Ayoruer IstanperR Hearp From. —The Philadelphia Jtem says : “John Shay, a provincial fighter, chal- lenges Charley Mitchell, the Britisher to fight him for any part of $15,000. Shay says he has fought a number of battles in the Canadian provinces, and is confident he can whip Mitchell. He is 28 years old, is 5 feet 8 inches tall, and weighs 185 pounds. He is a man of remarkable physical development, but no one seems to know much about him. He came from the provinces, and will go to England on a bark, of which he is one of the crew ”’ The Shay referred to by the /tem isa Charlottetonian, and is known in this city as ‘* Buckey” Shea. He has been away from the Island for several years. He would make a sorry exhibition of himself with Mitchell, —or any other pugilist. densities Our Scuoots.—St. Peter’s Schools re- opened to-day, vith a goodly number of pupils—some of the scholars have not yet returned from the country, so there were a few vacant seats. Several boys are ex- pected to matriculate at King’s College, Windsor, or other universities, at the end of the year, and are formed into a special class for that purpose. We understand that both the boys and girls’ schools will be drilled systematically twice a week. This seems Lo us very commendable, as tco lit tle attention has been given, in this city, in times past, to the bodily exercise of children. Mr, E.J. Hodgson will con- tinue his English H’story and General Information classes, and Rev. Fred. E. J. Lloyd takes classes in English Literature and Singing. Inthe Girls’ School, there are still a few vacancies. The advanced classes of girls will be taught Latin and Al- webra by the Rev. J. Simpson. We are pleased to tind the schools in such a flour- ishing condition, and hope that as good work will be done in them this year as last. A considerable addition to the number of scholars in attendance at the public schools was observable to-day. In this connection, we cannot refrain from ex- preasing the hope that the mistake of this year will not be repeated.

News of the Great Strike. Lonpon, Sept. 1, : On Saturday the employees of Yairow & The dock laborers on strike number 110,000, and as the immediate consequence of their cessation 20,000 stevedores, 6,000 lightmen, *20,000 clerks and nearly 5,000 grain workers and labor- ers are compulsorily idle. The Melbourne Trades Council, representing all branches of labor, has called a mass meeting for Monday to raise funds for the London strikers. The directors of the dock com- panies have absolutely declined to make any concessions beyond these already offer- ed. The council of strikers held a meeting last evening and after a long discussion on the situation it was decided to continue the strike. A monster meeting of the strikers was held at Hyde Park this after- noon. Burns and other labor leaders made speeches. Resolutions stating that the men would continue the strike until their ae- mands are fully conceded were uaanimous- ly adopted. Itis estimated that 250,000 persons took part in the demunstration. The immense crowd dispersed in an orderly manner. The Economist predicts disas- trous results for the strikers if they obtain the sixpence rate with the four hours mini- mum, and says that the numberof of men seeking work at docks will largely increase. The company will employ more permanent men and ayai] themselves of fewer casual employes, and only a few will be benefit- ted. The lot of the many will be harder than ever. The law of the survival of the tittest will be exemplified by the strike, the wide-reaching consequences of which will be unprecedented in London’s history. The riot insurance rate advancing, the dock directors, having refused to negotiate ex- cept with the old dockmen, Burns declared against further interviews. Baseball News. St. Joun, Sept. 1. Tke Socials returned from Fredericton on Saturday evening, where they were beaten 13to 9. E. H. Allen, a Fredericton man, was umpire, and he displayed total ignorance of the game. Kelly pitched for the Socials and Underwood for the home team. Moncron, Sept. 1. Moncton won another game yesterday, this time from the St. John’s, the game was called at the end of the seventh inning on account of darkness, the visitors having had their eighth score, 12 to 10.

The commander of the American revenue cutter took away the Juniata’s sealskins and arms, and gave a sealed letter of instructions to proceed to Sitka asa prize. No prize crew was put on board. The Indians were told not to mind going to Sitka, as they would find the Pathfinder, Minnie and Black Diamond all there and weuld not be lonely. As soon as the Rush was out of sight the Juniata made for Victoria. New Indian Superintendent. Orrawa, Sept. 1. It is believed that William McGirr will be appointed Indian Superintendent for British Columbia at a salary of three thou- sand dollars a year. Another Break. Orrawa, Sept. 1.
