Two Il. Company. Three Is None.

A little row occurred at a Polander
boarding house at 0sceola last Sunday
night, in which one man received two bad
stabs, one in the elbow and another IN
the wrist. However, no legal action has
as yet been taken in the matter, and but
little has been said concerning it. 1t ap-
pears that six or eight miners and tram
mers were boarding with widow at o.
ceola, and that two OF the said boarders
were suitors for the widows hand. One
OF the two who seemed to be gaining in
her good wishes was put out Of the house
by the Others about two weeks ago, but
was invited back last Sunday night. A
good deal OF beer was consumed during
the evening and late at night the two
mentioned before commenced quarreling,
with the result that one was stabbed.
The injured man wanted revenge, but his
opponent has not been seen or heard OF
since.

Prosperity dependent Upon Rivers,

What would happen to the world il
the rivers were to dry up? The North
American waters are said to have been
IN process of drying up for the past six
or seven years. The water about Mon
treal is some four feet below its depth
this time last year. If the st. Lawrence
and Its tributaries should fail as much
more next year. Canada would be al
most untenable. But this, we NAV ven
ture to predict, is not going TO occur.
Inc conditions as they are arc sufficient
~ distressing. Our most vital interest
IN Canada is the forwarding interest.
without it Montreal would disappear
as Palmyra did when caravans, took an.
other route, and would probably, after a
similar lapse Of time, show far less
worthy ruins to mark the spot where
once 1t was. Our grain is for the pres
ent damned back III the canals, and the
steamships coming to carry it off are
tearing their bulls Oh unusual rocks and
getting laid mp. Most interesting is the
commission Of the science department of
McGill university, to measure the out
now OF the river at what we would fain
hope Is the lowest point it will reach IN
our day Montreal Witness.

before.
The effects are very prominent, and a
veritable muscular delirium follows. in
which the horse displays unusual speed
and often unexpectedly wins the race.
This agitation continues, and the driver
has difficulty in SLOWING down" the
horse after the race is over; not unfre-

haustion which follows is not marked.
