Morgue After a Chequsred Career, Paris, Jan.6.\u20141he whole city was surprised to-day to learn that * Mother Butterfly \u201d is lying at the Morgue, for she was a character, who, in one way and another, had managed to make herself very well known.She was the daughter of a Prefect under the Second Empire, who educated ber and her brother, his only children, in the best possible manner, and who, after spending his money with a lavish hand, died absolutely penniless, in can- ! sequence of his extravagance.The daught-r went on the stage, and became notorious at the A!cazar d\u2019Niver, when Theresa ran it.She was taken off the stage by a very rich American, who, after making ber his companion on his journeys all over the world, and spending a fortune on her, quarrelled with her, and left berin Philadelphia without a cent in her pocket.Bhe managed, however, to return to France, and then went to live with her brother, shortly after which she fell in love with an actor and eloped with him, taking 10,000 francs which belonged to her brother.With this sum they started a circus, the lover doing the equestrian act.Eventually the circus was burned out and \u201cMere Papillon\u201d had a narrow escape from a terr.b.e death.\u2018TLen she was taken ill and finally became insane, when she was pat into an asylum, wbere she spent along time.After recovering per reason ehe returned to Paris and obtained a position at the Grande Magasins du Louvre as à saleswoman, and she also began a career as a fortupe-teller, in which role she attracted all Parise.Ste was so skilfal in this that she drew customers from all clssees, even the richest, and a line of private carriages was often to be seen starding in front of ber house.Bhe made so much money at this that she became reckless and took to drink.Thus she dropped out of sight and was last beard of as a frequent visitor of the Cbateau-Rouge, in the Rue Galande, which was once the palace of Louis XV, and is now the nightly resort of criminals and drunkards of a low type.There she used to tell anybody\u2019s fortune for two sous and a glass of absinthe.She died three days ago from the effects of drink, in a squalid den 1n the Quartier de 1a Villette, where she lived.1he morgue was crowded to-day with all sorts of people who were elbowing each other in their eager desire to see the bloated remains of \u201cMere

for circulating Ninilistic manifestoes.The mortality among the troops in the western provinces is heavy.The Government finds difficulty in supplying them with an adequate quantity of provisions.Loxpox, Jan.6.\u2014A corresponden m aking a tour of the famine districts of Toula writes: The wealthier land-owners keep away from their estates, leaving the entire burden of helping the shiftless peasantry upon the poorer gentry, who are little better off than the starving.Careful lists that have been prepared ot the stores of each family show many in- Stances where a peasant with six children has only 180 poods of grain to last through the winter.\u201cThere is a general fear that the famine will recur, leaving Russia in a state of national bankruptcy.In the mean time aid from the zemstvos is visionary.The chief reliance is placed in the Red Cross Society.\u201cAt the first meeting of the local branch of the society it was disclosed that only the sum of £110 had been subscribed for a district having 83,000 population verging ou starvation.Many million roubles have gone into the coffers of the central committees of the society in 8t.Petersburg and Moscow, and

Wanzer Sewing Machine Company\u2019s premises on Barton-strest.The building is a two story brick structure and extends along Barton-street for a full block between Mary and Elgin-streets.It covers a big area in the rear and has a large two story addition facing on Elgin-street.It a'so extends down Mary-street for about 200 feet, and is altogether one of the argest factories in the city.In the building was a quantity of value able machinery; ago oils, unfinished ma chines and a large quantity of lumber.The premises have been unoccupied for some montbe,Mr.Wanzer | & :ing become financially embarrassed, and unable to carry on the business.The Toronto Permanent Loan ard Mortgage Company had a mortgage of $140,000 on.the plant and machinery, which was forecloged some time ago, and as the Loan Com- papy was unable to sell the place to advantage, they have kept it shut up, Abcut half-a-dozen men have been working in the factory lately, putting the finishing touches on a few machines, but none of the men appear to have been in the vicinity when the fire occurred.As far as can be ascer:ained thé fire originated in the japanning room, and before being discovered it had secured & good hold.From the first it was inevitable the building, with its valuable machinery, etc.was doomed, and the efforts of the fire department were confined to keeping the fire under control.All the upper story of the main building tacing on Barton-street, as well as a portion of the ground flay, was destroyed, and hardly anything of an inflammable nature on the second flat was left uninjured.A yortion of that part of the factory fronting on Elgin-street, in which was stored a quantity of lumber and other material, was sayed.The building and plant are insured for a large amount and all the principal insurance c,mpanies represented here are interested, but the various amounts cannot be ascertained this evening.The total loss will probably reach $100,060.\u2014\u2014R\u2014- Addresses For the

THE PALO ALTO BREEDING FARM.Senator Stanford Talks About His Famous Horses\u2014Suwnol and His Lameness.OUR WINTER PASTIMES.teens The Montreal Snowshoe Club Tramp\u2014Cres- cent Club At Home\u2014A Loca! Pool Match ~\u2014Crescent B.seball Club\u2014§lavin Turns Out to be a Bluffer\u2014New Boa! for Har vard\u2014The Wrestling Match, ment Senator Stanford said the other day : \u201cWhen I began breeding blooded horses I commenced studying the anatomy of the horse until at the end I could take the skeleton apart and put it together with the accuracy of a skilled watchmaker who deals with the mechanism of a timepiece, In my studies ofthe anatomy of the horse I soon discovered where Lis greatest powers were, the uses he made of his muscles, and the secret wLy one horse was capable of greater speed than some other horse.