of the great naval pageant. - When the
Dolphin reached the end of the line in the
neighborhood of Ninety-fifth street she
dropped anchor and made preparations to
receive the commanding officers of the
foreign squadrons, who were preeeeted to
the Preradent, by their reepeotive ministers,.
Duly attired in. full ceremonial uniformewith
• cookecl hate and Bwovis, the dietinguished
officers entered their barges and pulled off
for the Presiaential yacht.
The roar of the Miantonomeh's 21 guns
was followed by a Wet° from the Brazilian
•,ehips Itepublican and Irredentes. The
Dolphin replied to the Brazilians, and a
cloud a snaoke rose over the lower end of
the line of warships. The Brazilians manned.
Wards just before firing, and the long lines of
blue Sachets stood, out spinet a white back-
ground of emoke. The Dolphin moved at a
elow and stately gait, and the salute of each
ship wet distinct and eharp. The Aquida-
Ian, flagship of the Brazilian fleet, finished
Writing at 1.40, and the Nueva Espana took
ita turn. The Dolphin was followed at a
distance of about 500 feet by the Blake, and
she in turn by the Afiantonomain
The bandeau the ships played the national
,nir, but it was only at intervals between the
roar a the guns that the musio could be
lewd.
It was just 2.12 when England's crack
oraisee, the Blake, fired her first gun. There
was a big puff of smoke and a deep boom
entirely different from the sharp sounds of
the gems of the smaller vessels.
The Philadelphia Baluted as the Dolphin
reached the head of the line and came to a
stop just in rear of the caravels. At the
same time all the eteamboats, tugs and
pleasure crafts blew their whistles andmade
a din almost as deafening as the saluting.
There was cheering and waving of hate,
handkerchiefs and umbrellas, and the tri-
umphal proceseion of the Presidential party
was ended.
Fifteen minutes before the reception
ended, and when the President was prepar-
ing to land, an admonitory signal was geren

and entered his barge at the foot of 96th

manned yards and rails and once more fired
Aar/elite of twenty-one guns, following the
Dolphin's lead. Then the President's flag
;was lowered from the Dolphin and the
public ceremonies of the day were COW.
Didered over.
AB soon as the Dolphin passed out from
between the anchored fleet the cordon was
'broken and private stearaers and yachts:
trashed In. When the stnoke had partially
cleared they obtained a magnificent view of
the combined naval forces at close range.
The flagships of the squadrons courteously
returned the innumerable salutes tendered
them by the private steamere, and their
officers seemed to heartily appreoiate the
interest their appearance created. Nor
;was the spectacle one which they them -
eaves would be likely to forget.
Inky darkness veiled the Columbian fieet
at 8 o'clock to -night, and not a sound was
heard by landsmen from the anchored battle
abips. Suddenly a ray of light shot upward
from the Philadelphia. It was long and
dazzling, and seemed to pierce the sky. For
a moment lb remained stationary and then
dinappeared. This was the signal for the
•aciru.deled display of electrical search lights
with which the war veasels are provided,
some of them having 2,000 French lenses.
Quickly following the Philadelphia's lead
the American ships showed the many ways
in which the lights are used in
active warfare to protect them-
eelves from the attacks of those
marine terrors, the torpedo boats. At once
the projected rays were concentrated at
oertain spots on shore, then turned far up
the Hudson, =king objects plainly visible
at a distance of five miles. Following came
another a gna , 11316 simultaneously every
light in the deet was turned towards the
zenith. Slowly the rays converged, until
they formed the apex of a brilliant silvery
emerald of incalculable height. Experts
isay it could have been seen 75 miles away in
any direction. It was a sight never before
seen, and never to be forgotten by the land-
lubbers. In conclusion the operator' gave
some examples of high arb ira ray -projecting.

