The board after its business meet- ing took a trip to the smelter pro- perty to visit the little hospital and seo how things were progressing, RESULTED IN A TIE. and Kingston at Lacrosse. Although the Belleville-Kingston la- crosse game was not advertised, hav- ing been quickly 'arranged, quite a large crowd turned out at the cricket field, on Friday afternoon, to witness the contest, which resulted in a tie, three goals each. The game was by no means a first class exhibition of lacrosse. Owing to the late hour at which the game started, the quarters were only fifteen minutes long. | The teams lined up as follows : Kingston (3)p~Vanhorn, goal; low, point; Lemmon, cover; Pierce, first defense; Dalby, second defense; Huxley, third defense; Porter, centre; Molntyre, third home; Burtch, second home; Fitegibbon, first home; Boyd, outside home; Asselstine, inside home. Belleville (3)--~McKee, goal; - Brown, point; Craig, cover; Wrennick, first de- fense; Evans, second defense: Moore, third hom! . Laman, second home; Ray, fist home; Berry, outside home; D. Elliott (captain). inside home. Refarge, N. ,Patterson, Belleville; judge of pe Edgar Cousing, Kings- ton; time keepers, and Stockdale. At the beginning the teams started in well, but before the quarter was up they seemed to yo to pieces. The ball was thrown all over the field without aim, and instead of saving across the field or to the centre, where often an uncovered man would be, the locals would hold the rubber for a grand- stand rush, and would not pass the ball until a Belleville man got so close to him he could nat pass with any degree of aim. The first quarter ended without any score. Shortly ai- ter the second quarter opened Belle ville started the scoring, when Naylor pushed the rubber in the nets, and in quick order Belleville followed : with two and three, Just before the whis- tle blew to eall the quarter, Porter and Melntyre landed one for the lo- cals, making it three goals to one. In this quarter Porter and Naylor collid- ed, Nel was carrying the ball up the field and in trying to check him Porter's stick came in contact with the Belleville men's head, knocking himi out. A small gash was received on the scalp, but was not enough to stop him from wing. Durin the third quarter no scoring was done by cither side. When the fourth quarter opened up the locals started out to do some- thing and they did it. The quarter was about half over when Porter se cured the first shot. The ball was thrown up the field to him, and he dropped to his knees in front of the nets and poked it in. The next one that (tied the game, was scored by McIntyre on a pass from Porter from behind the nets. For the locals, Porter and McIntyre played the game, and for the Belle villes Naylor, Barry and Craig show- ed up well. Both teams want more practice and to learn to watch where they throw the ball, and not swoop it away down in the park, as was done two or three times. The pre sence of Capt. Leo Singleton was greatly misscd on the locals' line-up! Both Claim Victory. The race on rollers hetween Sergt. Snodden and Constable Mullinger was pulled off yesterday afternoon as ar- ranged, but there is a dispute on as to why is the winner, Both claim the, victory. Constable Mullinger « says that he beat the sergeant bv a lap and a half, but the sergeant states that this is not so. The loser has to put up strawberries and ice cream for the whole force, and the bluetoats are still waiting patiently for the treat. Belleville Lud- Removed To London. The many friends of L. P.

