London, April 30.--David Lloyd George's budget speech, yesterday, took four and a half hours in actual delivery, and when the chancellor sat down, exhausted, the house sat silent, The budget proposals for 1909-10 had taken its breath away. The social reforms which Mr. Lloyd- George seeks to introduce in Britain are based, in the main, on German éx- perience, though the idea of setting aside £100,000 for labor exchanges, for both skilled and unskilled labor, is borrowed from France. There is to be a State insurance against loss of em ployment. The board of trade is de: veloping a scheme under which only deserving workmen out of work will betiefit. A vast scheme was outlined NAPANEE BUDGET. A Piano Recital of Very Great In- i terest. : Napanee, April 30.--The death oc- curred at South Fredericksburg, on April 28th, of Charles N.

He will visit parliament, to-morrow. The new sultan, it is stated, will shortly make a tour of the provinces with a large military es- cort. He seems to aim at a democra- tio role and to be as acécssible as an American president. 'Ht was noted that he shook hands with those who congratulated him after the accession ceremony instead of giving his robe to kissed. Abdul Hamid's probable fate, however, seems {o absorb "more attention then his sucéessor's pros pects.

MURDER OF A SETTLER. Farmer Followed Tracks of Slay- er's Horse. Milestone, Sask., April 30.--Sensa- tional evidence wu: brought out 4t the trial of Xrnest Morris, formerly of Bethany, Mo., who is 'charged with the murder of his brother. A farmer named MWinrade testified that Krnest was engaged to his daughter, and vis- ited the house on the night of the mur- ler, staying there until eleven o'clpek. Upon leaving he said he was gaing to Milestone. Hearing of the tragic death of Charles Morris on the following morning, Kinrade became suspicious, and set to work to track Mrnest by hin horse's hoofs. This was easy to weomplish, owing to the fact that the horse had lost one shoe. The tracks went due south after leaving the Kin- rade home, and then turned suddenly and led to within forty yards of the shanty on Charles' homestead, where Kinrade logt all- trace of them on the hard . ground. - Kinrade excused him- self for not having given his evidence at the inquest on the ground that he did not think Ernest guilty of the murder, and concluded his evidence by saying : "Now I have no pessible doubt that Frnest killed his 'brother and then set fire to the shanty to hide hig crime." } which destroyed Charles' shanty curred about one o'clock in the morn- ing, which would be about the time Ernest reached there by the circuitous route. oc Satwday Night, At Cornovsky's.
