Poutau Prince, Nov. 29.âPresident Hippolyte haa at lait announced hia cabinet, nnd ao largely is tho norlh represented in it that there ia already much grumbling on tho part of tho south. Whether or not this expressed dis.utiafi'cticm ia to bo regarded as the initial p. nm of another revolution, timo alone will show, but the political atmosphere of the island is rife with vsgue rumors of trouble BOSTON'S 010 BLAZE. Boston, Mass., Nov. 28.-At 10:30 thu tire which stirted in two housea previously on tho southwest corner of Bedford and Kingston Btreets, had extended to Harrison avenuo, south to Roo Place, west to Chauncey, and along Kingston nearly to ll.iuim.... street, and, deapito the heavy raiu and the presenco of the entire tiro department, crossed Chauncey street and showu'i no signs of stopping until the Common waa reached. So rapid wai the spread of the firo irom tho big building occupied by Brown, Durrill & Co., to tho four-story brick building on the othor Bide of Bedford street, No, 0, occupied by Lambson & Hubhard, hatters, that throo engines snd a truck had to bo abandoned, nud thoy wui. Boon crushed by the falling walls of tho Durrill building. Kingston atreut was now red hot with flames, but thu firemen rushed past the hat factory, and whilo a hose was boing placed on, tho tireinon attached a Hue to thu uln-mi-*. 1 engine and drugged ib along King-it.m to Bedford street and up to Chauncey stroot. At thia moment tho attic of Taylor & Bros' hat and cap factory crtught firo, audit) exactly foity-livo minutes tho entiro block, Kingston, Bedford, Chauncey streets, and Roe Place, had been traversed by the flames, which crossed to Chauncey street, going straight toward Washington struct and threatening tho entire biiainosa section. Three engines were mussed at the intersection of Roe Plaqe, holding the firo ih check, until thu big freestone building of Williams & Co., on Chauncey street and Roe Plnco caught firo, when the firemen surrounded Roo Place to save, if possiblo, tho large granite block on the west side of Chauncey street. In spite of ull their efforts, however, the flames spread across tho itreet and the build* inga on that side wore soon ablaze, At 1:15 it looked as if the Ure would burn clear through to Washington street on ono side to Sumner, and nobody knew how fur rn Kingston stroet, as the efforts of the firemen to control the flames were futile, and the large streams of water thrown by the engines turned into vapor beforo reaching the roofs. Just about thii time, while a number of firemen wero at work in Chauncey itreet, the entire glass front of No. 72 Chauncey street, ocoupied by Wright Bros.', skins and wools, was blown out, probably by the hot air generated by the tire in the rear. The firemen were blown iu all directions. OTTAWA NOTES. Ottawa, Nov. 28,âM.

Lord Edward and Lady Alice Stanley left Ottawa for England Tueaday. The Ottawa Free Press says of the British Columbia canners now in that city, thnt they want tho earth.

A demand ot assignment waa served upnii Prevoat, ProvoBt & Co., wholesale hardware merchants, Montreal, at tho instance of the Banque do Pouplc. Tho liabilities arc 975,000.

Donald Ferguson, land commissioner, is charged with doing away with the daily cash book, io that weeks went by without a balance being struck, while the only record of the daily proceedings in existence is the receipt book stubs. The following resolutions, agreed to by those interested, explains the con* dition of the Laval University troubles: "It is unanimously resolved that the professors of the school of medicine aud surgery of Montreal, and those of the faculty of medicine of Laval, who itgnod the union aot, engage to take the Popo ss arbitrator of the difficulties that have up to now prevented the definite union ot these two schools, to abide by his decision."

The prinoe was witnessing the herding of some elephants, when one of them became unruly, and escaping from his driver, charged directly upon tho prince, tho wai standing apart from the rost. At thii juncture Oolonel Sanderson sprang forward, waving his arms, and darted between the elephant and the prince.

If Mr. Corbould and bis many anxious friends could not get their "tearful" eyes npon hb account I am not to blame. It's only another of their "disappointments."

