Oltawa is assuming the appearance of a metrbpolitan city. It is Can- ada's capital and as such every Cana- dian should feel proud at its progress and advancement, and should be will- ing to aid in every way Josie to make it a place to be. admired and to be maintained to the highest ex- tent. IL is a city of magnificent pro- portions, of griat manufacturing ce pacities; a sirong business centre, pos- sessing citizens eminently progressive. In the social whirl it Aw oremost among the capitals of the continent. The Canadian Press' Associgtion met there on Thursday and Friday last and the entertainment was, possibly, the best ever given to a body of re ppresentative Canadians, The conven- tion itsell was the best in the history of the association, the attendance be- ing the largest that has yet gathered. There were over 350 men and women present. The unlimited entertainment provided by the city of Ottawa Some- what militated against the convention duties; nevertheless, the essential busi- ness of the gathering was well done. The banquet on Thursday night, at the Chateau Laurier; was a fine ai fair and ran smoothly under the di rection of chat able journalist, Hon. George I. Graham. speeches were oifective and entertaini Hon. R. L. Borden was heard for the first time by many journalists, and his subject matter was enlightening and effective. Hon, W. T. White spoke well, pointing out the advantages of Canada in the commercial world. The speech of John R. Bone, the president-glect o f the Press Association, was concise, admir- ably worded and effectively presented. For a quiet soul Mr. Hone excelled himself and was complimented oft all sides for the admirable address. Don. C. Seitz, of the New York World, aluo spoke abd created rounds of applause and laughter by his apt phrases and pointed remarks. Mr. Seitz is thor- oughly democratic in style and proved himself a genial and boom companion |of the pressmen. Ile was afiaqle, em- inently practical and decidedly enter- | taining. All his speeches during the convention ' wers full of suggestions. | The only trouble was the convention did not pump him dry, as several ad- dresses expected had to be postponed owing to shortness of time. The visit of the pressmen to the FE. B. Eddy mills, at the Chaudiere, was full of interest. The work of manu iacturing papér' was of great interest {to the visitors who were shown all the processes through which this fa- mous product of the Eddy mills pass- es in its manufacture. Many of the members. had yuestions of interest to publishers to ask as they watched the | large logs greduatly being changed fir ito the paper on which their publica: tions come forth. Every particular in the phtocess of manufacture of paper was fally explained by obliging mem- bers of the firm who gui the visi- tors through the maze of machinery in the mills, A visit was also paid to the match factory, where everything in connec. tion with this highly interesting work whs explained, A pleasing feature of the visit and 'one greatly appreciated, was the ation of a ber of boxes of matches of different sorts to the visitors, To the surprise of the newspaper men one of the boxes was labelled "Canadian I'reds Association. Sou- venir of visit to the E. B. Eddy Co, Limited, at Hull, Canada," Thore was also a box 'of water and' wind-proof matches as well as a metal match box well filled. The visitors were given these matches in the boxing Jdepart- ment as being the most fitting after the whole process had been watched from the beginning. On Friday the Automobile League of Ottawa gave the visitors a run around the city and out to the Ex- perimental Farm where the Hon. Mar- tin Burrell entertained "the 400" at luncheon in a fine new buildfig, rear- ed for sudh dal functions. and oped. by. the ess Association.

Cherbourg, June s1.--As a fur- only confirmed demairie. which was sunk off the Cherborug peninsula on Satur- day, the Minister of Marina, M. De- classe went out to the scene of the disaster aboard the armored rruiser Glorie to pay homage to the dead. The warship steamed up slowly to the spot where the submarine disap- peared, the engines were stopped, and the Minister of Marine, standing on the bridge, The marine guard presented arms, the Marseillaize moored to n the decks. The exact cause of the disaster The second Saint Louis, who was on the bridge at the time of the =ollision, declares that skot up the Vendemairie's periscope 80 close to the battleship that there were no time either to reverse the engines or put over the helm. He distinctly saw the ram cut the submarine in two, and did not doubt that all on board perish- ed instantly.

