JUST AlUUVHO-A largo aliipmcut ol tho linest KoT. anuhew's chuucii. At the Presbyterian church last night Rev. Mr, Scouler took for his text lat ThessalouianB, 5c. 22v.— "Abstain from all appearaucoof evil"— and said: Thero is ono form of ovil which exists in our land, as iu almost every other civilized land, that I intend specially io deal with this evoning, namely, the uso of intoxicants. In my judgment, this is uu unmixed evil Irom which evory Christian should seek t- abstain. If a Christian doeB not see it his duty to abstain fur his own Bake, I think ho is bound to do ao for iho sake of his weak-*' brothron. St. Paul touches ub this principle: "If meat mako my brother to offend, I will eat no meat while the world standcth, lest 1 mako my brother to offend." Hence, wo should noithei drink nor buy nor offer strong drink to any ouo. If wo had universal abstinence among those who profess to bo Christians, this would go a long way to remove intemperance from the land. Tho position that tho Presby- ti-rinii general assembly takes on this question is very strong and decided. lt urges upon oil its ministers and churches to take a loading part with a view to bringing about the early and total prohibition of the liquor traffio To this end wo must win the aged and educate the young. If the young be eet right on this question, thon in a generation or two wb might see an end to too whole ovil. It is easier to-day to bo a total abstainer than it waa f. rty years ago. At social gatherings, at marriages, at funoruls, nnd even at baptisms it was thou customary to pasa around strong drink. The use of in* toxicants was fashionable and was considered necessary, but a great change hus beeu brought abuut iu the last fow years comparatively. Much Btill re mains to he dune, however, in the various ways of precept, example, edu cation, orgnnizut'on and legislation. We nBk if thi-i temperance work is tlie work of God, for if no nro pBrsund.d that it is, as ne must be, we bhnll be eager to h_lp in any way, however humble, in a work that, hus for its oh ject tho glory of God and the uplifting of mankind to a higher level. Thero is muoh tu bu gained in prosecuting this work; there is nothine to be lost. The future will nevor become what it may be unless this groat ovil is ro moved from tho laud. Look around you and nsk what is the cause of muoh of tho misery in the world. Oh, how many faces uro bathed iu tears thar might bo wreathed in amiles. How many know tlio meaning of that biiing word poverty, that might bo blessed wiih plenty. The preacher, in cui eluding, addressed a word of warning tu tlio young on the danger of taiuper ing with the ovil, nnd -f exhoraton to those who had become slaws to the habit to give themselves to Christ nnd they would bu boi freo nnd led and kopt in tho way of holiness. plying every means to amass wealth of this world, which, suddenly perhapi, they are called to leave; snd having mado no provision for the life to oome they go out of tho world as naked as they came in. I trust none of us are living thus; we had better be poor hero and rich in the other world, than rich hero and poor there; better have tbe applause of God than of men; in short, better be a Christian than an unbeliever. Do not give your whole attention to things of this world aud rob yourself of the blessings of the world to come; lay self aside, let tho mind uud heart contemplate the prize; let the purpose single and supreme be to gain it, lay aside nil dead weights, sins and sinful alliance. nin! look unto Jesus tho author nnd limsher of our faith. Keep thy oity of tho Great Kingdom in viow, that city where thero is no census, no tido of business, no hearse wending its way to tho silent tomb, and no mourners, but angels rejoicing, enints for oitizens. In conclusion, with Paul Iboioechyou by the mercies of God that ye preient your bodies a livinit sacrifice holy and acceptable unto Him, which is your reasonable service. rt. Paul's chuuch. At the Reformeii Episcopal church, last evening, the Rev. Thoa. Haddon discoursed from Philippimis 3 chap. 13th und Hth verses on the subject: "Prize Winners." He said:—Forty years ago a youug man bathing in the rivor Clyde discovered, whilo swim- ming from shore to shore, that on the opposite bank thero was a piece if uncultivated laud, aud so interesting and proity was the spot lhat ho tminud it alter the lady to whom ho wub uspous ed, with a fervent desire that he -ome day might possess it; and to gain . his prize all the efforts of his life wero tion* eeutrated until seven years ngo, having accumulated wealth in his business of ship building, he gained the prize and entered into posaeBsinn. The desire to gain this prize had boen his ruling passion through Ule, and by np plying tho energies of his wholo I ein„- ho had succeeded. Men through all time have had special prizes in viow, special purposes to accomplish, aud in tho end hu.o proved that by steady perseverance what seemed almost impossible had bueu accomplished; and that there is reward to thoso who steadfastly pursue any objeot. I ntn fully persuaded that this principle holds good in tho religions as well as the civil world; Paul had a mark he strove to reach, and this ono supreme purpose took possession of his whole moral and spiritual being; his mental gifts wero pressed into sorvice to gain, and his spiritual attainments pointed towards this achinvement. This one thing tilled his wholo vision day and night wherever ho went; his position and wonderful careor wore as nothing to him, they had no charm since he had seen tho Lord of Glory. Sinco tlio Bpirit had entered his soul what a change: before, ho had been ambitious 11 overthrow tho bulwark of Christianity, persecuting its followers. Now it was his ouo desiro to furthor Christianity, to point to the Iamb of God, to devolop tho Christian graces; and he gavo up all things elso to win tho mark of tho prizo of tho high calling which is in Christ Jesus. This is tho purposo of tho Christian religion, lt not only enters tho heart of man but stirs him to olovato tho position of his fellow man; it helps him not only to teck n higher piano