JAMES BARRY DISCLOSED IN BOOK Woman Who Lived Life of Man Had Remarkable Career London.--The secret story of Dr. James Barry is imaginative- ly disclosed in a hook by Olga Facster and Jessica Groves: Dr. James Barry was born in 1795 and died in 1865, having risen to the rank of Inspector- General of the Army Medical De- partment. When the doctor's death took place, in Londen, it was officially reported that the hody was that of a woman. Throughout a long and distip- gwpished medical career, a great part of which was passed in the Colonies, she had kept up this deception. She had been a medi- cal student in hard-drinking Kdinburgh, had shared cabins with men in sailing ships, bad | fought at least one duel. She known to have assisted into the world, according to the author's statement, by means of a Cae- sarian operation, a boy who was given her name, James Munnik; and that boy's grandson is James Barry Hertzog, Prime Minister of South Afriéa. But these and a few other compara- tively small incidents are = all that is definitely known about * her. The version given by writers is that Dr. Barry was a married woman, wife of a man of importance but a brute, and that Lord Charles Somerset (Govern- or at the Cape) the only person in the world who knew her se- cret, was her patron and backer. It was he who obtained for her the appointment of Army Sur- geon at the Cape and supported her in her attempts to reform medical administration there. All the young women, from the Gov- ernor's daughters downwards, these fell in love with the dapper little | doctor, who had a reputation as a breaker of hearts. QUEBEC FAMILIES vantage of Settlement Scheme of Province Montreal.--A typical "belle famille Canadienne among ga group of wives and children who left here for Temiskaming to join their husbands who had preceded them one month before was that of Mme, Dauphinat and her six children whose ages range from three to 10 years. Mme. Dauphi- nat is an organist and her two elder children can play the pia- no, but they will have to content themselves with a harmonium at Solitary River where they are to Barry | | make their future home in one ! of the little cabins which the pro- | vincial government has provided for each family under the settle- ment scheme, Madame Dauphi- nat said she was looking forward to playing the harmonium at mass on Sundays, for true to the tradition of the country the church accompanied its people to this new settlement. L'Abbe Georges Bilodeau, a missionary, who has gone out with countless pioneer bands, was on the train armed with big bags of apples and Klondyke kisses for the chil- dren. The largest family to make the journey, however, was that of Marcelin Essiambre, consisting of Mme. Essiambre and nine chijl- dren, the oldest of whom was a little girl of 13.

Dr. Rand lived and . worked among the Indians for more than 40 years, learning- their langu- ages and their legends, translat- ing from Micmac to English and, that the Indians themselves might benefit, from English to Micmac, He turned almost the entire Bible into Micmac, prepar- ed dictionaries of the principal Indian dialects, and saved from oblivion the rich material of In- dian folk-lore and legend. He was a linguist of unusual ability and, at one time, could speak and write a dozen differ- ent' languages. He knew Latin, Greek and Hebrew in addition to modern languages, but his favorite language was Micmac. Dr. Rand died in Hantsport, {| Nova Scotia, in 1889, Eighth of a family of 22 chil- dren, he was born at Cornwallis, six miles from Kentville, on May 18, 1810. His road to education was a rough one, and his early life is best described in the in- troduction tn his "Legends of the Micmacs®: "I was educated in the great- est university of all time, ancient or modern,--a building as large as all out-doors, that had the | broad of heaven for a roof. My father taught me to read---and he taught me more | thoroughly to work on the farm when I was a small boy. My father and my grandfather be- fore me had been bhricklayers; and when 1 was 18 years of age, i I commenced a séven years' ap- prenticeship to that honorable land musele-developing profes- sion. When I wag a small boy, I ! went to school, such as schools were then, for a few weeks to Sarah Beckwith, Sarah Pierce, and Wealthy Tupper, respéctive- | 1y. None of them amounted to | much ss teachers, and Wealthy | Tuper could not write her own name, hut there was one thing she could do,--she could and did | teach us the way to Heaven. Dur- | ing the evenings of three winters [ went to school taught by a man, and 'graduated' when 11 years of age. Seven years later I de- termined to study and master the science of arithmetic. This I did with the aid of a book. "I took my first lesson in Eng- lish grammar when 23 years of age from an old. stager named Bennett. [ paid him $3. for the | lesson, and after learning it, started and taught a couple of classes of my own at $2, per pu- pil. Next, I studied Latin gram- mar four weeks at Horton Aca- idemy , ... Then, in the spring {of 1832, I returned to the work {of a stonemason and the study of Latin. There was then no 'ten- hour' system' in existence. It was manual labor from sunrise to sundown. But I took a lesson in Latin before going to work, studied it while at work, took an- other lesson at dinner, and an- ! other at night . In 1834 1 was ordained a Baptist minisier hy Father Manning, and took | charge of the church at Parrs- boro, where 1 preached and con- tinned the study of Latin, as well as of Greek and Hebrew. In 1836 T went back to Horton Academy for a few months; and from that time the study of lan- guages hecame a passion. "After leaving Parrsboro Y was pastor of the Baptist churches at Horton, Liverpool, Windsor and Charlottetown, re- spectively, until 1846, when I dedicated my life to missionary work among the semi-savage In- dians of Nova Seotia---1 resign- ed the pastorate of my church --that comparatively easy. way of earning a livelihood,--gave up all the comforts, conveniences. prospects and social happiness of a pastor, and devoted a large { portion of my life to association | with savages, having such com- | forts as were to he derived from association with them, and l «pending portions of a lifetime in | vigwans, and in the woods."

She said she was inthe kitchen when the men arrived and saw them served with beer by her son, she herself haying no part in the proceeding. She saw ino money change hands she said.
