it done on Short Notice DA 111 Or As flnothef Death of the residents of East bury will remember Mr Drown who worked at one time in the Cane Saw- ill back of and removed to some years ago Word received here this week that he was dead and the circumstances surrounding death are extremely On Monday of last week Mr Brown went to Severn Bridge to look after soma lumbering While there he stayed with hie brotherinlaw Mr Wood who resides about a mile from the village On Tuesday evening he left Mr Woods bouse to walk to the fitation intending to catch the late train for the north He alone This was the last seen of him alive On Friday evening bis lifeless body found lying in the yards not far from the Severn Bridge railway station Hie pipe was In his hand and beside him laid the torch with which he intended to flag the train An investigation the causes leading up to his death convinced the authorities that an inquest net The doctor who called pronounced death due heart On the person of the dead man were found hie gold and in money This removed at once the anapielon of foul play The feet that Mr Brown not at home or by In Severn Bridge by the that his frienda In wore not expecting htm at any definite time while those at Severn Bridge took for granted that he had left as intended for home on Tors day train place where he fell happened to be in an part of the lumber yard which accounts for the largely signed petitions have been for warded to the Hon master- Genera I asking for better mail service at Al bert people of that place do not get their morning papers till p and it is proposed to make a new between Sharon and Albert with a new peat office at Mills a route would ho a great advantage in two The Toronto mail could be sent by trolley the Button stage could leave here at a m and the mail could arrive in Mount Albert after oclock The people of Albert would also have direct com with Newmarket where most if the people trade and thus be in more direct with the Hub of North York which everybody would appreciate We hope thai the new route may be only to cover of about between Holt and Sharon more than at travelled morning the Postmaster at Newmarket that the new route would commence Monday morning Mount Albert will attll have the evening mail from Toronto on the Sutton branch Jute discovery of his body for nQJ Sir Brown was an activo man The Boat Considering the

comprehensive account of the occupation of South Africa and trouble that led to the present war Having resided for In South Africa two of which were spent in Mr waa con with the situation and very pronounced in his opinion that Eng land wee amply justified for her course ia the war Her of kindness and generosity only made the ima gine that Britons were afraid of them The were described as craftiest moat hypocritical and dirtiest people on the face of earth Every to redress only a to delay the crisis and give more time for war preparation Their treatment native was onjast and the state of corruption in the was each that nothing but war could ever it capture and escape from armed Boers was very interesting Ho considered present war the greatest struggle of the ago not for of new Ufa and at no time was elected Mayor of He was year of ago a wife and two daughters to his sudden departure 1 wealth hut a against and the hops that British supremacy may soon he firmly Africa mot with tho of the the most important bit legislation which bat been introduced during present or which will ho introduced brought up and explained on Tuesday April It was introduce by Hon Mr Davis and is Governments mining hill With the amendments and changes by this act On Law be moat advanced and the moat satisfactory in the world The act seems to three basic principles all of which commend themselves to any inter in mining either directly or indirectly In the first place mining is to bo encouraged and mining development to be not only encouraged but promot ed second place the Province is to get advantage of that mining development for provisions have been satisfactorily made for the reduction of ore in the Province of Ontario The basic principle the hill is important and is very charac teristic of the man who framed the protection of miners who from tho very nature of their work need protec tion In the firet place royalties aro abol ished That will encourage the velppment of tho mines Royalties in a country new to mining are not a- ways advisable because they cannot be a very great source of revenue they act as a scarecrow to capitalists That is precisely what been case in Ontario royalties on mining lands have never brought in a cent of money to the Government and their existence- was a to investor Another important clause relates to mining locations known to bo rich in iron The provide that tons he mined on every acres and if this not complied with mining claim may be revoked A mining claim is also voidable in case the license baa not been renewed the fee not prepaid or 150 has not been prepaid during the year This will be a solution of the difficulty of up the land Whenever a good location has been made speculators have seized upon neighboring claims with no thought at all of developing them but holding them for sale in this manner was development delayed It will he seen then by these two regulations that the mining industry will receive a very great impetus and as far as legislation can go will do more to promote the mining industry ihan by anything that has ever been done by such means But his bill solves another very serious problem and that as well the disputed question of nickel reduction in Canada The bill provides that the may by proclamation impose a tax on the output of mines the maximum rates being per ton for iron ores 6 per ton for zinc ores or per ton if partly heated or reduced Zinc is becoming a very important mineral in Ontario and the reduction of it has been dons for the most part in Belgium Copper 2 per ton or per ton of metal contents Nickel per ton or for metal contents Nickel and cop- per ton or per for metal contents This is a satisfactory embargo on and will solve in the most conclusive and satisfactory method the demand an embargo on this mineral As to the third principle- the regu lations only need to be quoted No liquor shall be Sold within six miles of a mining camp except in towns and incorporated villages Wages shall not he paid in a public house or place of entertainment There are subsections relating to the safety of the miners against explosives and pro tect them against bad ventilation defective shafts and any thing likely to sources of dan ger This hill id one which does in finite credit to the framer of lb This is only one of very many good acts which have been introduced by tho Government during the present session On Tuesday prtmiev an- that had ill- Bit legislation- which would be brought In daring It certain that no session of parliament lias much good legislation brought in by the ad ministration J It would be well to notice gov ernment bills which have been intro duced I will not mention the legis lation is of minor importance Mr Rosa has Introduced a cold storage bill providing that municipalities may engage in storage business or en courage cold storage It may ne stated hero that the opposition oppos ed this bill Mr Rosa also introduced a bill for the drainage of Swamp Lands and to this the found no favor bill by Mr Davis respecting roWng three others of very great have in troduced One gives effect to an prohibiting export of unmanufactured It met with no opposition Another bill pro vided for extension of system of Ranging and not objected to Neither was bill respecting the Pork In fact none of the legislation introduced by Mr Da vis has been opposed by a single word of objection Mr has introduced some important measures most important of which was a bill granting a bounty for growth of sugar beet He also introduced a measure encouraging the formation of cold storage operative companies which of course the follow ers of Mr Whitney objected for it would prove to be a boon to lar- The Minister of Agriculture also in a hill to enable Govern ment to fight the San Jose Scale and other noxious insects which was also put through with the opposition of the Conservative members Hon Mr Gibson introduced a very important Election bill which will bo discussed during the present week Besides this his game bill is worthy of notice as is also his bills respecting the Loan Companies Act and the Law Society Hon Mr Latchford devoted his at tention to the Labor legislation and in troduced very satisfactory meas ures for instance bill respecting the compulsory arbitration of strike the establishing of a tabor bureau the to Shop- Regulation Act as well as an bill to further preserve the fish of the prov ince Hon Mr has further amended School Act and has given notice of an amendment to the Upper Canada College Act which will be of importance Mr has intro duced a bill the establishment of for consumptives a very important measure He also has made some changes in acts re specting companies The ratification of agreement between the Spanish River Pulp Co and the Government was passed by a party vote which shows that all ft rumors of opposition in the Liberal ranks were without foundation and were manufactured out of nothing I JUST OPINED All the best makes in the following lines CARVERS IN CASES AND PEN AND POCKET KNIVEB SGISOR8 ALL KINDS AMD SIZES Also a Fine Hue TABLE
