Sir Wilfrid Deeply Affected.To these addresses, which had been delivered in French, Sir Wilfrid replied in the same language, and there was a suggestion of a tremble in his voice, and a suspicion of mecisture in his eyes, as he heartuy thanked his compatriots for the reception they had given him.He was particularly glad, he said, to receive their congratala- tions because he felt that upon this occasion any success which he might have achieved, coincided happily with tke sue- cess of the country, which he had had the honor to represent in England and elsewhere.He brought back with him memories, which will never be forgo\u2019sen, and even if, by chance he forgot any of \u2018he ceremonies, which came after, it woula be simply impossible for him to forgot tlie reception which had been accorded to Lady Laurier and himself upon their arrival at Liverpool.But still, after all, the reception, which went right to the heart of a man, was the reception given him by his own people, and so he had felt pieas- ed and honored by these addresses for which he begged the gentlemen who hax read them to express his thanks to their respective municipalities and parishes.\u201cHis there h\u2019any more for the shore,\u201d shouted an assistant steward.This meant a second hurried handshaking, three cheers for the Premier and Lady Laurier, and the informal ceremony was concluded, and of the large crowd which had boarded the Labrador there remained only Mr.Law- soh, the representative of the Dominion Line; Dr.Montizambert, the superintendent of the quarantine station: Pilot Pouliot, and three press representatives, A Talk With the Premier.To these latter came presently a kind message from Sir Wilfrid stating that he would be pleased to have a talk with them In his cabin \u201cHow do you do, you will have to find seats where you can.Here, Mr.Herald, sit next to me.\u201d ) I did\" as I was bidden, mentally making a note that the Prime Minister looked bronzed and healthy.Even as I dM so, he said, with a twinkle in his eye, \u201cI suppose you want to know how my health is, and wliat sort of a voyage I have had.Well, look at me and you will find the answer to thé first portion of your question, ard as regards the second part of it, I may say that the voyage has heem in every way most pleasant.Now I desire that you premise anything that you may be going to write with the statement that I never give interviews to the papers.That is my rule, but as this is an exceptional case, and as I have been away from home fcr three months, I intend to break through it, and to give a few of my impressions.I do not intend, I may say \u201cat the commencement, to go into personal matters, and I shall probably tell you a great deal that you have already read, but 1 have the advantage over you, in as much as I have the opportunity of seeing with my own æves the things ct which you have gained your ideas through newspaper reports.Described the Jubilee Process ox.\u201cFirst, let me say something regarding the Jubilee procession.It was a sight never to be forgotten, and was a marvel leus revelation of the magnificence of the British Empire, and a striking tribute to the personal popularity of Her Majesty Quéen Victoria.Throughout, it was a won- derful sight, but I think the most impres.Blve portion of it was the service at St.Paul's.I think it was at once an index to the Ænglish character, and a credit to the English nation, that the consummating ceremony of that day should have been the public thanksgiving to Almighty God for the prosperity of the Empire.It was truly & great speciacle to sec Queen Victoria, the dignitaries of state, the representatives of the army and navy, and the great men of the nation all there under the canopy of heaven, in the face of that grand cathedral, offering their thanks to the Creator tor His mercies.\u201cThe naval review was a spectacle of an altogether different character, and yet it was also most impressive to see all the strength of the greatest navy in the world displayed, from the biggest man-of war to the tintest torpedo boat.It was a sight never to be forgotten, and made one feel that if there is any one thing more than another that exhibits the strengthioof the British Empire, it is a marine display with all the sea forces exhibited in this manner.\u201d A New Career Opened to Canada.Then turning his attention Lo matters of supreme importance to Canadu, Sir Wilfrid entered upon a short discussion of the position held by the Dominicm is Kurope, the importance of the demuncia- tion of the German and Belgian \u2018treaitie:, and the stupidity of those who argne that this action on the part of Great Britain will not materially assist.Canada.\u201cCanada is now beginning an entirely new career,\u201d he said, \u201cnot only in Eng- lund, but in the whole continent of Europe.The denunciation of the German and Belgian treaties, made at the request of Canada and the other self-governing colonies, has without doubt created a profound impression throughout the con\u201c tinent, and unless I am greatly mistaken, we shall, 1 anticipate, see a great flow of both capital and population to Canada within the next few years.And yet it is but two or three years ago that the English Government, through Lord Ri pon, refused to consider the denunciation of such treaties.\u201d What Has Caused the Change.\u201cMay I ask how you account for the change of front, Sir Wilfrid ?\u201d \u201cThe answer is not far to seek.I attribute the change to the attitude taken by the Canadian Government at the last session, arf the tariff legislation then adopted by the Dominion.By our action England was placed in the position ot having either to \u2018advance or recede, and she advanced to meet us in the manner which we desired.There can be no doubt as to the advantages which Canada wil gain from the denunciation of these treaties, the greatest undcubtedly being increased fiscal indegendence for us as a nation, These treaties were in the way of any fiscal arrangements which we couid have made with the sister colonies, or even with foreign nations, because the moment any such arrangement had bern made Germany and Belgium would have stepped forward and claimed the same advantages without giving anything in return.Canada found this out repeatedly during the twelve months prior to the J ubilee, when the Government was quite able to see how its power was limited by the existence ot these treaties, when it had opporunities to act in a manner which would have been for the good of Canada.\u201cNow we are free.\u201d The Fast Line 1s Assured.\u201cCan you tell us whether the arrangements in connection with the fast service are proceeding satisfactorily, Sir Wilfrid?\u201d \u201cYes, I have every reason to believe that the Canada.Atlantic fast steamship service is absolutely assured, and that it wil: be in operation before two years from now.Mr.Petersen has had to overcome many difficulties, as 9 mon with a new idea always has to but I have every reason to convinez me that he has success fully overcome them all.\u201d Three Great Personalities, Speaking of his trip to France, the Premier, who modestly declined to say one word concerning \u2018his triumphs in that country, gave his opinion concerning the attitude of the French people towards Canada as follows: \u201cThe French people have always been very friendly in their disposition towards Canadians and they are now still more 80, but I am sorry to say that Canada is not as well known to Frenchmen as jt ought to be, and perhaps, I may cherish the hope that my visit to France may have dispelled a few of the false improssions, which may have existed prior to that time.\u201d \u201cYou visited other cotniries besides England and France, did you not?\u201cYes, while I was on the continent I went to Switzerland and Italy.\u201d Sir Wilfrid was evidently bearing in mind the conditions of the interview which he laid down, for he stopped, smiled genially, and then softening the least little bit, he concluded the interview by saying: France's Attitude to Canada.\u201cOf all the people I met while I was in Europe, and I met many\u2014but 1v woul i take up too much time to give you my impressions of each of them\u2014there are three personalities which stund out clearly and vividly in my mind\u2019s eye to-day.It us impossible to fully appreciate the wonderful impression created by tMfêse three illustrious personages\u2014I refer to Her Majesty Queen Victoria, the Right Hon.Mr.Gladstone, and His Holiness Pope Leo XIII.\u201d With these worde Sir Wilfrid rose from the corner of the cot, where he had been sitting, and shaking hands, bade the press representatives \u201cgood night.\u201d As Democratic as Ever.There is one little incident in connee- tion with the interview, which is, perhaps, worthy of mefftion, for it shows that the facetious individual who opined that Sir Wilfrid\u2019s democracy was knocked into a cocked hat, when he became a privy ccun- cillor and a Knight of St.Michael and St.George, subordinated facts to witticism, and was, to use the vernacular of the baseball field, \u201caway off his base.