Big Meeting in Tremont Temple
J
Boston, March 16, 1900.—Lsst week wight properly be called “Canadian week’ here. The presence of Sir Charles Tup- per, who spoke to five ,thousand British- bora people, mostly proviacialists, in [Tremont Temple, Menday evening, brought together a large number of promi- nent Gawadians. Sir Charles has been feted and feasted as no Canadian hae ever been before. Boston simply showered him with her kiodness and hospitality His many old friends were rejoiced to see the veteran looking so well; although the weight of nearly eighty years are pressing bim down, the marks of ime sil ligbtly on mind aod brow. Some of Sir Charles’ old friends, formerly of Cumberland County, N S., men prominent in buei- ness and professional life, recalled the (dayswhenthey eung the praises of the varty and stood for the prisaciples which Tupper expounded and,which gave to Can- | ada the National Policy. Those deys
witnessed the construction of the Cana- dian Pacific Railway, that great highway
of commerce and the foundation of Cavada’s fature greatness aad prosperity. No living Canadian in public jite today did more tnan Sir Charles Tupper to accomplish this great uadertaking. [i brings two Oceans nearer together. It links Montreal avd Vancouver by e band of steel. The value and importance ofthe C.P.R.to Canadacan orly be
reslized as tbe future unfolds, Hereis room for the peoples of all mat one, where torift and iodustry offera sure reward, intelli- gence and patience the foundation of happy homes, will a fall realization that the blessing of liberity,justice and «quality will
alwaysprevail. The names of ‘upper and Tilley and Macdowald
stand sponsor for the grea. highway of cummerce,
acd the wisdom of that policy is undisputed by beth parties to-day.
Sir Charles came here to speak oa the war in South Afriea, the proceeds to go to the widows and orpbhaas of the British soldiers in that country. Monday after- noon he was banquetted by the Harvard Cauadian Club, Cambridge, numbering about seventy students of British birtb,
includiug Professrs MeVane and Ds- Sumicarast. President Elliot, Professere Norton and White were also present. Tuesday afternoon Sir Charles was the guest of the Ceavadian Club, at ihe Beil- vue Hotel, Boston. Nearly one hundred

great meeting in Tremont Tem~|
vA 0 vent of the week. Nearly
ve thousand persons were present, while uodreds were uoable to gain admission, ne meeting was @ tremendous success. ‘he enthusiasmn was something intense.
sir Charles, when he arose tospeak, was viven a magoificen! reception, every per- won in the great ball rising. He spoke tor nearly an hour, in aclear full voice,
establishing the facts up to the outbreak of hostilities betweeu Great Britain and the Transvaal. Mogland,
said the speaker, is fighting for the liber- ties of the human race, for the advance of civilization jand the lifting up of all man-
kind—she is fighting the battle ef the people, for the ‘principles of justice and equality. Durieg Sir
Charles’ address not a single anfriendly interruption was heard. The meeting was in thoreugh sympathy with the speaker. When the house rose to sing “God Save the Queen,” the spectacle was as imposing as it was remarkable—occur~ ing in agreat American city. The great
auditorium blazed with a thousand jets,
balcony over balcony fringed with rows of happy smiling <faces, looked down on a thousand waving Union Jacks. On the atage some thirty veteran soldiers of the Qaeen seemingly stood guard, their bright uniforms and accoutrements flasning be- neath the globes of light. To the right ef Sir Charles cat fifty nurees of the Red Cross, decked in white aprons and caps
The nurses took up a collection brought to the Seath African fund an ad- ditional nineteen hundred dollare. The Patriotie'South African Fund now reaches $12,000, all contribated by British-born people. Two instalments of $5,000 each have been forwarded tothe Lord Mayor of London.
The gallantry displaved by the Canaciom troops ia South Africa is eepecially grati- fying to resident Canediaas here. Their fearlessness and dash, their passionate loyalty, their usexempled courage and ibeir devotion to tothe cause of human righte, have won the admiration and re-~ spect of the whole world. Whether march ing over arid plain beneath a burning sun, or rushing the monatain side heneath the starsof night, or crossing the sluggish river beneath a treacherous fire uoawed by their fallen comrades, they push on to victory or death, the same undaunted, heroic Canadiane. This is the epirit of free men, the epirit which gave Britain ée many great victories in the past, and that same spiritcannot be quenched as» long ra asingle Anglo Saxon lives.
Tue resait of this war will cement the colunies to the Mother Country to an in- dissoluble bond. Their blood has mingled in 8 Common stream, and when the prin~ eiples of truth and justice are re-establish- ed in South Afries, the old Uaion Jack, the symbol of freedom and civilization, shall fly from the wave-weshed ehores of the Cape to the land of the Pharaohs.
Gen. ral Cronje and his fellow captives embarked for St. Heiena yesterday. He will have achance to look out on the ‘gad ani solemn ses” through the same wiodows which met the gaze of the great Napoleun. There he will learn of Eng- land’s mercy and justice as he has tasted of her prowess and might.
The new war loax of $150,000,000 is a striking evidence of Britain’s vast re. sourcee. This gives an idea of what could be done in a long and bloody war with any ofthe great powers. Three hours after the bonds were issued, the whole an.ount was subscribed for twenty times over. The Bank of England has taken nearly the entire issue, I notiee the Bank of Montreal gets $5,006,000.
The Hov. J. G. Schurman, Prerident of Corne!l College, is by common consent, P, §&. Island’s most distinguisnoed son abroad. His appointment as Chairman of the Philippine Commission by President McKinley has given bim 8n international reputation. His exhaustive and remark- able report, and his recommendation to President McKinley as to the form of gev- ernment for the Philippine Islands, were accep'ed and approved. The new com- mission will sail for the east in June to put Presideat Schurman’s recommend~ ation into operation. oe
I had the pleasure of listening to Mr. Schurman the other day before the Mags achusetta Republican Club at Yonng’s Hotel. He wasone of the invited guests, the ether gentleman was the Hon White- law Reid, editor of the New York Tribune.
which
Mr. Schurman can lay nO claim to oratory, but be talks in a _ cool earnest manner believing what he
says and having thefaculy of imparting that belief to others. President Schur- man is in great demand as a public speaker in all the large cities of the Union. He is regarded as an authority on all matters affecting the government of our new possession in the East. Should President McKinley be re-elected a Prince Edward Islander will represent the United States at the Court of St. James.

Well. Jehn, this is a strange country aad lots of stramge things are to be seen, ostriches, centipedex, tintantulare, tortoises, etc, roam around among the tects, besides lots of strange birds and anigjals out on the veldt and up on the hills. There is » farm house about every 6 or 6 miles, and each farmer has five or six thousanuacres. If you were here you would make a fortune even faster than on theIslaad. Milk is 12 cents per quart, eggs 36 cents per dozen, and every- teing else in proportion. The farmer or his sons or wife never lay their bandsto any work Kaffir laberis se cheap aad good,

This was the firat ermed iova sion of the enemy’s country. We had to getready for action twiee, but instead of it being the Boers it preved to be another British column. Once we were on the verge of opening fire when the mistake was found out. It was very excitieg, aod we were very much disappointed when we found there was to be mo fight. We stayed all night at # Boer farm house. The owner is one of the Boer leaders. We took everything possible, about 90 head of horses and ca'tle, a transpert wagon with 16 head of oxen to haul it, a new boggy ard span of horses, a wagou load of valu- able furniture, a new bicycle and various otber articles of lees value.
