UNITED STATES SOLDIERS REPORT. |

SERGEANT Ty er, of the Untied Stats | j}armyin Chita, has written several ex . ceedingiy interesting letters to his father Ceptain F, E. Tyler, whicn pave beeo published in the Caatitanooga News, o Tennessee. [ao the coirse of the lase of these, published on the 21st inetact,

Sergeant [Tylor says: 3

“The soldiers of the greatest nations fighting together quite asight [ as sure you andthechance to observe their drese, armament, characteristics «as lighting abilities bas been a good one, Th: Japanese are @ revelation to the other forces.

I only say that if the men were taken care of asare the English and Japanese, we could lick the world. The fault is not with the men but with their management. For instance, the other troops go into a fight with

their canteens, rifles and ammuni while we have to carry in addition tuese a haversack containg a mesa outfit, 2 dave’ rations,forty rounds of extra amuni- tion and a blanket roll containing an army blanket, halfa shelter tent,a pole for same anda poncho, After.walking about ten or fifteen miles in a broiling sun with nothing but alkali ‘water to drink and with this load on we could not make many charges at doub'e timet

WHAT FARMERS SHOULD DO.

Mr GeorGe Baxter, of Andover, NB, writes to the Co-operative Farmer and says:

‘There is a question that isup for die- cussion, the coming campaign that is of special interest to farmers; and that is the question of preferential trade. The farmers throughout the dominion should give this question their careful consider ation. It may be only a dream, a utopian scoemet; but it would be traugut witb -uch advantages to tni3 country that it i+ worth making sneffort toobtain. It 3 worth agitating the next ten yeare, ‘avd the party that will work tbe hardest «to bringit about isthe party the farmers should support. It may come about io the course of events sooner than might be expected.”

This is true; and the advice is good.

NOTES AND COMMENTS.

—Mr. R. P. Koblin has been selected for the position of Premier of Manitoba,

—An autumn election. Tne Mail and Empire suggests that Laurier intends to fall with the leaves,

—The Moatreal Star and otber Eng- lish speaking journale have nothing but words of praise for Mr. Marchand, the recentiy deceased Premiet of Quebec.

—Sir Charles Tupper states that he considers Hon. Hugh John Mscdonald’- speech at Stratford equal to his father’s best effort, while he never knew @ Cane- dian public manto meet with such 8 magn ficent reception.

—Some British Columbia papers are discussing what should be done with the Laurier Gove.nment’s surplue,—wherc- upon the Montreal Gazette remarks that “the most importaut thing would be to find it. The statex eat of accounts print- ed officially in the Canada Gazette shows that it 1s not there.”

—The Montreal Gazette reminds ua tbat Sir Louis Davies in 1894 denounced the coal oil duty as ‘“‘an atrocious, urjust and intolerable tax on every poor family and a public robbery,” and remarks that ‘ Sir

the duties so that the monopolists charge some 6 cente a gallon more than they did in 1894,and because boih are in the riog,’ Sir Louis is cilent.”

—The Galt R-porter attributes to Mr. Tarte the following cuggestive lines :

“Tam monarch of al! I survey,

My right there is none to di-pute—

From Halifax away out to B, C.

They all quake when I’m tooting my toot,”

One thing is very certain, that those Ontario ministers who tried to engineer Mr. Tarte found out tbat he was too -tropg a kiug to be depcted by them.

Mr. Seaman moved the thanks of the Convention to Sir William McDonald, and Prof. Robertson,the former forss kind ly donating the means for starting this excellent and useful department of school work,the latterfor the very great interest he has takenin getting it started. Also that Mr. Collier convey tothese gentle- man thenotice ofthis resolution. Miss Gillis of Murray Harbor South read a very thoughtful and practical paper on **Music in thepublic schools.” Miss Gillis showed clearly that the study of music} is not only practical but necessary to the development of lung power and therefore conducive to health and enjoy- ment. Owing to lack of time and he overcrowded state of the school cir- jriculum too little attention is given to this important subject, but teachers lose much in neglecting it. Children work better,march better, do all their work when keepingtime to some simple,familiar tune. A vote of thanks, moved by Mr. Ewen Stewart and supported by Miss Annie Moore was presented Miss Gillies. Mr. McSwain came next with an interesting talk on nature studies. This address was illustrated with specimens of fungi which were passed round and ex- amined by the members, showing what interest can be taken in apparently very uninteresting things such as we daily pass by without noticlng. Mr. McSwain is well up on the subject and well able to direct the attention of others to this most interesting subject. A vote of thanks was moved by Mr. Landrigan and second- ed by Mr. W. C. West,

LORD KOBERTS AND THE CANADIANS.

Pretoria, Sept 25.— Field Marsha! Lore Roberts, in the presence of Lady Reberts and his daughter, reviewed the Canadians on the eve oftheir dezarture. It was a brilliant scene, the mev, who are in excellent ealth, making « eplendid appearance. After the march past, Lord Roberts addressed them briefly. He said : |

‘‘I cannot allow you to depart without | expressing my thanks for aad apprecia-|

tion of your loyal services and excellent work, especially at Pasrdeberg on Febru- ary 27. I am sure the people of Canada will be pleased to hear how gallantly and how splendidly youhave all behaved in action.

“Deeply do I regret the losses you have | suff-red. I should have been happier | could you have returned in full strength, | but noone could expect you to pass through eo arduous a campaign without losses,

“fam sorry that come of you are obliged to return sooner thap the rest of | the regiment, but I recognize the urgency | of private affairs, I am confident that the eon and the British ptopje will never forget your services. Ifit should ever be my good fortune to visit Canada, 1 hope tO meet you all again.”

Afier the troops had given cheers for the Queemand the Field Marshal, the lat- ter shook» hands with the Canadian officers’ and presented them to Lady Roberts.
