Harrison Co., as far up as Clergy street, then do the block en Clergy® street between Brock and Princess, and then proceed to Queen street and macadamize that thoroughfare to King street. The steam roller will not do quite as good work on Brock street as it has done on Bagot street, because of the uphill work it will have. It may not be able to give as smooth a surface, as. there will be a certain amount of drag in pushing up grade. However, the best possible will be done. No one block on Bagot street cost nearly the same. The cricket field stretch was the most expensive, as more macadam had to be used, and the road had to-be tiled. The cost on the other blocks varied, according to the amount of drainage and depth of macadam required. The chief thing in constructing these roads is to first get good drainage. Without the means of clearing the roads of- water there would always be puddles, and the roads would soon wear away. The city engineer has not yet been able to get a practical man to can- vass the business section on the per- manent road/ paving question, and will have to send around petitions with an ordinary canvasser. He is doubtful of any road having being done this vear. The engineer is still of the opinion that the only wav to get 'the paving started is to pick out an area of 10,000 square feet and for the city council, by a two-thirds vote, to decide that such an area shall be paved under the local improvement plan. Such an amount could be done cheaper than a few blocks, as tenders could be called for the construction of diffefent pavements. B. A. Hotel Arrivals. Charles b. Corey, E. J. Kingsley, J. A.

SHED BE ERECTED. ---- Waterworks' Committee Holls to Its Former Report--A Special | Meeting of the City Council For Friday Evening. The waterworks committee had a meeting yesterday afternocn and de- cided to again recommend to the city council that the burned coal shed at the waterworks wharf be replaced with one of concrete. At the last regular meeting of the council, despite ibe protests of Alderman Craig, chairman, the matter was referred back to the committee for reconsideration. Some of the aldermen feared that the coal might explode in an open consrete shed, while others didn't think a shed was necessary at all, when there was a small wharf to hold the coal, and if the wharf couldn't hold it all, there was lots of room just beyond, that is to say, at the bottom of the water, the harbor being city property for a distance of half a mile out, so that the coal would still be in the city even if twenty feet below the surface of the water. These seemed to he the two chief arguments which warranted the referring back of the report re commending the erection of a con- crete roofless shed. Ald. Craig gently but forcibly re minded the aldermen that his com- mittee had gone thoroughly into the matter, and was acting on the advice of Superintendent Hewitt as well. Furthermore, it had the opinions of soveral leading coal dealers, who were in accord with the committee's re- commendation. But the '"'experts" of the city council decided that the com- mittee must consider the matter again. The result has simply meant three weeks delay, as the committee has nothing better to offer than it of- fered hefore. * It decided to recommend that a concrete shed 65 x 56 feet bo erected, without roof. The cost will be under 2,300. Of this amount the commitee has about $1,000 insurance monev for the shed destroyed by fire. A roof can be added to the building at any time. Those present at the meetne were Aldermen Crair, Chown and Couper. A special meetint of the council will be called for Friday evening to again consider the report, as it is very es- sential that the shed be erected at once. LOCAL SPORT MATTERS.

"But you peelirs have had no prac: tice," was suggested to the kal cap- tain. "We don't need any practice," In- spector Arpiel said. "What do you think we are ? Do you think we re go- ing to throw our arms out in practis- ing? Nit much. Well practise on these postollice fellows and beat them so badly that they'll not dare to challenge us again.

Archibald Mcintosh, B.D., who has just returned to Minden, after an ab- sence of several years, gaie the Igl- lowing sketch of his life since he left the old home nest, to the Minden Echo ; After graduating B.A. at Queen's, Bingstcn, Ont, 1901, he took a three years' epurse at Aberdeen Uni-| versity, dceotland;, graduating B.D. in March, 1904,; The same year he was offered and accepted a professorship in India, in the General Assemply's College of the Church of Scotland, now Calcutta Christian College fcund- ed about cighty years ago, vecing the first institution for high education in India. Here he filled the chair of poli- tical economy in English fod itwo years. In April, 1906, he was request- ed to go to Madras, India, to relieve the principal of the Church of Scot- land there. The term at' 'Calcutta be- ing closed, he went to Madras, enter: ing upcn the duties of principal, thus allowing tle president to go to Scot- land for a year's furlough. Before the year had expired the committee at Edinburgh requested him to continue a second pear, which he did, at the home, he declined any further ap- pointments. In Madras. there were 42 teachers 650 students in attendance at the col- lege, and in 'the 'high school, which is in affiliation with, the college. Mr. McIntosh says the best Brahim stu- dents are as clever as the best Eng- lish or European students, and that the B.A. degree, which the students take in India is as difficult as the same degree in Canadian or European universities, except that in English mathematics and science, the examina- tion is often more difficult. Another thing that strikes us as a surprise is the Bact that a'l students must fully understand the English language Le- fore they are admitted to the college course. The actual teaching term is eight months in the college, while in the lower schoolsthe term is akout equal to ours in schools of the same grade.

When the market extension was burned, in 1865, a place bad to be found for the much- missed clock and bell, and the city hall dome was resorted to. Four clock faces were cut in its sides and the bell aupola was placed on top. That is all the "building of the dome" that was done in 18656.
