirited BONE was written «dt the time of the committa) of Rishop Trelwney to the Tower In 1638 for hin defence of the Protestant religion.Iie was then Bishop of Bristol, but in the same year was made Bishop of Exeter, and in IN?was translated to \u2018Winohestes.ally since 168, and bes in print, except tu à work Again have laughed in his sleeve; and he allow ed the verses, a» they now appeer, In six stanzas of four lines each, to be printed in Chambers\u2019s \u201cBook of Days,\u201d where 1 find them In Vol.L, p.4.Finally, as regards Mr.Hawkers refer nce to \u201cHousehold Words,\u201d edited by Charles Dickena, the ballad may be found in Vol.VI, p.158 In an article entitled, \u201cThe Reason Why?\u2019 The mistake was explained and corrected on pp.233-4 of the same volume.Burely a short ballad never before in the whole history of the world made such a stir, and decelved so many people! It ta for this reason that I have deemed it of sufficient importance to write {ts history, not only for my correspondent, Mr.Reynolds, but for (he many thousand readers of the Star.A Quotation From \u201cPeter Bell.\u201d To the Editor of Notes and Quertes: 8lr\u2014 Where in Wordsworth (7) shall I find the following lines: \u201cA primrose, by the river's brim A yellow primrose was to And it was nothing more.\u201d I will feel gratefu! tf you will give me this Information some time when you have a few moments te spare.8incersly yours, Ste Famiie Street.\\ \u2014_\u2014 In 1519 Wiliam ordaworth published \u201cPeter Bell.A Tale,\u201d which be dedicated to his friend, Robert Southey.The poem was received by many with much ridicule.Wordsworth composed it \u201cunder the be- Uef that the Imagination does not require for its exercise, the intervention of supernatural agency, but that the faculty may be called forth as imrperiousiy, and for kindred results of pleasure, by fnci- dents, within the compass of poetic probability, fn the humblest departments of dally life.\u201d That he carried his theory too far is now generally admited, and the A.B.; three parts of \u201cPeter Bell\u201d are a convino- ing proof of the fact.Nevertheless.the poem contains some fine passages among many others which are undeniably puerile.\u201cPeter Bell\" was by trade a\u2019 Potter, that is to say, tn the dialect of the North, a hawker of earthenware.We are fot concerned here with the story of the Potter, but in order to fully understand the passage quoted by my corres- pondent, it may be as well to quote a few other lines.The 1ith stanza of Part I.is as follows: \u201cHe roved among the vales and streams, In the green wood and hollow dell: They were his dwellings night and day, But Nature ne'er could find the way Into the heart of Peter Bell.\u201d The next stansa reads thus: \u201cIn vain.through every changeful year Did Nature lead him as before; A primrose bv a river's brim, A yellow primrose was to him, And !t was nothing more.\u201d Two more stansas may be quoted to illustrate the comrse insensibility of Pet ets heart: \u201cIn vain, through water, earth and air, The soul of happy sound was spread, When Peter, on some April mor, Beneath the broom or budding thorn Made the warm earth his lazy bed.\u201cAt noon, when, by the forest's edge, He lay, beneath the branches high, The soft blue sky did mever melt, Into, his.\u2018heart; he never feild - The witchery of the soft blue sky!\u201d These verses will throw light on the three lines quoted by A.B.A Complex Sentences To the Editor of Notes and Queries: Sir.\u2014YF1I1 you please give me the grammatical position of the second line m the following couplet: \u201cLives of great men all We can make remind us, our lives sublime.\u201d By so doing you will greatly oblige.GRAMMARIAN, Montreal.\u2014\u2014 A simple sentence contains ome subject or nomfmative, and one finite verb or pred fcate, A complex sentence is made up of one principal subject and predicate, and contains two or more finite verbs, The part that contains the principal subject and predicate ta called the principal sentence; the rest, the subordinate sentence or sentences.Subordinate sentences are of three kinds; the noun sentence, the adjective sentence, and the adverbial sentence.\u2018The noun sentence (with which we are at present concerned), is one that occu- bles the place, and follows the construc tion of a noun.It may, therefore, be either the subject of the principal sentence.as in Macaulay's \u201cThat a historian should not record triffes is perfectly true,\u201d or it may be the object that completes the predicate as in Byron's \u201cShe knew his heart was darkened with her shadow.\u201d Most noun sentences begin with \u201cthat,\u201d though It is sometimes omitted, as In the example from Longfellow, quoted by my correspondent, \u201cLives of great men all remind us\u201d (principal sentence), that \u2018we can make our lives sublime\" (subordinate nour sentence, which serves as object to complete the predicate of the principal sentence).Here is a complex senterice from Burké that contains two subordinate sentences: \u201cI thought ten thousand swords must have leaped from their scabbards to avenge sven a look that threatened her with insult.\u2014Editor of Notes and Queries.Three Questions.To thé Editor of Notes and Queries: 8ir\u2014I.Can you tell me if there te more than one English transiation of Francois.Coppee\u2019s \u201cBenediction\u201d and 31 so.which is the beat, and by w om Is it?As I know the whole poem ls too long for your columns, I would be very grateful if you gave m6 n few of the opening lines of the translation.II.I would also tke to obtain some information about the life and works of a person who writes under the name of \u201cChristian Reid.\u201d II, To what family did the Lady Seymour, who was Queen of Beauty at the Eglin- ton tournament in 1840, belong?Thanking you In advance for your answer.I am, yours troiy, STUDENT.Montreal.1 will insert answers (already written), to these three questions in the Star of December 10, \u2014Editor of Notes and Queries.Answer to Enigma Wanted.To the Editor of Notes and Queries: Bir\u2014Can any of your charade-solving correspondents find the answer to the enclosed enigma?It was given to me by a friend about 15 years ago, and after vainly guessing at it, I put tt away, and it has only just come again to light: Tm the sweetest of voices fn orchestra eard And yet in an orchestra never have been Tm & bird bf gay plemage;

and, though the affairs of his clients are perhaps ngqt fmatlets of history.they afford Mr.Way- man a theme for one of his most deHght- ful romances.The story, In the main, 's & study of the people of the time, rather of its most prominent personages, and It may be truthfuily said that the various types of character are well chosen, and cleverly depicted.A lover like Stir George Soaul belongs to every age, though fortunate indeed would be the nineteenth can- tury Julla who could win such a hehrt.The bully, the fop, .the vlie pandering tutor who lives on the vices.of his nottle Pupils, the insolent great lady, thé conft- dy physicien;

Islands.ost ôf these are important.and of considerable size.While other nations quarrelrd over petty mat- fers, England has built up the empire on vhich the sun never sets, far more populous and extensive than that of Rome.- THE COLONIES OF FRANCE.Next to the colonial! dom!nions of Great Britain come those of her neighbour and age-long rival, France.But there Is a big discrepancy between the two.A century and a half ago, the latter's forces were atronger in nearly every part of the world, and her colonial energies aparent- ly mors active.But to-day finde France with colonies Ifttle more than a {enth aa strong as those of her ancient rival.The French cnlonjal possessions are credited with about 1,350,000 square miles in area, and 36.810,000 of population.By far the most populous of these colonies is French Indo-China, which has 18.691 000 fnhabitants.Most extensive In area are the possessions on the west const of Africa.Algeria, however, would probably be regarded as the most important, owing to its close proximity to the mother country.It has over 4,000.00 of inhabitants, Madagascar has a population nearly as large.Outside of those mentioned, the Fremch colonies are numerous, but small and unimportant.There are ten of them in the Indian Ocean.and twelve in the South Beas.The establishments of India, which represent the remains of a French empire in India that precedes that of England, only have 283,000 inhabitants, In America, France has nine small colonies, possessing altogether only 377,341 1nhab- itants.Bt.Plerre-Miqdeion consists of two rocky isles off the coast of New- foundiand, having less than 6,000 people.It is interesting as representing the last remnant$ÿ of the once extensive French dominions in North America.In the West Indies there are the Islands of Martinique and Guadeloupe, with Its deperidencies, La Desirade, Les Saintes, and Petit Terre, Marie Galante, St.Bartholomew and St.Martin.Of these Martinique is the most important, its popuia- tion of 175,868 being about half that of all the French-American colonies.French Guiana occupies a considerable ares, but has only a trifling population.The third colonig! nation of the world is neither one of the great powers or sven one of the second-class nations of Europe; it is the comparatively insignificant country, Holland.This little state has colonies almost as Important as those of France.Their population 1s 22784406, or nearly eight times that of the mother country.Holland easily proves herself the most successful colonial power, only The \u201cGreater Empire Than Has Been.\u201d The extent and preponderance of the British Empire, which the new Imperial Penny Postage Stamp will illustrate.\u2014 Great Britain's Colonies contain three times as many inhabitants as the colonies of wil other mations.TY excepting England, And such she bas been for ut least 300 years.Only Holland's political weakness has prevented her possessions from being very much more extensive than they are to-day.She was first ut the Cape of Good Hope.fn Ceylon, in most of the East Indies, and on the coast of Guiana.From most of these positions she has only been driven by the power of England.After these three principal colonial powers, the next la Portugal, which, although only a fourth as populqus as Spain, has much more extensive colonies.These are sald to have a population of 14.213,000, and are mostly in Africa The single colony of Angola has the greater part of these people, bestdes which there are the (\u2018ape Verde Islands, St.Thomas and Prince Islands, Guinea and Fast Africa.In Asia there are Portuguese India, Macao, a city of China, and Telner.There are no colonies in America.UNITED STATES COLONIES.Spain, at the beginning of the recent war, ranked next to Portugal, fn the extent of her colonles.But by the acceptance of the demands of the American peace commissioners at Paris, on Monday, finds her deprived of some 10.000.000 of colonial subjects who have obeyed her rule, while in her pluce the United States steps forward as the world's fifth colonial power.It is not generally known that the United States many years ago actually founded and ruled a colony.but such is the case.She founded l.iberia in 1823, and continued a protectorate over it until 1847, at last acknowledging its independence In 1861.The colonial possessions of the United States will now comprise Cuba, Porto Rico, the Philippines, a pert of the La- drones, and Hawall.Robbed of the possessions which it has heen forced to surrender to the United States, Spain now has a number of small possessions in Africn, with a combined population of about 35.00.These aro Fernando Po, Ceuta, Annoboni, Corisco and Elobey.Neither the Canaries nor the Balearic Islands are properly to be regarded as colonies, being In all respects treated a8 parts of the mother country.Germany 1s the oaly remaining country having colonies of Importance.These are all of recent acquisition, and mostly result from the late European partition of Africa.In this Grand division, Toyo, Cameroons and German East, West and 4 South Africa, probably have together over 7.000,000 inhabitants.In the Pacific Ocean the empire has Emperor William Land, Rismarck Archipelago, the North Solomon Islands and the Marshall and Navodo 18/- ands.To these must be added the recent acquisition of Kiao-Chau in China.Ttaly's claim to rank as a colonial power ceased with the disastrous defeat of Italian arms in Abyssinia two years ago.Denmark has long held a few small col- onfes.They cover about 75,000 square miles, and have 177,184 inhabitants.These are compnsed of the Faroe Islands, Greenland, Iceland and St.Thomas, St.John and St.Crolx in the West Indies.The area given includes only the part of Greenland not covered by ice.Bweden alan rules one or two small islets in the West Indies.This completes the list of European colonizing powers strictly so called, although Russia really should be included in the roll.Her conquests {in Asia have always been followed by the planting of colonies, although since these were continuous with the mother country, they have generally been regarded as a part of the same.The days for planting colonies are now pretty nearly past, the most of the world being divided up.China, Turkey and -Persin are about the only considerable portions that are not yet %appropriated by Christendom.How soon, or whether at all.these will be dismembered yet remains a problem for the future.But whatever happens to the rest of the uncolo- nized world, John Bull {8 clearly ahead in the game.His holdings are twice as large and as populous as those of all the rest of the European nations, and he can be counted on to hold his own in any further partitioning of territory that there may be to be done.rer) LUCCHENDS TERRIBLE FATE.The Neues Wiener Tagblatt states that the dungeon in which Luccheni, the assaasin Elizabeth, is now confined , Ren- ita will pay for

