THE AUSTRALIAN COMMONWEALTH The Australian commonwealth will liecomea reality on the first day of the 20th century. The event is to be celebrated in magnificent'stylo, throughout the federating colonies. 'Prominent officials will be invited from Groat .-.'Britain. Canada, India and other parts of the empire, as well as from oilier countries. The blov,-in:;-in of Uie ������ew commoiiwc-alth will bo an event ot peculiar interest to Canada, lt is as if the Dominion was about to find a new sister. ^Australia.ana Canada will have much in common as states in the new empire. They aro both continental in size and of limitless possll.iilit1.es. '���������They both possess the same population, and a strong Anglo-Saxon sentiment inspires the peoples of the two plates. Commonwealth Day will lie '���������uclebrniud in Canada with no little enthusiasm'.'-'tiad our; fellow-countrymen of llie Southern Seas may rest assured that the -Dominion will bo delighted to accept whatever invitations thoy may extend to her prominent officials to be present at the lilowlng- in, ceremonies. WHAT PRICE���������PATRIOTISM? Colonel Herchmer had been Commissioner or the North West Mounted police for several years. When the war broke out Colonel Herclimei- volunteered for service in South Africa and left for the front. Before Uls return to.-Canada his ..dismissal had been decided tiDOn and he was dismissed in due course. Different .-reasons were given at different timeB. Old age was one, ljut the colonel's physicial condition gives that the lie.'������������������'.. Insubordination ���������to-the-Jniperiai��������� authorities���������-was���������another, but the fact that he is still a lieutenant colonel in the imperial service gives that the lie. The real reason was that his place was wanted for a friend of "the party." IC the rolunteer -who goes to South Africa to fight for his Queen is to have his job given away by the Liberal government during his absence, then the Question arises���������'What/price Patriotism? A POOR DEFENCE There must be some ..satisfaction to friends of Hon. Clifford Sifton in do- fend Ine criticisms of his public acta with the theory* thai his ability has brought so much censure upon him. The history of Canada dooa not show that the men of greatest ability earn the severest and most persistent critlcslm. Does the ability of Clifford Sifton so far outclass the ability of .Sir Wilfrid Laurier. or Sir ��������� Richard Cartwright. that he invites more lios- ���������iility than his colleagues? It is al spoor compliment to a full dozen cab- . inet ministers, who would resent the ���������suggestion that they are inferior in ability to Hon. Clifford Sifton. The theory by which it is sought to -weaken criticism of the minister of the ���������interior is the creation of apologists. One of these days an attack on Hon. Mr. Dobcll will be explained on the plea that the overshadowing genius of tbe bottle nosed legislator inFpircs the uncomplimentary remarks of his ���������critics. '.Mliiisicrs Disperse���������But Make no Announcement aa to Elections��������� Nominations In Several Constituencies. After .holding several cabinet meetings the ministers are scattering for campaign work and council will not meet again for some days. The failure of the government to make, any announcement ii.:i to the cencrol elections has set politicians guessing and prophecies of autumn elections arc being revised to suit tho now conditions. Routine business, the ministers say. engaged their attention at the cabinet Hitting!*. That thero should be such nn accumulation of routine work staggers tbe credulity of Conservatives It Ih not unlikely that the all important question bus been given the fullest discussion. The ministers betaking themselves to far oft constliu- encloft for active work goes to dlcnte that the date ot the election Is not as uncertain would muke * believe. The point to an autumn contest. Dissolution cannot be so very awuy' when the printing of volcni' lists Is being'pushed with such feverish luislc. If the elections take place in October or November the lists of ls'.il) will be used fur Ontario, while for Ouebeo and Nova .Scotia Un.- lists of ���������'I'.'OU will serve. Vrlends or the government continue'to protest to the Justice depiirtiiH.nl al Ottawa thai the franchise ���������': act is unworkable lu certain of its provisions, or lack nt provisions, but Hon. David Mills and Cluirles A. Flf/piitricl-t lire confident of the soundness of the new law. Otic of the chief criticisms is. thai thero is no'specific provision tor legislation in the Dominion franchise act. and hence it cannot be carried out for the i>tir- lioses of a federal, election. The law ofllcers of the crown contend that a section of the act authorizes the preparation of new lists where the provincial lists are more than a voar old. nd gives the governor in council power to appoint tho necessary ofllcers and confer on them the necessary' powers. It is further asserted by the law ollieers that the spirit of tlio. Federal franchise act contemnlatcs the adoption of the provincial franchise in its widest sense, and that the courts would: interpret the intention of parliament as adopting ri, registered manhood franchise. Down at St. Hyacinthe lately Henri Bourassa and Domiuick Monet. M. P., attacked imperialism with all the venom thai characterized thoir utter- ant:OH in the Dominion parliament. Bourasa 'reiterated his old theory that speculators caused the war.* in South Africa, that Joe Chamberlain stood in with him. and that the governor general was sent here specially to foster the imperial spirit.; Bourassa blamed Sir Wilfrid Laurier. for not resisting the demand for a Canadian contingent. General Hutton. he insisted, exerted pressure on members of the militia, who bad the choice of going to war or losing thoir positions. Monet associated himself with Bourassa's ravings against ��������� : Imperialism. . The latter modified some of his rashest outbursts when he said, if the British fine were attacked 'on Canadian soil, '.���������French and Enelish would rise alike to defend it.-���������' even asalnst the tricolor. . Billy Slubbs, M. P. for Cardwell.ivho I tra.vels. undfir the ; name of an ���������independent Conservative, has not deceived Geo. Taylor.thc Conservative whip. A leter which Taylor has written to a friend: In '*. Card-well hasa iroocl deal .to justify' 11. for no man in Ottawa, with independent professions has been more of a partisan than Billy Stubbs. Mr. Taylor says: "JM'. Stubbs has voted Grit right alone durinc tho last four years, althouah he still poses as an independent, and was elected, as such bv Cardwell. Conservatives really regard him a.s a supporter of I ���������the I.iuii-ii-'i' government, and he showed this when he shirked, a vote on the . motion condemning the minister ot militia for the. emergency rations furnished the Canadian contingent, r hope tha Coservatives of Cardwell will not .again roake . the ��������� mistake of: sending such a man ; to Parliament." Sir Charles Tupper and Hon..*Georee E. Foster seem to be cutting a, wide swath in Nova Scotia. The audiences which have turned out. to hear them rival tho meetings which Sir Wilfrid Laurier recently addressed. Sir Charles sooke at Westville last week.* He attributed the erreat iron development in Nova Scotia to the national policy and bouiity-systemr-^-two-achievements-ofthe party which he leads. Mr. Foster praised the aims of labor organizations, largely represented at the meeting, and pointed out the mutual dependence of capital and labor. Premier Murray also delivered an address. He predicted a tremendous .development for Canada within the next 3$ years. Sir"Hibbert Tupper has been selected honorary president of the Conservative association of British Columbia. Chas. Wilson, Q. C��������� has been chosen as the leader .of the party in the province. These selections Were made at a convention in New Westminster, which also passed resolutions pledging the convention's support to Sir Charles Tupper and condemning the Laurier govermenf for not carrying out its leader's pledges regarding Chinese Immigration; for allowing notorious abuses of naturalization laws, and for neglecting to assist In fiwterlg thc fishing industry by-establishing necessary hatcheries. Jam-is l\ Whitney will accompany Sir CharlcH Tupper throughout hia Onta.rio tour. o Till: SYNOD OF THE DIOCESE U. Rev. own bishop in event of a vacancy being also recorded.