\u201cAs I studied and pondered and experimented as the years went by I became impressed with the fact that extreme speed came from three things \u2014 viz.: breeding, physical conformation, and will power, or what is more properly called nerve force.To begin with, it did not take me long to appreciate the fact that cold blood did not produce speed; hence as soon as I was able to pall myself together and fairly get my bearings Ibegan tolay deep the foundations of my breeding stud on an oriental basis, and am every year eliminating from my establishment as far as circumstances will permit all traces of cold blood wherever it has crept in in the far past.But it must not be presumed that I am not extremely critical in the selection of thoroughbred mares.I long since realized that there never was a really great horse that did not have a dam that also possessed great qualitie:.Our fathers, unfortunately for the breed of American horses, argusd differently.They held that the sire was everything, the dam scarcely anything of value except to bear and suckle the foal.Now, I early recognized the fallacy of the proposition, and in so doing Palo Alto occupies the high rank it does as a breeding establishment, I selecting a thoroughbred breeding mare In judge largely by the shape of the head and the expression of the eye.1f the head and eye do not suit me, although the conformation and breeding be perfect, I pass her by.For, although a horse does not trot with his bead, yet unless he has a head he cannot Fr 0 Talking of Sunol the Palo Alto owner said: \u201cI never could discover the causa of her lameness.She was carefully examined and the only thing that proseat- ed itself to the eye was a bunch the size of à pea on the inside of her rigat hind leg.On account of her lameness we bad to work her very carefully; in fact, never did get herin shape for her best effort, which is equal to about 2:05 or 2:06.It has been said that Sanol is a delicate mares that she has a frail constitution, little vitality, etc.This is all nonsense.She is a powerful animal when you come to examine her; wonderfully muscled; great wide chest, and possessed of loins that betoken marvelous strength.It is her greyhound build thatimpresses superficial observers that she is delicate.\u201d \u201cIs it true that Dame Winnie, her dam, could show speed at the trot?\u201d \u201cYes.In fact all of my thoroughbred mares could trot.Why, do you know that it was the speed shown by Palo Alto\u2019s dam at the trot that led me to buy her ?My man Hovey saw a boy ride her by his hotel when in Kentucky one day while he (Hovey) was standing on the piazza.She showed such spead at the trot be called after him, and after looking herover and finding how she was bred bought he r.\u201d res \u2018Will Not Let Up on Him.\u201cIt bas been presumed that because Palo Alto wears the stallion crown that we are now going to let upon him and relegate him to the stud,\u201d says Stanford.\u201cThis is a mistake.Just previous to leaving for Washington I had him carefully examined and found that the seat of his lameness is 1n his right foot, the result of a contracted heel.With proper shoeing and restoration of full frog pressure I am satisfied that he will in the intervening months fally recover.Next summer, after a brief season in the stud, he will be sent to lower his record of 2:08%, and I am satisfied that only 2:06 will stop him if he has four well feet un which to stand.Why, if he can trot a nile in 2:08$ with only three well feet what ought he not accomplish with four good ones 7\u201d ms TURF, Jookeys and Trainers Looking for Lleonses for Next Season, The Board of Control has announced that the following jockeys and trainers have applied for licenses for next season: Jockeys\u2014Marty Bergen, Murphy, Garrison, Doggett, John and James Lamb- ley, Midgely, Wall, Goodall and McDer- mott.Trainers\u2014Allan, Cahill, Gilpin\u2019 McCreery, Pincus, Harding,Rogers,Jay ne, and Durham.As the date upon which these applications were made has not been made public, the announcement gives no indication of the side which the trainers and jockeys named will take in the present racing fight.Many of the applications were forwarded before war was declared.A Plot of Jockeys, Aft the very opening of the season in Vienna last spring it was observed that the favorites were being beaten in almost every race, Famous horses, 1n the best possible condition and ridden by the ablest jockeys, would be beaten by the rankest of unknown outsiders.In the first 50 races the favorite only won in five.In all the others both first and sscond places were taken by horses almost unknown, against which overwhelming odds had been bef.Ap parently there was no explanation for it.But when it went on, week after other confederates outside.Before every race they would meet, in some coffee house usually, and arrange all the details, which horses should win and which should lose.By varying the order from day to day in which the horses came to the winning-post, they were able to keep up a show of honest riding.Î The outside confederates, of course, did the betting, Some of them would bet against each other, to divert suspicion.But they would, in general, bet against the horses that they knew were to lose, and on those that had been appointed to win.After the race they met again, and the spoils were equally divided all around.Sometimes as high as $200,000 was cleared in a single day and the plander cf the whole season must amount to some millions, Baron Uechrecht, one of the directors of the Vienna Jockey Club, lost so heavily that he had to sell out his stables, ostensibly, and really too, in utter disgust, but more particularly to raise funds to pay his debts.Herr Von Pecby, another well-known director, is in the same scrape, having lost, it is said, nearly half a million dollars.One of their colleagues, however, who is the head of one of the oldest and noblest Magyar families, has fared much better.All through the season he wa3 obser v- ed to be betting heavily against his own horses, whenever they were favorites, and to be putting his money on comparatively obscure beasts.}is winnings are estimsted at some bundreds of thousands ct dollars.He, too, bas now closed out his stables, Lut it is believed that he has done so only for the sake of freeing bimself, if possible, from suspicion, says a correspondent of the Philadelphia Press.A number of the jockeys havd been suspended and otherwise punished.Two of them, the best known and most ac- compl shed riders in all Europe, have been irrevocably expelled, so that they can never ride again on any reputable course in any European courtry.They will not be paupers, however, for their stealings must amount to hundreds of thousands of dollars.They bave been living in princely style and spending money like millionaires.One of them is known to have lavished in gems and other gifts more than $60,000 upon a woman within a single week.More than a month ago action was taken by the jockey club against these men and it was hoped that thus the wrath of the public would be appeased.But it was not.It became known that members and ever directors of the club were suspected of complicity with the jockeye, and that only their exalted social rank saved them from conviction and exposure.This made the public simply furious, and the demand has been made that the whole corrupt institution be swept away.mr Twenty-One Years Ago.A glance over the racing record of 1871 shows the names of many horses and mares that have since become fam: us.Longfellow and Harry Bassett, and Helmbold, who came to Canada.Alarm and Monarchist are among the name frequently seen, while Salina, the dam of Salvator, Nellie James, dam of Jack of Hearts, and other mares whose progeny bave won fame and fortune since then, are recorded on the pages of the bock.Two names that wculd not call for special mention because of turf prowess, althongh both were fair performers, ate Judge Curtis and Judge Durell, both sons of Lexington.Both came to Canada and became famous here.The former is a sire of many good driving horses and hunters of the highest quality, wbile Judge Darell sired a horse called Texas Jack, who took a record of better than 2:30 at the pacing gait.Texas Jack has five of his get in the 2:30 list already, and mors are coming._\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 AQUATICS, Still Another 46-feoster Ordered by a New York Yachtsman, Bristow, Jan.6\u2014The Herreshoffs are overrun with orders for new boats, and the most interesting