The streets of Bei im . ere early alive wiih the ds of person 'esirous of witnessiug the u.amphal procession accompanying lhe Prince from the railway station to the oastle of his imp rial hoat. Four yean Hgo, P.iuce Bismarck letired a quarrel with his Emperor and amen thai time, until to day, he has never seen hr�� majtsiy. Bul lo-rlay, upon-'the Emperor's invitation, the Prince came to Berlin and an the people showed him that in spite of hia "Blood and Iron' rule, ho has still a warm place in-their hearts. The only topic of conversation in the cafes and other places where the public is wont to gather, was the visit of the Prince aud its pvpbable effeot on tbe political situation, for tnough it is said that Prince Bismarck has for ever retired from public life, it is thought that the Emperor will not disdain to seek advice from a man whose statesmanship has always beeu successful. The castle at Friedriohshue, where Prince B.smarck resides, was early astir, and preparations for his journey were soon completed. All the residents in the vicinity wciu out to J**'* God spued to the o.d n>** who is a great favorite among those %us live near him. At ten minutes past nine, six ladies, all dressed in white, proceeded lo the casilu and presented to Prince Bismarck a large laurel wreath bound with ribbons and bearing the inscription, "A happy journey." When the time arrived for lhe slart to be made for the station, the Prince appeared in the doorway of the castle and, after bowing to the peasants who had gathered to see him off, entered a carriage and was driven to the station. He wore the white uniform of the Halberstadt Cuirassiers with the distinctions of a general. Over the uniform he wore a heavy fur coat to protect himself .against the cold. He was accompanied by Princess Bismarck, his son Count Herbert Bismarck, Dr. Schweninger, private secretary Chrysan- der, and several friends. Six young girls led the way to the station, strewing Bowers along the road. The people of Hamburg were greatly interested in the visit of the Prince, and a large crowd of the residents of that city arrived at Friedriohshue at 8 o'clock to see him start on his journey to Berlin. A special carriage aird a special luggage van were attached lo tin Hamburg express train for the Prince's use. Princess Bismarck did uot accompany her husband auy further than the station. When the train reached Spandau, one of Berlin's suburbs, the saloon cairiage and the luggage van were dropped by the Hamburg express and another engine was hitched to take ihem io Lehrte station. This engine Mas In Liutiiully decorated with garlands uud flowers. Trie train arrived at the station at tho exactly appointed time. Prince Henry of Prussia, the Emperor's brother, tin* Governor of Berlin and large suite of offieors, were iu waiting for tho coming of the Prince. Wheu the train stopped, Prince Henry stepped out from the group surrounding him, and walked lo the carriage occupied by the ex-chancellor. Prince Bismarck came out upon the platform and Prince Henry grasped bim by lhe hand and shook it warmly. He also shook hands with Couul Herbert Bismarck. Then followed the others of the party, who walked lo where the royal state coach was in waiting. Prince Bismarck urade Prince Heniy walk on the right side aud also sit on the right eide of the carriage, although the prince tried to give Prince Bismarck the place of honor. Couut Herbert Bismarck and the tlovernor of Berlin, drove iu the second carnage, which wis an open landau, while Dr. Schwieninger rode bohiud the regular procession, in a cab. As Prince Bismarck approached, the crowd broke out into the most enthusiastic cheering, and many were the salutations shouted to him. The prince was evidently Hi.ally pleased with his welcome. He sunleit in rcspouue to tiro cries, and saluted the crowd fuqueully. Half a squadron of tho Gardes du Corps rode in front and he- hind lire closed oarriage. The vehicle hud very large windows, and theso permitted everything to be seen, and allowed the crowrl to look on tho face of the prince. The route to the Royal Palace was packed with people. Most of the houses along the route were decorated with flags. It appeared as though the entire population of Berlin, swelled by thousands of persons from all parts of Germany, had turned out to welcome lhe return of the Prince, aud the younger element in the crowds cheered themselves hoarse. A detachment of police guarded the castle square and none of the public was admit ted within their lines. Inside the square, a guard of honor from the Second Regiment of Footguaid3, wiih a band and the regiments colors were drawn up.. Before the state carriage passed wi'.hiu the gates, Priuco Bismarck anil Prince Honry stepped out. Leaning heavily on Princo Henry's arm,the ex-chancellor walked down in front of the company. His form was very much bent. The party then entered the palace. THE ELITE PHOTOS The only ground-floor studio in Nanaimo Near the Opera House. The lat ,ist styles of Photos���Caronas and Mantello.

