Heroic Attempts It Rescue. £ ’Although the accident occurred at I o'clock Monday evening, the ofliâ€" cials and firemen were unable to de- mand into the tunnel, owing to the minding clouds of smoke frOm the {naming train. Frequent attempts were made by heroic volunteers .whom it was necessary to rescue half sufiocated and carry away to the hospitals. At the station of Les Courennes the same scenes of death and despair had been enacted. The accident oc- curred midway between the stations of Monilmontant and Les Courcnnes, so that the work of salvage proceed- ed from both ends of the tunnel.

Pr'r’l’Tm'l the! Dr. Frederick Tracy, lecturer on :e tarâ€"i philosophy in University College, To- grcpel ronto, at the Presbyterian summer snnes, 3 school, in speaking of “An Infant’s ocked‘ Inheritance," said the period of in- ,. i fancy is longer in the higher series :fleryi of beings, shorter in the lower. The 'd of; lowest have no infancy. The higher thOSe 3 the civilization the longer the period “ere,r of infancy and tutelage. The signifi- ‘ thei cance of this is that the human in- tun-p fant has great possibilities. Prof. i Tracy defines an educated man as one nle to who is prepared for all emergencies, rning; the man who rises to the occasion. ,umb- ; Education, therefore, is the process acksfi of fitting him for his environment, inga. to enter upon his. inheritance. His 0 dis-3 inheritance is fivefold: (1) Material, rig a scientific, nature; (2) literaryâ€"all )r thei that has been left by his foria- rs of there in the form of literature; (3) rperâ€". aestheticalâ€"art, music, etc; (4) so- [ cialâ€"institutional; (5) religious; the Church must become more efficient , outi- than it has been if the child is to : enter into his specilal inheritance. Dr. .d ati Tracy pointed out that, among the its a. 1 changes, some move toward a better 1 state of things. It is only in man Ithat the word “better” has an eth- |ical bearing. Man's culture is for | 4 a . man's own sake, and this cannot be , said of anything else on earth. Ed- ’ ucation is given a. child because he , has God's image, an end in himself. , All education has its end in some ‘ form of human character. and Canadian Proubytoriam will hour with :qgrot. that. tho docillon to tear down the old St. Gabriel Strut Church Montreal, has been curried out. and that nothin. now ”main. of that historic atructuro but the record: and memorials oi it: Clut- once It has mado way {or an ax- tension or the court homo. and thus tho first landmark o!

But if it shauld prove that the fish loiter about the mouths of fresh water openings and may be coaxed to take bait there, there will be great rejoicing on the part of the great army of anglers who cannot afford to hire a Salmon river. but will be glad to take chance of getâ€" ting fast to one of these noble fish in the open sea. tern. he emigrntvd in 1871, and bought a farm near ()riilia, and in addition to farming acted on Pro- vincial Land SurVoyor.
