This is an official visit of the Lord Mayor to the law courts, In bygone days the King himseit awaited at Westminster the coming © the lord miavor in a chariot of state, with a sword-bear€r, maceholder, chaplain and gorgeousl hiveried coachmen and footinen. The forms have been changed, and the visit is naw paid to the high court, but the spirit of the act remains, for the lord mhyor opens his term in the Mansion House with a ceremonial involving recognition of the supreme authority of the crown. : The instrument used for expressing this traditional idea is an old-fashion. od cocked hat. Then the lord mayor, in his robes of office, enters the high court with his retinue in costume he solemnly lifts his cocked hat three times from his head and salutes the Lord Chief Justice and the justices. The judges wear robes and wigs when in court, For Lord Mayor's Day they have also a flat black cap which can be slipped over the top of the wig. The lord Chief Justice and his associates return the lord mayor's salute gravely, but they do not take off their black caps. Were they to do this they would place the crown upon a level of equality with the mrnicipal- ity. They greet tie lord mayor with: out uncovering their heads and the principle of the supremacy of the crown is safe The lord mayor with his retinue sub. sequently visits the judges in other courts, to invite them to the Guildhall banquet. When the rustiing noise of the procession is heard each judge fumbles in a drawer, pulls out a little square of black cloth, and crowns his wig with it. The lord mayor takes off his three-cornered hat three times and the justice on the bench bows but remains cosered, In all this byplay of cocked hat and black cap is preserved the ancient tra- dition of the supremacy of the British crown, Chopping Sticks In Court. Quaint ceremonies are perpetuated in London and one of the most cur- ious is that of chopping sticks in court, as the annual rendering of quit. rent services by the corporation to the crown, This took place at the Law Courts in the presence of a large gathering the other day, before the King's Re- membrancer, Sir John Macdonell, Sir John was assisted by Mr. H. A Hance, chief clerk of the King's Re membrancer's Department, who made occupiers of a plece of waste called "The Moors," in tha county of Salop, to "come forth and do your service."

A trip along the Albany river, »h was until lately the northern bound- ary of Ontario, and bevond which lies 8 wilderness of rocks and trees untrod. den by white men, the undisturbed haunt of the 'fur-hunting Indians, is an undertaking that would appeal only race of prospectors and traders that made the far north their home. The venerable head of the diocese of Temiskaming, however, Monseigneur Latulippe, a man over sixty years of age, has re. cently returned to Hailevbury after a three months' trip of which the ex- pedition along the Albany formed only a small part, and that the least ardu- ous, Bishop Latulippe has ecclesiastical jurisdiction over a diocese, the north ern limit of which is the North Pole, and the eastern and western bound- aries, seven hundred miles apart. His diocese stretches as far south as Tem- agami, and while it includes fruitful stretches of fertile farming land, it contains for the most part an untrod. den wilderness of forest, lake, and streams. The churches over which he rules range from the stately new cathedral at Haileybury and the large edifice at Cobalt, to the small mission church at Fort Albany, ou the shores of James Bay. To visit the Indian posts in his scat. tered territory was the object of his trip, and its success may be augured from the fact that he confirmed three hundred Cree and Ojibway Indians during his journey and called at each of the small scattered points where mission churches have been eestab- lished and where missionary priests make occasional calls to minister to the spiritual needs of their flock. The trip included an arduous jour- ney of six hundred miles in a canoe. This cance was obtained on Lake Ke- nogami and three Indian guides were hired for the journey. The bishop and his traveling companion, Father Braseau, traveled by cance from the head of Lake Kenogami to Fort Hope, a distance of 200 miles, which proved the hardest portion of the journey, no less than 34 portages having to be crossed on foot through virgin forest. From Fort Hope, which is on Lake Eabamet, the most northerly lake sur- veyed in Ontario, a8 return was made to the Albany, and the eastward jour- ney along that stream commenced. They journeyed for three hundred miles 'along the Albany, reaching Bay at Fort Albany, where there is a mission church with two § resident priests, and a convent of five Grey Nuns, who have an industrial school where they teach the Indian children useful aris and give them the rudiments of an education. These pioneers of civilization and Christian ity dwell in a solitude peopled only by the redskins, with a very occagion- al visit from a trading ship that calls ta take the furs of the Indians, ich PAGE FLEYEXN Do not be misled-- ASK FOR PERRIN'S GLOVES and LOOK for the Trade-Mark.
