Sir James Whitney briefly explained the Federal order before reading its text. Approach to Hudson Bay is gained by a five-mile strip of land running from the proposed new boundary of Manitoba. to the Nel- son River, and terminating in a half-mile strip of land along the eastern shore of the Nelson River and the Hudson Bay. Provision is hereby made for railway terminals, docks, and elevators; but the ex- tent of these strips along the river and bay must not be greater than ten miles. Access is thus given to Hudson Bay for the Temiskaming and Northern Ontario Railway; and should this railway desire to extend its terminal facilities to Fort Churchill, an additional right of way 200'feet in width from Nelson River to the nearest available point on the Hudson Bay Railway is granted. The T. and N. 0. would then be granted running rights to Fort Churchill for the remaining distance over the Hudson Bay line by the Dominion authorities. \The strip from the boundary to the Nelson River will be transfer- red to Ontario either by grant or by statute upon the Provincial Government making .known the lo- cation preferred, providing that lo- cation is not more than fifty miles from the shore of Hudson Bay at any point. For the selection of these lands Ontario is allowed a period of five years. MAP SHOWING BOUNDARY SETTLEMENT lunacyzfiUQQIO-ZX’. ’\ fill/LE WIDE/ B Ontario Loses a Distinguished Na- tive-Born Son.

CH NESE‘ TROOPS Milli Thrilling Experiences in Pekin.----Missionâ€" aries Holding Out in Compounds Adespatch from Pekin says: A mutiny of Yuan Shi Kai’s soldier-s Started in Pekin at 8 o’clock on Thursday night. Many of the. na- tive’s have been killed or wounded, but so far as is known all foreign- ers are safe. The Legation quarter is crowded, but the missionaries are holding forth in their own com- pounds. - When the outbreak oc- curred it was estimated that 2,000 soldiers took part, but since then the mutineers have been augment-ed by large numbers of the police, coolies and loafers. The Legations know no reason for the outbreak. The idea is expressed that Yuan Shi Kai’s soldiers began the trouble when they learned that he intended to leave the capital for Nanking. The soldiers are everywhere looting from house to house. They have not spared even the foreign resi- dences Within one block of the Le- gation quarrter. .Fires were started in various sec- tions, and territory of more than a mile in area has been burned. This stretches from the. Forbidden City to the building of the Chinese For-' eign Board, where Yuan Shi Kai rc- sides, the flames reaching within half a mile of the Legations. The quarters occupied by the Nanking delegates who came here to notify Premier Yuan of his election as President have been enveloped in flames. Much reckless shooting has occurred, and one shell, which fell into the compound of the American Legation, tore through a tent of one of the soldiers of the recently- arrived reinforcements, but did not explode. Refugees at the American Legation had thrilling experiences as they traversed the streets in which the Chinese troops were en- gaged in looting. The soldiers did not attempt to interfere with them, but there was great danger from flying bullets and fire brands, which were flourished in all directions. Mr. W. D. and Mrs. Straight saved their records and valuables, but deserted a richly-furnished house, which was given over to the looters. â€"â€"â€"â€"_â€"___â€"â€"__.__â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"- Toronto, Mar. 5.â€"Fairly good butcher- ing steers and heifers changed hands at from $6 to $6.50 per hundred pounds, while common to medium loads sold at from $5.25 to $5.90.

' ‘l‘â€"â€"-â€"â€"â€"- THE GREAT COAL STRIKE. Bristol Dock 'Laborers Will Not Handle Imported Coal. A despatch from London says: The coal strike, the greatest in the history of the British Isles, is mark- ing time. One satisfactory feature is the complete absence of any dis- order in the districts effected. All negotiations looking to a settlement have ceased, as the leaders who were recently gathered in London have dispersed to various parts of the country to attend to local mat- ters in connection with the strike. At a mass meeting of the dock workers of Bristol on Sunday a reâ€" solution was adopted to- the effect that imports of foreign coal should not be handled. Most of the rail- ways announce a further curtail- ment of their services. Fourteen stations in London will be closed down altogether until the strike ends .

Nineteen Montreal doctors have been drawing salaries from the city health department. A WOMAN DOCTOR. Was Quick to Discover What Was Doing the Mischief. A lady tells of a bad case of cof- fee poisoning (Tea is equally harm- ful, because it contains caffeineâ€" the same drug found in coffee) and tells it in a way so simple and straightforward that literary skill could not improve it. “I had neuralgia headaches for 12 years,” she says, “and have suf- fered untold agony. When I first began to have them I weighed 140 ~ pounds, but they brought me down to 110. “I went to many doctors and they gave me only temporary relief. So ' [I suffered on, till one day, a wo- man doctor advised me to drink Postum. She said I looked like I was coffee poisoned. “So I began to drink Postum, and gained 15 pounds in the first few weeks and am still gaining, but not so fast as at first. My head- aches began to leave me after I had use-d Postum about two Weeksâ€"long enough, I expect, to get the coffee poison out of my system. “Now that a few months have passed since I began to use Pos- tum, I can gladly say that I never know what a neuralgic headache is like any more, and it was nothing bt Postum that relieved me. “Before I used Postum I never . went out alone; I would get bewil- dered and would not know which way to turn. Now I go alone and my head is as clear as a bell. My brain and nerves are stronger than they have been for years.” Name given by Canadian Postum 00., Windsor, Ont. “There’s a reason,’ and it is‘ ex- plained in the little book, “The Road to Wellville,” in pkgs.
