EKITCHEN HONORED. Iondon, July 14,â€"Lord Kitchener, a arrival at Buckingham Palace, Saturday, \Was speedily conducted to the King’s sick chamber, and His Injesty, from his couch, extended a. warm welcome to him and personal- h expressed his thanks tor the ter- mination of hostilities. The King then presented Lord Kitchener with the decoration of the New Order of Herit. The General next saw the Queen. after which he drove to Lord RobertS' residence, in Portland Place.

J. w- Hpcmillanâ€"The prom» this 0! the binding proposed an Rev. J. W. Macmillanâ€"I very ear- nestly feel that we should not ask Mr. Carnegie for any more money. There are two ways 0! regarding him â€"you may think of him as a. brigand whose money is blood money that’ ought not to be touched. That is how some labor organizations regard him. You may on the other hand regard him as a brigand who is giv- ing up his spoil, and from whom he should get all we can. Regarding him in that light we should not take his money as a gift at all but at the point of a pistol. We have not re- garded him in that way. He is a rich man and has a right to do ache pleases with his ‘money. He has generously given us $10,000. It ‘ we had raised that sum by our own sub- scription, we should think that it was enough to build such a library as we need. I am opposed to going back to Mr. Carnegie for more. 1 hope you have seen the very sensible article in the Globe on that subject. It had the right.r1ng. It says that it is beneath the dignity of Canadiâ€" ans and something less than‘a self- respecting thing to go back the sec- ond time. We should raise the bal- ance ourselves if it is needed. I a: not rich but I should prefer to give my share rather than asking Mr. Mr. Mooreâ€"That is what we should do. Mr. Carnegie has done well for us. He-got his money as honestly as others who have made millions. PUBLIC LIBRARY MAY NOT ASK MR. CARNEGIE FOR MORE MONEY Estimates will be (lot on Two Sizes of ’ Buildings. The Public Library Board met on Monday night. A formal demand was made on council for the submis- sion of a by-law for $2000 to pur- chase a library building site. It was decided not to ask Mr. Carnegie for any more money at present. The plans for a. building smaller than the one for which the. firSt plans were made, were examined and specifica- tions of both will be got and tenders called for. The chief discussion turned on whether Mr. Carnegie should be asked for more money, and was as follows : Carnegie for more.
