ls Celebrated in the Usual Manner by Service at St. ‘ Dunstans

The "dear little Shamrock" was

very much . in evidence yes- terday march 17th when St. Patrick ’s Day was observed

by the Irish Societies of Charlottet- own by their usual church parade. The custom of the past in gnving the parade on Monday when the day fell on Sunday was departed from this year and yesterday ‘afternoon the A. O. H., headed by the League of the Cross Band and marshalled by Frank Murray, and the B. I. 8., with the 4th Regiment Band and Marshalled by Edward Ready, turned out in great strength and the pro— cession,was one lof the best in the history of the observation of Ire- land's Patron Saint in Charlottet- own. /

The parade formed up at 2.30 and marched up Queen St. to Grafton, down‘ Grafton to Prince, from Prince to Richmond and from Richmond to Gt. George St and St. Dunstan's Cathedral. - Throngs viewed the possession a— long the route and the large Cathed- ral was filled to overflowing, many being unable to obtain admittance. The service of Benediction took place and a strong address on the life of St. Patrick and his accom- plishments, along with the latter day religious and educational progress of the country St. Patrick had labored for was delivered by Rev. Dr. Smith of St. Dunstan‘s College.

W. J. Brown sang Mlliard’s Ave Maria in beautifulivoioe and Use accompanied by Mrs. R. B. Brown, who also assisted her father Judge Blanchard. organist and Choirmaster of the Cathedral.

At the service Rev. J. '1‘. Murphy of, St. Dunstan's gave Benediction as- sisted by Rev. Maurice McDonald of the Catnedral and Rev. D. P. Crokcn of St. Dunstan’s College.

The day was sunshiny and bright overhead while the walking for the so -cities was much better than is usual this time of the year. The League Band made an excellent impression and with their more experienced mum ical friends, the boys of the Fourth Regiment, provided a splendid pro-

gram of sacred and national airs on

route.

OTTAWA, March 14,—At *1 the opening of the house of commons to- day, Hon. J. D. Hazcn introduced a bill to amend the fisheries act with reference to the oyester tisheriec ol the maritime provinces. “In late years," he said, "these fisheries, which were at one time very valu- able, have now become, owing to over-fishing, largely depleted, and the result has been that tho fisher— ies show a falling. off in the output year by you. For some years past the commissioner of fisheries in my department has been endeavoring to come to some arrangement with the government of the provinces of NOVa Scotin, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island, with a. view to the improvement of those fisheries.

i “The 'lnatter was taken up by my predecessor in the department with the. governments of those three pro— vinces, and a proposal was made that fishing leases should be grantcd

by the provincial governments tem- selves.

"Unfortunately that proposition has not been accepted by all the pro- vincial governments, for while Nova Scotia and New Brunswick have signified their willingness to sign an agreement, the province of Prince Edward Island refused to do so. Some objections seems to have arisen of late also in New Brunswick. The result is that the government is face to face with this condition of afluirs: that unless something is done, with— in a few years, that industry, which was at one time so flourishing and valuable, will be largely depleted and is in great danger of disappear» ing altogether.

The important provision bill is as follows:—

“The governor-in—conncil may, upon such terms and conditions as are a- greed upon, authorize the government of any province to grant leases of

of the

such areas ,Of the seacoust, bays, iii- lets, hnrhors, creeks, rivers and es». tuaries of such province as the gdv« ernmcnt of such province considers suitable for the cultivation and pro- duction of oysters, and any person to whom such lenses are granted by such provinces shall, subject to the fishery regulations of Canada, have the exclusive right to the oysters produced or follud on the beds within the limits‘of their respective leases." There is appended a guarding clause us to the rights of the Do» minlon as to harbors. ‘ "The view the department takes." said Mr. Hazen, f‘is that something has to be done to prevent the: de- struction of those fisheries, and if the provinces themselves will take over those beds, subject to the air provai of the governor—in-council, mid sublet them to individuals, 'tlie effect, it is hoped and- expected, will be the restoring and replenishing of those oyster beds."
