Jebrolski remained in the police sta- tion cells during the day, awaiting the arrival of the Chatham authorities to take him to the penitentiary. He was very hungry, and devou his breakfast with groat relish. The prisoner smiled sadly when an interviewer remarked that it was thought he would have been over the border long ere this. "You made a bad job of your chance to get away," he was told, He replied that it was more difficult to got away t one imagined. The desire at first is strong in a man, but after he has wandered a couple of days without food, with an injured leg, and is otherwise sore, and fearing to approach the abode of man, the dread of prison confinement wears off, and he is glad to allow the 'law to take its course, and to receive the punishment meted out to him. "I'll never again attempt to. es cape," Jebrolski declared, with a laugh, as he sat down on his cell boneh in his shirt sleeves to attack a ast. y give me more time for doing what I did?" he asked. When assured that it was very unlikely, but that if he was a" model prisoner in the penitentiary his sentence would be reduced for good. behavior, his roply was, "Thank you." : Se; Refused To Act, The escape uf Jebrelski has natural- ly drawn forth much comment.

Lad Arrested For Stealing From Cash Box. "A thief! a thief I" one can hear the wild yells as a motley crowd dashed excitedly down Princess street, late yesterday afternoon, in pursuit of the wrong-doer. Police Constable Mul- linger, going up street, headed off the criminal and made the bold arrest of a boy scarce eight years old. Of late Gover' butcher shop on incess street, has suffered from thieving from the till. Yesterday, a little boy was caught in the 'act ly Robert Gowdy, who had been left in charge of the establishment. and who happened to be in the back shop. The little fellow took $2.06 in silver from the cash box. His case had a private hearing in the office of the chief of police this mornine. the boy was given a good talking to by Magistrate Farrell. The only thing that could be done was ordered, a whipping, and the father of the child promised to pay more at- tention to his boy in the future. Quite An Absurdity. There is an absurdity iit' the suit for the reward for capture of the convict Charlabran not generally understood. He literally walked into the arms of his captors, being anxious to give himsolf up, tired of bein~ hunted, as well as of sleeping out and of forag- ing for food. Havine broken into a house and stolen clothing, he expect- ed to be hunted down by farmers out of revenge, therefore walked towards the group of men in Leeds in a spirit of resignation. The government ful- filled ges in paying the reward, but to put in claims for it is to exag- gerate the services performed. To Visit Relations. Mr. and Mrs, A. D. Middleton, New York, are in the city to visit their sisters, on Clergy street.

Kingston harbor, the most important at this end, is al lowed to exist with a bad shoal in its centré, In the opinion of marine men, there shouldn't be a buoy in this harbor. The shoals that have long caused trouble to deep-draught vessels should be removed at once. This is another task that the Board of Trade might take upon its shoul- ders. " Collision Leads To Triple Action. As a result of the collision of the R. & 0. steamer Hamilton, with the grain barge Huron 1 canal, on May 19th, 1905, three ac tions for damages have been set down for trial in the admiralty court, Mont- real.

EE -- LAST BAND (ONE OF THE SEASON GIVEN LAST ; EVENING. Hiding There Was a Great Crowd in Mac- donald = Park--City Council Money Well Expended In Giv- ing the People Pleasures. Last evening's band concert in Mac- donald park ended the series of the seascn, The concerts have been emjoy- ed rll summer by immense crowds, and the city council was vin ing a rant for this open air music which as given so much pleasure to the citizens. The law allows municipal bodies to make grants of money for band concerts, the reason being that money so expended is for the benefit of all the people. This year's gouncil grant was not sufficient to cover the cost of the series; but the balance was guaranteed by Lieut.-Col. Kent, Major Cunningham, Capt, Mowat and other officers of the 14th regiment. The 14th band under the leadership of Bandmaster W. H, Walker, has given excellent concerts, and none was more enjoyable than that of fast evening. The weather was warm, and the moon shone over the water and the park at nine o'clock: There was a large number of boats along the shore. The park contained a big crowd of at- tentive listeners to the music. AN OLD GUARD DEAD. Robert McCauley, of Portsmouth, Passed to Rest.
