Up in Sul'iv.-m they have it about aa bad. At a sale them the prices r^ii^ed from 87 to $155, and a cow with calf itfoot brought $158, but these were thoroughbreds. Richard H.

A belated conversion is better than none and wo are desirous of giving all the credit that I is due, therefore this explanation. The return game of hockey was played J on Friday night between Dundalk and our home team. The boys faced oue an- other a little after eight o'clock, but when Dundalk sr what they were up ngainsr, they withdrew, and would not play until the goal keeper for the town ,-erydy j teanl was taken off, which was agreed to 'about 9.45. The game atarted fast, and iho referee btgau penalising the Fleshertou toys without any reaaon. This soon caused disputes, which ended in a free-for-all. TliH referee was told that he was to blame for not acting justly. He took years ago, died of Bright's disease last I the advice and the game was good from week at Achesou, Ks, aged 50 yean. While living here he married Margaret Myles, a aiater of Mr. A. . Mylea of Kimberley, and who only lived a short that on. The Dundalk teaai played some very good combination, which waa well met by the home defence. McTav- iah and Piper wore well in the lime light by their hard work aad personal rushes.
