__————s - ~~ ee CREAMERY NOTES
The output of butter at the ‘Central Creamery to-day was 830 Iba.. which was taken away as fast as it could be boxed. Of this amount 400 lbs. were sold in town, and the remainder weut off to customers on the mainland, besides which many orders have to be held over til] next week.
Mr. Dillon now has orders booked for 2,000 lbs. batter for the foreign and local trale, which he hopes to fill next week.
It is to be hoped the farmers will make : a note of this and send along their milk, as it is really too bad to have orders go to other paris when this maaufacture brings in the ready cash to them and is hard to get out of anytlring else.

keys to mankind was recently illustrated in London. In one of the school di-tricta too many parents reported no children in their families, and in order to ascertain the real number of children in the district the echool officers resorted to an ingenious measure. Two monkeys were gaily dres § ed, put in a warcp, and, accompanied be a brass band, were carried through the streets of the district. At once crowds of children made their appearance. The procession was stopped in a park, and the school officers began their work, distribut- ing candies to the youngsters they took their names and addressee. They found out that over sixty parents kept their chil- dren from school. The ingenious meas- ure brought to the school about two hun- dre} boys and girls.

—* Sir Oliver Mowatt ie’ a miracle of «hrewdness and eagacity.” So says the Montreal Witness, and the occasion of tke remark is that Sir Oliver has put a stop to the evil of members of the legislature getting passes from the railways, by tak- ing the mileage fees from the members, and going exclusively into the railway pass business himself. It is remarked by the Evening Mail of Halifax that Sir Oliver has always shown himself shrewd encugh to wantto handle all themoney aud run everything. Tile new orcer of things is said to be that for the same amount of mileage rates as has been paid during the legislative session, the railways are to grant passes f:rthe whole year: but as there ix not a pretense that this is the full price of the passes, it is net easy to see where the independence of the legis lature, for which the Witness has been contending, comes in. Before, a few mem- bers may have put themselves. under obli- gation to railways, but under the new order the whole legislature seems to be- come pensionrrs of these ecrporations.

MANITOBA SCHOOL QUESTION
to Proceed to Winnipeg.
Remedial Bill to Be Press.d Forward.
Deputation
Orrawa, March 21,
There is a new development in connec- tion. with the school question.
A meeting of the cabinet was held last evening, at which it was decided to cona- mission Hon. Mr. Dickey, Minister of Justice, and Hon. Mr. Desjardines, Minis- ter of Militia, to proceed to Winnipeg to negotiate with the Manitoba Government with a view to a settlement. It was in- tended that they should leave Ottawa for Winnipeg this afternoon, but as Sir Don- a'd Smith, who will accompany them, has business in Montreal to-day, the ministers may not get away until Monday.
Duting the absence of the delegates from Ottawa the Remedial Bill will be proceeded with on every possible occasion, it being the Government’s intention to ut.s Ze al] the remaining time at their dis- posal to pass the measure into law 11 the event of the negotiet‘ons w th Manitoba coming to naught. A minister stated that the Grits would not be asked to take a hand in the negotiations.
