Houre-f to 12 m., 1 to 5, anil 7 to 10 p.m., Fri' [CONTINUED FROM SUNDAY'S ISSUE.] Mr. Ralph Smith, continuing, said : The third bill brought in was perfectly useless and not worth as much to workingmen and miners, as perfect organization, which the miners could brine; about themselves. An organization oi their own oould do far more to bring about a settlement of a strike or other difficulty than the conciliation bill brought in by the Government. Working- men should therefore see tbat it is to their interest to band themselves together against the pieaent Government whose chief object iB to crush the workingmen and give everything to the capitalist. He hoped the workingmen would sweep down the present Government and give to us representatives who would recognize the wants of the work ingmen. The chairman then said that as the meeting was open to both sides, he would like to have someone come to the defence of the Government. Dr. Walkem's name being called, that gentleman mounted the rostrum amidst great applause. He said it was rather premature tor supporters of the Government to be called upon to defend the Government at such an early st age of the meeting. The Government had not aa yet been very severely attacked an I then fore there was nothing to defend. He would like a little later on to have an opportunity to say something in defence of the Government if a defence weie necessary. He was much pleabed wiih the niO'le of diction and style of delivery of Mr. Ralph Smith, but he did not think that anyone had gained much in' formation from that gentleman's address. So far as the E. k N. Ry. grant was concerned, Mr. Smith, had he been a resident of this country several years ago, would have known that it waa tbe workingmen themselves who gave the grant away, by electing Mr. Dunsmuir when thia very question waa fresh before the country. If workingmen then had taken such a keen interest as they pretend to do now, they oould have defeated Mr, Dunsmuir instead of electing him twice on these very issues. The electors knew then that they were placing Mr. Dunsmuir in a position where, if he wanted to do so, he could use his position to aecure his own ends and if they believed the E. k N. grant was wroug, they could have prevented him from doing so. At the time this grant was giveu away the road waa bound to be built and it was satisfactory to know that there was a local man to handle it, who had the best right to receive encouragement. The road waa demanded from the Government by the workingmen themselves. He understood that Mr. Kitchi n was pr sent to deal especially with the Slocan road; it was part of that gentleman's political stock in trade. But in anticipation of condemnatory remarks of other opposition speakers, he could assure the meetiug that.if Mr. Kitohen, or his frienda, believed there had been anything wrong about the transaction, they would have moved for a committee of inquiry in the Houae, aud would then have hud au opportunity, if the matter were as ihey would no doubt represent it to-night, to blacken the oharacter of the Government beyond redemption. Even if a majority of the Houae should whitewash them over, the evidence and information brought out in suoh an investigation, it the transaction bad been dishonestly carried out ou the part of the Government, would mean the defeat of the latter in every distriot iu the Province. The fact that these gentlemen had not pursued this course was the best reply to any chargea they might make. The doctor then aaid that in the last contest he stood as an Independent, and it was his intention, had he been elected, to support all good measures of the man who could secure a following strong enough to form a government with aome stability about it. Not so with the so-called Independents who were elected. They reminded him of the story of Sheridan's aon who had made up hia mind to go into politics. The young man informed hia father one day of his determination, Baying that he waa ooming out aa an Independent, and, if elected, would go the Houae with a label on his head "To Let." To thia the father replied: " Yea, my son; and add underneath * Unfurnished.' " (Cheers.) Thia waa the beat illustration he could give of the position of the Independents after the laat election. (Cheers.) Mr. Foster waB next asked to oome forward. He began by Baying he had been objected to on the ground of not being a resident of the district, but, for the benefit of those who were not possessed of all the facta, he would recall the circumstances which led to his election four years ago. The people here did not know who to get. Walkem wanted the nomination, but they would not have him. He would ref.r to the doctor's case later on. Since hia election he had not cast a vote in the Legislature that was not in the interest of the men who elected him. He admitted that it waa a big disadvantage to a distriot to have a non-resident representative, but it waa a far greater disadvantage to the representative, because he was not on the ground to refute the many slanderous reporta circulated againat him. It was difficult for him to travel about muoh, because he was a poor man, and members were not paid enough to enable them to ; devote time to going about. He had to make to the Government. A meeting was held in ; hia sessional indemnity pay his expenses Victoria wheu thia plan of procedure was while attending the HouBe, and it was agreed upon, when it waa also decid*d that I barely sufficient for this purpose. He was the Independents and Opposition were to I elected an Independent simply liecauae there wor'. together against the Government '. was no organized Opposition at the time um er separate nam. s.

