GENTLEMEN ELECTORS :

Twenty years ago I received from my people a very largely signed petition ask- ing for a law to prohibit tne traffic in intox- icating liquors. lo response ‘o this request my gOvernment at that time granted & half way measure,—a law entitled “The Canada Temperance Act, 1878.” Today the scene is changed, and now my govern - meat is ap pealiog to the free and indepen- dent electors of this broad Dominion, to sav by a plebiscite vote, yes or no, whether they desire a law prohibiting the manutacture, traffic and importation of lquore, for beverage purposes.

THOUSANDS HOMELESS AND STARVING. Four Infatuated Girls Make Martyrs

of Themselves’

Vascouver, B. C., September 22,—The

|Oriental mail brought by the Emprees of

India yesterday morning is more than usually full of murders and sudden deaths. Japan and China have been visited by tear- fui storms. On September 2, six severe

thunderstorms broke over the Yokohama district. [n the harbor many vessels dragged their anchors and broke adrift. In the interior, rivers burst their embank-~ ments and houses were washed away.

At Kumoro a large landslide occurred and 15 persons are reported missing. In Tokio 467 buildings were blown down or damaged and about 216 bouses flooded. umms, Saitama, and other prefec-

| tures various rivers have risen, aad bridges

|and houses have been carried away. On ‘the Takaido line, considerable damage was

| done to the railway between Kayama, Ya- | maki and Gotemba, and again between

Okitsui and Kanabara. The Nippou Railway has also sustained great damage. Heavy thunderstorms visited the Nayoya prefecture during which thirty houses in the village of Kawitsugzui were destroyed by lightning, and several

people killed.

A terrible storm passed over the island

| of Okiroba infl:c:ing serions damage. Ten persons were injured, some fataliv. “Daring ‘severe thunderstorms at Shagbai, a China- man was frightened to death by lightning, and 3ix other persons were killed.

At Hong King, the steam launch Jean Laurs, was capsized in the storm. M Schultz, tbree Annimitea and a Japanese |lost their lives. Schultz was = Govern-

ment official and his little daughter who was with bim, was also lost.

A Korean paper reports that in the Magistracy of Koisab, over sixty persons lost their lives in the recent flood, aud that

|adeluge swept away forty houses on an ‘island in Chung Ju. That old source of trouble to China, the Yellow River, so well named ‘“China’s ‘ Sorrow,” is again giving cause for anxiety. According to the Tsinig (Shantung) corres - ‘pondentthe region north of the Anshap

Mountains bas been intindated for huadrecs4

of miles by the Yellow River. The in- andation was caused by breaches in the river’» banks and the’ result was most

lamentable. The damage is so widespread that several bundred thousand persons have been plunged into deepest distress, and many ioto absolute peoury, which local authorities are unable to alleviate owing to want of funde.

Now that Germany has acquired terri- torial rights in Shantung, witb other con. ces-ions, it is suggested the German Gov~ eroment may encourage German or Datch engineers to prescribe a remedy for this aonual scourge of the Hoangbo.

At the feast of the Seven Celestial Sisters of Genii, on the seventh day of the seventh month, it is the custom in Canton and elsewhere for :ingle girls to worship Genii. On the occasion of the feast this year four girls made martyrs of them- selves, Thev tied themselves together by their hair, jumped into the river and were drowned.

British Cunsul Butler, at Kiurgehew, has requested the American Consul, Dr. Bedloe, at Canto, to urge the Viceroy to send soldiers to Nodoa, near Hocbow, to protect the lives and property of American missioparies in thas district. It appears that Rev Dr P W McClintock and Rev W J Leverett, of the American Presbyterian mission if the island of Hainan, were oblidged to take their families and fly for their lives from Nodoa anj sk p otection of the Britieh Consul at Hiohow.

Reports of the rebellion in Hainan indi-~ cate the renewed success of the Triad Society, a band of thieves and rebels, who have been increased and strengthened by 4 hungry horde of pirates from the sea coast, and this lawless army committed many depredations by looting and burning a number of villages in Hoihow couatry.

SECRET CONVENTION.

Reported to Have Been Signed Be- tween China and Russia.

Lonpoyx, September 23.—A despateh to the Globe from Hung Kong, published this afte:noon, purports to give details of the secret convention signed at Pekin on March 27. It appears that Hsu Ying | Kiouoi, ot the Chinese foreign fire, thereby concluded an agreement with St Petersburg by which China ceded Port Arthur snd ‘TasLien-Wan, stipulat- ing that only Russian and Chinese war ships enter or dock at Port Arthur

Russia, it also appears, gets exclusive use of the inner harbor of Ta-Lien-Wan, the sole administration of the ceded terri- tories, and a tract of land north of Ta- Lien~Wan is designated as a buffer-belt.
