Anyone who reads on the outer walls at any of the schools, the "things written thereon by some of the pupils can have no doubt about the need of moral - instruction. Goodness only knows where some of i$hese thoughts originate. As the Weekly Sun sees it, one has only to travel acréss the great North- West to have his ideas of tariff com- pletely changed.

Montreal, April 21.--While her hus- band was deliberately building a trap and arranging a noose to hang him. self, Mrs. Foseph Bourdon, in wild alarm, went to the Recorder's Court office Tuesday, and asked officials to intervene, to arrest him, or do any thing to save his life. She did not have $3 for a warrant, so the officials after dué deliberation sent the man a letter asking him to explain his conduct. That was the best thing they could think of. At 5 am., yesterday, Joseph Bour don wa' found hanging to the noose and quite dead. Many hours after Joseph Bourdon had tightened the noose about his neck, a bailiff leisure: ly approached the house, at 1119 Pa- pineau avenue with the official docu- ment, asking Joseph Bourdon to ex slain his conduct. His tearful widow ad to explain that Joseph Bourdon was dead, long dend. Another unexplainable fact was the failure to cut down the man's body or try to restore animation. Neither the neighbors nor the police attempted to cut_dowm-the body until the morgue officials arrived and found a group of helpless people surrounding the dang. ling corpse.

The secular FOR SPRING, progress, the civic spirit which is so much wanted in Kings- ton. That spirit is not an invisable and uncertain quantity as some people imagine. It is real, and powerful and persuasive. There was some evidence of it in the local press when, last year, there was the demand better streets, resulting in the change of tactics on the part of the council and the decision eventually to pave certain blocks. The same spitit has exerted an infivence again and again, in pro jecting public movements. Usually it has emanated in the board of trade and among the business men. Some- times it has failed when schemes for the betterment of the city have beep lf dropped too soon. Ottawa is not booming simply be- cause the seat of parliament is there. That means something in the way of public business and the accommoda- tion which it requires. The city is growing, becguse there is an sbtive, energetic, dominant spirit at work, and it is showing itself in various di- rections. Here are some of the things under consideration, as set forth in thy Free Press: "New sewer system, new pavements, street railway extension, Bank street high level bridge over the canal, waterworks -extemsions, drive- way extensions, post office plaza con- struction, new departmental block, simate wing extension, printing bureau, Sandy Hill cemeteries trans- Fresh Lettuce, Radish, Celery and for Onions. RELIC OF Sp Ann Arbor Has Enginé Taken From One of Cervera's Ships. Detroit Free Press An imteresting ° piece of machinery in the engineering department of the university is a relic of the Spanish- American war. It is a triple expan- jon steam cutfer engine which was Brae from the wreck of the Al meranta Oquendo, one of the fleet of General Cervera and one of the ships sunk by theeUhited States fleet at the battle off Santiago in 1598. It is fit- ted with a ink motion valve gear and was something that had long been de sired in the university equipment The machinery came in possession of Frank Kirby, of Detroit, and he in turn presgnted it to the university. The engifie is apparently of Scotch or English design and the working of it is a marvel of marine engineering beauty. The boat from which the on- gine was taken was one of the steam cutters of the fleet plying between the shore and the boats and was about thirty feel long. The engine is battle seatred but its working qualities are nol injured. What We Sold. ¥ Weekly Sun Figures given by Hon.

New York Sun A traveller writing in 'an Italian magazine, says that the Swiss canton of Ticino is inhabited by the most honest folk it is possible to imagine. In most of the Ticinese villages, the writer says, the oldest: inhabitants do no remember any case of thieving, however petty, within a lifetime. Lost object when found must never be taken away; they must be left whege they were dropped or placed in a conspicuous position so that the rightful owner can find his property more easily. The case is cited of an American woman tourist who lost her purse bn an excursion in the Val Ca: priasca. The purse contained gold coin and a jewelled watch.

This is interesting in more, perhaps, than a provinetal way, There is no reason why the legislature should be dissolved before at least a fourth session is held and action is taken on the knowledge as to the distribution of population to equalize the representation in the legislative as sembly. The idea that an appeal to the people Squid be made this fall got its start {in a belief that Sir Lomer Gouin would consett to test political feeling 'in the interest of the Laurier government at Ottawa.

The Seymour offer of $25 per horse-power, for twenty-four hours each day, is about as good as anything any muwicipality can offer, and with land galore, and good rail way connections, there should be room for industrial enterprises of the most promising character.
