London, Jan. 22.--After what pro mised to be a irditless search the lord Chamberlain's office has succeeded in locating the bible used at the corona- tion of queen Victoria. The bible was desired in order that an exact duplicate might be made for the forth- coming coronation of king Edward. After a weary hunt the precious vol unie "has at last been found in - the ¥ jon of the bishop of Guildiord's nephew, who isa grandson of bishop Summer, to whom it passed by right in virtue of his office, when bishop of Winchester. ---------- Murderer's Path Was Rough. Kippewa, Que., Jan. 22. Detective Crowe, of the Canadian secret ser vice, who arrested Jules Henri in conne:tion with the murder of young Gutcher, sriived hire yesterday. He captured his man in the woods about twenty-five miles back of this place. Henti was found in a hub-out built with pine roots and brush. He told the detective that the shooting - was quite ac ilental. Old Gutcher = was not there at the time and when living on' rabbits snd whatever else he could shoot in the woods.

WAS THE WORST OF THE YEAR. BEGUN TUESDAY AND KEPT UP ALL WEDNESDAY. Trees Damaged, Telegraph And Telephone Poles And Wires Down--The Country Roads Blocked--The Most Disastrous Storm Of The Seasan. The storm king of the north beld sway today. He began his carousal in a mild, moderate way Tuesday morning, but as the day advanced and night drew on apace his fury in- creased until he showed the full sway of his wrath and created no end of injury and discomforture in conse- quence. All night he stormed and at Tsmoak shed tears of sorrow at viewing his work of wreckage, but as the hours lengthened his fury returned and continued unabated. : The storm that set in Tuesday morning by a gradual snow fall, in- creased in violence during the day and night. Snow fell heavily during Tuesday evening and, the wind in- ing _in fury towards midnight, piled it in high drifts here and there. Towards daylight Wednesday the weather took a milder turn and rain began falling, making the snow a so lid, compact mass, and rendering a matter of difficulty and fatigue. Few ventured out except those whose business compelled them to be about. The street tars were badly handi- capped and found it most difficult to make progress. The sweepers were kept at work all day Tuesday and Tues- day night, but it was an impossible undertaking, with the limited appli- ances, to keep the line open so that the cars might run on time. Wednes- day the same diffienity "was met with; the wet snow rendered the rails so slippery that the wheels refused to grip the iron girders, and in oconse- quence the street railway service was not as perfect as patrons would have wished. Trees of all kinds suffered great da- mage. Laden as they were with ice and snow, tossed about by the stor- my winds, no other result could. be expected than that they would suffer damage. Large and small branche Many fine the ground everywhere. | maple shade trees in different parts of the city had their symmetrical beau- ty destroyed. The damage in this res- pect will be very serious. The telephone and telegraph com- panies suffered heavily, their wires be- ing blown down in all directions. Many poles also snapped off owing to the axtra weight of smow and ice which they were called upon to bear. Ice accumulated on the wires and the pressure of wind cavsed © them to sway to such an extent that the over- burdened poles refused to withstand the strain and broke off. Nearly all the poles erected on Cataraqui bridge yee thus brought low. The telephone wl telegraph wires north, east and west of the city were thus put out of business and the city for a time was shut off from communication with "the outside world. All the companies sent out linemon at an early hour to make repairs, and as the storm continued, constant vigilance was necessary to keep the wires in working condition. Throaghout the city the different over- head wires looked like huge ropes. The storm was the heaviest and most disastrous of the season, and up to noon to-day did not show any signs of abating. Traffic between the .city, the islands and Cape Vincent was out of the question. None of the stage from the country villages were able to reach the city on account of the roads being blockaded, and the prospect of fammers getting into the city to attend market to-morrow is very slight. The flagstafl on the Salvation army barracks was toppled over by the wind, and fell to the ground. = Evién theoclock on the city buildings got a piece of the storm. The wind and snow slapped its face, and it was "kuocked out" for some hours. A large limb was broken from a tree at the corner of Clergy and Col- borne strects. Thousands of small branches, ice laden, were snapped off. and their number covered the ground beneath. Bb Princess strvet was in a terrible condition. lee, snow and water, from four to six inches deep, covered the walks, and made travel very disag- reenable: As usual the sewer opening at Johnston Bros." corner clogged Wp. and the street and pavement soon be- came flooded. John Wright and some of his men were dispatched to the scene, but had to dig away several snowbanks before 'they opened sewer grate. Telegraph and telephone broken in several places, ow woight of ice that clung to thei Une large pole, near the corner. of Princess and Bagot streets, swung threateningly to and fro in the wind this moming. The merchants in the vicinity were watching to see it at any moment, but it weather- ed the storm. wires were o anna Car Service Pe § Though two sweepers were kdpt on the bolt line of the street railway all night. the line could not be kept op: en. From Union street junction to the _gity buildings, via Barrie King streets, the route was block all forenoon. The cars ran only on were twisted off and broken, strewing' PETITION AGAINSY WAR. Prisoners Express Their Desire To Promote Peace. London, Jan. 22.--~The government has issued the texs of the petition re ceived from the Boer prisoners at Bermuda, referred to by colonial sex retary Chamberlain, in his speech in the house of commons. It is dated September 21th, and its signers re present the prisoners encamped on Tucker's island. The petitioners say they sre-aware of the impossibility of the Boers retaining their independ ence, and are averre to the continu- ance of the war, for which they | lame those who are siill fighting. At least three hundred prisoners express their willingness to take the vath of al legiance to Great Britain, while the remainder are willing to take the oath of neutrality. Tt is asked that those taking the oath of allegiance be al- lowed to return to South Africa, they promi-ing to do their utmost to pro mote the interests of Great Britain especially in the direction of ending the war. ------ Many Refugees. Ladybrand, Orange River Colony, Jan. 21.--Four hundred native refugees were sent from the northeast Sunday and are now quartered in St. Augus- Line's mission at Modderpoort. Forty- three Ladybrand burghers bave taken the oath of allegiance during the past few days. ------ VIGOROUSLY DENOUNCED. -------- : Ministerial Members Warmly Ap- plauded His Speech. London, Jan. 22--Mr. Balfour's spirited 'rebuke of the nationalists in the commons for the imputation on the loyalty of Canada and Australia was warmly applauded in ministerial circles. O'Kelly asked whether steps would be taken to induce the colonies to pay a share of the cost of the war. Mr. Balfour evoked loud ministerial and liberal imperialist cheers by his grateful acknowledgment of the con- tributions the colonies had already voluntarily made in men and money, and-said--the imputation in question was uncalled for, and expressxd in quite unnecessarily offensive language. W. Redmond asked what the colon ies had paid. The speaker ruled him out of order. Redmond, whose wife is an Austral- jan, shouted : "Why not ask Australia to pay as well as Ireland ?" Cries of "Order!" The incident illustrated the solidari- ty of the ministerialists and liberals in appreciation of 'the part Canada and Australia played in the war. On the other hand Chamberlain cri- ticized the liberal press for insisting that the colonies should have no say in the South African settlement. MISS CASSATT WEDS. Fashion Was Out In Full Force To See Event. Philadelphia, Jan. 22.--The world of fashion turned out in full force to-day to witness the wedding 6f Miss Eliza Cassatt to W. Plunkett Stewart, which took place at noon in St. Jamed church. The sanctuary was elaborate ly decorated, and the altar filled with white roses, over which a number of lighted tapers cast their soft light. The ceremony at the church was fol lowed by an elaborate wedding break- fast and reception at the home of the bride's parents in Rittenhouse Square. The bride comes from one of Phila delphia's best known families, being the daughter of A. J. Cassatt, presi- dent of the Pennsylvania railroad com- pany. She has been a reigning belle of society since she made her debut in the whirl of gaities two years ago. The bridegroom is a well-known busi- ness man and popular socially in Bal- timore, in, which city he resides. Naval Lieutenant Weds.

