Nab The East Victoria. Liberal Conserva- tive Association will meet in conven- tion at Fenelon Falls on \Vednesday, Sept. 11th, 1901, at 11 o’clock a. m. The principal ' will be the election of officers for the association and the selection of a. candidate for the forthcoming provin-< cial elections. The meeting Will be addressed by Messrs. \V. H. Hoyle, M.P.P., Col. Sam. Hughes, M.P., S. J. Fox, M.P.P., J. H. Carnegie, M.P.P., and other gentlemen. This promises to be the greatest convention ever held at Fenelon Falls. roadmaking, and our Council are mov- ing in the right direction. The Hon. John Dryden, minister of agriculture, has troubles of his own just now. It has leaked out that the Minister of Agriculture has for some time past been investing the emolu- ments of his office and other sundry cash in ranching speculations in North Dakota. This is bad for the minister. Naturally a. newspaper tempest has been let loase. and party papers on‘ both sides are making unhealthy com-1 parisons between his glowing speeches; regarding the wonderful resources of? New Ontario and his solid investments in North Dakota. The liberal press is greatly exercised over the exposure, and while some few are loyal‘to him and endeavor to defend his action, there are others who come out boldly and denounce his course. The Goderich Signal administers a. timely warning, not only to the Minister Of Agriculture but to the Cabinet as well, as follows : THE MAKING OF GOOD ROADS. “How in the name of common sense‘ is the rank and file of the Liberal pai‘ty in Ontario to keep its feet if alleged leaders of the party," will insist uprn doing foolish things which are bound to act to its detriment ? . “It is difilcult enough for the rural constituencies to keep the party in power without having cabinet minis- ters furnishing powder and ball to the enemy: and yet it would seem that some of our cabinet ministers think they can do as they please, and that none of their doings should be ques- tinned. And right here we may inform these gentlemen that if they expect support from the ‘Reform party they will need to be. a. little more circum- ’spect in their doings. There are any? number of Reform newspapers. and thousands of Liberals. who are not prepared to swallow the words and actions of some of the Ontario Cabinet Ministers, and the sooner these gentle- men realize this fact and quit acting as if they were in a bed of roses the better. AFTER THE HON. JOHN DRYDEN “It will require all .the grit and gumption of the Provincial Liberals to hold their own at the next election, and this is no time for Hon. John Dryden to go into DakOta ranching speculations, or for any of his associ- o must necessarlly cost. t1 minister of ‘9 ates in the Cabinet to engage in other deals that may come up in judgment against the party at ‘ election time. The Signal wants the party to Win at the next election, and there is no possibility of Winning if the men Who are looked upon as leaders are going to queer the party by actions which cannot be defended in the press or on k the platform.” â€"-Mr. J.

Last week a fine 16â€"pound ’lunge was caught by the veteran Indian fisherman Charlie McHugh. and a few days later three 10 pounders were captured at Emily Creek. Hardly an evening passes but several of our cottagers make successful strikes. The weed bed between Mrs. Walkies' and the sand- bar seems to be a favorite cruising ground for the tinny tribe also across the lake at the mouth of the river. --â€"On, Monday last the Marie ;Louise brought to town from the ilake shore a scow load of gravel for the granolithic pavements now under construction. The gravel was taken ‘irom the sand bar. reducing it. some- that. The property owners threat- en an action and dire vengeance upon Com. Chalmers if he comes again. While the scow was being loaded the Marie-Louise. took a party of friends, guests at “Hideaway Cottage," for a trip to Bobcaygeon and return. It was a most enjoyable outing. â€"-Last week we had a visit from a. Lindsay tonsorial artistâ€"a dead game sport. He is a recent arrival‘ in town but had heard of the fam- ous fish caught in the Kawartha lakes and was anxious to give. them a tussle. Accordingly with a few friends he repaired to the fishing grounds across the lake and in due time hooked onto a 41,1), pound hinge and landed it. He declared it. weigh- ed 9 pounds and not an ounce less. and backed his statement with a small wager. When shore was reachâ€" ed the fish was weighed. lt tipped the scales at 71,43 pounds. but upon inspection it was found that the bar- ber had stuffed three pounds of grav- el down the lunge's throat. He agreed to buy 10 cents cigars all around if the matter was kept quiet. Your correspondent visited Plea- sant Point on Monday evening last and was well attended by the cit- izens there. After some fishing a fine bon fire was lighted in front of Mr. Alex. McCrimmon's cottage and blazed cheerfully through the quiet hours. “Rube" Morgan played some fine selections on the graiuaphone which were heartily received, after which came balmy sleep, nature's sweet restorer. We were up early in the. morning and again practising on the finny tribe. Not much luck, how- ever, the morning being too fine but had the satisfaction of a good ap- petite and a part of a ’lunge. one of the three caught by Mr. Kitchener. the largest tipping the beam at 14 lbs .

