Did the Dake Blunder.Loxpox, Jan, 4.\u2014The Gladstonians are indignant at the tenor of the address in which Lord Hartington, hitherto leader of the Unionist forces in the House of Commons, bade farewell to his coustitn- ents of Rossendale on the occasion of his succession to the Dukedom of Devon- shire.The unwritten law in such cases is that the new peer shall not intorfere in any way with the contest between the rivai candidates for the seat in the House of Commons which he vacates.It is contended by the Liberals that Lord Hartington violated this rule by making his address an election appeal pure and eimple in behalf of Brooks, the Unionist nominee.If the Liberal nominee is defeated the question of unseating Brooks on the ground of undue influence is Jikely to be raised in Parliament.The House is very jealous of ite prerogatives and is quick to resent any dictation from the Lords.\u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 The Czar and the Famine,

the guard, joined with his fellow officers in a movement to give up their pay for atime for the relief of the sufferers.The offer was communicated to the Czar, who, instead of receiving it with satisfaction, showed that he was offended, and said thers was no famine, but merely a partial failare of crops, which was being relieved by the Government.As Gen.Mansei haa 8tood high in the favor of the Czar, this expression of feeling is regarded as showing that the Czar considers the famine reports as reflactions upon himself as an autocrat.\u2014\u2014\u2014 Leopold II.Very Ill, BrusseLs, Jan,

Childwell were drowned.The survivors, who were rescued by the British steamer Ipswick, of the Great Eastern line, claim that the Noordland, after crushing tha bark, made no effortto help the crew, but hurried away from the spot as if afraid of sinking, leaving the crew of the wrecked yeseel to save themselves as best they could.Several went down with the bark and others clung to the wreckage, some later dropping into the sea through weakness before assistance arrived.When the Ipswick came up there was but one mast 1emaining for the survivors to cling tg, and this would not have held them ong.A rigid inquiry will be held as to the responsibility tor the wreck and the reported inhumanity of the Noordland.\u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 The Pope Wishes William IX.Success, BERuIx, Jan,

is in town making arrangements.for his removal to Montreal, where he.will in future reside.In conversation With a reporter this morning, Mr.Tache- said that there had been some truth in the story that he was likely to be a candidate at the elec ion in Richeliea County.There was, he said, widespread dissatisfaction among the Conservatives.of the county at the candidature of Mr.E.A, Morgan, who, itis claimed, only secured the nomination by \u201cpacking\u201d the convention with his own paraonal friends.Senator Guevrement, Mayor Taillon of Sorel, and the Vanasse family, all staunch Conservatives, are strongly opposed to Mr.Morgan, and represent the position of à good half of their party in the county.Mr.Tache said he had been approached by some of these dissident Conservatives and asked to run as an independent candidate.They assured him that if he would be a candidate that he would secure a good share of the Liberal support.Hé told them he did not desire ,to split the party, but if he were

