Of the harbor works at Cape Tormentine it is said :—

“ Owing to the failure of the contractors to prosecute the work, fresh tenders were called for, and a contract has been entered into for the completion of the work projected.”

The Edeal Washiag Machine.

(ne of the points noted in the recent diseussions on ** successful farming” was the expediency of ‘*‘ making it as easy as possible for women folk.” While men can ride at their ease and sow and mow and reap, women should not be compelled to toil all day over the wash tub—-while the Ideal Washing Machine can be obtained for a few dollars. This machine has been tested under the eye of Tue Examiner, and we speak of that which we do know when we say that it does its work well and saves the time and Jaber of the women. It is of much more practical value in a household than an organ which the housewife hasn’t time to play. ‘* The Ideal” can be seen at ay time at the auction room of Mr. R. Beairsto in this city. Mr. Charles 1. Mor- risou 1s the agent here.

Cdidiiinatniees A nother of the most noted of the trotting sires that died in 1888 was Volunteer. He was thirty-four years old and had outlived bis usefulness, but for all that he was taken care of at the Goldsmith farm as well as wy horse possibly could be. Pine

Dexter, the horse of all horses in his day, clied in 1888, having lived to be over thirty years old. He attained a record more than twenty years ago of 2.174, at that time the fastest ule placed to the credit of any trotter. It was then that Mr. Robert GHonner paid for him $35,000. From that

time until he died Dexter was an inmate of Mr. Bonner’s stables. Dexter was re- warkable in more ways than one. Up to

the time of his death he was as active as a cat, moving around his stall with the rest- less stride of a panther, ready to attack any stranger who entered the precincts of his

domain. mn > D>

There is a renewal in Scotland of the movement of fifteen years ago in favor of union between two branches of the Pres- byterian Church, the Free Church, and the United Presbyterian Church. The amal- yamation of these two bodies has hitherto been prevented by the hostility of a deter- mined minority. A party in the Free Church threatened to claim the whole pro- perty of that denomination if the union prvuposed were consummated, on the ground that the proposal was altering fundament- ally the constitution of the Church. The present agitation has sprung up in both the vodies interested. The movement is

intary, and so far unofficial. Leading men such as Principals Rainy and Douglas, Pro-

fessors Douglas and Candlish save publicly spoken in favor of resuscitating the scheme.

“vo opposition of a formidable character has

yet appeared, but the movement is only

jue began, and not much can with certain- ty be predicted of its future.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR,

Missions in Africa.

Sin, —Recent despatches from Zanzibar ‘confirm our worst fears as to the safety of | the noble European missionaries, both men and women, who have been laboring on the mainland for raany years past, and, despite the obstinate difficulty of their work and its multitudinous dangers, with so much of real success. As many eyes are now turn- ing to the Dark Continent in which the heroie Stanley lies hidden and bloodshed and rapine are rampant, 1 have thought that your readers would be interested in the following statistics, which pertain to the missions carried on upon the Island and

in the neighborhood of Zanzibar. They are based upon a report which appeared in a recent English newspaper: —

‘1. British Missions.—(1) Church Mis- | sionary Society; (2) Universities’ Mission to | Africa; (3) Established Church of Scotland; (4) Free Church of Scotland; (5) London Mis- sionary Society (Congregational); (6) United Methodist Free Churches. Roman Catholic, none. The missionary stations of each are as follows:

“1. ©, M. 8.—This Mission has two distinct branches, each with a separate base. The first and oldest is the Mombasa branch, with its basis on that seaport; the other is the Vie- toria Nyanza branch, basis Zanzibar. The late Bishop Parker attempted to connect the two branches by successfully accomplishing a flank march from Mombasa to U-Savara. In the first branch are the tollowing stations,

Mission.—This has two

| distinct branches, each with a separate basis

on the sea. The first is the Zanzibar branch,

| with that seaport as its basis; the other is the Lake Nyassa branch, with Kilimami, in the

Portuguese colony, as its distant basis by the rivers Shire and Zambeai. In the first are the following stations:—1. Zanzibar and its environs on the island (Z.); 2. Mkusi U-Sam- bara (G.); 3. Amba, U-Sambara (G.); 4. Ma- gila, U-Sambara (U.); 5. Misoswe, U-Sam- bara (G.); 6. Masasi; 7. Newala; 8. Chitan- gali, 9. Mtua, all on or near the River Row- uma (G.) many other smaller stations. in the second are the following stations :—I. Lukoma Island ; 2. Chitesi; 3. Mayendenda ; all Lake Nyassa, cast shore (N). Lhe society possesses a lake-going steamer on the Lake Nyassa. The above stations are underlined as Mission in the annual report 1887-3.