what are the sentiments of a signaller toward an Admiral, and of a stoker toward the authorities who have designed his washing accommodation.1 overheard, in the darkness of beautiful nights, fragments of drama from the forward flats which it is my Ufe\u2019's regret that I can not make public; lectures on all manner of curious things delivered by the ship's jester, and totally unveraclous reports of conversation with superiors retailed by a delinquent marine.Fire and collision drill, general quarters and the like take on new meanings when they are transiated for you once by the head who orders them, and agaln by the tail who carries them out.When you have been shown lovingly over a tor pedo by an artificer skilled in the working of its tricky bowels, torpedoes have a meaning and a reality.for you to the end of your days.1 a ANOTHER CRUISE.Tt was the captain's coxswain \u2014 precise, fmmaculate and adequate as ever\u2014who met the returning guest at Devonport a twisted it thirteen Inches to starboard.Tho coMar was beached as soon as poasts ble, and the Admiral he said to us (this 1 #pt from the coxswain as we drove to North Corner by night through blue-jack- eted Devonport), \u201cCan you go round to Plymouth with your nose in that state?\u2019 \u201cLord love you, yes,\u201d sald We, or words te that effect, \u2018Very good,\u201d sald the Admire], \"then you go.Which we Mid at an average speed of alxteen knots through à head mea with a collision mat over our nose (\u2018same mat we used when we tied up the Thrasher, sir\u2019) and we ran her up to eighteen point, too, to.wee how the bulkhead would stand ft.The carpenter and the carpenter's mate (\u201cyes they're the same as last year, sir\u201d), set up to watch, but nothing happened.\"\u201cAn' now, we're under orders to go back and Join the fleet at Bantry, sir.\u201d \u201cWe've been crulsing all around England for the last two months.\u201d TWELVE MONTHS LATER.Once aboard the lugger, the past twelve months rolled up like a chart that one needs no longer.The \u2018commodious cof- fee-grinder\u201d welcomed me as a brother for by good luck no one had been chang: the same faces greeted me in the little wardroom, and we fell to chattering like children.The record of a year with the Channel fleet js not to be told in two hours, but I gathered a good deal ere 1 dropped into my well-remembered berth that joyous night.We departed at noon the next day, unhampered by signals.A liner leaves Plymouth in one style;

ours ought to have been content, for a kindly boy had precipitated a large quantity of paints In the storeroom; he utilized the delay at Devonport to touch her up outside, and the perfect weather at Bantry to paint her fnside.The only time he left her was to pull round her in a boat, and see how she looked from various points of view.Then I think he was eatisfled for nearly half a day.RASH INTEREST IN GUN PRACTICE.Over against Falmouth we found the sea sufficiently empty for some gun practice, and went to work at 2,600 yards on the little triangular canvas target, all, splintered and bespatched from past trials This year the three-pounders were using up some black powder ammunition, and with the wind behind us we were vil- lainously wrapped up in smoke.But for all that, the shots were very efficiently placed on gnd about the tiny mark.One four-juch \u2018 shrépnel burst, immediately above the thing, and the deck was pepper ed with tron from above.It looked like the cloud-veiled hand 6?n god (as they draw It tn the Dutch picture-books), dropping pebbles into a pond.The more one sees of big gun practice the less one likes it, but a big steam yacht of the Royal Yacht Squadron thought otherwise, steam ing down upon us of a sudden With all the rash interest of a boy In next doors fireworks., \u201cShe thinks the target is a derelist,\u201d said the bridge.\u2018She\u2019 coming for salvage.She'll be right in the middie of it fo a minute.\u201d : \u201cNo, she won't.Starboard bow Maxim there\u2014thirteen hundred yards!\" The little demon set up the \u201cirritating stammer\u201d that the barbette gun found so objectionable, and spattered up the blue all about the canvas, as a swizz)e-stick works up a cocktail.Our friend turned on her heel with immense promptitude, and scuttled to windward.INTERESTING TALES.Later on I heard some Interesting tales of craft\u2014excursion steamers for chofce\u2014 anchoring between a man-of-war and her target because the captain had heard that there would be gun practice, and his passengers, at a shilling a head, wished to see the fun.\u201cBut they didn\u2019t think,\u201d said my informant, \u2018that I was the man who'd have been hung, drawn and quartered if a life was lost.THey amchored slap behind the island I was firing at\u2014experimental firing at a dummy if you please\u2014six-inchers, twelve-pounders and Maxims all turned loose together.Slap behind the island they anchored .and they were angry when we told \u2018em to go away.\u201d Out of the strong-shouldered Atlantic swell-bluer than sapphires\u2014rose the double-fanged rock of the Fastnet.Woe were close enough to ses its steps and derricks and each wave as it shot thirty feet up the rocke\u2014the Fastnet in fair weather, It was like meeting policemen in evening dress.One never thinks of the Fastnet save as a blessed welcoming wink of light through storm and thick weather.BIG ATLANTIC ROLLERS.The Irish coast 15 a never-falling surprise to ths big Atlantic rollers.They trip and ground-you can see them check \u2014on the shallows;

but of late years it was found in practice that the so-called southern route did not accomplish much that it had been designed to do with the result that further negotiations were entered upon this year, and the track regulations adopted, which wece now In operation.These divided the year into four periods, for which three westbound and three east und tracks were provided, designed to keep the vessals going in opposite directions à safe distance apart, the most southern of these tracks being in operation during what was considered the beight of the ice neason.He thought they would ee with him that the frequent sightings of ice and the prevalence of fog this year on the northern track, to which the vessels returned on the 15th of July, fully justified a reconsideratinn of the dates for making the changes in the different routes.He would strongly urge that if the track Jules could be modified by returning to the former princples of having only two tracks\u2014that was to say, a northern and a southern\u2014and by dividing the year into two periods instead of four, as at present, a very material advantage would be gained, as by this means the wherabouta of the Atlantic liners at given scusons of the year could be more readily and accurately, and therefore more wi ely, known to the various interests to which that information might be of values the remit of the conference, two outward and two homeward tracks ware sgreedu upon, to be followed respectively uring two distinet periods of the vear, vis, tbe ice and fog season, and the season when these are not u ana The Coming of the Doukhobors.The Locality for Their Settlement in the Northwest Has Been Selected\u2014Prince Hilikoff Tells of His Connection With Them.00 006060000000 VS STVVVVVVSQO9OOO v efeefrofentan2en 2 Hé Jui forfoefeie forfefecfofeeinfecfufodutnd rbd o ce - 0 I ree RENEE 3 Serer EERE) s Torte.Vastant af.tte ted] tete deeded elo de fledged beled tee ef .+, ojo », etes D effete fed 4 \u201cfrite PRINCE HILIKOFF, Sketched by a Star Artist.Feild dled let shebtrilbedeim imine denied ieedeiebed defedl te odes Roffel dufeiofutenjofulefel strength, and regularity llke a steam-en- eine, I never sow anything to equal a 1nlddle-aged woman, who.with garments up tn her thighs, was kneading the earth for brick-making by treading Ît And on every face was a brightness and cheerfulness that amazed me when I considered thelr story \u2018and circumstances.\u201cAt Kuklle the houses were all bulfit, and the roofs were being finished by a young giant who was pitching spadefuls of earth from the ground level to the tops of tne one-storied houses.The roofs are cof timber and reeds covered with thick ;

