the writer could not be \u2018Dreyfus.The witness wished fo enter into the question of the Robigi éhell, but, on General Deloye dbjecting to a statement on the eubjeot-in\u2018\u2019open court, Major Hartmann .asked to be allowed to give it behind closed doors, saying \u2018it would only take him a few minutes to call attention to the point he had in mind.The president of the court, Col.Jouaust, decided to hear this part of the witness's testimony, : Beil camera at the end a shell, for.which Gen.nt om called oe Major Hartmann to-day affirmed tha}'it was quite\u2018 possible \u2018that patio à about\u2019 & certain shell should\u2019 captain a liar.- leaked out.jn ation the subjects mentioned Jo the bon dean, to which the major zetorted thak if any artillery.officer bad been ques tioned by Dreyfus he would.alréady have come forward to say so as a mattet of strict duty.General Deloye, questioned, by M.La bori, and M.Demange, gaid the inventor of the, Robin shell, told him that Dreyfus never aakéd him for particulars about bis shell, except on a minor point.The General added that he came as a technical witness to show Dreyfus could be guilty, adding that it was mot his business to say whether he believed him innocent or guilty: = He.could \u2018only say that Dreyfus\u2019s conténtion that it was impossible for hin to know \u2018certain matters referred to in the \u2018bordereau was untrue.M.Labori asked General Deloye if he knew er the documents which could have beer betrayed by.the traitor, especially by the writer of.the bordereau, were important, whereupon the General turned to- counsel' and excitedly cried : \u2018Don\u2019t ask me; don't ask me.\u2019 These excisgnations créated a sensation in court, which was doubled when General Deloye added that there was sufficient in the bordereau to establish that hem go \u201chave on i the traitor knew the importance of the documents he was.iving.up.The witness ; When, an read the ereau I was, disndyed he és while \u2018if - he -mieant the \u201c1207.short, He employed a.wrong expression.General M r .hers mounted the stage and remarked, that the writer of the bordereau might very well employ the term hydraulic brake, because that was the term used by the Germans for sach brakes.\u2018This ended the deposition of Major Hartmann, who certainly was a very valuable witness for the defence, although the effect: of his testimony was sumewhat weakened by General Deloye's theatrical statement in.reply to M.la-} bori.The next witness, M.Havet, a.\u2018member of the institute; took up the bordereau.from a grammatical point -of view, declaring it to be his conviction, after studying closely the styles of Dreyfus and Esterhazy, that the latter wrote it.The witness entered into -an interesting avalysis of \u2018the phraseology of the bor- dereou, pointing but that certain phrases in it were met within Esterhazy\u2019s letters but never in those .of Dreyfus.The government commissary, Major Carriere, who is always blundering, uak- of the Jest session of the fourth week of >} and that Col.arte b ä déjo ein i ed a gave particulars.ot yea long known, Major Carriere sat down checkmated.| The letters exchanged between Col.the colonel \u2018wanted a thorough investiga- Picquart and General Gonge, at the time | tion into the case, were\u2019 then read, and | M.Labori pointed out to General Gonze |.that these letters, never \u2018aHuded to the a fh mer president of the Senate, A published them \u2018j 2 a book, « entitled \u201cPon- tius Pilate) ying M.Labori, \u2018General Gonze a ee that Desi \u2018had been condemned, and it.var not his duty to.go back to his casei: Col.Picquart \u2018followed.Thé latter being called, said that he gave Gêneral Gonze\u2019s letters to \u2018his lawyer, when he realized what was the object of the abominable intrigues, and when he received in Tunis a threatening letter, from the late Lieut.-Col.Henry, sent \u2018with the assent of Generals Gonze and De Boisdeffre.\u2018Col.Picquart added that he was not responsible for the subsequent publication of the letters.In reply, General Gonze said be had not given his consent to Henry's letter, chinations against him.everywhere.] him the secret dossier.Therefore, be 1 fus was innocent.Colonel Picquart\u2019s correspondence while the Colonel wes in Tunis, and Gonze ad- \u2018mitted thet one letter was:.opened erd Sd he Hague, terday, expressed confidence in.a victory of justice in the Dreyfus case.The society telegraphed Maitre Labo:i an assurance i Imiration and sympathy and expressed joy at his.recove bony his wound.v ancouver, B.C., Sept.2.\u2014Aecording to \u2018an Bemonton.despatch, friends of M.Labori and Dreyfus are said to have paid mysterious wisits to the Edmonton country and selected land for a \u2018family from France\u2019 One of them, named M.Henrick, made Investments to the amount of $35,000 THE ANCIENT CAPITAL.Quebec, Sept.2.\u2014A dinner was tendered the Governor-General in the officers\u2019 quarters at the Citadel on Thursday evening.Young Kerouac, shot at Chateau Bigot, is etill alive in the Hotel Dieu, but is very weak, Lieut.Swift, 8th Royal Rifles, will represent this city un next year's Bisley team.Out of.the total arreste last month by  stone etorehouse belonging to the Harbor Commissioners;

