A novelty in church fairs is presented by the ladies of the Hanson place Methodist chureh in Brooklyn. Departing from the well-worn fashion of imitating the Japanese and Chinese, they engaged in a ‘‘Hindoo Coffee Party.” To this end, twenty beauti- ful young ladies arrayed themselves in Hin- doo garb, the material of their dresses being largely of cheese cloth. The trimmings of these dresses were in scarlet, blue and gold and the turbans were a combination of the graceful and the gorgeous. The rooms were elaborately decked with Oriental symbols, screens, banners and lanterns.

In the Ottawa Gitizen of the 2lst of August Mr, E. Stone Wiggins predicted atorms on July 18th, August 16th, Septem- ber 15th, October 15th, November 13th, and December 13th. The weather reports show that there was a strong wind on the 18th July, a severe storm on the 14th of September, and the first snowfall in Ottawa on the 14th November; while yesterday's storm fulfilled the last prediction to the letter. Mr. Wiggins has received a letter from the Lords Commissioners of the Ad- wmiralty acknowledging the receipt of his letter warning their lordships of the great storm which he declares will occur on the 9th of March.

A writer in the Chignecto Pest gives quite a sensational acceunt of a recent oc- currence near Richibucto village, Kent. Some twelve years ago one wintry day a veiled lady unknown at Richibucto made her appearance at the leading hotel in the village. After making minute enquiries she took her journey to the farm house of a childless couple. She appeared at the hotel a few days after veiled as before and went away. The hitherto childless home

presence of an infant. Year by year after- ward came remittances to the foster parents. Recently, however, a lady and gentleman with a stylish team appeared on the scene and carried off the child. The farmer never knew the parentage of the waif.

The question of ceding Massouah to the King of Abyssinia is more complicated than might appear at first sight. As Turkey claims suzerainty over the dominions of the Khedive and the latter is bound by the fir- man of 1879 not to alienate either any part of his territories or of the rights which he enjoys without the Sultan’s consent, Turkey would undoubtedly object to Massouah being handed over to a foreign prince in the manner proposed. If the Sultan’s con- sent were obtained, it would be on the con- dition that he would have the profit or a large share of it that Egypt would derive from the bargain. He would also expect his suzerainty to accompany the ceded dis- trict, so that the King of Abyssinia would then be his tributary. Under there cir- cumstances, with such conflicting claims, even acompromise can hardly be satisfactory as there would always be something left unsettled. Of ccurse, a decision might be arrived at as France disposed of Turkey’s claims over the Regency but Mr. Gladstone could hardly approve of that,

A meeting of the organizing committee of the Irish National League was held on the 15th inst. Mr. Parnell presided. The receipts thus far have amounted to £826, and 250 branches have been formed. The proposal to merge the Home Rule Associa- tion with its fund of £700 in the National League was accepted. It was resolved to form a central branch, of which the officers of local branches will be ex-officio members. Mr. Parnell proposed resolutions, which were adopted, condemning the decision of