The ex chancellor's c> ea wore moist arr.l l.e looked \ery btrious. l'liuco Bismarck's gravity oi Uemeanor during his reception by his majesty was much commented upon. After welcoming the prince the emperor shook hands with Count Herbert, and the whole party then retired to a room where the King of Saxony and a number of the Herman princes were swait ing their coming. All saluted Prince Bismarck as he entered the room. Luncheon was served in the emperor's private rooms at 1:45 o'clock. Covers were laid for only three persons, the Emperor, Empress and Prince Bismarck. After the lunch, the Prince retired to the room set apart for his use in order to repose a short' time. Before he retired, the Emperor's Bon's were presented to him. In front of the rooms occupied by the Prince there were placed a double row of sentinels from the Guards Cuir ssiers. Aftsr the Prince had rested for a time, he arose. In the meantime an immenee crowd had gathered in front of the palace, pouring torrh volley alter volrey ol cheeis, or surging the patriotic hymns, "Heilder Im Siegerkranz," "Die Wacht Am Rhein," and "Deutschland Ueber alies." This was kept up until the Emperor, Em- press and Prince Bismarck appeared at a window, and slightly bowed to the crowd that at once went almost wild in their demonstrations of delight. The weather was fine and nothing occurred during the day to mar the joyousness of the occasion. All the ministers, including Chancellor Von Caprivi, left their cards for Prince Bismarck. Dr. Von Boeticher, secretary of the Imperial Home Olliee, was the first of the ministers to pay this courtesy. A deputation of the Cuirassier regiment of which Prince Bismarck was to-day appointed the head, gave a dinner this evening in hoi or of th*. prinoe. Commenting upon tbe reconciliation between the emperor and tbe priice the North German Gazette (semi-bfficial), says: "It is nearly four years since tlie emperor has been face to face with Prince Bismarck. To day the prinoe will be his majesty's guest, and the ex-chancellor will realize that the gratitude of the couit and the people for his incomparable advices remains unaltered. Every patriot thanks the emperor for preparing so joyful a day for Germany. May this feast of reconciliation bear further fruit for our whole political life." The Zukunft says that since the time, in the latter part of 1893, when the Emperor seut his dispatch from Cuens to Kissmgen, where Prince Bismarck was ill, tendering him his sympathy and offering him the use of oue of his castles, relations have never ceased between the two august personages, Dr. Schweininger regularly reporting to the Emperor everything concerning the Prince's health. Hundreds of telegrams congratulating the Prince upon the reconciliation between the Emperor and himself are arriving daily from all countries. The Italian Ambassador remarked to-day to another diplomat that to-day's meeting between the Emperor and the Prince was an hislorical event ot the first magnitude. At 3 o'clock Chancellor Von Caprivi was announced. He had an interview with tbe Prince that lasted three quarters of au hour. At 4 o'clock the Prince was driven to th>' Pal ce of tr.e Empress Frtd rick, the mother of the Emperor, and paid her a short visit. -She pressed him to st.ay longer in Berlin, hut Prince Blsmtrok btgg.n to be sllnuid to follow liis phjsieiari'a advi aud return to his homo this evening. After leaving the Empress Frederick's palace the people who were densely massed in the vicinity, broke through the police lines aud tried to unhitch the horses harnessed to the Prince's carriage. They want ed to draw him back to the castle. The Prince, however, prevailed upon them to forego their intention. The crowd was so thick that it was impossible for the horses to go faster than a slow walk, and as lhe carriage moved along the crowd surged forward with il, everybody joining in singing patriotic songs. A' 6:16 o'clock dinner was served in one of lhe rooms set apart for Prince Bismarck's use. The Emperor took dinner with the Prince. As previously arranged Prince Bismarck's stay in the oity ws��' r . At ten minutes after seven o'clock ih. evening he started from the palace ou his retuiu to Fiiedrich- shtie. Throughout the entire time of his visit, he was treated with the niosl distinguish! d cr.M sideiii'ion, aud nothing was left undone that would add to t'i* pleasure of his visit. Shortly after seven u'ulr ek lhe slate coach drew up at the mam entrance of the palace. Accompanying him was tho whole squadron of the Gardes du Corps, for the Emperor intended to show every honor to the Prince, anil had announced that he would accorrpany him lo the station, At exactly 7:10 p. m., the l'riuce appeared, leaniug on the arm of lhe Emperor and toget her they entered the carriage. Then amid the blare of trumpets the driveto the station commence'). The crowds still liugercd along the sireetsand cheer after cheer was given as the Em per r and ihe IVince with the military oavatoade swept along. The train for Friedriohshue left the station at 7:25 p.m. When the Emperor and the Prince e-tered the royal waiting room, his majesty threw his arms about the Prinoe aud embraced him repeatedly. Count Herbert Bismarck and Dr. Schweininger followed tho Emperor's carriage in a closed coach. At about. four o'clock in the afternoon Emperor William accompaniod by his suite, rode through Unter den Linden, which was filled with people for its entire length. His majesty, who celcbratoa the anniversary of his birth to-morrow, received an immense ovation. To-night most of tho illuminations prepared in honor of the Emperor's hiithday were displayed.

