Will that War-Cloud_Grow? :_.——— Bsitiix, April 1.—~An uneasy feeling prevails throughout Germany that the massing of troops on the Austrian frontier, the bestowal of the Order of St. Andrew on President Carnot and the resumption of Russian intrigues in the Balkan peninsula are symptoms which, taken in connection I ith each other, amount to a Russian demonstration of hostility to the German Empire. The Berlin Bourse is sensibly affected by the prevalence of this feeling. Prince Ferdinand’: commission as Gov- ernor of Rouinelia expires on April 5, when Turkey can refuse to renominate him, but is not likely to do so while Stambulolf is premier. This probably explains the attempt on the latter's life, as is death would lmvc enabled Russia to interfere. —~———1 Drinking of Ether. Holy Week has brought. at any iuite, one absolute novelty, the discovery by the Times that the true source of Ire- land's woes is the drinkiu=_; of ether. In a very elaborate narrative it describe; 5 malady, the existence of which nobody heretofore has suspected, illlil gives figures that are positively appalling. if they do. in fact. correctly denote the nunfov.-r of ether drinkers. Hon lilt‘_\' .o-e olmtined does not clearly appeznz It is lmppily only one portion of Irelztwl which suffers from this vice. the nortli-or-.st, but there we hear of 8% drinkers in Drsp- rsrowvi out of a total population ~ :' 9,500, with many other towns where t1.c proportion, if less, is still very great. This, at any rate, is an evil for s-h'i_c‘li Home Rule: is no remedy.

J. C. Wriglit, a Plymouth minister. The other evening he was tracing the gradual change in Wesley’s opinions and refusing the claims of the high church party. It reminded him, he said, of the story of a showman who was travelling in the north of Eng- land, and who announced John Wesley’s skull among his exhibits. A Methodist woman visiting the show expressed ii doubt as to its genuineness on the mad that it wsssosmall. “I knows it's small, “ replied the showman, “ but you see it’s John Wesley’s skull when he was a boy. “ Accordingly when they were told that John \Vesley believed in upostolical succession and baptismal rs-generation. they should remember that that was John Wesley’s skull when lie wrzs >1 boy.-~-[Pall Mall Budget. Local Option formifiales London, March 21 (Special Corn .-.pond- ence).—A bill has been introduced in Parliament by Mr. Rowlavds providing for the application of the local popular veto to the liquor trafic in Wales. The saloon may be prohibited upon a two- thirds alllrmstive vote. The bill has to second reading by a vote of 185 to 179. Monday evening a large and enthusiastic meetingwas held in Exeter Hall in support of the measure. The " Morning Advertiser,” a liquor organ, is calling for the suppression by Parliament of the ether-drinking habit in Ireland. The Judicial Committee of our House of Lords, our highest court of law, have decided in the important case of Sharp vs. Wakefield that the licensing judges have is discretionary power to refuse to renew a license for the sale of liquor on the ground that there is no longer It nec- essity for a licensed house in the neigh- borhood. This is a. big point gained over the brewers. Another example of the advancing sentiment against the liquor trallic is shown in the defeat of the Liber- al" candidate Beale, a brewer of Aston. by 3,000 majority. Beale had been especially nominated to catch the publicau vote. Twenty-fit] of the 43 total abstinence mayors of England and Wales were pres- ent at the Mansion House Friday zit a temperance meeting presided over by the Lord Mvyor of London. mt-Z Death in March Winds Poets and novelists go into esstacics over what they romsuticailly call " beau- tiful sprin ,” and “geiitlc sprin§.:.‘"' and while, no oubt, every one is glad to see winter rrlease its icy‘ gm.-p. “ beautiful spring” is, after all. one of thy most deadly seasons of the yczir.
