Next comes a purely Canadian scene.
Before us pass Dollard des ormeaux, &C
companied by his 10 French companions,
and the faithful Annontaha with his Al

And now we hear the regular sound Of
marching feet. We have arrived at the
turning point Of Canadian history, and are
gazing upon an approaching body Of SOL

of the most striking scenes from Can

The first permanent settlement in what
was then New France was established
at Quebec in July. 1913. by Samuel de

French king Francois I.
Jacques Cartier had attempted some
thing of the kind 1t Cape Rouge, eight
miles above Quebec. three quarters Of
century before ChaWplain's time. but his
efforts proved abortiye.
Champlains nascent colony, under the
cliff Of Quebec. had two narrow escapes
from destruction during the first year OF
its existence Soon after the erection
Of his first buildings Champlain was
called inside by one Of his men. who re-
vealed a conspiracy among a number Of
his followers 10 murder their commander
and plumber the colony. So prompt was
Champlain's action that the cOnspiratCrs
were surprised and arrested the same
night, and the body OF Duval. the author
OF the plot, was soon swinging from

centenary fetes that it was early de-
clded TO invite England, France and the
United States, which had each its share
In their past glories. to send representa-

success of the celebration will be due
to the presence Of the representatives

MURDER NEAR DONE IN
NEvADA'S PEN|TENT|ARY

CARSON, June pa prisoner
named Fisher had narrow escape
from death at the hands of infuriat-
ed former friends at the state prison
yesterday morning, Captain Muller,
Lieutenant Newnham and Guard Has
lett saving the mans life. The at
tack was the result of the alleged
turning of states evidence by Fisher
and giving testimony which coused
four men to be sentenced to the state
prison a short time ago from Winnie
mucca for Jail breaking.
Fisher and two other prisoners
named Riley and Roberts. arrived at
the state prison on Monday last
week. Just as breakfast was closing
and all the guards were leaving the
place except Guard Milligan in the
Cage four emn sentenced at Win
nemucca several months ago on the
charge of Jail breaking and who al

mony given by Fisher. made a dash
for Fisher. Fisher attempted to run
and was forced directly beneath the
cage" where Milligan sat and so
he could not see what occurred How
ever, they knocked their victim to the
floor, struck him with quirt and
one used knife. and beat him un-
mercifully.
When officers Muller. Newman
and Haslett rushed into the room
Fisher was unconscious and when
carried out thought to be in a dying
condition. DR.. Huffaker was called
and it required almost two hours to
sew up and dress the wounds. 1t
is now said that Fisher will recover.
The chances are that when the pris-
oner recovers, if he does, he will not
be placed with the other prisoners as
the fight yesterday shows that he
would be killed if his assailants got
a chance at him.