The Employees Petition Refused. Toledo, Ohio Jan 20. ���Ju.fge Hicks, in the United States Circuil Court to day, rendered his decision in lhe case of the em- _ nloytes of the Toledo, St. Louis and KanBaB City R. R., who asked for an order restraining the receiver from re- oucng their wages. The leceiver in his answer to the petition of the employees- lied that 'i*e reduction was absolutely jessarj, tor the reason thai the earnings of the road for tr.e lisL half of the year 1893 sno*A decreur-e of $305,000, or at a rate of ��2,000 a day, as compared with the same period of 1S92. The court, after reviewing the statements of the petitioners, and the answer of the receivers, says: Without infringing the sincerity or good faith of the petitioners, and without passing upon the facts set forth in their complaint, it is sufficient to say that the present financial condition of the property, and the unfortunate aud deplorable general business depression aud distress which every where prevails, all combine to satisfy the court that the claims of the receiver that this reduction in wages was absolutely necessary and inevitable, are so manifestly true and just, that the court upou lhe pleadings and facts, of which we must take judicial notice, must find that no case for interference with th" receivers' order is made. For the reasons rtaled, the motion of the petitioners for ao onler to the receiver lo set aside the schedule now iu force and to grant an investigation as to the necessity thereof is refused. TELEGRAPHIC SUMMARY. A loss of $900,000 in gold waB sustained by the Uuiled States Treasury Department OD Thursday, This reduces the gold holdings lo **ti7,500,000, lhe lowest point yet reached. Tho Chicago Tribune of Thursday says: The Western Wheelmakers' Association is a thing of the past. Representatives of every firm iu the a.-sooiation met at the Auditorium yesterday and voluntarily dis- bauiled the organization, Tiu* court of appeal at Piris has confirmed tbe judgment of tlie lower Tribunal, placing the affairs of the Marquis de Mores in the bauds of trustees, iu order to prevent his contracting debts or entering busiuess without their Sancton. It was reported iu London on Thursday afternoon that the Duke of Connaught, commander at Aldershot, had received orders to prepare to dispatch a body of troops to Egypt. The report was without toundation, in tact, as the Duke of Connaught was out all day wan troops on a divisional route march. Mrs. Emil Keliar of Auburn, N.Y., the wife of a sober and industrious gardener, shot and killed her husband, theu sent a bullet into the body of her nine mouths' old nt **>* d another into her own head, on Thursday. The mother and child are fatally wounded. Mrs. Keliar has displayed symptoms of insanity for some time. NANAIMO, B. C., SATURDAY, JANUARY 27, 1894. SHE HAD THE CARAMELS. Tho Country Brlrle-ifroom Couldn't Coax Her to Give Illni More Than One. They sat on the shadv side of a Lake Qeorg-e steamer, and, though it was only a half-pound box of caramels, it settled the question of domestic authority. He was a thin young man with a nervous air. He wore a mustache that was even more bashful than himself, and his face was so freckled that if there ���were any more freckles to come they ought to have beeu told to wait��� "Standing* room only." His entire outfit of clothing was new, from his new and squeaky shoes to his thirty cent necktie, equally new, though not squeaky, and he fidgeted around on a steamer camp stool with all a country bridegroom's bashful fondness. As for his companion, the New York Tribune says, it would have taken a two hundred horse-power imagination working under forced draught to think her pretty. She had largo blue eyes anil a prominently open mouth, from which projected several large und snaggy teeth, like rocks at low tide. After the fourth or fifth landing he went into the cabin and soon returned with a box of caramels, she seemed much pleased at this attention, and began the opening process immediately. When finally the caramel stratum was reached she extracted one. handed it to her husband, reserved another for herself, and then carefully tied up the box again. "If we are careful of these,' Charles, dear," she said, brightly, "they'll last our whole trip. You know we must be very economical, sweetheart." No answering gleam of oneness and pride played about among the freckles. Charles ate his meager allowance of caramel in silence, watched hers disappear within her capacious mouth, and then he said: "Nice, wasn't it?" "Delicious, dear." ' There was a moment's silence. "Wouldn't you kinder like another, Maria?" he suggested. "I think we ought tci save them, Charles, dear." He looked longingly at the box with its white paper anil gilt cor 1 and nervously twirled the bit of oiled paper, sole reminder of his caramel. "Maria." "Yes, darling." "What was yours?" "Strawberry, sweetheart," she said lovingly. "What was yours?" "Fact is," he said slowly, "I don't know. Mebbe one caramel may be enough for your little rosebud mouth, but for me to ketch the taste it takes two. Gimme another, Maria." She did not mure. She looked off dreamily over the lake and said quietly: "We nrasn't eat another till we get on the train, Charles, dear, but mebbe 'tain't too late to ketch the flavor, im"" sweetheart, if you taste hard." A PRISON ROMANCE. Discovery of a Mtuslng llrother AmonrJ Jail Inmates. "I'm going to join the army and will be gone three years." Thus wrote a young man to his dear old mother and sisters at home. The boy, says the Salem Statesman, was under sentence to state prison when he wrote the letter that he supposed would quiet all inquiry as to his whereabouts. lie had been found guilty of forgery, and the judge in pronouncing sentence upon him gave him three years at hard labor. This was several months ago, and the young man is by this time well acquainted with the monotonous routine .of life in the Oregon state penitentiary. On a recent Sunday afternoon a couple of young ladies, sint.ers, new arrivals in Salem, visited the prison. . They arrived too