A Montreal judge has rendered what has been called: "a queer judgment." There came before him a breach of promise case. - The plaintiff was a woman of forty, and her grievance was that che had been trified with by a man, that he had not only refused to marry her, according to arrange- ment, buf had - borrowed £562 from her and caused her a loss in business (dressmaking) and respect which she figured at $1,900, The issue, before the court, became largely one of account, and the learn. od judge proceeded to estimate the damages. Ho allowed that the plain- ff could recover all of the barrowed money, oven though some of it had been spent in a horse and rig with which she had been divesbed. But he out down the claim for loss of busi- ness and trousseau from $1,900 to $165, and gave only $100 for injury to her feelings, on the ground that she was no longer young, that she was very willing to marry the man, and that the smaller sum would compen- sate her for her loss. A woman of forty may not be so charming as one at twenty-five or thir- ty, but she is none the less entitled to consideration. Age is not the ad- x vantage or disadvantage which the a Ld Padi Joan who judge assumed.

William Waldie, the Gananoque man who murdered his wife and two chil- : and then committed suicide, was well-known to several Kingstonians. A number of citisms, in conversation with the Whig. stated that they were acquainted with Waldie, and they could hardly realize the truth of the terrible reports sent out from Ganan- oque. "He was a good man and. held the respect of a la circle of friends," said ome in ing of the cake, "and as far as'T am aware of, he always cot along well with his wife and fam- ily. It is indeed very hard to think that he could do such a terrible thing." He had been manager of the Horace Greeley farm a few miles from New York City, where he married his wife, then a girl of eighteen. Waldie came originally from Gangnowue, and two years ago returned. He had been swe cessful as a farmer, and no financial and other troubles are known of which in any way could explain the tragedy. Waldie, always a man of temperate habite and genial disvosition, had re. cently been treated by Dr. Sinclair for nervous prostration. : Moth Bags.

That it was really misunderstood is shown by the fact that its provisions, wherever ex- plained, were unanimously 'approved Mennwhile: there may well be gener- ous recognition of what the "deputy minister has accomplished os the working head of a department of the public service which grows in im- portance antl usefulpess. His gootl work has won encomiume from hoth political partics. Mr. Borden, the leader of the opposition, has repent- edly praised Mr. King's "strong per- sonality." his capable management of his department and his splendid ger- vice to the country. In the correspon- dence between the imperial and dom- inion ~rovernments, Lord Elgin, the eslbnial secretary, compliments the deputy minister on his services to both governments»in his official mis sion to Fneland last autumn. Mr. King's conciliation settlement of in- dustrial disputes all over the JDomin- ion, and the prominent and eminently nseful nart in commissions of inquire here and elsewhere. are matters of 'ndustrial history. The civil services of Canada cannot have in its ranks too many men of his mental and moral equipment, fertility of resource and high sense of public duty. To Cure A Cold In One Dav.
