The Bait Hunting Ground on Earth—Lacks Mut Two Members of Ilia Oreat Game family, Buffalo and Wild I'i(reoii«- How Wolves Increased-A Costly Experiment—Wolf as a Hero At the recent convention of thc North American Fish and Game Protective Association at Ottawa, Colonel Turner, the United States Consul at thc capital, declared that the Dominion is the greatest country in the world for game, This is a statement which may surprise non- sporting citizens, but which, nevertheless, is quite true. World's Best Bunting Ground. Americans come over here b.v thousands at different seasons of the year for a few days' sport with gun and rod. New Brunswick boasts the most aristocratic fishing clubs in the world, the membership fee of one (it which amounts to several thousand dollars. Most of the lakes in all the eastern provinces swarm with bass, said to be the gamest lish in the world, with the exception of the salmon trout. Quail is found in the Western peninsula, and partridge is common in nearly every county in the country. Thc ranj-e of the red deer and the black boar is* equally wide, while moose, thanks to a long, close season, elk and cariboo ure reported plentiful at. the outposts of civilisation. With Manitoba und the Territories the home of the prairie chicken, geese, ducks, and sandhill crane, with gri/.zly and silver lip, mountain sheep, and tho grey wolf in the ltockies and the foothills, with sea salmon in British Columbia, bo- sides otlcr, mink, beaver, and other animals valued for their pelts alone, Canada may assuredly claim to be considered the happy . hunting grounds of this world. Kult'.ilo suit I'lgmm*. The great game family lacks two members—the lordly buiialo and the wild pigeon. Forty years ago the buffalo roamed the Western prairies by tho tens of thousands, while thc flights of blue rocks literally darkened the sun. To-day there is not a specimen of either in tlie country outside of a zoo—except, as to buffalo, the herd at Banff. They have been wiped from the face of the earth. No word but "crime" can be upplied to the extermination of the buffalo by White "sportsmen." At the same time, though nothing can compensate for their loss, the wholesale destruction of one great species has served as the most powerful argument for the preservation of others. This is the precedent, cited when a close season is de-ired for any bird or beast. "Some years ugo it was found imperative to more, rigorously protect the heer in Canada. The shooting of moose was prohibited altogether for a time, and the open season for cariboo, elk, and red deer was limited to a very few dnys. The desired end was achieved and the deer increased in a most gratifying manner. Bow Wolves Increased. Wolves also multiplied in the sumo proportion, according to tlio laws of nature; and now they are more numerous than for many years.

Moreover, under the party line system, there will be a more faithful support given to the government by its members than 1ms been afforded hitherto. Thanksgiving The government of our Dominion has appointed Oct. 3 5th iis a day for public thanksgiving to Coil. We cannot but think that such ;i public expression of gratitude to The Supreme is natural, aud that it would be unnatural lo refrain from acknowledging our dependence upon Him. Such a public acknowledgement sis is now called for shows that the religious instincts of the people are not dormant. Ol course, now, as in every nge since the gospel was lirst pieached, there Imve been , those who have harped on the decay of Christianity. In every age men have declared that the inner substance lias vanished; that we have now only the empty profession. But Christendom still grows and spreads, and men and women still live heroic lives, and, if need be, as in the recent Chinese uprisings, die heroic deaths, for the sake of lilm who lived and died for us. We, personally, are thankful for this and for the spirit that moves our nation to give prstise to God. We breathe His air, we gaze ou the beauty with whicli He has adorned this worltl, and partake of other blessings that come from Him. If we want to live independently of Him, and to be littlegods ourselves, we ought to 'create a world for ourselves. Let us not live in God's world, ami yet ignore Him. Subscribe for The Prospectob.
