AUGUST l:!ih mil\nNo. 3:!\nGuests Rush from\nHotel\nThe Carlton, one of London's\nFashionable Resorts in\nFlames\nLondon, Aug. 9\u2014 .lamieson I*ee Win-\nney, the American actor, is believed\nto have perished tonight iu a tire\nwhich destroyed a portion of the\nCarlton hotel, where he was a guest.\nHe has not been seen since the fire,\nand a roll call of the hotel staff\nshows that none of its members are\nmissing.\nBODY FOUND\nAfter the dames had heen quenched\na charred body was found on the top\nfloor. It is believed to be that of the\nAmerican actor, Finney. The Carlton\nis one of London's most fashionable\nresorts, and about 2U0 p3rsons were\nstopping at the hotel when the lire\nbroke out, and while all had narrow\nescapes none except possibly Pinley\nsuffered any injury.\nTONS OP WATBR\nThe fire burned for two and a half\nhouss, hut was confined mainly to\nthat end of the hotel adjoining His\nMajesty's theatre and Hie fifth and\nsixth floors were gutted. Part of the\nroof also was destroyed. Only the\nhardest work hy the firemen saved\nthe hotel and theatre. Lines of hose\nwere hauled up the stairways and\ntons of water were poured into the\nrooms. The damage from water is\ngreater than that by fire. Most of\nthe interior of the building was thoroughly soaked. The manager says\nthe hotel will resume business immediately. The alarm was Bounded\nat 7 o*clock while most of the guests\nwere dressing for dinner.\nThe bluzu started in the elevator\nwire ashaft from the fusing of an electric wire and roared so threateningly that the people poured out into the streets leaving all their baggage. Men in their underclothes with\novercoats over them, women half\ndressed, their hair hanging down\ntheir backs, fled from the building.\nThe firemen arrived quickly and ran\nup the ladders and rescued a number\nof servants from the upper windows\nwho were shrieking to the excited\ncrowd below for help. They also cat-\nrled out two invalid guests. The\ngeneral alarm sent out was that the\n\"Carlton hotel iB well alight and\nlives are supposed to be in danger.\"\nThis brought a great force of apparatus from all the stations within a\nradius of three miles. The upper\nfloor where most of the damage by\nfire was done, was given over mostly\nto servant's quarters. Comparatively few of the guests lost their baggage. The salvage corps removed\ntrunks and bags and piled them in\nthe streets. Thousands of persons\non foot and in motor cars filled the\nadjoining streets and watched the\nfire. The Haymarket, across the\nstreet from the hotel were compelled\nto cancel its performance on account\nof the fire. His Majesty's theatre is\nclosed.\nIn the Storm Centre\nPremier McBride has said that Ontario and Quebec will be the storm\ncentre in the coming election.\nIn considering the present complexion of the different provinces, we are\nof the opinion that what Mr. McBride said is true. And if this is so,\nthe fight against reciptocity should\nbe fought there, and that the big\nguns of the opposition should be centered upon these provinces.\nThere is no use in scattering the\nConservative forces along the skirmishing line for the sake of accomplishing a possible gain of one or\ntwo constituencies, when if'\"we make\na (determined attack at the storm\ncentres. Quebec and Ontario, it iB\nmore than probable that some twenty to thirty new seats can be Becured.\nLet the Maritime provinces go as\nthey please, if they remain as they\nare we shall be pleased. If we gain\nseveral constituencies' so much the\nbetter.\nBrltith Columbia will give the Conservative party two additional members.\nManitoba is sure to remain true to\nConservatism.\nIn Saskatchewan and Alberta,\nwhich, from present reports will remain Liberal, let the local Conservatives put up the b.Tt light possible,\nand if we gain a seat or two we will\nsay well done. If these provinces belong to the \"grits\" let them have\nthem. We can get along without\nthem. The best Interests of the Dominion will not be sacrificed to the\nselfishness of a few narrow minded\npeople who cannot, see beyond the\nwire fence that surrounds their fields.\nMake the fight in Ontario and Quebec, The farmers and industrial\nworkers of this province can see their\ndaagcr, and will tight to the hitter\nend, for there is nothing for them in\nreciprocity, for it will retard the development and progress of the province. A good stiff fight here will\nsurely add at least 12 seats to the\nConservative opposition. A gain of\n12 seats will give Conservatives 60,\nand Liberals 22 seats, with two independents.\nIn Quebec the conditions are very\nsimilar, the manufacturing industries\nas well as the farming industry are\nopposed to reciprocity. They can see\nan influx of United States commodities that means disaster, the shutting down of manufacturing plants,\nthat cannot compete with the large\nplants^of the United States, for, taking the word of President Taft, as\ntrue: \"we sell more products to Canada than sho sells to us, and we\nshall sell her even more, after the\ntreaty goos into effect.