His Excellency tabes his seat on
the dais and after D1rayer= have
been offered by the Chaplain of the
Senate, the business of the occasion
begins with the reading of the
speech from the throne. This pur-
poses mainly to outlinefire business
before Parliament, but as has been
said, it is usually remarkable for
what it omits than • for - what.it
contains. *With the reading• of the
speech frrut the throne,' the cere-

concluded. •
The departure of the Governor-
(teneral is similar to his arrival.
Cannons are fired to announce his
departure, the band plays the
National Anthem and. this con-
cludes the demonstrations of the
"Opening Day" of Parliament.

DASHWOOD - ONTARIO
The Opening,Day of Dominion Par-
liament.
The approach of the day named
for the Assembly of Parliament is
marked in the "Buildings" by a
general renovation of the cham-
bers and apartments, and a notice-
able quickening in the movements
of the usual leisurely officials.
The opening day, itself, which
this year came on March 12th, is
regarded by the public as the occa-
sion of a demonstration of pomp
and circumstance for their special
delight.
The gorgeous ceremonies without
which, it appears, Parliament is
unable to get to work, are modelled
on the practice in vogue in the
Mother Country. It has been said
that the performance of thein in
Canada is like the efforts of a small
boy to wear with dignity his
daddy's haat, • Nevertheless, the
scene is interesting and not alto-
gether impressive, when the origin
'of the formalities is considered.
The well -kept grounds about the
buildings swarm with a mass of
spectators. These are the less
fortunate, or less socially import-
ant, who have been unable to
secure admission to the Senate
Chamber.
The crowning glory of the dis-
play is the arrival of the Governor-
General. His departure from the
official residence, Rideau Hall, is
heralded to the crowd by the first
gun of an artillery salute, fired
from Neiman Point, which backs
upon Parliament Hill. 'Before the
twenty-one gun salute, allowed to
the representative of Royalty, has
been fired, a four -horsed careworn,
guided by postillions aid surround-
ed by a glittering escort of brass -
helmeted cavalry, arrives with a
swing and clatter. Here is His
Excellency, with members of 'his
staff, The guard of honor salutes,
the band strikes up the National
Anthem, a loyal cheer arises from
the crowd, the Governor-General
raises his cocked hat and disap-
pears in the Buildings and the out-
side demonstration is suspended.
The scene within the Senate
Chamber on. the appearance of the
'Vice -Regal party, f.ti most brilliant.
The chamber, itself, with. its state-
ly architecture, is speet:aily tlrltlli-
lied as a fitting beak ground to the
splendor of the .spectaele. The
galleries and floors are crowded
with ladies in elaborate costumes,
Sunday tvtas the opening day of
the Christian Missionary Alliance
Convention in the Christian Work
ers' church, London, and Mrs. G
Woodward, a returned missionary
f'roru India. preached to large erne
rogations both horning and even
ing.
In her morning address Mrs.
Woodward confined herself to the
work in India, and drew a power
ful picture of the condition of the
people living in the most abject
poverty under the influence of un-
scrupulous native priests. The
force at present in the field was
shown to be entirely inadequate.
In some cases one missionary had
to preach the Gospel to a city three
times as large as London, and. in
many districts the Gospel had
never been preached at all.
in view of the need, Miss Wood-
ward thought Christian people
should make a special effort to
send out the Gospel and especially
was there need of personal conse-
cration in the work.
•The trouble is not that God is
not calling us, said. she, but that
we don't here Hint. He is calling as
He never did before, calling by the
open door, and the chances of suc-
cess in His work. May we heat
that call and answer it. Older
people may pray for others to be
sent, but the prayer of the younger
should be "Here am I send vie,"
and if that prayer is offered• from
the heart the way will he opened.

part of Canada and the United
States. You can use it knowing
that it is bound to do you good.

The Panama Canal Treaty Ratified
by the U. S. Senate.
Washington, March. 17.—The
Panama Canal treaty was ratified
by the Senate 73 to 5.
The treaty between. the United
States and Colombia, which was
ratified to-day,wa.s signed. at Wash-
ington January 22, 1903. It was
negotiated by Secretary Hay on
the part of the United States, and
T. Herron, charge d'afl.'airs, on the
part of Colombia., who signed the
document. It was sent to the
President January 28, and by hint
to the Senate on the sante date. It
was sent to the committee on
foreign relations the sante day, and
reported. back February 3. The
treaty was discussed at some length
cluing the last Congress. The day
the special session of the Semite
convened, March 5th., the treaty
was again referred to the commit-
tee on foreign relations, and March
9 was again reported to the Senate,
since which time it has been under
discussion. Neither in committee
nor by the.Sonate was the treaty
amended, and it was ratified as
first negotiated,
Proof Spells Destruction.
Winnipeg Free. Press.
As for Mr. Gamey's extraordi-
nary narrative., it has plot enough
for a historical novel. It begins in
the lunch room at Allendale junc-
tion on Aug,. 7, and ends in the
office of the Crossin Piano Manu-
facturing Company on the evening
of Tuesday last, March 10, with
three young men from Gore Bay
lying concealed behind three
pianos, armed with sharpened pen -
ells and shorthand note books.
Until the whole story told by Mr.
Gamey, with the proofs submitted
by hila in the shape of money,
letters, telegrams and other docu-
ments, including the notes of the
three young stenographers from
Gore Bay, are gone into by a com-
mittee of the Ontario Legislature
or 11 judicial body, and. all the
necessary witnesses examined and
cross-examined under oath, it is
only just that judgment upon ldr.
.Stratton should be snapendod in.
the public mind. :tt is permissible,
lie ever, to say that the whole
.natter has a decidedly ugly look.
It Mr. Gamey's story, when it is
judicially investigated, can bo
proved to be founded in fact, the
result will be, so far as Mr. Strat-
ton is concerned, a very serious
one, and justly so ; while to the
Ross Government the substantia-
tion of Mr. Gamey's talo will siinp-
ly spell destruction.