\u201d During the conversation one of the reporters momentarily forgot himself and adressed the Premier as Mr.Laurier.Remgniziog his mistake, he immediately apoligized, but Sir Wilfrid, smiling good naturedly, interrupted him to say \u201cDo not apoligize, there is no\u201cffistake, I like the plain \u2018Mr.Laurier\u201d just as well as my new title.\u201d Coming out of the cabin of the Prime Minister, The Herald representative met Dr.Montizambert, the superintendent of the quarantine station, who showed him wu telegram he had received fro mHon.Sydney Fisher, instructing him to have a salute fired as the Labrador passed Grosse Pres!ded at a Concert, On Thursday evening Sir Wilirid presided at the concert given on board in ald of the funds of the Liverpool seaman\u2019s orphanage, and although he did not make a lengthy speech, he charmed one by his manner in introducing the ladies and gentlemen wio had volunteered their services.The concert was a grand success, and realized the swm of £15.\u2018ile Premier was also the first person to sign an address, which was presented by the passengers to Captain Erskine, for his successful efoTts t6 make the voyage emjoyahle, and comfortable in every way.: Despite the fact that it was midnight before he retired, Sir Wilfrid was on deck before six o\u2019clock, armed with a large pair of ficld glasses, with which he scanned the (Janadian shove on both sides, Laay Laurier ajpecared shortly afterwg ls, in company with other of the lady passengers, and after a short time the distinguished couple passed along the deck exchanging handshakes and farewell wishes with their companions of the voyage.The Druid Hove in Sight.Shortly before half past seven the [Island of Orleans was sighted, and the steamer Druid was seen lying at anchor off St.Laurent.As soon as the Labrador came within hailing distance, the crowd on board the smaller boat gave three cheers for the Premier, and as she ranged alongside, Sir Wilfrid was seen leaning over the side waving his cloth traveling cap, a second volley of applause broke out, only to be drowned by the band of \u201cB\u2019\u201d Battery, which struck up \u201cSee the Conquering Hero Comes.\u201d the passengers on the big liner keeping up a continuous round of hand-clapping meanwhile, Greeted by Mr.Marchand.* The gangway having been: lowered, Sir Wilfrid and Lady Laurier boarded the Druid, the first man to great the Pre- nier of the Dominion being the Hon.F.G.Marchand, Prime Minister of the Province of Quebec.Among the other members of the reception committee and distinguished citizens on the small boat were: Hon.Mr.Parent, Mayor of the City of Quebec; Hon.Messrs.Shehyn, Duffy, Turner, 8.A.P.Pelletier.and Frs.Langelier; Messrs.A.Robitaille, M.P.P.; Pinault, M.P.P.; Roy, M.P.P.; Savard, M.P.; J.B.Laliberte, president of the Harbor Commission; Aldermen Vincent, Roy, Duchaine, Madden, Belan- ger, Tanguay and Martineau, R.Larue, |H.M.Price, J.Lemoine, L.O.Picard, G.Rochette, president of the Club Mercier; Joseph Amyot, J oseph Gauthier, C.- Parent, C.Faguy, C.Knowles, Dr.Beaupre, W.Vincent, B.A.Scott, James Lambkin, Frank Carroll, Alderman Scotit, of Toronto, and a large number of other well-known citizens of Quebec and other cities, 4 The Labrador menwhile proceeded to her berth off the Louise embankment, where she wharfed at 8.05, with every availaible flag on board fluitezis to the breeze.A Salute From the Citadel.Her customary salute of three gun shots was answered by the salute of the Citadel, and bunting and flags were run up from every steamer in port.The Druid went slowly up the river, passed the wharf and came back at ten o'clock when the whole party landed.Sir Wilfrid and Lady Laurier were escorted to the Chateau Fron tenac, the streets en route being crowded and his lady lustily and continuously.After Sir Wilfrid has somewhat rested from the fatigues of the voyage, a procession, in.which the citizens have been requested to take part, irrespective of racial or political differences will be organized to leave the Chateau at 2 o'clock p.m., and proceed to Victoria Park where an address to Sir Wilfrid will be presented by the Mayor in the name of the citizens.À Piano for Lady Laurier The evening\u2019s proceedings are to include the presentation of an address and a piano from the ladies of Quebec to Lady Lauter, in the City Council chamber at 8 o'clocic, and another visit to Victoria Park, to witness the pyrotechnic displays.The band of the R.C.A.instead of favoring the terrace will play during the presentation to Lady Laurier in the City Hall, and accompany the visitors to Victoria Park.The welcome here is not that of à particular party or set of men, but the Ancieut Capital of the province.lt is expected that men of all ranks and opinions will swe'l the procession, and that the line of march will be gay with figs and mottoes, each man vieing with his ncighbor in the elegance of his decorations.Sir Wilfrid has deserved a gpecially hearty welcome from Quebec, and her citizens will not be remiss in according it.mm men, 5 a or arr ce QUEBEC CITY'S ADDRESS Residents of the Ancient Capital Pay Their Respects to Canada\u2019s First Minister.(Special to The Herald.) Quebec, August 28.\u2014The following is a copy of the address which will be presented to Sir Wilfrid Laurier by residents of this city this afternoon :\u2014 \u2018Sir, \u2014 The citizens of Quebec are pre sently assembled to offer you and Lady Laurier their most heartfel\u201d, congratulations on the occasion of your happy return to Canada.\u201cThey are proud to be the first to greet you at thig moment when you touch for the firet time Canadian soil on your return from a voyage which shall be noted as one of the most important ever achieved for the honor and the benefit of our beloved country.\u201cQuebec, the cradle of the Canadian nation, thus opens the series of truimphal receptions which await you in Montreal, in Ottawa, in Toronto and elsewhere, to celebrate the brilliant success of your mis- gion abroad as the extraordinary envoy from Canada to pdrticipate in the celebration of the Diamond Jubilee of Her Most Excellent Majesty the Queen.\u201cInvested by popular suffrage of the supreme command, you were by right our chosen official representative in that gorgeous array of all the might and wealth of the Empire.Your knowledge of public affairs, your spotless reputation, and the fascinating power of your eloquence pointed to you as the proper person to fultil such a high and deliacte task.\u201cThanks to the wide-spreading power ot the electric spark, (Canada has been a unit to follow with legitimate pride the progressive march of this wonderful journey.We felt honored as a nation when Our Most Gracious Sovereign, after conferring upon you eminent diguilies which bring Isle.Tib:s was done an hour or two later.graciously given you precedence above al: the other Colonial Premiers in the Jubilee celebrations.We have heard across the seas the echo of the enthusiastic cheers oi the people of the great Inglish metropous which greeted your appearance before the London publie, to the intense satisfaction of our national pride, and, finally, when your powerful eloquence mastered the most enlightened audiences in the great centres which govern mankind, you attracted upon our beloved country the syr- pathetic attention of the whole world.with citizens who «cheered the Premier ! \u201clf we consider the results of your ; mission to England, we are happy to find Ithat, as our spokesman, you have con- 'stituted yourself the forcible exponent of lour loyalty to the British Crown, and you have thoroughly expressed how con- | tented wo feel to enjoy in an absolute \u2018manner the blessings of self government, \u2018the benefit of all the privileges of the | British Constitution, and the ail-powerful | protection of the British flag.\u201cYour timely declaration of sympathy towards the consolidation of the Empire has won for Canada the gratitude of the English public, and whilst carefully guard- ling against any encroachment upon col- conial independence, you have developed 40 the admiring and fascinated gaze of preud England the wonderful possibilities of a preferential fiscal policy between the Mother Country and colonies which would \u2018practically make England independent (from the other nations, and in case of war would put her im a position to resist the combined forces of the rest of the world, ) \u201cFrance, the mother land of old, has greeted you as the beloved but long-ost child, who, ravished in tender years from motherly care, returns after years of ab- ;sence, his heart still burning with the {love of the native land, full of honors and (glory, and who is welcomed home as the | well deserving scion and the pride of his race.Your beautiful language, your noble £cnitiments, and your masterly eloquence | betrayed you as the true and brilliant son :of France, and you won the flattering ; compliment for our race that the blood | which flows in the veins of such among jus Who pride their French descent has not degenerated.\u201cYou were truly our spokesman when, &mid the profound emotion of you au- tiences of London and Paris, you so frankly proclaimed our affection for F runce and our loyalty to England as the undivided sentiments of our hearts, and ;more so when in a masterly stroke of eloquence you evoked the immortal figures of Wolfe and Montcalm and pointed far way across the ocean, on the shores of Quebec,to the monument sacred by an Eng- ish Governor to the memories of the (Blorrous victor and of the heroic defender of New France as a token of the tolerance and good will which prevail in the midst of our people, formed as it is of so many diverse elements.\u201cAnd what a masterly revenge you have taken in Paris for the burning insult which Voltaire once threw into the face of our forefathers when he sneeringly made reference to their homesteads as a few acres of snow, in the very moment when they were agonizing om the battlefields of New France, in the midst of the fiercest siruggles to protect the flag of the Mother- and.à } I heluded D Ru \u2018 W \u2014_\u2014 Arrivals at Lake Co 25th inst.lock;