\" Will Quebec\nBtand such n compact? With a strong\nfight ln Quebec where so many interests are affected the Conservatives\nshould gain at least 12 seats.\nThe present status of the House of\nCommons Is 133 Liberals, 85 Conservatives, and 5 Independents.\nA gain of 12 seats In Ontario, with\na gain of 12 in Quebec, with two\nmore sure seats In British Columbia\nwould put the Liberal party on the\nOpposition benches. ,\nOpposition Sure\nThe Conservatives are confident of\nsweeping the country. The party was\nnever ao optimistic and hopeful. It is\nsimply impossible for the Laurier\ngovernment to survive.\nIn the prairie provinces where there\nhas been so much talk that reciprocity would Bweep the country, the\nWinnipeg Free Press, the leading grit\norgan, admits that the best the Liberals can hope for is to hold their\nown.\nThe Conservatives are confident of\npiling up the biggest majority of\nseats in Ontario in its history; and\nthe outlook in Quebec could not be\nbetter. Laurier Ib up against it, and\nhe knows it, too.\nThere waB not a Liberal member in\nthe last house that would bet on tbe\nLiberals securing a single seat in this\nprovince, British Columbia, and in\nfact the Grits practically concede the\nprovince to the Conservatives.\nEverything points' to the slaughter\nof cabinet ministers, and tbey will be\nkept husy fighting for their lives.\nThe defeat of Wm. Templeman and\nPrank Oliver, unless they retire, is\npractically conceded, and Hon. Mr.\nFielding ia sure to have trouble to\nget elected in Nova Scotia, while\nPaterson, Graham, King aud Aylesworth don't hold a safe head in Ontario among them.\nThe Conservative members of parliament received the word of dissolution with great satisfaction. It was\njust what they had started to force\nthe government to do some time before, to submit the reciprocity t|U0S-\ntion to the people. It was evident\nthat the government broke up in a\npanic, nnd on the Friday previous io\ndissolution it wns not expected thnt\nthe house would Im dissolved on the\nfollowing day. They wanted to shut\noff the Oliver enquiry nnd some otber\nmatters and that accounts' for the\nStrike Will Oontinue\nExecutive Afraid of Secret\nBallot\nFernie, Aug. 7\u2014The executive board\nof District 18 is in session here today, but no authentic report of the\nvote cast last Friday has yet heen\nhanded out. This is because the official returns have not reached the\nsecretary's olllce. Enough is known,\nhowever, to make it certain that the\nproposition placed before tbe locals\nhas heen turned down hy a most decided majority.\nIt is expected that the vote will\nstand about nine to one against accepting tbe findings of the Concilia\ntion board as signed by Chairman\nGordon and Mr. Macleod.\nThe vote at Lethbridge was a surprise to the miners as well as the\npublic, it being supposed that the increase to contract miners recommended by the Gordon report to tbe\nminers at that place would have the\neffect of Inducing a large number to\nvote for the agreement the Corbin\nminers were working on Saturday,\nbut the effect of the return to work\nthere of a portion of the men seems\nto have had the opposite effect to\nwhat waB expected upon the other\nmining camps.\nThe district board will be In session\ntomorrow again upon regular business and it may be that the vote in\nthe district will reach here in time\nto be canvassed, and the result made\npublic before the board adjourns,\nIt is almost certain that the vote\nwill be adverse to the proposition us\nj presented, and in tbat case nebotia-\ntions upon another basis will probably be opened.\nCORBIN MINKS WORKING\nThe Corbin mines are still working\nand the men who have gone to work\niu that camp are doing so under thc\nterms as recommended by Chairman\nGordon, stripped of the Maclead provisos, aud it may be that this fact.\nwill be made the basis of negotiations for a general agreement for the\nwhole district.\nMiners Vote to be\nCompleted\nFertile, Aug. 8\u2014The executive board\nof the district adjourned this evening without canvassing the votes of\nthe locals which responded to the\ncall for a ballot last Friday upon\nthe report of Chairman Gordon as\nqualified by the Macleod riders.\nInstead, it was decided to issue another circular, urging those locals\nwhich refused to comply with the\nfirst request to hold an election on\nThursday, and the board adjourned\nto meet Priday to canvass all the\nvotes cast.\nPrairie Harvest in\n2 weeks\nWinnipeg, Aug. 9\u2014Lack of warmth\nand real steady sunshine is responsible for many late reports to the\neffect that it will be another two\nweeks before harvesting is general\nthroughout the west. Cutting has\ncommenced with'a vengeance in many\ndistricts but speculation still varies\nas to tbe probable average yield even\nwhere cutting is under way. In several districts it is claimed by crop\nspecialists that cutting will not commence for three weeks or possibly a\nmonth but the concensus of opinion\nis that the harvest will be in full\nBwing within a fortnight. Humors and\ndenials of damage to crops continue\nto flood the city, but all are equally\nlacking in authenticity. Another big\ninstalment of eastern harvesters are\nexpected within the next two days.