Mr. Craig had a few remarks to make about the Saturdav night and Sunday morning work. He said that while he did not believe in sanction- ing the Sunday labor, he believed that when it was a case of necessity, there should be no objection raised. There Was no more harm in it than there was in the running of railways. Rail- ways had to handle perishable goods, and the making of cheese would come under the same heading. It was the people with no experience in the work, who were making the greatest objec- tion. He believed that the matter should he taken up in a practical way and placed before the government; if such action was taken, he felt sure that the dairymen would be given Justice. -------------- he Late Mrs. Holmes. The death occurred, on Thursday evening, at her home, Collins Bay, of Catharine Holmes, widow of the late John Holmes.

The Army has reported the case, stat- ing that none of their members have been engaged on such an errand, and that the man is a "fake." The man has been wearing the uni- form of.an army officer, and in this way he has been able to deceive the public, but now a word to the wise will be sufficient.

Close upon an hour of Magistrate Farrell's time, at the 'police court, this morning, was taken up in secur- ing evidence in the case of two men, fighting on the street. The men charg were John Potter and Alexander Aiken. Potter pleaded he row took place on Ontario street late Tuesday night. After 'the ayidence was concluded Aiken was found guilty of assault, fined $5 and costs, and the case against Potter was dismissed. " Constable Samuel Arniel was called. He said that late Tuesday night he heard a noise in Ontario street, and in company with Constable Hughes, he hurried to the scene. Near the cor- ner of Princess street Potter and Aik- en were engaged ima fight. When witness heard the noise he was stand. ing near the corner of King and Prin- He and Constable Hughes stopped the fight. Constable Hughes corroborated the evidence of Constable Arniel. Edward Johnston, a witness, said that he was on Ontario street, Tues- day night, with Alexander Aiken. Some men on the street had made some remarks to Aiken and the latter replied. . Witness said that Potter best he could. Aiken had been drink- ing. Witness did not see 'Aiken strike Potter. Robert North said that he was with Potter on the night in question. He saw the fight and did his best to have it stopped. He asked John- ston to take Aiken away, but '""John- ston said "No, let the fight go on." Another young man told of having heard Aiken swear at Potter. He also saw Johnston hand Aiken a cane just before the fight started. When called Potter said that Aiken rushed at him and he grabbed hold of Aiken and threw him on the ground. Witness saw Johnston hand Aiken a cane. A second time he had to defend himself against the attack of Aiken. The magistrate found Aiken guilty of assault and fined him $5 and costs, or twenty days. The charge against Potter was dismissed. Both Aiken and Johnston are mem- bers of the battery. Two contractors were summoned, charged with neglecting to secure a permit from the city engineer for mak- ing. alterations to buildings, as re- quired by by-law. As the necessary permits have been taken out the charges were not pressed. The city engineer said many cases of this kind had occurred, and | that these charges had been laid to show the contra hat they must "toe the mark." #Should there be other cases they fo be pushed to the limit, ---- In striking the water rates, accord- ing to assessment, the people living in houses taxed at $2,000 to $4,000 pay the highest figures.
