engineering students of the Science Faculty to Niagara to see the great power plants there, Short trips have been taken annually to power plants at various places, for the purpose of giving the students a knowledge of the practical work of development in addition to the which he the rooms and laboratories of McGill.The trip to Niagara was a more ambitious undertaking than any of its predecessors, and involved consideraple.outlay on the part of the individual student; but it is doubtful if one could be found who would not say he was satisfied with the result, The time allowed was too short for anything like a complete inspection, but a hurried run through the plants of the four greatest development companies sufficed to give the students an idea of the vastness of the work which lies before the engineer of the future on the Niagara River, which, in less than five miles of its length, has a total drop in water level of 300 feet, and is theoretically capable of developing .500,000 horse-power.Opportunity ~ was afforded for observing the scenic beauties which attract so many tourists to that part of Canada; but these.to the enthusiastic theoretical hears in \u2014\u2014

was so impressed with the young Indian that he used his influence to have him continue his studies under Sir Henry Acland, Bart, then regius professor of medicine.A friendship sprang up between professor and pupil, which long continued.After his course at Oxford, Oronhyatekha married a woman of his own race.To them were born several] children, but only two lived.They have grown to splendid manhood and womanhood.Dr, Oronyhatekha became a Forester while practising medicine in London, Ont.The order then was very weak, and did not offer the attractions it does to-day.It is believed, therefore, that the principal reason he had for joining was because its membership was restricted to \u201cmale whites.\u201d The reflection upon his race was more than he could tolerate.Having broken down the barriers, he became interested in the order and determined to work for its advancement.To accomplish this he was compelled to obtain a high place in the order.This brought him into competition with brainy men, but his superior ability finally landed him in the highest place Forestry has to offer.It was in 1881, when he brought about the reorganization of Forestry, that he was

FIRST COLONIAL BISHOP OF THE } CHURCH OF ENGLAND.The Right Reverend Charles Inglis, D.D., first Bishop of Nova Scotia and first Colonial Bishop of the Church of England, came of a clerical race, his father, grandfather, and great-grand- father having been clergymen of the Church of England.He was born in the year 1734, when his father, the Rev.Archibald Inglis, was living in Glen and Kilearr, Ireland.He crossed the Atlantic, and began teaching at Lancaster, Pennsylvania, in a Free Church school, the Archbishop of Canterbury being its head.In 1758 he recrossed the Atlantic and, at the hands one felt that if he should venture to say the prayers for the King he would be shot.However, he faltered not, but did what he felt to be his duty, and no harm came to him.In July, 1776, the Declaration of Independence was made, and Mr.Inglis realized that there could be no permanent place for him in New York.After consultation with his vestry, Trinity Church was closed, and he withdrew to Long Island.In September, 1776, British troops marched into New York, and the hopes of Loyalists revived\u201d \"Mr.Inglis returned, held a service on Wednesday, but before the week ended, a fire broke out, destroying over one thousand buildings, including Trinity Church, with its library and schools.Rev.Dr.Anchmuty dragged himself to New York to witness the wreck of his property and EE work.It proved too much for the older man, and in March, 1777, he died.RT a RR = 2 | | \u2019 À x I A won sail NEW CHIEF OF THE FORESTERS\u2014Mr.E.G.Stevenson, who succeeds Dr.Oronhyatekha as Chief Ranger of the Independent Order of Foresters.Mr.Stevenson is the gentleman in the hard hat.: (Photograph by Pringle & Booth, Toronto.) 3 at Organization \u2018 EE glis, who accepted it.He was consecrated at Lambeth, on August 12, 1787, by the Most Rev.John Moore, Archbishop of Canterbury; assisted by Bishops Thomas, of Rochester; and Porteous, of Chester.After 29 years as Bishop of Nova Scotia, he died in 1816 at the age of 82.He had had many troubles, but had met them all with quiet, Christian fortitude, and in à manner which left behind him a revered memory.Thus a devotedq Loyalist, who had lost his all through unswerving attachment to his King and country, was rewarded by being placed first on the list of colonial bishops.It is an honored list, embracing the names of noble missionaries who are world-renowned for apostolic zeal and self-denying work.These bishoprics now number close upon one hundred and seventy, to say nothing of the one hundred dioceses in the United States, = the funeral service was held.the doctor belonged.A of the Lord Bishop of London, was admitted to the deaconate and also to the priesthood.Armed with the Bishop\u2019s license, he returned to his home in the Colonies, and in 1759 began ministering to a scattered people at Dover, in the State of Deleware.After a mis- sionary career of six years in this district, he accepted, in 1765, the position of assistant minister of Trinity Church, New York, then described as \u201ca small square edifice,\u201d but having a wealthy and aristocratic congregation.In 1767 he received the honorary degree of M.A.from King\u2019s College, New York, of which institution he became a Governor in 1770.About this time the Colonies were struggling with the Motherland for their independence.The great bulk of the church people were Loyalists, and, as such, suffered greatly as the struggle continued.In the spring of 1776 Washington entered New York.'The Rev, Dr.Anchmuty, Rector of Trinity Church, felt unable, through failing health, to face the troubles that threatened, and withdrew to Brunswick, in New Jersey.Mr.Inglis remainer at his post.On one Sunday he received a message that Washington intended to be present at the church service, and desired the omission of the State prayers, to which request, however, no attention was paid by Mr.Inglis.On another occasion a band of soldiers marched to the church with fixed bayonets and to the sound of fife and drum as Mr.Inglis was officiating.Every- FUNERAL OF DR.ORONHYATEKHA\u2014Scene in the old Indian burying-ground at Deseronto as the coffin contain- i i he f er Chief of the Mohawks was borne towards the family vault.ng the remains of the former ere (Photograph by Pringle & Booth, Toronto.)