These were to tho Colonial and Contlneiili.il Church Society, the Church Missionary Society, the Society for the Promotion of Christian Knowledge, ami the various associations and woniens' auxiliaries, I'or the help in tlie work amongst both settlers and Indians in the diocese. Also the thanks of Iho synod wero given to Mr. Oldham for his work iih lay secretary of the synod, to the Rev.

Cubltt tor his work as usslstr.nl secretary, owing to Mr. Webb's ul'.srnce In eastern Canada, as well as for his constant labors for the diocese al all.'.limes. Messrs. Grogan and Winter wore reappointed audi tort!. A -motion was passed asking the executive committee to prepare a scheme of parochial taxation for the payment of tho ni'ccssary expenses of delegates to synod and members of the executive committee, so that the scheme might be accepted an 'a".voluntary..measure by the parishes before next synod when It will be submitted lo tbe synod for synodical action. In connection with the canon relating to clergy 'superannuation'; it was decided that tho parochial offertories for the fund should be taken up on the tweTfth Sunday after Trinity In each year at the services hold on that day. A motion was passed requesting eaeh rural deanery to take into consideration the raising of funds for the support of a clergyman to work with iho consent of the executive committee, within tlie limits of the deanery. At the afternoon session the canons on the election of a Bishop, and ou the appointment of an administrator wero passed, and tlie report of tho Indian missions adopted. This closed the business of tho present synod which was adjourned sine die. In the report of tlie first session wilh regard : to the appointment of the secretary "Rev. W." F.

