They\nalso returned a note for $1,500\ntendered them in settlement of\ntheir account, with the remark that\nthey did not discount notes, and\nthat evidently some mistake had\nbeen made in the figures as their\naccount was for $2,500 and not\n$1,500.\nAid. Elliott suggested that the\nmatter should be turned over to\nthe next council, but Aid. Ball\nconsidered it better that the present\ncouncil should take up the exciter\nquestion. He suggested that\nreply should be sent, togetherwith\na copy of Mr. Russell's report to\nthe Canadian Fairbanks Co., and\nthat- it should be stated-that the\ncouncil would agree to pay'as soon\nas the new exciter wap ijlaced,. in\nposition and workmg^'properly.\nThe, \u2022 following motion was put\nforward:\nThat the council, approve the\npayment of the balance due the\nCanadian Fairbanks Co., on account\nas soon as the 7J K.

Ball then stood up and remarked that while they were still a\nhappy family, it, was bis pleasant\nduty to read'a letter from the council to Mr. G. H. Dunn,, which. ran\nas follows'. A A. -;\n.Dear Mr. Diinn*:       '  7    ; _7\nThe City Council of 1909, upon retiring from office, desire to express\ntheir appreciation of your faithful and\nefficient services as City clerk.

He also paid a tribute\nto the press,, thanking them for the\nimpartial manner they had reported meetings, and for the courtesy\nthey hfid: shown the various\nmembers of the council.

The average convictions for drunkenness were about\nthree a month.    A\nAid. Bailey* caused some little\namusement by the remark that the\namount of drunkenness had fallen\noff owing to the increased taxation,\nwhich had -made the citizens too\npoor to buy liquor.\nThe city clerk stated that he had\nnot had time to get the electric\nlight accounts posted, and asked\nthat the council would pass a\nmotion allowing the usual discount\nif the accounts were paid within\nten days of the date they bore.\nThe motion was accordingly made\nand carried.\nAid. Cox reported upon having\nplaced Mrs. McGee jn nice comfortable quarters, and also stated that\nhe had seen the secretary of the\nChicken stealing was the order\nof the day some few weeks back,\nand now it seems as though the\nthieves were stealing the grain to\nfeed them with, several bags of\nwheat having been missed lately.\nSunday evening seems to be the\nfavorite time for these mean cusses\nto get around and do their work,\njust when they know the occupants\nhave gone to church and left, .their\nhouses unprotected. They broke\ninto the Methodist Parsonage last\nSunday, but did not succeed in\ngetting anything of much value.\nThey took out a cash box in.o the\nback yard and there forced off the\nlid, but the box fortunately contained nothing but papers (sermons\nperhaps?). It \"is up to the police\ndepartment to take vigorous measures to bring these pests to justice,\nand stop the annoying pilfering\nwhich is going on.\nThe deal between the government\nand the C. N.

He had been to the\nconvention at Victoria last year,\nat v\/hich meeting several good\nmeasures had been been .arranged\nto be placed before the Government Some of these suggestions\nhad already been carried out. He\nalso referred tb the experts who had\nbeen sent round lecturing to the\nfarmers on various subjects of interest.

He\nagreed that if the Institute could be\nmade of greater benefit to the\nfarmers more of them'would become members.\n\u25a0 Mr. Dolsen said he was fully in\nfavor of a series of- lectures or 4dis-\ncussions being held.-; \u2022 He himself\nlearned more from discussion with\nhis neighbors than by any other\nmeans, and considered that Mr.\nSpeers' suggestion was one which\nshould be taken up at once.\nMr. Sutherland said he would\nsuggest uiat ioccu men, wiui expert\nknowledge on certain subjects,\nshould be approached to give lectures on their special line. He\nhimself would be only too willing\nto give a lecture on \"Bees,\" as he\nhimself was an old apiarist, and\ncould possibly give a paper that\nwould be of interest to the members.\nIt was agreed to accept Mr. Sutherland to give a lecture on \" Bee\nCulture,\" this first lecture to take\nplace' on Feb. 16th. It was also\ndecided that other people should\nbe approached to give papers on\nother subjects.\nMr. Dilworth then mentioned\nthat it would be necessary for him\nto withdraw from his position as\npresident of the Institute as he was\nno longer a resident in the town:\nAlthough he was thus severing his\nconnection with the .Institute, he\nalways had and always would feel\nan interest in its work, and extend'\ned an invitation to anyone who\nwas in Victoria in that connection\nto look him up.\nThe work of appointing officers\nwas then taken up, the following\nbeing elected:\nPtesident^Mr. T.