MAN'S INHUMANITY TO MAN.The consideration, and even sympathy, with which the operations of trades unions are regarded by no small portion of the general public are naturally due to the belief that these organizations are primarily actuated by the desire to obtain and administer equitable treatment towards their individual members ; that they are the champions of the weak : stomage | ta) Tapa ponts > i : \u201c| them: \u2018nothing, \u2018there 16 always \u20ac a consid: Es stiffer examination, based on a mors\u2019 \u2018 promoters of legislation calculated to gt \u201c ('ééfeguard workmen of ali classes in their daily occupations.Tt must be confessed that this natural view is subjected now and again.to rather rude shocks, which \u2018tend to the conclusion that \u2018combines,\u2019 whether .of operatives or of capitalists, are sadly tainted with the same inherent : vices of selfishness and opportunism.It would, for.example, appear safe to as : \u2018sume that mine-owners and trade unions - \u2018officials, however much at variance they .| might be in other respects, would cor dially \u2018unite for the protection of property and of human life below ground.[But 4 recent case reported from Chesterfield, England, would seem to lead to a contrary eonclusion.A miner having pleaded guilty to hav- 5 ing broken the mining regulations by .| uaramming -an_explosive from a drilled : hole, a most perilous practioé, the court [with \u201chin that the merits of the case would be met if the delinquent paid a ;| sovereign and costs.Very properly, the \u2018| court thought quite otherwise, and con- | victed the accused, and imposed the pen- { alty directed by law.But the surprising - thing is that the pit-owner should have discussed the question of pressing | for a conviction.with an organization not : responsible \u2018in the slightest -degree for \"| the safe working of the mine.His disregard of the safeguarding of his pro- | perty is only \u2018equalled by the readiness with.which both parties were prepared to sanction a course fraught with danger to the workmen and to the public at large.Such a discussion was certainly a most questionable proceeding in a case where the law of the land had been flagrantly violated, at imminent risk of human life.The suspension of the Amalgamated Society of Engineers, the most important trade union in Great Britain, from the Trade Union Congress, just reported, is a still more recent illustration of some peculiar methods of these organizations.A few years ago a deaf mute workman began an apprenticeship .as a mmiith, but without.[completing it, and Was, em Ployed.in \u20ac ; | breadwinner.Two.exdithé: ganda at | the works on \u2018the Tyne docks, struck \u2018in order to protest against bis employment as a smith when a fire was provided for him, and he undertook to finish the term.of his apprenticeship.These, were discharged, sf + flembers of 1the Am ted Society of rs wereffemtployed in their places.After dome \u2018delay the case was taken un by the other trades unions, but the Amalgamated Society declined to discipline the engineers, who were employed on the ground, which # still maintains, that \u2018the so-called trike was absolutely without justification.\u201d In.consequence of this stand the parliamentary committee of the Trades Union Congress has suspended the Amalgamted Society from representation for two years, but the matter has still to be passed upon by the congress as a whole, Meanwhile, the Amalgamated Society shows no disposition to: flinch from the position it has assumed, one, it may be added, which commends itself as being based on principles alike of common sense and common humanity.eee THE DEMOCRATIC PLANKS.The Ohio Democrats have sounded the keynote of the party for e coming\u2019 .} dential A ditional planks, namely, anti.imperialism, opposition to foreign entangling: alliances and resistance to capitalistic ' combira- tions.With reference to the Chicago platform it will be noticed that the bi- metallie ratio is now placed at sixteen to seven, a considerable change.from sixteen to one.This is a conceksion to actual facts, and is a vast improvement upon the preposterous defiance of fact contained in\u2019 their former attitude.But such a revolutionary change of view ought surely to offer a convincing proof of the impossibility of fixing a permanent ratio: between two metals of diversely fluctuating value.This silver plank is the worst feature in the platform, and is sure to prove a weakness at least in the easterh and north-eastern \u2018states.The anti-bnperialist plank is much sounder, and may possibly develop great strength .and popularity.Its framers assume that the farmers generally and the workingmen are unfriendly to expansion.who take anti-expansion ground have all the distinctive and deeply in- \u2018that, whatever may be its purpose, capi- | 1 ersined traditions.of the American people on their side.It is difficult for a man who: believes with his whole beart that Washington was right to reconcile wrong.Ai people whose school: training is largely msde up of abuse of Great her own colonies will not be able to see clearly how mueh better the act 18 when the same thing is done with tu people who never were part and parcel \u2018of the would-be controlling power.spectacle of United States troops slaughtering a foreign people fighting for their liberty on their own soil in a distant quarter of the globe, is discordant with gvery idea of right cherished by the Americans as a people.On the other hand, the vikingistill lives in the Anglo- Saxon of to-day, and love of ruling others is in him as ell as hatred of being (oil as: he how.to » subject his \u2018theories.to p can be brought à an carly and brilliant finish or not.In any case, the administration can count a very long way on the natural desire of a strong nation to use power when it has it, and also on the conviction which never deserts the Anglo- Saxon that his race is born to rule other peoples for their good.The plank against foreign alliances is primarily directed against Great Britain.It is an appeal to the enmity of the Irish and the Germans against Anglo-Saxon- ism.Its effectiveness will nevertHeless depend largely on how far school-book traditions still rule the native population, or how far these shall be found to have given way to the sense of larger national life _which the people have learned to associate with an imperial career and Anglo-Saxon brotherhood.As a matter of fact, there is no alliance even threatened, and there is a.weakness \u2018in running a campaign simply against a sentiment.The declaration against capitalistic combination will be strong or weak ac cording as the election falls on good times or bad.= Every one had come to recognize such combinations ag a tendemey of our.day.People have begun to believe 0.the chespening Re are realizing, coo, that many enterprises\u2019 which bripé wealth to whole peoples sre impossi fe without gigantic combina- tionge\u201d Examples of this are to be seen it the enormous ventures of capital BOW being organized in Nova Scotia to exploit.industries which have proved a failure i in weaker hands, vehttrés which : are \u2018being looked forward to by the people of the province to check the outflow of their best population and to bring about a powerful return current.Something the same may be said of the very daring risks that Mr.Reid is taking in Newfoundland, a region that without his unexampled enterprise would have remained derelict, and which may bring nothing but loss to him ; but in him it has at least the hope of redemption.While, therefore jealousy of the concentration of power will remain in full force, and theories as to how to overcome that evil will be of growing interest, the keennoss of the feeling against capitalistic combinations will depend very much on whether the people find themselves well or ill off.tates .LAKE LEVELS.\"1 8t.Chair with \u2018Lake Erie, and thus provide & short,cut for vessels navigating those waters, has given alarm to some interested parties on the United States side of the border.\u2018 It is easy to see, if the project should be carried out, how it would adversely affect those interested in maintaining the existing route.An appeal is to be made to Washington, it is said, with the object of getting the federal government to interfere in the matter, the only ground for such inter ference mentioned being that the canal would have an effect on the level of the lakes.The same alarm was manifested when the Canadien Sault Ste.Marie canal was projected, and the Washington Government was then called upon\u2018 to interfere, as now suggested.\u2019 Nothing was done, however.\u2018There was.a] similar alarm in Canada, and with more reason, when the Chicage people undertook to open a ship canal which would allow Lake Michigan to flow into the Miræssippi, and thus steal an indefinita | amount of water fram the-St.Lawrence this with a belief that Aguinaldo is Britain for seeking to force her rule upon The.ruled by others.No people know &0 | for growing celery for the New {Hon of importance.#0 te lessening ste Gost of living.Thies rf {of the St.Lawrence river, \u2018sassination o system, a much worse thing than simply making a new channel for water that is repaid to the St.Lawrence.There is always reason for serious consideration before \u2018lakes are interfered with, as in nothing have there been more notable changes on the earth\u2019s garface within \u2018the history of man than in the lowering of lake surfaces.All that ig necessary is to cut the outlet a little deeper and out flows the lake.Avy lowering of the Niagara ledge would involve a lowering of Lake Erie, which that lake can ill afford.An interesting and to us important, if not a very large, illustration of this process is found in the disappearance of the old lake that wn; used by the first voyageura between Montreal and Lachine by which means they were able to surmount the Lachine rapids with but a trifling portage.By a slight deepening of the St.Pierre river this lake has become what we call the swamp, a poor place for anything except York ht well prove: an\u2018 intertiational © Fortunately, however, each country has sufficient at risk in the matier to enable the other to sleep soundly.Canada could easily afford to leave the maintenance of the water level when threatened by Chicago to the good people of Cleveland and Buffalo and Oswego and Ogdenshurg.In like manner the United States can safely leave the maintenance of the lake levels as far as we are concerned to our own lake front interests.Sarnia and God- erich and Collingwood and Owen Sound are not going to allow Lake Huron to be let out, even if there were the remot: est chance of an almost stil! water canal having any such gigantic effect.\u2018The teal trouble with the parties complaining is that they fear the proposed canal will benefit Canada at their expense.that they have reason.There are few \u2018waters in the world so thronged with \u2018commerce as the Detroit river, through which more tonnage passes than through the Suez canal.If any serious amount of this tonnage were deflected the effect would no doubt be serious, but it would not constitute a ground of quarrel.\u2019 This question of the lake levels and the possible consequences of changes and the means of \u2018Protection gaint them \u2018bas pees mano (dieushéd.Dads jhe variations in the\u2019 levels of the \u2018great lakes, but \u2018on the whole thé\u2019 How of water has been pretty well\u2019 maintained This is owing to the immensity of the area drained.Canada is even more \u2018concerned than the United States in pre- \u2018| serving the level of the lakes: oni aceount \"The lake waters ave indeed almost entirely contributed from Canadian territory, for the | rivers\u201d are comparatively few and\u2019 small emptying\u2019 \u2018into the lakés on their southern side.\u2018What is most likely to affect the water-flow is the deforesting of our northern territory.An illustration | of what this can do is to be geen in northern California and southern Oregon.Mr, William H.- Mills, of San Francisco,\u2019 who recently exdinincd those regions, says it cannot be long before the Sacramente river will be a small stream.Where forests once stood and streams were plentiful there is not now even a spring.The hills are dried up, and when the rain falls it runs off the slopes as it does off the roof of a Huse.Streams rieé, run like torrents, and.dry up as soon as the rain is over.B : ielts La au dr \u2018es 4 10 sien wh where the land is not to: oth ol, agriculture, only timber of medhantible size should be cit.Ne tri WHAT NEXT ?.All intelligerice recstied.from Santo Domingo goes.to confiini the\u2019 belief that the tou, which;

