Cooking With Gas.

A gas range, if properly used, is
cheaper than coal. Why7 Because
all expense stops when the gas is
turned off; because it requires no
-kindling, no labor in carrying in Of
coal or carrying out Of ashes; because
{ II preserves all the nutritious ele-
prNents of meats, breads and vege-
tables; because it is always ready and
saves the most valuable of all things
--time-and because it saves the
wear and tear on human nerves.
The Gas Company will run service
pipe to curb free of charge, and will
sell gas ranges at ACTUAL COST
and do all other work connected there
with at lowest rates. Gas for fuel is
SIPS net per one thousand cubic feet,
and Illuminating gas is the safest Of
all fuels. Ths risk of oil fuel is too
great to- chance it when gas can be
obtained. For further Information

Archbishop of Canterbury For
Woman Suffrage.

The following is the petition
which the Archbishop of Canterbury
recently has signed, his name being
one of very distinguished list:
"Your petitioners hold that the
recognition of the full rights of wo-
men as capable citizens is essential
to the establishment of social justice
and to the wise and efficient govern
ment of the country. Wherefore
your petitioners humbly pray that
your honorable House will pass a
measure securing to women the
right of voting for members of Par
lament on the same terms on which
that right is or may be exercised
by men.
The Archbishop of Canterbury is
the highest dignitary of the Church
of England. He is the Primate of
all England, has prominent place
in the House of Lords, and by immo-
rial usage he presides at the corona
ton of kings and queens, and places
the crown on the head of the sover
eign. Many conservative Episco-
pal clergymen will shudder at the
action of the Archbishop in signing
a woman suffrage petition. The
Episcopal, as well as the Methodist
and Catholic Bishops, are divided
on this question, just as they used
to be on that of human slavery.

ROUTE TO THE ORIENT.

The trend Of events is making Amer
lea everylyear more and more the west
ward overland route betwixt Europe
and the far Orient, and turning our
own stream of trade and traffic more
vigorously, running from the East to
the Pacific coast. The New York Cen
trail lines are naturally receiving the
main body of the new patronage. The
wonderful comfort and speed of their
trains, the directness of their connec-
tons and their regularity and relia-
bility are the factors that determine
this. Nothing so impresses the traveller
from abroad as the superiority of our
railway travel, and the New York Cen
trail is largely entitled to the credit of
this good opinion, for that is the trans
continental line they see most of.--Out-
ing, April 1899. -

STRUCK BY A HORSE.
Mother Injured in Her Attempt to Protect
Her Child.

Mrs. Adelaine Rondeau was struck
by runaway horse yesterday morning
about 10 o'clock in front of John c.
Machines store on Main store, and for
a time it appeared that the unfortu-
nate woman was seriously injured.
The horse, hitehed to a light concord,
had been left tied to a post. near Mac
lnnes' store by his owner, John S.
Churchill of 81 Barcley street, and had
been there but a few moments when
Buffalo Bills congress of rough riders
and other things went by. The horse
tugged at the rope which held him to
the post in an endeavor to get away
from the noise OF the bands, and sue
ceeded just as the parade turned into
Park street. Mrs. Rondeau, with her
two children, intended to go into Mac
Innes' to make a purchase, and one Of
the children Jagged behind it's mother.
The horse. as soon 4as he got loose,
made a dash for the sidewalk, near
where the child stood. Mrs. Rondeau
saw that her child was in danger and
made a brave attempt to save her.
She grabbed the child, and had just
pushed it out Of harms way when the
animal struck her, knocking her to. the
sidewalk. In falling she escaped the
uOTSG > HOOIS, Out OIle OI the uluQ
wheels Of the carriage passed over her
body, s
She lay on the sidewalk unconscious
for several moments, until officer AL
fred Harper, assisted by bystanders,
picked her up and carried her to the
basement in the store, where she re-
gained consciousness. The police am
bulance was called and Mrs. Rondeau
taken to the City Hospital, where she
will probably remain until Monday. The
two children were taken to their home
at 80 Assonet street by a friend.
The animal, in his mad dash for lib
erty, struck post near the sidewalk,
and, but for this, the accident would
have probably proved more se4ous.
Mgr. Thomas Griffin, pastor of st.
Johns church, was near at the time
the horse got free, and made an at
tempt to check the animal before he
had done any damage. AS soon as the
horse struck the woman he stopped and
did no further damage.
