A despatch from Quebec says: His Royal Highness the Duke of Connaught is Governor-General of Canada. In this capacity he and the Duchess were on Friday wel- comed ofiiciale by representatives of the Dominion, Of the Province of Quebec, and by the city of Quebec. It was a. great day in the city of Quebec. Demonstration after de- monstration of popular feeling fol- lowed each other during the whole day on every occasion when the Duke and Duchess made their suc- cessive appearances in public. It. hes'been a. day of events, not only of the utmost significance to themselves and to the people of Quebec. but to the whole of Canâ€" CANADA’S ROYAL GOVERNOR cessive appearances in public. It. hes'been a. day of events, not only of the utmost significance to themselves and to the people of Quebec, but to the whole of Canâ€" ada, and to the Empire itself. This began to happen in the morning, when the Duke and his party first set foot on Canadian soil at the King’s Wharf. The Duke and Duch- ess were but Royal visitors to Can- ada. at this hour, and as such they were welcomed by the two leading men of the country, Sir Charles Fitzpatrick, Deputy Governor-Genâ€" eral, and Hon. R. L. Borden, Prime Minister. Arrival of the Duke and Duchess of Con- naught at Quebec Within an hour after they had landed they were no longer visitors. Canada is now their home, and they occupy the highest positions which man and woman can hold in the country. The ceremony of in- stallation, which was performed 'at the Parliament Buildings in the Legislative Council chamber-s, was exceedingly simple, but was none the less fraught with great mean- ing and impressiveness. Three oaths of not more than fifteen words each were all his Royal Highness had to subscribe to. They were ad- ministered by Sir Louis Davies, senior Judge of the Supreme Court. The oath of allegiance to his Maâ€" jesty the King, the oath that he would well and truly exercise his ofiice-as Governor-General to the best of his knowledge and ability, and the oath that he would safely keep the Great Seal of Canada ~â€" these were all. and after each was read to him his Royal Highness reverently kissed a. copy of the Holy Scriptures. ‘ CHINA IN GRIP OF CIVIL WAR Rebels Have Captured Wuâ€"Chang. the Capital of Hupeli. despatch from Hankow, China, says: The revolutionaries have won a. ndtable victory, gaining posses- sion of the city of Wu-Chang after a. battle with the loyal troops that begtm on Tuesday d continued well into the night. commarid- er of the troops defending the city‘ was killed by a. bomb and the Vice- roy escaped only by . hasty flight. The fear of the officials now is that the disaffection in the troops will spread to this city. Five gunboats are now in the river in readiness to protect Hankow, if possible, should necessity arise. The foreign con- euls have also telegraphed their Governments asking that warships be sent, to the scene. Japanese cruisers are expected here immediâ€" ately, while sovera‘. eunhouts are hastening hither. The proclamation of the Revolu- tionary Committee threatened withi decapitation anyone who assaulted a. foreigner. The movement aims at the overthrow of Manchns, the reigning dynasty. The foreign con- suls at a. conference decided not to comply with the Chinese request that they employ foreign gunboats to prevent the. revolutionaries from crossing the river to Hankow. The revolutionaries sent a circular let- ter to the consuls asking that foreigners remain neutral and as- suring them that they would not be harmed. THE SOCIAL SIDE. A luncheon given at the Chateau A despabch from Hankow says: The revolution which has been hanging over China. for months pwst, and of which the rising in the Province of Sze-Chuen was only a small part, has begun in earnest. It is a. concerted movement to take the empire and declare a republic. The noted exiled revolutionist, Dr. A SIMPLE CEREMONY. PLAN TO CAPTURE CHINA. Frontenac by the Dominion Gov- ernment, a dinner at Spencerwood, the residence of Sir Francois Lange- Iier, Lieut.â€"Governor of Quebec, and a reception in the Parliament Buildings later in the evening by Sir Francois Langelier, were the chief of the brilliant events of the “For myself personally I have only one wish, and that is to serve Canada, to make myself at home in this country, and to do all I can to promote its best interests, and also to promote that connection to the Empire which I think of such im- portance to Canada.”_ nwnfi These were the words of H. R. H. the Duke of Connaught, Governor General of Canada, on the occa- sion of the first public event after his installation. It was ‘his first message to the Canadian people as their Governor-General. WARM GREETING AT“ OTTAWA. A des etch from Ottawa. says: One-hm of the population of 0tâ€" tawa. turned out on Saturday afterâ€" noon to welcome to the capital the new Governor-General of Canada. and the Duchess of Oonn’aught. Be~ tween forty and fifty thousand peo- ple must have gathered at the sta- tion, along the streets, and on Par- liament Hill, and it was the greatâ€" est demonstration of enthusiasm the city has seen since the visit of the present King some years ago. Wherever the Viceâ€"Regal party was there was 3, din of tremendous cheering. From the time they ar- rived in the Uni-on Station from their special train, during their procession through the streets, and at the civic reception in front of the Parliament buildings, until they had entered the portals of Rideau Hall, there was quietness for not more than a, minute or two at a time, except during the