Clifford Sifton, who recently sesigned the portfolio of Minister of She Interior because he disagreed with the provisions of the educational clause of the Antonomy bill, has now decided to vote for the separate school clauses as amended. In what is con- sidered his greatest speech delivered on Friday he declared his intention of yoting for the bill as amended. al- though he made a sweeping condemna- tion of the original clauses and felt very reluctant in accepting the amend- ed clauses. "There is a certain distance," he said "'that 1 ant prepared to go in the way of compromise. 1 have so expressed myself to the prince minister, rind to the extent which is embodied in the proposition before the house I ant wil- ling to go. I have had to decide to what extent and how far I should he prepared to compromise opinions which I have publicly expressed, and opinions which I still hold, in order nottodestroy the government of which I have been a member." He had only two excuses for agree- ing to a compromise to which he had conscientious objections and these bluntly put, are: (1)—Because the Separate Schools guaranteed by the bill are undenomin- ational schools and under public con- trol in every respect. (2)—Because he did not want to de- feat the government on the question. As a result of Mr. Sifton's decision to support the bill many of the other western Liberals, who hesitated as long as he objected, have now fallen into line and will likewise vote with the government. The ex -minister is cot the only man who has sacrificed openly -pronounced convictions to his party, and, no doubt, unless he can sake his position good, he like many another will have a difficulty to ex. plain when he goes to the people for se -election. INTERESTING DOINGS. Much more than the ordiniiry amount of interesth.isheen taken in the sessions of the Dominion and Ontario Parliaments at Ottawa and Toronto, during the past week. ' In the House of Commons the Au- tonomy Rill)tas been the point around which the interest has been concen- trated. the bill with its amended edu- cational clause having been up forsec- end reading. Several strong speeches have been delivered for and against the bill. Both parties agree that the Territories should be granted autono- my but disagree regarding the educa- tional clauses. Mr. Borden, leader of the Opposition, in a strong able speech on Thursday, came out flat-footed in favor of Provincial Rights and against the Dominion Government dictating to the people of the west, regarding education, which "should be left abso- lutely to the control of the Provinces to be created." ile declared that the 'Provinces should be given full autono- my. Mr. Milton criticised the bill but said he would support it. Mr. Fielding made a good speech but abandoned the cotlstitutional argument which Sir Wilfred Laurier had used, and Mr. Borden had endeavored to prove er• :-oneous. Mr. Borden moved an amend- ment calling for the striking out of the aducatioual clauses, and the insertion of a clause giving the new Provinces full control of the educational system. *1'b° debate continued this week. The Ontario Parliament vas opened ,an Wednesday afternoon of last week, when Mr. J. W. St. John wan elected Speaker of the first straight Conserva- tive Government Ontario has seen. This fact added interest to the open- ing, and the attendance was mnpreced- ,ntly large, every available foot in the chamber being occupied. The cere- mony did not commence until 3 o'clock but many anxious ones arrived as ear- ly as 12 o'clock to secure seats in the galleries. The announcement that the Provincial and DominionOovernments were in communication regarding the extending of Ontario boundaries ay..s the principal feature of the speech from the throne. Other things to be considered in the session, were the re- port of the Railway Commission, the husbanding of the Niagara Power,and the amendments to the Educational Act. The following day the ,address in reply to the speech from the throne was moved by Mr. Moyle and second - d try Mt•. Downey. it is expected that the session will he short.

Crazed by religious fanaticism, Hobert Qiiick, of Caradoc township, near Strathroy, a kind father to his family of five motherless little ones and a loving son to a mother eighty years of age, slew his younger brother Alfred, on Saturday afternoon with his naked hands. For upwards of half an hour the two Then fought in a death grapple that began in the kitch- en and ended in the little parlor of the bleak farm house, the while the helpless children, the oldest not ten years of age, stood screaming with fright in the yard outside. Alfred Quick fought with the dcs- ptt•ation of despair, but he was a smaller pian in every way. and no match for the insane strength of his brother. At last he tripped, over a rocking chair, and in a moment the assailaunt was choking his life out on the floor. Robert Quick was 'within an hour arrested by Chief of Police Nilson, of Strathroy. With but one handcuff upon him, he fought the officials of the law so fiercely that it took three strong men to hold him down upon the bed while his hands were pinioned behind his back. Again atthe'Sttath- roy lock-up late at night he attacked the constables with desperate fury, but was again overpowered. ' He was brought to the county jail in London' in the early hmzrs of Sun- day morning, and is now incarcerated in. the cell next to that occtapied by the desnerado "Texas" at the time he effected his escape. There he will re- main to answer •to a charge of foul and brutal murder, or to he imprison- ed for life as a dangerous lunatic. Such, in brief, are the details of a tragedy that is among the saddest of that county. one that has many fea- tures of pathetic interest. that has robbed an aged woman of two stal- wart sons and left five little children worse than fatherless. The result of the inquest was that deceased came to his qeath by strang- ulation, due to throttling. Hobert Quick was pronounced insane,and will be removed to London Asylum. THE BAR. The Retreat Continues. The Japanese are again moving for- ward and the Russian rear guard has fallen back from its position about thirteen miles north of Sipinghai, 74 guiles north of the Pass. The Japanese army ne,u• Mukden is clearing the battlefield, sorting the enormous quantities of stores and ma- terials captured, and attending to the prisoners. Engineers are rapidly re- pairing the railroad bridge across the Ilun River, which was badly damaged by the Russians. Trains are now run- ning to the Hun River. They will reach Mukden in a few days. The weather is very war 01 and the ground is thawing rapidly, making the move- ment of guns and transport waggons difficult. Practically complete reports show that the Russian army sect iflced gen- eral commissariat stores to the amount of $1,250,000 and stores fur an array corps amounting to $500,000 held et Mukden, most of it being set on flee, the loots and uniforms nulong the stores of which the whole array was in need arriving from Europe four days before the Russian retirement from Mukden. The impression prevalent in somo military circles that the Japan- ese, having removed the possibility of the main army in Manchuria assuniing the initiative, will now turn their at- tention to the next objective of the war, Vladivostock, is strengthened by the Associated Press dispatch from Gnnshu Page, announcing the with- drawal of the Japanese from the int - mediate front of the Russian array for a distance of :t5 miles. While the voice of the Etopet or's advisers is for peace, if honorable terms are obtained, the (government, as is the pill of wisdom. is going for- ward with all provisions for the con• tinuance of the war. Preparations are reported to be snaking for the mobiliz- ation of five corps.

Every day from five to fifteen letters are received by The Ogilvie Flour Mills Co. from women living in the smaller towns throughout Canada, saying they have asked their grocer for Royal Household Flour but can't get it. One writes—"I told my grocer, I1r.----, that I would buy 'Royal Household' regularly if he would always keep it on hand, but lie said he wouldn't take on another brand of flour until he was obliged to." Another says—" My grocer is an 'old fogie' and never gets the newest or the best things until the year after." A third says—"We haven't an enterprising grocer in our town and are obliged to send to for `Royal Household' or take a poorer flour." Write direct to Ogilvie's. If you can't get " Royal Household" from your grocer, write to us direct—we will immediately give you the name • of the nearest grocer who keeps " Royal Household" and send you also the "Royal Household" recipes. There is no good reason why your grocer should compel you to use inferior $our—nofirst class grocer will hesitate to order "Royal Household" for you, and even the smallest dealer will get it if you insist upon it.
