Captain Thomas Mackenzie, of Fred- ericton, N.B,, is visiting his brother, George Mackenzie, Broek street. His parents were old Kingstonians, and the visitor has been a soldier since the 94th Regi- ment, of which his father was master tailor; he was through the Indian mutiny, serving at Lucknow, Cawn- pore, etc., under Sir Henry Havelock, Lord Clyde and Sir Colin Campbell, He also went throuch the Persian campaign, just previous to the muti- ny, and on his way home from Persia, in the city of Bombay, he got from ane man-of-war Seamer to another, an proceeded to Calcutta on tl breaking out of the mutiny, Mr. Mackenzie some time ago wrote a book concerning his experiences in the field, and has in his proud. pos- session a letter from Lord Roberts, expressing the field marshal's appreci- ation of the same. Did Not Occur. The yacht race, on Saturday after- noon, did not materialize. It was the race billed for the late Old Bovs' re- ception festivities and which had to be postponed owing to lack of wind, that was arranged for Saturday, but a like defect on the part of the weather man made a second postpone- ment necessary. The fast Gananoque yachts were up for the event and the octal fleet were ready for the fray. Keen rivalry oxists between the craft and their several merits and demerits are continually contrasted when the sailors gather on the Yacht Club hal- y "the patronage com- mittee (I think that is what they ves) of the city of Kings- ton claim the right to & militia in eastern On- any liberal appointee protest that while do the Be aT ad TT ------ Capt. ¥.

Capt. Allen thoughtfully slowed when near the scene, thus sav- ing the motor Loats from the disad- varit of receiving the steamer's swells, and also allowing his passen- gers to enjoy threat. On the way to Clayton the America was passed by H. 8. Folger, in his fast yacht, Comanche, which made the trip from Kingston to m in slightly over one hour. Between Thousand Island Park and the Bay, the racing motor boats also passed the steamer again on their way back to their moorings. Traffic Is Great. With the ing and going of river boats and the ing of regular steam- ers, Swift's wharf presented a busy scene, yesterday. In the morning the steamer Dundurn en route to Montreal. The steamer City of Mon- treal passed up, and the steambarge Business, on way to the u lakes, called for coal, Owing to decks being so high over the wharf, and lacking the needed tressle, she had to proceed. The captain sail he had ten hours' coal and that would likely run them to Charlotte. As the afternoon wore on the Sun- day erowd took ion of every available space. uty was there in all her glory of a white frock and rr ietred bonnet, and her chewing gum. She of the googoo eye was among those present to elicit from an upper deck from a crowd of "shirt waisters," "Hello, Chien a "thé boat. Many « ow oll 1S a fair maid silently bemoaned the fate of a pair of white shoes, in the dust. "When will you be over again, Alice?" floated from the wharf, and before one could hear an answer one heard a frantic mother of four crying out, "Harry do hurry up; your're breaking that lunch basket." And yet withal it was a merry erowd. The steamer Bellville had a goodly number on board for Montreal. The steamer North King had a crowd on her decks which equalled any trip this summer. Nearly 200 Kingstonians had the pleasure of the trip among the islands on this popu- lar steamer. "The traffic from the islamds to the city has commenced," was the com- ment of one of the crew of the steam er Toronto. Yesterday she carried 364 down the river, among whom were 100 round trippers, and when she passed up there were 350 passengers. This was the record of the summer for an up trip. A basket of chickens, and dead ones at that, held up this float- ing palace of the lakes for ten min- utes. She ran short of provisions, fund had to make a Sunday purchase ere. The steamer Rideau Queen arrived from Clayton early in the evening, she having made the trip down Sa- turday night. Marine Notes. The propellor Persia passed up yes- terday. The steamer Alotha made the bay trip to-day. The steamer H. P. Bigelow was in fort this morning, en route up the ideau. The schooner Acacia was put in the government dry-dock this morning to be overhauled. The schooner St. Louis cleared from coal at Oswego Crawford's to load "| tractors, obtained a verdict rose and Quebec cleared for Fort Wil- Kam; tug Hall and three grain barges cleared for Montreal; steamer Fair- mount cleared for Fort William.

