THE GREAT CANADIAN EXODUS.

While Americans think very little
about the Canadians and do not seem
to be inclined to make the slightest
effort to get more ofthe Canadian trade
or Canadian emigration, the Canadiars
themselves arediscussing very serious
~ whether and how they can lessen
the growing tendency Of their own peo-
pie to become citizens of the United
States.
Within the present week dispatches
have been received at Washington
stating that the Dominion Government
had determined to try to induce large
portion of the Canadians now in the
United States to return to their native
land
Prof. Goodwin Smith, the ablest au-
thoriIy on this growingly important
subject, in his recent work on Canada
and the Canadian Question, says that
q 1t is reckoned that there are now on
the south Of the line 900, 900 Of emf
grants from Canada and 5000, 600 Of
their children. A local journal finds
that it has 500 subscribers in the Uni
ted States, and believes that in fifteen
years it must have lost 1000 in that
way; and from another journal, issued
III one Of the choicest districts Of
Ontario, we learn that the population
has been almost at a standstill In
one weeE5oo persons went from St, John
and 400 from Montreal The Ameri-
cans may say with truth that if they
do not annex Canada they are annex
ing the Canadians, They are annex
ing the very flower Of the Canadian pop
ulation, and in the way most costly to
the country from which it is drawn,
since the men whom that country has
been at the expense Of breeding leave
it just as they arrive at manhood and
begin TO produce

Erancc and Siam.

LONDON, July "A dispatch to The
Standard from Bangkok, Siam, says
that French troops have occupied the
province of Luang Prabang, east of the
Me Kong river. hitherto vassal state
of Siam. The local French press has
persistently urged that the whole Me
Kong valley belongs rightfully to the
kingdom of AMMAN and Cambodia. The
Standard supposes that the occupation
of Luang Prabang is a prelude to an
eventual attempt by France to annex
Siam with the object possibly of assist
ing Russian DESIGNS in eastern Asia.

Makes the
Weak Strong

The marked benefit which people in run
down or weakened state Of health derive
from Hoods Sarsaparilla, coneluslvely proves
the claim that this medicine snakes the weak
strong" 1t does not act like n stimulant,
imparting fictitious strength from which there
must follow reaction of greater weakness
than before. but in the most natural way
Hoods Sarsaparilla overcomes that tired feel
ing, creates an appetite, purifies the blood,
and, in short, gives great bodily, nerve,
mental and digestive strength.

France Has Demanded Renaration.

PARIS, July I'm the chamber of
deputies N. Lauer attacked the govern
ment for failing to protect the life of
the merchant Rigaud, killed in Hayti
by order of Hippolyte. French citizens
in Hayti had been obliged to demand
the assistance of the German consul.
Minister Ribol said that the charge was
groundless. N. Lauer insisted on the
accuracy of his statement Minister
Ribol said that everybody who took
refuge in the French consulate had been
preserved from violence, thanks to the
energy of Minister Flesch, the French
representative. The enrolment of
Rigaud as a French subject was con-
trary to French law He was, there
fore, AHaytien; but as the cancellation
of his name had not been communicated
to the Haytien government France had
demanded reparation. Hayti entertained
the demand, knowing that France would
insist upon it.

AMSTERDAM, July 2.-The fiotilla es-
corting the Emperor of Germany and
his party arrived here, accompanied by
the Dutch squadron under Vice Admiral
de Josselin de Jong. This squadron
consists of the cruisers Koningin Neder-
landen, 3,400 tons; Van Galen, 2,160
tons, and Johan Willem Frisco, 3,400
tons; the steel protected cruiser Sumatra
of the Dutch colonial navy, three ar

itors. The emperor, who was on board
the imperial yacht Hohenzollern, en-
tered the Nord Zee kannal at the
Ymuiden mouth, where the yacht will
lie during his visit.

Upon landing at the dock here the
emperor was received by Queen Will
helmina Helena Paulina Mary, who is
only II years of age, and by the Queen
Regent Emma, Princess of Waldeck.
The queen and the queen regent were
surrounded by q brilliant gathering of
cabinet ministers. army officers, and
municipal and other authorities All

LONDON, July 2.-The Dukes of Con-
naught and Edinburgh and the Duke of
Clarence will meet Kaiser William at
Sheerness. The Prince of Wales will
greet the kaiser on his arrival at Wind

large enough to accommodate the suite,
many will have to be accumulated at
hotels. The military authorities are
distracted at the extraordinary requisi-
tons for troops for ornamental pur-
poses. The Prince of Wales has had a
long interview with the queen for the
purpose of settling a number of perplex-
ing questions about etiquette and pre-
cedence. The society paper called

without precedent since the marriage of
Queen Victoria, and that the kaiser is a

" Beauty tc1thOut grace

the French think. Whether it be true
or not, there are many American women
who DO not even possess the hook-bcau-

Why ? Because they're languid, cross

it is to be without pain or discomfort

In Wheeling, the most important In

are rather slow, but as wool moves

murder of Louis Drucker. On January
20, 1883, Constable Drucker, while at
tempting to arrest Scheele, who re-
sided at New Canaan, mo license"
town, for violating the liquor law, was
shot by Scheele, who had concealed
himself in an upper room of his house.
Scheele then attempted suicide by
shooting himself, but did not succeed,
was arrested, tried, and to-day suffered
the penalty of his crime. He met
death calmly, and died without a
struggle

WOOD COUNTY.

Prospects of CropS-The prospects are
quite encouraging for full yield of
nearly all crops, the acreage being fully
up to the average. In some instances
corn was destroyed by frosts, but at a
time when replanting could be done
with assurance, and that crop will be
up to the average. Wheat is doing
well, and will yield good returns.
Condition of Trade-Trade is not as
brisk as usual at this season of the
year, but stocks are kept up in antici-
patton of good crops, and more recently
business has livened with anticipation
of continuous good trade. Collections
are somewhat tardy in instances, but
the general run are promptly made and
general conditions are good.

Foreign Affairs had made careful in