in fact, we are a fortnight in advance of most years, but this is often the case when Easter falls exceptionally early.There is no doubt that shawl-like draperies are coming in apace among exclusive couturieres and their clientele.They are charmingly exemplified in velvet, antique, crepe de chine, and all clinging fabrics.But, of course, these old serpent-like skirts or clinging draperies of twenty years ago must be cut by the master hand, for their potentialities for success depend more on the cut and hang of the tabric than anything else.MR.THOMAS JEFFERSON, who will appear at His Majesty\u2019s Theatre in \u201cRip Van Winkle\u201d during the week commencing Monday, March 25th, moire Everything Should Match.The fashionable woman will spend more for frocks and frills for the 1907 This is because consistency in detail has been made the ideal aimed at in the latest modes.Every detail in the attire, from season than ever before.BEAUTIFUL PARISIAN MODELS\u2014The Standard, by special arrangement with the celebrated photographer, Henri Manuel, of Paris, is enabled to present, weekly, to its readers, the newest creations in fashion, posed specially by famous Parisian models.Unlike the illustrations in fashion magazines, these reproductions are from life.The above tailor suit of London check in green and white, is from the Maison Drecoll, Paris.Velvet collar and heavy bone buttons finish the short cutaway coat.BEAUTIFUL PARISIAN MODELS\u2014The Standard, by special arrangement with the celebrated photographer, Henri Manuel, of Paris, is enabled to present, weekly, to its readers, the newest creations in fashion, posed specially by famous Parisian models.Unlike the illustrations in fashion magazines, these reproductions are from life.The above tailor costume of brown and white cloth is from the Maison Dukes et Goire, Paris.Stitched folds of the fabric finish the skirt, brown satin forms the col- | lar and the fan in the sleeve.Bronze buttons are used as a further de- ;

that the outer portions of the entire mass have bulged out, There is land\u2014plenty of land\u2014in the neighborhood of Montreal and on the Island.The needs of the mass is the opportunity of the individual, and the farmer chuckles when the speculators come out to survey his fields.\u201cIt is my time now,\u201d he says to himself.What, have I been obliged to put up with poor prices for many lean years?Have I been despised and called \u2018hayseed\u2019?Have I worked hard all my life to fill the mouths of other people, and shall not my own be now filled?Yea, verily.\u201d And thus he asks, without winking an eyelash, $300 per acre for his farm.That is the actual price which a firm of real estate agents paid for land at the end of Park avenue, in the Annex, recently.\u201cThe

