A Rumor Denied.

Hon. L. H. Davies has informed a G1'.iun1.ix reporter that there is no truth in the rumor that he intended removing to Toronto to practice law. This will be heard with pleasure by men of both parties. Mr. Davies has served his Island home as well as his party, with m8!'k0d distinction, bringing credit alike upon himself and upon his fellow Islanders. No doubt he would be gladly welcomed to a new home in any section of the Dom- inion and he could speedily secure in any of our larger cities a practice far more lucrative than this Island could ever afibrd him.

The Object of Their Being.

One would think from the tremendous struggle the liquor trade is making against the progress of the tem- perance movement that the rights to drink liquor was about the only thug in life worth living for. Sup- posing any other article in existence. of food or drink, was shown to be the cause of evil only one half as great as that due to drink, would any other but s thordhghly selfish and enslaved being require to be coerced into giving up its use for the benefit of his fellows? But touch the liquor trafiic, which as Gladstone says has done more harm than war, famine and pestilence, and behold an army rises to defend its, individual liberty is in danger and Parliaments stand trembling, unable to tell which side has the most votes.

The Minister of Foreign Affairs

An exchange says that the voice of the colonies would be unanimous for Lord Roacbery as the future minister of foreign affairs. He has always been ccnservative in his views on questions of foreign pol- icy, and he is an enthusiastic imperialist who has ever had warm sympathy with colonial aspirations. Only recently he announced that a Gladstonian victory would lead to no serious changes in the foreign policy of the country. In a recent address Lord laid spedal em- phasis upon the factthat the pol- icy of the Empire is now essentially a colonial policy vitally effecting the wel- fare of the more important colonies. Should ‘he be selected to preside over the foreign ofiice. and be given a free hand, Canada, Australia and South Africa will

have no cause to fear results. ———<o«o-——-—

Women in Pplitics.

Er-President and Mrs. Cleveland evi- dently havc no desire to see women tak- ing an active part in political warfare. Not long ago a number of New York women organized a political club which they desired to call the “Frances Cleve- land Influence Club.” A letter was duly written to Mrs. Cleveland notifying her of the fact that her name had been chosen to designate the association. Mrs. Cleve- land, like a dutiful wife, turned the mis- sive over to her husband, who at once wrote the president, regretting that Mrs. Cleveland could not consent to the use of her name as the title of the club. He states that their objection rests upon the sentiment that “the name now sacred in the home circle as wife and mother may well be spared in the organisation and operation of clubs created to exert politi- cal influence ” The Clevelands are right. Women's influence should be exerted from a higher plan than that of the ordi-

nary The Flower Show.

The 17th of August, the date of our Flower Show, is drawing near. We hope allwho take an interest in their flowers will do their utmost to make it a grand success. P. E. Island is rich in flora] beauty, and the August show can easily be made a magnificent exhibit. All that is needed is that the people interest them- selves and get the flowers ready. W's know just what will be said by many after the show is over. It will be that they had flowers which would have com- pared favorably with any shown, but they did notzthink it worth while to exhibit and are sorry for it. There are hundreds of men and women in town and country who are, well able to compete, and to make the show a success. We urge them to do so. This will be the first show of the kind held here, and is an experiment, but it is an experiment that cannot fail if the public take an interest in it. If auc-

A Lieutenant K_i_ll_ed by a Panther-

Thc latest Indian panther story is un- happily distinguished from i*s recent predecessors by its tragic sequel. Lieut. A. L. Harris of the third Lancers, Hid‘ erabad contingent, was following a tflils attended by two defaders, or sergeants of his regiment, in the long grass near Hin- goli, in the Deccan, when suddenly a huge panther sprang upon him at such close quarters that he had only time to fire a snap shot. The bullet failed to stop the brute, which seized its assailant by the forearm, and shaking him violently threw him to the ground. Hereupon Dafsdar Lal Mir Khan courageously seized the panther with both arms round the neck and pulled it off. The animal now turned upon his new foe, knocking him down and biting him severely on the left breast,

At thls point Dafmdar Mohammed Kassim

ran up armed with an iron spear, with which he struck the panther upon the back with such force that it let go its hold and turned upon the Dafadcr. Mo- hammed Kaasim, however, was prepared and received the brute with a tremendous blow upon the head, knocking out one eye. This was virtually the end of the battle. The animal had clearly had enough of fighting for that day, for he slunk away followed by Mohammed Kas- sim, till Lieut. Harris, shouting to his brave attendant to stand aside, brought down the wounded panther with a well directed rifle ball. Mr. Harris then care- fully cauterized his own wounds and those of his attendant Lal Mir Khan. After this, however, the party were, unfortun- ately, compelled to ride a distance of seventeen miles, and the next day Lieut Harris was seized with fever, followed by blood poisoning, to which he succumbed on the sixth day. Fortunately, his brave defender, though severely wounded, is re- ported to be progressing favorably.- London Daily Telegraph.

