A fortnight ago, on the plains of the Ca- nadian Northwest, near Calgary, a reporter met a missionary of the Church ofEngland, who was on his way to visit his brother at Brandon, several hundred miles cast. His field of work is in the prairie wilderness south of Calgary, where his parish extends to the boundary line. “ It is fourteen months,” he said, “ since I came out from anland to begin the life of a missionary on these prairies. I ex- pected the change would be very great, but I was overwhelmed when I realized the en- tirely new conditions under which I must live. My parish is 100 miles long and forty miles wide, and at least once a year I am expect d to visit every person in it. It is a pretty hard life, and sometimes I wish I were in old England again.” The speaker was about ‘28 years of age a. fairly educated young man from the English provinces, full of earnestness and evidently possessed of considerable perseverance. He Was in clerical dress, wore a broad brim med, black felt hat, and seemed rather uncom- fortable iu the heat, which the sun was pouring down upon the plains. “ I live all alone,” he continued. “ Some- times Ido not see a human being for days together. I had a little shack put up for me to live in. It is a common pine board shanty of one room, and in it I have my li- brary my bed, and cook stove. Thero of has proved to be leaky, and when I go h-Icl: shall try to patch it up, for a good rain storm makes things very damp. I live largely on tinned meats and flour, which I procure at Calgary. Sometimes a hunter or an Indian gives me bit of game which is quite a treat. “ No one knows till he tries it himself how many discouragements there are in the life of a frontier missionary. I often travel ten miles to keep an appointment to preach, and not a soul comes to the place. Two weeks ago I travelled eighteen miles, and only two men came to the meeting house. They said that as no one else had come it wasn't worth while for melo preach, and so they went away. The largest congregation I have addressed was eighteen people. I am compelled to keep a horse, which. fortunate- ly, costs me nothing for feed, as he picks up his living on the plains. I am in my Mexi- can saddle, on his back, a good deal of the time.” “ \Vhat salary do you missionaries get ?" “ The Missionary Society of England pays me $400 a. year. The Bishop of Iny diocese gives me, in addition, $100 from the funds in his charge. A collection is always taken up at the meetings for my benefit. Some- times it amounts to ten or fifteen cents, and sometimes I get- as much as fifty cents or a dollar. Many of the people are not in sym- athy with my work, and do not care to ielp it along. I thought an occassional wed- , ding might eke out my income, but I have \not had a. single marriage ceremony to per- rm as yet. has been more fortunate, for he has had seweral weddings. The largest audience I have addressed was at a funeral, where over 100- hundred people were present. I have not read a book for months. In fact,I have very little time to read. I am in the saddle most of the day, and when at home am engaged in preparing my meals, mending my clothing and other duties of the house. ” “ I presume you are looking forward to better times soon,” said the reporter. “Yes, I think I shall stick to my work. The discour. Ving feature has been that I have not been able to see that I was (icing Inuch good. Perhaps I shall see better re- sults in the future. Ranchnien are coming into the the country, and its population before many years will be much greater than it is now. I shall not then pine, as I do now for human society, and as I get better aquainted and little churches are started' my list of friends will increase, and I shall find missionary life more pleasant. I some times think that it Would be more agreee. g able to be a missionary in Africa or India, for there, at least, I could find plentyof people among whom to labor without going miles and miles to see them, and then lind very likely that there was no one there to meet me.” DOGS FED FROM THE DINING GAR. They Have lhc Choices! Crumbs that hill from lhc Tourlsl's Table. Fort William, on the north shore of Lake Superior, seems venerable enough With its two or three buildings, a century old, of the Hudson Bay Company and the Catholic Fathers ; for nearly every other hamlet be- tween Ottawa and \Vinnipeg was called into being by the Canadian Pacific Railroad, and is therefore in its infancy. lletween Fort William and \Viniiipcg the nilroad traverses a very wild region, dotted and streaked by lakes and rapid rivers, and cow-red with small timber greatly charred by fire. There is scarcely a wilder strelch of road along this transcontinental highway. At Savanne, well on the way to Winnipeg, a spectacle is witnessed twice