near the Tecumseh House, which shook the business portion of the city for three hundred yards around.The cause is supposed to have been the ignition of about twenty pounds of gunpowder which waa kept in the fourth story of the building for filling smal] cans when required by cus- n smaller quantities than a keg.From what can be learned, it is feared that the explosion was occasioned by emplo = of

burned off to about the anklo; his eyes were burned badly and his clothing was gone in many places.He and Shaw were jatef to the Goneral Hospital.The uilding was owned by the firm.LOSSES AND

OTTAWA, Feb.19.\u2014Mr.Lister, of West Lambton, who resumed the discussion on the Canadian Pacific Railway debates, is evidently a born fighter, with a penchact for hard knocks and vehement language.He indulged ia this characteristio last night to such an extent in referring to the Hon.J.J.C.Abbott that the speaker had to interfere and force him to withdraw his words.The var it arose was very simple.He incidentally referred to the Pacific scandal, a restatement of which he said he would spare the house, when the Conservatives set up a chorus of ** go on.\u201d Whereupon Mr, Lister, who pro ly ex this, p out a boo fran bis desk and began narratine this lece of ancient fis tory, in which, it will be remembered, the Hon.J.J.C.Abbott figured prominent as it was to him that the famous $10,000 telegram was sent by Sir John A.Maodonald.* And that man,\u201d said Mr.Lister, \u201cis now sitt in thls House, & paid solicitor of the > ian Pacific Railway, in which capacity he receives, I believe, a salary of $2,000 per year.\u201d This was followed by a couple of sentences redundant with epifhots more ex- ressive than polite, and it was then that he Speaker interfered and put an end to the fun.Mr.Lister went on afterwards, in more moderate language, to state that these resolutions were the production of the member for Argenteuil.Mr.Abbott, being an old politician, stood the attack, quite unconcernedly, and went on reading his paper from beginning to end.Others came in for some hard raps, among them Mr.Thomas White, wbo nad said, in his speech, that the Northwesterners wanted to be spoon-fed by the Government.Mr.Lister thought that as the pap holtte bad been at Mr.White's mouth pretty often, the less he talked of: gpoon-feeding the better it would look.Mr.esson, who has a bad habit of interjecting comments in the speeches of the opposition members, was also brought to book when he manifested that amiable characteristic.Mr.Lister told him that it was an eminently right thing for him to be very loyal to the Conservative party since he had two near relatives feeding at the public crib and was desirous also of securing the portfolio of Minister of Agriculture.He was algo particularly severe upon Mr, Curran, reading aloud some very uncomplimentary remarks upon his speech, which a in an independent newspaper in Toronto.e rest of Mr.Lister's speech, which was a clever and able one, was a sledge Kammer attack upon the Canadian Pacific Railway and the Conservative party.To him, the Canadian Pacific way bas po redeeming features whatever, but is a huge, grasping, cruel, unrelenting monopoly, who Intend to make the people of Canada construct every inch of the road, after which the corporation will apply the screws to the public, and hold on to the monopolistic clauses as long as an outraged country will stand it.DR.ORTON'S BPERCH.a success as a parliamentary orator.He has not an ounce of vigor In him, and his 8 hes pre invariably eo tame and insipid that wher he gets up to speak they galleries ana floor of the House loses a g many of their inmates.Those members who still remained in the House didn\u2019t pay the slightest attention to the rivers of prosaic platitudes whioh he was pouring, and there was a enera] feeling of relief when he got froug .His speech was devoted more to the castigation of the Grand Trunk rallway than to a defence of the Govern- ent\u2019s railway policy.He asserts that the lobe was the pald organ of the G.T.R., and that the Liberals, in following its lead on this question, are only becoming the tools of.a great and grasping railway corporation.MALCOLM OC.CAMPRON.He was followed by Malcolm C.Cameron, who seetned to have dropped bis vigorous tonca and solid sesertions and gone inta = [the bumorous Une of argument, In | whieh he did pot shine to any appreciable extent.He referred to Sir John's cabinet of curiusities and mourned over the disseusions and heart burnings between Mr.Chapleau and Sir Hector Langevin, together with the falling trom grace of La Minerve and Le Monde.This kind of badinage was all very well and would have done no harm to anybody, but Sir Charles Tupperzwas so unwise as to attempt to badger the speaker, by interrupting him to wake explanations.