Ferguson Outlines Movements Leading to Enactment of Lord's Day Act. .There was a good sized audience at St. Paul's Presbyterian church last evening to hear Rev. J. T. Ferguson discuss tbe Lord's Hay Act which comes Inlo force on the 1st of March. After reading selected portions of scripture both as lessons and texts upon which to show authority for his remarks Rev. Mr. F'er. guBon introduced tlie subject of the evening by tracing briefly the history of llie movement which has led to the enactment of the present law. He showed how it had been discovered that encroachment upon the rights and liberties of the people had not been suf- licleutsy proieced by laws at preaent in torce as they were antiquated. The movement had originated with representative merchants, manufacturers and publicists. Out of this movement arose an appeal to the premier of parliament for a new law which would be worthy of the twentieth century. Mr. Ferguson deprecated the idea that the law is a sort of "Trades Union*' move- ment among ministers to force people to go to c.niieh. . He argued concluB- ibely thai neither by direct reference or by implication can such interpretation be placed upon the act. He ciied the case of France, reference lo which had been made by the premier in his reply to the committee which wailed upon him to press for the enactment of the law, showing how that nation bad been forced to take steps to enact measures winch stall stem the tide of Sabbath immorality. The force ol the speakers argument lay in the tact that Canada is ouly doing what France haa found il necessary or imperative to do late. Following up this line the status of England was referred to and briefly described. It was shown that the present social condtion iu England upon the Sabbath were recognized to be deplorable. Extracts from a pastoral letter written by the Archbishop of Canterbury, the (Catholic) Archbishop ol" Westminister and tbe president of Uie council of free Evangelical churches were read as well as the sarcastic ciillclsm of England's Sunday Socially by Marie Correli. He showed also how the house of parliament in England bad appointed a committee to report upon the question of Sabbath observance there and quoted from their reporl to show tliat the spirit of ma terialism and commercialism were Irreateuing the life of the nation socially, morally and religiously by the growing laxuess of lhe people upon tile question. ln making Ihese citations the speaker said that his poiut was to show that In tlle eiincmen of he present law Canada has done only what lhe leading and most enlightened nations of Ihe world are doing to preserve the rights of the people to one day of Felt In seven. In pointing out what the Cuuadluu acl Ib not the Rev. preacher was em phatlc in his statement that It Is nol an act to make people become nominally Christians and secondly tt ls uot an act to compel people to go to church. In slightly sarcastic tones ht said: "lf ll. were the latter I do not know that I should have a word to say ln Its favor," and he showed the Bcriptttral method of appeal In Ihese matters. In answer to Ihe question as to the aim and spirit of the act he said: " It Is an act to Interfere with those who would abuse their liberty to the Injury of Ihe common weal;" and he cited instances In which the interference with Individual rights are In constant practice because the common weal demands II. A few of the instances cited were the marriage laws and sanitation. Clause 2 of the Act (which tlle speaker had before rim) was read, and while Its prohibition wns sweeping, he went on to show that there followed 24 exceptions defining works of necessity and mercy which may be performed on Sunday. The very number of theso showed that the legislators had tried to frame a law which, while conserving the common good, -sought to make it broad enough to cover all the necessities and even frailitles of human nature. He plead for an tqually broad appreciation of the Act and said It simply meant to show that If things went swinging along at the present gait the result will be that multitudes will be deprived of their inalienable rights. He dealt with some criticisms of the Act, among them one by a much respected local authority, who had characterized; it as "grandmotherly and pharisaiual." Afeain In slightly sarcastic tones he Bald: ".With all due respect to the critic, he would lie sorry to admit this criticism as just." Denning the terms grandmotherly and Pharisaical he showed how this, if true, meiuit "that the government had com inltted an act of incredible folly, and he was not prepared to admit that such was tre case." He said, also, that if these criticisms were right it meant "that it would be wrong and foolish for the government to protect the rights of laboring men," and it meant further, "that the government had spent a greal amount of time In an attempt to ac- complish something that was impos- sslble." After some further reference to the minor details of the Act, such as Its prohibition of Sunday games, boating and the like, all of which, he aald, were prsiliibiu 1 only when practised for gain. He acknowledged the debtiof the people to great corporations, but said he was "glad the government had put lt into the hands of the people to protect themselves from what might seem to these corporations a necessity to exact from Iheir employees more than they were entitled to." This with special reference to their power to compel employees to work seven daya or lose their places. In conclusion he made an eloquent plea that the act might be interpreted