London Oct. 8,—Du Maurice the artist -novelist, author ef "Trilby," who has been critically i11 for some time from heart disease, died ot 2.30 ocloek this morning. His end was painless, and the passed away sur- rounded by friends. The illness of Da Maurier was pathetic in the extreme. For days he bad been hovering between life and death, at intervals conversing with 4 his friends about his work. Upon one oceasion ,ti friend at the dying man's bedside referred to the sue - cess of "Trilby"as a book and as a play, whereupon, Du Maurier replied: "Yes it has been successful but the popularity has killed me at the last." One of Du 11taurier''s• friends who was present at his death, said: "Ile died almost as tragically as Svengali At the zenith of Trilby's fame Sven- gali became a vietim to heart disease and Du Maurier has gone the same way. At the zenith of his popularity the author has secumbed to the heart trouble, from which be always suffer- ed, which suffering was accentuated ir by the constant succession of exciting incidents in. which the closing few scenes of his life were spent. Checks rained upon hien as his old heart trouble increased. This complicated by an affection of the lungs, took him off." A. TEN THOUSAND DOLLAR, PICTURE. It is doubtful if there is a larger ircle of delighted subscribers in the •hole world than those that have the eo d for- tune to be on the list, of thelaamil Herald and the Weekly Star of 'Moab real. The paper itself is simply grand. One would think the publisher would require a mint at his back to turn out such a paper as the Family Herald and Weekly Star is every issue, and it grows better and better each week. But most astonishing of all are the beautiful pre- miums that the publishers oceaestonally present to their subscribers. Their re- putation for this is as wide as tide con- tinent itself. This is said to pe the busiest season the Family Herald and Weekly Star has had since it was found- ed; and the year is to be eotntnemorated such a waythat will make newsier newspaper subscribers stand aghast. At -fin enor- mous exp.luse running far up into the thousends we hear that the publishers of the Earn ily Herald and Weekly Star have secured that world-wide' celebrity, "The Orphan's Prayer." It is to be roduce,l in twenty colors; and each amity Herald subscriber, renewal as well as new, will be eatitleu to one of thea] if they get on the list in time. How it can be done is the wonder. But the public Know the when the publish- ers of the Family Herald and Montreal Star promises a good thing, they live up to their promises. In referring to the burs of admiration elicited by the announcement of "The Orphan's Prayer" perhaps it may not be arntss to quote what with said by the great art house in Bostqn, Prang. S Co. Here are their own words:—'•-r'ull of Pathos, it tells its own story in its own way. We have not seen anything like it. We prophesy a great demand. This is praise indeed frons' such critics and j dges as the Prangs. Tradegy At Kingston. Kingston, Oct. 9.—George He,ii11 a colored convict from Windsor, sen- tenced to life imprisonment in King- ston Penetentiary, in 1886 has on several occasions violently assaulted the guards and his fellow prisoners. He was recently placed in the prison of , isolation for attacking guard Kerrigan. Guard Donnely reported Hewill for insubordination yesterday and Warden Metcalfe ordered his deprivation of light, the order was read to him, when he went into a rage, aid threatened Donnely with disembowelment if he reinoved the lamp. The dispute continued untill War- den Dietcalfe called on officers to re- move •tie" eonViet to the dungeon. The negro gripped the shears and cried the posse. There was an ex- yftilig five minutes while the guards parleyed with him, when he made a spring at one. After repeated orders to throw down his weapon there was a report and }Iewill fell back: on this bed. His head was pierced with a bullet entering under the eye. He oaths and tinned to Con pour forth impreeatiotls' until death relieved him.

GIVE DI;CIS IONS, Mitchell Oct. 8.—Much dissatifao• tion is expressed here as to the way in which the Judiciary Committee of the 0. L. A. is shutting out the Huron district, At the close of the district game Mitchell and Seaforth were tied for first place, A protest was entered against one of the Mitchell players, by. the Secretary of the Seaforth ()lab. He had claimed that Mitchell had played a Toronto man. The player that was charged appeared before the C. L. A. Com- mittee and denied that he hart play- with the Toronto team. The Secretary of the Mitchell Club also wrote Mr. Vance denying the charge Nothing was proved and yet the C. L. A. has seen fit to ignore this district, and although nearly six weeks have°passed has not yet made any decisison in the case. A week before the•date set for the last game between these two teams Mitchell wired President O'Loughlin that they would not accept a Sea - forth man as referee, and asked him to appoint one which he failed to do and Seaforth had • their mien. It looked very much as though the C. L. A. intend throwing down this dis- trict after this season. . If such is the case they might as well drop it out altogether, as there will be no team here next year un- less they receive better treatnient. Ween Baby was sick, we gave her Castorla.

Lima, Peru, Oct. 8.—A big fire start- ed. in Guayaquil, Ecuador Tuesday, which threatened to destroy the whole city, at 10 o'clock Wednesday morning the fire was still raging. Amon the liuildin s known to have Among g been destroyed are four banks, all the foreign consulates, all the hotels except one, two churches, all the principal business houses, the military barracks, and the arsenal. It is further stated that Guayaquil has been burned from the postoffice to the custom house the flames ex- tending from the bank of the river. The fire is' believed to have been of incendiary origin. Some arrests have been made. Many people lost their lives `during the conflagration, the losses are now estimated at 800; 000,000 scores ($54,400,000). The populace is furious and is demanding the prompt punishment of the guilty. Guayaquil is a bishop's see- and has nine churches, a college, a seminary and is the seat of several manufacturing .enterprises. The population is estimated at 40,000.