Canadian matters in the Bri- ish papers during the season.That may Jed to à decided advantage in the demand for Canadian products.The consuming public of Great Britain, which does nos often trouble itself with the names of places whence their food product come, have been persistently and continuously made aware of the fact that Canada, is the premier colony of the Empire, and a place from which all sorts of good things may be obtained, from the best quality of wheat to the finest of cheese to eat with their bread, from the most nourishing beefsteak to luscious and dainty flavored peaches and pears, from.golden butter made in the Government creameries in the North-West and elsewhere, to bricks of gold (in prospect), from the Klondike aud Kootenay and the Lake of the Woods, Business is Business.The British business men whom one meets from day to day say that they find a decided preference in England for things Canadian and things colonial; but that when the retail buyer comes to the importers warehouse to select his goods for the week, he leaves his preferential sentiment outside of the warehouse and out of the bargain, and buys only what he counts to be the best value, mo matter where the goods come from.Moreover when he buys anything Canadian, he adds to his shop talk for his customers the fact that it is Canadian, and therefore pure, wholesome, and from a eountry where the habits and customs of the people are of a very high order in regard to cleanli- Less, More than ever the British markets are becoming the places where the surplus touds of all lands are sent tor final disposat, There is such an abundance and variety of foods in the markets of the great cities of England, Scotland amd Ireland, that the people have become fastidious and most discrimnating buyers.On the streats of the great cities, while a Canadian notices the poor and sometimes tattered clothing of the lower classes, he is struck by the wellfed appearance of their aces and tims, For the best qualities of all kinds of foods in the pink of con®ition, there a steady demand, at relatively high Pres; and for the same kind of food of iy mierior quality and out of condition, ny are very low, although the de- ay be called omniverous.Fresh Meats.Lsaw only one shipment of fresh dressed ef from Canada, When cut up on the punter of the retailer, it compared most évorably with the best Scoteh

Australasia and Argentina.While in the frozen state they look almest as well as the fresh killed and unfrozen carcases, but when they are thawed and exposed they quickly take on a darkened and repulsive appearance.Those interested 1n these products claim that the quality 18 nearly as good as the home-grown English, Welsh and Scotch mutton, but they do mot fetch as nearly a good a price, There is a good chance for trade in chilled Canadian lambs and mutton to be built up.Canadian Cheese.I found Canadian cheese holding its place well in the British markets.This year has shown a more active demand from consumers tian has existed during the summer for a few seasons.I think the output of cheese has been slightly above the average quantity, and some 20 per cent.above the average price of the last two years.There is still a wide difference between the prices of the finest Scotch and English cheddars and the finest Canadian cheese.As an instance, I may cite what I saw in one of the large warehouses in London.A lot of Scotch cheddars was sold at 62s per owt.They had a slightly richer body and finer flavor than the Canadian cheese in the same warchouse, and in this country would have been counted worth.a quarter, or at most half a cent per pound more than the Canadian.Yet they were sold wholesale at four cents per pound over the top price for the Canadian cheese on the same market, on the same day.There is voom still for improving the quality of Canadian cheese until a large share of it is as fine as the best of the English and Scotch cheddars.With cool storage at the cheess factories, so constructed and managed that the temperature shall never rise above 88 degrees in summer, it is rich a body and as fine a flavor as the best I saw in England or Scotland.{ At present the discrimination between the different qualities of cheese in Canada seldom leads in the same district to à difference of more than half a cent per pound, whereas in Great Britain the differences often are as much as five cents per pound, wholesale.An evil complained of by many of the importers in Great Britain is the practice by some exporters om this side, of selling \u201cfutures,\u201d that is offering to sell cheese at certain prices for future delivery, often before the cheese are made.In their opinion, if that could be effectually stopped, the trade would be on a healthier and more satisfactory basis, with the likelihood of more remunerative prices for the producers in Canada.Creamery Butter.T found a great change in the reputation of Canadian creamery butter in the markets of London and Manchester.During the last few years it has won for itself a good name and an increasing dc- mand.The Danish butter still holds a good place in the British markets, but in some of them it is now wnly sewmd to the best Irish butter from, the cooperative creameries.The North British Agriculturist, in its issue of August 4th, published the last of a series of articles on Danish farming.The writer illustrates the article by a number of cubs reproduced from kodak photographs of cow stables in Denmark.He agrees with Mr.Speirs, an eminent Scotch farmer, who visited Denmark lately with several other members of the Royal Commission on Tuberculosis, in saying that \u201cDanish dairy stocks were, as a rule, kept under the most deplorable sanitary conditions.Tuberculosis of a generalized and very virulent type was exceedingly prevalent there, and the wells for the water supply to the farm households and live stock, as well as three cases out of four, within less than a dozen yards of the dungstead; so that lie hud been forced to the conclusion that many of the cbscure cases of typhoid fever In this country were caused by ithe use of Danish butter.\u201d I think that the place hitherto occupied by Danish butter, which has been stupendously advertised, well manufactured, generally uniform in quality, and put up in most attractive packages, will hereafter be taken up by butter from Trish creamerses and Canadian creameries, The general good health of Canadian cattle, the purity of the water supply, the luxuriance and fine quality of the herbaze and fodders, and the cleanly habits of the people, are all advantages on the side of Canada which count for a great deal.While I saw the best quality of fresh flavor ed butter selling at from 84s to 88s per ewt., I saw what was called creamery butter from the United States, slightly off in flavor and soft in body, selling at from 60s per ewt.The market emphasized mn the most striking way that for anything under the very best in quality, an almost ruinously low price was the best that could be obtained.The 56 pound box is the butter package most in favor.Manufacturers and shippers of butter should take special pains to put every package in a canvass bag while it is clean.An unsoiled, neat and attractive package will attract the best class of customers who are able and willing to pay the highest range of prices that the market will afford.In conver sation with a large butter dealer in Scotland who handles only butter from Irish and Scotch creameries, he said to me that he had that day examined a lot of Canadian creamery butter which arrived in one of the \u2018cold storage chambers, and that he had never seen a finer quality of eream- ery butter, adding: \u201cIf you Canadians can send butter like that all the time, you will take a first place in the markets here.