Albert Venn and Mr. Ilollaud Drowned In
Lal:o Desehene..
Ottawa, Sept. 21.—Albert Venn, aged
nineteen years, son of Mr Geo. G. Venn,
and William Holland, 21 years and 11
months, eldest son of 11r. Geo. Holland,
to -day leo at the bottom of Litke Des -
chem. They were drowned while cross-
ing the lake from Aylmer yesterday after-
noon about 4.30. Willie Hollancl sank
about 9.30, and Albert Venn about an
hour later. Willie Ross Jamieson, son of
Mr. Si, A. Jamieson, lives to tell the
story, which is very broken owing to his
weak condition, he having been in the
cold water from 4.30 yesterday afternoon
until 9 o'clock this morning, when be
drifted ashore about two miles from
Britannle. When Mr. Jamieson found
the shore he lay upon the sand in so en-
feebled a condition that he could not
stand, and reached home at 6.50 this
horning, and now lies very near the
point of death. The three young men,
Mr. Jamieson, Mr. 'Venn and Mr. Hol-
land, prepared about 2 o'clock yesterday
afternoon to sail for Aylmer. Mr. Hol-
land took his boat, "The Lady of the.
Snows," and the three sailed out of the
bay at 13rittanie. There was a stiff wind
blowing at the time. The whitecaps were
rolling. but the young men thought the
day a delightful one for a sail. They
were all good swimmers. They reached
Aylmer safely after a very pleasant trip
across the lake. Leaving their friends at
.Aylmer, they started on the return trip
about 4 o'clock. When about a mile and
a half from Aylmer, opposite Blueberry
Point, an attempt was made to put on
more canvas, a racing jigger, which
proved too much for the light craft. The
boat was thrown to one side and dipped
water, and the boys, in an effort to right
her, jumped to the opposite side, causing
it to capsize and sink. It is thought that
the water choked Holland, and caused
him to lose his grip and fall overboard.
Jamieson made several endeavors to put
him on the boat again, but Holland soon
lost bis strength and sank from view.
Venn is supposed to have dropped off
shortly afterwards, Jamieson, who is a
medical student, managed to hold on to
the boat, and during the long hours of
the night drifted through tho cold waters
of the lake in an almost unconscious
condition, olinging to the boat Some-
where about 2 o'clock this morning he
was cast ashore at a point a short dis-
tance above the lighthouse, where be
lay until daylight this morning, when he
revived sufficiently to crawl home in an
almost nude condition. After telling a
few of the particulars he became uncon-
scious.
A letter has been received at the Cus-
toms Department from Collector of Cus-
toms Davis at Forb Cudahy, who was
sent up to the Yukon in September of
last year. He sends down a remittance of
$12,800 duty, of which $4,000 was in
gold, and went direct to the mint at San
Francisco, where it will be converted
into bullion, This totals $15,000 which
has been sant to the department from
Fort Cudahy in loss than a year that the
customs office has been established there.
Mr. Davis attends to collections at Daw-
son City, a distance of between 50 and
-75 miles from Cudahy, and the most of
his collections come from the companies.
Many individuals have escaped payment
altogether. The letter contains no new
intelligence. It is dated July 26.
Mr. W. B. Scarth, Deputy Minister of
Agriculture, has received a letter from
his son, who is an inspector in the
mounted police force at Fort Cudahy.
The letter is dated the 28th of Jdne. As
an illustration of the wealth of the Klon-
dike Mr. Scarth says that he knew a
man who bought a half interest in a
claim for $40,000. He had from March
until September to pay it in two instal-
ments. He, however, paid it in two
months from his return from the claims,
or at the rate of about $800 per day.
There were, when he wrote, about 1,000
people looking for claitns who could not
get them. Scurvy, he said, is prevalent.
Mr. Fred White, controller of the
mounted police, also received a letter
from Inspector Constantine. It was
merely a statement similar to that tele-
graphed a few days ago about the police
having got sufficient supplies for the
winter.
Because the Globe used the vague
and meaningless phrase, " It is time
fora change," as a key note during
the Dominion campaign of 1S96, it now
h'ls the impudence to say that Con-
servative newspapers should not use
in the coming campaign, the expres-
sive epigram, "Ontario's best intrests
demand a change." What monopoly
Lae the Globe upon the English lang
ire that other journals may not use
w phrase that suits the occasion, even
though one word of the Globe,s key'
note is repeated ? Is not the latter
t::uch more replete and expressive than
the fernier ? We hesitate not to say
that it contains volumns tmore truth
than the Globe's phrase and will be
so found when the ballots are counted
at next provincial election. It is cus-
tomary in these modern days for
parties to adopt a slogan or shibboleth
in political battles, The Conservatives
in Provincials and Dominion cam-
paigns have bad such and so have the
Liberals, Does the Globe forget when
it used to sing the battle song of its
party,
Ontario, Ontario,
The traitor's hand is on thy throat
Ontario, Ontario,
Referring to J, Israel Tart and his
Tory friends of that day.
How would it do to repeat that par-
axot song just now ?
Or how about a more recent cam-
paign slogan,
" Has the National Policy made you
rich."
How quickly the Globe dropped this
when a number of Reform manufac-
turers, such as W. Patterson of Brant-
ford, and others, were twitted by their
political opponents with the truth of
the query!
Is the kev-note of the Conservative
party in the coming provincial cam-
paign portentous?
Does it express the true feeling of
the electorate of Ontario toward:the
Hardy administration ?
Will it be the rallying -cry of thous-
ands of independent voters all over the
province, and will it be the silent moni-
tor to thousands of unobstrusive, dis-
cernir g citizens, when the opportunity
presents itself to pronounce upon the
course of Mr. Hardy and his colleagues
in the government of Ontario?
Never was an epigram more correct-
ly applied. Twenty-five years of rule
by one party, with the chief of that
party in whom the people had confi-
dence transposed to another arena,
and a successor in whom people never
had confidence reigning in his stead,
is quite enough. Governments like
individuals have their day of useful-
ness and are then laid aside, It is not
iu the best interests of any country
that one party should be always in
•'Opposition. The world's history shows
this and Ontario is no exception to the
rule.

