different parts af the Province have already notified the Minister that they intend to take advantage of that policy by acquiring and operating road machines.If the applications continue to come in in this way, it is clear that the 84,000 voted last session for road improvement will not suffice; but it is satisfactory to hear that the Government is determined \u2018to ask the Legislature at the earliest moment for a sufficient sun to carry out its admirable policy in this respect.QUEBEC THE STORM CENTRE Of the Approaching Prohibition Campaign in Canada.The Rev.Mr.Stafford Thinks the Plebiscite May Carry in This Province.T'aron'to, August 13.\u2014(Smpecial.)\u2014Rev.George Stafford, of the Royal Templar Grand Council of Quebec, who has been making a tour of Ontario in the interests of the order, left last night for Monte real.He states that ieee Prohibitionists expect Quebec Province to be the storm centre of the contest.The prohibitionists are very thoroughly organized, and so, he said, are those interested in the liquor traffic, Judged by thc large area of territory in the Province of Quebec, now under local cption, it would seeem possible that a prohibition majority might be given.He was convinced, however, that no time was to be lost by the prohibition- igts in making their preparations complete, should the hierarchy take a pronounced

a point where they could communicate with the outside world.\u201cMy own belief js that Andree has struck a south-west wind, as those winds are the winds that usually prevail at that time of the year

Transportation Companies to Protect Passengers.Judge Dugas this morning dismissed the case which was brought against Officer Bert O'Connor by Labelle for assaulting him on one of the Richelieu and Ontario boats.The case grew out of the difficulty between the hotel hunners and river steamers, and Labelle claimed that he was not a \u2018\u201c\u2018runner.\u201d In dismissing the case his Honor held that all large transportations companies had a right to protect the rights of their passengers.He polnt- ed out that anyone might take passage on a steamer or a train and conduct their business in a passing way, provided that in so doing, the rights of their passengers were not interefered with.Without particularizing he felt that the action must be dismissed.< HABEAS CORPUS ASKED FOR.In

designated he would be entitled to immediate release, the warrant being in excess of the powers of the City of Montreal.Mr.O.Desmarais, Crown pro- gecutor, asked for a delay, and the case is to be

that London is one of the strongholds of the Carlists, thousands of active followers of the claimant of the Spanish throne being located in this city.The Pall Mall Gazette adds: \u201cTheir leader

event of a rising occurring.\u201d The Chevalier Lumbye, head of the Car- list Cluk, during an interview, is quoted as saying: \u201cThe Carlists highly organized throughout Spain.When Don Carlos text

Upon by the Grand Trunk, PAYMASTERS APPOINTED.They Will Deliver Drafts Direct to the Employes, \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 The Grand Army of the Republic Declines to Travel Over Canadian Ter- ritoryr\u2014Raliways and Mining.An important change in the system of paying the employes of the Grand Trunk system has been decided upon by the nsanagement.Some two years ago, it will be remembered pay cars were sent out and the men paid in cash by paymasters.This plan was abolished and tho system of payment by cheques was substituted.These cheques were sent out by express to the agents along the line and distributed by them.A good deal of inconvenience to the men was the result.It has now been decided fo return half way to the old system and the belief is that before very long the original method will once more be restored in its entirety.Under the new arrangement just announced the drafts will be delivered to the men direct by three paymasters for different portions of the system, whose appointments are also gazetted in the circular issued from the treasurer's department.The pay cars are now being fitted up to go out on the road.The new paymasters are Messrs.Henry Williams, of Montreal; G.E.Mason, of Hamilton and W.W.Duffett, of Portland.They are all well-known officials of the road having been in the service for many years.Ms.Henry Williams, who has been socratary to Mr.William Wainwright in the general assistant\u2019s office has been promoted to the position of paymaster of the 5th, 6th and 7th districts from Montreal to Toronto and the Northern Division from Toronto to North Bay.He has been in the Montreal office between ten and twelve years and is a popular official.Mr.G.E.Mason, who has been engineer\u2019s accountant in Mr.Hobson\u2019s office ai Hamilton has been appointed to a similar position on the Middle Division.Mc.W.W.Duffett takes the Fastern Division east of St.Lanrbert.The following eircular has been sent from the Treasurer's Department in reference to the duties of paymasters: \u201cIn future the discharge of the monthly pay rolls will be carried out by the delivery of the regular drafts through paymasters direct, the several methods of distribution heretofore adopted being thereby super- geeded.The.new pagmasters will notify the arrival of the respective cars so as to make the distribution and obtain the pay rolls receipts with the utmost despatch.They will take every opportunity in the course of their trips to satisfy employees meeting the ear.\u201d RAILWAYS AND MINING.Thairailway and business men in Fast- ern Canada are reaping no inconsiderable aGvantage from the mining boom now on in the west.The railways have been especially busy the pasi few months, and their | busines is increasing every week.West- en merchants have\u2019 ordered very freely fiom the east and nearly all the manufacturers have beneffteäü.The principal articles that are being snfpped to tire west are dry goods, groceries, furniture, hardware and liquors.[t is expécbed that the rush to the Yukon Will also result in in- \u2018creased business for cadterfi wholesale houses, and convequently for the railways.The western houses are being rapidly sold out, as'a consequence of the great demand for gupplies and will ha¥e to replenish their stocks from eastern Canada.Bo far the effect of thie has not been felt, but the orders are expected to come along next month.THEY BOYCOTT CANADA.The information that has :en rec:ived here that tk Grant Army of the Republic has refused to travel over the Grand Trunk from.Chicago to Buffalo, where the en- nual cncammment is to be held, because the line runs through a portion of Uanada, is an old suvory im \u2018\u201clailway circles.It js the Nebraskñ members that are reported to have cancelled their arrangements this time, and changed to the Nickel Plate road so as to escape contamination by travelling over Canadian territory.Poli- tits and national sentiment enter a good deal into the affaits of the Grand Army and the railways on\u201d the other side ar» not slow fo take advantage of it.Last year a good mary Maine members went out of their way to get to Minneapolis on that account, although quite a few passed through Montreal.Mr.Wm.Wainwright, general ascistant to the manager of tne G.T.R.has gone to Ottawa.The C.P.R.land sales have about doubled since last year, which is taken as a promising indication.They sold 88,969 acres of land from the first of the year to the end of July, the quantity sold for the same period of 1806 being only 42,176 acres.This splendid increase shows that not only are a great many new settlers coming in, but old residents are largely increasing their holdings.ir sm Begin.ite TO RECBIVHE TEH PREMITÉ.The Mayor has

discontinue the canvassing for subscriptions in cities until after August and the following Tesc'ution was passed: \u2018Your committee asknowledges gratefully the active and kindly co-operation oË eiti- zens in all parts of Canada; and although (per \u2018after the wide publication of the resolution of the Ontario Medical Association may hinder for a short time as general and hearty a response in subscriptions as would bave otherwise been obtained, your commit teu finds great and growing encouragement to preserve in founding the Vietorian Order of Nurses in Canada, and is confident that the movement will have the support of every physician who informs himself of its benevolent character, its thorough practicability and the high standard of training and qualification which will be required in the members of the Order.The Countess of Aberdeen has received a cable from Sid Donald Smith, now Lord Glencoe, the High Commisisoner for Canada, to the effect that Mr.Bancroft, the famous actor, has been so much impressed by the benefits likely to accrue to Canada by the formation of the Victorian Order of Nurses that he proposes to come to the Dominion early next spring in order to give representations and readings the proceeds of which will be devoted to the fund.The cities desiring to make arrangement for Mr.Bancroft should communicate with him without delay.Trspector Strickland, North-West Mount- od Police, left here to-day for Yukon.He goes on by way of Victoria and Dyea.NO RESIGNATIONS At Annual Meeting of N.8.Steel and Forge Co.Report Shows a Loss for the Year

view \u2018of the recent troubles between the management and the men.At the time of the trouble it was known that there was somo sympathy among the directorate with the wcakingmen, and it was stated

