QUEBEC'S GREAT PAGEANT..
11.1.rn,111.0,.•
Three Thousand Performers In the
Tableaux.
For the greatest pageant ot modern
times, that to be given next month on
the eeene of Wolfe and Mentealtn'a
bloody fight on the heights of Quebec,
when the city observes the tercenten-
ary celebration of the founding of the
settlement, 3,000performers aee now
being recruitei
d n Quebec, Montreal
and Ottawa. They will shortly com-
mence their rehearsals and drill under
the direction of Freak Laseelles, who
was the master of the Oxford pageant
last year and who has gone to Quebec
at the special invitation of his friend,
Earl Grey, Governor-General of Can-
ada.
"There is no other' such stage in the
world for dramatic pageantry as the
Plains of Abrahana,' said Mr. Las-
eelles recently, "where' the grandeur
et the natural scenery defies descrip-
tion and where the 20,000 spectators
on the grand stand, facing the St.
Lawrence 300 feet below, at a point,
'Ober() 'Wolfe's* highlanders clambered
up the heights, will be able to See at
the grand finale ot the perfornaance the
combined navies of three great pone-
consieting of twenty to thirty men-
of-war, appearing on the scene to Are
a deafening salute to the past, the
present and the future of the Cana-
dian nation
.."The speetacle will he rriven in the
presence of the heir to the British
crown, the vice-president of the Unit-
ed States and the representatives .of
the President of the French republic
and of ttie families of the French and
'Bnglish generale who :met, 'there in •
mortal combat a century and a half
ago," '
Mr, Lascelles has: been asked to exe'
plain what- the coming pageant will
be like, what historic scenes are to be
portrayed and how they are to be rep-
resented inthegreat open air drama.
This in part is what he said:
"From the foot Of his statue, where
stands for all time the bronze figure
of - the great Champlain, stepping
ashore, as it Were, as he did so long
ago to take possession of this new
country of the west, the Prinoe of
Wales and Mr. Fairbanks, with other
illustrious guests,. will see pass in pro-
cession before them all the great men
and women who have made Canada
what it is, and later on, on the Plains
of Abraham, they will' see the living
pictures of the • great events of those
Perla' days. • '
•"On the banks .of that river this
summer we shall see again, as Cartier
saw nearly. 400 years ago, a cluster of
wigwams' set beneath the trees. Away
on the broad waters of the .river many
feet bole's'swill come. the little boats
with Cartier and his crew, their names
still preserved and their descendants
impersonating them.
"Then weare transported to the
court of France, the 'gardens at Fon-
tainebleau, and high on the white
charger, trapped with cloth of gold,
rides the proud figure of Francis I. as
we see him in pie -tures painted when
he lived. Around hien; clad in rich
colored Velvets .and bromides, are the
ladies ; and gentlemenof his court,
some hundreds on horse and on foot,
and Cartier, with three of the Indians
with him, tells of the wonders of the
country from which he has come.

Engineer Prelims to Save Victims
From Death In Replria
Mr. john S. Fielding, consulting en.
gineer of Toronto, discussing the ire-
quent loss of life at Niagara as a re -
suit of people being swept over the
usoatYisc4 that a Mr. Brogan, a
Buffalo barrister, has written to
President Roosevelt in regard to
stretehing-a cable across Niagara riv-
er as protection to boats that may
drift down towards the Pans. I tun
very glad to see that someone is tak-
ing this matter up. Several peals ago
I wrote to a member ef our Dominion
Parliamenh, pointing out to him that
the Falls in this regard are exactly
in the conditions the Indians left
them, and at the present time with a
rich nation on either bank , both of
which boast of having solved great
Probleens for the improvement of man-
kind, It is not very creditable that
nothing has been done to. help any
unfortunates who may get into the.
power of the treacherous waters above
the Fella.. I have also Written the
matter up in The Engineering jour-
nal, of Toronto at different times, and
have a design. for an arch boom bridge
with a great number of tag ropes
hangiag down that I. am, sure would
be effective,
"My fleet idea was the erection of
two towers carrying cables similar to
suspension bridge construetion, with
horizontal cables just above the water
and supported by vertical Ca.bles up
to the main one. These lower hori-
zontal 'cables to Garry several lines
of pulleys to take a small cable carry-
ing tag Topes, aatt the whole thing
placed at an angle of 45 degrees across
the raver so that anyone grasping one
of these ' tag ropes would ,he carried
' forward and across. It may be that
the arch pontoon boom, Reciting up-
stream from Goat Island to the Cana-
dian shore and from Goat Island to
the American shore, would be better
than the cable way; but with two rich
'Governments at the head of the mat-
ter I cannot See Why both should not
be built. Of course, great precaution
must be taken or life would be lose
in the construction of these things,
and in the maintenanee, but this pos-
sibility should not weigh in the bah,
ance against some arrangement. to
stop what -I arn creditably informed
equals an average toll of one life a
month: I think our Premier, Sir
Wilfrid Laurier, would act in cone
junction with President -Roosevelt in:
furthering such a scheme." '

ONTARIO NEEDS RIM.
Province Can Employ All the ildle
Lebo;ers In the Eget.
Stick to the Ontario farms is the
advice which is now being handed out
by the immigration officiate in To-
roteto to farm laborers Who express a
desire to go out west on the 'harvest.
era' excursions, the dates of which
are soon to be announced by the rail-
ways. After !the experience gained
lest winter when 'Ilea were walking
Omit the • streets ol.Teronto looking
for work the immigration officers at
the Union Station are now enceurag-
ing men who call upon theM to go
on the harvesters' excursions to the
west. The, date e of the excursion for
this year have not been fixed by. the
-railways, but already there have been
a number Of inquiries at the Toronto
immigration offices as to the preened
for, week and the probable cost of
transportation. Those whose minds
are made up to go west are referred
to the railways for information as the
locae .officers are only supplying. men
,to the fennel* of Ontario and with
but few exceptions to those hying
west of Cobourg. .
There appears to be a good demand.
foe good farm laborers in all parts of
the province, despite the fact that
2,000 persons have been placed on
farnas since January. last, when the
Dominion, Government officials took
over the offices at the Union Station.
It was pointed out • that many "men
teat year gave up positions here to go
on the harvesters excursions, and in
most instances they • drifted back here
without money or friends and were
out of work most of the winter.
With the sons of farmers it is not
so. They are usually attracted to the
west priniarily through a desire to
see thecountry, and these excursions
afford .them a splendid opportunity,
the expenses of the trip being made
by working for fanners. When they
are ready .to return they invariably
come .back and go on their, parents'
farms in Ontario. Those farm. labor-
ers- who now have work in this pro-
vince are advised to remain, being
told that they will in all •probability
be better, off in the long run ,if they
decide to stick to the Ontario farms.
"Ontario has a big crop to harvest,
and men are needed here just as well
as in the west,'" said one official, in
discussing the farm, labor situation