nf Christian experience, but expands his soul and gives him energy to aid in tlio amelioration of his fellow men. Tlio livos of Enoch, Noah, Moses and Abraham nro examples of life effort, of devotion, of oneness of aim, applied to the accomplishment of somo ipecial work. Tho world is nn opposing element to this lifo devotion; sclfcomos in to divide tho energies nnd affections, making sacrifice of principle, honor, friendship just to gain selfish ends. God and his law nro hardly thought of, tho prize is lost sight of and tho holy fire and zeal nnd graco nro deadened by tho ono desiro of self intorest; tho consuming desire of Wolsley wns his own Rgt-rnn- disunion!, sacrificing principle to gain tho esteem of his earthly sovereign; bo much bo that whon about to dio he said: "Oh that I had sorted my God ub well as I liavo served my king," My friends, wo cannot servo God mid mammon, Paul's desiro was to know nothing among men savo Christ nnd Him crucified; his one purpose was to press onward, upward, with eye fixed on the goal, quickening his step until ho crossed tho line and received the prizo. How different tho purpose for whioh the great mass live to-day; just straining every nerve, np* CORRESPONDENCE. ilreel Ci-wil_.fi. Editor Columbian:—I see that the progressive council are still progressing in improvements. They started again on Columbia atreet this morning by building a crossing from the storo of tho chairman of tho park committee to the workshop of the chairman of the fire committee, Theso two men muat have important business to transact with each other, and as time is money, a crossing between their two places of business must be secured. One is running for the provincial parliament, the other for local honors. One says to tho other: "Scratch my back, I'll siratch yours." Now, Mr. Editor, on Columbia street, from one end to the other, I find tbat there is only one crossing to each block. I have no objection to crossings, for the more tho merrier, but in this instance I think it is a piece of unnecessary work incurred for the accommodation of two councillors at the public expeuBc. You see where self comes iu ? One of the councillor-- hopes togo to Victoria, and he thinks he had better secure a crossing while ho is in the council and before it is too late. / Ratepaybb. Eh-tll-in Tnlk. Editor Columbia*-. — _.)>:—Tlie «- tremity to which small politic, .ns are driven wheu election day ts too long deferred, is well illustrated in the Hiotio "dialogue" which appears In Truth of Sunday morning. The dialogue in queition is alleged to have taken place between a defender of Mr. Corbould, (why "defender" ?) and a supporter of Mr. Cunningham. 'Tlio scene of the controversy is appropriately laid in a bar-room, as it ia painfully, evident that both parties to it were considerably under the influence of liquor, Dick, Mr, Corbould's defender, apparently carried tho heaviest load, for be begins by "looking thunder" at hia opponent. Poets have sometimes written of a "lightning glauce," but a man must be very drunk when he looks "thunder." Harry seems to havo been sober enongh to realize that it ia useless to argue with an intoxicated man, for he says bnt little, allowing Diok to do all tht talking. It must make Mr. Corbould very tired to road tho productions of some of his "defenders," and from presont indications ho wiU soou have came to pray to be deliverod from his friends, especially from the wild, wild western journalist on Church stroot. Yours, Asm Ror. New Westminstor, Nov. 18.h, 1889. -IniMlumba™: Aur-werc-l. Editor Columbian—Sir:—My attention was called to a communication whioh appeared iu your issue of the 15th over the signature "No Humbug" in which tho writer makes u cowardly and slanderous attack on myself and friends who are supporting Mr. Corbould's (.lection as our representative to tbe local house. I am sorry Mr. Cunningham haa got to suoh straits that ho has. to employ such mon as Mr. Greer and ''No Humbug" to do hia dirty work. It is quite true Idid support Mr. Bole in his election, and also nuito true that I am now supporting Mr. Corbould, and in doing bo am actuated by the best of motives, that is, the welfare and future prosperity of our oity, and on tho 25th Nov. will prove to Mr. Cunningham and hia cowardly advocate that the electors are of the same opinion, that Mr. Corbould is the man to represent us in the local house. "No Humbug" accused mo of being after the almighty dollar. Well I have no hesitation in saying that I am after that dollar, and don't you think that friend Tom has a strong loaning that way. In foot the whole Cunningham tribe are built that way. Now I would like to ask "No Humbug" if ho remembers tho time one of tho Cunningham family misrepresented tho city and district in tho Dominion house; how he took a contract for supplying the poor Indians with blankets, and only escaped being hoavily fined by resigning hia Beat and thus disfranchising this constituency. And again when we aent him to the local houso wai it not a repetition of his conduct in the Dominion houae, only it was nxo handles this timo at ono dollar each? I tell you, Mr. Humbug, this city has been Cun- nighamed too much in the past and I am confident that on tho 25th Nov. all •ight thinking and independent electors will share my opinion. Tho Cunningham fnction always nave had tho government patronage in the paat and can keep it in tho future. 1 can live without government aid, thank heaven, and defy any peraon to rightfully chargo mo with doing a dishonorable act either in private, business or public life Again "No Hum* bug" asks who are Cunningham's supporters; Echo answers, "who" for I tell you they aro few and far between; and it Mr. Cunningham Is wiso, ho will withdraw from the contest, and by doing so provo that ho has tho truo interests of our fair eity at heart. In conclusion 1 would Bny, if "No Humbug" has any moro dirt to sling let him have the manliness to come out over his own name, or else attend to his book keeping In the swamp, Apologizing for taking up so much of your valuable space, I am yoars, Meteorologlml lepers far Week Katllai Sov.W, 18M.

