Lindsay is not a sentimental town; neither are its citizens given to demon- stration. We are abuslnesa-like, pracâ€" tical community, that realizes the full meaning of events and appreciates them at their full value without being over- come by them. But: there are times when the occasion warrants that we cut loose a little, shake out a reef or two and \celebrate. Thursday last-was such a time. Early in the morning a war oflice despatch arrived saying that part of Gen. Bulier’s army had entered Ladyamith. This was news that made the most phiegmatio burgher realize that something ought to be‘ done about it. And straightway something was done and very creditably. In an hour there was more bunting tug- ging in the gale than one would imagine :vas possessed in two counties. Those who owned flags promptly set them con- spicuously up, to the dismay of their less fortunate neighbors, who raced about looking for another little patch of turkey red, fearful all the while lest the delay ‘ghould bring suspicion on their loyalty.‘ Flag-poles were certainly seditious. Encased in sleet, pulleys and cordage refused to be a party to the jubilation. They showed a. dlstluc'a coldness toward it. With a (SO-mile blizzard and a 10- below temperature, the house-top was a WAS GLAD THE EXILE BRITON TO HIS HEART (Written on reading Lord Rosebery’s statement the Empire was in danger.) The olden impulse stirs once more The fierceness none can tame, At thought of Britain’s far-off shore, The sound of Britain’s name ; The memories her glories start, The centuried pulses stir ; When she is all alone, my heart, You could not break with her. Though generations crumbling down Do separate us twain, And distance veils, at her renown The b‘ood leaps up again ; Though all the world stood stern apart In hate and grim confer, When she is all alone, my heart, You could not break with her. Betwixt our being, each to each, Though briny leagues apart, There runs the silrern cord of speech, The golden of the heart ; So let the howling jackal start, Or snarl the alien curâ€" Wiien she is all alone, my heart. You could not break wzth her. Though sordid dreams may mar her, and By lesser loves beguiled, Building in glory ropes of sand, She may forget her child ; Yet back unto his mother’s breast, Through mists of years that blur, The banished Briton leaps at last To fight and die for her. I see the old-time banners wave, I hear the centuried drum, And back I haste to soldier grave At her low Spoken “Come !” For though her alien sous depart, And all her dreams that wereâ€" When she is all alone, my heart, You could not break with her. Glory is glory, death is death, And darker days may loom, But the Briton’s honor is his breath ; And when she tronts her doom, Though she hath dreamed us far apart For what our fathers wereâ€" Though she is all alone, my heart, We could not break with her. Ottawa. Now, in her hour of danger dark, When ringed by hostile foe, When every nation is an ark For those who wish her woe ; Let traitors in their hate depart, Disloyalty demurâ€"â€" But we are Britain’s, heart to heart, We \vizl not break with her. place in which even patriotic ardor inclined to chill, but ardor of another and more demonstrative sort took its place in the breast of the man on the roof, when the hunting stuck at half-mast and refused to either advance or retreat. The agitation of the owners of such flag-poles was aflecting. However, at length the ropes and pulleys all relented and Brit- ain’s colors never floated more proudly than from the masthesds of this town” Patriotism and humanity prompted the celebration. Men were proud that a British garrison had been saved from surrender and grateful that: the dreadful privations of a prolonged siege had come to an end. With the exception of an effigy of President Kruger, that dangled by the neck, there was no touch of revenge in it all. With amazlng alaorlty Capt. Crandell commandeered the names of two of his colleagues to a document requesting the mayor to proclalm the afternoon a. half- holiday. His Worship readily assented, ' and soon dodgers announcing the decision were fluttering along the streets. Steam whistles mingled with fire and church belle in making melodious discord. The? firemen at the different factories had to “‘bear that woodpiie down " in double quick time to keep the whistles going, and the bell-ringers had to be frequently relieved while they went to the nearest refresh meut counter. Meanwhile the bollegiate people had been breaking the peace moat loyally in their big residence on the hill. When‘ the patriotic geetionlatlone of Principal Haretone and