new ministry think this was a step oi
doubtful wisdom as likely to goad the
military to desperation.
General De Negrier was at no time
mixed up in the Dreyfus affair. He has
distinguished himself for bravery and
skill as soldier and general, and was
on the road to succeed to the position
OF generalissimo of the forces.
His disgrace is meant as warning
to the military not to organize conspi-
racies agaiusts the republic.
This was, in way, De Negrier's Of
fense.
The Temps says the government s
act is painful, although justifable. 1t

LONDON, July 27.-Several Paris
correspondents of London papers say

General de Negrier is graver than at

Sir WiIfred Laurier Explains
How He Used The
Word
CANADA IN DANGER
Of "Being Ground Between
The MiIIstones of The
AngIo-American
Entente"

CHICAGO, July 27.-An Ottawa spe
cial Ito the Times-Herald says: Sir
Wilfred Laurier in private conversa-
tion disclaims any intention of striving
to create alarm in London or Washing
ton by the use of the word "war."
He was thinking of arbitration when
he made his speech Saturday and used
"wsr" merely in an academic sense to
explain only one other way in which
. the question could be settled. He was
not thinking of armed hostilities.
Yet, If the leading statesman of Can
ada had made hundred speeches he
could not have chosen more telling
way of bringing out the fact that Can
ada feels thai she Is being crowded too
hard.
There is not going to be any war,
there is DO thought of war, but all the
same Canada is realizing, to use the
phrase of her prominent politicians to-
day, that she Is in danger of being
ground between the millstones of the
Anglo-Americsne entente.
The politicians meant that Great
Britain would sacrifice Cansda's claim
to the Lynn canal rather than dis
please Uncle Sam.
At Saturday mornings sitting of the
house at Ottawa a violent criticism of
the American position, concerning the
Alaskan boundary question by Sir
Charles Tupper, brought forth state
ment from Sir Wilfred Laurier.
''It is clear" said he, ''that there
are only two ways by which the diff
Guilty may now be settled, arbitration
or war. I have no hope at this mo-
ment that we can settle the question by
compromise. No one wants war. We
must exhaust every means of removing
the difficulty by peaceful methods. 1
have not given up hope that it is pos
. sible to agree to arbitration. Negotia-
tions are still going on. We must find
some means of bringing about peace
full settlem ent.''
That is the speech referred to.

VERY LITTLE DAMAGE
On the pecos Valley Railroad.-The

The Pecos Valley railroad did not
suffer nearly as much from the late
flood as was reported at the time. The
delay to trains Was only eight hours
in all, and the total damage was only
about $500.
No track was washed out, but one
end of a fifty-six foot bridge was moved
down stream twenty feet.
The damage was overestimated at
that time, and it is a great pleasure to
be able to correct the false impression
that was doubtless gained from the

Crossing the threshold was and is
the most critical period of the wedding
day with all races, not even excepting
the Anglo Saxon.
The superstitious fears of the many,
always particularly alert on the occa-
sion of a marriage, culminate in this
final act of the drama. The lifting of
the bride over the threshold or her step
ping across it is the signal in Persia,
Arabia and among the Copts of Egypt
for the sacrifice of q goat or q sheep.
Among the Aenezes, according to
Burckhardt, the bridegroom simply
kills q lamb in front of his father in
laws tent, and the ceremony, but for
the running OF the bride from tent
to another, is complete. Perhaps the
purest symbolical act is that of the
Transylvanian Saxon bridal pair, who
step over the threshold with their hands
tied together. Some Of these Transyl-
vanian customs are remarkable and
must be survivals from q very ancient
period. The bridegroom never wears
the shirt made for him by the bride ex-
cept on his wedding day and at his
burial, just as the veil Of the japanese
bride becomes one day her shroud.-