Lisbon, Nov. 29,âA cable des patch from Rio De Janeiro says tint Dom Pedro was ill when he left Brazil, and was accompanied by physicians, DI6COURAOINO FOREIGN IMMIGRATION. London, Nov. 28.âThe bill now before thu French chamber of deputies regulating taxation contains a clause which has amused a great waste of popular incitement, though it has more pari-ans than opponents from its obvious character aa an anti-German measure and anti-Italian as well Thii clause pruposon the imposition of n poll and military tux upon every foreigner residing in France, and as though this were not enough to render France an undesirable residenco for foreigners, it goes to the length of minimising the i-ppnrtnnities for obtaining employment by imposing a tax upon every employer for each foreign employee in his service residing in France. Though many French employers have already refused to hire foreign labor- there are still a great many others who for one reason or another prefer them to Frenchmen, and these together with the foreign element whoso exclusion ia sought constitute the opposition to the FATAL 03L EXPLOSION. St. Petersburg, Nov. 28.âA ter* rifio explosion occurred last night in the Konstanlice petroleum pits at Bo* chun; fourteen workmen were instantly killed and four others seriously injured. The bodiea of the dead are horribly mangled. The explosion wai caused by lights coming into cont-ct with the gas from the pits. "jack the ripper1-catches it. London, Nor. 28.â-A man supposed to be "Jack the Ripper" was set upon by a crowd of women in the poorer quartur of Madrid this morning while he was in custody of the officers who were removing him from the jail to the court room, where he was to be arraigned on a chargo of having recently committed a murder under circumstances resembling those of tho Whitechapel murders in London. The crowd increased in numbers till it reached upwards of 600, mostly women, and it was only through the utmost exertions of thu governor of Madrid and a strong force of gendarmes who were summoned that the prisoner's life was saved. As it was, he was io leverely beaten that the services of a physician were necessary to restore him to a condition rendering the legal proceedings in his case possible. UrMlte Qearrj-. A granito quarry situated on Saanich inlet near Sayward'a mill is being opened up by the owner, Mr. J. E. Phillips, of View street Mr. Phillips has about five acres of land which ii rich in granito, and hasa force of a dozen men at work at preient. A wharf nearly fifty feet long bai been built out into doop wator for shipping purposes, and the only way to get the stono into the city ia by barges or tugs. Tho granite is of a luperior quality, some pieces being thirty feet in length. The cost of transporting it to the city will come to $1.00 per ton, which is a large item of expense.

A. soldiers of Now Westminster and the Rooney case. Some peoplo think it bard of the S. A, soldiers here for the way Rooney was pruseuutod. First of all, the worst enemy Hooney had was himself; there is not a soldier iu the N. W. corps who had the least bit of spite against him, and God forbid that there should, as all who attend our meetings know. He mado a practice of com* ing to the meetings, from all appear* onces, for nothing else but to disturb them, and when he came be seemed to havo a gang along with him who delight* ed iu Ins conduct, to back' him up dud help him along. Rooney has beeu pray* ed for, and coaxed and begged to conduct hiu__.ll properly. But the more kindness was shown him tbew-irso he would be. It has been given to understand that the army was afraid of him v.nA hts ' crowd, aB the reason why ho was dt. alt with so, Suoh ib a great mistake. The fact of the matter is that v_.t>.c>'alile people were getting disgusted wi.h the army,for allowing him to come to the meetings and for not keeping better order, and for not making an oxuin-.li- of some of the lads who delighted in making a disturbance. Tbe short and long of the mattor is that tbe S. A. soldiers of N. W. are not very badly frightened of the toughs of N. W., not half so much aa aome of them would have ns believe by their exnressirns. And we aro going to have order in the barracks, and tbo good authorities of N. W. are just as determined that there shall be order. Ood bless tbem. The soldiers of N. W. bave let somo of the lads have too much of their own way of late, but it ia wrong tbat we should encourage such conduct. 8ome of the amort lads of the streets have been very freo of late at cursing soldiers while passing them on tho streets, when the soldiers have been going along quietly about their business. But this is not going to be encouraged any longer by letting such pass unnoticed; and, for their own good, let it be understood that the first person or persons wbo does hereafter use insulting language to soldiers, on the streets or about the barracks, or anywhere else, will have to share tbo same fate as the unfortunate Rooney; and to the young man who used the abusive language to soldiers on Wednesday night, on his way to the Club saloon, It would bo bettor for you to cease such a habit. Do not do so again, for you are known. Lads, may God bless you all, do try and be decent; take a look at yourselves, acknowledge your wrongs through your words aod actions, and oe men in principle ss well as form. We do lore your souls and wonld liko to see all do well. If we didn't we wouldn't go out on the muddy atreeta to deliver God's love to you. And His message we will deliver on tho streets and in tne barracks, rain or shine. And wo do love to have the people come and listen. We appreciate good conduct, and more than that It la attainable.

