August IT says ^editorially, .hcfidïng the < mjait-ter \u201cApologies to Sir Wilfrid.\u2019 \u2018Our report of Sir Wilfrid Laurier\u2019s Simcoe speech was somewhat condensed towards the Close.A part of his Preference to the arbitration treaty ' between Great Britain and the United States was presented in such a way as to appear to relate to the Knox-Fielding agreement.Hence his remark that the arbitration pact will lead to another agreement was so connected with what followed in the renort as to leave the impression that he promised another reciprocity agreement between the United States and Canada.One paragraph of our editorial comment on this perhaps was based on this confusion.We very much regret to have attributed to Sir Wilfrid Laurier a statement he did not make.\u2019 DR

shareholders of King\u2019s Hall, Compton, was held at the Eastern Townships Bank in this city at 3.30 o\u2019clock p.m.The Lord Bishop of Quebec, the Right Rev.Dr.Dunn, presided, and the Rev.Albert Stevens, M.A., of Coaticook, was secretary.The object of the meeting was to consider whether it would be advisable to move the school to a more favorable and central locality.Since Miss Laura Joli took charge of King\u2019s Hall, its prosperity has greatly grown, so much so that there is now always a waiting list of pupils anxious to enter the school, for whom there is no accommodation, and the profits on last year\u2019s working are over $1,500.But against this there is the undoubted fact that the present building, even if it were large enough, is so defective that it has been \u2019 found impossible to keep it sufficiently warm in cold weather to insure the health and comfort of the staff and pupils, and the sum required to be expended to make it comfortable is so large that the Trustees do not feel justified in expending it.They feel particularly that if a large sum of money must be spent on the School, it should be built somewhere else.The corporation, after a careful consideration of the whole matter, decided to increase the capital to $50,000, remove the school from Compton, and erect new buildings in some more central locality, and a committee was appointed to select a suitable site.It is understood that already applications have been received from more than one town where a site is available, and invitations extended to the committee to visit these places and to examine the advantages which they have to offer.FATHER PETITIONS COURTJR CHILD.Claiois That Mother is not Entitled To Keep it.ST.FRANCOIS XAVIER PARTIES SEPARATED ABOUT TWELVE MONTHS AGO.In the

.55 on two-ÿcar-olds; the margins secured on a stationary market were $202 on calves, *2.22 on yearlings and $2.09 on two-year-olds, resulting in a profit of i\u20182 cent, per hundred pounds on calves, 51 cents ,on yearlings, trnd 51 cents on two-year-olds.~ The increase in live weight necessary to make calves prime was 10,5 per cent; yearlings, 54 per rant, and two-year-olds, 13.0 per cent of their initial weighr.M at tbe beginning of the feeding period.9 At a uniform price for feeds the difference in cost, of gains between calves nnd yearlings was $1.35; be.tween yearlings and two-year-olds, 28 cents per bund ted pounds.Some of the Australian churchgoers give liberally.Two years ago the Lydiard Street Methodist Church, Ballarat, established a record in raising the sum of \u2018 £1,059 on one Sunday.That amount has now been exceeded by £600, a recent Sunday\u2019s contributions reaching £1,680\t10s 5d.The minister, the Rev.S.J.H0-ban, announced to the congregation a month ago that he was desirous Of raising £1,-100 this year, and this sum, it will be seen, was exceeded by nearly £300.When the result was announced the congregation rose and sang \u201cPraise God from Whom all Blessings Flow.\u201d The highest contribution for the day was a cheque for £100.\t______________ FWÊÊmê CQCffil&lV This is merely an advance notice in regard to Semi-ready Clothes for men.We expect to receive the early Autumn models of this famous line in the course of a week or so, and would ask the young men of the City of Sherbrooke and surrounding towns to awair, their arrival.The manufacturers write us saying that the Autumn styles will be far and above what has ever been turned out before, and the selection of patterns superior to what has ever been attempUd by ns.Orders have b^en placed for their very best grade, and we feel confident that the dressey fellows will appreciate our eftbrtSi We will advise you through the Record of their arrival, and yon w ill be wise in delaying your clothes buying until an opportunity has been given you to size up the clothes situation in a thoroughly intelligent manner.In the meantime would remind yon that ihe patterns for Specials, together with the Fashion Plates for the Autumn Season is now ready for inspection at the Duncan Stores.You are guaranteed an absolute fit and delivery in five days.Bear in mind that Tbe Duncan Stores are the only authorized depot for Semi-ready Clothes in the City of Sherbrooke.THE McCLMY MNF\u2019G CO.The Sunshine BURNS COAL OR WOOD For the Home.School & Church FIRE POT IS STRAIGHT - \u2022 NOT SLANTING If you examine tbe fire-pot of the Surmhinc you will notice that the aides are straight up and down.On many furnaces the fire-pots slope, forming a rest on which the ashes accumulate.As ashes are non-conductors of heat, they prevent the fire from radiating as much heat ns it should, they clog up the draft and deaden the lire.\ts The Sunshine in the most scientifically nnd perfectly constructed furnace, It radiates most heat with less consumption of fuel.KfSSB.'