The Burlington Gardens\nbranch of the Bank received from a client\n\u2014Mr. Ralli, of Park-lane\u2014\"a request for a\ncheque-book. Just before closing time a\nwell-dressed man drove up to the Bank in\na taxi-cab and presented a cheque for\n\u00a31,500, signed by the client in question.\nNo doubt being entertained at the time\nthat the signature was genuine, the money\nwas handed over to the visitor, there\nbeing sixteen \u00a350 notes, six \u00a3100 notes,\nand \u00a3100 in gold. Later the suspicion of\none of the head officials of the Bank was\naroused, and the supposed drawer of the\ncheque was commuicated with.

When it seemed that nothing could\nsave the lives of the men who were pinned\ndown'under this huge weight of wreckage;\nthe boy wriggled down through the small\ninterstices in the tangle of timber in the\ncollapsed trench, and for over two hours,\nwith the knowledge that at any moment he\nmight be crushed to death, he sawed and\nchiselled at the imprisoning beams.

Shelfprd, an engineer of the projected African' railroad from Uganda to\nLake Magadi, tells of a wonderful soda\nlake which' he discovered - after a most\ndifficult journey over ^ waterless country.\nShelford says: \"Lake Magadi 'is pic-\nturesquelyjsituated between vast mountains,\nthere were no signs of human life. We\nfound the water a few inches deep, covering a hard surface looking like a hard\nmarble. This is an immense deposit of\nsoda, which, when bored, was found to\nextend to a considerable depth, indicating\nan area of at least twenty square miles of\n\u2022olid soda.\nAftutaki   islanders  Catch   Them\nthe Tail With a Lasso.\nThe island of Aitutalci, one of the\nHervey group, iu the Pacific, is surrounded by islets underneath which\nare submarine caverr.s, the home of\nsharks: The natives classify them as\nlagoon sharks, which are quite ferocious at times ar-d spare nothing\nthey can seize, The lagoon shark,\nabout six feet long, is esteemed a\ndelicacy, a* the natives supply their-\nfeasts with .ae toothsome.dish by a\nremarkable  style of fishing.^\nArrived over the entrance to the.\nshark cave,- the fisherman leaves his\ncanoe to the care of his companions\nand dives to the bottom, carrying\nwith him a slipknot of strong cord.\nHe expects to find two' or three sharks\nat home, well satisfied and drowsy\nafter feeding in the lagoon, with their\ntails toward the entrance. Selecting\nthe largest, the diver adroitly adjusts\na noose over tlie tail, taking care that\nit hangs loosely. . If he has another\nnoose he secures a second shark.\nThe shark catcher now, with one\nbound on the white, sandy bottom,\nrises to the surface in orfler to assist\nhis friends in hauling up the fish.\nThe astonished sleepers beneath suddenly find themselves ascending tails\nfirst to the surface. Once inside the\ncanoe a smart blow from an axe between the eyes or on the nose ends\nthe career of the fish.\n. One of the most successful shark\ncatchers at Aitutaki was Reubena.\nLong practice had made him almost\namphibious. One morning he started\noff with two companions to one of the\nmore distant islets.\nOn entering it Eeubena found several sharks lazily resting themselves.\nIn a trice a slipknot was skillfully\npassed over the tail of the nearest-\nshark without exciting its ire. The\nshark at this critical juncture moved,\nso that there was not room enough\nfor Reubena to get out.\nHe gently stroked the side of the\nshark and succeeded in inducing it\nto move away so as to permit his\nexit. This operation is said to be very\nagreeable to the fish,, but if through\nnervousness the shark be stroked the\nwrong way its anger is sure to be ex-:\ncited and the diver's life would-be\nthe certain forfeit.\nReubena was making' his escape\nwhen, to his dismay, another large\nshark came back from feeding in the\nlagoon and blocked up the entrance\nwith his unwieldy body. To get out;\nnow was impossible, for even Reubena dared not stroke the head of the\nmonster.\nThe captive fisherman waited, hop;\ning the shark would go further in so;\nas to leave the opening free. The'\nhuge fish did not move. Reuberia's\nagony became intense. Seconds seemed to be hours. At last the shark\npassed on quietly into the interior,,\nand Reubena was barely able to get\nout of the cave and rise to the surface. His associates in the canoe,\nwho had become anxious for\u201ehis-\nsafety, seized him by the hair and\npulled him in, blood flowing from his\nears, eyes and nostrils. .\nA' .'\u25a0      Give Goldfish Shade.\nA friend was showing me her collection: of goldfish the other day with\ngreat pride.7 The;-tiny:.flsh ,yirere7dart\u00a3.'\ning about here and'tnere iii the i-Ieap'\nwater, and, then resting for awhile,\nthey foundJife very pleasant.-        A\nSome people do not seem to realize\nthat- it is positive cruelty to keep\nthese fish in an open vessel without\nany shade.\nFish have no lids to shield .their\n,-eyes, as we have, and so,cannot en-\n'dure a.bright light.'

