GROWN WITNESSES no Fire in Toronto Shop Did $25,000 Writ Against Fall Power Co. Toronto, Nov. 26.--No evidence was taken in the London election case this morning. None of the crown witnesses were present, consequently an ad- Journment wpe made until two o'clock afternoon. The Canadian Pacific railway, to- day 'issued a writ against the Falls Power company, of Niagara Is at Welland. A perpetual injunction is ssked for, restraining the defendants from placing poles afl wires op Hei- lens avenue "and. from touching the plaintifis' poles or wires or erect poles and wires* that would interfere witly the property of the plaintifis, or endanger the lives of their employees. A fire broke out -between two and three o'clock, this morning, on the premises of Canadian Neckwear com- pany, Ltd., 40 Scott street, and did 'about $25, dammge. It started in the second floor, among the silks, and this floor was gutted. Water did con- siderable damage to the stock on the floor below and smoke to the stuck on the floor above. All the Christips stock was destroyed. The firm carried $28,000 insurance, It is likely among the legislation to be introduced at the coming session will be an amendment to the truancy act. The necessity of some improve- ment. of the existing act has been hrought to the attention of the educa- tion department by Inspector Fother- ingham, who reports that the present act is inoperative in rural districts. Dr. Seath, aupcrintendent of educa- tion, said, this morning, that the tenancy act was "not worth a row of pins," as it stood, so far as the rural districts were concerned, because, apparently, there was no one to put the law in operation. He considered district to enforce the law. The "enquiry into the loss of the provincial government cruiser Lurline wrecked on some broken crib-work at the entrance to the Goderich harbor, and lost, opened at the parliament buildings, this afternoon. An import- ant, point which arises in connection with the wreck is the degree of re- sponsibility resting on the Dominion government. The Lurline was the pro- party of the previncial gofjernment, while the Dominion government is re- sponsible for the erib-work. If it is found that the crih-work was a dan- ger to navigation, and that Captain Forrest, of the Lurline, was not negli- gent, then the provincial government will .be-in.a position to claim damag- es from the dominion. The "consumption of feed wheat, this vent; will bese large that grain men will ask the government to fix several standards similar to the grade of "hard" and "northern."

MISSIONS IN KOREA. Presbyterian Church to Raise $400,000 For Purpose. New York, Nov. 26.--The board of foréignmissions of the Presbyterian church has just announced an import- ant extension of its work in Korea, and has authorized a special campaign for the raising of almost $400,000, to be used, in addition to the $100,000 regularly appropriated, in carrying forward educational and medical, as well as church undertakings, in the peninsula during the coming year. One feature of the work in Korea, it is stated, isthat the Korean people them- selves' are supporting the established churches and schools, and, in addi- tion, during the past year the native churches raised over $40,000 for educa- tional and home expenses. This show- ing is, regarded by the board as To- markable, in that the Korean wage scale 18 only fifteen cents a day. The hoard declares that the opinion among American missionary boards in general is that Korea, under Japanese occupation, stands in the forefront * of missionary fields. BERESFORD-SCOTT INCIDENT Annomncement Made That it is Regarded As Closed. London, Nov. 20.--Efforts to force an official enquiry into the entire British navy strength, owing to the Beresford-Scott incident, havingtfeil- ed, the announcement is made, on clnimed to be good authority, that the incident is regarded as closed. In- dications ave that pressure has been brought to bear by zealous friends of both = parties concerned, and the re- sult i¢ that neither Beresford not Sir Percy Stott evinced any desire to have the . quarrel re-opened. As the matter stands, the only interpretation of the attitude of the lords of the ad- miralty is that Beresfords reprimand has adequately met the circumstaices of the case. niin --- FARMS WANTED Fo; rience, tute Reliability and oa Ba aes have gained for us an envisble reputation in the Real Estate Business and put us in touch with o long list of prospective buyers.

MORE CAN BE DONE In Reducing the Water Rates Still Further. It is said that there will be some ition in the city councih to the reduction of the water rates, and a motion may be made to give part of the waterworks' surplus to. the streets committee. Such a motion would be snowed under. It is suggested, how- ever, that the waterworks charge $750 for water supply for hydrants, street watering, etc., might be struck out. The waterworks' finances would easily permit that. By striking out this amount all the people would benefit, If that is not done, it is still possible to strike off all the bath charge, in- stead of a portion as recommended by the committee. The rates can be reduced to the extent of $6,000. The proposed reduction is for only $3,800. The sum of $1,500 extra would cover the remaining portion of the bath rates, DIS DE BAR IN ENGLAND.

