Indignant.

There used to be an old porter at a
certain Irish railway station who was
more remarkable for independence of
character than attention to his duties.
On one occasion two Of the directors
were travelling over the line and noticed
that the name Of this station was not
called, the neglect being the more Sc
rious as it was a junction. This was
made the subject Of complaint, and old
Charley, who was the delinquent, was
promptly brought to book and repri-
manded.
He was very wroth that any one
should find fault with him and thirsted
for revenge. So, keeping lookout un
til he saw the directors on their return
journey, he stood opposite their carriage
and shouted in stentorian voice:
"Cookstown Junction! Change here
for Randalstown, Castledawson, Mag
herafelt, Moneymore and all stations on
the Cookstown line and don't say, ye
blaggards, ye weren't towld AN

rialty of the stock interests OF this portion

OTTAWA, cont. }, November 20.
Parliament has been called to
meet on January I'd to settle the
Manitoba school question. The
bill has been printed and provides
for the restoration of Roman
Catholic schools in Manitoba, with
full power given them for their
religious exercises. The history
Of England as written by Roman
Catholic authors may be used, but
the schools must be up to the re-
quired standard of efficiency be-
fore they can be paid any money
out of public funds. Their claim
to the public grant is to be meas
ured altogether by their standard
of efficiency,
1t is stated that Clarke Wallace
Controller of Customs, sovereign
grand master of the Orangemen
order, has informed Sir Macken-
zie Bowel that if an attempt is
made to pass the remedial bill he
will resign from the Cabinet.
Those who have taken the census
of Parliament say that the Govern
ment cannot .cape defeat if they
attempt to restore the Catholic
schools in Manitoba.

Honolulu streets are so well
kept and the hack service SO per
feet that unless there is regular
downpour of rain, ladies will do
their shopping just the same as in
clear weather. 1t is one of the
peculiarities of the people! When
they see or hear of good thing
they are going to have it, particu-
larry when it is something out of
the regular order of things, and
is not coated over with high
prices. We have lots of good
things in our store that look as
though they should cost pot of
money. The quality warrants it,
but we give them to you at a fair
profit over what they cost us.
Nearly every one can afford to
spend a dollar and quarter for a
present for male friend, particu-
larly if that friend is a smoker.
Ii you have the money and the
smoker friend let us suggest one
of those cute little five o'clock tea
kettles from the spout of which
extends a wick saturated with
alcohol. They are really the
cutest little things you ever saw
for the money, and the same thing
exactly that other dealers have
been charging twice as much for.
That shows that we are cutting
prices in two.
Ii you have use for chamber
sets-wash bowls, pitchers, etc,
look at those in our stock. At
the price, from IS to So, you
never saw their equal. New
shapes and new decorations,
nothing conventional. Every
thing up to the center.
Store open evenings from now
until Christmas.

They Were whipped"

Governor Matthews is telling a good
story he heard in the South recently.
In a valley in the northern part of Geor-
gia, between two mountains which shut
out all communication with the out
side world, there lived an old planter
who. while an ardent adherent of the
Southern cause, was too badly crippled
by infirmities to shoulder musket and
march barefooted.
But he had a son whom he sent, and
after the boy had disappeared down the
road the old man waited for the news
Of the strife. Occasionally rumOrs Of
Southern victories would float over
the mountains and the old man-Uncle
ST, he was called-would rejoice and
take an unusually large dose Of mint
iuleD. At other times when reverse
news came, and it was reported that
the gray had been turned back, the old
man would bitterly lament and use the
same remedy for grief and sorrow that
he used to quiet his joy. Through it
all he had abundant faith in the u1ti-
mate victory of the Confederate army,
and any doubt expressed would meet
with stern rebuke
The years wore on and news failed to
arrive. The valley was deserted, and
| there was no way to learn the course OF
events. The old man smoked his pipe
and waited impatiently for news. One
morning as he sat on the front porch
with his pipe, far down the dusty road
anDeared the form of a solitary pedes-
trian. Gradually he approached. and
! the feeble vision of the aged planter
| recognized his long-absent son. The
