The Queen Street Sewer. A committee consisting of the may- or and Alds. Toye, Gaskin, Chown and Elliott was appointed to appor- the amount of the cost of the Queen street sewer extension that should be charged to the light and power committee. The work has been done under the supervision of the board of works, but the latter's ap- propriation will not be called upon to any of the cost. The amount not chargeable to the light and pow- er plant must be charged to a special account. Debentures will have to be jesned for the amount. It seems that the board of works has been charged with the whole expenditure, and that its approvriation is at an end. Ald. Gaskin asked that his committee's ac- t be relieved of the charge, else fa street work would have to cease. The mayor promised to arrange with auditor to pass whatever the board of works required until a proper adiostment was made. Ald. Henderson said he hoved the sewer extension pipe would be com- pleted as soon ss possible. It was un- fortunate that the pipe had been put in commission before it was laid fully out to the outside of the M. T. com- pany pier. For the past two weeks the sewage that formerly entered the Queen street slip, now was dumped into the M. T. company's hasin, which wae hecoming filled with lth. Ald. Gaskin said that the pipe would soon he completed and carrying the sewage out beyond the pier and intn deep water. The council o'clock. Anything To Be Healed ?

Chown, acting for Ald. Toye, the chairman of the light and power ) { committee, who was in Toronto on business, replied that he had no in- formation on the matter. Ald.

"The Mayor of Laughland," which comes to the Grand on Wednesday, Nov. 6th, promises to be one of the funniest musical comedies of the sea- son. Particular care was taken - in the new picce to provide Mr. Waters with just the kind of a part in which he can do his best work--one of those whole-souled Irishmen with a fund of natural wit and inexhaustible faculty of getting himself into trou- ble. In fact the entire plot of "The be Mayor of Laughland" is constructed about one, "Michael Ignatius O'Flynn" with never a dull moment. William Swaine, piano tuner. Order 4 | received at McAuley's.

William Robinson, ex-M.P.P., is eigh- ty-three years old to-day. On .t streets, he received the congratulations of his old friends as he we his way down town to the Whig bulletin which he is always on hand to read. Mr. Robinson js feeling much better than for several . All that trou- bles him is a tot of sheumatiam, but it will take more than that to lay out an Irishman of his calibre. Mr. Robinson was born in Antrim, Ireland, on November 5th, 1824, the anniversary day of the famous Gun- powder plot. He was married on Sep- tember 15th, 1850, and recently cele brated the completion of fifty-seven rs of married life. His entrance into political life is remembered by many of Kingston's present citizens. He was ¢ to the Ontario. legisla- I -------------------------------- WILLIAM ROBINSON. ture in 1870, and was the means of ousting the Sandfield Macdonald gov- ernment, which tried hard to win him over to its side, but failed. His vote with the Macdonald party would have tied the parties in the house. No doubt the conservative party had re collections' of; his stand thirty-seven years ago, when they got into power in 1905, as they relieved him of the office of justice of the peace, which he had filled for forty years, curing which time he never took a cent for his ser- vices in the interesgg of justice. At Sharbot Lake, where he spent his sum- mer for years past, he was often call- ed upon to sit on a case, and no het- ter or fairer justice could be found. After being a political warrior in Kingston for forty years, it is not to be wondered at that he is still keen on the political situation, nd he in- tends to take a hand vin whatever election comes off next year on behali of the good old liberal party. "To ad- mit being a liberal in Kingston fifty years ago was to be termed a rébel by the tories. In those days we had to hold our meetings in secret. We didn't daraglet it be known. to the tories when we would meet for fear of being attacked. We hadn't the same liberty then as we have now," Mr. Robinson said. 'We were gply a handful then, but haven't we grown ? I -would like to be young again just for one more election fight." Twenty-six years ago to-night, Mr. Robinson addressed an Orange soiree at Murvale. He said thaf the 5th of November was noted for three inci- dents : First, the gunpowder plot; sec- ond, the landing of King William III in England; third, his own landing in Ireland. "How do you know you were born that day?" a farmer shouted. "Why, wasn't 1 there !" was Mr. Rob- inson's reply. Mr. Robinson says he cast only one tory vote in his life, and that was when two conservatives were running in Frontenac. "Of two evils, I chose the lesser," he said, "and voted for the better of the two men." Mr. Robinson's many friends, both tories and grits, hope to see him alive or many more years, and able to take a quiet part in election contests. The above excellent likeness was tak- en specially for the Whig, which Mr. Robinson has read for over sixty years. The fur part of the busi- ness has taken a good deal of our enthusiasm, but we no- tice our men friends, judging by comments on dur stock, have a. good deal of enthu- siasm in our hats. They say they are "pretty" and "sen- . sible' and *'moderately pric- ed." Let's hear what you say. . Sects SG Importers of Fine Hats, Cadets Go To Toromto.

Nuptials of Miss Frances Godfrey And Edward Hunter. A pretty event took, place in St. Paul's church, on Wednesday evening, October 30th, when Miss Frances Myr- tle, only daughter of Mrs. Coleman Godfrey, 103 Queen street, was united in marriage to Edwin Hunter, of Cushendall. The ceremony was per- formed by Rev. W. F. Fitzgerald. The bride was attended by her cousin, Miss Ella Kennedy, and the grooms- man was George Hyland. The bride wae dressed in tan colored silk, and {wore a hat to match. The brides- maid was attired in a similar _cos- tume. The bride, who is very popular among her friends, was the recipient of a handsome collection of presents, including a beautiful siyver cabinet from her aunt, Mrs. Haney, of To- ronto, and a parlor suite from her mother. After the ceremony, a reception was held at the bride's home, and at mid- night Mr. and Mrs. Hunter left for their, home in Cushendall, amidst showers of rice and the good wishes of their friends. The groom's gift to the bride was an ameythst bracelet, to the bridesmaid a pearl amethyst pin, and to the groomsman, a pearl stick pin. The host of friends of the newly- married couple extend congratulations. MARINE NEWS. The Items Gathered About the rbour. The schooner Acacia cleared for Os- wego for coal for R. Crawford.