Otiieh matters liavo engrossed the attention of our citizons of Iuto, to tho oxolusion of nny particular thought or discussion of the very important question ns to who shall oocupy tho seats around the civic board for the ensuing year. Whatever is to be done in tho way of selecting good men and truo for theso high and responsible functions must now be done quickly, with a vengeance, as Monday next is nomination dny for both mayor and aldermen. Last year, being tho first under the new charter, tho aldermen, nine in number, were eleoted for the whole city. For the ensuing yenr the elections will be by wards. Tho city is now divided into live wards, as follows, beginning at the west end: Ward No. 1, all that part of the city west of London street; No. 2, from London to Douglas street j No. 3, from Douglas to Clement; No. 4, from Clement to eastern limit of Queen's park * No. 5, from tho eastern limit of Queen's park to the eastern Um ts of the city, including Sapperton, annexed last winter. For the lirst four wards two aldermen each will be elected for 1890, Sapper <.â¢>, or ward 5, having no representâ¢ ion next year, as the property cot;,_ ised has not yet boen placed 1. thf t-ir nu- . ).-.., thai I- *: tun (suet: etc.) roll. Thi numbor for ui^ht nlder- assessment oouncil will insuring year, besides tlio mayor, one in the matter of aldermen during the present year. I. be seen that the old defini- ud nomcnulHcure of the wards : as St. Andrew's. St, CJeorge's, iins been abandoned, undor the n-'v . t, as well as thn principle of â '. representation of Mi. si*, vera] Although the i.ounoi'1 )_-iw*, ! iw, determined that twn >i : rn i _liall be tliu repre'-Hiit-ifciOn pii * rd for the enduing year, *h*.\ni iv*- pwer under tin* uhii-tei: ty in -â â â¢â¢ thenumber-tnthrt-e ; .n ijliiir. In ii vard 5 is enfi-ati liise.1 .wliti-l- â¢vili I.- done before auotnpi' general muiiiiipal election after the one im- pundiiig), the civic board will comprise the mayor and ten or fifteen aldermen, as the council may from timn to time by by-law provide. Although nomination day is so near at hand, very few names have beeu definitely announced as candidates. Mayor Townsend, in fact is the only person wbo has published a curd, stating that ho will stand for ro-election as the ..ity's chief magistrate, but only on tlie condition, as will be seen by iris announcement made to-day, that tho mnyor of Westminster shall receivo the salary provided for by the charter, the same as is dono iu the two otber principal cities of the pro- vine*. We do not blame the mayor for Iris resoii tion ; ho has had about six month's of tho mayoralty, and has not only given lm whole time for that period to the onerous and ever increasing duties of the office, but has spent considerable hard cash as well. The fact is, this city haa reached a stage when no man, unless he has an ample private income and unlimited capacity for sacrificing himself for tbe publio good, can afford to serve as mayor without tha same salary as the mayors of Victoria and Vancouver get, namely 62.000, which sum even has been found by thoso officials not to be adequate compensation for the time nnd money spent. Mayor Townsend comes out squarely on this question, and it is just as well for the people to face it in the same spirit. It is only a question of time when we shall have to, as Viotoria has already found it necessary to do, pay our aldermen a small compensation, if we expect good business men, and not adventurers, to consent to occupy these rapidly becoming onerous positions. For the current municipal year the work has been so exacting upon the time and attention of the aldermen that, it would appear, none of the old board aro at all anxious to stand for another term. It is obviously in tho interest of the city, however, that a number of the retiring counoil should take their seats on the new board, and not that it should be composed entirely of new men. There are several good men in the present counoil that we trust may bo prevailed upon to accept nomination for the ensuing year. For new al- dermen, the very best men ahould be put forward in tho different wards. This is a matter that very nearly concerns every ratepayer and citizen, The interests at stake are j early increasing with tho growth and increased importance in overy respect ot the city. We confidently appeal to the ratepayers and citizens of the royal oity, on behalf of themselves and their, homes, their best interests, material and moral, not to permit, through any laxity or remissness on their part, tbe forthcoming civio elections to go by default, but to put forward the very best material the pity affords atthe nominations on Monday. ^^ LortD Matjaulay bas giten ii as his opinion t$at with tbo advance of civilisation poetry necessarily declines, and it is likely that the samo thing may be said of purely national characteristics. Before tho age of steam and electricity, beforo cheap literature was to be had, old manners and customs, pretty superstitions