Of the Klondike and ita golden wealth, everybody has heard, and the names of Rossland and British Columbia in connection with mining enterprise are familiar to the general public.Yet these much-

an unfashionable district as to get a woman to wear an old-fashioned bonnet.Such ia the case with the mines of Nova Scotla\u2014they are unfashionable at the moment, and consequently the tavestor holds aloof.However, fashlons in mines l!ke those In bonnets recur, and it may not be very long before there is a change in favour of Nova Scotia.In the Province of Nova Scotia gold was known to be existing as far back as 1850.and yet but lMttle is heard of g1id mines and thelr yields.The only reason to account for the neglect of thls industry is the lack of capital to work the properties In an efficient manner.« The Nova Scotlan mines are of à SOMEWHAT LOW GRADE character, but this Is no reason wny they should not pay to work if properly equip ed and efficlentiy managed.Some of the best paying mines in the world are low grade propositions ; as for instance the .Alaska Treadwe!l mine, where the ore runs only from 2 dwt.to 3 dwt.iper ton.This ls -much lower than the average grade of

dollar that has been away in dividends.No reserve has been put aside for development, and when ths time arrives for thi to be done, funds are wanting and the mine is closed down, although the

table it will also be noticed that out Of the 47 mines enumerated, but seven are equipped with batteries of & stamps or over, vie.: The Dufferin, with 6 ; the Richardso 40 ; the Egerton, with 30; the Brodkfield, 30: and three others\u2014the Bluenose, the Tudor and Essex, with 20 each.Of these seven mines at the present time oniy one, the Brooktteld, ls equipped with concentration and chior- {nation plant, and it will be well to notice what particularly excellent results ve beon obtained.Whereas the average yield ts but 8,34 dwts, or dwts.8.78 (which ever figures are taken) there is in the case of this property a yield df over dwt.17 per ton This ought to ord incontestable proof of the value of these mines when worked systematically and on à scientific and business basis.The Dufferin mine is now being equipped with all the plant necessary to it among the best furnished mines in Can- and with these two concerns showing the way, it should not be long before others follow in the same path, and the Investing public may then turn Its atten- tlon to the gold flelds of Nova Beotia as a source from which steady and reliable dividends may be drawn.The gold bearing area of the province consists of something over 3,000 sq.miles.and yet at the present not more than 5 square miles are being worked.but 59 were running.One matter there is tn connection the mining laws to which it would the attention of the Government should be drawn, and that ts the p go eave them undeveloped on the payment of 3c pear acre annum.This militates against the development of the country.It should be insisted that work be done an some of the areas taken up, failing which, the lease should be forfeited.At present a man taking up a few areas to work, has the areas immediately adjoining his me- lection taken up by s tors, and should his small property turn out to be a good one, the speculators, by the investment of a few dollars, and the industry of a poor man, have obtained what is presumably u valuable property, for which a high price is immediately asked.The repeal of this law would do much to induce prospectors and others to turn thelr attention to Nova Scotia.A clause making the holding of the lease dependent on a certaln amount of work being done annually would prevent the large number of areas being held as thty are at the present time, stmply for speculative pur- po ses.The value of these fields is incontestable, and although it is unlikely that they will ever be Invested with the romantic halo which is at present surrounding the Kion- dike, it may be safe to predict that the majority of the mines now opened, and to be open Nova Beotia will, if worked on a sound mining and commercial basis, return dividends to the investors equal to if not in excess of those earned by any other industry in the Dominion.B.MO DAWN THE women\u2014 flesh and blood, they are such shad illust or b owy, illusive , but | ass relief and time fo) Ew Ce + se 4 \"My vife Hage

Piccadilly and the Night Clubs.®* 6 O a LONDON, November 15.\u2014 The gay and demonstrative Puarislan long ago gave It out as his opinion that the Englishman takes his pleasures radly, and from his point of view the Frenchman is probably quite right.There is no parallel to the galety of the Paris boulevards in London.The cabarets of the Montmartre have not thelr duplicates on this side of the channel, and the cafes chantants of the French capital ure the scenes of a bols- terous an.unrestrained gulety that is not to be witnessed in the music halls of the modern Babylon.Yet London is not without its light side, and even though Londoners don't make 80 much fuss about it as the festive Gaul, perhaps they take thelr pleasures not so very sadly after all.That is a matter of opinlon.For my part, ! am inclined to think they have a pretty goud time, all round, and can afford to bear up \"with considerable complacency under the Frenchman's criticism.Of course, the time to \u2018see\u2019 London\u2014 that ls, the gay and festive side of Lon- don\u2014ls at night.when the flickering gus Jet has succeeded the soberer rays of the king of day, and the crowds on the street have moved, up from Leadenhall , and Cheapside to Piccadilly and the Strand.The centre of galery vaties with the hour.From etght o'clnck till eleven, the attraction 18 THE MUSIC HALLS, end the Empire, Alhambra, Calety.Pavillon, Tivoli, Palace and London, divide among them the pleasure-seeking crowds.About eleven, as the programmes at the theatres are nearing to a close, the movement begins to the restaurants ,and by half past eleven, the latter present a scene of animation wonderful to behold.Walters innumerable flit about from table to table with an alacgity which only the expectation of tips commensurate with thelr desputch and skill could engender ; corks pop from botties filed with the sparkling and exh!larating champagne: up petizing odours rise from hot dishes, min- ging with the fumes of countless cigars and cigarettes, and throughout Ji ali the tireless flow of conversation and ripple of laughter go on uninterrupted, and ever increasing in volume.Meanwhile, without, Piccadilly Is assuming the nocturnal habiliments by which It is known the world over.The sidewalks are thronged with as varied and interesting a crowd as the sludent of human nature could well wish to see.But the student will study human nature under difficusries, in Piccadilly, at half-past eleven at night! THE NIGHT CLUBS.At midnight the restaurants close, and once more the scene of galety shifts.Tt fs now the turn of the night clubs, of which there are some dozen or more in London at sll times, though they change their locale, from place to place.and spring up and live a sort of mushroom growth, flourishing for a day - or should we may a night?-and then dying, perhaps, forever, perhaps to be born again in some other zpot.\u2018They are quite exclusive affairs in their way, these night clubs, ané membership at a considerable weekly fec 15 necessary for admission.But to return to the music halls, tor | they are a distinct feature of London.quite dissimilar to anything in America.London music halis may be seen from two points of view, and the impression carried away by the casual visitor is according to which of these he adopts.If you go just to mee the performance, and take a seat in the pit or in the five shilling rows in the balcony, you come away wondering what in the world Mrs.Ormis- ton Chant and her associate \u2018pruritans\u2019 (as they call them here), could have seen to make m= fuss about.Certainly there was nothing out of the way that vou could see and except for the more elaborate and exquisitely handsome interior.the whole tiing reminded you very much of YOUR OWN SOHMER PARK in Montreal.But it was not agninst the pertorm- | ances at the music halls that Mrs.Chant railed.but against the promenades, and | ff instead of sitting quietly in your seat ! with your eyes fixed upon the stage, you | permit yourself the varintion of walking around through the aicles and rooms at | the back and sides of the rows of wests, | both upstalrs and down, you soon discover that there is more to see than the ! performance.There are bars, | large and small, in recrsses in the walls all around, (and not so far apart but what even His Excellency the Governor of South Carolina would be satisfied).where fair dispensers of drinks (for the barmall, you know, is another English institution), are kept busy filling the orders which pour in upan them from the thirsty prom- enaders.In the rooms, which are merely contin- uatinna andl widenings of the promenades, are tables, and éhairs and nofas, and here : you can sit or Ibunge about, drink and | chatter to the women.And beautiful wo- } men they are, ton, these frequenters of the music halls.= | Occasionally, of course.the performances on the stage are also not without an element of suggestiveness, but this only creeps In now and then, and in parts, and is by.no meahs characteristic of the general run of music hall productions.A detrei bE RUN-OFF IN NEWFOUNDLAND.| Two Men Killed on the Island's Rail- way-\u2014Remarkable December Weather.(Special cable to \u2018the Star.)

crowd of present day revellers and the old beggar women, and many a sixpence finds fis way Into the suppliant\u2019's palm, which but for the surroundings might be pieaded for in vain.Many of the street beggars attempt produce some fort of musical accompaniment to their not specially musical\u2019 appeals for charity, and all varieties of cheap which emit the most plaintive sounds you ever heard, furnish the means.Occacsionally, the vocal talents of the mendicant are called into re quisition to supplement the efforts of the instrument.One old beggar woman, the other evening us I was

