from the Un'lversity of Notre Danie in Indiana. ‘ `
It was as a poet that Mr. Roche'
made his best reputation. His first volume, "Songs and Satires," pub- iirhna in lass, ranked iiiin nt once in
writer and editor and was greatly :the front row of the younger poets oi
beloved. Mr. Roche was both the intimate friend and _biographer of _ John Boyle O'Reiily, whom hc suc- ceeded as editor of the Boston Filot. He was born May 31, 18-i7,nt Mount`

Debate
' Wednesday, April 8.
AFTERNOON SESSION.
House met at 3.30, and went into Committee for the second reading of the act to consolidate the public debt of the Province.
This measure evoked some remarks
from the Leader ot the Opposition, relative to the refusal-of information as to the debt, by the Government.
The bill was, however, reported
agreed to without amendment, and set down lor third reading.
The act prohibiting the running of
automobiles on the roads of this Province was read a second time
and unanimously agreed to, and set down for third reading. _
A motion to resume the debate on
the Budget was carried, and Hon.
Mr. Cummlskey, Commissioner of
Public Works, resumed his speech, which had been interrupted by ad- journment the night before. His re- marks dealt largely with the present
system of dealing with, the roads and| bridges ofthe Province, which he said was cheaper and better tbanl ever before, and far more satisfac- tory to the people. The Commis-I sioner spoke ably and well, and he concluded with a masterly and grace ful peroration, in which he eloquent-i ly presaged the triumphant return of] the present administration after the
coming elections-and_ he generously

» Mr. Richards ,(B‘ldeford) was the next speaker. He felt difiident, he said, about taking up the matter of flgunes, which had been so largely dealt in by previous speakers, but, notwithstanding this, he very clearly set forth, and in a. most convincing and manly manner, the fact that the' Government had done only what was proper in the matter oi placing the $35,000 subsidy belonging to last year into last year's account, and showed that there was very little in the contention of the Opposition speakers that there was any falsifi- cation of the accounts. Buch a term was highly uncalled for and not the proper word to use. I-ie made in neat speech and disposed of a num- ber of Opposition charges in a par- ticularly effective manner.
Mr. Kickham (Bouris) followed. He
has not spoken much this session but on rising to his feet. yesterday he went right to business. He com- plained that. his district had been shamefully neglected by the Commis-I sioner of Public Works, who, he said, could do nothing for the roads along which Tories lived, but allowed them to become swamps. He read out the names of a lot of rights of'viay purchased during electlonvears, but roads have never been opened.
Mr. Kickham was interrupted in his
speech by the six o'clock adjourn-
uttered the hope that both his old_ friend rhé Lender oi the oppnrition| and himself would be re-elected, and continue to do business, “at their, old stands.” The Commissioner sat.
