APRIL 14, THE SOUDAN EXPEDITION.

leasi as powerful as the present tuler of the Soudan. All sorts of terr ble forebod pgs of a Holy War are indulged in. But those who are at all familiar with the in ternal affairs of Islam are well aware that Mohammedans are split into factions which hate one another aimost as keenly

as they hate infidels. It is inconceivat le for stance, that any calamity bet alling the Sultan of Turkey, the head of the Sunnite sect, could induce the Shah of

The New York World printed the Col- umbian prize poem, written by Harriet Monroe, before it was read at Chicago, al though she had forbidden the editor to de so. She sued and recovered $5,000 dam- ages, a verdict which the upper courts have confirmed. Miss Mouroe’s poem certainly carries the record as ths costliest piete of verse extant: Milton, who sold Paradise Lost” for $25, must feel some- what mean about it now.

COUNTY INSTITUTIONS.

Tur Government yielded to the demand of some lawyers and set up a Registry

By so doing, they established the right of i King’s County toa similar inetitution at | Georgetown But they are not prepared | to extend this right, even though there is a safe in the Courthouse, as wellas rooms for the offices. If, as Mr. Bell says, the Registry Office at Summerside has proved to be a great boon to Prince County, the anfairness of the Government in withold- ing a Registry Office from King’s County is the more apparent.

cncnco- =e <em> eliiataeincena ces THE OLD LOG SCHOOLHOUSE,

The Superintendent of Education re peated his very interesting lecture in the basement of the First Methcdist Church last evening before a large audience, cluding His Honor the Lieutenant-Gover nor and his Private Secretary, Mr. Doran,

ln-

Lieut.-Colone! Moore, Juige Alley, Dr. Taylor, and many other promin nt citi zens. fhe Rev. Mr. Campbell ocenpied the chair. The lecturer soon made ev:

dent to all the truth of his saying thar an examination of the early records shuow- that the pioneers of P. E. I<land were net

neglectful ef education. He pictured the settlers meeting together and, with axes,

a saw and an auger, cu‘ting down the trees and joining the rough logs roughly to- gether for their first schoolhouse. The schoo|house was usually about 16 feet equare with a chimney in one end six feet wide, @ narrow door of slabs ow woeden hinges in the other, and a window of four panes of 8x10 floors on one side. The roof was made of slabs, or covered with birch or spruce bark, sometimes with sods, and in some ir- stances with seaweed; and the chinks in the legs were caulked with The school furniture was as primitive as the schcolhouse. The seate were made of thick planks or slabs, with four legs set into auger holes. Often the seat was too high for the little fellows, and they coulu amuse themaelvss by swinging their legs vigorously. There were no de ks, except

moss,

for the older pupils, who took lessons in writing. For those

a board was chosen, smooth and broad, stout peys of sutticient length were set in suger bo'es in the wall s0 a3 to slope downwards; on these supporte, at conven- ient height, was fastened the board, and when writing time came, like Hezekiah of old, the pupils turned their faces t» the wall. There were no blackboards, no wall map:, no teacher's desk. Ofsen only a block of wood for the teacher to sit upon. Tle teachers were supposed to be able to read," write and cipher.’ No particular standard of echolarship was needed. It is related that a house-bolder not far from Charlottetown brought a let- ter to the teacherto have it read. The latter after glancing over the epistle threw it into the fire. On being remonstrated with, the teacher replied in great earnest- ness, “If ] had not burnt it, everyore of you would be hanged”—the fact was that he could not read it. At that time, the birch rod, the broad ferule or the cat-o’-nine-tails supplied the need- ed incentive to study aod progress. But it must be borne ia mind that the rude mannere of the age co:n- pelled a master to resort to physical pun- ishment. A certain teacher, an able and rigid diaciplinarran, was surprised on the first day of his engagement at a certain schoo!, to see the biz boys march into the room with military precision, each beariag alofta stick of cordwood. On reaching the open space before the desk they faced the master in battle array, and then the

leader in stentorian tones called out, “shoulder arms.” Donrnie, nothing daunted, leaped from his seat, knockid

down the leader with his brawny fi-t,

and shouted in a voice of thunder “ground arms—I am captain here.” The effect, said Mr. McLeod, was magical. B -

fore the government education act of 1824, the country teachers were paid from 7s 6d. to 103. per quarter for each pupil. No wnoney was appropriated by the govern- ment for education, with the exception of £25 a@ year paid the master of the Norma! School in Charlottetown.