Other\nmatters pertaining to the more\neffective carrying out of the annual\nexhibitions throughout the province\nwill be considered, and no\" doubt\nas a result of such a conference,\nmuch good will accrue to the advancement of agricultural fairs and\nexhibitions in British Columbia.\nOn Tuesday, February 1st, and\nthe following day, a meeting of the\nCentral Farmers' Institute will be\nheld, when all proposals, resolutions, and matters for important\nconsideration will be placed on the\nagenda, and finally dealt with during the Convention. This Institute\nis representative of all the Farmers'\nInstitutes throughout the province,\nand all matters pertaining to agriculture and the betterment of the\npresent condition of the farmer are\nlaid before the conference for consideration and decision. It is anticipated that many of the Institutes\nare furnishing their representative\ndelegates with proposals to submit\nto the convention, and which if\ncarried out, cannot but have the\nbest results for practical operation.\nOn Thursday, February 3rd, the\nAnnual Convention of the B.C.\nDairymen's Association will be\nheld, and on the following day the\nB. C. Stock Breeders' Association\nwill be in session. A good programme has been prepared for\nboth of these meeting, and many\ninteresting and valuable lectures\nwill be delivered by well-known\nauthorities on all matters pertaining\nto agriculture.\nNothing succeeds like success,\nand it is evident that the knowledge\ndisseminated throughout the proceedings of these gatherings cannot but have the best possible\nresults in the further advancement\nof the agricultural industry throughout British Columbia.\nThe C. P. R. Co. are issuing\nspecial excursion ticket at single\nrate, and the opportunity afforded\nthe people from near and far to\ncombine pleasure with business in\ncoming to Victoria during the convention is one not often offered\nthe public. It is to be hoped that\nmany will avail themselves of the\nchance to to hear some first-class\npractical addresses, and will also\nseize the opportunity to take part\nin the discussions which will follow.\nFull information and particulars\nof the conventions can be obtained\nfrom R. W. Hodson, Secretary-\nTreasurer, Department of Agriculture, Victoria, B. C.\nThe January \" Rod and Gun.\"\nWith the advent of another year, Rod\nand Gun in Canada, published by W. J.\nTaylor, of Woodstock, Ontario, is to the\nfront with a fine issue for January. Running through all their stories\u2014and there\nare many of them\u2014is that pleasant outdoor tone which always proves a healthy\ntonic, the plentiful supply of which, in\nstories and pictures, has given the magazine an assured position. Fishing and\nhunting experiences are interspersed with\ncamping stories, Indian legends, prospecting tales of the far Queen Charlotte islands,\nand strange happenings in the backwoods,\nali appealing in some way to sportsmen of\nvaried tastes and inclinations. In reading\nsuch delightful stories, evevy one redolent\nof the actual, one lives over and over\nagain some of one's own pleasures, thus\nobtaining a double measure from the outing which yielded so much pleasure at the\ntime. To begin the New Year well and\ncontinue throughout in the same good way\nthe companionship of Rod and Gun should\nbe secured. If he adopts this course the\nsportsman will have continual reminders\nthroughout the year of his own outings,\nand additions to the bright anticipations\nwith which he looks forward to future\njoys. Of these reminiscences and anticipations no one can rob him, but Rod and\nGun adds to both, and makes the year one\ncontinual pleasure, no part of which the\nsportsman will lose if he secures its companionship for the ensuing twelve months.\nSan Francisco Opera Co.\nThe San Franisco Opera Company which\ncomes to this City for two nights commencing Friday, January 21st, will present\nfor the first time here, \" The Girl from\nManila,\" a screamingly funny\\ comedy set\nto music, adapted from \" Turned up,\" a\nfarcical comedy by Mark Melrose and Dan\nYoung, the new stage Director of the\ncompany. \" The Girl from Manila \" has\nall the requirements necessary for a\nsuccessful even ng's entertainment.