Sporting News, \u2014\u2014 The Board of Control! Sends Forth Another Bombshell.The Bun says: The Board of Control, representing the Monmouth Park Racing Associaiion, Coney Island Jockey Club, New York Jockey Clab, and Brooke lyn Jockey Club, sent its second bombshell into the winter racing camp on the heights of Guttenburg yesterday.The bomb was loaned with this announcement: At a meeting of the Board of Contrcl held this day the following resolution wee adopted : Reeolved, That officials of courses racing In contravention of the resolution of D.c.22,1891, shall not be employed by 1l:e courses represented in the Board of Control W.S.Vosuran, Sec.New York, Dec.29, 189: Following is the resolution raferrad to: Retolved, That owners, their horses, trainers, and jockeys racing on aay courae north of Maryland or east of Ohio at which their is racing in Dscember, January or February, or on more than 30 days in a calendar year, shall not be qualitied to enter, start, ride, or have any license for the races of the associations repretonted in the Board of Control, but this resolution shall not take effect until Jan, 1, 1892, While tbe action taken yestorday will not cause ths excitement that followed the publication of the above resolut on, it will have an important braring on £everal officials that perform dual duty at the wint-r and summer tracks.Firci comes the position of starter, which Mr, J.F.Caldwell fills better in many ways than any other man who has handled the flag in America.If is said on gcd authority that Mr.Caldwell is paid $150 per day for his services at Guttenburg, and $10) per day at the tracks repr:- sent-d by the Board of Control.As the yeaular geason does not begin until May 15, if Mr, Caldwell re\u2018ingnishes his pt at Guttenburg on Jan.l he would lose far more than he would make on the other tracks during the legitimats sesson from May 15 to Oct 15.The starter is the man aimed at, and great will be the curlosity to see whether the shot will bring him down.Mr.Joseph Burke will probably preside in the judges\u2019 stand at Saratoga for the new association, and any spare time will be occupied by him at western tracks outside of the jurisdiction of the Board of Control.Whether Barney Aaron,who announces to the bookmakers all scratches and changes of weights as soon as they are made, and Jack Adler, who shouts the names of the placed horses with stentorian voice when their numbers are boisted, will come under the ban, is doubtful, a= their ealarles are paid by bookmakers who are really the financial life of the associations.In the main each association employs its owa set of officials, The New Jersey police officers who preserve order at Gatton burg would scarcely expect to act in the same capacity in the Stats of New York.Philip Dwyer, a member of the Board of Control, was seen at the St.James Hotel last nicht.When asked what he thought of tbe resolution he responded: \u201cWhat do I think ofit?Well, I was there when the resolution was passed, wasn\u2019t I?And it wouldn\u2019t have gone 1brough if I hadn't been there, would it?Dcesn\u2019t that show what I think of it?Guess it does,\u201d and Mr.Dwyer looked very much satisfied with himself.\u2018Do ycu think it will have the effect of stamping out winter racing ?\u201d \u201cWell, 1t looks that way to me.\u201d Starter Caldwell was in the land of dreams when a reporier for The San called at his lodgings last night, and the attendants refused to arouse him, The Reaper Amongst Horses.In the horse world death rakes in young and old alike.He pays no favorites, and when on his ropads never hesitates, the famous aod the unknown being visited with the same off hand familiarity that makes them equal.In 1891 a number of celebrities in the turf world have been rung down, and many that have earned honors in the stud have disappeared.Last week's returns show that Almont Rattler, Pilot Mambriso and Blackwood are among that number.*\u201cB:ackwocd! Why, we thought he was dead yeais ago!\u201d semebody may say, and the old horse was practically dead to the world, although 84ill in the flesh at 8.Bailey's stable at Piconderogs, N.Y.His fame belongs to the last generation of torfmen, and like Smuggler and many cthers, he outlived it.Blackwood was foaled in 1866, at Lexington, being bred by D.Swigert He was got by Alexander's Norman, out of a mare by Mambrino Chief.As a youn;- ster he was considered of but little account, and tretters were cheap in those days if they could not go well.He was taken up as a 3-year-old, however, ani soon get the world on fire by trotting a mile in 2:31.This was a new world\u2019s record for 1869, and shortly after that John W.Conley purchased him for Harrison Durke, the price being $30,000, Tha mile that Blackwood trotted was his greatest achievement; still the chances are that if he had remamed in Kentucky and been bred to Mambrino Chief mares or mares got by that horse\u2019s sons he would have ranked well as a sire.Proteine, 2:18, was his fastest trotter and fow stallions got a better campaigner than the brown mare Sally Chorister produced to Blackwood's cover.Black- wood, jr., also earned himself the title of the \u201cIron Horse from Tennessee\u201d during the year of the centannial.He and Proteine are now dead, the best living descendant of the old horse that we know of being Siutor.He is ont of £ue, the dam of Egthorne, Edge Hill, etc., and is owned somewhere in Ohio.\u2014 N.Y.Sporting World.THE WHEEL.7 4 he L.A.W.Will Not Adopt the Cash Prize System, New York,

the arrangement, He wrots to President Young yesterday protesting against it, and giving his reasons why Richardson should be allowed to play in this city.Pending Mr.Young's reply no steps will be taken to secure a second baseman, Inthe event of a failure to get Danny, it is quite likely that Manager Powerswill try to work a deal with the Chicago Club, whereby Fred Pfeffer will be transferred to New York.Pieffer does not want to play with Anson, and would undoubtedly welcome an opportunity to sign with Powers.Mike Kelly Will Play in Boston Because No Other Ciub Wants Him.Boston, Jan, 4.~It is a matter of surprise to Mike Kelly's followers that none of the big baseball clubs in the country would make a bid for the player whose release from the Chicago Club could not be purchased for less than $10,000 only à few [seasons ago.They are still more astonished to learn that the Boston Club tried to unload him on scme other club, but that no club would take him as a gift.They have just waked up to the fact that the king's power has gone.The baseball cranks will be crankier than ever when they learn that it was on Mike Rolly\u2019s account tbat Morgan Murphy, the popular young catcher, will not play with the Boston Club next saason.In only one contingency did Murphy have any show of being a member of the Bus- ton League team of 1892, and that lay in case Kelly could be unlcaied.Kelly is under contracs with Boston for 1892 and there was no room for a fourth catcher.It is said that the Boston Club would have been willing to take Murphy in place of Kelly could it have induced any club to take the latter, bat at Indianapolis no clab made any ra- quest for the player.The Boston Ciub being thus compelled to retain Kelly, there is no room on the team for Murphy, and he is cousigned to Cincinnati, where he will probaoly n t be averse to going with Comiskey.AsiJe from Kelly's presence on the nine, the Boston cranks are very well pleased Continued on Page Eight.THE

