EARL DUFFERIN, according to an OF
tawa telegram, desired to attend the
Centennial, and wished Mr.. Mackenzie
to include an item of 1915, 900, for
state visit, in the estimate but the
Premier declined to do this on account
of the depressed. condition of business
in the Dominion and the necessity for
economy in the administration of the
Government, and so, for want of the
simple little item of $4,000, the Earl
will not come over and visit us this year.

top of high house in which a fire was
fiercely raging below. Mattresses hav-

twenty, leaped first, and notwithstand-

with the same result, the youngest
daughter jumped last and shared the

COLUMBUS, OHIO, October 2-There was a
startling rumor on the streets or the city Sat
uTdgy afternoon and ail day yesterday, re-
garding the new mode of conducting political
campaigns, namely, "betting on elections"
Zach Chandler, ths unprlncip pied chairman of
the NaJior al Republican com mmittee, in nfoTmed
GJYernOr Hayes by letter that unless he took
the State of Uhio in October by substantial
majority, that the committee would d Op him
and leaVs him to fight his own battles. 1t was
ictimated 20 Hayes by Chandler that unless
he raised sufficient funds for that purpose the
Republicans would regard him as ipteIlO-
per, dead weight Oh its hands. This 80 net
tied Hayes thaJ he sought q loan OF one hun
dred and fifty thousand dollars, and procured
il afr depositng sufficient collateral. The
major portion of said loan was obtained from
CAPT aIisls in the city, the rest of il from we'll
known politicians and BAL ReTs, eacn party
requiring sufficient cJllateral. The division of
the funds was a subject OF discussion among
the politicians, but II was unanimously deci-
ded TO appropriate certain amount for "bet-
ting purposes" in order TO create, as In la t
| yI car, public opinion. Twenty thousand dol

that purpose, and nov young men may