Gouldson Russell, the juvenile\nlead, falls to James Stevens. Amy Leicester\nis a scream as a tearful widow. Teddy\nWebb as the undertaker, Hearsean Grave,\nwill prove irresistably funny.

It was\na great time. Mr. Stevens and Miss Young\nas husband and wife sang a very gem of a\nduet in the best possible manner. It was\nfull of charm; true to the spirit of the j\ngame and of that sort of art that gets an\naudience every time. Miss Young is \" a '\ndelightful dancer. As the much wronged\nwomen\u2014that is, wives, Misses Day and\nLeicester kept up the fun, prepared to\nfaint or weep at any moment when they\nthought of their poor husbands as drowned\nat mid-Atlantic, when at the same time\nthese errant gentlemen were in Scotland,\noverbusy with a little lady who made them\ncomprise themselves over a ten pound\nnote. This is the sort of thing the San\nFranciscans should give us all the time.\nFun, roaring fun, uncontrollable laughter,\nand the spirit of the season condensed\ninto an hour's musical comedy.\"\nANGLICAN\nSt. Michael and AH Angels' Church.\nHoly Communion, first and third Sundays in the\nmonth at 8 a.m.; second and fourth Sundays, after\nMorning Prayer.\nLitany on the first and third Sundays.\nMorning Prayer at 11  o'clock j   Evening Prayer at\n7:30.\nREV.

Guille,\nBurnaby. Four men, one woman, and a\nchild, who' were in the building at the\ntime, had an almost miraculous escape\nfrom death. The report of the explosion\nquickly brought a crowd, but it was evident that no effort could save the building\nfrom total destruction. Mr. Guille, who is\na French Canadian, and speaks only indifferent English, after many efforts managed to make the onlookers understand\nthat he had $2,000 in a trunk in the burning building, and appealed for volunteers\nto help him save his little fortune. At the\nrisk of their lives a number of men chop-\na hole in one of the walls and rescued the\nbox, but not before the fire had reached it.\nSome of the bills were charred, but as the\nnumbers are legible, there will be no difficulty in getting them redeemed.\nA Neto Gold Venture.\nThe Okanagan is popularly supposed to\nproduce fruit only, but this is a mistake.\nA recently formed company ia the Black\nHawk Mines, Ltd., incorporated for the\npurpose of developing a group of five\nmines known respectively as the Black\nHawk, Red Hawk, Night Hawk, Hawk,\nNed Cloud, which are staked upon leads\nbearing* very satisfactory- values in gold.\nFour leads altogether have been traced\nrunning east and west across these properties, all lying within 200 feet of each\nother and all giving fair returns in gold\n, -when subjected to tests. Two veins are of\ngreat size and the quartz, which is lively\nlooking material, when broken into shows\nconsiderable quantities of free gold. Considerable work has been done on two* of\nthe main veins, and the dump shows ore\nranging in value from $10 up to $215 in\nthe precious metal. The company just\norganized is a development company, and\nthe money obtained from the sale of the\nshares will be devoted to the actual development df the property. It is also moderately capitalized. One advantage which\nhas a great bearing upon development' is\nconvenience to the source of supplies, the\ntown of Armstrong being within eight\nmiles and Vernon within sixteen miles of\nthe mine. Skirting the' valley at the foot\nof the mountain upon which the claims\nlie is the Salmon Arm road, and with the\nopening of next season this will be connected up wifh the lower workings, and ii\nso desired, shipments of ore can be made\nto the Trail smelter for treatment.\nSaoed by the Motorman.\nA serious and probably fatal accident\nwas narrowly averted a few days ago on\nthe B. C. Electric Railway interurban line\nbetween New Westminster and Vancouver\nnear Edmonds station owing to the alert,\nness of Motorman William Keith. A New\nWestminster man named Fred Robertson\nwas \\lying on the track ane would have\nbeen run over and seriously injured, if not\ninstantly killed,, had not the motorman\nseen him. He at once applied the emergency brake. Owing to the slippery track\nthe car skidded forward until it struck\nRobertson's foot, breaking his ankle. 'According, to particulars furnished by the\nrailway men Robertson was returning from\nVancouver.

