Gibson, of 'Wroxeter, brother of Thos. Gibson, M. P. Pe will be appointed Registrar of Huron as successor to James Dickson, deceased. This was decided at a meet- ing held in Toronto on Friday of last week.. Queini Vioxonte has seen At to grant royal favor to Li Hung Cbaug and his Sons by knighting them. Mr, Id has forwarded presents to Osborne castle for Her Majesty valued at over $25,000. We would imagine that would nearly square the account. Tue Czar of Russia is to viait the Queen and groat preparations ere being made for his reception. Couldn't Her Condone Majesty introduce hien to Hon. W. E. Gladstone and let the Grand old man have a plain talk with him on Turkish atrocities in Armenia. Some people state that the visit of the Czar has political siguificaucs and that good will come of it. MAxr and severe ere the criticisms of the Directors of the Toronto Fair in their actions at the recent visit of Li Hung Chang from the fact diet instead of them calling attention to the great and good they seemed to think the capacity of the Chivanian in his hurried call guaged to the performance of a ballet singer and dancer. It was a great opportunity lost never to return, and the public stand in wonderment at the short sightedness of the keen and quick witted gentlemen who stand at the head of the Industrial. Wert a many nations are complaining of hard times and failing resources Japan is rejoicing in a treasury frill of hard cash from China in the purchase of peace. It will be remembered that the island of Formosa also came into possession of the jape but nob with the consent of the is- landers and hence an iosnrrectiou result- ed. A subscription has been started iu Japan for the relief of Formosans render- ed homeless by the receut rebellion, The Emperor set the example by subscribing 3000 yen, the Treasury gave 4000, and private subscriptions are rapidly coming into the newspaper offices. The rebellion is now virtually stamped out, with the exception of desultory raids. Anontsnitu the bars en the Senate and Commons at Ottawa was a move in the right direction but the sale and consump- tion of liquor on the premises should be absolutely prohibitory. If strong drink is to be used at all by our legislators then the men who pay their money for licenses to carry on the business have the right to sell rather than the keeper of a restaur- ant in the Parliament buildings. Ar- rangements will be made at next session of the Commons for taking a plebiscite in the Dominion in connection with the Prohibition question. This will be good news to the temperance people of Canada and will put into practical exercise the promise made by Premier Laurier to the electorate of this broad Dominion. Since the above was written a unanimous vote was passed prohibiting the sale of liquor on the Parliament grounde. Enoonnin and Germany appear to be waking up to the black hearted butphery of the Armenians ab the hands of the blood thirsty Turks. Publie meetings have been held, sermons preached and letters written that is arousing the nat- ions to see the pressing necessity of put. ting a stop to these outrages. It is none too soon as the news from Armenia show that a very serious condition prevails there, and that further massacres are an- ticipated. It is true that the Suitan.has caused all the governors to be notified that they will be held responsible if ont- breaks involving destruction of property and the loos of life occurs. But, such warnings have frequently been issued in the past, and they seem to have served more to create disorder than to suppress it, and this would went to be the case iu the present instance, for, while .warning the governors, as already stated, the sold- iers have beou notified that they are an. thorized to use their amts in self defense, if they are attacked. cirs1.11tbroole.