The Times says that nn editorial whi.li appeared in this paper on WtNlnesday last, in reply to its shameless mid stupid n ltuck on the electors of this eity us a body, is "painfully pointless." VPoenn understand why oui'ootoutjiorury should Bay bo; tho expression is peculiarly appropriate: the "painful points" hav. -n iduntly penetrated our cotemporary's pachydermatous sheathing nnd broken off and mc now rankling beneath the surface ; hence tho feel mi,'groan emitted ns above, Seri- ouivy, when it comes to be considered, thore wore quite it number of pointi in the article in question, and, aa the Times has been literally turgid with abuse and calumny of this constituency even since our first operation, and has been poisoning its circulation by another infusion of Truth (?), we shall sharpen up the "painful points" and give our suffering cotem. anothor dig, for its own good of courso. One now point wo may noto to begin with, and that is, that tbe Times in its last attack has abandoned all attempt to roturn to tlio arguments (.) which we pricked, but contents itsolf with a longer quotation from 'Truth and a simple reussertmont of its former calumnies. Z pon what does the Times base its wholo windy hurrah 1 it will bo worsh while to inquire. Upon the simple fact thnt no avowedly opposition candidate ban been found to e .me forward at this time and contest- for tho vacant sent in the pro'iucial parliament. This is certainly a significant fact, and requites cool aud dispassionate investigation beforo rushing into hasty and foolish conclusions, We cnre nothing for the Times' theories on the question, whieh, being ready niads> nnd ulways to hand, that journal ries to tit on, like nn old cap, to ad imaginable cases and circum- stances, whenever provincial polities is concerned. We have the fact. \\Vhat, without, prejudice or favor, is tt e obvious and actual explanation, upon inquiry into all the cir- circun.tances bearing on the case? In the lust general election, iu July of 1886, Mr. Bole, tho opposition candidate, polled 212 votes- out of a totu1 registered voting population of ■160 in this eity ; his opponent, Mr, Penis, only secured 37 votes. Mr Boh was at the time of the election refe-red to at the Hood tido of bit popularity ; he was to he tho "com ing iu_ n," the Napoleon undor whom the demoralized opposition ranks wen- tn form up, and beforo whom all o .posing forces were to dissolve and wheel into tho triumphant pro- cession. BufcJnin--s Bay proved a Wat jr! oo, On the other hand, Mr. Bole s opponent was not n popular man, and, whilo the former got ninny vote.", on personal grounds, th at otherwise wero favorablo to tho government, the latter received just barely the support of the staunch* est government electors, and tho great, bulk of the government voters disfriiiohised themselves altogether on tin; occasion in question. Wo are thus particular about analyzing these matters of recent history because, the Times in its nrticlo rested the weight of it_ oontantipn on tho assumptions that this constituency was ni opposition preserve, and that Mr, Bole had been elected by ac- ohuniition (!) because of his pro liimnced hostility to tho government. Wa have, then, as tho legitimate Oppositionstrongth in this eity, three years ngo, 21'J vote.., minus at least one third on nc nunt of the circutu- staiues outlined iibnve, or less tlian an nctuaj voting strength of 150. Since JWSfl (Ik* number of registered voter, for this city Una increased fl-ODl 400 to nearly' 1000. Wo are |'"rfe;tly s-ire in -saying that the so- called opposition party hus gainer] lio following or prestige in the . nu-aiitiine, but rather lost, uiul the ndmioistrntivo party, although by no means perfect iu every respect, has gained oorreaj)ondingJy. If tho Times imitfc v.-nt its blackguardism oh some object because no ono bus been found to el. vato tbe opposition liniino-- in this city, let it confine it. remark*! to its own Hook, But wo njiini. that neither raillery nor pci'su-ision . mill! induce a man or a body of men to court certain and overwhelming defeat on behalf of principle™ no indeterminate and a cause ft j uiierly weak and worthless us th it of i he present notuinnl "op ppaitioti1- in thi. province. The sweet, guiloleBB simplicity of the advertiser for u husband or a wife, as the caso may be, is remark* nblo. Thus, thero is, "Advertiser, ago _0, going into business, wishes lo correspond .Wilt femalo with means, or young widow," The gen tlemon evidently thinks that boeauso a woman has boon married once, there is somo guarantee that sho will make a good wife; bo, although he requires a premium, ho to speak, with u "female" (presumably meaning a spinster), he is quito willing to forego any suoli inducement In the case of a widow. It is inter esting to note the distinotion he draws between a female aud a widow. Many before him lmve held this distinotion, but with u difference, scarcely flattering to the "relict of the late departed," Thus, Mr. Waller. ff-i wh°> tt is generally conceded, had some grounds for his opinion, was most averse to "vid* dors,"both as a class and indi vidually, and wo all havo rend his pathetic advice to Iub hopeful sou, to have nothing