Quite a number of families win move
from Ontario TO Grenfell, and other
points in Eastern Assiniboia early in
the spring.
Since September last twenty-scven
families have left Michigan and secured
new homes in Manitoba and the Cana
dian Northwest.
A short time ago a caravan Of five
wagons bearing the families and house
hold effects of number of French set
tiers passed through Morden, Manitoba,
on their way TO new homes near Car
man, Manitoba. These settlers had
driven all the way from Kansas.
Mr.. Il. Burnett, of Craiglea, Manitoba
lately sold 500 acres Of land TO two Cana
dians who eight years ago emigrated TO
Dakota, but who have now decided TO
locate in Manitoba, being satisfied that
the Canadian country offers the best
chances.
Every indication points TO an inn
mensely increased settlement in the
Canadian Northwest next season. The
manifold advantages Of the country are
now better understood and practical
farmers and others anxious 10 better
their conditions in life are turning to

If Secretary Noble can have his
way, the Pension attorneys will
soon have to seek new employ
ment He is working to get every
state in the union to adopt
system similar to what has been
working satisfactorily in Minneso-
ia, Wisconsin and Massachusetts,
for some time. That is, for ex-
soldiers Of the several states to
file their applications for pensions
with the Attorney General Of the
state, who prosecutes the claim
before the pension office, without
cost to the claimant. The House
committee on Invalid Pensions
seems to be in sympathy with Mr..
Noble, for it has made a favorable
report on a bill reducing the
attorneys fee to So for prosecuting
applications for increase of pen
sions, on account Of increase of
disability.

Secretary ProctOr's family had a
narrow escape Saturday afternoon.
They had just left large double
sleigh to go into a store, when the
horses in some manner became
frightened and ran away, smashing
the sleigh to pieces and badly
jnjuring the driver. The runaway
team was recognized by many
people as that Of Secretary
Proctor, and a rumor was soon
flying around town that the Secre-
tary, Mrs. Proctor, and their two
boys had been killed. There was
the widest excitement until it was
learned to be untrue.

Bonaparte Turns Pale.

A few nights before the 18th Brumaire
a little scene was enacted at my house
which would be void of interest but
for the circumstances.
Gen. Bonaparte, then lodging at Rue
Chantereine, had come to have talk
with me about the preparations for the
eventfl day. was then living in Rue
Taitbout, in a house which has since be-
come No. "a, believe 1t stood at the
back OF a courtyard, and running from
the first floor there were galleries which
led to wings looking Oh the street. Idly
drawing room was lighted with several
candles. 1t was o'clock in the morn
ing, and we were in the middle of very
animated conversation when we heard a
great noise N the street. To the rum
bling Of carriages was added the gallop-
ing of an escort of cavalry.
Suddenly the carriages stopped right
before the door Of my house. The gen.
eral turned pale, and I quite believe /
did the same. The idea struck Us both
at the same time that they were coming
to arrest Us by order Of the directory.
blew out the candles and crept stealthily
along the gallery to one of the outside
wings, from which I could see what was
going On IN the street. For some time l
was at loss to make anything out of
the tunult, but at last I discovered the
somewhat grotesque cause.
AT this epoch, the Paris streets being
very unsafe at night, when the gambling
houses closed at the Palais Royal all the
money that had been used for the bank
was collected and placed in cabs, and the
banker had been allowed by the police to
have his cabs escorted by gendarmes, at
his expense, to his home in the Rue de
Clichy, or thereabout. That night one
of the cabs had broken down just in
front of my house. and that was the
reason of the halt, which lasted for about
a quarter of an hour. We had hearty
laugh, the general and /, over our panic
very natural though it was when we
knew, as we did, the tendencies of the
directory and the extreme measures 1t
was capable Of taking.-Talleyrand's

Mislaid Money.

Here is little anecdote from which sew
eral deductions might be drawn. 1t might
be used as an argument against over activi-
ty, for instance, or as showing that a man
may nave money about his person and still
have no ready money. The Boston Courier
relates that a small boy riding in street
car was unable to sit quietly, as passengers
in public conveyance ought to do. He
had his fare in his hand, but now and then
laid it on the seat or put it into his mouth
"a filthy habit-when he needed both
hands to execute one of his nervous gym
nastic movements.
He was just in the middle of lively at
tempt to pick up bit of paper with his
left hand twisted under his right leg when
the conductor came along for the fares.
The small boy sat up suddenly, and at
once began to gasp and choke in manner
really alarming. The conductor looked at
him as if he expected him to go into a fit.
Instead of that, however, the poor fellow
recovered himself little, and stammered
out: You'll have to charge my fare to my
father, mister, please. I've swallowed my
nickel"

SIR CUPID.

Sir Cupid once, as have heard.
Determined to discover
What kind of man a maid preferred
Selecting for lover.
So. putting on a soldiers coat,
He talked of martial glory;
And from the wey he talked, they say,
She seemed to like-the storyi
Then, with smile sedate and grim.
He changed his style and station:
In shovel hat and CATERS trim
He made his visitation.
Hc talked of this. discoursed on that,
OF Palestine and Rermon;
And from the way he preached, they say.
She seemed to like-the sermon!
Then changed again, he came to her
A roaring, rafting sailor;
He cried, ''Ho, no, love you so!"
And vowed he'd never fail her.
He talked of star and compass true.
The glories of the ocean,
And from the way he sang, they say,
She seemed TO like-the notioni
Then Cupid, puzzled in, his mind,
Discarded his DISCUSSES.

Ny fancy much surprises"
"Why sop she cried, with roguish smile.

Send two people out of the room. Choose
the name of some noted character with as
many letters as there are people remaining
in the room. Having distributed the let
tiers in order, each must tacitly choose
some known character whose name begins
with the letter he or she possesses. When
the two previously sent out return they
are told with whom the name begins, and
find out by careful questioning, to which
only yes or no may be answered, who the
character is whom the person addressed
has chosen. Having found it they keep
the initial in mind and proceed to question
the second, and so on until the last enc
has been discovered.

THE KITTEN cARESSES THE DUCK.
large white duck that lived not long ago
at an English farm house and were dear
friends.
Everywhere the duck went the kitten
went; she would walk by her side, and
purr, and rub her head against the ducks
wing. Now and then the duck would stop
and run her bill over the kittens fur; the
kitten seemed to like this very much.
Sometimes she would stand on her two
little black hind feet and clasp her front
paws around the ducks neck. The kitten
never took any notice of the other ducks.