The lecture throughout was exceedingly interesting. At the close, short ad- dressea were delivered by Lieutenant- Governor Howlan, Judge Alley, and Wil- liam McPhail, Esq., sad a hearty vote of thauks was conveved to the lecturer.

Norway’s supply of cod liver oil is rap idly diminishing. Not only are less fish caught, but the livers of those taken are ot inferior quality. While in 1893 the yield of oil was 26,813 barrels in 1894 it was 18,500, and in 1895 12,680 barrels, with every prospect of smaller harveets in the future.

An Englishman, in Washington, at din- per, declined toeat au ice frozen in the shape and coloreof the American flig This he did because he held it to be bad form to absorb the national emblem, The incident was significant as showing the distinction and the difference between the British idea of patriotism and our own. Englishmen lift their hats when their flag is carried past, and rise when the national anthem is played in threatres and music halle. No true Briton in trade or out of it would use the flag of his country for ad- vertising purposes. ;

THE DAILY EXAMINER ° - . .

TUESDAY,

PROVINCIAL LEGISLATURE, |

Moypar, April 13.

House met at 3 o’clock.

Mr. Arthur Peters presented a petition from Mark Wright & Co., limited, asking ; for the passing of an Act to amend their, Act of Incorporation. The petition was received and read, and a bill in accerd ance therewith was referred tu the Private Bills Committee.

Nr. Shaw asked the C. P. W. to table a statement showing in detail how the expenditure of $4 532.14 as shown in the C. P. W. Rep rt, 1895, page 42, and charged to the steamer Hillsborough is made up, the names of the person or per-

sons to whom this amount was paid, and

the sum paid to each person, and the nat- ure of the work done by eaqh person re- spectively, the name or names of persons supplyicg material, the amount of mater- ial supplied, and the sum paid to each person or persone, respectively, for mater- ial supplied.

Hon. Mr. McLean promised the state- |

ment asked for s soon «s pos-ible.

Mr. Warburton presented the report of the *pecial committee having charge of the Electric Railway Billi, and the bill was set down for second reading to-mor rUw.

On motion of Hon. Mr. Peters, the House went into committee on the bill to amend the law relating to partition in :be Court of Chancery, with Mr. Robertson in the chair. The till was reported agreed to, and ordered to be read a third time to- morrow,

Oa mo'i-n of Mr. Warburton the bill incorporating the Crapaud Creamery was read a second time in committee, with Mr. H.C. Macdonald inthe chair. Re- ported agreed to and ordered to be read 8 third time to-morrow.

Mr. McKinnon moved the following re- solution :

Resolved, That inthe opinion of this House an oftice for the registry of deeds aad documents relating to the transfer of Jand should be established at Georgetown for King’s County.

Mr. McKinnon spoke briefly in support of the resolution, poioting out the advantages such an_ institution would be to the people of King’s County.

Mr. McWilliams seconded the motion.

Mr. Bell pointed out that the Registry Office at Summerside had proved very ad- vaatageous, and was also a success finan cially. He expressed the opinion that if a similar office were established at Georgetown it would be equally suecess- ful. He put in a plea for se; arate indexes for Princes County extending back thirty years,

Hon. Mr. Peters said the resolution was clearly out of order, It involved a money grantaed sheuld have emanated from a member of the Government. However, the hon. member who introduced it had per- formed his duty and he was not oppored to its being discussed under te circumstanc- es. A regisiry office had been’ given Prince County and itis apparent that in a short time a similar privilege will have to be extenced to King’s. But do circum stances warrant the immediate establish- ment of the office at Georgetown? Are the people unanimous in their demand for an office at that place? He believed the matter would be brought forward at an early date, probably next session, when the members would have more data to work upon. The Prince County mat- ter had been thoroughly investigated be fore action wastaken. He thought the indexes suggested by Mr. Bell should be provided.