Qarener, It wee begun by Mrs. (Dr.) VV. Y.
Meteelf, who mks for the roam mentioned
from Mrs, Belle M. Tiffany, a well-to-do
widow who lives on Fort etreee west. Mrs.
'Metcalf teetified that elie and the doctor
wore married in Sidney, OM., in September,
1888, Shortly after the couple came to
Detroit, and tooh up their residence with
Mrs. Tiffany. After coming here Mrs. Met-
calf notieed her hueband gradually growing
cold towards) her. At the same time he
seemed to be warmiug towards the widow.
The dootor and Mre. Tiffany frequently
went driving together, leaving the bride at
horao ; and Mrs. Tiffany presented the
young man with several articles as tokens
of her OStaelll. Mrs. Metcalf alleges
all therm delicate attentions paid
her husband by Mrs. Tiffany were
for the purpose of winning him away
from his wife, Isndmeny unpleasant disputer,
took place between the two. Finally in
September, 1891, the doctor prevailed on
hiss wife to sign a deed of separation m con-
sideration, of the sum of $F4000 and certain
household goods, she releasing him from
obligations to support her thereafter. Mrs.
Metcalf said when this proposition was made
to her he hesitated, but, having no friends
to advise her, finally consented. After she
signed the agreement of separation she re-
turned to Canada, while the doctor Mill
retained his office and residence in Mrs.
Tiffany's residence. Mrs. Tiffany gave her
evidence to -day, and among other things
said Mrs. Metcalf had grown jealous:
of her the time they had boarded
together Bin months, and had been
watching through registers and other '
peepholes for evidence that would confirm
her suspicions. One night the doctor and
the two women had been sitting in the
parlor, when Mre. Metcalf excused herself
on the plea of a headache and went into her
room. Shortly afterwards Mrs. Tiffany also
arose and started for her room, when the
doctor jumped up, and throwing his arm
around her neck kissed her. • At the same
moment the bedroom door opened, and Mrs.
Metcalf jumped bate the room. Mrs.
Tiffany passed on upstairs to her own room.
Ten minutes later the dootor went to the Refuge in every county. The Governments
policy had been to encourage this. A
sum Was set apart for thus purpose yearly,
and more of thoae refuges were being built
every year. These Houses of Refuge pro;
Tided an asylum for theme bordering between
being subjects for the asylums and those fit
aulojects for Industrial Horace. Albhough
the bill dealt entirely with children it must
not be supposed there was a scarcity of bills
respecting children on the statute book.
He cited the different Acts dealing with the
protection of children. The laws on the
•statute books were excellent, but laoked
enforcement. The Industrial Schools Act,
and especially the tramway clauses, were
good, and had accomplished much. The
nili introduced by the Attorney -General in
1888 for the better protection of children
was a half -way measure towards his own
bill. The encouragement given to children's

Mr. Gibson, in moving the second reading
of his Bill for the prevention of cruelty to
and the better proteotion of children, epoke
at Borne length. •No person, he mid, who
gave a calm perusal to the reports of bee
Prison Commissioners but must arrive at
the conclusion that some measure was
• necessary for the better protection of
children. The clauses of the present Bill
might be characterized as largely revolu-
tionary. The matter was considered last
session, but it was thought neceseary to
give it further consideration. The result
of the delay is that a Bilis DOW before the
Rouse which involves a new departure;
a Bill which proposes to be of a preventive
nature ; a Bill which in the future he was
satisfied would have far-reaching conse-
quences. Some of the recommendations of
the Priesan Commissioners were of such a
nature that it was necessary to give them
much consideration. One suggestion of the
Commissioners was that there should be an
Industrial school in every county. The
Government did not feel inclined to follow
out this recommendation. They also recom-
mended that there should be a House of

• Who wars the modest husband who begged
Ids wife to tell him 11 hie besetting sin?"
The story is referred to by John Oliver
Hobbes in the preface to the second edition
of his "Study Temptations," just published
In Mr. Fisher Urasina "Pseudonym
Library." The request was made, he added,
"in order that I may conquer it and so
• please you in all respects." With mule
reluctance, and only after many exhorta-
tions to be frank and outspoken, the lady
xeplied that the feared he was—just a trifle,
•only the merest triflo, selfish. I am not
perfect, I admit" said her husband, "and
perhaps I em a sinful creature, but it there
is one faulb which I thank God I do not
.poseese, it ie selfishness. Anything but
that," And as he spoke he paroled her the
aim:era—they were at lunch—and set himself
to weele on the only pesch.--fmndon Daily

of the House greeted the closing remarks).
Orem excess,
Mr. Meredith, in reply to the hon. gentle-
man who had juet smoke* in behalf of his
bill, said the OePosition aide of the House
could be depended upon to support euch
clenees of the bill as were commendable,
but he desired to my that the hon. gentle-
man was wrong in saying that a man might
ill-treat his child at hie home and not be
amenable to the law. He should be sorry
to have it go abroed that in this land the
rarent had no rights with his ohild. If a
parent ill-used hie authority, then it was
not only the right but the duty of the State
to interfere. It was necessary in this young
country to guerd as far as possible from
crime. For this, purpose the youth of the
country should be trained as mule as pos-
sible to make good °MMUS. Immenee good
had been done by charitably disposed per-
sons to reclaim the deetibute children of
this country. Foster home would not
accomplish the great good that his
hon. friend seemed to think. He
ventured to • say that the remits

