O’Neill. crossed the Nia- gara River from Black Rock and camped at Fort Erie. The male of the village was called on to provide the army with provisions. and the re- freshments were produced after a hasty conclave of the local authorities. A detachment of the band was sent to cut wires and destroy bridges along the. Buffalo and Lake Huron Railway (now the Grand Trunk). and the main body took up a position at Frenchman’s Creek. Here O’Neill rested for a day, awaiting reinforcements, but in their his force having melted away until only about 700 remained. The Fenians held a strong. concealed position. into which Col. Booker's troops blundered, unsus- pecting the presence of the enemy. There was an interchange of fire, af- ter which the Canadian force retired, the ammunition of the Queen’s Own beâ€" ing exhausted. The Fenians, however, were outflanked and forced out of their position. Blunders and Accidents. -'l‘o describe in detail the succession of blunders and accidents that ac- companied subsequent fighting and the final retreat of O’Neill across the border would occupy a. full column. and give satisfaction to no one. says The Mail and Empire. Upon Capt. Akâ€" ers, R. E, most of the blame has de- scended, for on tw0 occasions his fail- ure to properly deliver his superiors orders caused disaster. "A junction of two Canadian forces that would have swept the Fenians from the field was defeated through this officer’s neglect. The campaign, if a raid of a. day might be so called. was too short and the alarm too sudden to permit of initial blunders being atoned for; but the in- vaders were chased out of the country. at the cost of a' few lives on either side. Canada received only indirect compen- sation for the Fenian outrage, in the shape of a guarantee of her Intercolon- ial loan. for at the request of England this country did not press its claims on the United States. Had this been; done they would have been allowed, and a. precedent established which would have cost Britain several extra million pounds in the matter of the Ala- bama claims. So that, after all, the United States was the chief sufferer financially through the madness ofl John O’Neill. _â€"__-â€"-â€"â€"â€"-â€"â€" SALMON WHICH L’EAP. New Brunswick’s Fishery Commission- I or Tells of Seeing Them at Play. Mr. D. G. Smith, Fishery Commis- sioner of New Brunswick, tells an in- teresting story of how he obtained the photograph of the “leaping salmon" ex- hibited in the window at the Intercolon- intoRaleay office. Toronto. Ont. Many p ple who had never hcnrd of leaping salmon doubted the genuineness of this product of the photographic art. After remarking that his picture had obtained prizes in magazines. Mr. Smith says: "As the photograph is exactly what it purports to bc. and has been favorably . judged by those who are competent in. such matters. and as the lntcrcolonlai- Railway has added to its excellent series of exhibition bromides. it. is right that the usperslon on its grnulncncsr should be met by 9. statement of the cir- cumstancm under which it was tltkvn.

The administration of the truancyact is re- l quired at the same time, as it is no davantage to the child to escape the' factory to run wild on the streets.

The. law requires employers to protect the but it is stated that the workers them- l selves do not always co-operalte. Ca- l- tarrh of the respiratory organs is us-. ually the first result of inhaling dust-l laden air, and it paves the way for} pulmonary disease. Dust particles gain } access to the system through slight abrasions of ‘the skin and cause malig- l nant pustules, ragpickers’ disease, glamders and affections of the eyes. Rhoe, a Massachusetts physician; is; quoted on the average life duration inl that state. Factory workers live 36.3 years; craftsmen. 50.8; farmers, 63, and workmen without definite occupa-l tion. 47.4 years. An examination of the| sources of supply of fresh air concludes that there are no decisive reasons for. preference in the adoption of any of the l three locations, near the ground. 25 to? 40 feet above ground or from the roof. Canners From Buffalo. The importance of the growing cen- ning industry is dwelt upon, and it is regretted that Canadian labor is not more prevalent. Pollacks, Italians andl Swedes from Buffalo and Lockport do the work on plecework wages, and it is stated that many of the girls return with $200 to their homes as their sea.- son’s savings. The conditions of hous- ing and living of these workers is se- verely criticized. Overcrowding is rc- ported. In one case sixtee‘n females slept in a room ten by sixteen. It is: recommended that a person should be solely employed in making up beds, and keeping them clean. in airing the rooms and such work. As it is, the beds arel never made, the rooms are shut up tight all day. and the workers return at 9' at night to the rooms unchanged since Filthyl habits and want of sanitation are al- luded to. and evidently there is room for improvement. Some factories are in the habit of locking their doors during working! hours. This is against the law. and must be stopped. The danger in case of fire and panic is obvious. Under the actvone hour must be given for the noon meal Some prefer to; take half an ho‘ur and get away half an hour earlier in the evening. but the in- speotors take the position of enforcing the act. Practical Suggestions. 'Warnlng is given against storing coal. especially bituminous coal. near boilers. Other sources of spontaneous combustion are also indicated. The bursting of cmery and corundum wheels is mentioned, and frequent in- spectlon urged. as well as the adoption! of hoods as safeguards.

