' I Fine OU Stone Church Near St. Andrew's Locks Was Built About Six* ty.Two Yean Ago By the Selkirk Pioneers—Rev. John West Was Its First Minister and Some Are Alive Who Remember Its First Service, "I hear the tread of pioneers, Uf nations yet to be. The first low wueh of waves, where S.i.ji shall lull a human aea." We will soon be celebrating iu Canada west the centenary of the landing on the bunks of tho Red River ul the tlrst of tin- Selkirk pioneers, says Our- ahl Wade in The Globe. The portion of what is known as the Province ol Manitoba was lirst settled by Lord Selkirk iu IbTH. In I a country where historical records and memorials are all tou scarce, as in tho west, whieh is practically de- void of any marks ol appreciation of those who did su much for Hub couutry, it is to b,> hoped that the coming "Selkirk Cetiteuii.ul" will bu marked by a luitubla memorial to the founder j ul the "Ited Rlvoi Colony." He was ' a pioneer Imperialist and one of the I lirst advocates of ICmpirc-buildiug by : colonization. It was iu the autumn of HI- when this kind-hearted Scotchman's first party ol Highlanders reached "The lied" via Hudson liny and I.nke Winnipeg. The '"Sett lenient" llici eased slowiy by ua'ural growth, by dls< clung d and retiring employes ol the Hudson Hay ami Northwest Cotnpau- i ies, Uie Coming ever ol a lew cun- I grants irom toe Mates, and the Buttling nb ut (hum oi hall -breeds, I "Wherever British lutlucucq has genu thruUfflloul tiie wm hi, Ihe Christian faith of thu British people has followed," wrote Uryce, uud tne lirst clergyman to urri\u iu Rupert's Land was in connection with ttie Selkirk colony. To-day beautifully sltuuted i on the banks of the Red River above lower Fort Carry, near St. Andrew's Locks, and many miles below "Old Fort Garry" (Winnipeg), stands the oldest churcli in Canada west. It Is thu link between tho past ami the ' present. Thi* solid stone house or worship still holds great interest [or thu visitors to tins historical spot, especially to those who are descend- 1 ants of the settlers. Beside the many interesting "tablets" erected to the memory of "Tha Pioneers ol Canada West" which one sees on the walls uf St. Andrews, not ine least interesting is a beautiiul memorial Window over the altar to the memory ol the "pioneer builder of churches in the west," the Rev, Archdeacon Cochrane, placed there some thirty-two years ago. St. Andrews Parish, which is so rich iu history, has one historical advantage over Furl Garry in that it .-*,;, retains its original name and identity, while Fort Cany and other places are lost in name to the people of to-day. The old Church building und rectory are iu a good state of preservation, und the latter is occupied by toe present rector and his family. Mr. Bryce, writing to the Kev. John Went, who was the first minister ol St. Andrews, **">*- "H» arrived In ihe Red River Settlement in October, 1820. and at once began his labors by holding services In Fort Carry, and in ltfiia he erected the lirst Protestant place of worship on the Red River, and when In- r-turned to England two year* afterwards the second minister of St. Andrews, the Rev. William Cochrane, and his wife arrived at the Settlement, and to Mr. Cochrane, afterwards created Archdeacon, is given deservedly much of the creJit of laying the foundation of the church uu the Red River. He not unly laid the foundation of the Protestuut Church in , Canada west, but he also supervised , the erection of this pioneer church sixty-one years ago. It was not until Ml thai the lirst Protesunt Bishop. Dr. Mountain of Montreal, visited th.s then remote spot. In ltH'J the Diocese of Rupert'e Land was established, and thu Rev. David Anderson consecrated its first bishop. To this church belonged, besides the settler*, nearly all thc BngU*h**peaking halt-breed population of the clony, as well as a large number of the Hudson Bay Co.'* Jl* 1 fleers. During Uie sixty-two years of its existence the pans], has hud, besides the Revs. Mr. West aud Archdeacon Cochrane, Ihe following incumbents lu order named: Rev. Dr. J. P. Gardiner, Archdeacon Hunter, Rishup Young, Bishop Qrltdale, Rev. a. 1.. Fortin, Rev. Mr. Barber, Rev. Canon J. W. Mathesoii, Rural Dean Johnson, Rev. Mr. King, Rev. 0. E. Brownlce and Rev. A.

