The People, Probaby.
The London Advertiser asks: "Who
is going to pay tate railroad companies
for the special train with which Sir C.
Tupper, Bart., careered through Onta-
rio and the Maritime Provinces during
the election campaign? It ought not
to be a public charge, and if the ac-
count is paid out of the Dominion
Treasury, steps should be taken by the
incoming Government to have the
Treasury recouped. No political party
has a right to charge the costs of an
election campaign to the country. It
would never be tolerated in Great
Britain." But the probabilities are
t111)lt it will be charged up to the peo-
ple of the Dominion in some shape or
other.

Liberals in office.
The Toronto Star says:
"Years ago some one said that if the
Liberals did by any stroke of luck se-
cure a controlling inflnerce in Parlia-
ment, the party would prove too im-
practical to retain power long, and
that statement bas developed into po-
pular belief. Before backing thin opin-
ton with money, however, it would be
as well to wait until the party has an
opportunity to show what it can do.
Recent events have shown Mr Laurier
to be not al ogether theoretical; Sir 0.
Mowat's record indicates that he is not
given to blundering out of office, and
the party may turn out to be leech-
like after all."
The Liberals should remain in office
just as long as they do right, and no
longer; before they are guilty of a
tenth part of the wrong -doing that has
marked the regime of their opponents
they will be turned out of office. The
Liberals will not sanction improper
transactions, even if done by their own
friends.
The Liberals will endeavor to legis-
late in the interests of the masses;they
will try to conduct the public works
and all other spending departments'
honestly; they should see that for ev-
ery dollar of public money expended,
full value is given, and if they accom-
plish this, together with wise and pru-
dent legislation, they will be entitled
to remain in office, and not otherwise.
The Tariff.
A workman writea to the Montreal
Star as follows: The fact is that as
things are here today, everything con-
sidered, a man would be better off in
the Old Land, The average working-
man, who has not the opportunity of
rising, and is working on wages of $6
to $10 per week, finds great difficulty
in keeping himself and family respect-
able. The amounts just mentioned,
seem at first sight to a person from the
Old Country good pay, but after a lit-
tle experience they find that, owing to
the much greater cost of living here,
the sum of $10 per week is not equal to
a pound there. Nearly every article
of food and clothing either costs more
or is of inferior quality, sometimes
both. The severer climate necessita-
tes the purchase of additional clothing
and fuel, and in our cities house -rent
and taxes are very heavy. The reve-
nue tariff, such as Mr Laurier proposes
to give us, would, I think, give us the
relief we need, without seriously af-
fecting the manufacturers. We hold,
sir, if ever this country is to become
great, it must be chiefly through the
farming industry, and yet we find that
the farmer is made to bear the heav-
iest part of the burden, instead of
which everything should be done to in-
duce incoming population to take up
farming. The whole trouble seems to
be that our manufacturers are not
content with a reasonable profit on
their goods, and if they are not able to
make millionaires of themselves in a
few years they are not satisfied.
''CANADA'S GREAT EXPOSITION.—The