a day that amuscs the travellers on the Atlantic and the Pacific express trains. As the trains halt for a few minutes at the station a hum- ‘ ber of half-bred Indian women are always seen on the platform, and as they are about the first specimens of the sort that are met ' on the journey west, the travellers gaze at them with considerable interest. Their at- tention, however, is suddenly diverted to the other side of the track, where twenty or lhirly dogs of various breeds are seen, some ‘ of them linc specimens of the Hudson Bay dog and others of mongrel descent and (lis- reputable appearance. All are gathered around a pile of kitchen refuse which has been thrown out by the dining car cooks. All stray scraps of meat arc kept by the cooks until they reach Savanne, where twice a day, upon the arrival of the west and the eastbound trains, the dogs have a lino least. The owners of the animals never prclmul in supply them with food, and the (lugs l_lL'll"‘llll entirely upon the treat they gel from the dining cars. There is alwlys sure to lo (‘11- ough for them, though their appeiill-s are very keen, and the scramble fol lhc choicel morsek Is heartily enjoyed by the lunkCI‘S-l 01]. These dogs are owned by the half breeds, and are very useful in winter as sledge teams. Hudson Bay slcdgcs, to which thev hitch their dog teams and bring home the products of the chase. Savanne is probably the most southerly point where dog sledges are in use. The trains stop only a few minutes, The Presbyterian missionary ‘ Thelhalf breeds hunt and they have ‘ land when they pullout the crowd of (logs ' may still be seen pushing and snarling . around the garbage heap, and they may be trusted to keep closely to it until they have devoured everything salable. Watkins Eiffel Tower: Sir Edward “'ntkin's project of an “ Eifl'cl ” Tower for London has assumed substantial form. An estate of ".380 acres has been purchased, a company formed without application to the public, a plan has been approved, a station erected on the con- tiguous railway, the foundations of “ The Tower " have been commenced, and on hatnrday a largo party of representatives of the press were conveyed from Baker-st. to \Vembley Park in twelve minutes to see what was going on. The ground acquired is undulating and woody. The estate is nearly divided between the building pro- 'perty and the ornamental park, with its “ Tower " and \Vinter Garden. A fine lake of over five acres is being formed by the aid of the Upper llrent River, which will be pleasant for boating in summer and the scene of curling, rinking and skating in winter. The tower will stand on the highest emin- ence in the park, from which, at present, pretty views are to be seen extending some miles beyond the immediate surround- ings. The design of Mr. Stewart, one of the competitors for the prize awards, has been adopted as the basis of the plan, and Nlr Benjamin Baker has been associated with him in the construction. The tower will be mainly supported on four large concrete blocks, in dimensions ‘26 feet long by ‘20 feet bread, and ‘25 feet deep. The excavation for one of these blocks is nearly completed, the geological formation of the hill being stiff clay. The elevation of the site is about 14-0 feet higher than the site of the Paris tower, and the ironwork of the WeInblcy tower will be l,000 feet. As this willstand on a sort of pedestal portion of 150 feet, the total height will be 1,150 feet. or 350 feet above the Paris example. The roads and ornamental grounds are being prettily laid out by Mr. Miller, and there is uhdoubl cdly an attractive settlement being formed which if it can be always reached with the prompt- itudc of Saturday’s journey, should prove a popular place of resort as well as residence. >____.._ Toronio‘s Great Fair. The wheel of time has again revolved and the people of Canada are invited once again to visit Toronto‘s great Industrial Fair, which will bo held this year from the 7th to the lilth of Sept. Many important altera- tions and improvements have been made in the buildings since last year. The attrac- tions on this occasion will be on a far more extensive and elaborate scale than ever before. Space in all the buildings has been applied for earlier than usual this season, and the live stock and agricultural depart- ment is away ahead of any previous year. All intending exhibitors should bear in mind that the time for receiving entries will close I in a few days, after which the books will I 3not be again opened. In conclusion, we may say we cannot recommend a more pro‘ fitable or interesting holiday trip than a. a. visit to the Toronto exhibition. During its continuance the cheapest rates of the year will prevail on all railways. P. Living Queslious are most esteemed by every intelligent man and woman.
