The rst shot only roused the mon- ster-'s anger. It ran for a considerable distance, and then stopped, occasion- ally rolling over and over. It pursued these tactics until the gunner red once more. Uually the second shot accomplishes its deadly work, but in this case the explosion of the bomb did not kill outright, and there was an ex- citing truggle for a time, which end- ed with the lance having to be freely used. The injured whale worked his ippers viciously, and `slashed the wat- ers into foam, the blood in the mean- -time flowing profusely from the great gaping wounds in his back, but he fought ferociously to. the end, time and time again charging forthe steam- er, but always `meetings, counter-move" that frustrated his intent. Duringthls time the steamer had to be` carefully , handled and kept out of way, for one blow from the whale would have ren- der,-al serious damage. The whale was badly injured, and the-. Orion`: (navigator, knowing full- well the strength qt his game, waited until. that strength ebbed before adding the nu- ishing, touches.

C.. de- spatch. To landsmen thereis great ex-` citement `connected with everrwhale hunt, but at times the work ct killing is done so expeditiously and swiftly that only in the size or the animal cap- tured is there any special interest mani- fested. But in the case of the steam whaler Orion, now operating out of this port. where the onslaught on whales is _almost continuous, there are always instances where the judgment of those engaged in the pursuit is put to a se- vere test. An experience of the kind `was successfully pased through a few days ago of! the west coast" of Van- couver Island. IIII..- l\__l__ - V - ` -vvuvovcn Va. LBUIQAV QOIJVI cuavuwn The contents of this volume are too varied to be enumerated, but it may be said that much of it is of exceptional interest. A document oi. particular .in- .terest is the letter of Father Ignace in reference to the condition of the R0- man Catholic population of ` Acadia, and the menace which a neighboring. settlement of English hereticsat Grand Bay oifers to the people of the true faith. If it were a. settlement of wolves or troglodytes the good man could not be in greater trepidation. A summary of the documents made in Paris by the late Mr. Edouard Richard. chiey orders. of the French King and de- spatches,- may wellbe called instruc- tive, for even in those laconic sum- maries the reason of the failure of French colonization is easily gleaned. In one order the inhabitants are for- bidden to plant vines, hemp, "or ax, and similar vexatious. regulations of ` the sumptuary or foolishly restrictive kind are as common as leaves in Val- lambrosa. - _ _ ' s -av`-rut: vqnnvlllu vb` AIILIQAIQAG Gala L` Ih1ll\{l_lIahJI It is interesting to note-that as earl as 1731 the Intendant Hocquart took steps to collect and preserve the `re- cords of the colony up to that time. and Lord Dorchester took similar action in 1787. The collections made at those times are now `under the care. of Mr. Doughty.. It is not creditable to `us that no other efforts were made to fur- ther this important work for almost `a hundred years after Lord Dorchester s "time. Indeed, it is said on the best authority that cartloads of public docu- ments have been taken out of the cel- lars of the departmental buildings at Ottawa to be driven to the ash-heap, and this, too, when it was known that Dr. Brymner, the Archivist, would have gladly given the ~ papers shelter at least. The names of those who were guilty of this vandalism should be pre- served in the Archives for the repro-` bation of future generations. a VB}... nn. .L....L.. -1 4.1.1.. _--1-_..-- -`___ L-_ .:Mi-.

It will be remembered that hitherto. the public papers`which. could be re- garded as of historic value had. been scattered among the various. depart- ments". Not a great deal of `care was taken of `them. When they became in- conveniently bulky for the pigeon- holes of the departments they were car- together in admired confusion. This state of affairs was pointed out in the report of a commission appointed in 1897, says The Globe. This commis- ney, J. L. McDougail, and Joseph Pope, recommended that the Dominion Arch- ivist _be made the custodian of what might be regarded" as historic docu- ments. An order in Council was pass- mission. By this order the Archivist has become the custodian .of historic documents. from the departments of the Secretary of State, the Privy Coun- tia Department, Department of Rail- ways and Canals, Department ot`Jus- tice, Indian Commissioners, and the Department or Marine and Fisheries. `L 1..
