Ottawa, Aug. ��.--Throughout the day everybody at the capital affected in any degree by the war situation was kept busy. Premier Borden and his ministers, the officials of the militia and naval department and all the departments In the slightest degree affected had no leisure moments. Sit Robert and his colleagues were in conference throughout the day and j evening making every possible preparation in the event of Great Britain becoming involved in the struggle which Kurope is about to embark upon They plan to have everything in readiness so that when the moment comes to act there will not be a minute's delay. Col. Sam Hughes, minister of militia, was able to assure his colleagues that the plans for the mobilization of the Canadian forces are complete. Quebec City, it is said, will be the point of mobilization. The Ancient City will be chosen because it is already the headquarters of a considerable portion of the permanent forces now In Canada and because it will be the port from which the transports will sail when the times comes to send troops from Canada. NIOBE TO BE MANNED. The report that steps would be taken at an early Tate to man the Niobe is confirmed. The naval service department is issuing a call for volunteers from among the ex-navy men living in Canada. They are to be used in man ning the Canadian cruiser Niobe for coastal duty on the Atlantic. A num- be; 01 of.ers have already been received and 400 more are desired. An important official announcement was made tonight that the government will impose a censorship of cables and wireless messages with the ob- ject of preventing the sending out of news which might be to the advantage oi enemies of Great Britain. PJ.A--S COMPLETED FOR MOBILIZATION. The cabinet council sat until 10:30 tonight. When the ministers adjourned Premier Borden said he had nothing new to announce, lie said that the government had received nothing from the imperial authorities within the last few hours ami intimated that the government would not have an important announcement to make until action is taken involving Great Britain in war. It is understood the cabinet was deciding on the places for the mobilization of Canadian forces.

Sir Kdward Grey dispelled the shadows of doubt which flickered over the triple entente in the minds of many Liberals by exposing some milestones in the history of the rapproachmeiit, revealing it as essentially a national one with Trance, without definite obligations. Finally, one of the tremendously questions -a question upon the answer of which the British empire and the whole world are hanging���Whether the government considers that Germany's policy compels Great Britain to wage war. the foreign secretary left an impression ot doubt. That doubt may re.lect the mind of a cabinet not wholly unanimous and the inference drawn by many is that Sir Kdward Grey's speech was a hint to Germany that if she will keep her soldiers off Belgian soil and her battleships away from the const of France, that will be the price of Great 'Britain's armed ni/ttrality. PATRIOTIC OUTBREAK IN LONDON. The first outbreak of patriotic enthusiasm since the possibility arose of Knglaiid's becoming involved in the war occurred in London tonight. Crowds of Englishmen and Frenchmen marched through the streets in the Wesl Knd, waving flags and singing the National Anthem. When they reache.' Buckingham palace in response to a great outburst of cheering, the kin*.' and queen and I'rincess Mary appeared on the balcony and bowed acknowledgement of the deminstratlon of loyalty. This did not satisfy the crowds, which chanted "We Want King George" to the tune of the "Westminster Chimes" and sang "Rule Britannia." This finally brought the king and queen out. again They were accompanied by the I'rince of Wales and received another noisy greeting. The demon:'(ration lasted several minutes and for a long time after that the crowds continued to sing patriotic songs. King George and Queen Mary were also heartil. cheered when they drove tn the parks in the afternoon, and great crowds remained for hours around the palace, the house of parliament and Downing street. The people generally were undemonstrative, apparently being more curious than excited. As evening drew on. however, an anxiety as to the attitude the government intended to adopt increased, the people became more excited and Hon. Winston Spencer Churchill, as he walked from the gallry to th commons was greeted with cries of "Good Old Winston." Premier Asquith was greeted lu a similar manner and escorted trom his home to the precincts of the house by a cheering crowd and other members of the cabinet as well as members of the house, received a cheer as they passed into the historic building to hear what England Intended to do in the hour of her crisis.