\u201d The combative member from Huron dropped his banteriug style at once, and abused the Government {n his old slashing and puzna- cious manner, making things lively for the space of an hour or ol 80.o kept hammering away w great vigor until after ten o'clock, when he sat down after moving an amendment to the resolutions to the effect that no further aid should pe granted uptil there had been a rigid investigation into the manner in which the money granted by the Governmeut had been expended and into the various stock operations of the Company.\u2019 * SCRAP BOOK CHARLIE.\u201d The amendment was then put, but before a division could take place, Mr.Rykert, be:- ter known as \u2018\u2018 Scrap-book Charlie,\u201d had got upon his feet and had begun reading out the opinions of the leading Reformers five or more years ago.Scrap book after scrap book was Hished out fiom the spacious recesses of his desk, and extract after extract was read, until, according to his view of the case, the Liberal party had pursued & most outrageous, inconsistent course for years.First, be read an editoriai which appeared in the (lobe eleven years agu about the construction of the raiiway; then some of Mr.Blake's statements in the following years, to the effect that the Canadian Pacific Railway would cost nearly $200,000,000, and so on; for iwo or three hours.the same $M proceeding went on, as if any light could be thrown on the present situation by guoting some old and almost forgotten opinion of Mr.Blake's.Mr.Rykert 18 a clever man, and a pleasing speaker, but he bas certainly missed his destiny, for he was evident ly meant for an antiquarian or an archæologiat.When & question comes up in the House, and the Relormers offer a serious opposition to it, the question with Mr.Rykert is not \u2018 Are the objections well founded 7 but 1t is, \u201cStands the Liberal party where it did ten years ago on this subject 7\u201d 1f they do not, in Mr.Rykert's eyes they have committed a terrible crime, and he straightway proceeds to pillory them with their past utterances.\u2018 When he got through, Mr.Charlton moved the adjournment of the debate, but Sir John Macdonald had come to the conclusion that it was about time to bring the debate to a close, and in consequence he arose and said that the question had been fuily discussed, and expressed a desired to bring the debate to a close to-day and go into committee of the whole.As the motion to adjourn was lost, Mr.Armstrong spoke for about three guarters of an hour.House finally adjourned at 1.30.THE FRENCH MEMBERS AND THE GOVERNMENT.A great deal of interest and excitement is felt here with regard tothe action of the French Conservative members, who have suddenly become the arbiters of {be destinies of a nation, for, they bave tbe power nai resent of practically dic what e the future course of Government.One evidence of the power they exercise in their new position is seen in the manner in which the Globe, which for years bas been applying almost all the opprobrious epithets in its vocabulary to the Æ# , bas suddenly become not only civil but respectful.The same thing is going on here.We do not hear any lamentations that the country is being ruled by French Canadians just now, the C position, in general, being desirous of mollifying them, although the old resentment has broken out in one or two speeches.And the Bleus, evidently intoxicated with their power, interd to make the most of it.Their organs in the Province of Quebec have suddenly become independent in tone, and when Mr.Girouard, the other night, complained of their course, he only angered the Secretary of Btate, who has been after him with a sharp stick ever since.It is said that Mr.Chapleau sent a note to Mr.Girouard, in which, it is said, the latter was informed that he was a \u2014\u2014 * fool.\u201d This, as a straw which shows the way the wind is blowing, 1s valuable as being strong presumptive evidence thaw Mr.Chapleau in-; spired, or at least did not object toy tha publication of the offensive articles.Just t the French members propose & remains to be seen, and as not definite known, all sorta of rumors and canards are fliving about.One, which has been floa around for about six weeks, is that the French Conservatives, with Sir Hector Langevin, intend going over to Mr.Blake in a body.This looks, on the face of it, as a most improbable story, but it must be remembered that Mr.Blake tried the same trick about twelve years ago, when he broke up the then Ontario government by coaxing over E.B.Wood, the Provincial urer, into the Opposition, of which he was a prominent member.There is certainly a good deal of talk in the lobbies of the possibility of at least a portion of the French supporters of Sir Jobn crossing over to the Opposition.NOTES.Mr.Casgrain will to-morrow move for copies of the commission appointing the Governor-General of Canada, her with copies of all oaths which he is required to e.He will also ask for copies ot the commission appoin the several Lieuten- ant-Governors of the Provines of Quebec, to wit: Sir Narcisse J.Belleau, Rene Edouard