nN , \\ are not protected as distant purchasers are, that, worse than that, Montreal gets as a consequence the meat that will not pass for exportation.All are agreed that Montreal owes such protection to her citizens.Yet when the Health Committee asks for a grant of $8,500 to pay for the necessary eight additional meat in- spectors\u2014surely a moderate enough payment for men of the veterinary knowledge, probity and determination requir- Health Committee that appropriations for salaries are made in May and that till then nothing can be done.\u2014___ The Provincial Government is said td have decided to appoint at an early date a resident Agent General in London, England.The proposal has been well received in business circles in Montreal, and would no doubt receive the hearty endorsement of such bodies as the Board of Trade and Chambre de Commerce.With the opening up in the near future of the vagt tracts of land in the northern part of the province, it 18 certainly our duty to make use of every possible means of bringing before the capitalists and emigrants of Great Britain the immense pos- minerals, farm lands, water powers, timber limits, and so forth.With this end in view, it is essential that the province should be represented: by one who is qualified to do justice to such important work.He should be either a Canadian, and a native of this province, or a long resident here, with sufficient knowledge and experience to speak of our affairs with authority: he should have a connection in financial and social affairs in London, which would give him the entree into the official life of the metropolis: and he must, most important of all, be a.man of high character, who will at all ti- Ontario and British Columbia are »lready well represented in England and this province is very well represented in France, but in respect to the Old Country, hitherto, the frerests of the province of Quebec have been neglected.re German criticism of the voyage of the United States fleet around the world is interesting.The practical German mind regards the voyage as a vaunting promenade of naval armament, designed to impress all nations with the offensive as well as defensive power of the Republic, a whirling flourish of the Big Stick over the heads of all creation to let them know that it is not only a world power, but the world power.It is admitted that only a giant could \u2018hus play with a giant's toy; only a giant's purse, plethoric with bulging billions, could stand the expense.This is infer- entially acknowledged, not without a touch of envy, which seeks consolation, however, in asking, \u2018What\u2019s the good of \u201cit ?\u2019 Then follows the inevitable comparison.The United States fleet, like that of Germany, is a new creation, to be carefully nursed, developed and kept in serviceable trim for all possible emergencies.To send it gallivanting on a trip of circumnavigation is, in German opinion, an extravagant waste of money, men and material, for when it gets back to Hampton Roads it will have become a collection of seaworn iron pots and kettles, needing reconstruction in all its parts, or, possibly, replacement with an entirely new fleet.Meantime the German fleet, assiduously kept spick and span and cruising about just enough to keep its machinery from getting rusty and its men in form fit for fighting, will be as good as ever.To this criticism the naval expert writers of the United States respond with characteristic Roose- veltian phraseology, saying in effect that the Kaiser may take delight in mollycoddling his navy, but the American fleet was built for service and employment must be found for it; darn the expense! Out of it all comes the question as to what sort of thing the most modern of navies can be that considers it a triumph to have faced the high seas withéut disaster in summer time, and that must, according to experts, be turned into old iron by sailing round the world.OUR PERFECT SYSTEM.The \u2018Bankers Magazine,\u2019 of the United States, tells a story in the current number about a congressman, a man nearly eighty years of age, who sat in his editorial chair in a capital city, trying to unravel the tangle of money matters so that he could give the wage-earning people stme hope through his paper.But every thread he mentally tried to disentangle broke, or was so mixed up with others that he came to a full stop.There was no key, no centre, nothing thal suggested a solution for the undoing of it.\u2018I have heard of the Canadian \u2018bank system,\u2019 he said to a Canadian friend, \u2018 do you have these money strin- \u2018gencies in Canada?\u2019 And the Canadian answered boldly,\u2014the incident must have occurred before Mr.Fielding * assisted\u2019 the banks\u2014\u2018 No!\u2019 Lest however, says the friend and the writer of the article upon the \u2018 Canadian Banking ed, the Finance Committee informs the] \u2018newly-settled parts, -but very few of them, sibilities that we shall have to offer in |.times represent the province with distine- | THE MONTREAL DAILY WITNESS System,\u2019 \u2018I might have said what was \u201cnot strictly true (so hurtful were the \u2018impressions of the inability of city na- \u2018tional banks to pay cash there), I \u2018took the night express to Buffalo and -\u201c came home to Canada to find out.