opinion of the Constitutional Reichswehr the Sagasta ministry is gaining strengih.lhe change in the Spanish cabinet, which seemed unavoidable arter the signing of the peace prctocol, has been deterred, if not aito- geiher obviated.Lhe hope is expressed that Sagasta, having thus lar succeeded in warding off danger of a Carlist uprising, may do even better in the future.There is, indeed, considerable confidence throughout informed circles in Vienna that a cabinet equal to such difficulties as the guarding against Carlist uprising and the taking of precautionary measures to prevent a reactionary movement on the part oI troops reiurning from the colonies\u2014 that such a cabinet may also gain the Cortes\u2019 ratification of the peace treaty and triumph over effort to secure its

tells me that when M.Delcasse hears of Germany meddling in American affairs he rubs his hands with great satisfaction, not because he wishes harm to the United States, but because he foresees future embarrassments for Germany.VALLEYFIELD EXCURSION.Mr, Bergeron Says the Conservatives Will Soon Be in Power Again\u2014A Big Pine Imposed.Valleyfield, Aug.27.\u2014~(Special.)\u2014On Wednesday, the Conservative leaders of Beau- harnois County were treated to an excursion on the St.Robinault by the member for the county, Mr.J.G.H.Bergeron.The party.some eighty in number, left Valleyfield for Port Lewis, where they lunched.During the course of the speech-making, Mr.Bergeron informed the crowd that the Liberals were running the country to ruin, and it was only | 8 matter of a very short time before the , Conservatives would be again back in power.The excursion passed .off very pleasantly and all had a good time.Mr.Ovila Gaulry, who nearly killed Mr.Delaronde, as repor*sa in Tuesday\u2019s

for some time past, Les been in negotiation with the gentl of the Seminary, with the object of | curing from them a right of way for\u2019 practicable and safe route for an ele trie trolley railway to the city limits pear the top of the Cote des Neiges! hill, the desire of the company being to operate such a road, if obtainable, and to thus endeavor to effect a solution of the existing dispute between the city end the company.The negotiations are still in progress; but owing to the time of year, may, perhaps, not be concluded so as to permit of much construction work being done before the frost sets in.As the company desires to meet the views of the city as far as is consistent.with their obtaining a safe, practicable route for their railway, I have to submit the following : he company will construct and put fn operation, within six \u2018weeks from the time of obtaining the necessary author- itv, a double track, electric trolley railway, extending the existing double track on Guy street, across Sherbrooke street and up the Cote des Neiges road to Pine avenue, with the necessary Y\u2019s and turn-outs.When the gentlemen of the Seminary have granted a right of way as above mentioned, or when the city has made the Cote des Neiges road safe and prac- ticabe with regard to the grading and to drainage, this route will be extended up to thec ity limits as rapidly as can be done.If this proposition is satisfactory to the citv, the proceedings now in court upon the certiorari from the judgment of the Recorder can be suspended.Yours truly, I.L.WANKLUYN, Manager and Chief Engineer.The letter was referred to the City Attorney.Craig Street Paving.Mr.St.George presented the following report: \u201cI beg to inform you that if the Road Committee decide only to pave one side of Craig street this vear, that in doing so you will run the risk of allowing the water and frost to get in alongside of the rails in the devil's strip, which cannot be made properly water-tight, unless new pavement is put there, as it would be difficult to make it water-tight in renewing the wood blocks, and which would also be an unnecessary expense, as this work would have to be undone next year when you pave the balance of the street.I therefore recommend the committee to pave on both sides of the street, at all events, from Lacroix to St.Denis streets,\u201d A Sewage Farm.The City Surveyor read his report on the visit of the Road Committee to Marlboro, Mass, and St.Laurent.It was as follows: : \u201cI beg to report upon the visit of th Road Committee to Marlboro, Mass, and to

being used he agricultural purposes, owing, no doubt to the want of sufficient land to do soave upon this farm about 15 to 17 acres for a population of about Ï5- 000.This brings the rate to about 1.000 per acre.They have so far found no difficulty in winter time, but, of course, their winters are not so severe as ours.\u2018 In regard to thé farm at St.Laurent, it is the same system as the

before the arbitrators in the freight case.The freight men may have had that fact in view when they agreed to avoid a fight by submitting the question to arbitration, but the passenger men fail to see

AT THE CONFERENCE.Friday Was Devoted to a Private Discussion by the Two Sides.Sener REMOVAL TO WASHINGTON, arnt The Suggestion Does not Meet With the Favor of Canadians for General Reasons, stencils SOCIAL FUNCTIONS AHEAD, \u2014\u2014 Delegates Will be Entertained to Dinner To-day by the Solicitor-General\u2014 Banquet by the City.par (Special correspondence of The Herald.) Quebec, Aug.27.\u2014The fact that the international conference was to be held behind closed doors caused disappointment to two classes\u2014the army of special correspondents who had flocked fo Quebec from American cities, and the numerous deputations interested in the subjects under consideration.The wisdom of this method of procedure has been demonstrated by the most misleading and mischief-making inferences drawn from unofficial Te marks, and with deliberate de- gign to balk the aime of the conference, sent to all parts of Canada and the United States.It is one thing for a commissioner to acknowledge his country\u2019s desire for trade concessions from Canada of a special nature, and quite another thing to impute to him the statement that the American Government's representatives will try to coerce Canada into repudiating the preferential tariff with Great Britain.Mr.Dingley was, to put it mildly, astounded and disgusted at the construe- tion put upon his words, and at the tissue of lies and misrepresentation sent abroad.It would be an unprecedented violation of all diplomatie courtesy for any commissioner to adopt the\u2019 pugilistie attitude which protectionist organs have attributed to one of the representatives.The notion that a powerful republic would take the undignified and childish stand of the small boy, who exclaims \u201cI won\u2019t play,\u201d and that the United States would back out of international negotia- ticns unless Canada would throw over the preferential tariff, is not only false, but highly absurd.If the United States contemplate granting Canada greater trade concessions than are given any other country, it is natural that the United States should expect Canada to reciprocate by according greater concessions than are given to any other foreign power; but Great Britain and the Dominion are not foreign powers to each other, and alien countries.In international negotiations they are not two parties, but one, and that one is the British Empire.The United States is not denling with Canada against Great Britain, but with Great Britain throug Canada.The schoolboy knows enough of diplomacy to understand this.The first trick of those who would defeat reciprocity negotiations by spreading false re- ports-was very badly and stupidly performed.The idea that Canada could be coerced into annexation, or commercial union, was long ago exploded.Protectionists must try a dodge of more recent date.Altogether the holding of the conference behind closed doors has been justified.Tt would be better still if not one word were said outside the doors until the labors of the commissioners come before their respective Governments.Mis- renresentation and false inferences would then be impossible.Removal to Washington.Unless the vest of reasons, satisfactory to both Canada and the United States, are given for the removal of the conference from Quebec to Washington, the proposal will not be favorably received.At various times representatives of the i Canadian Government have gone to Washington on missions of interational inter- Lest, In the matter of trade alone, Sir \u2018Charles Tupper, Mr.John Charlton, Sir Richard Cartwright and Sir Wilfrid Laurier have been oflicial and unofficial delegates to the Capital; and perhaps the fact that Canadians have gone more fre- Quently to Washington than American Tepresentatives have come to Ottawa, has Nad something to do with the erroneous idea that Canada enters into the negotiations as a suppliant.i ; the present conference had been Feld in Ottawa the complaint might have CN made that the - American commis- Sloners were out of touch with the Gow £Timent and interested industries of the United States, A similar complaint may be heard from Canadians if the conference be moved to Washington.On the other hand, it must be recognized thaï the British commissioners, especially the Cabinet Ministers of the Dominion and the Premier of Newfoundland, have a freer hand and are surer of endorsation for what they do than the American representatives, While the United States commissioners may find it necessary to confer With officials of the Washington Cabinet as the discussion of the different subjects proceeds, the Canadian Ministers to whose departments reference might be Décessary are themselves commissioners to the conference, This fact must be taken into consideration regarding the suggested removal.Tt was certainly not anticipated, for several ot tne American commissioners are accompanied by their families in the expectation of remain: À ain ebec for some time.\u201cning in Qu Trade the Important Topic.That reciprocity iq th mportant as well as the most troublesane caestion .on the conference programme goes with- ons saying.Nothing Detter demonstrates the effectiveness of the United States rif in driving Canadian quite Pr doors to Great Britain than the financial rdurns of the last decade D ring the pest

Britain qua whilk Canada has been buying eo | of n&rchandise from the Unie.\\ æ- >a PRICE ONE CENT.for every dollar's worth the United States has bought from Canada, mainly because the proximity of the American market altorded greater convenience than the Briusd.English trade was not catering to Canadian tastes, and there was no advantage to be gained by buying in the old country market.But the preferential tariff corrects and changes this state of dian trade.There is now a distinct advantage to be gained by buying from Brit- isl: instead of American markets.The lowered tariff promises to compensate for the inconvenience of distance, and for the first time the British trader is making a careful study of the peculiar needs of the Canadian market.What is the result ?One has only to compare the advertising columns of any of the large Canadian newspapers to-day with the columns of the same paper ten Years ago.To-day there are twenty English articles advertised for one that was tucked away in an obscure corner in 1887.The change is, perhaps, most remarkable in dry goods, and Canadians will have in mind the recent extensive advertising of ready-made clothing and furnishings by one of the foremost British firms.This is one of the results of preferential trade and American shippers may well be apprehensive of that trad& when it has had time to develop.Preferential trade has come to stay, and the conference will probably show what the American Administration proposes to do to retain Canadian trade for these merchants who have been filling Canadian orders to the extent of $86,587,000 a year.NO SITTING YESTERDAY, But Both Sides Had Private Conferences Preparatory to the Monday Meeting.Quebec, August 29.\u2014The members of the Anglo-American joint high commission spent a quiet but busy forenoon yesterday, each side meeting in private conference utmost reticence is being observed as to although the commissioners in private conversation speak in a hopeful strain.The lamentable death of Dr.Laurier, Sir Wilfrid\u2019s brother, may have an influer.ce on the work of the commission next week, as the commissioners will hardly feel disposed to discuss important ques- tative of Canada.Sir Wilfrid left tor rangements for the funeral of his brother.Sir James Winter also went west last night, to pay a visit to relatives who are summering in the Adirondacks.To-day promises to be an off day.Nearly all the commissioners paid a formal call upon the Lieutenant-Governor at \u201cencer- wood last evening.To-day the Sol\u2018citor- General gives a dinner party in their honor, The City Council has decided to tender & grand ball to the visitors on the evening of September 19th.Captain Spain, R.N., has arrived in towry in connection with the commission.reports that the mackere! catch on the Nova Scotia coast is very poor this year.The Money Was Found.A gentleman from Chicago who was vigiting Montreal this week was unfortunate enough to lose a pocket-book containing a sum of $65.Upon discovering his loss he at once returned home.On the evening following his departure a friend noticed an advertisement in one of the local newspapers, and on equir- ing at the address given, the lost pocketbook was forthdoming.It had been found at Bonaventure Depot, where it had lain on the platform for several hours, by Mr.J.P.Callahan, 56 Univer sity street, who had advertised the same.Mr.Callahan was rewarded for his honesty, and the pocket-book and its contents were on Thursday night express ed to the owner, who will, without doubt, be more than surprised at again seeing his property.Leaving for Victoria.Dr.H.M.Robertson, who for the past year has been one of the house surgeons at the Montreal General Hospital, hag taken his departure for Victoria, B.C.The many friends of the doctor will be sorry to hear this, as he has always been a great favorite both in athletics and in his college work.Dr.Robertson won the athletic championship on McGill sports day in the autumn of °96, and his stalwart form has been often seen supporting the Faculty of Medicine at the Me- Gill annual sports.Again, in musical circles the doctor is well known, having been solo tenor in St.Andrew\u2019s church choir for the past summer.His friends wish him every success in his new sphere of life, and many of them were at the Windsor station at nine o\u2019clock this morn.Ing to wish him God-speed.\u2014 A 16-Knot Service, Quebec, August 27.\u2014L\u2019Evenement gives currency to the report, said to be on good authority, that the Government has In effect abandoned the idea of a fast Atlan- tie mail service, and instead, has begun negotiations with the Allan and Dominion lines for a service of sixteen or seventeen knot boats, which would make the run across in about seven days, instead of the ten or eleven that is now taken.Various figures are mentioned for the subsidy, which, it is thought, will be in the neighborhood of $200,000 or

bravery.T enclose five cuttings from the Montreal daily papers, and upon each of which you will find the date of issue marked.The facts are as follows :\u2014 On Friday, August 12th, Edward Upton went out sailing with two small boys on the yacht Missie, starting from Point Claire, Lake St.Louis, some fifteen miles west of Montreal.Stormy weather came upon them, the lake became very rough, and the yacht capsized a long distance from the shore.Upton succeeded in placing the two boys and getting himself on the bottom of the yacht.With difficulty this position was maintained for more than an hour.No one observed the accident from the shore, or, if they did, did not at any rate proceed to give assistance.A.steamer passed by them at no great distance, but they were either unobserved or the giving of assistance was neglected.\u2014 3 THOUSAND Unsolicited testimonials on file at our office.Would you like to look them over?They come from all classes of the community \u2014from the

the only chance to save the lives of the two small boys with him was to swim to the shore at Nun's ls- land and secure a hoat with which to rescue them.He swam more than a mile through the rough water, obtained a boas, and returning saved the boys from perishing.When he reached them they were about exhausted with the cold and almost continual immersion.Under all the circumstances surrounding this case, I venture to express the opinion that your society should favorably consider this application for recognition, Upton\u2019s act being one grat risk and exhibiting a rare devotion in seeking to make sure the saving of two young lives.For himself, it may be said further, that he could have maintained his position on the upturned yacht for a considerable time, and during which the wreck would have drifted within an easy swimming distance of the shore.He, however, risked his own life in swimming what can be estimated as a very great distance when the rough condition of the water is taken into account.I am able to say, in conclusion, that your investigating committee will find a very general opinion current here that this act is worthy of your society\u2019s recognition, and that Edward Upton should be honored by having conferred upon him the humane medal, which is given to those for conspicuous bravery in saving life at the risk of their own.Youns truly, Henry

of life\u2019s blessings, than would have been possible had no previous ailment existed.This Is well illustrated and verified in the following letter: \u20ac7 Pleasant street, Lowell, Mass,,

Otta7a i ogo © © ABOUT SPORTS Xt AND SPORTSMEN.© 2 = © A most remarkable change has come o'er the spirit of the Ottawa footballer\u2019s dream.Last year the club was expelled from the Quebec Rugby Union for good and sufficient reasons.At that time the Ottawa club swore eternal vengeance on the heads of the members of the Union and said that the Union would come 15 a speedy rain.Of course, they were heated at the time, and many foolish remarks were made.The more sober-minded knew the matter would blow over, and The Herald went so far last fall as to predict (hat the Ottawa club would soon be knocking for admission at the doors of the Quebec Union.This they are doing now.Vf course, the story goes that \u201cprominent footbaliers of cther clubs think they shoud be invited back.\u201d This is just the manner in which we would expect the Ottawa men to work up their agitation.None of vs, however, for a moment doubted but that it was the great desire of the ex- elled club to get back\u2014more so, in fact, han it was any anxiety on the part of the other clubs to ask it to return.ut, however that may be, it would do tbe Quebec Rugby Union no harm to accept a request from the Ottawa «lun fer reimn- statement in the ranks.The club, however, will have to do the askinæ, as it is hard to imagine how the other clubs would ask the suspended «ub to come back to the fold.If the Ottawas will just own up that they are anxious to juin us once more, notwithstanding the abuses they heaped on everything fvotball down this way last fall, and ask for admission, it is not likely the other clubs will offer any great objections, The treatment Mat was meted out to the Ottawas was thoroughly deserved by them and to take thein back now would not mean anv retrogression on the part of the Union.The lesron will prove a salutary one.And, anyway, the Union etill holds the same weapon with which to keep sports pure.A new plan of centreboard has been invented by Joseph Northup, a veteran boat bujlder, of Greenpoint, and a member of the Williamsburg Yacht Club.Nor- thup is at work om a sloop which will be fitted with the new invention, and it is proposed that its simplicity and effectiveness will be easily demonstrated.The aew board is in two halves, and when let down into the water it Gomes fogether somewhat like a folding door.lt works within two slots, one at each end, and is held by & pin bolt on friction rollers.The bnard or boards can be raised or lowered by means of a rod connected by a pin near the centre hinge joint, the rod passing up between the two midShip ends of the board.Another advantage claimed by NortRup is that his invention does away with the old trunk slot which heretofore has been such an obstruction in the cab®s of all centreboards of the old type.The new board folds easily up into the keel and can be scarcely noticed by those in the cabin.A further advantage claimed ior the new wrinkle is that when it happens to strike an obstacle under wafer the hoat's speed 18 not in the least affected.The new sloop, which is to have the honor of introducing the innovatisn, measures thirty-eight feet over ail, with a waterline of twenty-nine feet.Her beam will be thirteen feet and her keel will be twenty-four feet.The cabin will have sleeping accommddations for about a doz- er.and altogether, should the new centreboard prove anything of a sucress, it wiil peraaps, mark a new era in the wor of sloop sailing, The Canadian Wheelmen\u2019s Associati did a good stroke of business for ssl on ictoria the other day when it had a cab- man fined $50 and costs for crowding a cycHst Into the ditch.This js tha ciass of work the association is continually doing for its members and in which it should be encouraged by a large membership ome cabmen