ONE HUNDRED DEAD.
MiNING HORROR AT PITTSTON,
PA., ON SUNDAY,
Cave In and Explosion—Probably All in
the Mlne Have Perishod--Perelstent But
Unsnooessful Attempts at Reeone.
Wllkesbarre, Pa., June 28—At 3
o'clook this morning the City of Pittston,
nine miles from here, was thrown into
the wildest excitement by three distinct
and separate shooks, ocoompenied by
rumblings resembling an earthquake dis-
turbance. They were so strong as to
awaken the people throughout east and
west Pittston. Immediately after. fear
took possession of the entire population,
which was added to by the blowing of
the whistle of the Twin Shaft at Pittston
Junction, accompanied by repeated fire
alarms. Hundreds of people rushed in
mad haste to the Twin Shaft, operated
by the Newton Coal Company, from
which they learned that the shook was
due to an extensive cave-in, accompanied
by an explosion, which had occurred in
the sixth or lower vein of the shaft.
Rumors soon gained currency that no
less than 100 'nen and boys were en-
tombed in the pit. The fearful and
distressing news spread with lightning
rapidity, and by 8 o'clock this morning
the head of the shaft was thronged by
thousands of men, women and children.
The hours following the alarm were full
of harrowing scenes. The anxious sus-
pense of the workmen, the grief of the
friends, and the tender sympathy for the
afflicted ones, manifested by the specta-
tors, were painful to witness. Efforts
were made to quiet the friends of the
men in the mine by tendering the little
encouragement possible, but unavailingly
were those efforts put forth as the
mothers, fathers, daughters, sons,
brothers and sisters reasonably feared the
worst, and upon the first information
received their fears were found to be well
grounded.
The first to Dome to the surface from
the shaft after the explosion was John
Gill, who was at the bottom engaged in
labor. The fordo of the concussion threw
him with terrific force to the wall, and
with Intense fear, more dead than alive,
he crept to the ft.ot, and with great
difficulty signaled to the engineer at the
surface to hoist the carriage. When he
was brought up his story added to the
doubt as to the safety of any of the men
and boys below. From him was secured
the first information of •the number of
men in the shaft. It is thought that not
less than 100 workmen have suffered a
most horrible death.
John Riker, a runner boy, Jacob
Adam and Frank H, Sheridan, company
men, were next brought to the surface
and confirmed Gill's story. It appears
that several days ago the officials dis-
covered that the rock between the fifth
nd sixth veins had commenced
"working" and to prevent an accident
all day Saturday and Saturday night the
full complement of day men and suoh
Others as could be pressed into service
were at work pillaring and propping the
'Leib vein, so as to ensure the safety of
the workmen who were to go to work on
Monday. Saturday night the regular
night tome was working at a point about
8,000 feet from the shaft at the foot of
No 8 plane, at a point under what is
gnown as the Flats, a little east of the
Ooxton railway yards Orders were given
about midnight that as many men as
possible should be sent down to assist
in this dangerous work In accordance
with this order, betwebn 12 and 1 o'clock
this morning, about thirty additional
workmen left their homes and journeyed
to what now seems their grave
The new force of men enlisted in the
work was placed at a point beyond that
of the night hands and the terrible news
brought to the surface by the four men
who likely will be the only ones to live
to tell the tale of disaster was that all of
these 100 or more men had been caught
and either crushed to immediate death
or imprisoned to perish by a death most
horrifying
Upon learning this discouraging news
the excitement became more demonstra-
tive. It was found that all the mine
foremen, superintendents and bosses who
had gone to supervise the work were
with those who aro imprisoned This gave
the work of relief no systematic head,
but the rescuers, providing themselves
with safety lamps, hurried into the mine -
carriage and were lowered 1,000 feet or
more on the -mission of relief They were
John Doyle, Charles McDonald and
James Tenyon. After a half-hour of
suspense they returned with expressions
of discouragement and the story that the
Dave -in had become more extensive and
that the search party faced inevitable
danger and that no news had been
securedunfortunate men With no
of the
delay, however, they again went down
to the foot of the shaft with other men
and again made heroic efforts to get
what information they could, but again
baffled and discouraged they repeated
their story of defeated effort. For a
third time, at 2 p.m to -day, with
renewed vigor and still more men, they
went beneath the surface into the pit and
tried by the oounter-gangway to reach
by a circuitous route the unfortunate
prisoners. After a journey of nearly a
thousand feet they met obstructions in-
numerable, the force of the concussion
having created disastrous havoc, brattioe
Work,' pillars, air vondnits, doers, Dara
and top rook having been piled premtseu-
ously so. as to interfere with all efforts
that ctould be made by any human being.
Then, to add to the trouble, an aooumu-
latien of gas bad occurred so as to
endanger any edorts to reach anywhere
near the imprisoned miners. Not subdued
by these obstacles they again ineffectively
tried their last resource to relieve and
recover the men. General Manager John
B. Law, who has been ill for several
days, made his appearance at the shaft to
give instrnettone. Bpeoial messengers
called to the shaft all of the company's
workmen. It having been learned that the
mine was still caving, thereby making it
practically impossible to continue the
labor without propping up the way as
the reseuere went in, carriage after
Carriage of props were sent to the
bottom, and, ander charge of Foreman
Eagan of the Phoenix mine, Messrs.
Maloney of the Raven shaft and Mo -
Millan of the Barnum shaft, much
progress was made in this work, and
soon the imminent danger was prevented
and at least fifty men were pushing
their way to the foot of No. 8 plane, the
scene of the extensive cave-in.
To the encouragement of those wily,
feared the explosion had ended the lives
of ever'y+thing in the mine, word was