\u2019 \"She\u2014Mrs.E.B.B.Reesor\u2014found out that all was well, and she goes on to explain our bank note system, and why it 18 so adequate, so perfect! L Banks collectively are responsible for the circulation of every other bank.Every bank is allowed by law to open branches.Some of the oldest banks have nearly 100 branches stietching like a chain across the Dominion from the Atlantic to the Pacific \u2014and away to the Alaska northlands.These branch banks gather the money lying idle in the prosperous, well-settled parts of Canada and carry it to wherever it may be most needed, thus allowing the where development is going on.the use of capital at the same rate of interest at which it could be had at the point of deposit.Canadian chartered banks are allowed by law to issue notes to the extent of their paid-up eapitas:.if any, have ever don$ so.The whole of their powers has never been used in note circulation.the Nearly forty banks, continues , writer, with branches reaching away into the hundreds, are issuing notes every day.Each bank desires the circulation of its own notes, and keeps pushing them on and on, and sending back the notes of other banks.There can be no stagnation, for the money is kept everlastingly moving.\u2018The branch bank \u2018system of Canadian banks, and the cir- \u2018culation of bank notes, with their ac- \u2018 tual, daily redemption, keeps the money \u2018moving in a normal healthy way, and \u2018 will always prevent a serious condition \u201c of tied-up financial affairs which comes \u2018about so often in the fall of the year \u201cin the United States of America.\u2019 Most people, after reading this, even those who do not follow banking matters so closely as they might\u2014for, after all, banking law and practice should be the concern of the many and not be left to the few\u2014will agree with Professor Flux, in his recent letter to the * Witness,\u201d tbat we should not allow ourselves to be smitten with \u2018 The Con- \u2018tagion of a Bad Example,\u2019 but should stick to a note-issuing system that has been tried and has never failed in any single particular.Mrs.Reesor remarks: \u201cThe majority of \u201cintelligent-thinking Canadians have \u2018 never taken the trouble to understand \u2018the perfect working of their own bank- \u2018ing system,\u2019 and that is true, but she herself, after taking much trouble, makes the singular mistake of declaring: \u2018There\u2019 \u2018 was not the shortage of money in Can- \u2018ada that there was in the United States.\u2018I was told emphatically by men who \u2018 understood both the law and the meth- \u2018ods of Canadian banking as clearly as \u2018they knew that two and two make four, \u2018that such conditions could not possibly \u2018exist, and, not only is the circulation \u201cof money always healthy, but also that \u2018no depositor in a Canadian chartered \u2018bank can ever lose one cent of his de- \u2018 posit, even though the particular bank \u2018in which his money is placed should \u201cfail Every bank in the Dominion of ¢ Canada stands sentinel and protector \u2018for every other bank, and no Canadian \u2018bank note can be dishonored.\u2019 Of course, no Canadian banker could have said that.It is true that by a happy arrangement the depositors in the Ontario and Sovereign banks were taken care of to the fullest extent, but that was a voluntary arrangement, and only pos sible because there happened to be sufficient assets to pay depositors, but at the expense of the shareholders.To declare that \u2018no Canadian bank can be dishonored\u2019 is strange reading in a \u2018Banker's Magazine.\u201d Unfortunately, the memory of the Banque du Peuple, the Banque Ville Marie, the Bank of Yarmouth, and other fiascos, still persists, and there is no guarantee that similar desasters will not occur again.Especially is that fear warranted should there be any unwise tinkering with the Bank Act.The principal reason why we do not require a so- called \u2018emergency\u2019 currency is that we have a real emergency currency already.Our currency expands and contracts with every emergency.Lest the testimony of a tyro in business should count for little with Canadians, who look to Washington for financial wisdom, jt may be well to quote here the words of, Mr.Carnegie on the comparative merits of the two banking systems.\u2018Americans \u2018have many advantages, he says, \u2018upon \u201cwhich they plume themselves as being \u201cin advance of other nations, but, while \u2018their banking sastein 1s the worst in \u2018the civilized world, Canada has 4 pro- pev method of banking.