deliciously cool and brisk weather of the early fall months, The exhibition of consummate skill with a shotgun lately given by Rolla Heikes of Dayton, O., now the champion target shot of the world, are something to marve} at.During his practice work, prior to his match on August 13, last with Fred Gilbert, of Spirit Lake, Ta.Mr.Hetkes did some really wonderful work.The conditions are: 50 targets, unknown angles; 50 targets, expert rules, »ne man up, end 25 pairs; 150 targets all told, at three different stvles of shooting.In the match itself Mr.Heikes broke 140 out of the 150, a great piece of work, but he surpassed that total on no less than three different occasions while in practice, breaking 143, 144, and 146 respectively.The curious part of the total of 146 is that it was made while shooting a friendly race for practice with Gilhert himself on the Thursday before the race.In that race Heikes broke all his targets at unknown angles, and all his targets at expert rules, making a 100 straight.He then ran thirteen straight in the pairs, losing the second target of his seventh pair, making his total run one of 113 straight, and finishing thd 150 targets with only four lost out of the number.This score, although it was mada in practice, will stand a long time hefore it is beaten.From the above totals it will readily be seen that Mr.Heikes has thoroughly deserved the honorable title of champion.POREODOSDOD © GP ODDGDOGDOE > ¢ Plate ae ¢ $ © ® ; that wears 3 3 \u2014that's the kind to buy, especi- & i ally as it can usually be pur- © © chased at almost the same

management.liaving learnt all that wag i | | | to be learnt of the ways and salfng of boats, Mr.Duggan, then a boy at sanvoi turned his attention to their construcuou.Lie set to work swgie-handed to buiid a yacht, and was Sucuessiul 10 the Venture.Lhe forerunner of the series of boats which have made Mr.Duggan £a mous 38 a builder and designer wus tq Escape, a roomy crait, strong and comfort able, though lacking in speed.Mr.Duggan\u2019s tastes and abliity being plainly in the direction of engineering he was sent to the Schoo! of Science where he set to work to master the Stub ject, completing his course by carrying i off the gold medal.He at once began Lie as an engineer, and while a very young man was given charge of a party in cop.nection with the Canadian Pacific Rajl.way construction in the Rockies.Mr.Duggan was the organizer of the ol Toronto Yacht Club, which, a few yeury ago, amalgamated with the Royal Canadian Yacht Club.irom the tine of the organization cf the Club until his engineering work took him out of the city, he held the position of captain, his popular.lly weing exceptionally great among the boating pecple.His actual work as a yacht designer was not carried on to any extent tiil his removal to Montreal.He had charge of the famous yacht Cygnet during the last season of her ownership by Mr.H.C.Dennis, when she went up Lake Erie and won a series of glorious victories.He designed and built the Glencairn, and was, in fact, the first to introduce the half-rater style, and won the Scawanhaka Cup with her.\u2018Among other boats he designed were the sloop oe, Bug, an open cat boat, with a centre-board, of 21 teet over all; Valda, a centre-board sloop of 27 feet over all; Viking, Lionel J.Smith's cutter-yacht, of 41 feet over all; Xania, Vreda, Esca ade; the half-raters Sothis and Ethe which have both gone to Hamilton, and the Jamboree, Huda, Edna, Microbe, Frixie and Hilda.Mr.Duggan was also the designer of Upstart for Mr.H.D.Ellis.She is now owned by Mr.MoMerrick.The Upstart is the winner of many races.AH the energy which other men spend in various pursuits of amusement or dissipation, Mr.Duggan devotes to yacht des'gning and sailing, and the growth and importance of the Royal St.Lawrenca Yacht Club is in a great measure due to the unselfish maner in which he has devoted his time and skill to its interests.He was one of its founders, its vice-com- modore and commodore, and a member of the committee which called the first meeing of the Lake Yacht Racing Association.ELECTED LIPTON A MEMBER.London, Aug.26.\u2014Sir Thomas Lipton, the challenger for the America\u2019s Cup, has been elected a member of the Royal Clyde Yacht Club.Bout de l'Ile.Amother grand excursion to Bout de I'Tle Park has been arranged for Sunday next, the 27th inst.Return tickets hy the Belt Line Railway, 25c¢;

WIN New York Papers Agree that the Hamilton Colt Was the Fastest In the Big Event, \u2014 THE PREVIOUS WINNERS Interviews With the Owner, Trainer and Jockey Who Were Responsible for the Victory.There is a general agreement among the critics in the New York papers that Marti- mas was the best horse in the Futurity.Apart from the delay at the post, it was a truly run race, and those that could run fast enough were able to get to the front.Most reports of the race were in error , in stating that the delay of an hour and thirtv-two 1ninutes at the post was the longest on record in America.The longest delay was at Saratoga when Secretary Wheatly\u2019s son was starter.That was two nours and ten minutes, and it is a remarkable coincidence that the winner of that race was Biggonet, the dam of Martimas.Martimas carried 118 pounds, but h due weight was really 115.Mr.Hendrie\u2019s claim for the three pounds\u2019 allowance was put in too late and was not accepted.The fuil conditions of the race were : The Futurity, a sweepstake for two- year-olds; by subscription of $20 each, or only $10 if the money be sent with the entry, for mares covered in 1895, and of $50 each for the produce of such mares | unless struck out by July 15, 1897, or $100 unless struck out by July 15, 1898; all starters to pay $250 additional, all of which shall go to the second and third horse as further provided; the Coney ls- land Jockey Clif to add $8,750; the second to receive 51,000 of the added money and two-thirds of the starting money; the third $500 of the added money and one-third of the starting money; the breeders of the winner, of the second horse and of the third horse, namely, the owners of the mare at the time of foaling, to receive $2,000, $1,250 and $500 of the added money, respectively, whether they be the owners of the horse when the race tales place or mot; winners of $2500, 3 lbg.; of two races of $2,500 or one of $4,500, 7 lbs.; of four of $2,500 or two of $4,500, or one of $9,000, 12 lbs.extra; the produce of mares or stallions which have not produced a winner prior to January 1, 1896, allowed 3 lbs.; of both (mare and ! stallion), 5 lbs.; maidens allowed 10 lbs, which aliowance shall not be cumulative; Futurity course, 170 feet less than six furlongs.; Entries closed on the 2nd of January, 1896, with 894 nominations, of which 212 declared at $10 each, 81 at $20 each, 142 at $60 each, 81 at $70 each, and 241 were void.From 1888, the vear of its inception, to 1891 the Futurity\u2019s distance was three- quarters of a mile.In 1892 the distance was reduced to what is called the \u2018\u2018Futurity course,\u201d it being 1,263 yards and The highest number of starters was twenty-three in 1889 and this year, the smallest field being ten, in 1896.Eddie Whyte is the youngest man who ever prepared a Futurity winner.Martimas, the winner, nets for his owner the snug sum of $37,130.High Degree wins for John Dily $4,833.33.Mr.Tlay wins for Sydney Page $2,416.67.The breeder of the winner, C.J.Enright, Kentucky, takes $2,000 and the breeders of second and third \u2014Gideon & Daly, of New York, and_J.B.Haggin, of California\u2014$1,250 and $500 respectively.New York Sun\u2014>Mariimas won pulling up by three lengths.Then the Aoral horseshoe was brought out, and as Jockey Lewis was in the act of getfing into it for the usual moment of triumph a pretty woman pushed her way through the crowd, hold Ing aloft a girl of three years.\u201cPapa!\u201d the little que cried out, throwing a kiss to Lewis.\u201cPapa, gimme a flower?\u201d Lewis smiled at his little daughtar and rew a rose to her.Then he was liffed en the shoulders of several mea and took HERALD BULLETIN ANNOUNCEMENTS.\u201cDarkest Russia\u201d Theatre Francais, ALL NEXT WEEK.gy a = Vers Wash te rte = off his cap in acknowledgment of the ovation from the crowd.The Owner and Crainer.New York Jlerald\u2014Mr, W.Fendrie, tie owner of Marumas, was very enthusiastic over the victory of his colt.TL mat lum 1n the paddock directly after the race, where 15.Whyte, the trainer of \u2018he winner, was \u201ccooling\u201d out the speedy son of Candle- mas and Biggonet.Rushing over to Whyte with outstretched hand, Mr.Hen: drie said: \u2018\u2018Kddie, I congratulate you.\u201d 1 aslkked Mr.Hendrie if he expected his horse to win.He replied: \u201cl always thought he had a good chance.He has always impressed me favorably in his work and in his races, and I felt that if the track were dry his chances were second to none.He cannot run on a heavy track, and his poor work in the mud at Saratoga was due to his dislike of heavy going.\u201d E.Whyte, the trainer of Martimas, took the victory of his charge in a matter-of- fact sort of way.He said: \u201cI thought months ago that if the track was fast ou the day of the race, Mærtimus would win.His work was always of a superior kind, and his victory is in no way a surprise to me.Martimas has started six times this season.He has finished first four times, second once and unplaced onez.The only time he failed ta get inside the money was at Saratoga on a heavy track.\u201d Harry Lewis, who piloted Martimas to victory, was a happy jockey.His face beamed with delight ad good nature when he returned to the dressing room after t'a race.In describing the success of the colt he said: \u201cWe got away from the post in fourth position, Martimas running nicely.[ did not attempt to make my bid for first place until passing the bend into the stretch.At \u201cthat point High Degree was | leading by two lengths, but was waddling.As Martimas was full of running, I felt confident he would win, and then decided to cut him loose.He ran like a wild horse.He gained on High Degree at every jump, and when will into the straight had a comfortable lead.The others gave me no concern, and the colt won easily.Martimas\u2019 victory was not a surprise to me, I had ridden him before, and knew what he was capable of doing.I picked him as the wix- ner of the Futurity two months ag.\u201d Tod Sloan said he did not Dbeewe the best colt won, and blamed Lewis for cutting off his mount, Dr.Eichberg, just after the flag fell.Look Out for Canada.The New York Herald says editorially\u2014 \u201cThe rich Futurity Stakes were again yesterday won by our friend \u2018the rank cut- sider,\u201d that familiar dark horze that, as usual, comes galloping down the course ahead of the field, despised before the srart and hurrahed over at the finisn.\u201cJust think of it\u2014Martimas, a Canadian colt that went begging for offers 2t seven hundred and fifty dollars when he \u2018vas sold as a youngster, and when he dared to show up at the starting post for the Futurity was laughed at to the tune of forty to one in the betting ring.But he \u2018got there\u2019 all the same and won nearly forty thousand dollars for his owner!

Toronto, August 27.\u2014The thoughts of adian Methodism are now turning Ce the General Conference of the Methodist Church of Canada, which opens in the Metropolitan Church in this city on Thursday next.The General Conference is the legislative body of the Canadian Methodist Church.Its functions are distinct from those of the annual conferences, one of which met in Montreal a fow weeks ago.The Canadian Methodist Church embraces eleven conferences\u2014To- ronto, Hamilton, London, Bay of Quinte, Montreal, Manitoba and North-West, British Columbia, and Japan, composing the western section, and Nova Scotia, New Brunewick, and Prince Edward Island and Newfoundland composing the eastern section.These conferences meet annually for the stationing of ministers on circuits within their conference boundaries, the reception and discussion of reports on the church\u2019s work, and the settlement of questions of a local nature.The annual conferences have no legislative power.This belongs exclusively to the General Conference, which meets once ini four years.That which meets on Thursday next is the fifth General Conference since the consummation of the union which brought the several branches of Method- fsm in Canada and the Bible Christian Church into one as the Methodist Chureh of Canada.The General Conference is composed of delegates elected from the annual conferences.The only ex-officio member of General Conference is Rev.Dr.Carman, the general superintendent.Each ' Annual Conference elects one ministerial delegate for every twelve ministers in full connexion, and an equal number of laymen, There have been two hundred and eighty-six delegates elected this year.Of the one hundred and forty-three minister- jal delegates elected to this Conference seventy-eight were members of the last Conference, while fifty-six of the lay delegates for this year were at London four years ago.Montreal Conference Delegates.Montreal Conference at its June session elected thirty-six delegates, eighteen ministerial and eighteen lay.Thir names are as follows 1\u2014 Minssters\u2014E.B.Ryckman, D.D., W.I.Shaw, DD, LL,D., T.G.Williams, D.D,, A.C.Courtice, B.A., D.D., Thos.Griffith, M.A., Ph.D, S.P.Rose, D.D., Hugh Cairns, J.E.Mavety, Francis Chisholm, David Winter, W.Timberlake, James El- lictt, B.A., W.H.Emsley, T.J.Man- gel, S.G.Bland, B.A., F.G.Lett, W, J.Hunter, D.D., W.Jackson, D.D.Laymen\u2014John Torrance, Samuel Finley, Charles Morton, Abraham Shaw, Dr.La- vell, B.M.Britton, Q.C., M.P., James Bissell, W.A.Whitney, M.A., J.R.Lavell, Judge John Deacon, W.W.Stumbles, W.H.Lambly, Col.Moore- house, W.Gliddon, W.W.Dalgleish, John Trenaman, J.H.Carson, H.Hughés, Since the first circuit rider crossed from the United States over a hundred years ago, and preached the first Methodist sermon in Canada, the history of Canadian Methodism has been marked by a steady growth.Churches of other denominations were already to be found among the hardy settlers of Ontario's wilds, but Methodism found a welcome.She sent out her local preachers and ex- horters to the farthest limits of the habi- tated places to preach the Gospel and or- ! ganize churches.Scarcely had the brave pioneers, pushing further into the forests, established their homes before the voice of the Methodist circuit rider was heard among them.Preaching appointments, visited by a local preacher once in a fori- night and often only once in a month, rapidly developed into self-sustaining churches, to send out in turn a corps of earnest local preachers and exhorters to extend the bounds of Methodism wider et.Though a comparatively poor church, lethodism, through the missionary zeal and self-sacrifice of her members, soon pushed to the front and became, numerically, the strongest Protestant body in Canada, a position she still maintains.The report of the conference statistician, Rev.Dr.Cornish, on the growth of th \u2019 : e church during the past quadrennium will be watched for with interest.The report is not complete at the present time, but figures already made public by Dr.Cornish show an increase during the quadrennium of 19,584 members.The in- grense for the preceding quadrennium was The Growth of a Year.The following extract from Dr.Cornish\u2019s report shows the Increase for the year past I.MEMBERS, (a) Western Secti in i and Chis ection, including Japan Members, 1° ference, 1898.1897, Inc.Dec 1.Toronto 43,318 42,379 999 2 London «47,783 47.476 307 *!

time spent in the min- imry is 36 years.\u201d The Responsibility of Pastors.| The decrease in the increase shown by ; the statistics of the quadrennium is causing leaders in Methodism some anxiety.Rev.Dr.Courtice, editor of the Christian Guardian, in discussing this question in a recent number of that paper, says: \u201cWe venture that no such decrease of increase could take place in Wesley\u2019s time { without heart-searching.There is no need \u201cor call for the repair or increase of our ecclesiastical machinery to remedy this condition of affairs.Surely we are organ ized to the full.In part, the explanation of our decreasing power is the increasing attention that we are giving to organization and machinery.In part, it is due to a new atmosphere created by a false liberalism in practice and thought, observant in Sunday secularism, forgetfulness of the Lord\u2019s Day, materialism and reckless criticism in thought and theory.In part it is due to dependence on \u2018special and professional evangelists\u2019 for revivals.We have said nothing against evangelists, but we have again and again warned the Methodist Church against the weakness which must result from her pastors failing to be everlasting evangelists.Every pastor must be quietly and persistently persuading men into the kingdom by ones, twos and threes, in this.\u201cSpiritual revival is what we need.Our pastors must be revived, and then our class leaders and local preachers.Our lay helpers and officials in spiritual work must come to the front with revived zeal and love and power.Our closets and family altars must be touched with revival power.A widespread spiritual ardour of this type is the pressing need of th , church to-day.There is usually enough of : religion among us to conserve, at least for our own benefit, the most prominent portions of the church\u2019s enterprise.The pulpit is still supplied, the Sunday school has its official staff, the temporalities of the and dozens.The pastors must be failing | e | | church are managed with a skill acquired ! .in the commerce of the world, and conferences and conventions abound, drawing their speckled and spotted