A young woman. a blue ribbon, and a pet lamb were seen on Eork street near Front. the other afternoon. say: The Toronto Star. Beheld separately the sight would have been unprecedent- ed, though lambkins don't frolic every day on the King‘s highway. The three- in-one attraction. so to speak. was dif- ferent. The lady’s name may not have been Mary, and the lamb in the flesh boasted not the snowy fleece attributed to the lamb celebrated in poetry. Trutl‘. to tell, the lamb that almost blocked York street needed a bath. Sundry roll: 0‘: the city pavements hold impaire the immaculate whiteness discovered by the poet. Still. the juvenile sheep cre- ated a. sensation. Crowds gathered. and so did the police. Incidentally several dogs took an interest in the woolly visi- tor.

The officials of the Education D9- partmen-t who went to visit the famous l dare prophesy as to the‘ mineral pos- serpent mound in Otonabee Township. Peterboro’ County, say they found the mound in a fairly well preserved condi- tion, but that unless immediate steps are taken to preserve it, this interest- ly lost to posterity. The mound is not being dmtroyed by the farmer who owns the land, but cur- iosity seekers from all over the coun- ture, to James Bay. The first persons encountered at the end of steel besides the construction gangs ”were two proa- pectors, one a ’man well-l up in years, the other a. mere youth, both can-yingenor- , mous packs and both‘full of the enthus- iasm and hope regarding the possibili- ties of rich mineral discoveries which shall mean more Cobalts» in the north. “There are minerals here." the excur- sionists were told as they stood at the end of 'steel. “Indications of iron have been more than once 'encountered of late.

The talk at the end of steel, which is: at a point where a. wide ravine 1'. being.‘ partly filled and partly trestled, turned naturally toward the future of the road. It mus. go on to James Bay -wa.s the general opinion, and the nonversation on the subject was stimulated by the information of those who know the country that the train was within five miles of that section of the country where the waters flow from James Bay instead of toward it. At the end of steel the members of the party were the guests at a dinner given in the construction camp which bears the name of Boston by Mr. Macdonell, the contractor. It was an excellent meal; everyone enjoyed it. Appetites were keen because of the tramping around the party had done at the end of steel and in the bush'alongside the, track. It may surprise some readersâ€"as it certainly surprised some of those on the excursionâ€"to know that stravlfber- viesâ€"ripe at thatâ€"were found in quan- tities in the bush, and they were tasty to the palate. Wild flowers were also found in abundance. The line on the second section of the road. as far as it goes. is rough yet, as , is 'to be expected. but the work is mak- ing excellent progress. and in a com- paratively short time it will be as smooth, no doubt, as on the first sec- . tion. The Excursionists at Haileybury. The party was welcomed at Hailey- bury by several decorated arches across the main street of the town bore streamers, with legends such as "We Welcome the Legislators to Hailey- bury,” and “Haileybury Greets You." There was no formal program. thI party contenting themselves with a walk around the streets and along the wharf. exchanging informal greeting: with the townspeople, each of whom believes. as every resident of every town. village and hamlet in this north- ern country does. that his "burg” is the metropolis of New Ontariop A Great Country. Long before the train reached North Bay, and right on to the end of steel. and afterwards as they called over Lake Temagami, the exourelonlsts. who visit- ed this part of the country for the first ‘llme. were struck by the visible evil- donces of the timber wealth of the re- gion. tho sawmills. pine logs and pulp- wood along the lino and on the ‘l‘t‘lfl‘lll cars. and the arm: virgin stretches of pine timber on Tomngaml. telling their own story. in addition. the agricultur- al possibilities of tho treat fertile tract, are past the tllmry stage. and the min- eral Wealth is beyond conception.

The Dominion Line steamer Ottawa and the C. P. R. steamer Lake Erie ur-l rived wt Quebec recently with over: eighteen hundred immigrants between! them, including twanty men and women of the Israelite community. on route to‘ their farm establishments at Benton * Harbor. Michigan. The men and wo- men of this peculiar sect are a strange- looking people. Both sexes wear theiri hair long down their backs and present, an appearance of comfort. Thos. Rowe} a meek, subdued individual, manager. of the affairs of the community, was. at the landing to meet the new-comers, and in conversation. with a. newspaper: correspondent said the Israelites were. founded in 1799, and represent the! members of the ten lost tribes, and, were now gathering at Benton Harborn where they had purchased farm land? and were engaged in agriculture until the time arrived that the stipulated number of the twelve tribes, in all one, hundred and forty-four thousand. were; got together, when they would proceed: to Jerusalem to await the second' coming of Christ in 1918. when the pres- ent world would end and new condi- try have commenced digging and tear- tions prevail.