it is.further stated, will not permit him to.proeced to Santo Domingo until instructions to that effect have been recaived from Havana.No one acquainted with the.history -of the dealings of the United States with filibusterers and insurgent agents in the past.is likely to mistake the action of General Wood as being actuated by à desire to avoid contributing to the difficulties of a friendly power.There has never been much hesitancy or delicacy displayed by the great republic in such matters.A naval officer narrowly es- eaped disgrace at the hands of the Sens | ate for having assisted in gtopping the piratical career of Walker, the Central American filibusterer, and for years an organized agency of insurgents, the Cuban Junta, was afforded not only harbor- age but.countenanee in the principal city | of the union.This mnexpected move, , then, may be : pot own io.nog, ober zpeson thant 7 To pb lergely incrensed.the.territory and the difficulties of the United States.The public debt of the Dominican Republic is chiefly held in New York, and the American syndicate which has entire control of the state finances, managing the custom houses.and the government rail- Ways,\" is veing all its influenca to bring | about an intervention .which would at least result in an: American protectorate.+ It has, been recalled that General Grant, | while President, placed before the Senate a treaty with the government of Santo Domingo acoepting annexation to the United States.The Senate only rejected the treaty by a tie vote.At that time the United States had not adopted the principle of having dependencies which were not to be integral -parts of À the republic.Things have developed since then, and the way to a political relationship is now less difficult.Whether it is any more desirable is another thing.Still, the temptation will-be great, should the offer come, for the United States to add the second-Pearl of the Antilles to its already embarrassing wealth of terri- , tory.Of course, the annexation of the \u201c Dominican Republic necessarily implies : a similar fate in the near.future for the un Sf.Hayth, a consummation w % dred.years constituted itself .a public, nuisance and a blot on the chart of ha man progréss._ Lo.2 rar A TORONTO SUICIDE.Toronto, Sept.2.\u2014~Shortly before midnight a young girl, name unknown, aged about twepty years, -and dark cons- .plexion, wearing a badge With the words, \u2018Fraternity, protection and aid;