schoolman to envy.Mr.Curzon thrusts and parries so swiftly and skilfully at the critics of the Government that the dazzle of his sword almost hides its failure to strike home.Lord Salisbury takes rather more conspicuously than usual his favorite attitude of the disdainful grand seigneur unmoved by popular and parliamentary agitation, and departs to the Continent on another holiday.Yet the fact remains, as Sir Edward Grey, the \u201crising hope\u201d in foreign affairs of the Liberals, said the other day, that \u201cthe common belief that somehow or other British interests are being squeezed in the Far Fast grows stronger.There is a feeling of depres sion, an idea that things are getting darker.And the strain intensifies.\u201d Mr.Balfour\u2019s and Mr.Curzon\u2019s dialectics are interesting to read on the shady veranda of a country house.If both are defending a weak case, their plight sharpens their ingenuity until they make debate in legislative assemblies seem still a fine art.But the bare facts, even as they slip over or around them, and still more as Englishmen read them in the newspapers, weigh far more heavily with public opinion.The comparatively pa'ssive interval between the strain in Chinese affairs last winter and the present stress has given opportunity to examine the concessions to Great Britain, of which the ministers made so much, and upon which they still fall back re- liantly.The result is not reassuring.The text, for example, of the agreement of the Chinese Government, that it would alienate no territory in the Yangtse valley to European powers or permit their intrusion there to the disadvantage of Great Britain, shows it to be a singularly vague pledge even as Oriental pledges go; while the hesitancy of the Cabinet to treat the valley as the articular sphere of British influence in China, as though rival powers were not already preempting their spheres there, does not increase its strength.The right to trade along the Chinese rivers brings some benefits, but according to the merchants on the ground, these still depend to a degree upon the opening of mew treaty ports along the inland waters.What will be done with Wei-Hai-Wei is still uncertain; but its acquisiton has not increased British prestige at Peking or counterbalanced the seizure of Port Arthur by the Russians in the eyes of continental Europe.In the Tsung-li-Yamen, the proverb that the English bark but do rot bite is said to find more and more currency.Indeed, the only concessions received by England that have come un- sdathed through subsequeqü inf destitys tion are the grant of land near Hong Kong for the greater security of that colony and the control, at least through the life of Sir Robert Hart, of the customs service, The Door Not Closed.As for \u201cthe open door,\u201d Mr.Balfour as right for the moment when he says that nowhere except at Port Arthur and Tali- enwan has it yet been closed; but even he cannot quite evade in debate the multiplying signs of preparation to close it.The apprehensive need not fall back now upon the general commercial policy of the continental powers.They can cite speci fic evidence in China of their desire to | ecrowd English trade out of old markets and exclude it from new.English capital is ready to build a railway connecting Peking with the northern treaty port of Niu-chwang.Russian influences forthwith persuaded the Tsung-li-Yamen to impose conditions that the projectors can hardly accept in prudence, and English diplomatic interposition seemingly goes for naught.For Niu-chwang lies in Manchuria, and Russia, unlike its rival, has not hesitated to preempt a sphere of influence there.An Enfish syndjcate, it hag just transpired, as long ago as last February meditated the building of a vail- | way in Shang-tung, the province back of Wei-Hai-Wei and Kia-Chau.The German Minister at Peking warited the Chinese Government that German capitalists claimed a \u201cpreferential\u201d right to such operations, and again an English protest was of no effect.Report of a projected English railway of insignificant length in the neighhorhood of Canton straightway inspires rumors of a French protest.It enters the potential sphere of influence in the southeast that they are preparing to map out at the Quai d'Orsay.Moreover, while English capital for railways may not enter unquestioned the.sphere of Russia or of France or of Ger.| many, theirs, for the same purpose, ig seeking a way into the Yangtse valley which the English Government hesitatze to preempt.The projected road from Peking to HanKow is the most important of the pending schemes for railways in China.It will be a trunk line, connecting the capital with the central provine- es and the valley of the Yangtse.The funds for its construction are to come from Russia, France and Belgium: Russian and French diplomatic influence has had much to do with the obtaining of the concession.The line is likely to be built speedily, as speed goes in China, and by it the two powers will gain both political and commercial footing in the valley of the Yangtse.Wavering between the policy.of \u201cthe open door\u201d for all China and the aceeptance and the maintenance of spheres o influence, England has thus far only watched {his scheme of its rivals, and perhaps made a few more representations at Peking.At the moment, English capital seems secure only in the possession of a very rich mining concession in Shan-si and of the right to extend the Burmah Rail- There PORTS way into southwestern China\u2014a very difti- cult, costly and remote undertaking.The Growing Discontent.The more these results of Lord Salisbury\u2019s policy in China for the last eight months are discussed the wider and the sharper grows the discontent with them.A few months ago it was confined to a relatively small body of extremists, professional jingoes and prophets of evil.Now it has spread through both parties, the newspapers and publie opinion.The Liberals have not been sparing of censure of the Government, but its own followers have outdone them.Scarcely a newspaper mn London defends the Premier\u2019s policy.In recent bye-elections, where the Cabinet\u2019s policy in China has been made a conspicuous issue, the polling has shown the popular dissatisfaction with it.It has taken time for English opinion to realize the nearly incalculable future value of the markets of China, to understand that the contest for the possession of them is already beginning, and that it is becoming the most vital part of a similar contest in all the remote and undeveloped markets of the world.It was indifferent to continental taunts at English weakness in China until English reverses there brought them home.It has been slow to admit, until observers on the ground had repeated it time and again that .the Russians have an almost instinctive skill in the manipulating of Chinese officials at Peking and in the ruling of Chinese peoples in Manchuria, and that Russian agents have no scruples over methods of persuasion, singularly effective in the Fast, with which many Englishmen refuse to soil their hands.The progress of events has been necessary to sharpen the contrast between the persistent vigor and the consistency of Russian policy and the hesitation and drift of English.At home and abroad, to quote Sir Edward Grey again, \u201cthere IS an impression of weakness because there has been a lack of initiative, of life, of energy\u2014of personality, if you like to put it so\u2014in the conduct of our foreign policy.\u201d British Prestige.Even those who believe that Lord Salisbury will still keep the door open and ultimately reatore British prestige 4 China can only profess their faith and wait impatiently, while the suggestion in his speeches of detachment from public opinion at home and even from British commercial interests in China\u2014an infirmative of temperaments more apparent than real\u2014is steadily lessening the number of the faithful.And yet the course of events, if not the prevailing discontent, is gradually modifying the policy of the Government.\u201clhe open door\u201d still plays its part in speeches, but the English Minister at Peking is us- suring the Tsung-li-Yamen that England will support China, if it chooses to grant concessions to Englishmen and protect them in their privileges.Talk of maintaining the integrity and the autonomy of the Chinese empire is yielding to more practical discussion of its future, not with Peking, but with St.Petersburg, Paris and Berlin.The open doar\u2019 may be worth the price of war, as Sir Michael Hicks-Beach declared in January, but an understanding between the powers concerned might be less costly.In a word, the policy of the open door is gradually becoming the policy of the sphere of influence.For the moment Lord Salisbury is seemingly trying to drive them both forward, but he is nrging the latter the more vigorously.Nu sane observer in England or on the Continent yet sees occasion for war in the rivalries of Great Britain and Russia in China.The stake is still too low.Neither sfde, however inevitable it may regard the conflict, is ready or will be ready for it for years.None the less the slow substitution of the clearly marked sphere of influence for the vague open door is an obvious precaution against such a future contingency.° ALLANS MIGHT TAKE IT, Contract For the Fast Line May Pass Into Their Hands.The Disquieting Reports Sent Out From Quebec Command Little Attention in England.Toronto, Ont, August 26 \u2014(Special.)\u2014 The following is a special cable to the Evening Telegram: The scheme for a French-Canadian mail service, a proposition which for a long time engaged the attention of the Governments interested has collapsed.It was found impossible to ration of such a service, in consequence of which the scheme falls through.The Allan Steamship Company is in correspondence with the Dominion Government looking to the assuming of the contract Petersen, Tate & Co.were unable to fulfil.It is the opinion here that the Canadian Government should not enter into another bargain till the question of a fast Atlantic service and the best means of securing one has been discussed in the Dominion Parliament.Rumors of obstacies in the way of the Quebec conference arising out of an alleged disineiination on the part of certain American commissionërs to make any reciprocity arrungemenis till Canada abandons her British preferential tariff, are not seriously entertained by the Daily News.The News, commenting editorially on the conference, says very little importance can be attached @ the report that a hitch has occurred.The directors of the Milford Dock Company expect that negotiations will shortly be concluded whereby a line of steamers may be established between Milford and some Canadian port.Fire in St.Henri.Fire broke out in Mrs.John Mathieu's gum factory at the corner of Albert and St.John streets about twelve o\u2019clock yesterday, and caused damage to the amount of about $300.An alarm was rung in to the St.Henri Fire Department, and they quickly resvonded, but the flames had made considerable headway, and were bursting out of the doors and windows of the wooden building in all directions.Two streams were put on, and the flames extinguished.The place is entirely gutted.This is the second fire which has oe- curred in the factories of Mrs.Mathieu within a month, the first one being burned to the ground.The Mother Appeared.The mother of Albert Jeffery, who was abandoned on Viger square the other day, and condemned to the Central police station by Constable Dufresne, turned up last night, and said that she was Jennie Jeffery.The woman was taken before Mr.Lafontaine, the Police Magistrate.It turned out to be the old story of drink but, as her treatment of the child had been good previously, Mr.Tafontaine decided to give her a chance, and she was liberated on promising to take proper care of the boy in future.: Dame de Bonsecours.i then in the throes of war.OLDEST CHURCH IN MONTREAL, The Story of Notre Dame de Bonse- cours That Was Founded in the Year 1657, BY SISTER BOURGEOIS.The Historic Building Was Burned Down in 1754 and Rebuilt in 1773-75.mm MIRACLES SEEN IN THE PAST The beautiful and historic church of Notre Dame de Bonsecours is one of the most interesting relies of old Montreal.The venerable Margaret Bourgeois, found- ress of the Order of the Congregation, first proposed the erection of the Boase- ccurs chapel in 1657.The church, as it stands to-day, dates back to 1775 only.On his arrival on the site of Montreal in 1642, Chomedy de Maisonneuve had placed the colony of Ville Marie under the protection of the Virgin.This fact suggested to the zealous Sister Bourgeois the idea of erecting at a short distance from the little colony a chapel in honor of the mother of God, which could be used as a church and place of pilgrimage.The One Hundred Associates had long desired the erection of a place of worship in Ville Marie.But, as a result of the continual inroads of the Iroquois, many years passed before the proposed church could be built.Marguerite Bourgeois found circumstances in her favor.The Little colony became enthused and looked forward with pleasure to the completion of the new chapel.People began to work, Some carried stone to the site of construction, others carted sand; workmen of all classes willingly offered their services.The work of construction was begun in the spring of 1657.An imposing ceremony preceded the first labors of the builders.Father Lemoine, S.J., laid the first stone, and Closse, who replaced de Maisonneuve during his absence in France, named the church \u201cNotre Dame de Bonsecours.\u201d In 1673, long after the Order of the Congregation had been founded by Sister jurzeouws, only the foundation of the proposed chapel of Notre Dame de Bon- secours had been built, for the necessary money had not been raised.It was discouraging for that zealous lady to see that the erection of a place of wership for which she had labored for years was thus delayed.She wrote and even went to France to obtain financial aid from those who took an interest in the welfare of New France.Her labors were not in vain, After two years of earnest endeavors, of prayer and sacrifice, Marguerite Bourgeois found herself at last in a posi tion to have continued the work of construction.The Site.° The site chosen for the new chapel was the same as had been selected by Sister Beurgeols in 1657.; On the 29th of June, 1675, the entire colony proceeded to the grounds, where Father Souart planted a cross and laid the first stone of the new chapel.This stone bore the inscription : \u201cBeato Mario Virgini et sub t'tulo Assumptionis.\u201d Once completed, the chapel was the daily rendezvous of pious people, who prayed Lo- gether for the prosperity of the nascent colony.The chapel was indeed to the colonists much like the temple of Solomon to the Jews, a source of admiration and a refuge in which they sought Divine as sistance in the hour of need.Destroyed in 1754.The disastrous fire of 1754, by which nearly half of Ville Marie was reduced to ashes, also destroyed the Chapel of Notre The country was General Montcalm and Chevaliers de Levis, de Bour- gainville and de Bourlamanne had \u2018ust : i i come to Canada, and the military opera- raise the money necessary for the inaugu- ; tions under their command occupied 1he attention of the entire country.No thought of rebuilding the sanctuary could be entertained, and the people of Ville Marie, like the Israelites of old, could but weep on its ruin.; Some years after the inauguration of the English regime in Canada the Government proposed to build a barracks on the site of the old church.The Catholic population of Ville Marie deeply regretted the move, and considered forever lost the opportunity of rebuilding the chapel.Rev.Father Montgolfier, superior of the seminary, and Father Jollivet, parish priest, called a meeting to protest against this action of the Government.The mili- + tary authorities accordingly forebore to ap- f propriate the land.The Second Chapel.This was very gratifying to the Roman Catholics, and as a result meetings were held, subscriptions were collected, and again the project of building a chapel in honor of the Virgin was in progress.The seminary gave a portion of its property for the construction of a larger chapel than the one which the flames had destroyed in 1754, and Messrs.Lemoine, Gamelin, Lefebvre and Papineau were charged with collecting subscriptions on the 29th of June, 1771, the anniversary of a similar ceremony in 1675.Father Montgolfier replaced the first stone of the former chapel with the inscription which had been recovered, and then laid the first stone of the new sanctuary.Beneath this stone were placed a silver medal bearing the effigy of Pope Clement XIII., and a large plate with the inseription D.0.M., Beato- Mario auxiliatrice, sub titulo assumption- Other stones were laid in other parts of the edifice by the principal citizens vresent; Messrs.Roch de St.Ours, Luc de | Lucorne, Picotte de Belestie, Chevaliers \"de St.Louis; Lemoyne, Baron of Longue- uil; Messrs.Bourassa, Gemelin, Portier, Lemoyn, Auge, Desaulniers, and others.Under the sill of the main entrance Father Jollivet placed a last stone, on which was written the history of the chapel from re its erection in 1657.The construction of the new church proceed-d rapidly, and in 1773, on the 20th of June, the second anniversary of the laying of the first stone, the church was solemnly blessed and inaugurated.This new and beautiful sanctuary wae again made the daily resort of pious Catholics.Pilgrimages from the surrounding countries ware often made to the shrine of Notre Dame de Bonsecours, where even to-day one can see on the walls, exvotos, in the form of crutches, sticks, etc., commemorating the miraculous healing of cripples.The devotion of the Oatholies of Montreal towards Our Lady of Good Help never diminished in its intensity.A calamity which the older citizens of Montreal recollect greatly contributed to augment the devotion.It was in 1847.Typhoid had become epidemic.Thousands of citizens were stricken and thousands died.Several priests, nuns and nurses fell victims to their devotedness to the sick.Even the Archbishop, Mgr.Bourget, and his coadjutors, were victims of the plague.Mgr.Bourget then made a vow that if the scourge stopped, if he recovered his health, he would give a new impulse to the devotion of Our Lady of Good Help, and would offer an ex voto to Notre Dame de Bonsecours.T historian of his life remarks tha no sooner was his prayer ended tham his requests were granted.As a further mark of gratitude to the Virgin, to whose intercession he attributed his restoration and the ceasing of the epidemic in Montreal, Mgr.Bourget held in her honor an unique and grand demonstra- lon.A naval procession was organized in the t.Lawrence in front of Montreal; the statue of the Blessed Vitgin, which was to crown the edifice of Notre Dame de Bonsecours, was placed on a rich stand on one of the steamers, and in triumph the procession sailed up and down the river, singing hymns and cantels in honor of the Mother of God.A few years later a ceremony somewfat similar took place.Mgr.Bourget purchased, in Paris, a statue of the Madonna to replace on the Bonsecours Church the one which had been removed.From the parish church the statue was triumphantly carried to the throne in the Bonsecours Chapel, where it is seen to-day.Thus the thrice sucred memories that hover around the now historic chapel of Our Lady of Good Help have endeared it all Catholfes of Montreal.When the Canadian Pacifie Railway Company announced its intention of building the DaMousie StaTfon It was feared that the chapel would be demolished.Indeed, it was the desire of the company to do away with it, as their yard room was limited.It was urged further that the chapel was too old and its walls wculd be a poor contrast with the new building.It was, therefore, proposed to demolish the old chapel and build a new one elsewhere.Many and loud were the protests against the deémo- lition of the sacred edifice in which generation after generation had knelt and prayed, and which stood as an heirloom of the Catholic Church in Montreal.Instead of demolishing the edifice it was agreed to reconstruct and embellish it.The interior was first renovated.New floors and new pews were built to replace the old ones.The ceiling was beautifully painted and frescoed.The sanctuary was presented with a new altar; a modern system of heating was also introduced.The walls alone remained old, but dearer for all that.The exterior of the building likewise was renovated.The roof was rebuilt and on each side of the dome were built two smaller ones.That was not all.In 1894 the Rev.Father Lenoir, the present chaplain of the Church of re Dame de Bonsecours, received from Italy a fac simile of the humble house in which, 1900 years ago, the Saviour and his mother abode, This fac simile was built at Loretta, beside the original sacred home, and 18 its true reproduction.From Loretta the house was sent to Rome, where Pope Leo XIII.was pleased to bless it.The little chapel was brought to Montreal without accident and was placed in the dome of the Church of Notre Dame de Bonsecours.Va: \u2014_\u2014 SEIGNEURS ST.BRIDGE.- \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 The Government Wiil Not Repair It, and the Mayor Asks for a Report.Mayor Prefontaine has received from Ottawa a reply to his recent communiea- tion regarding the repairing of the bridge and flume at Ogilvie\u2019s mill, Seigneurs street.The Government definitely refuses to take any action in the matter, and intimates that if the city cares to fight the matter out with Mr.Ogilvie, the lessee of the premises under dispute, they can observe their own counsel in the matter, His Worship accordingly instructed Mr.P.W.St.George to thoroughly examine the bridge, report its condition, and prepare an estimate of the cost of rebuilding the structure.Mr.St.George finds that nine of the posts supporting the present bridge are badly rotten and he is very glad that the holes were not boarded over with the foundation so unsafe.The Mayor, upon examination of this report, will decide upon what further steps will be taken.Some Liquor Cases.His Honor Judge Desnoyers rendered judgment yesterday in the following liquor cases: Joseph Parent, Belolil, selling liquor on Sunday, fined $75 or three months; Taschereau Beaudoin, captain of the Paul Smith, for Selling liquor on board the boat, $60, or three months; Octavie Trepannier, 125

