The city bar improved greatly during
the year and was looking bright and
busy. Lumbering, however. Is com-
paratively dull and only git10 'lecke"
have been sent into the woods in place
.1 the 2,1110 rent last year. The real
estate offices, too, are greatly les-
sened, for here, w elsewhere, specula-
tion is at a standstill fur the titer.
However, many fine new reeidencee
end businees bluetit, give ample evi-
dence of the solid prosperity of the
bplace and of the conftdeuce which ice
usiness people have in the future.

The carr were poorly heated and
ellen Regina waw reached 1 eagerly

result is a very ugly chimney dis-

At Vancouver.
We reached Vancouver about noon
on Sunday, December SIth. The kind
of weather which had prevailed here
was quite evident in the green (awns
and muddy streets. My Impressions
of the city, which now claims about
75,0W population, were very favor-
able, but the titmouse Princess Vic-
toria was et her wharf and I was soon
aboard for the last stags. of my
journey.
On to Victoria.
From Vancouver to Victoria is a
trip of eighty miler which takes the
Pourers about fire hours, though In
rummer she is said to do it in four.
It is a pleasant journey. After the
frost and snow of the prairie it was
simply a reveiatiuu to see the Mrlande
broking fresh and green, with abet-
lutely no sign of winter except on
those distant perks. Toe air was

wonderful climate of this place. There
is 'rally no winter worthy of the

A Little Joke Between Them.
An American on a 'hilt to bond,,
took a'bus to the City every morning.
where he had Moines* with an Anglo
Americen firm. He always sat h•
hind the driver. On the first journey
he noticed that on arriving at a per
tain corner the driver took out his big
,liter watch, dangled it to and fro a
few timed, and winked jovially at an
indivld'ual who stood at the door of a
shop.
"Why do you do that?" the Ameri-
can &eked.
"Well," said the delver, taking hie
jIpe from bill mouth. "teat'* a little

York Loan Affairs,
Four classes ot claimants againn'
the tweets of the York County f.oaq
et Savings Company were disposed of
last week in , judgment given by
George Kappele, the official referee.
These claims total about,0.34,1t%).82.
and leave only four other special
claims to be adjudged. The liquidator
has discovered in the yrocese of going
over the claims that they have shrunk
about $5011,1100 throdgh the removal
of many duplications. thus leaving
1,3,5(e),00J to be settled out of the;
York Loan's assets instead of S4,0U1,-
000, as estimated. The effect of Mr.
Keppele's judgment is to enhance
the value of the claims made by the
general body of shareholders by refus-
ing to consider epecikl claimant& as
having any prior CLAIM upon the con-
cern'. assets.
New Star Line Steamer.
A new 230 -foot passenger and
freight boat, specially designed for
the Detroit river service. will be built
by the 1Vhite Star Line. General
manager 13. W. 1'rrker, of the steam
ship company, is himself preparing
the design, and the vessel (vill be
unique in several features. the pur-
pose tieing to combine the quick -load-
ing freight facilities of a ferryboat
with those of it passenger steamer.
Mr. Parker estimates that it will take
a year to complete the plans and that
she wilrle completed in 11010, ready

Tan Months' Msysnue.
The tnancial'stntemrnt of the Dom-
inion for the month of January end
fur the first ten months of the current
fiscal year shows an increase of 3384,-
337 in the total revenue for the last
month, as compared with January,
1907, and an increase of 39.374.542 for
the ten months. The total expendi-
ture on consolidated fund recount for
the ten months was $56.332,534, an in-
crease of 310,860,229. Of this increase
32,033.944 is chargeable to the January
figures for payment of subsidy in-
creases to the provinces. amounting
to 31,500,000. and of interest charges
on the public debt, totalling 32.623,-
459.
2.623;459. both falling due last month. For
the ten months the surplus of revenue
over expenditure on consolidated fund
account amounted to 324,691,734. The
total expenditure on capital account.
as entered on the books of the Fin-
ance Department up to Jan. 31, was
322,246.499. of Which 817.446.975 was
chargeable to Public Works, Railways
and Canals. The National Transcon-
tinental Railway is, of course, respons-
ible for much of this amount.
Normal Schools Soon te Open.
'The normal schools which are being
built at North Bay, Hamilton, Peter-
boro and Strafford will shortly be
opened. The contractors have practi-
cally completed their work. For en-
trance into these institutions. the
obligatory subjects at the July exam-
inations have been reduced from ten
to seven. A hither standard, however,
will be exerted.
The Minister of Education lays
great stress on the personalty of the
teacher, and he hopes that the suc-
revs of the scheme which he has in-
augurated, will justify him in extend-
ing` it still further in both high and
public schools. Toronto University
hag also adopted new regulations along
these lines.