late to be admitted to the services, but were given seats in the waiting room. At the first sound from the choir they were interested, but as the music of the song filled the chapel and resounded throughout the corridors, they recognized a familiar sound in the sweet-toned voice that carried the air. They advanced nearer to the chapel, impelled by they knew not what and glancing through the barred doors recognized among the singers wearing the stripes the absent brother whom they supposed to tie serving his country in the army. The recognition was mutual anil it was pit- iful. The shock was more than the delicate nerves of the young women could bear. But it is only fine incident of the many. The prison is full of sad romances aud expectations that are never realized. WOMEN RACING ON STILTS. at A Unique Sport Rooently Witnessed the French Capital, A new field of competition with men, recently opened up by that indomitable- spirit of progression characterizing women of the present, is that of stilt racing. It is unique, though after all would seem to be but lapsing back to first principles, since it is primarily oue of the pleasures of childhood to be enjoyed regardless of sex, color or previous condition of servitude. It bids fair, however, not only to develop into nn art, but, in common with baseball, cricket and other games dear to the heart of the smaU boy, to have a fine financial outlook. -Tlie key-note of progress in this new line of occupation has been sounded strangely enough, not by America, but France, where, according to Kate Field's Washington, a race on wooden legs recently took place from Bordeaux to Biarritz and back, a distance of three hundred and three miles. The entries for the race were eighty-one, and when the cavalcade on stilts set off from the Hotel de la Gironde to the inspiriting music of a brass band it was accompanied by a company of bicyclers who were to follow in the wake to insure the observance of fair play. Among the racers was a man who claimed to have traveled on stilts from Moscow to Paris. A quarter of an hour after the start had been accomplished the band was again called upon to play for eighteen women and girls who essayed to make the run of fifty miles from Bordeaux to Cerans and back the same day.

Qulck-Traveliojf A noricaos Responsible tor the Passion for Speed. This is ar. age of extreme rapidity, and the pasbion for speed in every form of movement appears to grow more intense with every year. The demand for the saving of every minute that can possibly be saved in crossing the ocean is so strong that the steamship lines have felt compelled to build bigger and swifter steamers one after another, although the outlay involved has been something prodigious. So marked progress has already been made in cutting down the time required in crossing the Atlantic, and so many vessels have already been built or ordered, that in a few years the transatlantic fleet, for the number of huge ships employed, for the marvelous celerity of their passages, for the splendor of their appointments, for the luxury of travel by water, will exemplify the marvelous development of the nineteenth century in a way that must mightily impress the whole civilized world. But, according to the New York Tribune, it is not only on the water that people wish to move with the greatest rapidity that is consistent with safety. The anxiety to get from one place to another with the least possible delay is characteristically American, and the American railways are constantly improving their service. They did not advance with much swiftness in that direction until within the last score of years, but the steps onward that have beeu taken by the railroad corporations in that time are notable indeed. The limited expresses running between the principal cities of the country have far surpassed the most sanguine expectations of the railroad managers and the railroad passengers of a quarter of a century ago. America is now ahead of the rest of the world in the swiftness of her railroad trains, and if it were not for the haste which Americans are so passionately fond of in traveling it is not at all likely that so powerful and rapid vessels would have been required on the transatlantic lines.

He didn't begin to pound the rather thin soles of the poor fellow's worn shoes, as is the custom of the park keepers in dealing with sleeping tramps on the benches. He reached over and grasped the sleeper by the nose, and the fellow was on his feet in an instant. "You must have tweaked it pretty hard," suggested a witness of the incident. "Not a bit, sir," he replied. "I didn't hurt him at all. You see, sir, barring the lungs the nose is the principal organ of respiration, and the lung's, sir, wouldn't have much to do if it wasn't for the nose. When a man's asleep, and especially when he's drunk as well, he's pretty sure to breathe as nature intended him to, sir, and that's through his nose. All you have to do then, sir, is to pinch his nose, shut off his wind, and up he comes with a snort. It's a good^deal more human, sir, than the bastinado, and I always apply it, sir." Simple Fare. "They don't raise boys as they used to," said Tom Caloway, deputy sheriff of. Jersey county, lilinois. "When I was a boy we were fortunate indeed if we got two months' schoolin' during the winter. And then we had to work pretty hard and go barefooted most of the time; but nevertheless I believe we enioyed ourselves as much as boys of the present generation. I remember I used to attend a country school, and it was the custom for the boys to stay all night at one another's home. I had some cousins I used to bunk with occasionally, and it would surprise the boys of to-day to see the- meals we had. At both supper and breakfast my aunt would heat a kettlef ul of milk and stir corn bread in it until it was rather thick, and then she would set the pot in the corner of the room on the floor, and we boys would go at it 'all hands round,' each eating out of the pot with a tin spoon. At that kind of a meal I am afraid our boys would turn away in discrust..'