that a\u2019 chimney-swedp will place under immediate arrest and drag \u2018before the Reeorder any house who objects to have.his or her chi ; swept at the precise moment that the worthy \u2018sweep\u2019 chooses to present himself, be it dinmer time, or any other time, which mey prove exceedingly inconvenient to the aforesaid housekeeper.As a Montrealer, allow me to cite an instance.Last Thanksgiving day, after \u2018we came from church, and before we had time to get the dinmer cleared away, Mr.Sweep put in an appearance, and, notwithstanding objections being raised on account of its being the day set apart for universal thanksgiving, insisted.on performing his duty (?).I had séarcely time to get from the front door to the kitchen when a suffocating \u2018cloud of soot met me, covering, not only: my whole person;

reducing one man\u2019s pay twenty-five cents a day, and forcing one man to resume work before one o'clock.Mr.McGibbon\u2019s reply, forwarded with the Mayor\u2019s letter, included an emphatic denial of being under the influence of liguor on the park, or otherwise; he said he had never insulted or ill-treated the employees, or used viol to or threatened visitors on the par He had occasionally to reprove the.men on the way in which they were working, and also to remonstrabe with: visitors to the park upon their actions and conduct;

hauling manure frou the barn to the dump, and conveying the horse feed from the city to the park.He had never received any pay for the work done by this mare.He looked after all the employees tio see that they did their work, and gave orders what to do whenever it was necessary.He was \u2018always to be found on the park, except when required to visit the city OIL - the park business.He reduced: one man\u2019s pay: twenty-five cents on one day because, \u201cwhile he was engaged watering \u2018the roads: it commenced to rain, ren dering this work unnecessary for the balance of the day.He never forced the men to resume \u2018their work before their.dinner hour had expired;

tat: \u201cthat Port Arthur was healthy and \u2018Fort William the.ro verse \u201cwas a theory, of common acceptation not 80 \u2018mémy years ago; \u201cand it \u2018hes Te- quired actonl erpdrionce to.to.proya a tothe: ed in 1897-8, and is of unique design, the first and omly ome of its kind in Canada.Its most «listinetive features are the separation of the storage department from the machinery for weighing and bandling the grain, and ite fireproof nature, which renders insumnce unnecessary.It is constructed with twenty-four cylindrical \u2018steel storage tanks, sixty fect high, eight .ht \u2018feet in diameter;

Elevator B, 1,300,000 bushels; Elevator C, 1,230,009 bushels; and the new steel tank elevator, 1,500, Pot Ba 000 bushels.The last of these was erect- ro ve ei name to the * Elevator City.\u2019 equal to eight trains.of twenty-five care -each.- Duringrush- periods, three hun- -dréd cars a day mre mot unusual.Let a \u2018Montrealer, consider this, that : while in 2897 there was \u2018shipped from Montreal about ten million pushels of whéat, there was shipped from Fort William\u2019 17,600, 000 bushels, and he will get, a firmer grasp of the importance of Fort\u201d Wil- Ham ae à méprise port And here-ia | another fly it\" the\" dian\u2019s ointment;-f Nil- for of this.17, 000,000, bushels: 12,928,001 ippéd- for export: \u2018bys WAY} fafa, \u201chie bulk -of it \u2018in- American bottoms, \u2018while only two.million bushels |\u201d found its way to the seaboard by way of Montreal._ Yes, it is an undeniable fact that Port{\u2019 Arthur went to sleep when the C.P.-R.removed its busicess to Fort William; or, rather, it was \u2018put to sleep,\u2019 to use a pugilistic expression, by that tremendous blow.Fort William was only imcorpor- eted a town in 1892 (although its history dates as far back at 1669, when the fam- | ous explorer, D.G.DuLhut, built a trading post on the banks of the Kaministi- quia) but wince then it has grown rapidly, and its population now numbers about 4,500, against 3,000 for Port Arthur.But now Port \u2018Arthur, even if it |, be not yet fully awake, is at least yawning, and showing some signs of an awakening.The Rainy River railway, now building, is one of its great hopes, for at Port Arthur it will have its eastern em- trepot, and it is hoped that it will rival the C.I\u2019.R.as a grain artier; will bring in trade of all kinds, because of the mining, forest and agricultural wealth along its line of route, and will make Port Arthur the great city she yet hopes to be.Nor do Port Arthur peo- | ferring grain\u2019 Bono cars to ig Souk tol vessels.- The shipping capacity is forty Besides its- huge : the ele- L 2 y be ones hegre v [I Yes the + Bly.étape vo ss k : fy * 38 ;

the promic world lay far away, dcwn below and eastward; mountains were all around, the scene of a hundred romances, and every one could have silver for the finding.Romance! the very air was charged with it, as this one little story will prove: The East End mine, you were told, was about a mile away from you; this mine was discovered by a Chippewa Indian, who received the magnificent remuneration of a thousand dollars.Proceeding to lay out this money to the best advantage, according to his notion, he first bought a red shawl for bis squaw, then he bought a piano for Timeelf, then he got rid of the balance in an equally wise: fashion, and went Hs that extending\u2019 from Silver Islet \u2018and \u2018Thunder Cape westward to White- | Bish Lake, including the Beaver, Badger, Porcupine, Rabbit and East and West Silver Mountain mines.From the Lake of the Woods to Hastings county, in south-eastern Ontario, silver is found in various parts of the great mineral belt ;

