British ministry ever resigned after a

e Q '
Aside front€the undoubted qualifications
of these gentlemen for such a work, it is
gratifying to note tint the Government
(las made the commission strictly non-
partisan. This is a favorable onion for
the success of the new undertaking, and
shows that the Government has no de-
sire to, snake this large expenditure of
stoney serve party ends. The road is
to be a bnsiness. not a political, pro-
position. Other Govermne,tt railroads
have not always becu the same. -Loudon

British Territory in South Africa.
The close of the war in Smelt Africa
gave Great Britain an uudisputed title
to 167,4G5 square miles of new territory,
au area of 19,553 square miles greater
than twice that of Manitoba. Through.
out Africa the British holdings aud
"spgeres" now aggregate more than
300,000,000 square miles and exceed the
area of the United States. Of other
European nations'. France has claims as
vast, but some 2,000,000 square miles of
her African territory are in the Desert
of Sahara, and her sovereignity over
this sandy waste is poorly established.
Germany and Portugal have each about
900,000 square miles, and so has Bel-
gium, if the Congo State be marked off
that country. Spanish Africa consists
of some 252,000 square miles; Italian
Afriea of 88,000 square miles, Tripoli,
-which is tisbutary to Turkey, comes
near to 400,000 square miles- The Brit-
ish territory in Africa includes a greater
area of that eontiueut which is habitable
for white men than is held by any other
power, and includes also the greatest
diamond and gold regions in the world.
Aged Farther Swindled.
Toronto, Jnly 9. --One of the most
heartless of recent "confidence" swind-
les has just come to Light, involving the
loss of the savings of a lifetime. Silas
Toole, the victim, is au old aud respected
farmer of Whitclturch township, York
county, A week ago he was visited at
his farm by a couple of well-dressed
city -looking mon, who said they were
nephews of Sir Win. Mulook, the post-
master -general, and M. P, for North
York. They were looking around for
farms for investment, and Toole's farm
bad so favorably impressed them that
they were willing to pay $10,000 for it.
A bargaiu was struck, and the young
men said they would return in a few
days to make the transfer. They asked
that iu the meantime Toole keep careful
watch over a satchell they would leave
with him containing the purchase money.
Toole said he would, and after showing
hitu what looked like a large roll of hills
they locked the bag 'and handed it over
to him. Late the same day they called
again, and said they had made a bargain
to buy the farm of Joshua Wilson near
-
by for ,a,000, They had i,ot the price
with them, however, and asked Toole to
advance the stoney till they got back to
the city.
The poor old man; tbinkiug be had
$10,000 of their money in his keeping,
actually went to Newmarket, drew out
$5,000, and handed the money over to
the rogues. Three days ago, hearing
nothing from them, he opened the sat-
chel left in his care, and found that he
had been swindle& out of a lifetime's
savings. He cameo the city today and
gave Inspector Start: a description of the
men. It has afforded no clue to their
identity.
Foreign Trade.
In the ten months of the current fiscal
year Canada imported $30,328,287 worth
Of goods from Britain and exported
$96,181, i 55 to that country ; imported
$96,051,136 from the United. States and
exported $55,859,133 to that country;
total imports being $1G2,508.i08 and ex-
ports $171,013,251. Oar exports to
Britain are almost exactly equal to one
imports from the United States. What
are we going to do about it ? We bay
from the United States because that
country has for sale the thiugs we want.
Quautities, qualities and prices , are
equal we would much prefer to bay
from the people who buy from us, but
" there is no sentiment in business."

Vet River, S. A. O. R. 0., 1.5, '02.
Dear Tom., -You will no doubt be
surprised to hear front ate. I noticed in.
my diary a lot of uatnes I promised to
write to, so I saw yours. Well, Tom,
this fighting business is a great thiug•
You are ou the move all the time.
When I first cante.out here I aoted as a
scout, and I did very well at that, so
well that I was promoted to be a corp-
oral. Scouting out here is one of the
hardest jobs and dangerous as there is.
Sometimes we would be out scout -
lug a large kopje, we would not see a
Dutchman, but just as we were mount-
ing our horses we would get a volley in-
to us. I have had 4 horses shot under
me and hit in the leg once. When I
was hit we were fightitIA in the dark
The Boers were in a garden, ororchard,
you would say, and we charged the gar-
den. There were genie 25 Boors ; we
were only 14 iueu, two squads. We went
iuto the garden en the run, firing as we
went. We nad the Boers so excited
they could not get on their horses and
some of their horses ran away, but all
the same they gave us a very warm re-
ception while it lasted. I had Illy borse
shot iu six places, so I got down behiud
it aud started the firing aud I tell you. I
did fire. We could pot sen a Boer, so we
rested for a minute or so, and the Boers
did not know what position we Were in.
One Boer came so close to ate that I
could have pulled his whiskers, hat he
did not stand long fgr he got it where
the chicken got tiie fixe by one of our
fight lasted went -

fellows. 6 1
minutes, but it seemed like a week to
me. That's what it is to be a scout.
The first time I was ont ou patrol in the
country it was when we were camped at
Paardeburg, the place whore Orouje
was captured. I was sent out on this.
patrol. It was pitch dark, and we were
close to the river. I was nearest to it
when one of our fellows lit a, cigarette
and just as he did we got a volley from
Boers down in the river. Well, clown
cause my horse, me with it. It was my
first time under fire and I was excited.
I did not know if I was shot myself or
not. One shot went under the seat of
my saddle. •Paardeberg is the place
where the 1st contingent made a name
for our country, the only country on
earth. I have beeu.,in the trenches, the
trenches, the Cauadiaus dub, also the
ones the Boers had., Tho Canadians had