Baker's motion on the subject of international bimetallism was carried, with only three dissentients. Col. Baker made an eloquent and exhaustive speech in support of his motion. It. is not of course to be supposed that the action of the Provincial Parliament of British Columbia in such a thing as this will have any very marked effect, but it will serve at least to show that in a matter which concerns the interests of the whole empire, and, indeed, it may be said, those of the world at large, the eyes of the colonists are upon the Imperial Government, and that they expect its policy to be truly imperial and not in any sense parochial. It, is much to be regrelted that the stand Mr. Gladstone has taken on the subject of brnretalism is not such as becomes the Premier of a wot Id-wide em pire, however much it might become him if he had only to consider the special interests of English money lenders. But he has far more than this io consider. India is the most important dependency which the British empire possesses, with a population more than eight times that of Great Britain, and it appears as certain as anything in the future can be that if the British Government dors not soon take steps in conjunction with the Governments of other leading nations to remonetize silver and fix its ratio to gold���to do in fact what Col. Baker's motion says should Ire done- India will ere long be bankrupt, British commerce with that country will bo ruined, and British investments in it imperilled or even lost. We think that it is only by re- monetizing silver in the way stated in Col. Baker's motion, that the continual fall in the value of the rupee can be stopped, and if it is not stopped India will assuredly Ire bankrupt before very long. Nothing could be done at the monetary conference of last year because the British representatives could not be got to do anything but raise objections. They seemed In >m present for that special purpose only, ami in proposing nothing themselves a d rrbjeoting lo everything proposed by others, tiny were doubtless acting according to the instructions they received from the British Government. But the critical position in which India now is, since the failure of the attempt made to stop the decline in the value of tire rupee by closing the mints in India to the free coinage of silver, may have the effect of causing the Imperial Government to reconsider its policy in this matter. Col.'Baker's motion was therefore well timed, and may possibly lead to great results. It will also help to strengthen the hands of th-se persons in Berlin who are moving in tbe matter of another international conference on the silver question. It is unnecessary to say that it would be of very great importance to the mining interests of this Provinoe if silver were remonetized, Therefore, notwithstanding the opinions of Messrs. Sword, Hall and Booih, who did their little best to hinder, Col. Baker has done good service to the Provinoe by submitting his moiion to the Assembly, and by his able speech in support of it. It would have been still better if the motion had been passed unanimously, but Colonel Baker is not to be blamed because there were three dissentients. The concluding sentences of Colonel Baker's speech are worth quoting: "President Cleveland distinctly gave it to be understood that notwithstanding the repeal of the Sherman aot, which practically continues gold monometallism as the currency of tho United States, the future policy and earnest endeavor of his government will be to bring about international bimetallism. It is not the English people who stop the way, but only a small, though highly influential, section of them, and there is, therefore, good reason to hope that the sound common sense and love of justice which is so characteristic of the English people will assert itself in this oase as it haB in all otherB where the interests of the human race are concerned. When international bimetallism becomes law, then, but not until then, we may expect that the fatal depression which is now weighing so heavily upon agriculture and upon every kind of' enterprise throughout the world, will be removed and a new era of prosperity will be inaugurated. In conclusion, he asked the House to remember that it occupies the proud position of an integral portion of the legislative mechanism of the great British Empire, and that as such it possesses tha undoubted right of expressing an opinion upon any great quostion which affects the general welfare of British sub- jucts; but in the object of this resolution the area of welfare is enlarged, it not only affects the interests of the prospectors, the miners and the traders of the province, but it is so wide and far-reaching in its purport that it touches the hem of humanity at largo." If the British and Amerioan Governments agree once on a policy of interational bime- talism, it will soon be accomplished. The chief opposition to it both in Great Britain and the United States now comes trom the class of capitalists who have money to lend. The moBt intelligent men in both countries generally favor bimetalism. We do not believe that the interests of capitalists will long be permitted to prevail over those of the majority, either in Great Britain or America, and it is quite certain that thy ought not. Rkak Admiral Bknham, it ia reported, had two long interviews on Wednesday on board tbe cruiser San Francisco, with Admiral da Gama on the subject of arbitration. Admiral Benham does not speak hopefully of the result. We suppose that