\u201d Oanadian Bacon.Canadian bacon is taking a relatively better place in the British markets than it has done hitherto.A great advance has been made during the last two years, and particularly during the current summer.In this product also I found that there is a very great difference between the prices obtained for the finest quality and any seconds, \u201cfats\u201d or \u201csofts,\u201d as they are called.It will pay the Canadiazg farmers to so select, rear and feed the hogs, that they will have a large number of rogs of fairly uniform quality.They should be what are called fleshy hogs.These are obtained chiefly through feeding the young hogs, after they are weaned, on skim milk, or buttermilk and allowing them & great deal of exercise.Then should be fattened on mixed grains, with a quantity of skim milk and buttermilk, or whey, mixed with them.The when ready to kill, weigh from 160 to 18) Ibs live weight.hese are also the pigs which yield the largest profit on their feeding.+ that time they have give na larger increaso in live weight for the amount of food consumed than they could at any later period of their growth.hereT has been a considerable increase in the number of swine fattened in Canada during the summer in connection with | dairying, and the prices during the past \u201cmonth have been remunerative, at oTronto, the No.1 hogs selling as high as six cents per pound live weight.According [to ther actual value for makng hacen fr the they easily practicable to make cheese of as | for the washing of the butter, were in | Brtsh markets, N.1 selected hogs, wejgh- ing about 160 pounds, are wortn about one cent per pound live weight more than those which are too fat, soit or rough.Poultry Stands High.All the poultry dealers whom I saw said that Canadian turkeys were well likel in Great Britain; and why should they not be?The experts declare that their flesh is whiter, sweeter, and of a higher flavor than the turkeys from the continent.The turkeys whould be killed in such a wWdy as to leuve no external blemish on the birds.They chould be plucked so as to leave mo disfiguring marks and no tears on the skin, or suniace, feet and legs should be spotlessly clean.For export they should be packed in cases, and ortidd so that eich case will contain birds of as nearly an equal weight as pos- ibe.In one tiere could be put birds weighing from eight to ten pounds.The number of birds in the cage and the range of weight (namely, eight to ten pounds, or other weights) should be marked on the outside.Another box could contain the birds weighing from ten to twelve pounds, ete.Cock turkeys of large size sell wel] about Christmas time.At other seasons of the year, birds of smaller size, from eight to twelve pounds, are in greater demand.Those in the trade in England isay that there is a good sale fer them from the middle of November until the end of March.There is a large market for chickens of good size and quality, but as yet the Canadian farmers do not supply enough of those for the demand of our cities, ; Eggs Imports Reach $20,000,000.Great Britain imports eggs annually to the value of about $20,000,000.Canadian eggs are gaining in favor.Those arriving this year in cold storage are said to be pleasing very well.The only complaint IL heard was that when the caves were opened, they became very moist, and were ered with dew.As a matter of fact, the cause was when the eggs from the cold storage chamber were exposed to a warm, moist atmosphere, the moisture from the air was condensed on their surface, just the same as the moisture would be condensed on the surface of a glass contain ing ice-cold water.When tne egy cases are left closed two days in a warehouse at the ordinary temperature of the atmosphere, and then opened, the eggs are warmed up gradually.After thar, this trouble which is called \u201csweating\u201d does not occur.It is important that the eggs for export to Great Britain should be collected from the nests regularly, and that only those that are collected regu'ar- ly should be sold to the exporters.When, a mestful iy found at one time, these should not be put with the eggs collected in the usual way.The Rt .Hon.W.E.Gladstone, in a speech at the annual Hawarden flower show, a fortnight ago, dealing mainly with butter and eggs, said: \u201cI find that 1,260,000,000 eggs are laid all over Europe in order to be imported in Eng\u2018and; I cannot help thinking it would be a good thing if five or six hundred million of these eggs were laid at home.Because you may depend om this, that the nearer the epg is laid to the place where it is consumed, the better and the fresher it will be.\u201d With the cold storage from Canada, the hens from Ontario, Quebee, and the Maritime Provinces can lay down eggs im the pantries of the most fastidious in Great Britain, fresh in flavor and fit for any use.The collecting, the packages and the packing must be looked after carefully.Peaches, Psars and Grapes.I was able to arrange for the sale in Great Britain of the trial shipments of peaches, pears and grapes which are to be sent from the Niagara district.For the first year these trial shipments will be sent only, or mainly, to Covent Garden, in London, and to the fruit bazaar, in Glasgow.I saw pears from California arrive in \u2018a very good condition at Covents Garden.; They were sold at excellent prices, amd IT am sure that the Canadian, pears, of higher flavor and rather finer quality, can De delivered in equally goed condition.; Since 1 returned I visited Grimsby, Ont., Inspected fie cold storage warehouse, and had a conference wit tne Suit grows | Who have agreed to furnish fruit for thse trial shipments.There is an excellent crop of Crawford peaches on the erees, a (line and unusually heavy crop of Bartlett | pears, and the promise of a very good crop lof grapes.The fruit growers of Grimaby | have procured a quantity of suitable packages, and a first trial shipment will be sent ; from there next wee.Each fruit will be wrapped in tissue paper.They will be packed in comparatively small trays, holding fiom three to five pounds cach, and these will be put in crates holding about twelve trays each.The outside cases, or erates are constructed to permit of thorough ventilation.The fruit will be cooled in the enld storage building before it is put on the refrigerator cars; a special chamber will be provided on the steamsHips, and every reasonable precaution will be taken to see that the fruit is landed in good condition in London and Glasgow.Full information cf the prices obtained, ete, will be published for the benefit of the fruit growers in Canada, and I am confident that sa large and profitable trade can be developed in the shipment of these fruits to Great Britain.Good Prospects.I saw the members of many firms, and also British oificlals, ant received and \u201cave information on aCnadian products \u201cWhich will help to develop trade along linés Profitable to Canadiairs.On the whos, § think that the cold storage service arranged for by the Minister of Agriculture, marks a distinet era in the place which Canadian products of the most perishable sorts will take on the British markets.The British Press Takes It Up.In addition to conferences with business men and the making of business arrangements, I saw a good many of the newspaper men and women of Great Britain, in the effort to interest them in Canadian products, and in the policy of the Department of Agriculture in promoting their gale in the British Isles.I have no idea as to the amount of space which they gave to discussing this matter in their columns, but articles of an excellent characterfi keenly critical, but on the whole commendatory of Canadian products and the agricultural policy of the Dominion, were accompanied or follewed by editorial articles dealing with the matter from various standpoints.Some of the English papers discussed what the Canadian Government was doin from the point of view of what the lm.perial Government might do for English \u2018 agriculture.The Irish papers, led by the best bacon pigs are those which would, .HI JOUTNEE®, took | ednsidered it chiefiy in reference to (the | + Dublin journals, took the matter up and proposal by the Imperial Government to establish a Ministry of Agriculture for Ireland.The Scottish papers wrote up Canadian resources, Canadian products and Canadian policies from various standpoints, ail of them dwelling upon the fact that British consumers should meet Canadian enterprise by giving a preference to Canadian products over those of foreign countries.Buy the Laurier Edition of The Herald on Monday._ -\" TT ea said to be \u201csweating,\u201d or becoming cov- | AUGUST 28, 1 897.Sickness and mise must succumb to.You Fever.Indigestion.Loss