craze, like the plaque fad of a few years ago, is not conned to a particular locality or peculiar to a particular kind of people.The woman who can\u2019t afford the French importation of gilded carving and tapestry takes a bit of China silk in a bamboo frame, sets the tot- tlish things np ina dismal corner, and is convinced that she has not lived in vain.The mission of the screen is manifold, and well is its labor of love falfilled.Dark corners are brightened, lovers\u2019 nooks protected, undesirable corners and passages concealed, and dreary wall spaces made glorious by the ubliquitous screen in some of its myriad expressions.Louis XIV., XV, XVI, and Marie Antoinette styles domin- | ate the mode in the more expensive varieties.The general characteristics of these screens are that they have frames of carved wood overlaid with gilt, and have panels of striped silk, tapestry, or rare painting or embroidery.heir distinguishing differences are n:erely points of detail scarcely apparent to the uneducated eye.There is a marked increase in the voluptuousness, sensuousness of the curves and lines from the Louis XIV.period up to that of Louis XVI.and his ill-fated Queen, Marie Antoinette.In the screens of the earlier period the outlines are simpler, approaching more nearly the integrity of the straight line, and more dignified in decoration.The panels are covered entirely with silk fitted smoothly into the frames.The lines bend more wantonly into curves as the next period approaches.Fanciful and ornate embellishments of carving are introduced, cupids and faces of goddesses as well as leaf forms appear in the decoration.MORNING HOUSE TALK.\u201cRingers\u2019\u2019 for Young Wives and Girls Soon to Wed.Ç A novel fire screen on four feet, says the New York Times, has a long narrow shelf at the top for ornaments, and another near the bottom.The upper one is supported with a Moorish arc beneath this and attached to the legs are two little brackets, the one high up and the other low down.On a rod at the back is run a full curtain of silk.The screen is decorated in the style known as imitation marquetrie, of which specimens grow constantly handsome.\u201cCrushed morocco\u201d is a new favorite in the leather field.It is considerably more decorative than crocodile leather, being smooth and very pliable.It comes in beautiful shades \u2014 electric blue, water- reen and heliotrope, and, fashioned into Blotting books, pocketbooks, card cases and other small leather impedimenta is very effective.It is perhaps not generally known that we get our custom of wearing orange blossoms from the Saracens, and that the Red.Cross Knights always saw their brides thus adorned on the marriage day.Sachets are keeping pace with cushions and pillows in size and variety.Bed sachets to hold night-dresses are covered with sheer muslin and trimmed with lace, put on very full, often in jabot effect.The narrow ribbons are much used in trimming these pockets, combined with the lace.The Newest Fabrics., Everything Russian is fashionable.Children wear Russian cloaks plaited like the muzhik\u2019s blouses, and the same idea ia carried into evening wraps, the newest of which are of satin, with a wadded or fur lining.New silks include many with raised stripes on a satin or repped ground, the stripes resembling cords sewn on the ground.Among the new winter stuffs is a cloth which imitates Jersey webbing, and which will be very fashionable.Contrasts in cloth gowns are frequent.For example, there are Black cloth gowns trimmed with bias slashes lined with red collar, vest, cuffs and edges beiflg likewise of red.Blue cloth forms the main part of | another gown, with all the accessories of gray cloth or tan-color, and gray cloth is similarly combined with blue or heliotrope.Poplin is announced as the coming fabric glace, that is, changeable in two colors, as reen with orange, black with red.This §bric, which is only shown as yet in the shape of merchants\u2019 samples, is to be trimmed with silk of the two colors woven in it, one on the outside and the other for facings, Paris letter in Harper\u2019s