the war in Brazil must go on till one side or the other has tired off all its powder. Then, no doubt, the row will otop, for a while at least. Tiik Court of Cessation at Paris h s re fused the appeal in the case of anarchist Vaillant, the bomb-thrower. Vaillant therefore will be sent to the guillotine in the course of a few daye. It is the custom in Fiance not to inform a criminal of tho date of his execution till the morning of the day on which it is to take place, and then only about two hours before the appointed time, when the prisoner is aroused, it may be from sleep, and his doom announced to him. The anarchists of Paris will not be allowed au opportunity to mafee a demon stration on the occasion. They will only hear of the execution after it ia over. Khedive Auras has been getting up fresh trouble with hia Euglish masterB in Egypt by his criticisms of British military drill. He has had to apologise, and now Lord Rosebety, the British Foreign Secretary, iB not satisfied with a bare apology; he must have a retraction of ihe strictures published by the Khedive, and Maher Pasha, his assistant minister of war, who is believed to have inspired them, dismissed. It would be better for the British to annex Egypt formally at once, and to send Khedive Abbas as a state prisoner to Ceylon, to keep company with Arahi Pasha, who, it is said, feels lonely there. They will never have peace in Egypt so long as Abbas, who seems to have become the bitter euemy of the British, is permitted to occupy the throne. It would be better to get, rid of him, and to make their power in Egypt permanent. The Fellaheen, at least, would be delighted if they did so. The anarchists at Barcelona have committed another outrage. One ot them, named Ramon Marruli, attempted on \\ ed nesrlay evening last to assassinate tho civil gnvenor, by shooting twice at him with a revolver as he was entering his coach, wounding him slightly in the arm. The assassin was immediately arrested, and will uo doubt be prompvly tried, condemned, and executed for hia crime. These anarch iais sejm to 1)*: as crazy and desperate as they are wicked. The example of Valient's fate may perhaps teach them a lesson, but it is uot at ull certain that even death at the hands of the public executioner haa any teiror* for * he e r**ck i'-s tirerr. I* ia difficult n* know wli.r. In .In v-iiir i hem. If * hey had any special grievances to be remedied, that ciilrl be corrected without subverting l>*rt.h law anil religion, they ought lo ere rrediod. But their object seemB to be, not the correction of abuses, but tho overthrow of all law, morality and religion. The latest illustration of May Agnes Fleming's theory, that wealthy American or Canadian girh are very foolish lo throw themselves away by marrying titled scamps from Europe, is afforded by the suit instituted iu Paris by the Princesa Colonna for a judicial aeparation from the Prince, her husband. The Princess Colonna is the stepdaughter of Mackay the millionaire, and it was doubtless for her money that Prince Colonna married her. The l'riuce turned out a very unworthy husband, who did nothing but spend his wife's money on his own selfish anil immoral pleasures. The result has be* n the separation of the parties, and the present application for a divorce hy the injured wife. The Princess Colonna Mould have been wiser tn have instituted her suit in the United States, where she would have heen sure of getting a divorce,than in Paris, where she will very likely be nonsuited. The Colonnas belong to one of the noblest houses in Italy, but Prince Colonna does not appear to act on the motto, noblesse oblige. He is without doubt a worthless scamp, and a disgrace to a noble name. May Agnes Fleming applies her theory, we believe, exclusively to young English nobles, who cross the Atlantic to pick up wealthy wives. It would apply far better in the cases of titled roues from France and Italy. M. GR0PPER OF THE Royal Hotel Restaurant HAS TAKEN OVER THE HOTEL [1A1j Dining Room MEALS AT m HOURS.

The mover explained that in asking for this information he was simply following out his work of last session. Motion agreed to. The Premier on Rumors. The Premier fails to perceive the utility of the rumor-joke perpetrated by the Colonist on Wednesday. This is his comment on it: "To the Editor:���I was considerably puzzled at reading in your Wednesday's issue, under a prominent heading, the 'rumor' of a parliamentary ticket, headed by Mr. Jas. Duusmuir, for Nanaimo, which 'ticket' had been selected to contest a number of provincial constituencies, and I muat confess to much dullness of comprehension in failing to perceive that the announcement of the ticket was a 'little joke' uutil I read your leader in this morniug's paper, stating that such was the case. I would suggest to your 'valued contributor' that the next time he perpetrates a 'little joke' in your columns, he should give distinct notice of the fact, so as lo take no one unawares. Theodore Davie." The Hawaiian resolutions were not considered in the United States Senate on Thursday.

The snow has been lying around the higher parts nf lhe town for some time now, and notably so in the neighborhood of the five- acre lots. Ou one of the roads, or trails, leading to this vicinity, travellers notice a dog, whioh appears quite suddeuly from apparently n where, and after following for a short distance, as suddeuly disappears. No anirriiiii r*f listening or looking reveals the di*g's whereabouts, nor cau any traces of its paws be found in the snow.

