Mr. Gladstone then arose and addressed the House, sjicakiug in a full, resonant voice, which was occasionally If ut in marred by a slight huskiness. Mr. of this huskincss, slight spite Gladstone spoke throughout with marvelous energy and vigor. Mr. Gladstone reviewed the action uf the House of Lords in the past, aud said: We have now reached an scute stage. It appesrs that the House of Lords desires to annihilate the whole work of the House of Commons.

At the conclusion of Mr. Gladstone's remarks, he asked the House to accept the House of Lords' amendments to the hill, and they were agreed to. GLADSTONE WILL RESIGN.

An experienced hunter and explorer named C C Emmons has been in the North for the past six months, making explorations along the Canadian boundary. His lips 'are sealed so far as information about hia trip, which relates to the 'country through which he has made explorations, is concerned. Hut he had a story to tell, and it was of a enacted in those far-of- f, dim (trugdy forusta. The tale run thus: The country was very wild, and tho thought often occurred to me thnt if 1 should meet with an accident my disappearance would be as complete a mystery as if I ahould suddenly be trausiiorted to the planet Jupiter, for J would never be discovered. It was my sad pleasure to find, however, the blanched skeleton of somo unfortunate fellow who had preceded me to the heart of this wilderness, and who met with death in its most terrible form. But I will not anticipate. I was following one of tlio small streams tributary to Hainy river, when I suddenly came upon a log cabin in an opening in the tiiqber. I saw at a glance that it was deserted, and now my interest and curiosity were aroused by thii unexpected evidence of former explorations in this neighborhood. The cabin was built of hewn logs of a small size and chinked with mud mixed with graveL I should judge the cabin had been erected early last fall and deserted soon after, or, in fact, before it hail been fully completed.

I went outside the cabin after my Investigation of the interior, fully satisfied that something out of tho ordinary had befallen the man who had occupied it Under ordinary circumstances, if he had decided to quit the place, he would have taken his pock. Here was a mystery, and I was determined to solve It if posstbla was raaioi' than I anticipated.