**3. Established Church of Scotiand. Mission has one maiu station at Blantyre, on Lake Shirwa, with adjvining out-stations (N.); its basis is by the rivers Shire and Zam- besi, on Kilimani.

“4. Free Church of Scotland.—This Mission has the following stations :—1. Bandawa, a/tas Livingstonia, Lake Nyassa, west shore (N.)}; 2. A-Ngoni-land, Uplands (N.); 3. Kirengi, Lake Nyassa, north-west corner (N.); 4. Cape Maclear, Lake Nyassa, south-shore (N.); 5. Kikusi, Uplands (N.). Its basis is by the Shire and the Zambesi, on Kilimani. **London Missionary Society.—This mis- sion has the following stations:—1. Urambo (U-Nyan-wesi) (1); 2. Kavala Island, Lake Tanganyiki, west shore, (N); 3. Fambo, Lake Tanganyika, south shore(N.). Although this society has only one Mission, it is in the pecu- liar position of having to rest on two separate The access to the first station is from the basis of Zanzibar, through the German sphere of influence, and No-man’s-land. The access to the two stations on Lake Tangeny- ika rests on the basis of Kilimani, in the Portuguese colony, and passes up the rivers of Zambesi and Shire, along the whole length of Lake Nyassa, and by the ,so-called ‘ Steyen- son Road,’ which connects the north-east cor- ner of Lake Nyassa with the south shore of Lake Tanganyiki. In the event of trouble this state of affairs would prove exceedingly dangerous.

“6. United Methodist Free Church.—This Mission has the following stations:—-]. Ribe,

near Mombisa, (Z.); 2. Jumvu, near Mom-

Notre Dame d'Afrique (Tunis and Algiers).—This is the creation of Cardinal Lavigerie, Archbishop of Carthage, and part of a gigantic plan to extend Freach influence in Central Africa ; and the crusade against slavery is part of the scheme, the out- look of which is to place the Lake Tanganyika in the sphere of French influence. This Mission has two branches, but tbe basis of each is Zanzibar. The first branch is that of the Victoria Nyanza, with the following sta- tions :—(l) Rubaga, U-Ganda (I.); (2) Buk- umbi (or Ukome), Victoria Nyanza, south shore (N.); (3) Sweru (U-Nyanwezi) (N.), The second branch is that of Lake Tanganyika, with the station of Ruwewa, on the west shore, near the north extremity. Oa this lake also is the international station of Kareima, held by a French ex-Pontifical Zouave, Jou- bert, on whose assistance in his im- mediate enterprise against the slave- trade and his alterior politico-religious objects the Cardinal lays much stress in his addresses at the capitals of Europe. 2.

and possibly others; but no information has reached us of any advance in the regions north of the Zambesi, to which our present inquiry is limited.

Society alone has spent £100,000 in this region during the thirty years of the working of Its Missions. The Mission of the French at Bag- amoyo is the next in order of age. Both of these are anterior to the great Livingstone explorations; all the others are Subsequent, and one or two are on an exceedingly small scale.”

Of the Universities’ Mission (No. 2 above) I may say that, although it is connected with the Church of England; it was found- ed upon the earnest and urgent request of the intrepid Livingstone, who was a faith- ful Presbyterian. The brief history of this Mission is tragic and awfully interesting. Of its four bishops, two have fallen at their yosts, one was forced to return to England, and the last the noble Bishop Larythis, is now at his headquarters, strengthening and encouraging his faithful and heroic band of fellow-workers, who are all in imminent peril. No less than twenty _priests and deacons have laid down their lives in this Mission alone, and their number is contin- ually increasing. Lord Salisbary has pro- mised to protect them during the struggle, which is likely to be a protracted one. We know that a kind Providence, to whom they have ever been obedient, will not fail them in their time of trial and sore dis- tress.