Shipping Lines in the East Are Greatly Handicapped, He Says remnant BECAUSE OF THE CARTAGE.tee mt It Costs More to Take Cheese, for Instance, to Elder, Dempster & Go, Than to Allans.rater SOME FIGURES ON THE THEORY, prenne In conversation this morning a shipping man mentioned the fact that the farther east the ships lie from the canal the small er are their chances of getting consign ments of dairy produce.{The difference, he said, was a very great one.This, if true, should have an Mportant bearing on the scheme of harbor improvement.To verify the statement, the figures given herewith for the month of July and August were prepared, and are worthy of consideration.The lines spoken of are situated one at each end of the harbor, and the other about the centre.There are three lines running to Lon- don\u2014the Allan Line, Thomson Line, and the Elder-Dempster Line.In July and August of this year the Allan Line, which is at the foot of St.Peter street, carried to London 53,328 boxes of cheese.The Thomson Line, at the foot of Berri street, 41,703 boxes; the Elder-Dempster Line, just east of Sohmer Park, 33,700 boxes., It may be argued that this discrepancy is not due to the inefficient accommodation provided in the harbor.Other conditions might reasonably account for the difference.Produce exporters, however, appear to be of the opinion that the inequality of harbor facilities is the main cause.One of them said to a reporter that with his firm, as with everyone clse, time was money.They could send two loads, of, say, three and a half tons each, to the Allan Line in the same tima that one could be sent to Elder-Dempster & Co.s London shed, and the same applied to the Thomson Line in proportion, to the distance.Moreover, it cost half a cent a box more if sent past the elevators, If they had sent the Allan Line cheese to Elder-Demspter it would have cost $267 more than it did.\u201cYou need not blame me,\u201d said one exporter, \u201cit is the fault of the harbor accommodation.\u201d MAISONNEUVE TROUBLES Hx-Councillor Makes Charges Against Aldermen, Police, and the Council, At the weekly meeting of the Municipal Council gf Maisonneuve the secretary read a long letter, in which the former municipal administration, the acting secretary, Mr.Ecrement, Chief of Police O\u2019Farrell and Constable Fournier, are severely criticized for their action while in office.The letter was signed by Mr.Hubert Prevost, ex-Councillor of Maison- neuve.The secretary is accused of having lost a considerable sum to the municipality in connection with a manufacturing cempany, of which he was one of the di rectors.Mr, Prevost complained of having been brutally assaulted by Constable Fournier.He accused Chief O\u2019Farrell of avoiding the scene of trouble, thus neglecting his duties as preserver of the peace.Mr.Prevost \u2018demanded an enquiry and signified his intention of suing the town of Maisonneuve for the sum of $100 damages.\u2018 Mr.Ecrement proved that he left the company as soon as he saw the bad turn affairs were taking.a Mr.O'Farrell said Prevost was altogether in the wrong.It was merely a quarrel, and he did not think it necessary to interfere.- ss Judge Svengali.The following tale comes from Glen Island through Mr.Starin\u2019s ingenious presg agent: \u201cSeveral physicians who have made a study o.hypnotism are much interested in the peculiar influence exercised over his fellows by a monkey in the big zoo at Glen Island.He possesses a power of hypnotism over his snkey brethren as strong as was Sveng°!\u2019s over Trilby.The monkey has been named Judge on account of his grave expression and sober manners.He exercises his peculiar powers only for his own pleasure and enrichment whenever the desire strikes him.Any formal exhibition he would ruin by simply refusing to call forth his hypnotic influence.\u201cJudge is a recent importation from South zurica.He attracted little or no attention at first, then the attendants noticed that he had a mysterious control over the other monkeys in the cage.Big and little, without regard to race and species, they all seemed to be under the domination of his will.A look, a clinking of the sharp teeth, a twinkling of the heavy brow, and thes trongest monkey in the collection bowed helplessly to the hypnotist\u2019s desires.Whenever Judge sees anything thrown into the cage that he wants he simply brings his \u2018influence\u2019 to bear, and unless the other one manages to bolt the tidbit before the evil eye is fastened upon him he usually gets it.\u201cJudge is a comparatively small mons key and his face is striking.His eyes are large and black and piercing, and hig power seems to lie wholly in them.Recently he tried his hypnotic game on a coon that had been placed in the cage, but it didn\u2019t work for a cent.Instead of yielding up the treasure the coon wiped up the floor with the simian.This feat seemed to afford a lively satisfaction to the other monkeys, but it did not serve to lessen Judge's power over them.Within an hour after he had been licked by the coon the simian hypnotist had one of the monkey's under spell again.The management of Glen Island has been offered a large amount for Judge, but declines to part with him at any price.The poet Campbell, the author of tha farfamed war poem \u2018Hohenlinden,\u201d in which occurs the

SATURDAY, AUGUST 27, 1898\" T= MM Ne ST ASA AAS AN VAY {BY A WOMAN.A K \u2014 L _ _\u2014 Chiffon Scarfs.À pretty fcature of the new evening dress is the long, soft scarf of chiffon.It may be black, white or colored, and the black and winte sashes are made very effective by dotting them over with applique figures of lace in contrast, black and white.Plain chiffon, with a frill of lace all around the edge, is also used, and the sashes of white organdie have innumerable rows of narrow lace insertion across the edge.Ruches of tinted chiffon are festooned around the skirts of plain and broeaded satin evening dresses, and one charming gown is of yellow moire, with kiltings of yellow chii- fon in the skirt.The bodice has tiny bolero fronts of jewelled lace and a sofb, full vest of the chiffon, caught up at oue side with green and pink hydrangea blossoms.A striking yet simple evening gown is of pale blue brocaded satin, with plaited bolero bows and a belt of green veivet, Notes.The new combination wardrobe and dresser trunk has a novel feature among its many oubbyholes and recesses, which the manufacturer calls the secret drawer.That is, it is at present a secret drawer, and has to be shown to every prospective purchaser.This is designed for jewels, and a place is made for it by making a false bottom in one compartment.Access to the drawer is obtained by lifting out a partition in front of it.As this partition 13 only a sliding partition, +\u2014\u2014e\u2014e Those Three Stewed Lobster.Cut up the lobster as for salad.Put it in one-half pint of milk, and let it boil up once.Add a tablespoonful of butter, pepper ana a smail pinch of salt and let it simmer gently.Serve on crackers.Oold Fish, One of the most inviting and tasty of dishes for a supper on a warm night\u2014es- pecially a Sunday night supper\u2014is a dish of cold fish.By this, fish that is simply colde is by no means meant.Bluefish, weakfish, sea bass, mackerel or salmon is pickled (in boiling vinegar), is cooled off and then served ice cold, with mayonnaise or French dressing, the dish it rests on being decked with lemon and hard- boiled egg.Another substantial article nf food for hot days is boned chicken surrounded with jelly.The jelly mentioned is made 3! the bones, and the meat is kept as much in the shapé of a chicken as possible.= Artificial Cream.A cooking teacher tells of a manufactured cream that is worth knowing about in emergencies, when the real article is not to be had.It is maGe from the whites of two eggs beaten sfiff, with a tablespoonful of sugar and a teaspoonful of côrn- starch Half a cup of cold milk is added by degrees, and all beaten together very stiff.A cup of milk is~ hated over the fire, with a small butter ball melted in it.This is allowed to come to the boiling point, when it is removed to a cooler part of the stove and the beaten egg mixbure added.When it has all thickened very slightly to about the consistency of thick cream, it is taken off and strained and cooled.This may be used as cream for serving with fresh or preserved fruits, but it is needless to add it will not whip.\u2014 New York Post.Cucumber Sauce.In a saucepan put one tablespoonful of butter and one tablespoonful of chopped onign, and place over a moderate fire until the onion is tender and has slightly changed color.Strain the butter into a clean saucepan, return to the fire and stir in one tablespoonful of flour; when well blended add slowly three-quarters of a cupful of white stock or water and stir until smooth.Add one-half of a cupful of grated cucumber pulp, one table spoonful of tarragon vinegar, one-half of a teaspoonful of salt and one-quarter of a teaspoonful of white pepper and simmer for five minutes.Rest the Spirit, More than the body, the spirit needs rest.It is the spirit which truly lives.Often vanity and vexation of it lie in wait \u2018hroughout the hurly-burly of preparation ior going away.Going away is all very well, unless one makes of the going a burdensome duty.Go if going is easy.of \u2018it is mot supposed to be particularly safe | except that its presence is not known or suspected, and not looked for by petty thieves, and therefore jewels are comparatively safe.hvdrangea shades are all the rage.Women are not content with having the pretty showy flowers on their hats, but bunch them all over their gowns, and in Paris, where the furore started, they are placed, like pompons in the hair, on each side of the head, below the rim of the hat behind, or resting on the pompadour if the hat twists up in front.; Heavy guipure, eitlmr white or ecru, is effectively employed in many new designs.In some cases it covers the dress material entirely.It is prettier, however, used in fetching parts, such as boleros, yoke pieces, sleeve-caps, etc.The latest mode of wearing the lorgnette is to have it suspended by a long jewelled chain that is no longer passed over the head, but depends from a tiny brooch,

idle week.All the more if the week be filled with simple vagrant pleasure snatched upon impulse.he more routine is broken in upon the better.Sleeping until midday and sitting up till all hours are not to be commended Upon general principles.But as a reaction from cast iron business punctuality, they have both charm and value.Indeed, lying at length, whether amid warm, sunny sands, upon the scented turf of cropped upland pastures, or in one\u2019s own familiar every-night bed, is the finest sort of rest.Similarly if business exigencies have i forced one to be for eleven months severely tailor-made, while one\u2019s soul yearned for the frou-frou of silken draperies, vacation time should be riotous in those same fripperies.There is a sanely sensuous delight in the sight, the touch of them to one who has involuntarily foregone such wear.Often it is not the thing which irks, but the necessity for doing it.One truly rests, not through vacuous ceasing to do accustomed tasks, but by so spending rest time as to bring back to balance the muscles, mental, physical and spiritual, which are in danger of atrophy from the pressure of daily conditions.Notes.The reason why fruit juices jelly

lengths of two-inch ribbon in her favorite colors, or varying shades thereof, and upon these ribbons she induces her friends to inscribe their autographs, together with the date of inditing, the mottn or v \"ord which is supposed Lo ruie auu uv\u2026.te heir life and character, and any other fragments of similar nature liked.The lettering is done in sepia, oil colors, colored or even black ink, according to taste.Sepia looks especially well upon yellow, golden brown or certain shades of green; black ink is striking upon scarlet or blue; purple writing fluid is lovely upon lavender or other pansy tones.If the maker of the portiere is doubtful concerning the ability of her friends to do the lettering artistically, she merely asks them to write upon slips of white paper, and herself copies the legends thus obtained upon the ribbons.In rare cases the names are embroidered instead of written.When ready for making up the ribbons \u2014varying from six to ten feet in length\u2014 are attached to and suspended from a wider ribbon as long as the portiere is to be wide, and upon which is emblazoned the name, motto and other particulars concerning the fair owner.Fringed, scalloped or pointed ends of similar or the same ribbon, a line of painting or embroidery, may serve to conceal the method of joining.Once attached the loose ends of ribbon are arranged according to the location of the motto.If this is near the top or bottom of the ribbons the portiere is connected midway; if passing along most of the length the waving ribbons are allowed to hang free.\u201cRainbow\u201d

After the roar of canmon and rattle of | musketry are over, camp followers may always be found, who seek money profit by vending the heroes\u2019 wares in such places as museums, alehouses and the public square.This post-bellum specimen has made his appearance in St.Louis.Yesterday two men, one an ex-teamster and the other an ex-packer, both from the American army at Santiago, opened headquarters in a saloon at No.7,730 Minnesota avenue.\u201cWe are out for the stuff,\u201d said one, and if any one wants to hear my experiences in the war he must lay down his coin.\u201cI know more about the battle than any general, Spanish or American,\u201d said [ the other, as he received a drink from the hand of the bartender.These men may have seen fighting, and again vuey may not; still, they usurped the place occupied in the public mind by the popular war hero and disgusted many a patriotic Teuton living on the : South Side.Their names are Edward Healy, living at No.203 West Schirmer street, and Henry Wanschaffe, living at No.117 Koeln avenue.Healy never enlisted, but followed the army in a mule train, while Wanschaffe served his country, it is said, as a teamster.They re- ; turned Wednesday night.Shortly after noon one of the two men went to a telephone and called up The Republic and wanted an audience with à reporter.He declined to give his name.In a saloon at the above-mentioned num- i ber were found two men at play over a billiard table.They were bronzed, hardy men, and had the appearance of having + seen rough weather.Neither said a word, ; but rolled the balls about the table, and would mow and then pass a guttural sound which was supposed to be Spanish.Neither i wore nuiforms, and when an enquiry was \u2018made it developed that they were camp followers.Each complained of the fever, 1 yet walked freely and seemed in good health.It was not difficult to locate the alleged military men, for after the game was over Healy came forward and, seating himself in a chair, proceeded to unfold his ideas in about the following manner.\u201cOf course, Henry and I have been down in Sautiago, and we are right willing to tell of the fighting we saw.We have been selling what we know about Santiago on the train from New York, and reporters and other people pay ts most any price for what we have to tell them.\u201d \u201cWhat would you want for what you say vou saw ?\u2019 was asked \u201cFive dollars would be too cheap.Now, we were down there from the first of it, and know more than the other fellows.I left St.Louis April 23, and my partner here got away Decoration Day.I can give you any kind of information you want.It is money that I am after.If anybody asks me about Santiago, I charge him something, and I expect to make a lot of money.\u201d .From the way in which the beer spigot squeaked as it turned the engagement played at the saloon by the \u201cReturned Santiago Heroes\u201d was a success.t was a novel idea to get these men to hang around and sell gold bricks, but the patrons of the place were mot biting any too frecly of the bricks themselves, and a.frequenter of the saloon remarked that Healy and Wanschaff might do better in a dime museum.cc Nelson Relics Under the Hammer.The London Globe.\u2014A large number of Nelson and Trafalgar relics, most of which were described as the property of a lady, were put up at auction to-day.There was only a small attendance of bidders, and for the most part the bidding | was very slow, the result being that but a few lots were sold.A rare silver pouncet | box, with cut repousse lid of the \u201cVictory,\u201d dated Trafalgar, October 21, 1805, oh an outer lid engraved with a por | trait of Nelson, and surrounded by the in- | scription \u201cEngland expects that every maa will do his duty,\u201d was bought by a repre- | sentative of the auctioncers for a private | gentleman for £3 12s 6d; and a curious air of old Sheffield plated candlesticks Vas also bought in the same way for £4 10s.The candlesticks, off which nearly all the silver had been rubbed, were de- i with trophies showing various na- | sigped tories up to those of Nelson, 1798.: Didding started at £1 ls, and after a time | reached £5.The next lot which attract- | ed any interest was an autograph letter : cn foolscap sheet, written at Merton, De- comber 25, 1802, to James Fittler, saying, \u201cI have received your most beautiful print of the Battle of the Nile; and if you will be so good as to let me know the price of the print I will try and get some of them sold.And I beg your acceptance of the £25 sent herewith.Several rints of various kinds were also submitted, but only two found buyers.One was described as a \u2018rare colored print.show- \u2018ne an exact representation of the English d French fleets under the command of Rear-Admiral Nelson and Admiral Bruey off the mouth of the Nile, August 1, 1798, together with the references to the plate, copy of Nelson\u2019s despatches, names of the English and French ships, the number of killed, wounded, etc., in frame.The other was a brilliant old colored print por trait of Admiral Nelson and Lady Ham- jlton, painted by G.Romney, engraved by T.B.Brown, in ormolu-mounted black frame.After a little bidding these were knocked down at £5 each.; There was not much interest shown in the medals, but one, a fine and rare silver medal, in fishskin case, commemorating \\ the siege of Gibraltar, with descriptive letterpress, was sold to Mr.Glendenning for £6 5s, bidding having started at two uineas.Then some more letters written y the gallant admiral were put up, but ouly one was disposed of.It was written to George Nayler, Esq., and dated tho \u201cVictory,\u201d August 6, 1804, in which the admiral refers to a missing box sent by Lady Hamilton, and to the Dukedom of Bronte, with an explanation that it was made so in his favor, and carried with it the right to vote in the Assembly of Nobles.; Perhaps the most interesting lots which were not sold were the first sword worn by Nelson when he went to sea, 1770, and a large and well-executed miniature of Lord Nelson, in gold and blue enamel frame, enriched with pearls and rubies, with panel at back vontaining hair, the gold rim of which is, inscribed, \u201cCaptain Collingwood, from his attached friend, Horatio Nelson.\u201d The former lot was offered in the first place by the auctioneer at £50, but no response was received, and he subsequently endeavored to start the bidding at £10, but even at that low figure could find no bidder.As to the latter, the auctioneer started the bidding at £10, but cnly £12 was offered for it, and it was withdrawn.There were in all between fifty and sixty lots put up.The Lockjaw Germ at Montauk] The belief that lockjaw is endemic on the eastern end of Long Island is one which dates back for many years, and the establishment of Camp Wikoff at Montauk has only served to bring the local traditions of the disease into more prominent notice.Although it has been denied that lockjaw depends upon locality, it i8 well known to physicians who have investigated the subject that i is more prevalent in certain districts than in others, and while they cannot account precisely for this, observation has confirmed its truth.A well-known bacteriologist of the Health Board said, in speaking of the present discusaion : \u201cEver since I have been connected with this work I have heard of the peculiar prevalence of tetanus, or lockjaw, in that part of Long Island, just as I have heard of other localities where it seemed more common than throughout the country in general.That is not saying, you know, that it occurs even in those places with what could be called frequency; it is realy a rather rare disease everywhere.\u201cExactly how the tetanus germ gets into the earth is not known, but it is supposed that it finds its way into the soil through manure deposits.As it lies there the germ consists only of the tiny, hard spore, which forms the end of the rod-shaped complete bacillus.This spore lg very tenacious of life.It will resist boiling for a minute or two, and will live for an indefinite period when Iying dry anu undisturbed in the earth.It is so small that it would require at least one hundred thousand of them to be visible to the naked eye.In the districts where lockjaw is found oftenest there is probably something in the nature of the soil particularly favorable to the preservation of us spore.As for the idea that freshly turned-up soil increases the danger of the disease, there may be some truth in that, for this reason: The spores, of course, fall upon the surface of the earth and gradually work their way downward.Those which remain on or near the top may be rendered harmless by the action of the sun, wind and rain, but those which are buried at a good depth are more carefully preserved.Then, when the ground is ploughed up, they are exposed in their full vitality.\u201cIt is not correct to say that tetanus Is caused by the spore which gets into the wound.It is caused rather by the poison which is generated if that spore happens to develop into a complete bacillus, and to set up an irritation in the cut, with dirt and other foreign matter.If tetanus spores should chance to get into a perfectly clean, incised wounid, they would very likely cause no trouble, but would be carried out again undeveloped.It is in the making of the wound that the danger usually les.If the instrument with which the cut is inflicted is dirty or rusty, and if the wound is ragged, so that dirt enters easily, the lockjaw germs may carried in with that dirt, and will have a good opportunity to grow and develop inside, creating the poison.\u201cThere is little reason to suppose that any of the soldiers now at Montauk will have lockjaw, for, as I have been saying, it needs just the right conditions to develop.There would not be the least chance of the germ getting into old wounds which were partly healed, such as those of the soldiers who have come from the South.And if te surgeons should be obliged to make fresh wounds in performing operations, why, they would be sharp and clean, thoroughly washed out with antiseptics.So the only possible cases of lockjaw would be from jagged and dirty cuts, which the men who are able to go about outdoors might happen to give themselves, and in that respect they would be in no more danger than the regular inhabitants of the place.Alarm on the subject is entirely needless.\u201d \u2014_\u2014\u2014 German Comment on American Militia, The Cologne Gazette is sim arly ungenerous in its appreciations of the fighting qualiwes of what it is pleased to call the militia\u201d of America.In the first place, the apparent want of sufficient medical aid is severely commented upon; the lack of tents, of adequate means of transport, and, above all, the obvious looseness of discipline such as could occasion the wild charge of the Rough Riders, evoke a somewhat unduly drastic criticism of Gen.Shafter and his staff.In a summary of the inferences deducible from the reports of the sangu inary conflicts of July 1 and 3, the Cologne Gazette remarks that the American troops manifested invincible, absolute bravery, which, in spite of their want of discipline, alone saved their general from serious reverse.Then it adds that the lesson to be drawn from the battles is that \u201cmilitia, as a system, has proved a complete failure.\u201d In the words just quoted some explanation may perhaps be found for the attitude of a certain section of the (German press towards the United States.If there is any traditional belief which is more religiously cherished than another in Germany, it is that only an army organized after the German pattern has the slightest chance of success against regular troops.If it were shown by the present war that promising material like that of which Gen.Shafter\u2019s army is composed, and which, to some extent, resembles the forces at the disposal of Great Britain and her colonies in the event of invasion, can, after a few months in the field, fight as bravely and as well as trained German conscripts the consequences would be far-reaching.Not content with inductively seeking to depreciate American generalship at the recent battles round Santiago, the Cologne Gazette adopts a supercilious tone towards the undeniable victory of Commodore Sampson.The message announcing the victory which \u201cthis valiant Admiral\u201d forwarded to the American nation, and which with pardonable enthusiasm he designated as a present in honor of July 4, strikes the Cologne Gazette as \u2018\u201c\u201cbombastic.in the vein of a despatch of Napoleon I.\u201d Have no other generals than sent somewhat bombastic despatcnes?But the Cologne Gazette ironically continues: \u201cAdmiral Sampson has only one equal for the Americans, and that is Nelson.\u201d Finally, the action of Farragut in breaking through the submarine mines and attacking the monitor squadron is described as a far more heroic action.For weeks, says the Rhenigh organ, Admiral Sampson lay outside Santiago \u201cnot daring to enter (sic); it was EMBROIDERED MOUSSELINE DE SOIE GOWN FROM HARPER'S BAZAR EMBROIDERED MOUSSELINE DE SOIE GOWN.Gowns of embroidered mousseline de soie have been extremely fashionable this summer, and, &s they always are made up on silk linings, will be quite warm enough for autumn wear.These gowns are too dainty as well as too elaborate for general use, and are only suitable to be worn in afternoon and evening.The smert costume shown in our illustration, taken from Harper's Bazar, is made © mousseline de sols embroidered with a chenille polka dot.The skirt in bell shape is trimmed with scant ruffles of the material, with a satin ruche at either edge; these ruffies are close together at the waist, but broaden out at the foot of tlag gkirt, and go entirely around it at the back;across the front breadth thers are ree rows of the ruching.\\ © The waist is very odd in design, made of heavy white lace and trimmed with straps of corded black satin, the bands of different sizes broader at the bust than at the neck or waist; the belt, however, made also of the corded satin, is quite wide.The vest, stock-collar, and large bow at the back of the collar are made of plain white mousseline de soie.The sleeves are tight-fitting, and strapped with satin ruches from the shoulder to the wrist;

