IV In our first letter we neglected stat- ing that church service was held on the train Sunday morning at 10.30. Rev, Bro. Walsh, deputy grand chap- lain, assisted by Rev. Mr. Kingsford, of Newark, N. J., both Church of England, engaged in the service and reading a portion of Scripture. The Bible used on the occasion was printed in 1688. All joined in singing and responding most heartily. Earlier in the morning a most exciting • incident occurred. A devout Roman Catholic on rising from his berth prayed aloud to the many revered Saints and finally asked if there was not a Catholic present to respond. Bro. Burnett replied that we were "all Catholics, but not Roman Catholics." In less time than it takes to tell it the man of prayer was going through various evolutions and Sullivan contortions, with clutched fist, in front of Bro. Burnett. He was in for gore, but his passions were soon allayed by moral suasion. He was evidently off his base —not quite sound in body or mind. On this same train Sunday morning I had the pleasure of sleeting Mr. Thos. F. G.. Foisy, the celebrated piano manu- facturer of 214 Avenue Papineau, Mon- treal. The gentleman is an excellent conversationalist, but was so ill that he could not complete his wardrobe or eat the tempting breakfast prepared for him. The writer has travelled enough to have some experience how to start out and Mr. Foisy knew what was required. A little "sealed club" .was administered and in the course cf half an hour he thanked an Orangeman for restoring to health a Roman Catholic, On Sunday afternoon Major White, Col. White, Col. Scott and the writer engaged a cab to see the • sights, but ram shortly after came down in torrents and we had to hurriedly return to the Lovett House. In the evening Col. Hogg, Col. White, the writer an a fourth party Whose name we cannot recall, attended St. Luke's Church, the pro -cathedral already referred to. The Rector is Rev, E. P. Crawford, who at one time gained considerable notoriety in Hamilton, Ont. In the service he was assisted by Dean Gilpin and Dr.' Bullock. A prominent feature was the surplice choir, consisting of boys from four years up, young men and elderly gentlemen, all with well trained voices; the singing was indeed perfect and the sermon an able one. Monday morning the party were tendered a free excursion on a tug around the Northwest Arm and out to open sea, a distance of eight or ten miles. There was good demand for empty bottles and flasks in which to secure from the bosom of the salted sea samples of water for friends at home. In the afternoon a half dozen of the delegates secured a guide and row boat at 25 cents each in order that the British roan -of -war "Crescent" might be visited. Being visitors day, the party, including W. J. Parkhill, Mid- land; Major White, St. Marys; Col. White, (Guelph, Were assured there would be no difficulty in getting on board. It so happened there was at the time a French man-of-war in the harbor, by name "Crossieur La Laclo- cherie," and all insisted on visitingher first, providing permission coud be obtained to go on board. Col. Scott, of Kincardine, who by the way is a failure as an interpreter, was successful in his great effort and the party were soon onboard. The first sights would not impress one with the Golden Rule of cleaniness. Hem and there a marin- er soldier was seen stretched out on deck, sleeping, with a two months growth of beard on their faces, the extreme heat of Old Sol literally frying the grease out of them. Then two squads of what we "land lubbers" would call infantry greeted our eyes. They were being put through tiring exercise in kneeling position. The moment the commanding officer gave the word of command it was repeated by the squad together and the rifles were brought to the position with an "ooh." Beyond this, on the deck, the party gazed .uppon two low -set milch cows, in Anything but a clean condition as far ae the fleck was concerned. The vationS catnip pieces were apparently in good cot►flition, but were virtually "not in it" -When compared with the British. II " e revolvers and other weapons of wrfare were numerous on the second dI k below and the soldiery were hard at work, many of them in nature's foot -wear.

