Scotia have become alive to the importance and great need of a prohibi- tory movement to stem the tide of in- temperance which is sweeping over that Province. On Thursdav, the 15th inst, a prohibitory plebiscite was taken at the samé time the general elections for the Province were held. and the result is that the measure carried by a. vote of nearly four to one. Thus are the people of the Dominion clamoring for a. sup- pression of the liquor traffic, while the liquor-loving members of Parliament are evading the responsibility of legis- lating upon the matter. Every Friday Mornifig Mr. Maclean, the conservative mem- ber for East York, has introduced what will prove no doubt a. popular bill. It is one to prevent railway. companies from charging more than two cents a. mile for railway passenger tickets. Many of the American States have such alaw. but in the United States the rates are already, as a rule lower than that, and the limit imposed has little effect. General Booth, of the Salvation Army, will visit Canada. this fall, when he will conduct a. Jubilee Salvation Campaign throughout the Dominion and United States. The Toronto Telegram occasionally says a good thing, as, forinstance. when it observes that Grits of the David Mills school might trade a little wisdom for some much needed common sense. Bill\ 'ye is about to retire from the le‘ture platform, and go to his model farm in North Carolina. He calls it. a model farm because it costs him three times as much to run it as he gets out of it. Here are a. couple of nuts for the blue. ruin fraternity to crack :â€" “ Notwith- standing alleged discontent in Manitoba and the North-West, hundreds think it a. preferable habitation to Dakota and Minnesota, and the country is fast till- ing up." " A special train of twenty -five cars broncht settlers from Kansas City to Edmonton district, N. W. '1‘., on March 28th.” The plebiscite vote in Prince Edward Islandâ€"The returns show the following vote: Totals for the Province for pro- hibition 10,5 85, total against 3,331 ;total majority for prohibition 7,254. One vote was cast for prohibition in St. Agatha, Waterloo county. and 93 against. A bet was made that there would not be a single vote for prohibi- tion there, and one took the bet, to save his money voted the prohibition ticket. That there is a strong feeling stirring in favor of a reduction of the present railway fares is proven by the forward- ing of several bulky petitions to the Do- minion House, praying for in. first-class fare of two cents and a. second-class tare of one cent and a. quarter upon all rail- ways. In the House of Commons, on Friday, in reply to Chas. Fairbairn, M. P., Hon. Mr. Foster said that the Government had;no official information as to the re- moval of the embargo against the im‘ portation of Canadian cattle into Great Britain. ' THE OMEMEE MIRROR. ()MEMEE.

There are times when partner- ship runs smooth but there are times when it does not. Scarcely two weeks ago, Richard Fallis of (‘avam was laid to rest in Gardiner-’8 burying ground, and it was only to day that the remains of his wife were laid beside him. She had been ailing for some time, but the death of her husband told heavily upon her and on Monday at noon she breathed her last.

One of these brave men visited our bandronm, his name was James German, 2. Drum-Major in the army; he proved to be a great help to the band. He was the best drummer we had ever seen and understood the proper step in marching. “ Now, gentle- men," said he, “ the evening is but young yet, should it be your pleasure to listen to an adventurous story of one of my dear companions, I am ready to oblige you." “_By all means, go on,” was the answer, and he thus began. “ Not far south of Calcutta near the Delta 01 the Ganges, a small party consisting of three, the mother and her “No loving children. They had left the canton- ment late in the afternoon to take a bo- tanical ramble in the direction ofa small cooling stream whose banks were cover- ed with fragrant flowers of every des- cription of colour and shade, and the ‘ umbrageous trees so Cool and refreshing i are very plentiful on the banks of this l little sacred stream at the foot of one of these trees the little party had taken up its szition, and in a little while the children were lively in picking up the most gorgeous flowers they could get their hands on. On the other side. of the stream as far as the eye could reach was nothing, but a sandy desert except here and there a patch of tawny colored shrubs, which seemed to be moreluxur- iant near the banks of the little stream. Now it happened that Capt. James Hall- port came up tothe little party and after paying respect due their dignity he politely withdrew. He had not gone very far before he began to think that the little party were not in very safe quarters, because he had just heard the distant sound of the wild peacock, a sure sign of an approaching enemy. The Captain had with him a gun of the most improved pattern, and in a very ‘ short time had it ready for the reception of an e emy. Now, about two hundred yards down the stream a large tree had fallen across the stream, which was a ‘good substitute for a bridge, the bark was cut away from the under side of this With periodical floods and the bark of the upper side was quite loose, but yet It was resting on its parentstem ; he now took the bridge and was soon on the other side of the stream. The Cap- tain male his way up the bank ol the stream, and came in sight of the little party who had seen sonwthing that caused them no little surprise and the object of it, we are not very far from w here the Laptai n was stand ing and now he was in full view ofchngalTigerand now it was in the mind of the Captain to break all previous records oftime, in the direction of the bridges. He got there but not a moment too soon. He had only got himself under the end of the bridge, and his gun in hand, when the tiger was on the bridge above his head and refused to go on, when the Captain fired a shot, but it did not take effect. The tiger now was making ready for battle, but the Captain. who sudden- ly seizing the. tiger by the tail, andwith the help the bark gave by turning itself round, the monster was emptied into the stream; the Captain still kept a firm grip on the spinal pendage of his enemy, which, in a few minutes, croaked his last near the shore.