passengers, however, do not greatly complain.Lastly, we have the new compræsed air motor cars, of which great things are expected.The most obvious criticisia is that cylinders have a reputation for danger.America has made the greatest progress towards the .substitution of machinery for horse-power.Philadelphia, it is eid, will soon be\u2019 a horseless city Electricity is: being.used: for: the freight and pleasure traffic, and jn the future it is expected that epormons sums of jmoney.will be'.saved.\u2018We shall see! i The more I know of the cars the more convinced I become that the roads must be made for the motor cars, and not the cars for the roads.Moet -delicate me- | chanism could be used were wood-paved city streets the only surface to be cowered by the self-moving machines.Besides, the banishment of horses from the city would greatly lessan the tax ard discase and death-rate.More than 50 percent of the cost of street cleaning is due to the use of horses.In other words, if there were no equine quadru- } .t a Slane trae + .- « - Thue Loon om, are They offered to shove behind, and the proposal might have been advantage- 'ously accepted.Despite the increasing tremors which gently shook her, that motor car refused to advance, \u2018Will one of you gentlemen kindly get down and give the wheel a start,\u2019 suggested the motorman, \u201clhat\u2019s all she wants.I did what was required, and away she went, leaving me standing in the middle of the group of smail boys.\u2018Run, guv'nor,\u2019 was their advice.And I ran, : \u20181 knew she'd get om, as she got off, = QE / A Ua a A HEAVY LOAD FOR said the motorman oracularly when I was once more by his side.\u201cYes, and you'd have heen better off if you'd stayed on and let th: boyp give the wheel a turn,\u2019 added one of my fel- low-pateengers.I did not argue on the point ; I am :not & stickler for rucidity.Yet that [motor car did get on when she had i gone off, and I was better off as soon-ss 1 was on., It is easy to understand wby the motor car belongs to the feminine gender.No, I am not going.to make any cheap jokes at the expense of the fair sex.The motor car is always feminine, because she is the ship of the road.\u201c 5 + ) : FUMIE Kam = hh ;

Sir, \u2014 Your very timely remarks about the assessors and the machinery tax seem to fit in with what the Municipal Reform Association is about to do next Wednesday evening, at the mass meeting on Chaboillez squire, when resolutions condemning said tax will be submitted to the pubiic.To say that the assessors deserve sympathy is putting it very mildly; they have been given an utterly im- possibie task to pertorm,\u2018 and how can the manufacturers assist them, being appealed to to name what machinery is, or Figo not taxable.The assessors don\u2019t know and if these.gentlemen, being, presuma- | biy, according to their office, expert valu- avors, don\u2019t know what to tax how can the \u2018ordinary citizen be \"expected ° to { know?The whole thing hue degenetated | into @ \u2018tarte; alow Has: beer eribadieq | Vib our chaser: \u2018which: to \u2018êne- ingly car.interpret, and justly enforce] For instance, I know a imanufactatér who put into \u2018his factory shafting at-a cost of three hundred dollars.It is insured for that amount.A short time ago this same manufacturer purchased at an auction sale a eimilar quantity of shafting for forty dollars.Now, if this msn should value his shafting for assessment purposes at the latter figure of forty col- lare, and a fire took place, and he claimed the fuil amount of three hundred dollar, the original cost of putting in the shafting, what would the insurance people say?There would probably be an action for perjury.The above is not an isolated case; it is the.same with nearly all.manufacturers.\u201d It is impossible to determine what justly is the assessable value of machinery.Machinery valuable to-day may be valueless.to-morrow; who is to say in this age of .Therefore it would be hardly fair\u2019 to assess anything at a higher figure than what it would bring at a forced sale.If some means could be adopted to: satiafy the | insurance companies, and we only knew what was intended to be assessed.But no one seems to know of cares to take the responsibility of instructing - -the assessors (who apparently are disagreed) how to proceed.Until now, aseording to the chertér, the law is; à dead letter for this year through not: having béen.enforced: in time, for clause 375 says: \u2018The asses- scrs shall, every year, between the first of May and the first-of September, make for each ward of the city a valuation and aéeesement roll.of.ail immovable: proper- J ty aituated:irr sel ward.\"s Now, air, this not having been done in time diminishes \u2018the opportunity of the asseseed to have recourse to.the courts, if the assessors\u2019 valuation is questioned, therefore where machinery has not already been assessed this year, the law is null and void.To take another view of this tax; what its enforcement means \u201cto Montreal is simply this, that where manufacturers cannot move out of the city they wil, in most oases, have to take the tax out of the wages of the workers, or close down their establishments.I know of some large factories in this city which for nearly five years never made a cent of profit, but kept their places going so long as they did not lose anything.If these same proprietors had had to pay taxes upon their plant and machinery, they would have shut down _their factories.Who would then have suffered?The workers, the butchers, the bakers, the landlords and the whole dommunity.Such will be the eventual result of this worse than insane tax if it is enforced.Fortunately the electors of Montreal will soon have some say in this question, as the aldermanic elections are approaching.There may yet be time for the City Council to see ita error and adopt some other method How: meh, \u201cPitty cents, at dhe drug store,\u201d said the girl in the of raising the neccssarv revenue to keep murder- |, = the city à in proper condition.It the mat |: ter is in the hands of the aldermen they never had « better opportunity to prove \u2018their usefulness, if there is any usefulness about them.: W.D.Montreal, Aug.31, 1809.DO WORKINGMEN GO TO CHURCH?(To the Editor of the \u2018Witness.y Sir, \u2014It is somewhat a pity to.see] existed in the controversy re the.Church and workingmen.How unfavorably it compares with a series of letters that: recently appeared .in another Montreal newspaper between a Roman Catholic and an Anglican clergyman on the validity of their respective orders! How noticeable was the vein of courtesy, tol: erance and utter absence of ridicule and 4 the sneer that marked those letters.I will ask permission, if it will not take \u2018the space frem more weighty matter, to offer one or two observations without presuming to rise to the ethic of \u2018Rational,\u2019 of to be sufficiently versed in logic to cross swords with \u2018Working- mah.\u2019 ' First, to suggest that when à.churchman- like Canon Farrar makes the statement that ninety-seven percent of the workingmen of England are outside \u2018the Church, he invariably means outside the Church of England, ignoring the hundreds of sects and brotherhoods without her pale who meet several times each 4 week for public worship and the study of the gospel.Many of these dissent\u2019 ing chapels are wholly composed of work-: ingmen.Is it not anomalous that in a population of 2,000 there should be seven \u2018 churches, and yet ninety-seven percent.of the.working classes do not go near or support them ?I went a few years ago to Port Madoc, in Wales, as a common seaman, a place where two-thirds of the male population are hard- working\u2019 men.Yet the streets of that town were! deserted during church time on Sunday.It was just the same in fishing towns or the coast of Scotland, whose people are: mostly toilers of the sea or wharf laborers, and where you find nearly every- mother\u2019s son at church on Sunday.might be urged that these places are not in England, but then like conditions} bring about like results.It cannot be.argued that Scotch workingmen are sat- | isfied with everything in the preaching way, for never was there a harder lot.of critics of preachers than Scotch works, ingmen.\u2018Workingman\u2019 believes that: ninety-seven percent of his: fellows absent themselves from church.I object: to this statement from my own observation; which may be as good as his.A much larger percentage does go to; church than he has any knowledge of, and the reason given by those who de; not go is only in a very few: \u201ccases bi .Mers be would put into their.mouths;, ré often\u201d workingmen frankly.admis;

