It is quite a common thing to-day to find men when they have done very well by themselves turning to public ser- vies and philanthropic pursuits as a sort of hobby, but they never bring. to it the enthusiasm and the energy that is the mark of the yourger man. He is young, he is strong and the world lies before him. Bo we find him essaying big feats and putting them through against odds that would terrify the amateur public servitor.® He does large things in a large way, his name is blazoned forth in the papers, and presently after a hard day's work well done he steps out for a recess while he puts his own affairs in order. And the public which rea. lizes in a dim unrepentant sort of way that its public men are rarely paid as much as they ean make working for themselves, takes ® its hat for a moment and then prodeeds to forget. pr There are two saving graces, how- : ever, to the whole affair. One is the fact that the man himself does not mueh care. The cther is that such a man is bound to keep Subping up by at put him where he was. A case in point is that of James Walter Curry, K.C., of Toronto, for- merly crown attorney of that. city.

Combines, too, were on his list of enemies and in several severe battles he administered defeats that still tend to keep certain lines of business men from combining to re- strain trade, J. W. Curry was har in Pott Hope in 1858, He was educated in the pub- lie and high schools of that town, and in 1874 he entered Queen's University from which institution he graduated in 1878. Three years at Osgoode Hall, and in 1831 he was called to the Bar. His first pleading was done in Port Hope and there, and in Millbrook, he spent the next eight years. They were years profitably spent for in 1889 when he went to Taropto he was at onoce made acting crowyn attorney, and filled that post with such success and such profit to the city that in 1893 when the office became vacant he was 'named to fill it. Those were great days in the To- ronto criminal courts. It was the era of the giants when Bigelow and Mur- doch and Nicholas Murphy and J. G. Holmes flourished in their might and the court rooms in which they fought out their cases were gladiatorial arenas where legal strategy replaced met and trident and thundered rhe- iforic did instead of clash of steel.

"tation of a handsome - watch and ' chain, a set of silverware, and a gold stick pin on behalf of the officials of the court and police department. All of which goes to" showy that now and again people say nice things about a man without waiting until he dies. Mr. Curry has the common weak- ness of lawyers, a leaning toward the game of politics. He started in 1873 in a bye-electiongtn_ East Durham, and, omitting the térm ¢f his crown atiorneyship, when he had to sit ou the fence and eat his hegrt out watch- ing other fellows fight, he has never missed a campaign. In 1908 he went up against Alex. McCowan as Liberal candidate for the Legislature, but the Whitney wave was to great for him, and he finished next. Aud this, by the way, is the only chance. He could never be lured back into prosecuting in behalf of the crown, He has had his share of that and has come well by his laurels. But maybe--just maybe--after he has as- sured himself against visits {rom the wolf, a fighting chance for a law- maker's berth will lure him back in- to the public service. Law-maker's seats are deadly bait for men of law. "COUNTESS OF DUFFERIN." Manitoba's First Locomotive to Adorn Park. The locomotive, "Countess of Duf- ferin" famed as being the first loce- motive ever seen in Manitoba arrived in the Winnipeg early in May from Golden, B.C, It was expected that the engine would be brought from (Golden on its own wheelbase but this was found to, be impracticableg., lt was therefore raised on to a flat car which was duly billed to Manager George J. Bury, at Winni- peg. The: car arrived in the local freight. sheds in due time and it was unloaded in the yards and removed to the Winnipeg shops. Here it will undergo a thorough overhauling and will be put in as good condition as its age permits. It will be re-painted and mide attractive in appearance amd then in all probability will this sum- mer find a last resting-place in the park facing the Canadian Pacific de- pot on Higgins avenue, Winnipeg. / It will eall up many an old reminiscence | to the pioneers who were opening up the West when this old-timer appear- ed on the scene fo make transporta- tion easier. Its coming marked a new ¢éra, the passing of the old ox-cari and the advent of railroads. Supt. John McLellan, in speaking of the Countess of Dufferin said that he saw the old locomotive first in 1878. It had been brought to Winnipeg two | years before, in 1876. It was brought down Red River on a barge as at that time there was no rail lead- ing into the city. The locomotive was intended for use in construction work on the line running from St. Boniface to Selkirk, Mr. added that the locomotive was built in 1871 and although it is much smaller than the huge locomotives of today it was of a fair size and did excellent service, For a number of years the locomo- tive was used at the lumber plant of Mackenzie and Mann at Golden, B.C, but latterly it has been comparatively little used and last year it was not used at all » Ontario Gets Most. Western Canada naturally attracts most immigrants. Free land is the lodestone, as is evidenced by the fact | that in the fiscal year 1910 58 per cent. of our total immigration settled there. The propaganda carried on by the Government is not, however, con- fined to settling the West. The exo- dus of farmers and farmers' sons from | Eastern Canada to the West--last fis- cal year, 11,600 homesteads being granted to Canadians alone -- leaves tremendous gaps in the East, and the success of the effort to fill these gaps is clearly shown by the fact that 58 ver cent. of the British arrivals--the Pen agricultural class of immigrants --~remain in Eastern Canada. Of the Western Provinces Alberta seems to be the favorite, gaining 42,500 sel- tlers; British Qolumbia, 30,532; and Saskatchewan third, 29,218, which was more than Quebec secured.

Optimists estimate that the popula- tion of Canada will reach eight mil- lions when the census is taken next year. The Census Bureau estimated our population at 7,184,744 on March 31, 1909, and of this number, 1,430,000 are in the West.

