Mr.Hoge, the other Longue Pointe proprietor, whose property has been favorably looked upon, said he had not entertained the idea of tendering until his neighbor, Mr.Dillon, had dome so.Then, as he did not wish particularly to be next door \u201ctn a dry dock, he tendered also.\"termediaries were in any way consulted, No in- Mr.Hoee states, his tender being sent \u2018straight to the commissioners.A fourth property, farther west, and near to \u2018the Barsalon-Reford property, 1s owned by Mrs.Law der.To Mrs.Lau der three men went at different times.They were Messrs.Parent, Alley and Darling- ton The first who visited her tried to obtain am option.ofiorts were made, but unsuecessfully.Then the efforts were turned in the direction of buying the property, offered at a higher figure than the 15 cents and 10 cents a foot which Mrs.Lau der eon- sidered a fair price.At these figures the Harbor Board might have the property for $57,700.But Messrs.Alley, Parent and Darlington used all their endeavours, rhen they failed to get an option, to af least have an offer put in for $147,800.| Fheir aim was, of course, to prevent such a disparitv between the Lau d'er and Par- ralon-Reford properties as would be shown by an offer of the former for $57,700, and that for more land than would be necessary, so that a portion might be after- nwards disposed of by the Board, and so reduce the cost of the site.Calling for Tenders.After it was decided at the last session of Parliament that a dry dock was to be constructed for Montreal harbor tenders \"were invited from property owners, who might have suitable locations.When, after some delays, a considerable number had been received, the engineer, Mr.Kennedy, was instructed to examine and report upon such as offered desirable sites for the purpose.Mr.Kennedy reported on October 18.giving the result of observations and tests applied to five properties, the Mor- _ gan, Leney and Dillon-Hogg locations, near Longue Pointe, the Reford-Barsalou site in Maisonneuve, and the Lauder site, about half way between.The Lauder site is on Mr.Parent sem- | an intermediary, but to send us | | proach, and, besides, ito be b | OUU.\u20185v0 more than on the Leney property, the | Kennedy | alongside | such size and location as to protect the | dock entrance and elevators placed upon ) have as Mr.Pre |.a lot of trouble to have asked Mr.Pre \u2018it, and to afford loading and unloadin To this end strennons the north side of the turnpike roaa, which IS an extension of Notre Dane street.All the others are between the road and the iver.All the lots were found to be of pretty much the same character in the matter of soil.A top layer of clay covers a lower layer of sand, which is in ail cases more or less wet.was touched at what would be the upper end of the dock.On this lot also a on.siderable layer of boulders and gravel was found.Lhe three Longue Pointe properties were found to be pretty much alike, with the advantages, so far as cost of excavation was concerned, in favor of the Morgan property; the one farthest east.It is not quite so high above the level of the river as the others so that the excavation would cost about $9,000 less than in the case of the Leney property, which is prae- tically next door.\"Lhe cost in the Morgan case Mr.Kennedy estimates at $130,000 and for the other $132,000.The cost for securing an approach from the channel is set down at $36,000 in each case, a factor which gives them a decided advantage over the Dillon-Hogg property, entrance to which from the river would cost $61,- ooo, or 575.000 more than the others, al- oug e land excavatio - 000 less than Morgan\u2019s.n would cost 87, The western property, the Reford-Bar- salou site, Mr.Kennedy finds would cost $141,500 for land excavation, and $61,000 for dredging an approach, altogether %36,- 900 more than the Leney projerty.The Lauder property became even more costly north side the street, which wou.d necessitate a large amount of excavation for the ap- n a bridge would have | ulit, at an esumated cost of s83,- The land excavation would côst $20,- avvroach 826,000 more $83,000, wav 16 was on the item of land values that the great discrepancy between the castern lots and the Reford-Barsalou lot or pe ceording to Mr.Kennedy's report, the cost of the land actually - ir- ed would be: FY requir Morgan.and the bridge, | ct es sesees ees +6 $47,000 Leney.PT voue cere venenann 49,000 Dilon-Hogg.\u2026 0 cn.52.350 Lauder .cee dates caca 57,600 Retord-Barsalou cies eens .143,000 Mr.Kennedy concludes his report with the observation that \u201cof the sevcral sites thus dealt with, those of Leney, Morgan of the Reford-Barsalou lot, in the event the best.all things considered.\u201d The Mayor's Modification.This did not satisfy the Mayor, who asked Mr.Kennedy to reconsider the case of the Reford-Bars.lou lot, in the vent of wharves being constructed at the approach of the dry dock at that place.Mr.\u2018assumed the building of a pie the entrance of the dock, of 9 : g space for shipss, river craft and cars,\u2019 Allowing for charging the excavation of the approach against the cost tof the wharf, and not against the dry dock, Mr.Kennedy was able to Teport that the cost of dredging an approach, so far as the dry dock was concerned, could be reduced in the case of the Reford-Barsalou, from &61,000 to 36.- 80.The land and land excavation charges were, of course, not charged.At the same time, however, Mr.Kennedy reported that what is known as the inner channel at Longue Pointe could he dredged in such a way as to lessen the costs of securing an approach to the Morgan, Lenev or Hogg properties.How the Case Stands.The following comparisons will show the difference in cost bebween the Leney and Reford properties, under all the condi- tons that have developed up to the present : (1.)

