In this connection' the corréspondent men- tions a "piece of old London that forms-one of the attractions in High Park, Toronto, thé railings that sur- round the tomb of John G. Howard and his wife. ' "Off the Hastings road at Helm- hurst," says the correspondent, in dealing with old London, "is a statue of Queen Anne that stood for years near St, Paul's Cathedral. The sta- tue was found in a broken staté in an old stone yatd in the city by the late Augustus Hare, well-known traveller, and he had the pieces carted down to Hastings with the aid of 28 horses, four trollies and 16 men, The rails ings that surrounded the statue are believed to be now in Toromto, They are said to adorn the grave of a loving couple who begged for the rail- ings because, in their young days, they had courted in St. Paul's church- yard' One of the iron posts at the gate in the railings referred t6 by the correspondent as surrounding the burial plot in High Park has on it a brass plate bearing the following in- scriotion : "Saint Paul's Cathedral for 160 years I did Enclose. Oh! Stranger, ook with Réverence. : Man! Man! Unstable Man! It was Thou who Caused the Severance." High Park was given to the city of Toronte by the late John George Howard, who died in 1890 in his 87th vear. His wife, Jemima Frances Howard, beside whom he was buried, died in 1877, age 75 years. oh The correspondent of the Daily News and Westminster Gazette re- fers to old Hungerford Bridge, once at Charing Cross, as now being the Cliften Suspension Bridge, near Bris- tol. "Temple Bar," he says, "which, for centuries, marked the division of the city of London and the City of West- minster stands in Theobalds Park, the seat of the Meux family. Under its shadow huntsmen now gather for the chase, and its gruesome associa- tions are forgotten. "An equestrian statue of the Duke of Wellifigton, which stood at the ton of Constitution Hill near Apsley House now has an open position on the heights near Aldershot. The iron steed on which the Duke sits is of such efiormous size that on one oc- casion a party got inside and had a meal."

The Motors have been out in front with a strong line-up. Front Street, Whiz and the Foundry have been running neck and neck for second place. After the schedule is completed with- in the next two weeks, the teams will likely disband until the next season. Most likely one or two will arrange exhibition games with out-of-town teams. It would have been more fit- ting if the league had joined up with the Ontario Amateur Softball Associ- ation and sent the leading team into the provincial séries to gain some honors for Bowmanville, The lead- ing team in the town group will have to be a strong one to subdue the op- position put up by any of the other teams. This year there have been a large number of centres join up with the association; Six districts joined up under the sénior series. Twenty-one have joined up for the intermediate series, one of these being Oshawa. Six have also joined up for the junior competition, one again being from Oshawa.
