[" Sherbrooke Daily Record.Established 1897 SHERBROOKE, QUE.SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 1,1913.ONE GENT IKE GOOD ROADS CONGRESS AT Proposed Meeting Has Aroused Much Interest in Every Part of the District, and Many Municipalities Will Be Represented.\u201cPathways\u201d of \u201cGarden of Province\u201d Should be in Keeping With Surroundings.Promoters of the Quebec-Richmond-Sherbrooke-Montreal Highway are Making an Active Campaign for the Good Roads Educational Movement.Good Roads Organization May be Formed.Richmond, February 1.\u2014(Special)\u2014 Throughout the length and breadth of the Province of Quebec and especially in the Eastern Townshipa, the cry for improved highways is being heard.In the western part of the district a big delegation waited on Premier Gouin and his Cabinet a few days ago; now the time is at hand for the Permanent Highways Congress which is to be held at Richmond on February 6th.Here and there isolated efforts have been made to improve the roads, mostly of a local character; the day when a comprehensive and systematic way of securing this great boon to the people is brought measurably nearer as each one of these big meetings is being held.They are educational centres, so to speak.The Richmond meeting has aroused great interest in every part of the district; many of the municipalities along the projected \u201cSouthern Quebec Highway\u201d will be represented at the meeting.If the Townships are to deserve their appellation of \u201cThe Garden of the Province,\u201d it is high time that the \u201cgarden pathways\u201d should be put in keeping with their surroundings.Good roads is a prosaic subject; it takes time to arouse public opinion; but if the Eastern Townships people can once realize their value in money, the movement will have taken a great stride in ad vance.The Government of the Province has hung up a ten million dollar \u201ccapital prize\u201d for the improvement of the people\u2019s highways.It would appear that the progressive municipalities of the Province are out for their share of the prize; but the Government cannot be expected to \u201cdo it all\u201d: the municipalities must come in by their good will first, and next by i a sense of their responsibilities.Fine towns and poor approaches; good schools and hard to get at; beautiful churches and impossible routes; markets at your door and indifferent highways.All this seems incompatible, and is so in reality.The truth is, vre have gone ahead too fast for our highways.Realizing all this, the promoters of the Quebec-Richmond-Sherbrooke-Montreal Highway have made an active campaign for :\u2014 1\u2014The Good Roads educational movement.2^-Thc importance of a great permanent highway connecting the three principal cities of the Province and a

INDORSED AT A MEETING OF FIVE NEW ENGLAND GOVERNORS.Montpelier, Vt., Feb.1.\u2014 The House yesterday killed the bill providing for the interchange of mileage hooks on the Vermont railroads.The hill was urged on the ground that it was indorsed unanimously by the conference at Boston last Saturday of five New England governors.The majority against the bill was large.Governor Fletcher signed yesterday the bill for a $10,000 retirement fund for public school teachers, and the bill raising the State tax on parlor, sleeping and dining cars from 7-10 of 1 per cent to 1} per cent.This tax is figured on the total mileage, within and without the State, of the different railroads.OF Rumored That Earl Beauchamp will be Appointed IS ONE OF THE VERY FEW LIBERAL PEERS IN GREAT BRITAIN TO-DAY.New York, Feb.1.\u2014A Londop cable to the Herald says : \u201cIt is rumored that Earl Beauchamp, one of the few Liberal peers, will succeed the Duke of Connaught as Governor-General of Canada.\u201d William Lygan, seventh Earl Bean-champ, wns horn on Fob.20,\t1872, and succeeded his father in 1891.He married in 1902 Lady Lettlce Gros-venor, daughter of the late Earl Grosvenor, and sister of the second Duke of Westminster.He has two sons and four daughters.He was Mayor of Worcester in 1895 and Governor of New South Wales from 189\u2018.> to 1900.He was Lord Steward of the Household of King Edward.One Hour Before End Farmers\u2019 Bank indictments Were Squashed THE BANK OF WHICH HE WAS PRESIDENT WAS LAST OF HIS MANY PROMOTIONS.Toronto, Feb.1.