Montreal, Aug. 22.--A warrant was issued for the arrest of Berard Rose, a labor agitator on the charge of ki belling Harris Vineberg, a wholesale clothing dealer. Rose published an article in the Weekly Bulletin of the Slathing trade, accusing Vineberg of ling his employees to contribute to othe Kishinell funds. Vineberg claims that his employees themselves asked to be allowed to work an extra half day, the money to go to the fund. One hun- dred and seventeen dollars was thus raised. MOWAT ANECDOTES. Sallies Made by Sir Oliver Mowat on Public Occasions. The authorized biographer of Sir Oliver Mowat, Mr. C. R. W. Biggar, X.C., when seen recently, kindly re- lated, fromithe extensive manuscript and collected material at his hand, several incidents mot widely known. "'Sir Oliver," he said, "was able to write at five years-old, and many Kingstonians. have told me of the picture; still fresh in their mind, of the liftle, curly-headed .boy, sitting on the counter of his father's shop and ¥ogding 'with 'a Scottish accent and :much; dramatic expression - the letters of the Rev. Wm. Dunlop, pub- lished under. the pen name of Sek Woodsman in' The . Edinburgh Scotsman, 'recounting ~the 'early ex- of a Presbyterian in the oods of Canada. 1836, at the age of sixteen, a: land Scotch' company was form- in Kingston, and Sir Oliver was of its members, and, I think, 'of its officers, His Highland uni- form of that date is still preserved the family, but it was soon dis- Car for the starlet coat of a Licu- tenant in the 1st Frontenac Battal ion, 'formed in 1837, and in 1840, when the monument of Sir Isaac Brock and Lieut.-Col. Macdonnell was restored, Sir Oliver carried the. colors in the battalion in which he had just received his conunission. "North Oxford is full of stories about Sir Oliver's readiness and wit. In spite of his blindness, he seldom failed to" recognize a friend, and if he did so, could turn it off with a compliment . which always went home. The strongest Conservatives in the riding have been among his warmest friends, and have always re- garded him as one of their own par- ty. Mr. Wm. Gray, now 92 and for many years Mayor of Woodstock, is among the Conservatives who al- ways supported and esteemed Sir Oliver, and he has a number of good political stories which it would be a misfortune to lose. "At the nomination meeting in 1873, when he was opposed by Ale- Kellar, also a' Liberal, he made sal- lies on' the members of the Sanfield Magdpnald Cabinet, and one of his telling shots was that as they had one Reformer in the Cabinet of five, and they had had pretty good legis- lation, what would they expect if they multiplied that by four, and got five straight Grits? The arithme- tical problem was so simple and ef- fective that 4t brought a hearty re- sponse. "On the occasion of the famous in- terview in April, 1893, between the Prohibitionists and Sir Oliver, when the latter promised prohibitory leg- islation 10 the extent of the ascer- tained powers of the Province, the Premier read a carefully prepared statement in reply to fervent speeches by Mrs. May Thornley, Rev. Dr. Mackay and others. At the con- clusion Dr. Mackay rose and re- 'quested permission to ask a ques- tion. 'Yes,' replied Sir Oiiver, 'ask me something out of the Shorter, Catechism, for I know that by heart.' The laughter which followed broke the strain of the occasion and disarmed the critics." -------------- FOUNDERS OF ONTARIO My, C. C, James Tells an Interesting Story of Early Upper Canada. Mr. C. C., James, Deputy Minister of Agriculture, recently drew in a re- cent lecture he delivered in Toronto an interesting picture of the origin and methods of the founders of On- tario and the conditions under which they laid the foundations of the so- cial and economic erganization of to-day. Ton those days the Women were married in homespun gowns, deerskin petticoats, and squirrelskin honnets. Preachers were scarce, and Magistrates performed the ceremony, and so inadequate were the records kept that it was deemed wise in 1798 by act of Parliament to legal- ize all marriages made previous thereto. Despite the plainness and severity of, the life those old people looked back with regret to the time when there were no doctors, no lawyers and very few preachers, when people "said prayers at home and trusted in Providence." He also told of the great emigration to Can- ada from Great Britain, extending from 1815 to 1860, and to in- terest in Mve stock of those British settlers he attributed in great part the present prosperity of Ontario. -------- Fine Fruits in the Yukon. Tn an entertaining address before the Committees on Agriculture and Colonization at Ottawa recently, Professor John Macoun, naturalist of the Geological Survey, dealt with the agricultural pessibilities of the Yukon. Ripe wheat, oats and bar- Vey, gathered near Dawson, had pro- duced vigorous growth when germin- ated at the Experimental Farm. The professor had also found fine timber far up on the mountain side. Horses thrived and grew fat upon the native grass~which was three and four feet long. Samples of fine red currants were produced. Blueberries and raspherries also ripened, and flowers bloomed about the same time ad the 'same species did in. On to the influence of the evra chai between Dawson and tated. the ro | .

