PRACTICAL SURVEY. •
John the Bapttiet, by his preaching
Mild mightily stirred the whole na-
tion. Everybody knew: him and knew
aboutehis doctrine. A proud, ambitious
woman, that she might be the "first
lady of the land," had deserted her
husband and married Herod. Such un-
seemly- conduct in the court was
doubtless the subject of general com-
ment. John, the dauntless herald of
righteousness, did not hesitate to de-
nounce such an outrage against dec-
elecy le high places. Irritated by a
consciousness of her own wrong do-
ing, and smarting under the public
rebuke of the great preacher, this
wicked woman could not rest until
John was in prison. Still, ill at, ease,

prisoned and ruthlessly slaughtered.
The outlook for righteousness was, to
say the least, dark. In such an hour
Jesus naturally sought a place of se-
lusion, to mourn, to meditate, to
pray. "He departed thence by a boat
into a desert place apart." The pop-

generator which Mr. Edison has per-

i3radsLreets o11 Trade.
Trade at Montreal has again been seri-
ously interfered with this week by the
snow storms. The conditions of trade,
as reported to llradstreet's, are sound.
Domestic, staple and imported goods are
firmly held. The volume of spring busi-
ness done so far is very fair, all things
considered. Payments on March paper
have been fair, but the slowness of re
tail trade in the country bas to some
extent affe:led the outside trade rela-
tions.
At Toronto the unusually heavy bliz-
zard at the opening of this week causedt
furl her iutcrruption to railway traffic.
and trade has again been adversely af-
fected. The annual spring millinery -
openings this week brought in many
country buyers and house sales have
been large ixstli in millinery and in dry
goods. .Payments on maturing obliga-
tions this week have, been very fair.
Prices of staple and imported goods are
firm.
Trade at Quebec, although not quite
as good as expected, all things cohsid-
rretl, is fairly satisfactory. Shoe manu-
facturers continue busy, and many have
orders ahead.
At Victoria, Vancouver and other
Pacific coast cities the spring trade is
fairly good and orders are coming for-
ward in fair-sized volume.
In Winnipeg there has been fairly gorse
buying this wed: by the retailers. The
travellers are meeting with a satisfac-
tory demand. through the Rest. Prices
are firm. The outlook for a further
large influx of settlers is encouraging.
Wholesale trade at Hamilton has been
fairly active, but the shipment of goods
iaas been much hampered by the snow
blockade. Values are firm.
'.;'rade conditions at London are satis-
factory, and while the spring trade has
been a little slow in a good many de-
partments. i'ayments have not been
especially good, owing, doubtless, to- the
state of the country traffic.
Ottawa trade is in a sound, healthy
condition.The volume of spring and
stunner business so far has been satis-

Atter Travelling 2,12 6,000Miles.
l4ir. L. Tomlieson, one of the most
famous of ship's engineers, com-
pleted his last voyage as oilier en-
gineer or the Ounatrd liner Cam-

on Satutdey.
Mr. Tonilin on, tvho started his ca-
reer as an apprentice to the Can-
ard Company in 1852, hes boon de-
scribed a8 a, born engineer. He is
a map of great resource and initia-
tive, and has been equal to any con-
tingency.
One feat winch he performed at
sea, just eleven yearn ago, stands
Tat as remarkable. In the middle of
December Umbria was fighting her
way through a great gale, about
800 miles out from New Rork, when
her thrust shaft to which the pro-
peller Is attached, mapped. On land
no news cone, be obtained of the
vessel. and Christmas passed with-
out any tidings. Both in P:ngland
and A100310a the greatest concern
was felt, and the vessel was given
up as Post.
But just before New Year's D.ay
the Umbria very slowly and very
gingerly steamed into the Cunard
wharf at Liverpool. The old shaft
could not be replaced, and the chief
engineer had to piece ep the great
steel rod, on which practically the
whole force of the crngines is thrown
Far 80 hours the engineer and his
staff tolled, nnd at last with feel-
ings of intense anxiety the engine
tetstarted.