\nFruit will be dumped\non Prairie\nHow the western railways of America view the prospects of increased\nfreight traffic in fruit, is very strikingly revealed in information which\nreached the parliament buildings today. The Oregon and Washington\nRailway and Navigation Co. has already cut rates hy over 25 per cent,\nfrom points in the western states to\npoints in the Canadian northwest\nThis reduction applies to fruit alone\nand affects from Walla Walla, Le\nGrande and North Yakima to Lethbridge. The former rate of $1 per\nhundred weight has been reduced to\n75 cents and from thc same points\nto Winnipeg where the former rate\nwas $1.12, It 1ms been reduced to 65\ncents. From Hood River to lethbridge, where the former rate was\n$1,124 it is now RO cents, and from\nHood River to Regina and Winnipeg\nwhere the rate used to be $1.25 the\nnew schedule is 81) cents.\nConservative Con-\nvention\nRousing Meeting Held\u2014Delegates\nAppointed Kor Nelson\nConvention\nThe Prince of Wales\nIn a letter to the Poetry Society,\ntbe King's private secretary writes:\n\"I am commanded to inform you\nthat His Majesty Is gratified to team\nthat the Poetry Society propose to\nbold a special meeting in commemoration of the investiture ot H.

I am, however, to explain to you that, beyond\nthe actual investiture at Carnarvon,\nthe King does not wish His Royal\nHighness to take ipart in any public\nceremony until he is of ag*-.

Ninety-three\npersons were drowned.\nThc ship sailed from here at three\no'clock this morning for Moroccan\nports.\nAn hour later, in a dense fog, she\ncollided with the British steamer Sil-\nverton, bound from Newport, England, for Tarnnto, Italy.\nThe crew of the latter rescued 27\nof the Emir's crew and passengers.\nThe Silverton later put in here with\nher starboard how stove iu and her\nforpeak full of water.\nThe Emir floated only a few min\nutes after the collision. Sixty-n:n\npassengers and 24 of the crew went\ndown with the ship. Twelve of the\ncrew and 15 passengers were save'..\nAll the passengers were French. The\nEmir was a vessel of 1291 tons an\nwas owned at Marseilles by the Don*\npaigne de Navigation Mixte.\nGrowing Interests\nin Farming Pursuits\nThe Greatest Eagerness is being shown by\nthe People today in what may now\nbe termed Our largest Industry\nAgriculture\nMr. Borden a busy Man\nMr. R. L. Borden Is kept busy\nthese days with his voluminous nnd\never Increasing correspondence and\nwith requests made upon him by\nmany prominent men of both parties\nwho desire to see him personally.\nThe press of business may prevent\nhim from attending the monster rally in West Toi onto today. He Ib\nvery anxious to attend, and will attend, If possible, but the work of\norganization at thc capital Is a\nheavy one, and both Mr. Borden and\nMr. Geo. H. Perley, chief whip, have\ntheir hands full. The former is specially anxious to clear the arrears of\nhis correspondence before taking tbe\nstump. It is understood that Mr.\nBorden will not only tour Ontario,\nand tbe Maritime provinces, but will\naddress meetings in Montreal, Quebec\nand the eastern townships.\nThe field of agriculture Ib broader\nthan almost any other subject of human intereat. It requires more\nknowledge, deeper \u00bbtudy, and wider\nexperience than practically any other\nsubject within tne realm of human\ninvestigation. It has until recent\nyears received the least attention\nfrom scientific investigators. While\nthe practice of agriculture goes back\nto the earliest beginnings of the race\nand really antedates our historical\nknowledge, still it is only within recent times that most of the scientific\nfacis regarding the subject bave been\ndiscovered. Earnest work on the\npart of scientists and others in all\nparts of the world Is now in progress ln order to learn something of\nthe operations of natural law as they\nare revealed In farm practice, and\nyet, notwithstanding all that has\nbeen and is being dene, there are\nstill many problems unsolved.\nIt Is not surprising, therefore that\nthe practical farmer finds himself fre-\nqueiitly face to face with problems\nwhich are beyond his ability to solve.\nAlmost every day during the growing\nseason he may be confronti-d by\nquestions tbat be cannot answer. It\nIs because of tbe fundamental importance of agriculture as a source of\nnatural wealth and thc difficulties involved In carrying out its suc<:c.inful\npractice that tbe governments nf all\nprovinces, states and nations in the\nmore highly civilized communities are\ntoday maintaining at public expense\nexperimental farms, laboratories and\nhighly-trained technical experts for\nthe specific object of helping ihe farmer to solve his problems and if possible to assist bim in answering thc\nquestions that occur to him In his\ndally work.