\u2014-\u2014 MR.BURNS AND BEER.The boldness of John Burns in refusing to be intimidated by the \u2018bung on the bounce\u2019 surprises a cable correspondent, whose fashion it is to try to belittle and obfuscate everything Liberal and progressive.It is no doubt unfortunate for the government from a tactical point of view that it should have to introduce\u2019so many controversial measures in one session; but the Liberal party is doing nothing in excess of what it promised before it came into office, and its leaders, Mr.John Burns, Mr.Asquith, and others are not the men to be intimidated into denying their promises and shirking their duty.As the \u2018Westminster Gazette,\u201d a leading Liberal organ, says, the Liberal party finds itself, as in 1894, challenging the great interests, Church, Land, and \u2018The Trade,\u201d at the same moment.The party finds itself forced, the \u2018Westminster Gazette\u2019 explains, to bring on all these measures at once by the tactics of {he House of Lords, which by killing one measure in one session and another in another would leave the government nothing to do but fight stale battles over and over again, making no progress, and finding itself at the weary fag end of a parliament with a bundle of unfulfilled promises on its hands.As Mr.John Burns says, however, the party will continue firmly to meet the opposition to its measures, which will give way, it is predicted, because serious and sober people who reflect upon the evils of drink in England, and who see around them the results of letting the trade pass out of the control of the state, will sympathize with a government which has the courage to face the clamor.An agitation such as we have seen on foot in the constituency of Peckham must in the long run defeat itself, even if it has secured a momentary success, before the bill had been argued and understood.But to make victory secure, the Liberal ¢ party needs the effective support of the \u201cworking classes themselves.If they \u2018stand aside, or if their leaders in the \u2018House of Commons waste their energy \u2018in debating with the government on the \u2018 ultimate reconstruction of society, while \u2018working class voters yield to panic \u2018about the poor man and his beer, the \u2018brewer, for the present at all events, * will have it all his own way.tl SUCCESS.What is success?In mad soul-suicide The world's vain spoils rapaciously to seize, To

illness of the Prime Minister forms a sombre background to men's thoughts in and out of parliament.Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman's unaffected straightforwardness, and the happy combination of qualities which cnables him to hold his convictions firmly, irrespective of popular tides of opinion, while at the same time he can waive his own opinion when advisable, in deference to colleagues\u2014makes him in many respects an ideal leader; and the affection he enjoys from those who surround and follow him has been \u201clainly visible in these last weeks.Mr.Balfour and his friends have shown the chivalrous consideration which is characteristic of our politicians of all parties in their personal relations, and the marked attention of the Royal Family has been much appreciated.The King's personal visit to his chief minister before leaving for Biarritz was as courteous as it was unconventional, being, indeed.quite without precedent.The bulletins of the last two days have revived hopes which were previously waning, and men recall to-day how Nir Henry's brother, many vears his senior, is at present recovering strength after an illness of the most serious nature.Mr.Asquith announces that the second reading of the Licensing Bill will be taken before Easter, and till that time practically nothing else will occupy the arena.The by-election at Peckham which will be over when this letter is read, is the focus of the strife for the moment.A suburban constituency which at the last general election went strong- lv.Liberal, and at the previous one went as strongly Tory\u2014Peckham is not thought a certain seat by either party.I'he contest is being fought on the Hi- censing question, and the expectation that the majority on one side or the other will be small lends zest to combatants who without it would be eager enough.There are signs the country over that the big brewers are overdoing their part, and the better elements in the Conservative party are dissociating themsclves from \u2018the trade.\u201d Thus the Morning Post) the ablest exponent of Conservatism, takes an independent attitude and points out hat \u2018the Op position to any time limit (and the brewer say.\u2018a time limit of any description is confiscation\u2019), implies a.claim to perpetual renewal of annual licenses\u2019\u2014in fact.a freehold in property which Mr.Balfour as clearly as Mr.Asquith sees 18 now held on a tenure definitely less than freehold.It is to be fervently hoped that the question will become less and less a party one.It is really the \u2018trade\u2019 versus the rest of the nation, Moxpar, Marcu 30 re and all the best elements in the nation need to combine if the bill is to be car ried in the teeth of the well-organized opposition of those who, if they lose wealth will lose it, not because the government proposals are \u2018confikcatory,\u2019 hut because they have speculated in licensed property regardless of value.The leaders of the Church of England Temper: ance Society have, not unanimously.but still heartily, given their support to the bill.This was done at a meeting ot the executive, with the Arehbishon of ' Episcopal bench,\u2014advocating Canterbury in the chair.and the Bishops of London and Birmingham- two ol the strongest spiritual forces on the the line ot action that was taken.This is a great step towards victory for the hill.With the Church of England.in the main, in its favor.and also the generou- spirited conservatism represented hy the \u201c