NOTES AND COMMENTS
Daring the month of May, 93 fatalities
occurred to workingmen in Canadian
Industrial pursuits and 185 were ser-
iously. injured, Daring the month there
were fifteen trade disputes In existence,
en increase of two as compared with
Msy of last year. About 32 firms and
4,759 employees were affected, and the
lose of time in 'working days was ap-
proximately 26,357, as compared with
1277,425 in May 1908.
A heavy falling off in immigration
arrivals for the fret four months of the
year is shown in Government statistics,
attributed largely to the doing away
with ohasity assisted immigration. The
department is also more particular in
selection of prospective settlers. The
figures for the four mouths were 45;942,
tis compared with 56,897 in the same
period last year, a decrease of 14 per
cent. A total of 26 0e0 came from the
United States, thta showing an in-
crease.
The revenue np to date from the gov-
ernment system of annuities totals
$130 6100, and the total number of appli-
cations is 22S. The revenue of late has
averaged $20,000 a week, but one day of
last week $10,000 was received. The
system of annuities was inaugurated
only in September last, and the first few
months were necessarily denoted largely
to matters of organization. A number
of agents and lecturers have been en-
gaged, three in Ontario, two in Quebec
and one eaoh in Nava Scotia and New
Brans nick, while the West has not yet
not been provided for, The department
is about to enter upon negotiations with
the large mannfaoturers of the country,
suggesting the purchase of annuities for
their employes, or co-operating with the
latter in doing so.
Talkative Women
A writer in the Chicago Herald says:
Women should not be abased because
they love to talk. It is merely the na-
tural blowing Off or out of human en-
ergy, Women who have ranch work to
do hare less talking to do. Plenty of
work is a good silencer. The busiest,
raneat women become petty gabbers
when they go away on vacations and
their occupations are removed. Wheth-
er conversation is time wasted or fa-
cetted depends upon the kind of tonver-
sation yon are able to deliver

EXPRESS COMPANY PROFITS.
(Forest Free. Press )
The evidence before the Dominion
Railway Oomm'ueian hoe revealed the
astounding fact that all the real money
ever infested in the Oanadiau Empresa
Co. was the enm of $27,500; that the
valve of the plant le now $212,000 and
that the Company's net earniuga or pro•
fits en this valuation amounts to $212,.
000 per year, or over one hundred per
gent. prof;. It was shown that the
only real cash that watt ever invested in
the Dominion Express Co., was $24,500
and that the plant .is now valued at
$393,000 and the net earnings or profits
oa this valuation le over ninety-two per
oant, Evidence was produced to show
that the Canadian Northern Express Oo,
practically all owned by McKenzie &
Mann, make a clear profit of one hun-
dred per cent.
And still these same express com
genies claim that , they are unable to
pay taxee at the s+tme rate as other
business $rms have to pay. The express
companies in Ontario paid a total of
$5300 in taxes in 1207, while the express
companies in Michigan, with no greater
volume of business, paid $255,100 in taxes
the same year. We are easy here.
GREAT IS BRITAIN.
(Buffalo ,Courier.)
The imperial press congress that has
been in session in London will soon be
succeeded by the gathering of Govern.
went officials from all parts of the
Britisb Empire. The Government in
London and Englishmen generally are
uncommonly active and interested in
concerted steps to arouse the loyalty
of British subjects in all parts of the
world, and to give greater strength to
the position of Great Britain in, inter-
national affairs.
Many persons are unaware of the
enormous compass of the British Em-
pire. Great Britain is today sovereign
over 11,908,378 square miles, or nearly
one-fifth of the land surface of the
globe, and her subjects are not far
from 400,000,000, or more than one-
fourth of the population of the entire
world 1
The area of the British dominion is
distributed approximately as follows:
In Europe, 125,095 square miles; Amer-
ica, 4,000,000; Australasia, 5,000,000;
Africa, 2,500,000; Asia, 2,000,000.
The population ot the empire is dis-
tributed as follows; In Europe, 42,-
000,000; America, 7,500,000; Anetralia,
5.000,000; Africa, 43,000,000; Asia, 300,-
000,000. The white population is 56,-
000,000 and the colored 344,000,000,
The territory covered by the British
Empire very nearly equals the combined
possessions of the United States, France
and China.

DAIRY NOTES.
Good drinking water is as necessary
as good feed. A combination of both
fills the pail.
There is no best breed, Jerseys,
Guernseys, Holstein or Ayrshire are all
good when handled right.
Pat a little 011 meal in the ekimmiik
for the calf. It helps pay back part of
What yon rob him of.
The Lucky dairyman grows alfalfa. It
is a substitute for $25 a ton bran and
groats on his own farm.
Dehorn the calf with caustic potash.
Ten cents worth will dehorn 50 head.
Keep it in a bottle, tightly corked.
Is lack of feed, not help, preventing
iron from milking more cows? If so,
better investigate the silo.
Alfalfa growing and dairying form le
Oonibleation that takes more then one
panic to down. And the more dairy-
ing yon do, the mote alfalfa yon esu
tithe.

