But the Duke of Orleans overstep- ped the bounds some years ago and made a violent and uncalled for at- tack on the late Queen Victoria. In the end, writes the London correspon- dent of Town and Country, he was obliged to leave the country and did not return until he made a most ab- ject apology. This littie incident has not endear- ed him to the British people, who look upon himc<as a person of no ac. count. . But since his refurn he has behaved very well and has lived the life of an ordinary country gentleman, amusing himsell intermittently with the issue of a propunciamentt to "his people' or a little North Pole trip. is father, when in exile in Epg- land, was gore popular. So was Louis Phillipe after the coup d'etat. So was Louis Napoleon, who lived in Loudon, in many social phases, once as a waiter and again as a highly appre- ciated member of the best society of the West end. He never forgot the kindnesses that were extended to him during his stay here, and when he became Emperor of the French his first wish was to come over with the Empress Eugenie and look up his old friends; which he found it difficult to do in the man- ner he liked, for when-he came hete to Windsor he was fairly tied np with court etiquette, from which it was im- possible to escape. I have recently seen a letter from Louis Napoleon to an old London friend from Windsor, in which he, said: "I would much sooner run down to you and have an eyening at ----'s where we could smoke and chat and talk over the times when you and [ were sworn in us special policemen." « Napoleon III. ¢éame into his em- pire. I doubt if the Duke of Orleans will ever do so. One cannot always tell. 1 used to know Peter Karageorge- viteh in the daysewhen he was a sim- ple, unassuming exile in Switzerland. He would talk occasionally of Ser- via as a place where he might with God's will have ruled, b#t he pever expressed the slightest idea that he had an opportunity of ousting the Obrenovitehr dynasty. - Suddenly Alexander was murdered and Peter went in triumph in a spe- cial train direct: from Geneva to Belgrade and there he is now, a real king, covered with medals, recogniz- ed by the Powers and -- wondering how long it will be before he ex- changes his uniform for a frock coat and the Keomak, for his old villa at Genoa. Truly, the life of a pretender is not an enviable one. I have often seen and pitied Don Carlos, the Spanish pretender, who lives in Venice and may be seen. there any day in the week. either dashing up and down the Grand Canal in a motor launch from which flies the "Spanish royal flag, or walking up and down the Piazzetta when the band plays of an evening. » He is invariably accompanied by a magnificent boar hound and very ol- ten by his wife. He maintains a strict little court in his modest house on. the canal and there is something about him that arrests attention, for he seems to earry kingship with him at every. step--a tall, handsome, dig- nifieC man, serious, stern and direct, with kindly eye and strong chin, a man whom novelists" would describe as "every inch a king." LANSDOWNE OBDURATE. Declares Case Against the Lords a Frivolous Ore. Eord Lansdowne, speaking at Shef- feld recently, referred to the threats to end or mend the House of Lords, and said that what made its worse for him was that he supposed he was the leading villain of the Parliamen- tary piece. ~ : They were told that the Lords might repent, but he confessed that he was unrepentant, They might search his luggage in vain fof anything approach- ing a white sheet. The case against the Lords was a frivolous one, bol- steréd up by frivolous arguments, and the frivolity of the indictment was only equalled by the absurdity of the remedy proposed. The majority of the House of Com- mons, particularly when the Parlia- ment wis not young. was not always an idfallible guide to the deliberate judgmént of the country. Lord Lansdowne agreed that there was room fof some improvement in the Houst of Lords, and suggested changes in the distribution of busi- ness between the two Houses. He thought that the work of the House should be dove--{as it was to a Soa, Sxtent now)--by a canéfully seleeta peers--men represents ing their various kinds ol Sxperience ---gskisted in their deliberations by fs chosen by. a less haphazard ion than was sometimes the case in. days. Thus fortified and re- organized, thought the House would continde to possess the fi- dence which the country ex 0 it at present, and come to be regarded #2 an invaluable bulwark agaist rash, hazardous, and subversive proposals.