road. Every field is an antity by itself
being unlike in size and shape to any
other field in all the world. And every
lane and road winds in and out in a
serpentine way, that is the acme of
romance..
And every lane is an avenue of
green trees, and countless thousands of
miles of green hedge, no two fields,
lanes or hedges being alike, all goiug
to make a scene that thrills you with
ecstacy. Nothing is regular in rural
England but its extreme irregularity.
Every farm house is of red brick slate
or tiled roof, and the only drawback to
a Canadian or an Australian or a South
ern Yankee is the absence, in all this
lovliness, of any verandahito the Eng-
lish farm house. It is sterile in its
plainness. Aud the thatched stacks
are in the stack yard, within a rod or
two of the house. And you think that

lovers' lane, and rural England cap.

for youth and vigor, a fleet horse and a
bag of gold, to seek adventure and
amusement amidst the hills acd dales
of merrie England. And you conclude
also that there are not ten acres of
level land in all England, one eternal
succession of ups and downs. Not a foot
of land unused And you see a field
of wheat in shock, with the shocks so
thick that they can hardly get room to
stand on the place of growth. No two
bricks in rural England are alike, and
no one brick of a uniform color, all are
mottled and specked.
Amidst it all you wonder no longer
why an Englishman loves the old land
and is proud of the land of his birth,
Rural England is a glorious ground
on which to breed a noble race. No
wonder, Sir, that England has poets
and painters and artists of all degrees.
And when you think of all the births
and loves and deaths in rural England
during all the centuries, you worship
its antiquity.
The average field would be less than
three acres. No field is, square and each
field is hedged. An eternal succession
of farm houses, villages and towns,
smoke stacks and the greenest of green
fields. Think of the sight in the 200
miles from Liverpool to London. Then
you whirl into Euston station and are