let them state and verify their complaints, and the immediate order -for the stopping of this evil must follow and without delay.Look at that case recently brought by some ladies against a sugar bag house at the east end for annoying them with more smell of the works than was agreeable to them.À fine of some twenty dollars or imprisonment was the prompt judgment.Jf any man is annoyed by the \u2018howling of a neighbor\u2019s dog the courts would at once order the stopping of the nuisaice if asked to do so.There are no- two ways about this, the only differ- \u201cenne-is in the degree, viz., a small circle\u2019 \u2018annoyed by a -dog\u2019s \u2018howling end in the other case a whole community outraged by the scratching and clanging and banging of some hundreds of cars perambulating the whole city with their machinery out of order.Surely we may hope that some public- spirited party will pity the thousands who suffer, as well as Jor right and justice, and \u2018ake this action.The cost could be but a few dollars and apart from this\u2014the only hope of moving this great company\u2014who will otherwise remain the cruel masters of the situation.DAILY SUFFERER.\u2014 NOISY CARS.(To the Editor of the \u2018Witness.\") Sir, \u2014Some time ago I noticed a letter published in yoar oclumne relative to the unnecessary noise made by the electric cars.About noon to-day myself and a friend had an opportumity of hearing this abominable noise.It was utterly impossible for either of us to hold conversation.I have noticed the noise referred to as made by different cars, but the car in question (No.395) was without doubt the worst in my experiencé.We consider that something should be done to remedy this nuisance which is unbearable in day time, but when it comes to be kept up to a late hour, even midnight, it is time that the proper authorities should take the matter in hand.The Street Railway Company, possibly, overlook the \u2018fast that we business men \"have important matters to discuss even while on- the cars, but, \u2018as-tlready men- |$ \u2018tioned; it -was \u2018nhrposeible -to-attempt .to Ÿ tale\u201d én- \u2018any.subject.\u2018We fully agree.\u2018with the remsarks \u2018made by the writer of the letter you published some time ago, and trust that in the near future the | company will consider the interests of yeas.ihe public in general, especially when it has been proved that the trouble can be easily remedied.Other cities can run their cams without noise, or at least with very little.PROTESTER.\" Montreal, Sept.1, 1899.\u2019 THE CHIMNEY SWEEPS.(To the Editor of the \u2018Witness.\u2019) Sir, \u2014In your issue of yesterday (Aug.29) there is an item under the heading \u2018Chimney sweeps sworn,\u2019 to the effect that a new class of special constables was created yesterday, when three chimney sweeps were sworn before Mr.Recorder Weir as special constables, and that in future any one who refuses to have his or her chimney swept, as required by the city by-law, may be arrested on the spot and taken before the Recorder by the sweep, the bydaw providing that each chimney shall ba swept three times in every twelve months.I do not know the actual terms of the bydaw, but from th\u20ac report in your paper it would.appear as though the chimney sweeps might present themselves at any citizen\u2019s house at any time of the day\u2014say, between seven and seven\u2014and insist upon sweeping their chimneys, and in default haul the citizen before the Recorder - by .themselves, if.they were |.strong .enough, and, if not,.with the aid] of the police.thet a man\u2019s house.is his castle, but if .It is generally supposed the above is a correct view of, the purport of the item, such an idea must.disappear.I can call to mind a case where the sweeps presented.thomselves.at a most awkward hour, either when the range was in full.blast or friends had been invited to dinner, and when they insisted upon performing the dutizs to which they stated they had been delegated.1t can easily be seen that such a by- law\u2014if correctly interpreted as above\u2014 would leave am almost unlimited opportunity for bullying or blackmail, as the sweeps, in case of spite against any individual, might choose any hour suitable to themselves, or otherwise make it most disagreeable to the person whose chimney they chose to apply to have swept.The affair in such case would be a perfect outrage, and I am sure could.never have been contemplated by the civil authorities.It is, of course, correct that chimneys ghould be kept properly swept, but I.would suggest that it be ordered that 8 notice be sent, say five days previously, to the person whose chimneys.are presumed to require sweeping, stating that in default of advice to the con- Point St.Charles, Aug.2, 160.trary, the \u2018sweeps would present.them- _ADVERTISEMENTS.Weak and Nervous THE CONDITION OF A YOUNG LADY OF WELLAND, Subject to Frequent Headaches, was Pale and Emaciated and Grew so Ill She Could Barely Walk.(From thé \u2018Tribune,\u2019 Welland, Ont.) Miss Hattie Archer, of Welland, an estimable young lady, whose acquaintance extends among a large number of citizens of the town, has the following to say regarding the virtues of Dr.Wil- hams\u2019 Pink Pills for Pale le:\u2014\u201c] the.fall of 1897, I was taken very ill.1 Was nervous, weak and debilitated.At this time the least exertion caused great fatigue.My a ppetite was poor and I was attacked with frequent sick headaches.I gradually grew worse until I was so weak I could barely walk through the house.I was very pale and emaciated and finally ' became entirely incapacitated.Various medicines were resorted to but gave no relief.Later I was treated by two of the best physicians of the town.One said my blood was poor and watery.1 followed his advice for some time, but did not improve.Then the second doctor was called, and he said he could help me;

