Wo hnvo also declared that iu our opinion a perfectly n'deci'iinto waler system for lire prol.eel.iun pin-puses cnn i he constructed for31.,0!)0 and that in short the siiui of $100,000 would limply suffice to pay Iheprico asked hy (.liu company for their plant, .$70,- 775 and ' cuttiplutu ��������� both die electric light and water systems to the entire satisfaction of tho 1-alopayors.

In the lirst place an iinnunl sum xtt $7713 would be roquii- ed to he provided for the interest and sinking fund on 25 year debentures. Next comes Iho item of maintenance, which includes repairs, salaries and cuti'iMit expenditure lo run and keep the plant in working order generally. Thu monthly expenditure on salaries by tho company at piesent is $200. including tho wages of lhe electrioian, limvcr house mini and secrelary. lt is obvious that this latter, item, the secretary's salary of ������00 a. month, would be capable of reduction if tlie cily owned i.he plant, as the accounts would of course bo kept iu Ihe oily clerk's ollice and a small addition to the salary of Hint oliicial would doubtless lie ali that, would be required to induce.him to undertake the extra work. There, is also an item of fj>12 a month for oflice rone, wliich would likewise disappear.

Brennau was one of a crowd or whites who taunted Davis, and bullets from the black s revolver lodged m his stomach and chest. He is in a hospital and likely to die. Tho shooting was done at Sixtj- Second street and becoming noised about, the rough "white element began to search for negroes. Before daybreak this meming .las Arnold, colored, while passing Forty-Sixth street, and Amsterdam avenue, was attacked bv a ctowd of whites and shockingly beaten. He was treated at a hospital. Shortly afterwards, about two blocks awav. the gang doled cut similar experience to Alexander Balaii- tinc a colored man who was passing quietly along. Tn neither cases were arrests made. At 0:30 this morning. !l crowd ol whites led by Frank Mcl'yltc, 21 years old wont to a five story tenement on Sixtieth street, occupied by negroes, with the avowed ptunose of cleaning it out. Tliev hail about demolished all the windows and incidentally cracked a lieiitl oi two. when the police r.wooped down on the gang. McPvlvC and another mini were ar- teste'd at 13: SO o'clock. Jos. Doyle, 1S years old. Idled his hat with "sloues and took his stand at Fiftv-Ninth street and Eleventh avenue." Ho succeeded in inflicting scalp wounds on two colored men before a policeman clubbed and arrested him. The above are only a few assaults which came to light by ai rests. The lact is that all day long tho police in the neighborhood mentioned were kept busy dispersing small mobs. The consequence is that the force is unusually on the alert tonight and prepared to cope with asy serious trouble should it break out. . -o BURNHAM HAD A CLOSE CALL HOW THE FAMOUS CANADIAN SCOUT MADE HIS ESCAPE FROM THE BOERS. THE UNKNOWN BOER THOSE STRATHCOHA HORSES The Herald asks pardon from its readers for recurring once more to thc subject of tlie horses purchased by Dr.McEachran for Lord Strathcona's contingent. The matter has already been pretty fully ventilated in these columns and the outside public is by this time fully aware that these norses have been repudiated as not by any means representative of the class -which the Territories cau supply for army purposes. It will be remembered however that the criticisms of this and other Western papers were pooh-poohed by interested parties and their journalistic friends in the east, and there may have been some doubt as to whether our criticisms were justified. There ���������were one or two ranchers tiero at home who had sold horses to Lord Strathcona's agent, -ni'O took upon themselves to deny the truth of tli������ Heraid's statements. Nob idy "ho knew these seu'-lemtn took any stock in their attempted explanations, and the Herald wai.d no' ha.ve t&kcn the trouble to argue with them. Mr. H. S. White, whose name lc lamlliar to the public as the special correspondent cf the Montreal Star ���������with the sejoid Canadian contingent in South Africa has now returu-M to Canada, and has given to the readers of the Star the interesting story of his experiences with the Cam Hai. troops. One of the most remarkable things in connexion with the campaign, In Mr. White's opinion was the astonishing mortality among tho horses. This he attributes to the fact that ther were overworked and unde; fed. Speaking of the Canadian liurbPs sent out with the second contingent, he says they bore up wondeif .illy, and with the Australian and New ���������Zealand-horses-certalnly���������bore^o-1-the. honors of the campaign as far hs ���������horseflesh was concerned. "It was much harder on the Canadian horses," says Mr. White, "for in addition to the long voyage they had their -winter coats to contend with. Moreover, they were perhaps too finely bred for the work they had to do. .1 refer, of course, to the horses so'iog with tho second contingent. The animals selected for the Strathcona Horse were.much inferior. In fact, it __iay not bo generally known that tueso animals, after losing half their number on the passage out, actually landed In Capo Town with glanders. This nece-flsitated the delay of the troops in Capo Town for two or three weeks, aa the Strathcona's when they got there were practically dismounted and had to wait until new mounts could be obtained for them. They were certainly the worst selected horses In South Africa. Very little care or supervision could have been exercised ia their selection." This is the opinion of one who saw them or what was left of them on their arrival in South Africa. He cannot he said to have any Interest. in tho matter one way or the other', and he certainly has Bhown himself a capable critic in other matters con- ��������� nected with the war. In his opinion the horses purchased for Lord Strathcona's contingent were the worst selected in South Africa. Need anything more be said?