several of his staff officers had been duly applauded, Capt. Routley ordered his cadets to charge upon the main petition, and with all their available reserves. the forces of war and culture book possession of Kent street. Their exuberant: hilarity was a tonic to the civic spirits and set: the pace for more timid W. Wilfred Campbell souls. Under the inspiration of the moment: one merchant set fire to a nail keg in front: of his piece of business. By noon the main thoroughfare was a lane threading two solid walls of hunting, and citizens wearing the loyal colors exchanged cheery greetings as they hur- ried to and fro in the gale. At night a company of the 45th battal- ion, under Major Sylvester, Capt. Hen- ley’s cadets and Capt. Routley’s boys in blue, one piece of artillery, the battalion band and a torchlight company made a demonstration in force on Kent street. To avoid a stampede of the mules, a dozen teams of the small boy was attached to the artillery, which consisted ofa 2.7 Scotchkiss piece under command of its owner, Sergt.-Major Martin of dusseli- st., Balaclava, etc, attended by Gunner Galbraith of Her Majesty’s civil service. IAs the teams dragged the piece to new positions, the commander operated the range finder with wonderful rapidity and from safe quarters behind a telephone pole, ordered the gunner to fire, which he did at long rance. The gun made splen- did practice and certame saved the situ- ation. Charlie Podqer was hit in the eye at 2000 yards. It was a close call for the sight, but he will be back in the fighting line as soon as he can get the bandage off. Despite the terrible cold and blizzard several thousand citizens were on che street and cheered the patrio~ tic music and demonstration. Col. Deacon spoke a few words and called for cheers for “Bobs,” White, Buller and the Queen. This gave the crowds a chance to cheer, and they did not lose it. school children. â€"SJme juvenile thieves took away a. good many dollars’ worth of email bunt:- lng that. was left out over night. The police are on their track. â€"When Some timid folk remonstreted with Saga-Major Martin that the con- cussion of his cannon would break the windows, the grizzled warrior cried : “Send in the bill, let her go Bill 1 ” â€"At the Guttu Percha end Rubber works, in Parkdule, F riday s pro-Boer who made remarks considered by his fellow-employes as deragacory to the dignity of the Queen was seized and hustled about until he was glad to go down on his knees and beg pardon for his disloyal utterances. â€"Friday night: Fort Erie village was thrown into a state of excitement by the bold kidnapping of one of its citizens, Mr. H. V. Meulen, a Boer sympathizer. Between 10 end 11 o’clock Mr. Menlen was culled out of the house and was at once seized and driven away in s cutter. A large Union Jack was plsced on the house and left floatlng as a warning to all Boer sympathizere. East Victoria Farmers’ Institute An extra meeting of the East Victoria Farmers Institute was held at Bobcat- geon, on Friday Feb. 23rd, when Mr. Mche, a premlnent farmer and breeder of Wellington county. spoke. The hall was not largely filled and Mr. McCrea’s address pet-book more of an informal talk and covered many subjects. He spoke first at Mr. M. Boyd’s re- quest on shallow cultivation. It was mlsnamed and should be surface cultiva- tion. He said soil should be enriched on the surface and continued to be enriched as you go down, gradually plowing a little deeper and mixing it with the richer soil on top till a good depth was attained. The people in the Island of Jersey he said plowed 17in. deep and kept: it thor- oughly well cultivated and fertilized. All farmers must use judgmeni and brains in surface cultivation; the main thing is to keep the fertility ready for the growing crop. He sowed clover seed with :11 his grain crops maintaining that it was the cheapest manure he could buy and always took off at least one crop for hay. At present he has a three course rotation, (1) corn and roots, (2) oats and peas. (3) hay and wheat. Tuberculosis was touch- ed upon. Stebling wise not the cause of It. but ill ventilated low ceilings, poorly llghted stables were a great help; five hours sunlight would kill the germ while lt would live for your: in a stable with conditions suitable to lt. In answer to a question by Mr. John Lewis. he said that sheep were the most: profitable snimsl on the farm and would like to see formers keep the same breed of sheep. Mr. Murdock. siso read an interesting paper on the ptepsrstion of fodders for live stock. recommending s veil balanced ‘rstion as the most productive sad eeonomicsl.