HEALTH.TO One of the gravest dangers to this country is the widespreed use of alvphol, morphine, opium, and other deadly poisons in the liquid medicines sold to sick women.Alechol, whiskey, or some other injurious acid is necessary to keep the medicines from aouring.Morphine and opium are used to deaden pain quickly, but the patient is worse off than ever when the ef fects wear away.Habitual use of these hi.quid medicines is causing thousands of women to become drunkards snd slaves of opium.It is duffieuk to undersiand why the law does not step in aud stop these dreadful pructives., All women and girls should take warning.There 18 no reason or no necessity for taking dangerous hquid med.cines and paying ¥1 a bottle fur them.kor 30¢ you can buy a box of the celcbrated Dr.Coderre's Red Puls for Vale und Weak Women.Although the price is onlv half as much as liquid medicines cost, the Hed Pills: are vastly better, and perfectly sufe.There is no alcohol in them.Neither morphine Por opium is used in compounding them.There 18 not a single wngredient that can possibly injure the must delicate woman or girl.Dr.Coderre's Red Pills do not set up false stimulation.They do not deaden pain temporarily.Whar they do is cure.They are a distinctly French medicine.\u2018they reach decp and overcome all the d:sagree- able, torturing diseases called ° female troubles.\u201d They help the girl through the dangerous time of puberty, and as she blossoms into full womanhood the is not beset, by the diseases 80 common to her sex.Dr.Coderrc\u2019s Hed Pills fit the girl to become a bride, and the bride to become the mother of vigorous, atrong children without suffering during the time of pregnancy.They rob childbirth of ite dangers and pains.They MAKE women well when young, and KEEP them wel till they die.l'hey are a safe, reliable, almost infallib'e cure for lucorrhoea, falling or ulceration of the\u2019womb, nervousness, the blues, pale ness, weakness, thin blood, poor appetite, headache, backache and palpitation of the heart.They establish regularity of the menses, and permanently correct scanty, profuse or irregular petiods.The reader way doubt these things, but they are true just the same.Over half + million French women have proved the true.Nearly as many Ameriean women are to-day enjoying wigorous womanly health because of these remarkable pills.Coderre'e Red lille, beside being such a safe, reliable and low-priced med:- cine, are of the greatest convenience ta girls and women.The pills cun be carried anywhere \u2014 to work, or on visits to friends, or when tiuveiling.They can be swallowed in the public street, if necessary, without any one knowinz Ÿt.You cannot do this with liquid medicines, even though they were good, which is not the case, as the alcohol and morphme makes them dangerous.Dr.Coderre\u2019s Red Pills are French in every sense of the word.They were or- iginuted in Paris by the far famed Dr.Co- erre.They are made of French ingredi- euts, and compounde! hy French chemists.They are prescribed and endorsed by sonie of the foremost scientists of the French Republic.Below are a few quotations chosen from many similar ones.Messrs.Drs.Mérat and de Lens, mnem- bers of the Academy of Medicine, Paris, say: *\u201c This preparation merits to recommended by physicians.All our ex- pemences with these pil's have resulted in prompt and permanent cures.\u201d Dr.Bouchardat, Professcr of the Faculty | of Medicine, Paris, Member of the Acadery of Medicine, adds: \u201cJt is the simplest, the best and most e onnmical preparation.\u201d The Soeurs de la Providence siys: \u201cThey add colouring matter to the Llood, give strength and a fine complexion.It is the best preparation\u2019 we are using.\u201d .The Editor of the Journal des Connaissance Medicales writes: \u201cNo preparation can be put in the balance against Dr.C'or- derre's Red Pills for Pale and Weak Women.\u201d Besides these eminent endorsements of Frenchmen, tl American Journal of Health, which is the recognized health authority in this country, also speaks in the highest praise of the Red Pills.R.S.Wilson, M.D., the editor, says of the rem- y: \u201cIt is really a specific for diseases of women arising from female w ess.Jt bas built up a record of cures in difficult cases that has excited wonder.It is, in fact, one of those scientific medicines which cannot be ignored.Dt.Coderre\u2019s Red Pills deserve all the sucesss and public patronage that a genuine and proved specitic can enjoy.\u201d .In all the history of; medical science,\u2019 no preparation for women has had such high endorsement as this from the medical profession from two continents.This is because Dr.Coderre\u2019s led Pills REALLY cure; because they are so wafe for delicate invalids and girls; because they are low enough in price to be within the reach of everybody; because the form of piils is s0 convenient and so easy to administer; because pale and weak women can cure themselves at home without gging to the enormous expense of employing doctors who exact big fees; ause cures can be effected without submitting to obnoxious lccal examinations and treatment.The 'Franco-Awmerican Chemical (vo.wbich controls Dr.Coderre\u2019s Red Pills in Ameri also maintains a corps of celebrated.French specialists in the treatment of diseases of gris and women.All who suffer from any \u201cfemale trouble,\u201d no matter of how long standing, are invited to ite these specialists for advice by mail.No charge is m de for this advice.It is given free to

Hands Against McCarthyism.(Special to the Star.) RARRIE, December 3.\u2014The death of Dalton McCarthy, M.P., is the œuse of the byeclection in whose throes the electors of North Simcoe are hotly engaged.In the general electuons of 1885 the late member was clected by a majority greater than 1,000, a victory that was due to the three cornered contest, and to the personal magnetism of Mr.McCarthy.Without doubt the spint of independence in North Bimcoe had reached its zenith on the night of that election, and mince that time Met'ar- thyites have gradually been going back to party lines, having been influenced to that course by the very great doubt that arose in their minds in the first place as to whe ther Mel'arthyisam gave any colour to the legislature at (Xtawa, or not, and in the next plan whether the issues for which Dal JAMES MARTIN, Käberal Candidate in Worth Simcoe.bom McCarthy ! ht had not been settled Leurier\u2019s rat Parliament of 1896.That issues had been finally demit with st that borne absence es House and

having finished bie bach inthe Manitoba school \u2018qu wm position and contemplated either gi up politics, returni to the Conservative HA, or allying him: to the Laurier party.Strangely enough, then was it that his death oocurred during à critical and ably transition period in not only bia own ical intentions for the future, but also n those of many electors who bad followed hitg faithfully not so much the policy he championed, the éwpfidence his he honesty in dy, - is tragic removal from the political arena, therefore, left his followers to 5 whither they desired, and had they been left e would have dispersed to either of the two political parties.Such a fumon of elements was not to be pe ted, \u201c ever, by men who had axes to grind.Lelghton McCarthy, of Toronto nephew of the late member and son of Dr.Mei arthy, of this town, was chosen by a faction an the standard bearer of independence in North Simcoe though it can scarcely be ived what his platform is.In fact 8 platform as yet bas not been announced to the public; his strongest claim to office seems to be his patronymic.McCarthy belongs to a law firm in Tor onto, whose members are credited by the Jaberals of North Simcoe of being able to \u201cwork\u201d the Ottawa machine, and have thus secured for leighton the support of the lamentable | | | i to bringing out a Liberal candidate : mightily in the complexion

electors could not erack.He is merely the nephew of the late member whose mantle had certainly not fullea on the young candidate: if the latter had put it on, he would find it to be a political

by unanimous vote a resolution fasonring the bringing out of a candidate, but through deference to their political fathers decided Lo give the latter one more chance, to huld good fur two weeks, (to rail a convention in the regular wav.\u201cThe Hxevu- the, seeing the folly of opposing such a de- terutination, called the desired meeting ur November 25.The known onprsit.on to toa: in all the local nomumations that question waa fought out.The \u201ccandidate\u201d men won the day, for at Stayner the motion to put a candidate in the field was carried by a majority of 3 to 1.The work of the Dominion Cluvernment was seen in one of its phases at the convention, in the presence of James McMulln, M.P.for North Wellington, and Alexander Smith, the Liberal organizer, who had rome to oppose the nomination of à candidate THE DISTURBANCE AND I* \"PRY.VAL which Mr, McMullen's remarks recrivet gave Mr, Smith excellent excuse for keep.ig his seat.He thus escaped a volley in waiting for him should he attempt to die tate a course for the meeting.The presence of these men wax regarded as un- Warranted interference in @ matter that North Simcoe Libarals are quite able to settle for themselves.The letters read from Laurier, Cartwright and Mulock received aunilar unpopular hearings.It wok but a short time to agree in the Hvimnation of James Martin of Sumerdale township and several enthusiastic s h- es were given promising him united and hearty support.Mr.Martin, who is a comparatively young man, 18 a farmer near the village of New Lowell, and has been Counciller, deputy-reeve and reeve of

sccuning a large grant for harbour improve ments in that town.- A PECULIAR SITUATION.Since the death of D'Alton McCarthy, l'onservatives have been play a waiting anme.It was their hope that the bye-elec- tion would be the opportunity for a union of the two divisions of the party.In fact, Conservatives were a unit in the provincial general elections on March\u2019 1st Just when the Conservative cemdidate, Mr.A.E.Thompson wis eledted to Centre Simcoe, and 1L was hoped that the union then formed would not be again brokea.The nomination of Teighton McCarthy dashed into pieces that hope.The straight-liners liewever studied their interests by not antagonizing Leighton's supporters for the fcllowing good reasons, viz: In provincial politics a protest had been entered against the Conservative member and as long as that was pending Conservatives could not afford to cross swords with MecCarthyites in a Dominion contest.In the event of a previncial bye-elcction their votes would ail be required to secure the election of the (Conservative candidate.The protest was hanging fire until last Saturday when it was dismissed in Toronto, the final move the matter having delayed until after the Reform Convention at Staynor.he protest wax dropped bv Liberals in the belief that this very considerate move weuld attract to Mr.Martin many Conservative votes and probably prevent the nomination of a Conservative.Subsequent events have proved that that belief was well founded.\u201d Conservatives are just as desirous of defeating McCanthy as Re fermers are, and both are credited with the opmion that the defeat of Leighton Me- Carthy means the funeral of McCarthyism in palitics.At a Conservative convention held in Slayner it was decided not to put a candidate in the field and while they passed a resolution giving the members of the party libert§ to vote for either Me- Carthy or Martin, they in the same revo hetion declared that the planks which made up D'Alton McCarthy's platform are row dead issues.This is the clandestine manner of turning the Cemservative vote over to the Tiheral enndidnte.It is not thought the Independent tan- didate will lave any, chance against the combine infuence and votes of the two parties, and in addition to this a ali Catholic vate; for it is known that D'Alton MeCarthy's fight on the school gnestion estranged that vote from him.Bnth

Has Basa Increased by Technical Instruo- tion._ LONDON, December 2\u2014In an interesting report just issued by \u2018the Foreign (f- fice, Mr.Powell, British OConaul at Stein, has à paper on commercial education in Germany, in which some original ideas are rel forth.lie rave thet it is Quite true that the ficrmans are wide swale to the rocemmty of commercial educati in competition with other trading nations, and a Is be that the study of modern languages all the \"nis over country.In Great Bri ieved that the great success of German industry more 1873, and especially in the iust de cade due to she superiority of commercial and technical education in Germany but this, be says is not tbe view of those best able to judge by close ac- vsintance with the facts on the spot.oy attribute it to the high state of gem- eral education tbat Germany has enjoyed for many years rather than to the superior ity of commercial education.Mr.Powell thinks that the commercial success of the Germans 1s the cause rather than the effect of the wonderful strides lately made by them in commercial education for the growth of their trade has aroused imperial municipal, educational authorities to a sense of the value of this kind of training for a commercial people.He says commercial schools in Germany scarcely exist ed prior to the Philadelphia Exhibition of 1876, when Prof.Rouleaux made à famous report on the German exhibits under the title \u201cCheap and Nasty.\u201d It is true that after the war of 1870 merchants and others established commercial schools in some of the cities, and that the government direct- eJ their attention to the subject; but ver little was achieved before 1576.Indee «ven mow there is not any organued scheme for such education in Germany ,although the government may be expected to make it a state question before many years are past.In 1891 there were m the German empire 185 commercial schools, of which 65 had been started since 1885: of these 77 were in Prussis and the rest in other states, chiefly Baxony and Baden.Of these only one was founded by the imperad government, by town councils, [1 by chambers of commerce, 20 by merchants guilds, and the rest by associations or pri vate munificence.\u2014\u20140irme-\u2014e\u2014 DEATHS REPORTED and At the Star Office To-day.NEW YORK-Mrs.Nellie Irene Seymour, wife of John

