Who Died at Glenburnie on Friday the 19th--He Was Born on King Street Over Eighty-Nine years Ago. Michael Fowler, who died at his home in Glenburnie, on Friday even- jing, June 19th, was born in April, 11819, in Kingston, on King street close . to where the British-American hotel stands. His parents were of good Irish stock, who came to Can- ada early in the nineteenth century His father kept a store on King street, and had the lease of the pres- ent court house grounds for pasture Early in the thirties, hi= father bought a farm in Glenburnie, and moved there. Michael, however, did not settle to farm life until some years lator. For five years be sailed on a steamboat, from Toronto to Montreal. He also worked in the dockyard at Navy Bay. In the forties he joined his father at the Glenburnie farm, and from that time till bis Baby's Best for Baby, best for you, Avoid substitutes, o Abert Soaps Lid. Mfrs. Mowireas.

The Carnegie Pension Fund Not, Closed to Queen's--She Can Receive Its Benefits Whenever the Necessary Changes Take Place. Une clusely connected with University says it 1s generally sup- posed that the trustees were about evenly davided upon the question the separation of Queen's University from the church. This, he declares, 1s not so. lhe trustees at their meeting last April, were practically unam- mous that the time for separation had arrived. Un this point there were pers haps only three who dissented, and even they were bound to admit that the situation was serious, leaving the Carnegie pension fund matter out of consideration altogether, The trus- tees, of course, pretenied to first ask the general assembly for its voice. If the trustees were tree to do so, he says that they would at once proceed to take steps to effect the separation of Queen's from the church, for the whole thing resolves itself into a question of finance. 1 Queen's is to keep pace with the other universities, it must have money, and these are critical years. It cannot lag. It was unfortunate, be says, that the Carnegie pension fund was brought into such prominence in connection with the matter, and still. more unfor- tunate that the professors appeared so prominently in the agitation, That made it Yok like a professors' move- ment. The Carnegie fund, he says, will not be closed to Queen's, if constitu tional changes do not take place this year. Queen's can get on the Carnegia pension fund any time, for Mr. Prit- chett, the president of the fund, inti mated so. Andrew Carnegie has des clared that he will 'increase the fund to sixty million dollars if necessity arises Queen's trustees will not meet again until October.

This was the statement made this morning by L. L. Henderson, local manager of the Montreal Transpoftation company, which is the largest concern affected by the blockade. Mr. Henderson ex plained' that the cost of carrying grain by rail from Kingston to Mon- trecal was as large as the rate by water from Fort William to Montreal, and hence only the grain that was due in Montreal for July delivery would be sent on from here. He ex- pected that spme would be moved by rail to-day, The elevator is almost full, being incapable this morning of holding an extra cargo, so that some relief will be necessary Mr. Henderson stated that he had word from Cornwall that the repair to the canal would not occupy nearly as long a time as at first anticipated There was a possibility that i would be locking through night. be extremely confident they are the best talk so much it We would not fit find cessary you can get their style, and we about value fault in ¥ ' thought vou could ALY Put this IRONING TABLE in your Kitchen it is a labor saver.

His farm life extended over sixty years During the Fenian troubles of 1866, Mr. Fowler came to Kingston and drilled a company in the barracks. He was ready for active service if called upon. In religion he was a devout Roman Catholic, for years a member of St. Mary's cathedral, Kingston, and latterly of eo the Church of the Holy Name at Cushendall. 1n politics he was a strong conservative, and one of Sir John A. Macdonald's old friends, the two having lived within a block of each other on King street as boys. The two of his oldest surviving friends of early days are Mrs. Grima- son, of Kingston, and Robert Vair, of Glenburnie. The latter knew him sev- enty-five years ago, in Kingston, and followed his remains to the grave on Sunday, the 21st. Mr. Fowler married Ellen Shortell, who was born in Ireland, and who came here with her parents when she was a girl, Mrs. Fowler, who is eighty-four years of age, is still liv- ing, and in good health. Six sons and one daughter also survive : John, of Kepler, Kingston township; Patrick, of Pittsburg: James, of Mount Ches- ney, Storrington; Thomas, keeper in the penitentiary; Michael, the homestead; Joseph, of Glenburnie, and George Draper, of Glenburnie, Mr. Fowler was a vigorous man in his days.

A store that sells for credit must of necessity add a certain percentagé on every article sold to meet "lad debts." There never was a credit busi nesy that did not incur bad debts. The man who pays cash merchant, giving credit thus pays for he buys and helps pay for what some other person buys. The credit system punishes the cash customer always.
