Sir Edward Grev, wtio snoke on the suited the other day. had HOThiug new to ,vay about it. Whatever agreement may he arrived at. thtle wilt cc-nalniy be peotile on each side, as he sa.d, who will mot be eouteH'eu with the j'eyult; but, on the other k;iL others:, will be keenly dis- re-,i(-hedtI" Tee wait-and-see policy is the only one. It is estimated that the visit of the Queen's Own Kifes, Canada's crack regi- ment., to this country, will cost its Colonel, Sir Kerry Peliatt. at, least £ 30,000. for he has insisted on paying all the expenses of the visit, instead of applying for a Govern- ment gr;.ibt. It ifr the first time a complete regiment i rom any Colony has visited tt, Motherland. 'Hie "Gaiiant Q.O.B. as it is the Dominion, have I recen^lv celebraled their Jubilee in Toronto. I They HAVE S-.II interesting history, beginning on April 2t>, 1SW». when they were enrolled j as the "Second Battalion Volunteer Militia [ Rifles of Canada." They took an active n:nt in rel,dli\ t h, Fenians, and lost m j one fight seven killed and twenty-three j seriously wounded. They were called out! again when the Kid rebellion broke out in 18e5, and they sent several detachments to j the South African war. It was Bugler Williams, of the who sounded the charge on Ig,ager at Paardeberg. The regiment kas come over" for a, month's at Aldershot with the Regulars, and from September 13 to It) they will have, four davs' holiday in London, and will prob- ably be inspected by the King at Bucking- ha ni Palace. A great crowd of sightseers of a morbid tUrJI, of mind gathered at Euston to witness the arrival of a man and woman who have taken up a great deal of in the news- papers during the last mofath or two. These were Dr." Crippen and Miss Le Neve, whose dfdincation in mid-ocean and arrest 4n i Canada bv means of wireless telegraphy j make one of the most seusa tional chapters in the history of crime. The sightseers did not see much of a sight after all, for the detectives hurried their charges iuto taxi- e-abs and the pari y drove rapidly away amid a volley of groans and hisses. Another crowd (,J- moved by morbid and UIl- healthy curiosity, waited nearly all day in Bow-stree1 to see the unhappy pair drive up to the police-station, and as soon as they were recognised there was another discredit- able outburst of booing arid yelling. The two prisoners were lodged for the night in room* at the station, under the constant sur- I veillance of police officers I It appears that the people who protested if I s tlitt- exhibition of pictures of the John^on-defTries prize fight on the ground that 11tev pandered to the worst instincts of human nature were gravely mistaken. The film. and photographs are intended to teach a salutary moral lesson, and the people who I -•arranged for the photographs to be taken, so far from desiring merely to make money out of them, were aci uated by the very highest motives. So, at least, one gathers from a circular sent out by a cinematograph -com- pany which ofly-ii ihe tight slides for next to not hing. Thes- f.ay* the circular, "are the genuine and for any exhibitor wishful to lecture to his audiences on the brutality of prize fights no better illustra- tions could be obtained." One can imagine the xplendid woral lesson which could be dram from this- a quotation from the circu- lar Thirteenth round: J. Johnson lnwek. Jeffries almost through the ropes. His die- tress is horrible, while the blood can plainly Ire ween in the photograph." No doubt ■orgy II is era of P.S.A.'s could obtain specially favourable terms. About live hundred delegates, representing a million II nd three-quarters of organised worker*, will attend the Trades Union Con- gress Mr Sheflield which opens on Monday week. This year's Congress, in view of the position created by the Osborne Judgment, will be one of the most important in the hi«- tory of trades unionism. The Congress is extremely forturiwt* in having as its ud, an important peca^imt. Mr. C. W. %.I.V., who is acting- dur- ing the regrettable illness of Mr. Steadman. Witeit the need arises for the election of a new secretary. Congress is hardly likely to look further than Bower man, for the member* know that if they xe arched throughout the land th"y would hardly find another mtui capable of doing them such good jiervioe. He is one of the ablest oo the La bout' member*, ha* been Chairman of the Printing ami Kindred Trades Federation since its formation,' and was Secretary of the London Society of Compositors for fourteen y-ars. T" liMIt he was Chairman at the S-!D»ii«-a ('ortyr-m, and has held many otkor int|ottani positions in the Trade Union world. He has that "highly necessary quali- fication for a Secretary of Congress, a tre- mendous capacity for work. The amount ef business he guts through i a nsver failing -nur.oe vi asionishmeiit eTeft to those 1r. know him best. Trusted by the men and esteemed by the employers, he j an impor- tant asset to trade unionism. iaOTI Among the many other interesting things to he seen at the Japan-British Exhibition there is now on view a collection of fajus such .■is has not been shown before in any exhibi- tion in the world. Many of these exhibits av«"- of priceless historical value, while their artistic beauties are incomparable. Two exyuisite specimens are lent by Qneécm Mary, one by the Queen Mother, and one by Prhi- cess Christian. The coronation fan, of the finest Irish lace, and its ivory slicks with diamond rivets, presented by the Worshipful Company of Fan-makers to Queen Alex- andra, has pride of j -.nee. Many of the painted fans are wonderful. One lent by Princess Louise ennt;1Ín1\ ,.eH!i jb anil-pain ted medallions with ivory sticks, end was the j»it'fc of the Pri.ice Consort Uv Queers Victoria.