bit of news in this announcement is the fact that still another racing 46-footer has been ordered by some New York yachtsman, who has given a contract to the famous yacht builders for the best racer of that class they can produce.Several other yachtsmen have corresponded with thege designers with a view to building 46-footers, and it is expected that when next season's yachting begina there will be a whole fleet of ulorianas contesting for honors.The announcement thai the Harre- shoffs are to build a second new racing 46-footer will be received with great pleasure by all yachtsmen.If creates a new and greater interest in the class, and basides this Naval Architect \u201cNat\u201d Herreshoff will be put to a severer test than any designer who has ever preceded him.His present boats are quite near high line, and his best ideas of originality, both in design and construction, will be called into play.It is certainly no small job to outbuild the new Gloriana.Of course the designers refase any information as to the dimensions of the new 46-footer, and they also refuse to give the name of her owner.It may be Commodore Morgan, J.Roger Maxwell, Royal Phelps Carroll, or Mr.Foster, who formerly owned the 46-footer Choctaw.It is known that Mr.Ziegler, who owned the old sloop Thistle, has the \u201cracing bee\u201d in his bonnet.Perhaps William C.Langley and Joe Ellsworth may be the owner and skipper.Mr.Herreshoff, when asked if the skipper had been selected, replied that he had not, In answer to the question, \u201cIs Capt.John Barr the man?\u2019 he replied: \u201cNot that we know of, but we think very well of him, We do not know whom the owner has selected.\u201d It will be known within & month whether the fleet of 40-footers will receive any more additions from the Her- reshoff yards nextseason.With regard to the 40-foot class, Joun B.Herreshoff said: \u201cMy opinion is that the 40 footer will never be the racing class again.The jib and mainsail 30 and 35 footers will o the racers in the smaller c'assas, and 46 1a go strongly established that it is bound to live, because the strongest yachtsmen in the country are in it.\u201d The Herreshoffs have orders for 25, 30 and 35 footers for the coming season.\u2018The latter boats will be raced on Lake Erie.A 25-footer, very similar to the boat going to Scotland, will be raced in New York and Newport waters, and, as her owner is a good racing man, there will probably be lots of sport, A jib and mainsail boat has been ordered by a Boston yachtsman.It is to be hoped that the Valkyrie will come over next season and have a \u201c clinch\u201d with our new 46-footers.For the Valkyrie to allow the latest 46-footers their time she would have to week, and hundreds of thousands of dollars were being lost by the betting | public, suspicion bacame active.It came out that an elaborate con- apiracy had been formed, comprising pearly all the jockeys and a number of » show a good turn of speed.A race ovar a windward and leeward course, say of ten miles, would be most interesting.It would also be a good thing for the Titania, Katrina and Shamrock to take a band in the 1 extGoelet cup race.Many TRE MONTREAL HERALD doubt if the Titania could give the 46- footers time allowance.Such g race would furnish an immense amount of data and information.Mr.Herreshoff would like very much to bnild a 70-footer under the British rule and send her across to take part in next season's races.The Famous Burgess Cutter Pappoose Sold te Mr, Mott of Oswego, New York, Jan.6.\u2014The famous Burgess cutter Pappoose, which Was practie cally the pioneer of the 40-foot class, which developed last year into the 46- footers, has been sold by Mr.Gailbraith, her owner, to Mr.Mott of Oswego, N, Y.It is said that Mr.Mott has purchased her for the express purpose of beatiog the Fife cutter Tama, which was built at Wintringham'\u2019s yard, Bay Ridge, in 1890, for Mr.Aleen Ames of Oswego.The Tama has been signally successful on the lakes, and has won every race 1n which she has started.As she is the more modern and powerful craft, it is doubtful .f the Pappoose can defeat her, although she will undoubtedly give her a good race, + ROWING.Davy to Build a New and Impreved Boat : for Harvard.CAMBRIDGE, Jan, 6 \u2014Davy, the boat builder, has already started on the frame of the shell for this year\u2019s Harvard 'Varsity crew.The lines of last years boa will be reproduced, but there will bs several new features, the principal r-sult of which will be to make the shall lighter.The first point where a new idea comes in is in the space between the gunwale and the \u201crising.\u201d This piece of weod, which is parallel with the gunwale, usually stops at the cockppit, but in the new plan it is carried to the end of the boat.Then the gunwale is to be made five pounds lighter.A thin brace is to be fixed across the square spaces and next to the ribs of the craft, which will more than make up the loss in strength.The gain, naturally speaking, will be in the greater stiffness of the craft, which is in itself a great consideration, and also will allow for a thinnerstraintkan would otherwiss be needed.Here is where the big reduction in weight comes.This difference is expected to be between fifteen and twenty pounds, which, with the saving on the gunwale and risin., will bring the weight of the boat to about 230 pounds.[Ibis probably will be the lightest eight-oared shell ever made, em BABEBALL, The Make-up of the Twelve Clabs in the New League, New York Journal: Now that the baseball war is a thing of the past, much interest is manifested in the make-up of the 12 clubs which will form the great league.President N.E.Young and Zach Phelps, the committee appointed to assign unsisgned players, have finished their labors, Several changes will be made, however, and the exact make-up of the teams will not be known until after the coming meeting to be held in| this city.Danny Richardson is assigned to Washington, but the New York Clab will make a hard fight to retain their old second baseman.Connor, Clark, Whistler, Walch, Coughlin, Burrell and Glasscock will not again be geenin New York uniforms, and it is doubtful if Westervelt will, The list assigned New York by the distribution committee is as follows: Catcher, Ewing, Boyle; pitchers, Rusie, King, Sharrott, J.Ewing, Sullivan and VanZant; shortstop, Fuller; third base, Lyons; outfielders, O'Rourke, Gore and Tiernan; Bassett, substitute.BB It will be seen that first and second vase positions are vacant.Captain Ewing or Boyle will cover that position unless a first-class man can be securad.If1t is decided to play Ewing permanently in that position, then \u201cKing\u201d Kelly, of Boston, will probably be secured to help out in the catchers\u2019 department.In Brooklyn the faces of several old- time favorites will be missed.Ampnz the number started to go are: Caruthers, the high-salaried pitcher;Darby O\u2019Brien, the only remnant of the famous old Mets; Kinslow, Ely, J.O'Brien and Hemming.As the Bridegrooms are now arranged the list is as follows: Catchers, Daly and Dailey; pitchers, Lovett, Hart, Haddock, Terry and Foutz, firet base, Brouthers; second base, Ward; shortstop, Corcoran; third base, Joyce; outfielders, Collins, Griffin and Burne; substitute, Pinkney.Manager Mutrie is working hard to arrange his Eastern League team, to be located in this city.He has secured all the financial assistance necessary to float the club.A meeting will be held shortly, when the circuit of the new league will be made up, and then the signing of the men will begin in earnest.Crescent Baseball Club, The first annual smoking concert of the Crescent Baseball Club will be held on Wednesday evening next, January 13, in the hall, Panet street.The Crescents are the

