Profitable Investment.
Sir Richard Cartwright told the
publia of England three years ago of
the immense increase m the aggregate
debt of Canada, and. the Liberal con-
vention of last year adopted a resolution
expressiag altumatt the Jame increase
of our debt. As the public is well
aware, the increase of the debt during
Mclaisezie's tenure of office, amounted
to $8„000,00O per annum, whereas we
bave only added $8,000,000 altogether
during the past five years. The Ottawa
citizen remarks that it will be seen
theretore, that care has beea taken not
unduly to increase our liability in that
direction under Conservative adminis-
tration.
But there is another point of view
from which the subject may be con-
sidered. We paid for interest on the
debt last year the sum of $9,806,000.
Now the question is do we derive that
much beuefit from the expenditure in-
curred? This queation can be easily
aeswered, Alinoet all our outlay was
fdr -the development of the means of
transporting commodities. In other
words we built railways and canals
'with the borrowed. money. Before
Confederation we spent 02,900,000 in
this vray. Since Confederation we have
spent $156,000,000.
These two sums make up •$208,900,-
000 being a preponderating share of
the full amount
Let us assume that our indebtedness
has been ineurred for the co
erf railways and canals
case at
t1011
ow does the
. stands this way that we
aye reduced the coat of transportation
to such an extent that we save to the
people of Canada $45,000,000 every
year in this item alone. Bad the rates
applicable to passengers in 1887 been
maintained in 1893 the railway :receipts
would have been $17,109,000 more than
they were. Had the rates applicable to
tollreights in 186'7 been maintained in
1893 the railway receipts from that
source would have been. $38,065,000
more than they actually were.
We haye placed upon the people in
the form of our public debt a,burden of
$9.806,000 per annum, but we have
eaved for theni $45,174,700. While
extravagance is to be avoided and
economy is the best policy for nations
as for individuals, it is egain from the
above figures that the Government
would have been justified in creating a
liability twice as great as that which
actually exists and still the country
would hare been the geiner by an.
inimense amount.

the other day that he is going to

No fault can be found with the -prom-

nave lleen Killed by the Tree.
Sr. 'Incomas, Jan. a -The adjourned
hearing of the Middlemereh murde:: ease
reamed yesterday. The hearing promises
to be a lengthy one, as the crown has
about sixty witnesses and the defence
• about twenty five. • Night sessions are to
be held hereafter. John Stubbs, Edwin
Pearce, Richard.' Sanders, Edwin War-
dell, Robert Stepheus and Henry House
• gave evidence yesterday. All of them
agreed that the deceased could could not
have been killed by the falling tree. Two
of them identified the axe fouud in the
Woods as being the property of prisoner
John Hendershott.
S. TROMAS, Ont., Jan. 5. -The pre-
liminary bearing of the Hendersbott mur-
der case commenced here in the city hall
before Police Magistrate White and Jus-
tices of the Peace, Frank Hunt, Daniel
Turner and Dugald Ferguson. The crowd
was so great that the magistrates could
not secure order end the hall was cleared.
The afternoon was taken up with the
evidence of two daughters of prisoner
Hendershott. The younger daughter tes-
tified at the inquest that she retired very
early on the niglit before the tragedy, but
she said that she was in this city that
xiiglat and that her father, Welter and the
deceased carne to the city in the morning
azd that her father drore on to Sparta
and Welter and W. Hendershott returned
home about noon. She and Welter came
to the city about six o'clock in the even
ing and met her father here and drove
home. Trial adjourned until to -day.
ST. Tstaus, Ont., Jan. 7. -Three wit
messes were examined at the investigation
into the Middlemarch murder on Satur-
day. Charles Welter, cousin of the younger
prisoner and brother-in-law to prisoner,
Sohn Hendershott, was on the stand for
four hours. His memory has not improv-
ed since the inquest and nearly every
answer was prefesed by "I don't reme
ber," or a.A.s near as I can reme " er."
The only new matter elicitbrrn him
was that he had seen a iPich out from
the fallen tree at Jona Yiendershott's on
one enaavitaWheatieoked like a bundle of
This branch had. been cut in two
and witness placed tlae pieces for safe
keeping in a room in John Heudershott's.
He afterwards informed his solicitor, Mr.
McDonald, of the find. What had become
of the chips, or where they were now he
could not say.
At the conclusion Mr. McDonald said
that his most important witness, Mrs.
Peter Srauck, a cousin of one prisoner and
sister-in-law to the other, who is said
to have seen the two menia the woods
when the tree fell, had been spirited away.
He asked that it the Crown officers had
her in sale keeping they would undertake
to produce her as a witness and he would
he content.
County Crown Attorney Donahue and
Detective Murray warmly repudiated Mr.
McDonald's insinuation and promised to
do all they could to find the lady and have
her give evidence.