everything else pays or don\u2019t go.\u201d Many gold-seekers have not money enough left to pay the exorbitantly higa duty, which runs from 10 to 100 per cent., and can neither go on nor return.Piles of their goods must consequently be left at the lakes if they decide to go In | \u201clight.\u201d The exacting customs duties will drive trade from American cities to Victoria | and Vancouver, B.C.No conflict with the | Canadian collectors has occurred, but trou | ble is threatened and expected.40 FORTUNES WEIGHED.An Indention of the Sums Made by Mines in the Yukon.Tha Alaska Mining Record, in its issue | of July 27, prints some interesting news from the Klondike country, and gives a ° list of some of the miners who returned \u2018from the gold fields on July 14 and 17, together with the value in dollars of the dust | they brought with them.These dgures, may, perhaps, be taken as the most re- licble tlius far obtained.The Record says that ths excitement in Juneau over the gold discoveries has Leen redoubled by the reports brought by miners who returned from the mines by tha steamer Al-Ki, which arrived at ! Juneau from Dyea on July 23.It states that the gold fever had spread to quarters where it was supposed impossible for it to reach.The paper refers to the exaggerated stcries that have been circulated about the wonderful finds made by some of the Klondike miners.In order to find out, as nearly as possible, the exact amount in dollars that the most fortunate of the returned miners would receive in exchange for their dust, a representative of the Record saw ths bags of dust of forty men weighed.\u2018The names of the men and what their dust brought them are reprinted here :\u2014 Anton Strander,

specimen nuggets and expense sacks brought by these who shipped their dust in bulk.And this is the product, mostly, of about five raonths\u2019 drifting.\u201d i A MINE UNDER WATER.\u2014\u2014\u2014 ers who have taken the overland route are harrowing.At the foot of the Dyea and Skagaway passes tons of food supplies have been blocked for lack of horses and Indians to earry them to the lakes which

are pressing forward with but half their supplies, so Intense is the fever which is sending them to the Klondike.It is these men, and they are numbered by the thousands, who have been caught in the terrific storm which wrecked the Mexico.How many have already lost their lives 15 not known.The overland route to the Klondike will be strewn with corpses, according to the old miners who have ai-: ready tried the rigors of the Alaskan climate.Even those who have been able to get to the lakes cannot proceed farther, The lakes have been swollen to such an extént and the rapids have beew rendered so dangerous that it has been found impossible to push forward.An old prospector of Ottawa, Canada, returned here on the City of Topeka.He had little to say but that little was dec¢idedly

Aug.5.(by steamship City of Topeka to Victoria).\u2014If the scenery hereabouts were not already mountainous the baggage heaped on the beach would obscure the land- Rcape.Every steamer from Juneau piles it higher.A day\u2019s work by packers and pack trains does mot reduce it perceptibly.The confusion increases every moment, and many Klondikers have lost their entire outfits.One hundred more Indians have arrived and fifty mofe horses, but from the way the rush keeps up it would be Christmas before all the supplies could be moved it the open season to the Yukon continued long enough.Influenced by stories as to the Skagua and Dyea trails, the crowd flocks back and forth from one to the other at great expense and no little hardship.The smallest canoe, or any old tub that will float, is worth from $25 to $40 per day to its navigator.Fishermen are deserting the salmon canneries and swarming here with their boats to make money.Twenty-one cents is now offered by the excited, scrambling whites to the silent red man for packing.1t is accepted if 2% is not offered.No end to the increasing blockade is in sight.A city of tents 1s being built.Experienced prospectors are abandoning their trip and will not attempt to go in till next spring.But the \u2018\u201c\u2018tenderfoot\u201d wrangles with packers and staggers on over the summit.A continuous string of men is

The Curious Location of a Find in Rainy River District.Ottawa, August 13.\u2014(Special.)\u2014An or- der-in-council has been passed, giving the | Burley Gold Mining Company, of Ottawa, the right to construct a ciib in Lake of the ' Woods, opposite the Sultana mine, for the purpose of sinking a shaft, The matter is rather an interesting one.The Burley Company, which is composed chiefly of , Ottawa men, holds a mining location under | the surface of Lake of the Wcods.The : tion of the Sultana lode beneath the lake.| If so, tha location is a bomanza, as the Sul- ! by Westerners to the granting of any lur- location is believed to include the prolonga- | {henee along the river to their destination in British territory.Because of the high duties which the Dominion is said to be imposing on supplies taken inic the Klondike region by Americans and the protests being made ther concessions to Canadians, the Irtea- eury Department may deny the request and thus inaugurate a policy où retaliation.The matter is pending before Secretary Gage, aud it is expected that his decision will be auncunced within a day or so.It is said at the department that the application of the British Columbia company had to be filed on account of the fact that St.Michael has never been de- claved a port or sub-port of entry.There is another development in the plau of the North American Transportation Company to arm the steamer Portland with rapid firing guns on the occa sion of her return trip from Alaska next month.It is understood that the company has written here to Mr.Lane, representing the Maxim Company, for details concerning his gun, with a view to the purchase of two for use on board the vessel in case of trouble.The details have been furnished and Mr.Lane is now waiting to hear again from his correspondents, OTTAWA MAN TURNS BACK.Seattle, Wash., August 13.-Hon.A.J.McNabb, of Salmon, Idaho, formerly of Ottawa, Canada, whose search for gold in the Rocky Mountains has extended over a period of thirty-tive years, was a passenger on the Mexico for the north, leaving here July 25.MeNabb was beut on moving to the Ixlondike.Ordinary hardship was no new thing to him.This is what he says of the possibilities of getting into the land of gold this winter: \u201cAugust 3 there were nearly 1,060 men at Dyea and Skagaway Bay, waiting to cross the divide.No one has yet penetrated White Pass and the only way to get over was through the old Chilkat Pass.It is impossible to get horses across the sum- wit of Chilkat.here were 300 tons of freight at Dyea and a sinalar gmount at Skagaway.\u201c\u201cl'o the 1,000 men already there were added the day we left 400 more by the steamer Lauder, and nearly every day there has been some kind of craft with more.The facilities for getting over the mountains were utterly inadequate, so much so, that there is mow a complete blockade.- \u201cAt Chilkat Pass there were only forty Indians aud eighteen horses to handle 300 tons of freight up the steep mountain slopes.At Skagaway there were 300 tons and perhaps thirty horses and the trail was not open beyond the summit.In the face of these conditions I came

