 observance have t(t bo scrupulously 
 observed in all parts of the province, 
 by all classes and sects until 
 
 The Sabbath morn its Holy Cahii 
 
 Breathes o'er the prairie lands, 
 And the answerintf heart hears 
 Nature's psalm. 
 
 And the wild woods clap their hands. 
 
 There is an entire separation of 
 church and state. Each church has 
 to be maintained, as in other parts of 
 the American continent, by voluntary 
 contributions. "But," as a recent 
 writer has said " the result has shown 
 that to be deprived of Government 
 (support is no great loss for a church. 
 Every part of America has demon- 
 strated that the sympathies and en- 
 ergies of a church are more deveh^ped, 
 and its more intelligent and careful 
 management secured, when the peo])le 
 support their own clergy by individ- 
 ual contributions." In no part of 
 America are the various relig' >us or- 
 ganizations more energetic than in 
 this prairie land. All parts of the 
 province are well supplied with chap- 
 els and services by all the letiding 
 denominations of the Christian 
 chui ch. In fact the great problem to 
 be solved today is, not how to supply 
 the people with services, but rather 
 how to consolidate and harmonize the 
 various sectarian prejudices of the 
 people as to render fewer churches 
 necessary. In a sparsely settled coun- 
 try like ihis, if the inhabitants of a 
 district divide up into denominations, 
 as is often the case, each church has 
 but a small attendance of worshippers, 
 whereas if all were united there would 
 he one congregation sufficiently lai'go 
 to give the preacher some encourage- 
 ment to preach the word with power. 
 This difficulty is avoided in many 
 cases by an arrangement between the 
 different churches whereby the serv- 
 ices of the diff'erent denominations in 
 a locality are held at different hours. 
 Again the Sunday schools, which are 
 general throughout the country, are 
 
 fre((uently union schools, wlu're chil- 
 dren of Cvhristian parents of all creeds 
 attend the one Sunday school. 
 
 TJius with ample and free provision 
 for the education of its inhabitants the 
 province can with safety allow abso- 
 lute liberty of con.science tt) its people. 
 
 Nor h"cils the sctjiticr's punv liands 
 
 While near he^>lc■hools tlie chnroliHpiru stands; 
 
 Nor fears tl\t' hlindi-d liiffot's rule 
 
 While near her (tlmroh-spire stands the school. 
 
 Here a man-may build and furnish 
 his home in accordance with his means 
 and taste.s. All kinds of bHiltling 
 materials are easily [)rocure<l at a 
 reasonable price, and all forms of 
 furnishings necessary or desired for 
 the comforts of life are readily ob- 
 tained. In all parts of the province 
 all modern convenience;, are accessi])le. 
 Railways traverse all parts of tlie 
 country and railway stations arci 
 placed at all convenient points. There 
 are in the province over two hundred 
 stations, around which cluster small 
 towns and villages. There are nlso 
 in the province over six hundred 
 post offices, served daily, tri-weekly, 
 or f-emi-weekly with mails, thus sup- 
 plying the settlers in the remotest 
 districts with the news oi: the world, 
 and giving ready communication with 
 friends in the ol<l land. 
 
 Not only is the railway and mail 
 service complete, but the telegraph 
 service, in all parts, is also complete, 
 while the cities and towns are all sup- 
 plied with electric lights, telephones, 
 and other modern "onvenienceh. 
 
 No matter how spai ^ely .settled a 
 district may be, the pc )ple in it are 
 supplied with all the conveniences 
 w'mcIi are to be met with in any part 
 of the old settlements in the East. It 
 is true that at times people emigrat- 
 ing from large centres of population 
 and thickly settled districts miss the 
 social intercour.se they have enjoyed 
 in their old homes, but yet they 
 have here the blessed privilege of 
 cultivating and enjoying to its