A., minister of the first. Presbyterian church, Port Hope. The deceased was born in Mariposa and is the sister of Mr. D. R. Anderson. barrister of this town. The circum- stances surrounding her death are particularly sad. During the first week of her illness her husband was taken with typhoid fever and was forced to go to the hospital in Tor- onto, where he is yet, though slow- ly convalescing. She leaves behind her sorrowing husband and twin babies 14 months old. Those who remember her when she resided in this county will recall the lively dis- position, her geniality and kindness, ever trying to enhance the happiness ufothers'. though making many sac- rifices herself. We hear of her great popularity in Port Hope. not only among her own church people but also among those of other churches. Devoted to her own church work yet always ready to help in any work where the object was to do good to 01 hers. She was endowed with great gifts as a. singer of sacred song and spared not her voice when good could be accomplished. Her friends will learn of her death with much regret. and their sympathy will go out to their sorrowmg friends. â€"â€"-T0ronto is now in third place in the Eastern League. â€"â€"'I‘he Toronto nailing yacht, “In- vader" defeated the Cadillack in thrvc raCcS out of four for the Canada Cup, which has been held across the lines 1' or some years. â€"-On Thursday \Villiam Stintson defeated Archie McEachern of Toron- to in a. twenty-mile paced bicycle race at the Coliseum at Bufialo on Monday night. in 30.18 2-5, lowering the world's record. â€"-.-\t Brighton Beach, N.

She w” Very "sin and Inordlnutely Fond of Fine Dre... Yet Elizabeth was never really suc- cessful with her wardrobe as a more feminine woman might have been. Her dresses were never beautiful, only lu- dicrously and most inappropriately magnificentâ€"laden with jewels, weight- ed dovvn with cloth of gold. stifl with silver embroidery and so heavy that even her big, powerful frame must, without supporting vanity, have felt the fatigue of carrying them about. Elizabeth was certainly vain, but she cannot claim femininity merely on that account, for vanity is by no means an exclusively feminine characteristic. There are perhaps more vain women than vain men because women have more leisure and their costumes aflord greater opportunities for vanity than I AI n__ ”Link QUEEN ELIZABETH’S FAULTS thuLVL vr‘,-_- the strangely hideous clothing which custom has arranged for men, but no thoughtful (feminine) observer can doubt that a rain man is vainer than a vain woman. Elizabeth's hands were her especial pride. and, judging from her portraits, they were certainly beautiful. They were laden with Jewels, and it was her habit in public to pull her rings oi! with absent artlessness and push them s... â€".._-7c on again. moving those white hands about in the most obvious way. Once, during the grave consideration of a state paper. wherein her cold sagacity never took second place. she interrupt- ed the discussion to ask whether the Due d‘Anjou. who was at one time one of her euitors. had been told what a pretty foot she had and how white and well rounded was her arm? This in the woman who financed the armada with hard headed economy, who dared the superstitious terrors of her own conscience in her high handed and im~ pudent treatment of the bishops. whose interest in methods of torture for state prisoners was most mechanical and in- telligent. entirely unhampered by any squeamish feminine hesitation as to blood or pain. is most curious. In connection with this last charac- teristic of cruelty vanity is not at all unprecedented. Indeed, if one observe closely one will notice that excessively vain persons have almost always a strange inclination toward cruelty. The accounts of what Queen Elizabeth permitted and indeed commanded in this respect will hardly bear reading by us sensitive folk today. Slavery Protected the Negro. It the negro had been forced to com- pete for existence in America, he would have been crushed out by the civilized power, as the Indian has been, says Albert Phelps in The Atlantic, but the peculiar institution of slavery protect- ed him not only from this competition, but also. by artificial means. from those great forces of nature which inevitably weed out the weaker organisms and1 which operate most unrestrainedly up- on the ignorant savage. For the first time, perhaps. in the history or the world human beings had been bred and regulated like valuable stock with as much care as is put upon the best horses and cattle. As a natural conse- quence the sanitary condition of the negro during slavery was remarkable. especially by contrast with his present condition. and his growth was the ab- normal growth of a plant abnormally raised in a hothouse. When. therefore. this mass of helpless beings was thrown upon its own resources by the act of emancipation and when the pro. tection of slavery had been withdrawn, .the dircst wretchedness and suffering followed. The path of glory leads but to the grave, but it is the most pleasant route. â€"Portland Oregonian. _ Hawkinsâ€"At, Oakwood, on Aug 7th to Mr. and Mrs. Geo. J. Hawkins, a. son.
