Judge Winchester, replying to the grand jury which, at the 'sessions, denounced the race-track gambling and demanded. its suppression if possible, called atten- tion to the fact that the case rested with the city council, The city of Sheffield, England, has passed a by-law prohibiting race-track betting, and the by-law, after being tested in all the courts, was upheld. "1 would, therefore, advise," said his honor, "'our city council, if they have not already the power to pass such a by-law, that they should go to the Ontario legislature and secure such power." : Judge Winchester added that some people wondered why the police com- \LLE] ] missioners did not do something to end the scandals of the race track, and CREAM ATARTARA CHEMICALLY PURE Canadian (Government tests show we have the purest, and highest strength goods.

FR SUGAR TRUST, SWINDLES, The sugar trust of the United States has caused it to be announced that it is not really to blame for the swindles by which it is believed to have profited to the extent of mil lions of dollars. "These swindles had to do with the weighing of the raw sugar which the trust imported, and bv the manipulation of secret springs in. the weighing machines. The re- presentaiaves of". the trust and the government officials « sat side by side at the machines that ranged at inter- vals along three docke in New York, and both tallied the output.

These lctiers show Carlyle and the woman who became his wife at their best, and develops in an en- trancing way the experience of these years when they were being drawn to- wards each other and by an affection which did not die. The cap sheaf in this personal his tory is published by R. 8. Craig, who, in "The Making of Carlyle," brings out some new facts, and facts that go to show that Mr. and Mrs. Carlyle had a happy life, Froude to the con- trary, that they were not for a time in affluent circumstances, but that they were comfortable, and that sweet contentment carried them along until the production of the French Revolu- tion and Sartor Resartus brought Carlyle fame and recogmition and all that they imply. These later works on Carlyle have attracted a wide at- tention, and mark the place which Carlyle has occupied in the thought and heart of literary men. The love letters of any persons. are interesting, but much more so the letters of two whose powcr of expression was so in- tense as in the case of the Carlyles. W. S. Lilly, in the Nineteenth Cen- tury, refers to them as "The End of a Legend," this legend being Froude's and to the extent of representing a union so peculiar, as being one of dissimilate spirits, with a varied and unhappy experience. If the end jof this has been reached the friends of Carlyle will be satisfied. et THE CITY AND THE CARS. The civic electric department the street railway were represented, yesterday, at a conference on the pow- er question. The discussion for a time was largely with reference to the sale of the road by the company to the city, and for over $100,000. The com- pany's idea is that the road should be publicly owned and ' operated, for the good of the city, even at a loss. The proposition is not practicable, and for the reason that the council canngt purchase the road and the people cannot be asked hurriedly to pass upon the subject. The question of power was later con- and very briefly. The com- pany has not beem making the cars pay--and cannot be expected to do so without a very material increase in the population--and it will only von- sont to continue the service for five years, with the guarantee of power at half the present rate, or 83 ¢ents per kilo-watt. The manager regently fig- ured the loss to the city under pres- ent circumstances at between $600 and $700 a year. The loss at half present rates would be twice this sum, or from $1,200 to $1,400. The committee could not Yace this problem without results . to the department's and sidered, serious finances. What the report will be to the coun- cil cannot be conjectured. The coun- cil, it is assumed, cannot pay or bonus 'the system without the people's con- sent. It can, if the company will ac- cept; continue the present rate for the summer, and refer the whole issue to the people at the January election. EDITORIAL NOTES.

GEORGE'S CATHE-| DRAL ON TUESDAY NIGHT. Pastoral Staff Presented to Bishop 'Mills and Patton Memorial Window Dedicated By Bishop-- "Fine Sermon Delivered By Dean Bidwell. | On Tuesday evening, the service known as "the synod service," even- song, was held in St. George's cathe dral, and it was quite largely attend- ed, both by . the delegates to synod and the members of the congregation. During the service, the was presented to Bishop Patton memorial window, in the apse, in memory of the late Archdeacon Patton, was dedicated by the bishop. The sermon was preached by Dean chapter 16, part of verse 33: "Be of good cheer, I, have overcome the world." Christ had been comforting his disciples, and the speaker pointed out that this was thé message his hearers should receive., This message had been given when at the threshold of 'what some men would term a gilure.

You should remember that it is for His cause we are working, and that it is His power which is behind us." No doubt the church had a difficult task before it. But it was what God had given us just at this time. There were things which confronted Chris tianity--increase of unbelief and party epirit. We had all this io face, we should faw it as did the disciples. "Let us, as far as we are concerned, in this diocese, put party spirit out of the work. Let us work as one man making no difficulty, because we are working for the one Master. It is wonderful the power which can = be produced when we are working in closiy harmony and in union.

He will ktrengthen us when we work." Evensong was sung by Canon Rob- orts, procentor of the synod, and les- sons were read by-the-archdeacons of Ontario and Kingston. The choir and clergy came in procession from St. George's hall, and passing along Johnson strect, came up the aisle, singing 'Onward Christian Soldiers."

The demand seems great- er than it really is on account of the comparatively small receipts of checse which have not yet reached the flush, and will not do so for another two or threo weeks. It is all for imme- diate shipment; and shows that there is still a shortage in the supply of checse in England, the quantity avail- able not being sufficient to meet the big increase in the demand for imme- diate consumption which comes on at this time every year. The country markets this week have strong with prices advanced over those paid last week. At Camp- bellford on Tuesday morning, the cheese were sold at llc, and at Stirling in the afternoon the prices were advanced to 1lfe. per lb. There is every indication of even higher prices being paid before the el of tho week, and these are likely to be the cheapest. cheese of the wi Just what prices will be paid it ie difficult at this time tosay; it will depend en- tively upon the limit the British deal- ers are prepared to go. It is to. be hoped that prices will mot be forced too high, as it would omnly have the effect of stopping the export demand, which has come on fairly well now, and in bringing about another react jon in the market and a setback in prices. The make is increasing rapidly, and according to the figures showing the reccipts into Montreal, as pablishec by the board of tradg, ihe output is about the same as last year's up tc dato.