Last summer there died at Washing- ton a jawyer who for many years had shocked a large number of his friends by his rather liberal views touching religion. A friend of the deceased, who cut short a Canadian trip to hurry back to Washington for the purpose of at- tending the last rites of his colleague, entered the late lawyer's home some minutes after the beginning of the ser. vice. "What part of the service is this?" he enquired ir a whisper of another legal friend standing in the crowded hallway.

Hamburg, Nov. 26.--The captain of the steamer Phoebus, which has ar rived here, reports that in mid-Atlan- tic on November 18th he met with a Dutch fishing schooner which had been abandoned by her crew. Four men of the Phoebus boarded the derelict. Two dogs, the sole occupants of the aban- doned ship, greeted them with howls of joy. Everything on board the schooner still burned in the cabin and the life- boat hung in the davits. Closer in- spection showed that the rddder was broken, and this was thought to be she reason for the flight of her crew. The ship was also damaged in other ways, J apers in her cabin showed at she to Groningen and had 190 tons of fish on boan" : The captain of the F us, con- sidering the distance to land too great to allow of towing the derelict, which lay right in the fairway of Atlantic liners, caused the schooner to be set on fire, in order that she might sink. Nothing whatever has been heard of the missing crew. It is, however, con- jectured that the . derelict may have been the schooner Anna, of Gronin- gen, with which the British steamer Ottoman collided. The Aunna'a crew were taken on board the Ottoman and were landed in Liverpool. FIRST PASSENGER TRAIN Run on G.T.R. Filty-Two Years Ago. Fifty-two years ago, on Nov. 19th, Robert Whiting, of Smith's Falls, a retired railroad engineer, ran the first passenger train on the Grand Trunk railroad between Cornwall and Brock- ville. Just think of it, only fifty-two years ago when the first passenger train was run om the Grand Trunk, where to-day fully a dozen passenger trains run daily between Montreal and Chicago. Mr. Whiting was born in 1829, on the 11th day of January, and will soon be seventy-eight years of a He is still 'hale and hearty. His birthday was on the same day of the month as that of the late Sir John A. Macdonald, and he and the late Canadian premier were great friends. Fifty-two years ago Sir John A. had great visions of a future Canada, and looked forward to the day when the then separated provinces would be united by the iron rails from Halifax t6 Vancouver, hut it is doubtful if he had then any idea That in 1907 there would be one complete line and two more lines well on their way across the vast prairies of the west and the mountains beyond.

Martin writes philosophically about "'Raeiving a Family," in the De- cember number of Harper's Magazine, and Elizabeth Shippen Green has made beautiful paintings of children to illustrate it. These are some of the things he has to say on a subject of eternal interest : "A family, can be raised too much-- so much that it doesn't get a fair chance to grow." "Children have the best chance when there are enough of them to insure a wholesome diffusion of the parental mergies," "The best thing we can leave our children is freedom, and, whether par- ents realize it or not, it is to Jeave their children free that most parents aim. . . . Free from want, or any reasonable fear of it, if we can, though most of . us can't. And if we cannot do that for them we gre the more solicitous to put them in due season in the way of doing it for themselves," "A child that has' been so, rained that it can't conveniently lie, and is {been well started in the direction of right living. One way to promote that disposition is to respect a child's, legi- timate reserves." "The philosophic parent will be wary of expecting too mich gratitude from the young while they are still young, To inculcate in children an undue sense of debt to their par- ents seems a mistake, An op- pressive sense of obligation . . . . may mar the beauty of the rela- on. Pepper Cured Hiccoughs. A new and immediate remedy for hiccoughs was discovered at the Hahnemann hospital, Friday evening, by Dr. Peters, by whom George Mo Clellan was cured of hicconghs, which began two days ago, by means of a pinch ol pepper. McClellan had tried all kinds of rem- edies before coming to the hospital, but without avail. Two hospitals were visited, but the treatment he re- ceived was apparently as little good ax the drugs he had taken at home, He became weaker and weaker and could not eat or sleep. It was in this condition that he ap- peared at the Hahnemann hospital last evening. "Here is something that you never tried," said Dr. Peters. He gave the man a pinch of pepper. The man was Frwadhe fron violently at the time, but managed to Jjuhale the stimulant. Tears came from his eyes as he did, and he sneezed violently. He sneezed again and when he was through sneezing the hiccoughs were gone.-- Philadelphia Inquirer. Work IA The Country. Comber Herald, Workingmen in the country have been scarce.