\nThe most encouraging feature of\nCanadian agriculture is the use that\nthe best farmers are making of the\nvarious agencies established and\nmaintained for their heiMlt, but the\nbulletins thnt are published and distributed free by the Department-H of\nAgriculture nre not read as they\nshould he. Only a small percentage\nof the farmer^ of Canada ask for\nthem. The Instruction given at the\ncolleges of agriculture does not meet\nwith the sympathetic bearing that\none would expect. There is not that\nkeenness on the part of the people\nfor information that would indicate\nprogressiveness and enthusiasm in\nthe prosecution of their work. In\nBrief, the facilities for acquiring\nknowledge are not used aB they\nmight be by the majority of the people who need the information.\nTbe reason seems to be that there\nare so many things that are not understood and the amount of knowledge is so vast that the average man\ndoes not feel capable of attacking\nthe problem in order to get just exactly that kind of information he\nrequires. A good plan for the man\nwho would make a beginning is to\ndecide to specialize a little in some\nbranch of animal or field husbandry,\nand then secure and read bulletins\ndealing with that specialty. Take,\nfor example, potato growing. Nearly\nevery farmer grows a few potatoes\neach year, but very few make a specialty of the business, and the oonse*\nquence Is the average production is\nnot only low, but the quality is poor\nmaking the crop, Instead of one of\nthe most remunerative, perhaps one\nof the least productive. There is a\ngreat deal of excellent literature\navailable on the subject of potato\ngrowing, and any mau of ordinary\nIntelligence could easily, if he desired\nto do so, become more or less of a\nspecialist in this subject, and add\nmaterially to his annual revenue\ntherefrom. This is merely an example, but serves to lllusi rate how\nto go about acquiring agricultural\nknowledge.\nINTENSIVE CULTURE\nThere is a great deal of truth in\nthe statement that most farmers\nhave too much land. If they would\nput half their farms down to grass\nor dispose of them nud give their\nwhole time and attention to the\ncareful cultivation of what tbey had\nloft, In many InfltancoH, probably In\nthe majority of instances,, the profits from the year's labor would be\nmaterially Increased. Tbc handling\nof a large farm requires not only\nexpert knowledge, business management and executive ability of n high'\norder, but more capital than the ab-\nerage man has available. Home\nfarms are run at a profit on small\ncapitalization, otber farms with larg\ner available capital yield compara\ntively meagre returns. But it does\nnot seem to he a matter of acreag-\nor capital that controls or governs\nthe profits resulting from a givci.\nfarm. The investigations that have\nbeen made in this direction are un\n(millions and conclusive in fixing tlu\nsecret of success in almost every in\nstance on the kind of managemen\ngiven to the farm property. A farn.\nof fifty acres is often more profit\nable than one of a hundred acres.\nSometimes a well cultivated s:nal\nfarm yields double the profit of a\nlarge acreage extensively equipped.\nAb land Increases in value and be\ncomes less fertile it is important\nthat the cultivation should be In\ntenslfied, that the resources of tin?\nsoil should be conserved, and tbut\nthe wast*' and leakages should bl\ncurtailed, The labor problem ais.\nhas an Important bearing on the\nmethods of farm practice employed.\nThe yields per acre of various fain\ncrops can be enormously Increased bj\nbetter fertilization and better tiling*\nmethods. The llrst. cost is apjiroxt\nmntcly the same for a poor crop n\nfor a good one, while ilie advantages\nin results are altogether with tin-\nlatter. Intensive culture |n really tin\ncrying need of Canadian agriculture\ntoday, especially in the long-settled\nsections of older provinces.\nTHE LABOR PROBLEM.\nThere ought to be some better me\ntbod of distributing labor through\nout the country than exists today.\nAt the present time jn larger cities\nthere are a surfeit, of laborers seek\nIng employment. Au advertisement\nIn tbo local papers for unskilled help\nbrings at once forth or tifI.y nppli\ncants, There are largo numbers o'\nmen seeking employment, and witling\napparently tn do any kind of wort\nfor the small ost rate of pay. Th\"\ncost of living, Including rents, seems\nto be on the increase. What these\npeople are going to do during the\ncoming winter in order to feed their\nfamilies nnd to keep themselves supplied with sliolter and clothing Is\ndifficult to ascertain. At thc same\nA large number of Conservatives\n| from all parts of Oranbrook riding\nassembled at the Edison theatre on\nFriday evening for the purpose of\nelecting delegates to attend a fi invention to be held ut tbe city of\nNelson on August the 17th.\nBarrister Q, II.