Use the hon. gentleman would make of the
orphan asylums and other such institutions
if his bill passed, as he presumed it would.
He did not know what the hon, geutleinan
had against) those institutions.
Mr. Gibson (Hamilton)—Ib does not inter-
fere with them.
Mr. Meredith was glad to hear that, as
the only institution he had heard mentioned
in the bill were ohildren's aid societies. Was
it nob the case that aid was invariably
drawn by the public from State -aided insti-
tutions Take the University of Toronto
and compare it with other universitiee that
were not State -aided. And in order to
carry.out this work it was necessary to ap-
point an extra official to promulgate the
system. The hon. gentleman had referred
to some of the suggestions of the Prison
Commissioners, but many of these sugges-
tions were ignored. One of the suggestions
is that Industrial schools should be estab-
lished in each county. One of these
schoola has been started in Toronto,
and it has proved a great success.
The experiment should be extended to the
larger cities. • With regard to the Re-
formatory the commissioners advise that the
merit system be adopted, in place of the
penal term. The suggestion also of the
commissioners with respect to the estab-
lishment of a Board similar to that of the
State of Massachusetts has been ignored.
The hon. gentleman would have the cordial
support of the gentlemen on this side of
the House in the framing of the measure and
the perfecting of it as far as possible, and
the Opposition was prepared to assume a
certain amount of the responsibility. The
hon. gentleman anticipated some difficulty
with respect so the financial clauses of the
Bill. The beat features of it are those that
place a certain amount of the burden of
taking care of the child upon the munici-
pality from which the child comes. The
Opposition would render a cordial support
to the Bill, and help as far as possible to
make it a measure that would be of benefit
to the community at large.
The bill paned its second reading with-
out further debate.
Mr. Balfour took the chair in Committee
of Supply.
Mr. Clancy, under the heading of "Agri-.'
culture " said that there was a rumor that
some ofthe clerks in the Agricultural De-
partment spent a good deal of their time in
looking after the voters' lists and. the ad-
dressing of campaign literature.
Mr. Meredith. pointed out that the salary
paid to local masters was much in excess of
the fees collected.
Sir Oliver Mowat attributed this to a de-
crease in litigation.
• Mr. Meredith questioned the item of
$1,500 under the heading of public build-
ings, to be appropriated for the decoration
of the grounds surrounding the Parliament
buildings. He mge,ested that the late
George Brown's monument should be moved
to a more prominent place in the park.
Mr. Fraser defended the item, and said
that the appropriation for the buildings,
whilst it might cover the buildings and
equipment, certainly did not cover the
grounds. The buildings would compare
for cheapnees and utility with any in the
world. :
Mr. Gibsone'referring to the vote on the
Central Prison buildings, spoke of the
machinery necessary in the binder twine
works. He also referred to the fire last
month.
Mr. Meredith wanted to know what the
output was, and whether the Government
intended to insure it.
Mr. Gibson said the output Was about
two tons daily. The output would depend
largely on the increase in machinery.
Whilst it might be adviseble in future for
the Government to insure its buildings sub-
ject to hazardous risk, the past policy had
been to carry its own insurance.
Mr. Meredith wanted to know if the
machinery for making twine had been ad-
mitted duty free.
• Mr. Gibson mid no; the Ontario Govern-
ment had to pay $6,000 duty on the binder
twine machinery.
• A number of petitions were presented.
Bills were introduced to incorporate the
village of Hamilton Beach.