After. t'.tipping" the guide --a most reprehensible• custom-'- the party�� set out for the British "Crescent. And after impressions make one proud to belong to such a great Nation. We were received very courteously, apd auide at once placed at our disposal by one of the commanding Officers. What a contrast between what we had just left and the than-of:war we were now on Everything clean—so clean that a tempting surloin or delicious ham and eggs might be served on the bare deck.. Is it to be wondered at, then, that Cauadiains and all Britishers should have a high opinion of Britain's un- conquerable Navy ? Certainly not. And the guns and torpedoes and other weapons of death ! On the "th escent" there are fourteen pieces and we were informed thatsbe could on three minu tes notice he in action throwing canon and shell into' the enemy. On the "Crescent" are several quick firing guns and these as well as the others protect the firer by shields. It is simply won- derful how a man can work, control, raise, lower and manipulate with ease a 22 -ton gun ; but such is a fact. Be- low the upper deck is several steerage apartments worked by such a complete system of mechanism that the heat night be pierced by the emenyat sev- eral points, the apartments filled with water, and still the ship would be un- der full control. The men are drilled on land as well as at sea, because they are expected, if occasion arises, to fight on either. The magazine on the boat, the guide stated, contained enough powder to blow up the whole city of Halifax. Everything from top to bot- tom was clean and tidy, the men gen- tlemanly and trim in appearance. Leaving the "Crescent" we made for shore and reached our boarding house in time for tea. The Grand Black Chapter was to meet on Monday night, but things we're not satisfactory since the official documents, though check- ed through from Toronto in good time, had failed to arrive.

THAT MCAS SHOT NEAR MONTREAL NOW ON VIEW IN THAT CITY. IT IS 32i FEET LONG. The Back River sea serpent, shot on Friday by 3. Meadows, has caused a big sensation in Montreal. It is un- doubtedly a genuine sea serpent, or more definitely it is a specimen, and a lat'ge-sized one, of that species of reptile seen in so many inland waters during the summer and previous years. When the serpent was •shot it had raised its head about six feet above the surface of the water in the style that has so often been graphically described and just as often doubted. HOW THE SERPENT WAS SHOT. This is the story as told by the Mont- real Herald : Friday afternoon Mr. Samuel Meadows, artist, living at 260 Richinond street ; Charles Greenwood, of 285 St. Martin street ; E. Douglas, of Notre Dame street, and Fred Morris started for a fishing and shooting ex- pedition to Back River. They secured a boat and went out looking for fish, hut they little dreamed of the extraor- dinary game that was in store for them,. Ifni fact, just about 4 o'clock someone made the remark that it was time to go and:get something to eat. At that moment the' attention of the party was attracted hy some extraordinary flsh which had lifted his head over a foot above the surface of the water. There have been such stories told this sum- mer of the sea serpent that the suspic- ions of the party were immediately aroused. Mr. Meadows, who is a mem- ber of the Prince of Wales Rifles, grasped his gun atsd awaited a second appearance of the monster. It was not slow in again showing its head. LIKE THE TRUNK OF A BIG TREE. It did not look aggressive, but rather inquisitive and perfectly calm. But Mr. Meadows did not stop to he at- tacked. He was within two hundred feet, and he seized the opportunity to fire. In' an instant an immense body like the trunk of some big tree rose above the water with a hiss, then fall- ing hack, began to writhe violently, beating the water into a foam for a hundred feet around. Were our friends afraid P It would be impertin- ent to ask them. They admit that they began to row away. But the fury and struggles of the monster quickly subsided, and he appeared floating quietly on the water like a log. Our fishermen paused, then cantiously ap- proached. In his agony the serpent had drawn near the shore, and was lyitig in about four feet of water. Mr. E. Douglas boldly jumped into the water to grapple the body of the giant reptile and draw it ashore, where the victors could examine their capture. DESCRIPTION OF THE SEA SERPENT. The scene was near the iron bridge at Sault au Recollet. A crowd quickly gathered, but no one has ever seen the like of it. The body by actual meas- urement was 321 feet long, and meas- ured 3 feet 9 inches around the thickest part of the body. Around the head the citcumferencewas 18 inches. It, had short fins extending over the head and neck, but the back was perfectly smooth, rather flat in the broadest part of the body. The skin is almost black over the hack, and grows paler to white under the belly. It is perfectly smooth. There are two flippers on each side of the neck, hut no signs of feet, the jaws are reddish find have sharp teeth about one-half inch in length. The eyes are about one inch in diameter. a bright, yellow, with just a small black spot in the centre. The shot from Meadows' rifle took effect in the neck about eighteen inches from the mouth, It took sik men to carry the body to Mr. Peloguin's hotel. It has been put in a solution of saltpetre and salts of ammonia, which, it is said will preserve it. WITH INVALIDS.