Morning Post, the government should be able to pass the incasure net only without weakening its ] but even strengthening them in some di rections, notably in those directions in which the resolution of Church temperance leaders indicated that they would be strengthened.After all, the \u2018Times\u2019 is not to fall into the hands of Mr.Arthur Pearson.The provisional agreement was objected to by some of the provrietors, and sa had to be cancelled.The nublic is not told what means have heen found tor supplying the needed capital, but everyone 1s relieved to have the official announcement that the directors of the new company formed to take over the \u2018limes\u2019 are all existing members of the Mr.Moberly Bell as managing director.and that there will be no change in the direction of the paper.which will proceed on the same independent lines.The canard floated Dy the \u2018Times\u2019 last week anent the private correspondence of the German Emperor and Lord Tweedmouth was certainly a most unfortunate episode for a paper essaving to take a fresh lease of life.Nothing could have been conceived in a worse Spirit or carried to a more undignified conclusion.The stern censure of hath front benches in parliament happily suf ficed to end the incident in a wav dig nified for all parties except the \u2018Times.\u2019 The following notice hangs in strag- cling letters over a little \u2018collector's\u2019 shop in Gray's Inn Read : \u201cOther shops charge more for Portuguese stamps since the assassination.Our price is the same.We make no profit out of murder.\u2019 CATHOLIC MARRIAGE LAWS ERNING MINED MARRIAGES.The recent decree of the Congregations of the Council, enacted at the demand ot Pope Plus A, and which will govern the question of marriages the Catholic world, trom Easter Sunday.1808, was promulgated 1n all the churches of the archdiocese of Montreal, vester- day.The first part of the decree refers to betrothals and it 1s enacted that in order to be canonically valid such betrothals must be in writing, signed by the parties themselves, and also by their pastor or bishop, or by at least two witnesses.If one of the betrothed, or both, canuot sign, this must be mentioned in the written document.and another witness must sign with the pastor or bishop or with the two above-mentioned witnesses, As regards marriage itself, the general rule laid down 1s as follows: \u2018Are only valid the marriages contracted before the pastor or the bishop of the locality, or a priest delegated by one of them, and before at least two witnesses.\u2019 Explanations follow as to where and when pastors or their delegates have proper jurisdiction: as to the permission given to contract marriages before any priest, and two witnesses, when the proper pastor, bishop, or their delegate cannot be secured, and there 1s danger of death, and also as to the vahdity of a marriage contracted before two witnesses, in the event of the pastor, hish- op, or their delegate not being available for a period extending bevond one month.Article XI.of the decree reads a: follows :\u2014 1.The above-mentioned enactments bind, every time they contract between themselves a betrothal or a marriage.all those who have been baptized in the Catholic Church and all those who have become converted to that Church from schism or heresy (even should they have afterwards apostatized).2.These enactments are also in force for those same Catholics above mentioned.if the contract or Metrothal or marriage with non-Catholics, either baptized or not baptized, even after obtaining dispensation for the 1mpediment resulting from mixed religion or disparitv of creed, unless it has otherwise established by the Holy See for a special region or locality.3.Non-Catholies, either haptized or not baptized, if they contract between themselves are in no way held to observe the Catholic form of betrothal or marriage.\u2019 22 DEATH OF A TRAVELLER.Mr.David J.Stephen, a well-known commercial traveller of this city, died at his

it 15 too rich.The little roots must have bread with their jam\u2014yes.\u2019 The next day the border was planted.\u201cIt 1s all ready, Mr.Trommel,\u2019 said Mary, when the gardener came to help her put in the seeds.\u2018lI combed and combed it, and the tangles are all out.The old gardener scrutinized the smooth earth critically.\u201cLhere are little brown threads of roots\u2014see, there and there, he said, pointing at the ot- tenders.\"Do those little things make any dit- ference ¥* questioned Mary, incredulously.* Those little brown things will make trouble for the sweet neas just as soon as they can.They are roots of iniquity, Liebchen; we must not have them in our garden.lt 16 casier to tradicate evil when it is little than when at grows big.\u2019 \"I think so.\u201d agreed the undergarden- er, dutifully, pulling out the small root fibres, \"Now we are ready!\u2019 she said, with a breath of relief.\u2018And we put them cake,\u201d remarked in deep.Deep as my finger ?\u2018No.no! We better make à trench.Can you make one with your little hoe Y \"1 can make a beautiful one.have it here by the fence.\u2019 \u2018They better go by the wire, Lieb- chen.