Caron, Luc Letellier de Bt.Just, and His Honor Theodore Robitaille; copies of the oath and oaths required b w, before assumi the duties of office ; copies of such instructions accompanying the respective commissions.The Roger Amero case is coming up in Parliament.This man, who belongs to Digby, N.S, was arrested thére a year ago for the alleged murder of a woman in one of the suburbs of Boston, Mass.He was tri extradited, and was finally acquitted a sho time ago.There was a good deal of discon- | tent caused in Nova Scotia over the action of the Dominion Government in the extradition of Amero, and to-morrow Mr.Wood- worth + will ask for coples ps all correspondence ng © eu .The members of the Provinofal Cabinet of Quebec, who have been here for some days asking fur better terms, have gone home, not in the most satisfied mood, as it is sald that Sir John ve them plenty of promises, but little else.Conse- uently much dissatistaction exists among the French Conservative members, who declare that they want something more gob stantial than mere assertions that the demands will be acceded to in the future.Special Notice.The Royal ell RS Swe Enos dina Bo an sion, 380 and Bie.8 Not 15 hat 7.We thought that we had announced it distinctly enough in THe STAR of the 11th that

Could it be that after all the pain, the bitter disappointment of the past, this coveted bliss was to be bers?\u201cNorry! Norry!\u201d more loudly this time, called the voice of Aunt Hetty, still in the doorway, \u201cwhere on earth Is the child?\u2019 \u201cLet me go, let me go!\u201d Norine cried, in terror; \u201cshe will be here directly.\u201d \u201cYou will meet me to-morrow night, my love, my bride.\u201d \u201cYen \u2014yes\u2014yes! Only lot me go.\u201d He beld ber in one long embrace, then she was free.Retreating into the shadow of the dense trees, he watched her glide out into the moonlit path, and up to the gate.He heard her ascend the steps, and then Aunt Hetty\u2019s voice came to him again.\u2018 ness gracious, child, where have you been?Do you want te get your death out in your bare head, and the dew falling like rain?\u201d He could not catcn Norine\u2019s faint reply.A second more, and again Miss Hester Kent was shrilly to be heard.\u201cLand of hope ! whatever ails you, Norry, you are whiter than the dead.\"Oh, I know how it will ne after to-night, you'll be laid up for a week!\u201d He heard the house door close.Then he was alone with the rustling trees, and bright, countless stars.As he stepped out into the crystal radiance his face shone with exultant delight\u2014alas for Norine, not with happy love.\u201cI Knewit! I knewit!* he said to hitm- selfin his trlumph.\u201cI knew could take her from him at the very church door.Now, Richard Gilbert, whose turn is it at last Who holds the winning trump in the game?You have baffled and foiled and watched me many a time, notably in the case of Lucy West, when it came to old Darcy's ears through you, and he was within a hair's breadth of disinheriting me.Every dog has his day.Yours is over-mine has \u2018come.The wheel has revolved, and Laurence Thorndyke, gambler, trickster, libertine, ne you paint him, is at the top.You have not spared me in the past, my good Gilbert, look to youraelf now, for by all the gods sot spare you!\u201d CHAPTER VIII.BEFORE THE STORM.While Mr.Thorndyke, with his hat pulled low over his brows, walked home the obscure hotel at which be chose to stop, Norine was up in her room alone with her tumultuous heart.She had complained of a headache and gone at unce.The plea was not altogether false.Her brain was whirling, her heart throbbing in a wild tumult half terror, half delirious delight.He bad come back to her\u2014he loved her \u2014she was going to be his _his wife?For over an hour she sat, hiding in the dusk her happy, flushed face in her bands, with only this one thought pulsing through all her being\u2014she was to be his e By and by she grew calm and able to think.No tnought of going to bed or doing anything so commonplace as sleep occurred 5 ber.She wrap, herself in a sbawl, geat- ed herself by the window, and so for hours and hours sat motionless.And so when dawn came, gray and overcast, it still found er.Moan and stars had waned\u2014the night had slipped by like a switt dreem\u2014and fact the.ht of the new day, she could ask he at last what was it she was about ta do?Was love worth all she was about to give up for it\u2014home, triends, a good man's rust, her own soul\u2019s truth and honor?Was Lawrence Thorndyke worth more to ber than all the world beside\u2014more than the peace of her own conscience?Richard Gilbert loved her, honored her, trusted her; she had taken his gifts\u2014ehe had promised to be his wife.This very day dawning yonder over the hills of te would see him here to claim her as his own forever.And was one sight of Lau rence .Thorndyke\u2019s face, une touch of his hand, one + seductive tone of his voice, sufficient to make her honor and truth to the winds, desert T best\u2014her only Iriende : break her plighted husband's heart, make ber memory ashame anda to them all, forever! Oh, what a wretch she was\u2014what a cruel, selfish passion this love she felt must be! ! , The sun rose up between the fieecy clouds, filling the world with jubilant brightness; the sweet scents, of sunrise perfumed the warm air.Norine threw up her window and out, worn and fevered with the night's vigil.That meeting under the trees seemed a long way offnow\u2014it was as if she bad lived years in a few brief hours.Presently there wasa ra at the door, and Aunt Hetty's voios out- je spoke.