tion day. The investigation will again be

DaXvILLE, Que., Jan. 8. -Fire broke out
yesterday in St. Augustine Episcopal
church. On arrival of the Ere brigade:

possible to save the church, and the bri-
gade turned their attention to saving the

PITTSBURG, Jan. 8. --The Allegheny and
Monogahela rivers are rising rapidly. The
indications are that much damage to pro-
perty will be occasioned by the high water
and heavy loss. Both rivers are full of
huge cakes of ice and running like tor-
rents. A. great quantity af wreckage is
noticed among the ice, indicating destruc-
tion of fences and small buildings. On

Heaanix, N. S., Jan. e. -All bornage
tbat earth can bestow has been veld to the
mortal remains of tainatites late Premier,
and the body was yesterday committed to
its tomb. Serviees at St. Mary's Cathedral
were the most solemnly impressive ever
seen or heard in Canada,andwere a fitting
terraination of obsequies held in Great
Britain under the direction of Queen and
Imperial Government. The day was beau-
tifully fine, and from every early hour the
principal thoroughfares of the city were
thronged with people struggling to gain
points of vautag,e along the route and if
possible to obtain a view of the precis -
skin,
The remains were removed from the
Legisletive Council Chenther at 0 o'clock
and. taken in a covered 00;ft-sleigh to
St. Mary's Cathedral, where it was met by
Bev. Dr. Murphy ana Father Aforiarity in
cotto and cope. Rev. Draatturpay read the
pave, Venite Sanctus Deus, and superin-
tended the placing a the casket on the
catafalque, which is placed just at the foot
of the grawl ,altar of the cathedral. The
death watch from. 6.30 40 10.05 was kept by
the priests of St. Mary's.
The requiem Ines and frineral service
in St. Mary's dinixch was conducted with
all the pomp and splendour of the Roreart
Catholic Climate Bishop Caliteron, Of
.Antigonisb, was tbe celebrant, and Arch-
bishop O'Brien, of Halifax, the preacher.
They were assisted by a staff of deacons
and sub -deacons. At ten o'clock his Graec
Archbishop O'Brien entered 'with.- his
ministers and toOk his eeat on the ehrone
on. the gospea.liAaeor, the altar. Bishop
Cameron with his attendants sat on the
sldstOol near the epistle side of the altar• .
Archbishop O'Brien preached an im-
pressive sermon from the text " Having
then conversed with you from my mouth
until this day, 'behold, here I am. Speak
of me before the Lord and before His
anointed, whether I have taken any man's
ox or ass, if Ihave wronged any man, if I
have oppressed any man, if I havetaken a
bribe at any rnants hand, and I will de-
spise it this day, and will restore it to you,
and they said: Thon he not wronged us
nor oppressed us, nor taken aught at any
=tem.'s hand."
At the conclusion of the service the
cofiln was borne to the funetal car, stand-
ing at the main cathedral entrance, on
Spring Garden road. It was decidedly
striliing in appearance. The dark drapery
hanging about the sides almost concealed
the wheels of the ear. Thick tassels
dangled at the corners and the rich drapery
was caught up with silver ease. In the
entre of the car was the bier, on -which
the coffin rested, and over all at a height
of eight feet was rtlarge canopy, supported
on columns of black and silver, and sur-
mounted with pluxnes and crown. The
funeral cortege then proceeded to Holy
Cross cemetery where the interment took
place,

A St. John N. B., Lady
• Who was Nearing
the Grave.
She declares that
Paine's Celery Com-
pound Saved
Her,
The case of Mrs NV illiam Irvine, of St.
John, N. B. was a sad one, and caused her
fauiily atal friends great anxiety for a
• time. Overwork, wetching, loss of sleep
and intense wont' from kidney trouble
made life almost unbearable. Effort -after
effort with medicines and doctor's pre-
ecriptions proved futile. The grave and
its terrore were becoming more realistic,
and deth's hand seemed to be firmly fas-
tened on the victim of disease.
There flashed a bright inspiration,-
Paine's Celery Compound I. --a thought of
a medicine that had wrought wonders for
others. • The marvelous life-giving medi-
• cine wale used, and the results are briefly
set forth in Mrs, Irvine's letter as •fol.
.
"I think it a great pleasure as well as a
duty to put on reeord what Paine's Celery
• Compound he done for me. I have been
troubled for the past ton years with kid -
uey complaint, and have tried a 'great
many preparations and dootor's prescrip-
tions, but with little or no benefit.
• For the last six months I have had a
great strain upon my system from night -
watching and overwork. I was breaking
down; my friends said, "I was going fast
to death. I reaolyed to try your Paine's
Celery CoMpound, and used foul! bottles.
My kidney trouble disappeared; nervous..
nese and sleeplessness are troubles of the
past and my general health la greatly impro-
ved. In a word, I am cured; and I wish tO
publish it BO that the world can read it.
A wonderful new combination is RI