\u2014At 3,.30 yesterday afternoon Dr.Beattie Nesbitt succumbed to a six months\u2019 illness.He died at his home, 71 Grosvenor street, with Dr.Graham Chambers and Dr.Walter McKeown, Mrs.Nesbitt and her daughter at the bedside.Dr.Nesbitt was 46 years old.His death had been expected daily for the past week, owing to the malevolence of the heart disease and Bright\u2019s disease which wasted the one time genial doctor to a shadow of himself.At noon yesterday he became unconscious, and at 3.30 he passed quietly away.The city of Toronto has had her due share of meteoric careers, but it is very doubtful whether the last quarter of a century can show a stranger combination than Dr.Wm.Beattie Nesbitt, sometime member of the Provincial Legislature, candidate for local mayoralty honors, and president of the defunct Farmers' Bank.INDICTMENT QUASHED.An hour before Dr.Nesbitt died yesterday afternoon, Judge Middle-ton quashed the five indictments on which he was to have been tried, His Lordship deciding that the charge of making fraudulent returns to the Government as president of the Farmers\u2019 Bank, upon which Dr.Nesbitt was extradited, were not cited in the Criminal Code.\u201cAt that time I did not know that my client was in a dying condition,\u201d said Mr.Dewart, his counsel, last evening.\u201cI telephoned Mrs.Nesbitt and told her that the indictments had been quashed.Dr.Nesbitt was informed, and seemed to understand.He gave evidence of much satisfaction that he was not to pass away with a criminal charge hanging over him.\u201cIt seems strange that we were racing against time without knowing it,\u201d concluded the lawyer.- BORDEN AGAIN MAKES DENIAL FIRE ON FRANKLIN COUNTY POOR FARM Sheldon, Vt., Fch.1.\u2014(Special) \u2014 Fire destroyed four buildings on the Sheldon poor farm, the loss ranging between $15,000 and $20,000.There is about $7,000 insurance on the huildingBll.,'rhe inmates numbering 44 DTD NOT ENTER INTO COMPACT WITH UNIONISTS ON QUESTION.London, Feb.1.\u2014Newspapers to-day publish a.letter from Lord Strath-cona enclosing a copy of a letter from Premier Borden reiterating the assertion that he entered into an arrangement with the leaders of the Unionist party over food taxes to be \u201cmost absolutely and unqualifiedly FÂINÏ HOPE OF PEACE Allies, However, Are iPreparing to Resume Hostilities PEACE DELEGATES TO CONFERENCE ARE ABOUT TO LEAVE LONDON.London, Feb.1.\u2014The Balkan allies are making active preparations to resume hostilities in South-eastern Europe.The delegates of the allies to the peace conference here are saying farewell and packing their baggage, preparatory to departing from London.A news agency despatch received here yesterday from Constantinople reported that the Turkish delegates had been ordered home, but the command has not yet been received here.It seems that only the good offices of the Powers can avert a further resort to arms, but thus far these have apparently failed.Dr.Daneff, head of the Bulgarian delegation, said yesterday that the feeling of the Balkan populations must be considered.Excitement among them, he declared, had reached the highest degree against their \u201cfraudulent treatment\u201d by a handful of Young Turk conspirators, who had attempted to play with the decision of Europe and the honor, prestige and lives of the Balkan peoples.FAINT HOPE OF PEACE.London, E'eb.I.\u2014The London morning papers appear hopeful that some means still will be found to avert a resumption of the war.The Times publishes a despatch from Sofia, which declares that the Turkish concessions have made a much more favorable impression there than on the Bulgarian delegates in London, and thinks this favorable impression may be strengthened when it is found that it is generally shared in Europe.The Times, therefore, considers there is still a faint hope that peace will be preserved.It says that should the Y'oung Turk decide to go a step further to meet the allies, it is likely enough that the allies would respond.In any event, says the Times, it is hoped if the fighting is resumed that it will be confined practically to a bombardment of Adrianople, and that the fall of the city will bring about the conclusion of peace.The paper adds that it is believed Germany strongly disapproves any monetary help being given either side.IK ForemostTask of Liberalism Says Lloyd-George GOVERNMENT WILL SOON GRAPPLE WITH GREAT SOCIAL REFORM.London, Feb.1.\u2014\"The foremost task of Liberalism in the near future is the regeneration of rural life\u2014the emancipation of the land of this country from the paralyzing grip of a rusty, cffei.e and unprofitable system .