in the higher light of what civilisation means. In judging the Act consideration should be sincerely and cordially given to what was the aim of the act. He quoted a very ancient maxim of statesman ship: "The strength of thc law lies In the consent of the people," and he earnestly asked his hearers to recognize this ln their estimate of the Act. Instead ot looking for faults and imperfections they should rise to an ap- preciation of its aim and what it must ultimately mean to our civllzation as well as our moral safety.. He pointed out tbe educational value of the Act. inasmuch as it had already set people thinking and asking themselves the question "Am I doing right, by myself, by my family, by society and by my community?" In his peroration he set forth the words of the Creator in which it was claimed that the Sabbath law Is a great gift and IU observance a great privilege and he asked that In all criticism or appreciation .of it be interpreted acoordlng to the spirit in which the Sabbath day as a benflcient institution was conferred upon humanity. GUNTER IS DEAD. Author, Playwright and Publisher Passes Away Suddenly.

HOW IT WILL WORK Lord's Day Act When Properly Enforced PROSPECTUS OF DETAILS Secretary Rochester Answers Questions Affecting Minor Sunday Privileges. Victoria, Feb. 25.���The Sunday Act, which will come into force on March 1st will affect many residents. The western secretary ol the Lord's Day alliance, Hev. W. M. Rochester, who is at present In Victoria in -company with a number of the members of tbe local organization, waited upon the attorney general with a view to obtaining bis assent to prosecutions under the act provided a reasonable case is laid. Cigar stands, confectionery stores and groceries all come under this act, but in order to prevent prosecution the assent of the attorney general must first - be obtained before a charge may be laid or a case followed up. Tne^e has never been a Sunday observance law enforced on the Island. When British Columbia was elected into a colony by the Imperial government in 1852, the governor, Sir James Douglass, by proclamation, brought into force the English Sunday act. When British Columbia became a province of the Dominion the law was continued in force, but the law was never enforced on the island. A meeting ot the Lord's Day alliance was held in Victoria yesterday when It was shown that, hereafter, if the act be strictly enforced It will be Illegal for the Sunday school children to receive their little paper on the Lord's day. This somewhat startling discovery aiose out of a question asked by one of the audience. Rev. Dr. Rochester, the travelling secretary of the alliance, who was the speaker of the evening, had been explaining the regulations of ihe act to govern the publication of newspapers on Sunday. Not only was it forbidden to issue a journal on the Lord's Day, but he also pointed out the sale or distribution on the Sabbath of papers published in any foreign country was prohibited, it was then that one oi those present asked Mr. Rochester how the law would apply to the Sunday school papers. Mr. Rochester appeared somewhat puzzled, and remarked that this was a matter which had been overlooked in drawing out the act Where are the papers published," he asked. "On the American side." "Well, if that's the case, I'm afraid ihat lt will be illegal to distribute them oa Sunday," replied Dr. Rochester, and a buzz of excited whispering rose from the audience. The prospect of little Johnny getting his Sunday school Bheet through the post was a distinctly novel one and opened up a long vista of possibilities. Sunday excursions were to be strictly prohibited. "I dou't know whether you have had Sunday excursions in this piovlnce or not," said Dr. Rochester, but in Winnipeg, steamboat excursions on the Red River have been taking place every Sabbath during the summer time. When the act is enforced there will be no more of this." Some member cf the audience was moved to ask how this would effect "tram companies running cars to a park where there are Sunday band concerts." "Such csncits would bj forbidden under the act," replied Dr. Rochester. "But mere ia no admission charged," chorused several voiceB. "No matter, the bandsmen would have to be paid. They would be following their cuitouiary avoc.tion on the Sabbath," explained Dr. Rochester, "and tliat Is prohibited." Sunday newspapers, * the doctor Btated, would become a thing of lhe past. Victorians would have to read their Sunday paper on Mends;, "I know lhat it ls claimed," said he, "that more work ls done for a Monday paper on Sunday, than for the Sunday paper on Sunday." This, however, he explained, was one of those cases where the interest of the few must give way before the intest of the many; and he felt sure that those who might be Inconvenienced by the act would show their magnanimity by standing in with the movement for Sunday observances. Coming down to Victoria, Dr. Rochester suggested that It would be in the best Interests of the city to have the bootblack stands, the confectionery and tobacco stores and the newsstands closed on the Sabbath. As to the sale of liquor on Sunday, he was sure that sufficient attention was already paid to that. Confers Grand Cordon. Rome, Feb. 25.���King Victor Emmanuel has signed a decree bestowing on George Von Lengerke Meyer, the newly- appointed postmaster general In President Roosevelt's cabinet, the grand -cordon of the order of St. Maurlc and St Lasarus as an expression ot appreciation for his work when United States ambassador to Italy.

