BILâ€"About 7.30 o‘clock last night two houses situated on Saint Laurent street at the west end of the Grand Trunk yard, Port Levis, were crushed by an avalanche of snow, which fell from the cliff above. One of the houses, the property of Mr. J. C. Hamel of Levis, was occupied by four families, and the other by Mr. James King, a carter employed by the Grand Trunk. In the tenement, Mr. Emile Anger and two of his children were killed and Miss King, a young daughter of Mr. King. aged about 8. also met the same fate. A son of Mr. King had his two legs broken and Mr. King was also badly injured. Several of the other occupants are also injured. “Believe me, as ever, dear Sir William, yours very sincerely.

Mr. Sitton, towhom I gave immediate communication of this letter, stated that the above assertion was alto- gether untrue. I thereupon invited Mr. Hamilton Smith to meet me this morn- ing in my office, and he accordingly met me there, in presence of a few of my col- leagues. and there, in anSWer to our on- quiries, stated that you were the ‘mutual friend’ who had communicated between himself and Mr. Sifton. Under such cir- cumstances I would feel obliged if you would let me know, at your earliest con- venience, whether, as is claimed by Mr. Hamilton Smith, you can corroborate his statement. "I replied that, in my judgment, which I felt sure, from my familiarity with the country, was correct, the Sti- klne line had practically no value as a commercial route and that no sane capl- talist would invest a penny in it.

Mr. Smith in his letter makes the following assertions: r.“ ‘My associates and myself have {fer many years .been connected with the {headmill mine and other gold minm on the coast of Alaska. so that wehave been especially familiar with that northern country. Last year, at our instance, Mr. Henry Brantnober was sent on an explor- ing expedition from Lynn Canal to Daw- son, with instructions to see what route was best adapted for the construction of a railway from the coast to the unob- structed waters of the Yukon. He returned via the socalled Dalton trail from Rink Rapids, by Hootchie and Dalton's Post, to Pyramid Harbor, noting elevations, distances and the character of the coun- try. He was, we are informed, the second white man who had passed over theentire length of this line. His report to us was so favorable as to the many advantages of this route, that as soon as your Minis- ter of the Interior returned from the West I approached him, through a mutual friend, oflering to build in the year 1898 a substantial railway from Pyramid Har- bor to Rink Rapids, with nocashsnbsidy, but with a reasonable land grant, cover- ing mineral rights. I referred by author- ity to several of the leading financial firms in London, showing that ourability to build such a line was beyond question. “ ‘The answer I received was that the Gchrmucnt might prefer the Scikine- Teslin route to this.’ ,VALANCHE CAUSED DEATH- THREE FATALITIES.

Roman and English history, which were extensively and accurately taught. also mathematics and literary composition. The Latin and Greek classes. prose and verse, were studied more diligently in that and similar private schools in Ire- land in those days than in many colleges of high repute at the present time. At fifteen years oi age, having com- pleted the English and eia-ical curri- culum of studies in the Dungarvan school. he was sent by hi! parents to Rome for his ecclesiastical education. Pope Gregory XVI. then were the tiara; and Dr. Cullen, subsequently Cardinal Archbishop of Dublin, was rector of the Irish College in Rome, this being an ex- clusively ecclesiastical seminary. in which everyCatholicBishopin Irelandhadthe right of placing a certain number oi pupils. The Bishop of Waterford. to whom James Vincent Cleary was sub jocted. recalled the latter from Rome, and placed him in the Royal College of Mayo ncoth. Here he passed iive years in the pursuit of ecclesiastical sciences. Philoso- phy. history, dogmatieand moral theology. scriptural exegesis and canon laws con~ stituted the curriculum. He won the highest prizes at the college in each de- partrnent of study. His course in May- nooth having been completed in live years, he received the order of deacon- ship. which hound him irrevocably to the ecclesiastical state. and he returned home to Dungarvau in June. l851. being still too young to be admitted to the priest. hood.