Lord Cecil Maimers, writing from Pretoria, gives an interesting description of Burnham's methods as scout and a narrative ,of his adventures. On nearing the Boer lines thc scout's custom is to proceed on foot, sending one, and sometimes.both boys���������if circumstances make it advisable���������back with thc horses. On May 18th when he was sent to cut '.the irailway between Johannesburg and Pretoria, thero being a good deal of material to carry, ho took one boy with him. Successfully passing through tlio enemy's lines he was in hopes of celebrating her majesty's birthday by accomplishing the first break of the lino on that day, but just as his intention seemed to be ou thc point of being carried out, it was foiled by the apearance of a Boer commondo in his immediate neighborhood. There happened' to be some unusually large untbear holes (those fearful traps to tho unwary rider in this country) near where they were, and by hastily doing a little further burrowing on their own account, both being men of small stature and bulk, they were able to go to ground themselves in two of the holes, having previously con- cealeed the bag of explosives, etc. ln a third. Thoy were by no means out of their fix, however, as the commando proceeded to camp though not actually over their retreat, in close proximity to it; and there they were forced to lie for two days and two nights, merely venturing out for a breath of fresher air, and to stretch, their cramped limbs, during the night, and then only for short intervals and with the utmost caution. Eventually (when their endurance was nearly exhausted) the Boers moved away, and on the 26th, 27th and 28th Burn- ham succeeded in cutting the line ln three places at and near Zuurfonteln, about 20 miles south of Pretoria. Eventually, after many other narrow escapes of capture, and enduring privations which would havo ended seriously for anybody less hardy than himself aud his carefully chosen companion they succeeded in. rejoining Lord Roberts' force on the day of their entry into Johannesburg. The importance of immediately destroying, if possible, the Delagoa Bay line to the east of Pretoria was manifest, and Burnham accordingly, on .Tune 1, started to try and accomplish this object He had to return, but on the following day he decided to make another attempt, this time again by himself. Starting late In the afternoon (as usual mounted and with a black boy to take his horse when nearing the Boer lines) he rode eastward.. Ho suddenly found himself in "J"waa after the Modder river fight,that daylong* dream of hell, ��������� When thc deadly bullets whispered "Fate," and tho air was a reek of shell.

He was insensible for a long time..and when he woke ho found that friends and foes had both disappeared. There was a. deserted Kaffir kraal m tlio distance, which in spite of severe suffering, ho managed to reach, and after some hours' rest there, which partiallv restored his energies, he succeeded in getting to the railway, fortunately not far away, and in blowing up a culvert, after which, knowing, of course, that the noise of the explosion, or the discovery, sooner or later inevitable, of the break in thc line, would render his capture, if he stayed there, a certainty, he dragged himself painfully away as far as posible to some hiding-place, where he acmallv lay for two days and nights without food or drink or covering .of any kind save the sack in which the gun-cotton., was contained. At the end of this time he became aware that his strength was raipdly failing, and that unless assistance came from either friend or foe he was done for.

