CANADIAN. The Grand Lodge of the Knights of Pyt ias has decided to meet next year at Port Arthur. W.B. Nason, 21 years of age, was drown- ed while bathing Sunday morning in the lake outside Toronto Island. The will of the late Mr. George Shar contractor, of Hamilton, has been entered for probate, the estate being valued at $91,- 000 The Protestant Ministerial Association. Montreal has decided to hold a series prayer meetings during the month of Sep- tember. The recently destroyed buildings of the Ville Marie convent, Montreal, are to be re- stored, and the work of rebuilding will probably be commenced shortly. The rate of taxation for the city of Lon- don, Ont., has been fixed at 19 mills on the dollar. The total assessment has been plac- ed at close upon 15 million dollars. Mr. E. S. Clouston, general manager of the Bank of Montreal, has declined to accept the presidency of the Dominion Bankers’ Association, to which he was elected. The Montreal Witness suggests that public testimonial should be presented to Sir \Villiam Dawson in recognition of h distinguished services in cannection with McGill University. The Government cattle inspectors at Mon t- real have received a communication from the Department of Marine and Fisheries, informing them that the cattle dues are in- creased from two to three cents per head. Commandant Booth, of the Salvatio Army, in the course of a lecture which he gave in Winnipeg on Monday night, stated that his father was maturing a scheme for carrying on a war against the liquor traffic all over the world. A petition signed by Prof. Goldwin Smith, Mr. George Gooderham, Archbishop Walsh, and 5,300 others, was presented to the Toronto City Council the other nigh in favour of submitting to the popular vote the qpestion of running Sunday street cars. The Council refused to give a by-law for the purposeits first reading. Mr. Beaubien, Quebec Commissioner of Agriculture, has received a letter from the Under-Secretary of Agriculture of Queens- land stating that he has forwarded four cases of oranges, one case of pine apples, and five cases of arrowroot for the purpose 0 seeing if a trade in such commodities could be established with Canada, now that there is a fast service between the two countries. BRITISH. Lord Wolverton is one of the thirty or forty peers who are Gladstonian, and his resignation of the post of Lord in Waiting is regarded as significant. Cattle men in Glasgow and Liverpool now say that they have no hope of the removal of the restrictions regarding the importation of Canadian cattle this season. Several Anti-Parnellite members of the House of Commonh have received complaints from their constituents for not opposing the Government concessions to thew Unionists in the debate on the Home Rule bill. Mr. John Morrough, anti-Parnellite mem- ber for South-East Cork county, has decid- ed to retire from Parliament owing to the attitude of Mr. Sexton and the Freeman’s Journal toward the Parnellite faction. The Pall Mall Gazette says it is the in- tention of the Government to abandon the financial clauses of the Home Rule bill and substitute new clauses empowering the Irish Legislature to frame its own budget to the amount of five million pounds. Mr. Renton, the Secretary of the Grand Trunk railway in London, says the share- holders are not likely to object to Messrs. Gould, McIntyre, and others buying a con- trolling interest in Grand Trunk stock, but he knows nothing personally as to the truth of the rumours. It is reported that the English Govern- ment has sent telegrams to the Sultan of Turkey and to the Turkish Grand Vizier imploring that clemency be shown to the 17 Armenians who were a few days ago sen- tenced to death for their share in the sedi- tious rioting at Cesarea. A special cable depatch says in England a hundred days of drought has wrought havoc with all the crops except wheat, which is not now largely grown. The hay crop is absolutely ruined. The vegetable and fruit crops. are the worst known in many years, and over wide areas potatoes and peas will barely pay the cost of harvest- ing them. UNITED STATES. Owing to the threatening conduct of the lumber shovers, who are on strike at Tona- wanda, the town has been placed under martial law. Ironwood, a village in Michigan, is suff- ering from an epidemic of typhoid fever. Thereare from 30 to .50 new cases daily, and from 50 to 60 deaths in the week. About two thousand persons left New York on Saturday’s steamers for Europe. The expected inward rush on account of the World’s Fair has not yet manifested itself. Complete official returns of the Chinese registration under the Geary Act have been received in \Vashington,and they show that out of 110,000 Chinese in the United States 13, 179 have registered. A young Englishman was before the Essex Market Police Court, New York, on Saturday morning for being drunk. He gave the name of Charles E. Gladstone, and claimed to be a second cousin of the Grand Old Man. ‘ Chas. H. Berry, a well-known real estate agent, of Springfield, Ohio, says that he ‘ had in his employ recently a man who con- fessed to having murdered Mr. and Mrs. Borden. He said he was a sailor, and that he committed the murders for revenge. The jury in the Fall River murder case after a brief deliberation brought in a ~ver-. dict declaring Lizzie Borden not guilty of l the murder of her father and step-mother. The verdict was received with great satis- faction by the audience that filled the court- room. A man named Edward Thomas, of Char- lotto, 8.0., has been arrested for torturing ~ his dying wife, He placed red hot coals on her arms that she might, he said, have a practical illwtratioia of the tortures of the The towu of Utzermatlan, in Mexico, wa h recently visited by a waterspout, which re of property. start for Canada and the United States. p, from Moscow, the recent robbers of the val monastery were the monks themselves. of The Pope on lVednesday gave a long an of cilation with the church. and prices are rapidly rising. a is by war. in Paris on Sunday, called upon all Conser. votive factions to unite in the general elec- tion in support of a programme of public honesty, social defence, and religious liberty. By order of the Court of Cassation, on appeal, Charles de Lcsseps and the other prisoners convicted of fraud in connection with the Panama Canal Company have been released. The court held that the Statute of Limitations covered the offences charged, and that the indictment was irregular. The trial of the Armenians accused of bein concerned in the rioting at ‘Ceserea and . arsovan last spring has just- been con; cluded. Seventeen of the prisoners were condemned to death, and thirty-nine were sentenced to terms of imprisonment ranging from ten to fifteen years. The German Government has a. good pros- pect now of asmall majority in favour of the Army bill. A special cablegram says this is due to the fact that while the populous districts have by overwhelm- ing majorities elected candidates opposed to the bill, the smaller constituencies have inmany instances by small majorities rc- turned candidates favouring the bill. ANTIQUITY 0F BELL FOUX'BEN'G. n t f The Art Known to the Saxons Many Years Before the Norman Conquest. The art of bell founding is undoubtedly of great antiquity. The Saxons are known to have used bells in their churches, al- though probably but small ones, for the Venerable Bede, writing at the end of the seventh century, alludes to them in terms which seem to show that they were not un- familiar things. The towers of the Saxon period have belfries of considerable dimen- sions in most cases, and, according to the Gentleman’s Magazine, at Crowland abbey, in South Lincolnshire, there was a famous peal of seven bells many years before the Norman conquest. The monks at that time and for some time after were the chief practic- tioners of the art of bell foundingâ€"which indeed is one of the many things those well abused men have handed down to us. Their bells were rarely without inscriptions, often in very bad Latin, containing perhaps some obscure joke, the point of which is now lost. More often they were of a religious nature, sometimes probably not unmixed with a dash of superstition, as when the bell de- clares that its sound drives away the dem- ons of the air who caused pestilence and famine, lightning and thunderstorms. As a rule, unfortunately, they put no dates on their bells, a defect which has been. in some measure overcome by the researches of many enthusiastic campanologists, but which is likely to keep the early history of bells shrouded in darkness for a long time to come. â€"â€"-.â€"___ To Dlscourngc Treating It is a common saying among the devotees of the flowing bowl that it is not regular drinking, but “drinking between drinks” makes inebriates ; and for this peculiar form of indulgence the treating custom is mainly, if not alone, responsible. The man who drinks because he wants it is in a bad way; but he is by no means in as bad a way as the man who drinks when he does not want itâ€" who drinks, that is, because he is asked or because he feels as a matter of cour- tesy that he must ask somebody else. That is what treating is. A genial good fellow, who does not care a copper for a drink and is not even thirsty, meets another genial good fellow of precisely the same caliber and as an evidence of good fellowship asks him to drink. It would be discourteous to refuseâ€"under the edicts of fashionâ€"and so both take what they do not want, and in many instances would rather go without. But it does not end even there. The treat- ed fecls it incumbent on him to return the courtesy extended, and the two again ‘ take something they do not want. By that time they have become exhilarated and begin to wantâ€"or to think they want-something to drink ; and the result very possibly is an ’ orgie. Yet either of the participants would admit, if his candid opinion were asked, that the custom is a senseless one, which has nothing but the fact of custom to excuse it. For this reason the movement against the custom inaugurated in New York by a well-known society leader is eminently hopeful, and we sincerelv trust sulted in loss of life and great destruction penetrated into the lands of the Klamath, able at all it cannot wisely, at this juncture, .. . - â€" d friction was the method employed embarrass the business men of the coun- Many well-to-do Germans. livmg in Rus- WOO , , , . . . . . . sia, desiring religious liberty, are about to by the NONI) Amer 19311 Indians.

