SHE MUST DEFEND HERSELF.
RetaIiatng Upon Dominion Refusal to
Pay, England Withdraws Forces.

OTTAWA, Ont, Dec 24-Canada's
resolute and repeated refusals to
shoulder any portion of the expendi
lures of the imperial army and navy
have weighed heavily with the admir-
atty and war Office in the announce
ment of proposed changes.
Under the British naval redistribu-
ton scheme two warships only will be
left in Canadian waters and these
under the war office scheme the
British troops at Halifax and Esqui-
in the imperial garrisons will aggre-
gate $4,000.
The leading organ of the Canadian
government frankly admits that the
admiralty has decided to withdraw
British warships from Canada and
that the Canadian government must
be prepared to garrison Halifax and
Esquimalt with Canadian troops.
This is the British governments
answer to Sir Wilfred Laurier,
who is writing Lord Selborne, charac-
terized as suicidal any scheme of
Canada into the vortex of militarism
into which the nations of Europe,
England included. have plunged"
When the British admiralty in
formed Laurier that Canada would be
expected to contribute generously the
premier replied that Canada was seek
ing commercial and not military sue
cess and that he would look upon il
as a crime to divert any part of that
| necessary expenditure to the supply of
guns, cannon, and military ornaments
generally"
Some of the writer's in the military
columns of the Canadian press are ad-
vising the government to reconsider
it's position with respect to the war
ships, and are urging it to open ne
gotiations with the imperial authori-
ties on the basis of a reasonable con-
tribution for sea protection of Cana
dian commerce by the imperial navy
on the high seas.
One of these writer's says some of
the Canadians seem to be of the opin-
ion that in case of emergency Uncle
Sam can be relied on to lend a few
warships, but he thinks the position
a humiliating one for Canada, and
points out the absurdity Of expecting
the great republic to do anything of
the kind without a sufficient return.
| The fact that such a possibility is
| even limited at is suggestive.

HOW GOLDFISH ARE CAUGHT.
Occupation That Yielded $4,000, 900
Pounds of Food In One Year.


Cod-fishing is done with dories and
travis. The dories are fat-bottomed
sloping-s sided boats, which fit into one
another in the ships waist, economic
ing space thereby. Each dory takes
two men, and the whole crew, except
the captain and the cook, go off in
them every suitable day and set the
travis in the water outward from the
ship like spokes from the hub of
with 5000 hooks attached at intervals
and baited with some smaller fish,
either herring, caplin or quid, that the
cod affects. The travis are anchored
at each end, baited in the day, left
lying over night, and are stripped of
their accumulation of fish next morn
ing, being baited again when "over-

takes more bait and salts and goes out
again. At ST. Pierre her catch is
taken hand by the graviers and wo-
men, who submerge it in crates un-
til the salt has been washed off,
Then they scrub each fish with a
hard, coarse brush and pile them in
next spread on the beaches to dry in
the sunlight and air. The beaches
consist of several acres of fiat ground,
covered with basalt stones worn round
by the motion of the sea for ages.
These stony fields surround ST.
Pierre and thousands of cod are dis
played there on a fine day. Every
evening, or if fog or rain threatens,
the fish are gathered up again and are
covered with tarpaulins. The pro-
cess is repeated until the fish are quite
dry and hard. Dry fish are piled in
round stacks, the rest in oblong ones.
When a sufficient quantity to load a
vessel is obtained it is packed into her
hold and shipped to market.

those islands in 1902, which was 49,
| 100000 pounds. While much of the
annual product is exported to other
countries, France naturally gets the
| larger part. In fact, st. Pierre fur
nishes three-fourths of all the Goldfish

Gus Anderson, carpenter, and
Front avenue bartender of the name
of Nelson are record holders at two
other clothing houses of the city

are Swedes, and as the average Swede
head is peculiarly long in shape,
larger sized hat is required. The