to do with them. In these inatriinouiakadvertisements two or three very remarkable things aro generally disccrniblo. Tho gentlemen seeking wives are invariably of tho bluest blood aud generally wish to meet with partners who are "good looking, youug, domesticated ami with some means." The ladies who seek mates aro all that the most exacting swain could desire, veritable goddesses; but, alas, alas, with very few dollars. And so it happens tliat timo and again wo seo the same pathetic appeal from "Juliet, 21 (always 21, although the advertisement may run for yours), highly connected, loving disposition, (lark, generally considered good looking, seeks a husband/' Sometimes tho lady adds by way of postscript, "Elderly gentleman not objected to, with a little money." This frank open avowal of a desire fur "a little monoy," or "menus", soonjs to pervade the wholo run of matrimonial advertising, and seems to imply that tho individuals seeking partners nro not, liko Otosar's wife, above sus picion, but rather make no secret of the fact that they aro stono broko. It would probably be interesting to follow up the sequels to some of these matches which nro made through the medium of tho press, but it might prove that the interest would bo of a tragical nature. Whether it is^so in most oases is nn open question, which, of course, iu the nature of things, does not admit of satisfactory solution. Undoubtedly some of theso marriages aro happy enough, but thut the greater percentage are anything liko tolerable seems generally considered to bo doubtful. Where tho question of money is so pushed to tho front ns in most of thoso advertisnients, considerations of affection are probably littlo thought of. NOTES ANI) COMMENTS. A Wisconsin judgo has just given an odd decision in a divorce cas**. Instead of granting absoluto divorce, which was asked for, he has ordered a separation for three years, counselling the parties to endeavour to settle their differences amicably during that period.

Though the Race Was Lost the Prise Was Won, "I .Id not know you had bo muoh poetry in your composition," observed Mrs, An- struthor, languidly. Leila Marsdon arranged tbe delicate lace nt her wrist with an air of abstraction. "He Is vory good looking, and ho rides .plan .Idly," she Bald, "and ho-er— he does lore me to distraction, you know." "As many othors probably will do boforo your time is ovor, my doar; but that has milling to do with the case. You must get married, and Templo is just the man for you. As tor tlio other one, he'll get over It iu time; thoy always do, You ere surely not poing to trouble your Billy little head about him." Miss Marsden roso and walked across tho room Lo tbe veranda. "I'll think about It," sho said, half turning in the doorway to Rlanco back at hor sister. "I'll think about it, and I'll make up my mind this evoning. Thero I I can't promise moro than that, can I, Rose. You aro satisfied, aren't youl" "Yes, lam satisfied," replied Mra. An- Blnithor* and as sho dozed through tho long afternoon that followed she allowed; hor sister to figure very prominently in hor) dreams as tho wife of Major Temple wburtou of Uio —hussars and futuro Haronet. M.„irabad is famous for Its pretty girls; mit prettiest aud most striking of all wus Leila ftlnrsdon at Iho race ball that night, "lluco ball" la, perhaps, too big a term to bo properly applied to it; but tho arrival of n couplo of regiments on their way to tho front ior lir-cl stirred up Sizirabad to sports on three dnys of the wook, tho race ball Intervening. "You'll como down to sec tho finish to- morrow, M_*9 Marsdon!" asked Tommy Cumpbcll, tiie wit of Sizirabad, as ho strolled up to Leila that evening and asked her for . dance. "There's tho oup raco coming off, you know, and tho ladles' handica-p- end the "nee Willoughby rides to win—the one wi tt tho lady as prize." "\\\\ hot do you mean!" asked Leila, laugh inff. "Ho means the ladles' prize race," said Mn jor Arburton, standing close behind her, and glowering at Campbell over her shoulder. "And is Mr. Willoughby quite likely to win iti" asked Leila, somewhat indifferently. "Tho betting is all on him, but he's got a t.citliab mount, and I don't like that left- hand corner of the course. With a pulling horso, and a vicious brute into the bargain, you Btand a raro chanco of jumping tho li .dgo and disappearing down tbe precipice. ..ni t imagine why tliey don't arnui go things butter lu this outlandish land; but then 1 novor havo seen tho advantages of India. Bug your pardon, Misa Marsdon, didn't mean a pun." And ho disappeared among tho dancors with a comical look on his fuco, v.lille Leila laughed forcedly and turned to tier1 .partner. "H-.w odd he lsl" she said. "B/tho way, what horso is Mr. Willoughby going to rido tojnorrow in the Ladies' raco V "Oue of mine—Mazeppa. You seem to tuke a great Intorest in that follow Willoughby." [Jealously.] "Not at all. He is rather a friend of my sister's," replied Leila, carelessly. "Aro not yeu going to ride in this interesting raco, Major Arburton J" . "If you wish it [very tenderly], and if my weight will allow of it." [Doubtfully.] Tlio mixed sentiment jarrod ou Leila; but ho v*.as rich, in a good