There will not be a conservative con- vention in Ottawa in June. That ig certain. It could have been held some time ago with some degree of success, hut not now. The party ie divided on the naval question. Or rather in de- ferring to the ' dirturbing element in the party, the element that must dic- tate apd will not follow, Mr. Borden opened the way to a revolt. Once he wohbled himself--once he departed from the position the party had taken a year ago--he advertised | his weakness, and the rest followed as a uatural consequence. The only at .

On mat- ters of defence, Canada, like the mother country, should be of 'one mind and policy. Mr. Borden probably sees this now, but he sees it too late.

It will attract attention. It will command approval. Anything, no matter how radical, in order to escape the scan- dals that betoken a degradation of public spirit and abandonment of principle that would be shocking to the founders of the constitution. THE CIVIC CONFUSION. The resignation of Ald. Craig from the council, especially from its wa: ter committee, is very much regretted. Here is 8 man who has served the city faithfully and well, who has carried into the affairs of the people his business principles and his con- science, and finds that his advice upon a matter on which he is well posted is ignored. Surely tifs is an aggra- {vation which is enough to move any ordinary man to action, and the | tirement of Ald, Craig, in conscguerde, is not really surprising. The Whig has steadily contended against any 'misuse of the public utiki- ties and of their funds. The people have a right to the best and cheapest ser- vice which they can afford, but' the plants must not, gn the public interest, be robbed of that portion - of the enue which should be devoted to effic'eacy of these plants, The law, which has been quoted, never contemplated the diversion of funds, collected for a special purpose, to the general vic use, 'and, the imprudence of this proceeding is the more ap- parent when there are parts of the city now which are without a water supply and cannot get it unless a few property owners pay in rates a som sufficient to yield a certain from the investment. When the Whig advocated the ¢s- tabdshment of a depreciation fund in connection with the water depart- re- income til it is no longer a question, "What | ROCK PINNACLE IN#TRAITS OF . SAN UAN DE FUCU.

"I have watched the accounts of the loss of the 'steamers missing after their departure from these shores carefully," says a marine authority, "and am comvinced that the most probable cause of the repeated disas- ters is a pinnacle of rock. Somewhere north-west of Duentze Head there is probably such a pinnacle, and the loss of the Condor and of the steam- ers Matteawan, Montserrat, Keewatin and others that have disappeared, showing' but seant wreckage, found long after to indicate their fate, has | in all probability been due to their colliding with this pinnacle.

The following information concerning the establishment of a factory in Lon don for the manufacture. of radium, according to a secret process discov- ered by Sir William Ramsey, is re ported. It is claimed that by 'this process the production of radium will be re duced from nine months to six or seven wegks, and the British Radium Corporation has been formed for tak- ing over the radium rights of the Trentwith mine at St. Ives, where the discovery of pitchblende ore was made (previously referred to in geon- sular . and trade reports.) The ser- vices of Sir William Ramsay have been retained by the ¢orporation. The total quantity of radium which has thus far been recovered for scien: gotten craft Yie probably heaped to- | gether in this graveyard of ships, and | if a wrecking vessel went to investi- | gate the result ought to be of large advantage to the wreckers. If they! located the wrecks they would recov- | er chain and other materials which would handsomely reward them." The people of Ucluelet are excited over the reports of the steamer Orion, | concerning the obstruction she en-| countered. There is, however, nothing! beyond the fouling of the whaler cable and that the cut end came up| covered with paint to base the loca- | tion of a wreck upon.

A few tattered and broken hulls still perched along the beach re- mam as monuments. Some vears ago Capt. T. P. H, Whitelaw, the veteran wrecker, combed this graveyard su- perficially and brought up. anchor chains and other finds that told of wrecks bemeath the waters.

A little . while ago the pitchblende containing this wonderful element was actually regarded as a nuisance by the old miners of St. Ives; so that it was cast aside on the rubbish heap which grew to mountainous propor: ions, and from which to-day the com- pany is obtaining tons of material. Chinese Names of Places. New York Tribune. Chinese names of places often define their character. Thus the terminal 'vang"' means fortress; Pingyvang the "Cheng" means a walled city, as Fenghuangelen the "Phenix walled city." "Shan" is a mountain, "hai" the sea "kuan'" a camp; thus Shankaikuan is the "moun fain sea camp." A "ling" is a moun- tain pass; Motiening, near Mukden, is the 'heaven scraping pase." The suffixes "tat" and "to" indicate islands;' "po" or "pho," a harbor; "wan," a bay; "kiang" and "ho" a river; "kow," a port; "fu," a first class city; "ju," a provincial capital. "Pel" is north, "nan" is south, "'king"' is capital. These suffixes help to ex- plain such familiar names in these days as Sanshantao, Chemulpo, Tali- enwan, Yangtsekiang, Hoangho, Yin- fou, Chefu, Anju, Peking and Nan ing. Tarine moth bags, all sizes.