1897.THE FARMER AND HIS WHEAT, A popular occupation among the grain men now is estimating the probable profits that the farmers will derive through the continued uprush of grain values.The results are in some cases startling.It is figured, for instance, that Canadian farmers are coming in for an increased profit of $20,000,000, while tthe tillers of the soil pcross the line will, it is supposed, get anywhere from $400,000,000 to $500,000,000.While these estimatés are made in good faith enough, they obviously involve a large amount of guess-work.They are made purely on a probable price for the year, and that, of course, is a thing that mo man kmows.As far as Oanada is woncerned, however, it seems reasonably certain that wheat values are going to open pll the way from 40 cents to ¢5 celts over last year, which practically means éigMty- five cent wheat at couniry point& The effect of such a fahicy figure on the early deliveries of wheat Will be interesting.It is a well established fact that the Canadian farmer seldom sells on an advancing market, while on the ollier hand a suspi- rion of a decline brings the cereal out with w rush.A great problem for the farmer this year will bé whether or not He ghould take advantagé of the high prices at the beginning.7 Last year at about this time wheat was at a level where it geemed impossible for it to go much lower.Fis policy was then more clear.But this An almost unusual price prevails, and while the statistical postion of wheat 15 Zer- tainly very strong, there is still the chance year it is going to be different.that a lower level of prices may be reached.At the bëginning, at all events, there is some probability that the demand for wheat will be brisk and the farmer will certainly get the\u2019 benefit of competition among buyers\u2014a CompetTifion whéch is getting keener every year.It was estimated last season that there were 100 more wheat buyers in Manitoba than the year before, and this year there will likely So it 1 altogether likely that for some time to come De a still further increase.the Canadian farmer will Rave mo cause Ti treet cere for complaint.THE PULPIT AND THE PRESS.Is the power of the pulpit on the wane?Has its influence decreased as that of the press has increased?A simple affirmative or miegative reply to this question would come far short of a Correct statement.Undoubtedly the pulpit to-day is not to the same extent as at one time the exclusive source of information for the people.The press, daily and weekly, now furnishes information that formerly could be obtained only through the pulpit, and to this extent the influence of the latter has been restricted.But what has thus been lost in extension has been gained in intension The pulpit, relieved from work extraneous to its proper sphere, has devoted itself with increased energy and effectiveness to its true calling, the moral and spiritual elevation of the people.And in doing pach its own proper work, there is no con- dict between a faithful pulpit and a high- toned moral press.They are not rivals, but allies; the one is the handmaid of the other.Ignorance is no longer claimed to be the mother of devotion, and the information communicated by the press is so much ammunition which the &kil- ful preacher will use in working out his L:gh and tholy purpose.The tite preacher has mo mor?gppreciative hearers tham those who, through the press, have been made thor- pughly intelligent regarding the conditions of society at home and abread; and on the other hand, the best patrons of the press gre they who, through the pulpit, are enlightened to recognize the great doctrines of religion, and quickened to the discharge of the various duties, religious and secular, arising therefrom.Let pulpit and press flirect their fire against the common foe, and the result must be a great moral uplifting of society, more happiness in the homes, more purity in politics, more temperance and righteousness in public life.But the preaching required to-day is of a high order.Just as the intelligence of the hearers has increased, so preaching to be effective must occupy a higher plane.No mouthing of mere pious platitudes will do.Life is too short for that.Eloquence is derived from two Latin words, meaning to speak out.No metaphysical discussion of abtruse doctrine will do.The age is too practical for that.Let there be shortness, No mere propagation of sectarianism, or hurl- ng of ecclesiastical thunderbolis against sense and salt in every sentence.fellow Christians of oiler denominations, | will do.Society is too advanced for that.No mere echoing of the opinions of a few woalthy or influential pewholders will do.People can distinguish between a mountebank and a man.No school girl essay, with no higher merit than profuse reference to stars and streams, fruits and flowers, will do.People want to be fed, not amused, No fierce indiscriminate denunciation of men and things in general will do.Flies are caught with honey, not with vinegar.No Czar-like assumption of authority will do.Men are drawn to good, not driven.No long, soulless discussion of even an important truth will do.Spur- geon\u2019s advice to preachers is a good one: \u201cCut off both ends amd set fire to the middle,\u201d .: The demand of to-day is for men in the pulpit, men of intellect, men who love the right and hate the wrong, and who ere prepared to make sacrifices for the good of their fellow-men, The preacher whose soul is on fire of earnestness, whose heart is full of sympathy with the toil ing, struggling masses of humanity, who has himself experienced the great truths of the Gospel, and who can apply these truths to conditions of society around him, will never lack for hearers.Men and women of all classes and conditions will find in such a preacher the magnetic power of Him who fed the hungry, comforted the sorrowing, healed the sick, and whom the common people heard gladly.And although, to-day, there may mot be in the Canadian ministry a Knox, a Wesley, a Ridley, a Guthrie, a Spurgeon, a Farrar, or a Beecher, there are mot lacking a great host who have the scholarship, culture and grace to make them mighty in opposing the wrong, and in advancing the right, and at no time in the history of the world was the average pulpit talent of a higher order tham today; and further, we say without fear ot successful contradiction, in mo country in the world can there be found a ministry more intellectual or devoted than we have in our own Dominion.There is a beautitul legend told of St.Chrysostom, He was a man of much culture and refinement, yet in the earlier years of his ministry Fe was not remarkable for success.But one night he had a vision.He thought he was in the pulpit.Round about him were holy angels.Beside him was the Lord Jesus, and before him the congregation to which he was to preach.The vision deeply affected him.The following day he mscended the pulpit; he felt the impression of the scene, he thought of the holy angels as if gathered around him, of the Saviour as at his side listening to his words, and beholding his spirit; he became intensely earnest, and from that time forward a wonderful power attended his ministry.Multitudes gathered around him wherever he preached.And though at first he had only the simple name ot John, he came to be known as Chrysostom, the Golden Mouth.And so to-day.Let ministers be less self-conscious in the pulpit, and remember only that there is a heaven above and a hell below, with dying sinners before them, and a living, lov- \u201cing, mighty Saviour at their side, and that their business is to win their hearers from sin to the Saviour, and their words will be borne on wings of fire to the hearts of the people, and the result will be good for time and for eter nity.W.A.M.LAST AND MEECH, Enquete Was Begun Yesterday Into the Back River Shooting Case.The Back River shooting case enquete began yesterday at the Police Oourt.Charles Meech is charged with attempting to murder Bertram Last on August 3rd.The story of the shooting was then told fully in The Herald.Meech is defended by Mr.H.C.St.Pierre, Q.C.Last was the first to give evidence.He said that Meech owed him $740.Of this amount, $650 was for momey loamed, $30 Interest, and $60 for back wages.Witness was given notes by Meech to the amount of $650; on the might of the tragedy the notes were left in his frousers\u2019 pockets.These trousers were left hanging on a peg in his room, which was on the top storey.The witness identified all his clothing, but on going through this pockets could not find the promissory note in question.He positivedy swore that he had left them in the pockets of his trousers that were exhibited im court.He was also shown a bloody handkerchief with a hole ix it, and he identified it as the one he wore around his neck on the night of the tragedy.The clothes worn by Meech and Last on that day were also exhibited and identified by the witness.Detectives Charpentier, Cote and Riopel, and Deputy High Constable Lambert, told of the arrest of Meech and the necessity to fire upon him before they could make kim stop.Detective Cote produced a broken stick with blood on one end of its this, Last thought, was the one Meech used in the assault after the shooting.Restaurant-keeper Rumens, and Island Railway Conductor Belanger told of Last\u2019s removal irom Back River tosthe city in a car.To the Magistrate Last said that Meech bad asked lim to go into the fields to see the harvest.They sat near a tree, and Meech pulled a revolver from his pocket and shot him behind the head.He thought at first that it was an accident, but when Le was shot a second and third time he saw that Meech wanted his life in order to get rid of his debt.Hercule Hogue, a saloon-keeper at St.Louis du Mile End, said that on August 4th Meech came into his bar and talked of the shooting.He asked if the man was dead, and after drinking a glass of liquor started away in the direction of Back River.The enquete was adjourned until next Toestay.\u201cSHOOT THE RAPIDS.\u201d All cars on Notre Dame street route running west

