Ross--Spending Much Money in the West--Firemen to Have a Union. Toronto, Dec. '10.--Miss Ada Nor- man, aged eighteen, was fatally burned yesteraay, at her home on Elm street. A towel she was holding caught fire from the range and igni- ted her clothing. Her mother and sis- ter, in trying to put out the flames, were severely burned. A Globe special dated White Horse, Y.T., December 5th, (via Ashcroft, B.C.). says: After a bitterly-contested fight the election of Hon.

On Tuesday afternoon, a man arrived from Bufitdo, N.Y., and registered at a down town hotel as '""H., City." He afterwards admitted that he came here under orders from a labor headquar- ters to try and get, the Germans away from the works, by offering them posi- tions across the line. In the afternoon, the stranger got into conversation with the Germans at the hotels, as he speaks their lan- guage periectly. He made enticing pro- positions. to them, it is understood. Some of the Germans afterwards ex- pressed themselves as perfectly satis- fied with the treatment accorded them here, and refused to listen to any proposal to "move out."

Mr. Taber and his talented wife decided some years ago that it would be to the professional advan- tage of both to separate, and Mr. Hamilton Ross, as the first member of the Dominion parliament for the Yukon, is assured by a majority of at least 550. There is great rejoicing throughout the Yukon.

The affair is expected to Be held the first week of September, during: the exhi- bition. The Canadian Manufacturers' Asso- ciation intends to press for altera- tions in the Canadian patent law. The complaint is against the require ment that patentees must keep alive their patents in all foreign countries in which these have been obtained. This, it is claiméd, is an unnecessary expense and that foreign patents are frequently allowed to lapse by over- sicht only.

Later in the afternoon, Mr. Ber- mingham visited the hotel, in com- pany with his German interpreter, and had a talk with the stranger. To-day he refused to discuss the mat- ter. This evening, the Buffalo man is to address the Germans in an hotel, when he will lay his propositions fully before them. It is hardly likely he will succeed in enticing away the new arrivals from the "faderland." A Successful Social. The men of Brock Street Methodist ¢hurch, conducted, very successfully, a pie social in the church parlors last evening. The men made coffee, cut pies and served refreshments, as well as provided the programme. Rev. Eb- er Crummy presided and presented a fine array of talent. Those who con- tributed were Messrs. D, Couper, H. Crumley, Hodgson, McIntyre and Da- vies. Short-addresses were. delivered bv Rev. Mr. Philp, T. Brown and Dr. Antlifi. The . attendance was very large, though the weather was stormy. The men found it impossible to dis- pense: altogether with the ladies, so (they 'pressed Mrs." T. R. Carnovsky | into service as accompanist. - - Changes Made. \ It is understood that J. F.

He is a young man. possessing in a rare degree those qualities which nmiake a successful teacher. Mr. Powers will receive the salary paid to separate school inspec- tors, viz, 81,700 per ennum.