and quaint doings passed naturally from generation to generation nlmost without variation. But, with the facility of locomotion and the moro easy association of men one with another, theso "unwritten traditions" fell upon sorry times, nnd as the practice of more extended travel increased, if only into the next county, men began to smile first of all, and then dared to laugh outright, at the old fashioned simplicity of their forefathers, Perhaps no country ever afforded stronger confirmation of these truths than bonnie Scotland, tlio national festival of wliich land is celebrated to-day. Referring to the subject under discussion, Lord Cockbum wrote: "The feolings und habits which hud prevailed at the union, and which had left so many picturesque peculiarities on the Scottish character, could not survivo the on- largod intercourse with England and tho world." Tho author of the "Lays of Ancient Homo" !did not hesitate to say that "Sir Walter Scott was but just in time to save the precious relics of tho minstrelsy of tho border." What Scott,Percy, Ritson, and others did for Scottish minstrelsy, Dean Ramsay performed for tho quaint customs, sayings, and huraoi*3 of the poople at large. A prose writer of evident sympathy with all that pertained to Scotland's "domestic nationality," his "Reminiscences" aro for all time a very precious storehouse from which every man of Caledonian extraction may draw in afresh the humors and peculiarities, the religious feelings or convivial manners, of his ancestry. It has frequently been asserted by writers who ought to have beon bolter reformed, that the Scottish mind is absolutely devoid of humor. What could possibly have been more humorous tban the Scotch servant's remark to his master whon the latter was so choked with passion as to be unable to spo.ik, "Eh, sir, maybe an aitli would relieve you," or again, when a Perthshire Laird told onu of his tenants that he purposed s.wl- !. the young laird abroad," ''What for?" asked the tenant. "Tos.-etlie world," was the reply. "But lnnd," came the ready objection, "will no tli.1 world st* _ip son was â .,â ',,.. it,,,., I-sprltl. liini," iirijslyi ,us*l. it frol Is ' 1 ut ..J sivlit. . tlmt ...1 bet ...... ten â â â¢'â¢ t 1 -li >-..,me quite n p. }*-.. d--.it. uv.-1 â p Iy * - " â 'le nf B'f't *,;ni. rt.',- v I, l'l. f â mul feoliuy -fi'id-- â¢**.-.ii_ hu-.u r*.-i tliu perpetuation, at least in a in>-a- suiv, of tb'* memi>rii-â¢ of thin-ii* i-s sentially Scotch.

NOTES AND C0MMENTS. Ooutrary to what might naturally be expected under the circumstances, tho admission of ladies to the university of New Brunswick is resulting in a gradual diminution of the male students, lt is consequently feared that the institution will soon become a high school for girls. It ean only bo said that the New Brunswick youth is wanting in gallantry or the New Brunswick beauty must bo wanting in charms.â-Ex. Children Cryfor Pitcher'_Castoria It is estimated that the fund raised for the relief of the Con* emaugh Valloy sufferers would hnvo given every man, woman and child |>200 apiece, and yet tho fact is that no poor familyâand many included from eight to ten personsâhas received more than 8300, while many lmve received less than $200. The dissatisfaction njnong tbo poorer classes is so great that a committee has been appointed by the food commission to investigate the manner of distribution. France is a protectionist country, and yet, strange to say the condition of its working classes is by no means what tho arguments of advocates of protection would load us to expect. A report recently issued by the French statistical bureau, dealing with tho strikes in the country during tho eleven years which onded with 1865, shows that tho most frequent causes of these disturbances were demands for an increase in wages, reductions of wages, and dissatisfaction with the conditions of labor. This appear, to be another case in which protection is open to the charge of false pretences. Dr. Frithjob Nanson, notes an exchange, will start for the north pole in a few days. He will land as far north in Greenland as possible and then push north with small boats and sledges. As travel by sledges is hotter in winter than summer, he has chosen the winter season for this bold push for the northern "hole in the ground.'' He will cut loose entirely from any base of supplies and will not undertake to establish relief stations, but will depend entirely upon what he can take with him or can find for food. No "rescuing parties" have yet been organized, and it is generally conceded that none will be needed, for if ho does not come back unaided there will be nothing to rescue. â lob printing of all kinds neatly dona ah the Columbian office, Prioei will lie found as low aa at nny other office In the province âAdo, Licensing Board* YTOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN THAT ll| a regular meeting of the Licensing Board for tbo city of New *W.stinln_tcr wilt be held In tbe CITY HAM. on Weil- iit-iluy.

