AN EXAMINER HAD ASSISTED TWO STUDENTS. Went Out of The Roomy And Pio cured Answers For His Bravery. Montreal, Jan. 15.~Hector Gaudet, a membir of the board of examiners of the bar association of the pro- vince of Quebec, has resigned his position under unusual circumstances. At the conclusion of the written ex- aminations for admission to the bar, held yesterday, two students com: plaimed that Gaudet had assisisd two other students to pass. Gaudet was called before the board and admitted the accusation and at once resigned. The students who were thus enabled to pass bad their examinations nullified. It seems that after two students had received their questions, Gaudet went out of the * room and procured - the answers which he gave them. Sir Thomas Shaughnessy, president of the C.P.R., to-day, presented Capt. Macdougall with a gold watch on be- hali of the United States government as. a recognition of his brayery in re- soning the crew of an American ves- sel, on lake Superior, some months ago. Capt. Macdougall iz the com- mander of the C.P:R. steamer Artha- baska, plying on lake Superior. WANTS INSURANCE. The Case Of Mrs. Sternaman Ar In Albany. Albany, Jan. 15.~Seward A. Simons and Wallace Thayer, of Bufialo, ar- gued before the court of appeals in the action of Olive Sternaman, first convicted and . then acquitted of a charge of murdering her husband, agriust the Metropolitan ance company to recover the insur ance on her husband's life. In the be- ginning of the action, Mr. Simons, who appears for the insurance com- pany; wet up the defence of murder, but when Mrs. Sternaman was ae- quitted the defence was changed to breach of warranty. The decision in this case will be im* portant, as it will determine the lia bility of insurance companies for the action of their agents. life iusur- PANTHEISM AND THEISM. Of The People Of India. , London, Jan. 18.--According to Madras despatch to the Times, bishop of Madras, in his charge to the clergy of the digeese, told them that in dealing with 'the mass of nqp: christian students, who rejected the truths of christianity, they must be content to teach them truths they would accept. Theism, he said, exist Inclination a the ed in India side by side, with panthe- | ism.

At a meeting of the nniverdity coun- cil yesterday afternoon, the commit- we appointed to co-operate in the movement to raise the fund 'to erect "Grant Hall," prestnted a report which showed that the students had succapded in their efforts beyond the expectations of many of their friends, and were deserving of warm congra- tulations on the result of their labors. It appears that already between $12, 000 and $13,000 has been subscribed, of which fully two-thirds has been contributed by the students. Corres pondence has also been 'had with a number of graduates and friends of the university in the county of Fron- tenac and elsewhere and satisfactory returns are expected. It was resolved to continue to prosccute the canvass with vigor, and for the purpose of prosecuting the work in Kingston, which except for Mr. Warty's sabsrip- tion and those of some of the staff, has not really contributed move than a very smal | amount of © the above sum, a strong committee was appoint- od including business men who volunteered to as- sist. 'A similar committee was ap- pointed for the purpose of taking ste and it is expected that at an adjourned meeting which will be held on: March Ath, reports will forts will meet with assured success.

Thos. McGiverih of Galt, Charged With Embezzlement. Galt, Ont., Jan. 15.~Thomas © Giverin, - arrested iu Bufialo, chafged with grand larceny, and being. 'held by the Buffalo authorities for extra- dition to Canada, was, until the lat: ter part of last yoar, a highly respect ed resident of Galt. He is a marri man, about fity-five vears of ade, and came from Wamilton to Galt about twenty-five years ago. He was for several years a member of the town council, and has been prominent- ly identified with the "Methodist chifch here as ireasurer of the Sabs bath school. The discovery was piade by the board of the church about three months ago that McUiverin was short in his accounts. Nothing could be elicited from him as to his true financial position, and an investigu- tion was held, which disclosed a very bad state of affairs, involving a short age of * several theusand dollars, Moneys received for the purpose of re ducing mortgage indebtedness were not so applied, and the fact was con cenled by means of jorged vouchers. This had been going on for two or thee years until dishonored bank cheques became 50 numerous as to create suspicion, which led to the ex- posure. When the report got out everybody was astonished, but out of considera tion for his family the local press said very little, if anything about the mat- ter. It was, however, quietly discuss ed for some weeks after the discovery. Mr. McGiyerin was clerk of the third division court, and was also engaged business, Considerable shortage in connection with insurance and redl es tate and money borrowed from private citizens came to light, which simply Opportun ties for restitution were offered by re presentatives of the Methodist church, but pot taken advhntage of. Where She money went is a mystery MeGiverin was a man of very steady habits and did not live extravagant ly. Towards the end of December last eriminal proceedings were threatened, which apparently caused him to at tempt suicide; as he was found in his office about midnight a day or so lates f0 an unconscious condition from escaping gas Siw pipe being severed. A week's medical treatment restored him. He quietly left town immediate ly afterwards. A warrant was then is sued for his arrest at Hamilton, but he had gone on to the United States. Nothing more was heard of his where abouts until his arrest. DEVLIN A REDMOND MAN, Hate Brifis Flag Too Much To. Come To Canada. Montreal, Jan. 15.-C, R. Devlin, former member for Wright county in the house of commons, now aomicion government immigration agent for Ireland, is in the city. In an inter view he expressed himself as a Tollow er of John Redmond, and said Eng land oppressed the Irish hecause they were Roman Catholics. Asked for a reason as to why so few Irish emi grate to Canada. Mr. Devlin said it was because of the British flag which floated over the dominion and the re Yuctance of that race to serve under it, because they bated the country it represented. He thought, however, that the appearance of Sir Wilfrid Laurier at the recent banquet to John Redmond, at Ottawa, would Jessen that prejudice. LOVE WAS THE LURE, Washington Monk Goes Back Ta Society.