Chancellor Burwash Is Young at Sevonly-Two Ye rs of Age. A splendid typo (of Canadian, a great Christian geii letunii, a.,d a churchman w^ ;<*, lull a-nuu will never j be measured is Dr. Nathaniel Bur- wash, president arid d i/iiicclior of Victoria CollegS. who cdebrctod bis aev- enty-secoud birthday recently. Meu- ll.n the name of Chaicelkr Burwash to anyone who has et er cume iu cou- tact with him ia an;/ way, and you will heur froui his lips 01 see iu his eyes a tribute of resp-ct to this great aud guud man. This can be suid ol tew mortals, either in Toronto or elsewhere, but it ia a simple fact. Une day a member of the staff of Ihls journal was chatting with u dealer iu rare bouks. The name ol Dr. llurwa-h was brought up as a man whu owned a fine library. The dealer's attitude at once became one of actual affection, and he took Irom his pocket a letter which the chancellor nad written to lum years ago, aud which he alwti.-s carries. The Jitter— just a brlol note—was oue of those manifestations of courtesy so easily, yet so rarely, given in this hurrying agu. lt was to thank the dealer for ■; securing a certain book, una a delight- 1 lul note it waa. Moat ot us, with our trivial duties, aro "too busy" for such courtesies—not so, however, men who have big duties and big minds like Chancellor Burwash. 'Ihe doing ol such little tilings, which did uul nave to be done, wus, by the way, one ol | tlm characteristics ol Gold win Smith which made him deeply respected eveu : hy those iu disagreement witli lu* views. Homo newspaper workers havu occasion to call up many prominent men j by telephone irom time to time, aud 1 in this way tbey havu experiences i which cause them to modify their judgment of certain characters, al- lhoiie,h well enough known perhaps in 1 a mure personal sense. Call up Chun- 1 eel lor Burwush any tune and ask his ; view uu nny subject, aud you wlH not ; only get a view worth while, hut promptly and wilh distinguished courtesy-even io an unk'nown. bothersome person. An.l the chancellor's voice is so young and fresh you would not believe him to be past thc "alloted 1 span." i The courtesy of Dr. Burwash helps , you to understand how, in all cou- diets id theological opinion, he calm- ' ly holds his way and yet escapes tin- ] kindly criticism. Other men may he a* absolutely sincere and yet mil- understood. But the chancellor can ; no more lie misunderstood than the shining sun. The influence which , his character ami attitude have had I on Victoria students would alone murk him as a towering figure, but ids influence has gone Out Tor many years in many directions. Chancellor Burwash was horn in : Argenteufl, Qu>bec, of United Empire Loyalist stock. With a broad e-iuca \ tion on a broad foundation of virtuous, 1 virile manhood, he entered the Methi- dist ministry in Ontario in 1SG0. lid became a professor et Victoria sn years luter, and was appointed preif* dent and chancellor iu isn He is the author of a number of theolngic-tl works, also of "The Life and Times of Egerton Ryerson" and "Development of the University of Toronto as a provincial institution/' As preacher. , teacher, writer, and administrator, he hus shown high ability.

THE SCOTTISH'DRAGOONS. Eastern Townships Regiment Ranks High In Canadian Cavalry Corps. The I3tlt Scottish .Light Dragoons Is u cavalry regiment from the Eastern Townships in tie Prjvince of Quebec. The regimett, although organized only in 1903, has attained such a degree of efficiency that it ia to-day looked upon as one of the best cavalry regiments in Canada. Last year it won the Turner Efficiency Shield for being the best 'regiment ia the Province of Quebec, 'and at the camp which just closed at tVarnham it again won the shield., •* This regiment wh-n organized tn 1903 took the place ol the old 70th Infantry, which previously had been recruited Irom the Eastern Townships, lt consisted at fir-t of five squadrons, "A" being located at Stan- stead, "B" at Knowlton, "C" at Waterloo, "D" nt Stanbridgo East and "I'." at Cowunsville. Two years ago_ when the -Hitli Stanstend Light Horse was organized "A" Squadron was transfererd to the new regiment, and "I," Squadron changed to "A." The regiment was organlted during Lord Duudouald's regime In 1003. The lirst commander ol the regiment was Col. Charles A. Smart, who was succeeded by Col. D. M. Stewart, and he in turn hv the present command er, Col. li. il. Morrill. The present squadron commanders arc: "A," Mai li. 11 Baker, who is senior squtidrun commander and will likely succeed Col. Morrill aa commander of tho regiment; "B," Ma). Miltiinore; "C." Mai. II, Slowart, and "D," MaJ, Bus- sell. The change from au infantry to a cavalry regiment has proved very popular among tbe young men of the Eastern Townships. There is now no di tli unity about securing enough uieu to keep up tho strength tif tin.1 cavalry regiment, whereas there had been considerable dill.culty iu obtaining sufficient to nil tin* ranks of the infantry. Tito fact that the regiment has won the Turner Efficiency Shield two years iu succession is in itself a very good guarantee ol its standing among the other regiments in tin- province. Christening Midland. At the extreme southeast, end of j Georgian Hay is tne inlet marked on the Bayfield chart "Mutidy's Bay," now better known a* "Midland Bay," It is the exact shape of a horseshoe, aud the waters are deep enough, even at thu shore, to permit the old sailing ships to lock their spars in the branches ol the trees. The buy is without ruck or shoal, and is by long odds the best harbor on fresh water. Thirty-five years ago the laud along the waters ol the buy was an unbroken wilderness. To the south, about half a mile from the water, there were oue or two farms, the merest clearances In the woods, which had been cut out by one or two settlers who were half farmer and half trapper. The location ia uu ideal one for a town. There is enough r.at laud close to the water for business situs and factories, while as you go further back the land rises in terraces so that the residents can have an uniuterupted' view* ol a magnificent sheet of water beautiiul iu calm or storm.

Un Augu.it Id, lit!?, u writ dated ut Chester wus is- sued, commanding the Mayor of London to proclaim in thut city thut the "gold penny which the king hud caused to be made should be Immediately current there and elsewhere witnln the realm of England, and all, transactions uf buying and selling, at, the rate of twenty pennies a sterling1 (i.e. twenty silver pennies) lor every gold one." Ibe time, however, wus by no ui'-ana favorable for the issue of the pieces of a denomination so much higher than hud previously been known. Accordingly, the city of London petitioned against these coins, and the King issued a proclamation that no one should be obliged to take them. The coins, nevertheless continued t.. be current, uml in 1205 their value wus raised from twenty to twenty-four pence; probably equivalent in pur- cnusing power to two pounds sterling of to-day. It is unlikely that any great uuin b.-r ol these coins ever was struck, lt H probable that, by reason of tlieir high value, they would soon be melted down, for they were ol pure gold witiiout alloy of any kind.