"They do, eh?" inquired Miss Jones, who is 50, unmarried, and naturally prejudiced against bachelors. ��������� "Yes they do." said Smith firmly. "I shanf argue the question," said Miss Jones, "but I'll merely tell you what came under my own eyes the last Lime a fire was announced at this hotel You know the bellboy or the clerk'raises a cry of fire about every so often. I'm an old boarder and consequently t pay no attention to it. Well a few weeks ago, about 1 o clock ln the morning. I heard a terrible yelling of 'fire! fire.' _ ���������.���������,-_���������_i " 'They're at it again,' I thought, and I went to the door and looked out into tho corridor. Mr. Nicely, who rooms at the end of the hall, camo walking down in a night shirt and a silk hat 'No immediate danger. Miss Jones,' ho assured me. 'Plenty of time to dress.' A gentleman in No. li stepped out into the corridor and carefully hung his dress suit on the chandelier, trousers, coat, vest and tie Then he wrapped a blanket around him, seized his gold headed cane and started down stairs. The door opposite mine was open, and I could see the flames shooting up past the window. It was a real fire, although as we knew now, nothing came of it. An old gentleman stood before the glass putting the finishing touches to his toilet. He was all dressed save his necktie, and he couldn't get that in a bow to suit him. Three times he tied it, untied it. and began over again. Then he walked off, and left his pocket book on the stand. The old professeor who is interested in botany stopped me as I started down stairs and asked me if 'this wouldn't be terrible on the Japanese lillies.' " 'Where are they?' I asked. " 'Why, right there in the back end of the garden,' he said pointing a shaking finger at some shrubs he had set out in a vacant lot 75 feet in the rear. These are only a few of my own observations," concluded Miss Jones haughtily, "but they convince me that women do act queer at fires. Of course they do. But what about the men?" bring the whole thing down on my head. That didn't ruffle me, although 1 was five minutes getting untangled; but when 1 began lo dress and lost both collar buttons, broke my suspenders, stepped on a tack, found my shoe strings in a hard knot, dropped the soap ln the slop jar and spilled water on my only clean collar, I began to get a little warm about the jugular. I realized that I.was in for one of those unaccountable streaks of prety bad luck that are liable to transform the most amiable man alive into a dangerous, homicidal lunatic, and I ought to have applied the brakes immediately, but I tried to brazen it through. It was no use, however. Before I had succeeded ln getting dressed I had lost the link out of one of my collar buttons, cracked my eye glasses, sat on my new straw hat, hit my funny bono on the armoir, sprained my back trying to pull out a bureau drawer that was stuck; upset a bottle of Florida water, mislaid my cano and jammed my thumb in the wardrobe door. As I was going down stairs I stepped on the cat's tall, and, of course, she promptly howled and clawed me ln the leg. I tried to kick the brute through the side ot the wall but lost my balance and struck tho landing so hard I nearly jarred the filling out of my upper teeth.

I was on the verge of madness, but I controlled myself somehow, and as soon as i'got to my office, I proceeded com-ly to upset the inkstand, overturn the waste basket, break an incandescent light globe and drop tho dictionary into the grate.

It is a popular belief that death from lightning is caused by internal burns or by rupture of somo vital organ, such as tho heart, the lungs or stomach; but, though severe lesions may sometimes occur, postmortem examinations seldom reveal any serious affections of the viscera, or. for that matter, anything abnormal in the physiological conditions of the stricken person. The same also applies to people killed by contact with live wires. In cases of lightning stroke and electric shock some of the chief nervo centres are Intensely stimulated. One of these, the medulla oblongata, situated at.the head of the spinal cord, exercises considerable control over the movement of respiration; while the nerve which it sends out and which is called ircm Its wanderings the vagus, has a similar power over the action ofthe heart; so that when these nerve masses are subjected to any undue excitement the functions of respiration and circulation are al once interefered with.