Rounding the curve immediately\nwest of Edmonds station he saw the man\nlying on the track where he had apparently fallen.\nWorth Ttoq Hindus.\nThat the experiment of bringing French\nCanadians from Quebec as mill workers is\na great success, is the declaration of the\nmanager of the Fraser River mills at New\nWestminster. A few months ago the\nmanagement imported 125 working men\nfrom Quebec. This resulted in the dis-\nplacemenfof 150 Hindus and 60 Chinese.\nThe Quebecer does the work of two Hindus. The company now proposes to import large numbers of French Canadians\nfor their lumber camps.\n\u2022\nNeto Steamboat for the Columbia\nLakes.\nCaptain Armstrong, steamboat proprietor\nof Golden, intends building a new steamer\nof improved design to serve the country\nbetween Golden and the Upper Coumbia\nLakes, thus serving the country as far as\nfar .as Canal Flat, 150 miles south of Golden.\nIt is stated that th Canadian Northern may\nbe interested in the boat, which would\nplace them in touch with the business of\nthe whole valley south of Golden through\ntheir branch from the Canoe river to that\npoint.\nPlea for Canadian Naog.\nAddressing the members of the Young\nMen's club at the Metropolitan church,\nRev. Dr. Chown, after referring to the\npresent election campaign in Grelt 'Britian\nas the struggle between 'privilege and\nconstitional democracy, made strong\nplea in favour of a Canadian navy. He\nopposed the giving of Dreadnoughts as not\nmeeting the necessities of the case. Canada,\nhe claimed, should have a navy of her\nown and should not surrender her autonomy to any power on earth. In conclusion\nD.r. Chown spoke of the question of com-\npulsory education as it exists in Manitoba\nto-day. The Roman Catholics, he said,\nheld the balance of power and were opposed to compulsory\" education, and that\nbeing so, no party dared make it a real\nfighting issue.\nChamberlain's Cough Remedy never disappoints those who use it for obstinate\ncoughs, colds and irritations of the throat\nand lungs. It stands unrivalled as * remedy\nfor .all throat and lung diseases. Sold by\nall druggists.\nPapal Marriage Decree.\nThe pope recently issued a decree granting important civil'and religious powers to\nRoman Catholic bishops throughout the\nworld. The main feature of the decree is\nits relation to the marriage question, which\nhas been a leading subject inthe church\nfor more than a year and second only to\nthe recent modernization, movement. The\ndecree issued gives the bishops the right\nto settle questions relating to the marriage\nof Catholics without reference to the pope.\nA year ago the pope forbade the marriage\nof Catholics to non -[Catholics except by\nCatholic priests.\nGooerntnent Arrange With C.N.R.\nNegotiations have been concluded between the Canadian Northern Railway and\nthe McBride government. Details will not\nbe made known until the bringing in of\nthe bill in the legislature. \"A clause in\nthe proposed contract provides thatthe\nconstruction of the line'in British Columbia\nmust begin within ninety days of the\npassage of the ratification measure bjr the\nprovincial legislature.