Edwards and Miss Edith Wilson of Ottawa were the recent guests of Mr. and Mrs, D. W, Robinson. Senator Ed. wards is Vice-President of the Rob- inson-Edwards Lumber Company, and has extensive lumber interests in Canada. Ile was appointed Senator last winter and has been prominent in political affairs in Canada for years. The following story about Senator Bdwards is circulating in the lumbermen's papers: W. C. Edwards of Ottawa, one ol the newly appointed Senators, is a Juxiberman who operated far up the Gatineau River, and he tells this story of a shantyman who had spent a couple of seasons working for him in the bush, and was coming out again shortly after the death of Queen Victoria: At Maniwaki the shantyman made his first stop on the way down, and in a chat with the hotelkeeper ask- ed what was the news since he had gone to the woods. "Oh, there's nothing much new. I s'pose you heard up there that the Queen was dead?' ""No, you don't tole me de Queen was dead! I'm sorry I hear dat; I'm sorry. She was a good woman, de Queen, and a good Queen, too. Well, we'll all die some tam, even de Queen." After: a short, respectful pause, he asked, 'An' who's got de job now ? Who's de head now?" "Ok, Edward's the King now. It's King Edward for the last thrée months."' '"Bdwards de King! Well, well, you don't tole me Edwards' de King! He's a beeg man in de lumber bees- ness, but I never expect to hear of him be de King. What a pull dat man Edwards mus' have with Laur- fer!"--Burlington (Vt.) Free Press. nt ------ Great Canal System, Canada's canals and waterways are perhaps unequalled in the world, and far ahead of anything possessed by the United States, the canal system of Canada permitting ocean steam- ers of large size to penetrate to the head of Lake Superior, or nearly one-half the distance across the con- tinent, so giving Canada, with the St. Lawrence River and basin, an inland coast line unequalled by any other country, and of immense ad- vantage in the way of cheap trans- portation between all parts of the country. Canada's advantages from her wat- erways have not been taken sufficient advantage of in the past, but are now coming to the front, and it is amongst the probabilities of the fu- ture that through Canada will flow the bulk of the trade in grain and other produce requiring cheap trans- portation, not only from the Cana- dian west but also from the western States of the United States. A glance at the map will show, writes. Mr. Robert Reford of Montre- al in The Globe, that the great grain depots are situated on Lakes Superior, Michigan, Huron, etec., and that the shortest and most direct route of shipment to Europe is through the Canadian ports of Mon- treal and Quebec in summer and Halifax and St. John in winter. Three of our great railways have come to recognize the fact that, with proper facilities, . the trade of the west with Europe is in their hands, and they are now making arrange- ments for the cheaper and quicker carriage of grain by large freighters on the lakes to depots on the Georgi- an Bay, whence the grain is trans. ported by rail to Montreal and Que- bec, greatly shortening its transit to port of shipment, and decgeasing cost of same. ------------ Passengers and the Icebergs, The comments of the passengers when an ocean steamer passes an ice- berg are often curious. If the weath- er is fine and the distance sufficient for safety, while convenient for the observation, the sight is taken as a spectacle arranged for the edification of the onlookers. So! are dis- appointed. They expected something more dramatic, turrets perhaps when flat surfaces are seen or ragged ed- ges where the waves may be sliding over smoothness Others go into ecstasies of delight over the ever changing pictures presented to their view. But the master of the ship looks on the berg as his natural en- emy and calculates the chances of others being met with later on. When the passengers are