ANDREE'S BALLOON.
Thr Third Carrier Pigeon From the Polar
Adventurer.
Copenhagen, Sept. 20.—A despatch
received hero from Hammerfest, the
northernmost town of Europe, in Nor-
way, says the whaling ship Falken has
brought there the third pigeon despatch
from Prof. Andree, the aeronaut, who
left the Island of Tomsoe in a balloon on
July 11 last, in an attempt to cross the
Polar regions.
The message brought by the Falken
reads: "July 13, 12.30 p.m., latitude,
82.2 north; longitude, 12.5 east. Good
voyage eastward. All well."
New York, Sept. 20.—Mr. Evelyn B.
Baldwin, the meteorologist of the Peary
expedition, '93-4, was interviewed to -day
by the Associated Press regarding the
latest pigeon despatch froin Andree. Mr.
Baldwin said: "This message indicates
that Andree had safely crossed the 150
miles or so of open water which extends
from the north coast of Spitzonbergen to
the beginning of the pack ice. When
Andree wrote it he was sailing over the
great frozen sea which reaches continu-
ously to and beyond the North Pole. It
is evident that the loss of the three guide
ropes which took place on the day An-
dree started had not prevented him from
guiding the balloon. Some expert
aeronauts feared that this accident might
bring speedy disaster. It is also evident
that the unbelie sing aeronauts who de-
clared that the gas in the balloon would
never stand the temperature of the pack
ice were wrong. If the extreme cold
caused any perceptible change 'in the
gasps such action would have taken place
before Andree wrote this last message,
and ii the cold had done the work so
much feared. Andree would not have said
'All well:'
"It is significant to note that Andrea
was going eastward, the direction he in-
tended to take. This is a straw which
helps to verify his reported safe reappear-
ance in Arctic RRbssia.
"The tenth of\degrees given in his
message proved that.cAndree was not only
able from the balloon\ to ascertain his
whereabouts, but dick so with remark-
able accuracy.
"The first three days ere looked upon
as being the most perilou' and important
of the entire journey. A •dree's ability

augurs better` than the lay

neath. And you remember that one of
the ll'e:•.icy infants was named "Nutty,"
but of what sex Nutty was you are left
to conjecture. Then you Lind close to
the wall, where the eternal (ramp of
feet cannot wear it, a carved flag re-
presenting a man in his coffin, head
and feet above and below the grave
habiliments with a torch in thehand
by the side, and on the wall you read
that this was "Laurentius" and that he
was buried in that spot and the flag
carved over him in 1107, A. D. And
a guard informs you that the oldest
grave with a date to it that he has dis
covered dates back to S00. And thea
you feel that you would like to read
again Walter Scott's Monastery and
other tales of monkish times, because
you feel that you could appreciate it
as you never did before. And the old
iron cell doors look as strong as they
did iu the saintly days of yore. Aud
you reserve the inside of the Abbey
for another glorious day.
Then a grill of beefsteak and you
saunter back to the hotel and wander
forth again with your Australian friend,
And you find that your friend has plen-
ty of quiet assurance and self confi-
dence and you saunter into the Hotel
Cecil, the most cosmopolitan hotel on
earth, and you find the smoke room,
and ydu order your Scotch or your
lemon squash. And you find magnat-
es of the world all about you, And
you are astounded to see an elderly
gentleman smoking and another in an
alcove drinking coffee, with a lady be-
side him. And other ladies wander in
and out freely and you call the waiter,
order another squash and tip him a
threepence and ask him the meaning
of it all. And he telly you, Sir, that he
has been Sir, for thirty years an Eng
lish waiter and he never knew of it be-
fore. It is an innovation in London.
The Hotel Cecil inaugurated it. And
the custom has his hearty approval.
These ladies are the wives or daugh-
ters of the gentlemen beside them.
Then we saunter up flights of marble
steps, with carpets so soft and thick
that you cannot hear your own tread,
and find the cffices on the fourth floor,
and sit down and look at the flowers
and the statuary and the carved ceil-
ings, and you conclude that this is a
place for the gods to dwell. And you.
conclude that when you have made
your million you will come here with
your family and live.
Then Sir in the morning up to the
strand and you climb to the top of a
London bus, and take your first ride
out Shoreditch way. Aod you pass the
Bank of England, St. Pauls, the law
Court and other notable places on the
way. Your head is twenty feet above
the pavement and a line of busses in
front and behind you and a constant
'stream of them going the other way
and everything turns to the left in
England, and in an hour's ride Sir you
have an admiration for the London
driver, that places him as the greatest
Jehu on earth. Every second apparent
disaster comes in the shape of collision
that is impossible to avoid to your mind
but cabby is equal to all emergencies
and a collision on strand never occurs
You are rushing along in mid-air and
busses rush past you so close that the
top passengers could easily shake hands.
And you conclude that on the top of
the London bus is the most democratic
place in civilization. Every -body good
humored and all classes intermingle
with a freedom and courtesy that pleas
es while it astonishes you. Then your
friend having a friend over at Guy's
Hospital, you get a cab and run over,
and you rush into the theatre. of the
Hospital and your friend rushes out
again, and you find yourself fascinated
by the sight of an old man taking
chloroform through the wind -pipe, and
a surgeon is removing his jaw and
tongue. Then you walk across Lon-
don Bridge, and find that what you
took for London Bridge last night was
not the real thing at all. Then on
the other side the monument built in
1677 to commemorate the great London
fire. And you pay your twopence and
start up the winding stairs, but get
tired at one-tenth of the distance and
retrace your steps. And of course you
are dead dog tired at night and sleep
like Rip Van Winkle.

