A Congress of the Workmen's and Soldiers' Delegates of all Russia has convened in Petrograd and will dis- cuss the questions of organization of power, peace and war, and the for- mation of a Constituent Assembly. A delegation has been named by the Congress to confer witir other revolu- tionary and demodratic organizations with a view to initiating peace nego- tiations for the purpose of "tatting steps to stop the bloodshed." Government forces holding the Winter Palace were compelled to capitulate early Thursday morning under the fire of the cruiser Aurora and the cannon of the St. Peter and St. Paul Fortress across the Neva.

A despatch from- New York says: The Associated Press issued the fol- lowing on Thursday night: There has been no cessation in the retreat of. the Italians across the Venetian Plains towards the new line of -defense, on which it is purposed to stand and face the invading Germans and Austro -Hungarians. Tho larger units of the Italians are' falling back without.molestation, according to the Rome official. communication, but considerable fighting has taken place in the hills of Vittorio_ and at other points in the north. The Berlin War Office says that on the middle Tagliamento River Italian troops who were still standing ,out against the invaders were captured. A General and 17,000 additional Ital- ian troops are reported to have been captured, bringing the total prisoners since the retreat from the Isonzo be- gan to more than 250,000, according to Berlin. It is also said that in ex- cess of 2,300: guns have fallen into the hands of :the Teutonic allies.

The Vancouver percent- age is 22.71; Kenora is second with 17.95, and Calgary third with 11,49. NOVELTIES IN FIREWORKS. Play an Important Part in Modern Warfare. In a battle, under modern 'condi- tions, fireworks play a very important part, inasmuch as the fighting goes on at night as well as by day, and the combatants must see what the enemy is doing. Most of the pyrotechnic contrivances used take the form of bombs and rockets -mere modifications of fire- works of the kind long familiar at Victoria Day celebrations. One of -the newest devices in this line is a bomb which when it bursts' high in the air throws out a number of "candles" that light up the sur- rounding country with a vivid glare, revealing the movements of the en- emy. Each candle is provided with a para- chute, by which it is upheld in the air, falling .very slowly toward the earth and burning for a long time before it reaches the ground. Another contrivance is a so-called "parachute rocket," fired from a short rifle. It has a range of 1600 yards. When it bursts in the sky it liberates a parachute that carries a cartridge filled with a 'chemical which burns slowly but with great brilliancy. The cartridge, which burns for forty seconds, is suspended close beneath the parachute, the latter serving• as a reflector to throw the light downward in the form of a cone. By this means the intensity of the light is much aug- mented, so that moving objects on the ground Are made plainly visible. BRAZIL WILL CONTROL ALL GERMAN BANKS. A despatch from Rio Janeiro says: The Chamber of Deputies has adopted all the meaeures recommended to the Congress by President Braz as .re- prisals against German agents, as well as supplementary measures, 'in- cluding a state of siege. These meas- ures include the annulment of con- tracts for nubile works entered into with Germans; prohibition of new .land concessions to German subjects and of the transfer of ownership •of German properties; • control of Ger- man banks and German • commercial firms and the internment of German suspects. It -was at de time stated that there were in Holland at least 9,900 large windmills, of which the sails ranged from 80 to 100 feet long. At that time their yearly cost was reported to be nearly $10,000,000. The mills are used for many purposes -for saw- ing timber, beating hemp, grinding, but their principal use has always been to pump water from the lowlands into the cabals, to protect the little country from being inundated. �• Idillteed-Car lots, delivered Montreal freights, bags included -Bran, per ton, 535; shorts, do., $92; middlings, do,r546 to 540; good feed flour, per bag, 53.25.

The great expansive power of tree - growth is shown in The Guide to Na- ture, by H. E. Zimmerman. Writes Mr.•Ziminernian: "Accurate experiments have been made by scientific investigators to show the remarkable power of grow- ing plants. It has been found that comparatively delicate plants have, in their growth, lifted weights total- ling hundreds of pounds. Some years ago a picture was published in Strand Magazine, showing how a plant had pushed itself up through a hard pave- ment constructed, of asphalt, gravel, etc. The growing power of a tree, especially after it has attained con- siderable size, is cor'respondingly greater. Contrary to what many peo- ple think, most rocks have 550535 or cracks of varying definiteness, or they eventually develop them through the action of rain, frost and sunshine.. Into these cracks, however . minute, the rootlets of small plants penetrate, carrying with them a little humus, to decay and to be followed by other 'roots, Moisture follows, which freez- es and crocks off small rock -particles, when larger roots find their way in, carrying and deepening througleeethe course of many years, becomes filled with drifting' diet, when perhaps a seed of some tree- blows into it, and then the real process of rock -splitting begins on a larger and more rapid scale. If the rock lies a well-develop- ed seem the expansive force of the roods of a tree is likely to split it en tirely asunder, _. ..,.,y.,,=raccu�traa.a,nesmme.m�„r.m,s..,,,.,natn,n.,s,u THE �n.. win it �r QF TUE ���r�i • HE BEST CARTOON WEEK •a.

In the days of very long ago, when all men were prepared to fight at any and all times because one could not know whether another approaching was a friend or an enemy, all men went armed. This was before the day of guns when the sword was the great weapon of defense. Upon •occasion, when one man ap- proached another, each had to decide whether the other came on a peace- ful mission or not. People in those days were mostly rigihthandecl, as they are now, and when fighting carried their swords in their right hands. If, then, a man wished to speak with a stranger, or, as might easily be ne- cessary, to one who may even be known to be unfriendly, he put out his right hand upon approaching to show that he had no deadly or dan- gerous weapon in it, says the "Book of Wonders." The other man could see this, and knew from the extended open hand that no harm was in- tended and that theapproach was peaceful. If, then, he was willing to meet the other, he also extended his right arm with the hand open, to show him who was approaching that his fighting hand was empty also, and when they met each would grasp the hand of the other, so that neither one could change his hind and assume a fight- ing attitude without the other haw ins an equal warning. Do You Carve This Wray? A famous French chef lays down the following laws f01' calving 1'oaet chicken: Lay the chicken on its side, Stick your fork into the leg and lift it up, meanwhilecholding down firmly the rest of the chicken. Cut through the joint on the back; pressing the joint between the leg and, second joint, cut through, Stick your fork into the wing so as not to interfere with the knife; cut through the joint and loosen Lhe heat surrounding it; pull down with the; fork and press firmly on the Carcass with the knife, Do all this ciirofully and you can pull all the meat from the breast with the wing. Now cut each breast crosswise in half, Turn the chicken over and carve the other side. SILVER BULLET.