Fires in the cotton ware-\nouses came so regularly that the authorities became convince 1 Jhat the\nfires were purposely se_. A strict\nwatch was rewarded by tiie firemen\ncatching a fire in its incipiency and\nextinguishing it where it started.\nA search was then made for evidence, and the first thing discovered\nwas a small hole iu the wall. A few\nbricks had been taken out, but the\nopening was not large enough to admit a person. The next thing that\nturned.up was a cat. This solved the\nmystery of the hole in the wall, as\nwell as the manner of setting the fires.\nPuss still had attacked to her tail\nsome half-burned rags. The incendiary simply put the cat through the\nopening, lit the stuff tied to her tail,\nand the cat naturally ran wild through\nthe warehouse, carrying a trail of fire\nbehind her. A fire in a cotton warehouse set in this manner usually\nmeant a total loss and poor puss was\nburned, destroying the evidence.\nCertain \"firemakers\" have been\nknown to use a dog aa a firebug. First\ntlie dog was tied to the leg of a table\non which was placed a kerosene oil\nlamp. After leaving the room and\nclosing the door behind him, the fire-\nmaker called to the dog. Making\nevery effort to respond, the faithful\nanimal naturally pulled and tugged at\nthe cord attached to the table. If he\npulled hard enough he upset the table\nand threw the lamp on the floor and\nthe blaze was started.\nThe rat has been used to start\nfires, but often with disastrous consequences to the man who used the rat.\nA stable keeper who was troubled with\nrats got a grudge against the animals\nand thought it would be a fine thing\nto pour kerosene oil on a rat and light\nit. The rat promptly ran back to its\nnest in the stable, the most natural\nthing for it to do, and set fire to the\nstable, and shortly the stable keeper\nwas gazing on a pile of smoking rubbish as the result of his experiment.\nOf course everyone knows that rats\nand mice are regular firebugs. A certain scientist once made an experiment to find out if rats would gnaw\nmatches. For two weeks a rat was\nkept under watch and matches placed\nwith its food. It was not long before\nit was seen chewing the matches, and\nonce it got a taste of the phosphorus\nit began to like the matches, and in\nchewing them set them off.\nMice also like phosphorus, because\nit is sweet, and they will steal\nmatches to use them in building their\nnests. In one case in which a floor\nwas opened up a collection of heads\nof matches was found laid aside in a\ncorner for food, while the sticks had\nbeen used in building the nest. Birds\nhave also been responsible for fires,\nbut not actually causing them like\nthe rats and mice. The birds are fire-\nmakers through building their nests\nin places where sparks from a chimney, for instance, -fall in the straw and\ndry stuff used in building the nest.\n^Subtraction That Adds.\nThe air was sweet with the smell of\n. willow .wood, and the artificial limb\nmaker was adjusting a delicate metal\nspring in a superb leg.\n. \"This one of a pair of legs,\" he said,\n\"I am making for an aviator. They\nare longer legs than his own were.\nHiB height before the accident was\nonly - Ave feet six. Now, with these\nlegs, he will be five feet ten.\n\"Men all like to be tall. And short\nmen, when, as sometimes happens,\nthey lose both legs, gratify this universal desire for height by ordering\nwooden legs of an excessive length.\n\"Yes, paradoxical though it seems,\ncut a short man's legs off and he becomes taller.\"\u2014Exchange.\nThe Appreciative Subscriber.\nThis letter, which was received by a\nwestern editor, is an example of that\nspirit of getting something for nothing\nwhich animates many persons:\n\"Please send me a few copies of the\npaper which had the obituary and\nverses about the death of my child a\nweek.gr so ago; also publish the inclosed clipping about my niece's marriage.

Prior to that time the uni-\nversar rule was for the opposing\narmies to face each other and fight it\nout by sheer brute force and bulldog\ntenacity without any particular regard for scientific principles.\nA Startler.\nThomas K.

