OTTAWA, Oct. 19.-The officers of the gov
eminent Arctic steamer Alert which has just
returned from an exploring expedition to
Hudson's Bay report strange phenomenon
which they experienced during their recent
voyage The story is told as follows:
Southampton Island was made at noon
on August 80, the compass working very
badly. Leaving there after taking observa-
lions the vessel proceeded to Diggs, but on
account of bad weather did not arrive there
until the Both During the night of the Both
it got unusually dark, the air being filled with
dense smoke which smelt like burning pitch.
The sea, it is represented, was literally on
fire, while on the deck of the steamer the
smoke was so thick that one could not see
his hand before him. A furious gale was
blowing at the time and the lead was the
only guide Captain Gordon, commander of
the expedition, reports that he is OF the opln-
ion that great fires were raging in the center
of Labrador and that the dense smoke and
heat which about that time were experienced
along the coast from the gulf of St. Lawrence
to Cane Breton were due to this cause"

nrags On In A Spiritless Way And Prices Show Slight Falling Or At The Close.


 New York March g. 1886.
 The only news of impoi tance current this morn ing was the announcement that the Reading reor- e,anization scheme had been practically agreed to by all the leading parties interested and the strike on the southwestern roads. The rumors to the ef- feet that the next Western Union dividend would be passed over were revived. The feeling through out the morning was weak and prices declined a- most continually on a compai ativey small amount of business The greatest weakness was displayed bv Lackawanna, Missouri Pacific and Erie pre- ferred. The lowest prices of the morning were touched about il o'clock, when the decline ranged from L to per cent. From this on there was slight recovery by midday. The sales to noon were 169 900 shares 49 900 of which were in Lackawanna and s6 900 in Reading The market extremely dull during the last half of the day Trading orag ged along in spiritless and attracted little or no attention The cliques confined ther efforts mostly to supporting their respective favoritss and succeeded in keeping values well up, notwithstand- ing the fact that all indications pointed to pro tracted fight between the southwestern roads and their striking employees, and also that nearly one half million in gold bars hA been engaged for ex- portation thus far this week. The closing prices as rule were lower than last night but in most in- stances the changes were insignificant. Canada Pacific exceptionally strong on the belief that the British government will establish line of mail steamers India and China OF the Pacific in con- nection with the road and that the road will get about $500 GOO annually for carrying the mails.

Their Second Grand Concert. Supper And Ball-PresentatioH of Badges
 Speeches and Song.
 The Sons of St. George held their second grand concert, supper and ball in Arion hall on Monday night when about s5O were pres ent The affair was conducted by Brother R. Loveday, assisted by B. J. Fletcher and the following committees:
 Floor Comneittee-E NJ Bowman, c. Capsey, R. Loveday, I. Powell, w c. Nudge, James Thomas, T. Marsh
 Reception Committee-I Keast, G. Robins, R. J. nawken. E: Howse l. H. Durant. J. Wilson, R. F. Shephard, G. Darley. H. Jones Rigglesworth.
 The concert commenced with an overture by Harmony orchestra, and after a short speech from W. Hawken & song was ably rendered by Miss Aggie MeCabe and was encored. It was followed by Brother R. Loveday and Brother Taylor, of Walling- ford, who were encored. Two quartettes were then ably rendered by Miss Fletcher, Miss Northrop, Brothers R. Fletcher and M. Honiven. Badges were presented to Past Presidents P. P. Wilson, I. Keast, G. Rob- ins and E. J. Winder. Brother Hawken in presenting the badges stated it gave him great pleasure in being the medium of con-
 
 by they would be able to recall happy asso- citations with the order. He knew they would not regard the intrinsic value of the gift but rather the principles of which they were the emblems, viz.: fraternity, concord and love and the spirit in which they were given. And as they looked back upon action performed and duties done for the welfare of the order with which their own interests were identi- fled, the badges would be prized souvenirs. He hoped they would les that be their best reward to gain the approval of their own conscience as we'll as the esteem of their brothers of the order who hoped they might be long spared to labor in their midst, and after serving their day and generation might fall asleep bearing the sword and shield of St. George. The grand march was led by Bro. R. Loveday and wife, and consisted of about 100 couples. Music by Harmony or chestra. Prompting by Prof. Booth. About 100 couples did good service to the viands, &c., which Bro. Barkentin supplied.
 Dancing was continued to nearly o'clock. Altogether it was grand success, much to the satisfaction of the order. A few invited guests were present from Southington, Meri- den, Wallingford and Bridgeport, who all expressed their pleasure at having been pres eut.

A STONE FOR BREAD.
The Failure of Beef Tea.

From the Philadelphia Press9
 One by one in turn, like the nostruna which sicken and deplete the system, the so-called strength-giving devices fall into disuse, to be supplemented by what the common sense of the people has discovered to be simpler and better. Not long since the Chicago "News" published the follow ing: ssChemistry has decided that the food value of beef tea Is so small that it can scarcely be chased as food. Physicians have for some time taught that to give a convaleseent beef tea-even the very strength of the msat'-is to give him 8 stone when ke asks for bread. What is needed is to add malt to some of the pre- pared food. This fact is net sufficiently well known to nurses, and hence conval- essence is often needlesslJ prolonged" About the same time another chemist declared that oatmeal, as . food had about as much value az 'tchips." Simul taneous with these disclosures there ap- peared in the Cincinnati "Times-Star," g discussion, at length, upon the merits of Beef Tea, in which appeared the results obtained by GeEman scientist from eX- periments upon two dogs to ascertain it's value as food. The two animals, com pardIlFe1y, were OI eQOd4 slISA&In aIlu health, and for stated time were given, respectively water and beef tea. The one to which beef tea was administered died, the other, sustained on water, lived. One half the restoratives do not restore prompt ly or efficaciously. Nature wants a help to get stronger. Medicine might further weaken. Physicians, without exception, now unite in prescribing pure whiskey absolutely free from fusel oil and other noxious and poisonous adulterations which are the chief objections to ordinary whis- kies. Not until recently, however, was the process discovered of eliminating the active and virulent poison. But upon the intro duction of Dufy's pure malt whiskey, which scientists declare to be absolutely pure it at once became the standard in medical practice, and combining @ food and stimulant quality, 1t is the recognized specific, in the place of these discarded nOstrunS.

Has Used Them Forty Years.

R. S. Day of Watsonville, Santa Cruz Co.,, California, writes, February 8, 1885: "When my wife was seventy three years old she was troubled with very bad cough, and it looked as if she would die of consumption. She would not call in a doctor, but commenced taking Brandreth's Pills, two and three every night. In three weeks she was completely cured and her health is now very good, and am sure the pills have prolonged her life as we'll as my own, for have used them forty years and am now eighty-four years old. They have been my only medicine"