Ouo of the charges was not pressed aud a month was knocked off, Tha barque Ullock ha3 got 400,000 feet nf her cargo aboard. Shu is expected to bo ready for sea in six dnys. Some lively hustling of lumber lins been done on thin cargo. Military matters seem to be slumbering in the city. Not ono drill has been put iu thi. season. Genoral Middle ton may have something to say about thui when he arrives. The polioe have their weather eye upon Home shady characters who have lately como to town, Thoy nre presumed to bu some of tho gang cleared out of Victoria lm0ly by the police, The way of the "dodger" is hard. The morning papar wriggled painfully through a column of rubbish thia morning in ordi-r to evade a "straight" expression on a subject itwould rather not touch. A brand new sidewalk is boing laid down across Columbia street between Begbie rind Douglas streets. There will now bo lliree in that block, but when the rain descends nnd tho muds oome they will nil bo needed. Members of Cunningham's election committee ahould not forget the meeting to-night, over Hall's bookstore. A full moeting of the committee is requested, ns matters of particular importance will bo discussed. Lumber is on the ground for a sidewalk along the south side of Agues st. from Douglas to Mary st. This wos the only gap in the side-walk and when it is tilled the street may ba considered finished, to all intents and purposes. Almost a week ago, says tho Colonist, a summons was issued charging u well known Mainlandor with cruelty to animals. The charge was laid by a young lady who witnessed tho recent polo matoh, and who was scandalized at what she called tho "inhumanity" of tht horsemen. Aa yet the police have been unable to serve the summons. m Mr. Frederick Villiflra' letter to thfl Times, explaining the accident to the' Amphion and correcting the statements of the Victoria morning paper, is boing largely copied iu the eastern press as an evidence of the famous cbrrespou â dent's invariable accuracy nnd reliability. Mr. Kubt. Barber, of U*y City, Midi., has been engaged by the I. O. O. F. of Now Westminster lodgo to instruct thom in tho "team work." Members of tlm lodgo and visiting brethren uro requested to meet at the hall every evening (bis week nt 8 o'clock. *tc Thero was a meeting of tho creditors of tho Queen's Hotel yesterday nt which nu satisfactory tindorstauding wus como to. Another mooting was held to-dny at 3 o'clock, but tho result was not mado public, It is thought tlmt Ihe creditors may assume tlio management. On thi* 23rd inst., tho wifo of Mr. David Briinscombo* of Steveston, Lulu Island, became tho happy mothor of a very handsome little daughter. Baby B museum bo in the first nrrivnl in tho new town of Stevoston, nud hor baby- fillip has been presented with a town lot in honor of hoi* claim to public recognition. The Melbourne st. improvements aro progressing at a rapid and satisfactory rnte. Tho work has beeu rendered more than ordinarily arduous on nccount uf the tough stumps and roots impeding thu way. Tho ravines nud hollows have all been filled up wilh young spruoe and fir trees, making a good solid foundation. There is nothing new concerning the now celebrnted "ordor." Fivo or six carloads of freight aro waiting in Tact-ma for transhipment to this point, ns it was expected thnt freight in transit would nob be included in the "order." If tho embargo is not removed, a Bteamer will bo sent over for it, ns tho Northern Pacific nro determined to keep freight moving, and secure their share oftho through trade as usual.â Colonist.

