AUS- Once a Homeless Canadian Waif-- She Is The Adopted Daughter Of The Wife Of Lord North- cote. ° Lady Northcote, lady of the Impér- ial Order of the Crédwn of India, who Is to preside o¥er the social destin- les of Australia during the period Lord Northcote, her husband, will he Governor-General of the Australian Commonwealth, is one of fortuhe's favorites. Her career is associated with one of the most romances connected with the British peerage. It is not quite half a century since a homeless mite, found wandering in the streets 6f Montreal, was succored in the comfortable residence of Mr. - George Stephen, who was to, be lat- of president of the Canadian Pacific Railway, and who is now Lord Mount Stephen. There were no children in the Ste- phen household, and the kind-hearted couple treated the winsome blue- eyed child with a tenderness which rapidly developed iato an affection almost paternal. For several years the exact sthius of Alice in the Ste- phen menage was not defined, though from the first she was never regarded as a menial. Her bright manner and winning ways unconsciously laid siege to the hearts®of her ber volent protectors, who eventuully decidod to adopt her as their ow daughter. The decision taken, prompt measur- €8 were adopted to secure for the happy child the. best possible edu- | cation available im order to fit her for the high social position which would be hers. Being of bright dis- position and "naturally intelligent she benefited by, the upporturiities given her. She was now the bright- st. ornament in the Stephen home. ley loved her more und more as the years sped on and she recipro- cated their affection. To them she v "Alice, dear; ' to her 3 ere Father, dear," and "Mother, dear." George Stephen prospered immense= ly Of Scottish extraction, his shrewdness" and sagacity won him wealth. When his Canadian business was firmly dstablished Le, with his wife and- Alice, went, to England to In 1886 he was created, a and five years afterwards he was elevated to the peerage with the title of Daron Mount Stephen of Mount phen, British Columbia, and Duff Town, Panfl, Scotland, he and Lord Strathcona being the oply two Canadians in the British pecr- age. At this period he entertained lavish- ly Carlton Honse Terrace, a few doors from where the Curzons subsequently resided Alice, who had developed into a bright, vivacious girl, was now one at his palatial mansion, No. '17 of the belles of London society. Her beauty, which was of the clear-cut, refined, Canadian type, brought many swains, several being the scions of England's oldest and noblest families to her feet. In her third season she 'was wooed and won by young Stafford Northcote, second son of the dis- tinguished British' statesman, Lord Iddesleigh, better known as Sir Staf- ford Northcote, who filled many im- portant ministerial offices in the Conservative 'Govériments of thé seventies and eighties, and: who was a personal and estg¢bmed friend of the late Queen Victoria, Northcote and Alice were married in 1873, the .elite of London being present at the ceremony. She receiv- ed a substantial settlement Lord Mount Stephen, as well as splendid town house in Seamore Place, a few doors from Alfred Rothschild's, as a personal wedding gift. It was in all respects a most happy union. Northcote was young and ambitious, and he was helped by his wife's tactfulness and social ac- complishments in no small degree. Northcote passed from position to position, each more important tham that which preceded it. He was at- tached to the Marquis of Ripon's special mission to arrange the Ala- bama treaty and was secretary to Queen Victoria's claim commission, under the treaty of Washington. He accomplished Lord Salisbury as pri- vate secretary on his embassy to Constantinople in 1878, after which he was appointed to the diplomatic service. . He acted as private secre- tary to his father when Chancellor of the Exchequer, 1877-18860. Sub- sequently he was. financial secretary to the War Oflice, and was member of Parliament for Exeter for nine years. Then he was appointed Gov- erstor of Bombay, and given a 'peer- age, {with the title of Baron North- cote, in 1900, and was selected to fil! the difficult and- delicate position of Governor-General of the Austral- ian Commonwealth in 1903, in the discharge of the duties of which he will have to rely to a considerable extent on the gifts and graces of Lady Northcote.

