The successful modern lawyer is the most highly-paid brain-worker in the world. There was_ a time when the lawyer sought to charge each particu- lar client all that he thought the cli ent would pay. The lawyer of to-day aims to charge so that his account will appear on the profit side of his client's ledger. William Nelson Cromwell is to re- ceive $2,000,000 for selling the rights of the Panama Canal company to the United States. But for Mr. Cromwell's extraordinary patience and skill, the Isthmian canal might have been built through Nicaragua, and the Panama Canal company would have remained in its defunct condition. William D. Guthrie received 8£1,000,- 000 for his victory for the widow in breaking the will of Henry B. Plant As a result, Mrs. Plant obtained £7,.- 000,000 or £X,000,000. ut for Mr, Guthrie, her share of. the estate would have been exceedingly small. James B. Dill is credited with having been paid $1,000,000 for settling the dispute between Andrew Carnegie and Henry Frick. A legal fight would pro- bably have resulted disastrously to every one eoncerned. It is not known how much Francis Lynde Stetson is paid as the general counsel of J. Pier pont Morgan, though it is estimated in Wall street that Mr. Morgan gives him an annual retainer of £350,000 merely for first call upon Mr. Stetson's time, all actual services being paid for in addition. The supply of lawyers does not ex- teed the cemand. In 1890 thefe were 8.630 members of the bar in the Unit- ed' States, or one to every 698 of the population. Accordifig to the census of 1900 the total number was 111,703, or 6ne to every 659 of the population. here is and will be for a long time Plenty of work for the good lawyers to do.--The World's Work. nous J.

Munro in Kingston. is spending Nature's Noble Woman. An inspiring story of courageous de- termination to make one's self useful, despite all discouragements, was told by Mr. Booker Washington in a recent speech at Carnegie hall, New York. Years ago there had been a student at Tuskegee, Anna Davis. She could not meet the requirments for graduation, but she accepted failure, not as an ex- for relaxation of effort, but as an incentive to make the most of what she had. "1 have some education," she said pathetically, "" I will go where it may be useful." She went into the black belt of Alabama and picked out the most hopeless, degraded commun- its. She found the men poverty- stricken and illiterate, and unable to us: to advantage what little they had. They mortgaged their crops every vear to pay the rents of their hovels. She installed herself in a tumble-down log schoolhouse, and won the interest of the children. Next she induced par- ents to come there to a meeting. She taught them enough arithmetic to know the value of their scant earnings and to appreciate the folly of mortgages and improvidence. She had learned something of agriculture "at Tuskegee and she taught them that. She went from cabin to cabin to teach by example a better way of living. What was the result of that one girl's courage in an apparently hopeless con- dition? In three or four years a frame schoolhouse replaced the old log wreck and all the children were going to school eight months a year instead of idling as before. The crops had in- |' creased, the community was out of debt. Frame cottages had taken the places of miserable shanties and the people owned something. What a beuti- ful service it was, all the grander in its character for being humble and un- known. The Seatch reveremee for Gladstone is displayed in this conversation be- tween two Scotchmen. One of them said, with much emphasis, *" There has na heen a lawgiver equal to Mr. Glad- the Lord, but Mr. Gladstone make this city, from Kingston, will leave the foot of stone since the day o° Moses." | Brock street on Sunday morning at "Moses! retorted the other; | S30 sharp.

ARMY SERVICE CORPS GO IN- TO CAMP ON 25TH. em Chaplains Will Draw Pay For Camp Duty--All Permanent Corps Are Under Strength Notes About The 14th Regi- ment. It is just thirty years ago since the Wimbledon team sailed © from Quebec for England on the SS. Circassian, under the command of Lieut. -Col. Gil- mour, Queen's Own Rifles, Toronto, and Maj. Montizambert. of the Cana- dian Artillery, Quebec, as second of- ficer. The latter was no other than Kingston's "Monty." Victor M. Drury, of Kingston, has been appointed an officer in the sig- nalling Corps for military district, No. -- v 'No. Army Service Corps, hes into camp here next Saturday after- noon to get things ready for the rest of the troops who enter on the fol- lowing Tuesday. Capt. Dean, now of Ottawa, will come here to take com- mand of the corps. 2 ~The new uniforms of the New York State militia will be olive drab, The Canada Military Gazette con- tains a sketch of a noted infantry of ficer, George, Baron de Rottenburg, who was the only son of Maj.-Gen. De Rottenburg, a British officer who ser- ved in Canada for some ten years in the early part of the nineteenth cen tury, and who was president of the council of Upper Canada, succeeding Maj.