baving any representative to meet Charlie Johnson, of Brooklyn, the authorized backer of John L.Sullivan, at The Herald office yesterday morning, brands himself ag a \u201cbluffer\u201d of the first

seductive, of a penetrating charm and enchanting grace.Her sweet youthful visage, of an alabaster white, slightly tj with pink, bore the imprint of rare distine- tion, large black eyes, shaded by lon lashes, gave her at times a grave air, whi was quickly dissipated by the smile upon her lips.A corsage garnished with jet usually decked her shapely bust, her short skirt revealed tiny feet with finely turned ankles, which more than one aristocratic senorita envied her.Her voice had à melody of exquisite purity.She sang and danced ravishingly.Not less handsome was Miguel, the youth upon whose arm Carmen was leanin ; in stature slightly above the medium, admire ably proportioned, of lofty bearing, with bright eyes and iotelligont forehead, he seeined rn to protect the noble young rl.Theyjwere slowly walking al a path bordered by orange trees and myrtles forming a terrace above the Duero, the waters of which flowed between thickly shaded banks through the Valley of Paradise.It, wax the anniversary of Carmen's birth; on this occasion Den Luis Ayelo, her father, had invited a few friends to spend the afternoon at the country residemce ho owned at the gates of Grenada.In the first rank of these friends was the Ortega family of which Miguel was the eldest son.Miguel and Carmen had grown up together.An invincible penchant had drawn one toward the other, \"For a long while a brotherly and sisterly affection had subsisted between them ; then, without their knowledge this affection had been transformed into a deep and passionate leve, but they had not as yet mutually «confessed it.f what were they talking?Of a thousand insignificant things which delighted them.Their glances were full of tenderness and they bent with confidence one toward the other.The young Spaniard experienced, for the first time, the voluptuous thrill imparted by the arm or hand of the beloved woman.And when his curly looks touched Carmon\u2019s forehead he felt \u201cin all his being an explicable, but delicious faintness.His voice, which had grown softer and more penetrating, deliciously agitated the young girl's heart.In her also the flower of love Was blooming and its perfume intoxicated her.A strange sensation, wholly new, gradually invaded her; she clung more closely to the arm of her childhoods friend.With a sudden spring their lips met, they both uttered the same exclamation; this first avowal and this first kiss sealed their betrothal.Happy and blushing, Carmen, as if to regain possession of herself, led Miguel to the edge of the terrace, where they gave themselves up to vague contemplation.Miguel and Carmen, abserbed in their thoughts, saw nothing of this splendid picture, which besides was familiar to them, nor did they admire that plain of the Vega covered with vinyards, fig trees, mulberry trees and orange trees, a vast orchard which beneath the blue sky of Andalusia, produces the effect of an immense emerald set in sapphire; they perceived not in the distance the huge masses of the Sierra Nevado bordering the horizen, casting their severe aspect over the splendors of the plain and communicating a secret languor \u201cto the soul.The two young people finally tore themselves from their reflections and re-joined their families.From that day they were happy only when together.And when they were separated they thought and dreamed but of each other.All that was not Carmen was indifferent to Miguel; all that did not concern Miguel had no interest for Carmen.This happiness lasted two months.An unforeseen catastrophe suddenly put an end to their joys and hopes; a reverse of fortune fell upen the Ortega family; it speedily found itself ruined.Carmen\u2019s father would no longer hear of his daughter\u2019s union with Miguel.But the

MORNING JAN 7 SCARCITY OF SALMON IN CANADIAN RIVERS AND ITS CAUSE.It has been the general expsrience of the lessees and owners of the fishing privileges in Canada of late that salmon have been growing more and more scarce each year.At ths majority of the rivers the fishing this year has been a failure.Thera is no longer any doubt that the cause of this growing scarcity is the constant and excessive netting of these fish on their journey from the ocean to their fresh water spawning beds.Ibstinct directs the fish when about to breed to fresh waters, where the young can be hatched under conditions favorable to survival and growth; and so strong is the instinct that once started the fish never turns back.Their habit is invariably to clogely follow the line of the shore as they ascend to the rivers in which they breed, und the ra- sult is that the perfected net appliances now in use along the shores of the lower waters are fatally effective.When one considers the great number of nets now in use, and the long shore line over which they are set at the points most favorable for their purpose, the wonder is not that salmon are now scarce in the upper waters, but that any escape sac- cessfully all the snares planted in their paths from the sea.Persons most familiar with the facts are of the opinion that unless the Dominion Government promptly adopts some decided and effective measures to enable & larger number of the fish to safely reach their spawning grounds, great danger of total extermination of the spacies will be incurred.At present all nets are supposed to be raised from six o'clock p.m.on Saturday to six o'clock a.m.on Monday of each week.But it is asserted positively by numerous and reliable witnesses that even this regulation is in many instances not complied with, The owners and lessees of the privileges believe that they are entitled to somewhat more generous treatment, and propose a petition to the Goyernment that these mets be hereafter raised during three full days and nights of each week, which shall be the same stated three days and nights for all nets.In this they ask only just consideration and fair play.The owner and lessee beside paying a large sum for his right to angle, is obliged at considerable expense to guard and protect the salmon while in fresh water.He provides employment during the fishing season for no inconsiderable number of persons, and incidentally makes a market for supplies which in the aggregate are heavy.And the proposed plan if adopted, would not in reality prejudice the interests of the net-fishermen, but in the long run actually benefit him by allowing a larger numaber of fish to safely cast their spawn, and thus increase the now diminishing supply.The sportsmen remain at the 8 8 mon streams but a comparatively short season; and no amount of angling by however expert fishermen can possibly de: plete & stream, since it 1s & well-known fact that only a small proportion of salmon can be induced to rise to a fly.Not so with the net-fisherman.Instincts keeps the ascending fish un- falteringly near the shore, and there the trapver sets his nets aud keeps them set day and night between two and