LEAPING SEVASTO1'OI,. The correspondent of Tho London 'Finns at St. Petersburg cables: - Apart from a wild report of Rojes- tvensky's reaching Vladivnstock, the telegrams from Manchuria contain nothing important. Tito sensational • report that Russia has acquired tho navies of Chile and Argentina con- tinues to meet with an official denial, but from private sources I learn of several transports leaving Sevasto- pol for the same destination as tho mysterious vessels from Cronstadt. NUCLEUS FOIL NEW NAVY. There is an intimation from a dip- lomatic source that warships will be brought from the Baltic to servo as a nucleus for a new navy in case Rojestvensky's fleet comes to grief. It is more than doubtful if the Rus- sian Government would venture upon each a flagrant violation of neutral- itWr+s the purchase of South Amori- can arships unless on tho condition that delivery be delayed until tho conclusion of peace. In that case the purchase may be regarded as merely a precautionary measure to prevent the vessels from falling into the hands of the Japanese. _ UNl'AV(11tAlii.E TO STOESSEL.

IRAILWAY 1S BOOMING. MINK INSIDE A CODFISH. Only an Indian Could Have Made This Catch. A Vancouver, B.C., despatch anus: -A codfish with a medium -sired fe- male plink in its inside is the latest curious natural phenomenon. C. Eckman, who has just arrived hero from Valdez Island, says that whita ho was at Tomlinson's camp, popu- larly known on the island as "The nolo iu tho Wall," sumo Indians brought a quantity of freshly -caught cod. When the camp cook opened ono he found the fur -bearing animal. The condition of the mink was such as to denote that it had only done tint Jonah act very shortly before the codlish took the hook. TO CHECK SAN JOSE SCALE Government Conducts Extensive Spraying Operations. A 'Toronto despatch says: -An ex- tensive series of spraying experi- ments with power sprayers are being conductedin theNiagara N' n distr(c t 6 with a view of checking the San Jose scale on all fruit trees and the black rot. in grapes. Prof. Lochhged, of the Agricultural College, is in charge of this experiment. The report of the Inspection 'nado in the townships of the southern part of Kerj County shows the scale is very elkensive and is now over! a large area, south of Chatham to �ho )eke. The farmers of that sec-! Von are turning their attention from fruit to bean -growing, and COMIC- quontly are doing little or nothing to check the scale, whereas in the Niagara district the fruit -growers seem to have become thoroughly aroused to tho necessity of spraying, and are now working rigorously to save their orchards.

ONTARIO LEGISLATURE. WHAT OUR LEGISLATORS ARE DOING AT TORONTO. COLD STORAGE. The Minister of Agriculture secured a second 'reading for his bill to pro- vide for the incorporation of cold storage associations. The 'tonsure increased their usefulness. RTPING OUT OI' GRANTS. A lengthy discussion took place over tho wiping out of grunts to the Cat- tle Brooders' Association, Swine Breeders' Aix;ociation, Sheep Breed- ers' Association, and Poultry Associ- ation. Iron. Mr. Monteith and 1lon. Mr. Whitney contended that these moneys could be applied more ad- vantageously to agricultural inter- ests than by giving them to tho as- sociations in question. An appropri- ation of $3,500 for the Winter Pair at Guelph had been made instead. SPEE'1) OI' AUTO U iF.S L Mr. Sutherland moved the second reading of Itis bill to further amend the Act to regulate the speed and operation of motor vehicles on high- ways. This amendment provides that motor vehicles on countrg roads must slop 100 feet from any ap- proaching horse and wait. until sig- naled to proceed by the driver, and, if necessary, shall turn his nutter oft the road and assist the eb'iver to puss with his horse. 'the bill fur- ther provides that, notwithstanding compliance with the provisions of the Act. the operator of a inutor vehicle shall lei liable for (lanlaiges to horses or vehicle», uWPM. Nie can prove that the them were witted by negligence on the driver's part. Tho bill was referred to the Mu- nicipal Committee. STATIONARY ENGINEERS. Mr. Sinollie's bill to regulate sta- tionary engineers was, on motion of hr. Willoughby, referred to a special committee. TO EXEMPT WOODLANDS. There was an interceding discussion over 3tr. Downey's hill to provide for the exemption of "woodlands" from levet ion. "Woodlands," the bill defines as lands having not less than 400 trees to the acre of all sizes of ono or novo of the follow- ing kinds: -White or Norway pine, white or Norway epriirc, hemlock, tamaroc, oak, ash, elm, hickory, iasswe.od, tulip (whitewood), black cherry, black walnut, butternut, chestnut, hard 'maple, black locust, or retell -a. and which has been set apart by tho owner for the sole pur- pose of fostering the growth of the trees, and which Is not used for grazing live rrloek, or for nny other purpose which would interfere eitlf the enteral growth of the trees. The Council of any township may under the hill grant the exetnptiou by a two -thiels vote, but the by- law thus reseed eaten not exempt more than one acre in ten and not exceeding 25 acres in the whole of the lands held under tringle owner- ship. Mr. Downey, in moving rho terrine' rending of his bill, referred to the suicide' policy followed by the fann- ers of older Ontario in cutting off 1inther, tlierhy drying up et rennet and dccrensing the rainfall. !lie bill was meant to encourage the fnrgrrs in rreser%ing anti d'tcloleir•g their wooden lanrls. Mr. 1farcourt expressed hit entire incurrence with the provisioes rind ims of the hill, but (carol that Townehip ('o:tneils would be slow to take advent age of th'e Act.

The earnings for April euro $12,833.78. F'or tho balnnco of this Fear assur- plus of $3,000 a month might bo ex- pected front the road. Tho commissioners, said Mr. Math- eson, would require 89,000,000 be- fore the road was completed, but it was hoped to secure some of this money from the Dominion Govern- ment in the forth of a subsidy. 11)0 bills received their second read- ing. HALIFAX GARRISON. Imperial Troops May Remain for Two Years. A Halifax despatch says: Contrary to the Ottawa announcements, the Imperial forces are not likely to leave Ilalifax on July 1, and indeed they may remain hero two years s longer. 'flee 5th Royal Garrison Regime or Infantry will be retain- ed hero owiug to the inability of the 1 Dominion Government to recruit suf- 1 licient Wren to take their place. The 150 omen coming to 'Addax from Fredericton will be stationed at Clads Barracks, and will practically torn the nucleus of n military seheo:. Imperial troops will not all Leave lInlifax at the ennui time, but as the time of the anon expires Canadi- an dctathtnents will tako their plac- es until the whole garrison is made up of Cnrr.telians; thus tho change win be made gradually. An Imperial army officer practical- ly corroborated the ahovo facts. The rcortth that. ` n the h ,t1 1 (. t t. R. was to he replaced by a line regiment is al- so incorrect. The strength of the fart i=m) at Halifax will be kept at 1,See of all ranks. Canada will contribute about. $8.10,000.