-Gen. Sir Roger Hales Sheafie, from June 14th, I813, to December 13th in the same year, a period of exactly six months. George De Rot- tenburg was born in Kingston, in 1807, and entered the army as ensign in the 81st Regiment of Foot in 1825. After iring from military life 'in 1861, Col. De Rottenburg resided in different parts of England and Ire- land, and about 1880 became a Mili- tary Knight of Windsor, and took up his abode in the quarters provided for the Military Knights in the precincts of the fanrous residence, Windsor Castle. There, in his eighty-eighth vear, he passed away in the latter days of 1894, An official notice has been sent forth, worded in part as follows : Chaplains may attend the camps of instruction, drawing pay for the duty. The chaplain has been allowed all along to become one of the officers' , but he received neither trans- pay, rations, or tent accommo He was mamificently allowed to buy his own uniform ahd attend the camps if he saw fit, but very much indeed without expense to the government. Now he is to be justly treated. The camp is much the bet: ter by his presence. me port, dation. The R.C.F.A. is not the only part of the Canadian permanent force that is under strength. The infantry at London, and the Dragoons at Toron: to are away below their proper num- ber. [It is hard nowadays to secure permanent sohficrs during times of peace. Major Morris, appointed command ant of the Orange River Colony Vol unteers, is a graduate of the Roval Military College, Kingston, from which he received a commission in the De i t. He served with his regiment in Egypt and India, tak ing part in the Chitral campaign. On the breaking out of the war in South A pn, he went with his regiment th: and was at first stationed in .adysmith; but was subsequently at ed to "Thorneyeroft's Horse' as adjutant, which corps he assisted in raising. He took part in the engage ments at Colenso and Spion Kop On the close of the war he was ap pointed to the command of the South African Constabulary at Bloemfontein h i To-day is the anniversary of the battle of Waterloo, fought on Sunday, June 18th, 1815. What a contrast be tween the hand-to-hand struggle of those days and the fighting, now going on in the far east, between Japan and Russia, where they are wiping out whole regiments at a distance of sev eral miles. A great deal of uncertainty seems to exist as to how many men will now coniprise a company. For the benefit of the doubtful we offer the following Each company of infantry will have two captains, three lieutenants, one color sergpant, five sergeants, six cor porals, two buglers and thirty pri vates. These figures are the correct personnel of a company under the new establishwent. The 14th Regiment will likely have their inspection during the next week The dates have not yet been set. Lietit. Col. Kent has obtained a short leave of absence on account of ill health. Both officers and men wish him a speedv recovery, and an early return to duty, as he has proven him self to be a most painstaking and of ficient officer this season. During the absence of Col. Kent. the command of the regiment will fall to the popular and competent senior major, Major A B. Cunningham. The 14th Regiment is now almost up to strength, on a peace footing, and will be one of the largest regiments at inspection that they have ever turned out. There are about twenty vacancies in the 14th Regiment for officers, There would be ho difficulty in filling these at an carly date if a provisional school could be opened here during the coming fall or winter. Many desirable voung men who cannot afford to go away to qualify would be glad to come into the 14th Regimtnt and qual ifv if the class could be secured for en The boat bearing the 14th Reciment A train carrying them from Cape Vin: cent to Syracuse. They hope to reach the latter city in time for dinner, as faster timv than schedule will be made by their special. Captain Anderson, the deservedly popular commander of No. 3 company of the 14th Regiment, leaves next week for England. His company reeret his absence m them on their trip, and all ranks in the regiment wish him "bon voyage." The 14th Regiment will have batta- lion drill on Monday night instead of Tuesday, on account of the ball at the Royal Military College, being held on the evening of the latter Mate. The St. Andrew's Highland Cadets sf had a large turnout last night and have now suspended drill till the open- ing of school in September, A large quantity of new material has been or- dered from Scotland and will be made into new uniforms upon arrival. Captain Healy, of the 47th, is tak- ing a good company to camp this year. He is a very ghnial and energetic officer, Capt, T. V. Anderson, "C" com- pany, 14th Battalion, has been grant: ed leave of absence irom next Thurs- day. His father commands the Bisley team from Canada, and he will go to England with him. TOLD IN THE TWILIGHT. (Continued from page 3). Massie was hostess at an ex- sleasant little thimble tea in honour of her Sweet and Miss Mrs. tremely on Tuesday, given two visitors, Mrs. Sweet, of Winchester, . . A fortunate little debutante was Miss Kathleen McParland, who last night, according to good old custom, made her first bow to society in her own mother's drawingroom. The pretty little golden-haired maid looked love ly, as, of course, all debutantes do, in a Paris frock of white tulle, over white satin, with ruchings and narrow flouncings of the tulle encircling the skirt, and graduating up towards the back. A caress fold of soft satin headed the flpunce, and was caught here and there with a knot. The bo dice was of the tulle, with full winged sleeves, and like the skirt had trim mings of Valenciennes lace, and a high girdle 'of the satin. In the bright hair was a wreath of roses, and about her throat one of the many gifts showered upon her in honour of her coming out--a daisy in baroeque pearls with a golden heart, * hanging by a slender thread of gold. Her bou- quet which ear one of six boxes of flowers from New York, which re vealed masses of roses when opened, was of mauve and purple orchids, rare and beautiful, with which were ming led masses of sweet lilies of the valley. Mrs. McParland, wore grey brocade with steel t ning and pearls, Mrs. lan Howden was in orange-tinted chiffon, with diamond ornaments. Miss Lambert, Mrs. Me Parland's tall dar-eyed American vis itor, wore black. pointe d'esprit, sparkling with jet, and Miss Gertrude McParland was in a frock of black sequined lace and wore pearls. Palms and flowers were everywhere, white and pink tinted peonies, with honeysuckle, adorning the ballroom. Supper was served downstairs, and never did sup perroom dtcorations incite to greater patriotism. Flags were everywhere, covering the walls, curtaining win- dows, draping doorways.