\u2018They like more air than they would get by the fence; they have the little wings you know.Besides, we did not make the ground \"here so rich as here; that is for the nasturtiums.It 15 among the plants as among the pretty ladies\u2014you can judge nothing of the appetite by the looks.Now, you would think that ot the two the nasturtiums would like the most to eat, they run so fast and are sq tull of hfe and color.But no! thay will be happy on poor soil, sandy soil, with almost noth- Ing to eat; they do not mind much going thirsty.But the sweetpeas, so dainty and delicate, they will vet eat all the food you can give them, and they drink, drink\u2014-aber\u2014-nothing but water, although they like the hquid manure.\u2018 They've lots to eat here, said Mary, with satisfaction.\u2018Now, I'm going to dig the trench.1 think I'll take mv shovel,\u201d she decided, after\u2019 considering her implements with the care of a cautious golfer.\u2018Shovels and trenches seem to go together, Mr.Trommel.\u2019 \u2018It is small, assented the old man; \u2018it will not do much harm.\u2019 \u2018So far from the wire ?\u2019 questioned she, putting in the shovel about three inches from the wire.Let's DOMINION LINE FCYAL MAIL STEAMSHIPS.From PORTLAND From MONTREAL Welshman, Apr.1 *Dominion, May 2 *Kensington, Apr.11 *Ottawa, May 3 *Canada, Apr.18 *Keusingtou, May 16 \u201cThese steamers carry j'assenvers.Steanmiers sail from Fortisnd, ?p.m.The \u2018CANADA\u2019 is one of the fastest and most comfortable steamers in the Canadian trade.First-Class rate, $65.00 to $77.50.Class, $42.5¢ and upwards, steamer, MODERATE RATE SERVICE.To Liverpcol, $43.00.To Lendon, $2.50, additicnall Second- according to Third-Class to l.iverpool, London.Lon- donderry, Belfast, Glasgow, $27.50.FORTLAND TO BRISTOL(AVONMOUTH)Y TURCOMAN .ce ve ve ee vo.Apri 8 For all information, apply to local agents, or to DOMINION LINE, 17 St.Bacrament Street, Ment real.Atlantic City, NJ COME TO ATLANTIC CITY And enjoy the delights of early Spring.The world-famous boardwalk and its procession of Roller Chairs is never more enjoyed than at this eceason of the year The Casino, Piere and Country Club are at their best.HOTEL DENNIS Maintains an unobstructed view of the Ocean and bcardwalk, is most liberally appointed and conducted on the American Plan.Hot and cold sea water in private and public baths.Write directly to the owner and proprietor for {information and rates.WALTER J.BUZBY.\u201cTHE SALT BREATH OF THE SEA BRINGS HEALTH.\u201d GALEN HALL, Atiantio City, N.J Hotel and Sanatorium, Bathe and mascage in our well equipped departments will help many suffering from the strain of recent financial disturbance.Trained attendants only.} Baths open to guests à other hotels.F.L.YOUNG, Manager.HOTEL TRAYMORE, Atlantic City, N.J.Open Throughout the Year.A HOTEL CELEBRATED FOR HOME COMFORTS.TRAYMORE HOTEL COCHAS.0.MARQUETTE, D.S.WHITE, Manager.President.ITS == Music and Art.tt,\u201d \u2014\u2014\u2014 es + Nae ELOCUTION and PUBLIC SPEAKING IN ALL !TS BRANCHES.Private Le-sons in the evening.Fa: terms, address, R.McGLAUGHLIN, Tel.W.1560.& Burton ave.OTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Royal Jrstitution for the Advancement of Learning, overnors of Mc- Gill College and University, will apply to the Legislature of the Province of Quebec, at its next scesion, for an Act enabling them to expropriate immovable property, and for other purposes.W.VAUGHAN Secretary.Montreal, 29th February, 1908.YOUR KIDS CLEANED.The cleaning of kid gloves in our way gives great satisfaction to most fastidious people, R.PARKER & CO.Dyers and Cieaners, Montreal, Qu.620 ât.Catherine St, W,, Cor.Mountain.and 392 Netre Dament.West, Phones : Be'l (Up) 3011.Main 1597.LD NEWSPAPERS Bullable lor wrapping purposes, for sale ar the \u2018Witness' Office, \\m 16 lb.packages, at $1 per 100 lbs \u2014 Mr.Trommel nodded.\u2018Can you make it straight 7?\u2018]l have a string,\u201d said the under- gardener, proudly, pulling one hand in her apron pocket; \u2018I made that myself out of two clothespins, and it rolls up so.See,\u201d she said, holding up à clothespin and string arrangement.* Clothespins are very useful, Mr.1rommel.\u2019 \u2018That is a most interesting contrivance,\u201d said Herr \u2018lrommel.* Now, you hold this clothespin here.\u2019 said the wundergardener, briskly, \u2018while 1 walk toward the fence and unroll the string, just as if you were holding a kite for me to fly.You can\u2019t stick the clothesnin in first and then stretch the string, because it pulls out,\u2019 she explained: (To be Continued.) | ALLAN LINE.KOYAL MAIL SERVICE, TU LIVERPOOL.From From St.John.Halifax.VICTORIAN .Mar.27 Tar.23 CORSICAN .Apl.4 \u2014\u2014\u2014 VIRGINIAN .Apl.10 Api.11 TUNISIAN .Apl I8 \u2014\u2014 VICTORIAN .Apl.24 Apl.25 FROM MONTEEAL AND QUEBEC.CORSICAN, May !, May 2, Juve 26.VIRGINIAN, May 8, June 5, July 3.TUNISIAN, May 15, June :2, July 10.VICTORIAN, May 22, June 19, July 17.Midship saloons, Cabine du luxe, spacious promenade decks.electric lights throughout SALOON, $70.00 and upward, accordingto steamer SECOND-CLASS Liverpoul, Londonderry, $43.00 and upwards + HIRD CLASS Liverpool, London or Belfas, $27.5v and 323.75, ACCordiug tu eLcamer.TO GLANGOW From From Portland.Hoeton.LAURENTIAN 0.Mar.6 SICILIAN .Ap 2 \u2014\u2014 PRETORIAN ., .Apl.9 IONIAN \u2026 .Apl 16 = One Class Cabin, calied \u2018Second Cabla.'