Had the Opposition ferred .... ruption occurred aud Mr. Foster sat down. When the turmoil ceased, another gen* leni *n from the audience said, "Mr. Foster, previous to the last election you anid to me mat if the tori* with a label on the top uf hia head strike held out until after the election you "To Lot.." (L.u^liler.) He had not before could be elected. What principle actuated given the doctor credit for wanting to go to you then? Viotoria with a sign of thiB kind held out to Foster���I may have made such a remark the strongest party in the House, but had to you, but if I did ao, I have forgotten it. given him credit for Borne brains. However, A voice���Do you deny having anything to according to the doctor's own statement, he do with the strike? would have added the additional informa-1 Foster���I do. tion to the label, viz: "Unfurnished." i Another voice���You don't remember lota (Laughter and applause), He waa elected of things, Foster, but we do. on a platform having anti-Chinese planks j At this juncture, Foster glad to get out of and opposed to giving away public lands. | the position he found himself placed in, sat Since the last election there had been no-1 down aud the irrepressible Thomas Ki'chen thing doue in the way of legislation on j came to the reacue.

Up to the preseut there had beeu nothing done by the promoters of this scheme, except to get an extension of two years lime during which period 14,000,000 acres of land would be tied up. It had been contended that the working men endorsed the E. & N. grant by electing the late Mr. Dunsmuir. If they did not oppose Mr. Dunsmuir they were not to blame. They were influenced to support the Government iu order to eel, appropriations. This Government had done noihing for the working men except to introduce a bill t'iviug compenaatiou for injuries in cer'aiu cases. He then referred to the Croftcr.i' scheme, going over the old siory ,o ofieu told by Mr. Foster aud liia friends, and with which the readers of The Teleoram are already familiar. The Gov eminent buildings came in for the condem nation of Mr. Foster, who said that the cost had already reached $800,000 and would uot fall short of a million by the time they were completed. The Nakusp road he would leave to Mr. Kitoben to deal with, but would say here as he had said in committee of the House on the previous night: "If the membera of the Government were not interested in the transaction, their friends were." In ahort, he condemned every feature of the arrangement entered by the Government for the construction of the road. A voioe���Tell us how we are to get these roads built���how you would go about it? Foster���I believe the Government should deal with the lands themselves and build, equip and own the road, not pay a company for doing it. Continuing the speaker said that when Mr. Davie was in Nanaimo some time ago, he promised to do many things for this dis t.riei; as a matter of fact he made similar promises everywhere he went. The Province could uot get enough money to do one half the things Mr. Davie promised to do. Iu final appeal to the workingmen, he said the poverty and hardships of workingmen were not. due to natural causes but to hail legislation. Workingmen had the power to do it and they Bhould take in haud the matter of legislation themselves and not put it the hands of those who would roh ttiem. The land ought to be treated Tu audi a way that, the people could get onto it without paying too much If the representative*! whom they had sent to thu L*-gislatuic had not. been able to accomplish much, they* had opei oil the way to grtater tilings in the future; and he psople who elected them before .-houlil *io their part again io perfecting the work that they I.ad begun. The C.P.R. Co. had their men iu the Pious:; ready to do whatever was required of them when the occasion arose; the Family Compact, as the Dunsmuir's were called, had their representatives in tbe House. These comprised: Mr. Hunter, Mr. Pooley and Mr. Croft, all of whom were working in the interest of the E. & N. road, and now they want you to send down Mr. Bryden. Are you going to do it? The whole audience in one voice���\res! A Northlield man No; we will send Foster! Foster���N**; you will not get the chance. A voice���You know better than try it, Foster. Another voice���Mr. Foster, what value do you place on the E. k N. railway lands? Foster���Some of it is worth $1 au acre and some is wort h $25. Same questioner���Did Mr. Huuter uot offer you all the company's lands at "it) cents an aore? Foater���I will just explain that little incident to you Mr. Hunter jokingly offered me the company's lands at 50 cents au acre in the smoking room of the House one day. But it was like the devil when he took Chriatup upon an exceeding high mountain and showing Him the country about, said: All these lands will I give Thee if Thou wilt fall dowu and worship me. A voice���Y'ou compare yourself to Christ, then? You have an awful