The Assembly met at 10 30 aiad con tinuea day sittings on Government days for the remainder of the session. J

Sir William Lyne, in reply to a question, said all matters in connection with the Pacific cable deilt with by the Board in London. He did not know whether any arrangements had been made by which the non-contribut ing colonies would pay the same rates as those contributing. Personally he had no objection so long rs this brought more business

The Truck Bill,'prohibiting the pay ment of workmen in goods v Bt*»d of money, and a Bill reducing; t,h*- sue of coal lumpers' baskets, were pas?ed.

Hints To Singers.

The Daily News publishes an account cf m interview with Mr Sims Jeeves, the famous tenor, in the course of which he spoke «s follows :—I naturally ask<d him, bow he dared use his voiceenough to practice, for how otherwise did he ex tract such pathos and feeling from the songs he sang. Bat with Mr Beeves it was not • question of pract €9 so much, SB that word is usuallj interpreted. "It is because I have read them, and phrased them in every possible way, asked ray self what they meant, and interpreted them according t) my own feeling. I walk np and down, trying this line and trying that, until I feel that I have struck the right idea. Singers do not study elocution sufficiently, if at all. In a citative, for instance, the words are sacrificed to the music. In my method they are of equal importance. Do I love applause? Ah! yes, an artist lires for it. It inspires him. Gives me an enthasiistic, a receptive audience, aad my heart and my voice go oat to them. Often the great sea of faces has affested me—words cannot describe emotions—l have pot forth my greatest efforts Without applause an artist ib timid, frigid, nerveless.

THE SUEZ CANAL.

It ia now thirty years since the Suez Canal was opened. From the ve»y sstart Great Britain took the lead In the tratnc which sh& contributed fco it, and that lead she has maintained ever since. lor every three tons that go through the Canal more than two of them are carried in British bottoms, Lastiyear Britain b total was 6 686 319 tons. Germany came second with 1,070 767, France third with 698, 819, and Holland fourth with 418,8b7. In succession after that came Austro- Hungary, Japan, Russia, Italy, Norway. Spain, and America. The moab extraord inary prorata rise is that of the States In 1898 the Ameroian tonnage on which canal duea were paid was no more than 1831; last year It had jumped to 67,689.

A FAITH HEALER'S PARADISE.

EXTRAORDINARY CREDULITY.

Dr John Alexander Dowie, who has been highly successful in Chicago since he established his "Zion" there 10 yeais ago, saikd from this pjrt a faw days ago for the Holy Land, accompanied by two of bis deacons and a group of secretaries. Probably the people of Melbourne and Sydney have not forgotten Dowie. He says he held pastorates in the Congrega tional Chu eh at Sydney for several years until he began to teach the doctrine of •'divine healing." Having saved thou sands from dyirg in that city by the laying on of hands, he left the Congrfg*. gational Church and went to Melbourne. This 's the story he to?d here just before he took ship >o cross the Atlantic :— ••In Melbourne tons of thousands flacked to me. I built the Free Christian Tabernacle therewith seats for 3000, and every day thousands were turned away I held many open air meetings and collided with the unsympathetic police. I waa twice imprisoned, but my followers bf came co numerous that, to escape their importunities for the founding of a world wide charch by myself, I decided to tray. lfor a tima,"

Ir, web in 1888 that he arrived in San Francisco, Two ye»rs later he became a resident of Chicago, where he boasts t|jat he had been arrested 102 times, had gath ered 50,000 Ziooito followers, and had accumulated property worth 2,000,000 dollars. This is true ■ When Dowie—his name is General Overseer on Earth of the Christian Catholic Church—lefb that city three weeks ago for the Holy Laud, the number of the Zionists accompaninjr him to the tailwaystatioD was so great that the atreetd were blocked for some time. Ha was escorted by the Z:on Guards, whose duty Is to defend him against assassins. Men wepc as be departed. This man had had set in Chicago eight tabernacles and saailoriumi /or the practice of divine heal* Ing. In the management of the latter he was, for a long time, at variance with the Bjard of Health. He has established Zion ColJpge, and hisZlon Printing house publishes a weekly, a fortnightly, and a monthly magazine. Of the members of his church one thousand are missionary healerp. The business aid a of Zion is represented by a bank, a land company, a lace factory, and bba beginnings of Zion City, the eight of which, on a tracbof 6000 acres, eitnated on the Shore of Lake Michigan 42 miles north of Chicago, was '^consecrated " by himself in July ]astf in the presence of 10,000 Zionititß. The value of the property accumulated and held by him as absolute owner—but In trusb, he saya for the church—is, esti mated at ai out 2,00 ),000 dollars. Near ly all the Zionists are working men. Chicago is fertile soil for the operations of men o? the Bowie type.