The true\nand  full  story   of  these   remarkable\nforgeries is almost unknown and is so\nextraordinary that it may well be told.\nIt was in  Edinburgh that this incomparable forger practiced his arts,\nand it was by an accident that be was\ntempted to embark on a career which,\nafter a spell of great success, involved\nhim in disaster.    One day the principal of an Edinburgh firm of lawyers\ntold one of his clerks to clear out several boxes full of old documents, the\naccumulation of many years.   Among\nthem were several documents and autographs the value of which the clerk\nwas quick to recognize, and he bad no\ndifficulty   in   finding   purchasers   for\nthem.   As the supply was limited and\nthe demand constantly  increasing it\noccurred to him to supplement the genuine  documents   with   others  of  his\nown manufacture, and as he developed\na remarkable skill in forging and had\nalready won the confidence of a large\nnumber of collectors he found it easy\nto dispose of as many forgeries as he\ncould produce at very profitable prices.\nMany of them were sold to collectors\nin different parts of the world, others\nwere disposed of by auction, and tbe\nremainder were pawned and sold as\nunredeemed pledges.   These forgeries\ncovered a very wide range and included autographs and letters by Cromwell, Mary, queen of Scots; James VL,\nPrince Charlie, John Knox, Rob Roy,\nBurns, Scott, Thackeray, Carlyle, Salisbury,   Gladstone,   Lord   Nelson   and\nmany other men of note as well as\nvast quantities of Jacobite correspondence, fc\nSo cleverly were the forgeries executed that the. largest purchaser of\nScott's letters was a gentleman who\nas a boy had carried most of the great\nauthor's manuscripts from Abbotsford\nto his Edinburgh publishers and was\nas familiar with Scott's handwriting\nas his own, and tbe head of tbe firm\nthat published Lord Byron's works\npurchased forty-seven letters purporting to be Lord Byron's for the. sum of\n\u00a3125 7s. 6d. A very large collection of\nthese manuscripts was purchased for\na sum of over \u00a34,000 and presented to\nthe Lenox library, New York, where\ntbey were for some time regarded with\nreverence as the chief treasure of the\nlibrary, and another collection was\npresented to the city of Edinburgh.\nAlthough these forgeries were poured on the market in such profusion, no\nsuspicion seems to have been aroused.\nThey -were accepted without question\nby the experts and found ready purchasers at large prices. Whether the\nforger's success made bim careless or\nwhether it was due to one of those remarkable oversights to which the most\nskillful criminals seem liable and\nwhich bring their career to a close, the\nforger was at last exposed through a\nmistake of which such a clever man\nshould scarcely have been capable.\nAmong the many forgeries he produced a poem signed by Robert Burns.\nIt was called \"The Poor Man's Prayer\" and opened with this stanza:\nAmidst tbe more Important toll* of state.\nThe counsels laboring In the patrlotlo\nsoil;\nThough Europe from thy vole* expect her\nfate,\nAnd thy keen glance extend from pole\nto pole.\nThis poftm, which consisted of nineteen verses, might well have escaped\ndetection with tbe rest but for the\nfact that a gentleman to whom tbe\npoem was shown discovered .the identical verses in the London -Magazine\nof 1766 in a poem addressed to the\nEarl of Chatham by one Simon Hodge,\nlaborer. i  .\nThus it appeared that if the verses\nwere actually written by Burns the\npoet must have opened them under\n-the pseudonym of Simon Hodge at tbe\nvery immature age of a poet of sevao\nyears. Suspicion once aroused, doubt\nwas at once cast on the hundreds of\nother documents which had emanated\nfrom the same source. The Lenox collection was submitted to the experts\nof the British museum and pronounced\n\u2022\u2022a worthless lot of forgeries,\" and collectors all the world over awoke to the\npainful discovery that their treasures\nof old manscrlpts Were scarcely worth\nthe paper they were written on. The\nforger's career was brought to a sudden termination. He was brought up\nfor trial and sentenced to a term of\nImprisonment thus closing n career of\n\u25a0forgery which for dnrlng. cleverness\nland success has perhaps never boon\n(equaled.\u2014New York Press.\nWANTED! j\n\u25a0\u2014\u25a0_-\u25a0\u2014BU-O-BHHQEBP\n2 Cents per word, first insertion and\n1 Cent per word each subsequent\ninsertion, minimum 25 Cents.\nFOR  SALE\u2014One  \"Peerless\"    200   egg\nincubator, used   only 4   times.