submitted to the Mr.R.B.Reeve, the \u2018general superintendent, who politely re- Settled by Negotiation, quested our representative to wait.He did wait for a considerable time, during which the telephone was busy; but eventually came the announcement, \u201cYes, quite correct.\u201d \u201cWe shall eat our dinner on Thanksgiving day with greater satisfaction by knowing that this trouble is over,.observed another official of the Grand Trunk.The rate war which hus just closed is the Jougest and probabl, uc bitterest that has been fought on the continent of America.Its termination will probabgr mark the beginning of a happier the transportation facilities of Canada and the northern part of the United States.A few words will suffice to recall the beginning of a struggle which has probably, speaking roughly, cost each company! somewhere in the neighborhood of $1.000,- 000.When a new Grand Trunk pres- dent was installed in London a new policy was inaugurated.Mr.Sergeant, who had succeeded Rir Joseph Hickson as zen- eral manager of the system, had to give place to Mr.Hays, an astute, energetic officer, who had gained high repute on the Wabash, and be scun begun to make THE BOARD'S SECRETARY.Mr.Robertson's Successor to be Ap pointed Immediately \u2014 Mr.Robert Bakin Spoken Of.At yesterday\u2019s meeting of the Harbor Commissioners Alexander Robertson handed in his formal resignation, and at was handed over to the Employment Committee.The resignation will take effect on lst March next, so that Mr.Robertson can complete all the work, and also that the new secretary w'll have time to get into the work.Mr.Robert A.Eakin is spoken of as a probable successor to Mr.Robertson.Mr.Eakin thas been in the Harbor Office for seventeen years, for four of which he was assistant secretary.Afterwards he was appointed paymaster and wharfinger, being an expen- enced bookkeeper.Mr.Eakin has taken an active interest in pilotage affairs, whet const\u2019 tute a good part of the secretary's duties; and the pilots are hoping that he may get the apppoi~tment.which th-v claim, the deserves.They are talking ot getting up a petition to the Board, ask- mg for his appointment.It is understood that the positions ot | secretary and assistant secretary will be filled immediately, so that the new secretary will be able to get thoroughly into the work, CHICAGO MARKET.Messrs.J.S.Bache & Co, report the following quotations from Chicago : Nov.23.Opg.High.Low.Close.Wheat Dec.68 684 6734-14 67%-14b May .67 6:33 \u2018 66% 6654b Corn\u2014 Dec.\u2026 \u2026 3344-54 33% 3314-1, 3315-14 May \u2026 \u2014 34%-% 35 34% 3434 Oats\u2014 , Dec.\u2026 \u2026 2% 26% 25% 25% | May + \u2014 26% 26%-7% 264 26%-% Pork\u2014 Dec.\u2026 \u2026 8% 805 7 90 7 90 Jan.eo 922 9 22 915 915 Lard\u2014 Dec.\u2026 505 5 05 4 95 4 95-7 Jan.515 515 5 05 5 O5b Short Ribs\u2014 Dec.ee +.ween 455 455 455 Jan, .472 4 72 4 67 4 67 best 7 Mr.Hogan's Appeal.The Court of Appeal heard arguments | yesterday in the appeal of Mr.Henry Ho- \u2018gan from the decison of the Superior | Court, dismissing his action against the city.Mr.Hogan sought to recover cer- , tain taxes paid by him in excess of what | he owed.He relied upon the act which | declared that it should not be lawful for any municipal council of a city or town to levy a tax exceeding $200 a year upon | holders of licenses under the Quebec License Act.Judgment is reserved.Miniscers Meet.The Provincial Ministers held a Cabinet meeting at the official quarters, on St.Gabriel street, yesterday.A number of important questions were discussed, including the appointment of a police magistrate to succeed Judge Dugas, ete.There , are three or four eligible candidates for the vacancy, and choice is difficult.The appointments, however, will be made \u2014\u2014 \u2014 ee were reduced by a variety of economies, J | i bis presence felt on the system, by cut ting down and improving here, and burfd- ing up and extending there.Expenses into the details of which it is now unnecessary to enter; but amongst the other things which came under the notice ot Mr.Hays was the agreement by which the Canadian Pacific Company had run- rng powers over the North Bay line, which is owned by the Grand Trunk.Lbs agreement expired early in the present vear, and when its renewal came up for .in ! discussion Mr.Havs intimated to the Ca- two companies which practically control madian Pacific that the facilities they row enjoyed would be discontinued, unless they pad a largely increased price for them.This the Canadian Pacific declined to do, and their running powers de facto ceased.The Canadian Pacihc was, of course, at the Grand Trunk's mercy in the use of the North Bay line, ; but there came the Klondike.2 There the i Canadian Pacific could, by cutting rates, make the Grand Trunk feel their strengch.The Grand Trunk answered the challenge thus laid down, and thus the battle began, wih'ch has continued, with almost unparalleled vigor ever since.HOLDEW TURKS QUEEN'S EVIDENCE.Napance, Ont., Nov.23.\u2014(Special.)