DISTINGMBUSID A CANS
AT a :: URT
Of late year haltita cus-
tom that is glot�lg he weig&t
of artradition Tor th resident of
the Fnited tats to select 'his chief
ambassadors from emoeg ,distinguish-
ed men of hie oWtt • party who have
attained eminence in, literature,
journalism or eriticiem, Col. George
Harvey, the appointee, to the Court
of St. James is oneetaf "a long line of
ambassadors, who 'have first became
noted through the pen, It .ia true chat
Mr. Davis his inrmedi to 'predecessor
was not a writer but lawyer. Yet,
Like Mr. Choate,' he it d that charm
and distinction which are peculiarly
associated with the p lit of litera-
ture. Before Mr. Da hs, there was
Mr. Page, bead of the great publish-
ing firm, and eminent s an editor if
not as a producer of literature. Mr.
Page had a task of emendous dif-
ficulty. He represented the United
States in England in all the trying
months that intervendil between the
beginning of the war until the United
States entered the struggle. the
had to be "neutral even in thoug)it"
according to the directions of Presi-
dent Wilson, and though we dopbt
that he carried neutrality to this ex-
tent --a feat, we suppose, beyond the
mental powers of any human being
of sound mind --he had to guard him-
self .most carefully.
With so much tact and courtesy
did he perform his offices that when
he asked to be retired on the ground
of failing health, he had on as
high a place in the esteem of the
British nation as any of his illus-
trious predecessors. "One of God's
own," is the expr cion lased by
Margot Asquith to d scribe him, Mr.
Page declared at t e time of 'hi0
retirement that he leant to devote
the remaining years of his life to
the strengthening of, the bonds that
unite the Anglo-Saxon race. Unfor-
tunately he lived bait a short time.
Before Mr. Page, Whitelaw Reid,
owner and former editor of the New
York Tribune, was the ambassador
to Great Britain.Ie was extremely
popular, and thoug-h no important
diplomatic questions arose in his
term of office, tie showed himself
not only a loyal American, but a
staunch friend of Great Britain.
Perhaps the ideal ambassador was
Mr, Joseph Choate, one of the. great-
est lawyers in the United States, and
recognized unofficially in his declin-
ing years as the "first citizen of
New York." Ile was famous as a
wit and as a scholar, a man of the
highest culture,, and the broadest
tolerance. A, an after dinner speak -
he had ne superior and few
equals. Su p,pular was he in Eng-
lund that the Vnivets ities of Oxford
Cambridge, Glasgow, Edinburgh and
St. 'Andrew's honored him with de-
grees and he was also made a Bench-
er of the Middle Tdmple. Ile is the
wily American ever admitted to this
privilege. When the war broke out,
Mr. Choate was far advanced in years
hut there was no stouter advocate
of the Allies' cause, no more inde-
fatlgible worker to rouse the Ameri-
can nation to a sense of its duties.
Ms death probably was hastened by
his war activities. John Hay was an•
other ambassador ;of the Choate
type., He served too short a time
for he returned to the United States
to become Secretary of State to Pre-
ident McKinley.
James Russell Lowell was one of
he best ambassadors the United
States ever sent abroad. He was dis-
inguished as a poet, a humorist and
speaker on public occasions. He
was one of the fitat American am-
assadors to be deinounced at home
ecause of his allege "sickening
ycophancy" to the English. This un.
ounded charge w,as made because
f his moderate action 0 a case when
en Americanized Irishmen were ar-
osted under the so..called "Coercion
tet," and Lowell, instead of making
demand that they should immed-
ately be set at liberty,, proceeded to
egotiate for their release on the
nes of international law. One liter-
ry celebrity who did not have a
'holly pleasant experience in Eng -
and was Janes Lathrop Motley, the
istorian. His laersonal friend,
harles Sumner, who had secured
to appointment for him, made a
iolent speech on the subject of the
epredations of the "AMlabama," and
otley offered an indiscreet a n d
pproving comment upon it. Shortly
fterward he returned to the United
tates, presumabl, at the request.
f the British Go.vvlernment.
The first American ambassador
as Thomas Pinckney, whose ap-
ointmeat followed the conclusion
f the War of Ihdependence. John
dams also served on special diplo-
atic missions at the same time that
inckney was am_'bassador. Two oth-
• members of the distinguished
dans family served their country at
e Court of St., James. One was
hn Quincy Adapts, who became
resident, and the' other was his son,
iarles Francis ,dams. The latter
Id office at the, time of the Civil
ar. His position 'was extremely dif-
ult, for those with whore he was
liged to associaiie were either lack -
g in sympathy _ for the North or
olent partizans bf the South. Mr.
dams showed himself the possessor
the tact and jpatience which the
uation demanded, and check mat -
the efforts of, those who desired
at Britain should intervene on the
e of the South.

