Theodore Roosevelt’s second chapter «1 the career of Cromwell deala with th ‘Long Parliament and the Civil War.’

[It contsios Colonel Kooseveli’s acu analys’s of the early batiles of the C War, the personality of the troops, the u ‘© shock tactics,” the importa’ | cavalry and the emall relative lofluence he musketeere. There is aleo an inter

esticg comparison between the Bag)! Civil War and the American Civil War The ‘llustration is on the same elaborate scale as that of the January insialmest. {t represents the best work of Seymou: Lucas, Yohn, Sheppereon, Frank Craig and Peixotto.

The opening installment of “Tommy and Grizel,” Mr. Barrie’s great serial, has been received with enthusiastic praise

' The careful workmanship, in striking con- trast :o many popular novels whica are rapidly produced, has beea widely noticed, and the enticing charm of the story itself has mastered the widest audience. In thie instalment, Grizel and Thrums re- appear with some of the amusing incidents of the celebrated Tommy’s return to his native village.

Mejor T. Bentley Mott, laie adjatant- general of the departuent oi Havaae, describes “The Social Life of Havana-” He corrects many false imprersions in re- gard to what society is in that eapital. The gaiety, dignity and refinement of what is best in Havana social life are grapbically pictured —the dances, the mnusic, the beauty of Cuban women.

“The Problems of a Pacific Cable, by Herbert Maws Webb, is another article of importance in our colonial relatiens, and | especially so at this time when several | bills to lay a Pacific cable are before Coa | gress. Mr. Webb is an electrical expert who has taken part in several cable ex- peditions. He describes briefly all ofthe proposed routes acrossthe Pacific, and discusses the difficulties which are likely to be met with and the conditions cf suc- cese.

The fiction includes a tale of the recon- struction period in middle Georgis, by | entitled ‘* Miss Irene,” and a powerful story by William Allen White, entitled “ The Mercy of Death,” which has todo with the career of a western senator in Washington.

NOTES AND COMMENTS

eS ———

| —Lbe Mail aod Empire remarks that

on? of the good features of the Sherbrooke

election ‘as the testimony it affords of the | liberality of so mwaany French Canad iane. Tarie’s appeal on racial grounds, his | heated and angry opposition to the En-

glish-speaking came’ to ' nothing.

~The hontrea] Gazatie remarks that’

unless the signs are wrong some people in Sherbroeke took the machiue’s money and then voted for McIntosh. An amend ment to the law to secure the punishment of what the organs call “ treachery” would seem to be needed if the Laurier Government is to survive the e!+ction or- deal.

—Manitoba’s treasury has been left in an awfal condition by the Greenway gov- ernment. Jn the first place, there is nothing there, and $90,485 has been over- drawn from the banxs. Then there are unpaid accounts aggregating $136,520. This makes a deficiency of $227,0'5. In addition, secret railway bonuses bave been granted amounting to $148,750, acd the half-yearly subsidy paii on January 1, for the -xpenses of the present year, has been encroached upen.

Beruiy, January 30.—The latest in- fomation from South Africais unfavor-

ably commented upon by the German papers, The National Zeitang says: “The

British position aroucd Ladysmith is now untenable. Either Lord Roberts must await reiaforcemests or remove his strat - egic cemtre elsewhere, abandoning Lady~ emith.

The Lokal Anzeiger says: “The defeat at Spion Kop is likely to beeome of decisive importance for the whole war.”

The Kru Faz Zeitung says: ‘‘[t requires a good pieceof British conceit siill to believe in an approximately favoradle issue of the war, bat whom the Goda wou'd destroy they firet meke mad.”

The Vossiche Zeitung says: “The best prepared and most carefully — Britieh operations during the war has now end- ed incomplete fiasco. What is there now to prop up the sinking prestige of ‘world power.”

“He laughs ‘best weo laughs jast.” If you take Hood’s Sarssparilla you may laugh first, ‘ast and all the time, for It will make you well.

Canapa Wixs.—The postponed debate on“ Waich is the best country to live in, Canada or the Ustted Staces ?” was held in Bethel Hall on Monday night last. The adage thac ** A yood thing im- proves by keeping ” proved especially true on this occasion, Tbe epeakers om the ‘United States” side were Cnas. Rankin, and Captain and Ernest Lund. On the “Canadian ” side were Chas, Luad, (cap- tain), and R. Westaway Chandler, who, in patriotic speeches ably showed the advan- tages Canada beld over the United Statee. All the speakers were listened to atien- tively, and warmly applauded as they sat dewn. The chair wae ably filled by Miss Gertrude Jenkins, of Exeelsior Lodge. On the vote being taken Canada carried the day, by a sweeping mejority. Another debate will soon be held there, of which the readers of Toe Examiner shajl receive due notice.

The Conservative leaders here are ac- tive in putting their forces in shape, The million and a half that we were told as settled npon eure; the hypocrisy on the temperance question, and the fearful debt of over a million including the Hills-

borough bridge, has caused a big reaction, |

which Lieutenante Quion and McKenzie with corrapt whiskey cannot counteract.

No preaents of coils of barbed wire,

cheap ulstera or cheap dresses for the Iadies have as yet appeared for the present campaign. But Suaper- vieor Dickiesen hae, Repairs on the

bridge, piles wanted, new roads to be opened, are partof his canvass, as usual before an eleetion, so it can’t be far off. But Dickieson will be watched and duly reported.

It is the intention to entertain our faith- ful and energetic citizen, A. C. Shaw, Esq , shortly at asupper and present him with an address. Mr. Skaw has at no little loss of time, étc,, worked bard tor public improvements here.