denial to the rtory that the killing of wounded Dervishes was an organized Incident of the late campaign In the Boudan.It ia wholly untrue, he declared, that companies were told off even to search for the wounded enemy.much Jess to kill them.It le not denied that wounded Arabs \u2018were left to die on the field in thousands,\u201d but that could not be helped, since British and Egyptian surgeons were fully occupied in attending to their own wounded.The Sirdar said that on entering Omdurman he lssued an order calling upon the people to go out and bring in thelr wounded, but only those who had relatives responded to the appeal.Ruch wounded as could be brought in recelved every possible attention, and, as a matter of fact, between six and seven thousand are now under treatment in the

country of certain little fishes which leave the rivers for a time and then return to them.The Malays call it by à name which signifies the \u2018\u2018tree-climber,\u201d\u201d but while there la no rea- sun to doubt the truth of Daldort's story that fn 1791 he touk one from a moist cavity in the stem of a palm tree growing near a lake, there hus hitherto been no confirmation of (t by any Eutopean.In this fish the hinder border of the Blil-cuver is armed with apinea, the neutral fins are spinous, so as to aftord sume support, and it uses ita pectoral fins to oar itself along through the grass and reeds.There 1s no doubt that it can travel for a con- sicerable distance un land, or that (t can live fur sume time out of tire water; but that is no reason for accepting the mediaeval Arab story that it climbed palm trees to drink the milk of the nuts.This fish und its allies have a supplementary gill-like organ on each side above the true gills, which enables them to exiat for a considerable time out of the water.Alexa complex arrangement, serving a like purpose, is found in the Indian fish, pnpular- ly known as \u2018'serpent heads.\u201d which can travel & good Way over

Holden was found at the minion Hotel, Belleville, as Mackie, sr., anid.Th wintry mght's drive brought Robert Mackie, \u201cWhale\u201d Mackie and Holden together, Holden remembered driving into Hunter's.shed.The different detan of the story were told.low could Halden kmow 3t ny.iesa he was there?The Indiana identified Holden and Mackie.What more wee wanted?\u201cM haie\u201d Mackie confirmed He whole story.Was it not manifest that there was anmething to coneral, that there were two mea he waa, driving out with an evil purpose.If the Jury wae satisfied he was on that trip they could go three.quarters way to convicting lim here.Was Îhere more agminat Mackie?How did Pare know about the hold-up in the bank?he testimony of Margaret French was mentioned in this connection.The Durrand letter was impossible of invention by Margaret French.Durran odmitted receiving {wo or three anonymour letters.\u2018Mani t featly Durrand received that letter,\u201d said Mr.Osler.The marks on the face and the frozen tous were spoken of.\u201cHave you y doubt that journey was made\u201d naked Te Onler, ; and then he paused for this to settle into the minds of the jurors, \u201cWhat about the maney in the Noogahed teatified by Mins Sarah French?These you have and more, for by the month of at Jeadt five care: 9 bave bee shown that Robeèt Mackie\u2019 was associated d Hokien in Ta, Pure ne speaker in slow deliberate tones.clured that whether Ponton gat a dollar ur not he was equally guilty with the others, if he was au accessory evidence of Pare t.em, hoping for leniemey if they told the 1 truth.Such truth was not for acquittal or convertion.The Court would judge that.id these men tell a story that woul] fit an?The jury could conviet on their evi dence; ordinarily thev ought not tw von- voot.between the two stories, some serious dis.crepuncies, ; : they would differ in many details.Even the et the miracle in the other.1 the stories were claimed as an evidence of \u201cdid not get ther information from Ponton.OT) i ! \"ting into the bank.i gentlemen.\u201d \u201cto another topic, tin the rolt the summer of WAS PONTON AOCESSORY!

it failed.The other methods were spoken of.Île would not say the prisoners ware guilty or not but the fact remained that from the inning there was 4 conspiracy to rob the bank.The law in the matter of am accessory was read.Ii a man knew of the common fact and aided in it.he was a party to every offence Coinmittee.were equally liable.A man needed not to be present when the offence wax committed.The judge said, when speaking on the evidence of ap accomplice, that it was, taken alone, if believed suffirient to prove an offence.Jt Was the practice of the judge tn caution the jury.Yet if the jury did\u201d convict on the evidence it was à good conviction.The two accomplices stood thus: One was in the conspiracy throug, the whole time; Pare came in later, but he was responsible for the offences committed from the beginning.\u2018If the accamplices\u2019 evidence was true, it was plain that there was corroboration against both of the defendants,\u201d said the judge.There was no need of another witness to swear to the facts.THE JUDGE TOLD THE STORY from the start, taking Holden's evidence.He told it all so lucidly, that, though it has been on the tongue of every one for two weeks, yet he was Hstened to with rapt attention.The two Ind:ans' identification was unqualified of Holden and Markie.If any one could understand the force of the evidence, the jwdge said he would Lke to see the dlustention.Why did he let the two strangers take the team which the witness Was responsible for, Mackie was on that trwm with Ivnliden, that fact would corru- borate Holden's evidence.Then the story came on to the time when 4 mark was made on the safe and the drilling took place.Ponton did or left anything wndone in order to aid these men he was just aa guilty as they.Then the time was reached when Pare arrived.Roach\u2019s letter brought Pare to town, re had some conceit as a burglar.There was one thing to he nb.served before this, When Mackie, Holden The All the evidence brought together.to evidenre.Ponton was ziven 8125 at once, for it would be dangerous for him to have a large sum of money.One bill wag a fifty.Pare spoke of ane fifty being Ven to Pontan.How could Pare know that the money to be accéunted for was over $100 * Was it possible to come to anv other conmiderntion but the one ?The trip of April did nat need support on the par of the Crown.Yet was there not an: April trip * The trip bad been made te Mesermnte and on to Belleville.Why to Belleville, if there war not some one to touch with Lhere ?Clearly the whole trip was mate.The witneasca from Belleville for Ponton were tientioned, No man could put back lus mind tr n elock on a certain night and recall the hours Hoar conld they -be relied on?Mr.Matauley's evidence was paraphrased as \"I got a telegram on April 16: therefore 1 know it was the Sunday after.\u201d Mr.Osler put it: H saw John Smith acrnsa the road.I know it because his old cow died ten days afterwards.(Laughter.) THAT WAS THE ALIBI.Who could aay even if every word of the alibi were -believed that the meeting did not take place * Jt was also a curious thing that Dare and Holden knew the rooms inthe Dominion House, Bellex-itle, There was another alibi\u2014that of the\u2019 evening of August 27.It was easy when you were working for a friend to persuade yourself.The way an akibi was often made wis bv shifting an event to another date, The horse was bought by Fanning and an ex-reeve sold it.But when the date Was put at August 28 by the unaided memory of one man, it was putting speculation on the horse and trying tn ride through on ite bark.There was nothing but the unaided memory of one man to fix the alibi tm which one Davidson figured.Someone had done work in the case that would show a buut up defence.Take the umbrella man.le never invented that story; someone brought him here to tell it.That story meant a defence built up.It showed the desperate straits the defence was im.There were the alibis and there was not a document to support it.No one could fix an hour of two mon.« -o.Mr.Osler refer red to PON'TON'S ACTION FOR DAMAGES.\u201cA_ foolish ac.on.\u201d\u2019 He read Pare's letter to Mr.Potter, hintine af a conspiracy, \u201cOld George of the baseball club.\u201d \u201cLocate-tlust letter if you ean.Doex'nt it mean J know your action.1 can «poil your action.When you get it, you will have to settle up with old \\reorge.\u201d And the counsel took a breath- Ing\"space.fn conclusion, Jie referrad to the new witnesses of the defence at this last trial and thought it might ba si nificant.He declared that all preconcelved views shonld be cast behind.\u201cWark honestly, faithfully, logkiig only to the evidence.No word of mine, except to light the evideace, must be taken for.conviction, On the exidence sone u muitisgely.ou can\u2019t rely upon the Shen rt verdict.\u201d Mr.Osler said no Han rd 3 have passed through the lock.No evidence Wis adduced to show that any of these three could work the lock, After referring briefly to the combination, the judge apoke of the disagreement between the story of Pare and that of Holden as to the number of times they went in the vault, He COMPLIMENTED MR.OSLER upon his remarks upon the likelihood of 4 disagreement in time.e night of August 27 was reached.[t was by and through Ponton, they got in.The main fact was: Did Ponton do any act or leave any act undone to aid them ?lackie was returned to.A man who was seen consorting with criminals waa liable to have this fact u against him.e question arose : Was Mac with Pare, Holden and Roach ?Several witnesses identified Mackic as having been with them.The witnesses who sai they did not see Ponton and othere who didn't see Mackie, RB.D.MILES, LOCK EXPERT, OF ST.PAUL, WHO GAVE | EVIDENCE IN THE PONTON CASE.* ught that both sides of | trefoil 00 NEE BAN grounds ame act.Court, \u201cthat Pare open thes locke without any previous knowledge ?If Ponto tion, he was guilty of the whole.va.d d were not as strong ss positive who didn\u2019t see the ris: onsrs perhaps were not there at the right tima to se them.;