THAW \m RESUMED Attorney Jerome Again Places Evelyn Nesbitt on the Rack���Revelations of High Life Continue. New York, Feb. 25.���When the trial of Haery K. Thaw for the murder of Stanford White was resumed this morning before Justice Fitsgerald ln the supreme court, Distriet Attorney Jerome continued with his cross-examination of Evelyn Nesbitt Thaw. She was immediately called to the stand and without any preliminary statement the attorney started into his work. Mrs. Thaw looked recovered after her three day's rest and answered the first questions put to her confidentially. Thaw brought with him from the Tombs several packages of letters and papers. Mr. Jerome, as on thc previous days of his cross-examination, continued to jump about from place to place In the witnesses' Btory. He asked first of all today if she had not had trouble with her mother tn Alleghany, Pa, before going to Philadelphia to live. If she had not run away with another girl. This Mrs. Thaw denied. "How long after the drugging in the 24th street house was It that the account was opened up for you ln the Amsterdam Bank by Stanford White?" "I can't tell how long, it might hare been a month." "When did you first meet Frances Belmont?" "When I was In Florodora." "Before ycu met Stanford White!" "I think so." "Had you gone to supper with Fran cis Belmont before you met White." Mr. Jerome continued to hold the menace of documentary evidence before the witness, basing all his questions evidently upon affidavits made by the glrl'B mother and brother. "No." She had gone to several suppers with Frances Belmont afterwards but White was not present at all, except one. Mr. Jerome asked the witness it she had not often gone to suppers with two men, whose names he whispered to her. "I never went with them, but they were present.'* "Did they not on occasions take yon home?" "One took me home twice, and the othe once, but there was always another girl with me.' ' ��� "Miss Belmont?" "No." "These suppers were after the theatre?" "On Feb. 22nd, 1902, were you on good terms with Frances Belmont?" "I think so." "After you left Florodora what was your next employment?* * "With the Wild Rose in Phil* ile'phia." "Who was there with you " "My mother." "Do you know Angella Vincent?" "Yes." A letter and env lope was shown Mrs. Thaw, who identified ihe writing as t^at of While. The e-ivelope was postmarked Boston. Jan. 20th. 1902. and was n.lilr-'sse] to Charles Hartnett, while p-lvate secretary. It read: "Dear Ha-tnett���Please telephone Mrs. Net- b'tt to let you know whenever Miss Evelyn decid's to go on her vacation. Then hand this note to tbe Mercantile Tru��t company.. Please n'tlfv Miss Ne-hltt that on receiving word that she Is to start en her vacation you will Beand her the weekly checks for $25 and an odlltioURl che-k for 1200." By this letter and the Introduction cf checks sl-rn'd both hy Evelyn Ne* bti and her mothT, Mr. Jerome refreshed Mrs. Thaw's memory eo that sh? said she hsd lived at the Auditorium apartments from Feb. 1 to April 1, 1902. Th? checks were given In payment of hotel bills and were drawn against a deposit made In the New Am- st'-rilnm bank by Stanford White to Ihe joint credit of Mrs. Nesbitt and her daughter. By producing exhibit 23, a check. Mr. Jerome brought out the fact that between April 1, 1902. and April 17, 1902. Mrs. Thaw and her mother went to live at tho Hotel Arlington. Mrs. Thaw was confronted by Dr. CatlUon nnd Dr. Flint, but denied po�� tlvely that Bhe had ever seen htm be fore Bhe had gone out with Jack Bar- rymore. Justice Fitzgerald ruled out the question when Mr. Jerome asked Mrs. Thaw lf White had not urged her have Barrymore arrested for seduction MADE GREAT HAUL Treasury Loses Nearly Quarter Million ENVELOPED IN MYSTERY United States Vaults Looted of Vast Sun by Clever Employees��� Detectives Disclosures. Chicago, Feb. 25.