Chinese Situation London, August 24.���������Fierce fighting and disscntlon arc apparently tollowftig in the wake of the relief of Pelcin. The Daily Mail publishes despatches from the Chinese capital as late as August 17. declaring a great fire was then raging In tho imperial city. The Russian commander had declined to accept the decision of the other generals not to violate the imperial precincts and street fighting was going on. General Chaffee, so it is asserted, maintained the Chinese had been ad-quately -punished already and that it would he unwise to take the imperial palace. This explains the withdrawal of the Ac- ericans after breaching three gates, as cabled by the special correspondent of Associated Press. The Russian general maintained however, that his government had declared war against China and therefore there were no reasons to prevent him carrying hostilities into thc sacred precincts. Judging from various, and in many cases contradictory despatches that have reached Europe this morning from Pekin. the commanders eventually adopted a middle course, for a Renter telegram says associate sentries were placed to prevent looting, hence It is presumed that the imperial buildings, although captu*ed, will not be destroyed. The fires appear to he caused by the Chinese themselves. All the despatches point to the fact that the latest received here from Pekin the commanders -were somewhat at bay regarding future action, awaiting Instructions from their governments. The foreign residents appear to have been sent to Tien Tsin, although the St. Petersbuig correspondent of the Daily Mail says the ministers will not leave Pekin until negotiations for indemnity are underway. Neither the commanders nor thp diplomatists were in communication with the Cfhinase government on the 17th of August. They were- then searching for Prince Tuan. Among - the puzzling reports as to the whereabouts of the dowager empress is one frrm St. Petersburg that she is in the vicinity of Pekin. but surrounded. The emperor appears to have disappeared completely. It Is officially reported that the minister of the Netherlands. Dr. Knobel, was slightly wounded during the siege. St. Petersburg despatches announce good progress in the Malchurian campaign. The town of Mergen was captured on -August 18th." with trifling Russian loss while the Chinese suffered severely, having 10 guns, 700 rifles and large quantities of ammunition lost to the Russians. The report of risings in Northern Corea are confirmed. It is believed that these are not due to ill will towards foreigners but to local dissatisfaction. According to telegrams'from Shanghai, considerable uneasiness is felt there over the fact that no despatches have been received from Pekln since August 20th.

Che Foo, August 26.���������It is rumored on good authority that Russia. Germany and Japan have declared war on China and will invite England and the United States to retire. Washington, August 25.���������A cablegram has been received from Admiral Remey in ���������which he states that it Is reported that the Russian commander at Pekin has forbidden any communication between his forts and the Chinese. The most" unsatisfactory development of the day so far as the pacific programme of the ' United States goes, was the receipt of a despatch from Admiral Remey conveying the lepoits which had reached him of a disagreement between" the commander of the Russian forces and the other internationals.' The text of this dispute was not made public, -=������������������but��������� it���������was^-said���������on���������good���������^authority. that the*Russian commander had forbidden communication with the Chinese on the ground that Russia t was technically as well as practically at war with China. Washington, August - 26.*���������Russia, Germany and'japan have not declared war upon China either separately or lu concert. This statement ia made upon authority of the highest character. What these nations may do within the next 48 hours or within the next fortnight is a matter which no one in Washington Is prepared to answer. A brief despatch from Che Foo, conveying a rumor current there that Russia, Germany and Japan had joined in a declaration of war upon China, aroused some interesting comment among Washington officials ana among diplomatic representatives of tl>c foreign governments resident here. ��������� in neither official nor diplomatic circles, however, was tho rumor taken seriously. No Information of such action^ijas reached either the department of state or the legations of the governments,primarily interested. This fact alone in accepted ln official circles as a suffici .ni refutation of the rumor. i The rumcr of wsr hy Russia, It is explained may -have fcrown, out of the operation of the troops of the czar In the protection oll.the southeastern frontier of his empire, or it may have arisen from the statement of . the commander of the Russian forces at Pekln thpt his government was at -war with China and therefore he must prohibit communication with the Chinese. Neither the operations of Russia on thc frontier nor the prohibition by a Russian general of communication with the Chinese would constitute, lt Ib said, a declaration of war by Russia. No gen- oral by mere dictum could declare war. Even his statement that his government had declared war could not mako It so. A declaration of war, it Is pointed out by tho best authorities, is a perfectly distinct and obvious proceeding. Thc. understanding among Washington officials of Russia's action Is that the empire has declared the three provinces on Its southeasterly frontier In a utate of siege. This is altogether different from a declaration of war. It corresponds to a declaration of martini law hy Groat Britain, and to n. suspension of tho right of habeas corpim by thc United StatcB. It Is pointed out that Russia hns two objects In hor present operations, thc rescue of the lega tions and protection of her frontier. The avowed object of the other powers is simply the rescue and protection of the legations and other foreigners. In carrying out Iter second object Russia has seized New Whang. This was done to obtain a base of operations from which the frontier could be easily reached.

