Lonpox, Oct. 5.—Preparations far war throughout Great Britain have not been! equalled since the taking of Sebastapo]. ? Within the past week the activity has extended to the navy and dockyards.

The signs are ominous,

she extent of these preparations attracts the gravest curiosity on every hand. Some of the papers hint at prospective compli- cations of the Transvaal crisis.

Bioemroytein, Ovi. 5.—The govern- ment published a telezram from Boshof, stating that the British forces have crossed the border and that menced,

Anothertelegram sara that troops have crossed the border, but that no fighting has yetoccurred. The government discredits the report.

showed that a teacher sbnould keep io touch with the thoughts of great educationists. Let them read the educational papers best It is pot necessary to read all the books that are printed to have a perfect knowledge. Such great poets as Spencer, Chaucer, Shakes- peare, Miltoo, Burns, Wordsworth, Loug- fellow, Tennyson,etc.are well worth reading All these writers bad great feelings aud utteredthem from their hearts. Teachers should read no authors which they have no relish} for, as bv reading them they derive no benrfit whatever. Better to try something else which will strike a sympathetic ctord in tbe mind of the reader. Teachersshould not try to eprecd their knowledge too widely, lest it may do no good anywhere. Child study should be the object of every good teacher. Hon. Mr. Stetson’s remarks were eloquent, and were listened to with the closest attention. Complimentary remarks were made by Mesers Seaman, H.Campbe'!l and Super~ entend2at McLeol, the lastof whom con~ veyed io Mr. Stetson the thanks of the convention for his able address. Convention adjovraed uoiil 2pm.

The Colonies’ Contingent.

Montreal, Oct. 4.—The Star’a London correspondent save: “The British gov.. ernment has cabled the Canadian govern

ment that it gladly accepis Canada’s loyal offer for troops for South Africa. Ac~

ceptances have already been cabled to Queensland and New Zealand. The

ministers feel that such an opportunity of giving England’s enemies a magnificent object lesson in the solidarity of the em- pire cannot be neglected. Similar units will be received from the Australian

colonies. The British government does not desire any large amount of troops, butonly enough to havea fighting unit

from each colony to representa united empire in the field.

Transvaal Contingent.

Toronto, O:t. 4-—Thea announcement in the Military Gazette thatthe Canadian contingent for the Transvaal will be com» manded by Colonel Herbert, caused con- siderable surprise among military meo here, it being geueraliy understood that Col. Otter should command the contin~ gent. Militia circles expect Colorel Drury of Kingston will be atthe head ot the battery, Col. Buchan, of London, of ihe infautry,and Captaia Forrester, of Toronto, of the cavalry.

|GREAT YACHT RACE AT NEW YORK

The Same Course Over Again

RACES TO BEGIN EARLIER THAN ON FIRST DAY

The Weather and all the Prospects Good.

([SpzcraL, To Toe Examiner}

New York, Oct 5—Uncertainty has prevailed as to the course which will be sailed tosmorrow by the Shamrock and Columbia.

The matter was settled, however, defin- ately this afterncon, at a meeting of the Regatta Committee.

After the meeting S. N. Kane announced that tosmorrow’s race would be as on Tues. day, fifteen miles to windward or leeward and beat back.

An agreement has been made betweea Sir Thomas Lipton and the Columbia’s owner which provides that when it is im- possible to finish a contest within the time limit the same class of race must be con- tinued urtila decision is reached. Con- sequently before the two boats can meet on the three leg bout, it will be necessary to seitle their capabilities on straightaway run of fifteen miles

In consequence of the quickly waning daylight this timeof year, the Regaits Committee today decided thatthe start should be made at 10.45 a. m.

The indication for todays race, while not predicting perfect yachting weather, points to favorable conditions for a good race.

VENEZUELAN AWARD.

Neicher Briish Guiana Nor the Re- public Gets all Demanded.

Paris, Oct 4.—Tie award of the Anglo- Venezuelan Boundary Arbitration Com- mission was read at noon yesterday.

The decision was unanimous, Itis con sidered in. the nature of a compromise ra.her than as favouring Venezuela.

It appears that Great Britaio loses some of her claims io the interior aud on the coas', and the froutier wil! siart at Waim River.

The decision,which was read by M. F.de Mariens, the umpire, who has presided over the deliberations of the tribunal, is as follows:

“The undersigned, by these presente, give and publish our decision determini ing and judging, tcuching and concerning the questions that have been eubmitted tous by said arbitration, we decide, declare and pronounce definitely that the line of fron- tier of the colony of British Guiana and the United States of Venezuela is as fol- lows:

“Starting on the coast at Points Pi aya, ihe frontier shall follow a straight line to the conflance on the Barima and the Mari- ums, thence following the valey of the latter to the source of the Corentia, other-

wise called the Cutari River.”

‘Thence it shall proceed to the con- fiuence of the Hioawa, asd the Armakuru, thence, following the Thelweg of the Am- akuru, to its sourceio the Plain of Imata- taka; thence, i in @ south-westerly direction along tbe h'gheet ridge of the Imataka Mcuntains to the h'gbest po'nt of tae Ima-( taka chain opposite the source of the Bari-

ma and the privc'pal chain of the imat«ka Mouatains; thence in a south-west aon } tion to the south of the Acarabi-i, fullow- ' ing the Thalwon of the Acarabisi to the Cuyuni, the portbern bank of whic | follows in a westerly direction to the confluence of the Cuyuni and the Vanomu ; thence along the Thalweg of th« Vanomu to its westeromost source; ther ce | in @ straight line to the summit of Mo

From this point the frontier shal! follow the Thalweg of the Continga to its con. , fluence with the Takutu ; ; thence along the Thaiweg of the Takuta to its source : )! thence in a straight line to the most west-

(LILIUM HARRISII)

One of the grandest winter- flowering plants in culti- vation.

Pure pearly white, deliciously fragrant and a remarkable profusion of bloom, characterize this charming and celebrated Easter Lily. Its popularity and sales bave increased wonderfully and deserved- ly, for without exception, it is one of the most valuable bulbe for winter flowering in the bouse. A profusion of bloom may @ bad from Caristmas until spring, if a number are planted and “brought in” at diff-rent times. Bulbs after flowering can be ripened and rested a couple ot months by withholding water, aud will then pro- duce another crop of flowers frequently equal to the first. It isa magnificent variety for church decoration at Easter and tens of thousands are grown for this purpose. The flowers are pore wile, 4 or 5 inches long (ani frequently more) and of the most delicious tragrance,