THE '1,441 D $$n„im. i ' n or kChsraniugrdtUTale Aytlllilertrkorker.. The five bl;otherts lived with laouison. Pontiac, and ? edallon came . to know them first through haying WQld theta, at an auction, a sale of an adjoining farm. tie had been invited ta'their home, intimacy had grown and after- wards, having a severe filness, he had been taken into the household and kept there until he. was well again. The night of the arrival Louison, the sister, stood with a' brother on either hand --Octave and Florian—and receiv- ed hila with courtesy more stately than usual, an expression of the re- serve and modesty of her single state. This maidenly dignity was at all times shielded by the ave brothers, who treated her with a constant and re- verential courtesy. There wah some- thing signally suggestive in their hom- age, and Medallion concluded at last that it was paid not only to the sister but to something that gave her great importance in their eyes. He puzzled long and finally decided that Louison had a romance. There was something in the way they said "P'tite Loulson," in the way they avoided all gossip regarding marriages and marriage feasfing,in the way P'tite Louison's opinion was accepted in- stantly as final, with triumphant and satisfied nods on the part of all the brothers, and with whispers of " How clever !"—"How adorable !" " Such beauty !" P'tite Louison affected never to hear these remarks, but looked complacent- ly straight before her, stirring the spoon in the bread and butter. She was quite aware of the adoration in which she was heid, and she grace- fully accepted the fact that she was an object of interest. Medallion had not the heart to laugh at the homage of her brothers, nor at the outlandish sister, for though she was angular and sallow and thin, and • her,hands were large and red, there was a something deep in her eyes, a curious quality in her carriage which commanded respect. She had ruled these brothers, had been worshipped by them for nearly half a century, and the romance they had kept alive had produced a grotesque serf of truth and beauty in the admiring "P'tite Lout - son," an aktecttonate name for her greatness- like the ' "'Little Corporal " for Napoleon. She was not little either but about the middle height, and her hair was well streaked with gray. Her manner towards Madelllon was not marked by any affectation. She was friendly in a kind, impersonal way, much as a nurse cares for a pa- tient, and she never relaxed a sort of old-fashioned courtesy, which might have been trying in such close quart- ers were it not for the real simplicity of the life and the spirit and lightness of their race. One night Florian—there were Fiarian and Octave and Felix and Isidore and Emily—the eldest drew her aside from the others, and they walked together by the river. Flo- rlan's air suggested confidence and mystery, and soon, with a voice of hushed suggestion. he told Medillion the romance of P'tite Louison. And each of the brothers at different times during the next two weeks did the same, differing scarcely at all in de- tails or choice of phrase or meaning,and not at all in general facts and essen- tials. But each, as he ended, made a different exclamation. "Voila ! so sad, so wonderful ! She keeps the ring—dear P'ttte Louison ! Bald Florian, the eldest. "Alors ! she gives him a legacy in her will—sweet P'tite Louison !" said Octave. "Mais ! the Governor and the Cardi- nal admire her—P'tite Louison 1" said Felix,nodding confidently at Medallion. "Bien ! you should see the linen and the petticoats !" said Isadore, the hum- orous one of the family. "He was great—she was an angel—P'tlte Lout - son joli !" Attends ! what love 1 what hist9�Ty! what passion!