gall, Foster. Apparently ashamed of himself, Mr. Foster went on to state that a business proposition, aigned by the president, had never been presented to him, offering the lands at this price. Another citizen then called Mr. Foster to task for his action on the bill providing for certain exemptions in the case of wages of workingmen being garniaheed. Another voioe���You went down to Victoria as an Independent. Why did you change without first consulting your constituents before doinr so? Foster���We were compelled to oppose tho Government. Mr. Badoock���Mr. Foster says he has been honest. I say he has not. I would like to ask Mr. Foster if he has been honest. Foster���I will leave that question with the electors to decide. Badcock���Foster and company were eleot- ed aa Independents, but as soon as they went to Victoria they formed themselves into a third party, to follow one man, regardless of their pledgea and in oppoaition work. He began his speech by saying he was not going to enter into a tirade against the Government, and immediately proceeded to do so. As predicted by Dr. Walktm, he began wih the Nakusp aud Slocan road. He denied the doctor's statement that this subject was his stock-in-trade. Up till within three days of the nominatio. four years ago, he had uo intention of becoming a candidate and wheu he did make up his mind to do so, being a poor man, he had to borrow $200 in order to put up his deposit. He waB always opposed io the Government, although elected as an Independent. Notwithstanding this he went to Victoria prepared to support all good measures iui reduced but iutimated hat up to dale not a aingle act had emanated from the Q *vern- ment benches which he could support. In the next contest he would go before hia constituents as an out-and-out Oppositionist, In his opinion the policy of the Davie Gov- ment was: "Give us a railway aud we will give you all you want." R'fening to the Shuswap and 0;i*tiiiit,au ro.nl, he said the Province was now paying inter,st on $25,000 a mile. The Government, he olaimed, could find th*-* money, build railroads and lease them to lie same udvautage that a company could. Iu the caae of t he Nakusp road, the Government had entered into an agreement that no business man would think of making. He then trotted out a liundle of sessional papers and took up almost the entire ''alauoe of hia time in reading fium them. Finally, by way of a change, he aaid: "Dan McGil- livray, the contractor, to d him a fow days ago there was not a sii gle new rail being put into the Nakusp k Slocan road." He said that he had takeu out bills of quantities for the whole of the construction work on this road, and he could say with,, authority that $17,500 was an excessive price for the work. After reading .mm her half hour from sessional papers in reference to the Nakuap road, Mr. Thomas Keith, evidently thinking lie was not going to get a show, asked Kitcheu to cut it ahort. Mi. Kitchen look the hint, and said he would drop this subject and deal with ihe general policy nt the Government, Firs', he s>id, tho financial policy had btt-u a system **f living on borrowed money. For years past the Provinoe has hen running behind about $200 000 a year for ordinary' expenaea of th" country. The revenue for 1893 wns $200,000, and the salaries for civil government alone amounted to more than the total luxes of the Province. We wero now making up the difference between the actual taxes collected and the expenditure by the Dominion subsidy and from sources of revenue that were not permanent. If every member elected went- in for securing appropriations for his district, without showing the neoesslty for them, the couutry would go bankrupt. He did uot go to Victoria to grab for his constituents, but to get their juat dues. The Government borrowed $1,000 000 in 1887, and another $1,000,000 in 1891. Where had it been spent? The amount used for public works was a mere nothing. Farmers were crying out for roads all over the country. In niauy places they could not get to market with their produce for want of roads. There were plan's iu his constituency where farmers could not get out with an ox-team. Mr. Kitchen then went over the old ami stale matter of the Parliameut buildings, condemning everything in connection with them in the most sweeping manuer. Proceeding again, lie said the momoul anything came up in the Houae touching the rights of strung corporations, the majority were at once houded together againat himself and his friends. So long as men were sent to support these big companies, the poor man would get poorer aud the rich, richer. There were men in the Legislature who were all right in their homes and in business, but in the Home they had absolutely no independence of their own. It wrung his very life out to see these men coming out of the lobbies of the House to vote on a question in which some capitalist was interested, and who had just had them by the buttou-hole, to see their hands go in favor