Golden Text: "But these a,re written that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the on of God, and that believ- ing ye might have life through Ills name" (John xx. 31). Let the word "life" be the keynote for the review. Lesson I. Life given for life. "I tun the good shepherd; the good :shepherd giveth his life for the sheep's (John x. 11). "He gives his life a ransom for many" (Matt. xx. 28). The shepherd dies that his sheep may live (John ay. 13). A man of God hatted at the door of a log house in a clearing, and said to the woman who answered the eall, "Have you :leen anything of a lost lamb about here ?" "No, sir," was the reply. "Are you sure you have seen no lost lamb about here 1" She said she had seen none, "Are you eertain there is no lost lamb here .1" he inquired the third time, in tones sof nil of meaning that they touch- ed her heart, and led her to confesa with tears that she was the lost lamb for whom the good Shepherd evet then was seeking. There are many lost lambs. Itesurection and life. "Jesus said unto her, I am the reeurreetion and the life" aTobri Xi 25;. It was not a ques- tion of time. Ile could, as easily raise Lazitrus that day as the last day, for He, the resurrection, the power to itro part, maintainand restore life, was there. Ile would teach Martha, that the resurrection was not an impersonal fate to take plate in the future, but a per. effect proeeedieg front himself; not a dista»t resurreetiolt, but a present , resurreetiorepower.

Dominion Government Fisheries Protec- tion Vessel Ran Into Her, A Port Stanley, Ont„ report: This =indite°about 0.15 the Government cruiserVigitant, Capt. Dunn, sighted a fishing tug about six miles east of Mid- dle Island, in Lake Erie, and about five miles north of che boundary line. The captain ebanged his course and made towards the tug, which proved to be the Grace M., of Lorain, Ohio., Cstpt. William Galbraith. The tug carne towards the Vigilant, and wben quite near her Capt. Dunn signaillell with his whistle for her crew to cbeek. No attention was paid to the signal. Then Capt. Dunn wbistlea to stop, but the tug shot past the Vigilant with full steam. Captain Dunn turned and soon over- hauled her, but the tug continued to* dodge the Vigilant, notwithstanding the fact that Captain Dunn had fired across her bows several times, The Vigilant was again coming up on the tug when she again attempted to cross the Vig- : ilant's bow. Captain Dunn, seeing there (was likely to be a collision, stoppvl and backed full steam. ; He had his boat well stopped when they came together, but the momentum I of the Vigilant wan sufficient to roll ' the Grace M. over, and she sank. Cap- t.= Dunn rescued. Capt. Galbraith, Ell- g.ineer Wiu. Itulleson and D. Popplewell, a fisherman. Two fishermen named Martin Oleson, of Cleveland, and Wm., Anderson, of Lorain, were drowned. Captoin Galbraith admits that Capt. Dunn was in no way to blame, and now to his sorrow realizes he should have obeyed Capt. Dunn's signals and stopped his boat when ordered to do so. : MAY ABANDON CONFERENCE. Belief That Colonial Premiers Will Not Meet Next Year. London, June 12.. -In the House of Commons last night the Colonial Secre- tary said. that at the last Colonial Con- ference it eves decided to meet at inter- vals of not more than four years, and it would be, he thought, a pity, without the assent of the colonies, to postpone or adjourn it for any partisan purpose. It was clear that once the conference was assembled it would not be compe- tent to rule out any question brought forward by a colonial Premier. The Prime Minister had informed Um Home that the Government did not pro- pose to initiate any subject dealing with the commercial preference, and not to summon any Indian representatives to the meeting under those conditions. He entirely agreed with Lord Lans- downe, that it would be extremely im- probable that the colonies would bring up the fiscal question. It was not it (petition of such entrancing interest or appetizing nature, lie did not, deny that it was of transcendeut importance, but men woul(l not go to great labor in $ 02 102 092 0 80 000 000 000 1030 800 10 00 9 23 2 75 021 0 20 025 0 14 0 18 085 075 050 000 10 50 7 50 900 7 75 10 00 9 50 15 00 Leading Wheat Markets.

