Million Dollar Rain Belleville. -- A million dollar rain visited this district over the week-end and the agrarian is wearing a smile that won't come off. The rain was accompanied by cold weather, which has up to now, not affected the crop already planted and if the frost does not come, the cold spell will have little effect. It is better that it keep cloudy for a couple of days in order that the rain which fell, will soak into the ground, instead of evap- 25th Anniversary Belleville. -- On Wednesday of this week the local.council Knights of Columbus, celebrate the tewn- ty-fifth' anniversary of their orga- nization in Belleville.

His apprenticeship in crime was served just before the war as the assistant to an advertising agent. By means of forged orders the pair netted nearly £20,000 before Jennings was sent to prison for 12 months. Jennings served long enough dur- ing the war to value the advantage of an officer's rank. When the war ended he appeared in the West Ena of London as an ex-Army captain.

His activities -generally brought him te the notice of Scot- land Yard officers who classed him as a master criminal. Though those associated with him were convicted one after ano- ther, Jennings always escaped seri- ous trouble. His comparative immunity led him to his greatest and most spec- tacular gamble in 1922. when he stood as an Independent Liberal candidate for north Paddington. He secured advances from the "Wee Free' headquarters, paid his deposit of $750, and then scattered his worthless cheques throughout the constituency. A man of eloquent speech and charming "manners, he was an ideal candidate. But his "dud" cheques came back, and while he was argu- ing with the returning officer about his deposit, after having polled over 6,000 vbtes, Jennings was arrested. This venture earned him a sen- tence of four years' imprisonment. On his release he returned to criminal practice and succeeded in avoiding trouble until his vanity led him to pose as a bishop. Jennings, who used the more im. posing name of Frank Oswald Char- teris in crime, is obviously a man of good education. Yet "the Yard" has never identified his school and knows singularly little about his early life. With his monocle and immaculate morning attire he was about the best dressed, best conducted, and most skilful of the confidence men who haunt the fashionable quarters of London. FRUIT TRADE OF 5. AFRICA GROWS Provision of Facilities at Har- bors of Great Help to Export Trade Cape Town; South Africa, April 27.--The extent to which the fruit export trade from South Africa is increasing is evidenced by the fact that 900,000 cases of oranges | were shipped from Cape Town during the year 1930 as against 400,000 in 1928, according to The 'Cape Argus. This satisfactory state of affairs has been brought about largely through the pre-cooling facilities provided by the South African Railways and Harbors at Durban as well as Cape Town. The pre-cooling store at Cape Town is situated on the East Pier --No. 8 berth-----whence the mail- boats depart. When No. 8 berth fs occupied it naturally follows that only one ship can be loaded from the store, and the Adminis- tration has, therefore, decided to construct an overhead gallery round the bend of the East Pier, which will permit of ships at No. 7 berth being loaded with fruit from the store simultaneously with thoze at No. 8 berth. ay will consist of a covereqd insulated overhead curved passage with double tracks, and will run from the second story of the pre-cooling store to the supper story of the earge shed, The pre- cooled fruit will be packed on bar- rows in the store and a specially designed electrical trolley, with trailers, will convey these barrows along the gallery to the loading | platforms. The steelwork and rein- | forced concrete in the foundations are at present being resigned, and every endeavor will be made to have the entire work increased loading facilities will ensure gwifter dispatch of traffic and will considerably Ie n th movement of ships in the basin. In addition to the pre this new gallery, further ments are being made aprove- to the store itself in the raising of the air lock roof and the construction of another floor, which will be { refrigerated when {increased traf- fic demands the additional accom- modation. The demands of fruit traffic have received attention for some years. and a type of iced re- frigerator truck, which maintains | a constant temperature of 33 de- | grees Fahrenheit for a continuous perie:d of 60 "hours without re- icing, has been in service for sev- eral years.
