The town has just concluded arrange.
merits with the Cramps, of Philadelphia, by
whioh they agree to establish at this' point
blest furnaces for the production of iron and
steel. The capacity of the plant will be 200
tons per day, and will be taken direct from
the furnaces and manufactured into sheets,
ingots and structural iron. They agree, for
certain co cessions given them by the town,
to establis a plant costing, not less than one

not less t an 600 men:eoetinuously for 30
years, T e gentlemen' composing the com-
pany hav been going over the ground in

Afse the retell's has sounded, -
Our country has answered the call,

Determined to oonquor or fall.

Has buckled his sword to hie belt
• And, girded with glittering armor
Is niountiog his steed for the Veldt.

The bloom of our manhood to thee,
To fight for the old flag of freedonel
Our fatherland ever the sea. '
And many the eyes that are weary
• With weeping, the hearts that • e eold,
For war is the horror of natione,
• The curse by the Prophets foretold.
Oh Canada, grand are thy moun eine,
And lovely thy blue inland lakes
Thy broad, smiling acres of plenty,
Thy woods where the whip -poor will wakee,
And fragrant !the flowers that garl nd
'teThy valleys and enitrald hills,
Melodious the sound of the mimic
Which breaks from thy tippling r Ile.
Deep, tco, in thy rough, rugged bo am,
Traced there in the ages untold
By nature, who cares for her child en,
Are veins of rich petal and gold.
Thy future no sages can picture,
Its dawning is still in the East,
When glorioue thy sun shines in splendor
Of Kingdoms thou wilt not be loped.
But, greater than these are the spir
Brave sons of illustrious Mree
Who dread pot the carnage of bait e
Or shrinkprom its baptiems1 firer.
Inspired bylidevotion and duty.
Content to do great things or small,
To labor and wait in the trenches
Or rush where the hellish shots fall.
These, these are the bends that shall crown thee
With all th et is brightest and best ;
Their glory, thy glory, their honor
To bend to thy tovereign's behest.
Then, here's to our snow covered country
The land of the gallant and free I
And, here's to our noble contingente I

Life of Dwight L. Moody.
(From the Guelph Daily Herald, Febru-
ary 13th.
When Dwight L. Moody died, one of the
greatest preachers of this or any ether can-
tury passed away. No evangelist ever
gained greater fame as a preacher and a
man than Mr. 1 Moody. His simplicity of
language, his strong individuality, his
im-
plioit faith` and his belief in the message he
lave to den, stamped him as the greatest
of all evangelists, a great thinker and a
great reformer. •
Again and again Mr. Moody requested,
before he died, that his son might be his
biographer, and to assist him, Mr. Moody
left him all his papers, his letters, his ser-
mons and the family photographs. Ls
son, W. It. Moody, is aow cerrying oui his
father's wish, and is writing bis life. The
work written by Mr. Moody', eon has •the
endorsement of Ira D. Sankey and sf i all
the Moody family, and the dieials of ;the
Northfield Seminary. Several ether lives
of Mr. Mo•dy are beim published, all of
which are tondenmed by the family and the
friends of Mr. Moody; and the fact of
such publication is painful to the family.
The autherized book, which the son is
writing, will be magnifimatly illustrated
by a great number of fine half -tone eigrav-
inip of Mr. Moody and of his-fausily, the
Northfield Seminary and the life and werk
of Mr. Moody, and will be much larger and
better made and illustrated than the un-
authorized copies.
It is estimated that over one million
copies of the authorized book will be meld
within the next three months. All the
profit arising from the sale of these books
it to be devoted by the authors to the main-
tenance of the institute at Northfield,
'founded by Dwight L. Moody.
The work is published by the World
Publishing Company, of Guelph, Ontario.