Rollins, seconded\nhy Chester Staples that tbis convention express a vote of confidence in\nMr. A. S. Goodeve, M. p, for his excellent work in the House of Commons during tbe past two years.\ntime, as everyone knows, throughout\nthe rural districts and in the .smaller\ntowns and villages necessary work is\nat a standstill because there are not\nthe men available to do it. One reason why so many people desire to\nlive In the large ceotres of population is because they feel that they\nmust bave some form of amusement\nin the evenings. Their type of mind\nis different from that of the people\nwho prefer to live in tbe country.\nTbe rural people need more amusements; but city people have too\nmany. City people are shallow and\nlack that depth uud stability of\nharacter that country people possess,\nBut it seems that the country and\nity might get closer together in this\nmatter of handling thc labor population in some way that would be a\nbenefit to both. The problem iB not\nan easy one. The first step toward\nrelieving the congestion in tlie cities\nitnd supplying the need or the country, is for the governments to estab-\n,Ish distributing bureaus through\nwhich those in need of labor can\nnuke their requirements known und\ntbose who are hunting employment\ncan secure the opportunities desired.\nSuch a bureau, for example,, in tbe\n\u2022ity of Toronto would be of material\nadvantage to the whole province, and\nwould help large numbers of men nnd\nwomen who are now on tbe verge of\nstarvation, to find profitable and\nsuitable employment of a permanent\nand satisfactory character, as well\nas comfortable and self-respecting\niurroundingB, instead of tin- un.lesir-\nihle conditions under which at present they must live. The inflow of\nemigration is daily increasing the\nlerlousness of tbe problem, as large\nnumbers of the newcomers need assistance and advice to get themselves\nproperly located. Otherwise they\nitay in the cities and become a bur-\nlen to themselves and to the community in which they dwell. Many of\n'lie British immigrants who have\n\u2022ome to Cannda during the past\ntwelve months have failed to tmd em-\nloyment in the large centres, and\nhave gone home in disgust. Thei'- is\nabundance of work for all who come\n'o onr shores, lint some government\ntgency should be organized which\nvill help those who desire work to\nocure it without expense to them\nselves or without excessive cost to\nthose who need the labor.\nand that their object was to secure\nthe easy passage of borne rule. Walter Hume Legg, ex-chief secretary for\nIreland, challenged Mr. Asquith to\nreveal his conversations with King\nGeorge, but Winston Churchill, the\nhome secretary who wound up the\ndebate, declined to consider the request. The delay was characterized\nhy numerous interruptions, but there\nwas no disorder.\nCORRESPONDENCE MADE PUBLIC\nMr. Asquith taday told the house\nthat it was at the King's expressed\ndesire tbat he bad disclosed the communications which hud passed between them, so that there should be\nno mystery and no misunderstanding\nof a perfectly simple and correct\ntransaction. He stated that his intention to aak for guarantees in certain eventualities bad been communicated to King Edward first ou April\n14, 1910. Mr. Asquith concluded by\nmaintaining that thc only method of\ndealing with the situation was\nthrough the use of royal prerogative.\n\"I hold my office,\" he added, \"not\nonly ry the favor of the Crown, but\non behalf of the people, and 1 should\nbe guilty indeed, of treason, if at the\nsupreme moment of a great struggle\nI were to betray their trust.\"\nThey took advantage\nof King's inexperience\nLondon, Aug, 8- A vote nf censure\non the govornment for having obtain\ned from the King a pledge to create,\nIf necessary, siiltlcienl peers to pass\nthe veto bill was rejected hy the house\nof Commons tonight by a majority\nof I I'l.

An organisation\nwas consummated, to be known as\nthe British-Canadian association.

