eration."

intention of the Governraent to intro-
duce any legislation respecting in-
solvency this session. The question
as to what it would be expedient to

been considered
RAILWAY LANDS.
Mr. Oliver asked -le the Government
aware that the fact of the Calgary
and Edmonton and other North-West
rallovays not having completed the
selection and registration of the lands
they have earned enables them to es-
cape school and statute labour taxa-
tion, although no such exeraption was
contemplated when the grant was

the Government to compel these com-
panies to complete the selection of
their lands forthwith, so that they
abetl be coinpelled to bear their fair
share a the buedens of education and
publie improvements in the Terri-
tories?
Mr. Dobell intimated that the ques-
tion had been brought to the atten-
tion of the Government, and added

sidering how far the present state of
affairs justified the application of a
system of compulsory selection.

far it should. receive material assist-
se.tlee. •

'Way company to -which it is oppos-

tiou by suclt railway 'company un-
less it receives a well subsidy t 'Mien
does the Government Intend to compel

pany to complete their selectIou of

raent to manufaeturers asking for ba -
THE BRANDING OF CHEESE.
Mr. McLennan (Glengarry) moved
tbesecond reading of his bill toaruend
the Dairy Products Act of 1893. He ex-
plairted that the bill was the same as
had. been up for the last three ses-
sions, anti which had already been
several times explained. The bill was
intended to provide for the braedin f
clatiese, a, percaution. welchUr.
Lennan con.sidered very advisable, in
order to nmiutain the bigh standard
of the Canadian article in the British
market, Mr. McLenuan spoke at spine
lengthin eupport of his bill, wbith
was read a second time.
RAILWAY EMPLOY.nS.
Mr. Ala.:lean moved the second read-
ing of o. bill for the letter protection
of tbe emptoyes of railway conilnanes
and other's. The bill eeelis to provide
that by the year 1900 the railway com-
panies of Canada shall equip their
trains with automatic couplere and air
brakes. He hoped the Goverument
would recognize the principle a the
measure, and give the Liouse the as-
surance that tbey would help to se-.
cure its passage.
Mr. Laurier staid. the Government did
not t1ixI it ativieabie to make the bill
a Governmera meaeure. Tbere was a
geod deal to he eaid for knit eines of
tbe question. The bill toes worthy. ot
consideratiou from a humanit erten
stand/mita, but the mile ay cunirany
lied alleged the exietence of obstacles
weicli would prevent the adoption of
the desired reforms. Tbe bill should
go to the Railway Conuaittee. where
the whole matter could be thrashed out.
The motion or the second reading
Was then carried.
ALIEN LAI1OUR.
Air, Taylor moved the Oveond read-
ing. of his bill to pruldoit the impor-
t-atm:in and inamigratieu ot foreigners
and aliens under coutract, or agree-
ment to perfornt labeur in Canada.
Tee knit, he said, was an exact copy of
stliulteauteasure in foie* in the United
Mr. Laurier was perfectly emissions
that le all the border towns of Canada
great discontent prevailed with respect
to the operation of tbe labour law on
the other side of the line. Ile quite
agreed that the character of the Am-
, erwan iegislatiou NV as vary unfriendly
and very offensive to Canadians. While
that was true however, there was no
escaping the conclusion that to adopt
the law now Prolueeed would be a san-
iliar blot on. oar own legislation. He
had just learned fur the first time,
that eorrespontience bad taken plane
betueen the American and Canadian ,
authorities on the subject, and before
proceeding further he t bought it
would be advLsaole for the Government
to read that correspondence, to See
whether it was nut possible to avoid
tutfrieudly atter hav-
ing taken eogiezance of the mare:men-
denial he fulled there was no way of
escape from the conclusion to oi bich
Mr. easier had arrived, be would give
him *eery oppOrlMilly at the next
eittiug ut the Heuse to proceed with
the bat it he deemed. Ile therefore
moved tite adjournment of the debate,