and the females have small, shapely hands the horizon with Here and there a cultivated clearing.The St.Regis reservation lies for the greater part, over the border, in Canada, and mostly in the Province of Quebec, but there is a fraction of the tribe resident in New York, and under the care and supervision of the Interior Department at Washington.St.Regis, on the south bank of the St.Lawrence and about ten miles above Lancaster, in Quebec, is the tribal capital and largest centre of Indian population, but the settlement extends for ten miles up and down the river, and includes about thirty islands, ranging in size from half an acre to over 300 acres.The tribe is a remnant of the Algonquin confederacy and numbers now about 2,300.Though the physical type is well preserved and there are many who speak only the Indian tongue, there aim no Indians of full blood now in the tribe.The last full blood representative, a graceful and well proportioned squaw died about two years ago, well along in her nineties.The cross breeding has been mainly with the Canadian French, the Irish, Scotch and English coming a long way after in their representation in the tribe.The infegrity of the tribe has been better preserved in | recent generations than formerly, as the result of regardful legislation by.the Canadian Government and solicitous attention by a worthy missionary priest at the fine mission church of St.Regis, and as a result there is a larger proportion of three- quarter and finer bred Indians in the tribe than of half-breeds.The quarter- breeds rarely remain in the tribe, usually claiming identity with the white races when they reach maturity, and taking to the settlements.\u2014\u2014\u2014 In physical appearance the St.Regis Indian compares favorably with any otlier North American of aboriginal descent.The men would average probably 5 feet 7 inches in height and about 160 pounds in weight, and are straight and well proportioned in frame.The women are not so tall, nor in the average would they weigh over 135 pounds, probably.The round, fat face, with large check bones and flat nose predominate among the females and among the youth of both sexes, and feet and pretty ankles, but the adult males are often spare of flesh, and there are many examples of tall, sinewy men among them, with strong, characterful faces.Though the influence of civilization is clearly expressed in the dress and habits of the tribe, ey retain the ancient and characteristic love of solitude to a remarkable degree.Quite a considerable number of the families live in widely separ- THE HERALD, MONTREAL, SATURDAY, AUGUST 27, 1808.islands and most of the mainland of their reservation.Even the unpainted, two- story frame houses, that, with the stone mission church and rectory, constitute the tribal capital, St.Regis, are scattered in evident effort to get out of earshot of each other.Under aboriginal conditions it is not surprising that the Indian failed to acquire the agricultural faculty.His simple wants were easily supplied by the bountiful streams and woodlands.In hunting and fishing the males found not only easy and bountiful provision for the larder and the wardrobe, but the healthful excitement and exercise of the chase also, which his civiiized brother of these fin de siecle days finds equally alluring.Both forest and rived aiicrded quarry ol the noillest among their kinds.luk, nwscse, caribou, - deer, black bear, raccoon, beaver, mink, otter, muskrat, wolf, fox, wildcat, lynx, panther \u2014these were the plentitul disputants of | forest privileges with tuem and the wild turkey, partridge, quail, woodcock, pigeon, wan, brant, gocse, duck, snipe and widgeon, gave variety to their meals, and, with the eagle, ornament to their headgear.From the great St.Lawrence and its many little tributaries they lured the king of all game fishes, the mighty mus- kallonge, the black bass, the salmon, the trout, the wall-eyed pike, or d\u2019ore, as it is called by the contemporary guide; the pickerel, or racer; the occasional whitefish and the frequent sturgeon and perch.But most of this is changed mow.With the introduction of firearms the big game all but vanished, and has long since ceased to be a reliance for food and clothing for the Indian.Agriculture and the raising of domestic cattle and poultry have taken their places and the Indian has reluctantly adapted his life to the change.But the lake and river and their tributaries remain, supply of fish of the species that afford the largest measure of excitement and pleasure in their pursuit, and the largest sense of satisfaction when lying hot and brown and fragrant before one on a plate.Wherefore the St.Regis Indian is as much a fisherman to-day as he was before the white man ever saw the St.Lawrence.But even here his custom has yielded measurably to the influences of civilization.The Indian no longer builds his canoe of birch bark, or of a pine or cottonwood log.He is a customer of the paleface builder of skiffs and manufacturer of fishing tackle, And while he fishes all through the year for the general market and for his own supply, he likes best of all to serve the oecasional vacation tourist as a guide on the river at $2 a day and extraordinary expenses.This pays him a little better in the average than fishing for the general market, though the industrious fisherman can average forty or fifty pounds of fish per day, which\u2019 will bring him from five to ten cents per pound, according to the state of the market.The hotels and taverns and residents along the fishing grounds rarely pay more than five cents a pound for the ordinary run of the catch, but for a good-sized d\u2019ore or muskallonge the higher price can always be obtained, and for special occasions, such as a holiday or club dinner or wedding feast, a special premium is frequently offered for a fish that wiu make a big display on the table.À popular rendesvouz for the vacation tourist on Lake St.Francis is the Lake View Hotel, on Hopkins Point; another is the Algonquin, on Stanley Island, both within easy reach of the daily river steamer that plies between Dundee, on the hither, and Cornwall, on the farther side of the river.Dundee is the seaport, so to ward the Canadian woods stretch away to ated cabins in the forests that cover the speak, of Fort Covington, New York, and is just on the boundary line between with their inexhaustible | Canada and the United States.The line runs through the barroom of the International Hotel at Dundee, and almost the first thing the traveller lcarns when he reaches the place is that he can stand with one foot in Canada and the other in the United States and drink contraband whiskey and pay for it with the coin of either country.This extra orainary fact is expected to whet an otherwise sluggish thirst, and it often does so.The route for the New Yorker to this fisherman\u2019s paradise is via the Adirondack Division of the New York Centra] Road to Huntingdon, Canada, and change there to the Grand Trunk, to Fort Covington, N.Y.Dundee is only half a mile away.At either Stanley Island or Hopkins Point or Dundee or Hogansburg you will come into quick communication with Peter Back, Indian, or Joe Cu:teiaine, Frenchman, or John Bacon, American; or Wiilie Chatelaine or Don Cameron or Henry Bacon or Louis Lazore or Joe Le May, or some other of the score of river guides, and within half an hour after you have gotten into your fisning togs may be out on the river with tackle in hard.And until you have fished this river three or four years and have committed its geography to memory there won\u2019t be any use in your going out for the big game fish without a guide.The chances are that if you did so you would three-fourths of the time be fishing where there are no fish, and the balance of the time clearing your tackle of rushes and weeds.For the game fish of the St.Lawrence are creatures of habit, among which are their visiting and feeding customs, and these must be known and respected if you want to have any success in your fishing.Trust yourself to the guide, and he will give you a good day\u2019s sport.Only there are two methods of fishing in Lake St.Francis, according to what you set out to catch, and this you ought to settle before you complete your arrangements with the guide.The guide will furnish boat and tackle and bait, though if you happen to possess a strong jointed pole and multiplying reel and strong braided line you had better take them with you.There is a little addition to the satisfaction of your catch if you happen to have made it with your own tackle.Now settle in advance whether you are going for muskallonge and pickerel or wall-eyed pike (in Canada called the d\u2019ore), black bass, rock bass and perch.If for the former, you will troll entirely, with spoon- hook and strong line, and no bait; if for the latter, you will still-fish, with lighter tackle, and with strong, live minnows for bait.In either case it will be a very poor day that does not bring you half a dozen fish averaging two and a half to three pounds in weight.The chief desire of every angler, of course, is to land one of the king fresh water fishes, the fighting muskal- longe.But it seems almost as if the luck was in inverse ratio to the anxiety of the angler.Peter Back has a record of thirteen this season, and Joe Chatelaine, of ten, but a vacation visitor who has been coming every year for twenty- six years to the lake caught his first one last week.It was a good one, however, weighing thirty-two pounds when finally taken from the water on the gaff-hook of his guide, and the patient fisherman said, when he saw it safely landed, that he would be willing to come another twenty-six more years for such another catch.The usual luck of the muskal- longe fisher is to capture a ton or more of pickerel, ranging from a pound and a half to seven or eight pounds, for every twenty pounds of muskallonge he gets.Though the pickerel sometimes strikes with vigor and struggles desperately to get rid of the hook, there.is no mistak- ing the strike of the muskallonge.There is always a hard strike and an instantaneous effort to eject the bait; then a momentary lull, as if his kingship were dazed end shocked beyond expression, and then the fight begins.First a rush to the surface and a mighty leap into the air and simultaneous shaking of the wide-open mouth; then a mad dash to the bottom of the river, where, if you haven't kept a taut line on him, he will be sure to tangle your line around a sunken snag or among the rushes, and eventually get away from you, generally with part of your tackle.But if you have neld him steadily he will quickly shoot off on a long reach to one side, straining hard and steadily at the line.You may have to give him line on this tack, for fear of breaking, but his kingship will lose strength rapidly on this flank movement, and will usually submit to the strain of the line for a moment or two while gathering strength for a new move.reel iu, hand over hand, as fast as you can, until you feel the line suddenly drawn taut.This means that your quarry has gone off on another tack, either in the op- ; posite direction from the last, or, most | likely, straight twards you and down deep under your boat.And, now, if you are not careful, you are very apt to lose him.The keel of your boat affords him a purchase and he will make effective use of it if you let him.Give way slowly now, keeping your line taut, and presently the strain will slacken, and you can begin again to haul in.Perhaps your fish has reached his limit of resistance for the time and you may get him up within sight, when he will make another dash for the bottom, though te strain on the line is not so tense as before.He gives up easier this time, and Peter, who has been watching and advising and shifting the position \"of the boat and keeping it in deep water, explains, \u201cNow bring him up to the boat!\u201d while he stands by with the gaff hook.You follow In- stguctions.There is a fierce splashing on the surface of the water as the big fish sees that he is nearing his doom, a dexterous twist of the hook into his gills, and ha ig landed in the boat at your feet, with Peter crouching over him to see that he doesn\u2019t jump overboard.Presently Peter has a thumb and finger in his eyes, and, with a club carried for the purpose, hits him a smart blow at the base of the skull, and the fish ceases to struggle.The average weight of these fiercely fanged fighters of the St.Lawrence is said to be 16 or 18 pounds.The highest record weight 18 variously stated at 44 to 46 pounds.The fish that is most apprecfated for its edible quality by the river residents is the d\u2019ore, or wall-eyed pike.Next is the black bass, and next the perch.The amateur will find it hard to choose between these three when they are served up as they ought to be.The d\u2019ore is the larger fish, often running to seven or eight pounds, and is remarkably free from small bones, while his flesh is hard and white and flaky.Some there are who prefer the black bass, but after the first of July the choice is limited to the d\u2019ore and the perch.These three are inhabitants of the deep holes and races among the rush beds, and mussel beds of the river, and are caught by still-fishing.If you are partial to black bass you must go for them not later than the middle of June.After that they are in Lake Ontario, or in the deep channel of the river, and biting only occasionally.The d\u2019ore, perch, pickerel, rock bass and muskalonge are caught at all seasons, but they bite best on slightly cloudy and cool days, when there is but little wind blowirg.Though the tourist may not under or dinary circumstances readily enthuse over fishing, it will be a phlegmatic and dull soul indeed who will not vote a day spant on Lake St.Francis with congenial company and a St.Regis or French guide one DODO D ® ® OVD ® Now you must : .tures and orchards, Vigor in the past year.FES 133 ST.JAMES STREET, Montreal- Office hours 9 to 8.Sunday, 11 to 1.X 606000090000 à 9 9960606050 © DR.T.SANDEN.I3 SOGOGOODED © © © SOOOOOSOBIDN GOGOBOOOOOO © S GOGOOOOOOOOS CO CURE FOR MEN.Dr.Sanden\u2019s Electric Belt has restored 5,000 men to Healthy, Robust DROP FREE BOOK FOR WEAK MEN This book tells how your vigor can be regained 566606 60050000000500 9 9 6 69-50000 3 OOS of the most delightful days in his entire experience.There is so much beside the fishing itself to gratify the senses.First, there is the clear, sweet, bracing air, never humid or \u201csticky,\u201d but even on the hottest days, bracing and invigorating.Then the wide expanse of marine and landscape, embracing, besides the ever beautiful blue water of the river, the islands, some heavily timbered, some cleared and under cultivation, some mere rocks rising out of the water; the mainland, forests, fields, pas- and the far distant Adirondacks in their blue or purple haze.World travellers have called the combination hard to beat.With all this to please the eye, come also the songs of a greater variety and combination of native son birds than the New Yorker has hear nearer home for many years, and the odors of pine, hemlock, spruce, and an infinite variety of wild flowers, to gratify the sense of smell and hearing.Then there are visits to the islands, for midday luncheon, for berries, or to bargain with the Indian women and girls for some of their pretty sweetgrass baskets.Years ago, before the Canadian Government put any restrictions upon them, a few enterprising white women drove sharp bargains with the Indians for some of their most beautiful islands.Thus, one of them, of 180 acres, is held upon a lease for 999 years at 5 cents per aore per year, and others are held on similarly preposterous terms for leaseholds of 99 years.But for many years the law has thrown round the Indian a bulwark of protections against such imposition.The lands are owned in severalty by the Indians, and they are permitted to sell and let to each | other, but they are incapable of alienating their lands and letting them to others than St.Regis Indians for longer periods than five years without special permission of the Indian Commission.Among the Indians there is a gradually Apcreagine inclination for education and ; : : anua training, and for assimilation with the whites.Bul a too radical and abrupt separation of the children from the family and tribe is likely to leave a train of regrets.An instance of this was related by one of the bset known of the guides, old Peter Back.\u201cMy first wife, he\u2019s an Injun-woman.He have seven children;

