WONDERS or HUDSON'S BAY.
Half as Large as the Mediterranean and
FiIiet. With Fish,

Half as Large the Mediterranean and
FiIiet; With Fish,
HudsOns bay, the Mediterranean of
Canada, the most striking geographical
feature of North America, was the sub
ject of a lecture and debate at the
meeting of the McGill science gradu-
ates' society Friday evening. 1t was a
large subject. Hudsons Bay is half az
large as the Mediterranean seat
drains vast territory, 100000 square
miles in area-yast rivers flow into it
from the south, east and west; flowing
from the places as distant as the plains
OF Minnesota and Dakota.
In it's waters live undisturbed fish
and oil-bearing mammals, along its
shores are fine harbors, in the country
surrounding it are rich mineral depCs-
it's and fine farming lands. But it is a
portion destitute of human habitation.
White whales, walruses big as ele-
plants and fur-bearing seals disport
themselves undisturbed in the water.
On the land there is wealth with no
one to take it away.
But all this is the arctic regions"
YOU say. mo bit of it," says DR..
Bell. director of the geological survey.
Moose bay is in a latitude further
south than London, and the more
northern portion of Hudsons bay is at
about the same latitude as the north Of
Scotland Fhe climate also compares
very favorably with that of the same
latitude in other portions of the globe.
THE bay does not freeze across in
winter--the winter conditions there be-
ing similar to those Of the gulf of st.
Lawrence, and navigation is possible
during four or possibly FIVE months of
the year The Hudsons bay route
would bring the great northwest as
near to Europe as the city Of Quebec.
1t offers, perhaps, the best route to the
Yukon district, and is the natural route
| to the great oil fields Of the northwest.
Gold is there-specimenS Of gold
bearing quartz have been brought into
| the Hudsons bay stations-pyrites con
| tanning gold have been found by the
| geological survey party. and alluvial
| gold has been found, according to Mr..
| William Ogilvie, in the valleys. Gyp-
| sum, iron, copper, silver and lead are
| aIundantly indicated in many places.
| "Were the country within the arctic
| circle the quality of the soil would be
| of no consequence. But there are
| scores Of millions Of acres upon which
! profitable stock raising and farming
may be carried on and it is important
to note that the soil observed is rich
and productive. In the district south
| of James bay, in district as large as
| all England, the total population al
present is one Scotchman and 80 or Al
families CT Indians Montreal Wit

BRIAN BORU'S HARP.
Ancient Instrument in the Possession OF
Trinity College, Dublin
From Lloyds Newspaper.

Trinity College, Dublin.
From Lloyds Newspaper
No more interesting relic Of Irelands
old historic days has come down than
The instrument preserved in Trinity
College, Dublin. and known as
Brian Boru's harp" 1t is the Oldest
instrument of the kind known to exist
in the land OF Erin, and probably in,
Europe. n h
The legend attached to the harp
gives it the honor Of having been play
cd at the court Of King Brian Boru,
slain at the battle of Clontarf, in the
year 1C14, having passed into the pos
session of his son Donough, the MUIR
derer of league, in consequence of
which act he was deposed by nephew
Donough retired to Rome Tnither
the averager carried the regalia of his
assassinated father, and also the mus
icai instrument Deposited in the vat
lean, it remained there centuries, until
sent over by the Pope to Henry VIII,
then honored by the Pontiff as the
Defender of the Faith
This legend is only fiction One Of
the greatest of Irish antiquarian schol-
ars, the late George Petrie, has ex-
haustively and convincingly shown
that the story has no foundation in
TACT. From its size, peculiar structure
and heraldic decoration, Mr. Petrie de-
duced, to the satisfaction of archaeolo-
gists, that the harp belonged to the
smaller class Of instruments used by
the Irish ecclesiastics to accompany
voices in the singing of hymns at pri-
yate devotion or in the services of the
church. The instrument is but 80
inches high. Thus Mr.. Petrie contend
ed that it was too small to have been
a bardic instrument, quite untitled to
have been played by the minstrel at
| festai functions The scholar also
POINTS out that his argument for the
| instrument being one for devotional
purposes is strengthened by the APP
| pealance of the letters II. II. S.. cary
/ ed in relief in the Gothic character. 1t
was the opinion Of the antiquary that
| this harp was made for one of the two
| O'Neills who fiourished in the four
teenth century, the first as Bishop Of
! Clogher, the second as Bishop of Derry.
The harp, when perfect, had thirty
| strings 1t is of exquisite workman
ship The upright pillar is of oak and
| the soundboard of red sallow; the eX-
| tremity Of the forearm has a Gaping OF
silver, very artistically wrought, and
there are other embellishments in the
same metal. There is also large