can take my food with a delightful relish; and again feel cheerful, healthy and strong,, I would further say that the change is wholly due to Dr.Williams\u2019 Pink Pills.I hope that.my testimony may prove beneticial to other girls similarly afflicted.The experience of years has proved that there is absolutely no disease due to a vitiated condition of the blood or shattered nerves, that Dr.Williams\u2019 Pink Pills will not promptly cure, and those who are suffering from such troubles would avoid much misery and save money by promptly resorting to this treatment, Get the genuine Pink Pills every time and do \u2018mot be persuaded to take an imitation or some other remedy from a dealer, who for the sake of extra profit to himself, may say is \u2018just as good.\u201d - - Dr.Williams\u2019 Pink Pilla cure when other medicines;

that we have to be put un der their control and that they are to reake: us have our chimneys swept three times a year, whether convenient or not, or otherwise be fined forty dollars or two months in jail.In a country like this, where wood and hard coal only are used \u201cfor \"fuel, this is nothing short of outrageous, and to top all, to be left in the-hands of uly | me, 88 8 anything bul déntlemanly in their By, havior, WAH\u201d \u201canlimited uit ÿ to ar rest us in our own homes, tends fo meke\u2019 us feel that we shall\u201d need to ay.Houge- keeping in some more civilized \u201ccity, where we will not be subjected, to a.house cleaning\u2019 five times a year, \u2018three times for ourselves.and twice for our \u2018neighbors\u2019 chimney sweeping.Of all things under the sun we housekeepers know what soot.is to clean up, and\u2019ils penetrating effect.Furthermore, more tkan a third of us in this city use gas for six months in the year, and_ only in the winter use coal for heating.Are we to be eubjected to his butrageous treatment also?If the housekeepers in Montreal have any spirit left in them they will rise im a body against this obnoxious by-law forced on \u2018us, as it means five times the work and the degeneration of paint and furniture by the clouds of soot which will settle in spite of all precautions.The proper time to sweep a chimney is in the fall, once every year, or if the chimney is hard pushed, in fail and spring, at the usual house cleaning tinge.: this if a matter of great importance to small\u2019 families I will take it as a grest kindness if you will publish this 3 in yous widely read paper.HOUSEKEEPER.Montreal, Aug: 31, 1899.ma T=.es Om It is said that the homes of the people tell their state and character, end if so, I pity the teacher who goes as a where the schoolhouse is a picture of forlorn negligence, bleak and treeless, and I know it does not represent the character of the children, for as a rule they early learn to adorn and beautify according to their surroundings.But it shows in a sad eommentary the want of taste in any community when the penny wise and pound-foglish policy keeps the schoolhouse devoid of any improvement for thirty or forty years.\u2018Why, vhe old school-house looks just the same,\u2019 says the bearded man who left it as a of this yesterday when a crowd of merry fabure.rit tts hours in these surroundings than in the newly-built houses where the parents try to have modern improvements, and plant trees and flowers.One school that had some progressive children, and is in a treeless condition, was the subject cfa unanimous petition, from the scholars to the trustées, in spring, asking to be allowed to plant shrubs and trees in the limited yard.But they were put aside without ceremony by thoee in power, with the remark that they had not time to attend, to it, and yet the children had offered to do all the work.Such a \u2018condition adds to the school life an unpleasant feature for beauty loving children, and fails to educate those who are not.In the garden the other day I heard the Funkia grandiflora compared to the Yily of the valley.Ib did not seem inappropriate for an autumn lily, but it has an individuality of its own that ro other flower possesses.It is a fine old- fashioned type of lily and its pure white fragrant blossoms, during August \u2018and Septémber are refreshing fo the eyes\u2019 among the gayer autwmn flowers.Tt should certainly be in every garden, and only needs to be known to \u2018be appre- 4 ;

grandfather.Captain Brown was a Revolutionary soldier, who died a prisoner in a barn in New York.John | Brown felt a peculiar sentiment for the his grave, and that it bear his own inscription beneath that of his honored grandfather's.The stone also bears the inscription of his sons, Frederick, who was killed at Ossawatomie, and Oliver and Watson, both killed at \u2018Harper's Ferry.The body of Frederick was never recovered.Watson's skeleton was used as an anatomical specimen in a Southern hospital until bought by a physician, who \u2018twenty years later offered to restore it to his friends.Mrs.John Irown and John Brown, jr., brought.it to North Elba, and after twenty \u2018years of wander ing as a \u201cspecimen, Watson received Christian burial, and Les in the grave beside that