To ,\nthis Utter class our Master evidently\nreferred when He said to His footstep\nfollowers, \"Let your light so shine\nbefore men that they may see your j\ngood works aud glorify your Father i\nwhich- is in heaven\" (Matthew v, 16). j\nTu live righteously, soberly and god-1\nly in this present world to the extent I\nof one's ability in what everyone\nahould do\u2014uu less. To live a life of\nsacrifice\u2014to lay down our lives fur the\nbrethren, for the truth, in the service\nof the Lord, is another mailer, which\ni'ustiee does not require and which the \\\ntible nowhere enjoins upon mankind.\nIt is pointed out as a privilege to j\nthose who desire it, and glory, honor i\nmid immortality on the spirit plane i- !\nthe reward attached to this inviU- j\ntion or High Calling. It is the selection ol this special class nf cunsccrat- !\ned ones that is the particular order uf j\nthe Divine program at the present |\ntime.\nHaving clearly defined what we do ,\nnot mean to teach, let me now asaert\nthat, nevertheless, every sensible man j\nand woman, saintly or not, must feel |\na deep interest iu the welfare uml I\nmoral progress of the human family, |\nuf which he forms it part. All therefore, should rejoice in every move- ]\nment and endeavor working to even\ntemporary enlightenment, blessing and\nuplift amongst mankind. The many |\nbenevolent institutions uf the civilized\nWorld attest this general thought. My j\nonly conflict with these humanitarian\nefforts is that they do not approach\nthe subject of human betterment from\nwhat 1 consider to be the right standpoint. With nearly all of these efforts,\nmore or less distinctly stated, are\nthose God-dish ono ring and love-opposing Intimations of an alternative of\ntomient, either purgatorial or eternal.\nThis is the great blight which had .\nworked and is working incalculable\nharm\u2014driving intelligent minds into\nopposition to tiie true Uod and the Bi*\nble, Which is the revelation of His\nWisdom, Justice, Love and Power.\nThe Bible freely tells us that many '\nfeatures uf the Divine plan are uow\nhidden in mystery, hut the last book \\\nof the Bible, which prophetically pic\nlures the future, assures us tnat In\nGod's due time \"Tlie mystery shall\nbe finished, which He hath declared\nto His servants, the prophets\" (Reve<\nlalion x,7). The same book assures\nUS ttiat in God'l due tune, when the\nmystery is cleared, \"All nations shall\ncome and worship before Thee, for\nThy righteous acts havo been made\nmanifest\" (Revelation xv, 4\u00bb. We are\nnow living in tiie time when the \"mystery\" is ending and the righteous\ndealings of God, from the Scriptural\n\u25a0tandpotnt, may be clearly seen.\nBut these revelations are not meant\ntor the world in generol now, hut\nmerely for \"the elect,\" tiie \"sanctified\nin Christ Jesus.\" \"To you it is given\nto know the mysteries\"; to outsider*\nthese thing.-, are spoken In parables\nand dark sayings (Matthew xni, 11,\n13).

He farmed for nearly\nthree years, but he couldn't make\ngood. He sold out his belongings aud\nweut West. It is said he left the\ntown in debt, but it is on record that\nwith his first earnings in the West\nhe came back, called lus creditors together, and paid off every dollar he\nowed, after which he was giveu a\nsupper, cheers, and other things at\nthe Dominion Hotel in Acton.\nMr. Hugh Mann followed his sou to\nManitoba. Right at the outset, as he\nwas crossing the river at Cartwright,\nhis horse and wagon fell into the\nstream and were lost. And while his\nson climbed up steadily, from a small\ncontractor, teaming ties for the Canadian Pacific Railway to a railroad\nbuilder on his own account, the lather, now widowed, failed to prosper.\nine Manns, it seemed, were simply\nuot cut out for funning.\nSir Donald, since tbe dawn of his\ngreut prosperity, took the best of cure\nof hi-', father. About 21 years ago he\npurchased fifty acres of excellent land\nadjoining the G.T.R, property ut Acton, and installed the old gentleman\nthere in comfort. Tho latter could\nnot be happy except ou a farm. So\ncompetent help was employed and\nMr. Hugh Mann spent his declining\nyears in ease. One boast he made\nwas that he would go into Acton every\nduy of his life, and go he did, rain,\nstorm, or shine, driving or being\ndriven when he became feeble.\nSir Donald Mann has two brothers\nstill living, and three sisters. The\nbrothers are Mr. Allan Mann, a Saskatchewan farmer, and Mr. Alexander\nMann, the Winnipeg contractor,\nwhose firm, Mann and Mackenzie,\nare sometimes confused with the\ngreater one of Mackenzie and Maun.\nAnother brother, the late Hugh Mann,\njr., gave promise of being something\nof a celebrity. He invented a track\nluying machine which did wonderful\nwork, but he wus killed one day by\nhis invention.\nActon feels that it Is the most noted\nbirthplace of prominent railroaders\nI in the country, for it not only claims\n!