The first British commercial invasion of Germany began yesterday with the formal opening in Berlin of an important branch of one of the largest commission house in London \u2014Sanders, Rehders & Co., Limited, of 108 Fenchurch Street, E.C.This branch house which is the first of the kind under English management, to be inaugurated in Germany, has been established for the avowed purpose of recapturing some of the foreign trade especially of the Far East, which ts now placing most of its orders in Germany instead of England, as heretofore.\u201cWe were compelled to take this radical step from motives of self-defence,\u201d explained Mr.H.Sanders, managing directar Of the London house.\u201cThe British commercial world has been in a state of trance for the past, two decades or more, content to dream of past, achieve ments and supremacy, and wholly oblivious to the march of events anil the changing of conditions.Even today the majority of English businessmen are too well satisfied with the antiquated business methods, total lack of system, and luxurious infiffer ence to hard work to qe alive to the very potent and pertinent fact that other nations, Germany in particular are taking our foreign markets away from us by the simple application of more up-to-date business principles.\u201d IN_A JAPANESE SLEEPING CAR.(Railway Age Gazette.)\u201d This night we had our first experience in a Japanese sleeping car.The track is narrow gauge and the stun dard sleeping cars have six seats running lengthwise, each seating two passengers, with a centre aisle.The upper berth is the regular Pullman style and a section will accommodate two passengers.The night was during the extreme heat of midsummer, the cat was crowded ami, in addition to the regular curtains each berth was provided with a mosquito bar, which added to the general discomfort.Passengers were taken on and let down at all stops, so there was a constant procession through the aisle all tdght.Part of the car was reserved for local accommoda lion, and those who sat up smoked incessantly, so that long before morning the atmosphere became intolerable.-4- .j* ;

.am;.:ar insect for a long time The beetle, which is long and slender witn black wing covers and yellow thorax.is called the oberea bipuncta-ta.It bites a girdle around the twig -.z inches or so from the extremity and then it turns around and bites' another girdle at the distance of its own length from the first.Between trie two it makes a little hole and inserts in it an egg; from this there soon hatches out a yellowish maggot which bores down through the .stem and feeds on the pith.The ef- Ifeet of the girdles is to cause an almost immediate wilting of the twig so that the injury is readily observed .The only effective remedy is to cut off the affected twigg two or three -nches fcciow the lower girdle and tr e i to burn them at once so as to prevent the maggotv attaining to maturity and providing for an attack next year.Like many other insects, :t has its pfriodg of abundance.Last year was a very favorable one for it, -ts attacks having been noticed in many w'dely scattered parts of

Aug.23.\u2014Anti-Jewish outbreaks of a violent character bave now occurred for three days in succession in Monmouthshire and are giving the authorities the greatest concern, as they are altogether » new phase in British life.The Jewish community here has made strong representation to the Home Office, and Home Secretary Churchill yesterday gave them the assurance that no precautions should be overlooked to prevent a recurrence of the disorders.The riots and looting of Jewish shops were of a desperate character and the Riot Act had to be read and the military called out before the mobs were cowed.Additional troops were drafted to Abbw Vale from Cardiff yesterday, hut similar scenes to those enacted Monday night, when Jewish shops were wrecked, occurred again last night in Ebbw Vale, Tredegar, Rhymney and Brynmawr.Many Jewish shops, and even private residences, were attacked in these places last night.The presence of the troops prevented looting on such a large scale as Monday night, hut the police and military had to be continually chasing the rioters with their batons and swords.In these charges many persons were injured and large numbers were arrested.The rioters attacked women and drove them shrieking in terror from their houses.The only motive for the outbreaks is alleged to be that the Jews have been guilty of charging high rents to the workmen and raising the price of provisions since the recent strike began.STEAM VERSUS SAIL.1 The splendid