the peason\u2019s liking for black being so great, that a bodice, jacket or coat of golden- rown, garnet, olive, sapphire and navy- blue, with a skirt of any shade is counted in very good style.\u2014Ladies\u2019 Home Journal.fF.THE VERY LATEST.Warm-Looking Rough Woolens for Street Wear.\" The fashionable modistes who have recently returned from Paris commend warm- looking rough woolens for street dresses, such as vigogne woven in the wide diagonals that are sometimes of two colors, as light blue alternating with black ; also fleec camel\u2019s-hair stuffs, both plain and figured, and serges that are very broadly twilled.THE MIKADO JACKET WAIST.Very young ladies and girls in their teens will wear gowns of black and blue wool, interwoven with golden yellow, made with Jacket and girdled weist.VIGOGNE GOWNS.Street dresses of widely twilled rough vigogne come in bright shades of green and i in\"the new light blue, trimmed with black velvet ribbon, with frogs of passementerie, and with black soutache edged with gold.PASSEMENTERIES AND LACE BASQUES.Sleeveless basques of black passementerie are worn over a colored silk waist with silk sleeves, and are trimmed with a fur collar band, and front border ot brown mink, sable, or black marten, The passementerie falls in coat-like tabs below the waist, while the silk is merely a round bodice.\u201ca DINNER COATS.\" Thickly repped yet soft Muscovite silks and bengalines of light color are made up in shitred basques called dinner coats, to be worn with a skirt of white or light- colored faced cloth bordered narrowly with far.\u2014Harper\u2019s Bazar.Fashions in Jeweley.Graduated bows, seven in number, of small silver beads and Jastened with a square clasp are suitable for young girls.At night they look like pearls, young et Stained ivory is beautifully applied to a pet of oyster forks.The forks are trident- shaped, though few in number, and have sh-hook terminations, a happy and sensible idea.Small bows of blue enamel interspersed with diamonds are hung on a fine gilt chain to Wear as a necklace.The bows are five in nuthber and are graduated in size, the larger of course being in the middle, Round thimble-shaped jars of cut-glass with silver gilt tops are used to contain salts.They are intended for rooms, which can be pleasantly perfumed, and invigorated by removing the cover for a few momen\u2019s.Old-fashioned sugar-sifters are coming into vogue.- They are cylinders fully five inches high with cone-shaped perforated tops and are to be used pepper-box fashion.Chased and ornamented, they are an interesting addition to the trade.Circular earrings the size of 25 cent pieces are seen every few steps this fall.Sometimes they are set with good-sized diamonds with spaces of plain gold; again they are wheels of topaz, and again rings of repousse gold.They are a decided innovation on the unobtrusive styles of earring that have been worn for so long.Loves and doves riot over everything that is used for lovely woman in her personal adornment\u2014on her brushes, combs, hand- glasses, shoe-horns, parasol handles.The most dainty adaptation is seen on her card- cage of white vellum and undressed kid.In the former the ornament is illuminated, on the latter is a raised ornament lightly touched with gold.\u2014Jewelers\u2019 Ciroular.In Buying a New Hat.The a new hat.1 am still enough of à girl for that, and I like to see the girls in their pretty new hats; but I want to say this to them: Don\u2019t get a hat that is too fine for your frocks.Bort spend all your money in elaborate laces and plumes and ' jots, when a simple little turban, made of cloth like your frock, or a black felt suited in shape to your face, and trimmed with a ' wing or two, or some loops of ribbon, will not only be becoming, but will stand the winter's wear, and, By being brushed often, look almost as good as new.\u2014Mrs, Mallen, jn the Ladies\u2019 Home Journal TE Mo the¥s!

possibly they too would not have seemed to us faultless if every one of their small decisions and all their trivial utterances had been subjected to the electric light publicity of to-day.Perhaps Gordon was a anatic, and his discernment was not accur- : ate, But he was single-hearted, devoted te what he considered to be his duty, and brave to a striking degree.When we remember how he faced death throngh those | Weary date we cannot criticise him.The _ story of that rescuing army which came so \u2018 near him and yet failed, and of his long hoping in vain, only to be shot down at the last, must always remain ene of the most hetic tales of history.\u2014From \u201cCairo in ;

