A despatch from Montreal says: That the highest death -rate is among "other Catholics," which is the form in the health statistics used to denote all Catholics not French-speaking, is the conclusion arrived at by Dr. Louis Laberge, Medical Health Officer, in compil- ing ,statisties for his report for the past twelve months. The percen- tage of deaths as against births is as follows :—Other Catholics, 66.71; Freneh-speaking Catholics, 59.40; Protestants, 59.10; Jews, 33.14. The statistics show a total of 17,637 births during 1911. and 9,974 deaths; or a difference of 7,663. .11 FOUND SNARE IN MILE. Montreal Woman Made Starflhiig Discovery. A despatch from Montreal says: After opening- a bottle of milk on Thursday morning Mrs. Rosa La - moth, Workman Street, was hor- rified when a small snake sprang to the ground and lay there hissing. Having reeovered from her fright Mrs. Lainathe telephoned the Health Department, which sent an inspector to the house to kill the reptile. The snake was of the harmless variety, and it is supposed that it either fell into a milk -pail or was in the water with which the bottle was washed. PASSED CENTURY MARE.

He had made his home there for many years, formerly residing in Muskoka. He was still in fairly good health until a short time be- fore death, Had he lived until next Hallowe'en he Would have reached his 102nd birthday. GRADUATE OF LAVAL. Convicted of Practising Medicine A despatch front London says: The body of the late General Wil- liam Booth wag' laid on Thursday beside that of Catherine Booth, his wife in Abney Park cemetery, amid signs of deep respect from men and women of all classes. Representa- tives of reigninghouses and of Presidents of Republics, joined round the 'grave with many thou- sands. from the masses whom the • founder of the Salvation Army had tried to uplift. Delegates of legis- lative bodies, civic corporations, the army, the navy, business inen of all branches, workme,n• who had sacrificed their day's wages, weep- ing women and children of whom* the General was a true frond, marched .shoulder to 'shoulder in the great precession whioh followed the body of the General to its last sim- ple resting place. The coffin was borne from the great doorway of headquarters ot the hearse, which was decorated only with dry palms placed over the " Blood and Fire" banner draping the casket. The celebrated battle flag which the General had planted on Calvary was placed at the head of the coffin, and as this was done the flags of the Foreign deputations and of English provincial corps dipped in salute. At the same time the vast crowd reverently uncovered their heads. Then the General's campaign cap and favorite Bible were lifted on to tha platform of hte funeral car. The scene was a most impressive one, as the delegates from the pro- vinces and abroad, stepping slowly to the •solemn strains of the "Dead March in Saul," ,played by fOrty bands, marched pa,st the funeral car, and came to the full salute as they stepped by the coffin. A guard of honor. composed of the chief lo- cal and foreign officers of the Salva- tion Army, stood at attention round -,-itlespatch from 'Ottawa says: eXabinet at its sitting on Wed - ;clay rescilvecl to pnrchasc five go and powerful engines for the bereolonial, , to cost $i10,000. teen were •ortlered a few days bringing the additions up. to the hearse. • Each corps was pre- ceded by a group of battle flags, • At the' strains of music from each band died away after it had pased the coffin another band took up the Leading the hearse when the pro- cession started was a carriage filled with splendid floral tokens sent by dignitaries • and distinguished :friends of the late General. Imme- diately after the hearse a selected botlYgua,rd of staff offieers of the Salvation Army swung into line, preceding the mourners of the fam- ily, who were led by General and Mra. Bramwell. Booth. Then came forty-eight brigades of members of the Army and these were, followed by a rear -guard composed of offi- cers froin the international •head- quarters and the emigration staff. The procession was over a mile in length, and those composing it car- ried Salvation Army banners. A' short distance from the starting point in Queen Victoria Street the coffin passed the Mansion House, the Bank of England and the Stock Exchange. As General Booth had .been an lionorarY freeman of the City of London, the Lord Mayor appeared on the balcony of the Mansion House and saluted the coffin. The procession Look three hours to traverse the five miles from the Starting point to the cemetery gates. All along the line, on both sides of the streets, enormous crowds looked on. The,se became more dense as the approach to the Cemetery was reached. The service was a very simple jne, consisting of singing of Salva- tion Army hymns. General Bram- well Booth and his .sister, Miss Eva Booth, commander-in-chief of the Salvation Army in America, deliv- ered Speeches, while the General's youngest daughter sang a solo.

New Project Aims at Making Use of Cape St. Charles., In addition to the scheme which is now being officially considered with a view to the shortening of the pas- sage between the Mother Country and Canada, which necessitates the construction of six fast steamers, capable of conversion into armed cruisers, for the Liverpool -Halifax route, another project aims at mak- ing use of Cape Si. Charles, on the south-east coast of Labrador, as a port for ocean liners. At this pont there is a harbor ample enough to accommodate •the largest vessels, either afloat or projected. It is, moreover, open all the year round, and is only 1682 miles from Liver- pool, 'which could be reached by 22 - knot liners in about. three days. The, +distance by land from Quebec is some 900 ,miles, and a railway would, of course, be necessary, but by November next nearly a hun- dred miles of the line will be ready for traffic as far as the Saguenay River. The completion of the plans, which is strongly favored in the Do- minion, would cut off the Straits of Belle Isle and provide a route across the Atlantic, which, it is said, passes through a shorter ice zone than any other taken by boats between Europe and North Amer- ica, excepting only the extreme southern one to New York.

RUSSians Like German Product Better Than Czar's Brew. Gorman beer is steadily increas- ing in favor among the peasantry in .southern Russia, and the village 'vodka houses are more and more being replaced by beer taverns. The fact that the Russian moujik is discarding vodka for beer is hail- ed even by temperance reformers with unalloyed satisfaction as a first step in the rig.ht and much de- sired direction; for the Russian 'Vodka, the manufacture and sale oi which is a crown monopoly, is admittedly the vilest and most de- moralizing national drink of any country in Enrope. It has for it couple of generations, i.e., ,since the emancipation of the serfs, been the veritable bane, phy- sically, materially and morally, of the Russian peasant As, however, this spiritous poison isa source of Government revenue, its replacement by beer is viewed with undisguised disfavor by the ex- cise authorities.'

The potato crop reports from all potato growing districts show an tinusually heavy yield. The west- ern part of Ontario and the vicinity of Orangeville, as well as the Mari- time Provinces and the Delawa,re Valley, all have excellent yields. The acreage this year has greatly increased. Since last week the price of tu- bers has fallen off 35.per bag whole- sale. In a few days the retail prices will be 85 to 90 cents per bag, whereas last winter, Torontonians paid $2 per bag for potatoes im- ported from Ireland.
