The Emperor expressed great admiration of the new vessel, which represents a record achievement not only for a German but, for any shipbuilding yard.

It is only twelve years since the first at steamer of the North German Lloyds Com- pany was ordered to be built at Stettin. Up to 1886 avery North German Lloyd's stonnier had been built in England; and even in 1890, the placing of an order for a fust steamer with a German Yard was by many people, considered a risky venture, there being an iden abroad that a first-class ship could only be constructed in England.

The Chefoo correspondent of the N.-C. Daily News writes:-On part of Tuesday and Wednesday, the 2nd and 3rd inst., the typhoon foretold in Shanghai at the end of the previous week reached Chufoo. The steamers anchored on the other side of the harbour, under the bluff, were shielded in part from the north wind. The waves came rolling up the shore driving everthing before them clear up to the stone walls built in front of several houses near to the beach. One wall in the settlement was entirely swept away. The wall around St Andrews's Church had a big hole pierced into it by a huge timber that came floating in from the sea. The steamers from other ports, being duly warned, did not sail till aftor the typhoon. The first steamer from Shanghai reached her yesterday noon Several others came in during the after-

WHAT IS PAIN BALM ? HAMBERLAIN'S Pain Balm is a liniment and, while adapted to all the ordinary uses of a liniment, hus qualities which distingnish it from other romedies of this class. Pain Balm is especially benefi- cial for rheumatism, Thousands of casus can be cited in which it has effected a cure when the suffover had previously tried the best medical service without securing relief, Pain Balm is positively guaranteed to give relief in the most severe cases of chronic or scute rheumatism.

Pain Balm heals bruises, burns and scalds in lean time than any other treatment. It is antiseptic' that is, it prevents putrefue tion and by so doing, generally prevents an unsightly scar remaining after the injury is healed. For lame back, lumbago and neu- ralgia, Pain Balm has no equal. It has the quality of getting to the right spot. No sufferer from these distressing affections should defer a trial of this remedy. One application gives relief. Try it. For sale by All Dealers; WATKINS Ltd., General Agents.

LUELA E CRES 7. ULTMANN AND CO.

This was application by Luela Frères for an interita injunction against Ullmann and Co. to restrain them from using trade warka purchased by the plaintiffs last year from Bovet and Co., pending the hearing of an application for injunction.

Mr M. V. Slade, instructed by Messrs Deacon and Hastings, appeared for the plaintiffs, and Mr C. D. Wilkinson (of Messrs Wilkinson and Grist) for the defen- dants.

The evidence disclosed by the affidavits eled by the plaintiffs was that the marks in question. the principal one of which was the mari: calledYeo No, had been used by the firm of Bovet and Co. for very great number of years upon watches sold by them, and that during the last few years the sale of these watches had considerably decreased in consoquence they now alleged of the sale of inferior watches sold by the defendants and others at cheaper prices. The ovidence on behalf of the defendants was that they had used the

On being placed into his carriage Colonel Murray, in a few sentences, thanked the people for his reception, and expressed his Murray, who accompanied the Colonel, pleasure in being amongst them again. Mrs drove home with him."

HOME.

On reaching the entrance to the estate several young stalwarts stood ready with ropes to pull the carriage. The horses were taken out of the carriage, and willing hands dragged it up the avenue to the house. Here the most elaborate decorn- tions were exhibited. Halfway up the avenue was an arch over which was hung the motto East, West, Hamo's Best." Further up the avenue, at the entrance to the lawn, was erected another beautiful arch. On the side facing the avenuo wero the words Better lo'l ye canna be,' while on the side facing the mansion was the motto l'ence with honour. The front of the building presented a very pleasing sight. In the centre of the building over the porch Welcome home was hung in blazing colours, and in very large letters, while directly above was suspended the family's coat of arms. High up on the face of the building was the most appropriate motto in Gaelic, A thousand welcomes to our soldier hero.'

Colonel Murray, on the carriage being drawn up at the main entrance, addressed the gathering. Words, he said, would not rise freely to his lips when he sought to convey to them what were his feelings on reaching home, and being greeted with such honour and kindness. He said he could not find words to express himself adequate. The welcome he had received that day was a thing to live for. He hardly thought he deserved all the honour that had been bestowed upon him by such a He was very proud of the associations of reception. He appreciated it (cheers). his family in Easter Ross, and fie was sorry that he had not been able to live there as much as he would like (cheors). He again thanked them for their hearty recep-

A pleasant little function then took place in front of the mansion house, when Colonel Murray was presented with an address of welcome and congratulation on his safe return home from South Africa,

His method of examination is a very ingenious and ac- curate one, and by it he should be able to 748 ascertain the proper glasses for the cor- rection of all the errors of refraction met with in the eye.