O\u2019Beirne and Ryder; Alderman Hart got the sergeant-at-arms at $300, and Alderman Wuand the librarian at $1000; the three places of messenger were drawn by Aldermen Brown, Rogers and Tait.The a.dermen who were unlucky and got nothing were Aldermen Bailey, Dooling, Flynn, Martin, Morphy and Noonan.This remark, however, is not strictly true of Mr, Noonan.He drew one of the $1000 placer, but on being renominated for the \u2018vice-presidency of the board, he mag- panimously threw his prize back into the hat.On a redrawing for chis place it was secured by Alderman Ryder.We .ancy the reflection in the mind of every 1 onest man on reading of such an open defiance of common decency, will be: \u20185h ! for à wbipin every honest hand, T lash such rascals naked through the land,\u2019 le Oliver Wendell Holmes has laid down his pen and proposes to take a rest.\u2014># Our City FATHERS SEEM TO BE taking un- usval interest in the approaching ward contests and alderman to-day were as scarce round the City Hall to-day as ships in the harbor, From enquiries it would seem that nearly all of them are already engaged in electioneering and the only meeting called for to-day Was postponed asit was found impossible to depend up on a sufficiant attendance.Tag NorrawksT TERRITORIES, though as \u2018yet sparsely populated, still count among them a number of loyal and liberal settlers who object to be ruled in a despotic manner by either the Dominion Alliance or beaurocrats of O:tawa.A shorttime ago they spoke out on the license question, ard now the Northwest Assembly has unanimously passed a resolution in favor of using the ballot at elections.This privilege, it will be remembered, was strenuously opposed by Sir John Macdonald, a8 with open voting the ie- turn of opponents of the Government from tbat qoarter was almost impossible.The brave men of the north though fox in number, seem quite determined 40 work out their political salvation on constitutional and democratic lines.État AN ARTICLE IN Tue GAZETTE of yester- doy contains a paragraph, which with a change of name voices public sentiment.lt is as follows the necessary change of name heing made: \u201cThere is a very general belief that the enquiry in the McGreevy ecandal merely lifted the corner of the veil which hides the corruption practiced during the last ten years at Ottawa, and a general anxiety prevails on the part of the pnblic to ltarn the whole truth and the real -cherac:er of the men tv whom the management of their affairs was entrusted.\u201cThe expenditure upon public works from all acccuuts especially requires to be gone into, fur judging the whole by the grains of fact which have come ous a perfect eink of iniquity appears to \u201chave existed in this departmant.\u201d -¢nly other amendment to the paragraph The tt at enggests itself at once ia the inclusion of several other departments, part uisrly Railways and Canals, Post.«fee al Interior THE PRINCIPLE OF LIBERTY INVOLVED.The trickery of the Tory party iu seizing all the offices in the Quebec Government, and thus obtaining all the infla- ence of the Provincial treasury aud patronage on their side for the local election, has brought them a probable accession of support that will require all the energy and courage of the Liberal party to combat It is as if in the midst of a closely contested battle the opposite party should seize our principal batteries and turn our own gans against us, Such a piece of strategy in warfare would recsive a meed of praise, 88 it would betoken both good generalship and gallant fighting.In the political | campaign we are now fighting the straining of the Provincial constitution under the direction of Federal leaders isan act of treachery that deserves reprehension.It was never calculated by the founders of federation that Lieut.- Governors of provinces, who are not in any way representative men, should be raised to the position of prdvincial despots whenever they choose to exert their autocratic powers, By transferring the government to the minority of the Hos Mr.Angers necessitated an appes\u2019 to the people and practically retains tre reins of power in his own hands.What a farce the representation of the majority of the people becomes in.such circumstances.Liberals must organize to protect their hard earned liberties.This battle is becoming one not between persons but principles and must be fought out on those grounds.The liberties our patriotic ancesters wrenched from the unwilling bands of kings must not be tamely surrendered to a mere puppet of the federal ministry.\u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 THE CHARGE AGAINST HON.JAMES M'SHANE.In hotly contested elections a short memory is sometimes quite a useful addition to a ready tongue, Whenthe sole object is to blacken an opponent, half truths and suggestions are often more effectual than well argued statements, and no mere partizan politician need trouble to look to the other side, or even to take facts into considerstion.Throw enough dirt and some of it will be sure to atick is the guiding rule, and in the heat of discussion much latitade is allowed to extempore utterances.But when the same subject is taken up by editorial writers, we expect ftom them some show of adherence to facts and a better memory as to details.Our evening contemporary to whom the Hon.James McShane appears to have been for some time a special \u201cbete noire\u201d indulges in a very venomous attack on that gentleman in reference to the ex- tenditure on the Parliament buildings.It accuses him of reckless extravagance, of ordering work without contracts and without the authorization of his colleagues, and hints at grave suspicion of boodling in conpection therewith.Now in thie matter tte answer is plain and clear, at all events to those who are honest enough to turn their memory back to tte time when the Mercier Government assumed office.It will be remembered that anent this very building contract there were grave charges against the previous ministry of \u201creckless extravagance\u201d and hints of dishonesty, and it was with great reluctance that the new ministers found themselves COMPELLED TO TAKE OVER AND CONTINUE THE CONTRACTS ENTERED INTO BY THEIR PREDECESsors.This is the whole case in a nutshell.The Hon.James McShane, as Minister of Pablic Works, was obliged to fulfil obligations entered into by his predecessor, and this Parliament building was one of them.There were no tenders to ask for, simply because all work was already agreed for, and hence no necessity to obtain the authorization of his collesgues.Every detail of the werk was already mapped out for him, and if there was extravagance or reck- leseness the fault lies not with Mr.Mc- Shane, but with his Tory predecessor in office.Mr.McShane, it will be remembered, burried forward certain portions of the contract with all his might, but that was in the interests of the poor bardworking men of Quebec, who at that t'me were suffering greatly for want of employment, The work had to be done, and by hurrying it forward he was epabled to benefit many poor tamilies.If there is Any further charge against that gentleman we should like to s3e it better formulated, and he himself wili be first to challenge an impartial enquiry.\u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 PERSONAL AND PERTINEN-.An Atlanta souvenir spcon has the head of Henry W.Grady etched in the bowl.Fortunately for the fame of the distinguished Georgian

