Bilingual Debate Causes an Amusing Scene In House of Oornmons. An amusing epistle 111 coiniectien with the famous fifty-seven hour ses- sion carried on by the Opposition in the House of 'Commons last spring convulsed Ottawa at the time but fail- ed to attract general attention.' It was the habit of the French members, when 431 English-speaking representa- tive had the floor, to rise to a point of order and gravely ask a question in French, knowing full well that the member who had the floor could -not understand what was being asked of him. This, of course, was done with the sole purpose of confusing the ora - 'tor. One of the Western members, who is famous for his ability to man- gle the King's English, had the. torn one day and was made an especial target for this kind of interruption, to his great annoyance. Finally, he broke forth into open censure of the Leerier supporters for using their privilege of- speaking their own toliene to such ,an, end, All the while Mr. John Tolmie, the meme)er for Bruce, .had .been sending out pages to the library for diction- aries. When the westerner sat down • Mr. Tolude was promptlyon his feet, and commenced by saying that he made enquiries of his French col- leagues as to What language the hon- orable member had himself been speaking, and had been assured that at was noteFrench. The rules of the House -mentioned only French and English asi, languages that ,could be used in debate. He could testifythat the honorable member had not been speaking English, for he had searched the dictionaries in vain for -some of the expressions they had heard. He could only assume that the .gentleman had been speaking in .his native ton- gue, whatever that Might, be, and he demanded that privilege for 'himself. Mr. Tolmie then regaled the House With a five minute speechin the fir - lest kind of Gaelic. • They're C-oming Home. • • During the pest summer a netice- able feature in the industrial life of Noy& Scotia has been the return to ' their Nova Seotian homes of many 'of the young men and women who had gone to the 'United States during the past four years in 'search of erre Pl°0YnAle °Ix. press' train 'from. -B-oston, which ordinarily hasonlyeight cars, arrived one day recently with seven- teen cars, and though" many tourists wore on board, the bulk of'the passen- gers were natives of Nova Scotia, who • had (Welded- on account of the hard tirnes in the Ifnited States to come back home and work on the farinst As the problem of farm labor has heonTather a serious one here during, the pail, few years this movez-nerit is a very welcome one to all farm owna ers, end is one that Shoeld materially help in developing the Agricultural re- sources • of this province during the 'next few years. • :gets First Choice. . • The first- homestead regigtered at • the Dominion Land °Aloe a few days ego,. when allthe vticanie homesteads 117.",eitcba ',were threivn open for ontr,V..weS taken • by Jacob Jacob- son of Rat River, who is...congratulat- irig 'himself on the nos-sbssion of at quarter -section ,b1 first-class farm • hinds, or; as he locks 'at it, a present oi $1,500. • The gift eaufe after an all- nghtWait at the office.

Although much has Irene 'tante time been written about the Maure- tania, comparatively few • can grasp the significant part which electricity plays in the ship. Apart from the 70,000 horse -power of the turbines 'Which propel the ship through the water, the electrical power,which is supplied by four generators, repre-, 'lents an additional 2,144 horse -power. • 'Electricity is used not only.- for illuminating the ship at night, but for the multitude of other purposes, such are operating the lifts, of which there are two for passengers' use, eight for baggage and mails, and two smaller ones in theepantries. Elec- trically -driven mines and Avirielies are also provided, and 6,300 electric lamps give the enormous total of-oveie100,000 candle-power. For heating the first-class quarters sixty eleettia radiators have been fitted, to say nothing of some forty-three heaters in the bath-rooma. In the kitchens one range alone has, a frontage of about 60 feet, and . hicludis a roaster with (CM; vertical spits rotatedby nn eleetric motor.

Sir Louis %lett° Says. U. S. Viee-Presla dont Is Not 'to Be Blamed. The widely -published criticism of Mr. Fairbanks' conduct at Quebec during the visit a the Prince of Wales has called out a vigorous pro- test from Lieutenant -Governor Jette. A prominent English werean, said to belong to the Canadian °Mein], family, has beon given as the Author of, the following paragraph in several American and Canadian papers: "Whet business was it of Mr. Fair- banks ta stand ahead of Sir Louis jeate, the governor of the province at .the garden party in honor of the prince, to receive the guests? Pure cheek, I call it." • The Governor's secretary' piiblisheS a letter saying that his honor .cannot let the assertion nese without con- tradiction, and. adds the following statement: "It is not true that the vice-presi- dent .stoeo'd. ahead of Sir Louis Jetta at the garden party at Spencerwood. The Lieutenant -Governor, through courtesy to tbe vice-president, invit- ed him and Mrs. Fairbanks to re- ceive the invited guests with himself and Lady' Sotto and from the sanie motive of doing honor to the occasion tlie vice-president end Mrs. Fairbanks consented to do so. . "When His .Royal Highness smile - ed, both Sir Louis and Lady Jett() had . to go and receive ham at' the .door, so that vice-president and, Mrs. Fair- banks were left alone to shake hands with. the incoming guests who were introdueed to them by myself in the • usual way, and, as above stated, the special request of the hosts them- selves.
