The Act contains an exception, that its provisions shall not apply to elec- tors employed by the day, and as the above mentioned are so employed, it follows that they have not been deprived of their votes. of the Act has under the consideration of The whole construction lately been counsel and an opinion has been obtained | from them that the Railway men so em- ployed are not deprive | of their votes.

A Legal Opinion Given on the Matter. THE Ovr opinion has been asked whether electors employed on the Prince Edward Island Railway as workmen in the shops and yards, section men on the line, brake- men, firemen, drivers and baggage- men, are disqualified from voting by virtue of the provisions of the Act 56 Vic., cap. 2, passed at the last se:- sion of the Legislature. Bhat Act declares that it shall not be lawful for persons in the employ of specified department: of the Government of Canada, under certain cir cumstance*, to vote at any election to be aeld for the election of members to repre- sent any electoral district in the Legisla- tive Council or House of Assembly of this Province. There is, however, an excep tion in this Act in favor of electors employ- ed temporarily by the day. The Act does not affect these persons, and they can vote as they always did. We are instructed on the Prince Edward Edward Island Rail- section men on the Ime, brakemen, firemen, drivers and baggagemen, and paid at a ceive their pay at the end. of each month, Province who are employed and paid in the same way. These are alk Kable to be discharged at the close of anyday; and we are asked whether they have been dis- qualified under the provisions of the above Act.

Loses His Life in a Vain Attemp te Save His Teacher, The little district school house at Coop- erville, Livingston county, N. Y. was burned down on Wednesday. The teacher, Miss Mabel Porter, 20, and one little hero scholar Jost their lives. Two hours after school opened Miss Porter detected the smell of smoke. She opened a door lead- ing into a woodshed to discover if any thing was on fire. As she did sothe flames burst into the school room and enveloped the teacher. Miss Porter ecreamed and fell forward into the flames. Immediately the schoolroom was in an uproar, There were twenty-five scholars, most of whom were young children. Two brothers, Melvin and Charles Chambers, aged 14and 16 years, displayed remark- able presence of mind. To their hard work at the risk of their own lives is given the credit of saving most of the imperilled pupils. There was but one door, that #pening into the -barning shed, through which entrance to the schoolhouse was ef- fected. The brothers, seeing escape cut otf in that direction, tore a seat from the floor, placed it under a window, smashed the glass and managed to lift the chil- dren through, Three girls fainted, and it was with diffienlty that they were dragged through the littl window to a place of satety. Four-year-old John Johnson, son of a farmer residing near by, was burned to death. He was the teacher’s pet. When he saw her fall forward into the fire he ran to her side in a vain and futile effort to protect her from harm. So he died likeahero. That night, when the ruins of the schoclhouse were searched, the charred bodies of the teacher and the noble little tellow were found side by side. The Chambers boys were both severely burnt about the face and arms. The younger inhaled so much hot air that it is feared serious illness may result. —_——_=EeEee To Dispel Celds, Headaches and fevers, to cleanse. the system effectually, yet gently, when custive or bilious, or when the blood is impure or sluggisL, to permanently cure habitual constipation, to awaken the kidneys and liver to a healthy activity, without irritat- ing or weakening them, use Syrup of ue igs.