The effect of the upbuilding of the West is shown nowhere more strikingly than in the representation ouse of Commons.

Other Negroes Aspired But Failed to ileach the Goal---Langford and Johnson May Yet Meet. 2 Johnson, who defeated Jeffries in the ring at Reno, Monday, is the first negro who ever held the title' of cham- pion heavyweight of the world under Marquis of Queensberry rules. This means that he is the first negro that ever pounded his way to vietory for the title since the days of glove fight- Jing began. : | With his achievement it 1s not sur- prising that he should be considered one of the greatest men in the history tof the sport of pugilism. When he won from Burns in- Australia and became champion his importance in the world, iand principally in the ranks of pugil- ism, became even greater than would have been the success of any white fighter. This was due to his color and the fact that no other colored man ever held the title, |" H Johnson had been a white man when he fought Burns" there would have been no "fight of the century," ns the battle of July 4th is termed. {This is simply because there are not enough men of calibre in the heavy- weight ranks to make it interesting for him. Going a little further back into his- itory, there was another colored heavy: weight, considered by many who knew him to have been far superior to Johnson. That was Peter Jackson, the Porto Rican, who landed in this country from Australia when John L | Sullivan was champion, Sullivan fused to fight him But Carbett did tackle Jackson and found t how wonderful this ne- gro was Before the battle had ended. | The contest 'went sixty-one rounds a draw. But Jackson never got crack at the title and he sped died. Undoubtedly he was 'pugilist and capable of carrying the honors, in fact, perhaps better than ithe Johnson of "to-day, but he didn't have the chance to get it as easily as Johnson did, > Going back to the days of the bare knuckle fighters brings to light &n- other negro, adn American who went to England and fought many battles. This. was Molineaux, and some of his | greatest fights Britain in 1810. That's a long time ago and has no great bearing on the present situation, but it does show that since the start of pugilism the black rave has been identified with it, and sometimes most prominently, for Molineaux was a champion in his day. But looking through the dope of pugilism in the heavyweight ranks, it 1é shown all too plainly that negroes capable of holding the title have been few and far between. Some of them have fought their way to positions near the top, but ¢ould not guite reach the goal. X for. } a and : All Kinds of Sport. Johnson is to get 52,000 a: week for appearing in vandeyille.

Hecovered by "Thieves After Serving Out Their Jail Terms. It is well known to the police that there are a number of ex-conviets why are literally rolling in riches and driving about London and the pro- vineces to-day in their own motor-cars | and carriages, said a detective. to the writer the other day. The majority of these men are old embezzlers, and thére seems to be little doubt that they are able to live well dnd keep going lavishly furnished residences because the money they stole was hidden by them before being arrested and sent to prison. There are thousands of pounds' worth of valuable property looted by thieves from various sources that lies buried in odd corners of Britain and will probably only be recovered by the men themselves on their release. Jases are constantly occurring where an embezzler after running off with a large sum in gold refuses to divulge the hiding place of his ill-gotten gains. He is sent to [¥isGh, and the oot remains unrecovered. In nine cases out of ten the embezzler, finding arrest imminent, buries his stolen roperty and digs it up again when e comes out of prison. A man who was for many years an inmate of one of our prisons is now living in affluencé in a town up north. He was imprisoned for em ing $350,000 from his employers, and h declared at the {rial Spent every penny of it. For some time after his release from jail he liv- ed in a cheap lodging house at Hox- ton, and then one day he declared that he had come into a fortune, a brother in Australia having died and | left him some thousands. As a mat- ter of fact, although the police had no proof, he bad recovered the money which he had embessled years before, A man of considerable means now living in the United States served a term of imprisonment for forgery, having obtained $75,000 by means of Not a penny of the money was recovered by the police. During the forced confinement of the thief his wife, in pursuance of a pre- viously agreed plan, went out to ser- Jice in a gentleman's family. As soon as the husband was liberated, however, his wife resi her posi- tion, and the pair sailed immediately" for the colonies. It ultimately came to light that the money which had been stolen by means of the forged checks had been buried under the flooring in a Boho house. Some fifteen years ago a Hindu merchant who had coms to London to make purchases of gems was rob- bed of many thousands of unds. The thieves carried their ill-gotten wealth to a ¢h tenement in White- ¢hapel ; but, finding the police hot on their track, they carried the loot one dark night to a remote spot on<ghe Essex marshes and secretly buried it. They then disappeared and have not been seen since. It is believed that the money remains to this day where it was buried--London Tit-Bits. Thousands Would Do the Same. A prefty sto concerning Mr. W. H. Lever, of Bunlight soap fame, is going the rounds. At an outing of the children of Port Sunlight two lit- tle girls invited Mr. Lever to go with them on the switehback railway. Like a jovial schoolboy he consented. As they were going along one little girl said, "I've n in one of these before at New Brighton. I've got a rich aunt there." "Oh, indeed!" said Mr. Lever, "Yes," went on the little one, . "she has got £200 saved up." "But you've got more than that, haven't you, Mr. Lever?' inquired the other child. "Well, you know," replied Mr. lever, seriously, "I keep - épending my money, and you can't have money if you spend it, can you?" "And are' vou very poor now?' asked the first tiny girl, anxiously. "Well," said Mr. Lever, 'I keep spending, and what- ever shall I do when all my money is gone?." Almost simultaneously his small companions shouted, "Come and live with us!"