Toronto are coming here to invest their money in real estate.I may tell you that that land for which I paid at the rate of $300 per acre I sold to a Toronto syndicate, which will immediately put it on the market for building purposes.The land is just beyond the C.P.R.tracks on Park avenue, Annex.But this is not the only case of the kind.The Toronto syndicates are busy here.They recognize their opportunity.They see that the city is bound to spread, and they are buying up all the land they can get their hands on.\u201d Enquiries made by The Standard from several of the prominent real estate agents elicited the fact that in every outlying district of the city the price of land had gone up enormously.Those who actually control lands bought from the farmers put up the price in accordance with the demand, so that a plot of ground which would be worth ten cents per foot on Monday is found to be worth double or treble that on Tuesday.Not that anything visible had happened in the course of the twenty-four hours, The land has not been enriched in any way in the interim.There is no sign of population.Yet the agent can show you fresh sales, which indicate the intensity of desire, and upon that foundation he rears the added price.\u201cThere is nothing mushroom-like The farmers who still cling to their AN UNIQUE AND COSTLY RESIDENCE ON ONE OF THE FINEST RESIDENTIAL STREETS OF

utilized to good advantage on each residence.And then he figures up how much he will take for this or that piece of land, how much he will be worth in the course of a few months, and how he will learn to be idle in middle life, \u201cAnd yet,\u201d as another real estate man said to The Standard, \u201cwhen the people get to the country, they find that prices are stiff enough there, too.That is to say, getting to the country cannot any longer mean the economical thing it used to be.Certainly, there can be saving, especially if \u2019 you own your own house, but the price of labor has gone up during the past ten years.Materials are dearer than ever.Between material and labor, you have an enhancement of cost, which is bound to be reflected in connection with all the means of living.The labor unions which\u2019 insist upon high flgures seemingly forget that their members must pay rents, too, and buy butcher's meat, and that, by a law of economics, if they have more money in their pockets, they must spend more to live.\u201cWhat we now see in the country is the solid home, which is to be lived in, in many cases, all the year round.The temporary shack is disappearing, and the country is becoming urbanized by a permanent population.The easy thethods of buying lots and houses are responsible for these new conditions, which are in themselves all right.\u201d Messrs, Craddock Simpson and Co.point out that there is an increasing demand for self-contained houses above Sherbrooke street,and that west as high as the tenant class can pay, that people are flocking to the country, and that the chief thing needed in Montreal, in view of the great possi- city is growing rapidly, that rents are ° ONE OF THE STREETS IN NEW TORONTO\u2014A perspective view of Albany avenue,

where tired citizens find rest and recreation.Tn New Toronto, that is, that portion of the city which has tained houses, Most of the residences shown on this page belong, therefore, to the latter classification.Their graceful lines, broad piazzas, lofty porticos and handsome colonades will appeal to those who have tired of flats, and prefer a \u2018\u2018home.\u201d It is not so many years ago that Toronto, like Montreal, covered a far smaller area than it does at present.The introduction of an electric tramcar service, and the opening up of suburban electric roads, however, had the effect of sending the people away beyond the suburbs.Fields were quickly covered with houses, farm lands ceased to exist; streets were laid out; trees planted; and the rural landscape assumed an urban aspect.In the past decade Toronto has moved its boun- darieg east, west and north a score of times, and the end is not yet.The watchword still is \u201cProgress\u201d; the citys\u2019 bounds are still being further widened; and in a few years more the present: waste places at the extreme north and west will have been covered with beautiful suburban homes, and the \u201cQueen City\u201d will have become one of the largest and greatest cities on the North American Continent.A THE NEW PARSONAGE ADJOINING THE METROPOLITAN weeks since, and is one of the residential ornaments of the low CHURCH, er
