LIN DSAX'a nu: UHU'L'nLnn COUNCIL OF “ME BOARD OF TRADE MEETS RAILWAY RULES AND ADVERJl TISING COMPETITIONS DIS-i CUSSED â€" FORM OF BILL OF. LADING RECOMENDED. A meeting of the Council of the‘ Board of Trade was held on Thursday, evening of last week, with Mr. John' O'Reilly in the chair. The principal matters for discussion were the new railway rules and the advertising competition. The committee appoint- ed to look into the railway rules re- ported strongly in favor of a. simple receipt being taken from the railway company. all conditions being subject to the common law of the. Dominion. The committee reported as follows: On examination we find that some of these clauses are contrary to the Railway Act and otherwise relieve the railways from liabilities that they are subject to under the common law and statutes as common carriers. which we think is must unjust and Certainly was not intended by Parlia~ ment. It would apron that every Llulc tho railways have had to pay for not carrying the freight properly that. they have framed a. new clause and put. it, on the shipping bill trying to escape from liability.

The theory is plausible, although there is little evidence in its support. We are inclined to think that the choir took its origin later than St. Paul’s day, while free to confess that every historian of note is silent on {the subject. It is difficult to explain fthe total absence of any notice, cs- peciale by later historians. of the 1 emergence of such an institution. Had i the choir! been in existence in St. 1Paul's day, we fail altogether to see how he could have omitted to men- in tion the fact in some of his epistles. g: A later date is preferred on thoi ground of purely internal evidence, IFrom all we have known, or seen of? !the choir, we cannot imagine that it' ‘could have existed any length of time‘ without making its presence known: ‘To whatever date we may assign its; ‘iorigin. there can be no two opinions: 'as to the place it now occupies, and: {the importance of the functions whicth it now discharges. In some remotel ‘placel in Scotland the ancient belielz I "still lingers that the minister is thel most important factor in the ser-l vice. We have heard it whispered. ,that in some of our city congrega-i I 'tions even this antiquated notion still continues to hold a place in the mindsl of old people. As illustrating the inn-1 perviousness of this type of mind to‘ .enlightened ideas, witness the casei ‘ here they object to the choir being elevated to a platform on a level with the pulpit. As might have been‘ _ expected, three of the women and four of the men withdrew their ser- vices ior three successive Sundays in order to mark their displeasure. Ministers are known who think the: the choir should give them their at- tention during the sermon. The ner- mon hall-hour is a welcome relic!~ to Ithe choir.

At the ordinary services the choir feels itself cramped and confin- ed. and experiences no small ance therea't. THE CHOIR STRIKE is a late development, and is suppos- ed by some to have originated con- temporaneously with trades unions. A choir strike is composed of one or more individuals, and may happen at any time like measles or whooping cough. The real cause of choir strikes still remains obscure, notwithstand- ng the exhaustive investigations un- dertaken by men experienced in such phenomena. Some have attributed the cause to swelled head. But while admitting the traces of swelled head are seldom absent from a genuine case of choir strike. we hesitate tol accept that as a sufficient explana-i tion of the evil. Traces of green ego have also been discovered in almost all vn'ulent cases. It may seem acarcelx north mentioning. but in lassing. me would notice the theoryl lately promulgated that choir strikes are really traceable to no cam-e at all. Such an explanation is Worthy of consideration. Mill's “canons," it is true. do not contemplate any- thing 0! the nature of uncaused phe- nomena. But we ha\e no reason (or supposing that the data on “hich \Iill based his “canons" included the choir strikes In that case \\\I may tregard choir strikes as sui xenezla. and thus admit the theory referred to as a possible explanatim.
