neople in their habit of discharging sewage into the rivers from which they drink The real object to be utalned is to prevent rivers from becoming offensive, since no method bad been discovered for reducing sewage to such a point of purification that it may be drunk.The plants which are being erected at enormous tost to filter water and the sewage farms which are being built are merely postponing the time when we c Beehive Wool-all colors, skein.\t\t\tI () and SI.20 pound.\t$1.00, knitting pins and Crochet Hooks in wood her and steel, assor'c and lengths.\t1, rub-d Fires ftl.ll'I\u2019KR SoiJOR \u2014 A full rango of sizes t/iken into stock to-day.Tvo qualities.Ladies .2be.acd 35c:.Men's .45c.Chilclsen's lit.23c., 25c., 3fic.pin; cushion forms\u2014 in square or oblong1 shapes, extra well stuffed, prices from 15c.to 35c., according: to size.CUSHION FORMS\u2014 in three different rf strong, Warm, wear resisting hi ds, in black, white and scarlet \u2014 iri ?i*ll sizes for Children.Misse and Radies.Prices range from 25c.to 70c.TODAY'S 13 X PR 10 HR\u2014 brings us anot her lot of those Dainty Side Jabots which are having such a big run now'.F.xrra values\u201425c,, 35«.,70c.and 65 c.'Phone and Mail Orders Appreciated.; HIS MAJESTY\u2019S l \u2022\tTHIS WEEK !

the Fair and its management at its present size, as well as the handling of the very considerable expenditure, calls for considerable more work by your Directors, staff and officials.\u2019 Twenty years ago ^ the totai receipts were only about $10,-000.In the coming year the receipts will probably be four times that sum.It will be\u2019 noticed, however, that the expense of the office staff has not increased proportionately, thus a considerable portion of the extra work has fallen upon the Directors.This is in part shown by the steady increase of meetings from year to year, which last year reached the totai of 4e.but this does not by any means cover the time given to the affairs of the Association by the members of your Board, all of whom are active business men.Under these circumstances your Directors feel that some rearrangement of the management of this Association should be arrived at.They feel that the-work thrown upon the committees is more than should be expected from an unpaid Board of Directors, and that the direction o! the general affairs of the Association would be more advantageously controlled and managed by a committee who would have more of the powers of a Board of Control; the committees as at present constituted to do only such work as is especially asked of them, and more particularly during the time of the Exhibition itself.A.= Directors, however, only it seems hardly fair to expect some or any of them to do the work which in other departments ia done by paid superintendents.This new committee to report directly to the Board of Directors from time to time as may be required.As regards the management of the Office, your Board feel the need of someone who would be able to be constantly in the office as a cashier or assistant, who would have the genera! charge of the books and accounts under the direction of the Secretary, so as to permit the Secretary to carry out the instructions of the new committee, to visit former exhibitors, look up new ones, and to absent him- , self from Sherbrooke when found necessary in the Interests of the Association.This is the second year that a prize Im been given to (hr different counties in the Province of Quebec win ning the most prizes.Sherbrooke of course being excluded.This year the county prize went to Compton, but at the same time it mav be mentioned that several of the other counties were very close.The Directors feel that the Association has lost a faithlul employ*», in the death of Mr.John Price, wjio was for many years Superintendent of the Giounds.On Wednesday of Fair week the Exhibition was visited by the Hon.E.Caron, Provincial Minister of Agriculture, and Hon.P.S.G.Mackenzie.Provincial Treasurer, also a delegation from the Eastern Canadian Passenger Association, which held their regular meeting in the City of Sherbrooke on the same day and were entertained at lunch by the Association.The visit of these railway men cannot but have a good effect on the future of the Exhibition.The Provincial Ministers and other distinguished visitors, as well as the passenger agents, attended a banquet in the evening, which proved a great success.The lunch to the exhibitors was also largely attended.The Holstein Friesian Association also held their annual meeting during the Fair, and the members of that Association held their annual dinner in the Directors' dining room on Thursday evening.During the past year the Hon.Dr.Pelletier, who has been a very valued member of the Board for eleven years, was appointed Agent-General of the Province, in London.This necessitated his retirement from this Board.His departure has caused unfeigned regret to all of us.To fill the vacancy so caused, Mr.C.E.Therrien, M.L.A., waappointed a Director.The thanks of the Association are due to the Quebec Government, the City of Sherbrooke, Sherbrooke Agricultural Society, E.T.Bank, Bank of Montreal, Merchants Bank, Hoche-laga Bank, Quebec Bank.Sherbrooke Railway & Power Company, Dominion Shorthorn Breeders Assn., Holstein Friesian Association, Clydesdale Horse Society of Great Britain and Ireland, Hackney Horse Society of Canada.Henry Birks & Sons, Montreal; Ogilvie Flour Mills Co., Montreal; Lake of the Woods Milling Co., Montreal: Grimm Manufacturing Co., Montreal; Canadian Fairbanks Co., J.H.M.Parker, Lennoxville, the proprietors of the hotels of Sherbrooke, and many others, for grants and special prizes and interest shown in our behalf, as well as to the Directors of the Local Agricultural Society for their kind ami generous assistance during the week.The whole respectfully submitted.WM.MORRIS, President.H.E.CHANNELL, Sec.-Treas.TALE Of SHIPWRECK Story of Passing of Sieamer Nautilus that Turned Turtle One of She strangest maritime accidents in the annals of English shipping came to light with the return r-i the captain and nine survivors of tl -coasting steamer Eastern Couutioc, trading between Yarmouth and l!/,!.which turned turtle off the mouth of the Humber, resulting
