Chairman Dominion Railway Board --Poverty in

of Bygone Days.
Hon, V'. J. Hanna. Provinvial Secretary, f
18 again in the ihne light in councetton
with the Cliattruanahip ot the Domiuion
Railway Board. It is eurious to note b..oer
mYI
any positions Mr. BAna's natio AAA
been atsociated with during the past live
vearti. iler a long time there was a ru-
mor reeurring abeet once a erionth that
he 8'4Irs goitig into Dominion politice. Then
September, 1911, enme and passed, and it
was Mr. Coehrene who won. In connec-
t ion with tltis ineident there is an inter-
e sting story, that Mr. Hanna eould have
been the eatupaign organizer for Ontario
lust as he wee iu 1903, 111111 probably sub-
tequeutly a Dominion Cabinet Minister,
but. that he gueseed wrong as to the pro-
bable result. But that may be Just a
Yarn. Then, there have been pereistent
rumors that Mr. Foy would resign and
that Mr. lia•nna worth/ be the next Attor-i
ney-Getteral. And it has beets generally
underrtood that as inatters stood he was
the logivel sueeeeeor o Sir ;lames Whit-
ney. Al ono time he was offered the po-
sition of C-orporetion Counsel of Toronto
at n lett salary, n po,itiop which after-
wardwent to Mr. Drayton, and in Hoe
cone -retitle it, was intereeting to see the
other day an interview with Mr. Drayton.
in whieh he told of having declined the
Railway Board Chairmanship. But mean-
time, Mr. Hanna hes stayed on year after
year as Provinelai Secretary.
PLAYED WITH TOE WAIFS.
Mr. Ilanee'e heartiness and good humor
are infeetioes. Ile loves children.One
day a group of little waifs were waiting
at the Parliament buildings to see some
official. Mr. Hauna Corralled them, took
them into his luxurione private office, te
whith xni11iona1rs sontethnes impatiently
wait admittance, and had a half-hour's
rood play with them.
As to his mental capacity, it ie doubt-
ful if hie preseet position has revealed his
real worth to the public. continueue
linking up of his name with some new
Positiee hag no doubt reflected a popular
notion flint he wee too big, a taan for the
vositimi of Provincial Secretary.

Instead of abolishing shims they have
simply shifted their location.
Now a company of public-spirited citi-
zees has been organized to lay out a few
acres of moderate -priced Toronto laud in
email homes of model design and cen-
etruetion for poor people. It is to be
hoped they will aehieve then. purpoee.
Certain/y there is need of some relief
for overcrowding. Within the last few
daye almost indiseribable conditions havo
been diecovered in several sections of the
city. In one house of ten rooms ten fam-
ilies were found to be living. In ,another
house of moderate eve 77 lodgers were
found. And, of eouree, overcrowding la
nearly always aceompanied by eocial
vices; for example. in one small house etre
woman was found living with twenty
men. In nearly all these and similar cases
the men are foreigners, who left condi-
tions in EuroPe Probably woree than those
whieli thew are now.
PASBLNG 010 GOVERNMENT HODSE.
The beautiful old grounds of Govern-
ment Reuse at the corner of Simeon and
Xing etreete are no more, and the last
vestige of the house itself will soon have
dieappeared. A building -wrecker paid
32,300 for the privilege ef tearing the
place down. The grounds have been
plonghed 110 and levelled: a beautiful ra.-
Tine, where a ereek rippled in the old days
before all Toronto's creeks were turned
into etewers, has disappeared. The beatt-
Niel old elms have been turned 10.10 cord-
wood, and the whole senile varies not at
all from that which may be seen any-
where that a railway is putting- in new
sidings. The building dated only from
1874: before that its site was a favorite
Picnicking ground 'out in the country,"
foe the eity of that date lay to the east.

Civil Service Commission's An-
nouncement.
A despathh from Ottawa, says:
Consternation ,;has been, created in
the civil service her by the action
of the Civil Service Commission,
which has ruled that pending a, de-
nite regulafion of the Cabinet, to
which the matter has been referred,
no official of 65 years or up-
wards shall be eligible for promo-
tion. In tale meantime the promo-
tion of nearly a dozen capable men
has been held up and rnany others
who have reached the age limit, are
on the anxious seat. The statutes"
of 1870 contain a, minute laying
down an age limit of 60 years, but
this Nis been a dead letter for
years. Commissioner Shortt, how-
ever, says the present action of the
Commission is not based on this, but
on the practice in Great Britain and
the United States. The Commission
has wide discretionary powers in a
matter of this kind. Officials
throughout the country are affected.

The Optophone Is the Invention of
Fournier D'Albc.
A despatch from London says: A
blind man stood in the middle of a
large room at the Optical Confer
ence Exhibition in London on 'Wed-
nesday and told, without using the
sense of touch, how many windows
were in -the room, and how many
persons were ,between himself and
the wall. He did it by "hearing,"
light and shade. The medium of the
seeming miracle was the optophone,
a wonderful invention of Mr. Four-
nier D'Albe, the well-known scien-
tist and Celtic scholar. The opto-
phone, makes light and darkness
audible. The invention is based on
the metal selenium's well-known
property of being affected by light.
Mr. Fournier D'Albe contrives to
make the effect of light on the pas-
sage of electric currents through
selenium appreciable in a telephone
receiver, and clock work mechanism
can be adjusted so that darkness
is audible and bright light, silent,
or vice versa. The appa,ratus is
contained in an oblong box about 26
inches long and eight inches deep.