o'olook this evening the aspeot was ea
gloomy as it was early this morning
Mine Inspector MODonald was on the
ground and went to the foot of the shaft,
where he made a thorough investigation.
He determined that no rescue could then
be made and his report only confirmed
the stories of his predecessors in the work
of rescue. So far as travel was possible
the air currents were perfect. To the
encouragement of all it was found that
the fan house had suffered no injury.
This fact gave hope to those in control
that perhaps a sufficient volume of air
oould be forced to the rear of the cave-in
by mending it in a roundabout way, but
this afternoon at a ooneultation of the
leading superintendents of the T►okawaua
and Wyoming volleys it Was feared that
this Idea was not to be depended upon.
ARMENIAN ATROCITIES.
Mr. Qladstone's Condemoation of the Porte
—Fresh Massacres Reported.
London, June 28.—The Chxoniele pub- '
lishes a letter from Mr. Gladstone oft
the subject of the Armenians, in which
he says: "Nobody uses language half
strong enough against the Sultan and
his agents. To describe their guilt is
beyond all bounds, and the language
ought to go beyond all bounds. My
choice le between far out -Herodias
everybody and absolute silence, for my
language ab.traotedly might plausibly be
asoslllpd to temper, whereas It would be
perfectly cold-blooded. I am silent only
for fear of doing harm. The European
mind wants plausible excuses to Dover its
disgrace. Ido not wish to furnish them."
Constantinople, June 20.—Denial is
given by the Sublime Porte to the
Embassy statement that Turkish troops
fired upon Armenian prisoners.
Complete accord exists between the
representatives of the great powers on
the subject of securing the appointment
of a Christian Governor for Crete, and
the fulfilment of the treaty of Aleppo.
Each Ambassador will send an individu-
al note to this effect.
There was another sanguinary out-
break at Van yesterday, and four hun-
dred people were killed.
The Persians are promoting the dis-
turbances and fomenting the revolt
throughout Armenia.
The Druses have now received Bedouin
support, and are driving out the Turks.
Diplomatic pressure is being brought
to bear upon the Porte, increas'.ng the
chances of peace.
The following statement is made by
Captain Vialar: "1 have witnessed hide-
ous enormities. Armenian girls and
women were publicly sold at auction. A
mother threw her two daughters into a
well before my eyes to save them from
the Turks. Evi es of 'Turkish official
complicity have been obtained by me.
Tho foreign press should he ashamed to
remain indifferent." Captain Vialar
deplores the humiliating role accepted by
ranee, The Porto continues to hang
Armenians publicly.

How to str'ngthm the rnenrlry is an
interesting question. I think the best
way is to use it constantly, making it
serve you by giving it definite facts and
events to carry, as a pack -horse might
on a journey. There are many phases of
the problem, some people finding that
they cannot fix dates in their minds,
others forgetting the faces and names of
friends, and others still having great
trouble In committing anything by rote.
Devices of rhymes and assooiations help
some persons, and others simply depend
on memoranda, and do not tax their
anemones at all As a rule, the more we
give the memory to do, however, the
more quickly and faithfully it will re-
spond to our wishes. In little children
memory is very retentive, because their
minds are at the stage when impreeslons
are easily made; you know the line
which says that In childhood our minds
are "Wax to receive, and marble to re-
tain." 8o that we should be very careful
indeed about what we say, what we do,
and what we teach, when the dear little
ones are concerned.
Some girls haven great deal of trouble
in remembering the rules of syntax, the
Latin oonjugations, and the pages of
history which their teachers require to be
recited exactly as they are 1n the book.
Try the method of studying aloud. Go
away by yourself to commit your lee -gone
to memory, and then, over and over,
slowly, carefully, with your mind and
attention fixed on what you are doing,
read phrases, sentences and formulas,
over and over, and over and over, and
by and by you will have them by heart.
I have often done this when I have
wished to learn a hymn or a poem, and
I know that hearing what one is study-
ing assists the more seeing. Then having
other people in the room, talking and
laughing, is very distracting to the at-
tention. Try my method, and report re-
t lints,--ftarper's Round Table.