Canada's great winter game will soon be with us, and the stirring contests of the icy arena will be the most attractive feature of the winter season.years hockey has obtained the affections of the is growing comes Of late à strong hold on sport loving public, and tt more and more popular every season.Each season has been more successful than Its predecessor, and this coming season promises to even excel all past successes.The building of a big arena for the purpose of playing the matches In will, no doubt, serve to \u201cboom\u2019 the game, not that it needs any booming, but lack of accommodation has prevented a great many people from attending the matches in the past.But now there will be lots of room for everybody, and Increased at.° tendance is Jooxed for at matches.Naturally when one talks of hockey, the question of the championship is sure to crop up first, and who will be the next champion: i» an engrossing question.A careful review of the situation leads tn the reflection that the championship race during this coming winter is golng to be an unusually close ane .TheVictorins arn not so very far ahead of the other tenms now, and really one must confess that thers was a shade of luck their way last Beason In some of the matches that they won.Montreal will be strong, and their Young team will be almost in a state of perfection by the time that the season opens, and they are very anxious to get the championship.The Shamrocks are going to make the fight of their lives for the trophy, and that ratling good team of theirs will be fully 5) per cent.stronger this acason than 1t was last season.Ottawa has been working quletly, and the trouble between \u2018Waldy* Young und Chauncy Kirby has been patched up.and both will join forces, and strive to bring the Benators to the front.Quebec are still fn the game and are always certain of putting up a strong fight on their own Ice, yet mest hockey men are ready to #dmit that they were in hard luck on one or two occasions when away from home, Notably when they playrd the Victorias \u2018here.With five strong teams on the ice there will certainly be no lack of sharp contests, and the lovers of the game will not be disappointed in the way of hard fought matches.(t may be that there will be another factor In the Benior series.that is If the Capitals are admitted to tho senior ranks.They are very anxious o be In the first class, and are working steadily with that end in.view.Whether they will be allowed to compete In the senior series or not is another question, and !t will give the delegates at the an- anal meeting of the AmateuP Hockey Association of Canada something to talk shout when (hey meet next Saturday night, The Intermediate serles wiil be a lively Montreal Clubs, Point 8t.Charles A.A.A.and McGill, and the Aberdeens of Ottawa.If all \\are admitted, six local clubs could play aong themselves .Three Ottawa cubs would make another series, and the Quebec clubs and the Metropolitans, of Sherbrooke, would make the third ser- les.The incrense in the number of inter- medlate teams goes to show how the game is gaining popularity among the young players, and gives evidence of a growing interest in the game.the coming WHAT THE CHAMPIONS WILL DO.Of course, when one begins to talk hockey, naturally the Victorias are first thought of, and what the champions are golng to do during the coming season, ls Always an fnterestiag topic of conversation.The name of the Victorias has been for 8 long time associated with victory, and many people have come to regard them as synonymous.They have been often victorious, and\u2018as often as they have been victorious they have deserved their victories.Just at present who will compose the Victoria team during the coming season Is a rather difficult question to answer, and one even those who are intimately coneoted with the fortunes of the Victoria Hockey Club cannot answer, with any fagrée of assurednesa.The men that have been playing on the Victoria team have been in the game for a long time, and most of them feel it is time to put by their sticks and relinquish the chase of the puck.But, at the same time, they are all young men, and could stand another season's work without any ill effects.Hockey is a most fascinating rame, and those who have been playing it for any If your children are well \u2018but not robust, they need Scott\u2019s Emulsion of Cod- liver Oil.We are constantly in receipt of reports from parents who give their children the emulsion every fall fora month or

