Some Corrections.
Uornllus never defended the bridge.
The story was mauufactured by the
same gifted author who gave the world
the account of Scaevola's heroism.
Bloiidel , the harper , did not discover
the prison of King Richard. Richard
paid his ransom , and the receipt for it Is
among the Austrian archives.
Queen Elizabeth was not the angelic
creature represented iu the histories
and poems of her own times. Her hair
was red , her temper red hot. She some
times drank too much , and at any prov
ocation -would curse like a trooper. She
frequently swort at her maids , and
sometimes strucL , kicked and pinched
them.
Mary Stuart of Scotland was not a
beauty. She had cross eyes , and , to
save the trouble of having her hair
dressed , cut it off close to her head and
wore n wig. When , after her death , the
executioner lifted her head to show it to
the people , the wig came off and showed
a close cropped skull , covered with gray
hair.
Vinegar will not split rocks , so Han
nibal could not thus have made his way
through the Alps. Nor will it dissolve
pearls , so that the story of Cleopatra
drinking pearls melted in vinegar must
have been a Gction.
The blood of Rizzio , Mary Stuart's
favorite , cannot be seen on the lloor
where he was murdered by Daruley and
the other conspirators. What is seen
there is a daub of red paiut , annually
renewed for the benelit of gaping tour
ists.

MANITOBA'S CAPACITY.
Can Raise Enough Wheat to Fupply
Uritain All trlic Kcquirea from
Abroad.
Toronto , Nov. 10. The World com
ments on the report of the United Em
pire trade league on the capacity of
Canada as a granary for Britain. The
report refers to Manitoba as follows :
Manitoba has an area of 47,000,000
acres. Deducting 10,000,000 for lakes ,
rivers , town sites and waste land , 37-
000,000 acres are left for farm cultiva
tion or homes for 110,000 families on
320 acres each , and as up to now there
are only 27,000 fanners there altogeth
er , that leaves room in one province for
89,000 more wheat growers. Supposing
then we got them there and each one of
them out of his 320 acres grew on an
average 100 acres at 20 bushels to the
acre. If you figure it up you will find
it is quite possible for Manitoba alone
to supply us with all the wheat we re
quire from abroad. It is only a question
of money and , comparatively speaking ,
not money either. The cost of one first-
class battleship ( about 750,000) ) would
put 5,000 families on to farms in the
Northwest , allowing 150 to each to find
them in implements , seeds , horses , etc. ,
and would keep them until their first
crop was harvested. Five thousand
farmers , averaging 100 acres of wheat
each at 20 bushels to the acre , means an
extra 10,000,000 bushels , for if that
scheme is not liked
Britain would put a
duty on foreign wheat.
In addition to the wheat lands of
Manitoba there are the millions of acres
in Assiniboia , Alberta and Saskatche
wan.
