PR rue . EEE He Mucet 'Have Exceptional Coolness and Courage and the Risk of Mis Task Is Tremendous -- If Caught His Employer , Disowns Him-- "Pickle" 1s One of the Most Mys- terious Spies In British History. However interesting to the student may be the records of history as it appears-from the outside, however full of the fascination which clings to the names and doings of great men, there is another side to all history--or al- most all--which has a peculiar charm of its bwn. «It must be, very largely, guess work, containing, as it does, endless mysteries and puzzles; that vast mass of the unwritten inner his. tory of nations, the machinery of plots and intrigues, which has to 'be pieced together from the scanty evi- dence which has been left to posterity. And the piecing is the more difficait because the very essence of sucdessful lots and intrigues is that they should ¢ carried on with as Little documen.. tary evidence us possible, which wight, by accident or treachery, fall into the hands of the opposite party, sufs The Manchester Weekly Times. 'he "sinister figure of the spy al- ways lurks in the background of these half-revealed political and historieal annals---~an ' important, if inglorious, cog in the complicated machinery of intrigue. His work may be at times rather dirty' work (the title "spy" is not, on the whole, a vety higaly re. spected one), but it has been on ocea- sion both necessary and patriotic; while more often than not it requires a greater amount of personal courage, and certainly of presence of mind, than the more, attractive, because more above board methods of hazard- ing one's life and liberty. The spy generally carries his life in his hand, with the additional proviso that if he whose behalf he is working will in all probability disown #1 responsibility for 'his doings. - Broadly speaking, thezefore, it is not wonderful tha in many wases the task of a spy has fall: en to the lot either of the most des. perate and. unscrupulous type of mers cenary, or of those who care above all things for a specially risky adventure for its own sake, The days of the Jacobite plots fod the restoration of the Stuart dypagty were naturally noted for the « ergy with which spies on both gides carrie on their work; and by far the mos! interesting of these darkly mysterious personagés was the man who carried on the work of betrayal under thé name of "Pickle the Spy." The iden: tity of this individual, who, as all are agreed, was 'a personage of high birth, and enjoyed a position of the greatest has Been matter for much conjecture and discussion; but it seems likely cnough that the conclusion to which Mr. Andrew Lang has come, in his in. teresting monograph on the subject, id the correct one. Mr, Lang deduces thaj "Pickle" was in reality none other than young Glengarry, and gives sev- eral reasons for his deduction, which seem perfectly eonclusive. Both "Pickle" and Glengarry, he points out, were officers in the Freneh service, both were to take part in the Elibank plot in London in 1752, and both werd intimate with the Earl Marischal in Paris.. Further, the correspondence of the spy mentions the death of his fa: ther at. the time of the death of old Glengarry, an illness when Glengarry was ill, and so forth; while, to con. clude, with the death of Alexandem MacDonnell, young Glengarry, the figure of "Pickle the Spy" seems %o "vanish from the pages of history. *Pickle'" played a very important art in the secret history of /his day. ut for him it is probabl¢ that thers would havé been another Highland ris. ing, certain to fail, yet none the less on that 'account bloody and dises: trous; so that this much good may be said to 'have come from Glengarry's hideous treachery to the exiled prince whom he professed to serve. "Pickle," at the time when this rising vas in contemplation, was in communication with Henry Pelham, the Minifter ol George 11., and forwarded to him d memorial drawn up by his ow kins, man, Lochgarry, giving the hames and numbers of the Highland cland likely to take arms in the: Btuard cause, The Elibank plof, wh wad also abandoned owing to "Piekle's" information, was to kidnap; Kirg alace; and young Glengarry was to lke » leading part in this scheme, The reason for Glengarry's ¢ was apparently neither more n than love of money, of which, kh ally, there was more to be : tréachery than for loyalty.

The Governorship of Canada was only one of the important offices held by Lord prior to his appointment in 1 to the Governor-Generalship of India, In March, 1842, he was inted by Lord Stanley, afterwards Earl Deroy. to the Governorship of Jamaica. It was at the.close of his very able administration of the al- fairs of that island that Ear] Grey, then Secretary of Btate for the Colo- nies in the administration of Lord James Russell, offered him the Gov- ernorship of Canada.

DECEMBER 2; 1911. - 'went MAGIC GROWTH. The Development of a. Western Uity Is an Alluring Study. To the eastern man, living in sn eastern city, surrounded by historic memories, and the traditions of twe hundred years, tha virgin freshness and youth of the Canadian 6 West, seems strangely incompatible, with the advanced stage of civilization and de. velopment to which she has attained. Once those mystical western. gates have opened to. receive him, all his redilections will be swept awey. 'hen wearied by his journey over the endless leagues of rail, ke steps off the train into the lofty and pre tentious station at Winnipeg, the dis- illusionment will commence--Toronto, a thousand miles to the eastward, is more eastern in atmosphere, in so far as it presents a quister and more dig- unified front to the jncoming traveler. Up the broad Winnipeg Main street, 132 feet wider than Broadway, New York, this same traveler is carried, bustled and jostled by the hurrying throngs, busying themselves Avith the all important duties of day. Across the street, a towering height of thé Union Bank Building, the voice of a newsboy crying his daily wares, sounds small and distant, mingling with that dull, settled roar of EE traffic, char. acteristic of a great city. His precon. ceived picture of romantic western existence gives place to a realization of the fact "that the west is but the east'" after all. That it is a potential and fast developing Chicago which he now sees. His initial impression contains no- thing of "the colored glory, which a Western poet flings over his pictures. Winnipeg differs from Toronto, oply as an overgrown youth of six feet differs from the man of years, Its la tent possibilities are great in propor. tion as its ambitions and its vitalit are apparent. Its very lack of tradi- tion, as the boy's lack of experience, explains its unballasted, headlong, impetuous advance. As our easterner is carried along by the bustling crowd up the broad Main street, he will come upon the proof that, mushroom-like, the ¢ity did not spring up in the night. Old Fort Gar. ry Gate, battered and weather-worn, but still palpably a gate, it stands, all that is left tf the fort, which for 80 many years stood as the emblem and sanction of authority in the great Canadian West. Here the Easterner pauses. Under the frown of its still yawning musket "loop," he may rest upon a park- Bech, provided for such wanderers by the city, and in historical retro- spection look back in imagination up- on what, if it is not a contradiction in terms, we may call "The Tradition of the Great Northwest." If he does not prosaically insist upon dating the history of Winnipeg from the date of its incorporation, Dec, 3rd. 1873, he may look back through two hundred years of turbu- lent development to find the stone which acted as perhaps the central foundation of the great metropolis, whose busy roar now fills his ears. When tracing the evolution back to 1786, it has been slow indeed, and metamorphosis-like in its aspeet; but from the view-point of the Easterner regarding all in wondering medita- tion under the crumbling walls of old Fort Garry' Gate, it has been passing strange. In it he sees the western representation of the birth of a great ople in history. What the "future olds for Canada, and for the Cana- dian West in particular, he hesitates to foretell; but as he retraces bis pondering steps back to his hotel, the glamor.and the romarpe of ime pending progress have in a minute reasserted themselves, and in his brain there shines "the vision splen+ did" to dazzle all his dreams. t- real Standard, The New Judge, Hugh Thomas Kelly, K.C., who fol- lows the tate Justice: MeMahon on the Ontario Supreme Bench, was born in Adjala Township, County of Sim. coe, in 1958, the son of John Kelly, & farmer.

During the past two years he has been president of the Bar Association, and he was chairman of the Public Library Board in 1806, and again in 1900.
