CANADIAN IMMIGRATION
More Settlers Going to the Great NORTH
West Than Ever Before.

WINNIPEG, May 4.-There is no
longer any doubt that this is to be the
best year of immigration that West
ern Canada ever had. The Canadian
Pacific railway is having the greatest
difficulty, with all of it's immense
equipment, in providing cars for the
scores of thousands of immigrants
now pouring in from Europe. The
other day it made an emergency call
for 1872 passenger coaches, and as a
consequence tht remarkable sight was
witnessed of two trains, of. forty empty
coaches each, eastward bound, to re-
ceive the immigrants expected at Hal
flax and st. Johns
The streets of Winnipeg are crowd
td with a dge-podge Of all the ma
tionalities of Europe, and Dominion i'm
migration officers are having all they
can do to look after the wants of these
people.
1t is not only from Europe that the
immigrants are coming in. So far this
spring a great many more have come
in from the states than last spring.
At is no uncommon thing for the 500
train to arrive at Portal, Assiniboia,
from Minneapolis, with from II to 13
coaches, and sometimes with as many
as 500 Americans on board, bound
for new homes in Western Canada.
The 500 railway passenger department
reports that it's settlers business into
Western Canada is considerably larger
that's year than last.
Another excellent sign of the pros
perity of western Canada is to be found
in the land business, which was a lit
tie dull a year ago. Land men now
report the briskest business they have
ever had. One interesting feature of
the land business is that large part
of the sales is made up of farmers
who have recently settled here. Their
first years experience with farming In
Western Canada has been so satisfac-
terry that they are all eager to get as
much land as possible.

WANTS A CHURCH TO HEAL.
Denver Church Is Disturbed Over New
Ideas of Its Pastor

DENVER, May 4.-St. Marks Prot
estant Episcopal church of Denver.
has been stirred to the foundation by
the action of it's rector, Rev. John L.
Houghton, in establishing a guild to
teach healing Of the sick by religious
instruction.
His course may result in sensational
developments among the congregation
and threatents to revolutionize this
conservative church.
Mr.. Houghton has ever been the en-
envy of healing cults, and has fought
their invasion of mis- congregation. He
has denounced the principle of heal
ing and denied their assertions.
During the last year, however, ne
has stated that he believed all earnest
Christians should be masters of their
mind and body, and six months ago
he caused a sensation at a meeting of
the Ministerial Alliance by saying that
the healing of the ill by religious sects
was an issue which all churches must
sooner or later meet and settle. to the
satisfaction of the Christians of the
world.
IT, myself, have been healed by the
word of God, the study of the Bible,
the understanding of Christ's teach
ings," he explained and now has made
known mis- intention of establishing
guilds where healing, as taught by the
Bible, will be study Of the members.
The church is divided in it's reception
of this departure, and some who do not
approve the move may band together
and form a separate church. 1t is the
desire of Mr.. Houghton to prevent the
members from leaving the church, and
to this end Henry Holden Colpus came
to his assistance from Philadelphia.
The measure is taken to put an end to
the decreasing membership on account
of the inroads of new church which
preach the healing of the ill as taught
by Christ.
Mr.. Colpus says it is the intention to
organize guilds of health throughout
the British Empire and the United
States.
simultaneously, in London and Den
yer, Mr.. Colpus said, the necessity for
a radical movement to counterfeit the
tendency of church members to leave
of healing cults was recognized.

the water users in the Salt river and

here have not been starved out by a

Macpherson thanked his friend, en-
tered the house and descended into the
cellar. Disseminating the meter, be
blew and blew. This he did at he-
quent intervals, never forgetting the
high price Of gas.
It was customary in those days for
the gas man in making his rounds to
examine the meter, calculate the
amount, make out the bill and at the
same time collect Early in the spring
the gas man called. He was an ex.
schoolmaster and was particularly re-
nowned for his abilities as an account