 fullest oxt(!iit that sweet homo 
 lii'e which is iiicoinpariiltly hctter tliaii 
 formal Sueial life as it is usually 
 fouu'J. Those who enjoy the society 
 of great minds bsm tiii<l ahuxulance of 
 time during the If^ng winter evenings 
 to hold converse w^itli all the gloi'ious 
 writers and fatheri, In the quiet of 
 their homes, surrounded hy their 
 families, tluy can tinjoy the pleasure 
 of i-eading to its/ fullest extent, or 
 tliey can while dway the time in 
 social parlor gameK ov other forms of 
 amusement. Toi those of a more 
 active natur^ thejwinter season affords 
 ample opportunijSy for winter sports. 
 Curling, hockeyi^ig, skating, toboggan- 
 ing, football, snowshoeing, sleigh- 
 riding and varidus other sports will 
 furnish them wiw» healthful exercise 
 and innocent amuseinent. 
 
 In summer again tTiisIs the student 
 of nature's paradise. Here] the bot- 
 anist, the astronomer and the natura- 
 list will find ample opport^iiities for 
 their favorite studies. 
 
 In myriads o'er the prairie 
 
 Bright flowers bloom strnnifely /air ; 
 There's beauty in the clear blue/Sky, 
 
 There's sweetness in the air ; / 
 And loveliness with lavish haiicl 
 
 Decks dell and dingle uay. ' 
 Strange birds in painted plujliajfe gay 
 
 In hundreds haunt the erpve ; 
 O'er marsh and moor ; the foon and heron 
 
 The coot and plover rovrf. 
 The clear Assiniboine win^ts free 
 
 Through many a fertile Vale ; 
 The antlered deer and ((ro^eful hind 
 
 Bound o'er the wooded dale. 
 
 Though the buffalo no longer roves 
 the plains, liaving disappeared with 
 the red-man on the approach of the 
 whites, Manitoba is still the sports- 
 man's home. Here he can find moose, 
 elk, jumping deer, antelope, bears, 
 wolves, foxes, rabbits and badgers 
 with which to indulge his desire for 
 sport. Fox hunts of the old .style is 
 a favorite pastime in many places. 
 
 The rivers, ponds, lakes and ])rairie 
 abound with an almo.st unlimited 
 quantity of wild fowl, such as ducks, 
 geese, swans, snipci, pigeons, partrid- 
 ges, pheasants and turkeys. 
 
 The angler will find our rivers and 
 lalyes well supplied with sturgeon, 
 pickerol,4»iiss, perch, goldeye and carp. 
 
 The loVers of anmscments and 
 sports are^supplied with a complete 
 change in summer from the sports 
 practiced dnring the winter months. 
 On the amiroach of warm weather 
 the basebjill replaces the football ; 
 the old Enfflish game of cricket makes 
 its appearali^ce once more and the 
 national gaihe of lacrosse revives. 
 Those who enjoy a less vigorous form 
 of exercise find their reC?'cation in a 
 game of tennis or in a .short I'ow upon 
 some river or lakelet, ^hile bicycling 
 and horseback riding are common 
 forms of amusement and recreation 
 for both ladies and gentlemen. 
 
 " These are tliy charms, sweet province ! sports like 
 
 these 
 With sweet succession teach e'en toil ib please." 
 
 Such being the advai^tages offered 
 by this praiiie provihce the emi- 
 grant's song in all lands should be : — 
 
 We cross the prairie as of old ( 
 Jhc pil),'rims crossed the sea>: 
 To make the west, as they the ettst 
 
 ^ 
 
 The homestead of the free ! 
 We're flowing from our native hills 
 
 As our free rivers flow : 
 The blessing of our motherland 
 
 Is on us as we go. 
 We go to plant our common schools 
 
 On distant prairie swells, 
 And give the Sabbaths of the wild 
 
 The music of her bells.

 WE publish with this issue the 
 portrait of our respected Lieut. 
 Governor, HonoiabJe John Christian 
 Schultz, taken in the uniform which 
 the Secretary of State for the Colo- 
 nies prescribes for the Provincial Lieu- 
 tenants of His Excellency the Gover- 
 nor General. 
 