And the little less, and what worlds aw How a sound shall quicken content to bliss, Or a breath suspend the blood\u2019s best play, And life be a proof of this.: \u2014Browning.+ The interest excited by Uolonel Edge- combe's return was great and lasting enough to satisfy even his mother\u2019s estimate of his importance.It was long since the l'unstall people had had any one among them with so much claim to be considered a hero, and they were determined to show that they estimated the advantage to its full extent.- Ever if there had been no story about him, lus gay sociable temper and cordial manner to rich and poor would have made bim a great gain to any country society.As 1t was, there was scarcely a person in the neighborhood who did not find his or her life more or less brightened by his presence that winter.The county magnates exchanged unwont- e® entertainments in his honor, and the humble townstolk enjoyed the almost daily pleasure ot seeing him ride down Tunstall High Street, and of con- Jeeturing concerning the business or pleasure that brought him so often into their little town.It seemed to one or two people even as 1t the season itselt shared the general hilarity, and allowed a certain premature air ot spring to sot- ten the rigor of the early months of the year.Certainly the young ladies winter bonnets made unusual haste to exchange their dark trimmings for more becoming colors.People began to find out earlier than usual that the lengthen- mg days were favorable for country rambies, and picnics were.planned to the Combe woods before the bulrushes flowered in Mr.Serles fields, or the cat- kius hung out their golden balls in the lhgh Combe hedges.Uf course there were a few cissentients from the gen- cral good Humici, who chose to make a grievance of their neighbors being merry without sutlvient cause.Arthur Yonge was one of the most determi of the grumblers.He and Clemency bP ranklyr seldom met without quarrelling over their different opinions respecting the little gaieties and pleasure schemes with which the mind of Tunstall was nfe that spring.It was not that Arthur might not have had his full share in them if he had chosen.Colonel Edgecombe and Clemency Franklyn were equally set upon drawing him into the society they frequented, and their united influence would have effected any revolution in Tunstall opin- lon at that time.Colonel Kdgecombe sought Arthur's so- cietv from a Hamon-hke desire to win over the only person, with whom he had come in contact, who was not disposed to court him; and Clemency persisted in pressing invitations upon him, because she wanted the countenance of her old companion and monitor to silence some scruples that troubled her sometimes, as to the frivolity of her present pursuits.They courted and insisted in vain.Arthur grew more sulkily independent than ever, and resented their efforts.at patronage (as he called them) so fiercely that Miss Arnays felt moved now and then, when he was sitting alone wilh her.to remonstrate on the unchristian spirit of pride she feared he was fostering.She, could not understand why anvone should he averse to receiving the kindnesses, she to whom joyful giving and thankful receiving were equally natural-\u2014-the very breath of her hfe.1t puzzled her, too, that her gentle assurances of Colonel Edgecombe\u2019s goodwill and kind intentions invariably had the effect of increasing instead of molli- fving Arthur's ill-hnmor.Miss Arnays had many opportunities of inthcting her gentle httle lectures; tor Arthur seldom failed to come and sit with her in the sme searing from any ect of cold.\u201d a ht sf Craig.For Qfices or Warehouse, Wight aad attractive; heated, and newly decorated Apply to \u2018Witness\u2019 Building.Cottage to Let.AT VAUDREUIL STATION, TD LET A nicely situated 8 rcom ccitage, completely furnished, with the exception of silver, cutlery and papery: water in house.Apply 60 University street.METIS \u2014 SUNNYSIDE COTTAGE, LEG- get's Point.Good Boarding House;