regiment, with exccl- l. at prospects. What mattered it that ho Wild far beyond thirty, and nolonger so slim m hn had boon I It was a good matoh for a •I'linilcs™ girl and sho had no choice; and ■■>, I ;ig beforo the evening was over, peo- )lt_ woro whispering togothor concerning ■J.ss .Marsden and Major Arburton, niidaro- >ert Uow about that he had proposed and had -■■en nccepted. . Tho truth or otherwise of suoh statements vas not to bo road on Leila's face. To all i-siiw-ird observance she was as calm and inutility and beautiful as ever. Nono know hat sbe looked at hor programmo ovor and ver again to make sure that there was no lisinke, und that tho initials "0. C. W." crawled against the fifteenth valso mado ior await that dance with a sickening wart. It camo at last. The band struck up the ttrnlits of a well-known valso, the room jcgan to fill, and presently Leila Marsden, with palor cheeks tban usual and a strango ocnting ef tho heart, was floating round with Charlie Willoughby as partner. "Shallwo sit the rost out!" ho askod, when they paused at length, Leila bout her hoadln assent, and they •■ti -Hed out of tbo room onto the long, low voraudu, somewhat to tho dismay of bor 1 inter who hud watched them eagerly whilo togothor. Tho moonlight throw the girl's palo fuco and tall, Blight figuro into strong relief against tbedarkvoritudnbackground. Chiirllo Willoughby leant against a pillar uvorrun with creeper mid lookod at hor Jlsodly. He mado no oxcuso for himself, nor did ho break tho sllcnco between thom. Uis eyas searched hor faco as though lie would read thore what ho dared not trust himself to hoar. Presently Leila spoke. Her voice sounded fiiintand faraway oven to horsolf. "l hear," Bho said, pleadingly, "that yon are going to rido a vory vicious horso to-morrow tn tho Ladles' prize race, Plcnso don't rido it; pleaso do not." "And I hoar that you are engaged to worry Mojor Arburton" (without tho ;■ .-jlitest roforonce to hor appeal). "Is that iruo, Leila, or Is it not!" She looked down and traced a little turn 011 tho stono floor with hor foot. "Is It true, oris it not!" ho repeated, fiercely. She lifted her eyes to his, and bow thero tho passion wbloh trombled lu his voico. "Don't bo angry; oh, do not I" she cried, putting up hor hands with a deprecating gesture; "thoy have mado me do It. I am ii burden to my sister, you know; aud I couldn't stand it any longer; and ho is not so bad; but I love > ou tho best—oh, so much thoboBtl You know it; only I-I—I am so miserable." "Doubtless," he Bold, gravoly, never for un instant removing his cyos from tbo fair, pltoous face; "so am I—very miserable; so havo I beon for tho past montli, but my misery doesn't seem to touch you muoh. 80 you aro going to marry this CrcosustthlB elderly futuro Baronet, and throw ino ovor quito, ore you, Leila!" She twisted and untwisted hor hands norvouBly, but made no reply, "And you are good enough to take sufficient Interest tn mo to wish me not to break my noutc to-morrow!" Bho was Btill silent, "Verygood. Thon listen tome. I ride ta-mmw, fliyi I HAetpwln, and you ar. to bo thn prl_o. Yes, you—do not look go startled—you. I ride to win, or I ride to— Nevor mind that part of the business. If I win X shall consider you mine in spite of all the Major Arburtons In the world. If not-* do you understand the alternative, Leila!" She bent her head. Could sho avoid understanding it) "It lies with you," he went on steadily. "You know my horse, you know tho racecourse, you know me. If to*morrow beforo starting you bid me rido to win, vory good; if not— Tho music has begun again. Shall I tako you back to your elderly futuro Baronet!" "My dear Leila, what nonsensol" cried Mrs. Anstruthor. "Bub your checks, child, and drink this wino. You look as whito as a ghost, and about ns unhappy. Not go to tho races I You will have every ono saying it is all off again just as it is all on. lt is too aggravating of you, really." It was tho day following the ball. Leila, In hor slater's room, was utterly refusing to accompany her to iho race-course, and equally positive in hor rofusal to bco Major Arburton. "I know what it is," Mrs. Anstruthor went on, angrily; "that boy has boon talking nonsense to you. It was too foolish of you to give him a danco last night. If I hud known of it I should havo takon you horn** most certainly." "Ho did not talk nonsense, and ho is not foolish, nor Is ho a boy," crlod Leila, vehemently; aud then sho gavo way and relapsed inlo copious weoplng. "At nny rate ho is only a sub-lieutenant, nud can not possibly havo more than fivo hundred a year. And what Is moro, he doesn't moan it seriously with you. If you throw over Major Arburton now you will bo throwing hiin ovor for a moro shadow. Everybody knows what a flirt Charlie Willoughby is. He make** lovo to evory girl bo meets." "That Isn't true I" exclaimed Leila, with au effort, at drying her tears. "H'm! How about Fanuy Hope, and ono or two others I could mention." Silence. "And how about his debts!" Silence. ••Andbisgambllng—and that actross.ond—" Leila sprang to her feet. "I won't listen any moro 1" sho cried. " I do caro for him, aud I hate Major Arburton, and I won't marry him, and I will not go to the races to-day." Mrs. Anstruther grew pale. Sho felt her last chance was going. " Thon I Bhall have to remind you," she said, firmly, "tbat I cun not support all my brothers and Bisters all their lives. I did my bost for Noll, and I am doing my best for you. You scorn to forget that I havo children of my own to bo broutfhtup. 1 counted on your marrying as soon as possiblo. I did not count on your throwing up a roasonablo chance." It was cruel, but it had its effect. Leila turned vory white, then sbo moved to tho door. "I will go with you," sho said, scarcely abovo a whisper. Tho Ladies' prize raco was the noxt on tho programmo. Cutisldomblo excitement prevailed among tho fair sex as to who would win it, Leila alone sat calm uml num. veil anion!," I ho spectators.