three months ofeach year.If the fish escape the first met they must still encounter scores of others, some perhaps more skilfully arranged to make their captare certain.Their chance of reaching the spawning ground and perpetuating their species is infinitely small.A large part of those that do escape are either wounded or badly scarred by the nets, as any angler can attest, One important fact should be borne in mind by the authorities to whose charge the interests of the Canadian salmon rivers are entrusted, viz: The salmon always return to breed iv the same water where they fhemselves were bred, If the families native to those streams are prevented from reproducing thsir species as nature intended, they will have no successors of their kind, and the grandest fish that swims must there become extinct.Besides this evidentinterest which the governmert ought to feel to guard and preserve and perpetuate its salmon, it ought in justice to recognize the right of tlie anglers to a fair consideration for the large sums which they contribute to the revenue for their privileges.The net- fishermen pays but & nominal sum for the right to set his nets and seems to be reaping & harvest at the expense of the angler.Itis an injustice which should be remedied, and the intended petition gse:me to be a reasonable one, which should meet with favorable consideration, especially as the salmon rivers would thereby become more valuable ard retarn increased revenue to the Government from rentals.\u2014 PRECIPITATED BY A MAHATMA.Some one is either guying us with a queer parable or our correspondent is one of those strange beings who view the actions of men from a distance, and not comprehending their motives or bearing their spesch must often be puzzled by the strange contradictions they see.Our communicant, who may be chief of the Mahatmas and head centre of the theosophists, says: \u201cI was transported by the spirit, above a beautiful city full of large edifices, by the side of & magnificent river and commanded to view attentively and write down that which I saw.And looking down I beheld a great multitude who seemed to dwell in psa ce and amity together, buying and selling and working diligently.And tke crowds of gaily dressed people and the number of horses and carriages and vehicles that travelled like the wind, with puffings and snortings as if drawn by some mghity Behemoth, were all admirable to behold.After gazing attentively I observed three men whose actions attracted my regard.One was a man of rosy face and smiling mien, fall of politeness, whose wares exposed for sale brought him much custom, and who apparently rtood in high esteem with his fellow men.The other two were standing in two boxes and before each one lay a ponderous volume, which he frequently slapped with one open hand, while he made threatening motions with his other liand and shouted at the top of his voice and reviled and abused all such people as passed him by and would not stay to listen to him.And as I studied attentively and wondered what this strange scene might portend, lo! a procession of grave and reverend men appeared, headed by one bearing a chain and badge of office.And on nearing the three men, they caught the quiet, inoffeasive manby the throat, and after robbing him of all that he hed they handed him over to the torturers to be cast into prison.Then, turning to the two men who were still reviling the public, they handed over to them the plunder taken from the first man along with much ether boodle, and bowing to them reverentially passed op.Then said the spirit.Mortal, dost thou understand what thou seest?And on my answering no, he said, then I will read the riddle to thee.Behold, the city thou seest is the great city of Montreal, the pride of the Canadian Dominion.The three men to whom thy attention was particularly directed were, the one a butcher and the other two clergymen.The procession of grave men were the aldermen, headed by the mayor.The robbery and ill treatment of the butcher is known locally as the butchers\u2019 license tax, and the gift to the preachers is the tax exemption which puts 1nto the pockets of the clergy that which is squeezed out of taxation, \u2014 THE QUESTION OF BUTCH ERS\u2019 LICENSE.We have so long, and so persistently argued against all legislation in restraint of trade, and more particularly against laws enhancing the price of the necessaries of life, that we welcome the conversion to our side of the wholesale produce and provision men of this city.For the benefit of retail dealers who had taken stalls in our markets a by-law was enacted that called for a very heavy license on all non stall holders selling provisions within a certain radius of the market.It was no matter that such a law was unjust to both buyer and seller.Housekeepers might protest that they did not want to be driven in all weathers to the not over clean precincts of the nearest market so long as some trader in their own neighborhood was perfectly willing and able to supply their wants.The city fathers knew what was good for them better than they did themselves, and ihe tradesman daring enough fo supply them must pay the penalty.Want of union among the parties interested, and want of public opinion generally, enabled the City Ccuncil to carry their point against the butchers, and they were sentenced to be dragooned into submission.All this time the wholesale men had carried on their business without molestation and with a selfishness, born of an imagined security, had never lifted their voices against such an outrage.But their time came next, Having beat down the opposition of the butchers the authorities next turned attention to the wholesale produce and provision merchants, and as most of their places ef business were within the prohibited limits a rich haul seemed in prospect.A few legal documents, however, seemingly distributed at random among them as feelers, brought the wholesale men to their senses.So long as retailers alone were affected they were willing to acquiesce in any law, no matter how unjust or ridiculous, but when their own corns were trodden on they soon gave tongue, A meeting, that might be almost called an indignation meeting, was called yesterday at the Board of Trade Rooms, and a strong and united protest went out against the inigaitous by-law.Unfortunateiy the wholesale men were too selfish or too inconsistent, or, from some reason or other, unable to grasp the idea of the injustice to the public of such a law and only resisted, in so far as it affected their own particular branch, What is an in- quity in a retail storekeeper is just and proper when done by a wholesaler.That is their line of argument, and all they ask for is that the enforcement of the law shall be stayed, so as to give the counsel time to repeal it, in So far as it may affect themselves.But the public hes also an interest in the matter.They do not care five cents whether one man or one set of men are exempt from the operation of the penal law, but they do THE MCNTREA HEBALD TE, What is SEER Sp DOS h BLE YN a A Ra MORE