���The Tribune today sajns: Somewhere between 1175,000 and 1200,000 were stolen from the local sub- treasures* laat week.. Chief Wllkle of the United States secret service, has been keeping informed by telephone and telegraph of every dedelopment ln the case and will leave Washington today to take personal charge of the investigation made by the authorities Secretary Shaw of the treasury department was told of the theft when he reached here laat week and conferred with Sub-Treasurer Wm. Bolden Welcks and the secret service officers. The money was stolen either a week ago Saturday, th next day or laat Monday. The chances are it was abstracted on Monday. Tbe loss waa discovered on Tuesday. All the money taken was tn bills of the denomination of 11000, fSOOO and $10,000. At first It was beUs-vat that there waa some error in the bookkeeping. It wu thought to be Impossible that audi a large sum of money ecsM have been abstracted in face ot an th* safeguards around Uncle Sam's strong boxes. The ledger men strenuously deny any error and an invesigatlon showed that there was no possible clerical message to account for the disappearance Mt the caah. This brought the inevitable conclusion that robbery waa the only explanation.. Just as certain was the deduction that the thievea wero employees of the sub-treasury and were at that moment pursuing tseir dally tasks. Every man who could have had anything to do with the case waa called Into Treasurer Bolden Weick's office and put through an exhaustive examination and a still more rigid cross-examination by Captain Hotter, of the secret service. They stood the ordeal. All denied knowledge of the theft and protested their innocence. But it waa obvious that some one was lying. The chances are 10,000 to 1 tbat one or more of the employeea actually had purloined the cash or had connived at the theft by some outsider. Day by day the investigation haa been kept op. Saturday there came a glimmer of light. A faint clue pointed ln the direction of a certain clerk, and that followed up, directed the fires of suspicion to another, employee, a cloae associate of the flrat man. The men were summoned separately. The suspicious circumstances were the certalnity of detection and punishment was impressed upon them and they were advised to make a clean breast of whatever part they had played in the conspiracy. One, thought to be the moving spirit came down through the ordeal calm and self-posessed.. The officers put him down as Innocent or a master hand ot criminality. The other, younger, showed signs of breaking down. Just what he admitted the secret service men refuse to disclose, but It Is believed lo be tantamount to a confession. The admission he made started the lavesti- gatlon Into renewed activity. Half a dosen officers started out and results are predicted soon. Every employee of the office Is under surveillance day and night, aa dshould one of them prove to the thieves, escape will be Impossible. *���"_" Italy and The Hague. Rome, Feb.

