OTTAWA, Ont, March 28.-In the
Commons this afternoon Hon. David
Mills resumed the debate on the Jesuit
estates question. He called attention to
the liberality shown in the United States
in religious matters and denied that the
Dominion Parliament was endowed with
authority to pronounce upon ecolesiasti-
cal affairs. He would accord to Catho-
lies the same privileges he wished to
enjoy. Although personally of the
opinion that the Catholic religion is in
some respects erroneous, he would not
think of interfering with the rights of

man OF the Interstate Commerce Com

legality of paying commissions on the

ii any, still pay commissions on passen-
ger traffic? If any, see if it is necessary
to summon them here in order to stop
it." A meeting will probably be called

He possessed a singular rectitude of
character. He was Inspired by pure
patriotism from the beginning of his ca

Observation-Disclosures
said to be Getting strong Hold
Upon Many women of America.

Said to be Getting strong Hold
Upon Many Women of America.
If one-half of what the doctors are say
ing all over the country is true, there
may soon be greater need of temper
ance reform among the women than there
ever has been among the men. Strong
drink, however, is not the monster by
which the women may be enslaved, but
a strong and poisonous drug equally
baneful in its effects.
This drug is antipyrine. The chemical
name for it is neutrality-suspicious." ="
but as it is rather long and might not be
easily pronounced by ladies who are not
orthographical experts, it has been called
simple antipyrine, and appears as such
in the medical books.
1t is white powder, slightly bitter,
and soluble in water. Until about q
wear ago it was prescribed for fever only,
but q French medical college recon.
mepded it for headaches and other pains
and disorders, and in this way it has
gained its grip on so many thoughtless
and nervous women.
In Chicago and many other places it is
said that the habit is gaining with alarm
ing rapidity, for the women take it for
every ill, and cannot believe that its
soothing effect can have any evil result
until the habit is thoroughly fixed upon
them.
It produces different results under diff
ferent circumstances, and, like many
other preparations, varies according to
the size of the dose. In large doses il
has been known to produce complete re-
Taxation and at the same time a loss oi
reflex action and death. In moderate OF
tonic doses it often produces convulsions
Its effect as stimulant seems to be very
much like that of quinine, and the ply,
sicians say that they do not understand
why it should get the hold on womeI
that it does.-[Bufalo Courier.

CAMDEN, n. j., March 29.-The Special
Committee of the Camden Board oi
Health, appointed to investigate the con-
dition of Buffers burial ground for col
ored people, in the rear of the Evergreen
Cemetery, developed the fact that the
State sanitary and burial laws have been
grossly violated, and that serious results
might follow during the coming hot
weather, and that an epidemic of death
dealing disease might result from the
surface interments. Thirty-fye tests
were made as to what depth
the bodies had been buried.
The iron struck the coffins eighteen
inches below the surface and in several
cases the bodies were only one foot
down. 1t was also said by the commit
tee that when they dug up pseVeral graves,
bones were turned up and the feet of
persons were plainly visible. Alto
gether, it is said, few bodies are buried
as deep as three feet, and the stencil of
decomposipg flesh makes the place q
nuisance and breeds disease.
Dempsey Butler, owner of the ground,
is said to be worth 100000 and is a mag
nate among the colored people. He said
tonight: 81 know nothing about the
ghastly rumors of dogs going into the
graveyard and eating human bones.
Dogs might have been seen there, but no
complaint has been made to my knowl-
edge. Bodies have been buried without
my knowledge and without permits, but
what they were cannot say"
The Inspector OF the Board of Health
says no permits of burial had been
granted for this cemetery for months,
yet it is claimed that there have been
burials in the interval. Probably the
State prosecution will await the action of
the Board of Ereeholdars.