Los Angeles, Cal, Jan. 22.--Aflter being given up to die of what the doctors supposed was consumption, James W. Plunkett, a veteran soldier of the regular army, coughed up the tip of a bavonet out of his lungs, and probably will get well. Plunkett is unable to account for the tip in his lungs, but supposed he must have swallowed it. He often used his bay onet_ss a can opener, and, presum ably, the point broke off in a can of weat. Day Observed In Canada. Toronto, Jan. 22.---The anniiersary of the death of queen Victoria was generally observed to-day.

FINE FINANCIAL SHOWING MUST CONFORM TO THE RULES RECENTLY PASSED. Smoking Must Cease In The Gov- ernment Buildings--Cutting Off The Frills--Many Adornments of The Military Uniforms Abolished. Ottawa, Jan. 22.--Hon: F. R. Latch ford, minister of public works, in the Ontario government, speaking of the prospects of the Ross government for the next election, says there is every reason to believe that the government will receive strong support. The pub- lic accounts show that the govern ment has been administrating the affairs of the province in a wise and judi ious wanner, and the showing is considered to be an excellent one. A passage at-arms between the audi Yor-gousral and the minister of public works has led to the renewal of strin- gent orders ageinst smoking in all the government buildings. After the fire, whith wnroofed the west block in 1897, Mr. Tarte had the building pla "garded wits No smoking orders; and for a time the rule was more or less rigidly enforced. Gradually, how ever, it fell into general disiegard. Pretty pearly everybody who wanted to, smoked--when Mr. Tarte wasn't around. Scrupulous in all things offi- cial, the auditor-general alove of the chiefs of departments continued to en force the order. Finally, at the in- stance of his staf, Mr. McDougall wrote Mr. Tarte, asking that the clerks in the audit department be permitted to smoke. He was undiplo- matic enough, "however, to urge that the permission ought to be granted, seeing that the clerks in the public works department itseli freely indul- ged in the weed. The result was that Mr. Tarte, who adds to his abhor rence of tobacco smoke a jealous re gard for his ministerial authority, went to council and insisted upon get ting through an order making the offence of smoking in the government buildings punishable by suspension or dismissal. No doubt the auditor-gene ral"s stafi mew considers it would have been better to let sleeping degs hie. An imperial army order is publigh- ed in the Canadian militia ordérs, abolishing, among other articles of uniform, frock coats, of all regimental patterns, red and blue serge frocks, all undres belts. except of Sam Browne pattern, brass spurs, geld laced trousers throughout the en- ire service, forage cans except of stafl pattern, ficld caps, all patrol jac- kets except for rifle regiments, full dress sash, undress sash, full dress sword belt and slings for infantry ex- cept Highland Scottish and rifle regi ments.