Mr.Healyup to date is with Mr. Gladstone, but thrice have the whole National party and a large section of the Radicals voted against the government, which has only been saved by the patriotic policy of the Unionists, who have refused to snatch a victory with the aid of the Irish ates a great deal of heat, and finally the lit- caus.

The wood or coal must be brought into con- tact with the tinder and cautiously fanned into a blaze. Another form is called the “ pump or weighted drill,” and this apparatus is used “in only two localities in the world” for making firesâ€"viz., among the Chukchis, of Siberia, and the Iroquois Indians of New York and Canada. The apparatus is very ingeniously constructed. It consists of a piece of soft or loose-grained wood, as in the first case, and the “ pump” or spindle. The spindle is made of well-seasoned elm or other hard wood. It is usually about two feet long and has a kind of fly wheel about three inches from the bottom. A crosspiece of wood with a hole in the center large enough for the spindle to pass through easily is then adjusted as the “pump” han- dle. Attached to each end of the handle are cords, which are fastened to the top of the spindle and twisted around it in such a manner that moving the handle up and down will cause it to revolve rapidly in al- ternate directions,thus creating a maximum amount of friction at the point of contact with the loose-grained Wood. This was the kind of apparatus used by the Iroquois Indians at the white dog feast of 1888. The natives of the East Indies and of Aus- tralia use another method for obtaining ignition by means of wood friction. Their method is by “ sawing.” A V-shaped notch is first cut lengthwise in a piece of ’ bambooâ€"almost penetrating it.

We are not sure, however, that it is wise to change the public estimate of solitary drinking. It is a good thing, on the whole, to discourage it, as it is to discourage drink- ing in any form.