SAW THEM OFF.SCENES WHEN THE ISLANDER SAILED FOR DYEA vs Rev.Father Devine Tells of the Intense Excitement on the! Coast, \u201d~ Rev.Father Devine, S.J., of St.Mary\u2019s College returned y.sterday from a trip to Victoria, B.C., wherd he was at the time the Islander sailed for Dyea.In the course of a chat with a Herald reported, h.gave some interesting informa- | tion concerning the condition of affairs on tie coast.tana is steadily turning out from $2,000 to | 83,000 of gold per week, and Mr.Caldwell, the owner, is said to hold it Worth a mil- | lion and a half of dollars.The Burley Company last winter made several borings with the diamond drill, utilizing the thick lake ice as a Working surface, and they are said to buwe found the Sultana lode beyond | doubt.| The question then arose as bo how to get \u2018at the lode.The company own a small | island close by, but still not available for t working the lode except at great experse, They accordingly applied to the Dominion for a permit to put a crib in the lake.By law, no \u201cobstruction\u201d is allowed in navigable waters without special permission, and the waters where the Burley Company desired to place a shaft is twenty feet deep.i The permit has now been granted, and | the company will get to work to put down the crib-work, beneath which fo sink a shaft to.the ore vein, which ds over a hun i { The present shareholders, less dhanga dozen all told, have put up all the capital required \u2018to work the property.The point where the crib is do be constructed and the Sultama shaft.THE RUSH KEEPING UP.\u2014\u2014\u2014 Victoria, B.C., August 12.\u2014Despite warnings sent out that the men already at Dyea and Skagaway will be unable to get across the pass, and that very few of the men there will get to the mines this year, several hundred men ar -here waiting to take passage for the noita on the steamer Bristol, and adl the accommmo- dation ou the Islander, which saus on Monday, has been taken up.Seattle, Wash., August 12.\u2014The blockade of Klondikers at Dyea and Skaga- way will lead to much suffering this svin- ter.Captain Amex who was the pilot of the steamer Islander, which has just returned.from the north, says that things are in very bad shape.Affairs could not be much worse.Two thousand people are camped along the rock shore with but few horses or pack animals at hand, and they have practically no chance of getting over the pass.Que of the TInited States commissioners, by using his official infiu- ence and paying $400 in coin, managed to get the Indians to pack his outfit over the Chilkoot Pass to the lakes.Of the others who went from Puget Sound with- cut horses not one in fifty will get across the mountains this winter.Seven S=aibtle amen who went up on the Islander returned on the Victoria, ulterly disgusted with the prospect, and will remain at home until spring, when they expect to make another start.Those who have horses and boats stand a fairly good chance of getting through, but the start must be made before winter comes on.TO SEND GOODS IN BOND.\u2014\u2014 Washington, August 12.\u2014To prevent suffering among the miners of the Klondike pany has asked authority from the Treasury Department to transport goods in | bond from Vancouver to St.Michael, and dred feet beneath the bottom of the lake.| the shaft sunk is only about 600 feet from region a British Columbia commercial com- .\u201cKlondike excitement,\u201d he said, \u201cwhy here in Montreal you don\u2019t know what is meant by the Klondike craze.In Vie- \\ fcria they have it rally bad, and every soul in the whole city can talk of nothing else.Talk to a child there about toys, and he retorts by telling you what he | would buy if he could only get to Klon- | dike.Vaniouver is just the same, Klon- | dike being the only topic of conversation : there ever since the newspapers of Seattle published the reports of the return of the nirers on the Portland.In fact, those same ; Seattle newspapers are largely the cause {of the intense fever all along the coast.They have publish:d such glowing accounts oi the wealth in Alaska, and enlarged so ; consideraibly upon the facts at their disposal, that they have turned people's heads completely.\u201cYer, 1 was at Victoria whom the \u2018Is- | lander\u2019 gailed.It was a sight never to be fcigotten.When the three hundred gold | scekers went or board, thousands of peo- \u2018ple had flocked to the inner dock to see them off.The boat was gaily d.coratea with flags and bunting, and despite the fact that there must have been many liegvy hearts on board, everyone appeared to be as light heartea as school hoys returning home for the holidays.\u201cThe Islander carried a great quantity lab freight, and some of this freight gave \u2018cruse for trouble, and in fact maae several intending gold hunters lose the trip.It was this way : The Seattle pa- purs, although they had deserib d the glevies of Klondike with such vividness that every blanket and every tin of canned gcods in the city had been bought up, had quite forgotten to mertion th: fact that the gold fields were in Canadian territory, or even that Victoria was.Thero- fore, when the Canadian customs offie.rs stepped on board amd demanded duty on the outfi's purchased in Seattle, there were meny «Xpress.ons of surprise and disenst, You may Imagine how well furnished with ready money some of \u2018these p ople who were going to Alaska were, when I tell you that quite a few of them had to stay behind \u2018beause they could not seitle there customs\u2019 charges.lt is terrible to think of the future that must await some of those who did go, not only because thoy have no proper idea of the hardships they must face, but also because they have no money and in many cases no health.\u201d Father Devine states that all along the Ine of the C.P.R.there are signs of pros perity, and that at the railway com- puny\u2019s delightful summer resorts at Banff.Field, Glacier and North DB nd, tourists are rapidly filling the hotels.Before returning east, he also visited the salmon canneries on th, Frazer.At Steveston he witnessed some extraordinary catches.The forty reven cann vies | were glutted with fish.The fla t com- i prised three thousand men.hut notwithstanding the prodigious quantities of an!- | men going up the Fraasx to spawn, tne \"revenue is relatively small, each boat\u2019s delivery henry l'mited from one hundred to omc hundred and fifty fish a day.Over Aifty thousand unused salmon were thrown WESTMOUNT NEWS AN ONTARIO PASTOR WEDDED AT BETHLEHEM CHURCH.Street Railway Improvements\u2014 Roads Need Looking After\u2014 A Unique Quilt.By to-morrow evening the Street Railway Company will have completed their improvements on the straight double tracks from Metcalfe avenue to Green avenue.Not a moment has been lost in its execu tion, and the superintendent of construc tion for the company is quoted in West- mount as a man who knows his business.The splendid minute and a halt service was never marred, and access to all points in the loop line at this suburb has been almost as easy as if no repains were going on.À fine opportunity js open for the corporation to spend some money on their roads.The $13,000 in prospect for the public library would make the roads, which even now are not as bad as many city roads, very much better.The Street Railway Company intend equipping new switches for the Greene avenue corner at once.It is expected that by Monday morning cars will resume their ormer routes, namely, St.Catherine street cars will turn up Greene avenue, and Windsor cars will continue straight out St.Catherine street west.Rev.John McGuire, a former student of the Congregational College, in this city, and now pastor of the Kincardine (Ont.) Church, was married to Miss Laura A.Davis, of this city, Wednesday evening.The ceremony was performed by Rev.R.Hopkin at Bethlehem Congregational Church, Westmount.Miss Minnie Hall was bridesmaid and Mr.E.A.Harding, a fellow-student of Mr.McGuire's, was groomsman.The wedding was very quiet, and was witnessed by a number of immediate friends of both parties, Many beautiful presents were received, and the young couple left on the evening train for their home in Kincardine.The Ladies\u2019 Aid Society of Bethlehem Congregational Church have made arrange ments for a grand bazaar this fall.Among the attractive articles already prepared for it is a fine autograph quilt.Many names are worked in the quilt in silk, and the pateh-work is said to be very fine.The ladies intend exhibiting it at the Montreal Exposition next week, and meantime, in order that Westmount people who are interested may see the quilt, it will be dis played in the church parlors Monday afternoon from 3 to 6 o'clock.Mr.and Mrs.&.Y.Donaldson, of Lis: towel, Ont., are holidaying in Westmount, the guests of Rev.R.Hopkin.me rte rire ere an.We INCINERATOR CHIMNEY Becoming More Dangerous While Aldermen Delay.The Laprairie Boat\u20140ddfellowsto Meet in Convention -Funeral of & Point Resident.,.The incinerator chimney grows worse and worse, and the City Fathers \u201cwait.\u201d Some day the.top will come down, eight or nine men will he killed, and then people will want to know why the aldermen waited so long.Is that Laprairiea boat going to be run to Point St, Charles this summer?is a question asked] by the citizens of the Point.It would be a big boom for the Point, and it wowld be more convenient for the marketmen \u2018who live on the other side of the river than the present route, say one and all.Some claim that a temporary wharf could be built on the dyke for little enough, It is said that if anything is going to be done this summer it is about time to make a start.PUBLIC Friday's Special Offerings Friday's Special Offerings NOTICE.All Repeated Saturday.All Repeated Saturday.HE S, CARSLEY CO.w= Notre Dame St.HALF H Kid Glove Novelties.Correct Parisian Novelties just received, and will be shown for the first time tomorrow.4 Pearl Button Kid Gloves, in latest shades of tam with black stitching.$0.65 4 Pearl Button novely in Kid Gloves, tan and white with black points.0.90 4 Button Jewel Kid Glove, tan end white shades with black points, also in black with white points.1.25 4 Pear?Button Kid Glove, in tan, butter, white and black shades, with fancy braided backs.1.60 THE S.CARSLEY CO., LIMITED, Boys Clothing.H.Shorey & Co.'s stock of Boys Clothing.Last day of eelling at maker\u2019s prices.Boys\u2019 2-piece Tweed Suits, $1.90.Boys\u2019 2-piece Navy Suits, $2.00.Boys\u2019 Scotch Effect YY Tweed Suits, $2,25 Boys\u2019 3-piece Navy &s Suits, $2.10.F Boys\u2019 3-piece Tweed Suits, $2.45.Boys\u2019 3-piece Scotch Tweed Suits, $4.50.Bays\u2019 Navy Che viot Suits, $6.95.Mens\u2019 White Shirts.There isn\u2019t a style or make in Men\u2019s Shirts but what can be carried out by us from our immense stock;

stp.i 1 cs to the value of the invemtion in ver,\u201d replied Mr.Edison, \u201cI do not agree with Marconi, unless the war be conducted in a wilderness or in a savage country.As to the possible communication of neva from vessel 40 veseel, there is someting to that.Indeed, auch communication coud.be indefinitely extended.One vessel, for exemple, withim a twelve mile radius of another might receive such a message end retransmit it into space to whatever vessel might be within its own radius, and go on ad infinitum.But the expense of establishing & receiving amd transmitting apparatus on every vessel would be considerable.Still more oonviderable would be the expense of koeping à relay of men im continuous attendance on the apparatus 8 a8 to male sure that every message rould be received and retramsmitted.No, think the dhief use of Marconi\u2019s instrument, for the present, at lezst, would be in the case of ardhiepelages of islands not more than & dozen miles apart which have no cable communication, Here it might be worth while to try operations at the receiving stations in every island.\u201cThere is another'use to which wireless telegraphy might be, and, indeed, has been put, and that is in transmitting mes- gages from a train in motion to the wires along the line of the road.I made experiments of this tort in 1884 and invented BL apparatus, which is still in use, I believe on the Lehigh railroad.\u201cAn ordinary battery, a couple of telephone receivers, an induction coil with vibrator and a Morse key constitute the detail of the apparatus.The induction coil transmutes the current from the battery into one of the swiftest alternating properties, which produces a like current mn neighboring wires.The humming sound called forth is changed, thronsh the medium of the key, into the familar dots and dashes of the Morse system.The reofs of the cars are rendered available by the attachment of wires connected with one another and with the instruments, These in their turn are linked with the earth through the car wheels and track.There is very little difficulty in makine the message jump the necessary five hun.drad fect, the distance between the cars sud the overhead wires, | believe the instrument has been found useful in minimizing the danger of conlisions, in inter cepting eriminals who hav ; traing and in adding to the traveller\u2019s