SANG "LE BRGADIER"" COLONEL THE HON. SAM HUGHYS CAME TO RESCUE 'And Aided an Unfortunate Singer at a Banquet--The Sorg Was Fro. cuently Rendered in the House. When the Minister of Militia was mn { Sherbrooke a short time ago he was a thé officers of the district. During the evening one officer set out to sing the stirring old French song, "Le Briga. dier,'"" when, to the officer's confusion and the company's disappointment, the would-be singer found that he had forgotten the words. Next to the dil- ficuity of singing a song without knowing the tune, is that arising from ignorance of the words. Confronted by the latter, the officer had to ask to be excused. Like a general relieving a besieged town, the Minister. of Militia came to the rescue. Taking his seat at the piano, he played his own accompani- ment and sang the song through from 'first to last. If a man with the fine military spirit of the Minister of Militia and his many years of experience in the House of Commons, did not know both the words and the music of Brigadier, it would be to his everlast ing disgrace, for year after year Briga. dier is one of the songs with which the House fills in the gap while the members are being called in for a division. Many a vote that has made political history has been called as the echoes of the rolling chorus of Brigadier. were still reverberati through the galleries and corridors o the House. Every member with music in his sou), and with a voice fit for anythins better than talking, learns to sing the song, but in all the years of its use it was never better sung than when Mr. Bechard, of Iberville, and Mr. Choquette, of Montmagny, were there to lead the Parliamentary choir. Tho voice of neither will again be heard in that chamber. Mr, Bechafd Has joined "the great majority" and Mr. Choquette has joined the Senate. How- ever, when occasion arises the House still sings "Le Brigadier," and it tries Ee ain it as did the "Boys of the Old gade," Would Like to See Canada. It is generally admitted that & man considers a fashionable wedding the heigh: of boredom. That may be the reas.n why His Grace, the Duke of Butherland, departed from England 80 soon after the marriage of his elder son and Lady Eileen Butler, and came to Canada to see his West. ern estates, The distinguished visitor refuses absolutely to discuss our late spring, and the prospects of the West- ern crops with representatives of the press and turns a chilly shoulder to tha bright young men from the morn. ing papers who seek in vain. to kno | his opinions on woman suffrége an ths future of Home Rule. The Duke of Sutherland possesses in Stafford House one of thse most imposing residences in London, and its pro- jected closing is causing some anxiety among the literary and dramatic lights of London. The Duchess of { Sutherland, who - is still remarkably youthful in her type of loveliness, is, like " Kipling's "William the. Con. ueror," fond of people whe "do" ings, and her receptions are usaally | more than merely social occasions. | During the duke's absence in Can- | ada, the duchess is to take a "cure" |at one of the Continental invalid resorts, as her health has begun to | suffer from the many exactions of | London life, - Her debutante niece, { Lady Enid Fane, is one of tlie most | beautiful girls of the season, and bears a strong resemblance to her charming aunt. The future of the duchess's only daughter, Lady Rose. mary Leveson-Gower, is being dis. cussed by many match-making mam- {mas. Tt is said that this independent | young person with a Shakespearean | Dame is more anxious to come out to i Canada and see her father's Western ranch than to "seitle down" on mag- nificent ancestral acres in Great Britain, Red Cedar Nearly Gone. There was a time within the present generation when red cedar was to be found in every part of Canada. There was so much red cedar, in fact, that everybody thought, without making any special calculation, emough was in sight to last a few thousand years. This being the situation, everybody who had nothing else to do took a hand at wasting it. Lavish use was made of it in hundreds of ways, and some actually were sufficient. ly ruthless to turn it into firewood. More would have done this, me doubt, but it wasn't as a good heater. It made a fine blaze, but it was not a satisfying winter fuel, Of course, the people were riding to a fall in the timber, and many now wish their forefathers had not made such reck- less use of red cedar, It has been ting scarcer and scarcer in the last n_ years, and now we have reached such straits that it is being purchased either in the tree or in the fence ! guest at an informal banquet given by. a 7 PAGE THREES. i PROF. WATSON, OF QUEEN'S, Who Was Honored by Toronto Uni. versity. Teronto News, The Honorary degree conferred hy the University of Toronto on Dr. John Watson, of Queen's University, marks the completion of forty years' service a8 a university professor. Wat- son came to Queen's . University in 1872. \He was then a distinguished graduate of Glasgow University. His alma mater conferred on him the hon- orary degree of LL.D, in 1850, Dr. Watson has long since won recognition in Great Britain, the . continent "of Europe and the United States as a man of eminence in philosophy. He is at present delivering in Glasgow tni- versity his second course of Gifford lectures. His eminence in philosophy has long been qo distinction to Can- ada. It would be hard to tell what Dr. Watson 'has been 10 Queen's 'Univer- sity. One of his old students said of him not long ago that it was Dr. Watson's intellectual point of view which in the end affeetid most deeply the students of Queen's. Dr. Watson's standard of thought is a world stan dard. To have such a standard has heen of inestimable benefit to the uni- versity and the country. When a por- trait of Pr. Watson was unveiled at Queen's in 1900 he made a memorable reply to the graduate in philosophy who had presented the portrait to the university, "A university," he said, "has ad its main aim to supplement the weakness of the individual by the strength of the race." To make men strong has been Dr. Watson's ideal. The way to do.this as he bas ex- lained is to make men regard life Pal the standpoint of the universal and to think for themselves. To achieve the intellectual service which he has accomplished meant that for many years Dr. Watson gave him- self solely to thought and work. No one who lives an arduous intellectual life can at the same time spend himself in society. Dr. Watson has written a number of notable books in philoso- phy. He has by this time expressed this philosophy. These rigorous years of intellectual labor which must have been to a large extent solitary, are being followed by a time of life when the student can mingle with his fellow | men in companionship and helpful in- i tercourse. Perhaps there is no part jof a great man's career which is so helpful to his fellows as his old age when he has solved his problems, con- quered his difficulties and become the kind, beneficent and wise man who has tried life and knowe that it is good. When a university honors these qual- ities it honors what is best. Dr. Wat- son in his long career has received of- fers of high positions from many uni- versities outside of Canada. It has been the good fortune of Queen's Uni- versity that he has chosen to give his life '0 her service. WILL DIG FIRST POTATOFS On June 20th. and Wants Whig Editor's Presence.

"My idea is, if possible, to have the whole division out, the artillery, and all the branches of the service, at Pe tawawh, or elsewhere, and bring the canvas also. Then we would be in a position to work out tactical schemes to good advantage." The above is the reply which Col the Hon. Sam Hughes gave toa Whig representative, on Monday afternoon, when asked regarding the city corps that had left camp the day before. The minister of militia said that from reports which he had received, he was, on the whole, well pleased with the City units that turned out at Barrie field for four days. He mentioned sev- eral interesting facts in connection with the 43rd, 57th, 41st and 14th, that the success of this mew fen- ture for the citizen soldiers depended the officers. Col.