(continued) "Flush, Brisk &C".," returned Evelyn. "But I warned you," exclaimed Sir John. "You withdrew." At this juncture Cap:��iu Smooth, Mr. Stout, and Sir Frederick Blount were so moved that they withdrew to tt distant corner to consult each other as to what were bent to he done under the circumstances To Sir John's enquiry "Y,Ml withdrew?" Evelyn could or:ly answer��� "Alas! no." "Oh!" oried Sir Johu,clutching at a ntraw like a drowning man���"Not much in their hands?" "Why I told you the purchase-money for Groginhole WftB at my b inker's," said Evelyn. "But no, no: don't, look r*o frightened It was not placed with Flash���it is at Htmrir's���It is, indeed. Nay, I assure yon it is. A inern trifle at Fiashe's���upon my word, now!" Then, he continued, as Sharp was about to speak. "To-morrow, Sharp, we'll talk of this! One day more���one day. at least, for enjoyment!" and he walked to and fro in apparently great tribulation, as Mr. Sharp went out. "Oh, don't go ou in that way," cried Sir John, groaning. "You'll frighten everybody. Oh! a pretty enjoyment!" "Anil he borrowed ��700 ot me!" remarked Blount. "Ami ��600 r*f me!" cried the peer. "And ��500 of me!" exclaimed Sir John. "Oh! a regular Jeremy Diddler!" oried Stout. "I say, you have placed your daughter in a very unsafe investment," Stout continued to Sir John. "Better transfer the stook iu hand to t'other speculation." "Ha! I'm afraid we've been very rude to Sir Frederick," said Sir John to Georgina. "A monstrous fine young man !" Here Tobe appeared, and addressing his master said��� "Sir, I beg your pardon, but Mr. Finch insists on my giveing you this letter instantly." "How," cried Evelyn, reading. "Sir John, this fellow Finch has heard of my misfottunes, and insists on being paid; ���a lawyer's letter���quite insolent! Now read th.it letter, you'll be quite amused with it." "And, sir, Mi\ Tabouret is below, and declares he won't stir till he's paid!" said Toke. "Won't stir till he's paid!" cried Evelyn. "What's to be done, Sir John? Smooth, what is to be done?" "Well," oried Smooth, rising from his seat, and advancing. "If he won't, stir till he's paid, make him up a bed, and I'll take bim in the inventory as one of the fixtures, Alfred!" "It ia very well for you to joke, Mr. Smooth, but -��� " began Evelyn. He was interrupted by the entrance of a Sheriffs officer who advanced to the master of'th ) house with a paper, and whispered something to him. "What's this?" oried Evelyn. "Frantz, the tailor. Why, you impudent -rcoundrr-l! Faith! this is moro than I bargained for. Sir John I'm arrested." "Hello!" cried Stout, slapping Sir John on the back with glee. "He's arrested, old gentleman! But I didn't lend him a farthing." "And for a mere song - ��150!" cried Evelyn. "Sir John, pay this fellow, will yo? or hail me, or something while we go to dinner!" "Pay���bail���I'll be d d if I do!" shouted Sir John. "Oh, my ��500! my Evelyn, I want my Mr. Alfred ��500. ��500!" "I'm going to do a very silly thing," said Graves. "I shall lose both my friend and my money ; just like my luck ! Evelyn, go to dinner-Ill settle that for you." "1 love you for that I" cried Lady Franklin. "Do you?" ir quired GraveB. "Then 1 am the happiest. Ah! ma'am, 1 don't know what I am any nil." At thin it is unnecessary to say that, the solemn Mr. Graves was so highly elalod as it was possible for that gentleman to be under the circumstances. Taking the officer by the arm, he hurried out with him, as Lady Franklin retired to the conservatory. "Don't go by these appearances!" said ���Evelyn to Georgina. "I repeat ��10,000 will moro than cover all my embarrassments. I shall hear from you to morrow?" "Yea���yes!" hesitated Georgina. "But you're not poing?" cried Evelyn. "You too, Glossmore?���you Blount?���you .Stou'?" "Oh, this might have been expected from a man of such ambiguous political opinions!" exolaimed the horrified peer. "Baugh!" At thiB point Mr. Stout was endeavoring, hurriedly, to reaoh the door. Evelyn, however, intercepted hi **, and having caught him by tho arm, ho Bwung him ingeniously round to faco him. He was very indignant, and cried��� "Don't stop me, Bir. No man of common enlightment would have squandered his substance in this way. PiclureB and ��lat- Aie��?B.��ugh!" "Why, yon all said I culd not spend my money better I" said Evelyn ! "Ha ! ha! ha!���the absurdest mistake!���you don't ���fanoy I'm going to prison ? Ha ! ha! Why dont you laugh, Sir John ? Ha ! ha ha !" "Sir, th*js horrible levity!" oried the Bhock- ed'Sir John. "Take Sir F: edorick's arm," he adtled to Georgina, placing Blount's arm within Georgina's���"my poor, injured, in- nooent child 1" "But, my dear John, they've no right to arrest the dinner," cried Captain Dudley Smooth as Toke entered with two Bervante behind him to announce that dinner was ready. "Ah !" said Glossmore, pausing, "Dinner I" "Dinner!" moaned Mr. Stout. "It's a very good smelll" "Turtle aud venison, too 1" oried Evelyn. "That's right���come along," said Evelyn. "But, I say, Blount���Stout���Glossmore - Sir John���oue word first. WU1 you lend ��10 for my old nurse?" At this they all fell back. "Ah, you fall baok! Behold a lesson for all who build friendship upon their fortune, and not thoir virtues! You lent me hundreds this morning to squander upon pleasure���you would refuse me ��10 now to bestow upon benevolence. Go���we have done with each other���go!" "Hey! dey!" oried Graves, entering ���'What's all this?" "Ha! ha! ha!" laughed Evelyn���"the scheme prospers ��� the duper is duped! Come, my friends, come. When the standard of money goes down, in the great battle between man and fate���wry, a bumper to ihe brave hearts that, n !use to deBert us!" And he led the somewhat mystified Mr. Gr.ives triumphantly tr * he dining-room. CHAPTER XI. MR STOUT RAISES SUSPICIONS. About, a fortuight. |n*rr than 'he events related in the las* draper, Lord Glossmore, Blount, and a few friend met at he club in the morning, chiefly, il niu-jt be confessed, to talk over Evelyn's affairs. A club looks itB best in the night time; and on this occasion there was a coldness about the whole place that was tar from exhilarating "Will his horses be sold, think you?" asked Lord Glossmore of Dudley Smooth. "Very possibly, Ch.ule-!" cried the captain. "A fine stud. Hum! In! Waiter, a glues of sherry!" "They say he inn t go abroad!" proceeded the peer. "Well! it's the best time of the year for travelling, Charles " "We are all tobe paid today; and tha looks suspicious!" "Very suspicious, Charles! Hum!