readin of the addresses to the Duke and w ile ‘his Royal Highness was replying. ' A more truly representative civic reception than that on Parliament Hill there could not have been, _for not only did Mayor Hopewell welâ€" come the Duke and Duchess on be- half of the citizens of Ottawa, but addresses were also presented by the societies of four races of people dwelling in the city-namely, St. George’s Society, St. Andrew’s So- Sun Yat Sen, leader of the anti« Manchu party, if the plans do not miscarry, is to be elected President. He was the delegate of the revolu- tionary party to the United States in 1910, and is believed, during that tour, to have made arrangements for the financing of the movement. Sun Yu, a. brother of Dr. Sun Yat Sen, who is now in Hankow, has been elected President of "the Pro- vincial Assembly, and Tang" Hua Lung, the retiring President of the Assembly, and‘a noted scholar, has been elected Governor of Hu-Peh. The whole Assembly has seceded from the Imperial Government. The rebels are well organized and financially strong. They have conâ€" fiscated the local tre'asuries and banks, and are issuing their own paper money, redeeming the Gov- ernment notes with this, as the foreign banks are refusing the Gov- iernment notes. The revolutionaries have, captur» ed Wuâ€"Chang, the native section of Hankow, and Hanâ€"Yang, all adjoin- ing cities in Hu-Peh Province. Chang-She, capital of Human, is re- ported to have risen in revolt, and Nanking, capital of the Province of Kiang-Su, is on the verge of a lrising, and several public buildings ‘haye been destroyed; ‘ Thousands of soldiers have joined the mutiny in Huâ€"Peh. Many Man- chus have been killed, and the ter- rified people are fleeing from the cities into the country oarrying their belongings. The prisons have been opened and the criminals lib- erated. There has been fighting in the streets, but the most stringent orders have been issued that the lives of foreigners and their pro- nerty shall be respectett THE DUKE’S MESSAGE. ciety, St. Patrick’s Literary and Scientific Association, and St. Jean Baptiste Association. To alL of these the Duke of Conna‘ught made graceful and fitting replies. Suggestions in Report of Quebec’s' Royal Commission. A despatch from Montreal says: Striking statements concerning the spread of the “white plague” in this province are contained in the report of the Royal Commission on Tuberculosis, which has just been published. The report includes the following features: “That the death rate from tuber- culosis is higher in Quebec than in Ontario. or the adjacent States; that, while in other countries the death rate decreased from 40 to 50 per cent. as'a. result of a, wellâ€"or- ganized campaign, it remained staâ€" tionary in Quebec; that the death rate in the rural districts in Que- ies.” The measures against tuberculo- sis itself include an educational campaign showing people that tuâ€" berculosis is infectious and is avoidâ€" able; compulsory disinfection of dwellings; enforcement of by-laws forbidding expecboration in public places; the creation of anti-tuberâ€" culosis dispensaries and isolation of open cases of tuberculosis. ' BAD SITUATION IN PORTUGAL Hesitate to Engage Royalists Near or 011 Spanish Frontier. A despatch from Lisbon. via frontier, says: The Government has recalled in an urgent command all warships that have been operating north, and the whole fleet is now anchored in the Tagus, with steam up night and day, ready to sail. The sailors who had landed to take part in the northern operations against the Royalists have rejoined the crews, which have also been rein- forced. This is accepted as con- firmation of the report that the Royalists have something armed afloat, against which precaution must be taken. The Monerchi-st adventure on land is regarded as lost. The Gov- ernment forcep are concentrated on three sides of the: enemy, which is entrenched near the Spanish bor- der. T-he loyal troops forbear to attack, as it is not quite certain whether the position actually oc- cupied by the Royalists in Spanish or Portuguese. The frontier in that direction has never been clearly de- marked, and if the spwt sloald prove to belong to Spain fighting in the vicinity might start a. serious controversy. Some Coffee Facts From the Lone Star State. From a, beautiful farm down in Texas, where gushing springs unite to form babbling brooks that wind their sparkling way through flow- ery meads, comes a note of grati- tude for delivery from the coffee habit. “When my baby boy came to me five years ago, I began to drink Postum, having a feeling that it "Would be better for him and me than the old kind of drug-laden coffee. I was not disappointed'in it, for it enabled me, a small deliâ€" cate woman, to nurse a bouncing healthy baby 14 months. 1.1 “V... ---J “I have since continued the use of Postum for I have grown fond of it, and have discovered to my joy that it has entirely relieved me of a bilious habit which used to pros- trate me two or three times a. year, causing much discomfort to my family and suffering to myself. (- T0 FIGHT WHITE PLAGUE. “My brotherâ€"in-law was cured of chronic cOnstipation by leaving off coffee and using Postum. He has become even more fond of it than he was of the old coffee. “In fact the entire family, from the latest arfival, (a 2-yearâ€"old who always calls for his ‘potie’ first thing in the morning) up to the head of the house, think there is no «drink so good or so wholesome as Postum.” Name given by Pos- tum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
