SATURDAY,

Meeting at Mur:ay Harbor North

According to notice a large and intelli- gent meeting of packers and fishermen, and those interested in the lobater business was held in the hall at Murray Harbor North on the 12:h January Mr. Daniel McKeeman was appeinted Chairman and the under- signed Secretary. Ilo a few appropraite remarks the Chairman stated the object of the meeting, and called on any person pre- sent that wished to address the meeting to do so,

The Hon. A. C. Macdonald, being pre- sent, spoke at some length, advising moder- ation on the part of both packers and fish ermen, and concluded by wishing to hear the fishermens’ views on the subject.

After Mr. James Clow, M. P. P., gave expression to his views in a practical sp-ech the following fishermen spoke, viz: Thomas Millar, Jeremiah Daly and Jonathan Lewellin, all concurring in the upjustness of those intended restrictions to be placed on the fisheries, and elso gave Mr. Mac- donald to underatand that they a grear number of whom are supporters of the Govy- erument—would withdraw their support from the present party in power if ssid re- strictions should be put in force.

Mr. Peterson being ealled on spoke at sou: length about the importance of the '] ber industry, and upholding the fisher- raen in their remarks.

The tollowing reselution was proposed iby Mr Clow, M. P. P., seconded by Mr. Angus MeFadyen :

Resolved—That it ie the opinion of thia meeting that the proposed new regulations as issued by the Department of Marine & lieh- eriea for the further protection of the Lobster Fishery, mean, if enforced, the utter de- struction ef the Lobster Industry and the closing up of every factory on the Island.

Further Resolved -That it is our opinion that no restrictions are necessary for the pro- tection of the industry beyond the enforcement of the close season.

Further Resolved—That a copy of this re- solution be forwarded to the meeting to be held at Charlottetown.

The following delegates were appointed to attend the meeting in Charlottetown, viz, James Clow, M. P. P., and Daniel McKee- map, Esq

A vote of thanks was extended to Mr McDonald, M. P., for attending the meeting, to which he suitably replied, and promised to use bia influence with the Government, par ticularly Mr. Tupper, not to have said restrictions enforced.

fern to Pieces by a Pet.

JEALOUSY OF A MASTERS BRIDE LEADS YOUNG LION TO KILL HER.

A

A most peculiar instance of jeslousy in an animal is reported from a rauch up in the range northwest of Silver City, N. M. A Mexican named Juan Lopez some years ago caught a young mountain lion and raised it as a pet. He had the animal completely under subjugation, and it was as docile with him as a house cat.

The lion is now about four years old and is fall grown, but it bas always been accus- tomed to sleep at the foot of the bed of its master and has followed him like a dog when he went about the place. He had it trained for hunting, and it was always with him except when he came to town. It had never shown any savage disposition when with other people and would allow visitors to fondle and pet it.

Lopea recently fell a victim to the charms of one of the senoritas of the vicin- ity and in course of time married her. The girl was brought home to the cabin of Lopez, and her first move was to insist that the lion should be made to sleep out of the house, as she was afraid of the big animal. Lopez assented to her wishes and built a house for his pet near the door of his cabin.

When he attempted to make the animal go in it that night, the brute for the first time ws disposed to rebel against the wishes of its master, and the result was that it received a whipping. It went sul- lenly into the bux, but all night long the Mexican and his bride could hear its low growls. Next morning the animal slunk into the house and carled up in a corner, repulsing the caresses of its master. It was sullen all day, but the bride noticed that it watched her constautly, and she became so nervous that she insisted that her husband shoud get rid of the big lion He promised to do so as soun as possible. He told her he would take it to town in a few days and sell it. The second night it went to its hut outside with little opposi- tion, and next morning Lopez started to town to find a purchaser for his pet. He left the animal at home and told his wife to pay no attention to it, but go about her work as if it was not in the house.

Lopez had no difficulty in finding a pur- chaser for his lion and about five oclock in the eveniog started home pretty well in- toxicated with mescal and elated at the fact that he was to get a hundred pesos for his pet which he had estimated to be worth oaly about twenty-five. He arrived home after dark aod was surprieed to see no light as he approached the house, as he supposed that his wife would be ready with supper for him

He entered the place but it was so dark that he could discinguish nothing, and as he groped about he stumbled over something on the floor which gave way to his pressure. Stooping down he discovered that the object was a woman’s body and he felt that blood had flown over the floorin such quantities that the place seemed to be literal'y saturated He quickly struck a light and was horrified at the sight that met his gaze.