but under this distingwished and filly adorned exterior she carried one of the kindest, least exacting.most genial natures in the world.Palfrey, though a plain, uncultured community, in which pride and independence juxuriated unchecked, fell promptly under her spell, and forgot to eye with suspicion the lady who liked to accept friendly services as well as she did to render them.While the housebuilding was in progress she was frequently on the ground, and became acquainted with most of the men in the neighborhood, all of the chil- tren, and a good part of the wives.The young girls seldom ventured upon the charmed territory, at least while the own- ?r Was present; her matronly, silk-clad figure, her well-modulated voice and graceful, confident gestures frightened the rus- ÿic young things away.But not a frag- went of information respecting the family gscaped their greedy cars, and it was sur- meng Vo see of how much fact and fic- on they contrived to possess themselves.In course of time the house was finished, snd the Chadwicks moved in.It was then hrown open for three successive after- froons, and an informal invitation extend- ge to every one.The bolder spirits\u2014chief- y well-seasoned matrons\u2014ventured first.These having spread a reussuring report, the hard-working men folks and sharp- faced insters lollowed their lead, while half bold, half bashful youths and maidens undergoing a kind of blissful embarrassment, formed the main part of the tompany on the third day.Mrs.Chadwick\u2019s house was a revelation in itself.Her oldest daughter, Alice, possessed artistic ability; Olivia, the second, Played and sang very well, while Juliet, who las barely fifteen, had wonderful Powers as a mimic.Fach of the three entertained the guests in her own way, with the most delightful readiness and good humor; they passed cake and ice cream, played with the children, laughed off ac- gidents, and when the visitors were gone, though the tongues buzzed merrily, not a word was said that reflected unkindly cn eccentricities of costume or infringement of etiquette.Every one of these young ladies had inherited something of the mothers\u2019 rooted graces of character, \u201cOh, dear oh, dear ! how dreadful it is bo be poor!\u201d cried Mary Fairchild, on oming home fresh from the splendors of Amity Lodge, as the new house was called, \u201cI don\u2019t see anything so dreadful,\u201d remarked her brother Dick, philosophically.e had been planting corn, and wore overalls and a jumper, and was eating hot doughnuts.\u201cYou ought to look in the glass, then,\u201d eturned Mary, and went on quickiy, \u201cYou'd change your mind, I guess, if you vould see their piano and splendid books and the walls just covered with pictures, wnd the girls with real tortoise-shell brushes\u2014oih, dear !\u201d \u201cTheir hair is no prettier than yours, of they do brush it with turtle shells,\u201d saia Dick, soothingly.\u201cNonsense!\u201d replied his sister, with an Impatient shake of her rebellious brown Jocks.\u201cYou ought to have seen their brother, looking as if he\u2019d come straight eut of a bandbox.\u201d , \u201cI have seen him lots of times, and he\u2019s Jn uncommon good chap,\u201d responded Dick,.èhe imperturable, beginning to whistle.Mary Fairchild was not really poor, ex- sept by comparison.She lived in a comfortable, though very old-fashioned house, er father being a dairy farmer whose pame appeared in big letters on the vil- ge milk wagon.He himself frequently appeared on the front seat, which began Yo be a trial to Mary.Mrs.Fairchild was an admirable, judicious woman, with 3 gift for quietly achieving her ends when Fou were least expecting it, and the young people, who were both pupils in the high 3chool, enjoyed a wholesome, active life with a fair share of \u201cadvantages.\u201d Of course the Chadwicks were not de- endent unon Palfrey for their society; hey entertained a succession of what Juliet called \u201clong-haired artists and long- tongued lawyers, and their long-suffering wives;\u201d but they maintained their cordial jiiitude toward the country people, and lary soon became a favorite wiih them.At first she was invited to act as guide In their frequent excursions, for she knew every crossroad and view for twenty miles ground; and she was so bright and appreciative and full of resources that it grew to be quite the thing to \u201crun down and get Mary,\u201d if there were tableaux, pr a boating party, or a set of tennis on cot.\u201cYou are a true Yankee, Mary\u2014you can turn your hand to anything,\u201d Mrs.Chad- Wick used to say.But though from time to time one and another of the Chadwicks dropped in at she farmhouse, they never penetrated be- ond the somewhat chilly front parlor.lary, I fear, in spite ot her Yankee good penses was a little bit of a snob about er own way of life.People with three zervants couldn't understand what it was to have grandma picking chickens in the back hall, and mother hurrying to get the bread kneaded up, and Dick, in a dreadful old jacket, doing\u2014one didn\u2019t &now what ! But toward the end of the Beason she resolved, and announced to her family with due solemnity, that the Chadwicks must all be invited to tea.\u201cWhy, of course, have them here whenever you like,\u201d said her father, with a man\u2019s fatuous disregard of details.They vere 2ll gathered in the sitting room after gvening prayers.\u201cIt isn\u2019t so simple and easy as you seem to think,\u201d returned Mary, who was anx- fous that the home circle should be im- \u2018pressed with the full seriousness of the undertaking before she began.\u201cThey have everything, and I do want them to think that we live like civilized beings, at least.I have the supper pretty well planned in my mind, and we can get Katie Foley to tome over and wait on the table, I guess.I\u2019ve been to the Chadwick\u2019s so many times that I know just what it\u2019s proper to have, and how to serve the courses and all that, and I can do the cooking as well as anyone.Of course we shall have to have the table in here\u2014\u201d \u201cIn here ?Humbug !\u201d interrupted Dick.¥Why not have tea in the kitchen, as nsual ?It\u2019s the pleasantest room in the house, big and airy and comfortable, especially in summer, when you don\u2019t cook there anyway.I say what\u2019s good enough for us\u2014\u201d \u201cOh, of course\u2014you\u2019d ask Mrs.Chadwick to eat bread and cold sausage standing up in the pantry, I dare say,\u201d retort ed Mary, whose temper was not proof pgainst opposition; \u201chowever, as this is my party, not yours\u2014\u201d \u201cAnd the lounge and the sewing ma- È »- BADLY BLISTERED.ledy writes sayingher feet were badly blistered, SES pate parboiled, but cre box FOOT ELM mpletely cured them.It is a wonderful remedy for weaty, Hot, Tender Feet, All druggists, 25c.ÿ.H.BTOTT & JURY, Bowmanville, Oot.| ee, 2 A0, 230, LA, IL dé EE di ge de oll db SR AR hf dle IRLS\u2019 CIRCLE.é fe Ree Mg lf Seth es 20 000 90 SR ASR SR SR Ste Sh ee > ( chine, and grandma\u2019s work table, and my desk will all have to be lugged out into the shed, I suppose, and the big table squeezed in?\u201d pursued Dick.\u2018\u2019Exactly; now do be quiet.1 shall take them up to my room when they come, she went on to her mother, giving Dick a decided cold shoulder.\u2018lt l00ks so nice since !

Mary! has got out!\u201d \u201cOh, do let\u2019s go and help, and see the fun anyway,\u201d cried Juliet, starting up while an irrepressible smile went round.Poor Mary could do no less than comply, fervently wishing meanwhile that Trotters and all his kin were in the depths of the sea.Back and forth went the quarry, with Dick in hot pursui¥, dashing through flower beds, squeezing under fences and srattering poultry and cabbages in his mad career, while Mary flourished a stick and Juliet waved her handkerchief and cheered on the competitors equally with her smiles.After some ten minutes of this inspiring race, piggy was finally captured on the barn floor amd prodigious squealings, and the girls retired from the scene.leaving Dick, spent with exertion and laughter, perched on the meal barrel and mopping his brow with a piece of old bagging.\u201cOh, what a lark! I wouldn't have missed it for anything!\u201d declared Juliet, nodding gayly to Mr.Fairchild, who at that moment drove into the yard with his load.\u201cT do think a farm is the most delightful place in the world.\u201d \u201cEspecially the menagerie,\u201d said Mary, relaxing in spite of herself.As they went up the steps they heard grandma holding forth and found that dear old lady launched upon the tale of Andrew Hawkes\u2019 schocl keeping experience.Ier glasses were far down on her nose, and she was using her knitting needle, from which the stitches had half run off, to emphasize the dark points in Sammy Hawkes\u2019 character.Mrs.Chadwick was throwing in a word now and then, and the others listening with an interest which, if mot real, was certainly well feigned.Mary, who had heard the story before, wondered if it would ever end, and ap- presensive regarding supper, f*~ went into the kitchen.Her mother passed her on her way to the parlor, and after a three- minute chat\u2014\u2018as if nothing at all was the matter\u201d\u2014begged the guests, with reassuring cheerfulness, to step out to Lea.\u2018there was one dreadful moment when they passed on unmistakably into the kitchen, but really the room did not look so very bad, with its broad, western windows and spotless table set out with grandma\u2019s luster band china, and\u2014yes, the usual thing, one of mother\u2019s countritied, heterogeneous company spreads\u2014plates of bis- Come quick!

I once saw it.I should like to read it, if you could borrow it.\u201d = \u201cI'll try,\u201d answered the old man, \u201cif so be you'll promise to read en out loud to me.\u201d \u201cPve got en,\u201d said Dick, at the close of the next day, producing the book.It was arranged that as the days were long the two should meet in an orchard at 7 o'clock on Tuesday and Friday evenings.There the old man of seventy and the boy of sixteen, seated under an apple tree, steadily read \u201cParadise Lost\u201d through from end to end, and thoroughly enjoyed it.; The mythological allusions puzzled them, but a small \u201cJohnson\u2019s Dictionary,\u201d which contained a chapter on gods and goddesses, helped them to un\u201d _tand the = poets thoughts.When they reached the end of the poem the old man and the boy were so impr.«sd by the last five lines fhat they commified them to memory.When occasionally they met, each repeated to the other: \u201cSome natural tears they dropped, but wiped them soon, The world was all before them, where to choose, Their place of rest, and Providence fheir guide, They, hand in hand, with wandering steps and slow, Through Eden took their solitary way.\u201d These lines appealed to the boy., Some of his young acquaintances deridid the youthful reader; older persons advised him to lay aside his books, and even his father and mother fir{ by, but kinuiy, re 10n- strated with their son for wasting His time on \u201cEuclid\u201d and literature.\u201cI have a vivid recollection,\u201d Pengelly wrote, twenty years after, \u201cof the little table at which I wrougnt theoretical and practical mathematics; the very small pile of books; the wretched light, the fireless grate, the damp, cold stone floor, the aching head, the swollen feet, the shivering frame, and that which enabled me fo bear the whole \u2014 the determination to know something of the beautiful and astonishing universe.I thank God I was enabled to persevere.\u201d : HOW BOYS AND GIRLS SHOULD TREAT BOOKS.A little leaflet issued by Messrs.Appleton, the publishers, contains these very useful directions for treating a new books It is sadly true that many children do not know how to treat a book.They commie all the faults which in this little pamphlet they are warned against.Books are among the best friends we have.Some people think they are the very best.1 do not tell you that, but 1 do think that our friends, the books, should be treated more respectfully than we often treat them.Read over carefully these directions and determine to treat more carefully your own books, which you have or may have, and particularly those books you borrow, or have in your possession whic belong to other people.I know just how unwilling people are to lend books to folks who do not treat them properly, and many grown persons are einners,, as well as children, in this respect.So make up your mind each one of you that when anyone trusts you with a book you will do your best to treat it well while it keeps you company and tells you its secrets, and that you will be careful to return it in as good condition as you borrowed it.Hold the book with its Back on a smooth or covered table; let the front board down, then the other, holding the leaves in one hand while you open a few leaves at the back, then a few at the fromt, and so go on, alternately opening back and front, gently pressing open the sections till you reach the centre of the volume.Do this two or three times and you will obtain the best results.Open the volume violently or carelessly in any one place, and you wu likely break the back and cause a start in the leaves.Never force the back; if it does not yield to gentle open- inæ.rely upon it the back is foo tightly .or strongly lined.Once on a time a Library Book was overheard talking to a little boy who had just borrowed it.The words seemed worth recording, and here they are : \u201cPlease don\u2019t handle me with dirty hands.I should feel ashamed to be seen when the next little boy borrows me.\u201cOr leave me out in the rain.Books as well as chudren can catch cold.\u201cOr make marks on me with your pen or pencil.It would spoil my looks.\u201cOr lean on me with your elbows when you are reading me.It hurts.\u201cOr open me and lay me face down on the table.ed so.\u201cOr put in between my leaves a pencil or anything thicker than a single sheet of thin paper.It would strain my back.\u201cWhenever you are through reading me, if you are not afraid of losing your place, don\u2019t turn down the corner of one of my leaves, but have a neat \"ittle bookmark to put in where you stopped, and then close me and lay me down on my side.so that I can have a good, comfortable rest.\u201cRemember that T want to visit a great many other little boys after you are through with me.Beside, T may meet you again some day, and you would be sorry to see me looking old, and torn,\u2018and soiled.Help me to keep fresh and clean, and I will help you to be happy.\u201d You wouldn\u2019t like to be treat- Teddy's Rabbits.Mother Bunch and Bay Buns Had a cosy home, Built of wood and thatched with straw\u2014 i rer saw;

St.Andrew\u2019s University is made out of a pair of John Knox's trousers.Several good stories, some apocryphal, are told of the late Principal Caird, His preaching was on rather too high a level for one congregation to which he ministered.When about to leave, he suggested to the beadle, for the benefit of his successor, that some portion of the scantily-filled church might be curtained off, But the beadle.misunderstanding Mr.Caird, replied, \u201cNa, na, ye\u2019ll sune be leavin\u2019 us, and syne we'll maybe get a mair pop\u2019lar man!\u201d All Scotland knew Professor Blackie and hi¢ plaid, but comparatively few knew how it was that he came to wear the plaid.When he received his first professorship he told Mr.A.B.Todd, of Cumnock, he was scant of cash.His wife insisted on his having a new black coat.This, however, he could at that particular time but.ill afford, but he got Mrs.Blackie to wrap her pretty plaid round his shouid- ers.That hid the bareness of the coat, gave him a picturesque appearance, and made him decent till money eame in.The Professor, however, never discarded the plaid.A verr unique collection of Royal hair is the latest temptation which is be- |

