The Paths Of Peace.

1t was toward nightfall on the third
day after Mr.. Hogan's departure for
Boston that he returned to his family
in Chetwick, with a bandage round his
head which covered one eye, and with
his left arm in a sling.
Mrs. Hogan looked at him in silence
for some moments.
"Well," she said at last, in a tone Of
great chiliness, you're a fine-looking
man to be coming home from a visit
to your uncle that's a PRIEST"
1T was the great crowd did it," said
Mr.. Hogan, meekly. 1--WE were all
striving to get into the building at the
one time, and there was one man fell
against me when | was holding my
arm out to. make room for uncle, he
being understood, and that broke a
bone, or-at any rate sprung it out o.
place.
"And two minutes after, when uncle
was trying to get me out of it, there
was a man pushed us both fiat, and
then he and another one walked on me
head"
And what was all this great
crowd" asked Mrs. Hogan, suspicious
ly.
'It WIS the Peace Congress-" said
Mr.. Hogan, calmly.-Youths Compan

The Great Country of the North.

The resources of Canada are hardly
yet appreciated by her nearest neigh
bors. Figures were recently quoted
by a prominent Canadian speaker. Mr..
Edgar Judge, showing that the home
stead holdings in Northwestern Canada
since 1896 have increased from 297.-
760 acres to 2,229, 100 acres. "If fifty
thousand farmers could raise seventy
million bushels of wheat in 1902 in
Manitoba, then 100000 could raise
35OOOO,000 bushels, enough to supply
the total import requirements Of Great
Britain, besides feeding the people of
Canada" The speaker asserted that
the freight on wheat shipped from TT.
William, Canada, to London, England,
was less than that on shipments from
English midlands, only one hundred
miles from London. He concluded that
the possibilities of Canada as grower
and exporter of fruit products were
greater than those Of either Russia or
the United States.

Watering Trees.

Unless the owner of trees under
stands some of the more important
principles Of growth, there is danger
that he will, when applying water. do
more harm than good. To apply wa
ter In small quantities through the
droughty season is to cause the roots
In the ground to turn toward the sur-
face and grow in that direction. Then
when watering Is discontinued for anv
reason the roots dry out much more
quickly than If they had not been wa
tered at all. When water is applied
to trees 1t should be in sufficient
abundance to soak the ground to n
depth OF several feet. The roots will
then not turn up to get moisture. IL
1t Is necessary to apply but little wa
ter at time 1t should not be put on
the surface Of the ground. Dig hole
and put in a large piece OF drain pipe
so that the water being thrown into
this pipe or piece of tile will soak
deep into the ground. In case of not
having drain pipe or piece Of tile, a
hole can be made sufficiently deep TO
act as a reservoir. Let the water soak
into the ground from this hole. The
idea is to get the water to the roots
from some other direction rather than
from the surface Of the ground

we expected to be killed. Kremzug has
10000 people. Most of them are Jews,

of the police and the rabblc.
There is bund that is composed
of Russians and Jews. 1t is a reVolu-

protect the poorer class of Jews. but
it does not. When the proclamation of
Russian freedom came there was great
rejoicing among the Jews. A meeting
was called of the bund at the town hall.
The Jews were told TO attend or they
would be killed.
''Inhammatory speeches were made
at the town hall meeting on November

chief of police had secretly arranged
for a massacre of the Jews by the
"black hundred" composed of the rab-
ble.
The next day the massacre began.
THE rioters were mad with vodka.

up by the wrists and whipped. Little
children were thrown from the upper

them the slightest hope that there
would be any deviation from the prom

In d short speech his majesty said
he was convinced of their devotion
to the fathcrland but that he would
advise them to advance by no other
route than that which he had traced
in his manifesto. He charged them to

clear and deliberate expression of my

Dear Sir: Please allow me space i'm

Every reform movement must be

Furnishing for foul or brutal play that
has been so generally suggested Ia some
quarters. namely, the disqualification
Df the offender for a part or whole of
season is "a matter which does not rest
with the Rules Committee, but with
the authorities OF the various colleges
concerned" Unfortunately Professor
Dennis has stated a sad truth why
should not the Rules Committee have
the authority to make such a rule9 Is
II possible that any college which
stands for clean football would object
TO a rule which would enectualy say.
