British barristers are discussing the es-
Establishment of an organization similar to the
American Bar Association. The Law Society
serves the purpose for the lower of the two
branches into which England's legal profess
sion is divided, but no Association for gather
ing opinions among barristers as to import
ant legal mats ers exists. A congress of bar
risters will be held during the last week OF
the long vacation, out of which such an
organization may develop.
The forty-sixth annual Trades Union
Congress has been opened at Manchester
with 500 delegates, representing over two
million workmen from various trades. LIT Is
the first time in the history of the Congress
that delegates are present from Canada
Germany and France. After the LORD May
or and the Dean of Manchester bad welcom-
ed the Delegates, the Chairman, Mr.. Davis,
asserted that the Trades Unions had lnltlat-
ed and forced th, ough Parliament most OF
the great reforms of the past half century
Mr.. James Sexton then moved a resolution,
which was unanimously adopted, denouncIng
the authorities for prohibiting meetings and
stranoling free speech IN Dublin, and also
condemnlng the brutality OF tue Dublin
police.

Dispatches from Paris state that the avla-
tor Pegoud, with a Bieriot monoplane, rose
to a height of 5000 feet, turned the nose

feet fell like a stone. He then turned the
machine inward, flying on it's back for a
quarter OF a mile, after which he rose per-
peudlcularly, completing a circle by regain
inc his normal flying position. The aviator
after executing other thrilling m"nOeuVres,
came down completely self-possessed. lie
reneated the feat later on, at the request OF
a commission of army a%vlators. Experts say
that the test is an epoch making experiment
towards safety in the air, and demonstrates
that good monoplanes cannot capslze, but
will maintain their equilibrium IN any WIND
and right themselves under any clrcnm-
Stances, reducing the dangers of aviation by
seventy-tive per cent.
