Mr. Charlton moved a resolution pro- posing that the Canadian section at Chicago World's Fair should be closed on Sunday jp accordance with the British example

Mr. McMullen supported the res»luation and Mr. Amyotupp se i iton the ground that Parliament had nw right to foree its views gs to Sabbath observance apon all persons who desired to visit Canada's exhibition at the Chie»go fair.

Mr. McLean, of York, thought that the patter should be left open, and Mr. Millis, of Annapolis, thought that Osnadians should endeavor to show the Americans a

god example in the matter of Sabbath observance. Hon, Mr. Foster asked the House to

rememb.r that the Can dian Government did not manage the Chicago Exhibition, and, therefore, the Sunday closing question of the Canadian section would not effect the mitter in any practical way or give the laborers any rest. He thought that there

wis much to be said from the Christion point of view in favor of keeping the Exhibition open op Sundays. England opened her art

gileries and museems t» her people on Sundays. Those who chose to visit the World's Pair on Sundays, should be free to do so. The Canadian exhibits were dis- payed with those of other countries, and could not be separated All that the Gov- erament vould do to restrict Sunday work in connection with the Chicago Fair wou!d be done.

Mr. Scriver was surprised to hear the Misister of Finance speaking in favor of the cultivation of the artistic and aesthetic in preference to the religious.

De. Christie favored the resolution.

Hon. Mr. Daly moved the adjournment of the debate.

Mr. Chariton characterized the course of those who favored the adjournmeat as mesking and cowardly.

The Speaker asked Mr. Charlton to with- draw those words, and the latter did so.

Alter some further discussion, the House divided on the mvtion to adjourn, which was carried by 76 to 31 against.

An English syndicate has just purchased for half a million dollars, the controlling interest in the Ottawa Gas Company, and the Ortawa Electric Light Company, and Will amalgamate the two concerns, The company now has 4 bill before Parliament Wempower it te buy out all the vas and elesiric ligh' c mpanies in Canada,

The Races at the Rink

BREEN AND M COKMICK FORM

oMOow CP IN GOOD THe attendance at the Hillsborough a — i< Ww - geod, considering the * condiiion of the streets and the heavy downpour of rain. Those who were present witnessed a fine exhibition of skat- ing, and those who remained away missed a rare treat. Owing tothe mild weather of the past few days, the ice was not in the best possible condition for making fast time. But nvtwithstanding this fact, and the additional fact that it took fifteen rounds of the track to make a mile, the time in each was excellent, showing that both McCorntick and Breen were skat ing for all there was in them,

fhe men emerged jfrom their dreasing rooms about a quarter after eight o'clock. McUormick was the first to appear, and was followed a minute or so later by Breen Both were received with applause. Me- Cormick wore dark stockings, knickers and cap, With white sweater. Breen wore bive throughoat.

After a few preliminary turns about the Rink, the first eveut on the programme was called, viz., the one-mile race. The men were started from opposite sides of the R nk, Breen from the east’ and McCormick from the west. At the word *‘go” from veferee Ings both men took the ice almost simultaneously. Along the sides they sped with long, graceful strokes, and around the corners they went without any very perceptible diminution of their speed. For five or six laps their relative positions remained unchanged; now McCormick would have an advantage of a few feet, and a moment later Breen would havea similar advantage, After the sixth lap, however, McCormick began to gain slowly and steadily on his opponent, naintainiug his advantage for the remainder cf the race, coming in the winner by about twelve feet in the good time of 3 14.

After ap intermission of about half an vour, the five-mile race was called. Ag iu he first event, both men got off well to gether, skating a clean, easy stroke. There was no change in the relative positions of the men during the first mile. In the twenty-second lap, however. Breen put on & magnificent burst of speed, and moved up «few yards nearer to his game competitor, who was ekatiog in splendid form. This order was maintained until the forty-fith lap was entered apou, when the pace of each skater was imcreased and for the remainder of the race there was consider- sble spurting. Breen, however, continued to gain steadily, and despite all McCormick's efforts he soou had a lead of abcut a quar- er of a lap, which he held for the remain-

der of the race, winning in 17.00j.

The third race was between Breen and Fred Rattray, of Charlottetown, the latter having a handicap of half a lap. Breeu started from the western side of the rink, and Rattray from the easterr. Rattray held his own for about two laps, when Breen epurted and soon overtuok and passed him, coming in an easy winner by three-quarters of a lap, in 2.203. Rattray

race

was in no cendition to race with a man like

Breen, and he showed considerable pluck in facing him. Besides, his skates were not at al) suitable for racing.

The skating of both Breen and McCormick was much admired. Of the two, McCormick is the more graceful skater, but Breen, who is much the younger man, has the greatest etay- ing powers. Last night Breen never left the ice, skating steadily from a quarter after eight until after his race with Rattray, which broaght the proceedings to a close, and never seemed to mind the work the least bit.

Daring the evening excellent music was furnished by the Citizens Band.

The men have agrecd to stay over and skate two or three races to-night, Everyone should see them,

called, reliable ond respectable men, who al i swore that they either had net been in my place at all,or if they had,they had been in the ordinary epen_bar, properly constructed, and the case was iin wed iately 18% 1 was, however, deter- mined not to létthe matter deop, as 1 had made up my mind I would find out who | Utiicer Carter to lay tne information. I therefore liastructed My “Avtorney, Mr. Arthur Peters, to | take proceedings against Onticer Carter for mali- | cious proseeattun, unless the authorities paid the expenses I had been put to and gave me Lhe name ot the invormer who iastigated Officer Carter to | take proceedings against me. Aftera great deal jot bagging with the euthorities, to avoid veing }sued they consented to pay and have paid my Jeapenses, and have handed me an anonymous letter addressed “* Marshal Cameron,” which let-

informstion they: had against me vo ground even a suspicion that I had offended. I trust that thi> w.li be # lessuw to the police that they canaot, on such information as this, haui up time and again persons whe are perfectly inpoceat, and pul them to the expense, annoyance and inconvenience of appearing efere the Court.