PLEASED.American Rabbis Were Never Better Treated Than During Their Visit to Montreal.Rev.Rabbi Wise, president of the Czn- tral Conference of American Rabbis, writes as follows in the American Israelite :\u2014 \u201cLodged comfortably in a palatial sleeper, we went on Canadaward, via Port Huron, erosssd the river through the tunnel, and there we were in the Dominion St Her Royal and Imperial Majesty of Grear Britain and India.The Grand Trunk Railway is an excellent thoroughfare.The landscape north of the lakes is quite interesting to the tourist from the south.\u201cWe arrived in Montreal about 8.30.p.m.eastern time.Here was the ever attentive and ever active Rabbi Ve'd, with an honorable committee of the reform congregation Emanu-El, to welcome us to the metropolis of the Dominion, the city of Montreal.Carriages brought us up town to the Windsor Hotel, an elegant and commodious caravansary, with a park in front of it, and the best of attention witli- in it, Here in airy apartments of the belle etage your man recovered his normal state of mundane existence and concentrated his scattered senses once more.\u201cIt must be confessed that the Conter- ence did its duty exceilently and fully.It carried bravely and promptly the flag of American Judaism.There was wo lack of genuine learning, talent, eloquence and enthusiasm.The work was done well and fully.We worked steadily, earnestly and sucoessfully, \u201cSir Adolphe Chapleau\u2019s address was replete with the brilliant sparkle of @o- quence and dazzling gems of solemn truths &nnounced in a most dignified, &til] incomparably pleasant manner, Tt was tha accomplighed, high-minded stategman and brilliant orator, a worthy representative of the Bittish Crown.Since the Minister of State under Napoleon 1.opened the Sanhedrin in Paris, which the Emperor haa convoked, nothing similar to this atately opening of any Rabbinical body occurred anywhere, \u201cThe representative of the Dominion Government, Hon.J.L Tarte, and nf the Quebec Cabinet, Hou.Dr.J.Guerin, ana Mayor Smith of the city of Montreal, followed one after another with addresses ot : welcome in the same broadly liberal and | hearty tone a8 the Governor had started it.\u201cWe must humbly confess that the Central Conference of American Rabbis ro where and at no time hss received that e:t- tention and courtesy, that genuine honor and respect, as it did in Montreal, the conference were very large, and as intelligent and elegant looknig as we have met anywhere.\u201d \u2014 SMALLPOX DOWN SOUTH.100 Cazes in the Birmingham Pest Houze \u2014Situation ot Reazsuring, Montgomery.Ala., August 12\u2014A deliberate cortemplation of the æmailpox situation in Alabama is, by no means, reassuring.Tt looks worze than it ¥d a week ago, in spite of the diligent efforts of the health authorities of the various cities to stomp it out.In Birmingham, ccnsiderable anxiety is felt and a material interruption of business is being experienced.The disease developed there almost a month ago.It has proceeded slowly but surely along its way and new cases are still cropping out every day.As to the number of cases eximting in Birmingham.+ is difficult to determine.A gentleman who ought to know informed a Constitution correspondent in Birmingham yesterday that there were about 100 cass int the pesthouse there, and that there were undoubitediy a number of cases on the outside.The authonties in Birmingham are vigilant enough, but the negroes there have a great dread of the pesthaused and use every effont to avoid having their friends amd relatives taken there.In one instance, it is said, a negro who had broken out with the disease was reported to the health authorities and a detail was sent to his dwellimg to brimg him to the pesthouse.His relatives learned that the officers were coming, con- ecaled him under the bed and put another negro on the bed.When the detail from the board of health called they examined the negro on the bed and pronounced, of course, that he did not have smallpox.Another case is reported where a negro learned that the health officers were coms \u2018ng for him and fled imto the country.These instances, which are reported on the streets in Birmingham, serve to show the disposition of the negroes tn avoid \u2018being taken to the pesthouse or the house of detention.Several cases have developed among the white people of Birmingham and an interesting question has been sprung along this line.A white butcher whose little girl was taken down a few days ago resisted the demands of the authorities to remove her to the pesthouse and swore out am injunction restraining the officers from entering his premises.The case will he tried in the courts in a few days.The theorv of the defence is that a man\u2019s house is his castla and that he has a right to defend himself there against the opers- tion of any municipal Taw.Tt ie unfortunate that the issue has been made.The law has been enforced am to the negroes who have been affected to their own advantage of eourse, and the injunction proceedings will only serve to remind them of their rights in the matter.SHE SHOT HER FRIEND, \u2014\u2014 Montpelier, August 13.\u2014~dMaud Young, aged sixteen, and Jennie Meyers, aged nineteen.were visiting with Mrs.Jane Teek.They were in a side room talking and laughing, when a report of a shot was beard in the room.Maud came out and excitedly exclaimed, \u201cI bave killed Jennie.\u201d Jennie had been shot in the head and is not expected to live.Maud rushed back into the house, shot herself and died in an hour.They were clase friends and expected to affend a party together this evening.rt ~~ EASTERN SQUABBLE, The Austrian and Bulgarian Courts Fall Out.A Suspension of Diplomatic Relations Takes Place Over the Boitchefr Murder Affair.} | Sofia, Bulgaria, August 13.\u2014The Austrian charge d\u2019affaires, Baron Call Von Kulm- bach-Rosenburg, has left Bulgaria on an indefinite leave of absence, owing to the refusal of the Bulgarian premier, M.Stoil- off, to comply with the demand of the Austrian Government, formally to disavow an interview with the premier, published in the Lokal Anzeiger, of Berlin, in which, referring to the insistance of Austria upon the punishment of Captain Boitcheft, the former aide-de camp of Prince Ferdinand of Bulgaria, recently convicted of the murder of his paramour, Anna Sximon, an Austrian subject, he drew an insulting rarallel between the venality in official circles in Austria and Bulgaria.London, August 13.\u2014Despatches received here from Vienna show that the Austro- Hungarian Government is intensely indignant at the utterances of M.Stoiloff, the Bulgarian premier, and at the latter's refusal to apologize for them.The Pes ther Lloyd, in an inspired article, says: \u201cIf the politicians of Bulgaria, where the officially authorized trade of murder flour ishes, do mot appreciate the importance of the cessation of \u201cdiplomatic relations lt will be necessary to apply stronger measures.We have nothing to do with M.Stoiloff in this matter.I is Prince Ter.dinand\u2019s duty to atone for his premier\u2019s abominable conduct.The Austro-Bulgarian trouble is a sug pension, rather than a rupture, of diplomatic relations, Baron CaH Von Kulm- bach-Rosenberg, the Austrian charge d\u2019hf- faires at Sofa, having'entrusted the business of the legation to the secretary dur- : \u2018The - andiences that came to hear the oratorg ot ing his absence.It is not likely that Austria will do anything further, as Bulgaria is one of the chief customers for Austrian goods.Matters are likely to remain as they are for the present, and as Bulgaria survived a breach with Russia she will also survive a breach with Austria.Tt is suggested that her masterful premier, M.Stoiloff, wishes to embarrass Prince Ferdinand, who must choose ba- tween dismissing his premier and offending Austria.It is also alleged that the sultan has urged Prince Ferdinand to resist, with a view of creating a diversion of European pressure now #xercised upon Turkey with reference to the peace treaty.M.Stailoff\u2019s antipathy to Austria®is.noto- tious, while the relations between the : Austrian court and Prince Yerdinand had already ceased entirely, the Emperor F rancis Joseph having obstinately refused to receive the Prince, DELEGATES CHOSEN For the Hamilton Congress by Montreal Trades and Labor Council, À spécial meeting of the Montreal Trades and Labor Council was held last night to elect delegates to the Dominion Trades and Labor Congress, which convenes at Hamilton on September 13th.There were fifteen candidates nominated at the last meeting including Messrs, Weir, Bayard, Friedlander, Lafontaine, Chatel, Gravel, Fitzpatrick, Keys, Laver due, Lapierre, and Belanger.The ballot resulted in the election of 8.Fitzpatrick, + A meeting of the picnic committee was : then held.A large number of applications for places in the parade were accepted and it was decided to offer a prize to the Union having the largest representation.The secretary was instructed to correspond with Mayor Wilson-Smith with a view to having the City Council proclaim a civie holiday on the date of the picnic.Judging from appearances the pienic will be a decided success.Already thirtzen entries have been received for the horse- race and other events in proportion.Grand marshals for the day were chosen as follows: Joseph Dowten and J.B.Su.purcan.Two orchestras will be provided for dancing.The members of the Coopers\u2019 Protective Union are requested to attend the meeting Hall, Craig street.Business of importance is to be brought up and a large attendance 18 requested.mir CP.R.STATION FOR OTTAWA, Ottawa, August 13\u2014The question as to where the new short line of the C.P.R.from Montreal will enter Ottawa is said to have been practically settled by the C.P.R.obbainfng options on several lots of land on the camal basin which will give them am excellent location for a station in the very heant of the city and cone which could easily be connected with the pre posed Nepean Point bridge when it is built.The property is bounded on the north by Besserer street, on the south by the canal : barm, on the eat by the dry dock, and on ithe west by Litttle Sussex Street, and is | only one short block from Ridesu Street, ; and quite close to the Camada Atlantic ista- | tion.ACTIVITY IN LUMBER CIRCLES.Ottawa, August 13.\u2014There fa a liktle more activity in lumber circles with respect to sending men up to the shanties next winter, and the Lower Town em- ployinent agencies are now fairly buey engaging young men, but it is not expected that anything like the usual number will go up this year.Still, the demand for men at the moment is good and the supply is not over-abundant, as fully 2,000 men have left this rection during the last three months to work in the North-West, : either \u2018on construction of the Crow\u2019s Nest Pass or in getting out Timber wanted fer the road.Another reason for the revival of the demand for men is the fail- nre of the sale of McLachlan Brothers\u2019 | limits on Tuesday.Since all the parcels : were withdrawn, the firm has decided to operate them again, and upwards of 1,000 men will be wanted for the firm at once.\u2014 WILL WELCOME LAURIER.\u2014\u2014 Toronto, Aug.13.\u2014Lécal Liberals pro- pese to tender a banquet to Premier Laurie: shortly after his return from England.The date of the Toromto affair will be left open to suit the Premier's convenience.Some of the local Liberals would like to see him in Toronto during the second week of the exhibition as he will then have an opportunity of coming in touch with a large number of the people from a parts of Ontario.Special Notice, - The iron plate used in the new Morris pianos is made upon the mame principle as those used by the foremost American firms, and is greatly superior to iron pleites weed in the majority of Camadian piamoe.VW.H.Leach, 49 Metcalfe Street, bias received a shipment of half a dozem Morris pianos,

