Tbc Doukbobors bad camped oat at nisht without shelter, and the thermometer stood at fourteen degrees belutv the freezing point. The mob consisted of mi'u. women and children. Including infants in arms; one was born during the night, the mother marching in the procession. Some of the nick were borne on litters, some few were barefoot, many wore rubber "boots aud others coarse sandals made of binding twine. t Immigration Agent Spcers succeeded in getting tht sick, women and children, boused in the Immigration sheds and other buildings, much against , . their' >vllls.

Infanta that died on the march were thrown into, bushes by thl roadside. * The first contingent to descend on the town consisted of about 1000 person*. After they bad beeu taken care f a detachment of 400 arrived. Cor* poral J. Nugent and a detachment of mounted police stopped them on the street until arrangements for shelter could he found.

Biscuits were offered >o the children, but they were forbidden to eat them. The Doukhobors' camping ground wa? about three dulles from town, where there waa no shelter except the bush. Parties strayed through the scrub, picking the "God-giren and greaselees** fruit of the rosebush to satisfy their hunger. No labor of snlaula had helped, to produce this fruit, and they could eat it without sin. Their prophet had prophesied that on their arrival at Yorktown their babies would be taken from tbetu. and tbey gave tb?m un willingly, for they take the voice of tbeir prophet as the voice ij of- Rod. Hitherto the Donkbobors hare not .been propagandists, and they have not sought to extend their faith among tbeir Canadian neighbors. Now tbey are cessionaries, and, hare Invited outsiders to join them, thus offering a chance to homestead the fertile lands reserved for exclusive settlement by Donkbobors In all the years they have been here. The Donkbobors later started for Winnipeg, saying the Lord has told them to so. They have left the women and children. They are very quiet and peaceable, but It Is Impossible to ssy what turn their erase will take next. INDICT MAN AND WIFE. B?tk Mr. aa4 Mrs. Rlekmaa Aectutd ?l ktMltoc tb? Matan* Xttklan. Wstertown.

It is alwut nine Inches long, four and a half inches wide, and a little more than that In height.

This lmx contained all the mall, and made every week one round trip, occupying three days in the Journey?from Portsmouth to Boston the first of the week, and three days at the end of the week from Boston to Portsmouth. The distance between the two places is little more than fifty miles.
