On Tuesday last 'the Senate applied
the ;pruning knife to the Prohibition
•
Bill lrecently passed (1sy• the House
striking. out three clauses designed
to aid prosecutions for violations of
the act. The clauses struck out were
SS follows: Clause. '4 which provided
that in et -prosecution the "accused
person shall be I deemed to • have
known or inten:decl that such intox-1
kitting liquco would thereafter be
dealt with In 'violation of the laws of
• the province into white such intoxie

ate holding that .a wean should net
be regarded as guilty tintil so eroven.
The isecend clause :struck out was the
we providing that a prosecution could
be taken inithe place, fromt which the
liquor was shipped 'or the place to
whieh liquor Is shipped and the tnIre
clatiee removed was the one -authoriz-
ing the Minleter. of -.Justice .to have
proeecutiens instituted. Other changes
are istO1 under consideration and it
s quite. possible that by the tirr,e
the 'senators .get 'thro-ugh with the
treasure it .wihl be quite a harmless
little affair which the Govermx:ent
wanted it 1,to *be in the 'firsteolace
but public opinion rather forced their
hand in the gratter. The Senators of
course being irresponsible, will take
all the blame, but we wonder if we
will hear as =itch about the arbitrary
bearing of the Liberal majority In
the isenate lo this case as we have
from the Government on some others..

Montreal, May Oth..-Th re were no
new developments in ths cOndition of
the naarkeb for cattie to-daye prices
generally being fully maintained ow-
ing to the fact that there *as practi-
cally DO increase in the Supply, but
the quality of the stock Was better
than it has been of late, for which
there was a good demand fi om packers
and butchers, as most of them were
short of beef, and in conspuence an
active trade was done, an the pos-
pects are that there will be no mater-
ial change in prices until grass-fed
cattle commence to corce forward
freely, as drovers state that the bulk
of the stall -fed stock thro ghout the
country is now pretty well exhausted.
The feature of the hog situation was
the weaker feeling which developed
in the market, and prices as compared
with a week ago show a decline of 25
30c per cwt. \The trade w s fairly ac-
tive, with sales f selected lots at $12
to $12.2e, sows •t $8 tO 8.20, and
stags at V to 56 20 per cwt., weighed
off cars. Owin to the co nulled
• supply of c Ives coming forward
for which there is a good demand for
both local cons inption and for ship-
ment to 'United States points, an ac-
tive trade was • one, and t e market
was stedy, wits sales of choice stock
at stt° Sc. and he lower grades at 5

ANCIENT ANESTHETICS.
NepettIthe and Other Agents Were Used
by Oal Trine Surgeons.
Thohe who Imagine that surgical
knowledge began with later 'genera-

read an article published by Dr. 3: de
Fenton in the South Andean. journal
of Science. •
Various anesthetizing media and
methods` were well known both in an
tiquity and during We middle ages!.
Homer mentions the anesthetic effecte
ot nepenthe; Herodotus states ttat the

of hemp to make them insensible dur-