STRANGER THAN FiCTION IS Till; TRIIT11 CONCERNING 301IN GIBBONS, OF EAST LONDON He was Torl area with the Pains oreelatie ltlteanuitisn1-Tried Doctors, all 50058 or.lIe,lielnc and Weal to the Hospital' In lain - lir. Williams Pink Pills Cured I1Lu when all, else had Failed. From rho London Advertiser There are two things in this world which John Gibbons, a resident of Queens Avenue East, will henceforth place im- plicit confidence in. One is the judgment of his wife and the other the curative qualities of Dr. Williams :fink Pills. In Itis wise the two wont hand in hand - Mrs. Gibbons thought of the remedy, the pills did the rest, and to -day Mr. Gibbons is a well man where last fall he was virtually a cripple. An Advertiser re- porter called at the house the other even. ing and was met at the door by Mr. Gib- bons, to whom be told the object of his visit, and was cordially invited in. The reporter had no sooner got comfortably seated when Mr. Gibbons went into an adjoining room. The sound of clinking bottles floated through the half open door and when Mr. Gibbons re -appeared he had in 1115 arms a whole basket of bottles -all he has to show for many and many a hard-earned dollar spent in useless drugs. As Mr. Gibbons was busy show- ing the bottles and descanting upon the impotency of the medicines they had con - tamed, the reporter had abundant oppor• tnnity of marking the personal appear- ance of the man. His speech betrays his English birth and his face still bears the marks of suffering, but his frame is erect, Ms step light and elastic, and when he tells yon that he can work, run or jump with any man, you cannot help but be- lieve him. He is 29 years of age, and was born in Bow Road, Stratford, England. He came to Canada in 1882 and located at Galt, where he is well and favorably known. 115 worked for the Hon. lir. Young, M. P., for a long time, and seven years ago he married Miss Alice Mann, also of Galt. After Mr. Gibbons removed to London he settled down near the car shops and did very well, always having plenty of work and always having the strength to do it. He cared nothing about a wetting until one day a year ago he took au acute.attock of sciatic rheumatism following wet feet. "I lay down on this floor," said Mr. Gibbons in telling his story, "night and day, suffering terrible agony. I could not get up a step, and my wife had to help me up from the floor. I felt the pain in my back first. It then apparently left my back and got into my hips. Doctors came here to Bee me ; they gave me prescriptions, but none of them seemed to do me ady good. The neighbors could hear me all over Queens Avenue when I would get an attack of the pains. Last fall I was re. moved out of this place in a back and taken to the hospital. I remained there about three weeks and the doctors did what they could for me. but could not give me any relief. At the end of three weeks I came home again, suffering as much as ever. My wife got bold of a pamphlet which told of a number of re. markable cures by the use of Dr. Wil - hams' Pink Pills, and we determined to try them. I took about three boxes and felt myself getting a little easier. I took thirteen boxes altogether. and it is over two months since I felt the least sng. gestion of pain." "Do you feel that you are entirely cured 7" asked the reporter. "Yes, sir, I can go out and do a doe's work just as well as ever I could. I feel perfectly stroug and have a good appetite. No, I don't want another attack of sick- ness like that," said lir, Gibbons, as he lighted the reporter to the door. Mrs. Gibbons was;Imt at home ou the occasion of the reporter's fust ci -11. Sub- sequently he called on her. and reeeived an entire confirmation of 'lir. Gibbons' story. "He was home all last summer," said firs. Gibbons, "and last August the pains were SO severe ae to bring him down on his knees, and to save himself he could not get up. I had' to lift him off the floor many a time. He seemed powerless. The bottles he showed you had almost all of them been repeatedly filled, so that the number of bottles is no criteron of the amount of medicine taken, Before he took the pills." con- cluded Mrs. Gibbons, "S thought my husband would never be able to stand upright again. But new," she added in parting, "he is as well as ever he was." T . f113, U S S E Pr.

G. T. R, Station Agent Walter E. Sim- mons, of Dublin, has issued a writ against Reeve James Dougherty, of Mitchell, claiming 000 damages forr alleged libel. The statement of claim chargee that Inc. ing the last election Mr. Dougherty wrote Superintendent F. 13. McGuigan of the G. T. R., oomplaining that Mr. Simmons was making himself offensive to the pub. 1io in political matters, etc. Mr. Sim- mons says that the alleged libellous lan• guage was calculated to injure him in his relations to the company. He further says, that by publication of the latter, be has been injured in his relations with the company and bas been threatened with dismissal. The defendant says he will not have the slightest trouble in proving the °barges and intends to fight it to the bitter end.