passages made nowadays by the ocean \"greyhounds,\u201d leave no opening for the famous old clippers to put forward their claims, but there are many passenger steamers at the present time, known as \"intermediate\u201d boats, which take from nine to fourteen days to cross the Atlantic.With these trips some of those made by the old clippers compare very favorably.I The Red Jacket in 1854 crossed from New York to the mouth of the Mersey in thirteen days.In 1862 the Dreadnought, a full-rigged sailing ship of 1,413 tons, from Bandy Hook to Queenstown, left a record of nine days and seventeen hours that is still spoken of with pride in the forecastle of the present day \"windjammer,\u201d and which will never be forgotten by the sailing ship man.These records hold their own with the average passage of a modern freighter covering the same trip, and, as a matter of fact, are a good deal better than many can boast of at the present time.A good trip from England to i Australia takes thirty-five days, and , this time is only made by the most modern ships of the latest design, specially built and under contract with the British Government to carry j the mails.In 1868 the Thermopylae, j a full-rigged ship, made the passage from London to Melbourne in sixty I days on her maiden voyage, which is ; not at all behind the same trip made to-day by ordinary tramp steamers.The Patriarch, another full-rigged ship, belonging to the famous old Aberdeen line, which firm likewise owned the Thermopylae, made the passage from the metropolis of the world to Sidney in sixty-eight days.The City of Benares, of which the writer was third officer in 1899, voyaged from New7 York to Freemantle, Western Australia, in the record time of seventy-seven days, and on her arrival into port found the remains of her sister ship, the city of York, which had left New York eight days ahead of her, piled up on the rocks, and the first news that greeted the captain of the City of Benares when he was priding himself on his wonderful passage, was that the coast guardsmen were then dragging for the body of his only son, who was the second mate of the ill-fated ship, and who had been drowned, with twenty-two more, when she struck the reef.\u2014Chandos St.John-Brendon, in The Canadian Magazine.HEARING NEW YORK.Is Now 1065 Miles From His Starting Point.EXPECTS TO REACH HIS DESTINATION EARLY ON THURSDAY.Fort Plain, N.Y., Aug.23\u2014Another remarkable spin through the air on his aeroplane flight from St.Louis to New York brought Harry N.Atwood, the aviator, from Belle Isle, five miles west of Syracuse, to Fort Plain, late yesterday afternoon, and landed him 95 miles nearer his destination.He is now 1,065 miles from his starting place and exactly 200 miles from his proposed alighting point in New York, From Belle Isle, where he ascended at 4.55 p.m., Atwood sailed around Syracuse\t12 minutes\tlater, turned eastward,\tand, in\tthe\ttwilight,\tde- scended into the Mohawk Valley, alighting in a field here at 7.05 p.m.His actual flying time yesterday was two hours and 10 minutes and was made without a stop.\"The air was as dead calm - as a pool,\" said Atwood.\"Most of the tlrpi- I kept my hands in my pockets or read a time table.\u201d Atwood\tbelieves\the\tpossibly\tmay make New York to-day, but more probably on Thursday, because on account of the rough and wooded country from Albany down the Hudson river he may be compelled to descend in difficult places or effect landingsfin the water.He lacks just 99 miles to beat the international record now held in Europe.\tRunning over\tthe last lap of his flight down the Hudson he will surpass the present record at Rhinecliff.From here Atwood has 58 miles to go to Albany, which he is capable of making in one flight.The 142 miles from Albany to New York will require at least one stop to replenish 1,1h gasoline tanks.If he attempts to do the 200 miles to New York it will not, be more than he already has ae- j complisfied, for in the first day of his flight he went the 286 miles from Ht.I Louis to Chicago in one day.But i Atwood is desirous of flying over New York city and finishing within full view of the public and with ample time before dark.THIS DATE IN HISTORY \u2014 AUGUST 23.ITS!\u2014State of

