ESTEEMED EXCHANGES.

Montreal Witnees: It is fair to assume that the appointment at St. Paul’s Cache- dral of a national service of ‘humble sup- plication for a blessing om our arms’ is meant as a suggestion to a)) Christians and all cburebes throughowt the empire. Certainly, without being aeked by any one, Christians who are interested in events which are costing us al) so dear will everywhere of their own accord betake themeelves to prayer, acknowledgment of tbe nation’s faults and humble enquiry’ as ty whereby our empire bas earned the reverses and gaineayings to which it is being subjected a. presenteand the bumilia- tion wf vemy engaged in kilhing fellow iPur such ooc+ons, however, pub- lic wed ucited action is-elways felt to be

in order. Just as _ personal af-' faire form the material of private devotions and sociai concerns are

the eubject of public devotions, 0 solici- tude for nationel affairs finds its vatural expreseion in netigaal devotion. We are askedito give voicejto.a general desire for seme concensus, in this amatter., The most effective conceasue, however,is that which

is spootaneour, ava vo doubt every church |

will of ts own accord take steps to allow fit expreesion tothe Christian people’s truest feelings.

Edwina Grey was a charming Mary Hope and infused life and epirit into her acting, which was recogaized in an unmistakable manner, and ehe fully deserved the ap- plauee given.

Tstawpur’s Death ABroaD.—A native of this province, now {a resident of | Marsifield, Oregon, writing under date of j December 17th, gives some important {information regarding the death of an ‘Islander named Frank Thomas, in Port- land, Oregon. It “occurred last August He was employed by the Portland Genera! Klectric Co. Death was caused by alive wire. It appears that the company in- sures each of ite employes for $1,000. and thatd’rank Thomas was insured. The insurance goes. to the Company if vo heirs are found, if be bas relatives on the Is~ Jand the insurance would no doubt benefit them. The man was heavy-set, and bad ared complexion. His age is not sta‘ed. (All Iskand papers please copy.]