of a monopolist bill as soon aa the vote was called. Looking hard at the newspaper men present, i he redoubtable Thumaa said the press of the Province was practically coutrolled by the Government, and therefore the country could not get a fair sample of what occurs in the house from preaa reports. Tlie newspapers endeavored to make all the points they could in favor of the Government, but when a point was made by the Opposition they leave it out. In the approaching election there would be no room for Independents. Sides must be taken for and against the Government. The Redistribution Bill was not as fair a measure as it ought to be, but half a loaf was better than none. We would have to accept it in the meantime and try and get a better one He had voted again-u it beoause he believed the Government had devised (Continued Irom page one.) NANAIMO, B. C, TUESDAY, APRIL 10, 1894. (Continued on page two.) aome fair measure ot representation and atuck to it. He remembered Mr. Hunter's offer for the sale of the E. k N. railway lauds, t*ut did uot consider it a buaineBS proposition. He said a short time ago the Government pretended to be anxious to pu>-h i o a decision the mineral case of the E, k N. road, but were now delaying it. Mr. Kitchen was about to Bit down, when Mr. Bryden asked: "Is the Nakusp and Slocan road completed? Kitchen���No. Bryden���Does the contract say these second-hand rails you have said so much about, shall be used? Kitchen���No; it saya they may be used. Bryden���How much of the road is now constructed? Kitchen���About twenty miles. Bryden���What is the character of the country? Kitchen���It is a sort of canyon. Bryden���What is the character of the cuttiug? Kitchen���It is rotten rock. Bryden���You say you have taken out quantities? Kitchen���Yes. Bryden���What have you allowed per yard for cutting and roadbed? Kitchen���$1.50 per yard. Bryden���And this road is built along a precipitous rock mountain? Kitchen���Contractors tell me it ia the cheapest kind of work. Bryden���Why then have to make the many curves and grades you referred to in the contract and on which grounds you condemned the rails being used. Kitchen���To avoid cutting off points. Bryden���Then you say that this is easy construction work? (Laughter.) Is the work under Government supervision? Kitchen���It ia under the supervision of a C. P. R. engitieer. Bryden���Is there uot a Government engineer there as welt? Mr. Kitchen rather confused at this unexpected phase of affairs, admitted theie was, but practically tried to show that the Government had given him instruct ions to neglect the interest of the Province. Mr. Bryden���Well, from what you have told us Mr. Kitchen, we must come to the conclusion that the road is a most difficult and expensive one to construct, otherwise these curves would not be necessary. 1 have no desire to take the part of either the Governmrnt or Opposition, but I know that no company could build such a road except under great d (Acuities and at great expense. Do you consider $17,500 per mile an excessive price for the work? Kitchen ���Yus, from the information I have I do. Bryden���Who govc you that information? Kitchen���I will not give the names. If 1 were to mention the name of an ergiueer iu the employ of the C. P. R. or Government, they would lose their position. Bryden���You oannot then expect ua to accept the atatemeuia nt an irrespm silile man. (Chte.'s and Laughter.) Mr. Kitchen, I heard you aay on the train to-day that you would not give a cent for the lauds along the E. & N. toad; that it would take a fortune to clear t hem. Kitchen���Yes, I said if that was a fair sample I would uot take the land as a gift and attempt to clear it up. Bryden That was a very fairsample of the best of the company's lands where we weie at the time. It was not much of a give away then on the part of the Government! Kitchen-No, it was not. (Laughter and applause.) If the land is no good let the company give it back to the Government. Bryden���The company would be ouly too glad lo do so if it could get what the land cost back. Mr. Bryden then said he wished to correct a statement made by Mr. Foster which was that the Opposition were not permitted to introduce a measure which in any way affected the revenue of the Province. Mr. Foster Bhould have also atated that no private member could do so. Glad to recede back to the chair, Mr. Kitchen left the fray to brother McKenzie, heartily wishing no doubt, that he had remained in Victoria to aBsist brother "Winchester" Brown. Mr. McKenzie will be heard from in our next issue. $5 Reward It having come to the knowledge' of the publishers of THB DAILY TELEGRAM that copies of this journal are being repeatedly stolen from the doors of subscribers the above reward will be paid to any person or persons who will give information that will lead to the conviction of any one found stealing copies of THE DAILY TELEGRAM left at the residences and business places of our subscribers.