A curious optical illusion may be observed ou auy clear night here; when there is a heHvy bank of mist resting on the river mid the roomi is shining brightly, looking at tho picture from tho upper parts of the city tho view southward becomes liko n vast sea encircled by far awny hills. Onco indulge thu illusion aud .it is surprising how dillicult it ia to shake it off. As Artenius Ward remarked about hia countryâ"Our country's chuck full o' nat'ral cur'osities," But unfortunately thoy nro not appreciated ns they might be. _ I.}-tin.i *. .'mire Improvements. Tho board of works has at last gut tumid to that neglected spot beside tho Ciikdondiai) hotel on Lytton square. A good, substantial piece of work is being done, and all the hillocks of stiffened mud which made such an un* si-.htly appearance, huvo been cut down and levelled off. As au indication of the good reasons which tho proprietor of tho hotel had for complaining, it may be stated that, although there haa been littln or no rain lately, very considerable pool of wnter collected nt tho font of the cutting, m n few minutes after it wns made; showing plainly enough how badly needed surface drainage waa at Umt place. The big flume, of notorious memory and upon wliich tho skill of a modern Archimedes was expended in vain in try- 'ng to mako the water flow up it, now, like an orderly and peiisible flume, allows thu water to flow down iu a manner that must be eminently satisfactory to all ratepayers. â -.-,....â .Â»_. An Intrrestlne Event, , Chinese high life in thia eity is pleiis* antly perturbed by tho incident, announced elsewhere, of tho marriage of Won Alexander Oumyow to Yea Ch'an Sing Kai. Mr, Cumyow is well known to most of our renders, ns, perhaps, tho most intelligent,; olever nud best educated young Ohinitttian in the province, exceeding in his English education many y.ning men of Caucasian origin. Miss Yea Ch'an Sing Kai is understood to be . celestial bounty of "swoet sixteen" and the affair is strictly one nf the heart. The marriage rites of thoMethodist church were performed his morning, by Rtv. E Rnt-suu, of Vancouver, at tho residenco of the groom's father, on Dalian street. ThB Chineso ceremonies are stated to have been commenced several duys ago and to hu still in progress. Mr. Cumyow bas asked nnd obtained special pcnnis-iion from the mayor to make a big noiso with firecrackers to-night, in honor of tho hnppy occasion, so thnt tho residents near Dallas street needn't be alarmed if they hoar something "go off." Saint Andrew's Eve. Tho Caledonian and St, Andrew's Bocioty dinner, which takes place this ovening at the Queen's hotel at 8:30, will, without doubt, bo n red letter event in the annuls of tho society. It is understood that a number of Scots living outsido of the city will come in and participate in the festivities, as they havo always done in years gono by.

' Ouo of the worst phases uf the diabolical tralllc in -supplying whiskey to the Indians, developed this morning. Jennie, a Sticke.n Indian woman, wan missed n few days ago, the last seen of her wns on tho 21st inst., and a search was instituted yesterday by Mr. W. Moresby; tho result wns tho finding of Jennie's body Btripped to tho undergarment, lying exposed to the elements in a puddle of water in the bush about two miles down the North Arm. Near the body wero found four empty whiskey bottles, a man's hat nnd some fragments of clothing. Tho socks uud undergarment woro the only articles of dresa upon the body. Tho nppenrnnco of tho body indicated that lifo hud been extinct several days Mr. Moresby examined several witneseos aud elicited the following: Ralph Smith- orB, who resides near the place whero tho body was found, said thnt ontho evening of tho 21st a tail dark man without a hut, but having hia head bound around with a white handkerchief, came to his plaoe and asked witness if he could give him a bed for the night; ho suid ho had lost bis lint in tho bush. Ho nppe. red to bo intoxicated und witness tool, him to bo u French- Canadian. Witness also thought the man wns shamming drunkenness, so ho told him ho could not accomodate hiin. Tho latter then went away. Mr. Smithers saw Jennie ou tho 21st nnd she appeared to be slightly intoxicated. Dr. McGnigan, of Vancouver, was sent for and arrived by thu noun train and impanelled n jury. Foul play is very struugly suspected, and