he must assess duty on the stone and refuse to admit it until the duty is paid.The difficulty is that the engineers have no money to pay the duty and so the work must stop, unless the treasury officials relent.It is estimated that the duties that the Government must pay iself on the stone would amount to between a quarter and a hal! million of dollars, according to the construction given to the tariff act by the Treasury Department.GOES FOR CHAMBERLAIN.A French Newspaper's Opinion of the Recent South African Enquiry.Le Temps of Paris, commented recently upon the issue of the British House of Commons Transvaal inquiry as follows: \u201cMonday\u2019s debate brought fully into light the Immoral paradox of the situation.The Government was soon busied more with protecting Mr.Rhodes than with preserving the rights of Parliament and international good faith.The leaders of the opposition were seen to be more ofi- cious than the ministerial members to extricate from a bad position the Minister of the Colonies, and to mark on the head of the guilty one ridiculous thunder on painted cardboard.\u201cMr.Chamberlain, in fine, was seen by tactics which to him are familiar, to clear himself by swearing that he had saved the country, but, this time.to have accompany him to the Capitol, Mr.Rhodes and to load that gentleman with praises after having blamed him for \u2018the moble weakness of great souls,\u201d which apparently is to stir up rebellion, practise treason and deception, and allow the subalterns to pay the penalty.\u201cCourageous words were spoken in this debate.The result was not affected.Only eighty voices, out of six hundred and seventy-two in the House, were heard demanding to know the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth upon this discreditable affair of the Transvaal.\u201cFine victory, perhaps, for Mr, Chamberlain, which shows once again to what point he is master of all\u2014even of the public conscience, even of that of his oppo- nents\u2014but who, if he is innocent would have done better to employ his irresistible influence to obtain the production ofthe missing documents and not to cover with praise, necessarily suspicious, a guilty one whose impunity was already scandalous.\u201cSad day, in any case, for the good name of England, of its Parliament and what was but is no longer the Liberal party, now a shapeless thing, \u2018without name in the language of men.\u201d : ENGLISH STRIKES.The Situation Among the Engineers and Telegraphers Not Changed.London, Aug.13.\u2014At a meeting of the Cycle Manufacturers\u2019 Protective Assocla- tion in Coventry yesterday a resolution was adopted expressing alarm at the engineers, a large number of whom are either cx strike or locked out, demanding that forty-eight hours should constitute a week's work, while the employed in the sams branches in the United States worked sixty hours and those on the continent nearly seventy hours per we:k.The resolution also expressed sympathy with the TFedera- tion.of Engineering and Shipbuilding Hm- ployers in its resistance to the demands of the Amalgamated Engineers.This action is regarded as foreshadowing a large accession of cycle firms to the Employers\u2019 Federation.The twenty-on2 cycle firins who Jeined the Yederation on July 27 were ali in the Nottingham district.The committee of the Postal Telegraph Clerks\u2019 Association has issued a rejoinddir to the Duke of Norfolk, the Postmaster- General, who, on Monday, issued his reply to the petition of the clerks praying for the redress of their grievances.The committee declares that it cannot recom- rend the members of the association to accept the decision of the Ppstmaster-Gea- eral as final.It adds that it is unable to longer consider the possibiliqy of a compromise, and must carry out whatever policy a majority of the members regard as necessary to enforce a settlement.BACKED BY AFGHANS, In \\ England's Rebellious Subjects in India Receiving Help from Outside.\u2014\u2014 London, Aug.13.\u2014According to a despatch from the Times from Sida, the force which attacked Fort Shabkadr, near Peshawar, last Saturday, was made up principally of Afghans from the Jalabad district, together with a contingent of Moh- mandi of Lalpura, all owing allegiance to the Ameer of Afghanistan.The gatherings occurred on Afghan territory, proving that the tribal subjects of the Amecer themselves commi\u2018ted acts of hostility.The Afghan officials do mothing to restrain them.On the contrary, the Afghan general, Cholam Haidar, commanding at As- mar, was in constant communication with the Mullah who led the attack.As a result of this intelligence, more troops are being sent to Peshawar, UNKNOWN WOMAN DROWNED, \u2014 Campbellton, N.B., .August 13.\u2014The body of an unknown woman was found: drowned yesterday in the salmon nets of Alex.Duncan, Tide Head, five miles above here.The inquest took place this afternoon and a verdict of \u201ccame to her death by drowning\u201d was returned.The deceased was a well dressed woman.apparently about, thirty years of age, and had seventeen dollars in money in a pocketbook, a Catholic prayer book (Emglish), with the blank page torn out, and a baggage check from Montreal to Campbellton in her pocket.Her trunk, being examined, contained a letter addressed to Miss Jane Hennessy, St.Cuthbert, P.Q., in care of Mrs.D.Roberge, dated from the Hospice Auclair, Rachel street, Montreal, signed \u2018Ceqil.\u201d The deceased was seen in town yesterday morning, and a resident of Tide Head saw the woman yesterday afternoon walking towards the river about where the body was found this morning.It is the general impression that she accidentally fell into the river while mentally deranged.HAVE PLENTY OF WHISKEY.re.Toronto, Aug.13.\u2014There will be no new Whiskey turned out from Gooderham dis- tiliery this winter.There is enough on hend already to last some time, and manufacture will be stopped for a while.This will seriously affect farmers and cattle Sluppers around Toronto.Large quantities of grain used in manufacturing whiskey when the distillery is in full swing makes it an excellent market for farmers, whe with good crops have been looking forward to good times.The present action | will leave a large quantity of grain to ket-in Toronto will suffer most, perhaps though indirectly.It is the custom or all the large distilleries to dispose of the used grain, or \u201cslops,\u201d to cattle dealers, shippers, ete., who depend to a considerable extent on this source for feed.The \u2018slops\u201d from the Gooderham distillery have been taken in this way by buyers having their cattle sheds here.Cattle feeding, which depended chiefly on slops from the distillery, also furnished a good hay market, and with the stopping of the supply from tle distillery cattle feeding ceases, 80 the farmers will have a smaller demand for hay.Not nearly so much will be brought to the city as at other times, and this may possibly have its effect on prices.HELP NEEDED.GIFTS TO FLOWER MISSION INCREASING, Last Week Was a Record One \u2014 More Assistance Needed in Distribution, Wednesdty, with its heavy atmosphere and continuous rain, must have proved a very dull day indeed to those with no special occupation or interest.to pass the time, which in such event drags so wearily.But a glance at the hippy workers of the W.C.T.U.Central Flower Mission in the M.A.A.A.Ciub rooms on Mansfield street, | where they were busily engaged in sorting and arranging the flowers, showed that here at least there was no room for complaining of the weather or any ether circumstance, The tables were literally loaded with fragrant blossoms, huge bunches of sweet peas, quantities of mignonette, pansies, geraniums, roses, stocks, verbenas, gladioli, nasturtiums, \u2018heliotrope, and many other sweet-smelling flowers too numercus to mention.Mrs, Cobb, the un- liring superintendent of the flower Mission, was, as usual, working as hard as she could, and was assisted by Miss Scroggie, Mrs, Henderson, Miss Douglas, Miss Furse, Miss McQueen, Miss Kimber, Miss Olark and Miss rene Clark.The wark of the Flower Mission is extending wonderfully.The suppiy of How- ers is good, but the number of workers is small.The need is for voluntary helpers during the summer months.Ladies, old and young, can hep in this good work by meeting together at the Club House on Manstield street on Wednesday afternoons, and arranging and making up the bou quets ready for distribution, \u201cWe need more helpers very badly, said Mrs.Cobb, turning to The Herald representative, \u201cand I am sure The Herald «an help us in {his matter \u2018by stating our need in its columns.We shall be pleased to welcome any ladies here who are willing to assist, and we should be glad, too, to have any little girls who have spare time on those afternoons.\u201d Among the contributors to the Flower Mission are the Unions of Eastman, Hun- tingdom, Chateauguay, Ormstown, Cowans- ville and Sutton \u201cY\u2019s\u201d; Mr.Goodhue, of Danville, whe) is a liberal contributor every season, his flowers always arriving in the most perfectly fresh condition; Mrs.Abbey, of Stanstead; three little girls of Woodburn, Knowlton; Miss Prevost, Miss Dow, flowers from Lord Glencoe, through his gardener; from the following city florists, Messrs.Wii hire, Campbell, Gird- wood, Murray, Martin and Pencarrow nurseries.In addition a nice lotwof flowers are received in the baskets placed at the railway stations, as well as a good many anonymous contributions.} Last week was a record one in the history of the Flower Mission.About 400 bouquets were sent out, and when it is remembered \u2018that the bouquets are by mo means small, and also tastefully arranged and a pretty Scripture card placed in each one, it means a good deal of labor.Then they are distributed by he ladies thems.selves.Flowers were sent last week to the Homeopathic Hospital, the Maternity hospitals, the Samaritan Hospital, the Home, Western and Foundling hospitals, besides a number of charitable and benevolent institutions.Besides attending to the public institutions the Flower Mission takes flowers into the homes of the poor, and lust week over seventy bouquets were distributed in this way.A great deal of individual work is done by the ladies, the sick poor are visited in their homes, and fruit and other delicacies are supplied as needed.A donation of fruit for this purpose was received last week from Miss Percival, of Montreal West.While many friends have generously aided in this work, the demand is at all times greater than the supply, so that further contributions are earnestly desired by the ladies to carry on this work, which is an ever-m- creasing one.THE CALEDONIAN SOCIETY.\u2014 Toronto, Aug.13.\u2014The North American United Caledonian Association met at the Walker House here yesterday marning, delegates being present from Chicago, New York, Detroit and other Canadian and American cities.The Toronto Association did not send delegates, ag it withdraw from the N.À.U.C.À.last winter.President James Wright, of Montreal, openea lie meeting with an address, in which he expressed gratification at meeting his brother Scotchmen, and that they should stick together and work to make the association as successful as its objects intend it should be, Secretary Dr.Peter Ross, of New York, spoke in a similar strain.It is now evident that the association has no intention of disbanding.A large number of amendments to the rules will be discussed, one of which provides for holding half-yearly meetings.After to-day\u2019s meeting the delegates were driven around the city in tallyhos as the guests of Mayor Shaw.OF INTHREST TO DRUGGISTS.Toronto, Aug.13.\u2014A case of interest to druggists and the drug trade generally is being heard by Magistrate Kingsford.The tonic wine Vin Mariani was attacked by the Crown officers, who are attempting to prove that it is a liquor beverage.They made Hooper & Co., the well-known King Street druggists, defendants in this action, the charge being the sale of intoxicating liquor without a license.J.J.McLaren, the well-known temperance lawyer, and Mr.Levesconte appeared for the defendants.Lawrence A.Wilson, of Lawrence A.Wilson & Co, Canadian agents for Marlani, and the firm\u2019s legal adviser were also present, The most prominent physicians in the city gave evidence for the defence, including Dr.J, E.Graham, Dr.I.Hlliott, Dr.J.\" A.Johnston, Dr.Wm.Notrass, Dr.J.O.Orr, Dr.W.H.B.Aikens and Prof.Shuttleworth.The medical men gave abundant evidence that Vin Mariani was a medicine and not an intoxicating liquor.Apply a little \u201cQuickeure\u201d to a pimple, or any blemish of the skin, and cover with thin paper, and it will disappear in twenty- four hours, leaving the skin natural and.healthy, as it destroys the germs which enter the skin and cause pimples, boils, ete., especially if one is unwell, or even run down from over-worke VISITING DOCTORS.DELEGATES TO THE MEETING OF THE B.M.A.Names of Citizens Who Will En= tertain a Large Number of the Members, The coming meeting of the British Medical Association which is to take place in this city at the end of this month and the beginning of September promises to be one cof the most important gatherings which have taken place in Montreal since the visit tc this city of the British Association of Science in 1884.It will be the first time that the British Medica\u2019 Association has met outside the British Isles, and the gathering will no doubt derive considerable international importance from this fact.The attendancs ®f eminent medical men, and the members of their families, from all parts of the world will be far larger than expected, and will include many of the most prominent physicians and surgeons of the world.Considerable interest will naturally attach to the arrangements that have been made for the billetting of the visitors.Some 250 will make the Windsor their headquarters, but a large number of others will be the guests of prominent citizens.Dr.Ruttan, registrar of McGill Univer- sity, who \u2018has been most active in his efforts to render the arrangements thoroughly complete, has prepared the following list of those citizens who will entertain the delegates during ther stay.From it can be learned at a glance where the most prominent of the visitors will be