The City Fathers View the Approach to Gordon's Wharf. The regular meeting of the City Council took place laat evening. Present, Mayor Quennell, Aid. Wilks, Pleace, Nightingale, Dobeson, Churchill, Cocking and Morrison. The minutes of the previous meeting were read and adopted. Communications Were read from S. D, Pope inclosing cheque for Government grant I o schools for $1,401.40. From Stanley Craig, secretary of St. Andrew's Church, asking that Fitzwilliam and Robson atreeta be graded full width opposite the church. This letter was received and request' granted. From J. H Divi'lson saying he had asked for gride oppose <��� Ins property and had not, got it, that if reqne-t is not granted i*i two weeks he would take legal proceedings to obtnin it. From the Nanaimo Lacrnsse Club asking permission to use the lower portiou of the Fire Hall station, Deverill t-quara as a dressing room and for stores. Grunted. Accounts. Were received from: Water Works Co., $300; R. Dunlap, *$'20; R. Aikenhead,S&>.f>0; Free Press, $4; Has Company, $17.75; A. Haslam, $69.10; Wm. Langton, $3.45. On motion these accounts were referred to the Finance Committee. Aid. Nightingale said that a week ago last Saturday Mr. Aikenhead's team only worked six hours, and this should be considered by the Finance Committee. Aid. Cocking said this occurred before the new order was passed. Aid. Nightingale said a teamster should not be so dishonest as to ask for what he was not entitled to. Aid Wilks said teamsters had always been paid full time for Saturday befure and should be up to last Monday night. The account was allowed to stand. Aid. Nightingale, under the head of reports from committees, Baid that the Street Committee had interviewed Mr. Johnston in reference to the Front street grade opposite the approach to the wharf, and that the owners of the wharf wen* (dulling to raise the approoh two feet. He wmld like the matter settled hy the Counoil. Moved aud carried that the mit ter come up for discussion in its regular order The road foreman's report was read and on motion received and filed. Aid. Pleace said he had been asked by a number of friends to bring up the matter of the dog tax and said there was a strong feeling for a change. People who owned good dogs did uot object to the tax. In many cases those willing to pay the dog tax had their dogs stolen and put in pound by boys, while worthless curs were allowed to run at large. The tax collected last year was $132, which at the rate of $2 apiece amounted to 66 dogs. There were certainly more than that number in the city. The clerk said that last week twenty dogs were captured, eleven redeemed, one sold for 25 cents, and the balance destroyed Aid. Nightingale said that the system of gathering them in every few days would soon set the matter right. Aid. Pleaoe said he would like to know what was done in regard to the street at the approach to Coulson's wharf. His wor ���hip said it would come up later. Tenders. Tenders were opened for the sidewalk opposite the Salvation Army barracks as follows: Peter McLean, walk and stringers laid down oomplete, 70 cents per foot; railing, 30 cents per foot. Colville k Miller, walk and stringers 60 cents per foot; railing, 6 cents per foot. Geo, H. Frost, sidewalk, 43 cents per foot. Geo. A. Thompson, sidewalk, 68 centa per foot; railing, 5 cents per foot. A. Almstead, sidewalk, 60 cents per foot. On motion the tender of Geo. H. Frost, being the lowest, waa accepted. TenderB for the bell tower were received si followa- Geo. A. Thompaon, $235; F. H Strain, $300, Geo. H. Froat, $183; J. A Bitiancourt, $230. Moved by Aid. Nightingale, aeconded by Aid. Wilkea, that the tender be awarded to Geo. H. Froat. Carried. Aid. Cocking said the fire company would like to have a place provided in the town for drying hose. Other oitiea had a pro vision of thia kind, and the aame ahould be made here. He moved that the contractor be instructed to build a rack in the top of the tower for thia purpose. Aid. Pleace said tower hanging had been condemned by firemen everywhere, and ia detrimental to the hoae. The proper way tu to erect racks along the wall inaide. Aid. Dobeson agreed with Aid. Pleace. Aid. Pleaoe aaid the firemen ahould look after the matter t hemaelvea. Aid. Wilks said the firemen were now compelled to take the hoae out on the atreet. Aid. Dobeson moved, aeonnded by Aid. Morrison, that the matter of taking care of fire hoae be left in the handa of the fire wardens. Notices of Motion. Aid. Dobeson gave notice that at the next regular meeting of the Council he would move to have $500 set apart for gravelling Commercial and Front streets, the work to be done during the month of September. Aid. Pleace seconded the motion. Aid. Dobeson said he would like to see these streets properly graded and some larger gravel used. Aid. Wilks said other streets were being provided for and we should fix those already in hand first. Aid. Nightingale supported Aid. Wilka' idea. Aid. Cocking said he would favor the motion if it included Victoria Crescent and up to the Fire Hall. Aid. Dobeson said ic was his intention to include the principle, business streets us far as the Fire Hall. Motion carried. Alii. Nightingale filed a power of attorney from Arthur Wilson empowering him to move in his behalf that a four plank sidewalk be laid down from the rock to Albert street. A'd. Nightingale moved to set apart $1,500 