One evening last week, while a young man named Graton, employed by the Scottish American Phosphate Mining Co., in the town- ship of Portiana, Ontario, was attempting to thaw out some dynamite cartridges, one of them exploded, throwing him through the roof of the bailding and landing the body one hundred feet from where the accident oc- currod. When picked up life was extinct.

a ComeLarnt is made by the French-Canadian press that the poetic names which the early discoverers gave to the mountains, lakes and rivers of the Northwest are made vulgar by the English translation. Le Monde thinks that the Englishman who first called *‘la Montagre de Pierre,” by the name “Stoney Mountain,” is a mxte to the Frenchman who, the other day, rendered ‘‘ man-of-war” into **homme de guerre.” —_—»——— {t is beyond all doubt that ‘‘Myrtle Navy’ is the favorite tobacco with the amokers of Canada. They obtain more enjoyment from it than from any other tobacco made, and those of them who have used it long enough to tests its merits never abandon it for any other brand. The reason of this preference is that the ‘‘Myrtle Navy” is made of the very finest leaf which ‘is grown and that in every process of its manufacture the most vigilant cesre is exercised to proserve the genuine aroma of the leaf.

The Government to-day indicated through a Ministerial utterance that they expect to fall on the Irish question. The utterance was made by Morley, Chief Secretary for Ireland in an address at a _ confer- ence of Liberal delegates here _ to- day. Morley was ‘disgussing the Irish situation. He denounced Lord Ran- doiph Churchili’s flagitionus attempt to stir up civil war in Ulster, and urged the Liberals to do their utmost to place their party in a state of complete preparation for a general election; for, said the speaker, the Covernment is now face to face with the Irish difficulty and will pro- bably be compelled to make an early appeal to the country.