\u2014The bank roubery case began this morning \u2018at nine o'clock, but it was eleven betore Mr.B.B.Osier, Q.C., bigan lto state the | yesterday afternoon.vase to the jury.; Sixty out of the seventy-two jurors sum- -moned were calied before the jury was complete, The tollowing good men and true are charged with the duty of decid- Qucen\u2019s evidence.All the parties in the case are now here.Detectives Wilkes and Dougherty, of the Pinkerton force, arrived The former only arrived in New York on Monday morning from a journey across the continent, anu bad to leave that evening for Napanee.Chief of Police Healey, of Manchester, N.H,, also arrived last evening, accome- ing whether William hamuton Ponton and panied by Mrs, Healy.Robert Mackie are or are not guilty OI robbing the Dominion Bank: H.£.Smith, North fredericksburg; Thomas Shane, Camden; Thomas Hamilton, Camden; Bar- \u2018ney Dongard, Adolyhustown; William Wilson, Camden; John Hopkins, Sheffield; Anthony McCaugherty, Bath; John ILan- lon, jr., Adoiphustown; Charles Palmer, Sheflie.d ; Edward Kaylor, Exnestown; Neil i pleaded \u201cNot guilty.\u201d Milsap, Camden: James Blute, Richmond.Holden Will Holden will go into the box and testity against his accomplices.This is definit and positive.Some months ago his lawyer approached the Crown authorities with a proposition, which was not entertained.Holden\u2019s confession was taken, however, without any promise being made or hope held out to him.He will, of course, plead guilty arong ; with Pare, and his sentence wii be lett to the discretion of the judge.The order of witnesses in the Ponton-Mackie cass will probably be this: Mr.Baies, the former manager of the bank branch here, will give formal test mony of the roovoery, the amount stolen, and how made up, and so on.Then Pare will tell the story of the robbery, and Holden will follow him.Pare May Go Free.It is very likely that Pare will go free on suspended sentence.It is said that the Attorney-General\u2019s Department has decided on this step, fearing that a term of , imprisonment in his case, even if five or i seven years, would act as a deterrent to criminals in important cases, Give Evidence.{ gol and : fat Mr.Porter's request, stepped in beside Pleaded Not Guilty.His Lordship Mr.Justice Ferguson took his seat on tne bemch shortly after nine o'clock.Mackie was brought in from the praced in the dock, and Ponton, | him.arraigned, both There was some delay in proceeding to swear a jury from the reguiar and additional panels.having got mixed up.Fifty-six jurors in ad were cal.ed before 12 were selected.Of the 44 challenges, 19 were made by the Being formally !

Taxes Struck Out.by Charter Committeee Last Evening, The Charter Committee made a sweep last night of many of the sections imposing special taxes.In the representations made by public bodies to the commi.ctee, objection was in nearly every case taken to those sections which proposed a spe: cial tax, not exceeding $100, om small factories, foundries and workshops, of 3 per cent.of the rental value on tenants paying over $100 per year, and of 3 per cent.on incomes over and above $300 per annum.These sections the committee wiped out last night without hesitation.There were only three members pres- ent\u2014Ald.Ames, McBride and Leporte.New Clauses on Exemptions, Ald.Ames thought that the clauses, adopted at last meeting, defining the property exempt from taxation, were not clear enough, and he introduced the following instead which the committee adopted : \u201cAny building used for the purpose of religious worship, such as churches, par- sorages, bishops\u2019 palaces (and fabriques), the land occupied by the said edifice, amd an addtional area of land, free from buildings and contiguous, equal to that «ccupied by the building used for reliz- ious purposes.The word \u2018parsonage\u2019 shai apply to any house occupied as a residence by the officiating priest or minister of any church in the city, provided, however, that but one parsonage for each church shall have the benefit of the exemption.\u201c Buildings recognized as educational establishments by the Government or subsidized by the Catholic or Protestant School Commissioners to the amount of at least $300 per annum, the lamd occupied thereby, together with such contiguous land as is necessary and used for the inrmediate educational needs thereof.\u201c Buildings actually occupied and used as public hospitals, reformatories, asylums or houses of refuge, the land occupied thereby, and such additional area of land as is necessary and used for the immediate benevolent needs of the said insti tution, \u201c Lands and buildings exclusively ocon- pied and used as V'braries, reading rooms, art galleries or publ'e museum, provided the same are open gratuitously to ihe public.\u201c The buildings used or occupied by any mstitution of hivher education or scien- tifie teaching, duly incorporated or recognized hy the Government, the land occupied thersby, toxether with such contien- ous land as is necessary and used for the immediate educational needs thereof.