disfigured or injured by the tussock moth they afford an instructive intimation of what would have occurred if the city had pursued p.policy of neglect.That the injured trees are comparatively few is due to the energetic campaign of Park I Superintendent Wilson and his staff.I During the summer while the moths were in the larval stage and carrying on their work of destruction a force of some thirty-live men was engaged spraying the trees.This is the stage during which the insects devour the leaves, and consequently can be destroyed by poison.Some spin their cocoons early and retire into the short sleep of the pupa stage, hut it is largely a waste of effort to remove them while others are feeding.Those later in developing would necessitate a second visit to the trees.After all the larvae which have escaped the poison sprays retire to sleep the time is ripe for'destroying the pupae in their woolly cocoons.In this process many insect parasites which hold the tussock moth in check may be destroyed, and some contend that to save these it is better to wait until a later stage and destroy only the egg masses.Mr.Paul Hahn, who has done much to arouse public opinion and promote the liberal policy of the City Council which has made the Park Superintendent\u2019s campaign possible, is inclined to favor continuous warfare.After a few weeks in the pupa stage the perfectly developed insects come forth.The females, being wingless, remain on the outside of then woolly cocoons.Only the males have wings.Each female completes her life history by laying some two hundred eggs and covering them with a white coating which makes them conspicuous on trees, fences and walls._ The destruction of these egg masses is an urgent necessity in combattmg this pest.Every one overlooked means some two hundred greedy caterpillars to devour next year\u2019s foliage.Owners of shade trees should co-operate with the civic employees in their efforts to rid the city of these pests or hold them effectually in check.\"THE BEAUTY SPOT.\u201d No musical play produced for many seasons past has been so widely talked about and no music has been more widely sung than the delightful melodies of \"The Beauty Spot,\u201d which is booked for early appearance in this city, September 9th.Mr.Frank Deshon will be seen in the leading role and he has been provided with some exceptionally clever songs, \"She Sells Sea Shells,\u201d \"I\u2019m Going Crazy,\u201d \"Foolish Questions, and others, all of ¦which are said to give him abundant opportunities for that class of comedy of which he is famous.Among the special features will be the two famous sensational dances, \"The Gobble Glide\u201d and \"The Boulevard Glide,\u201d that have set New York crazy the last few months.The music, by Reginald deKoven, is said to show not only his skill ,and technique, but his fruitfulness in melodious invention, and Joseph Herbert has provided a book which is said to be very funny.COST OF CROPS.The government experiment station in Nebraska has been gathering information concerning the cost of producing various crops.An average of the report for two years shows that it costs 29.fi cents per bushel to produce corn; 51.49 cents per bushel to produce wheat, 32.5 cents per bushel to produce oats; $5.37 per ton to produce wild hay; SI.IS per ton to produce clover; $3.10 per ton to pzoatce alfalfa.The figures used were obtained from the best farmers of each community and the yields during the,; period covered were considerably higher than the average.The cost of production thus estimated does not include marketing and includes time for man and team at current wages in the field.The two greatest factors influencing the cost per bushel or per ton of growing crops are the price of laud and the yield per acre.At the average market price the most pro-fitfible crops are considered wheat, corn and alfalfa.The cost of applying barnyard manure was not included, although many of the farmers did use this fertilizer, literally increasing their yield and lessening the cost of production.THE SILKWORM\u2019S TASK.If all the natural silk in the world (estimated at 110,000,000 lbs.) were extended in one single thread such as is woven by the looms, it would make a line that would go over 1,-j 250,000 times round the earth at the j equator, or 344 times the distance between the earth and the sun.The speed of light is 186,000 miles a second.But even at this enormous velocity, a ray of light would take about two days to travel a distance equal to the length of this thread.The W'ork of the silkworm will be dimly appreciated when it is taken into account that about six filaments as spun by the worm in its cocoon go to form a single thread such as is spun into fabric by the loom.)\tI I Sayer Electric | Co For Fixtures, Electric Bells, Batteries, Wire, Cleats, Knobs, Tubes, Rosettes, Sockets, Cord, Switches, Assorted Lamps, Motors, Dynamos, and all Electrical Supplies.The
