Advice 10 a Young Man.

Remember, my son, you have to work.
Whether You handle pick or pen, a
wheelbarrow or a set of books, digging
bitches or editing paper, ringing an auc-
ton bell Or writing funny things, you
must work. If you look around, son,
you will see the men who are the ablest
to live the rest of their days without work
are the men who work the hardest. Don't
be afraid of killing yourself with over
work. 1t is beyond your power to do
that on the sunny side of thirty They
die sometimes, but it's because they quit
work at 6 p. M, and don't get home until
a. m. It's the interval that kills, my
son. The work gives you an appetite for
your meals, it lends solidity to your slum-
bers, it gives you perfect and grateful
appreciation of holiday. There are
young men who do not work, my son,
but the world is not proud of them. 1t
does not know their name even; it simply
speaks of them as old so-and-so's boys.
Nobody likes them; the great busy world
does Mt know that they are there. So find
out what you want to be and do. my son,
and tase off your coat and make a dust
in the world. The buster you are the less
deviltry you will be apt to get into. the
sweeter will be your sleep, The brighter
and happier your holidays, and the better
satisfied the world will be with you.-

An Earthquake on the Atlantic Coast.

An Earthquake on the Atlantic Coast.
New York dispatch of Sunday: The
greatest earthquake ever experienced. on
Manhattan Island startled the city at 2:O5
o'clock this afternoon. All the morning
clouds had been playing hide and seek and
the sun and atmosphere were damp and
dry ny turns. They indicated some sort
of disturbance At 1:45 the sun came
out with dazzling brllliancy and induced
many thousand people to leave their
homes and crowd the streets. Suddenly
came q violent vibration of the earth,
preceded by low, rumbling sound, as if
explosions of many heavy guns had
struck the echo of distant mountains and
caught up again. In all parts of the city
buildings rocked and trembled for several
seconds, sending pcll nell into the streets
vast crowds of terrified people, whose
blanched faces told the story Of their
flight. A vigorous bombardment of the
city could not have shaken the buildings
more than did the rumbling noise. The
tremulous movement of the earth soon
convinced all thinking people that the dis
turbance was not due to anything that
had taken place on the earth's surface. 1t
was plainly an earthquake. No such dis
turbance has occurred in the city since
1870, and then the shock was light com
pared with that of to-day. There was u
sudden shaking of the buildings through
out the city. Windows ratified, buildings
trembled as if agitated by powerful ma
chinery underneath. People were thrown
from sofas and beds to the floor, and
many fell on the sidewalk Great con-
sternation prevailed. If the shock had
been a little more violent, Manhattan Is
land would have been in ruins, and the
loss of life would have been appalling.
The course of the disturbance seems to
have been from east to west.
Dispatches from Philadelphia, Wash
ington, Baltimore, Boston, and other
places on the Atlantic coast, report sim
liar disturbances. The most severe shock
was reported from Seabright, N. j.,
where the depot was shifted to one side,
shaking up the contents and alarming
the sole inmate. All Of Long Island
was severely shaken. No positive dam
age was reported, the sensations in every
case being similar to those reported in
New York.

Special Telegram TO the Globe.
OTTAWA, Ont, Oct. 19-The following
telegram was received here on Saturday
afternoon: ''Telegrams from Calgary state
that 1t is reported that Louis Riel was shot
during a riot at Prince Albert,
that the governments wires have
been cut and that Maj. Crozier, of the
mounted police and his command at Battle
ford have been massacree1. Your CORES
pendent interviewed to-day Sir 0ssid Mac
pherson. minister of the interior. He says,
so far no confirmation OF the report has
reached the department. He could not deny
the authenticity OF the report, but thought it
i'm probable. The facts of the present
troubles may be briefly told.
Under the Manitoba act of 1870
each half breed born in the province before
July l of that year was rated 240 scres Of
land free in satisfaction of what may be
termed the half-breed title, but beyond the
confines OF Manitoba lay a few haif-breed
settlements. for the inhabitants of which no
provision was then made, nor indeed was
any demanded at the time.
st. Laurent, one OF these, was established
place. The first demand for consideration
was preferred by the colonists there about
ten years ago, when they asked to be placed
on the same footing as regards free house
holders as the Metis of Manitoba. Later on,
when the Dominion surveyors appeared
in the country, the demand was
pressed vehemently. The halfbreeds, as was
their custom, had settled along the rivers,
each farm having narrow water front and
extending far back in the form Of parallel
ogram. The surveyors would, of course, be
compelled to destroy this arrangement OF the
lots aud the people earnestly protested
against it. They also renewed their claim
for grants of $50 acres per
capita, and from that day to this the agitation
has been maintained, Rieps arrival from
Montana last spring giving 1.-THE semblance
of general aud united movement of the
French half breeds OF Saskatchewan.
On September the half breds held large
public meeting at St. Laurent, at which
Bishop Grandin and large number OF his
clergy were present. Riel set
forth the claims of the
half breeds Is being, first, the subdivision
into provinces OF the northwest territories;
second, the half-breeds to receive the same
grants ana other advantages as the Manitoba
half breeds; third, patents to be issued at
once to thc colonlsts in possession; fourth,
the sale of 100000 acres of Do
minlon lands, the proceeds TO
be applied to the establishment in the
half breed settiem .nts of schools, ospitals,
ana such Ike institutions and the equipment
of the poorer haif breeds with seed, grain,
and implements, fifth, Tne reservation
of hundred townships Of swamp land for
distribution among tue children of half
breeds during the next 120 years;
sixth, gran: of at least 81, 200 for the main
tenance OF an institution to be conducted by
the nuns in each half breed settlement; and,
seventh. better provision for the support of
the Indians. AS result of the meeting a
permanent organization was effected.
