VOL. 26.—NO. 3

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.

Notes From the Capital

Sirn,—The members of the Senate and House of Commons were dismissed yester- day at 4 p. m., amidst much display of shin- ing helmets, cannonading and military grandeur. As usual, the red chamber was

literally packed. Of the P. E, Island M. P.’s not even one was to be seen; all, even Mr. Welsh, had gone, It was remark- ed by many that the Island members were not present. Your Senators were present \then, as at the opening. | The Newfoundland delegates, consisting of P. R. Bowers, Esq., Journalist, D. G. Greene, Q. C., M. L. A., and D. Morrison, Esq., have come and gone. Whilst here they had several interviews with Cabinet | Ministers and statesmen of standing. They ‘return full of hope and ever grateful for courtesy and kindness received. The dele- | gates, while in Canada, addressed meetings ‘in Toronto and Hamilton, where great \sympathy was extended. The resolutions of sympathy passed by the Island Legisla- ture were published everywhere and ap- jproved, ‘The Hon. Sir John 8. D. Thomp- son, Minister of Justice, intertained the delegates to luncheon ere they left at the Rideau Club, and with the delegates were ‘seated the Right. Hon. Sir John A. Mac- donald, Premier, the Right Hon, Sir H. Langevin, M. P. W., Sir A. P. Caron, M. |M. & Defence, and Hon. Messrs, Dewd- hey and Haggart, proving the fact that the delegates have been very successful in their mission. Mr. Bowezs being a prominent anti-Confederave, was kept on a level plane by his co-delegate, Mr. ‘Morrison, who is a pronounced advocate ,of confederation, therefore the union of Newfoundland with Canada was kept in ‘the background; but, no doubt, will be up soon for future consideration, From many ‘facts gleaned, that colony will, ere long, ‘see the certain ills of isolation. From the ‘delegates much of the history of Newfound- ,land has been gleaned by enquiring minds ‘in the capital, as in other cities, notably | the undeveloped state of the colony, in the \face of the fact that no such field exists ‘elsewhere as in that colony at present, | where vast undeveloped regions are un- available, in fact almost entirely unknown to the majority of the colonists themselves. much good is predicted from the Commis- siou with which the delegates were entrust- ed. For instance, there are but few who ‘kuow the trade value between Canada and Newfoundland. After that of Great Britain and the United States, there is but one foreign country, viz : British West Indies, that consumes as much of our exports as does Newfoundland. Hence it is the fourth greatest market in the world for our ex- ports. It might almost be classed the third best, as the difference in favor of British West Indies was but $355,509 last year. Our season is somewhat late, weather

cool. The leaves are just beginning to ap- pear green. The seeding is well advanced throughout. Our provincial elections are

near at hand. Politics are very quiet in the Capital. [tis not really known if Mr. Bronson will be opposed. Many Conser- vatives in the Dominion Goy’t are support- ing Bronson, who in turn supports Mowatt, in the Provincial Government. Principle seems to guide the people here, and not party names. Meredith as yet has no man in the field. For the Capital, it is true, an Equal Righter (so-called) is spcken of, and also a labor candidate, both of which have been Conservatives, but none can be found to champion Meredith’s anti-free school and aati-French platform.

Excursionists for Vancouver.

The St. John Sun says:—An excursion party from P. E. Island passed through

q|here yesterday afternoon on the C. P. R.

for Vancouver. The party were provided with a second-class sleeper, which met them at Point du Chene, and in which they will ride without change to Vancouver. The car is one of the Canadian Pacific’s espe- cially fitted up excursion sleepers. All the berths were supplied with good bedding, and the car contained several tables—in fact, everything enjoyed by the first-class passengers on the leading roads of America. The party numbered 32, and included John Harrington and family (five in number) of Summerside: the Woolner family (nine in

(three in number) of Grand River, Lot 14; Thomas Brazil of Summerside, Mr. Suther- land of Clifton, and W. H. Fraser, con- tractor, of Charlottetown, and family Charles S. Philps, traveling passenger agent of the Canadian Pacific for the mari- time provinces, arranged this excursion for the Island party, and he accompanies them from Point du Chene to Montreal. Several gentlemen of the party expressed them- selves delighted with the arrangements made for their comfort.

The man who is credited with the original device and manufacture of the revolver pistol, Benjamin Darling, died recently at Woonsocket, R. 1., at the age of 82 years, without having experienced any of the sub- stantial rewards the invention brought to others.

It is a curious fact that the giants rarely exceed the age of 40 or 45, and few of them ever show signs of much intellectual ca- pacity. They are, asa rule, good-tempered indolent and placid; their opposite ex- tremes, the dwarfs, being irritable, active, clever and ill-tempered.

Naja, daughter of the Russian painter, Morasow, is soon to be married, and will wear one of the most marvellous bridal dresses ever seen. Her father’s friends and fellow artists have each painted an allegor- ical composition on the dress, which, when the beautiful owner is inside of it, will be a perfect walking art gallery.

The Kingston, Ont., Chancery Court mace a strong decision in an alimony case the other day.

At the end of the services at the Presby- terian church at Hannibal, on a recent ‘Sunday, a couple stepped out from one of the pews at a signal from the preacher, and were married in presence of the astonished audience.

In some experiments lately made in England to test the merit of electric weld- ing, a 14-inch iron bar was welded both by means of electricity and by hand.

The electric weld, however, showed cracks when bent cold at an angle of 66° whereas the hand made joint stood 136° of bend.

Fletcher Kirby, of Carroll County, Ark., is under arrest and confesses to the murder for robbery of an old man named Rogers. Kirby says the job was put up by another man, with whom heshared the spoils. The unique part of Kirby’s statement is that after he shot the victun he thought of kul- ing himself, but the dying man besouyht ‘him to live and get forgiveness. Kirby ithen asked him to pray for him, which he dil.