for the improvement of Wallace street and $1,(100 for the improvement of Prideau street. Aid. Cocking Baid that this made $3,000 of an appropriation for three streets in the Middle Ward. What waa to become of the rest of the Btreets. There waa only $7,000 to be spent altogether, which would leave very little for the rest of the town. Theae items should be held over till later on. He was in favor of fixing up all tho streets but would like to see Commercial street put in good shspe firBt. Alii. Nightingale said he was surprised at Aid. Cocking, us thut gentleman told him a few days ago he would like to see Wallace street fixed up. If Wallace atreet was put in proper shape it would save Commercial street a great deal. Motion carried. AM. Nightingale also moved that a Bidewalk six feel, wide be laid on Front street from Bastion street to the approach to the wharf Carried. In reference to the approach to Gordon's wharf Aid Morrison asked if a fixed grade had been given. Aid. Nightingale said yes, and that it would bring the grade of the approach to the wharf uliout three feet, higher than the hand rail along the present approach. The owners of the wharf thought two feet higher than at present would answer the purpose. He thought the CoudcH should hold a special mi eting and go over the matter carefully and then reach u, decision. This was a matter that would have to stand for years to come. Aid. Pleace asked if a grado fixed by the Couucil wus binding. The Mayor thought it was. The Council should n**t put any umiecetuity obstue'es in the way of ihe wlir.if company, bui. ill uld loot after the Bitfe'y of the city. Ad. Dobeson Slid he would not say to make them come up lo the grade fixed by the Engineer but the line should be raised sufficient to make the junction of the approach to the whaif and ihe street safe. He would say four feet would answer the purpose. He thought that the Council might go over und look into the matter now. Aid. Pleace moved that an adjournment be m��de for half an hour to enable the Council to view the grades in question so that an intelligent decision might be arrived at. Upon reassembling, Aid. MorriBon moved that the Engineer's grade be adhered to. Aid. Nightingale thought the Council should not Tie too hard on the owners of the wharf. He thought, the Council should try and meet the owners of the wharf. Aid. Morrison said he meant to have it uu open question. Fill it up in the meantime to meet the necessity of the case and there if at a future time the council wanted to raise it they could do so. Aid. Dobesou said it wus not a question of the wharf people coming up to the grade but the city fixing the street line permanently and raising the grade so where it. ought to be. If this case ia allowed to go it would establish a precedent which might work to the city's disadvantage at some future time. Aid. Cocking said that some time ago he told Mr. Johnston twenty incheB would not be enough but thought two feet might be sufficient. Two feet higher would b�� an easier grade than the present but six feet would be imprac'icable. A mistake had ben made hy the owners of the wharf in building the wharf so low. However he would favor making the grade four feet higher than at prcient which would not be too much. Aid. Pleace was of the same view. Four feet added to the present road way would answer t he purpose. Aid. Wilks would a's'i favor four feet. Aid. Docking said before making a motion he would like to see the interests of tlu city secured. He would like to know whether we could muke the change legally or not. He would like tn have legal advice before taking final action and moved to thia effect. Aid. Nightingale said he did not think anything oould be gained by taking advice. The grado had already been given to Mr. Green. He waa still of the opinion that if the company raiaed the grade to the top of the hand rail, aay three feet, it would be sufficient. Aid. Morrison said he thought the Council should point out the grade and let the company do the best they could. If the top of the rail were given the Counoil would ohange the engineer's grade which was not desirable. Aid. Cocking said the company would not go ahead without the city fixing the grade. He thought four feet would meet the case. Aid. Dobeson moved, seconded by Aid. Cocking, that one foot be taken off the fixed grade. Aid. Nightingale moved in amendment that the top of the hand rail be fixed as the grade for the company. Aid. Cocking opposed Aid. Nightingale's motion. He would like to see it made aa eaay aa possible for the company but before changing this grade he would like to know the position the city would be placed in legally. Aid. Pleaoe thought it would be well to hold it over for a week, and in the meantime to get the engineer to make a report, giving the height of the wharf above low water mark, the height of the crown of tbe atreet above the wharf, and the height of the approaoh from the wharf to the street, ao aa to enable the Council to tell the exact incline. Aid. D.ibeaou aeconded Aid. Pleace'i motion and withdrew his own. In reference to Mr. Davidson's letter, Aid. Dobeaon moved that the matter be referred to the Street Committee with power to employ the. city engineer to fix the grade as aaked for. Aid. Wilka seconded the motion, whioh waa oarried. Aid. Cooking moved that the Street By- Law be confirmed. Carried. The Counoil then adjourned.

