Many stories are told about Sir Charles Tupper, who died on Satur- day in England, but he did not ell many about himself. One of the few stories of a personal nature he related in his book, "Recollections of | Sirty Years in Canada," is the fol lowing: "1 had an amusing experience dur ing the first by-election affer the Liberal victory of 1873, tha: of! North Renfrew, where the Libera's announced three meetings. Our friends in that riding telegraphed me to meet Mr. MacKenzie, the Premier, who had been induced to speik «pr behalf of the Government cardidat At the ticket office whom shouid 1 enconnter by Mr. MacKenzie? He seemed very angry and refus:d tv recognize me. We both boarded the safe train--on a Mne whicu at .hat time did not extend as far <%= «ur destination. When we got to tha end of the run we found that the hotel keeper had reserved us a small tabie for dinner. Seeing the situatien, Mr. | MacKenzie, who was not with ut hu mor, burst out laughing, aul I con fess 1 'did' the likewise. "Well, Tupper," he said. as we | seated ourselves opposite each o¢th- er, "I guess we had better make the best of it. My friends have senc me a sleigh to cover the rest of tu> trip, so you had better share it with me." "Thapks," 1 replied in de ring. | "but. my friends have dope tne same." Friendly With MacKeuzie. | Then and there we agreed upon the meeting. Mackenzie was to] speak first, I was to reply, and the| Premier was to be allowed frien minutes to close the meetiay 1 drove there in my own sleiga. Mr. MacKenzie spoke very nleasan'ly and I could only reply in kind. Then { he used his fifteen minutes to make an effectual attack. I respec'.d our previous arrangement and had to | take my megicine. Mr. MacKenzie! { proposed the same arrangement for | the "hext meeting and I agreed." i Sir Charles liked to make predic-| | tions, and they were always positive. | Not long ago he said: "Many years| {ago I ventured the opinion that a | child was born tHat would live to, | see the population of Canada exceed | the population of the Mother Coun-| try, Hon. Mr. White, the Minister of Finance, enjoying better opportun'-| ties of judging, went one better by "ea { | } | | declaring that this will actually i accomplished within the next twen'v- | five years. I have little doubt of the I | accuracy of his prophecy. More than once Sir Charles stat- | ed his belief that the day would | come when Canada would dominate North America. "You will find," he; said, "that the men of the north are the people that govern the world, and they will not form an exception in _ | Canada". So long was Sir Charles Tupper | known only as a Canadian states | man that little is remembered of hi | early life as a physician in Nova | Scotia, and it is a little known fact | he started work as a shoemaker." HOME FROM THE FRONT Il | sERGT. SINGLETON SUFFERED FROM SHRAPNEL WOUNDS. 3 Be | Served Under Capt. George Richard- t sand, And Gives Latter Great Praise For His Work--He May Return to Front Later On. Sergt. Harry Singleton is home from the front. He is now residing | {in Portsmouth, but at the time he en- | listed he was living on Chatham | street. He enlisted with the 14th | Regiment, and served with Capt. | George Richardson. He is suffering {from shrapnel wounds in his right | wrist, left elbow, and shoulder, and {also a fractured jaw. He is doing | nicely now, and has been given an { honorable discharge, but states that {if he is in good health at the expira- { tion of his three months' leave of ab- | sence in January, he may go back to the front. | Sergt. Singleton had warm words | of praise for Capt. Richardson, stat- | ing that he was forever helping and | encouraging the men in their work. | He says that after Capt. Richardson | dressed, he was back into the thick | of the fight again. Sergi Singleton | also suffered somewhat from the gas. | He says that while many suffered | from the gas, there were many who | were not affected by it. "It is certainly exciting at the front," said Sergt. Singleton. when asked by the Whig for his impres- sions. "For a man to say that he is not very nervous at first would not be correct. It catches you when you see men all around you falling. However, I liked the game, and | may go back again. 1 certainly would prefer going back to be serv- ing on the home guard. To be on the home guard would be too slow; after being at the front." ™ Sergt. Singleton is wearing a spe- cial button issued by the War Office to all who have seen service at the front. : The Kingstonian is married, his wife having accompanied him home from England. At the time he en- listed she was ill in the Hotel Dieu, but on complete recovery from her illness, went over to England to be near her husband. : | Cataraqui | severely bruised.