editorial article on the wheat question expresses the opinion that the era of better prices is coming, the long period of depression caused by the constant additional acreage of wheat rendered possible by the extension of railways into new countries and the enormous increase of the tonnage of steamships having come to an end for the present.\u2018The arte of accessible virgin soil is much reduced, the article says, And until the railways in Argentina and other wheat countries shall have been extended, a pause in the increase of production may be anticipated.AN HX M.P.ILL, Toronto,

Front to Make Their Conquest Certain.London, August 28.\u2014A special from Simla says that the Daulatzai tribe of Afridis mear Kohat, descended from the hills in strong force during Thursday night and attacked and captured the village of Ublan, setting fire to the buildings, nearly all of which were destroyed.General Biggs, commanding the forces at Kohat, having heard of the Afridis\u2019 plams, had morning and attacked the enemy.After sharp fighting the Afridis were driven back 4a the hills with heavy losses.The British Joss consisted of one Sepoy killed and a native officer and two Sepoys wounded.Ie is probable that, pending offensive operations by the Government forces, a blockade will be enforced against the Afridis and Orakzais, who are largely dependent upon India for their food supplies.This, it is believed, would tend to compel them to come to terms.The military authorities suggest that after the tribes have heen puvished the occupation of a single fort, called China, in the Bazas valley ever, since they would have to pass under the walls of that fort every six months when migrating from the valleys to the hills or vice versa.The Daily Graphic to-day publishes an interview with General Sir Robert Low, who commanded the Chitral relief expedition on 1895, in which General Low is quoted as saying: \u201cWe have enough troops there to restore order and recapture Khyber very quickly; but it would be unwise to move for three weeks yet if it cam be helped, until the climate is healthier and There will probably, be serious fighting, but the Afridis must be cowed and Tirah must be occupied and a good military road It is not worth while t0 garrison the Khyber Pass with our own troops.\u201d General Low does mot think the Sultan Delieves it is possible that the Ameer was ignorant of the tribe\u2019s intentions, but feels certain that General Gholam Haidar, commander of the Ameer\u2019s troops in East Af- ghanistam, was not.General Gholam Yaidar, he says, is the biggest fanatic in Asia.General Low thinks that the freedom of the press in India is largely responsible for the trouble and opposes the subsidizing of the tribes, which he declares is always a sign of weakness.Simla, August 27.\u2014The Upper Swat tribes on the right bank of the river, have paid a fine of 20,000 rupees for revolting against the Government.General Blood\u2019s column

MacGregor, of the Calgary branch of the Molson\u2019s Bank, who is well known in Montreal, was the victim of a gold brick swindle recently.One day a plausible, and to all appearances responsible gentleman registered at one of the hotels in Calgary and announced himself as a United States Government assayer.He made many friends, and Was well received by the best people in the place.About ten days afterwards a miner came to town, and applying at the bank of which Mr.McGregor is manager, asked to see the latter, and when admitted confided to him that he had made à big strike and had found an immensely rich mine.He then unfolded an old blanket and brought out a gold brick which he valued at about fifteen thousand dollars, and which he wanted to realize upon so as tx obtain sufficient money to.work the mine.He did not mind letting one or two gentlemen into the deal.The manager thought he had a good chance to make some money there, and bethinking himself of the expert, sent [or the latter and some of the gold out of the centre of the brick was taken.and assayed, and found to come up to expectations.Mr.MeGregor then bought the hrick for a good round gum, and as soon as the money wag paid the lucky miner and his accomplices escaped.Shortly after it was found that there was very little gold in the brick, the remainder being brass alloy.Mr.Mac- Gregor has resigned his position 4

Madame Jehin-Prume, violinist; Madame Bourdon, accompanist; M.Dubois, \u2018cellist; M.Re naud, solo pianist.There is every indication of the concert being a most enjoyable one, and under the direction of Madame Jehin-Prume, who.with her accustomed energy and zeal, working hard to make it in every way a great success, there is no doubt whatever of its proving one of the features of the week\u2019s festivities.The Medical Exhibit.The Mayor will open the annual museum Jand exhibition of medical apparatus, etc, ;

it Was possessed 0 several stoves and saloons, also a savant and a barber shop, not forgetting the local newspaper, the Wilcannia Grazier, which was printed weekly, or whenever the editor found conventent, and sold at twelve cents per copy.And the shepherd or squatter who could not have a 1bal good time in such a place must indeed be hard to please.At the time our history opeas the shepherds above mentioned were combining with their ordinary vocations the novel experiment of prospecting.They had but a hazy idea of mining, as the art was quite unknown in that region.They had leard of the wonderful gold regions nf Ballarat and Bendigo, where fortunate prospectors by a.few strokes of the pick, bad discovered hiugel nuggets lo glota® vhich made them rich.And in recent times strange rumors had reached them from the southland of wonderfully rich copper mines in the Pumamoota district of South Australia, while still nearer to them, ir.their own colony, a valuable silver mine hud recently been opened, and was known by the unmusical name of Umberumberka.Here a large mining camp quickly formed, end the new \u201ctown\u201d was designated Sil- verton, Alter prospecting for several days the party were joined by a miner from the new camp of Silverton, distant about twen- trfive miles.They had secured several valuable specimens of ore, some of which they were assured by the new-comer would assay some thousands of ounces of silver to the ton, So they set to work and pegged ou their claims, each of the five men taking a claim of 40 acres, being the iment allowed by law for silver-lead min- ng.But the development of the new mies was very slow.Unlike the yellow Bet] of the gold fields, \u2018it was impossible ;

huts with a broken biscuit tin for a chimney, and huts with no chimney at all, while a house made from sawn timber or galvanized iron was quite a mansion.No inconvenience was felt on account of the weather, as it was always warm, summer or winter, and as for rain, the man who was possessed of a roof and a tank to save the water was indeed fortunate, as often many months elapsed between showers.The ordinary water supply was obtained at a place called Acacia Creek, about eighit miles distant, à dry creek Led shaded by giant gumtrees.The water waz obtained by digging holes in the sand, through which it filtered.This water was delivered in the town at eight shillings per hundred gallons, Occasionally a wind storm of great violence would arise, which played havoc with the miners\u2019 huts, and a common sight after one of these storms was a house blown bodily into the street, while the bed and furniture remained in their original position.One of the most vivid sensations of shantytown occurred about this period.Up to now every mam 1n camp had to act as this own cook and also to do his own washing\u2014which was not extravagant, owing to lack of water.A new -coach line had been established to South Australia, and near the shanty, which served as a coach office, a number of miners loitered one evening, the coach being due from the south, with mails and passengers.Presently the coach appeared on the \u2018horizon, and-those who were expecting news