We were told this morning we would be in Winnipeg early, so, as we were rather tired of picnicing, we concluded to wait for breakfast till we got to Winnipeg.

Around Portage la Prairie the farms look _ splendid. It is itself a very nice looking town. A lacrosse g team came out from Winnipeg, and a great number of first-class passengers got off there. There were several hotel cabs there to meet them. Portage is a busy place, evidently, and ambitious, too. The coun- try here, not far from Brandon, is not so flat. The gentle elévations, though they vary the prospect, do not bound the view. BOX. There is plenty of life around here. At one station we saw a great number of cattle, . : ; Sample at the last one a mowing machine, some other agricultural machinery and some bicycles. Near almost all the stations is a church and a school, and we passed what somevoue said was a ‘‘city of the dead,” See pees. —SECURED IN USING— SS IS THE REPORT OF THE NTED.—A skilful Matr W* first of October next.

The young folks have _been gathering some prairie flowers when- ‘ever we stop for a few minutes. They are , very pretty—roses, wild sage, the com- -monest bluebells and yellow asters of sev- ‘eral kinds. We came into Brandon just at sun-down. The sunset was not so brilliant as ‘I expected, though the effect was very fine. There was a great crowd on the platform at 'Branon. All the men Zin the town fand a good many from the country must come to meet the outcoming train. So far we have seen no one from the Island, though a good many of our travelling companions have recognized friends. It looks odd to eastern people to see so few barns. They say they have no use for them as far as storing grain is concerned. We were wakened up before sunrise this morning by a noisy crowd who came on board, bound for Regina. One of them, a big fat fellow, acted like a good circus clown, but before sunrise foolery is not appreciated by sleepy people. We had some singing last night which attracted a rather noisy crowd from the smoking car. One young fellow had atin whistle which did not add much to the harmony, though ‘he played it very well. By and by the brakesman came along with his lantern and ‘gat down to join in the chorus. The car is ‘not light enough to make reading easy at ‘night, but anyway one gets tired of reading ‘on the train. ‘Then the upper berths shade 'the seats. Well, one advantage of being ‘roused at four o’clock in the morning is that lyou see the sun rise. Sunrise on the ‘prairie, like sunrise on the water, is well Tt was a little cloudy which e it more beautiful. The lord of day ‘appeared as a ball of brightest gold. Ina ‘few moments some invisible attendants were ready with a curtain of cloud which + was soon withdrawn, having been burnish- ed in the interval. Very soon the sky was ue. It rained last night as we and when we got to Moosejaw we found they had hada hailstorm. The hail was lying still along the platforms on the shady side. Perley Walsh, whom we saw at the station, gathered a great handful of it and brought it to us We -mad Bluff, we saw lovely fields of grain, the} were pleased to meet our young friend. There was a fearful thunder. storm there two or three nights ago, and three people were killed in one huuse—a bible class teacher, a minister’s daughter, and another. There were a number of In- dians there selling buffalo hortis. At sey- eral places we saw such piles vf buffalo bones; but of the live buffalo himself we saw never a sign. The only animals to be seen arethe prairie chicken, and a number of gophers. I was not ducky enough to see either, The country west of Moosejaw is dreary enough fur anything. The grass is brown. There are scarcely any settlement. Now. and again we see a little lake with a white alkaline border. The ground is covered in many places with a greyish plant. One would need ‘a good deal of courage to settle here. .We met a carload of wild ponies, being taken from one reservation to another. They are pretty creatures. As-we go further west we pass white alkaline patches that look as if they had been®the bottoms of lakes. I noticed on a little river a wild. duck, and near the station there are numbers of swal- lows. . At the stations all along one sees the mounted police, though I could not make out what they were doing. They are handsome fellows, and keep their uniforms in spledid order. I wonder if they have — much else todo. At a lonely house, near the western border of this desert, a woman came out and got a parcel of Century Mag- azines and some newspapers. I can fancy how fervent her blessitigs would be for the good Samaritan who sent them. She lived * in a nice little brown house surrounded by a large garden. Perhaps it was not s0 lonely as it looked. J ne Lost at Sea. ‘Toe ExamINer’s correspondent at Georgetown writes :—‘* The friends of Mrs. Capt. John McDonald, of this town, are grieved to learn of ,the death of her son Charles. He was drowned while on a five months’ voyage from New York to’ Yoko- hama, in the barque Hamburg, of which he was first officer. She sailed from New York on the 10th of February, and on the 8th of May he was washed overboard while it was blowing a hard gale, and nothing could be done forhim. _ The vessel arrived in Yokohama about the 20th July, and the sad news came yesterday in a letter to his brother-in-law, Conductor Hibbett, from the captain. Charles was in the prime of young manhood, aged twenty-six years, unassuming, upright, and one of whom his friends were especially fond, and whose prospects were very bright. He was home within the last year, and left to fill this position on the Hamburg, one of the largest ships sailing from this continent. His bereaved mother and family have the most sincere sympathy of their friends in their sorrow.” THE EXAMINER unites in sym- pathy for her on account of her great loss. —_————\+ 44 Obituary. Passed peacefully to rest on the 12th August, 1890, at her residence, Lot 29, Mar- garet E. Maloney, late of Halifax, N. S., re- lict of the late Robert Logan, in the 66th year of her age. Deceased was known for her un- assuming and gentle manner, and was-kind to the sick and afflicted. At many a sick bed her ministering hand was to be found: giving words of encouragement; her presence in our midst will be very much missed. She was a kind wife and an affectionate mother. Her family has the sympathy of their many friends in their sad bereavement. Through all pains at times she did smile, A smile of Heavenly birth, Aud when the angels called her home She smiled farewell to earth. Heaven retains now our treasure, Earth the lonely casket keeps, And the sunbeam loves to linger Where our sainted mother sleeps. (Halifax papers please copy.) oe oI News Notes.