By breaking faith in her invasion of Luxemburg, Germany is taken by high international authorities to have treaty of London of 1867.

Captain Cliff's idea Is to nave a detachable pontoon on the stern of the ship, that can be released by an officer by means of levers. It takes but one minute to make lt slip smoothly into the sea, taking with It. in perfect safety up to three thousand passengers. Although the model, which is a miniature of the Titanic, had to be worked "from shore" this morning, it answered well to signals, in spite of the fact that quite two feet of water or more was required to give the demonstration full effect. It was made to sink in turn, as the Kmpress, Titanic and Volturno sunk. Only once did the pontoon refuse to act properly, and that was a case of defective handling.

Belgian frontier in the face of the protest of the King~of the Belgians and in spite of his prompt refusal to give them free passage through his country, the Kaiser has committed a second warlike act against the European powers and particularly against Great Britain, who is|a8" Belgium's protector in the European congress and to whom the King of the Belgians has appealed for aid. The explanation of the German ambassador that the passage of the Kaiser's army to Belgian soil need not be taken as an act of war against Belgium, but as a result of French initiative against the Germans, is an exceedingly weak attempt to hoodwink Great Britain since the French armies, no matter how powerful massed on the western frontier of Belgium, have not yet been reported ,i?fu1,,hr,E fr to have crossed the line. In this, therefore, as in practic- r tls "ne ally all other directions since the crisis arose in Europe, the Germans have shown an utter disregard for their national honor and an over-weening desire to p'-omote a conflict, while at the same time they have vainly striven to cast on Russia and France in turn the onus of the responsibility for the present acute state of affairs. Both these daring breaches of faith confirm previous estimates of German intentions with regard to France and Russia and discount almost to the vanishing point her statement that she did her best at Vienna to preserve the peace of Europe. On the contrary, by her invasion of Luxemburg and by her traversing of Belgium, she has made patent the fact that she is acting along the line.1, of a carefully-prepared plan, a traitorous plan conceived while Europe, lying at peace, believed the Kaiser to be .-'" keeping in letter and spirit the agreements for neutral territory to which his country had subscribed. city of unorganized labor, working I we taking the matter In hand conditions are good and wages liberal i Yesterday K.

At a special meeting called by the Provincial Liberal executive committee in the board of trade rooms yesterday afternoon, the feeling was general that this would prove to be the case, and it was formally expressed in a resolution moved by F. C. Wade, K. C, and seconded by S. S. Taylor. The resolution, a copy of which was forwarded to Sir Wilfrid, was in part as follows: "Resolved, That this convention of Liberals, held for the purpose of preparing for the reception of the Rt. Hon. Sir Wilfrid Laurier, is deeply impressed with the danger now menacing the empire, and feejs that at a time of such a threatened calamity it is beyond all things manifested. All the museums and galleries in Paris have been closed, the various staffs having gone to war. All possible measures have been taken to insure that Paris will not lack for food. Special trains have been reserved for the transportation of foodstuffs, particularly milk. In the event of the home supply becoming inadequate, a decree suspending the prohibition on the importation of foreign fresh meat wil appear in the official gazette tomorrow, thus insuring arge supplies from Argentine and other parts of the world in the near future. Severe regulations are being rigorously applied against persons attempting to profit in the present state of affairs by increasing the price of necessities of life. According to official telegrams the Germans have invaded French territory at three points at least, but there still is no official rupture.