Clergyman Explores Highest Peak of the Canadien Rockies. Rev. G. R. B. Kinney, B. A, pastor of tae James Bay Methodist Church, of Vietoria, B. C,, is. an explorer as well as a parson. In company with Dr. Coleman, geo- logist of the University of Toronto, and generally considered ope of the first geologists in Canada, and his bro- ther, a big rancher, Who has made a number of similar excursions in past years, Mr. Kinney left Yaggan on Aug. 1 last, and did not return to civilization until the 11th of Deocem- ber, when they arrived at Edmonton. Their objective point was to climb the summit of Mount Robson, a virgin peak and the highest of all the Cana- dian Rockies, said to be 13700 feet above the sea level, Twice they went through the famous Yellow Head Pass, where the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway will be built, passing the pack trains and camps of the sur- veyors, The route through the pass and eastward has been decided upon. The grade is the lowest of any of the Transcontinental Railway routes, Mr. Kinney says, the mverage grade being only one-tenth of one per eent., whilst the steepest anywhere is only four- tenth of one per cent. The scénery is not very rugged, there not being many high mountains in the vicinity. The track will, however, pass a num- ber of beautiful lakes, including Yel- low Head Lake, which is a little west of the pass, a very fine sheet of water eight or ten miles in length. The trains will run along the shore of this lake "as well as of Moose Lake, a larger body of water lying farther west. the waters of whieh flow into the Frazer River. Its shores are cov- ered with timber, largely Douglas fir, right down to the water's edge. Mount Peels is 'a pyramid-like mountain, not far from Yellow Head Lake, a landmark towering far above its fellows, although its height does not exceed 9,000 feet above sea level, Mount Robson is quite near where the new railway will pass. It rises 10,000 feet above the surrounding valley, a truly gorgeous sight with its almost precipitous gides and with the cover: ing of perpelual snow on its upper part. The exploration party climbed as far as the snow line, but the ex- tremely inclement weather made it impossible to even attempt to scale the snow-clad sides. It was a dis- appointment to have to relinquish their object, but the trip was worth the time and trouble given to it. "It would be impossible to attempt t» describe all the new lakes, rivers and cataracts that we discovered." said Mr. Kinny. "I walked the whole distance and there was something happening all the time." PANTHER INVADED HOME. Snatched at Baby But Was Driven Off by Father, Quite a little commotion was caus: ed at MacAdam, N. B., recently by 3 pusther entering the home of Mr. Ed. Irvine, C. P. R. ticket agent. From Mr. Irvine's statement it ap- pears that shortly after reaching his home, which is situated quite close to the woods, ; being uncom- fortably hof,\on account of the soft | weather, ned the door for the purpose of cooling off the room, when there sprang in a large panther, which struck at the baby. Mrs. Irvine, upon entering the room, swooned away, and, Mr. Ir vine, picking up a gifveshaker, threw it at the animal, striking it on the head, enraging the beast. He follow- ed up the attack with a chair, and the snarling animal beat a retreat through the open door. After attending to his wife, Mr. Ir. vine got together a few friends and scoured the woods for a distance, but was not successful in locating the cause of the disturbance. The excite- ment is still great, and it is intended to Organize a posse at once with a view to ridding the vicinity of such a ferocious beast. Prevalence of Perjury. In an address on the evils of per- jury, Bishop Worrell of Nova Scotia, made the following statement recently at Halifax: : *A right conception of God and His word, and a due reverence for thenr, would make perjury . absolutely un- known. The growth of perjury is a terrible thing, and there can be no doubt that it is growing. The other day Judge Riadel) of Toronto stated that it was becoming a most serious problem in the conduct of the courts, and I have heard a well-kfiown lice magistrate of a large city in On. tario declare that it is' impossible to believe people on their oaths, The statement made by a witness in a recent celebrated election trial that he advised his agents, when sworn, to kiss their thumbs instead of the book, and then they would not be guilty of perjury, shows the utterly L unworthy idea such a man has of Him who reads the heart of the man. and judges, not by the outside he platter as to the cleanlin it. "The wholesome dread which the story of Annanias and Sapphira once J oferiad seems to hive but little pow, er to-day--especially in a liquor trial or a ata alociion, A vite Are taken and oaths administered olien in such an irreverent manner that the solemnity which is attached fo is lacking, and the awfulneas of dvoking the name of God in attesta- of man's word is but little rea- sed. There should either be special officers for the administration of oaths, or the farce -that is now so often should be done away with. To swear a man upon a Bible of which he has never read a word, of whieh he has heard but little, and in which he does net , or thinks he does not, can give no weight to Kis evidence. The apostolic 1 tion of perjured persoms in thie same list as the most abandoned and wicked sinners has no effect up- on him." 5 With the Usual Apologies.

