For this reason he moved the Legisla ture adjourn till April 1G. The motion was of course carried. Iiieut.-Gov. Patierson then nysented to tho bills passed and "the Legisla ture adjourned. Although there are very general ex pressions of hope that the conference may result In an amicable settlement of the controversy, those who have ETiven the subject careful" attention fail to see how It can be effected. Tin; Manitoba Legislature ban repeatedly affirmed Us determination to maintain the national school system and not to re-establish Separate schools. The Ite* medial bill just -paisslug its second readine in the House of Commons pro vides for the'restoration of Separate schools in Manitoba. It appears, there fore, there can bo no amicable arrange ment unless one side surrenders. It h pretty sale to w^agei- that Manitoba won't. If, however, the remedial order and bill are consigned to oblivion there is Utile doubt, but that the Manitoba school law will be so amended as *U give the greatest freedom in the mat ter of religious Instruction while at the same time maintaining one syst^:r of etliclent schools.

Tlie tallc at Salvation Army headquarters yester day was that when Commander and Mrit.Tuclcer-Iiooth come to take com mand here they will bring from Gen. Booth a message of peace and love for his son, liadllngum, aud authority to heal the breach between the two lunc- tiooa. Nothing short of absolute re union, however, will bo accepted by . th^o General, it is said. t.. Tho latest influential recrutta to tho . ranlca of Ualllngton Booth are Adjt. Washington Blaokhurst of Chicago, and Adjt. Trumble, formerly bandmas ter of tho regular Salvation Army there. Adjt. Blackhurst said yesterday that Col. Eadle had laborc-d long and ; earnestly to dissuade him from seced ing, but without avail. Adjt. Trumble*a secession Is partly due to a littlo scene enacted during the tea tendered by Eva Booth to her otaff on Monday. . On that occasion 13riff. Perry remark ed: "If I were going to leave the Sal vation Army, I would not need to do , It by way of the Bible House. I would > rather go by way of the saloon or ' the theatre." Trumple and others took offence at what they considered a slur on theli* old commanders. I Major Smith and Eva Booth went to I Chicago to-day. 'SOJtOSTO MAJtlilSTH.

Jiehig asked whether the chlefu of tho army jitlll have any real hope nf a reconciliation, with Hulllngton Iiooth the Hucrutnry said; " uli, deai, y.s.

Much amused comment In excited hero by the report cabled from New York of the discussion, outworn female members or the new army on tho ques tion of a more tasteful costume, par- llcularly a more stylish bonnet than that of the old Army. The secretary unid : " Well, General Booth won't nay anything on that, matter, but It In ono of thn.o Incidents which have made us form, the conclusion that IhUlinston in not quite himself ; It Is no unlike- him an wo know him," "Is not your simple costume," was asked, " one of the distinctive marks of the Army, to symbolize Its unworld ly character?" " Yes," tho secretary answered, "that is so, and if the cabled r,tatement be true that a chanr.e in that respect hrui bot-n resolved on by Balllnr-ton. it la uultc Inexplicable to us," Tho World's representative gathered from-thcrHPcretary's manner that Thxl- linpton Booth's" defection Is a very painful" subjict with the Army chiefs. There was an evident determination to nay nothing1 that could lessen the chance of reconciliation. New York, March 2a. There has been a ohantfo In. the name- of Jlalllnffton Booth's new army. " GocI "and "Amor- loan " have boon eliminated from ,tho title. This happened between two. days. On Thursday night.npou the various doors which are Invariably "clon'-d," and up on the one by wb'ch visitors may enter the room In wb \h Major Peter Glen guards the approach to the ofllces of Mr. and Mrs. Month, was emblazoned In.the tricolor the legend, "God's Am erican Volunteers." These name doors yceterday allowed only this label, "The Volunteers." The slfyn painter had been there, like the Scriptural "thief In the nitfht," and with his brush had caused patriotism and providence to vanish from those portals, like the morning cloud and the early dew. Another change In the plans Is also announced. It concerns the women's dress- Two day a uk'o all arrangements were.made for the Salvation lassies to go clad In brown garb, like sober little "Jennie Wrens." But a newspaper suggestion that the new uniform would lie becoming to the blondes, yet the dark-haired on s thinking very serious ly that the one opportunity of their liven to secure :i becoming frock was being- let si:p. Tho result is that M,rs. Iiooth has been appealed to, and has "reconsidered," und the falr-Command- ress yesterday recalled the order for brown gowns and bonnets, sent the rolls of russet cloth back to lhe ware house, and pretty nearly decided to or der from a set of samples of " cadet blue." This color will set oft' both dark and fair complexions admirably. If It Is finally settled upon, the bon nets will have to be of white straw for summer, which will lend the uni formly pleasing air of lightness and coolness entirely unknown to th'.ir for mer black coalscuttle .headpieces. "Salvationists In Australia always wear white pokes, as more suited to the warm climate," s:ald an ofllcer in reference to the matter ; " and In Can ada In tho cold season thoy wear fur hats. I see no reason why there- should not be a modification to'suit the tem perature and tastes In this section." Naming the paper seems tn be the only thing In tho way of getting the new army periodical on Us feet very shortly. Balllngton Booth cannot de cide what to call It, anil yesterday Im plored his visitors to give him sug gestions. TO IVAMiH JtKt.'OXcrLIA TlON, General Rootli Order* ol. Kudlc (o Otarn L> lo London. New York, March 22. The first step in a plan to effect a reconciliation be tween the Ballington Booths and the leadera of the Salvation Army"hu-s been taken by Gen. William Booth, who has ordered Col. .Radio to return, to Lon don. Col. Eftd.e is* blamed for the troubles in the Army, because it is said It was his mn-hlnatlonu against Commander Balllngton Booth that stirred up opposition to his son in tho general's mind.
