Ir is not surprising that there was a large audierce at the commencement ex~ ercises of last evening, notwithelanding che petty tax of ten cents per head imposed on all those who were present. The entertain- ment was, we well worth the money. Though Prof. Earle had charge of the singing classes for only a few weeks, the choruses rendered were really well done and gave evidence of abundance of musical talent on the part of the pupils as well as of the rare ability of the professor, The essays were carefully written and well read and the epeeches for the most par felicitous. Weare pleased to note that Dr. Andereon, while accepting his own meed ef the valedictorian’s thanks, generous< ly acknowledges the valuable services yO the institution rendered by the other professors. His remarks upon the advisa- bility of taking time at the beginning of life to obtain a thorough mental training, upon the importauce of self-confidence and self-reliance as distinguished from conceit and upon the necessity for the continued exercise of energy in a saccessful career were excelient, and we trust that they will be marked and inwardly digested by the youth to whom they were addressed. As might have deen expected stress was laid must, admi’, upon the requirement of a new and improved college _ building. The necessity of enlarged space and better ventilation was pointed out; and under the circumstances of the case there was a world of meaning in Dr. Anderson’s quotation of the proverb, ‘‘ Hope deferred maketh the heart sick.” The pupils have paid fees for years past upon the express understanding that a building should be erected. Money was borrowed under the Temporary Loans Act, and when it was spent in other directions, an act of the Leg- islature was passed authorizing the sale of debentures (for the redemption of which the fees paid by the pupils were to form a sinking fand) in order thatthe money needed for the erection of the building might be obtained. In view of these facts the Premier might, we think, have been more explicit than he waa when adverting, jn the course of his genera)ly acceptable remerks, to the erection of a new Prince of Wales College building. There is no obstacle in the way of the immediate pro- secu tion of this work,—except the sense of shame which the Leader of the Government must feel concerning the Asylum bungle, and the impropriety of providing for the ecmfort of those who are in health and strecgth while our helpless and unforturs ate fellow citizens, afflicted with diseases of the mind, are compelled to live in an overcrowded hospital.

To Sir Charles Tuppers questions he declared more em-~ pbatically than ever that the government bad no information to give. Sir Wilfrid will not say when the vote will be taken. He will not say whether the government will acton the result of the vote. He will not say’'what result he will consider to be a mandate from the peopleto act. It may please the temperance people and the prohibition organizers to learn from Sir Wilfrid that they are perfectly satisfied with the situation. Sir Wilfrid says they have not asked the government to take action on the vote if it be favorable. They have not asked that a majority vote should be pronounced beforehand to be sufficient. On the contrary, they are per- fectly willing to leave all to be settled after. This is certainly very accommodating on the part of the pro~ hibitionists and is very convenient for the government. But the Premier might have remembered that the plebiscite 1s not @ enggestion of the temperance people at all. They never asked for it, and if they do not make any demande at this stage it is be- cause they refused to accept any responsi« | bility in the premises. ———-—_ 0+ @+ ESTEEMED EXCHANGES. Ottawa Citizen: The tramp who was a!-~ ways iooking for work and a!ways afraid that he would find it had something in common with the Spanish and Amer can fleets. Mail and Empire: Sir L,H. Davies’s visit to England, to argue that the German and Belgian treaties did not interfere with the working of the Laurier Government’s preferential trade resojutions of 1897, cost the country $1,670. It wasa lot to pay to find out how much Sir L. H. Davies did not know. Ma‘l and Empire: The Laurier Govern~ mcot has included cider in the list ot liquids respecting the prohibition of which we are to vote in the plebiscite. There is a@ purpose inthis. Whois going to vote to prohibit the farmer squeezing his apples and drinking the liquid thus pro- duced? Sir W. Laurier is hum bugying the temperance people. SQ A OT ED oe LETTER FROM DR. ANDERSON. Dear Sir ;—I amex e2lir gly sory that the pleasure and comfort of the friends of the Prince of Wales College who were pre- sent at the closing exercises last evening were so sadly marred. I must, however, in justice to the students, inform them that the offenders were not studenis, but strangers. This I saw for myself, and my observations were correborated by ti e statements of many who had the best of- portunity of ascertaining the facts. It was further averred that there was an organized effort put forth to annoy and disturb the singers and speakers. The students themselves, though the reins of cise - pline are, on stc cc%sons, cons siderably relaxed, were under perfect coa- trolj; but for ovtsiders, whore conduct we canvot be held responsible, there ought, certainly, to be son.e power vigorous and effective enough to re. ch them. Mo-t tra'y yours, ALEX. ANDER 30N. When a man owns a blooded horee be is always careful of its bealth. He looks after its diet and is particular that the feeding shall be regu'ar and right. Whil: ne is doing this it ix likely as not that he is himself suffering frora some disease or disorder. When the trouble gets so bad that he canvot work, be will begin to give bimself the care he gave the horse at the start. Good pure, rich, red blood is the nest insurance against disease of any kind, Almost all diseases come from impure or mpoverished biood. Keep the blood pare and strong and disease can find no foothold. That is the principle upon which Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery works. It cleanses, purifies and evri-shes the blood, puts and keeps the whole body in perfect order; makes appetite good, diges~ tion strong, assimilatioa perfect. It brings ruddy, virile health. It bnilds up solid, wholesome flesh (not fat) when, from any cause, reduced below the healthy standard.
