The inspectors.; seized a pile of contraband salt, and, while removing it to their boats, were attacked by the villagers and over, powered. Nearly all were stunned by blows, hut the villagers, learning that they bad attacked government officers, carried the injured men to the goat, set fire to it and burned the whole to hide their cringe. The chief criminal was sentenced to des capitation, but committed suicide before the ciay arrived, and, accor- ding to law, his body was ex hum.,d and the head struck off and exhibit- ed as a warning to the public. Four others were strangled and four exiled, after being heavily fined. U URRENT TOPICS. VAN HORNE AND A DETROIT RE- PORTER. Mr. Van Horne had time to talk of Canada and the United States, and more particularly as to how traffic would he effected by the Me. Kinley acts stopping trade between the countries.. I asked him if this would hurt the Canadiau roads and cut them off from the traffic they enjoyed. "Not at all," said he. "it's just what the Canadian roads want. It will give us a long haul instead of a short one." And to explain hie viow he pointed to the map. "You see, Canada is a little fringe of people alork the Northern bor. der of the United States. Before. the McKinley Bill went into effect the goods which Canada sent into the United States were sent direct to the border and across the line. It gave us a -very short haul for' these goods. But now tine McKinley bill shuts these goods out from crossing the herder, and they must find an outlet at the ocean for their foreign markets. The result is, we will haul these goods from Ontario clear to Halifax and Quebec, instead of to the nearest American border point. It's the hest thing that could have happened to the rail- roads." Arida from its effect on railways, Mr. Van Horne was asked as to its general effect on Canada. It was Isis idea that Canada could get along all right withont the American markets, in fact was better off without them. Can- ada's best market was at home,sup‘ plying the wants of her own people, and the surplus could readily be ex- ported to remote foreign. countries. • Eggs, cheese, butter, etc., which had all been shut out of the United States, could easily be marketed in England. By thus looking to its own interests, Canada could get along without depending on the Unit ed States. i,�► i' KFT 111 �a HORSES. SE .

Axiltating effects its forming an estimate of all that goes to make up value in horseflesh. Judiciot;s blanketing has a greet. influence in improving a horse's coat. Exhibitors of !lorries at our fall shows experience a great deal of trouble its getting their animals'• coats in the condition they would like. In our use of blankets• in the early autufun we should be .guided by the temperature; not only should they be used at nights. but •on cool days their use should Hot be neglect- ed. Care, however, has to be taken to avoid ever keeping auinhals 80 warm r)5 to sweat. Sweating un- der the blanket not only makes the horse uncomfortable, but it deatroya the condition ut the coat. The cautious use of blankets in the early autumn, and of course con- tinued, has considerable effect in checking the undue heaviuees of the coat, and that tendency to profuse s}veating so noticable in October, and,, in fact,.for the remainder of tlte- winter, if the precaution of blanket - tug is not taken early in the season. Some horses that are inclined to have very heavy coats will not have the growth of t•he coat sufficiently checked even by careful blanketing, and such animals, if they have to perform much fast work, are greatly benefitted by clipping about the first of November, or later if convenient, Unfortunately many people do not allow their horses to derive full benefit of clipping, on account of not using - a sufficiently liberal amount of covering ; a clipped horse should have at least two warm blankets on hint, and more are sometimes of benefit, particulai ly during cold spell.. A great tniatake is frequently made in applying a horse's covering while Ise is wet with sweat or from any other cause. The beet plass to pursue is to dry the animal with cloths, taking care to avoid cold drafts. If it is convenient to rub him, a blanket may be anplie4 to prevent chilling while the esvapor, stion of the skin is taking place, but this should be removed as soon as it is thoroughly danhpened with steam, and another dry one put on. Before putting on the first blanket the skin should be robbed dry, if possible. - Exchange. MANKIND'S THIRD EYE. "There is a kindiof lizard found in Virginia and Maryland that bas three eyes -one of them on the top of its head," said a man of science the other day to the representative of the Star. " It is generally ,sup, posed that they are very rare, but, on the contrary, they are quite com- mon.. You may find plenty of them if you take the trouble to look. They are green and about three inches long." ' "Aro there any other animals in the world that haye three eyes?" ":Lots. For example, you your, self have a third eye, though it has become rudimentary through die, use. "Where is it?" "Just in the middle of your head, as nearly as its location can be de- scribed offhand. Anatomists know it as the pineal gland, but it is ac- tually an eye that has become rudi- mentary, Placa.tho tip of your fin- ger just above the bridge of your nose and on the level with your eyes. Directly Gebind that point about five inches, at the base of the brain, is this gland I speak of, which' the ancients used to imagine was the center of consciousness and the seat of the soul. Its structure has lost all resemblance to that of an eye, but you can' find it retaining more of its original development in some turtles and other reptiles. With them this gland hos still, though in the middle of the head, an actual e, e socket, an optic nerve connecting with the visual tract of the brain, and even the pigmentary inner coat, the object of which in all eyes is to, absorb light. There is no retina, but it is an eye for all that. In the ease of the lizard I mentioned this pineal eye actually appeare at (lie top of the head and is useful for seeing with. -Many of our readers ,will re. gret to learn of the serious illness of Mrs. ,Havill, of Concession street, Clalt, Mrs. Havill was apparenitly in her usual health up to Saturday afternoon when she web `stricken with paralysis, and very little hope is entertained of her recovery. • S