Montreal trade reports to Bradstreet's say: The backward spring with an at- tendant rain and cool weather has had a bad effect upon nearly all lines of trade. In drygoods this is particularly the case. Summer gods are not moving as they should, nor will they until warm- er weather sets in in reality. But in other lines of trade there has been some signs of improvement. Country stocki have been. moving fairly well and there is a better tone to the sorting trade. it is generally felt, and wholesalers here admit the truth of the statement, that the trade of this e,•ear is not so great in volume as that of a year ago. The heavy movement of hardware is unabat- ed and the demand for groceries is rath- er more active. Sugars have declined 100 per 100 lbs, but in other lines of commodities there are few changes in values. Toronto trade advices to Bradstreet's say: Wholesale trade here hns taken on a more active tone during the past wek. Staple lines of groceries are mov- ing well and all lines of hardware con- tinne•to move briskly. The retailers are well suppiled with summer goods, which are not now moving any too well on ac- count of the cool weather. Other lines of business report conditions quite satis- factory. The industries are actively en- gaged and the general outlook is bright. Trade with the Northwest continues act- ive and there is an improvement in col- lections from Mat part of the conetry. Country trade is fair. At Quebec reports to Bradstrect's show little change m trade conditions from that of the preceding week. in the shoe industry some of the larger fac- tories are fairly busy. Winnipeg advices to Bradstretes Ray: The bettered condition of things noted last week continues. Building opera - time here and, in the surrounding coun- try is rapidly developing. Victoria, and Vancouver: There is a quiet tone to trade here and less activ- ity is noted to all branches of trade. This is natural, however, after the activ- ity of the past few months and it is looked upon merely as a passing lull. Active preparations are under way for the coming salmon run which is expect- . ed to be very large. Bradstret's advices from Hamilton say trade there is in a geuerally Satisfac- tory condition. The movement of whole. sale goods is not large, but retell trade and the manufacturing interests show considerable activity. The movement of summer gods is affected by the cool weather. Collections are fair to good. London trade reportsay the trade movement there is fair to good. Re - ceipts of country produce are fairly large and the retail trade in the coun- forming propositions when conditions for try shows some hnprovement. dismission were liot the most favorable. Reports from Ottawa, to BrAdstreeles , The Graphic says that from yester- rad's debate in the Commons it may say: While the industries here are bus - safely be inferrea that the Government ily engaged. there is still a quiet tone has finally abandoned the idea of hold- , to the movement of wbolesale lines.

MYSTERIOUS DEATH OF A FARM- ER'S YOUNG WIFE. Belleville, June S. -In the opinion of the Crown authorities all thu cu. emustances seem to point to thi con- clusion that Mrs. Harry Dimon.1, handsome young matron of the .rowu- ship of Elzevir, near (2u:sus-bore', wee. murdered. It has been cleat ly eetelo lished that her death was catts2(1 by strychnine. 'The husband of the young wtwin and her mother-in-law who were the only inmates of the divining Lades the dead woman both swore positively at the request that there Was no poi- son in the house to their knowledge, and that neither had ever purchased any. The husband further testified that his wire had never bought any, to his knowledge. This nogattved. abe hypothesis that the 'poison might have beenpurchased by one of them at some previous time,placed in the cupboard, and accidentaly taken by the unfor- tunate wife in mistake for salts. In direct contradiction to the story of Mrs. Wm. Diamond, the mother-in- law, is the testimony of W. J. Atkins, druggist, of Madoe, who swears that the woman purchased sufficient strych- nine from Isim to kill two persons. This purchase was made three years awe °It was on Feb. 28t1t of this year that the tragedy occurred. On the day previous Harry Diamond complained that ha was not feeling evell, and his young wife prepared a dose of salts for him. He declared that salts did not agree with him, and took some oil instead. The young wife said she would take the salts in the morning hem% and that she would place them iu the pantry over night. The mixed cup of salts prepared for the husband was left itt the pantry, and in the morning Mrs. Harry Dia- mond drank them. She ate a hearty breakfast afterwards, and about 8 o'clock was taken deathly sick. The husband assisted her to bed, and shortly afterwards she was attacked with convulsions. The young husband wanted to go for a doctor, but his wife was alarmed and would not let him out of her sight. Mrs. Diamond com- plained of having a bitter taste in her mouth. Between the convulsions the young wife told her husband she wanted to live, and that somebody raust have put something in the salts. Inspector John Murray is here on the case, and developments may be looked for in a few days. - r WIRE -PULLING RESENTED. Exciting Scene in the Montreal Confer- ence. Ottawa, June 12, -There was an excit- ing scene in the closing hours of the Montreal Methodist Conference tals morning. For an hour or more a dis- eussion-had been in progress on the re- solution recommending the organization of prayer circles and the devotion of effort towards the conversion of a mul- titude of souls in Canada. During this discussion Rev. Mr. Thomas of Lachate, said that, while he sympathized with .the resolution, it did not altogether meet the object sought.

