THE CUSTOMS REVENUE.
March Increase Nearly Four Hun-
dred Thousand Dollars.
A despatch from Ottawa says:
Customs receipts of the Dominion
for the month of March, the last
month of the liseal year, show
that the turn of the tido, which
set in with the beginning of the
year in respect to customs revenue,
is now increasingly apparent. For
the month the total customs re-
ceipts have been $4,747,291, an in-
crease of $391,189 as compared
with March of last year. This is
the first big increase in about a
year and a half. For the twelve
months of the fiscal year the cus-
toms revenue has totalled $47,378,-
000, a decrease of $10,489,632, as
compared with 1907-08.
['RGF'ITS OF TU EMINT.
Silver and Copper Coinage Yield
Large Returns.
A despatch from Ottawa says:
A return showing the financial re-
sult of the operations of the Royal
Mint last year indicates that it is
a most profitable investment for
the country. Although, owing to
the financial depression, the
amount of new coinage required
was not up to the normal of recent
years, and the output of the new
]Mint was consequently restricted,
thus decreasing the profits, there
was a gross profit in the silver and
copper coin minted during 1908
amounting to $191,431. The expen-
ses of maintenance and salaries
totalled $71,939, leaving a net pro-
fit, exclusive of interest on capital
investment, of 882,492. The amount
of silver coined was $313,338, the
profit being $175,709. The value of
the copper coinage was $23,290, the
g►rufit being $18,709.

MARINE BBOY EXPLODES
One Man Killed and One Hurt on the
King's Wharf at Quebec.
A despatch from Quebec says:
For want of expert direction on
Friday forenoon a fatal explosion
occurred on the King's Wharf in
connection with the Quebec agency
of the Marine and Fisheries De-
partment, which resulted in the
death of one man named Ludger
Germaine and serious injury to
another employee named Huppe.
The agency is now busy getting
ready the buoys to be laid in the
St. Lawrence at the opening of
navigation, and several workmen
were charging ono of the largo
buoys with calcium of carbonite,
which did not seem to fit. Ons
of the workmien, presumably Ger-
maine, lifted a piece of batten from
the ground and commenced to
strike the carbon, when the ex-
plosion took place. It was acceler-
ated
cler-
c
ated by the damp snow that cov-
ered the ground on which the large
gas buoy stood. It is very evident
that, the workmen were ignorant
of the danger in handling the cal-
cium of carbonite, and there was
no expert to direct them.

THE HUGE INVADING
FAMILY ASPHYXIATED.
Family of Mr. James McLean,
London, Found Unconscious.
A despatch from London, Ont.,
says: At 6 o'clock on Friday even-
ing, when neighbors broke into the
house of James McLean, on Cites -
ley avenue, it was to find McLean,
his wife and three children in an
unconscious condition from gas as-
phyxiation. For eighteen hours
they had been that way. All will
probably recover except a ten-
year -old girl, who is in a serious
condition. The family retired
about midnight on Thursday night.
An hour later the mother was
awakened by the moaning of a
child. She staggered into the next
room, to find the child vomiting,
and then herself fell in a semi-
conscious condition. The woman
says that she never completely lost
consciousness, but was physically
unable to arise or even snake a
sound. When neighbore finally
awoke her she thought it was but
morning. Her husband, when
aroused, murmured that he had
overslept.

had to be killed. That the ani-
mals had been poisoned was ex-

in a corner of the barn. Mr. Mc -

"1t is a common cause of com-

they cannot let themselves go, or
in other words that they cannot

spirits and the nation's gayety as
to be childish vn occasion and fool-

"Orr the Continent they consider
the best means to this end is to don
dominoes and false noses and blow
penny trumpets, dance in the open
air, and so on. In England wo
do none of these things and so we
are told, more's the pity.
"Desperate efforts are now being
made to correct this mistake on
our part. London is now a gay
city ; we are making the most of
our restaurants, the cafe is creep-

so chary about decorating our
houses and making a brave show