Willoughby; you look so iiko winning," otc. The hero of tho raco took little notico of such-like remarks. He mado his way to Leiln, and bent low over hor. "Whicli is it to be!" ho asked.' For an instant earth and sky reeled round her, then hor brain cleared, and she saw his face, resolute, handsome, desperate. She hesitated for one Instant; then sbe spoke: "Hide to win." The words wero so low ho could scarcely hear them, but when he turned away there was a smile in his eyes. The horses and their riders were drawn up ln a line. Leila strained her oyes to watch every movement of black and white, Mr. Willoughby's colors. Mazeppa fidgeted and caught at the bit. Thero was bohio littlo delay, then tho flag was dropped; they wore off. At flrst breathless Bllonco, then growing excitement. The courso was n small one, ond the race was to bo run twice round. Major Arburton, who had not taken part In It, uttcreda"ThankGodl" ns,Mazeppa passed tho dangerous cornor In safety for the first timo. "Blue's to the front; 110, yellow's pushing up; no, that's Meldon, Stick to it, Moldon. Willoughby's pnsscit blm. By Jovol ho's got his work cut out for hlm with that horse. Now they're nod.- and-nock. Good race. No, Wlllougliby's gaining; no, Moldon; no—by heaven!" A scream from ono of tbo ladies, n general consternation In the gruiul stand, a sudden cessation of interest in tho race. Cbarllo Willoughby rodo to win, but tho providence ho hod dared revenged itsolf on him. Mazeppa had forced the bit between his. teeth, Blued away from tho courso, and, leaping the frail protection of n hedge wliich separated it from tho sido of tbo hill, had disappeared with his rider. • "It was a narrow shave, and nomlBtukc," said Charlie Willoughby, going over tho story for tho hundredth timo with his wifo the socond mouth of thoir marriage. "But tho bost part of it all was when I knelt down beside you and would not leave yoh," laughed Leila. "I shall never forget Major Arburton's face, nor his words next day when he told mo nil was over botween us, and that tho best thing I could do, after having mado such an exhibition of myself, was to marry 'that young puppy.'" "No," Baid hor husband, tendorly, "tho beBt part of it all was that 1 rodo to win, and that I dul win—what I most wanted— my wife."—London World. THE PROPHETIC DONKEY. Ono of Proaldont Lincoln's Inlmltabl. Stories with 11 Mural, There was a local politician went to Washington to get an oflico thut ho felt sure only awaited his application for it to bo given tu him. In a couplo of weeks ho came buck. "Well, did you got your office!" his friends asked him. "No," said ho. "Did you seo President Lincoln!" "Yos, of courso." "What did ho say!' "Well, wo wont m and Btated our errand. He heard us patiently, and then said: " 'Gentlemen, 1 am sorry I have no oflico for Mr. X., but If I can't givo you that 1 cnu toll you a story.' "Wo thought bost to bear the story, and let blm go on. "'Onco thoro was A certain King,'he said,'who kopt an nstrologor to forewarn him of coming events, and especially to toll liim whether il; was going to rain when he wanted to go ou hunting expeditions. One day ho had started off for tho forest with a train of ladies and loids for a graud hunt, whon the party mot a farmor riding a don key. '"Good-morning, farmer,' said the King. " 'Good-morning, King,1 said the farmer; 'whoro are you folks going!' " 'Hunting,' said tho King, " 'You'll all got wet!' aaid tho farmor. "Tho King trusted his astrologer, of courso, and went to tho forest; but by midday there oamo on a terrific storm tliu * dronohod and buffottcd tho wholo parly. Whon tho King returned te his palace, ho had tho astrologer decapitated, and sent for tho farmer to tako his place. " 'Law's Bako,1 said tbo farmer, whon he arrived, 'it ain't me that knows when it's going to rain; it's roy donkey, When It's going to bo fair weather tho donkey carries his ears forward—sa Whon It's going to rain ho puts thom backwards—so. " 'Make tho donkoy tho court astrologer. shouted the King. It was dono. But the King always declared that tho appointment was tho greatest mistake that ho had over made lnhls life,' "Lincoln stopped there. "'Why did be say it was a mistake.' we asked him; 'didn't tho donkoy do tils duty;' "'Yoa,' Bold the President; 'but lifter that overy donkey wanted on office.'" o^^^mmM^^^^^^^^M^^^BM^ •-)- Editor (lo -r-n'l-miiii j... ,„■, S _E"". \""",,,) ' G""«*' -<•__» .

