EDWARD BLAKE IN IRELAND: Lord Randolph Churchill'sr'sference to Hon. Edward Blake at Br.idford on May 26, whichhes been so much dis- cussed, was as follows: 'rTba only member of Parliament in the Irish party who is really hearty is a Canadian, a Canadian gentleman of the name of Blake --(some cheers) -and he 'seems to be acquainted with some of you (Laughter and some cheers.) I know nothing against Mr. Blake, who makes very hearty speeches on home rule, ex. cept that hb long followed political life in Canada, and lie was a perfect failure in that, political lite. ("Nowt o' that sort.") It is true. He quarrelled with every political party in the colony - (cheers) -and finding no scope for his energy and his heartiness in Canada, he came over to Ireland and threw him- self on the Irish party, which, I hold, is the last refuge of a destitute politi- cian. Mr. Blake knows no more of Ireland, and has lived no longer in Ire- land than Prof. Bryce knows of Ireland or has lived in Ireland.' CANADA PROSPEROUS S According to Saturday's Canada Gazette the financial returns for the month of May show the revenue of the Dominion to have been $3,277,174, which added to the receipts of the pre - vious ten months, makes a total revenue for the eleven mouths of this Iiecal seat of $34,232,800 -au increase of $1,138 520 compared with the corresponding period of the previous fiscal year. The expenditure' for the mouth of April ou account of consolidated fund was $3, -678,585; for the previous ten months, $25,010,929-a total for the eleven months of $28,689,514, compared with an expenditure during the cotrespond- irg period of last year of $29,272,969, or a decrease of $383,455. The total expenditure on capital account duting the eleven months was $3,162,645, so that even if this be added to the total g' neral expenditure it brings the total to $31,852,159, deducting whiciksunl from the revedue leave a surplus oI revenue over expenditure of all kinds aniountiug to $9,380,641. During the month of April the publics' debt was reduced by $462,937, being on the 30th of April $236,980,279. f - . CURRENT TOPICS. Sir Geo. Dibbs, of New South Wales, has telegraphed Hon.

Three lions are dead, and here lies one of my oevd kifid, stiffening.' " 'Yes,' replied Lioness, gloomily, `tile rouge elephant killed my cub while the little fellow was asleep in the woods. He then killed my husband and brother,and I killed him; but I do not think the ele- phant has gained much by fighting with us. I did not have much trouble in,kill- ing him. Should you meet any friends of his you may warn them to leave the lioness alone, or alio may be tempted to • make short work of thein.' "Elephant No. 2, though a patient per- son generall, was annoyed at this, and gave a sudden kick with one of his hind feet, which sent her sprawling a good distance off, and asked - "'How do you like that, Ma Lion?' "'What do you mean by that?' de- manded the enraged lioness. " 'Oh, because I hate to hear so much bragging.' 'Do you also wish to fight?' she asked. " 'We should never talk about doing an impossible thing, Ma Lion,' he an- swered. -I have traveled many years through these woods, and I have never fought yet. I find that when a person minds his own business he seldom comes to trouble, and when I meet one who is even stronger than myself I greet him pleasantly, and pass on, and I should ad- vise you to do the same, Ma Lion.' " 'You are saucy, Elephant. It would be well for you to think upon your stu- pid brother there, who lies so stark under your nose, before you trouble one who slew him, with your insolence.' " 'Well, words never yet made a plan- tation ; it is the handling of a hoe that makes fields. Sue here, Ma Lion, if I talked to you all day I could not make you wise. I will just turn my back to you. If you will bite me you will soon learn how weak you art'.' "The lioness, angered still more by the elephaut's contempt. sprang at his shouldrs and clung to hum, upon svhich he rushed at a stout tree, and pressing his shoulders against it crushed the breath out of her body and she ceased her struggles. When he relaxed itis pressure the body fell to the ground and he knelt upou it and kneaded it until every bone was broken. "While the elephant was meditatively standing over the body and thinking what misfortunes happen to boasters a Haan cause along carrying a spear, and seeing that the elephant was unaware of his presence ho though what great luck had happened to him. "Said he, 'Ah, what fine tusks