RGN A When Mr. Pugsley was last a candidate for the House of Com- mons he ran as an Independent. This was in 1896, when the fortunes of the Conservatives were doubtful. He had heen a candidate for the Conservative party in King's a few months befere, and had held meet- ings all over the county in support of the Tupper administration and | its policy. Just before the dissolu | tion of the House he withdrew his | { | letter that he was in full accord with | f | candidature, stating in his published the leaders and the policy of the | Conservative party, and was retir- {ing because he thought the party would have more success in King's if their party were a prohibitionist.

Many "long bow" stories may be cited in the literature of the world, and by far the greater part of them had their origin in the remote past. Vergll, in the "Xmneld," tells of four archers who were shooting for a prize, the mark being a pigeon tied by a cord to the mast of a ship. The first man hit the mast, the second cut the cord, and the third shot the pigeon as it flew away. The fourth archer, having nothing left at which to shoot, drew his bow and sent his arrow fiying toward the sky with such speed that the friction of the air set the feathers on fire, and it swept on Mke a meteor to disappear in the clouds. That is a Bow and arrow story that tests the strongest powers of credulity. The stories of Robin Hood's archery, illustrated by his wonderful perform- ance as Loeksley in Scott's "Ivanhoe," are also a decided strain on one's power of belief. The famous legend of Willlam Tell is belleved by some to have a founda- tion in fact. There was a Dane named Foke of whom the same story was told, and William of Cloudesley, an Englishman, is said to have shot an apple from his son's head merely to show his skill. The majority of bow and arrow stortes rel®e to the accurate aim of the archers, but a Frenchman, Blaise de Vigenere, tells one in which the man point is. the Sremendons force bir ow 15 strong and long enough. According to his own account of the matter, he saw Barbarossa, a Turk, admiral of a ship called the Grand Solyman, send an arrow from his bow clean through a cannon ball. Whether the cannon ball had a hole in it or not he neglects to inform wus. Perhaps the most astounding of all stories about arrow shooting is that of the Indians who used to Inhabit | trom Ottawa, on brings a strange story ot a woman roaming wild in the forests in that district. : Professor Macauley says that while hunting in the woods a rush nd scurry in the undergrowth -aused him to quickly turn, and to his surprise the face of a woman, ia. ned todark brown by exposure and framed by masses of coarse hair, peered at him from the shad- wurned and fled. a A DIED dows.
