a’ _ <a ay = THE DAILY EXAMINER. A WEDNESDAY, MAY 17, 1893. THE DAILY EXAMINER. MAY 17, 1893. Notes and Comments ran recently for Her sworn state —Mrs. Anna Potter mayor of Kansas City. meat of expenses is as follows : “Juvenile colored band, $25; $5; another band wages $5; tickets, $18.59, four banners, $2 $79 50.” Unfortunately for Mrs. Potter she only obtained 25 votes. —Mr. L. H. Davies recently informed the Boston Herald that the new grit policy was about as follows : “‘Weishall eliminate from the present tarifi its protective principle, reducing it down to a purely revenue tariff, with free trade as th« ultimate goal.” This should be pleasing to all sections of the party. Its indefiniteness is refresh ng. —A Boston paper recently made a sneer ing remark to the effect that the Canadian public debt was so large as to make the country practically bankrupt. Yet during the of the fiscal year which has expired the Canited States’ revenue has not met the expenditure, while Canada has a handsome surplus. It will be necessary for the next United States’ tariff revision to increase the aggregate taxation. It is expected that the Finance Minister of Canada will be able in his next budget to introduce measures for the reduction of taxation. band wagon, band, $24; Total, —The London Daily Chronicle, referring to the extradition treaty which has been negotiated between the United States and Russia, and which the United States senate has ratified in secret session, says : ** We cannot understand the motives of the senate in conceding to Russia what was re- fused to Great Britain and France. Mr. Cleve- land has made the American government the watch dog of Russian absolutism, as forty years ago it was the elave catcher for southern planters. It will be long ere this blot on Mr. Cleveland's escutcheon will be wiped out.” —Notes for Cheesemakers for May is the title of a bulietin just issued by Prof. Robertson, Dominion Dairy Commissioner, a copy of which has been received by THe Examiner. The bulletin contains a splendid article on spring dairying, and concludes with the advice tu every cheese- maker in the country to brand or stamp the word “Canadian” on every cheese and box. A pattern shows the word ‘Cana- dian” in plain large letters, surrounded by astencil border of maple leaves. The bulletin also contains a reprint of the act last session “To prevent the manu- acture and sale of filled or imitation cheese, and to provide for the branding of dairy products.” —President Cleveland has caused to be published « notice that he will see no more office-seekers. The Washington cor- respondent of the Moncton Times says : Mr. Cleveland’s decision is not of the slightest public importance, nor is it the first time that he has taken the same steps. He issued a similar notice in 1885. In this case, to use a little slang, it is believed te be a “‘put-up job” between the President and Senators and Representatives of his party to ‘freeze out” the large number of oflice-seekers who have come to Washington on their own hook, and were acting entirely independent of the aforesaid Senators and Representatives. It act- ed all right so far as the White House is concerned, but the crowd has swooped down upon the members of the Cabinet to such an extent that they are considering the advisabiiity of refusing personal inter- views of office-seekers. —It is sometimes said that Canadians are over-enthusiastic regarding the Old Flag, and that Englishmen themselves do not ex- hibit so much loyalty. The following des- cription of an incident at a great politica! meeting held recently in Albert Hall, Lon don, is therefore instructive as well as in teresting: ‘‘The rapture over the Union Jack was another glowing incident. The flag was brought down the hall and planted by the chairman’s place in the centre of the platform. The whole meeting jumped to their feet, cheered and shouted joyously. When the speaking commenced the flag was taken away. But this was not tcler- ated. Although the Duke of Abercorn was on his feet, he could get no hearing. From all parts of the hall came indignant cries of **The flag! the flag!” His Grace saw what was wrong, and at once had the brought back, and with his own hand helped to place it in position. A tumultu- ous burst of cheering welcomed the re- appearance of the beloved flag.” —Nearly 1,250,000 acrea of land in Man- itoba and the Territories were surveyed for settlement last year. This season this amount will be greatly exceeded, as land is wanted for settlument. A number of Dom- inion land surveyors are already in the field. Others are on their way and arrange- ments are well advanced for sending out the remainder. There will be four parties in the district between Prince Albert and Yorktown empleyed on sub-division sur- veys of township outlines; boundary marks, etc, Thomas Fawcett will have charge of this survey. Mr. J.S. Dennis, tho chief inspector of surveys, has three parties under him doing similar work in the district sur- rounding Edmonton. There are two parties working in the foothill country near the Rocky mountain. One under Mr. OC. F. Miles will work from the international boundary to Calgary. The other under Mr, F. W. Wilkins will operate between Cal. gary and Edmonton. Mr. R. Beurne has another party working with him in Mani- toba. In addition to doing some sub- division work in the Lake Dauphin district the party will do some edd work here and there through the province. Mr. John Vicars has a party under him in British Columbia, and has been at work there for some time past. There are in addition to these surveyors, who are paid by the day, 14 contraetors for sub-division of townships, whose work is calculated to average $5,000 each. The townships under contract are all between Calgary and North Saskatch.- ewan. Norutne more affecting’ or pathetic than Mr. Murphy’s singing of “A Handful of Earth.” The tears flow from the eyes of the fair as well as from the sterner sex.