According to reports received in this city by the branch of the Independent Labor party of Ontario, the labor men in London, are not at all discour- aged over the defeat of their candi- date, Mr. Jacobs, in the recent elec- tion there. The party feels that a good showing was made, when the short time they were engaged in the campaign, is considered. "We felt sure of winning," said a Londoner in a letter to a local union man, "but it was a case where we lost in the places where we thought we had the strongest hold." The writer further stated that an effort was being made to increase the membership of this newly organized party up to one thousand, and that candidates: would be nominated for the dominion and federal elections.

Ou Saturday afternoon, while the child's mother was out after a pail of water, the little one's clothing caught fire from the stove. A six- year-old sister gave the alarm after throwing several dippers of water over the chi, but when the mother hur- ried in the child's clothing was a muss of flames. The fire was at once smoth- ered but the injuries were so severe that the child died in terrible agony {on Sunday night at six o'clock. { ---- | The Financier and Bullionist, through its editor, R.

The opening session of the sixteenth annual conference of Queen's Universi- ty Alumni Association was leld in the apologetics room, from four till five o clock, yesterday afternoon. The com- paratively aril attendance was due to the fact that many of the alumni who performed their clerical duties on Sunday had not yet arrived 'in the city. ihe Historical Value of Art" was the subject treated of in an able and comprehensive manner by Professor Cecil Lavell, dean of Queen's faculty of education, whose address left not the slightest doubt in the minds of those present as to the i able value of art in the historical realm. His scholarly address was followed by an ihteresting discussion, in which several of those present took part. The attendance at last evening s ses- sion was by no means confined to the Alumni, but comprised many King- stonians as well as practically alli the theological students who made their presence known through their faculty { yell-- 'Divinity, divinity, faith, hope and charity; divinity, divinity, long- tailed coats and poverty--Amen! So let it be!" : In the absence of the president of the conference, Rev. Dr. MacTavish, of { Toronto, Rev. Principal Gordon oc | cupied the chair, and with a few ap-|! | propriate remarks, called upon Rev. George Jackson, of Toronto, for the address which was to constitute the formal opening of the theological fa- culty for the session '07-'08. Rev. Mr. Jackson's subject was 'The Moral World of St. Paul's Day," and the rapt attention of his hearers attested the merit of the lecturer's content. The interesting discussion which fol- lowed was led by Rev. Dr. Ross and | Rev. Prof. Macnaughton of the theo- { ic culty. [logic] ak this morning Profes- | sor Jordan, who holds the chancel: lor's lectureship, continued the review of Old Testament problems, which he began last year. The first lesson in the present course was on tue relation of Babylon and the Bible, a subject that had been treated on one side in the previous series. In a former lec- ture the professor maintained that it could be proveu from the general movement of Hebrew history and from the nature of the documents, that while. the Israelites were a younger people and dependent upon the an- cient Babylonian civilization, their re- ligion was original and independent. In the present lecture the thesis is that when we enter into details of literary criticism, we come to the same result. The lecturer discussed, along this line, the following subjects : The Origin of the Sabbath; The Creative Narrative in Genesis 1; The Story of Paradige, and the full account of the Flood. A detailed examination of these statements in the Bible show a dependence of some kind on the entire traditions of the Babylonian people. This discovery leads us to modify our views as to the origin and nature of these particular stories, but it does not affect the heart and essence of the Hebrew's faith. It must always remain true that lsrael made a con- tribution to the religious life of the world that is; of highest value and of permanent influence. The truths that God spoke in the old times to the fathers in the prophets remains un- shaken. At twelve o'clock I'rof. J. L. Morri- son, recently installed into the chair of history, delivered a highly instruc- tive aadress upon "Social Responsibi- lities and Church Membership." At the conclusion of the lecture the alumni partook of luncheon in the museum, where many pleasant memories of hy- gone college days were recalled, : This afternoon's session was devoted to the discussion of "The Christology of Ephesians and Colossians," Revs, W. W. Peck, Arnprior; Ferguson Mil- lar, Blakeney and Charles Daly, Al- monte, will be the leaders in the dis- cussion. Even Her Blood Turned to Water. When Dying of Pernicious Anaemia Her Life Was Saved Bv FERROZONE Probably very few cases are on re- cord in which an absolute cure has But Ferrozone did cure Miss Elaine Stanhope--cured her absolutely, her mother, Mrs. G. Stanhope, Rothesay, Ont., says the following : "My daughter complained of feeling tired. She was very pale and listless, and kept losing strength till too weak to attend school. The doctors pre- scribed different bottles of medicine but Elaine kept getting wogse instead of better. She had Anaemia and we were afraid for a while that she might of zone to make any decided improve- ment, but when six boxes were used my daughter was beginning Yo be her old self again. It didn't take much longer to make a complete cure, and I am convinced that there is no better blood-maker than Ferrozone. It has made a new girl of Elaine. She has gained ten pounds in weight and looks | the picture of perfect health. She is| stronger and enjoys the best of spirits.