The Chiueso languiiijii is a purely symbolic language. All other languages ore phonetic or alphabetical. Iu nil the phonetic languages thn sounds that arc heard in the spoken lungunne ure analyzed or split up into a few elementary sounds which by combination form words. To eacli ot these few elementary Hounds an arbitrary sign on paper in assigned, and these signs constitute tlio alphabet. Thus in nny European Innguuge and iu any other language except Chinese the sound of the voice in spouking is thc basin of the written language. They are nil phonetic. It the same sound is used to represec-nt two or more ideas, this makes no'.difference. The appropriate letters of the alphabet are used, und the writer relies upon the. neighboring words to prevent absurdity. The Chinese written language is totally different from this. It has no alphabet at nil nnd no upproneli to nn alphabet, but proceeds on n different basis, which will bo best, brought home to an American by a simple illustration: When traveling recently hi Belgium, 1 had oc- I casion to exnniine n railway lime table, t and there 1 found Unit certain railway stations where refreshments might b������ procured wore marked by a llttlo representation ot a wine cup. This is Chinese writing. What mode ot writing could be briefer or more to tho purpose or more iiilslnUnble! You see the drawing of a glass, it stnres you in the faee, and you know that, refreshments there await your exhausted friuno, The symbol expresses an Idea quite apart from the spoken utterance ot that Idea. in Maine NO MORE HUGGING Winnipeg, Sep. 15: The Republican plurality was 33,2*15.

Then in quick succession followed mutton, bolide pig hide, grilled fish rolled in sugar, and boiled fowl dipped in soy sdueo. Wo wore next treated to shark fins iu pickle, and eggs which had been buried in lime until tbey had become, black. I'celod water chestnuts. Ihc- roots of a kind of lotlis. cakes of s-tift" cranberry jolly, sliced boiled carrots and turnips completed llio XOtli course,- and were topped off with olives arranged; in pyramids..and. hold ,*in. place by .bamboo pills.

Winnipeg, Sep. -13.���������A - sad tragedy occurred " yesterday afternoon, - when Mrs. Hutton, wlfo of Dr. Hutton, the well known practitioner of this city, was found dead lying in her room. A revolver found by her side gave the story of her death: Mrs. Hutton had been in ven' poor health all summer, and her malady it Is believed. preyed on her mind to an extreme degree. She was alone In the house with the domestic when the death occurred. The servant did not hear the revolver shot, but being unable lo get into her mistress' room, or make her hear when she knocked, she ran for the neighbors and tho unfortunate lady was found in a dying condition. ASLEEP ON THE TRACK "A log jam is one of the most formidable problems we have to encount er in our lino of business," said a Mississippi lumberman at the Grune- wald yesterday. "We had several bipr ones on the Paseairoula and ils tributaries' this' year, and a tremendous jam some distance above Moss Point was dynamited only last week. A few dozen logs will become wodced for an instant in a narrow part of a. stream and in less time than it takes me to tell it hundreds of others will come swooping down and pack themselves in an intricate, close knit span, reaching from bank to .bank and as solid as a rock. The force they exert is something marvellous. During a recent jam in my section I saw a lot of logs plunges under the edge of the blockade, and a few second later they pushed their way up through the very middle of the pack, tossinc timbers aa big around as a mail's waist into the air like so many .toothpicks. The noise they made as they drove through the mass was simply deafening. It sounded as if the solid earth was being torn up by Its foundations. When the logs passed under the ,1am they were evidently caught In such a way as to still further obstruct the Imprisoned-streamr^and���������were-hurled up wards with all the irresistible force of millions of gallons of rushing water. "The breakin-j cf a Jam is a very ticklish operation, and seems to be largely a matter or instinct with old rivermen. The lues and angles of stra'n in such a blockade are so complicated that the best engineer ln the w.,ilo.ls apt to go wrong iri Indicating thf pm-per point of attack. A veteran lumberman, on the contrary, Will often take a long look at the mass and then point at the "key log." The key log Is the timber on ���������' which the straining centers aud when'it is blown out or pried- out the pack. In almost every instance will break of itself. I had an old fellow in my employ a few- years ago who could locate a key log nine times out of ten. He couldn't read or write, knew nothing about engineering, and was unable to explain how he arrived at his conclusions. He said it 'came kinder nach'ru!.'