Ht. IlSON'S BAY CANAL.
Mr. land introduced a bill to in-
corporate the Hudson's By Canal and
; Navigation Cempanyo
EMIGRATION TO BRAZIL.
Mr. Bergeron called the attention of
the Government to the feet that the
steamer Moravia, ot the Brazilian line,
was at present in the port of elontreal,
and that agents of that line were try-
ing to engage the iaeople of this conn -
try to go and work on the coffee plan-
tations of Brazil. Ile asked if the Gov-
ernment was taking steps to protect
our people from going to that coun-
try?
Mr. Laurier replied that the matter
had not been called to the attention
of the Goverinaent. He did not see
very plainly what action the Govern-
ment could. take. Every Canadian could
go where he pleased, although it would
be well if they could be persuaded not
to go to Brazil for settleraent, as
nansela was in every way a far better
country. (Applause.) If they ,should.
go, Jaowever, they should look very
carefully into the value and character
of the contracts upon which they went.
DISCUSSIONS :CN SUPPLY,
The motion to adjourn was then de-
clared lost, and the House went into
Committee of Supply.
On the. Civil Governraent estiraates
of the Public Works Department
Mr. Bergeron asked whether Mr.
Tarte intended to take back, when
work in his deperanent becanae more
plentiful, time men whom ne had dia-
missed,
Mr. Tarte replied that the dismissals
mode included different classes of men,
some of whom were reported on as un-
fit for thele positioes, and. others who
were really good men, but for whom
there 'was no work. He had not die.
missed one permanent man.
GENERAL GASCOIGNE'S LETTER.
Six Charles Tupper asked Mr. Lau-
rier if he had considered the matter
of bringing clown the letter from Gen.
Gascoigne vvlacb had been asked for.
Mr. Laurier -Yes. The Governxaent
has no objection to the letter being
brought down, but the Goyernment
consider it a matter between the two
officers, and the moment they agree
among themselves to have it brought
deem it will be brought down at once.
MILTTIA. DRILL VOTE,
The vote of $446,500 fox the annual
militia drill for the present year was
passed tlerough its final stages,
DISCUSSIONS IN SUPPLY.
On the item of $2,000 for the salary
of the Deputy Speaker, Mr. Foster
asked for an explanation. He recall-
ed the fact that some years ago there
had been some very decided opinions
expressed by the Liberals with refer-
enoe to the necessity for such an of-
ficer, and that the salary might well be
saved to the taxpayers of the country.
Was this to be another case of the
Goveenraent swallowing i the principles
they had so often expressed?
Mr. Laurier said he •Irati besita-
tion in giving an answer in -so far as
he
was oertain he had never at any
place or time eatneessed any opinions
against the position of Deputy Speak-
er. Teere had beem he knew, on his
side of the House, and perhaps on the
other, some difference of opinion on
the. matter, but he had never said a
word in his life against the Deputy
Speaker. On the oontrary, being a
strong admirer of the British eonsta
tution, .hal desired to imitate a
as far as possible. He believed that
aathough at one time the office might
riot have been necessary, the increas-
ing volume of business now made it
ueeessary.
The item was allowed to Pan/.
HURRICANE AT PARIS.
.6.11••••,
oof of the Opera Combine Blown In -
People /Mown Into the.itiver and Trees
fproottel.
A despatch from Paris, sayst-Traf-
fie in the streets was stelMed for two
hours by a severe wind and rain storm
that passed over this city on Thursday
afternoon. The wind blew with hur-
ricane tome and the downpour of rain
was torrential. Much damage was done
and several persons were injured by
being struck by flying debris. Two
hours before the storm broke the at-
raosphere gave indications of its com-
ing. It was dark and sultry and the
clouds heti a peculiar lowering appear-
ance. Among the buildings that stood
in the pathway of tbe cyclone was the
Opera. Coe:ague, the roof of winch was
blowa in. Most of the persons Marred
were cab drivers. A reporter of The
Temps, who witnessed the cyclone from
the top of an omnibus, says that it
did not last. for more thee a reunite.
He suddenly saw what appeared. to be
a tall pillar of smoke edvaucing and
imagined that there was a large fire.
But almost ilmeedia.tely he saw the
branches of trees slumped off "and
countless chimney pate burled to the
groued. Then the storm inunediatelY
passed away. Those on tbe omnibus
were untouebed. The west end of the
city wholly escaped the fury of the
storm, but eastward along the river
way much destruction was caused. Be-
tween the. Pont St. Melia -el and Pont
Neuf 40 large trees were torn out of
the ground and blown into the Seine,
Many permits who were passing across
the bridge or along the river front
were caught up by the wind and
thrown into the river, but so fax as
known all of these were rescued.
FATAL RAILWAY ACCIDENT.
Engineer Facer and Fireman 401inson
Milled on the T. Et. ot
A. deseratch from. Harailton says -&
fatal accident occurred on the Toron-
to, Hamilton & .Suffalo Railway at the
tee western city limits about 5.$0 on
Wednesday eveeing, the unfortunate
victim' being Engineer James Facer and
Fireman George Johnson, both of
Waterford. The passenger train going
west, which is due to leave the Hun-
ter street station a few minutes after
5 Mein*, accideetalla ran into an open
• • e e
switch at the Y just. beyond Garth
stanza the ,fireman, it is supposed, aot
observing the. signal, which was on his
side, and consetitiently not knowing
that the switch was open. The en-
gine and tender and baggage car jump-
ed the rails, the hind wheels of the
latter going on the siding, and in the
mix-up the engirte and tender were
ehovect into the ditch, both badly dam-
aged. Fortunately not more than two
per.sons were hurt in the accident, but
he victims were terribly injured Fire-
,
man joheson especially suifering an WV-
bineatbanhe engine, and it. ovas evid-
entthat he had been killed almost in-
stantlyi The injector pips bad pene-
trated the poor fellow's body, and while
death was mercifully relieving tuna of
his agony hot steam from the pipe was
boring into his intestines. He left a
widow and family. Engineer Facer
was thrown about 20 or 30 feet on the
ties, and the back of his head was
smashed. He did not anti i ze the ser-
iousness of leis injuries, and of those
who tenderly cared for him as well as
possible under the circumstances he
asked if he were going to die. He
scarcely heard the words of eimour-
ageraent spoken in reply, for just as he
was about to speak again he gave a
gasp of pain, and the struggle was
endetl. Tbe bodies of the two men
were removed to the morgu.e, and an in-
quest will be held.
IT MAY LEAD TO TROUBLE.