heard of the \u201cmoral sense\u201d of Ontario.Qiekee might be bad, Nova Scotia might be a community on sale, but Ontario was the redeeming province of the Dominion.Give Ontario a chance of expressing her opinion on corrupticn in high places and such a note would be sounded as would astonish the parasites, whose ways had been merely suspected.Well; a constituency 1n Ontario has been given a chance, and what is the result.The constit- uency-\u2014North Lacark\u2014declares foragoy- ernment which has made extortion a science and corruption its rule of life.The answer, perbaps, of those who have Leen lecturing Quebec, will ba thas North Lanark is a Tory constituency, snd that half the electors are in somes way or another connected with the Rosa- mond mills, of which the successful candidate is proprietor, In other words, it is only Tories who approve of Lange- vin-McGreevyism.But it is these game gentry who are so loud in their denunciations of Mr.Pacaud and others in Quebec.What are the scandals of Quebec compared to those of Ottawa.In the case of the Dominion Government boodling the resources of the languege have been taxed to conceal, excuse, and generally pailiate the doings which have brought disgrace upon Canada.In the case of Quebec there same excusers have foamed witk anger.Ontario\u2019s Tory virtue could notstand Mr, Pacand, bot it hurrabs for Mr.Cochrene, Sir Hector Langevin, and the crowd ot boodlers that have surrounded them and who would like nothing better than to be able to silence the criticism which there acts have evoked.Who can blame the French of Quebec if they declar- that they will not be dictated to by the Tories of Ontario.Who can wonder u they say, let these people claanse their owru Lands before tbey hold them up in pious hcrror a; ue.The men they support refused to allow spy ecquiry into the Section B.matter, though all the world knows that its iniquity exceeded the combined offences ot Quebec.They did their utmost to whitewash Sir Hector Langevin, though the wrongdoings at Quebec pale before the systematic plundering that for years has permeated the department at Ottawa.They applaud tke high handed action of the Lieutenant-Governor of Quebec, and tue dissolution of the Assembly without the advice of the men supporied by that Assembly, bat they are horrified at the suggestion that Lord Stanley should have dissolved Parliament when the stagnant mass of corruption wes exposed at Ottawa.Iniquity is not to be excused either at Quebec or Ottawa.but the North Lanark .electicn should silence the Ontario critics of French Canadian depravity.Ontario bas claimed the monopoly ot virtue, and it would seem that the Tories of that province imagine they should be allowed a monopo.v of vicious practices.If ans- thing 18 calculated to make people luok with forgiving eyes upon what has been done by Mr.Pacaud it would be the hypccritical yelis of the Ontario Tories who can tind nothing wrong in the rottenness of Ottawa, but hasten on tue first opportun'ty to set their approving teal upon the snug impostors who de- \u2018end it.And it will not be forgotten that Lt.Governor Augers and a number of the men he Las called to his council are the sworn allies and in some cases puppets ot the men at Ottawa, who are declared by the virtuous Tories of North Lanark to be free from blame, and that their antecedents give no reason to suppose that they are bet'er than their Oatarlo brethren at Ottawa.The western Tories Leed a new cry; let them shout, \u2014 Down with French boodling, that privilege is ours.No doubt there will be others who intended to vote against Mercier, and now will not, besides yours truly, A VOTER.Montreal, Jan.2, 1892.Leaf by leaf the roses fall; _ Une by one our

You would know, to look at them, that they didn't belong to the first class,\u201d said one young girl recently, speaking of some others.\u201cWho does?\u201d said her wiser mother.\u201cWhy, we do, don't we?\u2019 asked the daughter.\u2018Don\u2019t we belong to the upper classes?\u201d \u201cWhat do you mean by the upper classes?\u201d asked the mother again, after the Socratic fashion of dialogues.\u201cWhat constitutes the upper class\u2014\u2014the upper classes?\u201d \u201cWhy, 1 don\u2019t know.Power, wealth, birth, education, and all that.\u201d \u2018Have we, you and I, this household, very much power?Have we any power?You know we have no wealth to speak of.And as for birth, we were born as well\u2014 that is, au well made\u2014as other people, bat to better,\u201d said the mother.\u201cOh, 1 don\u2019t mean that,\u201d returned the oung daughter.\u201cI mean of high descent, rom old families.\u201d \u201cOh! Oue of your grandfathers was a small dry-goods dealer; one was a carpenter.There was a shoemaker among mine sand a minister.Your father {had a small farmer and a doctor for his grandfathers.\u201d \u201cDo you mean to say that we don't belong to the first class?\u201d exclaimed the horrified little miss.\u201cNot according to your ideas.\u201d \u201cWhere do we belong, then?\u201d \u201cLet me see.1 should say\u2014looking at it from your point of view\u2014possibly to the \u2018 fifth class.\u201d \u201cOh, what do you mean, mamma?\u201d \u201cYou said the possession of power was & mark of the first class, I believe.Then, I suppose, we might say the President of the coumtry pro tem., command- er-in-chief of the army and navy, and his advisers, the men in every responsible and powertul position, made up the first class, or the second class, as you spoke of wealth, there would be the billionaires, the plutocrats, the men who live in palaces, and own whole railroads und cities and mines, We don\u2019t do anything of the kind, I think.For the next, I suppose you would put the educated people, the professors and scholars and authors\u2014those who have no place, no wealth you see,\u201d \u201cBut, mamma\u2014\u201d \u2018For the fourth class we should have the people of moderate riches, the country bank residents and their like, people worth a ittle less than a million.e are worth a great deal less.So for the fifth class, it really seems to me as if under your view ef things, which leads to this specification, we ourselves belong about te the fifth class.Decently educated, just comfortably aituat- ed as to income, if there were such a thin, as à middle class in America, the most o us would belong to it.But, thank Heaven! 4 there are no arbitrary class distinctions here; we are all Just humanity together.\u201d We repeat the brief conversation because it serves to show the futility of attempting to separate the people composing our commonwealth into anything like an aristocracy, a middle class, and am oi polloi.No one will ever pretend to deny that certain individuals are superior to certain otlier individuals in acquirement, in intellect, in goodness; but when it comes te planting whole classes en platforms and stages of eminence, the idea is constantly to be reprolated, and no American mother | can allow her children to make such dis- ; tinctious, uncorrected.Such classification of our citizens into upper and middle and lower tiers, once well established in the popular mind, would help to make it easy or the next step\u2014a monarchy upheld among these classes by the eppression and taxation and restriction and resulting ig norance of the people.The children of the ordinary mother in America may in such an order of things by possibility be found near the throne; they may, by more probability, be found with the peasantry, or with the armies that will keep the peasantry crushed so close to earth as te be no more than clods\u2014anywhere but where they can shgre or help the progress of humanity upward; as to-day, it is to poped, havipg a chance to do so, they do.And ip a cquatry foinded upon the doctrine of equality in rights, » country whose ingfitutions have raised to personal sovereignty those whe would be ecrÎs and peasants had their grandfathers of one or two removes remained in the old lands, a country whose institutions have lifted women to altitude that is allowing her to display and use the Best there is in her, it ill becomes any woman or the daughter of any woman to speak of any of her countrymen or countrywonien as of the | middle class.\u2014Harper\u2019s Bazar.An Improvised Penwiper, If you wish to improvise a penholder, here is a simple way: Take a piece of news- per, roil it between the palm of your Band and the surface of the table until it is of a suitable size;