���ah!" "My dear fellow," said Glossmore, going over to Smooth, "you must know the rights of the matter, I wish y**u'*l speak out. What have you really won? Is the house itself gone?" "The house itself is certainly not gone," returned tne skilled gambler*, "for I i-aw it exactly in the same place this morning "it halt-past teu���it has not moved au inchl Here a waiter entered and handed a letrer to hiB lordship. "From Groginhole!" he cried, reading. "An express! What's this? I'm amazed!!! They've actually, at the eleventh hour, started Mr. Evelyn; and nobody knows what his polit cs are! We shall be beat'. The constitution is gone! Cipher! Oh! ihis is infamous in Evelyn! Gets into Parliament just to keep himself out of the bench." "He is capable of it!" said Smooth. "Not a doubt of it, air!" cried Glossmore. "Not a doubt of it! The man saves himself at the expense of his country. Groginhole is lost, and there's an end to the constitution." And he hurried out of the room as Blount re-entered with Sir John Vesey. "My dear boy, I'm not a flint. Sir Jo'n. I am but a man! If Georgina really loves you���and I am sure that she does���I will never think of sacrificing her happiness to ambition; she is yours; I told her so this very morning." 'The old humbug!" murmured Sir Frederick. "She's the best of daughters!" continued the father. "The moot obedient, artless creature! Oh! she's been properly brought up; a good daughter makes a good wife. Drue with me at seven, and we'll talk of tbe settlements." "Yes," said Blount, "I don't care for fortune; but���" 'Her ��10,000 will be settled on herself," oried Sir John, "that of course." "All of it, sir?" exclaimed Blount. "Weally, I " "What then, my dear boy?" proceeded Sir John. "I shall leave both all I've laid by. Ah! you know I'm a close fellow? Stingy Jack���eh? After all, worth makes the man I" "And the moro a man's worth, John, the worthier man he must be!" Baid Captain Dudley Smooth. And he left the room, followed by all the other gentlemen, excepting Blount and Sir Johu. "Yes," proceeded Blount to himself, "he has no other ohild! She must have all his savings; I don't, see what harm it could do me. Still, that ��10,000-1 want that ��10,000���if she would but run off now, oue could get rid of the settlements." And Sir Frederick was pondering over the matter in this very personal manner when Stout appeared, wiping his forehead. He went up at once to Sir John, and drawing him aside, said��� "Sir John, we've been played upon!" cried Mr. Stout. "My secretary is brother to Flash's head clerk; Evelyn had not ��300 in the bank!" "Bless us and save us!" exclaimed Sir John. "You take away my breath! But, then���Deadly Smooth���ihe arrest���the���oh, he must be done up?" "As to Smooth, he'd do anything to oblige. All a trick, depend on it!" crifd Stout. "Smooth has already deceived me, fir before the day's over, Evelyn will be member for Groginhole. I've had an cxprer-8 from Popkins; he's in despair; not for himself, but, for the country, Sir John���what's to become of the country?" "But what could be Evelyn's object?" asked Sir John. "Object!" exclaimed Stout. "Do you look for an object in a whimsical creature like that? A man who has not even auy political opinions! Object! Perhaps to break off hiB match wiih your daughter! Take care, Sir John, or the borough will be lost to your family!" "Aha! 1 begin to smell a rat!" cried Sir John. "But it'a not too late yet." "My interest in Popkins mado mo run to Lord Spendquick, the late proprietor of Groginhole," Stout went on. "I told him Unit Evelyn could uot pay the rest of the money; uiirl Ir* lold me that -" "What?" demanded Sir John. "Mr. Sharp had just paid it him," replied Mr. 8 out. "There's no hope for PopkiuB! England will rue this day." And Mr. Stout went up to a table and began looking at a paper. It waB evident too, that Sir John was in a thoughtful mood, tor after a long and silent pause, he murmured to himself��� "Georgina shall lend him the money. I'll lend him���every man in my house shall lend him���I feel again what it is to be a father-in-law! Sir Frederick, excuse me ���you cau't dine with me today. And, on second thoughts, I see that it would be very unhandsome to desert poor Evelyn now- he's down iu the world. Can't think of it, my dear boy���can't think of it. Very much honored, and happy to Bee you as a friend. Waiter! my carriage!" he cried. "Um! What, humbug Stingy Jack, will they? Ah! a good joke, indeed!" and he hurried out in a muoh better humor than he had been in for some time. "Mr. Stout," Baid Blount, "what have you been saying to Sir John? Something against my character; I know you have; don't deny it. Sir, I shall expect satisfaction!" "Satisfaction, Sir Frederick?" cried Stout. "Pooh, as if a nv.n of enlightenment had any satisfaction in lighting! Did not mention your name; we were talking of Evelyn. Only think!���he's no more ruined than you are."