NEW
ERA
O
When a man owns a blooded horse be is
always careful of its health. He looks after
its diet and is particular that the feeding
shall be regular and right. While he is
doing this it is likely as not that he is him•
self suffering from some disease or disorder
that if left to itself will go on and on till it
develops seriously.
When the trouble gets so bad that he can-
not work, he will begin to'give himself the
care he gave the horse at the start. The
time to cure a disease is at the beginning
and better than all is to so watch your
health that disease will never come. Good,
pure, rich, red blood is the best insurance
against disease of any kind. Almost all
diseases come from impure or impoverished
blood. Keep the blood pure and strong
and disease can find no foothold.
That is the principle on which Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery works.
It cleanses,urifies and enriches the blood;
it puts and keeps the whole body in perfect
order. Makes appetite good, digestion
strong,assimilation perfect. It brings rud-
dy, viile health.
"9 got a cancer on my tongue and bad it ant
out. I consulted fifteen different physicians
without deriving any benefit. At last I turned
to Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. I
persisted in its use and my health is better than
ever before. Formerly every accidental wound
I received began to fester, would not heal; now,
such lacerations heal themselves."

FOOD OF SNAKES.
Indigestion Is Not One of the Ills of
Reptiles.
During the last few months some 44t the
gentlemen connected with the Mtffeum
o! Natural History at Paris have given
to the world various interesting resulte
of their observations.
The learned professor at the musegm,
Leon Valliant, describes the diet of a
serpent more than twenty feet long,
which has been on exhibition at the Jar-
din
ardin des Plantes since the mouth of Au-
gust, 1886. Up to the end of March, this
year, this reptile has eaten 60 times, �t
is on the average five times a year. e
largest number of times in one yetplr
that the snake took food was in 1880,
when he ate seven times.
Nearly always the food consisted of the
flush of goats, old and young. Three
times, however, the repast was composed
of rabbits, and once of a goose. The
feeding of the serpent, which will eat
nothing but what is alive, offers an un-
common spectacle, and many persons re-
quest to have notioe of the times when
the creature feeds, so as to witness the
feeding. The lightning -like rapidity with
which the reptile seizes its prey produces
a powerful impression.
Apropos of the volume which can, by
means of distention, enter the stomaobs
of serpents, Prof. Valliant relates that a
French viper was once put in the same
cage with a horned viper. As these indi-
viduals, although belonging to different
species, were of the same size, it was
supposed that these reptiles would live
amicably side by side.
Nevertheless, the horned vier, during
'the following night, swallowed his com-
panion in captivity, and in order to ac-
commodate this prey so disproportionate
to itself, its body was dittended to suoh
a degree that the scales, instead of touch-
ing each other laterally, and even over-
lapping each other a little, as in its
normal condition, were separated, leav-
ing between the longtitudinal rows of
tilt= a space equal to their own breadth.
All the same, digestion proceeded req
larly, and the viper did not appear Qq
have suffered to the least. The case of A
cobra that swallowed a brother cobra,
by mistake, at the London zoo, afford

Tells an Interesting Story.
Mr. Francis Somerville, one of the best
known men in the steamboat traffic on
the rivers and lakes of Ontario, having
been engaged in this business for fifty
years, and who resides at No. 195 Upper
Colborne Street, Kingston, speaks as
follows of his recovery from the sickness
which has affected him for some time.
Said Mr. Somerville: "The grip left
me with kidney troubles and gravel. I
had severe pain over the kidneys and in
the small of my back, also between the
shoulders and in the bladder.
"The urine was very dark -colored with
a great deal of muddy sediment. I went
to Mr. McLeod's drug store and bought
two boxes of Doan's Kidney Pills. I have
taken them with what people tell me is
the usual good result.
"They have cleared the urine, removed
the sediment, relieved me of distressing
pain in the back and between the should-
ers, and have built me up in a surprising
manner. In fact, I am entirely free from
the troubles which affected me before
taking these remarkable pills, and I
recommen4 them as a certain cure for all
troubles arising from kidney disorders."

buildings worth speaking of. The land is
first rate; a good price is expected, but not.
more than the land is worth.
Also FARM of 50 ACRES—
Within one mile of the former, being part
of the Wigmore Farm, being composed of
East half of Lot No. 4, 2nd Con. of West
Nissouri; the land is first rate, and with -
very little cultivation will make a farm
second to none of its size.
Any of the above are good investments
and all particulars can be obtained on