He stood leaning upon the tabfa and watched Tom out of the room. There was a craven malignity in every line of his sneering face. A longing at most irresistiBle gripped him to knodfe Tom down and kick him until the ho^ brutal deeire foe retaliation had beea glutted. "Stompsd, by Oodr be mnttnwrt. CHAPTER __L ��� Tbe next fortnight saw an Important change in Tom's life. He left the University building and took a cheaper suite of rooms on Irving place, one of the bivouacs of Bohemia. Delatole and he had parted in a silence that was sultry. His plunges in Wall street kept bim well supplied with money for tbe time being, and oi tbe fafctre he thought bat little. The secret had changed its aspect. He no longer cored to face it. It was now a monstrous fear maddening him with whispers of a hundred possibilities, prodding him, sending out false alarms and slowly chilling his assurance into an ever present premonition. Since the day Felix Dawson left him with the declaration, "Oh, yes, I'll have it back," he had not seen nor beard of him. This absolute withdrawal was more significant than threats. Suppose he had incontestable proof, after all? What if he lied when he said he had no copy? What if he conld produce witnesses to prove he had written the play? Would this man some day appear again, relentless Shis quiet w*w, and hurl the bomb- ell that would bring bis false life in ruins about his ears? His rupture with Delatole���that, too, made him uneasy. Oh, it whs a load from his heart to have told him the truth, to have seen the sullen surprise deepen into a stolid hatred in his horrid eyes. It was a relief, a balm, but it brought a danger in its wake. Suppose they met, these two who for different reasons would rejoice in his overthrow. Then indeed might he shudder. Delatole would follow tbe scent insatiably. He would come like a vulture to pick his bones. Even if proof were not possible he would so damn linn with suspicion, so besmear him with the trail of his innuendoes, so riddle him witb the darts of his aorid humor, his preatige would be lost forever. Delatole bad the power, the opportunity and tbe unswerving patience to write an eneojr down and oot of existence. These Saatfsm say in wait for him at some turning in the darkness beyond his vision. But there was something more terri lile���a voice that spoke to him as no living voice could. Mystic and personal, it came from his soul. Conscience, like the giant of fairy lore, sometimes awakens refreshed and hungry from a seven years' sleep. In this interval of inaction it was impossible for Tom to look buck on ths short Hfe he had so quickly und ootnpUtety degraded and feel no pang. The lieiirtbnrnlng, tbe anxiety, left their haggard marks upon his face. He grew thin, be became morose and melancholy. His world lost sight of hfm, but hidden in some corner of the crowded theater, driven there by a restless fascination, by the same resistless impulse which forces the murderer to feast his shrinking eyes upon Ids victim, he nightly watched the play that told him in every line he was a thief. His mghra were sleepless and filled witb fears���intolerable links between Molecular Life in Diamonds. It you think your polished diamond is a men aggregation of inanimate crystals you are away wrong. If you imagine that its components are devoid of orderly, oo- herent motion, you are equally mistaken. It has eome to pas* that we ore given to understand that diamonds are masses of active molecules. Inasmuch as every compact body is oomposed of multitudes of exceedingly small yet not indistinguishable molecules, it might be concluded that in a solid, at least, these particles would be clustered together in an indivisible mass. This theory as applied to diamonds is incorrect, and has been completely overthrown by the researches and experimentations of Sir Robert Ball, of Liverpool. The facts set forth by Ur. Ball with reference tn the structure of the diamond are fascinating. He asserts that were the sensibility of our eyes increased so as to make them a lew million times more powerful it would Im seen that the diamond atoms, which form the perfect gem when aggregated in sufficient myriads, am eaoh in a condition of rapid movement of the most complex description. Each moleoule would be seen swinging to and fro with the utmost violeuoe among tbe neighboring moltoules and quivering from the shocks it ssoeivss from encounters with other moleoule*, whioh oocur millions of times in eaoh second. The hardness and impenetrability so character iatio would at first sight seem to refute the supposition that it is no more than a'olns- ter of rapidly moving particles; bat' tbe well known impenetrability oi the germ arises from the (act that, when attempt is, made to bress a st^el point bM a stone, it fails, becanie the' rapidly moving molecules of the stone batter the metal with such (extraordinary vehemenee tbat they refuse to allow it to penetrate tm even to mark th* crystalloid Mufaoa. When glass is eut with a diamond the edge whioh seems to hard is smUt aom- posed of rapidly _of}ng stains, The glass whioh ii out is also