JOSEPH ROYAL.

career as a journalist. It was in LIE
Nouveau Monde that he first attracted
attention to his trait of thinking and
acting for himself. Although Con-
servative, he fought against his leader,
Sir George E. Cartier, and the powerful
corporation of the Sulpicians on the
question of the division of the Catholic
parishes Of Montreal. It required much
independence of character and energy to
enter campaign against such powerful
opponents as Cartier and the Sulpicians,
who welded at that time an immense
influence in Montreal.
Mr.. Royal was elected to the Domin-
ion parliament in 1880 by a Manitoba
constituency and succeeded in having a
committee appointed to study the FEAST
bility of railway from Winnipeg to
Hudson bay. Out of this came the in
corporation of the Hudson Bay Rail-
way company, which will probably one
day exert an immense influence on the
development of the Canadian northwest.
In 1888 Mr.. Royal was appointed lieu
tenant governor Of the Northwest Terri
tories, position which he held for the
regular term Of five years to July 1,
1898, and in which he was continued
until last December. IT,
In his social life Mr.. Royal is charm
ing, and his conversation is most at
tractive He is possessed of a thorough
and varied learning, speaks with facil-
ity both French and English and is
equally popular with the leading men
Of both political parties. His intimacy
with Lieutenant Governor Chaplain is
personal as we'll as political, and sig
nificant rumor has it that the manu-
script Of his pamphlet was submitted
to and approved by Mr.. Chapleau, at
whose residence Mr.. Royal spent few
days just prior to its publ .
This is not matter Of surprise Ia
Canada, as it is well known that Mr..
Chapleau has on several occasions pro-
nounoed in favor Of independence, and
that he went out Of the Dominion gov
ernment on account Of serious disagree
ment between himself and his former
colleagues on questions Of the highest
import

How to Set the Table.


There is no fixed rule in regard to the
laying Of tables. The undercloth should
be of thick canton flannel, over which
the tablecloth is smoothly spread. Each
cover should have knives, forks and
spoons and tumbler. Saltcellars and
butter plates, water carafes, pepper jugs,
spoons of medium and large size, should
form part of the table equipment. Small
casters are sometimes used, very unob-
trusive in appearance.
For the breakfast after the cloth is
laid a meat cloth, embroidered in some
simple design, is placed at the foot of
the table. The cups, saucers, teapot,
chocolate Jug and coffee urn head the
mistress place at the board. At each
cover is the knife and fork, with salt
cellar and butter plate. There should be
mats to match the meat cloth or tiles,
which are generally used. A dish Of
fruit should be the decoration of the
center.
For luncheons en- famille the laying
of the table is on the same principle as
the breakfast, the menu differing.

A Word of Caution.

The New York Tribune says: Now
that black moires have become fashion
able it is we'll to recall the fact that
these goods are not equal to satin or
faille francais in durability. The process
of watering them, which necessitates
the use of heat, tends to weaken the silk
unless the fabric is of a pure, unques-
toned quality. A good quality Of MORE
will probably wear almost as well as
satin, but inferior qualities Of watered
silks are to be stunned, whether in
moire antique or the softer MORE fran
Gals. lin spite of the present popularity
Of black, it will find a powerful rival in
the new carmelite browns, which are a
dull, neutral color, more becoming to
the complexion than black and equally
suitable as foil for brighter colors

Pullman Conductor Barker, who was
on the train. said that the first thing
he noticed out of the ordinary was
when the train was brought to a
standstin. About the same time he
heard shot and at once realized the
situation. II sat down in one OF the
seats" he said, land waited for de-

to try to do anything. Several pas

valuables out OF sight and reach. One
of the passengers took out roll OF
bills, which he said contained $1,000,
and hid It under the seat. He Just
dropped It on the floor and gave II a
kick to send 1t out of sight. Another
gentleman, who took to be u travelling
man, put his watch, a handsome time
piece, in his hat and then drew the hat
down over his eyes tightly"
The porter of the Pullman was the
Big Ike OF the occasion; at least while
the train stood on the track in Fort
Worth. He was telling a knot of lis
teners all about 1t. and his description
was indeed interesting. His hearers in-
cluded both blacks and whites.
The train pulled out OF the city about
forty minutes behind schedule time.