An incident of the Days of Stage-
coach Holdups.
QUICK WIT OF PAT CLOHESY.
The Trick by Which the Old Time
Mining Man of Colorado Saved Him-
self and Sacrificed His Fellow Trav-
elers and the Story Sequel.
"When the passengers in the old.
coaching days found themselves in the
clutches of the 'road agents' they in-
stinctively hurried, during the short
time that driver and guard were be-
ing put In a proper state of helpless-
ness,to secret money and valuables in
the first safe place that suggested it-
self," said a veteran Colorado mining
man. "But such precautions were use-
less, for there was small time and
smaller opportunity of place to hide
anything in a mere shell of a coach.
If a man was found without money,
they stripped him and searched the
stage as well.
"The experience of Pat CIohesy, an
old time mining man of Colorado, is
historic. One afternoon he took the
stage from Silver Cliff camp, bound
for the railroad. sixty miles away. In
the coach were a dozen other passen-
gers, none of whom knew him. As
they reached the narrowest part of the
gorge that leads out of Wet Mountain
valley a loud command of 'Hold up
your hands!' brought the stage to a
sudden standstill and every passenger
in it to n swift realization that unless
quid; actiuu was taken he would go
broke. Oue crammed Itis wad of bills
down bis boot leg; another thrust his
roll down the back of his neck; a third
took off his hat, put his wallet inside
and set it back on bis stead. Every
man Jack of them attempted to se-
crete his money except Pat Clohesy,
and Pat sat perfectly quiet.
"In a few moments a ritle barrel ap-
peared at the window, and there came
the order. 'Bands up and all out!' Out
the passengers tumbled and stood in
line with lifted hands. Pat at the far
end. When the searching highway-
man went through the first man he
found nothing. Irritated at this, he
started through the second. with the
same lack of success. :angry at this,
the bandit turned to his fellow robber,
who stood covering the line with his
Winchester.
'•'They have been tryin' to hide
their stuff, d -n 'em!' he exclaimed.
'We'll just make 'em strip, and then
we'll go through the stage. They'll
pay for puttin' us to all this trouble!'
"Then up spoke Pat Clohesy from
the far end of the line. 'Gentlemen,'
he said, addressing the highwaymen.
'I know you're in a burry, and I know
I'tn a poor miner with all my property
in the world just the S15 I've got -in
my pocket. If you'll leave me that lit-
tle roll, I'll tell you where these other
fellows have bidden their swag, so's
you can collect it quick and skip out.
Is it a bargain?'
"'Sure,' said the man with the
guarding rifle. Fifteen dollars meant
nothing to the band compared to the
risk. 'Well,' said Pat, pointing to the
first in line, 'that fellow's money is
stuffed down his right boot leg.'
"The holdup investigated and drew
forth a plump roll of bills from the
boot leg. 'That next man,' went on
Pat. 'bas got his money hid under the
hind seat in the stage.' The bandit
found a fat wallet stuffed under the
cushion. *The next has got his money
in his hat, and the next crammed his
stuff down the back of his neck, and
the next'- Pat went down the line of
them, while the highwayman drew
forth money from all manner of places.
Swiftly collecting their booty, they
bundled the passengers back in the
coach, set driver and guard back on
their seats and told them to go ahead.
not, however, before they bad given
Pat a twenty dollar hill and a hearty
slap of thanks on bis Irish back.
"The storm that broke over his bead
inside that coach after it bad rolled a
safe distance from the bandits threat-
ened his ver.' life before Ise could get
u hearing. Had it not been that the
robbers bad disarmed them all and
Pat was a buge man he never would
have got away alive.
"'Each of you figure up just how
much you've lost,' he said t6 his fel-
low passengers when at last they
would listen, 'and i'lt pay you back
not only what that Is, but an equal
amount in addition, for the bother I've
given you,' and he pulled from an in-
ner vest pocket a huge roll of bills.
In bewilderment the travelers counted
up their losses. Collectively it was
about $1,000. Pat peeled off two $1,000
bills from the balky mass or money
and, handing them to a responsible pas-
senger, asked him to make correct di-
vision When they reached the railroad.
"'rm sorry for the unpleasant quar-
ter hour I caused you,' he couttnued,
'but it Waadhe only thing I could do to
save myself. I hove just sold a trine
back in Silver Cilfr for $00,000 cash
and had no other way to bring the
money out except in my pocket, flare

fat troll. ''Wben I heard the holdups