merely a ** ��� iB that u thT'dfaffioM _ its ������feral particle*, by they sppetioOleor drive _nAa-pi��aBe wef. Would she see him? He hardly knew whether he most longed for or dreaded ber glance. How would she look if she knew the truth about the play she watched so earnestly? What wonld her eyes say then? A coldness began to steal over bim, a desire to shriek. His head was whirling. Was he going mad? This dull, inarticulate grief preying upon bis haeet nh, if he oould sigh it awayl Soto VlrginUt in a lower bom. And all the while in the rosy gloom thrown upward by the footlights Virginia's face shone liko a star. And all the whilo the old passion grew with tbe seconds, no longer single and pure, the ideal love of a man's youth, but a reckless, dominant craving for her, the fruit of paat experience and present despair. He remembered nothing more until be stood before her, their hands looked. Oh,.that moment! He was dimly conscious of a strange man with Virginia pnd of an introduction to him, but he seemed an interminable distance away through a maddening red blur. The crowd, the music, too, Jiad receded, and Virginia's upraised eyes, her warm, confiding palm, were the only realities. What he said to ber be never knew- somethjug muttered, incoherent���word* seemed of such little value then beside the longing to crnsh her to his sore heart Then for a moment he looked away, his eyes drawn upward as by a spelL A cry wavered from his paling lips; he reeled backward and flung her hand Irom him. Above, among the sea of faces, was Felix Dawson's, the light from his eyes shooting through Tom's guilty heart like a vein of electricity. To his blinded, maddened senses the face seemed distorted by a terrible menace. His doom was written there. In a moment he was fleeing from it, pushing through the waiting matStm tn' the stales as a man breasts a aea. CHAPTER _TV. Virginia, at the door of tbe bast, stood facing the crowd where Tom had disappeared. A shudder shook her from head to foot. She still seemed looking into a pair of tormented blue eyes alight with a shifting flame; the choked, broken accents of a familiar voice wei _ in her ears. And yeV-oh, could* it be?���was it really Tom who had stoqtj tjiprp? Tbat gaunt figure and sickly face, the di*=��o- lute eyes and coarsened month v c like a travesty on the memory ohseishsd so tenderly. The pity of it I Her raised arm drooped againat _�� curtain in the shadow, and she laid her face upon it, closing her eyes and letting the slow, heavy tears fall as they would. A love born of long association ia not an easy thing to kilL Virginia's died hard in that piteous moment, but it died surely. She scarcely knew it herself, sc keen, so deep was the rash ol compas- sion, almost maternal in its intensity, that took its place. But gradually as tbe tears fad and tbr throes of the awakening continued shi saw the truth. The passion that had held her to the past was like a wornout coil Whose strand's in the weak places she had persistently kept mended until Tom's own hand had cut it tonight, leaving in her grasp only a handful of worn- out shreds. The old feeling was like something done with and put away forever. Weak and morbid natures cling to a sentiment when the ideal that projected it is lost. A proud and virile heart leaps exultant, free. But there was none of the triumph of freedom tempering the first acuteness of Virginia's awakening. She was thinking of Tom aa she had first seen him years ago. He h::d Kfood on the stops of the chapel that April uiorhing when the square was a glory of white Clouds and young, rustling leaves, The stiff student cap threw a pointed shadow across his glowing eyes. His gown was pushed roughly back, one hand deep in his pocket as he laugh nl aloud and snapped his fingers at a little terrier rolling on the grass, mad in the caress of tbe sun- hght The then and nowt Ages had rolled between that moment and this one.

How composed it was, how earnest and gentle I "Von know wbo that was," she sajd: "you've heard father revile him often enough."

After the regular buaineaa of the weekly meeting of the Y.P.S.C.E. had been completed last night at the Presbyterian churoh there followed a debate on, "Resolved that devotion to fashion ia a worse evil than the tobacco habit." Three membera of the sooiety, viz.: Messrs. Geo. Hay, J. R. Wray and J. Galloway, argued that "fashion, using the word ih its widest meaning and including many "habits,'' was the worse evil. Three members of the Y.M.C.A. debating club, viz., Messrs. Allison, Anderson and Freure argued that the tobacco habit was the lesser evil, inferring that the meaning of the word "fashion" meant devotion to dress and over-dressing. A jury consisting of Messrs. Teague, Powers, Hamilton.Dewer and the chairman, Mr. H. AitkeD decided in favor of the pros. Naturally, in view of the wide issues taken on the implication of the word, they could award no other decision. The audience also, had previously given its vote that way. Before becoming a habit, the use of tobacco is distinctly a fashion. Posters���large or email���at The Daily Teleokam.
