Buildings and Exhibits to Cover One
Hundred and Twenty Acres-The
Nations of the World Will De
Asked to Contribute.

Toronto. Ont. May Canada is
going to have an international ex-
position. 1t is to run from May to
October, 1896. The exposition is to be
held in Montreal. The site will not
only cover the present exposition
grounds, but will take in the adjoining
land of the Mount Royal park, about
121 acres in all. On this the dominion
proposes to show her products and
industries and invite all nations TO eX-
hibit what they have to offer in return
for what she wants to sell.
The leaders of the enterprise are the
solid men of Canada. The head of the
committee on organization is the Hon.
Sir Donald A. Smith, president of the
Bank of Montreal. The chief worker
is J. H. Stiles, who was Great Britain's
chief commissioner at the recent San
Francisco fair. He has interested the
leading railways, institutions, munich
palities and business men and it is
assured now that about the time Of
the queens birthday next year the eX-
position will be opened. The buildings
will be oriental in character. There
will be structures devoted to fine arts,
manufactures, electrical and other ma
chinery. fisheries, forestry, horticul-
ture, agricultural, music, dairy pro-
ducts. and educational and women's
work

CAsABIANcA REVISED.

The boy stood on the packers deck
When all had fled below,
OF sea-sickness he did not reck-
Its pangS he did not know.
And so he staggered in his tread
AS naughty as a shah,
A creature with a swollen head
Who would not mind his pa.
The boat was off, he would not go.
Despite his fathers word;
That father having drinks below.
No more his joys deferred.
So, though the dust flew thick and white
Without the harbor bar.
Quoth he, "Ill have a jolly night!'
And lit big cigar.
"Ohl come belowr' the steward cried,
And drink some bottled BEER
The whistling shrouds alone replied
The boy was much too queer.
He felt the deck beneath his feet
Begin to heave and drop,
And sinking Imply on a seat,
He wildly shouted Stop
And shouted not another word.
For. dropping past the light.
The boat was Scudding like a bird
Through inky depths of night.
She reeled and shuddered through the
The sP Winds did snort and puff.
And. as the daily papers say,
'Cross-channel passage rough"
There came a grewsome lurch to leeward:
The boy. OH where was he?
Ask of the waves, or ask the steward
Ask any one but me.
Pulled up with vain and foolish pride,
Full previously he sinned;
But the surest thing to humble r'side"
is half a gale of wind.

"prisciIIa.

The sweet tuneful stranis Of ''Fris-
ella enticed another large audience
to the theatre last evening. We were
scarcely aware of now much real
talent existed in our midst, till dainty
Priscilla and her gentle Puritan sis
tiers charmed our ears with melody IN
the theatre, whilst a burnt-cork ele-
ment which ''growed up all in our
own garden fairly shook us mentally
and physically with their whimsical
jokes and side splitting songs, down
in the Opera house. Truly we knew
not what we were possessed of till
the hand of time and opportunity UNI
earthed to our astonished eyes and
ears such gems of song, dance, wit
and humor. There is no question Of
the skill both of Professor Krouse and
Mr.. Lask in their training of this COM
pany of young singers. This Is proven
by their perfect knowledge both Of
the business of the play and of the
music: but now that they feel thor
oughly sure of their ground, we urge
upon each and everyone of them,
principals as we'll as chorus, TO let
their voices out and show whether it
is not possible for them to fill the bis
theatre with a greater volume. Try
this tonight.

VALIDATED THE ASSESSMENT.
Some Changes Attended to BY Ajax
Mining Company Directors.

There having been some serious defects
in the wording of the advertisement esll.
ing upon the stockholders of the Ajax
Mining company to make assessment pay
ment of cents per share, the board OF
directors of the company last night re-
scinded the former action relative to as
sessments and reinstated the cents as
sessmeIt This last action taken by the
board will make valid the former levy.
The vacancy in the board of directors of
the company has been filed by the selec-
ton of Probate Judge McNally, who, in
company with Judge Boyle, Of Chicago,
have Just made purchases of company
stock until they are now pretty heavy
holders. Considerable of the H. N, Ryan
stock has been secured by the gentlemen
named. 1t is understood that Pennsyl-
v&nia parties are interested in the several
re. ent purchases of Ajax. stock. which
have been made. Judge McNaiily has
evidently turned his attention TO mining
more than formerly and he VIII make a
conservative member of the board.
The Ajax is again shipping ores, several
carloads of good grade ROCK being re-
ceived in this city yesterday. They came
from the old workings of the properties.
The showing in both of the drifts being
run from the 100 foot level of the new
shaft. is reported to be very encouraging.
