Waggon--General Queen's football squad are certainly getting down to work better than they ever have before, and Captain Turner is bound that they will keep in good trim all season. Every after- noon théy are out for practice. They play ball until it gets dusk and then they take a'good run, after which everybody is well looked aiten by the trainess in the gymnasium. Every morning at eight o'closk the bunch are out agaip for another practice and are put through an hour's good, hard work, at signals, kicking and tackling. 'The college boys) are show- ing up better this year than they have in some time, and feel confident that if they keep at work they can make good. They lost the first game in Ottawa last year by a mere fluke and they are bound not to lose this oue, by the same cause. All the players seeny to take a greater interest in the work thig year than they have before for some seasons, and that points in {the right direction. A large number of railbirds are out every afternoon and the team looks good to them. Keeping In Shape. The Kingston long distance-Fanners are all keeping in Sore this weather, to be ready for any races in this dis- trict. There are some good men here and if they are given the proper training they will make good. Sporting Notes. Longhoat won the ten-mile Mava- thon at Lindsay. Ottawa is to have a new athletic {field.

Yesterday afternoon Miss Bertha Myers, of Syracuse, N.Y., ar- rived in town and succeeded in stay- ing ten minutes against the champion. Both girls show striking muscular de- velopment and a thorough knowledge of the holds and twists. Miss Myers is a physieal culture exponent; and wants to meet the champion again to- morrow night, under the same condi- tions as last night's meeting, but Miss Livingstone wants a finish match, which will probably be arranged. Begum iene 3 MOST PITIABLE SIGHT. Man on Crutches Before Court For Drunkenness. A most pitiable sight' was witnessed in the police court, this morning, when Joseph Mack, close upon sixty years, and hobbling along, with the aid of a pair of. crutches, was artgned on a charge of drunkenness. "Yesterday af- ternoon, the police Were notified that Mack was stranded on Brock street, and Constable McAdoo gathered him in. The accused was staggering 'all over the sidewalk, and causing people passing a great deal of trouble. Mack was also accused of begging on the street. He admitted stopping a lady, and asking her for a few cop- {pers, but denied most emphatically, {the charge made that he was under the influence of liquor. | "It's all the faut of my foot," said IMack. "I lost my foot some time (agg, and it is very difficult for me to around. I had three or four | olasses of beer, but I was not drunk." After taking the evidence of Con- stable' McAdoo, the magistrate im- posed a fine of $2 and costs, with the option of fifteen days. Mack stated {that he had been in the hospital at | Belleville | ee emda | FRUIT RUSH ABOUT OVER. | -- Season Oue | get of the Best in Years. "The rush of fruit is about over for this season," er this morning, "but it has been one of the best seasons in years. The crop on the whole, has been very geod, and there hag been no cause for complaint, The fruit has been well handled, and {has met with ready sales." | It is stated that the pear crop this |year was not nearly as good as last {year. In Prince Edward county, where {last year, there was a good crop, this year there is nothing to speak of. All the other fruits showed up remarkably well. The express companies have had a very busy time, with the shipments, both companies here nandling thous- ands of baskets every week, and this with the regular business has made them hustle. However, the fruit rush only lasts a few weeks. A Busy Place. A large number of farmers from all over the surrounding district arrived in the city, this morning, to attend the township fair. The fair grounds was a busy place, this morning, with the men getting their stock in shape for the judges. ial Held Requiem Service. Ottawa, Sept. 24.--The general synod of the 'Church of England in Canada, decided upon a requnem service being held at Christ Church cathedral here, while the funeral service to the late Bishop Carmichael was proceeding in Montreal.

Some months ago, prior to . the local election, Hon. Mr. Harty Was nominated for a further term in the commons. Mr. "Harty was absent from the city at the time, and when lorwarded the nomination promised to consider it at a later date. Now Mr. Harty's health is robust. It wa¥ not such as to in- vite the excitement of a contest in 1904, and it will be remembered that he debated then whether he should go in opposition to his physician's ad- vice on any account. The same is- sue became conspicuous recently when the doctor coumselléd him to seek the quiet of private Kife. Joined to the counsel of the medical advice was that of the family, and the mem- bes for Kingston was inclined to act accordingly. Two contingercies, however, and both" bad the effect of him reconsider the matter. The first was the pressing invitation of the liberals in the city. They were united in urging him to be again their standard bearer. Other candidates might be available, but another was not desired by the party while it was possible to secure him, and the una- nimity with which the party present- ed the request deeply impressed him. Still he felt that 'the personal side of his case could not be ignored. The second incident--and the one which precipitated action--was the report which was telephoned him from Ottawa, and alleged to. be published in a paper there. It was to the effect {that he was dissatisfied 'with the {choice of Charles Murphy, K.C., for {cabinet rank, and meant his retire {ment from political life: ns a "protest against it. A more outrageous as- sumption could not be made, for Mr. Harty has beén one of Mr. Murphy's strongest supporters for cabinet office. The result was that Mr. Harty cepted the nomination, in so doing," not arose, making ac "even though as he writes to the pre- sident of the Liberal Association "I am acting in direct opposition to the of my physician." He added he would be favoured adviee that he hoped with the