he has. I shall be rich with theua and shall bur slaves and cattle, and with these I will get a wife and farm,' saying which he advanced silently, and when he was near enough darted his spear into a place be- hind the shoulder. "The elephant turned around quietly, and on beholding his enemy rushed after him, and overtaking him, mauled biln until in a few moments he was a mangled At a camp on the Upper Congo, in 1877, Chakanja drew near our fire, as story -telling was about to begin, and was immediately beset with eager de- mands for a tile from him. Like a singer who always professes to have a cold before indulging us, Chakanja need- ed more than a few entreaties; but final- ly, atter vowing tliat he never could re- member anything. he consented to gratify us with the legend of the ele- phant and the hon. "Well," he answered with a deep sigh, "if I must I must. You must know we Waganda are fond of three things -to havers nice wife, a pleasant farm, and to hear good news or a lively story. I have heard a great many stories in my life, but. unlike Kadu, my mind remembers then not. Men's heads are not the same any more than men's hearts are like. But I take it that a poor tale is better than none. It comes back to me like a dream, this tale of the elephant and the lion. I heard it first when on a visit to Gabunga's; but who can tell it like him? If you think the tale is not well told it is my fault; but then do not blare me too much or I shall think I ought to blame you to -morrow when it will be your turn to amuse the party. "Now open your ears ! A huge and sour tempered elephant .vent and wan- dered in the forest. His inside was stack for want of juicy roots and succulent reeds, but his head was as full of dark thoughts as a gad -fly is full of blood. As lie looked this way and that he ob- served a young lion asleep at the foot of a tree. He regarded it for a while ; then, as he was in a wicked mind, it cavae to him that lie might as well kill it, and he accor.!ingly rushed at it and impaled him with nis tusks. lie lifted it with his trunk, swung it about, and dashed it against the tree, and afterward kneeled on the body until it became as shapeless as a crushed banana pulp. He thein laughed and said, 'Ha, ha ! This is a proof that I am strong. I have killed as lion, and people trill say prowl things of uie, and will veneer at my strength.' "Presently a brother elephant carte up and greeted hill). " •See,' said the first elephant, 'what I have done. It was I that killed hint. I lifted him on high, and lo, he lies like a rotten banana. Do you not think I ar • very strong ? Come, he frank now, an give me some credit for what I have clone.' "Elephant No. 2 replied : 'It is true that you are strong. but that was only a young lion. There are others of his kind, and I have seen them, who would give you considerable trouble.' "'Ho ! ho !' laughed the first elephant. `Gee out, stupid. You may bring his whole tribe here and I will slow you what I can do. Aye ! and to your dans to boot.' "The lions roared aloud in their fury, and switched their tai violently. • 'Ho, ho!' laughed Ile elephant, gaily. 'This is grand. There is no doubt I shall run soon, they make me so skeery,' and he danced round the pool, and jeered at them, then drank a great quantity of water and blew it in a shower over them. "The lions stirred not, but kept stead- fastly gazing at him, planning how best to attack hits. "Perceiving that they were obstinate, he threw another stream of water over --the lions and then backed into the dotti- est part of the pool, until there was nothing seen of him but the tip of his trunk. When he rose again the lions were still watching him and had not moved. 'Ho, ho !' he trumpeted, 'still there 1 Wait a little; I am coming to you. He advanced toward the shore, but when he was close enough the lion sire sprang into the air and alighted on the ele- phant's back and furiously tore at the muscles of the neck and bit deep into the shoulder. The elephant retreated into the deepest part of the pool again and submerged himself and his enemy, until the lion was compelled to abandon his back and begin to swim ashore. No sooner had he felt himself relieved than he rose to the surface and hastily fol- lowed and seized Trim with his trunk. Despite his struggles he was pressed beneath the surface, dragged under his knees, and trodden into the mud, and in a short time the lion sire was dead. "The elephant laughed triumphantly, and cried 'HIe, hot em I not