News Notes.
A bacteriological examination of rats
caught at Port Melbourne wharf has estab-
lished the fact that the vermin are infected
with the plague.
The returns filed at the probate office,
London, show that the estate of R. D.
Blackmore, the author, who died recently,
is valued at £16,963. The value of the
estate of Canon T. Weill, the hymn writer,
'is placed at £85,289.
• The will of the late Mr. Thomas Henry
Ismay, founder of the White Star Line
Steamship Company, who died in Liverpool
last November,has been proved, showin
a personal estate of £1,07.881. Numereue
legacies, in all about £25,000, are left to
charities, and the remainder of the estate to
members of the family.
According to the newly -appointed sur-
veyor of Westminster Abbey, that ancient
edifice is fast crumbling to pieces, owing to
the action of the fumes of the manufactories
on the opposite side of the river on the
weather -worn stones. This contention is
illustrated by photographs of white patches
on the interior and on the exterior parts of
the abbey, indicating crumbling.
The Rev. Charles M. Sheldon, who took
editorial and business control of the Daily
Capital, Topeka, spent half an hour in the of-
fice of the, paper on Saturday forenoon and
then went home to finish his Sunday sermon.
He persistently declined to be interviewed,
• but extended an invitation to the reporters
to attend his morning service which they
promised'to do. A -great deal of gossip is
indulged in regarding Mr. Sheldon's policy,
but up to; this time nothing is '1i'lcnetwa.
Many of his close friends say he will -follow
the idea outlined in his famous novel, "In
Is steps." The circulation of the Capitel
for the week is now very close to a quarter
of a million, exclusive of news agency or-
ders, and subscriptions are still coming in
at an increasing rate.
In two different letters received in San
Antonio, Texas, from mentlsera of the 33rd
infantry who pressed Aguinaldo so
closely in the mountains of Luzon, comes
the story that a member of the regiment
who fell behind in the hills, was killed and
partly eaten by the natives. Private Ma -
fattier writes one leter and Sergeant Bate-
man another, telling of this.
. The reMains of Abraham Lincoln were
transferred from the Crypt gof the national
Lincoln monument to a temporary vault
just north of the monument, and on the
brow of the hill overlooking Oak Ridge

monument preparatory to its entire recon-
struction on a different plan, for which
$100,000 was appropriated' by the last
Legislature.

Replying tO Mr. Patrick O'Brien, Nation-
aliet, who asked in the House of Commons,
London, whether the Government would
give a shilling to each Irish soldier on St,
Patrick's day to enable him to celebrate the
occasion by "drowning the shamrock."
Mr. Joseph Powell Willis, financial secre-
tary for the War Office, said he thought the
army funds could hardly be devoted to
that purpose. It is suggested that all -the
Irish soldiers whether in Irish regimnts
or not, be allowed to wear the Shamrock
on St. Patrick's day, and that the same
privilege be extended to the navy.

Plans for two pa.ssenger steamers costing
$100,000 each, have been preeented to the
American Ship -building Company for bids.
Wilbur E. Houpt and John Gordon, of
Buffalo, who have charge of dm organiza-
tion of the Great Lakes Navigation Com-
pany, which will own the ships, presented
such satisfactory assurances as to financial
backing that the ship -building company at
once set its office to work figuring on the
preliminary estimates. The two steamers
will form a line between Chicago and Buf.
fele. They will stop at M ilwaukee Macinac
Islands, Detroit and Cleveland, making two
eailings a week from all points. They will
have a guaranteed speed oi 18 miles an hour.
The steamships will be 470 feet long, 450
feet keel, 50 feet beam and 20 feet moulded
depth. They will have triple expansion
engines of 4,000 horse -power.
In treating the industrial and flnahoial
questions anent the South African war and
the tax measures, Mr. Isaac N. Ford, in his
London cable letter to the New York Tri-
bune, says : "Ib has been easy for the
crowds in the streets to display a holiday
temper in war time, for, apart from the
dangers and privations of their relations
and friends in the ranks in South Africa,
the masses have not telt the burdens of the
campaign. The absence of a great body of
reservista, militiamen and volunteers has
created a vacum in the working world which
is filled by substituted. Work is plentiful
and wageseare rising. The masses will be
lightly taxed for the war'since the brewers
will pay the increase duty on beer, and two
pence on tea and extra imposts on tobacco
and spirits are the only direct charges upon
the working people. Income taxpayers
will be the chief sufferers from the cost of
tbe war."