\u201cAre you up, Norry?Is your headache better, dear?\u201d \u201cMuch better, suntle; I'll be down direct~ ly.\u201cBreakfast will be ready in ten minutes,\u201d said auntie.And Norine got wearily up, and bathed: her face, brushed out her tangled curls, ghripking guiltily from her own pallid face tes \u2018érotchediy haggard I look.\u201d she \u201cHow wre y ga ook,\u201d thought, drearily.\u201cIf he saw me now!\u201d Bhe went down stairs.Aunt Hetty nearl 2 >.ot \u201cbof dro the sweet-smelling plate muffins at sight of her.\u201cYou're whiter than a ghost, child I\" she cried.\u201cYoutold me you were better.\u201d \u201cI am better, auntie.Oh, pray don\u2019t mind my looks.Last night's headache has made me pale.I shall be well as ever after fast.\" r .But breakfast was only a pretence ss far as she was concerned, aud the day wore on, al tho fair young face kept its d, starti- 00 8he could do nothing\u2014could neither read nor sew.She wandered about the house like a restless spirit, only shrinking from that Bluebeard's chamber where all the to meet Mr.Gilbert?eeting hours were hurrying one after the other as hours never bad hurried before.he afternoon sun dropped low\u2014the noises in the fields grew more and more sub wed finery was spread, How was she ° dued-tho cool evening wind swept up from p \u2019 the distant sea.Norine sat in the chair in the garden, under the old apple.prisoner might tbe comine of the exactes ri r the coming of the execution- Le À book Jay idle on her lap; she could not read.She sat there wal wait and schooling herself for the ordeal.Presently, far off in the white road rose up a cloud of dust; there came the ro! d of wheels\u2014sbe caught a glimpse of a cars riage.8he clasped her ds over her heart, and strove to steady herself.At last - = ur ot the dusty cloud carriage | ut of the dusty cloud came a whirling rapidly up to the fate-out oft carriage camo Richard Gilbert, his = face turned towards her.His quick eye } i caught her.She ruse up Lo eet hig, calm., in the very depth of desperation.; Gil=e bert sprang out, and caught both her hands \u201cMy dear, dear girl! my own Noring} how ; lad am to be with you once more!

réquired Information, but it would require some little time to give you the figures.I might tell vou, however, that we had to borrow money to buy the \u2018St.Francis,\u2019 and re-purchase the \u2018Spartan,\u2019 and institute legal proceedings in regard to the insurance.\u201d He added that the Board was riectly willing to give details, but thought t it would nol be to the advantage of the company to make them publie, Mr.Foote congratulated the directors on the resuit of thelr year's work but expressed regret that so many shares should be held by the banks, as, to be a popular institution Ît was necessary that the control of the Company should be maintained by the \u2026 pub, Short congratulatory addresses were also delivered by Ald.Hood and Mr.Peter E.Brown, the latter enquiring whether the Company would maiutain tbe same system of meals on the western service.The chairman replied that the meals would certainly not remain in the hands of the same person and that the company would probably take the matter into their own hands.; The report was adopted and the election of officers was proceeded with and resulted \u2018in the unanimous return of the old Board with

between Mr.(0.H.Massicotte and Alderman Robert since the alleged refusal of the latter to accept the nomination of the former last week, yesterdav culminated in a fracas.The two gentlemen met near the Court House, and after a few words had been exchanged, Alderman Robert was suddenly seen to let fly with his right hand in true ilistic fashion,landing a stiuging biow on BF Massicotte's cheek.A mélde ensued and by means of the vigorous use of & well directed umbrella, the candidate for \u2014otviv honors kept off his opponent Friends subsequently interfered and the combatants were separated.ln conversation with a STAR reporter this morning, Mr.Massicotte said that he was disposed to treat the affair lightly.