Llntern Sibley in Can*\nadian Century.\nSir Willium Van Home's figure\nlooms lurge upon the euuvas of his\n. time, uud how splendidly would it\nleuve its impress upon the records of\nI the Dominion if some day Sir Thomas\n. were to enter the realms of literature\nas Bos well to the Johnson of Sir William. There would be ull the roitiuuce\n! of the lifting of Cuuada from a colony\n'. tu a nation to tell: all the fairy-like\n| atory of the gigantic tasks and gigau-\nI tic achievement.- of the small group of\n, men who huve accomplished the won-\ni der thut is the Canadian Pacific: all\n, the delightfully human stories which\nI cluster round the name of Sir Wil*\ni ham, ull ths fart- uud foibles of the\n! singularly complex character of tlu*\n| one-time farm boy. Sir William,\nj Sir Thomas is probably too much\n! wrapped up in the cures of his high\n1 oflice even to think of undertaking\n| such u work. But it would, indeed, be\nj a splendid thing if somebody were to\n1 do it before the records and the memories perish; Bomebody with au inti-\n* mate knowledge, a lively humor, and\n; an incisive grasp of essentials, such\nas Sir Thomas has.\n\\ There are many picturesque acces-\n, sories to lighten the record of such a\nman as Sir William. I like that picture of him that you hear from the old\n! construction bosses, of how, when he\nwas out in- the wilderness with his\nunities of workmen from the Orient\nand the Occident, carrying to a suc-\n| cessful consummation thrusunds of\nI miles of what were regarded as engi-\n\u25a0 neeriug impossibilities\u2014how, in the\n\\ starlit nights, in the vastness of the\ni Itockies or the solitary wastes of the\nfiiains, there would flow nut upon the\nistcning air some wonderful'strain of\nj music\u2014the solace of a Chopin nocturne or the deeper melody of a Beethoven tone poem\u2014telling Indian and\nOrient and Furopeun ulike thut the\nBig Chief Van Home hud been pleased with the result of the day's struggle with primeval chaos. That music\n{ was of the Big Chief's own making;\nit came from his beloved violin.\nAnd, contrasting with this, there is\nthe other side of his nature\u2014the explosive wrath, the cataclysm of purest Anglo-Saxon, the fiery will of the\nman expressing itself in fiery terms,\n, and the sudden flash of humor that\ncame like mellow sunshine following\nupon the thunderstorm. It took a big\nfund of humor, of optimism, of sheer\n1 brute strength, and of magnetic, In-\n1 domitable will, to carry on u buttle\nsuch as he won ugainst forces and\n, discouragements sn vast as attended\nthe construction of the C.P.R. To\nhuve built the C.P.R. was a greater\nachievement than the building of any\n1 other railway hud ever been; a great-\n; er achievement than any future rail-\n. way on this continent can be. For he\nbuilt through an unknown, untried\nland; he had to be prophet as well\nas pioneer; seer as well as general.\nI The stories of the triumph, the humor, and the tragedy of this great\nI task may yet be gathered from the\n| memory of living men, and intimates\nI of Sir William, like the friend he calls\n' Tom Shnughnessy, have heard scores\nupon scores of such stories from 8ir\nWilliam's own lips.\nSuch stories, for instance, as he\ntells, ot how he was once lost amid\n! the interminable mountains of British\n. Columbia. How he wandered all day\nswallowed up in a vast landscape that\nstretched away in an endless sea of\nsnow and glacier-clad peaks, and how,\ntowards evening, down among the\ntrees on a mountain side, he espied\n' smoke. How he crawled on his hands\nand knees to tbe camp, fearing it\n, might be hostile Indians, uud how to\nthis big man, with his giant hunger,\n, there floated on the breeze the glorious smell of frying beef-steak, betokening the flesh puts of the white\nmnn\u2014us, indeed, it wus\u2014of his own\n: surveyors.\nThe secret of Van Home's success\n< is thut thc man was always bigger\nthun his tusk. You cun see how much\nbigger he is thun a mere railroad\ni builder if you should ever visit him\n| tn his home\u2014and especially if he\n1 should ever show you over his picture\n! galleries und art und curio collections.\nHe cun not only discuss art with the\nartist\u2014he is an artist himself.\nOne of the foremost of Canadian\n{ artists lins told me that it wus from\n1 such obiect lessons of Sir William's\n, that he learned to nignt a ruilroad as\n; a railroad should be painted.\nSir Willium is u student\u2014a deep,\nnot a superficial student \u2014 of every\nschool of urt, so much so that he can\n| usually tell by a glance ut a picture\n< by either a modern or un old master\nj the name of the man who painted it.\nAnd sometimes after u hard day's\n| work, he has gone home and sat up\nall uight and painted a picture ol\n! some scene that has vividly impress-\nI ed him during the day. As for sleep\n! \u2014well, that is only a habit, he says.\nIn literature, Sir William's taste\nruns to the works of men who leave\ntheir impress on their time.