 Although born in Ontario, His 
 Honor is claimed as a Manitoban by 
 the old residents who remember his 
 coining hero in 18G0, while yet a 
 beardless medical student, and his 
 close identification with the interests 
 of the then colony and his urgent ad-

 a 
 his 
 
 ists 
 ad- 
 
 vocacy of the union of all the pro- 
 vinces, and of our union with federa- 
 ted Canada, endeared hini to the 
 settlers and afterwards won for him 
 the Confederation medal. 
 
 The manly course pursued by him 
 in Kiel's first rehellion and the gallant 
 attempt made by the little band of 
 Canadians to defend Dominion Gov- 
 ernment property, and to uphold the 
 British flag after it had been hauled 
 down by the insurgents, resulting 
 finally in the treacherous capture of 
 the little band and the long incarcera- 
 tion in Fort Garry, the escape of Dr. 
 Schultzand thennirder of Scott, form 
 now a lurid page in Canadian history. 
 
 On the restoration by Loivl Wolse- 
 ley of British rule, in Augu.st, 1S70, 
 and the division of the province into 
 electoral divisions, Dr. ISchultz was 
 chosen as Lisgar's representative, 
 which division he continued to repre- 
 sent until his elevation to the Senate 
 in 1882. During this period his in- 
 timate acquaintance with the condi- 
 tion and wants of the new province 
 enabled him to take a prominent part 
 in all discussions relating to the 
 Indians and native settlers, and the 
 Eastern immigrants now fast coining 
 in. Always a Conservative, he alone 
 from Manitoba was sent back after 
 the downfall of the Macdonald 
 government to support that part}' 
 in Parliament, which he continued 
 to do till 1882, when, although 
 nominated to the Senate, he still op- 
 posed in Lisgar Mr. A. W. Ross, who 
 was contesting that county as a pro- 
 fessed Liberal, receiving the support 
 of the Reform party. Failing health 
 in 1882 caused an absence of nearly 
 four years and a half from the pro- 
 vince ; and although ph3'sically unal ile 
 to be as active in the Senate as he 
 had been in the House of Coinmons, 
 he yet was able to do work for this 
 country and the north land which 
 was esteemed of much importance by 
 
 his colleagues and added very much 
 to the knowledge possessed of the 
 more remote Northwest. 
 
 He has always taken a keen inter- 
 est in the development of the province 
 of his adoption, his voice and pen 
 being always used in its interests, and 
 ginioral recognition of his long serv- 
 ices to Manitoba, the Northwest and 
 the Doniirnon, procured his appoint- 
 ment to the highe.st position under 
 the Crown in his native province in 
 1888. 
 
 Lieutenant-Goveraor Schultz, be- 
 fore his governorship, took a most 
 important part in many enterpi'ises 
 tending to the development of the 
 country. He was a projector of 
 some of the earlier Manitoba I'ail- 
 ways, an active mend)er of the early 
 medical and hospital associations, and 
 was one of the fii\st wardens of the 
 first Anglican church built in Winni- 
 peg, (Holy Ti'init}'). He is an exten- 
 sive land-owner throughout the pro- 
 vince, and has contributed to the im- 
 provement of the city by extensive 
 building operations. He had the 
 honor of proposing the prtisent name 
 of the city at an early village meet- 
 ing held to decide that (piestion, and 
 h a life-mendttn* of our Historical 
 Society and a Fellow of the Imperial 
 Institute. His appointment as 
 Lieutenant-Governor, ])rove(l a very 
 popular one. and was endorsed by all 
 classes; and(!overnment House withits 
 gracious hostess became and has con- 
 tinued very popular indeed. Alth(mgh 
 spirituous liquor has, as in the case of 
 the preceding Governor, been banish- 
 ed, 3'et the state and other dinners, 
 balls, nnisicales and gar<len parties 
 have not suffered in interest or enjoy- 
 ment. We hope in a future nundjer 
 to publish the portrait of Mrs. Sehultz, 
 who has done .so nmch to make Gov- 
 ernment House so popular, and whose 
 ready .sympathy with and aid to all 
 works of charity are .so well known.