THE NICKEL INDUSTRY. | Recent Remar ks of Director of Ontario : Bureau of Mines. | Mr. Thomas W, Gibson, Director of | the Ontario Bureau of Mines, has | just returned - from a tour through the mining districts of New Ontario. | He spent over a week: with Dr. Cole- man's party exploring the geological formations included in the nickel | range lying between White Water | Lake and Vermillion fake. "The | principal object of our investigation ! said Mr. Gibson, "was the location of the , acid edge of the eruptive in this lo- | cality. The eruptive rock is the nick- | el-bearing band, the deposits occur- ring on its outer or basic edge. The | acid edge lies next the tuffs, which towards the interior of the basin are followed by slates and sandstones. The country was rough in many parts, both swampy and rocky, but there is a large tract of level and excellent farmihg land enclosed by the eruptive rock which surrounds the elliptical area. The axis of the ellipse runs northeast and south- west. This agricultural area is large- ly taken up by French-Canadians and is now in many places pretty well cleared. The farms would not discredit any part of old Ontario and the crops this year have been immense, especially hay, oats and potatoes. The farmers get far higher t prices for their products than do | those in old Ontario, their "market | being the lumber and mining camps. | "The nickel-mining industry is flour- | ishing," said Mr. Gibson. "The Ca-} nadian Copper Company has just about completed its new and very extensive plant at Copper Cliff. The company draws most ol its ore from the Creighton mine, some . five or six miles away, without doubt the greatest nickél" mine in the world. This mine contains an im- mense hody of rich ore, which so far is beiilg worked as an open cut. The opening is about 250 by 300 feet in area and 60 feet deep, practically all in ore. Below this at a depth of 80! feet further down, a second level has been opened which has been broken through to the floor of-the first lev- cl, the intention being to stops out all of the area between the two lev- els. It is also proposed to open ano- ther smaller pit about 500 feet dis- tant: on the ore body. There are be- tween 250 and 300 roast heaps of oré burning in the Copper Cliff roast yards. "The Mond Nickel Company is op- erating the North Star mine and conveying the ore to Victoria mine. The Dessemerizing part of the Mond Company's plant is being used to treat the Canadian Copper Com- pany's mass pending the installation of converters in the latter com- pany's works."' . Mr. Gibson alsa visited the Massey Station copper mine, where some five levels have béen run, a large quan- tity of moderate grade ore being found, and the Hermina copper mine, where the shaft is down 140 feet and is being sunk on a rich but some- what narrow vein 'of cooper ore. At the Shakespeare gold mine, near Webbwood, work is being vigorously pushed. The ore pans gold readily, even where there is no visible gold. The development of water power is making considerable advance in new Ontario. At Webbwood, on the Spanish River, the pulp company is arranging to utilize several thou- sand horse-power. At the High Falls on the Spanish River also the de- velopment of power is rapidly pro- gressing. At Wahnapitae the Canada Copper Company has almost com- pleted a very extensive power plant and at Vermillion considerable pow- er is to be utilized for lighting Sud- bury .and fer the supply of power to that town. A New Ontarie Celebrity. A notable figure has just died in Fort William, Ont., in the person of "Rags,"' a Scotch terrier, who had a history which was very curious. Some ten years ago while Colin Bea- ton and. a party were doing some work in the woods on 'Thunder Cape, Rags first came upon the scene. He was then full growm, and was wand- ering wild through the bush, living in some manner beg known to the ingenuity of his breed. He was first noticed in the sumtner time, but no blandishments availed to get him in- to camp, and he was as'wild as any of his wolf angestors. When winter came and food was scarcer, Rags was more often near the camp, foraging last, when the soft deep snow made it hard for him to move round, the dog was run down, and after a fierce battle was clubbed into submission, and carried 'off, a captive, into camp, Contact with humanity made him Fe- vort to' the customs of -civili tion, and he became Colin Beaton's cen stant and faithful comrade in 'every camp where he was in charge from that time forth, Lately, however, old age made him more willing to enjoy the comforts of town life, and Ne died & civilized death; and was given a civilized burial. Whence he came is a mystery, as no other dogs of his breed were at the time of his advent on the scene in the vicinity of the town, and he was no mongrel, but showed in his coat and well set up 'legs, as well as in his gentle- manly demeanor, that he came of a good breed. Colin Beapbm's sugges- tion is the only one which scems likely to account for him; that he was being brought up here by some boat, and falling or jumping over- board by the Cape, -was compelled by circumstances, sustained by his own brave spirit, to fend for himself with the other wild things of the woods. His Kxperienee, '"There are some songs that will never die,' said the musical enthus- iast. . "I guess that's; right," > answered Mr. Cumrox. "My" daughter sits down at the piano and tries to kill a few of 'em every evening. But it's Too Much for Nim. "So Dates has givep up autoing?" "Yes; between rupning down pedes- trians and running . up repair bills the expenses was too much for him," A woman who is weak, nervous and sleepless, and who has cold hands and feet, cannot feel and act like a well person. Carter's Tron Pills equalize the circulation, remove nervousness, and { party was FROM ONTARIO HE HELD A PLACE IN BRIT- John Fannin Was _ For Many Years Curatér Of "ie Museu At Victoria, British Colum. bia, : To the Province of Ontario. the Younger Province of Dritish Co- lumbia is indebted for many of its sterling pioneers, but of them all, none will linger longer in the loving memory of the poople that he served than John Fannin, until a few - months curator of the Provin- cial Museum in Victoria. Mr. Fannin was da native of Kemptville, where he was born on July 27, 1837, and it is to his sister, Letitia Fannin, of that town, that almgst all of his modest estate passes through the terms of his will. 4 Other men who served the province did so in fields in which one supple- mented the work of the