1t was reported last night that Amos
Harrison, four miles south, had been found
dead on his farm. That he was out hunt
ing alone, and when found was shot in the
breast, and it was concluded that he had
accidentally shot himself. The coroner,
however, last night had not been notified
of any such an accident, and the chances
seemed to be in favor of the report having
been untrue.

A number of handkerchief and some
baskets were waved vigorously on Main
near First yesterday by two ladies standing
in the middle of the street. They wanted
an electric car to stop. The car passed
them fifty feet and the ladies quite DELHI
erateiy reached the car. They paid their
fare and by the time the car had started
they discovered they were on the wrong
car. The car stopped and the ladies looked
at the money box and the two dear little
nickles making one dime. They did not
want to leave. There was no hammer in
sight or the glass would have been broken
sure. They donated the man in charge a
few very hot words but he was afraid TO
answer.

educational Matters.

Mr.. EDITOR: 1t is feared by some
that the law l propose for condi-
tionally reducing the compulsory
school age will lower the educa
tionaI standard. [ do not think
that such will be the result. In the
great majority of cases those re-
naming in school now to the age
of fifteen know little more than
reading, writing and simple arith-
metic, and great many know less.
This is owing a great deal to the
constant shifting of families from
place to place in order to escape
sending their older children to
school. Managers of plantations
are constantly annoyed by the
threat: dispose my boy go school,
l go way Under the law, as it
now stands, "my boy" must 60 to
school till he is fifteen years old,
and so constant changes of resi-
dence take place. Under my plan
g my boy" must go to school until
he can pass satisfactory examina-
ton. Parents knowing this will
have a strong incentive to make
their younger children, between
six and twelve, use their time to
advantage-go to school regularly
and study faithfully.
The examinations of course
should be thorough and no sur
face knowledge allowed to pass.
If children show especial talent
and desire to learn, they can of
course go on with the higher
branches until they are fifteen or
even older as they often do at pre-
sent. The others being well
grounded in the rudiments are
equipped for the ordinary duties of
life, and their parents can have
three years use of their muscles
which now they lose.
Yours truly,
G. FL. DICKEY.

The CIeFgyman's Friends Predict . Long
 and Bitter Controversy.
 NEW YORK, July S,-In ecclesiastical circles of the Roman Catholic Church there is practically strict silence as to the ceneuring of DF. BurtseI of the Church of the Epiphany by the propa- ganda. The priest himself would not talk of his disputes with Archbishop Cor rigan, nor would Mgr. Preston be seen on the subject, That one effect of the the ordering of Dr. BQrtsell from the scure parish in the State was long since the conclusion of his friends.
 Dr. Burtssll Is one of the most learned priests in the United States and high authority on canon law, and several clsrgymep who are among his friends declared that they believed there would yet be terribly bitter fight, in which the now condemned priest would not be easily vapquished.
 The Archbishop will return in August Co his see, but it is rumored that he will not long remain at its head. AL though Rome may uphold him in a struggle with any of his priests, indi- vidually, yet according to well-infor m ed olerics the Holy See does not desire the arising of scandals at such frequent intervals in this archdiocese, and will probably in the very near future pro- vide for Dr, Corrigan elsewhere,
 Another eminent member of the hier- archy, Bishop O'Farrell, is already being mentioned as his probable sue cessor. Dr. O'FArrell was formerly pastor of St. Peters, in Barclay street.

A THREAT FROM ENGLAND.
The British Minister SHys Seizures bY
 Amerionn Vessels Win bs Resisted.


 Amerioan Vessels Win bs Resisted.
 WASHINGTON, July S.-Correspondenti are busy telegraphing to their papers the report that Sir Julian Paunce- tote haA officially notified MT. Blaine that if 6 single vessel flying the British flag Is seized by American revenue cut ters in Behring Sea or it's waters, the powerful British fleet now assembling at Victoria, B. C., will receive immediate orders to recapture the seized vessel, and force will be employed if necessary.
 Unless the revenue cutter making the seizure should strike, her flag to superior force, blood must follow and, while this may not necessarily lead to dec laration of war, a condition of things close to 1t must follow, which may we'll cause the gravest anxiety in the minds of all lEnglish-speaking people.
 When Secretary Blaine and Sir Julian Pauneefote first began to discuss the matter, and before they had really staggered Sir Julian by tntimsting that the only way in which the ques- tiop could be settled to the satisfac- tion of both parties was by entering into an agreement to keep out of Behring Sea the vessels of both Nations, permitting seals to be captured only by the company having rented the Privt- lege from the United States Govern ment.
 To enforce this agreement armed vessels of both Nations were to patrol the sea and capture all poachers. Such a proposition in such 8 vast body of water as Behring Sea was con sidered SO absurd that Sir Julian rejected it on the spot.
 He then made counter proposition, that during the periods when the seal are going and returning from the rock cries, it shall be unlawful for the yes sells of either nation to capture them, and that 6 zone be drawn around tho Pribylof group, inside of which British vessels should not be allowed to enter, The was to be merely an ad interim agreement, and the matter of damages | for seizures and all other details were to be settled by a commission of experts appointed by both Governments, and in case of disagreement neutral power | was to act as arbitrator.
 Sir Julian Pauncefote says there Is no foundation for the above statement and thinks that Secretary Blaine's absence from the city was food for such & con- lecture. He says, however, that he | will join MT. Blaine at Bar Harbor and sontinue the conference thera.