SUICIDE'S FAREWELL. An inquiry at Castletown, Isle of Man, dis- elo«ted the Had ei'-ctunstances of the drown- ing of John Christiansen, a grocer, of Lis- card, Cheshire. On Tuesday lie left home without aayiu-g he, Wa-t Thame night, at half-past eleven, having apparently walked to Castletown from Douglas, he entered all hotel and asked for a bed. Next day his body was found on the remote San ton beach. His brother told the jury that after a brave i-t niggle to redeem a business his father left him deceased was forced to face bankruptcy. D--ceased sent the following' letter to his w "1 suppose you are wondering where I have got to. Well. I am in the Isle of Man. I felt I could not stand the worry and trouble much longer. I am exceed- ingly sorry f0r the trouble .1 have eaused you." I trust you win be happy some day. Think of me kindly, and do not grieve too much. I know it will be hard. I your family for their kindness. May God forgive me, for sake. May we meet in a. better world.—Good-bye, love.— JOHN." A verdict of "Suicide thrO-Ugh temporar" insanity" was returned.

TWO RAILWAY ACCIDENTS. Two railway accidents, fortunately result- ing in no very serious injuries, occurred av the same 81wt. a hundred yards outside vic- toria Station, London, on the Brighton, aud South Coast- Railway, on Saturday. •The first took place at six o'clock in the morning, an empty passenger coach of a Portsmouth train leaving the the points by Rbury Bridge. The mishap in- velved no injuries to anyone, but caused con- siderable delay to morning traftie on the out- lyie. going line. The second, and more serious accident, happened at ten o'clock on Saturday night, the engine of an empty train leaving the n,iJ. aud coming into collision with an incom- ing- train from West Croydon. The sides of the first two coaches were badly damaged, and Miss Ruth Cavling, a draper's assistant), of Twickenham, who was in the first coach, sustained a fractured and other injuries. She was removed to St. George's Hospital, and is now progressing satisfactorily. The late' traffic on the down line was greatly disorganised by the, accident, and ;1, large number of excursion trains were held up until the early hours of the morning.

HALL PORTER AT NINETY TWO, Over half-a-eenturv service is credited to each of five officials engaged in the Irish Courts of Justice, according to" Parliamentary return. Mr. H. Doyle, chief clerk in the King's Bench Bankruptcy Division, now 77 years old, was appointed io his-office-sixty years ago. Another official has tifty-three years' service, and a third iiftv-two-aud-svhalf. and the fourth fifty- one. Mr*. G. R.. Price, of the Chancery Regis- trar's Office, is 78 years of age. and has held the }»>A of registrar for nearly eleven years. | Numerous other officials are upwards of t;6 years' of age. and many can look back on up- wards Of" forty years' service. But these age records a re--eclipsed by that of a hall porter. He is !)2 years of age, and was appointed thirty-niiie years ago.

Find-class petty officer F. E. Morton, one of' the finest, rifle and revolver shots at Bartonr« Point Naval rifle range, Skeerness, has been accepted as a volunteer fol. in the Canadian Navy arid will join the Niobe as gunner's mate.