STORY BY A LAWYER OF HOW A JURY GAVE A VERDICT I | On What They Knew of a Gish Themselves, and Not on t Evidence~They Knew the Real Facts, and So Adjudged. A Kingggon lawyer, in giving some of his legal reminiscences, told the following : 1 was called to a village about twenty mileg away to take a case for a farmer who was suing an- other for damages. The case seemed to be one of. interest to the com- munity for the place of trial was crowded. The judge called me over, and said he thought he'd make use of the audience, snd, 'accondingly, he selected a jury from among them, and gave its members the responsibility of giving the decision. Well, the case went on, and many witnesses were examined. When we got half way through, I saw that my client hadn't a ghost of a chance. The evidence was certainly in favor of the defendant. The lawyers addressed the judge, and then the case went to the Jury. I went over to an hotel for lunch, and the judge waited a while to see if the jury would bring in a verdict chortly. While 1 was eatin a man came in and said: "So vou won vour case."' 1 replied that 1 hadn't heard so. "Well," he said, "the jury gave a verdict in favor of your client." When I saw the judee he was as much surprised as 1 was. He couddn't understand it, for his lidgment, had he tried the case himself, would have been against me on the evidence, and he would have been perfectly right in so deciding. In giving their verdict, the jury seemed to have ignored the evidence entirely. Then I came to this conclusion and gave the judge my view. 1 said: These jury men know the real facts of this case better than any of us who have condurted the trial. They know the plaintifi and the defendant and everything about them. The evidence has revealed perhaps only a small portion of the peal facts. The jury men know the real facts, and thev have decided the case, not on the evi. dence, but on the facts And, hence, vou have a verdict that is just and true, simply because it is not founded upon meagre evidence Of cotrse, the jury had no right to find their verdict upon anything out- side the evidence. But, after all, wasn't it better that they should in this case ? DOING GOOD WORK. ---- In the Missionary Field at Tsi Liu Jin. This is one of the newest and most interesting stations in our West China mission weld. RK. 0, Jolliffe is sta- tioned here and is getting a good hold on the work. 'The following brief description of the place came in ga lot- ter from Rev. C. R. Carscallen, who, with Dr. Kilborn, took gu tour of the southern districts last January : Tsi Liy Jin is the centre of the sglt industry®for West China. It is a huge city and with all its ramifications up and down the several valleys it in- cludes, it is estimated, over a million people. Every salt well has its der- rick, and thus, with its thousands of derricks, sticking up like masts on every hand, it looks very much like an oil town at home. 1 will not at- tempt to describe the process of get- ting the silt, only to say that it is hauled up in long bamboo buckets hy means of water buffalo, instead of steam, and is a very interesting pro- cess. In its refinement natural gas is used, which is never turned off but has been burning night and day for centuries. The problems which face the church in Tsi Liu Jin are somewhat different or, perhaps it is better to say, are on a larger scale than those which pre sont themselves in country districts Like mining . towns the world over, where wealth is made rapidly, vice of every form abounds, and it is hard to interest men in those higher interests to which our gospel appeals. Tsi Liu Jin, with its multitudinous population and its many 'accidents in connection with the wells, is, so far as one can see, pre-eminently a place for 4 hozpi- tal, and before long we hope to see one there, Evening Fans, R.

THE MAN WAS SEIZED What the Fol from Mout- on arrived to ' By the Husband of the Woman He Wrote to. A curious episode occurred last evening. It seems that a citizen had written the wile of a young man, asking her to meet him at the post office corner at eight o'clock. The voung woman showed the letter to her husband, and he in turn showed it to the police, There was nothing threatening or suggestive in the epistle and no name was signed. How- ever, the young woman was advised to meet the party. She was at the post offipe corner at the appointed time, last evening, and her husband and a friend were close at hand Finally, she was accosted by the man who wrote the letter. The husband and his friend then came up and seized the man, who was greatly amazed at the turn things had taken He was forced 80. accompany them tq the office of the chief of police, where he made an explanation of his con duct. He said he had written to ac- quajpt the young woman of v some- thing™he had heard concerning her, and which he deemed it right that she should know. The explanation seem- ed satisfactory to all concerned, and the citizen was released from custody This will be a lesson to other men to write billet doux only to spinsters of mature age. PITIFUL PLIGHT Of Cattle on a Common Near . to Union Street. Members of the Humane Society, well as many peopie living near the common, along Union street, are much exercised over the pitiful plight of a number of ' cows te. theredd on the common, and left all day long, through burning sun un- watered, through storms unsheltered. It is felt that this .iate of affairs is due to thoughtlessness rather than cruelty. Cows, if near water, invar iably drink deeply at noon, and the loss in milk flow, from insufficient wa- tering, is very great. Cows when ir ritated or uncomfortable, invariably punish their owners by their milk supply. Some kindly women living near the common carry water, daily, to of the cows, but find it impossible to water those far from them. [It is hop- ed, now that the matter has brought to their notice, that owners will remedy it. as decreasing some been To-Night "Dixie Minstrels."

But the peo rle who constitute the Ds ndy Dixie Minstrels contain a number of men who are real comedians whom nature as well as art make entertainers of genuine merit.
