We shall uot spend all this during the present year ; but a good deal of it will be expended, and what is not laid out will be spread over years to come in each of which, unless the Govern,- enent has an economical turn, another vast sum will be voted. We are doing pretty well in this era of retrenchment, and Mr, McMullen, with Dr. Lander.. kin and the Patron members, are en- thusiastic in their endeavours to load us down with debt, x x• It is said that Perliament will be asked to vote $20,000 toward helping on Lady A.berdeeia's proposal for the establishment of the Victorian Order of Nurses. The scheme has been sufficiently discussed in the press and in meetings to show that it does not warrant any such support. It was not asked for by the people, nor evet snaall section of them, and had it not been eoddled by a few whose social and political relations made a refusal somewhat. awkward, it would have died coinpletely in a month. Her Ladyship's intentions may be all right, but her scheme is too visionary and impracticable, and positively un- called for. The deplorable accident which hap- pened Tuesday, says the St. Marys Argus, at the barn raising M Mr. T. Clifford's south boundary, terminated in a ead manner in the death of the a 'Wail% Mr. Geo. Wells. The best care and. medical skill proved unavailing, as he had not recovered consciousness up to the time of death, which took place Wednesday night. The remains were removed to the home of his father, Mr. jonathan Wells, 6th con. West Nissouri, on Thursday-. The accident which occurred a fort- night ago to Mrs Alex. Mills, of Avon - bank when she was attacked by a vicious animal while driving the cattle into a yard near her b.orne, has resulted in the death of the lady. Hopes had been entertained at first that the injuries though severe would notprove fatal, and deep regret was experienced by many friends when the sad news was made known. De- ceased was a sister of Mr. S. Watson, of St. Marys. In the spring of 1896 J. B. Hogate, of Omaha,Neb.'and son E. R.

The announcement tltat the services ,at St. Goorge's Chapel would be private and for the nicinners of the Royal Family Duly prevented the gathering of a large crowd. The scene was most im- pressive and the services very simple. leer Majesty sat in the chair of state, innueoilitely in trout of the communion tail, end just beside the brass plate whose nieeription designates the spot which wee ihe temporary place of -en- Unbent of the Prince Consort, The laillee mid gentlemen et"ho are the grand officers of the Qaceit's house- hold entered first, followed by the mili- tary knights of Windsor, iu the full vostume or cocked hats and scarlet roats.

The Dean of Windsor, wearing the in- signia of Chaplain of the Order of the Garter„ officiated. , Punetually at 11 o'clock, sunlit thasott strains of ite orgau voluntary, the Queen arrived froze the cloisters at the entranee. Assisted by her Indian at- tendant, Her Majesty walked slowly to the chair of state, the cougregation standing. The Queen was dressed in black exeept for a white tuft in her lion-. net. The Empress Frederick of GermanSe attired in deep black, took the seat et the right of the Queen, while the Duke of Counaught, wearing his Windsor uni- form, seated himself at her left. The others grouped themselves closely be- hind and looked very 1,90 a Simple lank- ily of worshippers. Among them were ihe Duchess of Connaught, Prince }leery of Prussia and the Princess Henry, Prince Christian and Princess Christina, with their children; Princess Henry of Battenberg, the Grand Duke Sergins and Grand Duchess. Ordinary ruorning prayers began with a short exhortation from Timothy I., and the suffrages, after the creed, con- tained these sentences: Priest: O. Lord, save the Queen, Asnwer: Who putteth her trust In Thee. Priest: Send her help from Thy holy place. Answer: And ever more mightily de- fend her. Priest: Let her enemies have no ad- vantage over her. • Answer: Let not the wicked approach to hurt ber. After the first collect a special collect Was read, and instead of the usual prayer for the Queen and Royal Family two special prayers were substituted, containing the following: "Almighty God, who ruleth oVer all the - kingdoms of the world and disposeth of them according to Thy.good pleasure., we yield Thee unfeigned thanks for that thou west pleased to place Thy servant, our sovereign lady Queen Victoria, upon the throne of this realm. Let Thy wis- dom be her guide and let Thine arm strengthen her; let justice, truth and holiness, let peace and love flourish in her days. Direct all her counsels and endeavors to Thy glory, and the welfare of her people, and give •us grace to obey her cheerfully for conscience. Let her always possess the hearts of her people, let her reign be long and prosperous and crown her with unmor- telity in the life to come." A special prayer for unity was said, and there were special psalms and gos- pels used instead of those for the day, the gospel being the sixteenth verse of the twenty-second chapter of St. Mat- thew: "Render. therefore, unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's." ThAt was no sermon,. but a special hymir-written by the Mght Rev. Wil- liam Welsham, Lord Bishop of Wake- field, with music by Sir Arthur Sulli- van, was sang at Her Majesty's re- quest. The third verse was as follows: of gettilig the additional signatures. He only got a few more names and then so1.41 the notes, making the thirteen that had signed. liable for the $2200. On Monday of last week E. R. Hogate, the son was arrested at Brussels on the charge of laelping his father to obtain the notes under false pretenses and fraud, but was acquitted before Alex. Hunter, S. P., on the ground that the representation was not made by him. An effort was made to get hold of the senior Hogate, -abut without success, and as the matter stands those who signedthe notes will be held responsible for and have to pay the full amount. Granton.

Sir Walter Parrett was at the organ. The service lasted forty minutes, the Qtteen remaining seated -throughout and following closely the special prayers and hymn. At the end there was a pause. The Queen, with bowed head, continued in silent prayer. Then follewed a touching scene, which will ever linger in the memory ot those who witnessed it. Sum- moning the Empress Frederick. who bowed loW at her side,_ the Qtteen -kissed her on both cheeks. The Duke of Con- naught and the other members of the family followed, receiving a similar token of affection on bended knee. In many cases the recipient was kissed sev- eral times. The Queen Was profoundly moved, and the tears rolled down her cheeks. At last, and evidently with great reluctance, Her Majesty beckoned her Indian at- tendant, and, leaning on his arm,. passed slowly out of the chapel, the entre con- gregation standing, the soft light falling through the multi -colored windoweand the exquisite strains ef the organ rising and swelling beneath the gothice ban- nered roof. It was a scene never to be forgotten, and thrilled all present with strong emotions. THE rnmaan IS O.