been an avenging witch, with her victim
pleading for mercy"
'AnG SO you call it babyish?" she ex-
claimed for a woman to rebel when her
husband insults here in one breath by
giving her to understand that he cares

All, you'll never have cause to be miser-

Then she rushed away and he did not

PAYS TO ADV ERTISE.

There was a preacher who preached away
For years to empty pews:
Nobody cared what he had to say,
For his were sober views.
There was nothing in his dress or style
To attract the common mob;
And people wondered, after Whl-e,
How he ever held his job
The churchs debt began to swell,
The elders groWled aloud,
The preacher realized full well
That he must win the crowd.
With sinking heart it struck MN no"
That he was out of date, -,
He scratched his head and wondered ho"
He could strike some other Bat.
He reused himself and went arouhan-

He preached of things that ne hsa louiiu'

MR.. HARTLEY'S BLUNDER.

If His Wife Was Sad He Didn't Think He

Henry" said Evangeline Hartley,
as she threw her arms around her hus-
bands neck, Il have been as miser-
able as possible all day"
He had just got home; it was even

on her most becoming clothes. She
looked like a young girl again, and he
felt something's sort of thrill such
as one gets in an elevator when it
suddenly starts downward - that
hadn't bothered him much for two or
three years.
Catching her little white hands in
his. he led her into the parlor, drew
her down beside him, upon some soft,
! cushioned thing, the name of which
only a woman could be expected to
know. and then patting her gently
upon her rosy cheeks, said:
and so you've been unhappy? Pm
sorry to hear that. What has made
you so?"
Looking up at him through glad
tears, she replied:
},
| Haven't you, too, been miserable to-
| day."
why, no." he answered, in frank
amazement; mot at all. The fact is,
I've felt particularly buoyant all day

| But she had drawn back and was

| She frightened him. He knew that he
had said the wrong thing, and, man
! like, made bad matter worse by blum
dering ahead in the unknown darkness
instead Of waiting quietly for light.

Warrants were obtained from the courts to-day and as soon as requisition papers can be prepared an officer will go to Detroit for the prisoner.
 Whiteman is about thirty-nine years old and has the appearance of a we'll to-do business man. It is claimed by the police that he has been arrested many times, but except in one instance has escaped punishment.

DONE TO DEATH BY SLANDEROUs
 TONGUES.

Monsignor Baron, Bishop of fingers,
 died last night at private hospital in
 Paris. He was the victim of the politi-
 cal spite and malice of his diocese. An
 gers and the surrounding country are
 Ryalists of the most small-minded
 pattern. Monsignor Baron was a Re-
 publican. When he went to fingers his
 clergy showed themselves dissatisfied.
 The Bishop pleaded the Pope's new be-
 ginning as an excuse, but clergy and
 flock insisted that his Holiness was
 simply trying new tactics as a means
 to gain his old objects. Monsignor
 Baron not accepting this view, the combination against his became too strong. What greatly embittered his life was the line taken both by clergy and flock in regard to two ladies, the
 Bishops housekeeper and nun, her as- sistant Neither was quite the canoni- cal age The ex-nun was charged with levity of conduct, and the other with showing satisfaction when she saw that her conversation and good looks impressed high members of the clergy. Petition after petition was sent to Rome against Monsignor Baron. The