\u201cTn all cases where exemption is granted to land the same must be the registor- ed property of the institution claiming ex- emntion.\u201cThe ahove exemption from paymant of taxes shall not apply to special taxes or assessments, nor to water rates; it shall not apply either to said lands and buildings, or portions of the same, oceu- pied or utilized for eommercial purposes, manufactori~s, lucrative occupations, busi ness pursuits, arts, professions, or means of profit or evenue whatsoever; and the assessors shall make in such case a special and separate estimation of the value of sench lands and buildings or portions thereof,\u201d The consideration of the sections imposing special, taxes was then resumed.On section relating to a special tax on theatres and other places of amusements, kept for profit, it was decided to limit the amount to $3500, with a sliding scale, according to circumstances.The Saloon Tax.The section relating to the tax on saloons, restaurants, ete., created some discussion.The draft of the charter placed it at $400.Ald.Ames made the following amendment, which was carried : \u201cThe Coun- cli may further impose, by by-law, am annual special tax upon the keepers of all clubs, keepers of inns, hotels, saloons, or restaurants, where wine, beer or spirtu- ous liquors are sold, provided that such special tax shall not exceed 20 per cent.of the streets or terrvit-rv within the on the annual rental value of the portion of the premises and used by such club, inn, hotel, saloon or restaurant-keeper fo! the purpose of trade.\u201d Ald.Ames contended that all saloon keepers should be taxed on their valua- tron; as it was now the larger places reaped the benefit, while the smaller places were compelled to pay a higher rate.Aid.McBride wanted a straight tax of $400 for all.This would bring in an annual revenue from salooms of about $160,- 00U more thau the present revenue.Dr.Weir thought that the difficulty arose in discriminating between saloong and \u2018hotels.Ald.Ames pointed out that the assessed value of hotels and restaurants of the city was ¥3,159,uu0.Mr.Archambault thought the question was an idle ome, for the reason that according to the provincial law a tax of only $200 could be imposed.Ald.Ames drew attention to the fact that such places as the Wiudsor (which paid $1,650 a year) were being imposed upon, as the small ones were not overtaxed.Ald.McBride thought the tax should not be lower than $100 or over $500._ Ald.Ames was in favor of taxing all liquor sellers from $100 to $1,000, accord- Ing to the rental value.He was not in favor of reducing, but making it a maximum of 20 per cent.on the valuation.Ald.MeBride\u2019s plan would be discrimination against the small places, and would close a number of them out.Ald.MeBride replied that that would be a good thing for the city.He moved that a special tax, not exceeding $1,000, and not less than $500, be imposed.This was lost, and Ald.Ames\u2019 motion was adopted.Objectionable Taxes Struck Out.The sub-sections imposing a tax of $400 upon soap, candle and other factories, - foundries and workshops, of 3 per cent.of the annual value over and above $100 on the tenant, and of 3 per cent.on incomes over $300 per annum, were all struck out.The following licenses were agreed upon: Stock brokers and financial agents, 5190; real estate agents and pawnhrokers, ¥200; a special tax, not exceeding $100, on every person opening temporarily a shop to sell therein any vaukrupt stock or other effects; marine, accident or guarantee assurance not exceeding $100; circuses, menageries, travelling exbihitiwns 2d shows, $200 per day; on ferry-men or steamboats plving for hire for the convenience of travellers and freight to or from the city, $400; on butchers doins business outside the citv markets.nat exceeding $50; on bicycles, tricycles, and other vehicles of that kind, $1; on any company, or corporation enjoying any franchises in, over or under, or upon any limits of the city, not exceeding one-tenth of one per cent.on the paid-up capital stock; tire insurance companies doing business and taking risks in the city, Tot exceeding $400; on banks with a capital of one million dollars or less, not exceeding $400; over one million and under two million, not exceeding %500; over two million, not exceeding $600; gas companies, not exceeding $5,000.Sections 8 to 14, dealing with the routine of collection, were passed.On the question of the taation of brewers and .distil'ers, Ald.Laporte took strong ground against taxing manufactures, small or great, who were paying special taxes.Ald.Ames\u2014\"Let us tax the Promotive of Arts\u2019 Association.\u201d Ald.Mel3r:de\u2014\u2018\u2018 Yes,\u2018 and the lotteries and other art unions.\u201d Ald.Ames then moved, and it was resolved, that the reviwers be lasked tn bring in clauses to include special taxes on the following: Breweries and distillers.Promotive of Arts\u2019 Association, bucket shops, lotteries and departmental stores.The sections fixing the business tax and the rate of assessment où real estate will be discussed later., MR.M\u2019CORKILL APPOINTED To Succeed to the Seat of the Late Hon.Mr.Wood in the Legislative Council.It is announced, semi-officlally, that