A BARBER'S SON WHO NOW
OWNS A 'TOWN.
'Phirty-eight years ago, with but
$1.225 in his pocket, a young roan left
Huddersfield, England, to seek 'his
fortune. To -day he has completed a
deal, involving $6,250,000, which
make hire the owner of practically
the whole of his native town.
Thus can be summarized the career
of Mr. S. W. Copley, one of the moat
remarkable self-made men of our
time. As a lad he lived in Berry
Bow, just outside Huddersfield, with
his father, who was a barber. When
the time carne for him to leave school,
young Copley adopted the trade of
tailor and made his way into Wales.
"In Wales," he 'says, "I saved a
little money out ur building, hair-
dressing, and the sale of musical in-
struments. Then, after the lapse of
four years or so, I emigrated to Mel-
bourne."
Samuel Copley's experiences in
Australia make romantic reading.
When he tan ted he had a few dollars
but after spending several days in the
neighborhood of the Stock Exchange
he found himself in low water again,
so he took off his coat and went to
work as a barber. In a year he had
saved sufficient money to enable him
to start on his own account as a land
agent.
'then, following the boom in house
property 0 Victoria, Samuel Copley
lost all his savings except $110, more
than a half of which went in buying
a ticket for Western Australia.
"I went back to the oldante of
barbering," he says, "and Was soon
in possession of $500, with which I
made a fresh start. I worked four-
teen hours a day."
Soon after this he went into an
auction room where land was being
offered for sale. He bought some of
it and, after selling at a profit, took
up land jobbing once more. But al-
though he declared that since that
day he has never had to go back to
tailoring or barbering, he has often
'had to work longer hours than he
did at either of those callings.
One day he bought 748 acres of land
near Perth at $50 an acre. He was
called a fool by many people for mak-
ing the purchase, but his foresight
was justified when, on a tramway
companv being fortped, the value of
the land rose to $4,000 an acre. Since
then there have. been more houses
built in tate suburb founded by Samuel
Copley than in any other part of the
town.
About this time he increased his
responsibilities by joining his brother.

The ,,stogy: of :how Samuel Copley
laid the foundations o8 the Western
Australia Insurance Company is al-
so worth telling. To the manager of
the company in which 'he had insured
some vehicles, he said: "I will never
insure again." This was because he
was not satisfied with the .tree ant
he had received at the co Pny's
hands. 'A moment's reflection and
then he added: "I will start an in-
surance company of any own, so that
people can have fair play."
When he started- his insurance
company in London his takings for
the first month consisted of a solitary
half -sovereign (about $2.50), which
now adorns his watch -chain. The
man who handed him the money, on
hearing that it represented Mr. Cop-
ley's first preniiurn, remarked: "Well,
I hope it will bring you many morel"
"And," says Mr.. Copley, "it has. We
have done business since to the value
of something like $ million and a
quarter pounds."
With regard to saving, he has al-
ways lived up to one rule. "When
I was working," he. says, ''whatever
my wages were, I never spent more
than a half.. When I was earning $15
a week I saved $6 out of it, and so
on."

HURON NOTES
-Monday of this week S. S. Cole,
of Ethel, who is removing to Strat-
ford, disposed of his residence and
six acres to William Davidson, 12th
concession, Grey township, for the
sum of $2,000. The purchaser will
get early possession.
-In the passing of Jessie Lehman
at the home of her daughter, Mrs.
H. C. Zapfe, Blake, another of the
family of Hay township's pioneers
leaves us. Deceased had been ailing
a number of years, of which time
she was mostly bedfast, and the end
came only to relieve her of the suf-
ferings of this world. She was of a
loving, honest and pleasant disposi-
tion, thereby making bosom friends
with all whom she carne in contact.
Some sixty years ago she and her
•hus'band, the late Abraham Lehman,
settled and cleared a .home on the
Bronson Line, where they lived for
forty-seven years, then moved to
Zurich where deceased resided until
three years ago when she made her
home with her•daughter, Mrs. H. C.
Zapfe, where she went peacefully to
sleep on Monday, April llth, at the
age of 83 years. Deceased was pre-
deceased by ,her husband by eight
years, and three of •her family have
also passed away. There remains to
mourn her loss, one son, Mr. William
Lehmann, of Caledonia, Mich.; three
daughters, Mrs. H. C. Zapfe, of Blake;
Mrs. C. Bossenberry, of Fair Grove,
Alta.; and Mrs. Rousseau, of Far -
grove, Mich.
-The annual vestry meeting of the
Trivia Memorial chtfrch, Exeter, was

had performed during the year. He
had attended five funerals, perform-
ed two baptisms, eight marriages,
sixteen private celebrations of Holy
Communion, pairs 606 visits, prepar-
ed and presented five candidates for
confirmation. The financial report
was read by the secretary, Mr. E. J.
Wethey, disclosing one of the best
reports in the history of the church.
Reports of the church auxiliaries
were also read, showing all to be in
a healthy condition, particularly the
