When finish. ed it will let Russian wheat and timber go cheaply to the world markets. Also it will let Don basin coal go cheaply to the cities of the upper Volga and the mines of the Ural Mountains, Promise of low cost water transport has proved so alluring that the Soviet stands ready to spent $38,000,000 to make the Volga as useful as the Rhine, Yo Russians the enterprise looms as large as the St, Lawrence Deep Waterway proposals appear to the {uidwest farmer of America.

A physical culture display by recruits of the local po- lice department, men who will be permitted to wear the blue uniform of the law, proved of interest to the 6,000 spectators, and evoked well-merited applause. Line drill, marching and methods of handling prisoners constituted the exhibi- tion, most of which was carried out in a heavy downpour of rain that marred the track proceedings for the remainder of the contests. The tug-of-war brought out pro- bably the keenest competition of the day when Montreal and Toron- to vied for the trophy which has been held by the Queen 'City foree for the past two years, The loeal team, by dint of steady inch-by- inch gaining, captured the first heat; the second went to the On- tarians. The crowd, tense with ex- citement, cheered the Montreal blue-coats as they showed every evidence of clinching the final bat- tle, but the visitors once more over- came their rivals to retain the cup, Baltimore sent a strong continig- ent to Wednesday's field day, and one of the team in particular ap- peared to be a big favorite with the Montreal gallery, D, Foote, whose versatility found him en- tered in everything from the jumps to the weights, showed heautiful work in the high jump event, when he vanquished a large list at the he'sht of 5 feet 6 inches, Mayor Camillien Houde, Mayor J.

Hold Canada as Bad Example for U.S. Chicago, July 20.--The old saloon evils are reappearing In Canada despite liquor control laws, in the opinion of national officers of the Women's Christian Temper- ance Union. This view was express- ed in a bulletin issued by the na- tional office of the Union as the opening barrage of a campaign to prevent Alfred Smith's election as President of the United States. "The saloon record of Govern- or Alfred E. Smith," said the first of the campaign bulletins, "is a fitting prelude to his promise that if he reaches the White House he will lead the way to legalized li- quor. For twenty-five years he has voted and worked for the Tam- many machine, for more saloons. longer hours for the sale of booze and against prohibition. "The W.C.T.U. takes issue with Governor Smith in his statement that liquor can be sold' legally without the return the old saloon. In Canada, where the M- quor men promised the sale of booze without the saloon, liguor laws are growing more liberal and the saloon is coming back fn wari- ous forms in clubs or restaurants, or wine rooms. All the old saloon evils are reappearing in Canada." Fold a towel over the sprain and keep it wet with ice-cold or wery hot water till the inflammation is subdued.

The story of the long search for their sister, Ann Meath, was reveal- ed this week when Judge E. E. Rob- erts awarded to Winifred and Marie Meath, 6132 Frairie avenue, the $6,- 422 estate of their father, a com- parative fortune to them. Yi Girl Disappears In 1880 Patrick Meath and his three daughters lived on a farm near Brickens, Ireland, One Sunday morn- ing that summer Ann, then 17 years old, left the house to attend mass in the local church. She was never seen again by the members of her family. The next year the Meaths left Ireland and settled on a farm near Peru, III, but never gave up search for Ann. Her father included her is his will. After years of correspondence with authorities in Ireland, David Lipman, Chicago attorney, received recently a letter from John Tarpey, 60-year- old Brickens (Ireland) farmer, which cleared up the mystery and led to the settlement of the estate. The let- ter is as follows: "About six years after Pat Meath and family emigrated to America, according to information received, my father, John Tarpey (who was a relative and a very esteemed friend) went to the town of Ball- ina, some forty miles distant and found Ann Meath alies Ann Brad- dock then of the vagrant class, or to be accurate, with a Gypsy com- pany in a caravan and she nearly on the point of death. He recognized her. The recognition was mutual and she made a statement to him which I am not at liberty to disclose and the following day Ann Meath ex- pired, My father again saw her af- ter her death, she was buried in a nameless grave. Pledged to Secrecy "When my father came home he related the sad tidings to his own family, myself included and pledged us to secrecy, and for the prestige of the family, outside our family circle it ever remained a strict sec- et, "There was no foul play. She came to her death of natural causes, She left no issue, "Such are the true facts of Ann Meath's untimely end. You ean make whatever use you think fit of the above statement, and if there is any need, I am prepared to make an affidavit to the above facts, Respectfully yours, John Tarpey "P.S.-It is impossible to trace any records now, with the 1916 rising, the British military occupation, the black and tan regime, and the civil war, all the records are missing." ADMITS POSITION IN BALTIC GRAVE Lithuanian Dictator Says Poland Lacks Courage to Start War Kovno, Lithuania, July 21.--Profes- sor Valdemaras, the premier and dic- tator of Lithuania, in an interview on Tuesday on the relations of his country with Poland said that "the position in the Baltic today is like it was in the Balkans on the eve of the world war." But, continued Prem- ier Valdemaras, "nobody, not even Poland, has the courage to put a spark in the powder shell and as- sume the responsibility for war." Li- thuania, he said, demanded guaran- tees, not promises, from Poland, As guarantees the Kovno Govern- ment wants, first, demilitariation of fifty-kilometer zone between the two 'countries; secondly, cessation of the support of armed bands hostile to Lithuania by Poland; thirdly, an in- demnity of '$10,000,000, This indem- nity, explained M. Valdemaras, was only of a "moral nature" and de- signed to prevent a repition of such events at the seizure of Vilna by Zeligowski. : TEN WEEKS' TRADING IN NORANDA INVOLVED 86 MILLION DOLLARS In ten weeks the money involved in trading in shares of Noranda Mines has totalled $86,000,000 says the Financial Post. The movement which resulted in the sensational rise in these shares to a high of $64.50 started about May Ist, and in the interval the turnover in shares tol- alled 2,155,193 or just about equal to the total shares issued. Noranda has made fortunes for many and nice nest eggs for a great many more. Its advance was sensa- tional because the climb was in dol- lars. In moving from $19 on May 1 to its high of $64 this month the advance amounted to about 350 per cent. On numerous occasions, larger advances than this has taken place in cheap stocks, but the amount in- volved being in cents was mot as spectacular. The most interesting fact about the advance in Noranda and the profits that have accrued to specula- tors as a result, is that very few had any idea in regard the developments which resulted in the advance. It is almost safe to assume that the great bulk of those who profited by the advance tere either holders of the shares before the movement started or else got aboard when they saw [the siock moving.