nor is it to be wondered at when the amazing thing which had happened to me is in the least degree taken in to consideration.In truth, I walked on air and saw nothing, I was so deeply over- loyed; and though ît-is certain that as I went out I met one and another, passed the sentries, and ran the gauntlet, of curious eyes\u2014for who that quils a court escapes vhat ordeal\u2014I was mo more conscious of the observations made upon me, or the surprise I excited as I went by, than if 1 had really walked in the clouds.Issuing from the gates, I took by instinct rather than design the road to London, and hug- gmg to my breast the letter which the Kang-\u2014the King\u2014had entrusted to me, made the best of my way toward Tyburn.1 had been wiser had I gone by the other road through the village, and taken the first coach I found.\"lhere efre com monly one or two at Kensington waiting to carry passengers to London.But an the fluster of my spirits I did not measure the distance I had to go, or the time 1 should consume in walking.My mam anxiety for the moment was to be alone, alone and at leisure to probe my fortune and success, and appreciate botlh the relief and the good luck I had compassed.1 could have sung as I walked; I coud have skipped and danced; and æ gleam of sunshine breaking the March sky and gilding the leafless arms of the trees and the flat green pastures that bordered the road north of Hyde Park.I was moved to raise my hat and look upward and reverently thank Providence for this wonderful instance of its goodness, which I had not had the heart to do for some time, When I descended a little to earth, a step which wes hastened by a flash of recollection that showed me Ferguson\u2019s niece waiting at Clerkenwell Gate, a little figure forlorn and desolate, yet with eyes of wrath and a face puckered with dstermina- tion\u2014when I came, I say, a little to myself and to think of Hogsden Gardens, and remembered that it lay on the farther side of town by Bonhill Fields, I was already at Tyburn turning, and it seemed to be no longer worth while to ride.The day wes on the wane, and the road thence to St.Giles pound was lively with persons come out lo take the air; through whom I threaded my way at a good pads, and coming to Holborn without mishap, turned up Cow lame and so got speedily to Smithfield and across the market to Long lane, knowing my way so far without having need to ask.Here, however, 1 took sudden fright.My mind, which, as I walked, had been busy with the girl, and the steps I should take to find her\u2014if, indeed, I wished th find her, about which I was puzzled, the surrounding circumstances being so dif- feremt\u2014wias invaded by the notion that I had been long on the road.To this was added next moment the reflection that messengers sent to arrestthe Duke, could by taking a coach, forestall me.The thought threw me into a hot £t, which increased \u2018on me when I cowdered tha I did not know the remainder of the road, and might waste much time in tracing it.- Naturally my first impulse in this strait was to seek a guide, but Long lane lane by Smithfield is only one degree better than Whetstone Park, and I shrank from applying to the sats and drabs, who stood at the doors amd corners or lounged cut of the patched windows and lazily or rudely watched me go by.In this growing difficulty, and growing more diffident and alarmed the more slowly I walked.I looked about eagerly for some person of passable aspect of whom I could inquire.I saw none, and my uncertain glances and loitering step \u2018were beginning to draw on me advances and an attention that were anything but welcome when, reaching a corner where an al'ey now removed\u2014T think it was then called Dog alley\u2014runs out of Long lane, I saw a man, decently habited, come out a house a little way down the alley.He closed the door sharply \u2018behind him, and as I looked went off im the opposite direction, (To be Continued.)

