THIEVES IN CHURCH Burglars Thursday night forced an entry to the vestry of St. Francis Xavier Roman Catholic church in Brockville, but disturbed little beyond carrying off a flé8hlight. The previ- ous night St. Mark's Roman Catholic church, Prescott, was broken into and all the money boxes, each containing a considerable sum, were stolen. The thieves in this case were unable to force the lock protecting the gold chalice, being frightened away be- fore the completion of their work. REV. C. P. SMITH APPOINTED Rev.

DRIVER EXONERATED "I find that the accident in which Wilfred Regimbal of Pembroke, suf- fered injuries which resulted in his death, was due to no criminal negli- 40 gence on the part of the driver, and dismiss the case," was the summing- up of the verdict of Magistrate J. C. Stewart yesterday afternoon, when the preliminary hearing of the case of manslaughter was heard against John A. Willoughby of Smith's Falls. Evidence was heard from several wit- nesses, that, had there been a proper tail light on the van, the accident might have been averted. The in- uest was held last evening, and the nding of the jury was that the death was due to an excessive rate of speed. The car collided with a_van of Sparks' Circus, driven by John Wright, the resulting injuries to Wil- fred A. Regimbal causing his death. Magistrate Stewart and W. H. Wil- liams, K.C,, who was acting for the accused, were emphatic in denouncing the reflector. which was used on the circus van in the place of a tailelight. TO PLEAD INSANITY Insanity will be the defense in the charge of murder against Wilbert Richard Williams, retired school teacher, of Kingston, who announced to the police on Wednesday morning last that he had killed his wife with a hammer because she had long been nagging him. It is learned that Wil- liams some time ago was examined by a doctor as to his mental condi- tion at his own request. Since his ar- rest, Williams has shown no concern over his deed. He tells about quar- rels he and his wife had since their marriage." Their domestic life ap- pears to have been very unhappy. Williams' father died some time ago leaving a large estate to his widow and two sons. The mother, who re- sides at Clandeboye, near London, Ont., is 88 years of age. It has been discovered that the charge against Williams stated that his wife's name, Gertrude, was an error, Mrs, Wil- liams' Christian name was Maude and Crown Attorney Rigney has giv- en orders to have the mistake recti- fied. The deceased woman's sister is named Gertrude Runnings and she is in Vienna, Austria, at present. INQUEST ADJOURNED Dr. C. J. Hamilton, Coroner, who yesterday presided over the inquest into the death of Charles U. Thomp- son, who was killed in a motor ac- cident near Aultsville on August 6, strongly condemned the practice of reckless driving so prevalent on the highways. The er instructed the jury to bring in such recommen- dations as they saw fit, to be for- warded to the Attorney-General, with a view to lessening the number of motor-car fatalities. The evidence was to the effect that a car driven by Mr. Thompson was coming west on the highway near Aultsville and a car driven by Miss Bertha Drum- mond was coming east, and the two collided. J. Tinkess testified that Thompson was in_ fit condition to drive, but other witnesses testified to the contrary. As Miss Drummond was still fined to the hospital, the inquest was adjourned until August 28. J. G. Harkness, County Crown Attorney, appeared for the Crown.

The Prime Minister was accompanied by Dr. O. D. Skelton, under-secretary of States for external affairs, and by Harry Baldwin, the premier's priv- ate secretary. They sail early Sat- urday morning on the Ile de France, the steamship on which Mr. Kellogg is travelling from the United States. Premier King will later proceed to Geneva for a meeting of the League of Nations, whch will also be attended by the Hon. Raoul Dandurand and Hon. Charles A. Dunning from Canada. The Canadian Prime Minister will return to Paris the first week of October for the opening of the new Capadan legation, after which he will spend some time in the Motherland. Before leaving Ottawa Mr. King had an informal talk with Lord Lovat of the Empire Settle- ment Board, who is visiting Can- ada with the object of stimulating British migration to the Dominion. Lord Lovat has been in conference with the Hon. Robert Forke, Min- ister of Immigration, and it is hoped that some definite scheme will be worked out whereby Can- ada will get more settlers from the United Kingdom. Arrives in New York New York, Aug. 17.--On his way to Paris to sign the Multilateral Treaty for the outlawing of war, the Prime Minister of Canada, Right Hon. W. L. Mackenzie King, arrived here tonight and went m- mediately to embark for the voy- age to France. "I am delighted to be going over," sald Mr. King. "I think the whole of Canada is back of every movement to create a world spirit which will insure peace and this is one very important step in that direction." Mentioning with apparent pleas- ure that he would represent Can- ada at the Council of the League of Nations, the Premier said he found the spirit of the League and of the treaty about to be signed very much akin, " MARITIME GYROS MEET IN MONCTON Business Sessions Open To- day--200 in Attend- iy ance Moncton, N.B.,, Aug. 17.--Gy« ros from all parts of the Maritimes and Newfoundland gathered here recently for the annual convention of Gyro District No. 6.

