Remarkable, If True.
A Strange Story Told by a. Party Of
Canadian Hunters.

A special from Ottawa Ont, says: I'm
tense excitement has been created here
by the arrival Of five young hunters who
tell of startling discovery they made in
Brule, go miles south of the Canadian
Pacific Railway and just north Of the
United States boundary line. They met
farmers family fleeing from what the
said was mountain on fire. The noun
taineer and his family told such pitiful
tale that the young hunters gave up
their intended trip and investigated the
strange phenomena. In tracing the case
Of the farmers great excitement they
found that it was evidently owing to the
subterranean heat in the mountains side
which extended under the river bed.
About mile further up the stream be-
came 80 hot that 1t heated the water un-
til steam arose from the surface. Close
to the spot where the farmer lived the
hunters found the air almost sitting and
the earth too hot to touch with the hands.
Further back on the mountain side the
heat was unbearable. After climbing its
side for about 900 feet the hunters were
forced to return, as the air was simply
suffOcating. Animals had left their re-
treats, the birds steered clear of the lOca-
lily and not living thing was to be
seen. The earth was dry and cracked
with the heat. Snakes without number
were discovered by the hunters. The
heat, instead Of diminishing, was found
to increase the higher they went up the
mountain side. People well acquainted
with the geology Of the province declare
that the location of this volcanic noun
tain has been fixed to a nicely. Their
theory is that the bituminOus coal, in
which the mountain range is known to
be rich, has become ignited, forming q
vast smOuldering mass far down in the
mountain and making mighty cauldrOn

The Promenade Concert -Trotting Races
on the Ice-The Ice Yacht Regatta
Opening of the Russian Slide
Polo Tournament.

The second day of the carnival was a
most brilliant and successful one in every
respect. Everything passed off with the
utmost smoothnesS, rs well AS sparkle,
and the thousands of pleasure seekers now
thronging our city had, we venture to say,
one of the most thoroughly delightful days
in their earthly experience thus FAR. The
various committees of the Coasting club
had thoroughly familiarized themselves
with their duties, and there was not a
single hitch or disagreeable circumstance
connected with the management of the
sports from first to last.
The attendance was very large,
hundreds having come in on all the
trains the preceding Afternoon ana even
ing and many having driven III TO the
city from the surrounding towns. The
weather also was magnificent, during the
greater part of the day, slight snow
storm in the early morning only serving
to put the coasting hills and slides III adj
mirable condition, and to greatly improve
the sleighing. The AR was coid ann
bracing, the wind having shifted 10 the
north and in the afternoon the clouds
cleared away and the sun shOne brightly
upon the gay carnival scenes and sports,
BY ten O'Clock a. m. the streets were
filled with the brightcolored costumes OF
the carnivallers Some bewlluerlng com,
binations in ladies' suits were the observed
of all observers, as the fair occupant
thereof tripped along, unconscious OF the
admiration they were exciting, The snow
storm was well over by II O'Clock, and
throngs made their way to the promenade

hills The excellent sleighing was alsC
taken advantage Of and sleighing parties

~ tne EulIOI OF inc Free Press
a very serious defect in the fine spun
argument of your correspondent A. ID. b.
in favor Of the district system of schools
is that facts do not correspond with his
theory. That system" he says, Claws the
responsibility of providinga good school
upon each family and citizen that is to
he benefited by it," The fact is they do
not assume any such responsibility. 1t
gives to each one the opportunity to do
something practical and efficient by voice
and vote" But the fact is that the leach
one" does not embrace ''the opportunity"
a few in each district meet in annual
meeting, elect officers, vote to have Just
what school the law requires, appoint Il
committee who Is expected to see that his
niece or nephew, or that of some other
family in the district that has 4ided in
his election to the important office, is
placed in the school. And there 1.-The re
sponsibilty" and "the opportunity ends
The school opens the teacher pa Sses away
the hours, and it closes. The interest
and zeal' for II good school" fizzles out
with the school meeting, The personal
duty" upon which your correspondent
lays 50 much stress is forgotten till the
next annual school meeting, when the
same farce Is re-enacted. Parents take
no personal interest in the school unless
their children come under the rod of cor
rection, and then they are full to over
flowing. Visiting the schools, encourag
ing the teacher, is the exception. If he or
she succeeds in getting through it with
out trouble" he or she is IAN excellent
teacher" The theory Of your correspond
ent is well enough, but the facts are all
against it,
The town system does not take
away from the citizen or the family the
responsibility or the opportunity to work
for the scho d." Your correspondent : s.
serts what he cannot prove, and
with the facility for knowledge of the
workings of the town system in his own
vicinity, he ought to be better inform, d
than SO to state 1T rather adds to that ''re :
sponsibility." and gives them increase d
opportunities ito work for the school,"
for it opens to their children the prospect
ot higher education than the district
school can promise them. The committee

no more power ito determine the number

all that pertains to the running OF the

the schools under their charge. And To-
Gated as they should be in different pOr-
tons of the town, and selected from
among the Wise>t and most Intelligent
citizens, is it a fair, or y tenable supposi-
ton to make, that the schools of the town