Measuring Vessels For Their Outft—What
Ship Cushions Are tirade Of.
When a new vessel is ready to be fitted
out with her cushions, she is measured
for them, not as a church would be, fol
a certain number of cushions of a spec•
ified size to supply a certain number of
pews, but every space in which a cush-
ion is to be placed separately. On a
large 'vessel there might be a number ei
cushions of the same dimensions, but
marine architecture is such that cush-
ions may be required on the same vessel
in a great variety of forms, and of vary.
ing dimensions even within given lines,
narrower at ono end, for instance, than
at the other. And cushions are made to
fit around masts, and around the round-
ed ends of cabins, and in other spaces
where they must be made in the form
of an aro of a circle, and ship cushions
are made V shaped and in other shapes
to fit into various nooks and jogs.
All cushions aro made with a vertical
front edge, and most of them are made
with a vertical roar edge, but ship
cushions are often made with a rounded
or beveled rear edge to fit handsomely
against the side of the vessel, whiob
serves as a back to the seat, but may
slope away at a sharper angle than seat
banks commonly do.
Practically every boat that is set
afloat, whatever she may be, big or lit-
tle, is individually measured through-
out for her cushions. The same materi.
als for stuffing cushions that are used
on land are used on the water—hair,
moss, cotton and so on—and ship cush-
ions are sometimes stuffed with cork
clippings for their buoyant properties.
The materials most commonly used in
covering church cushions aro damasks
and reps, the damasks more generally.
The material most commonly used in
covering ship cushions is mohair plush,
which is made in various colors and
qualities. Leather is also used in cover-
ing ship cushions, especially in smok-
ing rooms and chartrooms and aboard
yachts, and it costs little, if any, more
than a fine quality of mohair plush.—

Modern Awnings.
"Scarcely any objeot is more conspic-
uous in the summer season than the
awning," said Mr. Biffieton. "In none
is our progress in civilization more ap-
parent. Awning stripes are made now-
adays in a great variety of styles and in
various colors and shades of color. It is
quite possible to get an awning to match
a building, or one that shall contrast
with it agreeably. I have seen lately
a large brownstone building equipped
with awnings having alternate stripes
in two shades of brown, shading admi-
rably with the stone, the whole produc-
ing a massive, harmonious and pleasing
effect. I have seen buildings of light
colored bricks with light stone or terra
cotta trimmings equipped with awnings
in stripes of darker colors and of some-
elhat fanciful design as to the width
and grouping of the stripes, giving an
effect somewhat striking perhaps, but
decidedly picturesque.
"The fact is that in the hands of a
competent person the awning may now
easily be made a great embellishment of
the building, and properly put up, as
indeed most of them are nowadays, it
becomes a thing of beauty and a joy, if
not forever, at least for the summer
months."—Exchange.
