The outbreak of African war and Canada's participa- tion therein, two general elections in the dominion, the death of Queen Victoria and accession and coroma- tion of King Edward VII, the visit to Canada of the Duke and Duchess of Cornwall and York (the present King and Queen), the choice of Mr. Borden as lcader of the éofiservative party, the inception of thé National Transcontinental railway, the Alas: kan boundary case, and the Dundon- ald incident, all occurred during the six years 1898 to 1904, and maké one of the most spectacular periods of recent Canadian history. It was on, November '13, 1898, that the Earl of Minto arrived at Quebec, and was sworn in as govern- or-general, succeeding the Earl of Aberdeen. He arrived in Canada but a few months before one of the great events in Canadian history--snamely, the decision of the dominion®to take 3h ative part in the Boer war. ile there was nosdoubt that as a Whole Canadians sympathized with the mother land in her struggle, there was some unrest and eriticism Which' made its appearance at the Start. At first there appeared a dis- position on the part of the govern- ment to be backward, but public opinion eventually forced action and the first Canadian contingent sailed from Canada on October 30, 1890. This, with the succeeding Canadian contingents that went to South Af- rica, made a total ®f 9,200 officers and men from the dominion who served the empire, not a very heavy contingent so far as numbers went, but in suceeeding influence one of the great movements in Canadian an- nals, The year 1900, the second of Lord Minto's term, saw a general election, which returned the liberal party with a majority of 73 in the house of commons. The death of Queeh Victoria on January 22, 1901, cast a pall of mourning over Ottawa, and the address to the crown which was passed by the Canadian parliament, expressed the sorrow that was felt at the loss of the empire's gréat sov- ereign. The same year was marked by the visit of the Duke and Duchess of Cornwall and York, who came to Canada on their way home from Aus- tralia, where they had been taking part in the opening of the first par- lidment of the new commonwealth. To Lord and Lady Minto fell the duty and honor of welcoming to Cad= ada the future sovereigns of the em- pire. Their visit to Canada was marked by a hearty greeting from the Canadian people that did much {to make more real the attachment towards the British erown. Borden Succeeds Tupper The close of the year 1900 had been marked by the retirement of Sir Charles Tupper from the leaders ship of the conservative opposition in the house of commons and on Feb: ruary 6, 1901, his successor was chosen in R. L. Borden, now pre- mier of Canada. The coronation of King Edward, the meeting of the im- perial conference in London, and the introduction of the bill for the N.T.R.'s comstruction were events that transpired in 1903. The settle: ment of the Alaska boundary also came-in this year. The following year saw another general election; which resulted in a victory for the liberal party, It was also marked by the famous Dundonald incident, re- sulting in the dismissal of this of- ficer, though his retirement from Canada was in many ways a triumph. The year 1904 closed the term of office of the Earl of Minto as govern or-general.. His term has been long: I ------ Pages 6 and 7 Are of ..

He was, if anyth om conservative in his attitude than Lord Aberdeen had been, and much more so than Lord Grey who suc- ceeded him. ; One thing that made Lord Minto's career particularly successful was the whe r way in which he entered into everything - pertaining to Canadian life and Canadian activi: ties." He was fond of the outdoor life and thordtighly enjoyed the typi: cal Canadian sports.