loyal and vigorous support {which had carried him so often to victory in the past, and that he keen- {ly appreciated the honor the liberals lof Kingston had' conferted in {more selecting him as their standard- bearer. The announcement will give the libe- ral party the greatest satisfaction and the enthusiasm * with is "contemplated once contribute to which the election here. CITY AND VICINITY. * Put On Two Feet Of Stone. On the Queen street road, from Syd- enham to Montreal Streets , a depth of two feet of stone was placed, includ- ing a foundation of rubble, the first to be used on roads this season. That block is very steep and was worn down badly. Waterworks' Tank Emptied. To-day the waterworks tank was emptied, and the interiot of the tank cleaned. This emptying 'is done every year, The usual amount of sediment was found in the tank, and a number of very tiny fish. Nothing of an offen- sive nature was discovered. y Called To Calgary. The congregation of Knox church, Calgary, ha¥ given a unanimous call to Rev. James Shortt, Daysland, to act as associate pastor with Rev. J. A. Clark. Me: of Queen's University. He is a brother of Prof. Shortt, civil service commis- sioner. Transferred To Winnipeg. Capt. W. S. Conger, paymaster of [the Eastern Ontario command, will be attached to the Winnipeg com- mand from Oct. 10th. He has been here for the past two years and will be much missed. His successor will be Major Mack, of Ottawa. t Trouble Ahead. Some of the men who were found guilty of selling liquor at Barriefield camp without a license, have not yet paid their fines, and there is trouble ahead for them _if the fines are not paid. The men who have not paid up do not reside in the city, so it is a difficult matter to serve warrants on them. Secured An Automobile. Con. Millan is the latest Kingston- ian to purchase an autemobile, and he has become the owner of a fine elec- tric runabout. The car arrived this morning and is a beauty, and "Con" will now be the envy of his brother- handsome auto. Get Outside Tenders. Cily Engineer Craig favors the idea of sending Architect Power's plaps and specifications for the mew city dome to steel and reinforced concrete manu- facturers in order to get tenders from them. He thinks that a dome of steel or reinforced concrete could be erected for a few thousand dollars more than the tenders received a few days ago. Objected To Cold Doubt. At the Anglican mission board meet- ing in Ottawa, in response to a query : "Are the laymen paying up » E. J. B. Pense protested agamst a succession of cold doubts being thrown upon the movement from within the communion, along with a lack of Moard and other official encourage: ment of it. The results in the cities, which could be reathed in one short season had been remarkable; every other large place was to be campaign- ed this fall, and the results of increas- es in giving and interest in 1907 would be multiplied in 1908. And the sums pledged would be forthcoming for {men werk giving from the heart © in this rejuvenation of mission spirit. | Repairigs of all kinds, My Vatet, question of ways Shortt is a graduate] hotel-keepers as he speeds along in his ; AGE PENSIONS 3, al a -- Must Have Certain Requirements --The Proof of Eligibility-- How the Applications Will Be Passed On. \ London Advertiser. Arrangements are now din for the application of the ion ol 8 age pension law, which goes into force on' the 1st of January next. 1 These 'arrangements involve the con- | struction of a licated * adminis- trative system, the cost of which will | amount to a vast sum. How the money is to be provided the chancel lor of the exchequer has not yet an- nounced, hor have any of the political hets ventured to guess, but it is rdly likely the government would embark upon such an undertaking without having first considéted the and means. The plan to followed in carrying out the pension law may be thus out- lined : In the first place the applicant for a pension will be required to fill |; up a form which may be procured at any post office. The application must show that the applicant is seventy rs old or 'over; that he has for at least twenty years been a British sub- ject; that his yearly income, earned or otherwise, is less than $155; that he has not within a year received poor law relief, and that he has al- ways worked according to his ability, opportunity and need. If in' this lat- ter respect his record is lacking, he may make good the deficiency by showing that for ten successive years before he reached the age of sixty he has paid dues in a recognized benefit society. He must, moreover, be of law-abiding character, and be able to show that he has not/within ten years been imprisoned without the option of a fine or been convicted of drunkenness. If on these points the legal Yequire- ments are satisfied the applicant will be prima facie entitled to receive a pension of $1.25 per week, provided the annual income of the applicant from all sources is less than $105. A sliding scale determines the amount to be paid if the income sworn to is more than $105 and less than $155. An income of $155 or more debars the applicant from a pension. The application, after being filled up, signed and sworn to, is to be sent to the exciseman of the district, who will act as pension officer, and whose duty it will be to investigate the ap- plicant's statement and vollect proofs as to its veracity. Having completed his enquiries 'the pension officer * for- wabtds the application with either an affirmative, or a negative recommenda- tion to the pensions committee of the local council, * whose allowance for | expenses--they will get nothing else-- it is estimated, will aggregate close on a million dollars a year. Disap- pointed applicants are allowed the right to appeal to the local govern- ment board, whose decision will be final. If the application is approved the applicant will he forwarded a series of coupons, dated a week apart, which, as they successively fall due, will be payable at the local post office. It will thus be seen that every pre-| caution is taken against fraudulent claims, which at the outset, at least, | are pretty sure to be numerous. PERSONAL MENTION.