\u2019 \u2019 David Lloyd George, Chancellor of the Exchequer, made this momentous declaration last night at the annual meeting of the National Liberal Club.The land question has been Mr.Lloyd George\u2019s hobby, and the Conservatives have accused him of being ambitious to introduce the Henry George system of taxation in Great Britain.Recently they had been asserting that the Cabinet had sidetracked his scheme, hut last night\u2019s speech by the Chancellor of the Exchequer indicates that the Government will soon grapple with perhaps the greatest attempt in its extensive programme of social reforms.E.J.PLEADSJT GUILTY He and Head of New Haven Road Appear In Court A.W.SMITHERS, CHAIRMAN OF G.T.R.DIRECTORS, IS ALSO JOINTLY INDICTED.New York, Feb.1.\u2014Charles S.Mel-len and E.J.Chamberlain entered pleas of not guilty in the Federal District Court yesterday afternoon to indictments charging them with violating the criminal cause of the Sherman anti-trust law in connection with an agreement between the New Haven and Grand Trunk.They were given until February 10 to change or withdraw their pleas.As each was under $10,000 hail, to which they were admitted under previous indictments for the same alleged offence, this bail was allowed to stand.No date was set for the trial.Both of the defendants were in court.Alfred W.Smithers, of London, chairman of the Grand Trunk directors, jointly indicted, was not in irt ' SAW COMIEi\u2019S MÜAL Ml Dr.J.O.Ledoux Emphasize its Importance INSPECTION OF MEAT AT THE MARKET jAN IMPORTANT FEATURE.In retiring from the chairmanship of the Sanitary Committee, where he has done good service for the past few years, Dr.J.0.Ledoux has urged upon the incoming Council the importance of continuing the work of this department which in his estimation is second to none in the city.Since he assumed the chairmanship of the Committee he has been instrumental in establishing the system for the inspection of meat, milk and alimentary products.Before 1909 the city had no system of inspection and the consequence was that diseased meats were offered on the market with impunity and na steps were taken to prevent this deplorable state of affairs.Referring to this matter today, Dr.Ledoux said :- \u201cOur capable inspector, Dr.Tracy, whom it gives me great pleasure to publicly thank for his good services, has not as yet at his disposal all the necessary means to enable him to make a more thorough and detailed examination of the meat offered for sale on our market, my successor in office, I hope, will see to it that the organization of the department along this line is completed.It is absolutely indispensable for the protection of oui- dearest interests\u2014the health of our fami-' lies.It gives me great pleasure to offer my sincere thanks to the heads of the different departments with whom I have come in contact during the past five years.I wish to make particular mention of the great services rendered the city by the faithful work of Chief Davidson, as chief health officer of the city.I have but one wish in leaving office and that is that the Department of Public Health shall be well administered ; in the persons of Ch cf Davidson and In specter Tracy we have the proper officials.It remains with the members and chairman of the committee who have charge to use the influence of\u2019 their position for the advancement of this important department of the city\u2019s affairs,, and I am sure that the prosperous city of Sherbrooke, already recognized as a model from a sanitary standpoint, will in the.future maintain its present good reputation.\u201d DR.TRACY'S ANNUAL REPORT.In his report for the past year Dr Tracy states that 4.555 lbs.of meat was incinerated in the incinerator on Lansdowne Market\u20142,395 lbs.of this amount was destroyed because it was affected with tuberculosis and was taken almost entirely from the private abattoirs of the butchers.It is very seldom that any tubercular meat is exposed for sale on the open market because the Inspector lias for four years carefully examined all the meat brought in every Saturday and the practice of exposing the unhealthy meat for sale is almost obsolete.When a butcher kills a diseased animal he invariably reports it to the Inspector who gives him a certificate of the nature of the disease and of seizure, thereby enabling him to u»ike a satisfactory settlement with the man from whom he purchased the animal, and the carcass goes to the incinerator.Owing to the extremely hot weather last June and to the unprotected condition of the stalls nearly a ton of otherwise good meat was spoiled after being exposed for sale.Only three complaints of diseased meat were made by the public last year, and all were satisfactorily settled.The quantity of meat offered nowadays on the Lansdowne Market is three times as great as when Dr.Tracy took it over four years ago.This is accounted for by the increase in population, the confidence felt by the public iu the weekly