MORAL REFORM. It is doubtless the duly of sill journals having the welfare of the public at heart to give Home prominence to the Question of foral reflrm bul It ta dls, tirictively the duty of religious journals. The Western MethoHat Recorder, pub, llshed at Victoria, evidently recognises this und in a well written, though father ambtgtous editorial in its February number makes some comparisons be, tween tbe attitude of ihe present k<>v ernment and that of the opposition on the question of local option. After pointing out that the government is equipped to grant good legislation and while "there is reason to doubt thai it wili do so," the Reoorder kocb on to say: "Moral reformers can hardly bs ex. peeled to forget that in the last house it was the Conservatives who opposed locai option and the Liberals who nearly all supported it. There were, probably, special circumstances which partly account for this, but it is nol creditable to the predominant party and though their Interests were notaffecttd by it in the recent election ll will not be safe for any party or politician in future to trifle with the growing strength of moral sentiment On the other hand, the Uberal party lusl many adherents in the recent contest because, ���while always posing ��s the party of true reforms, thep hadn't the courage to include a single moral rtform plank��� not even temperance���Intheir platform. There is little organisation of moral tientlmenl at present, but there are many Indications that tlie public Is beginning to look for moral principle in public affairs." We do not know what the Recorder cun mean in stating that were special circumstances which induced the mem bers of the Conservative party to vote against local option but we are of the opinion that the commendation of the Liberals in the local house is easily understood. The implied compliment is, we fear, entirely undeserved. If the Liberals of Hritish Columbia are any more in favor of moral and temperance reform than the Conservatives they are of a different stamp from those of other provinces. Every one will remember the humiliating treatment of these questions by the late Koss government In Ontario. Forced by years of agitation and the insistent demands of a large and influential body of temperance reformers, well organized, they granted a vote on a prohibitory measure which was overwhelmingly carried by the country. Hacked thus, apparently at least, by public sentiment, and perfectly safe in doing so, what would naturally be expected of the Koss government would be tbe enactment of prohibitory legislation. Did they do this? Not at all.. They suddenly made the discovery that there were doubts as to whether such legislation lay within the prerogative of provincial assemblies or was exclusively lhe privilege of the Dominion parliament. On carrying the case to the privy council they found, with a feeling of relief, that the function was beyond them. When Parliament Hill at Ottawa was attacked by the temperances forces backed by largely signed petitions It at last reluctabtly consented to submit a prohibition plebiscite, but in doing so the government made the conditions so onerous thut to carry the plebiscite with the required majority proved to be an impossibility and again the ques- ton was conveniently shelved. We do not know how long it will remain on the shelf but it Will not be taken off by the Uberal party until extreme pressure proves the expediency of doing so. We state these things, not at all for the sake of arguing against any special method of moral reform but to show what has been the attitude of Liberals In other provinces and in the Dominion. In seeking reasons for the reluctance of parliament to deal drastically with recognized snd soccalletl moral evils The Recorder states one of them succinctly when it says: "However, we moral reformers ourselves, are not free from reproach. There must be agreement as to what we want and such united effort to secure it that when the authorities are approached they will be convinced the demand comes from not a few but formidable multitude of the people." Since the admission is so frankly made by the journal in question it is unecessary to enlarge further upon it. The other feature of the situation which must not be overlooked Is that there Is no general concensus of opinion on questions of moral reform as there Is upon political and economic questions. It is not difficult to get together enough men who agree on political questions to form a strong party and to raise and prosecute issues more or less Important. On moral reform issues, while there is a general agreement that moral ri'form is good, there is an equally general feeling that It Is good for the other fellow.There is a morbid dread of interference by legislation with what people are pleased to call their individual liberties and this is especially the case ln matters of temperance. It goes to show tliat such measures of reform as are deslrel by those who are in advance of general sentiment upon the subject can only be secured by reforming men from within, which is to say, by converting men to the same thought upon the question as the wouldbe reformer. The greatest eras in temperance advance were wren men used their persuasive eloquence to create a healthy deprecation of the traffic in aud use of strong drinks. While we are in no sense opposed to more advanced temperance legislation we are of the opinion that it cannot be secured by using the big stick to legislatures and parliaments. A more general recognition of this theory by reform workers and a reversion to old time methods will create the sentiment desired and better