—the perfect P'tite Loui- son !" cried Emile, the youngest; the most sentimental: "Ah, Moliere 1" he added, as if calling on the master to Ti$e and sing the glories of this daughter of romance. Isadore's tole was after this fashion : "I ver' well remember the first of It, and the last of it—who can tell ? He was an actor—ah, so droll, that. Tall, ver' smart. and he plays in theatre at Montreal. It is in the winter. P'tite Loulson visit Montreal. She walk past the theatre and as she go by she slip on the snow and fall. Out from a door with a jump come M'sleu Hadrian, and pick her up. And when he see the pretty face of P'tite Loulson his eyes go all fire, and he clasp her hand to his breast." " 'Mademoiselle ! Mademoiselle r he say, 'we must meet again " "She thank him and hurry away quick. Next day she is skating, and she try to do the dance of the Blue Fox upon the ice. While She do it, some one come up swat, and catch her hand, and say, 'Mademoiselle, let's do it to- gether—like dat. It take her breath away. It is M'aleu Hadrian. He not seem like the other man she know, but he have a sharp look, he is smooth in the face and he smile kind like a woman. P'tite Louison, she give him her hand, and they run away, and every one stop to look. It is a grand sight. He laugh and his teeth shine, and the ladies say things cif him, and he tell P'tite Louison that she look ver' fine and walk like a queen - I am there that day and I see all, and I think it damn good. I say 'That P'tlte Louison, she beat them all,—I am only twelve years old then. When he leave he give her t-vo seats for the theatre, and we go. By gosh, that is grand thing—that play, and M'sleu Hadrian, he is a prince; and my lord, I will marry out of my state, and where my heart go, not as the state wills,' he look down at P'tite Louison, and she go all red, and some of the women look at her, and there is a whisper all round. "Nex' day he come to the house where we stay, but the cure come also pretty soon and tell her She must go home. And so we come out home. Well, what db you think ! Nex' day M'steu Hadrian come too, and we have damn good time—Florian, Octave, Fe- lix, Emile, they all sit and say : 'Par- foltement !' 'C1,01 !' to him all the time. Holy, what fine stories he tell 1 And he talk about P'tite Louison, and his eyes get wet, and Emile say hie ,pr'airers to him—fay gosh. Yes 1 thinly. Well, at last, what sou guess ' M'eiei, he conte end conte, end at last one day he arty that he leave Montreal and Ws to New 'front, where he get a good place in a big theatre; his time in Montreal is anisic. So he speak to Florian end say he want to marry P'tite Loulson, and he say, of coure, that he is not marry and he have money. But he is a 1'ro- teatan', and the cure at brat ver' mad, by gosh ! But at last when he give a hander dollars to the church, the cure say yes. All happy that way for while. P'tite Loulson, she get ready quick— holy, what fine things had she, and Is all to be done in a week, while the theatre in New York wait for M'sieu. And he sit there with us, and play on the fiddle, and sing songs and act plays and help Florian .ln the barn, and Oc- tave to mend the fence, and the cure to fix the grapevines on his wall. And he show me and Emile how to play sword sticks; and he pick flowers and fetch them to P'tlte Louison and show her how to make an omelette and . salad like the chef of the Louis Quinze Hotel, so to ray. By gosh, what a good time we have, but first one and then another, he get a sob in his throat when he think that P'tite Loui- son go to leave us, and the more we try the more we are damn fools. And that P'tlte Louison, she kiss every one and say to M'sieu Hadrian, 'Charles, I love you, but I cannot go. He laugh at her, and say : 'Voila, we will take them all with us.' That night a thing happen. The cure come and he look ver' mad, and he frown, and he say to M'sleu Hadrian before us all : 'M'sieu. you are married !' "By gosh, that P'tite Louison get )Dale like snow,. and we all stand round her close and say to her quick : 'Cour- age, P'tlte Loulson,' M'sieu Hadrian then look at the priest and said : 'No, M'sieu; I was married ten years ago; my wife drink and go wrong and I get divorce:, I am free like the wind.' " 'You are not free,' the cure say quick, 'once married, married till death. The Church cannot -marry you again, and I command Louison to give you up.' "P'tite Louison stand like stone. M'sieu turn to her. What shall it be, Loulson ?' he say. 'You Will come with me ?' "Kiss me, Charles,' she say, 'and tell me good -by till—till you are free.' "He look like a madman. 'Kiss me once, Charles,' she say, 'and let me go.' "And he come to her and kiss her on the lips once, and he say, 'Louison, come with me. I will never give you up.' "She draw back to Florian. "Good - by, Charles,' she say. 'I will wait as long as you will. Mother of God, how hard it is to do right 1' she say, and then she turn and leave the room, "'M'steu Hadrian, he gave a long sigh. 