financially, but that the annexation
of American territory to Canada was
quite impracticable and would damage
the work. Our arguments carried no
weight, and the general considered
them unreasonable. When he spoke
of the national feeling he closed the
controversy by drawing his finger
down the map of North America in
four sections, declaring that ultimate
ly he intended to cut the countries in
three, joining each to a section of
Canada, to break down any national
feeling that existed.
1--WE said such division would ruin
the work in this country where the I'M
broken union of the states meant so
much. After the general returned to
England a lengthy correspondence fol-
lowed in which we gave a number of
reasons against this annexation. They
forced us to make the annexation and
at the present time the army work in
Dakota, north Montana and north
Washington is governed from Toronto,
and we have been told that the officers
hardly dared to let the citizens of
these states know that their money
goes to the Canadian headquarters.
1t was intended upon our removal from
command to divide this country so we
had built into our national headquar-
tiers a stone from each state to typify
the union one and inseparable.'
"Eighth-Though we repeatedly
urged after the resignation Of our chief
secretary, William Evans, that for the
sake of the advance and safety of the
work in America, it was absolutely
necessary to choose for that position
an officer from the ranks in this coun-
try who was an American citizen and
familiar with the thought and senti-
ment Of the American people, our re-
quest was ignored by international
headquarters. We wish the army no
evil. and should not have thus written

THE SECRET ORDERS.
MASONRY.

As many of the Masonic bodies have
dispensed with the second meeting.
usually held in the mClth, during the
heated season, not much activity mas
been perceived by the fraternity at the
Temple during the past week, and only
one lodge held its meeting.
On Thursday evening Nelson Lodge
No. 80 held its meeting, and had good
attendance of brethren present Work
was expected to be had in more than
one of the degrees, but the candidates
did not show up early in the evening,
consequently the work was dispensed
.with until next meeting, and the Off
GERS were not sorry, either, as it was
very warm in the lodge room. One Oh
the visitors present on the occasion was
Brother Kelly, member of Petroleum
Lodge, Oil City, and brother OF L. E.
Kelly, of Ohio Lodge No. l.
The meetings Tor the coming week
are Wheeling Commandery No. l, on
Monday evening, and as the knights
have received personal notice, there
will doubtless be a good attendance
upon that occasion. This will be the
only meeting IN the Temple during the
week, except some Of the bodies hold a
special, in which case personal notices
will be sent to their members.
Sir W. H. Grade has received a sam
pie copy of the book containing hun
dreds OF views Of the late Bosom parade
and festivities, and will have it at the
Temple at the meeting OF wheeling
Commandery for inspection, as well as
TO get the subscription of knights or
wheeling or tother communicates who
may desire it.
During the past week we were hand
ed copy of the Hartford Times OF July
14th. 1896, by our brother, Henry Spey-
er. and which contains a lengthy ac-
count Of the celebration Of the centen-
NAL of Templar.sm in Connecticut,
with a well written hS.ory OF Wash
ington Commandery No. l from its or
ganization. in 1896, to that date. If we
had time and space some items Of inter-
est to Knighthocd could be given at
this time which, know, would be in
teresting to the lovers of the orders Of
Knighthood.

Napoleon as g Gambler.

Lord Holland relates in his memoirs how once the military career of Napo- leon I, and herewith to a certain extent the fate of Europe, depended upon a game of hazard.
 When Napoleon was appointed for the first time as an independent command ing general of the Italian army, the di- rectory then at the head of France was not willing, or perhaps not able, to pro- vide enough money to defray the ex- penses of himself and his lieutenants to the seat of war and make a proper show as commanding general of so consider able an army at its headquarters. Napo- leon borrowed money from his friends, and after exhausting all his credit suc- ceeded in collecting 10000 francs.
 He gave the whole amount to Junot, a young officer who was known as a frequent visitor to the gaming tables, with instructions to lose the whole sum at the game or to win enough to return the amount doubled, as upon the result would depend whether he could accept the appointment as commanding general of the Italian forces, and also appoint OuuOU aS HIS duJuGduG1 d SG6p "uICu uo already contemplated.
 Junot went as ordered. Napoleon waited almost the whole night for his return. Finally, at o'clock in the morning, the officer entered and gave Napoleon 65, 900 francs with tho remark that he had gamblod away nearly the whole sum of 10000 francs before he had ot last Cuoooo6o6 i'm XUinn;,o Covoro high stakes in succession.
 Then Napoleon accepted tho appoint ment, which was destined 10 confer the highest glory upon him. JunCt became one of his marshals.

 The Pacific railroads funding bill, oftener spoken of as the Hunting bill, because it gives the railroad king almost all he asked for, will not get through at this session, whatever may be its fate at the next. That was definitely settled at a caucus of republican senators, regard less of whether the house passes the bill or not.
 ture congress in his veto of the river and harbor bill was about as successful as an attempt to convince a man who has made big winning on horse race that betting on horse races is utterly demoralizing and will certainly lead to the ruin of those who do it. Congress has made big win ming on the river and harbOr bill, as it's $17 10000 direct appropriation and the $62, ,OOO,0 900 carried by future contracts is very widely distributed over the country, and it is going to pass that bill over the presidents veto, regardless of his calling the bill stimulant to ''vicious saternal- ism,'' etc. Atleast that is what congress- men nearly all say. The bill has not yet actually been passed over the veto, but there is no reason to doubt that it will be before the close of the week. A man who usually keeps posted on such things said to-day that the political future of more congressman was dependent upon the river and harbor bill becoming law than upon any similar measure ever before congress. Party lines have not been drawn on the bill it was get all you can all around, and nearly all of the hustlers got sonnet thing for their districts.

People used to dig such roots as dan- delion, sarsaparilla, yellow dock, etc., etc., every spring and brew home made root beer from them. This home made beer was used as tonic and beverage by the whole family, just as soon as they could get the roots out of the ground in the spring. Nowadays, and for many years past, Williams Root Beer Extract has taken the place of the root digging and brewing process, as it saves a great deal of time and trouble, and contains in concentrated form all the valuable roots and herbs that were used by the old folks years ago.
 The sale of Williams Root Beer Ex- tract has increased year by year, until it has become leading article in thousands of stores, and many dealers buy several gross at once, in order to supply the large demand.
 The fact that root beer was in demand has led to the manufacture and sale of many limitations of root beer that contain no roots. In buying root beer extract you should buy the kind that does the system good, by improving the appetite and aiding digestion. Williams Root Beer Extract can be relied upon, as it is the production of the we'll known Drug House, the Williams & Carleton Go. of Hartford, Conn.

The Yale crew will leave New York Saturday for England to take part in the races at Henley. Some of the college men think that they will make a good showing, but hardly expect the crew to win against the well-nigh invincible Eng fish crews. The veteran coach, Bob Cook, says that this years eight is the best Yale has ever had. His conclusion, barring accidents, is that Yale will win the regretta in spite of the prestige of the English crews.

A terrible accident occurred at Moscow last Saturday during the popular fete of the coronation ceremonies, opposite the Petroffsky palace. It is estimated that over 40O,0 persons attended to receive the free food and beer and mugs, as sou venirs of the occasion, to be given away. When the distribution of the food and gifts began the people in the rear began to push forward, and soon the crowd was surging mass of humanity. Men, women and children were thrown down, and were trampled to death or seriously injured. The authorities were helpless for time. It is estimated that $500 peo- pie were killed and large number in- jured. The czar, when informed of the extent of the disaster, expressed profound sorrow, and gave orders that the sum of 1000 roubles be paid to each bereaved family.
