According to the report of the Montreal Star Mr Tarte made the fellowing inter- esting statements at the Liberal meeting at St. Constant on Thnreday.—" When I first became possessed of the documents in the McGreevy 'scandal I showed them to Mt Laurier, who said:—'You have discov- ered a regular nest, but be careful that you do not go to gaol.' There is no doubt but that I would have gone to gaol had I not been elected at the time for Montmorency, and made my declarations on the floor of the House, because then the implicated parties had great influence. The Conser- vative press is carrying on a guerilla war- fare against me. I warn thein to'be care- ful or else I may make certain declara- tions which may not be agreeable to several of them. I may, if I am driven to the wall, reveal some of the attempts which were made to silence me at the time of that investigation. Is there any linen 'to believe that 1 could not have received $100,000 to remain silent at that time? But I was not to be bribed. There Were lei. quities ' in the Administration which I could not countenance, and that is why I broke away from my party. There was a ;time viten Mr .Chapleaa,came.

GBANTLY, ONT., July 51, Probably there is no man more widely known in the coun- ty of Dundee and vicinity than Mr J. C. Munro, of this plane. He has carried on business as a general store keeper for twen- ty years, and has also, for many years, been the local postmaster: He has long been a prominent church member, and a leading man in social circles. He has al- ways been looked up to with respoet and esteem, and his word, to use a phrase our - rent among those who know him, is as good as his bond. It was a matter of gen- eral regret when it became known about four years ago, that he was suffering from dropsy, which has afflicted him ever since. The pleasure of Mr Munro's many friends may more easily be imagined than describ- ed, when it was learned that he had begun using Dodd's kidney pills, and had found in them a core by means of which he is rapidly regaining sound health. The Roman supper was in three courses—soups, meats and fruits. The U. S. customs tax in 1891 amounted to $2,83 per capita. In Canada the cus- toms tax was $4.84. The Russian Government is closing all .schools in the south of Russia, on account of the prevalence of cholera. Canada's fishery exhibit at the World's Fair is said to be among the finest, rivalling even that of Norway. There have been 6,666 deaths from cholera in Mecca and 2,318 in Jedda since the present epidemic broke out. A Pennsylvania man is prospecting for coal at Kettle Point, Ont.

Hundreds of acres have been wholly ruined by the peat. A daylight robbery occurred at Wood stock Friday morning about 10 o'clock, a successful attack being made on the jaw elry store of Mr Wm. Pott.' Mr Pott was absent not more than a minute when a rig drove up. The occupants hurriedly jump- ed out, and running into the store quietly relieved Mr.Pott of $600 worth of watohes, including twelve men's and twelve women's., gold watches. Thebnrglars have not been caught. Dr H. 11. Mudd, a local physician,. went from Chicago to St. Louis on Tuesday, on, a special train, over the Wabash in 6 hours and 16 minutes, the fastest time ever made between the two cities. The distance is 286 miles. Dr Mudd was the only passenger, and the special was sent out to enable hung to reach there in time to perform an operation on T. J. Moss, a railway con, tractor, who a week ago was taken, sick. Within 45 minutes after Dr.; Mudd was notified by telegraph at his hotel in Chicago that be was needed immediately in St. Louis, the Wabash had an engine and coach ready for him, at the Dearborn street station. The train made 12 stops, and lost I0 minutes because of a hot box. The operation has successfully performed, and Mr Ross has a fair prospect of recovery. Some of the leading citizens of Aberdeen gave a banquet last Friday evening to the Earl of Aberdeen, the new Governor-Gen- eral of Canada. The earl in a speeolydi- lated upon the energy with whioh the Can. adians had built their institutions. The energy was all the more credible, he said, seeing that Canada's nearest neighbor was the powerful but friendly sister nation, the United States, a nation which bad great wealth and a vast population, and which enjoyed special facilities for rapid progress. Canada, he added, understood and would prove the advantage of a steady and safe, if gradual advance. She also understood and appreciated the benefits arising from ample autonomy, combined with a vital but absolutely unhampered connection with the British Empire. "That sets you free, but I never want to see your face again." With these words Mrs W. W. Ward, at Port- land, handed to her husband a pardon she had secured from the Governor, and then rushed out. Ward, who was sentenced to three years and four months in the penitentiary for attempt- ing to kill his wife, was granted full pardon by Governor Pennoyer on the recommendation of the judge and jury who tried him. Mrs Ward has labored' incessantly to procure a pardon for her husband. She has travelled to secure testimony, labored with officers and courts, and at last achieved her tri- umph. When she secured pardon ph- pers and was driven in a hack to the prison, she handed Ward his pardon through his cell. bars and said in cool tones, "That sets you free, but I never want to see your face again," she turn- ed, almost fainting, rushed out of the prison to her carriage, and was driven to the station just in time to catch the train. Ward boarded the next train for the east. Mrs Ward is a fine look- ing woman, and jealousy, wholly with- ont foundation, was the cause of her hu4band's attempt to kill her. 4 ; e . g : s!) ,t The old, reliable, and tested brands Eve* y S pun.