strong, Ma Lion ? Did you ever see the likes of me before? Dwo of you. Young lion and Pa Lion are now killed. Ma Lion, had you not better try now, just to see if you won't have better luck. Conte on, old woman, just once.' "The lioness fiercely answered, while she retreated from the pool, 'Hold on where you are. I am going to find my brother, and will be back shortly.' "The elephant trumpeted his scorn of her kind, and seizing the carcase of her lord flung it on shore after her, and de- clared his readiness to abide where he was that he might make a mash of the whole lion family. '•In a short time the lioness had found her brother, who was a mighty fellow, and full of fight. As they ad- vanced near the pool together, they con- sulted as to the best means of getting at him. Then the lioness sprang forward to the"edge of the pool. Tho elephant retreated a short distance. Tho lioness upon this crept along the pool, and pre- tended to lap the water. The elephant moved toward her. The lion waited his chance, and finally with a roar sprang upon his shoulders, and commenced tearing away at the very place which had been wounded by lion sire. "The elephant backed quickly into deep water and submerged himself, but the lion maintained his hold -and bit deeper. Tho elephant then sank down until there was nothing to be seen but the point of his trunk, upon which the lion, to avoid suffocation, relaxed his hold and 'Swam vigorously toward For Ove'rFitly Years. blas.

In no department of fashion has the evolution of dress produced more marks ed changes than in under -clothing, and the lingerie, of to -day is quite another thing from the conventional gerinents which for year's and years were invari- ably cut upon the same models. Now, we have as much variety and character in the fashions of underwear as there are in the gowns- themselves ; and if milady is attractive in her silken robes she is quite fascinating in deshabille. A lady who has just come over from Paris, simply raves over the display in the "maisons speciales de lingerie." "You never saw anything so perfectly irresistible as the. underclothes this sea- son," she declared. "At the dress- makers' 1 must confess I did not feel par- ticularly tempted, and I really saw hardly anything that I liked. But I. could bave spent a fortuneon the dainty, exquisite garments at Mme. R—'s. The new drawers are all made exceedingly fulll, with Empire belts of insertion to cover the lower part of the corsets, and are drawn in at the knee with rib- bons. The material is very soft nain- sook and lace (old Valenciennes is the prettiest, I think). The Empire belt is fitted over the hips and the rainsook gathered on, knickerbocker fashion, be- ing full enough at the knee to take the place of the petticoat. The old corset - cover is a thing of the past, with its long skirts, and in its stead we have a new 'cache corset,' made, tike a tight fitting bolero jacket, out of antique lace and in- sertion just meeting the pointed belt of the drawers, and thus rendering the waist as small as possible. In night- gowns there is an infinite variety, both the Empire and the 1880 styles being re- producee in muslin and lace; the former with the shoulder frills and gathers just below a band of insertion that marks the contour of the bust, and the latter with a fitted yoke over the shoulders and a deep bertha of gathered lace. Both styles have full puffed sleeves drawn iu with ribbon. "As for the silk petticoats no words can describe their exquisite prettiness. I brought home one of shimmering,opal- tinted silk, a milky white with gliuts of green and yellow, and faint, fiery sparks of red, trimmed with lace inser- tiou-soft, little frill of lace and bebe ribbon; and anther of the palest green, with white reflections, trimmed with ruffles edged with narrow lace of alter- nate green aud white. corpse. •'At this time a woman approached and seeing four lions and one elephant and her husband dead, site raised up her hands wonderingly and -cried, `How did all this happen?' The elephant hearing nor voice carne from behind atree,bleed- ing profusely and with a spear quivering jn his side. At the sight of him the Soman turned round to fly, but the ele- iphant cried out to her: •Nay, run not, woman. for 1 clued() you no harm. The happy days in the woods are ended for all the tribes. The memory of this scene will never he forgotten. Animals will be at constant war one with another. Lions will no more greet elephants, the buffa- loes will beaky, the