slecping the officers watch that harm comes not nigh, and this spring they have enough to do as the icebergs are very numerous in the line of travel between Liverpool and Canada. The litticness of man's work as compared with that of the Creator is nowhere more apparent than when a ship, perhaps a great ocean liner, falls in with a fleet of these levia- thans of the ocean. . Fab Our Field Sperts. Field sports attract a large num- ber of our people, says The Mail and Eanpire. If lacrosse is not in such a condition as its best 'friends,could wish, it is still the gicatest o¥igiit- door games, and occupies first place in the hearts of true Canadians Baseball appeals to the masses with irresistible force. As a sport the wheel is as dead as the discus, but hardly less of a necessity than the sewing machine. This country is none the worse for its love of sport. So long as our games and those who play them are clean they should be protected and encouraged. Educa- tion is not more important to Ce sadians than their outdoor life.

And the representatives of these firms, if they are to be successful in the French Province, must speak the language. Toronto employers have had great diftculty in ohf fining traveling salesmen who Would be able to talk to the French-Canadian merchant in his own tongue. They had plenty of bright, alert, pushing young fellows, but they had only the language that their fathers taught them. All the things being equal, the young man who knows French will stand a muh better chance of doing business in Quebec than will his competitor, who compels his customer to speak a language that is alien ta his lips. The French-Canadian merchant in a small town does not attempt to speak English more than once a month or so. He is gratified to find an Fnglish-speaking salesman ac quainted with his own tongue; so that the Fremch-speaking man from Ontario stands in with a manifest advantage. So far, many of the On tario firms have beep forced to en- gage French-Canadian travelers to cover the tervitory, "he recruit is usually earnest and enthusiastic, but he is not so efficient as the man who has been brought up in his employ- er's business, and served years at his apprenticeship before heing sent oct on the road.

The man who has nothing but English at his command, will have to depend largely on his French-Canadian assistants or fore- men.

It is something that pretty nearly any man possessing a High School education should. be able to achieve in six months. If he knows his Lat- in grammar pretty well, he will be immeasurably helped. But even if he has no Latin, he will do well to take up French. He will be richer financially and mentally. One of Canada's Jurists. The Lieutenant-Governor of Que- hec, Sir Louis Jette, who is to the front as one of Canada's jurists in the Alaskan Boundary dispute, is not known outside of his Province extept by name. He is far more of a judge than a politician, in tem- perament and attainments. one episode in his political career which brought him fame was his defeat of the late Sir George Cartier in Mont- real East in the general elections of 1872. Then a young avocat, com- paratively obscure, Jette Was brought out hy the Liberals agains the French Tory leader, whose pres- authority in Quebec were then similar to Sir John Macdon- ald's in Ontario. Cartier had deeply offended his church by declin- fng to intervene to save parate schools for the New: Brunswick Ca- tholics. He had also fncurred the hostility of the militia, and the late Colonel Dyde, of Montreal, and Col- onel G, T. Denison, of Toronto, went quietly into the constituency and worked against him. Cartier was left in a minority of 1.250 votes-- they never do things by halves in Quebec--and young Jette woke up to find himself famous. He was made a judge by the Mackenzie Government in September, 1878, resigning from the Bench in 1898 to succeed Sir Adolphe Chaplean at Spencerwood. He is 67 years ol.
