A Carmelite Nunnery In Canada

A Montreal letter gives publicity to
some interesting facts in relation to a
Carmelite nunnery at Hochelaga, near
that city. 1t has been in existence sew
eral years, but no one has ever heard
much of them. These nuns are subject
ed to the severest discipline of all the
orders. They wear but one garment
summer and winter, coarse serge gown
reaching to the feet, with hood almost
completely covering the face. Their feet
are shod with sandals, and they are not
permitted to wear hosiery. AS Especial
favor, they have been allowed, in oul
severe winters, to wrap pieces of serge
around their feet and ankles. They
never touch meat, poultry, fish,
butter or eggs, and eat only
enc meal day of bread and
boiled Vegetables. TIL cir touches are
bare planks, with square blank of wood
for a pillow, and they sleep without
other covering than their daily dress.
Their doors are jealousy closed, even to
women,Ithe priest or the doctors. They
pass their lives in silence, even their
PRAYERS being said under their breath.
Their singing of the church service Is
conducted in Ii whispered monotone.
Such exceptance of the vows of poverty,
chastity and obedience has proved re-
gimen too severe for the constitution of
the ladies', and several of them have
died. Others are at the point of death,
vet the Lady Superior and the nuns
themselves steadily refuse to make any
change in their method of living, declar'
ing that all is in Gods hands.

Mr.. Roberts, president OF the Penn
sylvania railroad company, in speech
before the committee Of the legislature
among other facts said that in no place
in the world were passengers carried SO
cheap and with 80 much comfort as in
Pennsylvania, nor were freights any
where so low. In 1882 the local traffic
of the Pennsylvania railroad alone had
increased 100000 tons, while the
through traffic bad only increased ten
car loads. Mr.. Roberts said that the
Chicago limited was now run at bare
profit. and the only reason il was con-
tinued was that the Pennsylvania rail-
road desired to retain place in the
foremost ranks of the railroads Of the
world :

Jottings for the Jolly.

AS to rapid transit: The slowest man
ever heard of was one who could not
get out of his own way.
Pennsylvania piety: An old lady near
Reading won't let her husband visit that
city since she read in the Bible that
Reading maketh full man."
4 slow coach: A man in Browning
ton takes his family to church in sleigh
drawn by an OK. That's one way to es-
cape sermon.
A matter oflanguage: It's just as well
to be refined in your conversation. Say,
FThese who indulge in Terpsichorean
recreation are under an obligation to
remunerate the violinist."
English English: For both these pur-
poses Henry's notes are of considerable
value; but there is little local color and
hardly any picturesque touches to rem
der them OF interest to the outside
World.-London Athe1 aum.
Hatred of hypocracy: "No, SIR" said
the gentleman; 81 am not brutal in my
disposition and tastes; but hate hypoc-
risy in man or beast, and if two dogs
have rooted antipathy for each other l
don't like to see 'em conceal it."
Literary: "Otway, dramatic poet of
the first class, persisted with hunger"
What became of the third class poets in
Otway's day is not stated, but they
were probably fred from mortar
against stone wall.
Hard upon herself: G--has been
married six months. His mother-in-
law rings, enters and embraces her SON
in law. Then taking him by the hand
she says, 81 wish you everything that
you desire" "You are very hard upon
yourself, repliedG--. From the Fench.
Study of Greek: Mr.. Froude in the
course Of recent lecture, stated that
Cato did not begin to learn the Greek
language until he was eighty-four years
of age. The boys of to-day tell their
fathers that they are anxious to follow
the example of Cato.-Somerville Jour-
nal. ."

Delegate Pettigrew on this Winters
Work,

Delegate Pettigrew of Dakota, in sum-
ming up the work of the session of congress,
says: have spent great deal of time on
the Sioux treaty, and great part of my
time has been devoted to an effect to secure
the admission of the Territory. ! have been
met both in this session of congress and the
last with opposition TO the introduction or
reporting of any bills 10 increase the number
ofthe Territorial legislature, or to increasing
the judicial force ofthe Territory for fear It
would iniure the chances of an admission
or division of Dakota. No later than Tues
day of last week, Senator Harris objected to
my having the bill for the new judicial dis
trict reported, because it would iniure the
chances of division. 1t is my opinion that
there never was time during the life of this
congress when it would have been possible
to admit Dakota under the existing rules.
Unless the republican party as unit had
determined to change its rules and admit
Dakota as party measure, 1t could not
have been done at any time, and the only
hope we had was to pass the bill for tn ad-
mission of Dakota. That could have been
done last winter before the dem ocratic party
was sure of the next house.

The prosecution in the star route cases
rested last week, and the defence be-
gan. The prosecution occupied over
six weeks and there is no reason to be-
lleve that the defence will take much
less time. There should be some way
of depressing such fearful waste Of
money, but no remedy issuggested. The
outcome will probably be another disa'
greement of the jury as to the principal
culprits, followed, perhaps by nolle

The failure of the river and harbor
bill win not interfere materially this
year with Northwestern improvements.
The river and harbor bill of last year
passed late in the season, and the ex-
pend lures authorized were therefore
not exhausted. But after present funds
are exhausted there is prospect of a
long wait before any further money will
be available, unless the congressional
practice of putting things off till the last
moment, is reversed. Should appro-
priations be made in the early part of the
session work can so on without inter
ruption.

THE CRIMINAL RECORD.

Inc SnerlH OF ottawa county, Michigan,

charging DR.. Harry Ross with forgery
in Michigan. Then he came in person and
had the doctor confined in the bastie He
made many remarks about acquisitions from
the governor of Michigan, bnt Monday the
telegraph informed him that no requisition
would be issued, so he got out of town to
avoid being arrested for false Imprisonment.

Monday morning and the sheriff was not
present, so Ross was discharged from Gus
tody and is now looking for the man. 1t is
said on the street that a request will be made

were charged with robbing granger
$500 when an the Milwaukee road near Red

from members of the association an assess
ment to meet loss accruing by the alleged
death of one Hadray, at Black River Falls

place, and none of the attesting witnesses

to be fraudulent.

hanged Friday. Having eaten heartily and
taken drink of whisky, he lit a cigar and
