The Halifax dockyrd, onee famous in the annals of Britain's conquests, has again resumed importance as a nava. base, says W. H. Dennis in The Globe. With the arrival of the crais- er Niobe, the first vessel in the east to fom thé nucleus of the Canadian Navy, and the fitting up of the Naval Hospital as a college for the training of cadits, this cace-noted naval yard has taken on a little of its old-time activity. When the American colonies that now form the United States re. voited from the mother country the Halifax dockyard became the only naval base on this side of the Atlan- tic. But before the days of the revolu- tion Halifax had been the rendezvous of the famous expedition that gather. ed for the conquest of Louisburg and Quebec. Here Boscowen ~ amt Sir Charles Hardy refreshed their fleet and wait ed the coming of Gen. Amherdt, pre- Jataton to their famous attack on the Dunkirk of America, and a year after. wards Admiral Saunders and Gen. Wolfe sailed out of the harbor to the conquest of Quebec. The most cele brated uames connected with the naval warfare anpear in the records of this yard. Ou two tablets unt! recently in the Admiralty House, Halifax, are inscribed the names of many of the most distinguished Ad- mirals of the eighteenth and pine. teenth centuries In the old troubled days when war vexed Europe and America, there were stirring times in Halifax. The harbor thronged with ships of war, or valuable prizes captured from the enemy. A great number of people found employment in the dockyard as shipwrights, caulkers, smiths and rig- gers. British men-of-war and captur- ed French frigates had to be repair- 'ed, after hot battles on the high seas, land in war times a large staff of mechanics was constantly engaged in | this work. | 'In the dockyard records we find | many orders similar to the following "Halifax Yard, Sept. 4, 1805. |' "Memo! !

Jackson, master.at- arms, report to Bir William Parker concerning the erection of buildings in the dockyard. They report that they could not be erected on aceoant uf scarcity of men, caused by employ- ment on the hospital. In old days the piers and jetlies "of the dockyard ®choed to the son s-<-thelr constitu of the jolly jack:tars that have made the story of Great Britain's prowrss upon the seas a worldstirring drs- ma.

Sir { Thomas Hardy, one of Nelson's lam- ous captains, ( in October, r his ship, the Tri umph. with some of the North Amer. { jean fleet, had been engaged watching i a number of the French men-of-war shut up in Chesaveake Bay. When the gallant captain, under onders from his chiel, Admiral Sir George Cranfield ley, was ordered t Halifax 1 t and repair he little dreamed that at Halifax dockyard he | was fated to meet his future wile, in the person of the charming daagh. ter of the commander of the North American station.

BOYLE'S EARLY CARZER. | - | Former Chief Justice of British Co- His Advica-to the Woman With Spe- | | lumbia Tendered Startling Advice. { In the early days of British Colum- { bia when the mining rush was on { and the country was frll of lawless characters of all deseriptions, the laws were made entirely by Bir James Dou- glas, governor ai that time of Van- couver Island and British Columbia, which were two separate colonies. The administration of justice was left in the hands of Sir Matthew Beg. bie, chief justice, and although it has e meled out impartial justice. A case of his autocratic method of governing a court is told by one of the early settlers in the provinee. posed that he had been and robbed. The police arresting a man supposed to be re- dul heoughs to. trial before a jury. evi cumstantial, bdt it was strong, and the j had no doubt of the man's guilt. However, after the counsel for the defence the jury had debated the matter for some time, they ammounoced that the man was not guilty. ; Judge Begbie received the verdict with ominous silence. Thé situation wa. -becoming embarrassing, when asked that seeing that the accused had been found not guilty by the jury, he be discharged. to the man in the dock, "you may go. I hope that the next man you sand will be one of the jury." Sir Matthew is not the only judge who has made similar reflections, but this story is said to be true. The Annual Slaughter. Every session there is a "slaughter of the innocents." Ai the opening, three days a week are devoted to the interests of private members, who academic resolutions on the or- der paper and introduce public bills' and then forget all about them. As the weeks go by private members get a_day chopped from their allowance, and when the half way mark in the session's progress is reached, the Gov- ernment appropriates every day for its own business, and the mass of bills and "motions heaved overboard. Then there is great uproar on the part of these same careless ones who have allowed their days of opportun- iy to slip by. Many a man con- siders he has fudilled Kis duty Ww his constituency when he places a mo- tion to abolish the Senate on the or- der paper, and proceeds to draw his monthly indemnity on the alleged ground of public service.

R. T. Coady, city treasurer of To- routo, once lost a bet--or so the story goes, at any rate--over a lumberman's ability to measure brushwood. It may wi be generally known that Mer. 'oady used ws sell, and can size up a pile ood with some facility, even to his day. The art of mentally meas- uring the number of feet in a stick of timber is a mysterious one. Lum- sepen can do and accuracy rule near the pile had a friend curately measure a big pile of brush- | wood, an assertion which was met by all present with some derision. After | the bet was pt in { sunape, the lumberman dumped | brushwood in a big tank of water, held it under the surface, measured the height to which the water rose, | and from this calculation the amount {of water which the brushwood dis. without putting a But Mr | placed. Thus he gave Mr. Coady in- | disputable figures.

H McGuigan, the ex-railway man who undertook the contract for Ontario's hydro-electric power line, is a big Irishman of warm heart and quick temper. There are probably ood grounds for the rumor that Moe. | wigan called Jim Hill something | stronger than "falsifier," and that he | used a similar word to a member of the Ontarie Cabinet who tried to | meddle too much with the hydro-elec- | tric department.