and it is found that the corrosion is nearly always at that point.Mention is made of the ingenious engineer, who desiring better lubrication of indicator pistons, has an internal reservoir formed in the body of the piston, so that the steam pressure acting on the surface of the lubricant, forces it through small outlets into a groove on the other surface of the piston.This piston is thus continuously lubricated, and the oil under pressure in the groove forms a packing, one full of oll lasting, it is asserted, while taking twenty-five diagrams.The three elements of electrical transmission of power are: (1) The generators, which are placed at the power station, and which are driven by the water wheel or steam engine or other prime mover ; (2) the copper conductors which are placed on poles like telegraph wires, and which conduct the electric current from the generators to (3) the motors, which deliver the electrical energy to all kinds of machinery.The motors are either belted or geared to these machines.The most effectual way of preventing belts from running to one side of the pulley would be to find out first if the face of the pulley is straight: if not to straighten it.In some cases the shafts may not be in line.The remedy in this case would be to slacken up the hanger bolts and drive the hangers out or in, as the case may be, until both ends of the shaft become parallel.This can be determined by getting the centres of the shaft at Both ends by means of & Iong gifip et oard.- Plumbagq > with 128?\u2018las long been regarded .+Oor by many engineers as a sabricant, and in many places it seems to fit where everything else has failed, noticeably in rough bearings, in which the plumbago can settle and fill up, making a smooth bearing in place of the old one.If this partial use of its lubricating qualities is sue- cessful it would seem that a bearing made wholly of this material would be still better, but whether superior to a good bearing lubricated with oil remains to be demonstrated, and con- pidering the self-oiling bearings are now plentiful and efficient, the advantage of no oil disappears.A correspondent for an engincers\u2019 paper suggests that white paint for boiler fronts, smoke stacks, and other iron surfaces in the engine room, instead of black, as commonly used, I8 more pleasing, and makes a better appearance ; besides, it js knowp that is a non-cofiducter of heat, thételore, whitewash must be considered an excellent material with which to cover the many metal surfaces on which black paint is generally used.He argues that white induces cleanliness, and there is no argument against its use but laziness.A considerable saving in repairing saws is attributed to the process of.electric welding.It was formerly necessary to cut down to a smaller size any saw from which a tooth had been broken, but it is now only necessary to fit in a new tooth and secure it in place by electric welding.A drop of oil restores the temper.The joint fn continuous band saws is also made by this process.MANUFACTURING CANADA.Mr.W.E.Losee is building a large shingle mill in Victoria, B.C.The large sawmill of Mr.F.Tremblay at Montreg] was destroyed by fire.Loss about $33,000.Mr.James White is erecting a new carriage factory in Galt, Ont.It will be 51x34 feet, two stories high.Mr.J.C.Risteen, late of Boston, Mass., is erecting two mills near Chat- ham, N.B., for the manufacture of spools and bobbins.The Canadian Locomotive and Engine Company, Kingston, Ont., are building ten locomotives for the Canadian Pacific Railway Company.The box shook mill and electric light works of Messrs.D.Clark & Sons gt St.John, N.B., have been destroyed by fire.Loss about $15,000.The Kerr Vegetable Evaporating Company, Kentville, N.8., are filling an order for the British Navy for 16,- 000 pounds of evaporated vegetables, The Corticelli Silk Company, with headquarters at St.Johns, Que., je being incorporated with a capital stock of $60,000 to manufacture silks thread, etc.W.A.Morrison, of Brownsburg, Que., is rebuilding the woolen mille at that place recently, destroyed by, At this season of the year the effects nf catarrh and cold in the head are most likelv to be felt, and danger to life and health will result if not promptly treated.For this parse there is no remedy equals Nasal Balm, Fis prompt in giving relief ahd never falls to cure.Beware of imitations and substitutes.\\Sold by ail dealers, 50 cents a bottles The only pufing the Rialto cigar wan \u201cto smoke one.Try it, L.O.Grothe & Co, Montreal.tire, and will manufacture tweeds, flan.pela and yarns.ob pany, of Westminster, B.C., were the purchasers of the plant and machinery of the late Fraser River Gold Gravel Syndicate of Yale, B.C.The Toronto Carpet Manufacturing Company are getting in their machinery.They will run twenty-two pow- looms on ingrains and carpets, both three ply and union goods.A portion of the St.John Nut and Bolt Works, St.John, N.B., have been destroyed by fire.The works were fitted with the best machinery to be procured.The loss is heavy.The vestibule trains of the Canadian Pacific Railway running between Toronto and Montreal, between Toronto and Chicago, between Montreal and Boston, are now heated by steam.The McClary Manufacturing Company, London, Ont., have let tenders for an addition to their stove department.La Fonderie de Drummondville (The Drummondville Foundry), Drummond- ville, Que., i8 being incorporated with a capital stock of $24,000 for the purpose of manufacturing iron castings, mill work machinery, ete.Messrs.Dunsmuir, of Victoria, B.C., will build a boat for the Comax trade to take the place of the steamer 1sabelle.W.J.Stephens and Wm.Tur- pell have the contract.The Albion Iron Works, that city, will build the engines.The Economy Slugging Machine Gompany is being incorporated with a capital stock of $75,000, with headquarters and works at the City of Quebec, to manufacture an improved nailing and slug&ing machine for use in the manufacture of boots and shoes.A Boston man is erecting two spool mills in Northumberland County, N.B., one in the Sugary and the other om Ox Brook.The Chatham Advance says he has contracts for 7,000 cords of white birch, or, as he expressed it, sveral miles of a wood pile.CHIPS AND BARK.- Makers of certain lines of wood goods complain that sawmill men are not careful enough in their cutting and grading\u2014and whieh is often too true.A handsome maple would be considered the last of all tres to blush for anything, but it is generally the first to turn red.There is just as much difference between precept and example as there is between a horn which blows a noise and one which blows a tune.A \u201ccrank\u201d is now defined as a brain- ey yet unpractical man whe has spent his life turning fortune\u2019s wheel for other men to draw prices therefrom.Nothing but a stump now remains of the weeping willow which for so many years marked Napoleon\u2019s burial place at St.Helena.City life is a severe trial.One man ls struck with dry rot ;

Montreal on the 12th and 13th inst., and a conversazione and reception to visiting members will be given on the evening of Tuesday, the 12th inst.The arrangements which the local committee have made are most complete, and a thoroughly enjoyable evening is in store for the invited guests.The rooms of the new \u2018Workman Building at McGill College have been placed at the disposal of the societv, and the conversazione will ba held there.Besides music, the evening\u2019s program is te include an exhibition of apparatus and workshop practice by the students.In the latter will be embraced a

