Jubilee Review. The great Jubilee review of troops took place at Aldershot on July 2nd, Queen's weather prevailing. The town of Alder. shot was gaily decorated wish flags and festoons of flowers. Crowds of people flocked towards the camp from very early morning. Queen Victoria arrived at Marlborough shortly before 4 o'clock and was received by the Commander•in- Chief, Lord Wolseley ; the idjutant- Beneral, Sir Iledvere Buller ; the Quer- termastt-r.General, Sir Evelyn IVood, and a brilliant staff. From the railroad station to the saluting point on Lafanne Plain, three miles distant, the route was gay with decorations including arobes with mottoes of welcome at different points, The Duke of Connaught, corn. mandleg the military diatriet, was fn supreme command of the troops, who numbered 2.0,000 men, included all the colonial forces, a division of cavalry, artillery and engineers, and four divis• ions of infantry. In the march past the colonial troops had the lead and were headed by Lord Roberts of Kandahar at the bead of the Canadian Mounted Police. The Prince of Wales led the Tenth Hussars past the saluting point. Accompanying Queen'Victoria were the Princess of Wales, Princess 'Victoria of Wales, the Duke and Duchess of York, Prince and Princess Charles, of Den- mark, all the colonial Premiers and a brilliant throng of titled spectators. The march past was by squadrons, bat. teriee and donble companies. The firing of the royal salute closed the ceremony. The colonial troops lined the route fol. lowed by the Quee0 after leaving the saluting point. The heat was intense and the crowd present was entomous. The Queen was greeted with the great- est enthusiasm, On arriving at the saluting point her lllajeety'e carriage drew up lin front of those occupied by the Princess of Wales and the Duobess of Connaught. The royal party was sur- rounded by a glittering crowd of attaches, and the members of the differentl royal femilies now in England. The Prince of Wales wore the uniform of his regi. ment, the Tenth Hussars, to which the late Deka of Clarence, his aon, belonged. The Duke of Cambridge wore the oniform of a field marshal, and the Duke of York wore a Hussar uniform. The Queen seemed mucic interested in the march past, and smiled as the Prince of Wales, the Dunce of York and the Duke of Cambridge led their regiments past her. Her Majesty sat still until the end and departed amid a roar of cheers. WIDS TIKES. One way to help the roads is to use wide tires on the wagon wheels. In many cities lorries used for carrying heavy loads must have tires from three to four inches wide, according to the diameter of the wheel, Si feet or lees. This law does not apply to farmers' wagons. Yet wide tires are even of more importance on country than city roads, and the farming community desirous of improving the roads, or at least injuring then as little 8.0 'possible, ought to have no hesitation in adopting them, In this matter our republican neighbors seem to have the start of us. - The Legislatures of New York, Michigan, Ohio, Esntuoky, Pennsylvania, Vermont, Indiana, and Massadhusette have all taken notion, either to require or encourage the use of wide tires in rural districts. In Ohio, Indiana and Vermont penalties are at. tached • to the enactments prescribing their use, while in New York and some of the other states a tax rebate is previd. adopt than. The width of the tire pre. seabed varies according to the load a wagon is designed to carry, generally amounting to from three to seven or eight Malice, In Massaehnsetts all tenpins are exetnpt from vehicle tax which have from three-inch tires up. wards.

It was a serious accusation made against the lads, that of indecently assaulting a little 11•year•old girl, Tena Iiirvao, the daughter of a w001011 well known in the neighborhood.

Nothwithstandiug all that has been said about the loss it 1vi11 be to the fanner and the miller for allowing rye to grow 10 their wheat fields, it seems that few have taken heed of the warning. If the rye is not pulled from the fields it will I undoubtedly depre0iate the value of wheat. The millers will not buy flat all, as it is impossible to make it into first- ! class flour, and the consequences will be I that the wheat will only be goad for feed. Jas. Goldie, who has beau through the country exteusively taking steels of the wheat crops, says that in some places in Norwich and South, the fields will give a yield of about half a peck of rye to a bushel of wheat. This is no good to the miller, he cannot buy it, as it is no good to him, and the farmer willhave to use it for feed. For the mutual benefit of farmer and miller the rye ebould be pull- ed out. It should have been pulled out h headed, before thew ant ut itis nob too b late yet to do a great deal in this direc- tion. Of course' it will take a little time and the wheat will be trampled down a little, but this will far more than aom- peneate by the increased price of the cereal. Intelligent farmers will no doubt pay attention bo this important matter. iiOW L12ti011 nuns BUSINESS. Men spend each year for intoxicating drinks enough money to bring prosperity to every branch of houest industry. The more than one billion dollars spent last year for liquor did no poeeibl0 good to those who drank the stuff, but it did pre- vent them from purchasing food, cloth- ing, furniture, boots and oboes, oarpets and the hundreds of other articles can. sidered necessary to comfortable living. These men and their families bought only enough food and clothing, and that of the poorest land, to eke out a miser. able existence. Had they spent this vast sum for those articles needed in their homes does anyone doubt what would have resulted ? They, themselves, lvonld have been mach happier, batter oitizeus, better parents, while the money would have given employment to haudreds of thousands and brought prosperity to all except those engaged in the damnable business of malting and selling liquor, Why, then, should not every manufac- turer, ovary merchant, every producer, be ed with a view to encenr1.ging farmers to interested in the liquor issue? Can they not see that the use of liquor impoverish. ea then: customers and prevents them from pnrohasing their goods 7 They should Unite to protect their customers from the ravages of this monster if from no other reason than that of self -protan. tion.

It was in a wrathful mood that Mrs, Iiieven left the court bolding her child's band, but ill lack awaited her on the stairs, for there Constable McKay, of Embro, placed her under arrest.