Seven Years Without a. Birthda .

A Scottish clergyman, who died nearly thirty years ago, Mr. Leishman, of Kin- ross, used to tell that he had once lived seven years without a birthday. The statement puzzled most who heard it.» They could see that if he had been born on the 29th of February, he would have no birthdty except in a leap year. But leap year comes once in four years, and this accounts for a gap of three years only; their first thought would, therefore, naturally be that the old man, who, in fact-, was fond of a harmless jest, was somehow jesting about the seven. There was, however, no joke or trick in his assertion.

At the present time there can be very few, if there are any, who have this tale to tell of themselves, for one who can tell it must have been born on the 29th day of Februry at least ninety-six years ago. Butaaimilarlineofmissingdstesisscon now to return; and indeed there are, no doubt, some readers who will have only one birthday to celebrate for nearly twenty years to come.

The solution of the puzzle is to be found in the fact, which does not appear to be widely known, that the year 1800 was not a leap year, and 1900 will not be. The February of the present year had 29 days, but in all the seven years interven- ing between 1896 and 1904, as well as in the three between 1892 and 1896, that month will have only twenty-eight.

Worth Trying.

If Queen Victoria carries out her ‘re- ported intention to revive an ancient pre- rcgative of -the crown and dispecr those peers of her realm - who have committed offences ‘against nionlity and decency, she will reduce the Marquis of Ailesbury to the level of shit. Bruce, the Duke of Manchester to that of a Mr. Mcntagu, Lord St.-Leonard to that of Mr. Sugden, and the Marquis of Huntley to that of Mr. Gordon. Their vices would be less imposing behind these names.

A W. C. T. U. Lecturer Coming.

The President of the World’s W; C T. U. has just issued a Special bulletin letter from the Rest Cottage, Evanston, asking the help of the temperance leaders of Canada andthe United States in opening a wide work for Miss Frances 11. Grifith, of Alabama. Miss Willard speaks of this southern champion of prohibition as “good and gifted, specially good in giving parliamentary drills, making conventions attractive, opening a question box and talking to children, and is both witty and wise on the platform.” Miss Grifilth has been a white ribboner since Miss Willard’s first visit to the south in 1881. She was then a teacher of high reputation, but finally gave that up to become. a member of the National W.C.T. U. lecture stall‘ in 1889. For the past three years she has lectured with great su.ccess in the south, and it is at Miss Willard's desire that she is now about tomakc a tour through the Northern States and Canada.

Tam O’Shan_t_e_r_ Gets There-

Sax FBAKCISCO, Ca1., July l3.—The long ocean race between the American ships Tam 0’Shsuter and Shenandoah from New York to San Francisco was ended this morning, when Tam O’Shanter won, consiiu in three hours ahead of the Shenandoah. Both were 11.1 days in

Shenandoah to. another trial of speed for the same stakes. .The Tum O’8hanter was loading at Baltimore, and ‘Captain Peabody put up 82,000 against‘ the $1,000 each pdt up by the others that he would beat them into San Francisco. In actual time Captain Peabody wins by about three hours, but old sailors say that two days is nearer the mark when the long run down Chesap;a‘ke bay is taken into consideration. Both ships carried all their canvas. As the run is quick after rounding the Horn, the Tam O'Shanter and Shenandoah were a week in company. During light winds the lat- ter would forge ahead, but when it began to blow the Tam O’Shanter would make up lost ground. The crews of both knew it was a race, and took as much interest in the result as the captains. In talking about the race, Captain Peabody said : “In light wind the Shensnclmli can run away from us, but with a good still‘ breeze my ship can sail around her.” The S. D. Carlton did not sail until two days after the Shenandoah and Tam 0’Shauter,.aad may yet win the race." ~