Steamship #1 San Sebastian, Spain, Aug. 17. --Official tests of a device intended to prevent explosion of marine and industrial boilers were successfully conducted on board the steamship Juanita here. Steam pressure was raised to a point which in ordinary circum- stances would have caused the boil- er to explode. High pressure caus- ed a plate made of a special metal- lic alloy to be melted away, open- ing an outlet to steam into the fire box; the steam partially ex- tinguished the fires, lowering the pressure, Three officials of the ministry of labor witnessed the test. Only a few persons who were sure of the efficiency of the device were allow- ed on board the Juanita, includ- ing the inventor, Senor Joaq in Yarza. DOGS YWHICH BIT CHILDREN ARE HELD AT ST. THOMAS St. Thomas, Aug. 17.--Two dogs that bit young people here last Sat- urday evening and Sunday mornin, are still in the city dog pound po are being closely watcher, Health In- spector C. J. Watling reported today. Neither of the persons bitten has suffered any serious 'effect so far. One dog was brought into the city by a party of motorists from Detroit, while the other is a mongrel belong- ing to an Indian family in the city. Inspector Watling stated that in event of anything serious developing, the dogs will not be released to their owners until official sanction has been received from the Ontario De- partment of Health. ~~ headquarters in a local hotel on | in Highest There is something piquant in the fact that the new head of the Church of Epgland, the Right Hon- orable Cosmo Gordon Lang, who be- comes Archbishop of Canterbury next November 12, will be a Scotsman suc- ceeding another Scotsman, Dr. Ran- dall Davidson. Moreover, Dr. Lang started out in iife as a Presbyterian Scot. But there is more than that in the change to be effected this winter. A comparatively vigorous man of 63 succeeds an old man and weary and heart-broken octogerian. A bach- elor succeeds a married man, A great orator succeeds a great scholar. A man who worked among the poor of the East End of London and understands them, and who broadened his sympathies by travel, suc.ceds a man of aristocratic out- look. _ He is the only Archbishop who ever wrote a novel. It failed. He is the only Archbishop who ever wrote a play in verse. It also failed. He started out to be a lawyer and landed in the church. It has been said of him that had he 'stuck to the law, he would have been a Lord Chancellor had he gone into politics, he would have been a Prime Minister. Instead, he became an ecclesiastic and has attained the highest office possible to a cleric in England. He may turn out to be a fighting Archbizhop. He has the cold legal mind, lacks the affability of his pre- decessor, makes few mistakes, and few friends. Dr. Lang's father was an eminent Scottish Presbyterian divine, the principal of Aberdeen University. Young Lang studied law at the Inner PHONE 22 For Your Drug Needs THOMPSON'S 10 Simcoe St. 8.--~We Deliver Scot Succeeding to Scot Church Office Templ., London. But on the eve of being .called to the bar he abandoned law, went into the Church of Eng- land, and served as curate in the big industrial city of Leeds, 1890-93. He then became a Fellow and Dean of Divinity at Oxford University, and afterwards Vicar of St. Mary's in Oxford. From 189 te 1901 he was Vicar of Portsea and thus came into contact with Queen Victoria on her frequent visits to Osborne. He be- came one of her honorary chaplains, and her favorite preacher. His career was made. At the age of 44 he became Arch- bishop of York, secondary in import- ance only to the Archbishop of { Canterbury. In 1918 he made an ex- tensive tour of this continent, marked by a series of speeches distinguished by the height of their patriotic fer- vor. He is the author of a large number of religious works, and was the founder and inspirer of the Church of England Men's Society. Scotsmen, who believe in that sort of thing, look to him to be a mighty leader in the church of which he is now the head--because he is the seventh son of a seventh son. NEW TORONTO PLANT TO INCREASE OUTPUT New Toronto, Aug. 17.--An addi- tion to the New Toronto plant of the Goodyear Tire and Rubber Com- pany, of Canada, which will increase the output of the factory by nearly 33 per cent. is being considered by the officials of the concern. The pre- sent plant is capable of turning out 9,200 tires a day. The new building will be a four- story and basement structure, 300 feet long by 100 feet deep. According to President C. H.