Thin is the second timo the Clara Purl 1ms cumo to grief in Pitt Lake, but luckily the present accident was nut su serious as the former, Thore nuyht to ho a survey made cf Pitt Luke for thu benelit ot mariners. facial (lull At a moating of some of the members of Huly Trinity ohuroh, oil Friday evening, n Eocial club waa formed, commencing with a membership of 40. A suitable room is tu be procured nnd furnished us soon as possible, and it will bo kept well supplied with magazines and other rending matter. Tlio olhcors of tlio new club aro: Bishop SllHtoe, president; Hov. C. Croucher, H. F. Clinton; and W, J. Walker, vice-presidents; Rev. H. Irwin, treasurer; J, Polly, secretary. There Jb a bright future in store for the now club. Impnrtnui Land Balcss Mr. T. J. Trapp is advertising noma important land sales, which, no doubt, will attract widu attontion ns ihe demand for eligible property is continit ally on tho increase. Ho hns for sale the lino homestead of Mrs. A. M. John stono, of Mud Bay, containing 272 acres of excellent land, together with outbuildings, stock, and implements. This is a raro opportunity, Mr. Trnpp will iilsu sell by auction on Saturday evening lot 17 block 7, containing 12 lut.; 4 lots in suburban lut 25. bind' 0; and several 5 aero lots at Port Kells, peculiarly adapted to fruit growing. The lailrnl Addition. The smart little steamer "Kellio Taylor" has boon purchased by Mr. W. H. Vianen from her former owners in Vancouver. Mr. F. Davis Mr. Via- lien's assistant, and Louis Olin went over to Vancouvor on Saturday to bring round this latest addition to tin* Westminster fleet. Thoy started from Vancouver as tho tide was coming in, and although tho Nellie has remarkably powerful engines for a boat of her Bizc, they struggled ono hour and a half in ihu Narrows against tlio tide, which was sect hi ni* nnd boiling like a rapid. The thirty odd miles frum Vancouvor tu Westminster were done iu good timo, and thu steamer just arrivod in timo to cscapo tho storm which raged Vepterday. The "Nellie Taylor" is a four-ton wooden harbor tug, with on* pities of six horso-puwer. who will be lilted np by Mr. Vianen in lirst-clu__ style, and will bo employed partly ns a freight und partly passenger boat. V-tiicouvrr Wins. Tho foot ball in nte li on Saturday nf- ternoon nt Hasting*'', Vancouver v. West minster, brought to light tho fact that the terminal city is playing n team this season lhat discounts anything that she has produced in the past. On the contrary, Westminster is weak, very weak, having lost not a few of her very best players. When the Wost* minster team left fur Hastings on Saturday iho members expected to como homo beaten, but ihey never imogilied thu load wuuld bo hoaped on so heavily. Yet thoy hnvo thu satisfaction nf knowing tlicy succumbed to a stronger combination, nnd consequently tnko their defeat ns cheerfully as could be oxpootod under tho eirournstiucos. The match commenced at 3:80 o'clock, and frum the lirst Vancouver played an ngf-ressivo gamo. The siiperiurity uf tho tormina! team nnd tho weakness of the lloyal City team wero soon plainly evidenced, and I hough tho hitter played pluckily th mug liout, tho match proved a walk-over for tho former. When timo was culled tho scoro stood livo goals nnd three tries for Vanoouvor, against a blank score fur Westminstor, Tho mutch with Victoria takes place nu S_turdav next, and it in ti he hnpod that tho Royal City toam wilt ho ablo to make a better showing on this occasion than on Saturday Inst. Tlm prevailing opinion in that lacm-se has t.iken nwny muoh of tlie interest in foot ball, and thnt thu latter game has loaf much of its old timo popularity in tlrs city. CHARLIE STEWART DROWNED.