When informed of Lord Minto's death, Premier Borden said: .*The news of Lord Minto's death will be teceived with profound regret by his friends'in "Canada, He served the empire faithfully' and 'well, both as a soldier and diplomat. As govern- or-general of Canada and as viceroy of India he filled high and sometimes dificult positions with ability, firm- ness and discretion. His association: with this dominion, both in edrly and later life, won tor him a well-deserv- ed place in the affections and respect of the Canadian' people, whose deep- est aympathy will be 'extended to Lady Minto and her family." HEROES OF QUEBEC AND GIBRALTAR BADLY TREATED General Wolfe's Mother Was Refus- ed a Pension--Whittaker's Neglected Tomb "We are mighty proud to-day of possessing Quebec and Gibraltar-- those famous rocks of thé néw and old worlds. And yet facts have Just been published which show how shabbily we treated the men to whom we owe their session," says Lon- don Public Opinton. Mr. Beckles Willson, fhe well- known biographer of General Wolfe, has sent the London Times four hith. erto unpublished letters relating the recovery of arrears 'of Wolfe's pay. It will be remembered that before Wolfe's death at Quebec he had made 'a will disposing of a larger amount of property than he was found possessed of, - His mother was anxious to pay the legacies intend- ed by her son, and applied to the government both for a pension and for the pay due to him as conimand- er-in-chief, Mr. Pitt, not greatly to his credit, does not appear to have insisted on the small return of a pension asked by the mother for her son's glorious victory. The pay as commander-in-chief was also dis- puted. The letters sent by Mr. Willson re- fer to this question. They are dated 1782 and 1763, and are from Thomas Fisher, George Warde (of Squerries, Westerham), and Lord Shelburne. Wolfe, according to Lord Barring- ton, had declared on taking up the command that he would be satisfied with the pay of a major-general, without thé further emoluments of commander-in-chief, and on this al- leged renunciation Barrington refus- ed to countenance the payment. The new secretary of war, however, Townshend, was more friendly, and the King was also well disposed and agreed to the payment, If he could obtain an explanation from Mr. Pitt, then. in retirement, of the "reasons for giving" the commission of commander-inchief to Wolfe! Pitt no doubt gave his excellent rea- sons, but the matter was still in sus- pense in 1763, when two more let- ters, one from Shelburne, show that the government offices concerned were still preventing the warrant from being made out for the King to sign. "The correspondence is humiliat- ing to read," says the Times. 'Wolfe had paid with his Hfe for Quebec; the King and the treasury officials three years later still wanted to know wliy he had been made commander- in-chief. It séeins' to hive oceurred to nobody that, even if he had waiv- ed the pay in his lifetime, the mother of such a son might well have been paid it ten times over if she needed it. Forty years later the officials had learned nothing. Nelson's wishes were treated in the same way." On the day theso letters were pub- lished the Daily Telegraph said: "The tomb of Admiral Whittaker, who valiantly led the attack which won Gibraltar for England, has been discovered in Carshalton churchyard. Some ten years ago an aged grave- digger recalled that in his boyhood he bad heard that the admiral's grave was in the churchyard, but for, fifty years he has lain in a nameless grave. "While church extensions were being undertaken recently some . graves were removed. The oppor- ELEVATOR COM PANY Lmiveo 80 BAY ST.

This idea was curried out very attractively in a navy blue suit; the frills were of chiffon in a slightly lighter shade of blue, edged with a narrow line of dull gold. It was most pleasing in effect. Another idea which bas "caught on" is the blouse or coat of a rather vivid color worn with a dark velours skirt. Number 8121 is an attractive example of this. The blouse is of Chartreuse erépe de Chine worn with a skirt of duvetyn tn a dark harmonizing green. To copy this design in size 36 it requires fof the blouse (8121) 215 yards of 3¢ inch material; for 'the skirt (7068) 4 yards of 36-inch material. In number 8155 the touch of bright color so necessary for these dull days is brought out in the border on the mate- rial. The costume shows a smart little bolero, a graceful skirt and a.chic little frilled guimpe. The materiat in which this costume is developed is a bordered erépe with the border showing a Chinese design. This Chinese influence promises to be very strong for the coming seasosm, This costume may be made in size 36 with 45; yards of 36-inch material. Number 8121--sizes 52 to 42. Number 7968 --sizes 22 to 20. Number 8155--sizes 34 to 44. Each pattern 15 cents. FROM THE COUNTRYSIDE Bath Road Budget Bath Road, Feb. 25.-C.