'It was my one chance,' he say. 'Now the devil take it all.' Then he nod and say to the cure : 'We'll thrash this out at Judgment Day, M'sieu. I'll meet you there—you and the wo- man that spoiled me.' "He turn to Florian and the rest of us and shake hands, and say, 'Take care of Louison. Thank you, Good -by.' Then he stare towards the door and stumble, for he look sick. 'Give me a drink,' he say, and begin to cough a little—a queer sort of rattle. Florian give him a big drink, and he toss it off. 'Thank you,' he say, and start again, and we see him walk away over the hill ver' slow, and he never come back ! But every year there comes from New York a box of flowers, and every year P'tite Louison send him a Merci, Charles, mille lois. Dleu to garde.' It is so every year for twenty- five year." "Where is he now ?" asked Medal - 1 Isadore shook his head, then lifted his eyes religiously. "Waiting for Judgment Day and P'tite Louison," he answered. "Dead !" cried Medallion. "How long ?" "Twenty years." "But the flowers—the flowers ?" "He left word for them to be sent just the same. The daughter, the child of the other woman, sent them." Medallion took off his hat reverently as if a'son were passing from the world, but it was only P'tite Loulson going out into the garden. "She thinks him living ?" he asked, gently. "Yes, we have no heart to tell her. And then he wished it so. And the flowers kep' coming." "Why did he wish it so ?" Isidore mused a while. "Who can tell ? Perhaps a whim. He was a great actor—ah, yes, sublime 1" he said. Medallion did not reply, but walked slowly down to where P'ttte Louison was picking berries. His hat was off still. "Let me help you, mademoiselle," he said softly. And henceforth he was as foolish as her brothers. GILBERT PARKER. A ]tare Instance. Although difficult to believe, it is nevertheless true that the death os two half-sisters, the daughters of the same father, occurred 170 years apart. The grandfather of the British Minis- ter, Charles James Fox. Sir Stephen Fox, married In 1654, and had a daughter born to him in 1655, who died in the course of the same year. He had several other children, who grew up and married, but all of them died before their father, and without Issue. Sir Stephen, not wishing his large fortune to fall into the hands of distant relatives, married again at a very advanced age, and his youngest daughter was born in 1727. She reach- ed the age of 98 years and died in 1825, that is, 170 years after the death of her oldest sister. She saw Queen Victoria when the latter was a child, while her half-sister was carried in the arms of Oliver Cromwell. Cycles as Passenger Vehicles. Public cycles as passenger vehicles have appeared in the streets of Lon- don. Whether they are tricycles or quadrlcycles we are not informed, but they are said to be operated by two men, and to have hireable seats for two passengers besides. For many years past, or long before the pneuma- tic tires made the bicycle a machine of practical use, the London butchers and green grocers, and various other tradesmen have used the tricycles, driven by lusty boys usually, for the delivery of small articles.

REV. L. W. SHOWERS GIVES HIS EXPERIENCE WITII ORGANIC HEART DISEASE—THE DREAD MALADY ON THE INCREASE. For many years my greatest enemy has been organic heart disease. From an uneasiness ahont'the heart, with palpitation more or less severe, it had developed into abnormal action, thumping, fluttering, and choking sensations, Dull pain with a peculiar warm feeling were ever present near the heart. I have tried many physi- cians and taken numerless remedies with very little benefit. Seeing Dr. Agnew's Cure for the Heart advertised in the Kittanning, Pa., papers, I pur- chased a bottle and began its use, re- ceiving almost instant relief. I have now taken several bottles of the rem- edy and can speak most highly in its favor. The choking, abnormal beating, thumping and palpitation have almost entirely disappeared. The remedy is certainly a wonder -worker, for my case was chronic. Rev. L. W. Showers, Elderton, Pa. Sold by Watts & Co. Mr. G. F. Pearson, a leading resident of West Selkirk, Man., was thrown from his horse In that town, and in- stantly killed. Tired women need to have their blood purified and enriched by Hooch's Sarsaparilla. It will give them strength and health.
