The cargo is now ly- saying that it was the greatest sur- prise of his life when he received the letter from her, as he had no idea that he had a child living by his first wife, He related the experiences of his trip up the lakes, the shipwreck, his rescue and subsequent events in his life, "It was not 'until I came back to civilization that I heard that vou and vour mother were dead," eontinued the letter, "and as I had then noth- ing to come back for, 1 joined a pro- specling party and went to the Rock Mountains. We w almost un- bearable hardships, and secured very little pold. 1 then went to Alaska, and made $20,000, only to lose it on the way out, while comin~ down the White Horse rapide." Mr. Settering- ton went on to tell of his trip to Victoria, and of his marriage there, fourteen years ago. : "I am quite an old man now and cannot expect to live much loner, and as I may never see you, T want vou to write mo and tell me all that has hanvened to vou during vour life and I also want vour photo." The letter went on to state how much pleasure it gave the writer to know that he had a dauchter living. Mrs. Hebert was greatly surprised to receive word from her father, who she had never seen. Mr. Setterineton is wellknown to many of the older citizns of Kingston, who knew him when he served here in Teto de Pont Barracks. and all speak of him as a good soldier and thorough gentleman at all times, CONSTRUCTION OF WALKS. The Work Will Likely Cease in An- other Week. In another week, the city's walk construction gangs will cease work for the season. At present one gang is lay- ing a much- ed walk on Ear] street between Division street and University avenue, and the other is at work down on Rideau street. On Earl street, large tree had to be cut down, before the walk could be laid, and one or two more trees should come down in order that the walk may not be up- '| heaved. When the work of walk con- struction is completed for the year, probably there will be four scheduled walks untouched. These will probably be the first laid next spring. A num- ber of cinder walks have been laid this season in places where the board- walks were dangerous and had to be torn up. Property owners in some places did not feel like paying for concrete, so cinder paths were made, a8 they were the cheapest and also more preferable than hoardwalks, A Good Mining .roperty, Smith Elliott, who has been off on a short holiday, visiting relatives, took the opportunity of going to Stockton, Ill, and looking through in which interested Mr. Elliott went into the three shafts opened up upon the -Sov- eral drifts, and although a an amateur in such work, he saw en- | ough to thoroughly convince him that the amount he invested is well placed. He has taken more of the stock since inspecting the property. i 5 Will Visit Kingston. .

SUNDAY DRINKING. Much of the Liquor is Laid in on Saturday. John McLaughlin, confectioner, Prin- cobs street, does not agree with the statement that drunken men who are sometimes seen in the lane behind Brock street Methodist church Sun- days, get their liquor from bars. He ives close by and sees what goes on. '""The men who go in there," he says, "have bottles with them, and they do not buy these on Sunday, They go in the lane to drink, for 1 have seen them time and again." That there is a certain amount of Sunday liquor selling is well known, but allowance must be made for those who put in a supply on Saturday af- ternoon for their Sunday orgies, In one house in town a small keg of beer is delivered every Saturday for Sab- bath refreshments. Inspector Wright says that he has been keeping Sunday watch ever since he 'was appointed inspector, and that He does not intend to act the part of a spy; his position, he says, does not call for that. But he keeps his eye open, and if there was any glar- ing violation of the law he would know of it. He doesn't believe, how- ever, that there is the amount of Sunday selling that some people ima- gine there is, ANOTHER MEETING CALLED. Question of Local Option Again .to the Front. The question of local option is again to the front. The meeting called for on Tuesday night did not mater- ialize, but those at the back of the matter will soon call another meeting. Flijah Purdy, who has been out with the petition asking for local option, stated to the Whig, to-day, that he had secured two hundred sig- natures, Quite a large number approached have refused to the petition, claiming that jt would not be a bene- fit to the general public to have local option; Es Popular Music.

Toronto, Oct: 4.--William Chessar was committed for trial, this morn- ing, gence, thereby causing the death of James Righy, killed by the collapse of a on a new building where Chessar was foreman. The evidence given before the coroner's jury "as ithat the scaffold was badly construct- ed, and insecure. The comtractor, 8.

TWrown lived with them and claimed that the assault; was committed out of re- venge. When the magistrate asked || Brown what he did for a living. he immediately produced a bundle of cir- culars, telling of the virtues of the evergreen ointment, and commenced to distribute them, remarkine to the magistrate : "Read it out, your wor- ship: 1 might as well get a little ad- vertising out of this." But when the magistrate asked him. if he took his own ointment for his injuries. he re- plied, "Oh, no, 1 call a doctor." The case was not concluded. Game and fishery officers H. Wat- son, Toronto, and. J. Loveday, Otta- wa, have made a seizure of illegal shipments of fish. One shipment was made from Chatham, and the fish were distributed among the charitable in<| stitutions of the city. The fish seized at Ottawa were sold. In both cases the. shipments contained some fish too small and other caught out of season. MAY BE A STRIKE.

HH AE EEK EEREXKERKEE BE REYNOLDS' FINE EFFORT. Walked 138 Miles in 36 Hours, 22 Minutes. Port Hope, Ont., Oct. 23. "Jimmy" Reynolds, Port Hope's plucky pedes- trian barber, finished his great walk from Port Hope to Toronto and re- turn at twenty-two minutes past six o'clock, this evening, He, according- ly, covered the 138 miles in thirty-six hours twenty-two minutes, a wonder- ful performance. This is two hours and ten minutes less than the time taken by Longford, the Renfrew pedes- trian, over the same course last week, Reynolds is fifty-seven years old and was met at the outskirts of the town and welcomed by a large crowd, which accompanied him to the.Queen's ho- tel. He walked to the desk gdilv, and signed his name amid a scene of great enthusiasm, smiline and bowing re- peatedly in response to the cheering of the crowd. He looked pale but otherwise in good condition. He went over to his barber shop, where he was rubhed down before retiring. Rev- nolds says that the walk was an aw- ful effort, but that he can do it arain without any difficulty. and that he mav decide to clip the odd twenty minutes off his record before long. STORY OF A GHOST. It is Now in the Supreme Court For Decision. Ottawa, Oct. 24.--In the supreme court, to-day, the case of the Mani- toba Free Press comphny versus Nagy was begun. The Free Press published an article stating that Nagy"s house was haunted. Damages were claimed for expenses incurred in guarding the premises from the crowds attracted there by the article in question, for loss of rent and depreciation of value. Judge Macdonald dismissed the claim at the trial but, on appeal, this judg- ment was reversed and $1,000 onleved as a verdict. The defendants appeal against this decision. on the ground that the item of the ghost story was not damaging nor maliciously pub: WAL NEGLECT Underskirts To wear with new Fall Suits.