Hon. Mr. Gordon reminded the House that when the Registry office was granted to Prince County it was admitted a simi- lar privilege must be granted King’s, The eXpenses of opening the office would be comparatively small, as there wasa good court house with vault, and a capable otficer, at Georgetown. He was glad to ob- serve that the Leader was not opposei to the establishment of the office at George. town, but was sorry thathe was disposed to ,Ostpone action. He (Mr. Gordon) hoped to see a sum in the ettimates suffi- cient to establish a registry cflize at Georgetown.

Mr. Robertsoa said that his constitu- ents did not want tne registry office in Geergetown, as the great bulk of their business was with Charlottetown.

Hon. Mr. Sinclair was oppored to the registry office in Prince County, because of its expeuse. An office ia Georgetown would be of little or no use to half of the county.

Mr. Mc Kinnon explaine! that bis main object in introducing the resolution was to provoke discussion, and scored the last two speakers for their opposition to the movement. He then withdrew his resolu- tion.

The House adjourned until 3. p. m. cn Tuesday.

The March te Dongola Abandoned.

New York, April 10.—The New York Herald bas the fellowing from Cairo: “From indications here it is thought the plan cf pushing the Anglo-Fgyptian army direct to Dongola bas been suddenly aban- doned. The purchase of camels and horses hae been stopped. Lord Cromer and Sir Herbert Kitchener have had a great deal of telegraphic correspondence during the last thirty-six houre. Jt bas teen found, it is thought, that the force up the Nile 1s too weak to cope with the hordes of Der- vishes now in the field and gathering to Kalifa’s fisg between Akashon and Don- gola. It is not probable now that any at- tempt will be made to advance beyond the former point at present. It is believed, too, that it is the intention of the British to move strongly by the Spakin route.

——o— Fought a Duel With Pistols.

Berwin, April 10.—A du | with pistols was fougit this morning near Pot-dam, betweer Lieberecht Von Kotze, court chamberlain, and Baron Von Schrader, master of ceremonies of the Prussian court, in which the latter was severely wounded in the right breast. The coadi- tions of the duel were that the principals should stand"ten paces apart and shoot un- til one was disabled. The combat grew out of an old scandal] connected with the writing of a series of anonymous letters affecting the character of a number of court personages.

Death of Ex-Governor Schultz in Mexico.

Mr. Bergeron's Explanation — The Remedial Bill in Committee,

Orvawa, April 14.

Sir John Schultz, ex-Govervor of Mani- toba, died yesterday in Mexico.

The House is again wrestling with the Remedial Bill. As a preliminary, deputy Speaker Bergerin rose toa question of privilege. He said his name had been in- cluded in the list of members of the House p blished in the newspapers who were ta receive appointments under the Govern- ment. The Government had not offered him a position. He had never asked for one. Hebhad not looked for one and he did not want one. ‘I intend,” continued Mr. Bergerin, “to remain in politics and to give my friend from L’islet (Tarte) a good licking.” (Cheers and ‘anght -r)

Mr. McCarthy spoke for two hours, dis- cussing the report of the Manitoba confer- ence.

He was replied to by Mr. Daly.

The discussion was continued by Martin McNeill and O’Brien.

At ten o’clock McCarthy’s motion was negatived and the committee stage entered on, clause 12 being taken up. It took ever three hours to dispose of this clause, which related to arbitration in case of re- adjustment of echool districts,

Irish Land Bill introduced.

Eee 7 = a A COMMENT,

Sir,—As an old-fashioned Methodist, I beg leave to enter a solemn protest against the letter of “F. P. T.,” in yester- day’s issue. Does the writer mean to as- sert that the congregation of the First Methodist Church are “polite and var- nished professors of, but really the ene- mies, of Christianity ?” It is evident that, since Mr. Campbell’s sermon has not yet heen published, it could only have “fallen like a ful’-charged bombshell” among those who actually heard it. If the charge be true, what a fearful comment on the privileges we have enjoyed, including the *pecial services of such devoted men as Messrs. Crossley & Hunter. Awaiting a reply from “F. P.