Horribly Mutilates Man v New York, March 28.\u2014A red flag fluttered in Union square to-day, a bomb fell, two men lay dying in the people's playground, and New York awoke to the fact that it harbored those prepared to give their lives in armed resistance to constituted authority.The bomb was intended for the police, who, with rough firmness, had broken up a meeting of 10,000 unemployed.It exploded prematurely in the hands of the assassin, hor- vibly wounding him, killing his compan: jon, injuring slightly four policemen, and throwing together a score of those who were massed in the vicinity.To-night Union Square park, where the demonstration was made, has been roped off, and 100 police patrol the boundary streets and at the station houses 1,500 reserves, armed with revolvers and night sticks, await in readiness to throw themselves into any scene of rioting.No further disorder has developed at a late hour.Bomb-throwing in the foreign settle ments of the Fast Side is rather a common occurrence, but for the first time to-day saw an engine of destruction openly and deliberately directed against a squad of police.It was meant for Cap- {ain Reilly\u2019s squad of twenty men, and a longer or slower burning fuse would have perfected an instrument of death for probably every man of the 21.A labor.or.more exactly, a laborless meeting, without police sanction, had been advertised to be held at the park this morning.In the thousands gather ed were many of a riotofic disposition, a large number wore red hats, and here and there a red flag was disnlayed.Suddenly an order to clear the park was given.and the 130 police, half of them mounted.charged the jeering.hooting crowd, driving them back to the streets of the square circling the park.In the wide streets the crowds.fast assuming the nature of a mob, fell into an indifferent formation and marched about the suave.Having cleared the park of all but a few anparentlv harmless men.who occupied the benches.the police contented themselves with keeping the paraders moving.Encouraged.the procession grew.shouts of deririon an esths directed at the molice filled the air.and then.as though by nre-arrange- ment.the strains of the \u201cMarseillaise\u201d rose, The police.hastilv reinforced, held themselves in restraint.Cantain Reillv's souad.which had heen stationed at the east side of the square.started at a deuble-quick nace.two abreast.across the park.® As they neared the fountain that marks the centre of the recreation grounds.a slightly-built man darted out from the shadow cast by the statue of Gororge Washington, and ran toward the officers.whose backs were now turned to their pursuers, A large gathering kent at the other's heels, Within twenty paces of the squad the two men halted, and the smaller raised a hand in which woe clasped a smoking bomb, Ax he drew back his arm to throw the wea- it exploded.The shock, that shook pon.the skyscrapers of the square, threw a ) The as- score of peonle to the ground.casein and his companion fell, the latter dead with his breast torn out.The bomh-thrower was still alive, but his right hand had been shot off, both of his eves were gouged out, and his skull and a shoulder were fractured.The four policemen who brought up the rear were injured.but not seriously, one being bit in the foot by a piece of the bomb.A panic followed.and thousands that surrounded the park crushed to- pether as perhaps half of the number rushed towards the scene of the killing, while as many more turned in flight from the square.Many were injured as the mounted police surrounded the injured, and again drove hack the mob.THE BOMB- THROWER.A half dozen arrests were made off: hand of those nearest the bomb-throw- ing, but no particular importance is attached to them.Little is known of the bomb-thrower beyond what he has told himself.Rerdered unconscioys at first, hie later regained his senses at a hospital, and.under prolon~~1 auestioning, declared that he had been commissioned to kill the police.They had beat him, he «aid.At first he insisted that he acted alone.and later, when he said that his act was inspired, he refused to reveal the identity of his companion.His first statement was: \u2018T am Selig Silver: -tein.21 years old.and T live at 21 Van Brunt street, Brooklyn.I was entirely alone in this thin.no other person ya in league with me.T made the bomb fram directions T got from the encyclopaedia: T was ten feet from the police, and T wanted to throw at them.T was mad; a cop had hit me.The bomb went off in my hand.\u2019 Later he added: \u2018T was told to do this.1 bought the nitro-glycerine for the bomb at a drug store at Clark street and Broadway, Brooklyn.I made the bomb myself from a piece of gas pipe.I have a wife and two children in Russia.I have been in the United States two years.My nearest relative is named Cohen, and lives at 21 Park street.Brooklyn.