Son 01 Wealthy Peasant. This modern FUchaiieu is the son of a fairly wealth peasant of Tobolsk. Ile had but little schooling and led an uneventful life until 80 years old, when he developed regilious fervor, became a lay monk and went on a pilgrimage. At the monasteries he via- iteil he picked up some learning and also managed to receive a letter of Introduction to Bishop Tbeofan at St. Petersburg. This was in 1300. Through the influence of the bishop the peasant began to meet the Influential people of the city and court. His mystic philosophy created interest, and he had the gift of repartee and polite conversation. At first Rasputin stuck to his peasant garb, in which lie made a picturesque figure But soon he took up an elegant style of dressing and living, which excited the envy of Bishop The- I pfan. The bishop obtained an order to exile Rasputin to Siberia. Hut not only did Rasputin's appeal to the czar save him, but caused the bishop to be dismissed to Poltowa without even time to see his dying father. Other powerful officials tried to check the advance of Rasputin only to find themselves in disfavor. Ilas- putin became the intimate friend of the royal family, gave orders to the ministers and conducted himself as the supreme power. The only successful attempt to Induce tiie court to send Rasputin away resulted disastrously for the plotters. Before leaving Rasputin warned the empress that misfortune was sure to follow. When the heir to the throne fell ill the frightened empress recalled the favorite in haste. | Since his return Rasputin's power has continued to grow. His counsel ' is called for in deciding every fines- I tion of importance, lt is said on high. I authority that he brought about the : ministerial change last year that Bav- ed Russia from a war with Austria. He lived as a prince with a magnifi- I cent villa at \,altu. In Crimea. One ol his daughters by his peasant wife is being educated in an aristocratic girls' I college In St. Petersburg and is chief companion of the emperor's daughters. Rasputin is even repor'ed to address the czar as "thru!" and "thee," J j 0 freedom denied even the grand I dukes. A month ago Rasputin was ordained ! a priest by a minor bishop of his native district. This act has aroused j the antagonism of the powerful heads J Of the church. It is with these big ecclesiastics that Rasputin will now I have to deal In holding his position. countries on the continent Transpacific trade will also Increase consider ably, and I can see no reason why the entire countrj and the northwest iu particular should not derive much material advantage from such a serious undertaking aa war."

Maxwell Merry About two million families in Canada use everyday, at least, one domestic product or another, which is advertised. Tha| is to say, they wash with a certain soap, drink a certain tea, eat a certain breakfast food, take a certain medicine or go to bed on a certain mattress, when they would have used a different soap, tea, food, medicine or mattress, if the particular kind which, in fact, they do use. had never been advertised. But not one of these two million families habitually use any one of these or of the hundreds of other advertised articles because it was advertised. The reason is quite different. These advertised articles are used because the users like them. If a woman once tastes a tea that she does not like, no amount of advertising will make her drink it again. If a woman washes her face with a soap that injures her complexion, advertising will never induce her to change her opinion in regard to that particular soap. You can introduce your goods by advertising that it is the quality of the goods themselves that keeps the door open to them. Thus we arrive at a bed rock. It is the merit of the goods advertised which sells the goods. Clever advertising will sell good merchandise, but no advertising will sell twice to the same person merchandise that is not, or is not believed by that person to be, worth the money. Here we come to a curious mistake held by people whose own practice should show them their error. I mean the common idea that advertising- will sell everything���that it is noisy advertising and not merit that sells the goods. As I have frequently stated in these articles, the simple explanation of an article and the special features that are likely to appeal to the public is the best advertising that can be used. Big words and resounding phrases may look good to the advertiser, but they don't sell goods. The shortest words and the shortest sentences tell the tale of any product better than the most academic story that could ever be written.

The appeal of the board of park commissioners of Central Park for a grunt in order to improve the ground.. fronting the agricultural hall, was laid river for three weeks. Councillor Miiniy pleaded that the sum of $200 lie set aside for that purpose but the three weeks' hoist carried. Several property owners' made complaint that instead of their land being assessed as improved property it was made out as *Viid land with a consequent increase in taxation. Houses are hull, on the lots the petitioner^ alleged. The clerk informed the council that it would be impossible to make a refund after the court nf revision had completed its work, which led Heeve Kraser to come forward with a desire to have the department responsible for such errors investigated. Nothing was done, however. The ('. N'. R. wrote again to the council explaining 'hat land along the Fraser river was for railway purposes nnd therefore was exempt from taxation until 1924 according to the railway act.