usual optimism, looked up and said, \u201cWell, after all, it is not so bad as it might have been.I might have broken my leg.\u201d \u201cI wish you had,\u201d replied the President of the College of Surgeons, whose technical knowledge made him, of course, aware of the fact which His Royal Highness has now learned, that a broken patella is a far more difficult thing to repair thoroughly than a broken leg.7 A long lost MS.of Johnson\u2019s has come to light, namely, the small note-book containing a portion of the notes made by Johnson in the course of his visit to France with the Thrales in 1775.This note-book was at one time in the possession of Boswell, who published its contents in the \u201cLife.\u201d Boswell stated that he deposited this MS.in the British Museum, which seems not to have been the case.Anyhow this particular note-book appears to have come into the possession of Samuel Rogers, for it has been found among the Rogers papers of the late Mrs.Sharpe, of Highbury, the widow of Mr.William Sharpe, one of Rogers nephews and executors.It is now the property of Mr.Sharpe's aaughters.At the last meeting of Holbeach Guardians it was reported that there was a strike amongst some of the inmates.In connection with pauper funerals it had been customary to use some of the inmates for bearers, and the board had been in the habit of malking them a small allowance for refreshments in connection with the work.It was now reported that the bearers had decided to demand an increase from 6d*o 1s.It was suggested that there was an \u201cagitator\u201d amongst the inmates, and it was decided that this man should not be again employed as a bearer.This decision, it was thought, would put an end to the \u201cstrike.\u201d It has just been ascertained that Piper Findlater is about to get married to a young lady belonging to Dundee, of the name of Miss Mary Gellatly.Miss Gel- latly met Findlater some eight years ago when on furlough at Arbroath, and since his return to this country the acquaintanceship was renewed, and it is understood this will result in a marriage early in September.A large number of invitations are to be issued for the wedding, which will take place in the City Assembly Rooms, Dundee.Miss Gellatly is a well-known step-dancer in Dundee, and she formed ome of a troupe of dancers which accompanied Findlater during.a part of his present tour.The old nave of the Church of St.Mary the Virgin, Charing Cross Road, is being pulled down by order of the London County Council.The old building, which forms the nave of the present church, was erected in the reign of Charles 1I., by Joseph Georgeirenes, Archbishop of Samos, for the use of the \u201cGreek Nation.\u201d The next possessors were the Huguenots, and subsequently St.Mary's was the scene of the labors of the late Rev.J.C.Chambers.A picture of what the church and district then was is to be found in \u201cThe Christian,\u201d where Mr.Hall Caine describes the church under the name of St.Mary Magdalene, Crown Street.The cost of the new nave is estimated at £3,000.When the late Dr.Macleod, of Govan, began his ministerial work in Newton- on-Ayr, he was (writes a correspondent in the North British Daily Mail), a tall young man with lightish hair, and had a remarkable velubility amd rapidity of utterance, his words rushing in an unbroken stream of eloquence, with scarcely a single resting-place.When he went to Newton some of the worthies were getting tired of the frequent ministerial changes, and one of their number, remarking that every two years they ¥ad to put up with a new man, expressed the hope to the Presbytery that Mr.Maec- leod would wait six or seven years.But he remained for less than a year, and never entered the manse.As another worthy put it, \u201cHe cam\u2019 wi\u2019 a carpet bag, and gaed awa\u2019 wi a carpet bag:\u201d but not without leaving a gracious memo behind him.v The picture-sale season just concluded has been relatively uneventful.True, a very decided appreciation has taken place in the auction value of outstanding works by Rossetti, and the late Sir Edward Burne-Jones, and Millais \u201cOrder of Release,\u201d made as high a sum 5,000 guineas, as has ever been paid for a work by him.On the other hand, no sensational prices can be recorded for examples by British portraitists, nor have any canvases comparable in importance with the four Turners, which in the Pender sale of 1897 brought over £30,000, come under the hammer.Moreover, instead of thirty-two pictures, as was the case last season, having been knocked down for 14,000 guineas or upwards, no more than sixteen dispersed since January 1, reach or exceed this limit.Of these, three\u2018 are by foreign masters, four by British portraitists, and the remaining nine, including \u201cThe Mirror of Venus,\u201d the \u201cChant D'Amour,\u201d and \u201cLove and the Pilgrim\u201d bv Burne-Jones, may be classed as subject pictures by native artists.The Duke of Northumberland has made over his vast property in Northumberland to Earl Percy, the heir to the Dukedom.The death is announced of Mrs.Terriss, widow of the well-known actor, William Terriss, whose murder is still fresh in the public mind.A man named William Viney, over 70 years of age, murdered three of his children, and so seriously wounded a fourth that recovery is almost hopeless.Viney is separated from his wife, and he and the children were in absolute destitution.The crime was committed in a lonely part of Leyton Marshes, Essex.A blue Persian cat (called \u201cRoy\u201d) formed the sole stock-in-trade of a firm, the two members of which were engaged in litigation recently.\u201cRoy,\u201d who is a most distinguished cat, the winner of all manner of prizes, and living in a special- ly-constructed house} was eventually adjudged to be the joint property of the two partners.\u201cThe return of Mr.Fletcher Moulton to the House of Commons,\u201d writes a correspondent to the Westminster Gazette, \u201cwill sensibly increase the embarrassments of Parliamentary life.\u2018The new member is to the casual observer indistinguishable in form and facial appearance from Mr.Robertson, the Tory mem- \"or for Hackney.who.strange to say, defeated Mr.Moulton, the former member for that constituency, at the last general election.During the contest at Hackney the rival candidates were every moment mistaken for each other, with some ludie- rous results.When Mr.Robertson was at first seen in the members\u2019 smokine- room of the House of Commons the friends of Mr.Fletcher Moulton were subject to considerable distress.They conjectured that Mr.Moulton, who sat for Hackney in the Parliament of 1892.95, had in a moment of absence wandered into his old haunts.\u201d When upy de Lome was Spanish minister at Washington he had something of the reputation of a dinner-table wit.The papers were filled with conjectures as to whether Macco had or had not been killed by the Spaniards and at a dinner one evening a well known Washington lady asked De Lome if \u201cMacec was really dead.\u201d \u201cMadame,\u201d said De Lome, with the most courtly manner, \u201cMaceo may not be dead, but he ig certainly bur- ied.\u201d HOLLAND'S QUEEN T0 BE CROWNED.Next Week, on Her Eighteenth * Birthday, Wilhelmina Assumes Royal Honors.COMES OF A FINE FAMILY.The Little Kingdom Will Celebrate the Event in Right Royal Style.COMPARED WITH QUEEN VICTORIA.mate August 31st will be a proud day for the people of Holland, for on that day the little Wilhelmina, the girl Queen, will be a girl Queen no longer, but a sovereign in reality as well as in name.She will Le 18 years old on August 31, and being 18, and consequently a woman, she will succeed to the title which has heretofore been hers only by couriesy.And yet she will still be the girl Queen, in the eyes of her devoted subjects and the world at large, until she marries.There is a wealth of affection in the i.e, and nothing of affectation.And as for the sacrifice of her maidenly houcrs cn the altar of Hymen, that is a story in itself.Many have been the suitors for her hand, despite her tendar years, but Wilhelmina has ideas of her own on the question of marriage.For the present she is concerned mcre about her coronation than abous æ sus- band.The affair will be unique in Lhe history of Europe.Grandeur and simplicity will be curiously blended in this celebration.There will be such a display of jewels as the world has seldom seen, and yet Wilhelmina is more exercised over her pigeons than over her jewels.The priceless gems of Holland\u2019s treasury will be augmented by precious stones of marvellous brilliancy, ordered to the mother country from the various colonies under the Dutch flag.Such a crown and sceptre would dazzle the eyes of an alchemist.Their value can only be guessed at.Har Winged Messengers.As for the pigeons, There will be 6,000 of them\u2014white winged messengers of joy.QUEEN (WILHELMINA, Of Holland, who is to be crowned on / Wednesday.fter the young Queen takes the oath of ps the Dirds will be liberated as she is driven through the squdre, and will carry the tidings to every part of the low countries.And the girl Queen claps her hands in glee in anticipation of their fluttering wings, and thinks it will be very fine indeed.For in many respects Wilhelmina is still a child.Her mother, the Queen Regent, has personally superintended her ecuca- tion, and has striven to the utmost to inculcate the principles of simplicity and dignity.Wilhelmina has both, and a charming combination it is.She never forgets the dignity that is her birthright as Queen, nor has she forgotten the sweet simplicity of childhood.; Although the festivities will begin on August 81st, on which day Wilhelmina becomes of age, the coronation will not take place until September 6th.The week intervening will be given over to feasting and merrymaking, and all Holland, from the most dignified court officer to the most lowly peasant, will indulge in merrymaking.The young Queen herself will not miss it.She is too democratic not to have a good time at her own coronation.If she finds herself growing nervous she laughs the feeling off, and argues That one is only crowned once in a lifetime.- Wilhelmina will be Queen of the Netherlands, for the \u2018Kingdom of Holland\u201d only existed as such from 1806 to 1815, when Louis Bonaparte was King.Although there have been only three kings of the Netherlands, all named Willgam, their ancestors, the Princes of Orange, descendants of William of Nassau, the illustrious patriot and champion of Dutch political and religious liberties in the sixteenth century, held the office of Stadttiolder without interruption, except from 1651 to 1672, end personally conducted all the affairs of foreign policy and military administration.A Noble Line.No royal family ii Europe has priduced men of equal ability in goveramont, war and diplomacy to these Princes-tne first William of Orange, who was assassinated at Delft in 1584; his sons, Maurice, the most eminent soldier of his time, who died in 1625, and Frederick Henry, who, until his death in 1647, during the Thirty Years\u2019 War, raised his country *o the highest pitch of prosperity and power, and, lastly, his great-grandson, who became King William III.of England, Ireland and Scotland.These were Stadtholders, or Executive Presidents, and Captains- General of the Seven United Provinces\u2014 namely, Holland, Zealand, Utrecht, J'rics- land Groningen, Gelderland and Ovearys- Of the Kings, in the nineteenth century, William II.was a distinguished soldier, whose victory over the French at Quatre Bras facilitated that of Weilington at Waterloo.The House of Nassau claims as high antiquity as any now reigning, but the present young Queen is the last of her race who could inherit the crown, unless she marry and have children; since the succession has been formally renounced by Adolf of Nassau, Grand Duke of Luxemburg.So much for Wilhelmina\u2019s lineage, the importance to her people of a matrimonial alliance.Of the former it is perhaps, not kind, just at this jovous time.to refer to her father, King William ITT, for that sovereign is not remembered plea- santlv by his peaide.And yet a few words are necessary.King Willham TTI.the last male member of the famous House of Orange, was and not an exemplary ruler.Ile was wild and dissipated 1 eariy manhood.rs first wire, dophia, daugiter or the lung of Wurtumberg, succesd=d raisly weil ju eurbing his dissolute tastes, but when be succeeded to the throne on thz death of his father, and came into a fortune oI 100,000,000 florins, he relaxed uil vesiraint, and lus name became a byword over al Europe.Uniortunately the building in which the ceremony will be held is scarcely larger than the chapel in the Kremlin at Moscow, in which the (zar was crowned, so that the number of spectators must be quite limited.The members of the two chambers must attend to take the oath of fealty to the Queen\u2019s person and throne, and the other dignitaries of State, with the diplomatic body, will monopolize the remaining space, to the exclusion of any members of the general public.The coronation ceremonies themselves will be extremely simple, so as not to needlessly proloag the tension.The following is «4s cath which the Queen wii take :\u2014 \u201cI swear.to the Dutch people that I will observe and always maintain the constitution.I swear that I will defend and guard with all my power the independence and the territory of the empire, that I will protect public and private liberty, and the rights of all my subjects, and that I will use every means confided to me by the law to foster and uphold the national and individual well-being as à good Queen should do.And may God help me.\u201d Then comes the enthroniza- tion at the hands of the States General, whose oath, taken first by the President and then by each member individually, closes the ceremony.The little Queen has been brought up by her mother with -good judgment and care, but while her childhood has been made hanpy, she has not been permitted to lose sight of her future destinies, and yet she has been reared in the atmosphere of democracy.She has even been allowed the privilege\u2014a privilege coveted by every child of the rich\u2014of playing with other children in the streets.One winter day as the Queen Regent was driving in her sleigh with her little daughter, then about ten years old, they came upon a large group of children who were merrily snowballing one another.The Princess asked her mother if she might Poin them.Permission was immediately given, and the royal sleigh stood still for half an hour, while the future sovereign of the Netherlands was boisterously hitting and being hit by \u201cnobody knows who.\u201d A Glimpse of the Child.Wilhelmina has been educated so as to feel a true Dutchwoman, and willingly puts on the quaint old-fashioned dress of the provincial farmers\u2019 wives, with their golden frontlets and lace caps, so wonderful to see in many a market town.As a child Wilhelmina\u2019s first governess was a French woman, Mille.Siotard, and she spoke entirely in the French language until she was four years old.Then she learned other languages, but, strangely enough, never German, her father having a horror of all Germans.Miss Winter, an English lady, then replaced Mlle.Siotard, and all lessons given by the various professors were always delivered in the presence of Miss Winter, who had absolute authority.It was this English governess who told the girl Queen, in order to punish her, fo draw a large map of Europe.Wilhelmina obeyed orders, and stuck to her task bravely.Miss Winter then sent for her ward, and told her to bring the map along with her.\u201cBut where is England,\u201d asked the English governess, \u201cand why have you made Holland so disproportionately large compared with the other countries of Europe?\u201d Queen Wilhelmina did not answer.She had extended Holland away out into the German Ocean, so as to make her own country as big as Prussia, while Great Britain, was represented by a little black speck or two in the midst of a yellow \u201cLondon fog.The governess laughed, and the map is undoubtedly held by her as a priceless treasure.Admires England and America.But, all the same, Wilhelmina has a great admiration for England, and thinks the United States of America quite as great a power.Will Choose Her Own Husband.Wilhelmina is not a young woman ta be coerced.She has repeatedly given utterances to expressions which prove that she doesn\u2019t regard marriage as entirely essential to her happiness.She realizes that she is still a young girl, despite her position, and says with all frankness that she is in no hurry to wed.that when she wants a husband it will be one of her own choosing.So when the cables announced last February that her formal betrothal had been announced to Prince Louis Napoelon, second and favorite son of the late Prince Jerome Napoleon, the report was taken with a grain of salt.Inasmuch as nothing further has come of it, it is safe to assume that Holland\u2019s young Queen is still heart whole.And yet the marriage of Wilhelmina means much to her subjects.The Hollanders know that her death without neir would mean the death of their political independence and their commercial prosperity.According to the constitution, the crown would devolve on the septuagenar- jan Grand Duchess of Saxe-Weimar-Eisen- bach or her descendants.Her husband 1s Prussian to the core, and, as such, js Te- arded as among the main pillars of the German Empire.; Indeed, none of the petty sovereigns who form the federation known as the German Empire possesses a more commanding and predominant

North German Empire.Al any rate, it would be brought within what is known as the sphere of Berlin inffu- ence, with all that that implies in a mih- tary, a political and a commercial sense.Compared with Victoria.A comparison between Wilhelmina and Queen Victoria is almost unavoidable.Great Britain\u2019s Queen was also crowned at the age of eighteen, and, like Holland's little Queen, she was the idol of the people.The reign of King George IV.hat been marked by excesses of every sort, and the Britons had become sickened of the inanity of William IV.\u2019s misrule.Consequently the coming of Victoria hailed with delight.x Then, too, Victoria at the age of eighteen was very much the same sort of gir as Wilhelmina, although not quite so pretty.She also had decided views of her, own on the question of marriage, and, when, not long after her ascension to tie throne it was suggested that she should take unto herself a husband she said she was in no hurry.And she chose her own mate.Of course, it would have been quite out of the question for even a prince to propose marriage to a queen.But, as delicately as possible, Victoria sued ior the hand of Prince Albert, and, as all che world knows, the union was a happy one.Another similarity lies in the fact that Victoria and Wilhelmina are the only women rulers in Europe with absolute power.Christina of Spain is a Queen Regent, but even as Regent her power 1s limited.Wi- helmina has a great admiration for Queen Victoria, and has often expressed the hope that her rule will be equally wise and prosperous.The Duke of Clarence

dragon mask from the face of China, and, while the nations wondered, uncovered the pale features of a shrinking boy.Within.three months the pretensions of a vast empire were exposed.It was proved that instead of one kingdom China was an aggregation of petty kingdoms.It was shown that instead of one nation it was made up of many peoples, having different beliefs and languages and owning different allegiances.It is true that they were all sons and daughters of the Son of the Sun.It had been known, in a general way, that a man from Hong Kong could with diffculfy make himself understood in Canton and that a man from Canton would be unable to make his wants known in Manchuria, but nothing like the racial separation of the Chinese nation was dreamed of.Its army amounted to nothing.Its navy was a sham.Its generals were venal, cowardly or incompetent.The state was rotten to the core.All of this demonstration was accomplished without extraneous aid by a country physically smaller, and, it was believed, much weaker.= Then the peoples of the west gathered to the feast.The subterranean policy of Russia came immediately to the surface.Japan had accomplished the task of exposition, but was not to be allowed to enjoy the fruits of unbridled conquest.The nation of little people was held off.It had dreamed of possessing Corea and of aggrandizing a large part of the Chi nese mainlatd., It was forced to content itself with the Formosan Islands, some in- comsiderable treaty rights and some money.The Russian bear growled in its pathway.The German and French eagles floated on either side.\u201cThus far,\u201d said these in concert, \u201cshalt thou go and no further,\u201d Russia®s Price.Russia extended aid and2 China paid à heavy price.Russian agents swarmed in Manchuria.Russian troops were rushed into that province in thousands.Rus- sien ships of war were massed upon the northeastern Chinese coast.M.Pavlof, speclal representative of the Czar at Pe- kin, became the constant adviser of the Teung-li-Yamen(.the ministerial council, which does the governing.Russian demands were preferred for treaty rights, for occupancy rights, for railway concessions, for mining privileges, for changes in customs, with a steady rapidity which marked the Czar\u2019s resolve to obtain his pound of flesh to the last ounce.The Chinese Government writhed and squirmed.It whimpered.It protested.It appealed to the ¥nglish representatives on one day.On the next it refused to receive the English ambassador at all.It informed_Lingland that, if backed against Russia, it would cast off its incubus immediately.It received the assurance and forthwith granted all that Russia demanded.It was bound by the secret treaty.It was a child in the grasp of a strong and cruel man.It was not the \u201cmailed fist\u201d of Germany waved before its eyes which made its chief concern.It was the clasp of a hand, velvet-gloved, but muscled with.steel, which glowly com- ressed and cracked its bones one by one.c-day that grasp is more forceful than | 60900 À © 0900909909 SOCHSHHHO 6 © D 06006650 H0C 600000009000 © 9 9 909994600004 it was a month ago.It will be more forceful a month hence than now.It will continue to tighten till the open rupture comes.That rupture, the statesmen of Europe are almost universally agreed, will result from Ingland\u2019s attempt to break Russia\u2019s hold.China Falling Apart.Chinese territory is still nominally intact, but the actual dismemberment has oroceeded with unexampled rapidity.Theoretically the empire is formed of a central territory, which is actually China, and outlying dependencies.Eighteen central provinces and the adjacent Manchuria form the hub of the wheel, and the teudal dependencies are the spokes.One by one, however, the outlying territories have gone from under Chinese control.\u2018\u2019hibet and Corea are still attached to the extent that they acknowledge Chinese suzerainty.Mongolia and Chinese Turkestan are only buffer states.Nepaul and Burmah are British.Anam is French.The Loochow Islands, including Formosa, have gone to Japan.Siam, relying on Great Britain, snaps its fingers in the face cf the Chinese viceroy, who wishes to collect the annual tribute.Russia, which nominally leases a small part of the Liao- tong peninsula, occupies and owns the wuole of Manchuria.From three sides and from the centre the empire is falling apart or is being forced apart.A glance at the accompanying maps will show the \u201cspheres\u201d claimed by the four powers interested in the demolition of the Manchu Government.The tinted space, occupying the centre and including the great Yang- tse-Kiang Valley, is the British \u201csphere.\u201d It has been so regarded for a quarter of a century and more.This is actual China.It has a population of 300,000,000.It contains hundreds of huge cities.It is the garden spot of the world.It is worth ten thousand times over the barrenness of Manchuria and the other out- lving parts of the great kingdom.It is cver the possession of the Yang-tse-Kiang Valley that the battles of the future will be fought.It is only within the past ten days that the right of the British to dominance in this section of the empire has been questioned.It has been questioned, however.Russia now denies it absolutely.Pavloff asserts that the British riglit to dominance there is a myth; that it has never been granted in express terms by the Chinese Government; that it has rested hitherto merely upon an English assumption, and that it is within Russia\u2019s rights to make contracts therein-and to build railways therein wherever so permitted by the Emperor's ministers.As Russia owns the Emperor\u2019s ministers, the significance of this stand ill become at once apparent.Russia\u2019s Sphere.Russia now controls all of Manchuria, which is being opened by the Siberian and Manchurian railways.It controls all of the province of Pechili, which includes Peking, the capital, wherein M.Pavlof smiles and dictates.It controls Shanshi and Shenshi, over which a Belgian cor- peration, the creature of the Russian Government, is now driving a railway.This line will go westward and northward across Koko Nor and Chinese Turkestn until it effects a junction with the Central Asiatic Railway, now open to Samarcand in Russian Turkestan.Russia controls also Kansu, which is unexplored, but is said to be minerally rich, and the northern part of Tibet.Indeed, Tibet, the lend of mystery, which is closed against England from the south and has been always, is now wide open to Russia from the north, and is being surveyed by Rus sian engineers.Russia controls with these territories every caravan route across Koko Nor and Chinese Turkestan It is stated, with a strong appearance ot \u2014\u2014 , much emaller than the French or Russian EUROPEAN SPHERES OF INFLUENCE IN CHINA.omin The northern part.includin à PEAU A lance by Europe.Tibet, Mongolia, Manchuria and the