the tender years of youth and dissipations in after life produce certain private symptoms, covered in a general way by the term Nervous Debility.In other words, the nerves, glands and organs generally are affected.The treatment must, therefore, be one which reaches the entire organism.The above I submit as based upon my experience of 30 years in the treatment of weaknesses of men.I have here

has been confined in the Cherche-Mid] military prison for some time past, on the charge of revealing the contents of certain important military documents to a lawyer engaged in his defence, was taken from the prison by a side door yesterday and was driven to the Court of Cassation.The court, however, was fully oocupied with the examination of Generals Boisdeffre and Conse, and was unable to hear him.Therefore, Picquart was taken back to the Cherche-Midi prison without testifying in the Dreyfus case.The Figaro says the Court of Cassation has manifested a desire to join the Petit Bleu dossier with that of the revision proceedings.General Zurlinden has consequently decided to order the postponement of the court-martial of Colonel Pic.quart, who will likely be transferred to the custody of the civil judicial authorities, and may claim provisional release.The Matin claims to know that the Court of Cassation regards the alleged confession of Dreyfus to Captain Lebrun-Renault as a secondary question which does not necessitate a special enquiry, and it is pos- gible that Lebrun-Renault\u2019 will not be called as a witness.The Matin also says that the Prince of Monaco is about to entrust the Minister of Finance of his principality to Major Forcinetti, formerly governor of the Cherehe-Midi prison, who was dismissed from that position for expressing an opinion favorable to Dreyfus.DAWSON CITY FIRE, It Was the Result of an Accident\u2014A Toronto, Nov.23.\u2014Mr.Justice Robertson vesterday dismissed the motion of eap@scaco0s0e0dna0 00011 boxes of LA INTIMIDAD, oxes of

of Dodd's Dyspepsia Tablets \u2014 No Other Means Possible, If there is ome reason more than any other why women deserve the sincerest sympathy and tenderest care, it is because of the terrible

but surely it cannot be contended that when this man is a witness here, 1 am nat entitled to put before him other declarations, that he has made over his own signature, attaching to the same matter.Suppose Mr.Hughes has taken in this letter an entirely different view, or makes a statement that is entirely at variance with the statement he has sworn to, I am surely entitled to put before him any declaration he may have made about the same matter.It goes to the question of his credibility.I admit for the moment that perhaps IT have not the right to ask him about this $300 ; but I have the right, under the law of evidence, to put before him his own statements, and to ask him whether or not he has signed a declara- Mr.Lafontaine\u2014\u201cDo you refer to state ments made after the publication of the alleged libel 7\u201d Mr.Greenshields\u2014\u201cCertainly.\u201d Mr.C.A.Cornellier, Q.C., counsel for Mr.Hughes\u2014\u201cThat would not be justification of the libel.\u201d Mr.Greenshields\u2014\u201cSuppose he had made a statement that, in the opinion of the court, went to the length\u2014-\u2014\u201d Mr.St.Jean\u2014\u201cTf my learned friend will allow me to interrupt, the complaint is this: Here is a paper published under the responsibility of Mr.Brierley.It contains a criminal libel.The only question before the court is, whether there is à libel, yes or no, and by whom it was published.You cannot go into all kinds of questions and sinuosities.\u201d Mr.Lafontaine\u2014\u201cMr.Greenshields has not finished his argument.\u201d Mr.St.Jean\u2014\u201cThe Herald hopes to have a circulation over this and I want to stop at.\u201d Mr.Greenshields\u2014\u201cYou bave a big contract on hand if you want to stop the cir- HAYCOCK MAIL ORDERS A SPECIALTY.& DUDGEON, 2401=5 St.Catherine Street, and 166=8 Peel Street.base your statement that the article is libellous.\u201d \u201cl have already answered that question.l consider it, from the first to the last, in infamous libel.\u201d French language.jection, I hope.\u201d \u201cOh, certainly, chief,\u201d answered Mr.Greenshields.\u201cBut I hope you will forgive me if I should find that my French is not as perfect as your English.I am reminded, by the way, of the time I was at Regina, during the trial of Louis Riel.Mr.Osler was cross-examining Dr.Roy and they were getting on very well in English until Mr.Osler got his man cornered, when the witness said: \u2018Je veux parler Francais\u2019 I am sure that is not what\u2019s the matter in your case.