Ottawa, August 25.���������Tho government is making a couple of changes in tliu regulations affecting mining in the Yukon territory. Tho system of retaining for the government the alternate sections or block3 along the creeks is being abandoned. This was the plan first tlxed upon by the minister of the interior when tho country first attracted Ihe notice of tho outside world and was deemed expedient as a means of guaranteeing an adequate i-eturn for the large public outlay Involved in thq opening and management of the Yukon district. Another step the minister .of the interior is taking in the interest of the Individual miner in the Yukon which Is to provide that on creeks which are worth mining by tho placer system the preference shall be given to placer miners over hydraulic mining. That is to say in other words where thc stream is rich enough to yield a fair return to,tho individual miner such an area is not to be handed over,by the local authorities to hydraulic companies whose grant is a larger one than is allowed by ordinary free LABOR RIOTS At Akron, Ohio ��������� Several Arrests Expected Akron, Ohio, August 24. ��������� There was no trouble of any kind in this city during the night.the streets being practically deserted except by tho soldiers, who patrolled all the thor- oughfaies in the business sections.

ALLEGED NOTORIOUS CRIMINAL ARRESTED Halifax. August 23.���������The Allan liner Assyrian which arrived at 9 o'clock tonight from Liverpool and Glasgow, via St. Johns, brought as a steerage passenger a man who is alleged to be one of the notorious criminals of Europe. Detective Power and Acting Immigration Agent Clay were on the wharf awaiting the arri- ival of the steamer and as soon as thc gangway was put up they went on heard. The detective and the immigration agent had telegrams and papers in their possession to prevent one of the passengers from landing at this port and they lost no time in locating the man they wanted. The man prevented from landing is John Hannu, a Swede, who is credited with having taken the lives of nine human beings. The captain of the steamer when apprised of the character of the man he had on board his ship was greatly surprised. During the voyage over Hannu was one of the best conducted passengers on board. No one ever suspected him of being a murderer. The information of his being on board the Assyrian was received here from the department of justice. Ottawa, an order in council having heen passed to prevent his landing on Canadian soil. The murders were committed, it is alleged at Stockholm, Sweden, where Hannu was convicted on- the crimes. He served 12 years of his .sentence and then the authorities at Stockholm deported him from the country. As Hannu had vowed to keep on killing people, this terrible threat was the reason for his deportation. IMPERIAL B/\KK. OF CANADA Head Office, Toronto.

He got the Axe just the same, but Instead of cutting down the tree he chipped off two decimal nought eight inches of bark. And the Tree still lived and prospered. Then did that Politician go about, through the Country saying "Behold what liars mine Enemies are! Tbey told you I would cut down that Tree yet it lives and liourlshes.

Wc OUTLOOK ALL RIGHT Mr. Foster on the Prospects of the Coming Electiou. Hon. Mr. Foster, speaking at Gage- town, N. B. of the prospects of the coining election, said: " We were asked what, the prospects of the Liberal-Conservative party were throughout Canada. He could 'safely say they wure never blighter. He would tell his hearers just why he made this slatinent, and point out things which indicated it. There was no better indication than the result in Manitoba, lt was a straight party fight. Air. Greenway and Air. Sifton suited that if Air. "Macdonald were relumed to power, it would be equivalent to electing Sir Charles Tupper and his party. A band of seven men was all I lie Liberal-Conservatives bad in a House of 3S members. Now, Air. Ahicdouald had a majority of 10, The Liberals in that province "were pretty well broken up. from the. rucoid of the old government as it had been shown np. In the Northwest Territories and British Columbia. he ventured l.o say, from observation and information received from others, that tlie Liberal-Conservatives would sweep them. People present could judge for themselves as to the Aliiritiine Province lie consider them safe. Everywhere the party was united. It was "not sn in lSiXi. The party was defeated by tbe defection of members. It was united now, and put. a uilited party on tlie track of a discredited party, and it. was safe to say what tbe result would be. The electorate w-is intelligent and .honest, nud the Liberal- Conservatives stood in a good position. They hart lost one man who went over to the enemy, but there was good reason fo believe that this loss would be repaired at the next election. lie thought, the, party would do as well next time as thev did in 1S0B. ft would not surprise him if they did belter. But. someone asks, how about Quebec? There was 11 comforting feature in that respect. It was there the Liberal- Conservatives slipped up before. Sir Wilfrid Laurier trot, a big majority in that province. He got. so many lhat lie could never hope to do it again. The Liberal-Conservatives had a chance of splitting it. They had some splendid men there, who stood by the policy of tlie parly in every way. These men were meeting wilh a good reception, and looked for gains there. He considered the prospects encouraging from the goodness of the party's causi and these indications. Name on Every Piece A Fresh Supply Just to Hand in i-2lb. and i lb. Boxes. 1 DRUGSTORE Geo. F.
