This Rideau lakes trip is one of the New York Central 'trips, hein reach- ed by the Central via Cave Vincent. where the steamer meets trains, and takes the tourist twentv-ome miles across old Lake Ontario to King- ston. The best wav is to board the Rideau boat at night arriving, of early rising. as the start is made at © am. By the time you are ready to arise the five miles of the marshy land have been covered and you are at Kingston Mills, the sight' of the first "lift" or lock. Then you begin climbing the hill. You travel miles «in reaching the top of the divide. You Pass through farmers' corn fields and door yards, and every lock is ga "station," where passengers may be taken on or dropped off without de- laying the steamer. You enjoy your broakiast with bits of ting Scenery engrossing your attention as the speedy etoamer hurries on its way, and covery few miles you find a lock constructed of masonry, century enduring, which lifts the boat to a level of water from ten to fifteen feet higher, until Jones' Falls is reached. Here you are given a "boost" of ninety feet in four locks. and vou are in the lakes proper and learn how it is that a passenger steamer can take this route over hills and through val- leys to the capital of United Canada, the city which Canadians hove to make the "Washington of the North." At Jones' Falls there arises a dam of masonry that baffles adequate de- soription, for figures do not convey an idea of the immensity of the ocon- struction. It literally took barrels of money to build it, for the payment of labor was made in silver quarters and half dollars, drawn into the country by ox teams, guarded by militia. This dam, so wide an embankment that it secoms to be at this day of natural in- stead of artifidial construction, held back the waters of forty lakes and flooded thousands of acres of land now known as drowned lands, and affords an unlimited supnly of water. And yet this was not enough, for higher up, back in the hills there were other dame built to afford an auxiliary sup- ly ol water as occasion demanded. This dam eoivex a very full idea as to what the buildine of this great wat- erway actually meant: and as to the immensity of the project. After all this work was not so vast an undertaking. as the lakes chosen for the route needed only to he con- nected by short lengths, and dredeed t in places.

"Nick" claimed the farmer was yitin produce to the storekeepers alo rock street, and as he was within 100 vards of the market he should pay toll. This Har- pell refused to do, claiming that he was only delivering goods sold last Thursday. Both the parties interested in the argument could go some when it came to. talking, and the sergeant had to use all the lung power he had in re- serve to restore order, and impress the dispptants with the fact that he was not trying the case. Finally Har- pell dod up, but left determined to seek legal advice regarding his rights, "Nick's" parting shot was that if he let them "those farmers would bluff vou off the earth." KINGSTON"S SUNDAY Proves Too Peaceful For Visitors to Town. Kingston has attained a reputation for being a desperately quiet place on a summer Sabbath day: For visitors there is absolutely nothing to do, but go to church. Tourists, who stay here over Sunday, express themselves as greatly disappointed over the quiet which prevails. They cdnnot got shaved, or get liquor, or go on river excursions, except by early morning traffic boats. The only outdoor musi» is by the Salvation Army band for a while in the afternoon in the City Park, There can be no remedy this year, as the summier is nearing a close, but it is suggested that next next year the city council petition the street railway company to run its cars on Sundays; petition the Ontario vernment, Ho lop the: bars . arber shops to do business: petition the minister of customs to allow Sun- day excursion boats to land here, and itsell 'make a special grant for Sun- day afternoon and evening band con- certs in the parks. AETTERS TO THE EDITOR. York Mail. Kingston, Aug. 27.--(To the FKdit- or) : Of late there has heen great dis- satisfaction over the delivery of the United States mail, via Cape Vincent. It is said that its late arrival here is due chiefly to the fact that in sum- mer time excursions are run over the New York Central railroad and that the mail is carried on these exeursion trains. Is it not scandalous that the New York Central should do such a thing as to carry mail in slow excur- sion trains ! There shovld be a cor- rection of that system at once. Again, the Cape Vincent steamer, I am told, sometimes waits for an odd passenger or two and thus delavs prompt ar- rival of the mail."