afternoon and last evening, the theatre containing good audiences for both performances.The company is not a large one, but it contains all the elements for a bright entertainment.There is nothing particularly new in the class of performance given.The curtain rises, ag is usual in all ministre] shows, on the entire company seated in pyramid fasbion on the etage.The costumes, hewever, are more elaborate than are generally seen, and with the exception of the end men the ces of the performers are not blackened.The centre men are dressed in the style of George IV, and handsome costumes they are.The songs given are nearly all new, although some old timers may bave recognized something familiar in Maggie Murphy's Home.The jokes have evidently just been tarned out of the factory, for not an old gag can be noticed.After the first part by the company came à langhable sketch of the adventures of Tenderfoot and Toughfoot, represented by George Wilson and Thomas Donnelly, in the Bad Lands of the west, and this was followed by an interesting dancing spectacle entitled Beaux and Belles, by the Fultor brothers, the Christie brothers and William Rowe.George Wison is rightly styled the emperor

investigation into the death of Joseph Perron, and has come to the conclusion that the man was not murdered.Perron was a heavy drinker.In the afternoon he had been brought home intoxicated by two men named Ssvariat, brother of Mrs.Damage Cusson.They stayed al the houses and played checkers with the family until after three o'clock.Then they left and visited their sister, Mrs.Cusson.At this time Perron was sleeping in his chair.About six o'clock he became uneasy, and in spite of his\u2019 wite\u2019s remonstrances he went out.He \u2018 did not say where he was goinz, but went straight to his cousin Damase Cusson\u2019s house at 795 Ontario-street.Oa arriving there he was very drunk.During the evening they tried to keep liquor away from him, but he insisted on having it, and three drinks at leest were taken.The last time, his hand was so unsteady that he spilled more than he drank.Several times he bad to be held up in order to prevent his falling.A little after nine he asked for his hat and left without saying anything.As he did not return, five minutes later Aime Sav- ariat, nephew of Mra.Cusson, went to the door to look for him.He saw him about a block away going from one side of the footpath to the other.The boy went into the house, as Perron was on his way home.He 18 the last person who has yet been found that saw Perron before he was picked up by the constable.Mrs.Cusson, Perron\u2019s mother-in-law, said that last spring, when sufferiug from an illness brought on by drunkenness, he was told by Dr.Hurtubise, of St.Henri, that if he did not leave liquor alone he would not see this winter.She also said that once before he was found lying in the gutter with his hair trozen to the ground.The only witnesses at the inquest were Varice Robert, father-in-law of deceased; Damage Cusson, his cousin; Sergeant Choquette and Constable Charpentier.The two Savariats and the boy who saw him last were not examined.The father-in-law looks upon it as murder, but the other members of tha family ars satisfied it was an accident.The theory of the police is that after leaving Cus- son\u2019s, Perron again changed his mind and turning back passed the house and went on to Papineau road.Rolling along the sidewalk there he fell on the Irczen bank covered with stones, alighting on his head, fracturing his skull.This conclusion has been arrived at after considering all the circumstances and the fact that no motive for murder coald be found, Sardou Prostrated.Panis, Jan, 6.\u2014The attack of influenza from which M.Victorien Sardou, the

of Trade meetings, There was a reason for this as the following circular will show BUTTER AND CHEESE ASSOCIATION.MONTREAL.Jan, 4, 1802.BIR,\u2014] 8m to invite your attendance at a ecial meeting called under the auspices of this association for Wednesday.Jan.6, at 3.15 o\u2019clock Pi m,, to consider the city by-law under which several of our members have been summoned betore the Recorder for selling at wholesale, poultry, dressed hogs and other country produce, The by-law is a very harrassing one, and unless repealed at once will put an end to several branches of the wholesale produce trade in this city.I am, sir, Yours obediently, [Signed] GEO.HADRILL, Sec.In response to the invitation of Mr, Hadrill à goodly number of wholesale merchants assembled to discuss the question.They were met by a fewof our most prominent aldermen who take an interest in the business of the merchants, who form tbe back-bone and sinew of the commercial metropolis of Canada.TLe chair was taken by the president of the association, Mr.MeKergow, and he wes supported by the following aldermen : Stephens, McBride, P.Kennedy, Etevenson and Nolan.The subjoined petition with list of names will show bow the mercantile fraternity was represented : To the mayor and aldermen \"of the City of Montreal.The petition of the undersigned produce merchants of the City of Montreal, Humbly showetb, That your honorable council passed & by-law \u2014No 200\u2014with a view of excepting the wholesale produce trade from the clauses and conditions of bylaw 131 concerning markets, passed June 9, 1882, That it appears that Section 3 of said bylaw No.200 does mot have the desired effect, although speclaily intended to exempt wholesale produce merchants.\u2018Wherefore your petitioners humbly pray that your honorable council will, with as little delay as Possible, pass a by-law amending by law 13i, concerning markets, passed June 9, 1882, so that it shall not in any of its provisions apply to the wholesale trade of this city.And you will do justice.Signed, JNo.MC KERGow, For the Butter and Cheese Association.JOSHUA A, IBgLL, vice-President.F Duckett.A A Ayer & Co.Bell, Simpson &Co.Steel & Campbell.Duckett, Hodge & Co.W Laing & Sons, James Oliver & Co.J A Vaillancourt & Co.Geo Wait & Co.Charles Langlois & Co.Scott, Heuderson & Co.W M Fuller & Co.Alex D McGillis Kirkpatrick & Cookson.JRClogg & Co.James Dalrymple.J Hamilton & Co.Charles Duncan &.Co.The meeting was addressed by Ald.Stephens, who had evidently studied the subject and knew what he was talking about.In a short and practical speech he told the merchants there assembled that he had always been opposed to bylaw No.131 concerning markets.In referring to the old 500 yard restricted dealing Ald.Stephens said that it was a moet iniquitous act and only a remnant of the unrighteous and unjust laws that prevailed in Medicœaval times.As to the $200 tax on butchers for selling meat he thought this a gross iniquity.Unfortunately, he said,official donkey- sm stepped in and the so-called authorities at the City Hall were like the cos- termonger\u2019s \u201cmoke,\u201d they wou'd kick if they could do nothing else.Ald.McBride addressed the meeting in something like the same strain, leaving out the allusion to the obstreperous quadruped.He said that the gentlemen assembled should bring pressure to bear upon the mayor to call a spacial meeting of council to deal with the by-law affeciing this question.It could not be dealt with in the ordinary course of business and therefore a special meeting must be called.Ald.Stephens, in supporting what Ald.McBride had said, informed the assemblage that whatever might be done by their combined efforts at the time of meeting the display of genius exhibited by the city attorney and a few other officials around tbe City Hall would neutralize all that was proposed ts ba cone for the common good.Ald.Conroy aud Ald.P.Kennedy fn'- lowed in the same stain and promissd to do all they could when the question came up in council, \u2014 PERSONAL POINTERS, C.F.Richardson, of Toronto, is at the Hall.8.Ë Lacroi x, of Quebec, is registered at the