Undoubt-\nedly one of the most cnteresting visi\ntors to our shores just now is Sir\nWilfrid Luurier, who has been de- ]\nscribed as \"The Simple Life Prime\nMinister.\" Although he possesses a j\nknighthood, he is at heart as demo-\ncratio as Lloyd-George himself. \\\n\"Titles and budges,\" he said on one |\noccasion, \"do not mnke the man, and j\nI myself would prefer to be called\nsimple Wiifr'd Laurier.\" Indeed,\nconsidering his high public position, j\nCanada's PrenYer is almost too j\nmodest, but hi3 sterling character\nand wonderful powers of oratory huve I\nwon him the affection of all classes.\nIt is interesting to note that, although Sir Wilfrid is the virtual\nruler of millions of English-speaking !\nmen and women, he himself was not j\nable to speak a word of English until j\nhe was nrgliteen. Up to tbut age he\ncould only talk in French, and hi\u00ab j\nfirst lessons in English were received\nfrom an old Scotch farmer, to whose\nhouse young Laurier used to go for\nfamily worship. Sir Wilfrid is very\nadvanced in all his ideas, und some\ntime ugo he publicly expressed him* j\nself as ba:ng in favor of woman'*\nsuffrage. \"Well,\" said a lady mem- j\nher of the audience, \"If you give us j\nthe vote, you will find that we shall j\nvote for you and the Liberal party.\" ,\n\"Oh, no doubt,\" replied Sir Wilfrid\nwith a knowing smile. \"You ard '\njust like the men. You want some-\nthing first, and when you have got\nit, you will show your gratitude\u2014if |\nyou don't forget it.\nAn Easy-Going Man\n\"He's dying very calmly,\" observed\nthe physician, as he fell tho pulse, of\nthe sufferer.\n\"Do like .Inhn,\" softly spoke the\nprospective widow; \"lie was ulwuys\nan easy-going man.\"\nWHEN SUMMER COMES\nGUARD YOUR BABY\nThe summer months nre the most\ndangerous of the year for the little\none.

There\nIs tbe state of Ohio. Until recently tbe\nmires of Ibe sonutors from Ohio bare\noccupied a conspicuous place ln tbe society of tbe capital, Mrs. Hanua aud\nairs. Foraker were leaders whose eras\nwill not soon he forgotten. Beuutor\nBurton bas uo wife, aud tbe wife of\ntbe late Senator Dick cared little for\n\u25a0oclot leadership. Every one Is wondering bow It wlll be with Mrs. Atles\nl'omerene, the wife of Senator Dick's\n\u25a0uccessor. Both Mr. and Mra, l'omerene are particularly charming persons, and, altbougb one can often say\nthis of senators' wives, It too frequently happens that the senators themselves are lacking In su voir falre.

ATLIl FOUraiENS,\nWho In culture and cleverness are so\nInucb above lbe average Money does\nnot count In Washington as It does In\nMew fork or In many other cities, and\nao the fact that the Pomerenes are not\nconspicuously wealthy does not ln ths\n\u25a0eaat Interfere with their social position.\n1 Mrs. Pomerene was Miss Mary\nBocklUB, daughter of a Canton (O.I\nmanufacturer. He also la an Obloan by\nbirth, tbe early part of his life having\nbeen spent on a farm ln Holmes county, wbere his father was a country\ndoctor. He was graduated from\nPrinceton wltb honors lu 1884 snd\nafter graduating In the Cincinnati\nLaw school ln 1886 settled down to\npractice bis profession ln Canton. Mr.\n\u25a0nd Mrs. Pomerene were married in\n1802, and the marriage baa been a\nvery happy one Mra. Pomerene la\nber buajiand'a comrade, bis chief\nfriend and adviser, and probably the\nfact that tbey bave no children haa\nenabled her to give more time and\nthought to his comfort. Clubs snd\n\u25a0Imllar attractions bave no charm for\nbim. He la essentially a domeatlc\nman, altbougb far frum a mollycoddle.\nWben tbe Pomereuea appear In society tbey appear together, and Washington Is learning this fact. It la\nquite obvious that Mrs. Pomerene admires her hushnud Immensely. When\n\u2022be heard of bis election to the senate\n\u25a0bs remarked to a friend:\nr -I always told Alice that any ons\nwbo led such sn upright life and possessed sucb a clear conscience aa hs\nwould surely reap a rich reward. Per-\nbsps this Is part of tbe reward.\"\nMrs. Pomerene Is a pretty woman In\ntb* early forties. Her busband Is said\nto be forty-seven.