inspection,-and the fact that a large number of purchasers are from outside towns.The average weight of meat each Saturday in October last on the market was nearly 16 tons.Referring to Butchers\u2019 Shops the Inspector states that the recommendations made by him last May have been adopted in most cases.There are, however, a few butchers who do not keep their shops in a sufficiently clean and sanitary condition and unless a speedy change is made, vigorous measures will be resorted to.The report mentions the imperative need of a municipal abattoir where all the meat required for the city can be killed, cooled and bandied in a proper manner under proper supervision.Some of the private abat-tors are maintained and conducted in a satisfactory manner, but others will soon have to be closed.One chief objection to the private abattoir is that an unprincipled man will in the privacy afforded from municipal inspection, work up into sausage and lard diseased and immature meat that he would not otherwise expose for sale.Dealing with the subject of dairies, there is considerable cause for congratulation.The.Tuberculin test, which was applied last year, and resulted in a number of diseased milch cows being got rid of, was also undertaken this year and a gratifying improvement is shown ; last year the percentage of diseased cattle among those tested was 12j, while this year it is only about Ij, which conclusively shows that the eradication of the diseased cattle has had the effect of considerably lessening the spread of the disease among those remaining.A marked improvement is noticeable in i he sanitary condition of the dairies\u2014they are better lighted and ventilated and more than one-half now contain inilkrooms for storage and washing purposes, which largely eliminates the human contact with milk.m BOYS LOST ÏHE1R LIVES Fell Distance of 75 Feet lata Asbestos Pit at Thetford Mines WERE FOOLING AND WRESTLING WHEN FENCE AROUND MINE GAVE WAY AND THEY FELL TO THE BOTTOM,.Thetford Mines, Feb.1.\u2014(Special) \u2014Two fatal accidents occurred at -the Jacobs Asbestos Mine yesterday, in which two young lads, A.Bedard, aged 14 years, and J.Trepannier, aged 17 years, lost their lives.The two lads were engaged at the mine to give the signal for hoisting boxes from the pit.They occupied a small shanty ut the edge of the pit where the bell button is.It appears that they started fooling and wrestling outside the shanty and by so doing fell against the fence at the edge of the pit which gave way.They fell a distance of about 75 feet to the bottom of the pit.When picked up both were alive but one died on the way to the hospital, while the other lingered till this morning.IL HALL Interesting Speeches Were Made at Opening Of New Methodist .Building TOTAL COST OF THE BUIfiDING, WAS $14,599.54, AND OVER $13,000 WAS CONTRIBUTED.The dedication ceremony in connection with the opening of the new Sunday School Hall of the Sherbrooke Methodist Church was held last night.It was preceded by a dainty and well prepared supper in the old schoolroom in the basement of the Church, to which about 408 sat down, including the scholars, parents, members or the church and congregation and friends.The gathering afterwards adjourned to the new

C.Gordon.MR.CATE\u2019S ADDRESS OF WELCOME.The chairman called upon Mr.Cate to deliver the address of welcome.Mr.Cate said : I can assure you that it gives me very great pleasure to-night to have the honor conferred upon me to extend a few words of welcome.I suppose that I was asked to offer this message perhaps because I am a member of the board and have been for many years, and so could speak somewhat as representing the Official Board of the Church, and also for the even greater reason as a representative of the Sunday School as the Associate Superintendent.I therefore offer to you all to-night a most cordial welcome to the new building, not only to the members of our own congregation but to those of sister congregations that are present.I think we are fortunate in Sherbrooke in having such a strong spirit of unity and fellowship between the different congregations, and so, to-night, as we are opening this new Sunday School we most cordially welcome those who represent our sister congregations.To those of our own congregation I extend the welcome more heartily, because I am welcoming you to your own home.Most of you have had a part in the erection of this home, and for that reason it means more to you and that you come with a greater interest and with a stronger feeling of enthusiasm and devotion to the cause for which this building stands.You have contributed and.you are goin\" to continue to contribute, towards the cost of this building, and therefore your personal interest in it is very strong.And then, I welcome you more than that for what the building stands for, because I believe if we have come here simply to see the building, if we have put into it a certain portion of our means and It means nothing more than that, it would be hardly (Continued