A young girl, who has shown con- siderable talent as a public reader went to London and applied for an engagement in a theatrical company. The manager was impressed with her talent, amateur as she was, and gave her a prominent part in a new play. It was her first appearance on the stave, she went entirely unknown, bat she pleased and even fascinated her audience. It was a most successful first night. The earliest inhpressions of this year girl's ability as all actress were fully confirmed,' The play drew crowded houses night after night, and here reception was e �. invariably Y heart and enthusiastic. She was talked: `about all over • London as an actress of subtle power and brilliant promise. This first success would have turned many a foolish head, but it merely sobered her and taught hero the nceessity for systematic study. She went one clay to one of the best teachers in London and led her 1� terms for a course of lessons. Mireii Catarrh Ha • Fever Colds, head- e ?

THE LIBERAL LEADLRSIIIP Loudon, Oct. 8—Lord lfose bery has written a letter . to• Themes Edward Ellis, M.P., and first whip of the Liberals, resigning the leadership of the party. The reason given for his lordship's:resignation is that he disagrees with Mr. Gladstone and other leading Liberals regarding the proper policy to be adopted in the eastern question. Lord Rosebery'e letter is dated at his seat, Dalmeny Part, Linlithgowshire, Oct. 6. In .the communication his lordship says: "The resent course of events makes it necessary to clear -the air. I find myself in apparent difference with a considerablemass of the Liberal party on the eastern question, and in some conflict with the opinion of Mr. Gladstone, who must neees- � sarily always exercise matchless authority with the party, while scarcely from any quarter do I receive,explicit support. This situ- , ation, except as regards Mr, Glad- stone, .is not altogether new but in .saving that I complain of no one and regret only that I should appear to divide the energies and try the t faith of the Liberals. The questions, however, are above and beyunti personal c nsideratic,ns, and when I ' speak, which I do this week, I tuuAt speak my mind without refe'ence to party• -Under those circumstances it it is best for the party and for iny- self that I speak not as a leader, but as a free man. Consequently, I beg! to notify you that the leadership of the party, so for as I gin concerned, is vacant, and that I resume my liberty of action. I can feel only the deepest, gratitude and regret at parting from you and those like you who have given me such loyal co- operati m ander circumstances so difficult."

In making up the bed one pnint that is especially insisted upon is tlir.t the under sheet shall be. ]lid smoothly and drawn over the mattress so tightly that no wrinkles can annoy the patient. For the invalid's bed this Is secured by pin- ning it to the mattress underneath.. Wille this may not bo necessary for the ordinary bed, it carries a suggestion of value,"especially for the nervous sleeper, to whom the loose wrinkles of a t•a'e- lossly made bed may bo a great distur- •bar, thnngh in hinny onses perhaps un- consciously so. This is particularly im- portant where the sheets are of linen, Fortunately, cotton ones are corning to be pretty generally reongnized as more oonducige to comfort and health. In making the bed, tuck the under sheet well under the mattress on one side of the bed, and then from the other side draw the sheet as evenly and as tightly as passible ,:cross the bed until it is perfectly smooth, and then tuck in this side also firmly under the mattress. Tho upper sheet should bo long enough to fold under well at the bottom; and at the top to leave a good margin to turn over the blankets or other covering to protect them. This is not only comfort- able, but tidy. .&*13 sty Screen. People. *lio occupy fiats resort to all manner ot make -shifts, malty of them turning out to be hits of real ingenuity.

Pins did not im- mediately succeed thorns as fastener's, but different appliances were used, such as hooks, buckles and laces. It was the latter half of the fifteenth century before pins were used in Great Britain. When first manufactured in England the iron wire, of the proper length, was filed to a point, and the other extremity twisted into a head, This was a slow process, ' and four or five hundred pins was a good day's work for an expert hand.

AIi.eh trouble might be saved if children Were taught, when very young, to use their tooth -brushes night and morning. The night cleansing is more important, as it gots' rid of the acids and particles of food that have ao• cannulated dnring the day, and which, if allowed to remain, cause decay. Warm water and a fairly hard brush should ho used. if children were taught, when quite young, that cleaning their teeth night and morning was as important as brushing the hair, or any other of the duties of the toilet, the habit acquired In youth would remain with them in triter years, and would, I feel sure, save then' much trouble and pain. Peach .:tu'r'n Made. Delicious peach marmalade may be made from very ripe, soft peaches, wiped calofully, lint not peeled; out in halves. remove the stones allow half a pound of sugar to every pni1114t of peaches. Pub the peaches in preserve kettle, add water to cover, and bring slowly to boil; stir , and mash the peaches ; Ada the sugar with i a handful of pettish kernels pounded to a poste; boil and stir until thick and smooth, being careful not to scorch; put away in gloss jars. Apple and pear Marmalade may be made in the same way. Batter for Fritters. Put four ounces of flour in a basin, make a hole in tho center of the flour, drop in the yolks of two eggs. Stir four tablespoonfuls of stale beer into one tablespoonful of salad oil. Pour this on to the yolks and stir gently In, taking care not to get it lumpy. Put white of one egg on a plate, beat it to a stiff froth, and stir lightly into the hotter. Use directly; when once the white to, added on, the froth sinks.
