and triumphant day on Thursday

leading the cheers, called for aithree
more for tab baby at home." The
Duchess smiled her appreciation. A
moment later , there Was general
laughter as 'a Rugby football enthus-
iast in the 'crowd shouted, "Another
for the referee." The Duke joined in
the general merriment.
On their way to rejoin the train
the Royal couple walked for a quar-
ter -of a mile doter, the main street
beneath bowers of white roses held
up by; ranks of cheering school chil-
dren.
Other places Visited were New Ply-.
mouth, Hawera, Wanganui) Fending
and Palmerston North; at. all -o f
Which children, including Maori clii1-
tlren at Ilawera, were prominent in
the popular, receptions.

Privy Council, Highest Courtl in Empire, ,Decides' Question
of Ownership of Territory in Labrador Peninsula.
TWORESERVATIONS I L�LRVl;TIONS ARE MADE IN FINDING'. ".
London. -Newfoundland's claim to
ownership ofterritory;in the Labra-
dor peninsula is sustained •in sub-
stance, with two reservations'.
This is the •decision of their Mord;"
ships of the 'judicial committee of the
privy council, who were asked to, de.-
fine'
e.fine' the boundary between. Canada
and Newfoundland in the Labrador
peninsula,' The dispute between the
two dominions was referred to the
privy council by common consent of
both parties.,
Tito two reservations, . 'or rather'
points cf detail, are ,first, ;that while
Newfoundland claims the southern
boundary of Labrador ;should be
'northward front Blanc Sablon Bay to
the .62nd parallel and thence 'west-
ward along the' pardlifl line until it
reaches the height- of land, which
point is considerably to the west of.
the junction of the parallel 'with the'
Romaine 'river- Their lordships tie-
fine the boundary as following' the
parallel .only 'as far. as the' river,
thence . turning northward to ' the
watershed, which turns northward
shortly west ofthe river. From.
the watershed it should run,.'accord-
ing to the decision, ninth and: west
along the Atlantic rivers' watershed
to Cape ChidIey, at the northern tip
of Lab eador.
The second reservation from the,
concessions to Newfoundland is the•
decision that Woody Island, ni small
island opposite the boundary between
Quebec and Newfoundland at Blanc
Sablon Bay,' belongs toeCanada and
not Newfoundland. This island' is
not named on the majority of maps.
The definition of the boundary
places a considerable portion of the
hinterland under. Newfotrndland's
jurisdiction,. because' the' boundary
running north from the Romaine
-river to the northern tip of Labrador
is many miles westward of the little
strip along the coastline which, Can-
ada claimed, was all that Labrador
was entitled to.
Newfoundland claimed ownership
not only of the Atlantic coastline of
Labrador, which as acknowledged to
belong to Newfoundland, but also of
territory back to the peninsula's
height of laud, which territory in-
cludes valuable spruce timber coun-
try.
Canada contended that. Newfound-
land was limited to the mere strip of
land along., the Labrador coastline
which had been granted to New-
foundland in 1768 for fishing facil-
ities. This had been transferred to
Quebec in 1774, but in 1809 was again
granted to Newfoundland.
"Upon the whole, their lordships
having considered the facts and argu-
ments necessary in a matter of such
grave importance, have conte to the
iconclusiou that the claim of New-
foundland is in substance made out,
but: there are two points of detail to
be mentioned."
In this way Viscount Cave, lord
chancellor of the judicial committee,
announced the findings in the special
reference to the committee. , The
judgment runs to 1.0,000 'words, con-
stituting a historic document of the
first importance,

BIOME OF CANADIAN'
HEROINE BURNED
Madeleine de Vercheres and.
Her Husband Entertained
First Bishop of Canada in
Burned Manor.
Three Rivers, Que '-Memories of
Madeleine de Vercheres, heroine of
early Canadian history, were recalled
in the total destruction' by fire of her
home during her married life, the old
Manor of Lanaudiere, at Ste. Anne ,
de la Perade. When the 14 -year-old
girl who immortalized her name by
her successful defence of her fath-
er's. chateau -at Vercheres against In-
dians gems to .wontanitood she mar-
ried I3. de la Perade, -and went to the
home which be had built in 1093. Her
husband gave his name to the village,
and the home of the two was replete
with scenes of early French Canada.
Among others whom_they are said to
have entertained was Bishop Laval,
first Bishop of . Canada.
The manor had continued a centre
of interest through theyears, and In
1886 was restored by the late Honore
Mercier. Nothing remains to -day ex-
cept the ruins. The fire is thought
to have 'been caused by hot ashes
deposited near by.