making is on a large scale.There j are steam saws for cutting the wood 1 and the back of the little home is quite an engineering shop.Mrs.Eaton is not unnaturally convinced that the simple trap is best.\u201d1 do not believe in these new-fangled affairs\u201d she said.\u201cThe old-fashioned ones are good enough for me.\u201d Mouse trans from Homerton are sent to all parts 0f the country and also t0 the Continent, and Mrs.Eaton\u2019s customers are largely tbe owners of large warehouses\u2014 London Mail.-4- DEEP-SEA HABITS.A migration of a most unusual kind among deep-sea fishes has been disclosed during the last two cruises of the Prince of Monaco\u2019s Hirondelle.By the aid of the deep sea towing dredge invented by M.Bouree, with which a very large number of observations were made at night, it was found that a number of animals, and notably tbe deep-sea fish, which normally dwell at depths approaching a mile, come up to within a short distance 0f the surface at night.Thus these extraordinary creatures are subjected within the space of a few hours to changes of pressure amounting to thousands of pounds to the square inch, and at the same time the temperature of the water through which they rise varies through 11 degrees Centigrade or more.This last obser-yation disposes of the theory that that the deep sea animals of ravenous species dwefl in zones of nearly constant temperature.The animals which behave in this extraordinary fashion and are subject to this nightly vertical migration seem to belong more particularly to those species which are furnished with luminour organs.We know from recent researches that certain rays of the.sun are able to nemtrat.c to depths'close to iouo yards, beyond which blackness reigns except for the lights of the luminous fishes, and other organisms.It seems possible that when night comes the animals of the lower deaths rise to water which is- now dark, but which is alwavs populous, in order to at tract their prey by the phosphoros-ernee they emit.It.is by something of the same sort that fishermen spear fish at night.\u2014London Morning Post.1 ' -\u2014\u2014 WARRANTS FOR INVENTORS.Head of the Family (writing to the inventor, After wrestling with \u201cThe Rest Puzzle of the Century\u201d!\u2014 The leaflet accompanying your unhealthy invention states that, a patent has been abblieJ for.You have the present state of the law to thank that \u201e warrant has not also hern api lied for.budget ot News From Various Suctions of Country.KENNEBEC ROAD.A couple more loads of cant dogs have come to he repaired, and several more boats have been hauled to the upper tributaries of the Du Loup to be in readiness for the spring drive when it comes.When that may be, and what may be its nature, are problems which many of tbs lumbermen would like to solve.They feel that there is very little snow to furnish water in the spring and the little which is falling is melting and running away with the frequent.thaws, we are having.Moreover there are large quantities of ice in the rivers and piled up along the hanks in many places, that they fear jams which may cause floods to carry their lumber out on the flats, or if they wait \u2018till the floods subside, they may be met with a scarcity of water which may cause their logs to become stranded.A hurried visit has been paid to the \u201cRoad\u201d by Mr.George Cathcart of Bury, and Mr.Bell, of Hherbrooke.Some one\u2019s curiosity was so much aroused that he remarked, \u201cI won-'dcr if they have any intention of laying out a city here.\u201d Mr.Cathcart brought his nephew with him'on a visit to Bury.Mr.Ernest Cathcart is home from Montreal on a short visit to his par-' ents in St.George and to other friends.He is at present visiting friends in Marlow before returning at tbe end of the week to Montreal.Mr.Albert Wilson was confined last, week to the house by an attack of the grippe.He is now better and able to return to his work.Mrs.Mary Cathcart of St.Geofge does not seem to be improving but rather getting weaker.INVERNESS WEST.Arrivals and departures Include : \u2014 Mrs.Jos.Meehan to Quebec on Saturday accompanied by her two brothers, the Messrs.I), and E.Samson to visit friends there before they leave for their future home in Thra-sho, Alta ;
