For aeveret days past the daily papers
have been predicting cabinet changes
at Ottawa, but the climax came on
Monday when Hon, A. G. Blair banded
in his resignation as minister of rail-
ways and canals. The resignation has
since been accepted by the premier and
governor,general.
Mr. Blair split with his colleagnee in
the Laurier cabinet over the Grand
Trunk Pacific railway bill. He could
not agree with thein on the suicidal
policy of paralleling the Iutercolonial
railway, which is owned by the Cana-
dian government.
A despatch from Ottawa says that
the air is full of political rumors, It is
said that Tuesday afternoon's cabinet
meeting was one of the stormiest that
has ever been held in the white chamber.
Sir Wilfrid Laurier personally made
the agreement with the Grand Trunk
Pacificpeople and is chiefly supported
by Sir 14'm, Mulock, lion Clifford Sifton
and Hon. James Suthel1 Ind, while Mr.
Blair's principal aupporters aro Hon. W.
S. Fielding and Hon Wal. Paterson,'
JUSTICE ARMOUR DEAD.
Hon. John Douglas Armour, a mem-
ber of the supreme court of Canada and
also a metnber of the Alaskan boundary
commission, who had been ill for some
time, end recently suffered a relapse,
died at the residence of his son in Lon-
don, England, o1 Saturday morning.
The death of Hon. John Douglas
Armour removes frotn the public life of
Canada a gentleman who was an Orna-
ment to the bench, while his social
qualities made him a general favorite
with the bar and a large circle of
friends. He was the youngest son of
Rev. Samuel Armour, rector of Cavan,
and was horn in Peterborough county,
May 4th, 1830. Graduating at Toronto
university in 1850, he was called to the
bar in 1858 and began practice in Co-
bourg, Iu 18. d ho was county crown
attorney of Durham and Northumber-
land Conntiea, and in 1877 ho was nude
a judge of the court of Queen's bench.
Judge Armour had been buth a Conser-
vative and a Liberal in politics, and at
one time he favored Canadian independ-
ence, In court he never allowed any
time to be wasted, and hie decieious
were alw'ay's respected. He declined
knighthood on several oocasions.

A desiateh to the Wheeling Register
from Bluefield, West Virginia, says: -
The full details of one of the blackest
crimes that have ever blotted the his-
tory of the state has just reached thin
city, In Devon, a little 14 -year-old girl
was assaulted by a negro, The negro
was afterward lynched by an enraged
snob of over 200 men. The little girl
was caught a short distance from her
home by the negro and carried to a
neighboring wood, where she wee tied
to a tree, hound and gagged. Her ab-
sence was noticed by the neighbors, who
iminodietely formed themselves into a
searching party. The girl was found
in an almost dying condition, bur, was
able to tell her story,
After a consultation it was decided to
lay in wait for the girl's assailant. Iu
a short time he appeared, aid was about.
to renew his assault upon the helpless
child, when the lynchers made fur him.
He was dragged to the village common
and hound to a tree. Only by the groat -
est efforts of the leaders was the crowd
held from tearing the man to pieces.
His clothing was torn from his body,
and pins, tacks, pen knives and every
conceivable weapon of torture was stuck
into the negro'e /With as he struggled
and pleaded for life.
The almost lifeless form of Ms little
victim was than placed before the eyes
of the negro, while willing hands cut
the tongue from hie swollen mouth.
His cries became incoherent, and before
the enraged citizens could be checked
the skin was literally cut from his body
and distributed among the villagers,
The negro died with hie eyes on the
little girl he had assaulted. His heart
was then cut out with jack knives, his
toes and fingers chopped off and carried
away as mementoes. His mangled
body was then soaked with kerosene
and fired.

EVERYONE CAN HELP THE
CONSUMPTIVE.
The New Free Consumptive Hospital
Will Admit Consumptives Absolutely
W ithoutl0harge.
The appeal being made on behalf of the
new Free Consumptive Hospital, built
under the auspices of the National Seni-
tarium Association -the drat Free Con-
sumptive Hospital in Canada -is one that
touches closely the heart -strings of every
man, woman, and child the broad Domin-
ion over. Where is the community, far
or near, without its sufferers from this
dread white plague? We are all in-
terested in bringing these relief sod re-
storing them to health, family, and
soave citizenship again,
One important step in this direction
has been taken in the erection of the new
Free Consumptive Hospital, due to the
beneficence of two Toronto citizens, and
which ie now nearly completed. When
the workmen go out of the building, and
that will be almost immediately, alt that
is wanted to make it ready to receive the
consumptive is that it he supplied with
beds and other furnishing appointments,
no charge whatever being mad.) for
admittance.
'Phe National Sanitariutp Association
are already carrying too heavy a debt to
undertake the furnishing themsolvee,
but the way is open for each one to belp
in raising t11. $10,000 needed for this
purpose. The sum 1s not a large one.
Ten thousand individual contributions of
31.00 oaob out of a population of nearly
6,000,000 people would accomplish this
end. Some, of course, with their hearts
racked by the puttering* of relatives,
friends, or fellow -citizens, will, out of their
abundance, do better than this. Fifty
dollars will furnish a bed. What is needed
is Mutt the amount be raised quickly, that
the many knocking at the doors of the
National Sanitarium Association may
find a place open for them.
Contributions for this purpose, $1.00
or more, willbe received by Sir Wm. B.
Meredith, Chief Justice, 4 Lamport Ave.,
Toronto; W. J. Gage, Fsq,, 64 Front St.
West, Toronto; or National Trust Co.,
Limited, Treasurer, 22 King St, East,
Toronto. Fifty dollars will furnish a
bed.
The Late Dr. Dewart.
A good story of the determination
and zeal of that great, brave and good
man, the Irate Dr, Dewart, is told by the
Toronto Sunday World. Dr. Dewart,
when he was young, was little less than
a " bushwhacker," or lumberman, and
as that class are ueually under straight-
ened circumstances, he wart not excep-
tionally well to do. He was working
near Peterboro, when he made up his
mind that he was going to attend the
grammar school in Toronto, and study
to be a Methodist minister. But his
pocket was so empty of the coinage of
-Mr. Nixon Sturdy, the well known
clerk of Goderich township, had a
narrow escape from death ou Tuesday
morning of last week. He was helping
to unload hay into the barn, and gave
the rope attached to the carrier a pull
which brought it over the end of the
beam, and the cradle came down on him
with all its weight, one prong entering
his right breast, just over the lung, but
fortunately being turned aside by a rib
it made only a long but deep flesh
wound, which required several stitches
to close up, Mr. Sturdy had the wound
hastily dressed and drove into Goderich
to Dr. Whitely, who attended to it
properly, remarking that half an inch
more world have been certain death.
Mr. Sturdy will be laid up for a couple
of weeks, much to his regret during this
busy season.