rhinoceroses will live apart, and man, when he conies within the shadows, will think of nothing else than his terrors, and he will fancy an enemy in every shadow. I ani sorely wounded, for thy man stole up to my side and drove his spear into me, and soo I shad die.' "When she heard these words the wo- man hastened home, and all the -vil- lagers, old and young, hurried into the woods by the pool, where they found four lions, two elephants, and one of their own tribe lying still and lifeless. "The words of the elephant have turn- ed out to be true, for no man gnus now - a -days into the silent and deserted woods but he feels as though something were haunting Trim, and thinks of goblinry, and starts at every sound. Out of the shadows which shift with the sun forms seen crawling and phautoms appear to glide, and we are in a fever almost from the horrible illusions of fancy. We breathe quickly and fear to speak, for the smallest vibration in the silence would jar on our nerves. I speak the truth, for when I am in the woods near the night, there swims before my eyes a multitude of terrible things which I never see by the light of day. The flash of a fire -fly is a ghost, the chant of a frog becomes a frightful roar, the sudden piping of a bird signalizes murder, and I run. No, no. No woods for me when alone." / And Chakanja rose to lois feet and went to his own quarters, solemnly shirking his head. But wo all smiled at Chakanja, and thought how terribly frightened he would be if anyone sud- denly roso from behind a dark bush and cried "Boo?" to him. -Henry M. Stanley. Progress in British India. The report of the last census in Bengal, which has just been published, upsets several beliefs which hitherto have found general acceptance. For instance, it proves that the natives, instead of being averse to leaving their ancestral villages, are steadily moving from mote densely peopled areas to those where the popula- tion is less crowded; also that widow re- marriage is practically universal in Behar, Orissa, Chota-Naepore among the lower castes of Bengal proper, and is unknown only among a very few high castes everywhere and the more respectable Sudras of Bengal proper. The report also states that infant marriage does not exist to any appreciable extent except in northeast Behar and among the Bra- hims, Kayasths, and other purely Sudra castes of Western Bengal. It alsoshows the great progress of Mohammedanism, which has increased more than nine per cent. in Bengal proper in thelast decade, while the increase in Hinduism is less than five per cent. This fact is explain - ad to be duo to the desirebn the part of the lowest castes to adopt a religion which treats all men as equals. A Flint Fruin furls.

The affection was mutual, b'it Black- well, like so many other youegiters in the ranks, had acquired a thirst which he proceeded to eleke whenever the humor seized him. The lady of his heart finally told him alto would marry him, but upon one condition oyly. "What is that 1" ho asked. "That you shall not swallow a drop of intoxicatiug liquor for 10 years." "That is a long time between drinks," said he. "I know it is," sleds amid, "but-" "Will you wait that long 1" he in- quired. "She replied that she would, he re- sponded, "All right," and went out. They were faithful during the decade of his probation. At the end of the time they were married. Mr. Black- well has rigorously retained ever since the day when he set his hat squarely on his head and walked out of his sweetheart's parlor. They have one of the happiest homes in the country and three handsome sons, one of whom is named Sergeant S. Prentiss, and another John Gtifin Carlisle, a fact, by the by, with which the Secretary was not ac- quainted until after the appointment. Finely Tinted Kids. Some of the prettiest coloring of the season is seen in the new gloves. The kids show every gradatjpn of tinting. There is uo costume that may not bo matched by there. Silk gloves, too, are brought out in every shade. Silk gaunt- let gloves are embroidered in self color, not only on the back of the hand, but on the gauntlet. The embroidery is in a wide vine; the gauntlet quite deep. A Line of world's hair Frocks. One of the largest shops in New York is running a line of "World's Fair frocks." They are of white and blue duck made with plain stitched skirts and either Eton jackets with large revers over the shoulders, or with long very full skirted coats of the sante. Of course, the in- evitable shirt must