the government will do in the matter’
bring to light its nature and extent
but also test severely the since rity of
the Czar’s peace proposals of a few
weeks ago ~ ‘
As for Britain, her course appears
to be taken and will not be abandoned,
regardless of how formidable may be
the combination against her interests;
At the most she will probably find
one or more allies, if compelled __ tp
light both Russia and France But;
the present unsettled condition of the
French Republic is such that the
Czar is not likely to venture upon _ a”
gigantic war in its behalf. A revolu-i
tion may break out at any hour in*
Paris which would entirely change?
the situation. The outlook forpéacel
is certainly not assuring, but it may?
be hoped the storm willnot-bi'eili‘tilli;
the resources of diplomacy haveffliadl
further trial. A
, _
Chicago has indulged in a peace
jubilee, which has attracted more?
visitors than anything since thei
world`s fair. It was a' big affair andw
was attended by the President," to
whom the girls threw kisses-4 ‘Hob-
sonising’ him, as _it was called. The
word has been coined with reference,
to the impulsive fair one who osicu-‘
lated Lieut. Hobson on his return
from the war. One noteworthy
thing about the jubilee was _that ii
celebrated a peace that has not yet
been established-only the protocol
having yet been signed.
l`he recent marriage of Howard
Gould, son of the late Jay Gould,
without the consent of his father’s
executors, may prove a serious affair
for him financia‘ly. It is provided in
J ay Gould’s will that in case of the
marriage of either of his sons ordaugh-
ters without the consent of his eitecu-
tors and trustees the oH`ender shall
forfeit one half of his legacy to the
other membeis of the family. How-
a.rd’s legacy was over nine millions of
dollars and is now worth twelve mil-
lions. He has therefore apparently
sacrificed some six millions in order
to marry the girl of his choice.
There has been a. big “saw olf” as
the politicians callit, of election peti-
tions in Ontario After
against the successful candidates on
both sides. A number have been un
seated, or have resigned to escape un:
seating. N ow the remaining 22 cle.

ates of each party, have been aband-
oned. The inierencc must bc, eir,her_

The oiiicial Trade Commissioner K of-
New Zealand is now in Montreal
locking to the extension of trade be
'tween his country and Canada. New"
Zealand is a very productive oouiitry,
the exports being 'about $62 per head
of the population. -~ TheCommissi-mer
thinks a considerable trade would
develop in agricultural machinery,
hardware, clothing, boots and shoes
andother lines of- Canadian produc-

A substitute for rubber is said to
have been discovered which is likely
gum shoes and bicycle tires. Thenew
product- is made from the ,waste of
the corn used in making glucose. It
has hitherto been useless. The demand
for rubber has always exceeded ’ the
supply, and a substitute is the more
_needed because oi the greatly increas-
ed demand for making pneumatic
tires for wheels. A cheapening of 25
per cent in rubber goods is 'predicted
to result when the new manufacture
is once well under way.