of Civilization on Christianity.The following is an abstract of the lecture given by Mr, B F.Underwood at the Lyceum Theatre on Sunday evening.Subject, \u201cInfluence of Civilization on Christianity.\u201d Civilization is a very complex product, into which was entered a multitade of mental and moral forces.Re.igion is one of the sentiments of the mind and one of the institutions of society.There is the universal element ot religion, common to all religious systems, and the special elements of each system.The character of a religious belief and its manner of manifestation are dependen upon the intellectual and moral condi tion of the worshippers.Whether a religion shall yield good results depends, firet, upon the elementajthat compose it and second, upon the social evil and at- mospbere in which the seed is planted.Christianity is not the same in England and Abysinnis.The moral teachi ngs of the New Testament were a protest AgalNEY Jewish formalism and pagan worldiltess, Bat moral precepts never \u201converted the Roman Empire.Paul's theology, elaborated by Augnstin, became the Christianity of the Church.Confronted by paganism it bent to and assimulated pagan beliefs and rites and ritualism, and spread by representing the old faith under a new name.The religion became what it had to be in its pecaliar environment on penalty of extinction.The unity of the empire was transferred to tbe church, which for centaries held together the divided elements of the empire.During the middle ages there was general ignorance in the church, monasticism, contempt for letters, &c.With the revival of learning, with study of Greek and Roman literature, with discoveries, inventions, secular ambitions and pursuits the world advanced ; independence of thought, the Reformation, science, great worldly enterprise followed.Men took thought for the morrow, tried to accumulate worldly possess:oas, avoided poverty, became self-reliant; ceased to believe they were liable tolose their souls by too much love of wile and chiidren, or by having too fine homes ; theclogical beliefs have become adjusted to secular conceptions of life.Theology has become modified.Men have become too humane to believe in the damnation of infants, or in the foreordination of millions to eternal torment.Revision is the order of the day even among Presbyterians.The forces of civilizat oa have modified the teaching of Paul, Augustine and Calvin, have emphasized the primary value of the ethical elements of all religions, including those of christianity, while ignoring whatever is practically absolate In these elements, such as the teachings of the New Testament in regard to submission to evil, the duty of servants, slaves, the subordination of women,the duty of obeying the powers that he has from God, etc.As with a constitution, so with a religious system, when the people have advanced beyond it, whatever is outgrown is ignored, or jis interpreted so as to har monize with the intellectual and moral demands of the time.Religious systems, like governments, are evoiutions and are determined by intellectual moral and social conditions in which they prevail.leer.If there ever wae a specific for any one complaint, then Cartar\u2019s Little Liver Pills are a specific for sick headache, aad every woman should know this Oa!y one pill a dose.Try them.mse Other sufferers from cold in the head and catarrh have been promptly cured, why no: you?Capt.D.H.Lyon, manager and proprie- ior of the C.P.R.and R.W.&O, car forry, Airescott, Ont, says: I used Nasal Balm for a prolonged case of cold in the head.Two applications effected a complete cure in less thao 24 hours.I would not take $190 for my bottle of Nasal Balm ifI could not replace it, PAPINEAU ROAD MURDER.JOSEPH PARON CLUBBED TO DFATH {BY PARTIES UNKNOWN, \u2014\u2014 He Was Found Dylog by a Policeman vn New Year\u2019s Night and Died Yesterday Morning at the Hospital, tr At 10:30 on New Year\u2019s night, while on his way home, Sub-Constable Cna:- renter was told that à man was lying in Papineau-road, drunk or dead.Ha immediately went there and found a man in a sitting position near the gatter, The man had his mouth open, had several bruises in his face and was hatless.Hs left eye was badly swollen and closed.There was a large cut on bis head and considerable blocd on his neck.Hs was eenseless The constable thought the man was dead, as he could feel no pulse beat or discern his breath.He at once ran for acab and had the man taken to No.3 Station.Sergeant Chocquette, who was in charge, received the sick maa aud telephoned for Dr.Bouchard.he doctor arrived shortly afterwards, put several stitches in the man\u2019s scalp and applied restoratives, but with no effect.1t was thought the man was suffering from the effects of liquor.The reserve map, Auge, at the station narsed the sick man all night In the morning it was found he was unable to move and he was taken to Notre Dame Hospital.At 6 o'clock Yesterday meruing he died, being unconscious frem the time the officer found him His name is Joseph Paron, and he lived?in Outarlo-street.One of the sad features of the case is that he leaves a wife and four smail children and the wife ig now about to be confined, Coroner Jones enpanelled & jury yesterday afternoon.The father-in-law or deceaced deposed that Peron left his house early on New Year's night, under the influence of liquor.The officer who found the man gave evidence substantially as above, Dr.Laberge asked for an adjournment until the evening to allow him to make & post mortem examination.In the evening he gave the result of his investigation to the effect that he found the skull fractured, which caused hemorrhage of the brain,resulting in death, the result of a blow from a ciub received on the left temple, The jury then returned a verdict of \u201cmurdered by parties unknown.\u201d \u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 PERSONAL POINTERS, n°

