BY W. L. SMITE,
One of the most striking features in con.
nection with the late Industrial Exhibition
at Toronto was the display of agricultural,
mineral and other products sent from the
great, district of Algoma.
Arid,since it is not so very long since one
of the leading members of the House of
Commons' asked 41where is Algoma 9'' it may
be well to eornmenee thiso sketch with a
brief outline of the geographical position,
end extent of that dwcriet. Algoma, then,
stretches from French River on the ease to
Lake of the Woods and the international
boundary on the Twat; it extends north-
ward from south of Mauitontin Island to
James t3.sy ou the north, and includes about
4txe half of the total area of the Province .ef
Q.. , y
uteric. This district which Benda cal
One representative to the Commons, is di-
vided for purpose of re preseiatation in the
Legislature into East and West Algoma, and i
for the administration of justice int the
ske,1ndicial diistrio a of Rainy River, Tian: -

which are a sour* of wealth to
the Pcovinve, there aro hundreds of 'elle"

Mr. Macdougall, of the geoto^'ieol ourcoy,
says those Lrurentine llelie, which leak so
uninviting from the deck of a steamer, con.
Lain all the known mincrolle. Bat, what is
even more imlortaut, is the fact attested
by Prof. Bell, 'that anthracite cull exists at
Janne Bay. eo that we have this useful
article in oar own Province after all.
But although lumbering and mining will
undoubtedly long be Algouta's' principal
source of wealth, and although her splendid
fieherita furnithitveltbood for thousands and
sport for sit many more, stili it must not be
fargotteu that there aro immense'
traota of land in this great ter -
:troy capable of producing alt hinds of
farm produce and marry kicds of
FItV1T U A1iINDASCL,
Ms true the land is broken ; but on the
Manitoulin, along the barbs of the' Spanish,
Mieskrsaugua, Ttswsalon,in the rich valleys
of the Rxfny River a ttion and elecwhero
are found excellent fermr producing alt
k ndo of grain and roots. Ii'or the produc-
tion of the latter, :Algoma surpasses any
kart of Ontario, and samples of grain
shown at the Industrial Exhibition were
not ono whit behind those from the
great North Weak Small fruits, such
as currants, gooseberries, atrawberrks, eta.,
do exceedingly well on. the Manitoulin. Ne-
wham do crab treea carry such heavy loade,
and apples, pears, plums, grapes, etc., also
do well.
Practical illnatratlona of all these facts
were given in the exhibit made at the In-
dustrial ; an exhibit which will do mach to
make Algoma better known, and which re -
fleets credit on Capt. Smith, Fort William ;
D. F. Burk, PortArthnr ; and Chas. Wood-
ward, Gore Bay; who were mainly instru-
mental in getting it up.
A. Cane for Footpads.
A wicked and murderous walking Dane
was displayed in an avenue store the other
day. Its hollow covering was punctured
with at haat twenty-five holes, and behind
these were concealed as many sharp steel
blades. The object of the cane was at once
apparent. Suppose an unfriendly hand
seized it en a dark night. The owner of the
stick would simply draw it backward, and
to ! from out the little holes the knives
would fly to do their bloody, lacerating
work. No footpad would grasp that cane
more than once. The principle of the inven-
tion is not new. It is already used with
success in a patented watch guard, the
spikes of which spring out and hook them-
selves in your pocket when your watch
chain is pulled.
A Single Trial
Is all that is needed to prove that Poison's
Nerviline is the most rapid and certain
remedy in the world for pain. It only costs
10 cents for a trial bottle. A single trial
bottle will prove Nerviline to be equally
Efficacious: as an external or internal remedy,
and for pain of every description it has no
equal. Try 10 cent sample bottle. Sold by
druggists.. Large bottles 25 cents. Avoid
substitutes.
Punisllling an Eiepbltnt.
Bettie elephants lceaemble men in their
liability to sudden outbursts of passion, and
in their exhibition of remorse when, the
passion having subsided, they see the results
of their violent temper, An illustration of
an elephant's violence and Contrition is given
by General George Bell, in kis "Rough
Noted of an Old Soldier,' written white he
wax serving, in India„
Whi,io the party was in camp, a Mahout
went with hie elephant to cal forage. As
he was hinding it in bundles, the elephant
began to help hiintelf, and knocked about
the bundles already tied up.
The Mahout punished the beasts' for 'his
disobedierco by a •brow on the shins, which
so enraged the elephant that be seized rho
man witty this trunk, dashed him to the
ground, and trampled him to death.
No sooner head he killed hie keeper than
he repented, roared.. and bolted for the
julog a to bide himself. Six other elephants,
guided by their Maboute, followedbitn. ea
being driven ivie a corner he surrendered,
and ayes led into camp a prisoner,, Rua chains
were placed on kis legs.
Then carne hie puaishument,. An eleplaaaat
wsa placed on either side, each holiiug a
heavy lion chain. Aa the dead body of the
3lahcat, was laid on the grass batore him,
the elephant resred loudly, heiog perfeed i.

punish the murderer. Lifting the two
