Battle Creek, Miele, can probably boast of having been the home of more freak religions than any place of its size on the continent. Less than 50 years ago the Seventh Day Adventists made it their headquarters. The Spiritualiste aeon' after set up their cult in the town, and attracted considerable atteution. It became the State headquarters for spook -hunting, and materialistic free- thinkers and scoffing agnostics used to make the town a regular stand for lec- turing, At one time there was a con- siderable body of Quakers in the place, but the spiritualists seemed to absorb them. Fourierism established a colony in the place, and at one time had a flourishing college and society buildings near the city. They called themselves Harmonists. Dr, Dowling organized a new cult and called his followers Christadelphians, having at one Clue a con. siderable following. The mind healers, under Dr. Swartz, of Chicago, organized the Metaphysical Club, and out of it grew a number of other isms. The De- troit Free Press notes that Battle Creek has had followers and proselyters for the "Hermetic Brotherhood," "Age to Come," "Millennium Dawn," "Breath of Lite," "Theosophy," "Gnostics," "Fire Worship. ers," "Restitutionists," "Saint of God," "Church of the Larger Hope" cults. The latest introduction into the city is a "new thought" cult called the "Elohina Brotherhood." If you cannot find a cult or ism or seet in whieh you ova feel at home, you should visit Battle Creek.

A crash below as if a shutter had par- tially rifted—a yell of triumph—then meowed attacks. St. Maur tionw open a door on the left in the corridor above, and entered a large, handsomely furnished dressina- room with an open inner door to the sleeping -chamber beyond. "My rooms," he said, looking the door; "and who henceforth shall dare ohallenge your right to be ' here ? Strange irony of fate indeed!" Then he dragged a huge wardrobe slowly against the door as a barricade, and going into the bedroom, also bar- ricaded the outer door of that with A heavy old bureau, and a bedstead against that again. °Then he brought his wife a pretty lit- tle six -chambered revolver, lowied, and, like his own, on the halfscock. "You may not need it, sweetheart," he said, as she h14 it in the bosom of her dress, "but it is to hand if you do. Ah, by Heaven! they aro in now!" For, with a crash, the shutters below gave. way, and, with a shout and rusk like a stampede of wild beasts, the rioters burst into the elegant room; then the two above could hear the wan- ton work of wrecking begun; the orash of glass, as decanters were fought for, emptied, and hurled away, mingling with yells, hoarse laughter, and shouts from several half -tipsy follows; while others, furious at finding another door to keep them from their prey, pell-mell attacked it tooth and nail. - "Not one of those blackguards shall ever work for Will Orde again 1" Fal- coner said, between his teeth. Would the rescue never come ? Would the soldiers never come, or come too late? "What—oh, what if some accident has happened to Rahmnee?" said. Christine at last, with the first outward sigu of agitation or fear she had yet -shown. 'erhat made canaille below will be up here soon!" St. Maur turned to her and took her close into his ern's, laying his lips to hers, as a meu might do who knows that it may be the last embrace of the woman he loves. "My first—last love!" he whisperea: "My wile—my all!" Another crash, the drawing -room door was down, and they heard the besiegers, like a pack of woives after their prey, come rushing, jostling, fighting, all the worse for wine, up the stair -way, and Joe Smith's half -drunken voice shout- ing: "This 'ere door, mates. Hearn him a- movin' o' somethink." Falconer loosed his wife and drew his revolver at once. "Whoever first shows at that door," a dead man." For one moment there was a pause. "I don't believe any but Smith has a pistol at all," said St. Maur, "and 1 guess Joe's too many sheets in the wind to aim steady at all.

In 1871 the census showed it to be 3,689,- 257. Ten years later it had. increased less than 650,000. Even in 1891 the total population was only about half a milion greater than that. The census of 1901 gave us 5,371,815. The last ten years has been the grow- ing time in Canada, and instead of our population being drained off to the United States, thee bas been a rush of settlers from across the border. Not only do our own people stay, but there is a steady stream of immigration into Canada. Next year the population of the country will have gained several hundred thousand by these additions. Ac- cording to an estimate made by the Census Department, the population of Canada at the end of March, 1009, was as follows: Maritime Provinces .. 1,037,112 Quebec 2,088,461 Ontario . 2,619,025 • Manitoba . • .. 466,268 Saskatchesvan 341,621 Alberta, — 273,850 British Columbia .. 289,516 Unorganized districts 58,300 Total .. „ „. 7,174,081 There is good reason to expect that the enumeration to be made next June will give Canada a population in excess of 7,500,000. The latest census estimate, published a few days ago, is intersting for purposes of comparieon with that of a year ago: Maritime Provinces ......1,060,678 Quebec................2,124,834 Ontario . . • • . 2,0,87,861 Manitoba .. 496,111 ektekatehewitn 377,500 Alberta 321,862 British CoTuntbia .. 321,733 Unorganized .. 59,050 Imigration not placed. .. 10,86e 7,489,781 Ilere is a gain in one year, aseuming that the figures are likely to be real- ized, of 315,700. It is not improbable that if we keep up the rates of gain the 1911 census may reaell 8,000,000. 4 * - Taste is Localized. Taste is curiously localized. in the month.