druggies.SCOTT & DOWNE, Chemists \u2018Tarsats jength of time are indeed loath to give up active participation tn it.ln spite of all.Therefore, no person would be very surprised to see the same seven players wearing the maroon jerseys this winter as did last season.At the same time it is well to sav that most of the old players have announced their intentions of giving up the game.However, the future will tell {ts own story.While every one has said that he will not play amaln, with each one's announcement there has heen a proviso ; he .will come out and play for the Stanley Cup.Every man of the Vics ls an xious to see this coveted trophy in possession of the club.and every man will Co his utmost to have it stay in Mont- teal.The games for this trophy wili be played, in all probablity, in the early part of the new year, about the time that the Amateur Hockey Association of Can- 4da\u2019s season begins, by the way, so that thrse gentlemen who are so anxious ta play for the possession of the Stanley Cup will.no doubt, be ready to play in the opening matches.\u201cGordie Lewis, \u201cMike™ Grant, \"Bob\" Macdougall and \u201cCam\u201d Davidson say that.for various causes, they are out of the game, but it is thought they will be induced to don their sweat- \u2018ers and come out again for the honour of the club.Drinkwater will be home again about the end of the year.and he l Will play in the match for the Stanley Cu; \u2018at least.Ernie Mclea is about (He only | one who is really certain to be out again.| However, the Vics have the advantage of an excellent intermediate team to full back on, so that there need not be any fear of lack of players to fill vacancies on the senior team, if there are eny.' MONTEEAL TRANS INTENTIONS.| Montreal Is looking after the champion- i ship, and as determined ns they have been in the past to get it, there 1s going to be {an even more determined contest for it | this season.Montreal has trained up a rattiing good team of young players, and | heretofore, their lost opportunities have been lald | to Inexperiegce, Now these ; Players have been wel trained, and brought almost to a state of perfection, \u201cænd.in the meantime, they have gained , the necessary experience, All this has | taken time, but the results fully justify ! the time and labour spent by the devoted | gentlemen who constitute the executive of the Montreal Hockey Club.Montreal has had the champlonship just | within Erasp for the past two seasons, but the Yictorias have been able to down them \u2018on each occasion, and there have been dire disappointments.These things have been harboured up, and Montreal! ls golng to make every effort to obtain Just revenge this winter.The team will, as things look now, be [about the same as that which so ably | Fepresented the club last season, and, in , sit probability.the same seven men will run through the season.\u2018\u2018Herb'\" Collins will figure between the poles, as usual.The defence will consist of Norris and \u2018Hugh Baird.This ls a strong trio, and will make any get of forwards hustle to ! get the puck by them.The forward line, } will be composed of \u201cClary\u201d McKerrow, { \u201cHarry\u201d Horsfall.Locke and Howard, but | there are several other young men who are going \u2018to make these four hustle to keep their places on the seninr team, and {it would not be very aurprizing to sec } some changes on the forward line, ere th» season has advanced very Car.This gives | Montreal a strong team, and they are bound to make rome great contests with their rivals for the championship.It was än excellent idea of the Montreu: Club to form a junior team.There has been to much neglect of the junior piay- ers.and plenty of first-class material has been allowed to go to waste for the want of some team on which the might play.Montreal has recognized thls, and now will foster the youngsters.This will he of benefit to the team in more ways than onc, it will strengthen the Intermediate team, and lay a solid foundation for a future senior team to take the place cf the present one, when the time comes that the present players must hang up their sticks and look on at the game from the side lines.ABOUT THE SHANBOCK TEAM.The Shamrocks intend to be In the game from the very start this season, and if they do not win the championship, {t will not be from any lack of enthusiasm, or good honest work on the part of the members of the team and the executive.The Shamrocks madé an enviable reputation for themselves last season, and thoy intend to do everything possible to further themselves in the good graces of everybody during this coming season.The young men who composed the Shamrock senlor team last season were s gentlemanly lot, anû were popular both on and off the ice The result has been a great Improvement in the following of the Bhamrocks, amd now they will not suffer from want of backing.The composition of the senior team will in ali probability be similar to that of last season.The same players are available, and, in addition, several other good men are going to turn out with the winged foot aggregation.\u201cHarry'\u2019' Trihey will captaln the team again, and this is à suf- ficlent guarantee that thé best results obtainable will be got, from the material under his command.Harry Trihey will\u2019 play cover, and the other candidates Jfor the forward line are \u201cDes\u201d Brown, \"Fred\" 8canlan, \u2018Jack\u2019 Brannon, and Arthur Farrell; the latter, by the way, has just returned from a trip through Europe, and has a lot of interesting stories to tell af life in the Old World.For the \u2018defence Frank Wall end Frank Tansey will be out again, and P, Charleton, who was formerly a Montreal man, is another candidate for a place on the back division, as ta also Wilson, Who played inside wing for Britannia, and is reputed to be à crack defence man.Dufty, MeGill's plucky quac- terback, is ccming out as a goal-keeper, but he Is going to have strong opposition.\u201cNm Wilson, Corneifus Honan and Hugh Semple are on the list, pnd they sre go- Ing to make a big bid for the position.There are several other good men on the list.Charlie Conrad, the Brits\u2019 big scrimmage man, Lorne McAllen, who played with him, and also Charila Allen.The intermediate team will he strengthened by the acquisition of a lot of players from the now defunat Overiands, whn have consented to throw in their lot with the Shamrocks.~ For the forwards there will de \u2018Pat\u2019 Mullin, \u2018\u2019Jaek\u2019 Do»- by.Emmet, Quinn, Charley Hoerner, and & couple of last season's players, among them Archle Cunningham.There are any number of good defenoe men qut also.Aitogether the Bhamprooks will have two strong teams and are not wanting for players for any positiod By way ef an- couraging the \u2018boys \u201d President \u201cBilly\u201d Snow has promised the semior team a tMp to the States if they sucesesd in winning the championship.a.THE MONTREAL DAILY STAR\u2014SATURDAY, DECEMBER 3, 189 FRIENDLY TO CANADA NEWS FROM QUEBEC.(Special to the Btar.) QUEBEC, December 3.\u2014 Although there is as yet no ice on which to practice, the members of the Quebec Hockey Club have Already gone into training, and two nights à week they are to be found hardening their muscles and lubricating thelr joints in the gymnasium.This is a feature to which the club has never heretofore devoted any attenlion, presumably because it did-not consider It worthy of any, but the fact that it is being rigidly attended to Is only one of the many indications which go to show that it is this year go- fog into the fight for the championship with a vim it has never before displayed.Every man is determined to do his utmost and the tendency to do too much rink work and so become stale, which many blame for the poor wind-up of last season, will be carefully avoided.It is probable that al! of last year's senior team, and also of the Intermedlate team, excepting C.WW.Swift, who Is away, will be out again, but there is some talk of a freshening up the team with new blood.Just to what extent it is either advisable | or possible to do this has not as yet been i determined, but there is an abundance .f | good material, though most of It can hard {ly come into senlor form for this season.Among those who are practically certa'n l to be candidates for the sentor team.are | Btocking, C, Scott, Watson, A.Smith, J.| Gillespie, Swift and Moran, while A.D.Scott may retire from active work.| It the weather continues fairly cold, ft should be possible to begin active prac- | ticing on or about December 15th, but i not much before, and the oficers are hopeful that with the new method of ; training better results than ever befate + seen may be obtained.FROM THE CAPITAL.(Special to the Star.) OTTAWA, December 3.\u2014 Hockey is be- , ing talked of earlier in Ottawa this year than ever before, and there is every reason to belleve that the game will enjoy a | boom equal to that of 1396-97, when ns many as 2,800 people saw a single senior match.A great deal will depend on whether or not the Capitals will get into the senior hockey league, With the Capitals in the senior series, the rivalry between that organization and the Ottawas would te somewhat similar to that existing between the Ottawas and Colllege football teams.A match between the two clubs would draw the biggest crowds that ever saw a hockey match in Otiawa.Hockey is being talked now instead of football, and the general opinion is tha the Capitals will have to remain in the i intermediate series.Opposition to their application {s anticipated from the Ottawas, who claim that the fight would not be one mersiy for hockey supremacy, but for the existence of the Ottawas at all.41 The Ottawss claim that in lacrosse the experience has been that in competition with the Capitals they have been unable to retain their men.They prefer not to bave this competition in hockey, and will ascribe this reason for ovjecting to the admission of the Capitals., However, if the Capitals remain in the intermediate league, there is Itkely to be the warmest kind of competition fn that series, with the Aberdeens, Second Ottawas and Capitals, and there is likely to be quite aa much interest in intermediate hockey as in senior.The Capitals and Ottawas are Doth ready to commence practice just as moan as there is ice.The Capitals will, at least be as strong as last year.Wilmott, thelr old goal-keeper, is now In Boston, and they will have to get a new man for the position.There are Ed.Murphy, \u201cDude\u201d Baldwin, and Duval for the defence positions in front of the flags.Duval, the Capitals claim is a coming star, and one of the best cover-point players in the game.On the forward line the available material includes Pat Murphy, Martin.McGuire, N.Kimpton, J.Kimpton, O'Con- oor and M.Smith.Thèsc men are good enough to make a very formidable team.The Capitals will likely play at Day's rink, ang wiil be right in the game whether for senior or intermediate honours.t year was considered an off year among the Ottawas.Besides playing in a lot of hard luck the team got some reverses early In the year from which they did mot recover This seazon a lot of enthusiasm in the team's affairs is already evident, and there is every reason to believe that a team will be placed on the ice much stronger than last year's seven.The amalgamation with the Maples was a good move, and besides fur nishing the seniors with a good recruiting ground for players, will ensure the existence of a first-class second team to practise with.The return of Chauncy Kirby, the dashing forward, will give the team another good man on the rush line foal will be filled by either Fred.Chittick or Alex.Cope, and both are good men.There will likely be a vacanty at point, as Pül- ford will hardly be able ta play, owing to tootball injuries.Weldy Young, as usual, will be at cover point, and is in Detter shape to play hockey than at any time since 1398.\u2018Young was playing great football, and four weeks rest before hockey will Jeave him in fine trim for the joe game.Among last year's forwards who Will play again sre Fred.White, Harry Westwick, Hutchison and Living.will be made to get Frank McGee, ons of the best juniors in the city to play with the Ottawas.Harry Rosenthal, also a prominent junior, will play with the team.In the Mapies there is a lot of good material, including O'Connor, Btuart Wilson, Nolin, Macdonald, and others, * TEE QUAREC CRESCENTS.© (Special to the Star.) QUEBEC, December 8.\u2014 The Crescent Hockey Team, of this city, which made such a good showing tn the intermediate sericea last season, is.entering the lists this year with a full determination to do better duving this winter than last.There is a good deal of regret over the fact that Herbert and Harry Copeman, last year's goaler and pdint, may de unable to play.but they will, in all lkelthood, be ably rep) .by 8.Moran and J.Doyls, of Star Hockey Team, which made such a remarkable showing in the local Junige \u2018series fast season.Many members of the Crescent club are confident that the team is fit to travel in senior company, and an exhibition match between them and thé senior Quebecers ts among the possibilities.Should the Crescents land the palm in their cliss this season, they fully lnten2 tp apply for admission to the senior ranks next beason.flo far as con de teen to-day the team for tite senson ta: Goal, Moran; point, J.Doyle; cover point, Nolan; ferwarés, P.CURE 5 NEXVOL Que Wh ASE BIN A MINUTR La wg of.C4 ars .\u201c4 n B.Marquette.Doyle, MoCarroi This club hag also 8 very George .arpe.good jpnior team, which can always recruit ita ranks with excellent mes, and it can also draw from most of the other Junior teams in the city.A WORD FROM SHERBROOKE.D (Bpeclal to the Star.) SHERBROOKE, December 3.\u2014 The Metropolitan Hockey Club, of this city, hopes to enter the intermediate series in good form this season.According to R prominent member of the club, the team will be stronger than last year.Most of the old players will be in their places, but some good new blood will be introduced.Bevera! of the players were prominent on the lacrosse fleld during the past season, and are, therefore, in prime condition for the winter's work.Bherbrooke's success in Intermediate lacrosse is lfkely to have some influence upon the hockey club.By diligent practice the team will endeavour to gain as good a position in the intermediate hockey league as the lacrosse club did in their series.The club has held several meetings for the discussion of plans for the season, and the members generally appear well satisfied with the prospects.Messrs.E.W.Farwell, E.Spafford and J.A.Lomas wil|_be the representatives at the league meeting In Montreal next week.At a recent meeting the club elected the following officers for the ensuing year: Hon.pres, HR.Fraser; president, J.A.Lomas; secre- tary-treasurer, E.Spafford; committee, F.H.Bradley, A.G.Bonnallie and A.E.Wiggett.RICHES OF THE WEST.Mr.Richard Armstrong Tells About His Town Bite, Grand Forks.Mr.Richard Armstrong, a well known financier, who represents Eastern capital- In the mining regions of British Columbia, {8 at the Windsor.His sucuess in consolidating various enterprises has been referred to by the western press.His latest deal was in acquiring the town site of Grand Forks.a prosperous mining town in the Boundary Creek district, boasting a population of one thousand.Mr.Armstrong helped to win big party majorities when president of the Young Men's Conservative Club, of Toronto.Mr.Armstrong is enthusiastic aBout the mining development of his adopted province.While giving due credit to the Rossland section.he claims that the Boundary Creek district Is much richer.and in proof cites Government reports, and the vast development work now in progress.Between Ofty and \u2018ixty properties have been opened up: more than half of them are producing, while the others are carrying on development work.The lack of railway communication and other drawbacks will soon be overcome.It is expected smelters will be in operation within eighteen months.The ore is usually a copper-sulphide carrying gold values varying from $10 to 5100 to the ton.Mr.A.B®, Gault, of Mont- eal, is largely interested in that section; s0 is Mr.D.D.Mann, who with associates controls the Stemwinder, the Brook- Jyn and the Winnipeg mines.Grand Forks is situated at the junction of the North Fork and Kettle River.The soll in the valleys is very tertile.Fruits growsabundantly, One 33 acre orchard in one season netted the owner §7- 000.Potatoes yleld 300 bushels to the acre while oats harvest 120 bushels to the acre a8 compared with an average of 3 bushels in Eastern Canada, Grand Forks has waterworks, and is lighted by electricity.NEWS OF THE CITY.\u2014_\u2014 FINGERS CRUSHED.William Burns, aged a Grand Railway employe, had thee fingers crushed at the G.2 station this morning.He was taken to the n $i]: Montreal General Hospital.ORANGE DINNER \u2014 Derry Loyal brate the closing of the Gates of Derry by a dinner on Wednesday the 14th December, i all, 2204 St.Catherine St.ANNUAL S8ALE.\u2014The Guild of St.Anne, of the Church of St.John the Evangelist, wi Hall, No.0221 St.Ca Wedlnedda \u2018I petnber 78h, from 2,20 tens 0 cit pim.STO fit SUCGEESFÉL BAZAAR\u2014A 3 full uk Presbyt Church\u2019 yesterday afternoon and evening under the auspices of the Ladies\u2019 Aid So- many useful and fancy articles are in aid of the church building fund.Goulet hos kindly offered a free scholarship in the violin department of the Dominion wil) held on \u2018Wednesday evening next the \u201cth inst.at 3.15 aclock in the College KARN HALL.\u2014On Sunday afternoon, at half past three, in Karn Hall, the subject 0 Orange Benefit Lodge, No.24, will cele- in the \u2018~hold its annua!

but as the Japanese have uot, at present at all events, a very wide: ly-exteuded entjure, the couple of hundred tons coal capacity is well exchanged for the four extra guns and the additional armour.The Shikishima\u2019s displacement is 14,850 tons.Her dimensions are: Length over all, 438 ft.; length between perpendi culars, 400 ft.; extreme breadth, 75 ft &in.; dephth, 45 ft 2 1-2 in.; draught on 14,830 tons dispiacéinent, 27 ft.3 in.The armour consists of a complete waterbne belt of Harveyed nicklesteel 8 1t.2 in.in depth and tapering from 9 in.in thickness anudships to 4 in.at the ends.Above this is a 6- inch belt of the same material between the barbettes and extending to the height of the main deck.the barbettes there are 14 in.of Harveved steel, and the bulk: eads are 12 in.thick.The engines Humphreys, Tennant, and Co, are to develop 14,500 horse-power and drive t Shikishima at a & of 18 1-2 knoth, Belleville boilers will be fitted in the ship.The Shikishima is the heaviest vessel ever lnunched from a ship.Her total launch- iug weight was 8250 tons, of which 780 represented the weight of the hull and the t remainder the h launching cradles.In her armament the Shikishima is a remarkable ship.She is to ca four in.tr-loading Fun of 40 calibrer, arranged in pairs in two barbettes; four- teeen 8 in.quick-firing gune of 40*calibres: twenty 12-pounder quick-firing guns; eight 47mm.3-pounder quick-firers; four 47mm.2 1-2-pounder quickfirers; eight Maxima and five 18-in, torpedo tubes, four of which are under water.\\ A QUIET LAUNCH.In view of the terrible.disaster which occurred at the Thames Yard a few montha ago, when her Majesty's ship Albion as launched, the launch\u201d of the Shikishima was made a comparatively quiet affair.The public, and even the bulk nf the com- pay ® own workmen, were excluded from the scene.A considerable num of spectators collected opposite the launching stip on the stone wharves adioining the Trinity House Torkshops.ere were also a few people on the jetty near the mast louse, but the spectators in the Thames Ironworks yards were limited to the invited guests.When the spectators Lad reached their alioted places the workmen beneath the vast hull hegan knocking away the shores that kept the ship in her ace.ntly a shrill whistle echoed rom somewhere down in the depths below the keel and Madame Kato, at the appro- priste moment, cracked a bottle of sherry on the very point of the vessel's mighty ram, and Then.with a slashing blow of a great silver knife, severed the ribbon that, with mesny a cunning device of the engi- ncers, held all the Shikishima's 8,000 tons ut rest.There was a moment's pause, and then, in obpdience to the strenuous pulse of the irresistible hydraulic engines beneath our feet, the grest fabric n to mrve.With steady and stately pace the ship moved down' the ways, there was a graceful little curtsey to Father Thames as the ways parted neath her Jeel, and the nest moment the Shikishime was reat- i on his muddy : ing .Overhead the liberated pi fluttered freedom, and white rejoicing in their newly-found amid the showers of little red ' paper squares that had accompan oir release, and the spectators cheered amain at the completion of a most successful launch.Congratulations were ex in ft J ;