other. But ""Jack'* Fannin filled a unique niche, inasmuch as he was not only the pioneer in his particular line, but that he was practically the creator of the fine muse which is one of the sights 'of Victoria, admired by visitors from all parts of the world. The story of his arrival in the pro- vince gives a fair index of his char- acter. The discoveries of gold in Cariboo in 1859 had fired the fancy of Eastern Canadians and residents of the United States. The best route thither was via Panama, but in 1861 an adventurous gompany- set out by way of' Detroit, St. Paul and Fort Garry, intent on reaching the new gold fields by a Canadian overland journey. John Fannin was of their number... A start was made in May, and by July 22 Edmonton had been reached. They' crossed the Rockies via the Yellowstone Pass, and in August reached Cariboo. Of that A. B. McMicking, now manager of the telephone system in Victoria, and J. P., Victoria, both of whom followed the remains of their old comrade to the grave a few days ago. Mr. Fannin engaged in Cariboo, and afterwards drifted to the Coast. When at Burrard Inlet, not far from where Vancouver now stands, he plied his trade as a shoe- maker. .It is not chronicled that he rade much money at his trade, for he had not the passion for gold, but it is on record that here, as in the wards engaged," he did his work well. Fon. Robert Beaven, who as Chief Commissioner of Lands and survey Cassiar, and other parts of the province, is explicit on that point. "John Fannin," he says, "made very good &%oes; he made some of the best explorations carried out in the province; he was a good mingr. I need an excellent taxidermist and natural historian. Whatever he undertook he did well." It was while aged in his humble trade as shoemaker that he com- menced the work with which his name will be linked So long &8 Dritish fell before his gun on his long trips through the woods and on his ex- ploring expeditions. These attracted the attention of the Government of the day, and in 1886 he was ap- pointed to bring into existence a museum of the fauna of the province. Of that collection his own formed the nucleus, and it was on and around this that the. present magnificent showing grew. Almost every one of the thousands of specimens mow ac- commodated in the eastern block of the Parliament Buildings has been mounted by hissown hands, from the lordly moose; elk and musk ox to the tiniest of the crustacea. John Fannin was a lover of the woods, and of the mountains. He delighted to fish and to hunt. He loved nature with the passionate love of the live sportsman and stud- ied her with the exacting care of the keen scientist. His contributions to natural history publications were eagerly welcomed by the ablest men in the profession, and it is only a year or two ago that the scientific bodies of New York christened a new species of mountain sheep "'Ovis Fan- nini,"" in honor of the veteran tax- idermist who has done so much to accugately define and classify the na- tucal life of the province. Of recent years he has had some assistance in his 'work from the Na- tural History Society of British Columbia, an organization which he was<ihstrymental in creating, 'and which heartily co-operated in' his work: Tt ig, the intention of this body to perpetuate his memory by giving a series of prizes in natural history in the Public Schools, to be known as the John Fannin Memorial. r------------ Ontario's Immigration, The growth of immigration to On- tario during the last few years is strikingly shown by the following figures given out by the Commis- sioner of Crown Lands.

Prize Markswoman of Bisley, The meeting of the National Rifle Association at Bisley was -hote- worthy this year for the advent of markswomen, who have graced the ranges, says a London writer. One of them has in a remarkable way proved her prowess. There has been no serious lady competitor at Bisley since Miss Leale of Guernsey invaded the firing point during the early nineties. Women, it is true, have since appeared on the range from year to year, but! they have been more noticeable for their A.

She is young, tall and handsome, and her figure, athletic but graceful, has -added an interest to the ranges whore usually wan holds undisputed sway. Miss Lewes shoots in a brown costume, belted at the waist, and her jacket is fitted with leather eol- bow patches. serviceable kit she is finding work for the markers in patching up the bull's eye. Soon after gun-fire Miss Lewes rides up on her bicycle from Pirbright village, where she is a guest in a pretty villa. the range, she prepares her rifle i the orthodox - fashion, without sistance. A glanee at; the flags tells her how ; much allowance to make for wind, and from her satchel is produced a vernier and pencil, with which aiming line is carefully drawn on the back-sight bar.

Miss Lewes soon settles to the shooting, ahd it is quite evident that she enjoys it | keenly. She has the steady and the clear eye of the born shot, and as she covered her target at 200 yards on Saturday quite a host of to watch her scoring bulls. She missed the centre ring only throo times, and in each case the shot was the closest possible inner. The score titors failed to eéyual. Miss Lewes' entry into the ranks of the shootists was - prompt: sound, practical motive. 7 "You see, 1 am going to Canada to settle there," she explained to a well known shot. "Out on the open I expect to lead a delightful life, but I know that it is necessary to be a good horsewoman and to know how to use the riflé. "I therefore joined the South Lon- don Rifle Club. I was"the first lady member, but my exafaple has been followed. Defore that I had never handled a rifle. I placed myself under the tuition of Private Gray of the London Scottish, and I cannot tell you what I owe to that fine marks- man, He is a' wonderful teacher. The courtesy and encouragement of the othér members were never-failing. "For two months I shot" regularly at the Staines ranges, and was very successful in the weekly matches held there. I possess nine spoons as trophies." With. a smile Miss Lewes added that if she félf any approach to nervousness at Bisley it was simply due to the consciousness, not that people were watching her, but that 'she was shooting in a competition and might fail. "In my short experience at the tar- gets," she said, "IT have always found a tell-tale evidence of having been in any degree flurried in... the form jo! leaving behind me at the ranges little things among the ne- cessary impediments of a person who shoots.