complete this gown. Somehow an unlined skirt of pretty India or glace silk, cut in theaeSpanish circular pattern or the Loie Fuller skirt, appeals to Mani Belle's idea of comfort for the purpose, made quite plain. It would be so light and easy to walk in and as it would only need one petticoat be- neath, it would certainly be cool. This with numerous changes of blouses and shirts would seem the very thing to be desired. While the easiest wrap to' carry around would be a smart little cape, for I suppcse one tvonld have to carry it round all day, or else tramp back to some check -room, seemingly, to tired brains, miles away to get it. Of course, no sane woman would think of wearing a trained gown if she were go- ing to be sight-seeing all day. Oh, no,, surely not; think of the tired fingers holding it up all the long day, or the fretted mind that would result if it trailed about to be stepped on and be- come filthy. A word more about shoes (and it will do no harm to repeat, impressively, wear old ones). The majority of us indulge our natural dislike for exertion in warns weather by wearing the low shoe all through the summer months, and Mem'- selle has not a word to say against it, of course ; it goes without saying that the ankles spread out and become larger, es= pecially if they have to Bold up a good many pounds of fat -but that is another story. In the present case, to tramp around the World's Fair buildings, with occa• sional rest, perhaps, in wheeled chairs or at luncheon tables, for six, eight or ten hours, means very tired feet, and those in neat, snug, well -fitted high boots (laced preferred, f*ar they can be taken up or let out at will) will be only one- half as puffed up and painful when night com. Wese certainly owe it to ourselves to get the most out of this opportunity that we can, and it would be very foolish indeed to burden one's self with uncomfortable garments or with costly, extravagant ones which would take our attention away from the surroundings wo care for. -Mam'selle Chic. The Ever -Popular Tea flown. It l8 refreshing to come home after a hot, tiresome day, take a nice cool bath, and slip into a love of a tea gown, and these charming creations are more popu- lar than ever, and it would seem that their beauty and elegance increase with their popularity. A pretty woman never looks more attractive than when she is trailing about the house in a swirl- ing, clinging tea gown, with soft laces caressing her lovely throat and arms.

The June number of the new national re- view "The CANADIAN rdAuoirsa," is as usual, bright, varied, iuterestiug and well illuetrateu. A commercial art•ule of inter- est to everybody, and full 11 suggestions worthy of the attention of the commercial nen and putlicists both of Canada and the United States, is that by Chauncey N. Dutton, of Washington, on "The Aorta of North 4sonericali commerce." Mr. Dution'o facts aud figures go to show that the rapid growth of American cities on the upper lakes, is twirg to the cheap transportation atlorded to the materiels on which the in- dustries of there- cities dap ed, through large vessels plying on the takes; and he predicts that, should the Kielland Canal and St Lawrence route be deepened, and deep and speedy conuectiou be made from Lake St. George to the Hudson, Toronto and Montreal and various cities en Lake Ontario and the St. Lawrence will also make rapid q.rogrees iu the future. Z. A. Lash, Q. C., contributes a timely article on the querulous before the deliria ' Sea arbitration at Paris. J. J. Mackenzie, Beuteriologist to the Outerio Bard of health, writes in popular vein an illustrated article os- "Bacteria and their rule In Nature." Other illustrated articles are, "The Women of the United States" by Cecil Logsdail, an article on "The Nickel Region of Canada," bringing iuto prominence the enormous value or the mineral deposits of Algorna and Nipissing, and au article "Dak to Peshawer by A. H. Morrison; full of enter- taining ivadents of a ride from Lahore to the Khyber' Pass ; "Rare Specimen," a personal sketch by J. H. Stevenson, P,. A ; "Glimmerings of Sartor Heroines," by C. M. Sinclair; "Aspects of Lake Oatarie," by John Hague, F. R. S. S.;' "Women and Money," by Ela S. Atkinson; and another of Henry Lye's "Tales of Way - gide Ions," are all charmingly written. The stories are "A Cerebral Discovery," by E., MeeG. Lawson, and "The Chamois Hunter." by Flsreece Ashton Fletcher, the latter a most powerful tale, of intense interest and true to life.