in this city from Chicago and the towns adjacent thereto about 75 strong, healthy men who had been induced to leave their homes and seek new fields in Honduras, They were in charge of Mr, Perry, of the Perry Land Company, of Chicago, and were bound for Patuxa, Spanish Honduras, whers the Perry Land Company had acquired an immense tract by concession from the Government, conditional on the

appreciative audiences that has ever filled the old favorite theatre.Tue attraction was Gus Hill's World of Novelties, which is one of the best organizations that has visited Montreal for some time, What tended also to pack the house to its fullest capacity was the fact that the M.A A.A.had arranged to attend in a body and had chartered the whole of the orchestral seats.These however turned out to be insufficient to accommodate the number of members who continued to come flowing in till there was hardly standing room for them.Every available spot was used and the entertainment was not only enjoyed thoroughly but loudly applauded from time to time and the encores were numerous.The great attraction was, of course, Gus il\u2019s marvellous performance, 8 = SUN sk SN, CN oN VE with 30, 50,

the heavy clubs is really charming to witness, The members of the M.A.A.A, had a lesson in this particular I'ne of athletica last night that they are not likely soon to forget.In view of the compliment paid to him by the club, he prolonged the display to show the members that he possessed wonderful powers of endurance as well as masterly skill, Of the other members of the organization Miss Maude Beverly deserves especial praise for the artistic rendition of the songs put down to her account.Messre.Fields and Hanson delighted the audience with the varieties of their instrumental music, the concertina playing of the former being greatly admired.Al Reeves, on the banjo,was a great success, and Fred.8.Huber and Miss Kitty Allyne kept the audience im roars of laughter in their original act entitled * Wanted, a Manager.\u201d There were no intermissions, no delays, and for two hours and a half the big crowd were in ecstacies of delight.W.A.Mason and Bobby Ralston wera very amusing in their act known as \u201cOne and a Half.\u201d Geo, Wilson's Minstrels.The old time favorite Geo.Wilson will be seen at the Queen\u2019s to-morrow.The Nashville Banner says among other things, the following : George Wilson\u2019s name sesms still to be a talisman, at least in Nashville.The top gallery and parquette -has each its allotted tenantry whenever he chooses to come, and the enjoyment bestowed is mutually rece.ved.He has not, perhaps, even in his palmier daya pleased an andience more thoroughly than he did last mnigit.George is urimly grotesque.His humor, characterized by a gushing young novel.18t, would doubtless be defined as bananaesque~\u2014which, being translated would mean tropical, warm, genial.There is more volubility than versatility in this knight of the charred cork, but he wears well, and this is perhaps the most favorable criticism that can be passed on a player.During the summer he ran amuck on some new business which he has brought along and it took well.Besides this he garnered up a lot of minstrel talent in the company with him of considerably better quality than lart year.He do 8 not have to furnish all the fun as hereto- ore, The performance was a good all-round minstrel entertainment, affording very hearty enjoyment to she audience.ws?Clara Morris at the Queen\u2019s, Clara Morris, who will be at the Queen's next week, says an exchange, stands in the very front rank of her profeesion as an actress, Particularly in those roles that call for a display of intense feeling is she most successful.Her fame rests not upon any one play, for in Camille, Article 47, Miss Multon, Odet'e, Renee de Moray and others the same degree of marked success has been achieved by ber.She begins a week\u2019s engagement at the Queen's Theatre next Monday evening, appearing for the first time in Montreal.The repertoire for the week will be as follows: Monday and fhureday evenings and Saturday matinee, SBardou\u2019s Odette; Tuesday and Friday evenings, Camille; Wednesday \u2018 and Baturday evenings, Renee de Moray.The only matinee occurs Saturday afternoon.A large and exceptionally strong company surrounds her.- ' GENERAL
