prisoner by Captain Young of the R.N.W.M.P. On July 26 he was tried. The little square building on the corner of Scarth and Victoria was supplied with a telegraph office and from its wires were flashed to a thousand and one points each hour ' s proceedings of the trial which ended in conviction. After several respites Riel was finally executed at the police barracks on 16th of November. He died calm, resigned, brave, passionless, and forgiving , assisted on the scaffold by Father Andre. The nascent city of Regina had also its martyr, in the person of Father Graton. On Saturday, March 7, 1891, Father Graton was returning from one of his many missions, to Regina, where his ministry was needed the following day. He pushed on through the snow until his horses gave out. When his companion returned with fresh horses, he found the priest dying. He went off again to seek aid but before he arrived Father Graton had died, a martyr to his duty. Such were the picturesque beginnings of the city which is now an edu¬ cational, religious, and military centre. With the vitality of youth, Regina has come smiling through a period of combined drought and depression, and in this year of her diamond jubilee the Queen City of the plains can really boast that she is sixty years young. —F. S. Rev. Father Hugonard and Indians, 188 ' ) THIRTY-ONE
