The Lord in Heaven knows I would wipe the earth with him so that the angels would not know him next morning.’’ The lecturer claimed .that Prin- cipal Grant. had uttered many ““‘bald-headed lies and his remarks are enough to cause a cross-eyed cat to leave its home.’’ | Hestated that the W. C. T. U. | was the ‘‘ Women’s Continuous Tor- | menting Union.’’ In no gentle terms he scored the Principal again for his pro-Boer ut- |terances of a year ago and his| _words denouncing Canada for send- | convenizg parliament. Mr. Hector | said that he had just returned from | | South Africa and knew Kruger bet-| ter than Principal Grant did. He) |said : ‘** Kruger isa hypocrite who!