\u201d It was decided to adjourn the cross- examination again until- two o\u2019clock this afternoon.CLARKE\u2014O'CONNOR- St.Patrick\u2019s Church the Scene of the Wedding Yester Morning\u2014Fsther Callaghan Officiated.: A quiet but pretty wedding was solemnized in St.Patrick\u2019s Chtirch yesterday You will have no ob- | THE NAME : LEA & WORCESTERSHIRE SAUCE may mean anything or nothing unless associated with the extra name when it means the FINEST, the MOST WHOLESOME, the MOST PALATABLE condiment that the skill of man has ever elaborated.Therefore, if you have any regard for your dige&fion you will adhere persistently to PERRINS\u201d\u2019 SAUCE and avoid all imitations.Agents-J.M.DOUGLAS & COMPANY.Montréal.for a sample if you EAUTIFUL TEETH, SWEET BREATH, By Using.Chapman\u2019s Floral Carbolie Tooth Wash E d by leadi ental Surgeons of the city.In bottles, 356 and 50e.Ask your Drugz igri Ear not tried lt before.Sold by druggists.W.H.CHAPT1AN, Pharmacist, 2673 8ST.CATHERINE STREET.Mi.ST, LAWRENCE SUGAR\" REFINING COMPANY O08 arnumnnn AA 28 cour AS comma aa Tr UE § ÿ SP 4 4 4-C #4 è Each year the Granby Rubber Co.add new patterns to fit all the latest shoe shapes therefore Granby ARE ALWAYS Extra thick at ball and heel.UP-TO-DATE.Granby Rubbers wear like Iron.LR JUST FROM JAPAN.A large direct shipment of Japanese China, consisting of Fancy Vases, Umbrella Stands, Jardinieres, etc., etc.these pretty China Goods will be found at each of our stores.They're very low.and look at the prices.A large assortment of Come in The John L.Cassidy Co.Ltd.WHOLESALI\u2014889 and 841 ST.PAUL STREET, Mr.St.Jean objected.bioct .cw ation of The Aerald.\u201d hall à morning.The contracting parties were -IMITED, ?Inland R BRANCHES, Mr.Lafontaine\u2014The objection is} ur.Bb.Jean\u2014\"Well, shall do it.\u201d ;

grammes of the suspected bread, and then adding to this a small quantity of salt, frce from alkali; 10 drops of freshly prepared campeachy wild and five grammes of freshly precipitated calcium

The dish was brought to the table in a silver dish, surrounded by a pierced siiver circle, evidently of great an- tiquitv.The \u201cpommes\u2019\u201d were potatoes served in their jackets.The hostess had unearthed the ring at a sale of Irish antiques, and wished to show how pofatoes were eaten at the date engraved on the ring.Zach guest was invited: to choose his own potato, which was eaten with much solemnity.Then the next course was .served and the primitive \u201cpommes\u201d gave a zest to the small talk around the festive board.There are certain times in our life when every lot seems

well covered with jet paillettes in pretty designs is quite as popular for entire costumes as it was last season, but it is made more elegant than ever by the lavish use of cream or white lace, Venetian point being especially desirable.One pretty theatre waist of white sik has a small diamond design outlined with narrow jet embroidery all over the lower portion, while above this is a fichu

of for- cien photreramhs of medium size from abroad.These have been neatly and artis tically framed, and are remted to students in the college at the modest rate of five cents per month.The picture is

says the Philadelphia Press, was the round Japanese kind wh.ch does not close.This had a small photograph of a friend\u2019s head cut round and placed in the centre, on one side, to represent the hub of a bicycle wheel.Other small photographe, graduated in size, were pasted upon the fan, while between these in gilt were painted heavy lines to represent spokes of the wheel.The outer rim, which was quite heavy, was also gilded to resemble the tire.All the photographs used were bicycle Pictures.Another girl has what has she calls her \u201claugh-and-grow-fat fan.\u201d This was, to begin with, a large, old- fashioned fan of the open-and-shut variety, made of heavy gilt and white paper.On it she pasted, in harmonious relation to each other as regards, size.color and shape, a number of amusing pictures, all snap-shots and generally of friends caught in ridiculous attitudes.These are all outlined in gilt, which brings out the pictures as if in frames, producing a most charming effect.There is really no limit to the dainty ideas that may be planned and carried out in this way.A small fan, scissors, mucilage and the wee snap-shots of the pocket camera.Not one thing more is necessary in order to produce the daintiest of Christmas gifts which won't take a half hour to do and yet will mean so much to the receiver.And then it isn\u2019t necessary to pay out a deal of money for the fan.À five, ten or fifteen-cent article will serve your purpose admirably.And the entire cost of the gift will have been less than a quarter.Woman\u2019s Weapon.\u201cWhat is à woman\u2019s weapon?\u201d 1

answered, \u201cHer weapon is a smile.\u201d \u201cWhat is a woman\u2019s weapon ?\u201d I asked a poet then.With sudden inspiration He seized upon his pen.\u201cOh, T could name a thousand!\u201d He

