The wind and rain, together with the abundance of mud, made it rather disagreeable around the yards and lanes and trading was rather dull. Prime beeves are held at firm rates, bet the common and superior stook, in - eluding quite a number of Lenten bulls, brought lower prices than on last week's market. Prime beeves aold et from 4}o to 4o per Ib, and a few choice animals were held for higher figures.

Hannah Le Bar, young woman employ ed as a domestic in the Manchester build- ing, died on Saturday from the effects of a morphine powder taken in mistake for quinine. At the Civil Assizes in Toronto damages of $1,000 were awarded Egbert B. Fleury, of Stouffville, in his'action against Geo. M." Campbell for alienating the affections of his wife. A writ was issued in the county court, Ottawa, by Ann Davidson, widow of the late W. R. Davidson, florist, Montreal, against all the membere of the late Domin- ion Government for 51,041, the price of the wreath ordered by them to be planed on the coffin of the late Sir John Thompson, as a token of their al -faction and esteem, and for which they have never paid. "Farming," in its issue of this week, makes a strong plea for the retention of Hon. John Dryden in the Ontario Govern - meat. It points out that the Minister of Agriopltare has served his native Province faithinlly and well, and it affirms that Mr Dryden is "the very best man for the posi- tion on the Government side of the House." A frightful fatality occurred in Dublin on Saturday. Mrs Delia T. Stewart Par- nell, mother of the late leader, Charles Stewart Parnell, was sitting by the fire in the Parnell homestead, when her clothing caught fire, and she was almost inetantly, enveloped in flames. Before the fire was extinguished Mrs Parnell had been fatally burned. Thos. Goffatt, Orillia's ex-poatmaster, who was found guilty on a charge of sup- plying an instrument to Fanny Young to perform an operation, from whioh she afterwards died, was sentenced to one year in the Central. The prisoner, who made an attempt to oommit suicide by cutting his throat the other day was quite unmoved when he heard his sentence, but it was evidently much lighter than expected. Mr Duchosneaa, who was dismissed fi'txn the wardenehip'of the St. Vincent de Paul Penitentiary to make room for Mr Oui- met, a political friends of the late Govern- ment, and a brother of one of the Miiiie- tere, has bean reinstated. Mr Onimet was suspended during, the recent, investigation into the affairs of the penitentiary, and telrw rds iianiissed. This . sot of justice wwr48 Mr tinehe9neau wi11 be generally pprogred. TORONTO LIVE STOOK MARKETS Cattle were firmer at the Toronto mar- ket on Tuesday, and although the offerings were more liberal there was a good demand and all were absorbed.

Improved breeding is having its effect, and the farmer who has looked well after the antecedents of his young stock will now be the gainer. The latest visitor to leading Ontario stocks has been Mr J. N. Woods, of Illinois, who purchased a number of choice animals at good prices. Sir Rode- rick W. Cameron, of West Albert, N.W.T., desires to bay Ontario cattle on a mach larger scale. He has written to the On• tario Minister of Agriculture asking for 2,5000 young animals, to further stook his 100,000 acre ranch. He prefers Ontario cattle, because of their superiority of breed and freedom from disease. Ontario is bound to become more and more a cattle - breeding Province. The man who chooses wisely in the first instanoes oan make money at that business. THE BUTTER TRADE. • The season for butter has had a ranch better wind-up than many expected at the beginning of the year, when prices com- menced to decline, and sold down to I8c for finest creamery at the latter part of February. About that time a demand ,set in from England, whioh soon absorbed sur- plus offerings, and prices advanced to 29/o to 210 for finest fresh made creamery. Old creamery has sold at 18o to 19e, a lot that failed to find a buyer about six weeks ago at 14o selling at 18o recently. Quite a number of factories are now working, but the deliveries of milk are light, although increasing, and by the middle of next month the snpplies are expected to be more liberal, if not before. -Montreal Trade Bulletin. OOMMEROIAL NOTES. W. Hogg & Son, East Niesouri, import- ers and breeders of Shorthorn cattle, sold two fine heifere last week to George Moth - oral, Maniton, Man. The animals were 12 and 14 months old, and brought 575 each. Sir Roderick W. Cameron, of the firm of R. W. Cameron & Co., who have 100,000 acres of pasture land in Alberta, wants 2,- 500 head of young stockers for his ranch, and has written F. W. Hodson, of the Live Stock Assooiation to that effect. MANY CATTLE ON THE MOVE. The shipping of cattle for the old oountry market is more than ordinarily brisk for this season of the year and prices are cor- respondingly good, A firm of buyers now going through the oountry have just ship- ped about 200 head from Toronto, Elora, and St. Marys. In addition to these ship- ments the local buyers are also very active, and the early and extensive shipments are encouraging to feeders of stook everywhere. .. r Premier Greenway of Manitoba has just celebrated hie 60th birthday. The repent eoandal in social oirolee,in Ot- tawa,arieing out of a number of robberies at high and faehionable funotione promiees to give rise to a most interesting libel snit. Almost simultaneously with the announce- ment that robberies had been committed, the name of a .prominent eooiety lady was most freely mentioned as being the guilty party. The report, which, in eome oases was given credence, was circulated broad oast through the city, with the result that the lady in question, formerly one of the "four hundred," ie ostracized from fashion. able eooiety, and unjustly regarded as being guilty of an offence of a most grave and em - barraging nature. It is understood that an action for libel will be instituted against a Montreal paper, whioh, when referring to the affair, not only stated that the sweet - ed party was the wife of a prominent civil servant of Ottawa, but even went so far as to give the department in whioh the gentle- man was employed, and almost the partic- ular position he occupied. The lady in question emphatically declares her inno- cence, and denies the faintest knowledge concerning the case. 4•tliJ tivertiseluleuts.
