Governor. The Hon. Sir Alexander Campbell. K. C. M. G., Lieutenant Governor of Ontario died the at Government House, Toronto, on Tuesday, May 24th in the 7lst year of his age. He was a man of unblemished character in private and public life, and was held in much esteem by all who knew him. The Hon. G. A. Kirkpatrick, M. P. for Frontenac, and late speaker of the House of Commons, is mentioned as Sir Alexander Camp- bell's probable successor. -___ ___-.. .__.___.. . .. . --... More Knights. Wednesday’s Globe says :â€"â€"“ The Queen's Birthday honors made public to-day will make the Premier of Canada Sir John Abbott, K. C. M. G.; and the Premier of Ontario Sir Oliver Mowat, K. C. M. G. Chief Justice Lacoste receives the honor of knighthood, and Prof. G. M. Dawson, son of' Sir William Dawson of Montreal, receives the decor- ation of C. M. G. for service in Behring Sea." 1 The honor of knighthood has been decluimed on good and sufficient grounds by so many Reformers to whom it was offered that probably some surprise will be felt that Mr. Mowat did not follow their example; but there was no reason â€"â€"cxcept, perhaps, his native modesty-â€" why he should do so, and all his col- leagues worc of the opinion that under all the circumstances it was fitting and expedient- that the honor should not be refused. The drawback to the accept- ance of knighthood bya Canadian is that it throws him into very doubtful company, and if it could be taken from two or three we could mention who have disgraced it, the title would be for more valued than it is. But it was never conferred upon one more worthy of it than the premier of Ontario, who will prove himself a knight “sunspcm' c! suns rcprochc"; though he would un- doubtedly have declined the well deserv- ed honor hnd he not been assured that he “is not indebted for it. directly or indirectly, to the Dominion Govern uncut; but that it has been the spontan cons and unexccptcd act of' the Imperial authorilics in recognition of the public confidence that has been placed in him for twenty years, and in the confesst ability of the AdlniniSh'utimr of which he has so long been the honored head." m. -G1ft Enterprises.

F vols abound in tens of‘thousands, and it is to be expected that unscrupulous persons will profit by their folly. If the gift enterprises were fairly conducted, if prizes were as valu- able as represented and there were no dishonest favoritism in awarding them, it would be bid enough; but as the um- jority of them are not worth as much as they cost the “ fortunate winners," and as the really valuable onesâ€"in some cases, , at any rateâ€"go to relatives of'the enter- l prising publishers, the whole thing is a fraud and ought to be stamped out. Amongst the prizes given by one of the ‘dlSll on a silver~plated stand, valued at $16." It was won by a little girl in this village, who, before she could get it, had to send two more subscribers at $1 each, l and then had to pay the freight on the dish. A commercial traveller who was in Mr. Heard’s one evening, and whose sister won the same prize, said that the “ valuable " article was sold by his firm at twelve dollars a dozen wholesale; and, as the publisher bought hundreds at a time, he probably got them for about 75 cents each, just the sum the traveller's sister had to pay for packing the prize. after which she had to pay cxprcssagc also. Many of the puzzles given by the various puplicatious are so exceedineg simple that they are probably solved by scores of persons ten minutes after they appear in print; and yet, strange to say, I the winners of some of the most. valuable : prizes reside in Manitoba, British 00-" lumbia or the United States. Such vast sums of money have been made by pub lishers out of these lotteries under an- other name that their example is now being followed by at least. one patent medicine man, and how he works the “fake” is thus exposed by the Whitby Chronicle : “Those who have noticed the prize puzzle of the ‘ Old Man and His Three Daughters’ in the nchpapers have in many instances discovered the three daughters in a minute or two, and pro- ceeded at once to send their 30 cents each fora box of Ford’s Pills and to compete for the prizes offered. One of the parties who had seen the adv. in the Gazette, came to us on Wednesday with a letter he had received from the Ford Pill 00., the authors of the advert-isman of the ‘Old Man and his Three Daugh- ters‘ and asked us to expose ‘the fake,’ as he termed it. The following extract from a letter he had received speaks plainly as to the inwarducss of the little game: Your answer to the Prize Puz- zle Picture received. Since announcing this contest the proprietor of Ford's Prize Pills have decided that for this month only they would give an extra daily prize of a beautifully designed five o'clock cake basket, or boo-boo dish of the best quadruple plate, and valued by us at $10, to the first person from whom we receive a correct solution of this puzzle each day. We take pleasure in notifying you that you were awarded this extra prize. The only condition attached to this extra prize is, that you are to order one dozen boxes of' Ford's Prize Pills (price 83 a dozen) and agree to present one box to each of twelve of your friends, and at the same time ex- hibit the handsome prize and explain how you secured it. Thus it will be seen that the victim must in the first place pay 30 cents, next 83. After this he has to travel around among his friends until twelve boxes of pills have been distributed, and must show the prize, valued by the Ford Pill Co. at 310. Thus the victim must pay $3.30 and then become a walking advertisement for purgutivcs for a few days, and then only gets a quadruple plate bon bon for it all. Surely the people of this world will know something soon, for there never were so many fakers plying their schemes as at present.” The Queen’s Birthday As rain had been falling almost con- tinuously for scv-ral days bzf'orc thc 24th, it was feared that that day would be Wet also; but this fear was happily : not realise}, as the weather was as fine las could be desired until late in the l cvcninn,whcn the rain Commenced again, l l but it. was only a passing shower.

A Sensible J udga. At Toronto, on Monday last, seven criminals were sentenced to difioront terms of imprisonment, and one of them, George l’onuy, was sent to the Central Prison for two years all but a day for stealing a number of articles from his employer. The judge said : “ In the evidence against you it was shown that you were a professor of Christianity, and yet, while professing and apparently practising it, you were deliberately and systematically stealing .from the man who had employed you out of charity. Asa warning to you and others that Christianity must cease to be made the clokc under which vil- liauy is carried on. I will give you the heaviest penalty the court can imposeâ€"- one year and 364 days in the Central Prison." The News says that “ the surprise of the sitting" occurred when the above sentence was passed, as it was probably expected that Penny's previous profus- siou of religion would lighten his pun- ishment; but Judge Morgan evidently thought, as the Gazette thinks, that it only aggravated his offence. Snivclliug hypocrites may be found in all Churches and all communities, and when one of them does anything that puts him in the clutches of the law, it is only right to take his hypocrisy into consideration and send him to prison for as long a term as possible. , Foot-ball. Our foot-ball club Celebrated the 24th by a match with the Balsam Grove team, on the grounds of the latter on Mrs. Isaac Knight’s farm Having won the toss, the Fcuclori Falls boys kicked the first half hour with the wind in their fa- vor, and when half time was called had - placed two goals to their creditâ€"both kicked by iv. '1‘. Junkin. With the wind in their favor in the last half, the Balsam Grove team scored one goalâ€"â€" kicked by W. J. Copp; the match thus resulting in a victory for “ our side " by 2 goals to 1. The following were the teams : BALSAM Gaovn.â€"W. Copp, captain, goal. H. Daniels and F. Kniglit,'backs, S. Copp. J. Knight and F. Jones, half bucks, F. Green, F. Green, W. J. Copp, A.