otherwise than wrong; a violation of the great editorial principle\u2014 *Thou shalt not kill!\u201d \u201d Young Johnson prided himself on his hard sense.It was hard sense he had.Hard to change.He was somewhat set in \u2018his opinions, ; ; The Colonel hadn\u2019t been taking part in the discussion.The Colonel was older than most of us.But this remark of young Johirson\u2019s seemed to start him thinking, for he broke in here with: \u201cI don\u2019t quite agree with you,\u201d he said, and a long argument ensued.The Colonel waxed eloquent in defending his case, but most of the company were against him.Then he took a new tack.\u201cYou have heard of Jack Savage, boys,\u201d he said.\u201cHe was a little before your time, I know, but did you ever hear the story of his life?\u201d There were none of us who had, as 1 remember, so the Colonel had to tell it.Je began: \u201cJack and I were boys together.I was his best man when he married.He was in love, if ever a man was, and, well, she liked him pretty well, too.They were just as happy\u2014as married folks could be.\u201d You see the Colonel was married him- relf and thought it his duty to speak cynically of married life before other people.\u201cJack wanted to spend his honevinoon in a new way, so they planned it for an out of the way resort up in the country, and there they went.There was only one railroad anywhere near the place.\u201cWe heard from them while there.They were in paradise.Which is a way young married people have,\u201d said the Colonel in an aside.\u201cBut Jack\u2019s vacation came to an end ; they had to return.They missed the regu- La in the chest Should always put you on your guard.Pneumonia, Bronchitis and Consumption are giving you warning.Head them off with Dr.Wood\u2019s NORWAY PINE SYRUP.It takes out the pain in the chest, and makes the breathing easy and natural.Nothing like it for Lung, Throat and Bronchial Troubles.From Mayfield, Ont, Miss Lizzie Hardy sends word that she has

instead.Nome fool left a switch open or something and the train ran off the track and over an embankment.\u201cThere were very few passengers in the one dilapidated old passenger coacn, but there might just as well have been a hundred so far as Jack was concerned, for the first sight that met his eyes as he picked himself up out of the dirt was his wife pinioned under the wreckage of half a dozen cars.You can imagine his frantic grief as he saw her lying there with a heavy truck crushing her down, and on top of them a great pie of twisted wood and iron.Her head and arms were free, but the rest of her body held fast.\u201cThe trainmen were to the rescue in a moment.They worked like heroes and began to clear away the wreckage, but, With a warning sound, it settled, and a groan of stifled pain from the unhappy woman told them they had better stop.Meanwhile the wrecking crew at the nearest city, some twenty miles away, had been telegraphed for, but the men said it could hardly arrive in less than an hour.\u201cAll this time Savage was at his wife's side comforting her as best he knew how.She threw her arms around his neck and kissed him.Poor woman ! she evidently knew she had little longer to live.Then , there was another ominous sound and the wreckage settled still further, and with a moan she fainted.\u201cJack\u2019s grief knew no bounds.He tore around like a madman.He cursed the trainmen one moment, the next implored them most piteously to help him.They, poor fellows, felt his sorrow, too, and tried every means to help him.They found a spare rail alongside the track, a pile of cross-ties was placed under one end of it, and with it as a lever, after several attempts a portion of the wreckage was raised.Relieved of the pressure upon her, Mrs.Savage opened her eyes just for a moment.But that moment and that expression in those eves was enough to inspire every man to do his utmost.They bore down still more heavily on the lever, when\u2014horror ! one of the cross-ties slipped out of place and the wreckage dropped down again with a crash ! \u201cScreams of agony burst from the unhappy woman\u2019s lips.1t was an awful thing Just to listen to them.The men stood dumb.They could do nothing.but Jack was at her side in an instant.\u201c \u2018Oh, Jack,\u201d she cried, \u2018can\u2019t vou put an end to this ?Tt\u2019s killing me! The pain is killing me! Put me out of my misery, Jack ! My Jack, T bez you to kill me! I am, dying by inches!\u201d was torture to stand helpless by.It would have been a kindness do have relieved her of the agony hy killing her But he could mot think of such a th ~ She might not be fatally injured.There was the hope of the wrecking train She micht vet be rescued.\u201c\u2018Tean\u2019t! IT can\u2019t!\u2019 he groaned.\u201cThe agony of the situation increased.The wreckage, disturhed by the lever, with a sudden lurch settled again.Another scream of greatest pain was heard.It was a living death for his wife, and again and azain she begged to be put out of her miserv.There was nothing that could be done but wait.But her anguish?Could che stand the strain, the pain?\u201cYou have read about such things, gentlemen, but you cannot realize the anguish of Jack Savage at that moment.He felt for the revolver in his pocket, but his hand Chase & Sanborn, contains the purest, best, and most delicious coffee that expert buyers can procure.Shealso knows that this coffee comes to her in all its original freshness and strength, because leading grocers sell Chase & Sanborn\u2019s Seal Brand Java and Mocha, in one and two pound cans.for the ood Sick \u2014AT THE\u2014 DIET DISPENSARY, 97 Osborne Street.drew back abhorrently.Yet the screams of his wife continued to ring in his ears.