\u201csphere,\u201d and impinges upon it, so the French \u201csphere lies directly to the south and impinges also.What Russia has gained throug! diplomacy and promises of moral and physical support

pation, however, was found in the murder of two or three missionaries.Their deaths cculd not have been opportune to William\u2019s purpose.À force of marines was lauded at Kiao-Chou.The Chinese soldiery ran away, as a matter of course.The German flag was hoisted and demand for reparation preferred.It was all a part of the play.The Chinese Government, under instructions from M.Pavloff, protested mildly, it being considered 2 good thing to keep up appearances as far as possible.The result of the killing of the missionaries and the landing of the handful of marines, together with Wilhelm's blustering talk about the \u201cmailed fist and the mission of the imperial brother, mon end the aggrandizement of Chinese territory, is marked.Russia has acquired through soft words and secret agencies.France has found excuses for wars and | taken with the strong hand.French dip- | lomacy has not been a success when tried upon China.For a long time the Gallic republic has been endeavoring to increase its holdings in Anam, Tonkin and Cochin China, but it has succeeded only in obtaining concessions to build two railways, one from Hanoi to Nanning-Fu and one from Hanoi to Yannan-Fu.It is intended that the Nanning road shall go on north to a point on the Yang-tse river opposite to Hankau, there joining with a Russian road which is to be built down from Pe- : king to Hankau.If the scheme is carried out the Yang-tse Valley, now dominated by England, will be pierced through and through by a railway system, one part of which will be owned by France and the other part by Russia.This road will be the future Grand Trunk line of China, and it will be dominated by French and Russian officials, its tariffs fixed by France and Russia, and its trains run to\u2019suit the convenience and purposes of those countries.Against the building of thie road England will use its strongest influence, and it may be the direct cause of the conflict.Germany\u2019s Slice.The German possessions in China are possessions, but they are more compact and more advantageously situated.There can be little doubt that there was an agreement between Russia, France and | ermany that the latter should have \u2018he Prince Henry, to the Far East, has been that Germany is now in ownership of the entire Shang-tung peninsula, has reserved the right to build railways and do mining in that part of the empire, handles the customs of course, has obtained an admirable ice-free port for ite war ships, and is altogether ready to take a hand when the slicing begins.It is now endeavoring to obtain a concession from the Tsung-li- yamen to parallel the contemplated Russian line from Peking to Hankow.The result of this, of course, would be to bring a third power into ownership of a railway commanding the Yangtse Valley.A grave feature of the general situation is to be found in the fact that if the French claims for an extension of the \u201csphere of influence\u201d are allowed, the French will cut off communication between British Burmah and Central China.This will be made clear by a look at the French line as given on the map.Britain\u2019s Sphere.The headquarters of Great Britain in China are at Hong-Kong.It has subsidiary headquarters at Shanghai, Chifu, New- Chang and Hankow.China has admitted to Great Britain, by formal pledge given to Sir Claude Macdonald, that the Yang- tse Valley is the British \u201csphere.\u201d This pledge is, in effect, that no part of the ang-tse Valley shall be ceded to a for eign power.There have been indications of late that the Chinese stand ready to violate this pledge whenever it shall suit Russia\u2019s convenience.A strong support of this view is to be seen in the recent din\u2019s position hire been pronouncedly in favor of what has come to be known as the \u201copen door\u201d policy.That is, confident of her ability to hold her own against all commercial competition, with the advantages she has already gained, she has advocated throwing open China, with its 100,000,000 of purchasers, to the markets of the world.Russia, France and Germany have wished, on the contrary, to partition China commercially among themselves, reserving certain portions of the empire for their own trading and barring out competitors by means of inimical customs regulations and duties, local taxes railway tariffs and what not.It should be stated here that Great Britain has always maintained in her \u201csphere\u201d the \u201copen door\u201d since the acquisition of the \u201csphere,\u201d and her trade with China is three-fourths of the whole trade conducted by that empire with the outside world.It is more than two and one-half times greater than the trade of any one of her competitors.A glance at the telegrams in the daily papers during the last two weeks will prove, however, that the attempt of England to maintain the \u201copen door\u201d policy for the entire empire has been an egregious failure.English Rebuff in Persia.Recently Persia wanted to borrow money from Great Britain, offering as security | the customs receipts of southern Persia.e security was unexceptionable and arrangements were made to forward the money.Russia interposed by forbidding th.loan vo the Persian Government, and ofiered to lend the amount required, or a greater amount, on the security of all the customs receipts of the Persian Kingdom.This proposition was accepted, Persia being more afraid of Russia than of England.Instances of this kind, great and small, could be multiplied almost infinitely.All have tended to breed in the English people a deep resentment against the Russian policy and a deep distrust in the Salisbury Government.Tt is not thought that Russia is anxious for war.It is said, on the contrary, that she is not prepared for war just now, and that M.de Witte, one of the Czar\u2019s ministers, has informed him that at least six years of uninterrupted peace Sweep the S 6 69699969 Hard

again sign a | tion of war.Satisfied by this Poy the Russian Government has felt itself free to pursue its po:1cy of aggression regardless of consequences, since it believes that no serious consequences can result.It is declared, however, by various correspondents that there is a point beyond which even the Queen is powerless to stay indignation, and the people may take the matter into their own hands.It is further asserted that Rus sian has approached dangerously near to that point Lerd Salisbury has had infinite difficulties to face, and he has not been successful.He has lost the support of his own party.During the last week there has not been a newspaper of consequence in Great Britain which has not attacked \u201che eastern policy of the Ministry.Enraged by duplicity and dou- ble-dealing, resulting in the failure of the New-Chwang Railway project, Sir Claude Macdonald, the British Minister resident at Peking, has called Li Hung Chang a liar to his face.Let Britain Awake.Speaking to this incident and to the Salisbury policy in general, the London mes gays : _ \u201cWhile we are lulled to sleep Tor months by parliamentary statements of a more or less disingenuous character, other \u2018nations are active with indefatigable en- .ergy.While we go on talking about a policy of open doors, other nations are : consolidated and extending their spheres of exclusive influence at such a rate that there will soon be no door to open.It does not need \u2018that the Yang-tse Valley should be mortgaged, leased or ceded to another power iu order to deal irreparable injury to British trade and British enterprise.That result will follow upon the concessions obtained by other nations through the political actions of their Governments and the free use of state resources.Against such potent influences it is idle to suppose that British capitalists can fight unaided.They will never obtain so much as a chance to compete unless Her Majesty's Government makes up its mind to define some area of China within which British competition shall have a fair field.In a word, we have secured no \u2018open door,\u2019 we have no \u2018equality\u201d of opportunity\u2019 and even in what we fondly oped was a sphere formally and fully secured to British interests the nations are constructing their railways and consolidating their interests, while nowhere\u2014neither in north, nor south, nor middle\u2014does it seem possible for British capitalists to gain a foogng.Each nation is taking in hand as ch of China as it can deal with, and all are firmly resolved that British trade shall not, if they can help it, effect an entry to their areas.Are we to go on forever trying to keep out the acean with 2 mop, or are we going to take the world as we find it, and to secure at least some area of Chinese territory where British enterprise may have a chance?\u201d \u201cOpen Door\u201d Failed, The lines, \u201cThat result will follow upon the concessions obtained by

that, in self-protection, England cast international morality to the winds and seize that portion of Chinese ferritory to which she éôn- siders herself legitimately entitled.It is a call upon the Salisbury government to make the first grab in an inevitable game of grab.The sole defence so far interposed by the Salisbury government against Russian aggression has been the authorization to Sir Claude Macdonald to say to China that England will protect her in case any foreign government grows vicious because of favors granted to England.In other words: \u2018You give me everything I want, and if the other fellows cut your t¥roat I will de my best to have them fined for it.\u201d This assurance has an element of humor in it, though it is probable that China is past the stage of seeing humor in anything.Will Come to War Yet.On February 14th Sir Claude Macdonald incv.nud ivrd Salisbury that, in response to a rigid note of demand, the Tsung-li- yamen had agreed: 1.That all Chinese rivers should be opened to British gteam- ers.2.That the post of inspector-general of customs should.be always held by an Englishman.3.That no portion of the Yang-tse Valley should ever be lepsed, mortgaged or ceded to a foreign power.The result of these assurances has been: 1.That the Chinese rivers have not been opened to British steamer, except under galling restrictions which make the priv.lege practically worthless.2.The tenure of the English inspector-general of customs is extremely shaky.3.No territory in the Yang-tse Valley has been leased or ceded to any foreign power, but Russia, Germany and France have been granted concessions to invade it with railways, and of these railways the line to be built by the Russo-Balgic syndicate from Peking to Hankow is of deadly import to British trade.How much further the triple alliance in the division of spoils will go before it looks down the muzzles of the Lee-Metford rifles is a matter of conjecture.It is a certainty that public eeling in Great Britain is wrought to a state of tension not reached since the Crimea.The breaking strain of British stolidity and unwillingness to plunge into serious warfare is high, but it has a breaking strain that has been reached more than once in the past, and always with malefic consequences to opponents.What Will Be the Result.The consensus of the military opinion of the old world regards an armed conflict as the inevitable result of the Eastern imbroglio.More than two years ago Lord Rosebery said that the near eastern question (meaning Turkish and Egyptian complications) \u2018was of no importance as compared with the far eastern question, and since that time every day has brought nearer the gigantic combat for a prize of unsurpassed richness.It is held by the militaires that if England fails now to enforce her claims to spheroidal domination of the Yang-tse, she will be forced to fight to preserve her influence from utter ruin, and if she does stake out her possessions she will be forced to fight over a matter of boundary lines.The parties to i the giant conflict are arranged as follows: Russia and Germany on the one side, with France helping them, not only because of community of interest in China\u2019s partition, but because of the Franco-Russian alliance; England on the other, with Japan helping her because of resentment over | Russia\u2019s attitude at the close of bar sue- \u2018cessful war, and in the hope that she may yet gain, or be given, a foothold upon the Asiatic mainland.It will be a battle royal \u2014the preponderance of sea

How you must have suffered! But why on earth didn\u2019t you write home?\u201d And M.de Rougemont laughed heartily.\u201cFor over an hour this amazing man poured forth a series of incidents and adventures, the bare mention of which, apart from details, is astounding in the very highest degree.His departure from his home in Switzerland;

they had not been there long before they felt like shooting bim.What really turned the stomachs of our men, secing the Cuban insurgent for the first time, was that he was lazy, greedy, ccwardly, thieving, and a perfect wild beast for cruetty.The stories that have been coming home in thousands of private letters and public reports are too many and circumstantial on this point to be doubted.Here, for example, is what Ensign Powell of the New York wrote to his friends of what he saw the brave and sunering Cuban soldiers doing on July 3.\u201cWe saw one nice little example of Cuban bravery there.Those sweet, kind, considerate, gentle, abused Cuban soldiers whom we are fighting for were on the beach, shooting every Spaniard that came within range, so that swimmers and boats had to turn back to the ship.And that ship blew up early! We saw a dozen small explosions, and finally one big one that tore the after part of the ship to bits.The Iowa sent a boat, and a torpedo boat also went in, and T\u2019ll bet hose Cubans stopped their butchery in¥short crder under the persuasion of thei?guns.\u201d It is this sort of thing, repeated again and again, which explains the frequent intimations from Washington that the government {8 \u201cmuch concerned\u201d over the conduct of the Cubans, and\u2019 which is } Dr.Coderre\u2019s For 3 : RED Pale and | Weak | P i LL Women.; col.ee ortune Favors the Mighty aa a\" ret THE DOMINION RADI ee And a first-class heating apparatus will produce better results and accomplish more in the coldest weather than an old-fashioned one.Arron ATOR MFG, CO., LIMITED.[Formerly the TORONTO RADIATOR Mra.Co., LTD.,] The Largest Radiator Manufacturers Under the British Flag.AGENTS, H, McLAREN & Co.706 Craig Street, MONTREAL, b DOLD ODL DL Ohi OO Patent \u2026 : Radiators Will do the Best Work.THEY GANNOT LEAK No Bolts, No Packing, \u2014 AND A \u2014 Summer Temperature all Winter.Full particulars from | rapidly producing throughout the country the conviction that it was a victim of a gigantic bunco game in this whole business of Cuban intervention.Yet such a mistake about the character of the Cubans was inexcusable.They were perfectly well known.Travellers, sta: tisticans, historians, geographers had left in no doubt to any one who could read, what they were.Ask any American business man settied in Cuba his opinion of the general run of the natives, and we would have told you any time these twenty years that they were as wretched and Godforsaken a set of human beings as you coud find off the Andaman Islands.In particular was it perfectly certain what kind of men the bulk of the insurgent troops would be found, to be.Many of them bandits by profession, tHéy had all been living the lives of bandits for three years, and could not but have the marks of their calling too plainly stamped upon them to be concealed.Yet our people had gone on idealizing them in stump speech and gitter newspaper, until they had become such superhuman heroes in the popular conception that #he authentic stories coming from the frémb in the past few weeks of Cuban skulking and stealing and murdering have been most disagreeable reading for Americans, and have produced a great revulsion in the general feeling., SCOTTISH UNION National Insurance Co.of Edinburgh.ESTABLISHED 1824, | Total Assets.$44,222 472 83 | Invested Funds.vecucus 23,965,472 83 Invested in Canada 2, 035,940 68 MONTREAL OFFICE\u2014 (17 ST.FRANCOIS XAVIER STREET WALTER FAVANAGEH.Chief Agent, $500,000 to Loan at Reasonable Rates LACHINE RAPIDS LIGHT, be Order electric light for your house, store or factory before the Fall rush.Call or telephone 38 Victoria Square, | A À \u2014 : Eo 7 hd | N SMAKES SOAP) Is unexcslled for = Scouring sione siens & Floors, linolece re 8 pairnl & Jiemoving dird& greass.OND\u2019S SOAP most Marvellous Cleaner and Polisher Teed paverrents, sforwashing Wa not wash cdoîhes.2 À Ris.dar.10 cents = 8 Punces for ICG | à af] Etre Got : te Dairy Utensils clean & Q | Le 3 Eb) | JRC fa Mond, MAKES a VI ; LANDE = Ennnonconscasannannensannas AAA Tin like Silver, Copper à.Paint New.Kitchen vight.Silver beautiful, & NO SCRATCHES A Z.wbsl Beware of dOounce S Ÿ ll] z AU Gpocers sel?2 Ë L000 0K 00MM MoS ea en \u2014 LIVERPOOL, LONDON & GLOBE Insurance Company, CANADA BOARD OF DIRECTORS: Edmond J.Barbeau, Esq., Chairman, Wentworth J.Buchanan, Esq., Deputy do.A.F.Gault, Esq.Samuel] Finlay, Esq.Edward S.Clouston, Esq.Amount invested in Canada .« $ 2,110,000 Available Assets .oo +.388,553,900 Mercantile Risks accepted at low current rates, G.F.C.SMITH Chief Agent for the D , Sub-Agents: 8 6 Dominion.John G.R.Driscoll, Thomas Hia R.Robertson & Sons.=, George Special Agent French Dept.: Cyrille Laurin, FIRE INSURANCE, Montreal!