\u201cI met him,\u201d he remarked, ** and openly expressed my opinion of bls conduct on Friday last while acting as Returning Officer for St.Louls ward.He thereupon assailed me, but, as you plainly see, his sin- le blow had very little effect.A judicious display of the umbrella I carried was sufficient to prevent a repetition of bis little game.THE DRILL SHED AGAIN.All the Walls Now Condemned.The Building Inspector having closely examined thegnid walls of the drill sbed, now in course of reconstruction, has condemned them all as unsafe.and morwoverjhas potitied the Dominion (Government not to use them in reconstruction.They will in consequence be immediately pulled down.Previous to this it was the lotentiou of the contractors to construct the building on these walls and to have the work completed next September but now the structure will not be finished before the following Spring.The insufficient depth of the foundation and the watery nature of the ground have caused the walls to spread and stnce the roof has been pulled own there has been no care given to them at all.The Building Inspector lays the blame upon the Guvernment engineers.Liquor Licenses.To-day was the first for the registration of the names of those applying for licenses to sell

DECISION.How Far Life Insurance Companies Are Liable, A most important judgment for Life Insurance companies was rendered this morning by Hon.Mr, Justice Mathieu.The case was that of J.A.Boyce vs.the Phenix Mutual Life Insurance Company for $3,000.The circumstances are briefly as follows : \u2014 William A.Charlebois insured his life with the Company, some vears ago, for $3,000, and the polley was subsequently transferred to the Plaintiff Boyce.One of the conditions mentivaed in the proposal for insurance and in the policy, was to the effect that if the lusured should become so addicted to the use of intoxicating liquors, as to materially impair his health, the policy would becotue null and void.After Char- lebois\u2019 death, defendants refused to pay the claim flled with them un the ground that deceased had forfeited bis rights to the amount of his insurance by intemperate habits.Hence the present action.In rendering judgment, the Court held that it had beep proved by Charlebois\u2019 medical attendant and by his widow that after taking out the policy on his life he had become addicted to the use of intoxicating liquors to such an extent as to impair the insurance on his life ; that, according to the terms of the contract, it was not necessary that Lbe use of liquors should be proved to be tbe Immediate cause of bis death.and that consequent- IF judgment must go in favor of defendants.Messrs.Greenshields and Co.for plaintiff, Mr.J.G.A.Creighton for defendants.ST.LAWRENCE WARD.Formal Retirement of Mr.Cunningham.Mr.Cunningham to-day addressed the following letter to the City Clerk: - MoNTREAL, 19th Feb., 1884.Chas.Glackmeyer.Esq.City Clerk: \u2014 SrR,\u2014I cannot accept the nomination as candidate for the election of an alderman for the St.Lawrence Ward, and, in consequence, beg to request you will take notice of this my resignation as such candidate, which I make under Bec.3 of the act 46 Vic., cap.28.This effectually disposes of the statement which has been made that Mr.Cunuingham was likely to oppose Mr.Grav.On the contrary he is one of that gentleman's most active supporters.The rumor doubtless emanated from the jobbers who want to divide the anti-mobopoly vote.Protestant Associated Charities.Mr.Wm.Robb, the chairman of the organization committee of the Protestant Associated Charities, has addressed a circular to the chairman of the district conferences which shows that the result of the work of the organization 80 far has been satisfactory.Of 150 cases remitted to the various Dis- triet Conferences for investigation, 90 hava been reported on and 20 of these struck off as undeserving.Of the unreported balance it ix safe to assume that many of the addresses have been false, and that probably the greater number of them would bave swollen the rejected iist.The purpose of the circular appears to be to urge on the officials of the organization the importance of getting into such working order before the end of the Winter disperses their present organizations, and to work during the Summer to become acquainted with the circumstances of all the poor: their means of living; the wages earned by the head of the family during the Summer; the ages and capabilities of the children.and the disposition or opportunitiés which these may have for assisting in the maintenance of their families.Senecal and the Pacific.L'Etendard to-day says, notwithstandin the denials of La Minerve, Le Monde an other Chapleau-Sénécal organs, that in a very short time it will be in a position to prove beyond the shadow of a doubt that the opposition of the organs of la rlique is oh account of the refusal of the Canadian Pacific Lo take up the stock of the North Shore Railway at 964.L'Etan- dard further says that this information has been supplied to it already from different unimpeachable sources, and that a parliamentary committee will be demanded touching the intrigues ot Sénécal, Chapleau & Co.at Ottawa.A