How the Little Welsh Wonder Gets Into Shape.LOUGHEAD'S CHALLENGE, The Speedy Canadian Feels Very Much Aggrieved.Tho One-Rater Races \u2014 Everything in Readiness at the Yacht Club Now.New York, Aug.12.\u2014A score or more of long-limbed, brawny athletes were basking in the sun at the Manhattan Beach cy- Cie track training headquarters yesterday afternoon.Seated at the head of the stair was a bronzed-faced man with a heavy mustache, who glanced anxiously at his watch and then at the nearby railway station.There was a general air of expectancy about the crowd, and every- becdy seemed to feel \u2018that something important was in the air.After a long wait the man with the Watch closed it up, and turning to the reclining athletes said :\u2014 \u201cGet to work.Here he comes Two figures were coming down the path from the railroad station.One looked to be a child.As he passed through the crowd of athletes he ncdded to several of them and disappeared inte the dressing-room.Five minutes later the little fellow came from the dressing-room attired in a black and blue racing suit.He looked smaller than ever, He mounted a machine as small as himself, but it was noticed that ihe giar was an enormous one.He pedalled around the track for a mile slowly, gradually increasing his pace.Then, as one of the quads came by at & thirty-mile-an-hour pace, the rear man oi the big machine turned his head and said : \u201cCome on and take a sleigh ride\u201d \u2018be little fellow laughed, and sad \u201cAll right !\u201d and tacked on.In another moment the little bundle of bone and muscle, tliat weighed but 102 pounds, was pushing his wheel, geared to 118 inches, as fast as the big machine, manned by four six- foot giants, was able to cut the wind for him.The little fellow was Jimmy Michael, the most phenomenal cyclist that ever dived.His record-breaking performances need no mention.They are known all over the world.Bnt his personality and his system of training are as yet very much of a secret to the public.Michael is on the track for business, and he attends to business, From the time he leaves his bed in the morning until the time he closes his eyes in sleep eb night it is work, work, work all the time.And that, im his opinion, is the secret of his success.As he expresaes it :\u2014 \u201cWhy, you blooming fellows over here don\u2019t do any work.You don\u2019t do any- «img but have a lark all the time.\u201d : \u201cin training for a big race such as my match with Starbuck at Manhattan Beach Saturday after next I get up at 6.30 a.m.My breakfast consists of chops and tes, with a cup of hot water beforehand.Three times a week I have eggs in addition.Then I start out on a slow walk.1 simply stroll along for the first mile or so nntil I feel that my meal has settled.Then I increase my spced to a fast walk, end finally a run ,and cover from five to ten miles in this way.On my return I go to the track and ride ten miles at a two-minute clip, paced by a quad, a triplet, and a tandem.Then dinner follows, consisting of fowl, mutton, or roast beef, aud perhaps a bottle of Pass\u2019s ale, I don\u2019t eat vegetables, nol even potatoes, at any time during my training.After dinner I lounge about uni111 my meal has digested, and then go to the track.wihers my full force of pacemakers are congregated, and 1 am pulled out ten or fifteen miles al the fastest pace the big machines can furnish.My track work is finished at five p.m.Before going to supper I put on the gloves.for twenty or thirty minutes and then use small dunyb-bells for the same period.After supper.which consists almost en- tircly of meat, I stroll or lounge about until! 9.30 or 10.Then I prepare for bed.Before going to sleep I skip the 177 rope from four to five thousand times, \u2018 and then retire.After each period of exertion I am thoroughly rubbed down.If at any time I feel the need of stimulant 1 take it in the form of a bottle of Basg\u2019s ele or egg and sherry.\u201d Michael is training for a thirty-three- mile match race with Frank Starbuck, of Philadelphia, which will be held at the Manhattan Beach track, on August 21.Each man will have thirty-two or mora pacemakers, and if the day is \u2018favorable there is little doubv all records will go by the board, as the men are in fine condition.Since Michael came to this country he has been very lonely, so a few weeks ago he decided to send for his \u201cpal,\u201d and ca- .bled the money for his transportation from Wales.The \u201cpal\u201d arrived this week, He is Gomer Key, of Aberaman,

critical times, and kept them from winning.The errors of the home team were costly.Ollie Beard played a splendid game for the Stars.McHale retired the side in the fifth by hauling in a fly after a