Stewart wns nut a robust man, nnd tho condition in which ho was in at tho timo must have mndo it impossible for hlm to hang on tn tho slimy piles ur ovon shuUt fur assistance. The body was being dragged for from an early hour this morning, and about 11:30 it wasrocuverodfrom itsrestingplnci! near thu foot uf the whnrf piles, Tho 1 u- dians touk chnrgo of the corpso, wrapped it up in n clean blanket nud covered tho faco with a cloth.

On Saturday morning Oapt, Peele, oftho Signal Service, announced that a big blow would roach the ooost some time on Sunday, coining from lho southeast. Ah usual the majority nf people were rather sceptical, and preferred waiting to sou tho storm befure believing it would come, it came, however, passed over und left its mail: behind. About 1 o'olock tho bank ui clouds that had been darkening the southeast horizon nil the morning, began tu movo with increased rapidity, and about 1:16 p. m. a galo of considerable strength was blowing over Uio eity. By 1:30 o'clock tho gale had increased to a hur ncaue, and the air presented a very spotted and dirty appearance. Lanves, straw, dust, smnli sticks, old clothing, etc., were carried nl of fc and whirled into space iu a surprising manner, and moro weighty objects, against which tho wind cast its full force, were thrown down iu a twinkling, nud in sumo instances carried away bodily. Tho storm lasted about two hours aud then continued to ubato until sundown, when the wind fell, and was ful- luwed by heavy rain nn h;ui* after* ward's. Tho damage dono wus considerable on the whole, but trilling in individual case*. A number of sign, wero blown down and shop windows brokon un Colbmbia and Front streets; Capt. Poole's flagstaff waa thrown to iho earth) and had this accident happened on a weekday when several carriages are usually standing in front of tho Colon* inl,seriuus damage would have occurred to either horso or vehicle, or both. A pmtion of the tin rooting ontho new Bushby block was torn from its fasten* ings nnd deposited on Columbia street,, ono piece making a savago dart at several pedestrians iu its descent, whicli caused thom to mnke some very eccentric moves not laid down in tho atreeta nnd sidewalks regulations bylaw. Tho telephone and telegraph wires were lmdjy used by the wind, being crushed and tangled up in a manner moro aggravating than tlio "Fifteen puzzle." Down in the swamp ii Siwash wns sitting in his shanty watching his Sunday dinner, which wna bulling on the atove. The wind came along, found an entrance under the cabin, lifted it like n balloon and deposited it safely on thu other side of the tail way track, leaving the Siwash unharmed, but terribly frfghtened, in front of thb stove. Tho F.tv. Stella tried to effect a lauding during tho storm at tho U, C. P. M. Co's. wlinrf, but failed, and had to tnko refuge a short distance down tho North Arm. Soveral lumber piles iu the Royal City Mill yard camo to grief, and for a time iho boards were tnasofl about by the playful luirrio.ine like so ninny straws Tho nrch nn Park lane, which it wus intended to remove tu Ihe entrance of Queen'.1; park, was blown down nud badly smashed. Mr. and Mrs. Risko were driving towards thu arch, nud wen; w thin a few yards of it whin it fill. Their .scape wastndy providential. Mr. 11. V. Ednmid's Hue new stable waa blown off its perpendicular, and would probably liavo fallen bad nut props been placed ngainst it Many fences were blown down, and a [-leat many trees also succumbed to the fierceness of the sturm. The iron chimney on the Ornngu Hall was lifted from its socket and deposited on John street, and King William himsolf showed symptums i*f moving from his elevated position and seeking a less exposed stand. • But although ho bowed nnd bent and porformed many astonishing gymnastics, ho weathered tho galo without accident. The must serious accident of all occurred at tho penitentiary, Between 000 nml SOO feet of tim middle and eastern walls of tho grounds woro blown duwn, including several uf the soutry buxes. lt is vory fortunate that this accident ocourred un Sunday, u.henvise some nf the guards on sentry would probably have been ibjurodjanu besides tho convicts working in tho ticldo would have lind an excellent opportunity to escape which many wuuld hot hnvo been slow to mako use of. The thunder of falling trees, in tho forests in -ronr of tho city, und on the opposite sido of 'ho river, was frequently heard nbovo tlie howlhig of the storm. On the river the water was lushed Into turbulent waves, which ran quite high, endangering small craft that were out when the storm rose, Ono boat, containing a party of youthful hunters, waaenpsijud and thu occupant, thrown into tho water. They managed to hold nn and reach shure safely, but Install their guns, shooting bags, etc., and one dog. Several barrels wore blown from the deck of tho stenmer Irving on lier down trip, and tho Btdrm was blowing so fiercely that un attempt was mado tn r*t>p the- vessel aud pick them up ngnin. Tho telegtaph wires betweon the junction and Vancouver wero badly domoralinod by tho itorm, and in many plnccs they were torn down nnd broken. A huge gang of men was nt ■vork to*dny repairing the breaks. . Oiti. tin on the .Vnrpntli.