Christine had given Mr, Orde a wist- ful, halapteading glance as Falc placed him on the couch; bat she silently took the lamp and obeyed her busband, fol- lowing them*. out. He knew best, and after the shock the old man had received it was better to leave him quite still a while. This, too, was no time or place to speak of a family secret or trouble. She was acknowledged openly in his very house, and that was enough; tae neees- setio of others, the commonplaces of life, called for immediate attention and hospitality. "I think we need not trouble Mrs. St. Maur," said the colonel, after he had given his men orders to remove Smith's corpse. "She has gone through so much to -night." "I had rather be doing something, thank you, colonel," she said, quickly. "Rahmnee and I must wait on yeti ail, you see." In the hall below a council was held as to a temporary prison for the captured rioters; for though many had succeeded in Light for the present, all the ringlead- ers and worse—quite a score—were in custody of the troopers. Joe Smith and the other two men were dead ,and lay now in the wrecked drawmg.room where the prisoners were. St. Maur soon settled that point. There were large empty stables and coach -houses ,.vi th strong doors, and only A sentinel would beneeded till early morning, when the rioters could be hand- ed over to the police. The prisoners, under his guidance, were soon .removed, and crowd enouga they were now; the three bodies, also, were. taken to an outhouse, and the horses— it was a cavalry troop—stabled and fed, in the midst oi which the servants re- turned from their ball. Their conttarna- tion may be imagined, but certainly none the less could the 'score of troopers com- plain of the hospitality they met with in the servants' halt; and after supper the butler, by Falconer's order, told them elf by four a into empty bedroonts to cainp down and sleep. Meanwhile, the dining -room, which was undamaged, was used for the refresh- ment of their officers and guests, host and hoatess. They were standing in a group talking, whilst the invaluable Rahmnee was placing claret and lemon- ade on the table; and St. Maur had just said he would go up and see how his uncle was now, when the door opened, and Mr. Orde tvalked quietly in, very pale certainly, and looking rather hag. eard but like one resolved on his course, and perhaps neither Cokiner Darnley, nor his subaltern, nor Addieon, was so utterly surprised as were Falconer and hie young wife at that course. "Gentlemen," he said, coming forward, "I hope you will pardon my having till now relegated my duty ae host to my adopted son. My excuse must be that Eon not young, and the phyeical fistigue of our long ride—to me so terribly anx- ious a time—endthe great shock which the announeement you heard was to me, quite overcame me; but my own feeliege however jestifiable, must not make me guilty of base ingratitude to a lady who has this terrible night perilled lilo mid repute to save my nephew's life; nor must I"—and now, with a grave, toiteh- ing courtesy, he took Christine's bent into his own—"put the slightest shadow of lodignity or leek of due boner on my nephew's wife, My dear, permit me— gentlemen, be seated?'

Switzerland's Longest Bridge. • According to the London Times, the (longest bridge in Switzerland wee • completed recently on the Toggen- iburg.Conetance line. The bridge, 'which spans a ravine and a stream, is 350m. in length and 982fl. nigh, 'while the principal piers have a foundation depth of 10m, The cen- • tral span is 120m long, Owing to the factthat the line is an important strategic one, precautions have been taken to demolish it instantly, and for this .purpose a dynamite cham- ber has been built under the bridge. About 29,000 cubic metres of masonry were employed in the construction of the bridge, which, so far, has cost 80,000 pounds, Under the eupervieion of Federal engineers and experts, the bridge was substituted to severe tests. Four loaded locomotivee, each weigh- ing 87.7 tons, were placed on the principal span for ten minutes, and a heavy goods train was passed toter at full speed.