The Vatted Slates Rave Launched a Vessel
on the Lalkes-BritIsla Experts Claim
She is it Warship.
A despatch from Cleveland, says:
It is probable that diplomatio compli-
cations will arise between the United
States and Great Britain over the raain-
tenazace on the great lakes of dm rev-
enue cutter Walter Q. Gresham, which
was launched here en Saturday. Brit-
ish neval experts bold, after a care-
ful examination of the plans of the ves-
sel, that he should be classed as a
war,slaip, rather than as a revenue cut-
ter, and that her maintenance on the
lakes would be a violation of tbe treaty
entered into by the United States and
Great Britain, whereby only one war
vessel can be maintained on the lakes
by each Government. It is known that
the naval a.ttathes of the British Em-
bassy at Washington have made a
complete report to their Government
upon ths vessel, in evialeh they have
classed it as a gunboat. Should com-
plaint be made, the State Department
will respond by &eying that tbe Gres-
ham and the other two similar cutters
which are to lye built for service an the
lakes are siraply for revenue marine
service, and foa• nothing else, and will
cal attention to the fact that England
was first to adopt this novelty in the
construction of the revenue eaters
which were .built two years ago for the
Canadian revenue mantle, and that in
addition to the, novelty of their tame -
menet the Canadian vessels carry heavy
steel rams.

dynamite faction of the Irish party.
He has been travelling under the name
of George Gordon and other aliases.

day evening he put up at the Hotel
Folkestone, where he did not hesitate
to expound his Fenian views in the bar
of the hotel. His movements had been
watched from the time he ead arrived
in French territory. The local com-
missary of police, together with an
English detective, burst into his room

BUILT UP THE
SYSTEM IN A
WONDERFUL
ER
James A. Bell, of Beaverton, Ont.,
brother of the Rev. John Wesley Bell,
13.D., prostrated by nervous headaches
.A victim of the trouble for seweral
years. a
South American Nervine effected a
complete cure.
In their own particular field few men
are beter known than the Rev. John
Wesley Bell, B.D. and his brother Mr.
James A. Bell. The termer will ce re-
cognized by his thousands of friends all
aver the country as the popular and able
missionary superintendent of the Royal
Teniplars of Temperance. Among the
291,000 members of this order in Ontario
his counsel is -sought on all sorts of oc-
casions. On the public platform he is one
of the strong nien of the day, battling
against the evils of Intemperance.
Equally well ltnown is Mr. Bell in other
provinces of tbe Dominion, having been
for years a member of the Manitoba
Methodist Conference and part of this
time was stationed in Winnipeg. His
brother, Mr. names A. Bell, is a nighly
respected resident of Beasrerton, wnere
his influence, though perhaps 'more cir-
cumscribed than that of his eminent
brother, is none the less effective and
produetire of good. Of recent yearsatew-
ever, the working ability of Mr. James
A. Bell has been sadly marred by severe
attacks of nervous headache, accom-
panied by indigestion. Who can do fit
work when this trouble takes hold of
them and especially when it becomes
chronic, as was, seemingly, the case with
Mr, Bell? The trouble reaeb.ed sucn
ia-
tenaity that last June he was complete..
ly prostrated. In this coedition a friend
recommended South American NTrvine.
Ready to try anything and everytning,
though he thought he had eovereu tha
list of proprietary medicines, he secured
a bottle of this great discovery. 41,
second bottle of the medicine was taken
and the work was done. Dinploying his
own language: "Two bottles of South
American Nervine immediately relieved
my headaches and have bunt up my,
system in a wonderful manner.- Let us
not deprecate the good our clergymen
and social reformers are doing in tha
world, but how ill -fitted they would be
for their work were it not the relief
that South American Nervine brings te
them when physical ills overtake
them, and when the system, as a re.
suit of bard, earnest and continuous
work, breaks clown. Nervine treats the
system as the wiue retormer treats tha
evils he is battling against. It strares at
the root of the ,trouble. All die • _
ease comes from dlsorganizatien.,0 the
nerve centers. This is a scientifli ,fact.
Nervine at once works on these nerve
centers; gives to them health and vig
or; and then there courses through the
system strong, healthy, liatmaintaming
blood, and nervous troubles of every
variety are things of the pain.
