MUST MAKE A MOVE

Compel the-Dominion to
Show Its Hand.
n ADJOURNMENT UNTIL MAY
Organ Of the Manitoba Govern
ment Makes a Vigorous
Reply.

CHICAGO, March 2S.-A dispatch from
Winnipeg, Man., says:
There was decided sensation at the
close of the sitting when the govern
ment announced that it would adjourn
the legislature OIL Friday until May.
This means that the remedial order
cannot be discussed before adjournment.
The government say this action Is
taken in order to gain time to consider
the legal points involved. Prendergast,
leader of the Catholic party, pronounces
il q scheme to force the Dominion gov
eminent to take immediate action. He
thinks the house will readjourn from
time to time without discussion, until
the Dominion government makes some
decided move.
The government has already opened
communication with certain eminent
Constitutional lawyers and submitted
to them for their advice, some OF the
chief points affecting the jurisdiction OF
the legislature regarding schools The
opinions of these gentlemen will doubt
less have bearing on the policy to be
adopted by the government before the
house reassembles in May. 1t ii
thought by some local politicians that
the early dissolution of the Dominion
parliament may be one of the possible
results of the adjournment of the legis
lature,

Judge Hammond Scores the Contendliug
Factions of Elks In Court.
CLEVELAND, O., March 29.-Judge
Hammond delivered the charge to the
jury in the B. P. o. Elks case in the
United States court. He sharply criti-
cized the members of the order for en-
gaging in what he termed the petty
differences which had disrupted the or
ganization.
mo quarrel ever had mrre trivial
beginning" the Judge said, ''or was
more useless than the one we now have
before US. 1t is astonishing that full
grown men would allow SO petty diff
ference to grow into the proportions we
have here, where q famous and useful
social society with rich belongings, has
been disrupted, seemingly without hope
of reconstruction"
Continuing, Judge Hammond said
that the amount involved was sufficient
in sentimental value of paraphernalia t.
give the court jurisdiction. He said the
jury must consider that Atlantic City
was the legal meeting place for holding
the convention in dispute, because il
was fixed by the grand lodge and the
grand trustees, and the subsequent re-
moval of the grand trustees III nowist
changed the legal meeting place. After
some further discussion of the lega
phases of the case by Judge Hammond
tha Jury retired.

BUTTE, Mon, March 28.-The great

Judgment of the court, amounting to q
victory for the First National bank

Davis will, but making liberal allow
ance by agreement with the New York
and Boston contestants, represented by

consent of all parties to the suit and the
following decree of distribution entered:
The Sheffield heirs, or the children OF
Asa Davis, are given one-twenty-fifth

before, 1880 in 1894, and 1877 600 in

show another decrease this week.
The -four market, in sympathy with
weaker wheat, was pretty quiet last
week, buyers at once drawing away.
Export was especially slow.

Considerable business Being Done in Fig.
Coke Prices High.
NEW YORK, March 29-The Iron Age
says: The official announcement that
the price of Connellsville coke is to be
$l.35 at oven, has removed fruitful
topic for guessing. The figure is higher
than was generally believed probable,
and represents an advance OF 10 to 81
cents. The advance will meet with
much resistance, since there is chance
that it may not be firmly maintained.
Furnacemen will draw upon accumu.
lated stocks until they are exhausted,
SO that the coke trade is expected to be
pretty dull early i'll April.
The steel market has been quiet,
prices being close to $l5 at Pittsburg.
The market was not as strong. how
ever, rs the situation in raw material
would appear to demand.
Tn,.s far the finished iron and steel
trade does not indicate the slightest
tendency toward higher prices in spite
of prospective advance i'll cost. In
Pittsburg a block of 5000 tons Of oper
hearth plates has been sold for the AL
legheny water works at the lowest price
on record for this grade Of material.

Orr,n Of the Manitoba Government Re-
plies to Ottawa Oficials.
WINNIPEG, March 2S.-The remedial
order on separate schools does not come
up i'll the legislature for several days,
but it is nevertheless the one topic OF
the day here. Both the government
and opposition are holding frequent
caucuses, and what the outcome Will be
is difficult to predict. One thing is GER
tain-the Manitoba government will re-
sent the interference by Ottawa on ed
ucational matters. There is every indi-
cation that the policy of the opposition
in the legislature will be to advocate
suY{1e notifications in the school law.
In other words, some sort OF compro-
mise. The opposition OF Premier
Greenway and the government Is
clearly outlined. The newspaper organ
of the government has this official
statement under the heading:
.Manitoba's Answer"
."The remedial order has been read in
the legislature. We are asked to re-
store the school system that was i'll op-
Grafton previous to 1890. Let Quebec
and Ottawa rest assured that the
restoration will never be made. Mani
toba has too keen a sense OF justice, too
much regard for truth and equity to
recognize as IA religious arlstocracy an
element of its population by no means
the most worthy. As ii civilized people

ferrous demand that they should turn!

by constantly failing to cure with local

Japanese Fishermen.

Fishing, indeed, is one of the h'yaku-
sho's chief: sports in summer, and many
are the devices that he uses-the hook,
the net, the bow, and the gun. A favor
tie scheme is to put into water during
the heat of the day chinai fruit and no
bunoki leaves, both astringents. When
their juice has permeated the water the
fish leap about ins pain. and then are
easily taken. If he is fishing in the
large streams he uses an ingenious net,
the toami (the throwing net. 1t is
circular. and about twelve feet in diam
eter. Heavy leads are fastened to the
cord that forms the circumference. and
a strong line is attached to the slightly
bagging cent? He folds it upon his
arm and throws it from his boat. or
sometimes from the shore, in such a
"a hat it is spread out fiat as it
strikes the water where the fish are
gathered eating from the ball of boiled
rice and barley that he threw in a mo-
ment earlier. A the leads sink they
pull down the like a dome, and
when it is pulled up by the line at the
centre the leads are drawn together by
their own weight before they can leave
the bottom, thus imprisoning the

G1mmal Rings.
Interesting relics of old days are
the gimmal ring, used both for
marriage and betrothal. They were
made Of two or three movable hoops.
n of which was worn by each of
the lovers during the betrothal; but
at the marriage the completed ring
was united again, and served for the
keeper or w~edding-ring, the hoops
being kept together by clasped
hands, and sometimes attached to a
heart. In the North of Europe the
wedding-rlng opened in the centre,
so that there was Dom for the finger
to enlarge with age; but in this
case it was not of plain gold, but
chased and engraved. No doubt the
double and triple gimmal rings
originated in the old idea of a
betrothal couple dividing a coin,
each keeping half.