Loughead Is Angry.New York, August 12.\u2014dLoughead, the Canadian who ditinguished himself at the recent L.A.W.chamipionahip meeting by defeating Cooper, Bald, Gardiner and other Aanerican champions, is angry be cause of the charges of the Yankee flyers to the effect that his victories over them were flukes.¥ ! Loughead says he won on his merits, and if the dissatisfied riders are of tne opinion that they can \u2018beat him they can have another chance.In support of Loughead\u2019s sincerity in the matter, Dava Schaefer, the Canadian manager, posted $100 with the American Wheeiman yesterday ag a forfeit for one or more matches, Schaefer stipulates in the challenge which he issued on behalf of the Canadian, and which accompanied the forfeit money, that loughead is willing to race Bald, Kiser, Cooper, or Gardner mile heats, best two in three, for any amount from $100 to $50 a side., Schaefer says that each heat must he paced, cne tandem, one triplet, or two singles, the pacemakers to be mutually agreed upon and to drop out at the three- quarter mile, the contestants to set their own pace from that to the finish.The only tracks on which Loughead will agree to have the match decided are the New ark, Buffalo, Detroit, and Charles River.Loughead wants the race to take p'ace thirty days after signing articles of ag ee ment, and is particularly anxious & have Kiser accept the challenge.The Canadian will allow his forfeit to remain up until August 20.ROWING »¢ SAILING THE RATERS OUT.Momo and Glencairn II.Mave Their Last Spins Before To merrow\u2019s Big Eace.Yesterday morning Momo had a chance of showing what she could do In a heavy wind and big swell.She braved both nobly ard undcr two reefs bowled along merrily for a short spin.Glencairn II.aiso had a short run yesterday afternoon.Mr.Dug- gan has found it too late to order à new suit of sails\u2014the maineail of Glencairn il, perhaps, could be improved on, in Mr.Duggan's opinion, because he is only B@tis- fied with the best.Th: ungovernable flapping of the outer leach stall persists, but only to a very slight degree, and, perhaps, is only visible to Mr.Duggan\u2019s trained eyes.Both boats are being haul:d up to-day.Al Anka\u2019s mast has been unstepp-d and she has already assumed her going away appearance.It is now an undoubted fact that the boat is at least a foot over length, and consequently she is out of the bwenty-foot class.The fresh water pro- bubly has caused this change, ashe would ride considerably higher in salt.The yacht club hous: and its surroundings in the last few days have shown marked signs of improvement, the land in front has been sodded, the kitchen bas been fenced off and everything is rapidly assuming a sailor-like trimness.The coffee room has been beautifully furnished, and the energetic honorary s:cretary-trea- surer is making vast efforts to have the interior of the club as beautiful as possible.ANS Ten Byck Won't Start.Philadelphia, Pa., Aug.12.\u2014Edward Ten Eyck, who recently defeat-d Blackstaife at Henley and brought the Diamond Sculls to this country, will not compete in the national regatta to be held on the Schuyl- kil River to-morrow and Saturday.His futher came to this positive d.termination pion is out of condition owing to the sccial functions he has been obliged to attend and lack of practice since hix arrivai from England.Ten Eyck was to have taken two practice spins to-day, but af- ee this aflernoon.He says the young cham- y £ ; ter his morning row his hands, which are badly blistered, began to bleed and this brought him and his parent to the resolution not to enter the youngster in the regatta.At the Canoe Camp.Clayton, N.Y., Aug.12.\u2014Settled weather s:ems to have come to the canoe camp to stay.M.H.Stewart, of Rochester, is officer of the day.The first of the races will be called on Friday.It will be the paddling dub fours.It is probable that not more than three or four of the events laid out by the regatta committee will be called this week.; ; The most important arrival yesterday in the canoe club camp was Archbald, the Canadian, who sailed away from everything that the Americans could bring against him last year.\u2018The stormy weather again prevented the cruise of the boats.In a baseball gam{ the Americans defeated the Canadians by a score of 18 to 14.TURE AND TRACK.AT A Small Crowd to See the Runnersat Work\u2014Penniston's Lapwing Wins the Steeplechase.\u2014\u2014 There was not a very large crowd oi spectators at Lepine Park yesterday afternoon for the running races, although the weather was fine and the track was all that could be desired.Three races were down on the card, one of them in heals, which practically made four vaces.In the steeplechase some fine jumping was scen and only one accident happened when Rapid Queen went down at the ditch.It was Lapwing\u2019s race anyhow after passing the stand the first time.The other two races were eagy for the Dawes stable, although Bonniefield made two good races and old Felix was almost as bright as ever.There was no betting.Following is the summary: Purse, $125, of which $23 to second, and $15 to third.Weight for age.Half- breds allowed 10 lbs.Seven furlongs\u2014 J.P.Dawes\u2019 ch g Red Monk, 4, 119, + (Walker) .oo ov vr vn ve ove ee 0 1 W.MeBride\u2019s b g Bonniefield, 5, 119, (MeDonald).2.chr ver eee \u2026 2 J.P.Dawes\u2019 b g Waterproof, 3, 112, (Pope) .3 Second race\u2014Purge $125.Weight for age;

this morning by a Herald reported in reference to the potter which has givin eo much offence to trish citizens.He had heard of the trouble Ucfore reaching Montreal and was quite prepared to give a public explanation.\u2018It is ridiculous,\u201d said he, \u2018\u2018to say that we have insult-d the Irish race, or to im- sgine that we have the remorest desire to do go.We want the patronape-et ix1sh- won aud women, of Irish-Canadians, and we are not likely to do anything to forf.at their good opinion.I am heartily in sympathy with the sentiment of national loyalty which has led some Irish gentlemen of your city to defend their national honor, but may I suggest that they mov-d a little too quickly.If Washburn\u2019s circus ever insults any man or woman I will be willing to answer for it, but such a charge has never before bren laid against us.\u201cThe kernel of the trouble, as 1 understand it, is the fact that we have posters representing our educatcd monkey, \u2018Mrs.Rcorey,\u201d which Irishmen consider should not be allowed.I wish to state e\u20acm- ptatically that in calling the animal, an exceptionally intelligent one, by this name we had no desire whatever to be offensive.In any case we did not give it that name.I{ was purchased from the authorities of Central Park, New York, nine years ago.\"and bore that name then, and answered to it readily and promptly.You can se: .we are not to blame.and I think it only fair.play and British justice that; wa PERSONALS Archbishop Langevin returned to Winnipeg yesterday.M.Castillon du Perron, of Cognac

Piers\u2014Basins 315, 380 and 400 Feet Wide.Twenty Vessels 500 Feet Long Can Be Accommodated at One Time.Among the many plans of the proposed harbor improvements which have been prepared, one that meets with consider able commendation was yesterday infor- maily discussed by a number of the iiar- bor Commissioners, at the suggestion of one of whom it had Leen prepared.It is a compruinise \u2018between plan No.6 and Mr.Tarte\u2019s, and appears to combine the.advantages \u2018of both, while minimizing the weaknesses of each.It provides for four piers, the two west- erly ones being each 1,500 feet long, but : it is\u2019 proposed that only about 1,000 feet of each be built, needs of commerce demand their extension.This woud in the meantime cut off three berths.The third pier is 1,223 feet long, and the fourth 1,000 feet.\u2018I'he piers run at such an angle that they can be extended farther than on until such time as the some plans that have been proposed,which | di course means just so much more har- \u2018bor acecommodation.According to the t plan twenty vessels may be berthel.The respect in which this plan is more particularly a compromise is in the width of the basins, The upper basin & the \"only one nearly as narrow as the original : designs, being 315 feet.The centre one is 380 feet, and the castern one 400 feet.Such experienced vessel men as Mesrrs.Harling and Reford say that these basins are ample for all possible requirements.The larger vessels can, if necessary.ceru- py the lower basins, while the upper ba- gin may be used by the smaller boats.Allowing for the very largest vessels the space to be occupied would be: (Ocean vessel, 60 feet: elevator, 20 feet; lake ven 30 feet\u2014total, 110 fect.Allowing for the same number of vessels on the other

of the p'ers, which in other plans create an unnecessary difficulty for vessels entering the basins.The distance between the guard pier and the other piers is 630 feet.After tha twenty vesscls are

University Streets.The remains of a human body, apparently a woman's, consisbing of an arm, \u201ca liver, a back, and mulilated head, w.re and taken to the morgue.that \u2018the remains were left

good an aggregation as any under canvas.\u201d Mr.Roy, who acts as press agent, and Mr.S.O\u2019Donnell Lewis.one of the management reiterated that there was no wish to offend any one in posters, performance, or anything else.Mr.Lewis added that most of the managerial staff brasted Hibernian blood,and it was impossible for them to cast any slur on their motherland.The license for the circus was issued some days ago by acting Mayor Sadler, and before the Mayor got home.Hence ik was impossible for His Worship to take any action on the petition presented té him.He has issued orders for the maintenance of good order, however, and a special force of constables will be available if there is any trouble.The following letter has been received by The Herald cn the subject of the posters complained of:\u2014 Editor of The Herald: Sir\u2014Your timely exposure of the offen- five posters of Washburn\u2019s circus is higdly commended by the many Irish readers of The Herald in the city.That the management of a show -dependent on public support should offer such a\u2019 gross and gratuitous insult to the Irish people 1s quite incomprehensible, and Irishmen, not only in Montreal, but elsewhere, will prove to Mr.Washburn that they know how to resent such an insult to Irish womanhood.I doubt not but our English and French fellow-citizens also will prove by their absence that they do rot require Lo be amused by any crowd cf hoodlums which chooses to come this way.And the show in question has fully earned this title by their riotous conduct in Quebec, It the Washburn people wish to run a decent.inoffensive show, let them withdraw the objectionable poster and apologire.The County Board of the Ancient Order of Hibernians, by their prompt action in this matter, have earned the gratitude of ali Irigh-Canadians, members and non-mem- bers, of their organization.Respecifully yours, J.McCUORMICK.120 Windsor street.\u2014 LOOKS B10 FOR OUIMET Said That There is Strong Evid