Dr. Sheepshanks, Bishep of Nor- wich, who recently. presided over the. Church Congress at Norwich, lived a life of the greatest hardship dunng his missionary career, which. took him among gold miners and Red Indians, to the sacred cities of Mongolia, ¥ the innermost haunts of the Mor mons at Salt Lake City. At a paro- ¢hial gathering he once referred as follows to those arduous' times: "If any lady here wants a lesson in sim- ple cookery--bow to make flapjacks or cook bacon--let her come to me and I will teach her. It was said of a certain king that he was fit to be d king because he had blacked his own boots, and taking that reasoming am more fit to be a bishop than any one here. 1 will tell you why--he- cause I have eobbled my own boots and mended my own breeches, and I have known, when a missionary, what it is to sleep on the ground for months at a stretch without even a blanket to lie upon." Dr. Sheepshanks had a most inter esting experience at the Cariboo mines, when trying to raise funds to build 'a church for the miners. He used to call down to them at their work, asking for a subscription, and back would come a response in the shape of gold-dust screwed up in a piece of paper. At the end of the journey the bishop had eertainly "taken up" the most unique collee- tion on record. His "screws" of gold dust were in due course "credited to the account of the church building | fund at the bank of the colony. On another occasih a smallpox epidemic broke out in an Indian settlement and tke future bishop turned public vaccinator. His lordship proved a successful "medicine-man," for the Indians whom he had vaccinated, and who took the smallpox, recovered, while some who chanced to be absent from the camp, and so eséaped the bishop's lancet, died. The lancet which was broker into the arf of an Indian chief is still treasured at the picturesque "Palace at Norwich. CANADA AND CANADIANS. e---- Chief Justice Fitzpatrick's Address at Ottawa Club. "Canada and Canadians," was 'he subject on which Hon. Sir Charles Fitzpatrick, K. C. M. G., Chief Jus- tice of the Supreme Court of Canada, recently addressed the Canadian Club at Ottawa. He contended the fea. ture of the twentieth' century would be the way Canada would develop. To men who could recall the way the principles of government had advanc- ed since Confederation, that advance- ment was of the greater interest from the period when the King governed and the people were content to obey there had . been progress until the people governed and the King obeyed: The speaker devoted a few moments to quoting statistics comparing® Canada's growth relative- ly with that of the States, and said that what Canada needed was men, men to dig her tunnels and work in her mines. They bad to remember that those Knocking at their doors now, would be the voters of to-morrow and the legislators of the next genera. tion, for all must become Canadian citizens. Sir Charles said he was not op hand to talk either jingoism or imperial- ism, but he thought that thé time had arrived when Canada's loyalty to the British Empire should "be un- questioned. - The great majority of Canadians were neither imperialists or jingoists, put were satisfied to be British sub- jects. * Sir Charle$ hinjed that the Dom: inion should be filled up with men who, when looking for uplifting influ- ences, would chst their eyes towards the east. He hinted that statesmen had now, in the immigration question, a momentous issue before them. He reviewed Canadian history and touch- ed of what Frontenac, Montcalm and others had done for such cities as Montreal, Three Rivers, Quebec, ete. Both England and France had given. of their heart's blood to up hold Cana.a, and now Canadians were a free united people, wanting only to remain forever under the one free flag of the world. LOSSES ON GREAT LAKES. Two Steel and Twelve Wooden Vessels In the List. Two steel and twelve wooden ves- gels are numbered among the total losses on the great lakes for the 1907 season. These boats were valued at $743,000. Leaying the modérn steel freighter Cyprus and the steel freighter Spo- kane out of the reckoning. the loss to the underwriters on the wooden fleet is estimated at less than $343.- 000. The wooden ships were valued at this figure, and some of them were not "insured. The Cyprus was worth $275, 000 and was just out of the shipyards. Where the underwriters were made to wince are the partial losses, mostly |. shrough eollision. These will exceed the amount represented by the total losses. There have been a number of costly collisions, including the sink- ing of the steamers Bethlehem, Mary- land, Moore and Reis. the Tus- carors and the Maryland were given "re De dei show that the onnage ree show th carry- ing capacity of the 13 steamers and ane schooner in the list is 29.900 tons at a trip. Giving each boat 20 trips for the season, the carrying capacity of the vessels lost this year would reach 508,000 tons in a season. y Tn 1906 44 vessels, with a carrying capacity of 60.750 tons a trip, valued at $1529.500, passed ool of existence, More tonnage was lost in 1905 than any other season in the history of the trade. In that year 48 ships valued at $2,341,500, with a car- rying capacity of 107,088 tons a trip were lost. No Airgram. -- "Got a wireless tse today." "That so' asked interested friend. "What was is?"
