DOMINION COAL 00

NEW YORK, March 24.-Owners of

the Norwegian steamer Olva were held liable for breach of contract in n

Judge Veeder, because they notified the Dominion Coal Company of Can- ada that on account of the war their

vessel would not be available this year under a five year charter to ply between Canada and European ports. The defendants notified the coal com- pany that the neutrality laws of Nor- way would be violated if the ‘boat were compelled to carry contraband goods.

Judge Veeder decided that the ques-

tion of the vessel carrying contraband were prohlematlcal and that if such a demand were made the defendants could have refused. The conl company sued for $225,000, but the court did not ruls on tho amount of damages, holding that this would be decided by the expense incurred by the coal com- pany In chartering another vessel.

The decision was in the form of an

anticipatory decree in Admiralty and is one of the rarest decrees in the his- tory of American courts.

TAKE TREASURES -

FROM THE LOUVRE.

A writer in the Paris "Opinion" has

9UCC00d0<1 ln entering the Museum of U10 Louvre, now closed to the public, 9’.‘.<1 Blllfis u. rather interesting descrip- Vdon of the present state of thc world- `fl:tn1ous galleries. In the beginning of the wur there wus some questions of A giving hospitality to pictures and art treasures from other regions; from Calais, Chantilly, and eisewhee, some precious guests were sheltered. But

T___i...;_.il__ . later on the curators decided to puck

up ull the smaller and more precious canvuses, which were sent off to Bor- deaux. The heavier pieces ot' .sculp- ture and more bulky treasures, how- ever beneath the roof. The venus of

Milo and such like celebrities have nil been put to sleep underground.

GFIINNING EMPTY FRAMES.

The famous Sails Lacaze gives a

fair idea. ot' most of the galleries; scarcely any of the pictures have been left in the line, and all the Watteaus, Luncrcts, Nattiers, und their fellow favorites are on the shores of the (lar- onne. Nothing but the empty frames remain grinning from the wall, and the ` floor is covered with long hosepipes; ready to put out any fire started by a bomb from a wandering Zeppelin or Aviutlk. The some fear of bombs probably has emptied _ull the rooms with the glass rool's, put up all thc shutters, and imprisoned the victory of'Ss1notIlrace” is u. thick-planked but with a heavily mnttressed proof. Al- most all the Dutch pictures seem to have gone, though s great many French primitives .still remain In their places. lt would be curious to know

his right and lefthand neighbors were left; and why the oldest picture In the Louvre-"The Virgin” of Clmabuo - has been Icl’L utmost nlone with her angels in hor dcpopuluted room. All the inuncnso frames in thc ltubcns roomuro lying on the floor, but the splendid collection left by Chauchnrd has not been touched. Amongst the countless glass cases some of them are smothered In canvas, whilst the contents of others have been stowed away in far and secret places. In the gallery of Apollo much tho sumo sys- tem has been followed. and e. large. ugly, great safe probably contains within its inasethetic sides a thousand treasures of history.

PRECIOUS GREEK MARBLES.

Most of the inhabitants of the Sa-

lon Carre have disappeared, and the feat of rolling up and carrying away the enormous cunvus of the Sucre has been suwossfully performed. The most precious of the Greek marbles have mostly been collected on the ground floor, whore enormous piles of sacks of send hide the windows and guard the doors leading to their retreat. The second-rate heroes and the gods and goddesses wo know so well .still rcrnnln standing in thc old places dccorntcd by their harmonious, beauty. “Ki

lf anybody goes to tho Louvre now

and inquires of the 'l`orl°itor|nl on guard when the doors are llkoly to bc opened, the only answer he cun give is the one which is applinble to half the dlillcultles and deprlvatious un- der which Paris is suffering. the end of which ls to be “Apres ls gucrrc, mon- slour."

DUKE FORECASTS

MORE SOLID RUSSIA.

OTTAWA, March 26.- An intimate

and personal light was' thrown' upon the Czar of all the Russians. by his uncle, His Royal Highness the Duke of Connaught on Saturday at s. Canad- ian Club luncheon, where an address was being delivered by the Hon. Curt- is Guild, late U. S., ambassador to Russia. The Dulre's speech contained the maximum of information about a great world figure, in a. maximum of words. lt was an unexpected speech, as His Royal Highness threw aside the usual formality attached to the ap- pearance of Royalty in public, took his audience, as it were into his con- fidence, and gave a glimpse of the character of a man whom he know n his home life. _

The Govemor-General stated he had

been much impressed with Mr. Guild`s address and thought our affections for our ally would be greatly increased af- ter hearing Mr. Gutld's address, which had made clear certain points not fully realized by many.

“I em related to the Czur of Rus-

sia," he said. "I know him personally as n man. Ho ls a. loveable man, a. man of many simple tastes, a family man and possesses many attributes which we here would all admire."

His Royal Highness stated that he

had only been In Russia twice, and one of' the occasions was the corona- tion of the present Czar. He had been struck on that occasion with the tre- mendous uumbcr of trlbcs and people represented in the vust concourse which thronged tho streets of St. P... tsrsburg und which ln all reverence had acclaimed their new Emperor. He believed the Ruslans were religious people and felt that one result of the war would be to cement this great em- plre of widely diversified people into an even closer solidarity.

NEVER MIND. MY LORD..

Lord Aberdeen once told s story

against himself. He was speaking at n charity dinner in Liverpool. and he took the opportunity of warning his henrers against trusting to appear- unces, "I arrived at s railway station lately,” ho said, "where I was ex-, pectlng a telegram to awnit rue. So I went up to the nearest porter and asked him would he mind enquiring at thc statIonl‘uaster's office whether there was n. telegram for nic. “'l`herc`s none for you, sir.’ at once replied the porter. ‘l’ve just come out of the of- flco slid tllerefs only one telegram there. and that’s for Lord Aberdeen!` Just then an offlclnl who knew me op- pronched und I explained the position to him, remarking joculnrly that the porter certainly did not think I looked the part. By woy of consollng mc he promptly replied. "Never mind, my Lord, if you don't look it, you feel "_, .. `

JUST WHY J. A. I-llLL RECOM- MENDS DODD'S KIDNEY PILLS.

toms of Kidney Dlseaao and .Got

I 9.

Sixty-Nine Corners, Ont., March

29th-_- "I sm recommending Dodd's Kidney Pills as the best of medicines." Tile spcukcr wus Mr. J. A. lilll, rr well- known resident ot' this place, and he left no doubt in the minds of his henr- ers that he meant every word he said.

"Some time ago," Mr. Hill continu-

ed, "I had a very sore back. It started from s. cold and I suffered for six months with it. I also had stiffness in my joints and cramps in my muscles and I felt heavy and sleepy after meals. My appetite was iltful and my limbs were heavy. 'I‘hcn I decided to try Dod’s Kidney Pills. I took four boxes and received great benefit from them. That's why I recommend Dodd’s Kidney Pills."

Everyone of Mr. Hill's symptoms

showed' that his trouble was of the Kldneys. That is why he got such boncfit from Dodd's Kidney Pills. They are no cure nt ull. but they do euro sick Kidncys, und the Kidncys ure thu keystone of hculth.
