= — — — Ss em THE DAILY EXAMINER. - - THE DAILY EXAMINER a at St John’s, Newfound- land. The Fire Ir is almost impossible to realiz2 the ap- palling nature of the calamity which has overtaken the city of St. John’s, Newfound- land. That city, which is built upon the side of a steep hill, at its greatest length stretches about two miles from Signal Hill at the east to Vail’s Bridge at the West. In width it is about three-quarters of a mile fer about three-fourths of the whole dis- tance, then gradually narrows down until it runs almost to a point. Beyond these limits lie inmost of the magnificent residences of the wealthier people, which are situated on the north and west sides of the city in all directions. The fire originated among some wooden buildings on Long's Hill, a street which runs northwest diagonally from the Episcopal cathedral to Military Road, which msy be called the northern boundary of the city—much in the sense in which, a few years ago, Euston Street was the northern boundary of Charlottetown. From this point the flames swept east and south, buruing down to the water side on the south and to Signal Hillon the east. The magniticenat Roman Catholic cathedral with its block of stone edifices (college, bishop's palace, lecture hall, and couvents), has escap>. They are north of the line of fire and have no buildings at all in their immediate neighborhood on the side from which the fire came. The district swept includes from the south side of the Military Road to the water, and from a street known as Limekiln Road (which runs from Beck's or O'Dwyer's Cove northeast to the Parade Ground) to Signal Hill. R oughly, this district is about a mile or a mile and a quarter in length by three-quarters of a mile in breadth. If our despatches are correct, almost the only buildings left standing in this district are Union Bank (the escape of which seems miraculous, if it be correct) and Devon Row, a short range of fine stone residences not far west of the base of Signai Hill. This district would be fully as large as the city of Char- lottetown, and as the streets are narrow and the housea closely built, it contains more buildings than our city. The busi- ness of St. John’s is almost entirely con- fined to Water Street; in fact, there are no large establishments anywhere else. Of this street fullyone half has been destroy- ed. Of the public buildings only Govern- ment House and the Colonial Building, (both north of Military Road) and the Post Office (which is West of the limit of fire) remain. The greater number of dwellings destroyed were inhabited by the middle class and the poor, upon whom the loss will fall most heavily. Our despatches give an idea of the number of people home- less and destitute. To those who are at all acquainted with the people of St. John’s it is needless to say that there will be great suffering and that there ia pressing need of relief. Shipments of potatoes from our Is- land would be of great value, in fact, everything in the shape of food will be needed, and in our circumstances it would be far better that assistance take the form of provisions, rather than that money be sent. Provisions in St. John's will neces- sarily be scarce and dear, and we can pur- chase and ship to greater advantage. We feel sure Charlottetown will not be behind in assisting the sufferers.

So much incre- dulity has been expressed by Reform critics like Mr. Mulock of the correctness of the returns made on previcus occasions from this agency, that it is interesting to observe that Mr. Webster gives the name of each head of a family, his former address in Dakota, and the pint in Canada to which he has been shipped, together with parti- culars as to settler’s effects carried with h'm During the four months named twu hun- dred and sixty two persons came over the border, bringing with them eight hundred and sixty-four head of cattle. The value of the stock and eflects is placed at $50,000. A considerable number of the settlers were Canadians, who had been induced to go to Dakota by the glowing statements of Grit papers of how much better farmers wore doing in the western states than in Can- ada, aod were now sorrowfully returning after their bitter experience. But more than half of them were Americans, Ger- mans aod Norwegians, attracted by the superior advantages of Canada. TT Tue Potato Buc.—A correspondent writes as follows: ‘“‘In passing through Vernon River on Friday last, my attention was called to a field of potatoes planted by Mr. Finlay. I examined them and could not find one potato bug in the whole field. The strange thing is that this is the 39h crop of potatoes in succession planted in this field without lime or messel mud ever being apptied, the only fertilizer ased being stable manure.” Perhaps some other correspondents may be able to te!l us whether this field owes its freedom from the pest to the fact that lime and mussel mad have never been used upon it.

Saturpay, July 9. JUSTICE HODGSON AND A COM MON JURY, John Bolger vs. the city of Charlotte- town.—This was an action brought by the plaintiff, who resides nearly opposite the Railway station in Charlottetown, against the city, to recover damages alleged to have been sustained by the plaintiff. by reason of improvements made on Water Street, Charlottetown. Bolger claimed that owing to the macadamizing and raising of that street by the city, the water was backed and dammed upon the plaintiff's premises and into the cellar of his hotel. It was proved on the trial that Water Street, opposite the plaintiffs property, was always very swampy. low and wet, and that it was almost impossible in the spring and fall for teams to pass over the : street. The city, after the railway was built, and to meet the increased traffic, in fact to render the street at all passable, macadam‘zed and improved it so that new it is one of the best in Charlottetown. The water, how- ever, continued to run in and out of the plaintiff's cellar, which, the plaintiff claim- ed, was caused by the improvements en the street made by the city, hence the action. At the close of his evidence Mr. Fitzverald, Q. C. counsel for the city, moved fora non-suit, which Mr. Justice Hodgson granted, on the ground that the plaintiff had completely failed to make out any case against the city. The learned Judge laid it down as clear law that while the city had full authority to make improvements on the streets, they must do so in a propermanner and so as in no way to cause dsmage or injury to adjoining landowners In the present case the plaintiff had utterly failed to give any evidence connecting the water in the cellar with the improvements made. On the contrary, it was quite clear that the property in that locality was always wet, ani that the water ran in and out as much before as it did since the street was built up Under these circumstances, it would be ridiculous to ask the jury to pass an opinion on it. Regarding the plaintiff's complaint about the stagnant water in the gutter in front of bis house, it was, according to the evidence, caused by the slops, ete , thrown from his own house, for which the plaintiff himself and not the city was accountable. The plaintiff was accordingly non-suited. The Attorney: General and Mr. Arthur Peters for the plaintiff; Mr. Fitzgerald, Q. C., for the city. BEFORE MR. Monpay, July 11.