100 yards, and right m the open and

fixed up the boys' graves that were
there. The Boers hate.the Cendians.
They say they would sooner face the
Englishmeu. One o the worst exper-
iences I had was being captured by Do
:Wet. Four of us were sent out seven
miles to see which nay the Boers went
in the morning. We did no know De
Wet was so close. We went out about
7 miles and we saw three Boers coming,
so we put our horses under a little
bridge aud along they came ou the can-
ter. Well, Tom, we killed the three,
and then there came along nearly 1,500
or more under De Wet. It was very
dark and the Boers could not see us, but
when they were going over the bridge
my horse started her fancy work, jump
ing around. The Boers heard us, so down
come 1,500 men aud'catch ns. It was
impossible for us to get away, so along
we had to go. They made us walk
along side of them for six miles. They
took all our clothes from us, and we had
a kafr boy with us and they also took
what little he had on him. I had a bad
cold and I pleaded with one of the Boers
to let me have my shirt. He did net
give me my own but gave me the
kaffir's. Well, I just put it on and
went to sleep. When we woke they
gave us some coffee and thea let es go,
saying that if they ever captured us
again they would shoot us. We had to
walk 12 miles to our camp without a
thing on ns. We are still in touch with
DeLary and Kemp. They gave us a
a hard knock three weeks ago. We
lost 27 killed and wounded, but what is
that, as an English officer said when we
A Clue That Failed.
Deductions in the manner of Sherlock
Holmes do not always work out success-
fully. They did not in a case reported
by the Washington Post. A group of
reporters were talking together, and one
of them, who liked to play the amateur
detective, devoted part of his time to
watching a man standiug some distance
away.
"That man used to be in the army,"
ho said.
"How do you know?"
"See how he puts his hand into his
trousers pockets. He lifts up the side of
his coat -look! ht's doing it now -in-
stead of pushing the coat back as' we do.
He acquired the habit from wearing a
fatigue coat in the army. A fatigue coat,
you know, is cat square about the body.

The Hartney, Man., Star tells of a

occupied a scrub section, and was the
unfortunate possessor of a wooden leg.
Hearing a noise one morning he looked
out and discovered a. large bear carry-
ing off one of his hogs. Seizing a gun
the man followed the beast amongst the
bushes and gave 1i to a charge of shot
about the ears. The bear resented. the
iusnit, and charged his assailant who,
not knowing what else to do, threw him-
self ort his back and thrust bis wooden
leg iu the bear's falee. The brute seized
the leg and counne'ced to haul the man
through amongst the bushes, but a
small tree getting between the legs of
the prostrate hunter the strap broke, aud
the bear carried off the leg, evidently
thinking that he lied pulled the man to
pieces, aud that if be was all like the
sample he was not worth eating.

IT PAYS
TO ADVERTISE
IN THE
TIMES
A Valuable Process
By Which Potatoes May be Dried
and Flaked for Shipping
(Stratford Beacon.)
tWith the secret of a. valuable pro-
cess, and several mntlliynatres to back
him, Mr, Frannk Bunyan, Ontario -et.,
will shortly be heard of in the com-
mereial world. IIIc has discovered a
process by which potatoes can be
ri c
d e i and converted into u, flaky form
m
much resembling .rolled oatmeal. This
is calculated to obviate ,a great deal,
of the expense and difficulty which
is new experienced in shipping, the
bulk of the potatoes, being reduced
four-fifths. Another advantage is
that the climate will not affect them
in the least, and they can be keptfar
an. indefinite length of time.
Mr. Bunyan received his first cue
to the process during last winter,
and after working assiduously for n
considcrablat time wars eventually
crowned with succe.si. IIs realized
that his discovery was ono which if
practuible on a lenge. scale, would be
of world-wide value, and he lost
no time- in having it pr'e'ected by pat-
ettts, .both in; Canada and United
States
A temple of potatoes; in the pre-
pared form was taken. by Ma Bunyan
to several Amerleen capitalists, who
did not .itesitaee to offer their sup-
po'rt.
Mr. Banyan left en Monday for De-
troit, near which plass, he hopes to
locate a factory. If the enterprise is
successful it is proposed to build sen -
era. other 'factories, a couple of which
may be located on this{ side of the
line. t , 1 t 1
Mr. Bunyan looks for great things
from, his discovery, and from present
indications lie is certainly warranted
itt doing so.
A Columbus, Ohio, pastor called on
one of his parishioners, whose six-
year old boy is a bright yongster.
Freddie had previously heard his moth-
er say that the pastor was very succeess-
ful in saving souls. During a pans° in
the conversation Fredde, who was sitt-
ing on the pastor's knee : " Do you save
souls ?" " Yes, Freddie," replied the
cloth. " Will yon tell me, " went on
Freddie seriously, " how !natty souls
you got saved up?"
There is a noted difference