Vancouver, B.C., June 12. --Sing, a CM - mum', has just been taken to D'Arcy Iseand, in the .Clulf of Georgia, from which place he can never escape alive. Sing is a leper. He is the third suf- fering from that disease to be taken front this city to the lazaretto, where no steamers, SIM the supply boat, call, where nobody lives but a few other af- flicted Chinamen; where the unhappy Celestial Inust simply wait and wait for a slow -coming death. Sing is but 21 and the disease is at present on him but a mild form, so that .he may linger for years, living a life in death. The Chinaman outwardly 'bears no marks that would arrest special atten- tion, The young man does not know what is the matter with him, and prob- ably considers that be is suffering great injustice in being sent to the lonely island in the gulf.

Liberal Offerings of Canadian Congregationalists. Annual Meeting of Union of Ontario and Quebec, First Step Taken Towards Union With United Brethern: A Toropto report: The fifty-second an- nual convention of the Congregational Union of Ontario and Quebec, wilich held its first seeeion at Bond Steeet Church yesterday morning, with 100 delegates registered, promises to mark an epoch ia the bistoey of that denomination in Can- ada. Two notable features stand forth in the proceedings of the day. First is the communication Rout the United Brethren of Canada, in which they an- nounce the formation of a committee to arrange for a union of the two bodice. Second is the congregational spirit that arises from the announeement that, the jubilee fund had reached =ell propor- tions as to nutke probable the freeing from debt of every tiongregational church .ill Canada. The United Brethren have 40 churches in Canada. 'Phis union will add greaLly bo the strength of both. To -morrow a committee will further consider the sug- gested union with the Methodist and Presbyterian Churches. Rev. Washington Gladdon, of Columbus, Ohio, in a letter to the union, said that the denomination in the United States wouhl watch the steps with great interest, as a union Is being contemplated there. A communication from the Anglican Church was received asking Inc co.opera- tion in securing systematic religious in- struction in public schools. The cam. mumeation eves referred to the Business Committee. Rev. Principal Hill suggested that two °aerie members be appointed to ar- range for the introduction of an act in the Ontario Legislature to permit the . incorporation of OilarellOS at a moderate expenditure.. - Applications for membership in the,&. union were made by Rev. H. .A. Carsor, B. A., Rev. Prof. Lyman,B. A., Rev. G. A. Sandell, and Rev. 3..1). Silcox. The - following Swedish churches :duo applied Inc ,adinieeion : Elm Oh tines , 11 igh ank 1 Park Bethel Church, and Wetaskawin Enunautiel Church. The Canadian Congregational elession- ary Society met during the mornine. The Treasurer's statement- ehowed Lisa •the receipts for the year totalled $3,022, the expenditure $18,458, leaving a helance ot $8,464. The inspiration of the session was the address of Rev. J. le Unsworth, 13. A., on Ilhe Jubilee Fund and After. 11e was followed with thegrentest interest as he told of the fathering of the Intel in Eng- land and of now the church undertook two years ago be Gleam every Canadian church of debt betore the end 01 11)03. At the committee meeting then they had made a maximum estimate of 4393,000; but last New Year's that amount had been exceeded by $44,000. Thirty-nine churches were then in debt, but to -day thIrty-seven had even" prospect of free- dom. Considerine that their total mem- bership, young, old and absent, was 0,- 500, this showing was extraordinary. It meant $23 for each family, and if the Presbyterians or Methodists in Canada undertooka similar fund they would havceeof to raiee a total of $5,000,000 cech to duplicate the work of the Congregation- alists. Two churches, it was true, had not responded, but the door of mercy was still 'open. (Laughter.) The Maritime Provinces were lumped itt.the estimate for $20,000. Truro alone gave $540, and St. Jobn, N. B., $2,900. The reading of the figures showing bete extraordinary response was greeted re- peatedly with the applause of the dele- gates. The fund will probably olmost reach, and possibly exceed, $200,000 by the end of 1905. ' t NO FURTHER OBSTRUCTION. • Canadian Lumbermen May Get Logs Past St. John River Boom. t.