\u201c \u2018Jack, dear, darling Jack!\u2019 she pleaded, \u2018I can\u2019t stand it.I can't stand it.Oh, Jack, put an end to this.Kill me! Kill me! It would be God\u2019s mercy to kil! me!\u2018 \u201cIt seemed as if a shiver ran over his body.He was trying to ne-ve himself.Something desperate had to be done.He could not stand that his loved one should be in such misery.He was suffering almost as umch as she.He had been sitting near her trying to keep her cries of distress out of his ears, but of a sudden he arose, before anyone could judge what he wos doing, took his pistol from his pocket and gave it to her, \u2018I cannot do it,\u201d was all he said.\u201c \u2018Kiss me, Jack, dear Jack,\u2019 was her reply._ With almost frenzied passion he threw his arms about her.She drew him even closer to her.There was one long lingering embrace, a word of love\u2014and then\u2014 Mrs, Savage was out of the pangs and pains of the world forever.\u201d : The Colonel paused a moment to collect himself and then continued\u2014\u2014 \u201cNot a word was spoken.The trainmen stood as if dazed.Then the husband bent down and picked up the still smoking re volver.It was but the work of an instant, before anyone could interefere, to place it against his own temples\u2014and Jack Savage had gone to join his wife.\u201d Again the Colencl stopped and felt for his handkerchief.It was rather warm in the room.\u201cThat is the story,\u201d he said.*\u2018And I don\u2019t think there was anything ethically, mom¥ly or religiously wrong about it, either.\u201d 2.And the rest of us, not even young Jackson, had a word to say.\u2014Arthur T.Vance, in the Criterion.| 066006600000 cHHHCOHHOHODE 3 DAILY HINTS TO HOUSEKEEPERS, Se THANKSGIVING DAY.THURSDAY\u2014NOVEMBER 24.Our best, our truest selves, in that new life to be\u2014 O! that were sweetest heaven, I think or here or there, Enough for sons of God, enough for you and me- \u2014John Buckham.BREAKFAST.Cereal with Stoned Dates.Fried Chicken.Baked Sweet Potatoes.Brown Bread Toast.Doughnuts.Coffee.DINNER.Oysters on the Half Shell.Cream of Rice Soup.Roast Turkey.Giblet Stuffing.Cranberry Sauce.Mashed Potatoes.Brussels Sprouts.Celery and Red Cabbage Salad.Plum Pudding.Mince Pie.Lettuce.Cheese.Ice Cream Fruit.Coffee.SUPPER.Lettuce Sandwiches.Chicken Salad.Hard Gingerbread.Cheese.Chestnuts.Fruit Punch.Tea.To Make Mince Meat\u2014Half a pound each of finely chopped cooked lean beef and suet, two quarts of chopned apples, one cup each of stoned raisins, curarnts and sliced citron, of sugar, molasses, boiled cider or strong coffee, one teaspoon each of cinnamon and mace, and one-half teaspoon each of allspice and nutmeg.Dissolve a glass of currant or other tart ie'ly in one pint of water, and mix all thoroughly together.Put in porcelain or agate kettle and heat slowly.Reserve what is needed for use and seal the rest in cams.When making the ples strew seeded raisins over the top \u2018and a little sugar.Bake slowly one hour.Mince ptes have one advantage over dthers, thev may be baked a dozen at a time and piled in the refrigerator, heating when «\u20ac ©5H5H9HHHHHH05HHHHOHHOH00HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHOOOHHHDOHHHHSOHOHSHHHHOHHHSHHHHH00 6H 6660066 wanted.But they are too rich for @ frequent use.© FRIDAY\u2014NOVEMBER %.>» \u2014\u2014 © BREAKFAST.® Malaga Grames.Whe-tlets.Broad Veal & Cutlets, Stuffed Petoto~s.Raised 2% Biscuits.Coffee.® \u2014 © DINNER, © Vermicelli Soup.Roast Lamb.Mashed À Pataitnes.Sweet Corn String Beans.æ Snow Pudding White Broad.æ Coffee.® SUPPER.> Toasted Bread.Salmon Cronuettes.é Preserved Strawherries.Orange ® Cake.Nuts.Tea.® BOOB DBBD BBS 1220600008 Vetaran Actor Dving, New York, Nov.23.\u2014Charles W.Coul- dock, the veteran actor, lie?seriously ill at the house of his eldest son in this city.Mr.Couldock is now 84 years old, and has been on the stage for sixty-three years.The aged actor is suffering from dropsy of the heart.ç \u2014_ BARRISTERS, ATTORNEŸS-AT-LAW, Solicitors in Chancery, Notaries Public, Etc CORNWALL, ONT.Jas.Leith, Q.C.R.A.Pringle.GIBBONS, MULKERN & HARPER, BARRISTERS, SOLICITORS, ETC.Office\u2014Cor.Richmond and Carling Streeta > LONDUN, ONT.Geo.C.Gibbons, Q.C.P.Mulkern, Fred.F.Harper.LG.GLASS, BARRISTER,SOL.C LOR, COMMISSIONER RTC.Canada Life Building, 3rd Floor.MONTREAL.P.O.Box 474, Telephone, Main 3161 BJCHAN, LAMOTHE & ELLIOTT, ADVOCATES, ETC, CANADA LIFE BLDG.189 ST.JAMES ST., MONTREAL.William Reid & Son, ACCOUNTANTS AUDITORS, INVESTORS, INSURANCE BROKERS.FRED, G.REID, Special Agent for Sun Kire Insurance Co.39 ST.JOHN STR HET, FINLAYSON & GRANT Custom House Brokers, Forwarders and Warehousemen Bell Tel.Main 1303.P.O.Box 424 LAKE OF THE WOODS MILLING CO, LIMITED.The Most Perfect Mills in Canada.Keewatin, 2,250 bbls.per day;
