DONNGIIIAN.
One of the busiest little men of

Affairs, He has been explaining,

died out. He, of course, was a prominent
figure in the South African war, being in
command of the first Canadian contingent
thatwent to the front in 1899. He was
always a, strict disciplinarian and did a
great .deal for the morale of the Canadian
Militia. Ile is succeeded at Ottawa by.
Major General Cotton, who had been in
command in Toronto for several years and
who is now succeeded by brigadier Gen-
eral Lessard.
A-Frenoh-0anadian Qeneral.
A shift among the higher officers of the
Canadian Militia, which hasjust gone
into effect, brings to the head of the force
at Toronto Brigadier•General Francoie
Louie Lessard. It is curious that the Po-
sition in this ultra Protestant, ultra, Eng-
lish centre should bo given to a French-
Canadian,. for General Lessard is decid-
edly French in appearance, manner, and
mend speech. Though reversing the uor-
der of French -Scottish inter.-marryingin
the province of Quebec, hie mother being
of Scottish birth, while his father was a
French-Canadian, General Leesard's .na-
tive tongue is the French and he speaks
English with a decided accent.
General Lessard has. made a good repu-
tation aa a soldier, He entered the mili-
tia thirty-four years ago, when he was
but 18 years old. He saw hie first service
in the North-West. Rebellion of 1885 and
came into prominence during the South
African War, where he commanded the
Royal Canadian Dragoons. He was pro -
sent at the relief of Kimberley and saw
much service in the field- For his con-
duct he received a Queen's Medal with
five clasps.
While not a man of wealth, General
Lessard, like many Military men, is
prominent eogially. Like many olncers
who served in South Africa, his pay wile
allowed to accumulate and amounted to
a tidy sum at the conclusion of the war.
Other changes include the retirement of
Major General W. D. Otter, C.B., Chief of
Staff, who retires from the militia after
over 50 years service. While hie duties
have taken him away from Toronto ie
recent years, General Otter has a host
of frienclo in this city, where he spent
emetically all his life. General Otter saw
service in the Fenian Raids, now 46 years
gone by. As Colonel of the Queen's Own
Rifles lie saw much service in the Keith.
West Rebellion in 1885, and the embers of
the controversy over his tactics at the
battle of Cutknife Hill have not entirely

A Piquant Law Sult.
The High Court is still considering the
law suit of Mr. G. G. S. Lindsey ngainet
Dr. W. D. Le Sueur. The nee has at-
tracted a great deal of eittentlon, partly
ea account of the Prominence of the 1111-
gant, partly on recount of the interest=
Ina point of lrw at issue, and partly also
on account of the exceedingly intereeing
recollections which came up in the course
of the trial. Mr. G. G. S. Lindsey is a grand-
son of William Lyon Mackenzie. He is a
son of the late Mr. Charles Lindsey, for
many years a prominent journalist of To-
ronto, and in later years registrar,- and
of Janet L., one of the daughters of the
rebel -patriot. The Lindsey family have
had in their possession for many years
practically all of the documents relating
to Mackenzie, which arm now extant. This
collection is sant to be exceedingly pro-
fuse and interesting, containing docu-
ments which are to be found nowhere else.
iu the world,
Briefly, the story of the present law.
suit is that Dr. Le Sueur, who is a liter-
ary light of Ottawa, being commissioned
by the publishers of the 'Mnkere of Can-
ada" series to write a biography of Wil-
liam Lyon Mackenzie, secured permission
tohave free access 'to the Lindsey lib-
rary and its docrmonts. In the course of
time Dr. Le Sueur handed over his menu•
script for the biography, but op the
ground that it was a partisan manuscript,
unfair to the memory of Mackenzie, it
was rejected by the publiehcre and not
included in the 'Makers of Canada"
series. Mr. Lindsey claims that Dr. Le
Sneer had acmes to these documents for,
the specific purpose of writing a biography
for that series and when his manuscript
was rejected his rights ceased. Mr. Lind -
Bey, therefore, encs to restrain 'Dr. Le
Sueur from making anw use whatever of
the information he secured from the. Lind-
sey library- The fact that Dr. Le Sueur
is an ardent 'Dory and Mr. Lindsey is the
grandson of his grandfather adds piqu-
ancy to the situation which is heightened
by the feet that Dr. Le Sueur is repre-
sented by' a Liberal counsel and Mr. Lind-
sey by a Conservative.
W. L. Maokenzle's Grandson.
Mr, Lindsey hue one of the keenest in-
telleete in Toronto, and - may be heard
from politically some day, though in re-
pent years he liar shown a disposition to
retire into the bnolcground. As a young
man he was prominent in politicai af-
fairs in Toronto, and over 20 years ago,
when. only cted
as aldermanO
fore two, tonnaes of e. ago, Henry was ono
of the group of young men whose weekly
meetings and discussions on public clues -
tions aro etill recalled with the keenest
pleasure by everyone who participated.
Afterward, Mr. Lindsey became manager
of the Crow's Nest Coal Co„ of which em•-
porntion he was elected President in 1907,
For the past three years,` having retired
from that position, he has lived' in To.
Tonto. Ho 1, still interested in mining
affairs and is underetood to be the pos.
seeeorof a considerable fortune.
It is of passing interest that he was
the founder of the "Varsity," the student
publication ' which . has recently beenin
the limelight in copnection with the die-
pute with Principal Hagerty.
Hamilton to the Front.
The winning of three football champion

ton has brought that rival of Toronto

publi-
city may not be the beet kind of publi-
city, but the Ambitious city's feat is un-
doubted evidlenbe of theexistence ofa
morethan ordinary ciyia spirit. •
Hamilton' used to be a continuousbutt
of all stock jokes in Toronto. On the
stage this continues to 6e7110 extent, but
it would seemthatthe practice is dying
out. -Perhaps one reason is that Toronto
is gutting so big that it no- longer con
eiders Hamilton as a serious rival.. To-
ronto mow points with. pride to the fact
that its population is increasing every
year by more thee 10,000 births, apart al-
together from additions to population by
immigration and annexations. Soma six
or seven years ago Hamilton put on a
considerable spurt and secured the loca-
tion, of a largenumber or important-Am-
eriean •industries, but in recent years its
increase in population hies not been so
marked.: At the same time it has nearly
every natural advantage that Toronto has
and with theright kind of civic spirit
and enterprise there is no reason why
it should not become a large city.