All fresh, at Gibson's Red Cross Drug Store. The more the tory News shouts to hold its tory president in office, the less chance is there of his retention. Let the tory sheets acclaim that a tory, is the right man for a grit of- fice and the liberal mettle will be tested. For dry, cracked lips, or rough skin, use Dr. Shoop's Green Salve. It posi- tively makes lips and skin like velvet. Sold by all druggists. The C.P.R. local officers are- getting ready for the farm labourers' excur- sion to Winnipeg, which leaves here Wednesday. It is estimated that about 200 will take in the trip from along the line of the K. & P. RR, and probably another hundred from the city. Yesterday afternoon, there came near being a fatality at Cedar Island. A number of young girls from the city were bathing when one got beyond her , and was soon floundering in the water. She was rescued from her dangerous position by her father, who happened to be near by. Emerson Henderson had quite an experience, Friday night. He was see- ing some friends of on the steamer Dundurn, when the boat put off be- fore he could get back on the wharf.

Prevost, Brock street, is having a great clearing sale in all his depart- ments, clothing made to order, ready- made clothing, and gents' furnishings. People in need of the above goods will save money, as he will make a great sacrifice of all goods to make room for fall and winter importa- tions. The Delicious Drink, It would be hard to imagine a more iC0us beverage than ice cream soda water as it is served at Wade's drug store. No effort or expense is spared to make it perfect. The materials are al- ways the best, the glasses are clean and the service prompt and pleasing. Kingstonians' Loss.

POLSON'S CHEMIST WORKS ENTERED. ; P= The Plice Was Well RanSatked and Goods Carried Of -- Nitric Acid Spoiled Big Order of Goods. Between eleven o'clock Saturday night and sevem welode Sunday even- ing burglars entered premises, on ar rect, occupied by the' firm of N. C. Polson & Sons, manuiactur- ing chemists. The thieves gained ad- mittance through a window of the door at the rear of the building. The glass therein was broken but the opening had been securely boarded in. This covering was loosened and en- trance thereby gained. It is surmised that youths went into the building through older heads may have been on the outside engineering the ex- ploit. One fact is evident, however, and that is, the marauders were thor- oughly acquainted with the interior of the place for they knew just where to go for the most desirable articles. Both upstairs and down the stock was strewn about and a little taken from different lots. On the ground floor some orders which had been made up for delivery are missing and' about a hundred yards of ribbon. A large bot- tle of pitric acid was spilled by the marauders and about $40 worth of goods ready for shipment thereby de- stroyed, The office desks were also rifled, but nothing valaable Secuded. P.C, Arniel has charge of thescase and hopes soon to have the guilty{parties located. . ONLY A DUMP. Aberdeen Avenue in An Unhealth- ful Condition. Residents of upper Johnson street, are registering « complaints over the sorry condition of Aberdeen avenue. "It was given to the corporation for a street," said an interested tax- payer, "and yet the city allows it to be nothing more than a dump heap. The board of health ought to investi- gate as certainly the way refuse is al- lowed to be put there is not conducive to the community's health." Was A Strict One. He was a solemn Scotchman, with an equally solemn and somewhdt down-trodden wife. The fact that they were receiving an excellent price for their "second pair front" from ax American lodger did not blind them to her failings. "Dear me, Mr. Macleod," said 'the lodger, one Sunday afternoon, when an 'errand took her to the parlor, where the family sat, "1 should think you and your wife would be stifled sitting indoors this hot day with the windows shut. If you'd just open one and get some fresh air, I'm sure it would do Mrs. Macleod good; ' she looks pale." Mr. Macleod looked at her with his usual stern and unbending gaze. "We can: hae fresh air ony day," he said calmly. "We've no need to hae it rushing aboot the house on the Sawbath.' : At St. Mary's Cathedral. The festival of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary was observed in St. Mary's cathedral, on Sunday, with much ceremony. Rev. Father Arthur Staley,of St. Michael's College, Tor- onto, celebrated grand high" mass. The archbishop presided on the throne with the assistants. The sermon was preached by Rev. Dr. Teely, superior of the Basilian Scholasticate, Toron- to, and was a lucid exposition of the doctrine of the Assumption of the Vir- gin Mary by the Roman church. The choir rendered Gounod's Messe Breve in an excellent manner. In the musical part the talented organist, Prof. Pelletier, displayed his great ability in handling the organ. At the offer tory, Miss Staley sang the "Ave Maria," with much taste. Mrs. Arm- strong in the "Aenus Dei," displayed her rich voice to advantage. Saved A Young Woman. A very serious case was aired at the police station, Saturday mid: night, which, if the offends. are caught, will Jand them in the police court. Saturday evening a voung girl, a domestic, went driving with a young man on the York Road. While out with her her companion attempted an assault.
