ness than in working on salary as
an engineer, and he spent seven
years in -that business, being all the
time mare or less in touch with
Mackenzie, Mann and Ross. Re-
turning to Montreal, he directed his
energies to getting control of that
city's power and light facilities. He
first bought out the old Montreal
gas company. Then he acquired the
Royal Electric Company, and by
degrees buying out competing com-
panies or crushing them, he evolved
the present Montreal Light, Heat,
and Power Company, with its seven-
teen million dollar capital and its
almost absolute monopoly in the
city and district, .of Montreal.
Montreal Power is the monument
U. S. Holt has reared tor his prow-
ess as a financier. He knows
about thet conipany and its equip-
ment. He is the company's own. re-
sident engineer, and has traveled
all over the world improving his
knowledge of electrical engineering
problems.
He is also a bank president; be-
ing head of the Royal Bank. By the
way he has the unique distinetion
of ha,ving been president of two
banks; for he was -the first presi-
dent of the ill-fated Sovereign
Bank, and held that office for three
years. Sir Herbert is a director of
the C.P.R. and is a liberal invest-
or in stocks of any kind that have
a basis of inelustriseism. He is one
of the biggest of Montreal's finer

FRENCH SAVED BRITISH.
They Were Stragglere Who Had Ite
dulged ln Too Much Wine,
One of the few war subjects witice
has not been exaggerated is the really
amazing friendship whicle has sprung
up between the soldiers' of the allied
armies. If you consider that they
cannot understand a word of each
other's language, you might imagine
that real iutinmey were -no more than
a dream. Such is not the cese. Mr.
Athens and M. Piou.Plou Lave become
actual and real frieuds, and to see
them strolling along liberty hours.
arm in arm and talking volubly, is a
liberal education in .the possibilities
of human nature, writes 0. M. Hueffer.
One incident which the writer per-
sonally witnessed "somewhere near
the front," as the war correspondents
say, and which speaks volumes for the
friendship of the allied private sot'
diers must be prefaced by the state-
ment that some 40 per cent. of the
British troops at present at the front
are total abstainers. I happened to be
walking across the market place of the
little town with it Staff officer of the
British. Just in our way were, 1 sup-
pose, it couple of hundred French pri-
vates. • As we came up to them they
fell away before us in a manner alto.
gether incomprehensible, backing to.
ward the nearest wall, keeping their
faces always towards us, and saluting
continually with a surprising enthusi-
asm, asked the colonel what he sup.
posed it meant. He replied, with
raised eyebrows, that it was altogether
incomprehensible.
Three minutes later, having left the
colonel at the door of his headquart-
ers, I discovered the key, of the nlYs-
tery. Three British stragglers, who
had lost their battalions and were look-
ing for them had wandered into the
town. They had Genie far, and on tb.e
way the peasantry, who by this time
positively adore "les Anglishes," had
offered them the wine whiCh was red.
Their French comrades, recognizing
their condition, had Rocked together to
protect them from any possible punish-
acrass the Atlantic'once a'year, but
the rest of the time he lives ottietly
`at'llonae. He doesn't care for clubs

Coal may be high, lout after it is

Plea at the hands of the Britisla effle'
cers—whence the manoeuvring in the'
mariteepl ace.
The pains which those French sol-
diers took subsequently to iusure the,
safety of thele charges was a lesson,
in humanity. - After long consultatioa
they decided that the village church'
was the best place of sanctuary; east'
accordiagly they led them there, pro.
cured /arge trusses of straw, and left
them to sleep off their "fatigue,” as
one of the Frenchmen put It, Two of
the culprits proved perfectly amenahlei
and went quietly to sleep. The third,
of more heroic mold, no sooner foiled;
himself abandoned, than he arose'
swiftly to his feet, left the church, and;
wandered again through the market.;
place, hinting by signe to the passers..
by that he was still athirst.
His watchful French protectors rose
to the occasion, led him again to the.
sanctuary, and again put him to bed.;
Two minutes later he was out again,
recommencing his tour of the market.,
place. I do Pot think I am exaggerat;
Ing if I say that this performance was
gone through ten times, with unvary-
ing patience on the part of the French-
men, before the infantryman -errant
was at last perinitted to go to sleep.
Even theu guardian angels in red
breeches waited outside another quar-
ter of an hour to make sure that he
should not change his mind.
The writer could instance a hundred
cases within bis own personal 'knew -
ledge where the instincts of our com-
mon humanity have triumphed over
the red bestiality of war, from an ea-
tual set-to at fisticuffs between a Ba.
variiin and one of the West Surreys in
the space between the trenches, with
both armies as enthusiastic spectators,
to a. case of which I was told by an,
eye -witness, when an Englishman andi
a German both sacrificed their lives,
unavailingly, as it proved, to save that
of a French peasant boy who had
somehow wandered into the very mid-
dle of the flght.
