Adelu.de is not so well\nknown to visitors to Australia us it\nshould be, because it is to some extent\novershadowed by tiie greater size and\ncoiniiit'i't'iiil Importance of Sydney und\nMelbourne. Hut it is, perhaps, the\nmost naturally ottrootlVS city in Au*i-\ntraliu, und tin- most scientifically\nbuilt. The foresight ol ita originul\nfounder, Col. Light, has given umplu\nopportunities to as pust und present\nmunicipal rulers to curry out his in*\nteution of making A>MuiUo a gulden\ncity. Col, Light pluntied a city of\nstraight, wide streets, encircled by\npublic parks. To-day Adelaide ii a\ncity of broad straight streets and wide\nfootpaths, terminating in spacious ornamental squares in every block, and\ncompletely surrounded by a wide belt\nof purk lands, the property ol the\npeople for uil time.\nAdelaide's wealthier citizens have\nuuHtiutiugly enriched the beautiful\ncity parks with statues, kiuaks, ro-\ntuiulus, rookeries, and httVO froely subscribed towards the extension of the\ncity's gardens und pluutatiotis. The\nmayor is, however, even prouder ol\nthe diet that the poorer residents wim\nure unable to manifest their public\nspirit in this I.um, yet contrive to\nhelp on the public adornment of Ada-\nluide in then own wuy. \"While our\ncity is udorucd with parks, squares,\nplantations, and gardens on every\naide,\" hu said, \"yet visitors are invar-\nlubly struck witli llu* fuct that the\ncottages\u00E2\u0080\u0094many uf which ure the pro-\nparty oi the worker who lives in them\n\u00E2\u0080\u0094as well as the larger residences iu\nthe. metropolitan area, is surrounded\nhy handsome ftower*beds.\" Adelaide's\npublic reserves total about ii.ixH) acres.\nThe cily, with ii\u00C2\u00BB stoiiu public build*\niugri uud numerous Hue churches\u00E2\u0080\u0094\nthroughout Australia Adelaide il\nknown as the \"cily of churches\"\u00E2\u0080\u0094\nwide, clean sheets, and statue-dotted\nsquares, stands in the midst of its\npark*.

This hus received, and il\nreceiving, its proper share of atteutiou\nin Adelaide. The city's sewage system\nis practically perfect, and the street\ncleaning scientifically carried out. The\nCity Council recently acquired 4B6\nacres of land about six miles front\nthe city, and on this site a quarter\not a million is to be expended on a\nmunicipal ubuttoir. Municipal supervision also extends lo a rood and\nDrugs Act, and f'JO.OOO has just been\nexpended by the council on the most\ncomplete municipal baths In Australia.

He was in affluent circumstances when his sou\nwas born, and his wealth increased as\ntime went on.\n\"It was because he waa reared in\naffluent circumstances that so many\npeople contend that John Ruskin was\narrogant and dictatorial. Iu reality\nhe was quite the reverse. He wss\nnot only charming to, grown people, but he was beloved by all Uie\nchildren who ever knew him. His\nhaving had everything that money\ncould buy all his life made him a little difficult for some persons to understand. 1 never heard of his riding in\na bus but once iu his life If he didn't have his own carriage he hired\none.\n\"He didn't get the love of his life,\nhowever.

Iu\n1874 he told my father that while at\ncollege, when he waa less than 18, he\n1 became desperately in love with Adele\ni Clothlide Domecq, the daughter of his\nI father's Spanish partner in the wine\nbusiness. He said she had led him\non. and when he finally proposed she.\nlaughed at him and treated his love,\nwhich to him was most serious, a matter (or jest.\n\"My father told ne that even al\ntlmt late date, 197*1, Huskin spoke of\nher with bitterness, saying her flippant treatment of him had affected his\nwhole life. She was a beautiful, vivacious girl, and nobody wondered that\nhe lost his heart to her, -though it\nwould have been remarkable had ahe\nfancied such a serious young man as\nhe was at Uie time.\n\"There was nothing romantic about\nhia marriage except its tragic ending.\nHe had not recovered from his attack\ni of calf love when he met Euphemia\nChalmers Gray, a beautiful Scotch girl\nand the daughter of old friends of his\nparents.

While,\nchief engineer on construction of the\nline through Itrilisb Columbia,\nvisited Yule on Wednesday and in-\ns|H'cted the work there. On Thursday he came down the river to\nllnIK', accompanied by W. K.\nUwyer, divisional engineer, and\nspent the afternoon in Hoih' with\nL. N. Jenssen, divisional engineer.\nA visit wus made to the provincial\ngovernment bridge over the Coqui-\nliullu. Mr. White admired the\nsubstantial piers and remarked that\nhe might wish to secure the services\no( the same workmen when they ure\navailable. To the Review Mr.\nWhite said tlmt lie was quite satis-\ntied with the progress being made.\nHe could not fix s date (or the arrival ol the tracks at Hope, that\nstill depended upon tlic delivery of\nthe diamond at Mission. Nor\ncould he suite whether a freight\nservice would be inaugurated from\nthc coast eastward as tracks are laid.\nHe remarked: \"We have no place\nto ship from yet, except Port\nMaun.\" On the subject ot other\nlines Mr. Whits was leu reticent.\nHe hu been familiar with railway\nbuilding in British Columbia since\n1876,when he joined the engineering\nstall of the C. P.R. He knows all tbe\nmany routes tried then before the\nThoiiipaon-/ra-erroutewasiidopted\nHe is of opinion that a connecting\nline Irom Nicola to Hope by way o(\nthe Coquihalla will soon be built. But\nam ,1 tier road of .van greater importance, which lie (orstes, is south westerly Irom Fort George, across the\nChilcotin plains, snd down to Bute\nInlet. From there he sees no difficulty\n(or a car-terrv service across to Frederick Bay on Vancouver Island, and\na short line across to QuatsinoSnund,\none of the finest harbors nnd the\nnearest to the ports of ths Orient on\nthe whole Pacific coa.t of north\nAmerica.