Queen victoria Lives at Ease While Other Rulers Are In Trouble. Queen Victoria leads a quieter and less ruffled life than the sovereign of any other country in Europe. She is not bothered with the business of running her government ; she never gets involv- ed in the squabbles of parties; she moves from one of her royal residences to an- other according to her pleasure ; she in- dulges in a foreign tour whenever she is disposed ; she does not need even to keep an eye on the Prince of Wales nowadays, and her domestic cares must be light. All the other sovereigns have a hard time of it- Here is Oscar II., King of Sweden and Norway, tormented by the Norwegian malcontents, by the obstruc- tive Storthing, and by Ibsen. Here is William II., of Germany, driven to his . wits' end by hectoring adversaries. Here is the king of the Greeks, George I., al- ways hard up, and at this time almost overwhelmed in a sea of troubles. Helie is the king of the Belgians, Leopold II., whose throne was menaced a few weeks ago by his rebellious subjects, and saved for a time only by his prudence. Here is the little king of Spain, Alfonso XIII., who must be frightened when he hears his subjects shouting for a repub- lic. Here are the Czar of Russia, the King of Italy, the Emperor of Austria and the Sultan of Turkey, the hardships of whom are known to all the world. The young Queen of the Netherlands, Wilhelmina ; the middle-aged King of Portugal, Charles I., and the old King of Denmark, Christian LX., lead a tolerably quiet life, but they don't °amount to much and may meet with bad luck any day. Among all the sovereigns of Europe it is Her Britannic Majesty alone who is always perfectly serene. In Africa there are no first-class sover- eigns, and we make this remark here, though it may enrage several of the Sul- tans in the northern part of that con- tinent. In Asia there are only two first-class sovereigns, the Emperor of China and the Emperor of Japan, both of whom seem to have a pretty good time. As for the poor Shah of Persia, and as for the second-hand rulers in India, who must lie low before their British masters, they can only take life as it comes. Looking over the whole array of the sovereigns of the world, therefore, we see that Victoria of England is the oneof them whom the others must envy. - New York Sun. NEWS NOTES. -Mr.A. McDonald, of Morris, lost a fine cow a short time since from milk fever, and some of his neighbors, know- ing Ililn to be in rather straightened circumstances, got cut a subscription list, which was taken through the town- ship by Messrs. Jas. Gray and Win. Martin. In less than a week they hr fully enough to buy another cow, with which they presented hint, Mr. Gray headed• the list with $5, and many of the neighbors subscribed very liberally. The cow was purchased from Mr. P. McCasey, who sold it for less than he would have done under any other cir.. cumstances. Mr. McDonald wishes to express his sincere thanks to his many friends for their liberality in this case, especially to Messrs. Gray and Mars tin. -It appears that Mr. John Burwasb, an aged farmer frcfm Waslcada,attempt- ed to ford the Souris, instead of going around by the bridge. The old gentle- man was not well acquainted with the trails. The water is about ten feet deep where he got in, and from the shape in which the buggy was found it is thought that he attempted to turn out when the buggy upset. Mr. Bur -- wash was abont 60 years old and went to Manitoba three years ago front Bruce county, Ontario, settling near Waskada. He leaves a family of five the youngest being about twenty years. He has a brother in' the Metdodist ministry in Ontario. Mr. Burwash was a highly respectable old gentleman and is highly spoken of by all who knew him.
