dividing the eight into four watches.
The fir,st watch was from six to nine,
the second from nine to twelve, the

fourth from three to six.

reason why be doeet not watch. He

robbery to the individual arrested.

unfaithful servant to say "My Lord i

and !different. This easily leads hint
to the next steel, whicbis to de-
velop an intense selfishness which
m'akes him overbearing and cruel to
those over ethane he has authority,
and from that he speedily sinks intd
vice and debauchery.
As a nation hotel utterly unfit are
we at tbe present time, to render

when we remember the eyeful a.nd
Increasing extent of the liquor traf-
fic! There are about 225,000 liquor
dealers and about 1,200,000 bartend-
ers In the United States, More liquor
is sold in one year( than there in
pork, wheat and corn combined. The
cost df flqubr Idr one year is War-
ty twice as Much as the capital
cif all the gational banks. Annually,
18,000,000 'bushelsof grain are dis-
tilled. In 1895 the output of silver
was $64.000,000, the tariff receipts
were $1.8.5„000,000, and the cast set
all departments of government was
$375,000,000; while the drink bill of
this republic was $1,025,000,000.
These figures are simply stupendous.
The physical and Wore1 results of
this coedition of affairs are sluswe
by the fact that, in lone state, out
of 9480 insane people, 5,186 cases
are traced to liquor; of 16,835 crim-
inals, 12,596 were drunk when they
broke the law. In, addition! to all
thee eighty per cent. of all pauper -
Is chargeable to this hellish
traffic. Will not God visit us in judg-
ment for these things ?I believe he
will, unless as a people we quick-
ly reeent. The worst feature or the
caee is that the a.verage, Christian
voter considers other questions of
more importance than he does the
temperance -question.
What a eurprise to have the Lord
appear just when the serve.ati was
utterly unprepared for it, when be
thought himself secure; coming to
settle at swalt a time, and fix his
doom, and "appoint him his portion
with unbelievers!" It would seem to
be a three fold punishment.-Lanson

• Bradstreet's Trade Review.
Business at Meares' is a little more
active in wholesale circles this week.
The orders for water shipment on the
epening of navigation are accumulating,
and much freight is waiting for ship-
ments The western traffic is likely to be
delayed for a couple of weeks owing to
the lateness of the opening of revive
tion on the upper lakes. Remittances
are fair now, but af course there is room
for improvement. There is a fair de-
mand for money and rates are steady,
Business at Toronto is more settled
this week. The 'burned out firms have
mostly found new temporary quarters
and are getting in stocks to meet cur-
rent demands, and hope to be in a posi-
tion to meet all the demands of their
customers very soon. Values of do-
mestic and 'imported manufactures are
firmly held. The prospects for trade
the next couple of months are encour-
aging-
At Quebec business as it iule in -the
various branches of trade is not active,
and the demand is only for immediate
wants,
At Victoria, Vancouver, and other
Pacific coast trade centres, as reported
to Bradstreet's this week, mercantile
operations are on a fairly large scale.
Large shipments of tattle, hardware,
machinery, ete., are being made to the
Yukon, and some perishable goods, such
as butter, eggs, etc., have been made
to the White Horse. Real estate busi-
ness is active at Vancouver, and there
is much activity in bleeding.
The more favorable weather is having
the effect of improving trade at Winni-
peg and through Manitoba now. Many
settlers continue to arrive, ane as they
appear to be well provided with cash,
the arrivals of these newcomers in the
country are expected to be quite an im-
portant factor in the purchasing power
of the country. Seeding operations are
beceming more general, and it is con-
fidently expected that there will be an
appreciable increase in the wheat area.
Businese,at Hamilton this week leis
been mere active. The destruction of
largo quareitiee of seasonable storks at
Toronto has resulted in an increase in
businese in certain lines with Hamilton
firma and orders are being promptly
filled and shipments are larger now.
Values of staple goods are firm.
London wholesale trade is more active
this week. The weather hat beenmore
favorable to the movement of season -
Able geode and tbe fire at Terento has
resulted in an iriereese in bigness by
tbe wholesale dry good., stationery and
other firms. Prices are firmly held.
There is more activity in seasonable
goods at Ottawa this week, necording to
reports rereivea by Bradstreet's. (Veers
for spring dry goods mul millinery to
sort stooks are coming forward freely
now,
atti in other lines there is a very
fair rooverient.

)Itorcato World; Alfred Grimbleby,
Who until a. row stays ago was pro-
prietor of the Beack Boras Hote1,114-
120 East Feont _street, has left town.
There is a large number of people
who regret his going. Be went rath-
er suddenly. He neglected to men-
tion the fact that he purposed leav-
ing the city. His creditors, and there
are many of them, mould like to
know" his /present address.
Grimbleby was formerly a mem-
ber of the fire department. Through
ihfluence a nveleknosvn brewery was
induced to back him, and lie was
put in possession of the Black Horse
Hotel. The place does a big busi-
ness and turns over a, lot of money
in a rweek. Grimbleby never ea,w so
much money before. Be lost his
head.. Re tbought all he 'had to do
seas to spend the money that came
in over the bar. He overlooked the
fact that there were bills to pay.
Ile soon learned that the easiest
wily to tet rid of ready •coin was
to go up against the ponies and as-
sociate with fast women. That is
what he did, and with the lusdal re-
sult. Ile is sons h, fugitive from jus-
tice. If a warrant is not already
issued for bis arrest, there seill be
one to -day. 1
For HOMO time Grimbleby has been
intending th get out of Toronto. His
only confident was a well-known
woman of the town, to whom he bad
been paying much attention. She
was to have joined him shortly. But
the best laid plans often get tangled.
rearore Grimbleby left the city he
went to a nuniber of prominent jew-
elers and purchased about $1,500
worth of diamonds. He made it small
(melt payment at each 'store and
gave his cheque for the balance. The
cheques were accePted without ques-
tion. A hotelkeeper is always sup-
posed to be good pay. The cheques
were returned "No funds." The
jewelers could not find Grimbleby be-
cause lie bad left tofw,n. Then they
asked the p,id of the police.
Detective Duncan, 'who 10 lecona-
ing Tommie an a hunter after stolen
diamonds, was given charge of the
ease. As usual, he was successful.
Ho admitted, reluctantly, to a World
reporter, that he had recovered
about $1000 worth of the fraudu-
lently purchased diamonds. Ile found
Utem with the woman whp was go-
ing to join Grimbieby. She gave
them up waling's, and raid she had
no idol that they had not been
bought honestly.
Grimbleby leaves a wife and fare -
Hy. Receivers are now in cliarge of
the hotel. It Is thought that the lic-
ense will be transferred' to Mrs. Grim-
bleby, who is a hard working, de-
serving woman, and who bas been