the old homestead.After the dark days the surviving sons and daughters of John Brown moved west and settled in Ohio and California.Sarah alone remained with her mother on the farm until 1863, when, in order to join her family in California, Mrs.Brown sold the farm of over 244 acres for $800.The new holder was later obliged to mortgage the property, and ultimately, in 1870, to sell under threat of foreclosure.tains .at the time, heard of the fate of the farm, and in her patriotic zeal aroused the interest of her friends and induced them to buy the property, which they did for $2,000.To give the farm to the State of New York to be a perpetual park was Kate Field\u2019s cherished plan, and this she accomplished only shortly before her death.In a letter she wrote: \u2018I want the farm to be held as sacred ground as proof that even in the nineteenth century there is such a thing as poetic justice.I want it to be the centre of the great national park of the Adirondacks.The transfer was imade in January, 1896, but the official presentation and acceptance took- \u2018place on July 24, 1896, when a monument in commemoration of their gift was unveiled and a flag raised by the commissioners.The monument is a fine piece of granite bearing the names of the donors, and stands just outside of the enclosure contmining the boulder and graves.On the boulder in deeply furrowed letters and figures is the Inscription, \u2018John Brown, 1859.\u201d This cutting was.made in 1866 -at \u2018the request of.loyal: friends.and.ad- to ever, are given free access-to all parts of the

grave stone.Mr.Lawrence, the caretaker, is, however, nearly always present, and he personally conducts the visitor \u2018and manipulates the padlocks.He said to your representative, \u201cWe have got to do it, or there would not be a shrub or a-grave stone left inside of a week.\u2019 One room of the house is set apart for a museum, containing some of the John Brown relics.There is his gun and bayonet, the chair he sat in, and the table at which he \u2018wrote his correspondence, his cabinet and several «other articles of personal use.Here also is a register in which visitors are requested to sign their names.None of the descendants of John Brown are living in North.Elba, but there are here several relatives of Mrs.Brown\u2014sisters and cousins.Tn 1874 Mrs.Brown received from the French republic a magnificent.gold medal which bears upon its face a portrait of John Brown.On the reverse side is the following inscription : \u2018To the memory of John Brown, judicially murdered at Charlestown, \u201cVirginia, ~en the second of of \u2018his sons-and comrades who, with him, \u2018became the victims of their devotion to \u2018the cause of negro elancipation.\u2019 Forty years: ago, John Brown, : accom: ily, \u2018left \u201cthe town of \u2018North Elba, Fesex county, N.Y., for Harper's Feary, Virginia.With \"him were his sons, Oliver and Watson, and.his nephews, William and Dauphin A.Thompson.Later the little party was augmented till it numbered twenty-two daring men.John Brown had formed the idea of effecting slave liberation by arming the slaves and inciting them to rise against their oppressors.As the first step in his scheme he designed to seize the arsenal at Har- pers Ferry, where an immense stock of arms were kept.On the night of Oct.16, 1859, he and his companions overpowered the small guard and obtained pessession of the arsenal.During the next morning he made prisoners of most of the chief men of the town; but there was no rising of slaves as had been expected.The townsmen, too, recovered from their astonishment, at the audacity of the act, and a bold attack was made on the arsenal.Fresh as sailants poured in from the country round, and on the morning of Oct.18, the arsenal was recaptured, and Brown, severely wounded, was \u2018taken prisoner.On Oct.27, John Brown was tried, at Charleston, for treason and murder, and was found, guilty.The sentence passed upon him, death by hanging, was -car- ried into execution on Dec.2.His fate A VO WAT TI pT Te stone, and requested that it be put at | Kate Field, who was in the moun-4 _ be se a EE du

Ferry, ten were killed; seven wounded, and five escaped.The names of those who were killed were Watson Brown, Oliver Brown, William Thompson, Dauphin A.Thompson, W.H.Leeman, John H.Kagi, Stewart Taylor, Jeremiah Anderson, Dangerfield Newby, and Lewis S.Leary.Newby and Leary were colored men.Three of the bodies were taken to the Winchester Medical College, and used for anatomical purposes.\u2018These were Watson Brown, Kagi, and Anderson.= Ph remains of Watson \u2018were; recovered ; buried beside the.great.rock «in Nigrth Elba, in 1882.It is not known what became of the bodies of Kagi and jAn- : derson, after their \u2018removal from.: per\u2019s Ferry.In regard to bodies, Dr.Thomas \u201cPeatheretonhaigl of Virginia, gives the folowing infogma- °F tion to the-public: \"Fhe seven remaiting- bodies were collected by one Jiimes Marshall, and by him buried in \u2018store the: Shenandoah, about half a mile above Harper's Ferry.My discovery of the | bodies

men present cn \u201cwhose heads the State of Virginia had placed a price of $5,000 each.He spoke feelingly of the Thompsons who had gone out with John Brown in support of the great cause.Two of the

\u201cAmong those who knew John Brown personally and was present at the burial of the abolitionist was Mr.Byron Brewster, ome of the.leading and respected citizens of Lake Placid.Your representative called on Mr.Brewster.\u2018 \u201cYes,\u201d he said, \u201cI knew John Brown very well, although at the time I was only a lad.My sister married Oliver Brown, one of the sons, and afterwards I went to live with the Brown family on the North Elba farm, doing chores and making myself generally useful.There was quite a houseful, to be sure, for Brown had a large family of his own, and they \u2018were poor, but I never knew anything but happiness and contentment to exist in\" the household.Their poverty \u2018was not due to carelessness or indifference, for they were steady, hard workers, but to the conditions under which they had to make a\u2019 living.The country was new.and sparsely settled, the land was rough and the-climate rigorous.That is why the negroes did mot get \u2018along well there; the climate was not- suitable for them, and they either died or left for other parts.\u2018John Brown himself was a pleasant, kind man, but he wes not the sort of man that -one

the ceremony over remember him saying that just ae if he \u2018had said it only yesterday, and I can now almost see the expression on his face -as he\u2019 said: it.\u2018\u201cI do not know that he spoke much of his great scheme for the liberation of the slaves.\u2018If he did, he did not sayvenÿthing in my \u2018hearing, I know that he left\u2019 North Elba for the South with his sons and

knew that at that time their loved ones were making a desperate - stroke.Some days \u2018elapsed before any word of the conflict reached us.You know all about the fight at Harper\u2019s Ferry, John
