Iceland, about half the size of Mis-
souri, has no jail, no penitentiary,
there is no court and only one police-
man. Not a drop of alcoholic liquor is
made in Iceland, and its 78,000 people
are total abstainers, since they will
not permit any liquor to be imported.
There is not an illiterate on the island,
not a child ten years old unable to read,
the system of public schools being per-
fect. There are special seminaries and
colleges, several good newspapers, and
a printing establishment which every
year publishes a number of excellent
books on various lines. Such is the
report brought by northern travellers

advices dated September 12th, have
been received from London regarding
the awards that were given to the
Grand Trunk, and the Grand Trunk

that these companies have received

announced in the cable receive() on

These awards have been made under
the following: -“Arts and Crafts";
"Engineering, Lighting, and Transpor-
tation"; and "Building Trades"; also
"Advertising." This is considered by
the Companies named as a great honor,
as other railways exhibiting, at the Ex-

tion, for week ending September Oth,
Shows that the number of persons visite/
ing the Grand Trunk Pavilion Was 21,-
