only at the beginning of its good work and that each year, as it comes round, w.ll show the effects of this spirit by still fur- ther improvements

A gianee round this building wll show what a splendid exhibit of grains | and vegetables, the great staples of our country, we can produce. I think I am

over-boastful if I say it is an extib:t

in Charlottetown, and many of the animals are very admirable, after their kind. As to sheep there is, we fear, a slight falling off, though the competition is still keen, especially in Downs and Leicesters. It is pleasing to note that most of the old exhi bitors are to the front, including’ Hon- Senator Ferguson, Mr. A. Boswell, Mr. D. McKenzie, Mr. William Clarke, Mr. D. P. Irving, Dr. Warburton, and last but not least Mr. Tweedy,who shows a maznificent imported English ram.

In cattle, too, the exhibition is not par- ticularly strong—not strony as we should like to see it. The difficulty o* moving large animals long distances is the main cause ofthis. The Shorthorn and Ayrshire classes are, how, ever, pretty well filled, and there are also- very fine animals of the Jersey and Guern- sey breeds, Hon. Senator Ferguson shows a very fine herd of Galloyway cattle, and W. B. Heartz a splendid herd of Holsteins; but we should like to sce a larger number of herds in the competition.

The depressien in the horse trade has resulted in a smaller show of horses than there has been in some of the years that are past, though the quality of the differ-

SPECIAL EXHIBITS. Of the special exhibits, decidedly the most interesting to the lover of nature is

that of Mr. J.D. McQuaid, of York. Mr. McQuaid has a little building on the grounds, all to himself, the bounds of

which, we note, are increasing yeur. by year. In this building he has two hun- dred canaries, some snow birds, an Amer-

| ican bultinch, four robins,some grosbeaks,

This is a most interesting and valuable demonstration of the work that is being done in the best of our public schools, and it includes besides an omnium gatherum from every part of the world. The fol- lowing is only a partial list of the articles

Judge Fitzzerald then announced that Professor Shaw would, to-morrow, at half- past twelve o'clock, address an open-air neeting of farmers.

The exhibition this year is, in some re- spects, better than ever before; in others it is net quite up to the mark of some for- mer years. As a whole, and all things considered, the show in the exhibition building is in the highest degree creditable to the Province.

August Ruse was instantly killed and her husband, a coal miner, probably fatally wounded last evening atthe hands of a number of men, among them Noel Mason and a man named Bryce. All the persons invelved are French Canadians. It is stated they are avowed Anarchists. In some way Mre. Ruse became acquainted with some of the secrets of their secret organization, and her death was then de- cided. Itis reported that the Anarchists had made arrangements to go to Canada where they were engaged in an attempt to blowsup some of the Government build- Mason is under arrest and has con-