The audience was large, the building being packed to the door. The acting all through was excellent, and the scenes good. Mr. Murphy made a splendid ‘*‘Dan O'Hara,” and Miss Caro- lyn Elberts was excellant as ‘‘Nora Drew.” Mr. J. K. Hutchinson impersonated the character of ‘‘Raymond Drew” well. The part of **Valentine Hay” was capitally tak: en by Mr. Kilday; and ‘‘Mr. O'Drive,” his right bower, was well acted by Mr. Sheehan. Mr. Scott and Mr. O'Day impersonated the characters of ‘‘Major Gruff’ and ‘-Patrick Drew” in fine style; and Mr. Richardson as ‘‘Captain Basil Sydney” looked the part and acted it well. The stuttering ‘‘Sergeant Bull” created con- siderable amusement; and the part of **Dennis Doyle,” Dan O’Hara’s friend, was well taken by Mr. A. W. Palmer. Miss Josie Bacon as ‘‘Alice Doyle,’ acted her part splendidly, and Miss Ella Baker as **Boy Billie” was also good. The arrest of **Dan O'Hara” in the first act was a capital piece of acting, the scene between ‘‘Dan’’ and “Nora” being very fine. The forge scene in the third act was also good, a horseshoe being made and a horse shod in ful’ view of the audience. In this scene “Boy Billie” introduced a song and dance which was very captivating. The racing scene in the last act, and the arrest of ‘Valentine Hay” and his companica in villainy ‘‘O’Drive.” were also cleverly enacted. To-night ‘Shaun Rhus” will be put upon the boards, and to-morrow even- ing ‘The Kerry Gow” will be repeated for the benefit of those who could not obtain seats last evening, oe In the Hands of Sharpers. A NIAGARA COUNTY FARMER INVESTS $2,900. BUT LUCKILY RECOVERS IT. David L. Royalton, Niagara county, New York, on Monday made complaint to the chief of police that he had been de- frauded of $2,900 by two men giving the names of D. L. Hadley and B. A. Wells, of Chicago. Roberts made their acquaintance last April, when Hadley called at his home and invited him to accompany him to buf- falo, where Hadley said he intended to establish an agency for a patented article indispensable to the household, He offered Roberts $100 a month and expenses to act as agent at Buffalo, and Roberts abandoned the farm to accept the offer. The patent article turned out to bea flit iron, which Hadiey assured him was having wonderful sales all over the country. Being taken with Roberts’ ability, Hadley offered to sell him an interest in the bugutess for $5,000, but finally compromised on $2,900, all the cash Roberts had. Roberts, Hadley and Wells met at the Scrafford house, Buffalo, ou Sunday and closed the bargain, Roberts turning oger the cash. When he acquaint. ed his friends with the facts they started an investigation, which resulted in the issue of warrants for the arrest of the two men, who were captured by the police on Monday as they were about to leave the town. The money was recovered. > ow + Personal, Mr. West Hyndman left the Island for Winnipeg this morviag. We wish our young friend success. Messrs. O. Jones, J. L. Harris and E.

Harvie, Esq , of this city, will leave for Halifax on Friday morning to take a posi- tion in the wholesale drug hoase of Brown & Webb.

He is a thorough master of his business, and Messrs. Brown & Webb are to be congratulated upon being so fortunate as to secure his services.