Six,—In your issue of July 2, there is a communication signed ** Praxis,” in answer to mina of a previous date. The writer is evidently a man of culture and delicate skill. Now, certainly there is no mistake in my statement of Mr. Allison’s expressed opinion concerning the proper functions of universities. He said **It is nu part of the duty of Universities to convey what is known as practical or technical education. Their duty is to cultivate the mind, to educate the faculties, to make men gentle- men (he took care to say not the ‘* dude variety,”) to train the mind so as to lay the foundation of a technical education, and to give the mind what is known as the ‘university tone.” He quoted and ap- proved the following from James Kussel Lowell's address to the Harvard students : ‘* The general purpose of a university is to set free, tc supply and train the faculties in such wise as shall make them most ef- fective fur whatever task life may after. wards set them, for the duties rather than for i‘s business.” He ssid the practical and technical education should be made to follow the university. Weare only con- cerned with Mr. Allison's opinions in his capacity as superintendent of a provincial money to aid its support. We have no concern with the duties of a university in rich opulent countries. We live ina large, poor, sparsely populated country, with immense natural resources, awaiting de- velopment by skilled, trained, mental and manual labor. This fact should be kept constantly in view in our management of our educational establishments from the lowest school to the university. What our youth require, is such a system of educa- tion as shell furnish a sound, practical training of the mind, such a training of the hands, such a knowledge of nature and nature’s laws, such a training of the, de- sires, preferences and aspirations and such other practical knowledge and training as} will enable him to obtain a good livelihond | out of the resources of the country, and contribute to the happiness of others, also to take profit and delight in the study of | these resources and the laws which govern them. We cannot begin too early with this plan, and it should be continued through the aniversity course. I saw in’ Winnipeg a teacher place a poplar, bud in the hands of a boy of eight or ten years of age and it was surprisiag | to hear him describe this natural product. | That boy, if he shall be allowed to pursue a course embracing this kind of study through the university, will be so thor- oughly conversant with and in Jove with nature that he will always have means for rpbounded happiness and prosperity. T[ was told by the teacher that this boy, with the others, was not allowed any books in, these studies. All they know was learned | by observation, aided by demonstration. There is no need of a special, barren course of study to train the f.culties and inculcate | gentlemanly instincts. a course as I have indicated will do ail this in addition to the enormous advantages already indicated As I have said, we are poor, and cannot afford to indulge in Mr. Allison’s plan. A young man would be fit to enter a university at twenty years, he would take his arts course at. twenty-four, and he would finish his technics] course at | twenty-eight years This we cannot afford; very few will go through this, The system which we pay for should tend to mike men useful and in love with our country, instead of, as is the case now, | making them useless and despisers of our country. Consider what is going on in this country. I-am not quite certain as to | the amount, but probably about two-fifths’ of our revenue are spent on our educational system, and we odtain the result that nearly all who go through the fall course become unfit for useful citizenship. ; A large proportion acquire a dislike for | the really useful avocsutions of this_ country, and aim at becoming do>tors, liw- | yers, or something else of the kind, and thus | by congestir g these avocations become ueless or worse, or else go away to a foreiga country and expend the energies which our money has helped to cultivate for the benefit of that toreign country. It is bad policy; it is bad statesmanship. to say the least, to expend public money for private uses, for any other purpose than for the public good. Mr. Allison ssid that in many plices in Nova Scotia the people refuse to contribute, saying that there is too much education al. | ready and that the young peop'e are becoming | spoiled. 1 always pay great respect to these popular prejudices, There is nearly always at least a grainof sense in them. Mr Allison professes not to understand and believe this. The people are right. There is too much education of the kind furnished, the perverted : kind I have indicated. If you furnish the people with the kiod of education I advocate, there is no doubt you will delight them, and they will open their pockets freely to your re- quests for help. Yours fe oe I. O. O. F.

The fighting was desper- ate, with no decisive result. - The French Chamber of Deputies com- mittee to which the proposal fur holding an exposition in 1900 was submitted, unani- mously approved it. A chemical journal warns pharmacists and all others who have occasion to display anything in the nature of a lens in their window that, as the season changes, the sun’s ray’s may fall directly inte windows which they did not reach during the winter, and therefore it would be well to bear in mind the possibility of fire being kindled through this agency, and take precautions accordingly.