the polico fool protty certain that somo dark crime wna perpetrated iu tho secrecy of tho woods last Thursdny ovening. The iniquitous business uf supplying liquor to tho Indians is affording plonty of ghastly examples of its effects of lato. Those who aro well qualified to pass nn opinion sny that the laws relating to this branch of crime arc not noarly stringent enough, nnd sny that the only remedy is tho eat nnd plenty of it. The suspected man, whoso name is William Call, was up in tho police court this morning on a churge of supplying liquor to Indian Jennio. The case was remanded until to-morrow morning at 10 o'clock and tho prisoner wns released on Â§100. bail. HOME AGAIN. F.fl.Strickland Enjoys a Vino Tri-i'tv Hie Eâ¢__.>->We8tniinstcr Un Inr*,-tine It'll In Ontario. After a fivo-wceks business and pleasure trip to Toronto nnd the const, Mr, F. G. Strickland returned home hist Wednesday. Widle in Peterborough Mr. Strickland visited lho establishment pf Win. Hamilton & Co., where tbe maohlrtery, engines nud boilers for the Ross. McLaren Mill Co., nre being constructed. The engines will bo Bhippod next weok. There nro three of them and thoy are being put togothor at the same timo so as-to be shipped in one oflnsign- ment. Thoy are 200 horse power nnd with ouo exception, the largest in lho province. Tho Royal Cily Planing Mills aro having ouo built uf tho samo power. Tho boilers and most of tho motive power of tho machinery will bo finished next week. Tho saw mill machinery will be shipped in February. Needless to say, the outfit will be the mu*t complete on thu continent and ovory description of wood working machinery iB included iu tho order. Mr. Strickland took a run down to Niagara Falls with Mr. Beocher of the It. C. P. M. Co. and spout a pleasant timo thero The Royal City Mills aro adding more powor tu thoir establishment und some fine orders for machinery havu boen placed with eastern firms through the agents hero, Messrs. Strickland -ft Co. This linn has consignments coming from the cast destined for points ranging frum Alaska tu Mud Bay. While in Toronto Mr. Strickland witnessed an interesting exhibition of tho powers of tho Preston Aerial Truck; tho ono which porformed on this oocusion is fur the Victoria tiro department, and is now on the way to tho coast. The ladders are run out on the telescopic principle, nnd aro shut up to tho roof of the tallest building in uu astonishingly Bhoit s-n.ee of timo. Tho trial took placo in front of flip Toronto Bank, seventy-live foet in height; tho truck was brought along, the ladders shot up to the vory edgo of tho roof, and iu an incrodibly short; timo a man was right at tho top of tho ladder. Then tho ladder was swung round on tho pivot and the man hub gently lowered to tho ground and tho ladders run in, Tho truck Cos. So,000, and will no doubt bo much appreciated by the Victorians. It was made hy tho Toronto Rubber Oo. Thu Ruyal City Mills' agents in Montreal have lately got out something that will do incalculable good to ihis district nud the province generally, lt is in the form nf a neat littlo folder of card board, the reading matter on which is headed, "British Columbia toothpicks." Thu folder statea that the Roynl City Planing Mills aro pre* pared tu furnish timber of all dimensions, from 2x3 feet to 150 feet in length aud two feet square, Lumbermen around the big eastern cities express their astonishment at thoso lig- uros, nnd say thoy can't produco nny "toothpicks" of that stylo from their woods. Tho builders nro extremely pleased to hear of tall timber at such reasonable rate., viâ¢.; laid down in Toronto at n cheaper rate than Ontario timber can bo had for. Thero can bo no doubt that largo orders will ho booked in the mills here for Inrgo building timber. Everybody who got one of thoso cards was delighted with it and kept it as a curiosity. They caused quite a ripple of excitement in eastern lumber circles. Mr. Strickland's description of tho region north of Lake Superior in not very flattering to thnt pluce. A foot of snow was on the ground ns lie came through, and a more forsaken, barren wilderness he never looked upon. Them is a good deal of timber in the gullies and it ia s.id that there are great mineral deposits. On the plains about two feet of snow was lying, und it wna Hko coming back to summer again to got into British Columbia. COMMENDABLE.