OTTAWA, December 2 \u2014 Ever since the reprieve of Valentine Shortls, the attention of the public has been more commonly attracted to the question of the commutation of capital sentences, from time to time the announcement of some fresh case in which the exercise of the clemency of the Crown occurs continues to rivet attention on this matter.It is à Question of fundan:ental Iniport- ance, for 1f the punishment of a crime is not only to uct as a corrective to him who suffers, but alco as a deterrent to him who is tempted, it is of vital importance to the community a: large that the punish- than and ment should not be lightened, or in uny way interfered with, without very grave reason.Nor, it is claimed, 13 this dune.Owing probably to the fact that the Minister of Justice is the Cabinet member whose report generally decides the fate of the condemned prisoner.the {dea hus grown In the public mind that the Department of Justice Is a sort of court of appeal against the death son- tence when pronounced by u judge.This is a popular delusion.The jude, In puss- Ing tee death sentence, does his duty, but a Minister of Justice who refused to reconsider, or even neglected to reconsider a death wentence, would be negligent ui his duty, and false to his oath of o:fice Sir Matthew Halé, cie of the most eminent of England's Chief Justices, writing on thls matter, save: \u2018The judge ss clothed with the prerogative of justice only,\u201d It is his place to deal with the T'es adduced, and the facts ud contained 1herein, to direct th: jury aceord- ingly, and to pars scotence i.conformity to the verdict.The coronation oath of the Sovercigns of Great Iritain contains a clause by which the Rovereign swears to \u201cadminister Justice In mercy.\u201d The first part of this ob- ilgution 18 performed before the judge in court, the sccond part before the executive, in other words, b fore the Department und Minister of Justice The trial being over.und sentence pronounced, the Uritfsh constitution provides one more right for the cundemned mann, that is that the case shall be retried by the Department of Justice, In mercy.This provision is n very beau!iful one.and it is one which Is an ornament, and an ex- constitution, in order to sccure this reconsideration afker every triul, Copies of thé who'e pro- cesdings are went with the utmost de- spdtch to the Department of Justices, where officers specially trained by jong Sears of practice, study the reports, and prepare departmental reports for the Minister.He, in turn, devotes his attention to the matter, and in the majority of cuses invites the trial judge to make a spactul confidential report.This report is sacred, though there have been cases where the confidence has not been observed.Sir George Grey once prevented a trial judge's report to the Imperlal! House of Commons, but such instances are rare, and there are many precedents for the e- partment refusing to obey an \u2018order of the House\u201d to produce these reposts, Often there are circumstances in connection with the trial which may lead the \u2018trial judge to volunteer a private report.In one case 8 judge wrote: \u201cI do not con- sclentiousiy believe that the prisoner committed the crime he has been found Bullty of.\u2019 Geherally, however, the judge waits to be invited by the M!uister to report.Bo far, there bas bren no precedent for hanging a man, when the judge hus recommended commutation.The Minister of Justice having weighed ever the case, and in accosdiance with the coronation bath, it ts hha place to let mercy have full walght -makes his report to Council, and the s gnature of the repregentative of the Crown compleles the commutation.As oircumstances outside the department have 5° very great weight In these matters, !t is hard tn lay down a Part line.and say that the Min.{ster who recommends mos: commiita- tions ia the worst incumbint of the office.From the following table it wil he seen that in fourteen Mears a most exact four-ninthas of those sentences to death huve been recipients of the clemency of the Crown.and five.ninths have been executed, The figu:»s ar: Com, Exe.R 11 4 4 3 3 5 6 a 3 - 1h 2 3 3 3 4 2 3 5 2 3 4 0 2 4 4 7 46 62 - Only In 1288 were all the condemned re- spited, and it 11 be seen that in very many years the proportion And commut- @t has deen about haif of that condemn- éd.Only four times in fourteen years has the number of condemned reachcd double figures.This year of grace is not yet completed, and as there are some three tios show these figures, or nearly theso figures, reversed.se THE GOULD CASE.Mrs.Cody Placed on the Stand in Her Own Behalf.BAYS SHE ACTED IN THE INTER- ¥ESTS OF HER CLIENTS.ALBANY, December 3\u2014Thursday was devoted almost exclusively to the examination and cross examination of the defendant in the Gould blackmailing cas Mrs, Cody was placed on the stand after two unimportant witnesses were examined, and her counsel had opened thelr aide of the cases.Her cross-2x- amination was not concluded when the court sdjourned.In respense to questions from her at- tormey, Mr.Duggan.Mrs.Cody told a straightforward story an to her connee- Hon with Mrs.Angel's case and her ocross-examingtion, which was conducted for the prosecution by Delancy Nichotl, was of a preliminary naturg and did not weaken her story up to its corresponding points in the eross-examination Mrs.Cody said that her first attention was called to the care by an interview in the Rocky Mountain News of Denver in December, 18), with Mr.Plerce, In which the latter was qu \u20184d as saying that his wife, Mrs.Angell': \u2018\u2019aughter, vas I the daughter of the late J.v Gould, who hag deserted hin frst wife, She had on several occas na been em Moyed to look up relat'onriiins And fam- \u2018fly trees and the like, When she saw this ftem In the paper she began i corrempond- noe with Mrs.Pierce concerning the matter, and eight months liter visited \"Mrs.Angell at Rouse's Point, and after \u2019 clusive ornament of the liritish crown and ; | lof Arabla, one of the chitf towns MUNYON'S æ a case of dyspep- sin, indigesticon or any stomach trouble that cannot Le re lieved at ovee aud rmanenüy cul y my DYSPEPSIA CURE.MUNYON.At all druggists, 25c.a vial uide to Health and medical advice free.1508 Arch street, Phila.The coming gent skin diseases, because so many mothers are using 9, 9 Baby\u2019sOwn ?Seap THE ALBERT Terry Soa» Co.MONTREAL MANUIANTURTRS C7 740 CELEBRATES ALCERT T2ulT G3APS 284*nt51 THE QUEEN'S HOTEL-.Billiard Parlours the management of J.IH IUTIG ESS, fate of the Windsor tloteljbilliard room, = cod t!

LONDON, December 3.\u2014The sensationalism in which England has been wallowing in her foreign politics of late has even in- vuded the innermost recesses of Nonconformity.All london has marvelled this week at two anonymous sleep-destroying articles in that most staid Li review, the Contemporary.In one the German Emperor becomes the \u2018arch enemy of England\u2019 plotting with Russia and France int Far and Near Fast to lure England on to her destruction by a combination of Europe against her.Rubbish, no doubt, but dangerous rubbish, and uncomfortably indicative of the high fever with which recent events seem to have impregnated a large, section of the English public.ily the real ruling fôrcés in England-are Keeping cool heads amid all this hubbub.They map out for England a mission far removed from that of preparing to meet \u201cthe whole world im deadly conflict.The almost unparalleled success of Kitchener\u2019s scheme for the Gordon Memorial College at Khartoum is an indication of this sanity.Instead of worry over fan~ful Furopean combinations against her, she quietly goes on with her work.Regardless of the isolated puny French ts along the line of what must ultimately bécome British Africa, she unprovocatively fills in the outlines of her dominion, according to what Mr.Chamberlain called this week the'ideals of the Anglo-Saxon race: \u201cHumanity, jus tice, frkedom, and equality of opportunity.\u201d EDUCATING THE SOUDANESE.| The Sirdar, Lord Kitchener, asked for $500,000 to found a Gordon college, as the first step in the organization of the Soudan, and within a week from the time he gets it, the children of the Sheiks, will be taught English and such elementary subjects as .Later technical bis fn Toph included in the cursicututiy a Lord Roseberÿ éaïd this new way with een.quered races should have a, good effect upon suspicious foreigners and excitable Enghah- men at home.Nations, which \u2018make conquests with purely material aims, do not at once pour out their money for raising the condition of the inhalsitants.f course, there is the inevitable outdry from a section of Englishmen that the college must made dogmatically Christian, but in the Soudan, .&s in India, England's first business will be to make good M not bad Christians.Some even bold] urge that the new college be purely a college of a Et Mohammedan Universit which one y will have its seat in Cairo or Indu.- WHAT ABOUT AMERICA?With this latest Kitchener project in mind, it is natural that Englishmen should ask themselves, with just a tinge, perpaps, y anxiety: Is America\u2019s, new empire to be built as is land's or ia the worid about to witness the first grand failure of the Anglo-Saxon race in the government of inferior races.\u2018Secretary Al ger's report, published here to-day, is taken to show that the American statesmen téslive the gravity the task upon which they are chtering.He calls for an American army of iminating the Indian h Eliminating the Indi army, ic! stands apart, the regular forces upon Thid the whole British Empire depends for mili- 2 efence of its wide smttered posses sions and innumerable little wars, is only 36 dam 0 JATIES HUTCHISON, STOCE BROKER (Mecaber of Mon!