[I worked for a tailor.Goldstein.on El drive street, near Broome street, Man- ahattan\u201d Silverstein refused to incriminate oth- eXs, and nothing further has been learned\\from him.THE DEAD ANARCTIIST.Qilverstein\u2019s companion was later identified as | natz Hildebrandt, Third avenue.Mi:: llildebrandt, a sister, after identifving ler hrother\u2019s body, said he was 54 years alt.They were both natives of Pavar:u.He was a bushel man in a sweatshor.she said.but had not worked at his trade since last Thanksgiving.She declared that he was not and BOMB THROWN AT NEW YORK POLICE BY ANARCHISTS.His Companion\u2014Four Policemen Injured.eeepc Who Threw it and Kills bad not been a member Of any anarchist or soclalistic society.Silverstein\u2019s room in Brooklyn was scarched to-night, and considerable literature seized.The police also found a sealed and stamped letter addressed to Alex.Berkman.NO ORDERS TO CLUB.New York, March 29.\u2014 Inspector Schmittberger, who had charge of the handling of the crowds in Union square before and after the bomb explosion, said to-night: \u2018lI gave no clubbing orders to any of my men.and [ am positive none of my mounted men drew their clubs while scatterin~ the crowd.That is a story made out of whole cloth.While T believe something ought to be done, and that quickly, to curb the anarchistic tendencies of some of these people, T do not and never did advocate the wholesale clubbing of innocent bystanders to effect the dispersal of crowds that collect.\u2019 THE VICTIMS.The body of Ignatz Hildebrandt, the only person killed hy the explosion, was ven to his wife to-day and taken to Oregon, N.J.for burial Ms.Tlilde- brandt said that her husband had owned several tailor slions heve, but more recently he had been interested in a gro- very store in Roseville.N.J.Tie had been in this country thirty vears, was a Republican, and so far as she knew, always voted that ticket.The police did not make much progress to-day with Silverstem, who, although able to talk, would not discuss his act.He appeared indifferent to his fate, and when aske1 if he would sce his two sisters, who had called at the hospital, replied only: \u2018T dont want to see them, and could not if T wanted to.They can see me if they wish: Ile exchanged a few words with one of the girls.From the sisters, Selia.«ved 21.and Sarah, aged 18, the police learned that Silverstein is but 19 vears of age.The hrother and sisters came to the United States, they said, five years ago, adopting their mother's maiden name.Silverstein got employment with a tailor, but had been in naor health for years.The elder girl added: READ SOCTAT.- ISTH PAPERS, \u2018My brother was sickl(?and was al- wavs complaining of his station in life.He read socialistic papers and studied a great deal.When he was not too ill.he visited the public libraries and read hooks, He also attended a night school for a time in Brooklyn.At one time he was interested in chemistry, and often had several hooks in his possession in his room.He often complained of pains in his head.T would be glad now if mv brother would die.He has al ways been ill, and has been a great worry for us.\u2019 The seven prisoners held for further examination deseribed themselves as fol Jews: Ramuel Rifkin, printer: Mike Dol- lineer furrier; Walter Uppit.machinist; Max Grauth.machinisi: Meyer Semil, haker: Seer Greenburg, tailor; George Rohertson.cook.The general committee of the local Socialist party met to-dav and set forth their side of the story.Thev claimed that the meeting was made up of law- abiding persons, and accuse the police of inciting the people to riot.Many =iate- ments were issued bv individuals, all de- bloring the act of violence.and all taking the police to account.MIINE MANAGER BLOWN UP \u201curide, Col, March 28-\u2014Eluding | the night guard stationed at the Smuggler Union mine at Pandora, two mues south of Telluride, and the searchlight which is constantly thrown about the premises durige the night from the high tower of the'mills as a precautionary measure, an unknown person gained access to the residence of General Pulciey i he represents in parliament.Wells, general manager of the Smuggler Union Mining Company, last night, and planted dynamite under his bed, The dynamite exploded by igniting a fuse on the outside of the building about two! o'clock this morning, when the intended ! victim was asleep.He was hurled against | the ceiling and alighted under a mass of débris, but escaped with a few, scratches and bruises and impaired heaving.Al though a systematic search has heen made by Sheriff Fitzpatrick and deputies, aided by hundreds of citizens, no clue has been found to the perpetrators of the deed.One man, who is charged with having said that Wells should be kiiled.is being held on suspicion.In the same building Arthur L.Collins, predecessor of (General Wells as general manager, was assassinated six years ago while plaving a game of cards with a number of friends.The man who killed Collins fired a heavy load of buckshot | through a winglew into bis back.Steve!