Fehves of Dr. Doyles Jubilee.

The lion of the hour—Dr. Doyle.

The celebration was in every respect a grand success.

The excursion to Kinkora pleasant part of the programme.

St. Duastan’s College Band added con- siderable to the success of the celebration.

The many beautiful presents received by Dr. Doyle were greatly admired by all who saw them. The sumptuous repast

was a Very

in the Convent

Hall, whict followed the procession, was all that could be desired. The torchlight procession was, tn the

opinion of many, the largest affair of the kind ever witnessed on the Island.

The illumination of public buildings, stores, etc., was general, In many in- stances the designs were exceedingly pretty.

After Dr. Doyle had publicly thanked

those who took part in the procession hearty cheers were given for Dr., the () ueen, etc. . The choir of St. Paul’s Church isan ex- cellent one. Their singing on Thursday was splendid. Mr. DesBrisay presided at the organ with his usual skill. The grouping of the pupils at the Con- vent concert was very artistic, and the ex- cellence of the entertainment throughout was the subject of much comment.

The fireworks display was excellent. Chief Engineer Large and Mr. Charles Hermans went up from Charlottetown to look after this part of the programme.

The ladies and pupils of St. Mary’s Con- vent deserve every credit for the splendid entertainment given in the Convent Hall on Wednesday night. The ladies of the Convent also must be thanked for the ex- cellence of their decorations. We are informed that the chief- marshal of the processioa—Mr. Frizzle—is one of the must prominent Orangemen in Prince County. This circumstance of itself shows that in Summerside, at least, the best of feeling exists among the different religious persuasions. Among those who took an active part in the proceedings we may mention the name of Hon. Jadge Kelly, who devoted a guod deal of time and attention to the work, and tu whose zeal and energy a large share of the success of the celebration may be attributed. The interior and exterior ornamentation of St. Paul’s Church was very pretty. The arch at the main entrance to, the church bore an illuminated head-piece, inscribed: ** 1864—25 —1889.” The arches at the en- trance to the church grounds and Jeading from the verandah of the convent were also very tasteful and pretty.

The Pope’s Budget. The Pope has lately examined the ac- counts of his income and expenditure dur- ing the year 1888. The following are the principal figures:—From St. Peter’s Pence he received £300,000; from iaterest of capital invested abroad, £100,000; from alms and other sources, £20,000; making a total of £420,000; to which must be added about £80,000 received during the jubilee. The ordinary and extraordinary expenses of the Vatican during the year haye been as follow:—Alms given in Rome, £4,000; alms given abroad, £4,000; alms given in Italy, £4,000; ordinary subsidies in Rome, £2,000; ordinary subsidies in Italy, £3,200; ordinary subsidies to the church generally, £6,000; ordinary subsidies to poor priests, £5,000; sums for the Propaganda, £20,000; sums fur the diplomatic service, £20,000; sums for missions, £40,000; administrative expenses, £40,000; maintenance of Apos- tolic palaces, £20,000; expenses of public monuments, £10,000; pay of the cardina!s, £80,000; maintenance of seminaries, £90,- 000; divers expenses, £100,000. ‘Tie total expenditure is £339,200, which leaves a surplus of not much less than a quarter of a million sterling.

Draft horse importers in the States re- port ‘* business never better.” The Sreed- ers Gazette says: ** More good stallions than ever will go upon the stand the coming season, and yet more are needed. He is

- Missionaries Murdered.

ZANZIBAR, Jan, 25.

An English missionary named Brooks ind sixteen of his followers were murdered m Saturday near Saadani, by members of he coast tribe and natives of Zanzibar. Maese murders indicate the extent of the hatred to the whites the Germans have aroused. Saadani for many years has been the starting point of European mis-ions, the natives welcoming missionaries and assisting them, especially the Engl'sh. The murders have caused a sensation. The cuestion as to the measures England will tke fo punish the murderers is eagerly ciscussed here.