Not long ago a repimentative ot this
Journal while in eoevereetion with Mr. N.
Empey, druggist, drifted upon a topic) which
appears to be of general interest, • not only
to this locality, bub throuehout the couns
try, we refer to the wonderfail cures througla
the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pith, for Pale
People. Newepaper men ere not possessed
of more curiosity than other people, but,
they have a feeling that inetinotively
leads them to investigation, and in the
COUrfle of our conversetioe we asked Mr..
Ernpey whether he thought the sales of
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are really as large
ara claimed for tlieut. The :mower was that,
judging from his OWil Pali, he was well
assured that Pink Pile are the moat value
able, the most reliable and the most SUC•
cessful proprietary medicine extent. In
answer to the query as eo whether there
were erzy noteworthy mime in his vicinity,
Mr. Empey promptly responded
many people have been greatly benefited by
the use of Pink Pale, and 1 know of one
case in particular worthy of being re-
corded. The loam to which I refers"
continued Mr. lempey, " is that of Mr.
Crouter, brother of Rev. Deride
()router, who some years ago represented
East Northumberland in the Home of Com.
mons. Mr. Crouter was :suffering from
nervous affeotion and the afterseffecte of la
grippe. He had not been Able to do any-
thing for two yeare, was linable to eat, as
he could not hold a knife or fork in his half -
paralyzed hands. He suffered greatly from
cramps in his arms and legs, and had a con-
tinual feeling of coldness. • One day Mr.
Crouter made hiquiry concerning Dr. Wil-
liam's Pink Pills, and I advisted him to try
them, and the result is that he has entirely
recovered has health."
Having heard this much the Journal de-
• termined to interview Mr. Crouter, and get
from his own lips the full particulars of his
illness and remarkable recovery. We found
Mr. Crouter at his home in the best of
health, and enjoying an evening smoke after
a day's toil in the woods:. When informed
of the object of our via, Mr. Crouter said
he was glad to bear testimony to the won-
derful value of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills as
a remedial agency. "The original cause of
my trouble," said v1 r. Grouter, "1 date
back good many years. When I was 19.
years old T drank a glass of cold water when
overheated, which proved a most injudici-
ous act on my parte I was sick for
thirteen months and unable to work,
and since that time until recently,
I have never had what you could
call a well day.. Two years ago I had
an attaok of la grippe which nearly cost ma
my life. My legs and feet were continually
cold and cramped, and could get little or no
sleep at night. It was impossible for me to
eat: with a knife or fork and I was forced to
.eat with a spoon, and you can underatand
what a burden life was to One day. 1
read in the Jourrnal of a remarkable ours by
the rse of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and I
made up my mind to give them a trial.
I sent to Mr. Empey's for a supply and be-
fore the first box was entirely gone I could
notice that they were helping me so you
may be sure I continued their use. 'When I
began ueing the Pink Pills there was suoh a
numbness m my fact that I oould not
feel the floor when I stepped on it. As I
continued the use of the pills this disap-
peared ; the feeling returned to my lirabs,
the cramps left me, I felt as though new
blood were coursing through ray veins, and
I can now go to bed end sleep soundly all
night. I have taken just twelve boxes of
Pink Pills and I consider them the cheapest
doctor's bill ever paid. When I get np
in the morning betted of feeling tired
and depressed, I feel thoroughly re-
fres'ned, and all this wonderful change
is due to Dr. Williams' Pink Pine.
Athough I am 71 years old I can go into
the woods and do a hard day's clumping
without feeling the least bad effects. I
have now so much confidence in Dr. Wil-
liam's Pink Pills, that I intend shortly be-
ginning their use again, this time as a spring
medicine, for I believe they have no equal
for building up the blood and I strongly
recommend them to all sufferers or to any
who wish to forret, the System against
disease.

forty-five years, and is well-known as an
upright, honorable gentleman, whose state-
ments can be fully depended on in every

• l'unctualityee on the Part of the
Secretary of State.
The Duke of Wellington never met Lord
Nelson but once, says the " °raker Diary,"
and thie was ahortly after the return of the
Duke, then Sir Arthur Wellesley, from
India, in the ante -room of the Secretary of
State. The Duke mid : "1 went to the
Colonial office in Downing streeb and there
I was shown into the little waiting room on
the righthiend eide, • where I found, also
waitiog to me the Secretary of State, a
gentleman, whom, from his likeness to his
pieturee and the lose Of an arm, I itnmedi-
ably recognized as Lord Nelson. He talked
of the state of the country and the prob-
abilities of affairs on the continent with a
good ilertse and a. knowledge of subjects
both at home and abroad thab surprised
me. In fact, he talked like au officer and a
statesman, The Secretary of State kept us
long waiting, and certainly for three-quar-
tem of rase hour, I don't know that I ever
had a conversation which interested me
more." The two men, both eminent in teeir
respective ways, never met again, and the
Duke's kieowkdge and appreciation of Lord
Nelson's character was due to a wanb of
punctuality on the part of a. Secretary of
State—in fact, the result of accident, which
plays so great a part ill human affairs.