from friends eagerly awaited its approach.Suddenly a commotion arose on the trail, and miners could be seen rushing from their shanties, some hatless and coatless, and calling to their friends to \u201cCome on, Tom or Bill,\u201d and all rushed towards the coach office.By the time the coach drew up at the office almost the entire population were on the street.Then the sensation was explained\u2014it was a Wo- mam ! the first to arrive on the field, and a great cheer went up from the hardy miners.Men were there from all the colonies of Australasia, from Britain and from Ireland, from Canada amd from the Pacific Slope, and as they stood there many a tear welled in the eye, as they thought of their mothers and sisters, their wives and sweethearts, in all the distant parts of the earth.But a change came over the scene, and scarce avother year had passed when this settlement of mines and shanties was literally turned into A Silver City.The Government of New South Wales at length awoke to the fact that all the wealth of the colony was mot comprised in the beautiful shores of Botany Bay, but that in the far west, 700 miles from Sydney, lay a veritable King Solomon\u2019s mines, A municipal charter was issued for the new city of Broken Hill, a lagre area was thrown open for selection of \u2018town lots, and surveyors were despatched to lay out the streets.The magic of the surveyors\u2019 tape and instruments brought joy to some and consternation to others, People who thought they were snugly located on the main street found they were facing a.horrible back lane; some of the \u2018\u2018oldest citizens,\u201d who lhad erected comfortable stone-built shanties, discovered they were located on the middle of the street, and haste, while others, who thought only of the wealth to be earned down in the mines, found themselves possessors of corner lots which for business purposes were worth hundreds of pounds.The Boom in Silver City.Shortly after the incorporation of the city a boom set in in all kinds of business, end the rapid development of the new city was only equalled by that of the mines whose offspring it was, Streets were quickly laid out and permanent build: ings went up as if by magic.Town lots had scarce been registered at the warden\u2019s office, when they sold for large sums of money, and as for mining shares, the presses of the pioneer printers could not turn out prospectuses of new com: panies quick enough.Companies of all descriptions were floated, mines of phenome: nal richness and mines without any mine ral whatever, and it is even recorded that mining companies were floated the ground of which had never been pegged out, and probably had no existence except in the minds of the promoters.\u201cOpen call\u2019 rooms were selling shares all day long, and auctioneers stood on the sidewalks selling shares by the thousands.Miners hurried from \u2018their work when their eight hours shift was done, with their water-bags and bi'ly-cans in their hands, all intent on buying or selling shares.Speculation ran riot everywhere, and the amount of money seemed to be endless.But the boom died out, as all booms do, and while many were richer, some were poorer for it.The city's progress kept on unchecked; railways wers constructed, and water works schemes adopted, motably one of conveying water from the Darling, fifty miles away.Palatial hotels and business blocks arose on every side; hospitals were founded, associa tions formed, schools and collégés erected.Parks were laid out, and beautiful wide streets were asphalted and planted with shade trees.The streets of Silver City were mamed after the various forms of mineral in its mines.Thus, we had Argent street (silver), Crystal, Cobalt, Chloride, Iodide, Oxide, Sulphide and various other ides.Mineral Ore Veins.To any who may contemplate prospecting for minerals, either for profit or pleasure, and who have not the requisite experience, a few hints on the nature of ore bodies may be of interest.Large bodies of ore are almost invariably indicated by the apearance of a dead vol came eruption, the surface usually covered with ironstone.Metallic veins appear originallly to \u2018have been fissures, passing through different beds of rock, and which were subsequently filled in with metallic ores, during the volcanic action of the earth.Ore veins sometimes run horizontal with the surface, sometimes slanting or perpendicular, the latter generally the most profitable to the claim-owner, as the horizontal vein, perhaps only a few inches in thickness, may bass out to an adjoining claim and there develop extraordinary riches.Veins oc curring in comsiderable numbers in a district usually run parallel to each other.Small bodies are frequently found branching off in opposite directions to the parent vein, but usnally terminate or are lost in a few hundred feet from their source, When, in mining parlance they have \u201cpetered out.\u201d These conditions apply generally to gold mining in reefs, as well as to silver, copper, lead or tin mining.Of course the pursuit of alluvial gold is an entirely different story, and altogether different conditions prevail.tye Continued on Page 10.| THE NEW FLAGSHIP, H.M.S.Renown Will Soon Ar rive at Halifax.ONLY ONE OF HER CLASS.She is the Largest Sheathed Battle- Ship Ever Built, ere eat Her Displacement is 12,550 Tons 3nd She Can Discharge 8,230 Pounds of Projectiles Per Minute.H.M.8S.Renown, the huge man-\"o-war wihich will, in the course of a few weeks, arrive at Halifax, with Admiral Fisher on board to take the place of the cruiser Crescent, as flagship of the British North.American squadron, is a first-class twin screw armor-clad battleship, and the only vessel of her class built, or buildizg, her design, which was prepared under the dir ection of Sir W.White, being purely experimental.Her first keel plate was laid down at Pembroke dockyard in February, 1893.: Her launch took {place on the afternoon of the Sth of May, 1895.She is the largest sheathed battleship ever built, and is intended to keep the sea for long periods of time on foreign sitions where dock accommodation is not conveniently accessible.Her principal dimensions are : Length between perpendiculars, 380 feet; extreme breadth, 72 feet 4 inches; load draught of water, 26 feet 9 inches; displacement, 12,350 tons: freeboard, forward 25 feet, amidships 27 feet 3 inches, aft 19 feet 3 inches, She has double bottoms, which extend for more than half her length in the central a total for the four guns of 2,000 pounds of metal.Each of the 6-inch Q.F.guns will fire at the least five rounds per minute, an aggregate for each gun of 500 lbs, or a grand total per minute for the 10-6 inch guns of 5,000 lbs.of metal, Each of the eight 12-pounder QF, will fire ten shots a minute, making a grand total for the twelve pounders of 960 pounds.The twelve 3-pounders, at ten shots a minute for each gun, will total up 389 pounds of metal.It will be seen by the above that the Renown, firing both broadsides simultaneously, will discharge 8,320 pounds of projectiles in one minute.This will not include the eight maxim machine guns, which will be mounted in her fighting tops.The masts of the Renown alone form a most formidable part of whe vessel's fighting equipment.There are two masts.On the foremost are two circular platforms technically termed fighting tops.On the lower fighting top are mounted three 3-pounder Hotchkiss quick-firing guns, whilst two guns of the same type are mounted on the upper top.The mainmast is fitted with one fighting top, from which is worked three 3-pounder Q.F.guns.Above the fighting tops, on the fore and mainmusts, are fitted two additional tops, one on each mast, on which are mounted clectric search lights, each having a lighting power equal to 25,000 candles.An armored belt surrounds each of the fighting and search-light tops, in order that the men employed aloft during an engagement might be proteated from the enemy\u2019s guns.The cost of the gan mountings, torpedo carriage and gear is £61,500, whilst the gun alone cost £40,900, thus making the total cost of the vessel's armament £102,- 450.Even this enormous amount is independent of the cost of fitting magazines, shellrooms and providing projectiles and charges.: The propelling machinery of the Renown consists of two sels of triple expansion engines, each with three vertical cylinders, the diameters of High pressure, 40 inches; intermediate pressure, 59 inches; low pressure, 88 inches.The \u2018high pressure cylinders are fitted with piston valves, and the intermediate and low pressure cylinders with double-posted slide valves.The length of stroke is 51 inches.The engines make 100 revolutions per minute with fore- which are: H.M.S.RENOWN, THE NEW HK ATLANTIC SQUADRON.LAGSHIP OF THY, BRITISH NORTH part, the outside plating varying in thickness, the thicker plates being nearest the lezel, and the plating being doubled in certain places to ensure strength of structure and for gfher purposes.A