Beginning of the Canadian
 Rebellion of 1887

The Canadian rebellion of 1887 had it's beginning in Upper Canada on this date, Dec. 4th, when the rebels, who had assembled at Montgomery's Tav- ern, began their march on Toronto. William Lyon Mackenzie, the leader of the tnsnrrectton in the Upper Pro- vince, had given wide circulation to his doctrine through his newspaper '-The Constitution" and by fiery ad- dresses at some 200 public meetings. Over a thousand of his followers had engaged in rifle practice. The pur- pose of the attack on Toronto was to seize the LAeutanant-Gove and capture the 1000 musket which were kept in the city hall. After this had been accomplished. the rebels propos- ed to proclaim a republic, with Dr. John Ralph az provisional president. The "army" retreated in haste when confronted by a small body of volun- teerss and awaited reInforcements. Within a day or two the reoel force was increased to about thousand. although only a part of the men were armed with guns. the remainder hav- ing only pitchforZs, scythes and axes. S2mnaH AAounEs a pl2ckSn1In Wno n1o received some military training from a veteran of Napoleon's grand army, was the commander of the force. Col Noodle, a veteran of the peninsula wars, attempted to ride through the rebel lines, and was shot dead. This aroused the fury of the citizens o1 TorotOn. and from highest to lowest they armed themselves for the defense of the city. Militia from other cities Excluding the Hilton 'tMen of Gore came to their assistance. On the 7th the militia, led by Col McNab, attack ed tRe iY1ss1rrection1sts, and after g single exchange of bullets the rebels fled. Mackenzie escaped to the Uni. ted States, but was arrested and i'm prisoned for eighteen months at Al. bany, N: Y.

This Is Artillery Holiday"

Among the artil1erymen of nearly all the armies of the world, the fourth of December is known as the 'tartil- lery holiday" and although the ob- servance is dying out the tradition re- mains. The festival is based on that or St. Barbara. or Barbe, who Is known as the patron saint of Gum powder, although she lived more than thousand years before the invention of that explosive. When cannon were introduced the linen behind the gun" searched through the calendar of saints for patron, and finally select ed the gentle martyr, St. Barbe. Many reasons have been given to explain the choice, but the most probable one is that Barbara's executioner, her own father, was immediately stricken by bolt of lightning, which vas accom- panied by tremendous thunder clap. The cannoniers hkened the thunder which accompanied the inflictior4. of vengeance upon Barbara's slayer to the thunder peal of battle, and so Barbara was chosen as their patron ess. The "artillery holiday is most widely observed in France, but it has been shorn of it's religious significance since the establishment of the repub- lie. .e
 St. arbara, whose name has become associated with grim war, lived in the third century. Her father, Dioscorus, was tyrannical parent, and kept the girl tmmured in a lonely tower after she had manifested interest in Chris tianity. Condemned to solitude, she spent her time in prayer and study of the new faith, and by stealth contriv- ed to receive instruction from a priest. The father, upon discovering this, denounced his daughter before the judges. Dioscorus declared him. self willing to act as the executioner of his daughter, and, after putting her to terrible tortures in an effort to force recantation, he cut off her head. According to tradition. the sky was clear and cloudless. but crash of thunder that shook the earth fol- lowed the martyrdom of Barbara, and her father, stricken by lightning, fell dead with the bloody sword still grasped in his hand.

After several years of unhappy married life the young wife met the Grand Duke, and 8 passion ate attachment sprang up between them. The millionaire husband ob- ligingly consented to a divorce, but for time the Grand Dukes heart was unable to prevail over his ambi- tion. Deeply as he loved the woman, he remembered that a throne might be his some day if he abstained from the marriage. To prevent gossip, he induced a young army officer to go through a ceremony with the charm CT.