laws will come naturally if they be needed at all. LORD'S DAY ACT. The Lord's Day Act, an act to secure the better observance of the day com. monly called Sunday, comes into efftct on Friday next and next Sunday people who desire to obey the letter of the law will find their liberties considerably curtailed. Those people who have no respect for the law will continue to do us they please and perhaps take the consequences. In many respects the act is a desirable and commendable one. In so far us it secures men their natural right to a day of rest���or we may say the day of rest���It is good. The tendency of cor' porations is to regard every day alike and to exact for their employees unremitting toil. That this is an evil no one will deny and any measure which will protect a man who labors from being compelled to labor seven days a week or lose his employment is good. Doubtless the absence of such a law has had a tendency to encourage corporations to increase the earning powers of their plants by forcing meu to labor unnecessarily and its proper enforcement will work for the good of ail concerned by reducing this leniency to a minimum. There are other features of the law which are not to be commended. We refer to these features which interfere in what men have learned to regard as their natural liberties in the pleasuarable enjoyment of Sunday. A large majority of Canadian people have outgrown the Puritanical ideas of the manner in which Sunday should be kept. It is doubtful if the people of any Canadian city running street cars on Sunday would vote for the abolition of the service. Yet the law���in spirit at least���means that these should be stopped. Its compromises on the question is a catering to public opinion which shows the difficulty the Cramers of the law have had to meet in securing what they desired aud yet keeping far awuy enough from the precipice to evade being plunged over. That it will be geserally obeyed ln the west we reluctantly disbelieve. We fear the industries of the country are such that, while the evils of Suiilay labor may be reduced, they cannot be abolished though we heartily wish it were otherwise. In bo far as boating, fishing, shooting aud the generally indulged sports we fear it will be utterly Ineffective. As the question of Sunday newspapers does not concern The Dally Canadian as yet we shall not discuss than fealuru of the law. EDITORIAL COMMENT, We may frankly say that we ure much mistaken In Premier Meilride if he allowH the Grand Trunk Pacific railway to appropriate those Indian lands north without just compensation. Party politics are ine thing, but provincial rights are another.���Grcenwool Times. Th "Old Man" of he Cranbrook Heraldd is not without a knowledge of how to hit below the belt.

The Daily Canadian OUR OTTAWA LETTER. Interesting Queations Asked and Answered in the House. (Prom Our Own Correspondent.) Ottawa, Fob. 25.���Col. Samm Hughes hau proposed a resolution declaring that a full partnership union of the Empire was desirable. The motion was brought In for the purpose of obtaining an expression of opinion from members who cared to discuss it, and was not pressed to a vote. Cesidis the mover who elo- puently supportd his motion, Mr, Smith of Wentworth, and Mr. Lake of Qu-Ap- pelle, sj.-oke strongly In favor of the proposition. Mr. Horden also supportotd the principle, though he held that (he closer union would be reached by gradual development rather Ihan by ony Immediate process. Sir Wilfrid Laurler declared that there was no occasion for action or change, as there was no grievance to be remedied. He contended further that no close organization was pesslble without free trade within the Empire, which view was opposed both by Mr. Borden and Col. Hughes. It Is in fact opposed to previous utterances of Sir Wilfrid himself. The only opposition speaker besides tlie premier was Mr. Dssvlin, member for Nicolet, lately Home Rule member for Oalway in the Imperial parliament. He of course vigorously opposed Imperialism in any form. The minister of public workB is still a man of mystery. A newspaper reporter has visited him in his health resort, and found Mr. Hyman actively enjoying himseir, riding, walking, swimming, attending horst; races and other entertainments. This has been going on while the premier has been Informing the house that Mr. Ilyman was not allowed even to read a telegram, lt comes out rurther that the formal resignation of the London seat received last week by the speaker purported to be witnessed by two men who live in London and have not left Canada since Mr. Hyman went away. Still further it aopears that wlille Sir Wilfrid has been unable to get any word from Mr. Hyman, the machine In l.cnodon has had sufficient Information to prepare for election. Mr. Lavergne, the Liberal member who has been read out of the party, gives notice of a question. He wants lo know what method the government will pursue to carry out the promise of Sen- ate reform, and whether the measure will be Introduced this session. The postmaster general's bill (o prevent strikts by Investigation has passed Its second reading. The minister him- se'.f has showed that the measure ls Inadequate by giving statistics to the effect that only one-fifth of the strikes of recent years had taken place In the classes cf Industries affected by the measure. The following appointments have been made: Mr. Druneau, M. P., lo be judge. A defeated Liberal member of the British Columbia legislature to be fair woge officer. John A. Chesley, former Conservative M. P.. who turned Liberal when he failed to obtain the party nomination, to be commercial agent In South Africa.