thick deck arch-shaped section transversely encloses the engines, boilers, and other vital parts, and traverses the ship as far as the double bottoms.,Ç * The frames above the archrshaped middle deck\u2014as it is tedhnicelly termed-ars kept back from the ship\u2019s side so as to form a shelf on which the lower cdge of the armour plates at the sides rest across the ship.At the termination of the middle deck, at either end, are curved steel armor- plated bulkheads, the convex parts in each.case being toward the extremities of whe ship.These bulkheads rest on the lower deck, and extend to the same height as the armor at the sides, forming with it & complete belt and enclosing the citadel, in the foremost and aftermost parts of which strongly armored redoubts are constructed.The lower deck, which is practically the continuation of the middle deck, without \u2018the citadel, is constructed of two plates, each one inch thick; the armor plates, which are all of harveyized steel, vary in \u2018thickness on the cross bulkheads from 6 inches to 9 and 10 indhes, and on the sides from 6 inches to $ inches.At both ends of the ship, out- gide the citadel, the side plating is 7-16 inches thick, except in the wake of the 6-inch B.L.R.guns where casements formed of 6-inch armor, with rear plates 2 inches thick, are fitted.The two redcubts are plated with armor 10 inches thick, as is also the conning tower.The armor plates on the belt and surrounding the redoubts are fitted against teak wood backing and bolted through that and two thicknesses of half-inch plates secured to the frames behind.\u2014 The bottom of the ship has been sheathed with teak wood four inches thick, which will be covered to prevent it from fouling during long immersion.For her displacement, which is 12,350 tons, the Renown has an exceptionally ; powerful armament.These are : Four 10-inch 29-ton R.B.L.guns mounted in pairs in barbettes, ore forward and one aft; these guns are worked from a new type of high-angle fire mounting, enabling the guns to be trained on any object from 30 degrees abaft the starboard beam around the bow, to 3) degrees abaft the port beam.The guns in the barbette aft can be worked under the same conditions, but from 30 degrees before the star board beam, around the stern, to 30 degrees before the port beam.The whole four heavy guns can be fired simultaneously at an elevation of 35 degrees.Besides her heavy gins the Renown carries ten 6-inch 100-pounder Q-F.guns, four in casements on the upper deck and six in casements on the main deck, the latter being on a level with the upper edge ot the armor belting, the upper deck being next above it.The four 6-inch guns on the upper deck are so placed that two can be fired straight ahead and two straight astern.There are five torpedo launching tubes, two on each side, submerged, and one above water at the stern, all fitted to dis charge 18-inch Whitehead and R.G.A.torpedoes.; An idea of the force that the Renown\u2019s guns will have when in action can be gathered from the following: Treh of her 29-ton guns will fire one 500-pound projectile per minute, making ed draught, and develop collectively 12,000, horse power, while with the natural draught they develop 10,000 horse power.Her engines and boilers were built by Messrs.Maudslay, Sohs and Field, at a cost of £83,560, exclusive of £3,135 for auxiliary machinery which was not included in the origina specifications.The total cost of the hull was £601,927.The Renown thas bunker stowage for 800 tons of coal, which will drive the ship 6,500 miles at ten knots an hour; but on emergency, by utilizing the wing spaces, she can stow 1,600 tons of coal, which will enable her to steam 12,000 miles at ten knots an thour without replenishing ther bunkers.The results of the speed trials of the Renown gave considerable satisfaction, more especially as she has proved herself the fastest battleship in the British navy or in any other navy.Indeed, considering her tonnage, a mean speed of 18.75 knot, o na four hours\u2019 continuous run, excecds anything else previously recorded for a battleship.This result is all the more gratifying as it was attained with a very moderate allowance of forced draught, the air pressure in the stoke-holes being less than eighth-tenths of an inch.A gratify- | ing feature of the trial was that the guaranteed indicated horse-power\u201412,000\u2014 was exceeded by nearly 1,000, and this with only eight-tenths of an inch air pressure, thus showing the Renown to be an easy and economical steamer.It ig a noteworhty fact that her mean speed was exactly one | knot above that provided for her when she was designed.For the four hours\u2019 runear of pathy with the oval m + Progress why ot achieved during your Majer on 7 reign, one Expression of mais Ung,\" and hope in the happy res ips oun, 3 be expected to follow ?, AS go enlarging the areg fluence of Women, Ten days ago th ! e sent to Mrs, Clif cooing ' Stl} go brought Under bi \u20ac ;

and ever and anon from some part of the city the great voice of a bell rang out, sometimes triumphant, sometimes desponding.\"A young girl lay on her bed and listened.The blinds of her room were drawn and the windows shut; a long stiff row of medicine bottles looked down at her from the mantel, and a motely group stood on the wicker-table by the bedside.Outside on the roadway there was a layer of dusty straw; und in the next chamber the doctor\u2019s =oft monotonous toues filtered lazily through the air, broken occasionally by the nurse's carcful whisper.A big blue-bottle fly began to buzz fitfully \u2019twixt the blind and win dow pane.The sick girl almost laughed; jt reminded her of the man in the next room.She wondered whether it doctored the other flies; perhaps it was on its way to a patient.The whimsical fancy grew on her.She raised herself weakly on one elbow and began to wriggle her limbs free of the bed-clothes.\u2018Then a fit of coughing seized her; she sat on the edge of the bed, her feet dangling, and pressed her lips against the counterpane to deaden the sourd.À little crimson stream soaked langurously into the soft surface and dyed it a brilliant scarlet, leaving a thin trail behind it from one side of the mouth downward; but she did not notice.She drew herself together with a shiver, and crawled feebly to the window.With all her strength she pushed at the wooden framework, her breath coming and going quickly, but it would not move; the big blue boitle fly, frightened, flewv out from the crumpled blind and far into the room.She crept back to bed.The voices in the next room had ceased; the béll of a neighboring church began to toll slowly, solemnly, and sh shivered again.\u201cTo die, to die\u2014and be buried!\u201d\u2014the words Lbroke from her in a feeble wail\u2014 \u201cto die!\u201d And she was so young; and outside tha gun was shining; .and Death was so cold, so cold.Her mother came into the room.Ter eyes were red with weeping, but she forced her lips to smile.But the girl cried out against it: \u201cT am young to die!\u201d Her breath came in little gasps.The elder woman smiled again.\u201cNo; are better\u2014much better, darling.\u201d The girl looked at her with half-chut, skeptical eyes.The blue-bottle had alighit- cd on the counterpare; she brushed it ruthlessly away; then she pushed her two arms deep down under the bedclnthes.\u201cWhat an ugly dress!\u201d she said, irritably.\u201cAnd I am getting better! You must wear pretty frocks, mamma, now that I will soon be well; put on the red one with the lace\u2014the new red one\u2014and a rose in your hair.\u201d The poor mother shook her head.\u201cNow vou are going to ony-\u2014because I am getting better!\u201d She began to cough.But the paroxyism was soon over; and the bells, too, stopped tolling.\u201cT like pretty frocks,\u201d said the sick girl.Her mother went away to array herself.\u201cAnd I am going to die!\u201d The girl looked with wide-open eves into the semidarkness of the room, then put lier thin hand against ber cheek to feel if it were growing cold, Then she fell to counting the medicine bottles and afterward to watching a thin Jittle gleam of sunlight that had slipped in from under the blind.Presently she became aware that some one had entered the room.She looked up.\u201cA new doctor,\u201d she thought.He was an old man with gray hair and a Jone white heard.He looked at \u2018her so kindly that the tears cams into her eyes.\u2018Then he pushed the hair back from her brow, and she felt a delicious thrill run through her.\u201cY am getling better!\u201d she cried.Te only smiled; but such a beautiful smile; it rippled all over her lite a shower of sundhine.\u201cHow softly vou came in,\u201d she said.He smiled again.\u201cAnd you arc the new doctor \u201d* She leaned luxuricusly back among her pillows.The whole ram was full of sunshine now; it was because the had smiled twice.But it did not try her eyes at all; she By Agnes Grozier Herbertson.XL +070 %SS 84% +%4+++
