Al though i have visited Many hospitals elsewhere and in different countries i scarcely feel competent to enter into any comparison of their relative merits.

Alfried Andrews Virden Man. Winnipeg Jan. 2, 1891. Iron Huxley s Montreal witness Drums and Streeb parades represent the part of salvation army work which is most observable and most open to Cvitic sin the work in the Blums on the other hand described by a contributor to Che new York world represents which so examination to which they would be subjected. The Ottawa journal which opened the discussion of this matter asks Why a barrister should be allowed to Saj in court to a fellow citizen whom he happens for the moment to have helpless in the witness Box things which he would Nob dare to say to the same Man outside and contends very forcibly that Lay men summoned to Aid in the dispensation of Justice have a right to be treated civilly if they Are telling truth. In a recent Case in this province a lawyer s conduct towards a witness was described As brutally impertinent and it is feared that the tone and Bear ing of other members of Tho profession to wards unfortunate occupants of the witness Box might be summed no in the same pointed phrase without doing them any injustice if honest witnesses ars not protected by the judges the upshot will be that they will pro tech themselves by taking care not to let it is i in m their testimony would be of value. This would be a serious thing for the interests of Justice bub the responsibility could hardly Bei thrown upon the citizen who knew that of he should to do Hia duty to Hia fellow Man or to the state he would be badgered and insulted by the Law yers whilst the judge connived at the out rage by refusing to interfere. The Nua Stion is one which deserves in fact demands the attention of the Bench which alone has the Power to apply a a gov2bkmknt tout inquiries under what conditions would provincial Aid be Given to the Hudson Bay railway in order to be assured where to find How would a letter from the president do promising not to charge higher rat As than those on the P. it sufficed for the Northern Pacific Why not for the other of course it would Way a any that could foe adopted to frighten i not prevent a raise of five cents per Hundred if the of the be court my w w.

I do not desire to enter to enter into any discus Tsiou with this but for the information of the Public i desire to say thut it was never intended that Gretna school should be a separate in was a Pri vate Bohol from the beginning. The Only difficulty in the Way of its Success was in not being Able to find a competent Man who would not Only teach the school Bat who would also possess those qualities necessary to gain the Confidence of a people. After several attempts to get help from sister Colon ies in the states we finally persuaded with the assistance of or. Bryce on Hia trip South last professor h. Ewert of Kansas to consider a Call to Manitoba. Then a meeting was called at Gretna to which i privately invited or. Bryce knowing that his presence would help much toward gaining More school friends. Or. Bryce stated very distinctly that no permission for religious teaching could be Given if the government was to assist a. The representatives did not think that they were Strong enough to Call Profesa Rewert on their own account and concluded to let the govern ment make it a Normal school but with the understanding that professor Ewert should be the principal. This Resolution was passed by a unanimous vote of the Assembly. We further offered him our school building for that purpose nay More than that in order to convince the government of our Earnest Ness we offered to with in Ofish. Thus the matter stood at the close of the meeting that or. Bryce attended. Professor ewer has made us a visit since. He was con Vinced of the Greab need of work and he consented to come and open a Normal school on april 1st at Gretna. The writer Speaks of a certain or. Hespeler who had sent or.

Toronto Empire the intense cold of the Ghi Istas holidays in England is recalling to the British Public Many of the famous cold periods of the past. One of these periods was from december 20, 1812, to March 21 1813-during which the thames was Frozen Over thickly and a fair was held on the ice. In the recent cold snap the Mercury in Lon Don fell to Only 10 above Zero but in was much colder in some parts of England. How Low the Mercury a capable of going once in a Long while w Hen All the meteorological conditions Are favourable May be judged by a record of 20 below Zero in the Isle of Wight and about 1753 a record in Glasgow of below Zero one Day below another Otill 10 above is a temperature sufficiently uncommon in the Ocean gird to attract general attention.