THE SHORE OF ETERNITY.
Alone, to land upon that shore.
With no one eight that we have seen before!
Things of a different hue,
, And the sounds all new,
And fragrances so sweet the soul may faint.
Alone! Ob, that first hour of being saint!
Alone? No. Gad hath been there long before,
Eternally bath waited on that shore
Por us who were to come
To our eternal home,
And he bath taught his angels to prepare
In what way we are to be welcomed there.
Alone? The God we trust is on that shore,
The faithful One whom we have trusted more
In trials and in woes
Than we have trusted those
On whom we leaned most in our earthly strife—
Oh, we shall trust him more in that new Wei
So not alone we land upon that shore;
'Twill be as though we had been there before;
We shall meet more we know
Than we can meet below
And find our rest like some returning dove
And be at home at once with our eternal Lovel
—F. W. Faber.
HIS FIRST BATTLE.
The Feelings of an Officer WhenBs
First Faced Bullets'.
What are the feelings a an officer
when for the first time be leads his men
into battle? This is a qtlestion which the
soldier himself alone can answer, and
we suspect that a good many would be
unwilling to go too closely into the sub-
ject. The hum of a rifle bullet, the
shriek of a shell, the rush of a cannon
shot, must be. mad alwags has been ex-
tremely trying to the inexperienced war-
rior. A certain officer, who prefers on
this occasion to be nameless, hes frankly
described his first experience in battle. ,
"We were advancing to the scene of
operations," he says. On mitering a
strip of wood it occurred to me that my
men, being raw recruits, would not fight
well on horseback, and so I ordered them
to dismount. This,';of course, stonped
the whole body of the army behind the
regiment. While the men were leisurely
tying their horses an officer came up at a
furious gait , and asked peremptorily,.
'What have you stopped here for and
blocked up the whole road?' 1 saw the
point in a moment and bade my men
move out of the wood. In the meantime
my scabbard got itself hopelessly entan-
gled in a bush, and 'the more I tried to
get it loose the more it stuck the faster.'
So I told my men to form at the edge of
the wood and wait for me. Then I cut
the straps and left my broken scabbard
In the bush, while, with naked blade
flashing in my hand, 1 rushed to the
front. Not a man could I find. They
were anxious to see the fun and had run
over the brow of the hill and scattered
along the whole length of the line. After
infinite difficulty, many words and more
temper, I got them together again.
"We were barely inposition when 1
heard a distant catmon and at the same
instant saw the ba.11 high in the air. As
near as I could calculate, it was going
to strike exactly where 1 stood, and I dis-
mounted with remarkable agility, only
to see the missile of war masa 60 feet
overhead. I felt rather foolish as 1 look-
ed at my men, but a good deal relieved
when I saw that they, too, had all squat-
ted on the ground and none of them was
looking at me. 1 quickly, Mounted again
and commanded them to 'stland up.' We
were ordered to charge On after, and
the enemy easily gave v4y before us,
for which I was most de mit!), thankful.
We passed some dead ard 'wounded, the
first sad results of real vir that I had
ever seen. At night blackcloods over-
spread the sky, the rain fell in torrents
Not even a campfire could be kept te
light up the impenetreble gloom. X
stretched myself upon the soaked ground
The- pale, rigid faces t at I had seen
turned up to the evening sun appeared
before me as I tried in vaini to shield myi
own from the driving rain, and as the
big foot of a comrade, bl ndering around
in the darkness, splashe1 my eyes full,
of mud I closed them 1r4 thy first sleeel
upon a battlefield."—Cleu

"The object that struck me as being
the moot remarkable was a globe made
for the shah and on which he probably
studied geography. It is the most re-
mgrkable one in existence. 1

"As near as I could judge It was threei
feet in diameter, correctly made, the
seas, continents and every part cif it com-
posed of gems. My recollection does not
serve ine exactly, but I remember that
Persia was made of turquoises, that be-
ing thnational gem, so to speak.
"Afr ca was in rubies, England And
Franc4 in diamonds, and se on, every
portion being covered by beautiful gems
and the seas by emeralds. It contained
75 pounds of gold, and there were 5,1,86a
gems in all. I was told that it was wort
£047,111 and was a tnere bagatelle,' fro
all I c .uld understand, and was made t
utilize some of the vast store of gem
owned by the shah."—Newcastle Chroa

Heart Humbug
It is fashionable to -day to have a
new heart scare every 24 hours.
The commonest symptoms of dys.
pepsla or nerve trouble, such as pal.
pitation, victak spells, Ion of appe4
tite, and poor circulation, are magni-
fied and distorted into serious signs
of heart trouble, with the object of
frightening the public into taking
this or that heart remedy. If a
hundredth part of the heart trouble
we hear about were real, the 'ceme-
teries would be filled in a month. A
wrong construction is put upon com-
mon ailments in order to humbug
the people into the belief that heart
disease is prevalent, whereas re&
heart trouble, which is so sadly and
suddenly fatal when it does occur, is
a rare disease. Lopsided arguments
cannot con vince an intelligent pecplc.
Iron is the vital element of the blood.
Too little iron means weakness, lack
of spirit, pallid cheeks, shortness oi
breath, sleeplessness, nervousness,
loss of vital force, ending in general
breakdown. The iron in Dr, Wal.d's
Blood and Nerve Pills is in the solu-
ble form you need, combinaticn
with other curative agents in such a
manner that disease can't resist their
action. You feel yourself gating.
Well when you take Dr. Ward's
Blood and Nerve Pills.