HOW HE SE- LEC!8 THE PLOTS FOR HIS PLAYS.\u2019 ee.Seme of the Devices by Which Mr, Nye Has Become the American Sardou \u2014No Stage Villains, Bill Nye in the Christmas Dramatic News.Many correspondents have asked me recently to kindly write them briefly and tersely my ideas of dramatic coustruc- tion.They are especially anxious that my remarks should be terse.Time would forbid an individual answer to each one, 80 1 will pencil off a brief treatise on the subject in order that those few people who have not already written a play may do so without further delay.o, First\u2014How shall one prepare one\u2019s self, or, a8 we say, get into condition for playwriting ?I generally begin in the fall of the year to prepare myself by a rigid course of diet and daily exercise before writing & play in the spring.I awake at 7 o'clock and my valet is instructed to come to my apartments at that hour and 1nsist on my getting up immediately.This Ihave him do that I may throw my heavy riding boot at him and again sink into a delicious slumber, which I cali my beauty sleep.No one -can enjoy slumber much until harshiy told to get up, 80 my valet is instructed to insist on my getting up till he hears me slumbering.Then he goes away.For this he gets my approval ani an occasional high hat which I have outgrown, At 8 o'clock I awake and think of something which would be good in the play and write it down on the cuff of my nightie with 8 fountain pen which I keep tied about my neck by means of a heayy gold cord.Then you may hear two little bare feet strike on tbe floor, and two little bright eyes looking in vuifferent directions may be seen peering out through the casement as who should say: \u201cI wonder whatsort of a day we will have to-day ?\u201d 1 then plunge beadlong into me tub.While under water If I think of a good situation for the play I make a memorandum of it on the bottom of the tub with a piece of soap.Ithen come to the surface for more air, reminding one of a damp siren looking for enough mariners for a mess.I now spray my limbs and foliage with tepid water, pausing now and then to make the memorandum of a good situation, I then emerge from the bath, not gradually, hike 8ardou, but more like Moliere, though Ifancy it 18 realty like no one ese but myself.I may be said to have practically created the part.\u2018While dressing I run over an act from some good French dramatist, and if he should be perfectly free from plagiarism and I am convinced that he got none of his ideas from Mr.Frohman or other American dramatists I cut out a few pages with & view to using them ultimately myself.Idress very much as I did before I began play writing, only that I think | dress warmer, and my clothes, it is said, look more as though they were designed especially for me, My meals are similar in some respects to what they were before I became a dramatist, only that they are more frequent.- - While eating I try to think of a motif for my approaching play.Most always I am not successful, While contemplating the construction of a play and pending the selection of 8 motif,] eat wheaten grits for breakfest, together with smear- kase and fruit.It I contemplate à melodrama with agood deal of soggy woe in it, I eat oatmeal.This I find makes me think of more ways of wrenching the Leated tear from eves uansed to weep than any other food I can use.Af'er breakfast we gather round the cabinet organ and sing something, and if the pastor is boarding with us, I selcct a perfectly unobjectionable passage of Scripture and have him read it alsud, Some of my best situations have besn suggested at such times, 1 think.I now go to my study aud write a few editorials for my press agent, while I run my eye over the papers in order to ce© what ones have mentioned me kindly and order the others stopped.In this I differ from Boacicau't, wh) kept on faking a paper sometimes lonz after it bad ceased to dwell tenderly on his merits.Bronson Howard also permits papers to come to hig house,whethe.they contain personals regardins his whereabouts or not.Shakespeare adopted the same policy which I employ, viz., to cut off such exchanges as should be gilent regarding him.Possibly he and I have shown a vindictive spirit in this matter, but we cannot help it.A year ago I bought a team of band- some carriage horses in Lexington, Ky., and called the attention of a morning paper to the fact, only to be given the laugh, as Joseph Cook might have put it, and inside of six months the foreman of tnat paper pied & form on ons of his feet and recovered $18 from the pro- vrietor.All this in addition to the loss of my subscription.At 10 o'clock I read for an hour the laws of dramatic construction and the statutes in such case made and provided.Ithen perform on the horizontal bar.Then I examine an English joke, taking out the sawdust and putting in pew chlerides, examining its mechanism and then remounting it and putting it away in a cool place.This puts me in touch with those who are fond of English humor.° I now go into the kitchen where our new dark eyed cook is trying to amuse herself, and there I study human nature till my wife comes down and says it is time to call a halt.Human natare is one of the very best and most interesting studies to the true dramatist.One correspondent asks : \u201cHow do you introduce a villian into your play?\u201d I reply at once, with my head thrown well back and with flashing eyes, that 1 do not use a villian at all in my play.Carse him ! Isay.I cannot use him.I tried to utilize him in my first and only great dramatic work, but kept forgetting about him.I could not think of anything for a villain to say that seemed appropriate, so I discharged him, and now you can gee him every evening in the audience criticising the play, or squeezing out and in insearch of à drink, and grinding ap the feet of nice respectable people in a sickening way as he comes back and marches in across the heaving breass of rew G, on the right hand side, he and his jag marching two abreask I always eaid that a villain on the stage and another in the audience was a waste of salary.; | Play writing is far simpler than it is generally supposed to be, and I often wonder why more people do not attempt it, so that we might have mora manuscript plays to select from.Why is it that writers, journalists and novelists bang back so persistenly when there are 0 many calls for plays and such a booming market for tuew ?I hope that every reader whose eye may fall upon tbis essay will feel encouraged to go to work at once.It is easy enough.You will bave no trouble.Write several plays and submit them to either of the dramatic ritics of the New York press.They will be glad to read them for the ideas they may get out of them.Then if they write plays themselves in after years you can say, if you feel like if, that they stole the idea from your own.Study homanity faithfully and you will succeed if you successfully reproduce it in such a way as to score a Success.This rule covers the ground.Sardou said that it I had written pages I could not have said more, I also conceal my moral in the play so that it will not be offensive to a New York audience.ure the secret of my great success ag a playwright.city may show great originality;
