Tuesda:y the offerings were 21 loads, including 243 sheep and lambs, 125 hogs and the remainder cattle. Busi- ness was better than was expected so soon after the holidays and prices were generally well maintained. One choice lot of milohers, however, sold at a low figura, brisging only &boat 4ho. The range was frdb 8i to 31. The demand was a local one, and the supply was just about equal for all requirements. MONTREAL LIVE STOCK MARKETS. There were about 500 head of butch- ers cattle and a dozen mutton critters offered at the East End Abattoir on Monday. Trade in cattle was better than is generally the case so soon after the holidays, and common stock sold rather higher than they have been do- ing lately, but prime beeves were a shade lower than they were a week ago. A lot of fine choice animals were sold by Mr Snell at 4e per lb., plus $1 per head, but they were decidely the best on the market. Pretty good stock sold at from 3ic to 4c per lb., and common dry cows at from 2ic to 31c do. Sever- al common looking bulls were sold at 2ic per pound. The few sheep on the market to -day were held at higher rates, considering the quality. Fat hogs are not plentiful and sell at about 4ic per lb. Dressed hogs are worth near 6e per lb. R. ADAMS.

Bishop Baltiviieg youngest daughter narrowly escaped drolrrung the other day while skating on a poiJ near Lon- don. She was rescued by means of a pole. The trial of Edward Handcook for the murder of his daughter Sophie, at Fairbank on July 17th last, will be heard at the Tor- onto assizes, begun on Wednesday before Mr Justice Street. An operation was performed at the city hall, Springfield, 0., on Thursday:, on the issue of which depended the fair name and honor of a woman. The pa- tient was Mrs Lilian Losey, of Jeffer- sonville, Fayette county, and the oper- ation was the removal of an ovarian cystic tumor. Mrs Losey is a widow about 21 years old. She lives with her mother at Jeffersonville. For some time she has been receiving the attentions of a young man, and it was reported that they were soon to wed. A few months ago it was said that Mrs Losey was in an interesting condition. In vain did the *man protest her innocence. She consulted Dr. W. F. McCormick, of South Solon. He informed her of the nature of the trouble and advised a surgical operation. The operation proved conclusively that the gossips were wrong in their cruel reineAcs. The petition against the return of Hon. Alex. Mackenzie as member for East York was dismissed by Justice Burton, and MacLennan at Markham on Tuesday. The petitioners had no evidence to offer and the judges declared the petition dis- missed with eosts. Justice Burton re- marked that he could not resist his feeling as a private citizen to express the great satisfaction he felt, and which he was sure must be participated in by the opponents of Mr MacKenzie generally, as well as by his supporters, at the result of this peti- tion. gle said: "I don't think his bitterest opponent -perhaps I ought not to use that word. for I feel sure he does not number a bitter opponent in the world -but I don't think his strongest opponent e,ould be heard to say that he would charge him ith_doingapproving it would be a deplorable and lamentable thing if now, in his declining years, after faithfully serving his country so long, he should be • called on to stand the expense and turmoil of another election through the misconduct of a foolish or, perhaps, over -zealous agent." Robert J. Fleming has been elected Mayor of Toronto, by a majority of 345. The contest was one of the most remarkable in the municipal history of Toronto. Sel- dom has so much interest been taken in an election, and never before have every party and section of the communities been so divided. The vote polled was the heaviest ever cast in a municipal contest in the city. The numbers polled for each candidate are: -Fleming, 8,540; Osier, 8,204; Mc- Millan, 4,642; Beatty, 598, Fleming is the first Reformer who has been mayor since Mr Howland's time, though the election was not ran on party lines. A special feature of the election was the vote on the Sunday street car question. A very 'heavy vote was polled -over 20,000 -the result be- ing that the proposal to introduce street cars into Toronto on Sunday was defeated by a majority of over 4,000. The vote on free school books was a iratture of the con- test and free text books were decided on by a majority of about 3,000. Lady candidates appeared in every ward for Public School Board and in three wards were successful. Honorary Work in Connection with Bible Society Collecting. This is the season of the year when Bible and other Societies convene, and a general review of the current work of the past year is indulged in. Every phase of colporteur work is taken up in detail, and prayers are offered up for all officials who are called upon to actively engage in the work of the dis- einination of gospel literature, with some few exceptions, and it is a fact deplorable, that in a majority of cases, the very ones who need the greater share of sympathy and encouragement in the work, are the very ones who are extremely ignored, and their ardu- ous work becomes belittled and depre- ciated by persons who occupy chief seats (metaphorically speaking) and whose work in connection with gospel droinulgation amounts only to a couple of extempoi e prayers, and an occasion- al groan accompaniment. We refer particularly to the collectors, who are deputed to visit their several wards in our local towns and cities, whose duty it is to solicit contributions from all classes, and divers individuals who care no more for Bible distribution than a "Hobo" cares for bread and but- ter at a church tea party, and these same specimens of degraded humanity have the audacity to express, by looks if not by words, the charge that the solicitors are engaged in a work of charitable pilfering, and that in order to successfully rid themselves of such unwelcome visitors, a series of falsifi- cations must of necessity be indulged in by them. The experience of a collector who has spent not an inconsiderate amount of time in this work might be cited, if oc- casion demanded it, but under present circumstances a limited account of ex- perience will serve. Among the com- fortably rich and deservingpoor, no i opposition of any account s encoun- tered, but among the mediocrity insult is rife, and ill concealed hateur oft - times crops up, when the worthy col- lector submits the collection list for scrutiny. Among the latter class ex- cuses unlimited prevail, and hoping to hide their consummate meanness be- hind an intrenchrnent of excuses, they plunge in headlong, and/ so absorbed do they become in their irnmiomptu refuge, that their defence 1°01114- up in all its horrible inconsistency. We sincerely hope, for: the comfort of all collectors of the Bble Society, tr that for once in their I' es the un- worthy cla,ss of people reft erl to will, if not prepared to contri but o financial- ly, still kindly bear in mind that those engaged in this work are, not beggars, neither wil lthey stoop to lareeny, and also they prize highly the friendship of the individual who will not ' toop to went of a so • ours, in he pay - falsification, in order to w. their bel IPLE, CATT TIONs EACH PLUG OF THE r• vire 4 es our suits" on the public wi fenewed vigor this year, because it is open, to everyone t� make a ROPOSAL We make ours knowing that it will not be JECTED MYRTLE Navy • IN BRONZE LETTERS.
