young that kissing was wicked
because Christ was betrayed by a

It took twenty-eight men two
weeks, working night and day, to
hang the Verestchagin war
pictures in the American Art
Galleries. The great size of the
'canvases made the trouble. There
is one twenty by twenty-eight

The pictures are only for exhibi-

The oldest female professional
thief in the country is May Fitz-
gerald, now in the Tombs at New
York, and eighty years of age.
She has spent the greater portion
of the last sixty years in prison.
She was arrested one day last
week for picking pockets, and
made a desperate fight for liberty.
Sho began her wicked 3areer at
eleven years of age.
Some distinctive quality has al-
ways been associated in the public
mind with the lady/of the White
House. With Mrs Grant it was
interest in national affairs; with
Mrs Bayes, Temperance ; with
Mrs Garfield, literary tastes' with
Mrs Cleveland, beauty, and with
Mrs. Harrison it promises to be
domesticity. Nearly all the items
about her tell • of her doing her
own marketing and praise her„

Cape Vincent is teeming with
romance' those days. A young.
doctor was taken suddenly ill and
was removed to the residence of a
lady friend to whom he had been
paying attention. His condition
grew • alarming and a physician
was summoned, who in turn sum-
moned the parents. of the young
man. While the physician was
in search of some one to go after
the parents, the young man sent
for the girl and had the Gordian
knot tied., The patient is now
about the streets.
One of the sights of the day,
says Tho New York ii$un, is the
spectacle of Edwin . Booth and
Lawrence Barrett, the most suc-
cossful actors ' the world • has
known, walking sidoby side down
Broadway after each night's per-
formance. Th°ey always did look
somewhat alike with their hats
on, and now they dress alike.
Each wears a•high, shiny beaver
and a long ulster ofsoft dark cloth
reaching to his heels and trimmed
with astrachan down the front
and around the collar.
Mr Howard Vincent asked in
the English House of Commons
on Monday night whether the
Government, had observed the
• movement for a commercial un-
ion between the United States and
Canada, and whether, seeing that
the Dominion Parliament rather
favored commercial union with
the mother land, the Govornntert
would seek to elicit the opinion of
the colonies $f a commercial un-
derstanding between the different
parts of the Empire. Mr W. 1I.
Smith replied that the (fovern-
mert were quite aware of the
progress of events, hut did not
conslucr that any advantagewould
follow the adoption frf AL1 Vin•
cent's suggestion under present
eireunstances.

President Cleveland's last an-
nual message to Congress will
probably be ono of the most for-
cible of all his strong State papers.
It will take no backward step on
the great question of tariff reduc-
tion, and will probably speak out
plainly in opposition to the estab-
lishment of -great monopolies and
the massing of great fortunes by
aid of federal statutes. It is gen-
erally believed that he will not
yield one jot from his position be-
fore the campaign. He will insist
that the reduction that must be
made should come off the tax on
the raw material and necessaries
of life.

Prof.•Frcam, in a recent conl-

air -:to trio origin of 1''Sfe wheat.
The popular idea concerning its
name with the county of Fife,
Scotland. Its origin, indeed, was
Scottish, and was brought about
in a very simple way. A family
named 1''yfe settled, in 1837, be-
tween Port HIope and Uobourg, in
Ontario, and while there received
a letter from at friend in Scotiond,
containing a few grains of (ihirke
wheat taken from a vessel that
had arrived from the Bled: Sea,
and was discharging her cargo at
Glasgow. - The grains were sown,
the seed was saved, and the culti-
vation was continued from year
to year till a sufficient quantity
was obtained to carry off the first
prize for spring wheat at tho Pro-
vincial Exhibition at Uobourg;.
The grain was improved by its
cultivation in Ontario, and has
still further advanced in quality
in its near approach to the north-
ern limits of the cultivation of
whcfi in Manitoba.

his life in the G. T. R. yard, Strat-
ford, last week. Ile was standing
on the brake board and fell be-

His clothes were badly torn, but
beyond that ho was none the worse
for his terrible experience on the
rail.

out his brains on the railroad ties.
Failing.in this ho cut his throat
with a jackknife and walked with

and a stream of blood pouring
from his throat. Hearing a train
approach, be staggered toward the
track, but fell before he reached
it. Ho succeeded, however, in
dragging himself near enough to
place his neck upon the rail in
time to have his head cut off. He
was about 19 years old, and is
supposed to have come from Con-
cord, O.

Five years before the war
Michael Gorman was sent to Sing
Sing prison in New York. There
he stayed until the other day,
when he was pardoned out and
returned to that city a free man.
This incident has frequently boon
used in novels, but the imagina-
tion fails to depict what ho really
thought since his incarceration.
Great deeds had been accomplish-
ed, cities had arisen, a war •had
been fought and won, and even the
language of the streets had chang-
ed since the day; a third of a cen-
tury ago, that he had been taken
away to prison and shut out from
the world ho had known. Friends
who had known him in the old
days wore all dead. As they
took him upon tbo Brooklyn
bridge and showed him the city
shining in the gaslight beneath,
he grew dizzy and bogged, in
faltering voice to bo led away
where ho could spend the end of
his life in peace and retirement.

was to much for him. Ile could

ThoAmeriean Protective league

fessed, altogether without reason.
The League, last_ year, offered a
prize of two `hundred and fifty
dollars for an essay in defence of
the' doctrines of protection.. Air
Hening, then a member of the son-
icr class of his. college, studied np
Henry Caroy.ancl wrote a pamph-
let'ent-itled ;"Tho advantages of
a Protective Tariff to the Labor
and Industries of the' United
States," which won the prize.
While studying for the solo pur-
pose of winning the dollars of the
Protectionists, Mr Honing, it
appears, became really interested
in :,he study of political economy,
and he went thoroughly into the
whole subject. The result in his
case was similar to that. in the
case of Mr Wells, the greatA.mer-
iean eeononiist-Ile became Ali

wrote a second pamphlet setting
forth his more )nature convictions

tidote. A search after the truth