The young wife had been torn to pieces by the savage brute, which had evidently looked upon her as the cause of its disgrace. The struggle could not have been long, as the marks of the teeth showed that the lion had jumped upon her back and broken her neck at tue first bite. It then had torn the victim to shreds, the limbs being severed from the body and the floor covered with bleeding remains which had been dragged about and shaken as a cat treats a rat,

The animal after completing ite work, had fled to the mountains and has not siace been

“White Ribbon” Notes.

demoralization it has wrought in community where it has been tolerated have written the dvom of the liquor traffic, and whether it be in a day or a year or more, in God’s own time its destruction is sure.—Josephine R. Nichols.

Josephine Eltzholtz, M. D., of Hydera- bad, India, writes of the inspiration thar

land. She says that the Mohammedan Begums (Princesses) who, as a rule, are much more orthodox than the men, have an ides that there is brandy in all English medicines, and will take no prescription from a physician except for powders or pills. Whocan say that their caution is not commendable /

With the recurrence of la grippo comes the old prescription of whiakey. Dc. Geo F. Shrady, General Grant's physician, or being usked if whiskey was a good preven- tative of the disease auswered : ‘* Whiskey ia never good to ward off anything. food is the best means with which to ward off disease. To dese with whiskey is like adding shavings to the fice. There is no physical, mental or moral excuse for a man’s drinking whiskey as a preventative of disease.”

=

A Washington correspondent of the Ad- vance writes: ‘* The wite of a leading sen- ator says ; ‘ Never, since the days of Mrs, Hayes, has so little wine been taken at public official receptions as during the pre- sent administration, It is alsu true that very few official homes, during this ad- ministration, furnish wine ; and even when it ia furnished, the examples of the Hur- risons, Wanamakers, Millers, Proctors, Henstons, Hepburns, Dorchesters, Fosters, Morgans, aud many others has a_restrain- ing influence. Scarcely any of the men selected by President Harrison as his ad-

abstainer. President Harrison does not take wineatany of the receptions—even when only gentlemen are present, and Mrs. Harrison never, under any circumstances anywhere, takes wine.”’’

A philanthropic lady of the government

seen, Lopez hurried to the nearest neighbor and the terrible story soon spread,

of Tamboy, Russia, who owns several vil- lages, has caused all the liquor stores in her villages to be closed, and estabiished in

their stead tea houses, where peasants can

get meat, roils and ail the tea they can drink for a mere nominal sum. Oa Suaday she and her husband sp-nd the afternoon in these tea h uses, reading useful bowks and extracts from uewspapers to the guests. The peasants are greatly pleased. with this innovation The tea houses are patronized and drunkenness is almost unknown in those villages where they are established. As the scheme ws 4 suggestion of the novelist Tulstoi, the church authorities at once established a supervision over them, with the special object of preventing the benevolent lady and her husband from reading Tolstoi’s works, or any heretical books to the peasants on Sunday But the philanthrc pic couple do not miud this, and continue their good work undisturbed.

Mr. Moody, at Campbelton, England, said the other day :—*‘ If there is anything in your business that is wrong, you must give it up. ‘Oh,’ you might say, * but that would ruin me financially.’ No mat ter ; better be ruined financially than to go to the bar of God a disobedient child. If men could distil whiskey for the glory of God, then let them go on distilling whis- key ; let them send a thousand barrels of it tothe heathen, and some for the mis- sionaries, and then let them pray over the matter and see how they feel. They could sell whiskey to men who might drink them. selves to death, making their wives widows and their children fatherless, but it won't do to turn round and ssy now: ‘I will give this widow and these childrei so:ne money,’ and think that the transaction would square; nor could a man whio ill-treated his wife and family when he was the worse of drink make up for it by treating them kindly when he is sober.”’

No thoughtful person believes that we havo reached a settlement of the saloon question. In other countries as well as this the curse of the saloon is commanding the atten'ion of the best men of all parties in State and Church. It is not the discussion of an abs ract question of political science that interests them, but the actual existence of a fountain of c. ime and poverty in the heart of even the best com- munities, which grows worse as the years go on. In every country the political managers— the men who are in politica for the money in it, whose one aim is to hold and control the offices—and the saloon keepers are fast friends. In the United States the saloon is the domin- ant element in hoth political parties. The political managers will do nothiog to endanger the support of the liquor interests, They take their position not bec-use they have any rezard for the saloon keeper, or on account of a liking for intoxicating drinks, but because they co not believe there is any chance of party success unless they can command the pationage of the saloons. They are sure of the vote of the saloon and its influence; they have their price, and they are aure of them when the price is paid.—UVentral Adv.
