In Camden tnwhship, some five rnilea

acrose the lifeless body of his brother, who
bad left him, to drive the team nome for
dinner about fifteen minutes before. John
called two neighbors, and together they
brought in the body, having found his neck
broken and his face and head out. James
evidentally fell with his head between the
wheels and tbe body of the wagon.
Dr Barber, of the Mimico Asylum, is in
a very serious ocndition, the result of a cat
bite received the other day. The institu-
tion cat had kittens, and on the day in '
question the batch was attacked by a dog.
The cat turned on the dog and the two
were engaged in a fight whish would pro-
bably have ended in the cat's death, when
Dr. Barber came along and attempted to
separate them. The oat then attacked him,
biting him severely in the arm. Blood

leg, completely severing it, and besides he
suffered several severe lnteruai injuries.
He was taken to the general hoepital,wbere

All that is now required is the benign
smile and good will of the clerk of the
weather and e good days sport is assured
at Lucknow on July let. Good con tem sin
all the events -base -ball, senior and juui, r
lacrosse, foot ball and band touramout-
are now assured and with a fine day every-
thing promises favurably for a first clans
days sport. The train going South will be
held one hour and the 10,30 train north
will be held one hour to allow passengers
to attend the concert. Such taleut as J.
Wyatt Trended, the world renowned
ciarionettiet; T. H. Marks, Canada's fevo-
rate comedian, and othere have been secur-
ed for "Ye Olde Folkee' Concert in the
Eventide." es
The strike among the factory operatives
of St. Petersburg continues to epread.
The strikers now number 40,000, constetiug
m>atly of ern )loyes in the o )(ton mule.
Many of them are women. Thus far the
etrikers have acted in a peaceful manner.
They demand increaeed pay and shorter
hours. The I olice declare that Nthlltete
instigated the trouble. Several etupluyers
are willing to concede to the dematide of
the strik re, but the police forma thea) to
du ,u. It is repurr•o.l (bet the uperatrves ur-
teud to personally petition the Czar to in-
tervene in their behalf. The police have
taken atria precaution to prevent them
from doing this.
In most other Parliamentary countries a
majority is always and primarily a major •
ity, and it behav, s as such. In En ;laud
atone can you find a majority of immense
dimensions, armed with the powerful and
sufficient weapon of closure and with no op-
position worth coneldering, which suddenly
stops on the path it had marked out to fol-
iose, meditates, gets nervcus, examines its
conscience tearfully, and finally turnetail
in a panic of its own creation, trampling on
its leaders and abandoning its party bag-
gage in undignified, unintelligidle flight.
'1'bat is how the situation reveale itself to
the superficial view. A closer examination,
however, shows something more and bet-
ter -it shows th..t Englishmen are really
governed by reason, and that not even a
majority of 150, bound together by perhaps
the strongest disciplinary ties that any
modern British party has known can bo
dragooned into passing a bill which, upon
reflection, it sees would be bad for thecoun-
try. That is the true explantion of what
has happens in respect to the split over the
Education Bill.
