The new bell for the city hall clock was successfully raised to the belfry of the dome this morning and the "Faising" was witnessed by a large crowd. The bell was carted from the G.T.R. freight sheds to the rear of the city buildings shortly - after nine o'clock and preparations were at once made to hoist it into the place where it will ring out the hour the citizens of Kingston. It was ma nufactured by the MeShane Bell foun dry company, of Baltimore, Md., and weighs 2,100 pounds. Its tone is said to be deep and mellow. The dompany's 'representative was in charge of the hoisting, and was sisted by employees of Contractor McFarlane, who built the dome. There was much speculation among the crowd as to the chances of the bell breaking loose from its tackle, and some of the city officials preferred to be on the outside of the building as . while the raising was in progress [ov | fear the huge bell would go through the roof. The tackle used was sup- plied hy. the Donpelly Wrecking com- pany. It was half-past eleven o'clock be- fore the bell reached the first plat- form of the scaffording, on a level with the base of the dome. The first winch used was found too light and a heavier one had to be secured. UPSETS IN HARBOR. The Treacherous Canoes Again in Evidence.

The bill hb year, in Premier Asquith's refusal to allow the host to be carried in the public procession that brought the Roman Catholic Encharistic Congress to a close. Premier Asquith spoke early in the debate and gave his cor ! dial support to the objects of the bill. He declared the exclusion of Roman Catholics from the lord chancellorship of Great Britain and the lord lieuten- ancy of Ireland was unjustifiable, or the grounds of either logic or policy. Regarding the outh of accession, the mover said this declaration was dated during the worst period of British his tory, and the time had come to put an end to it. As the bill is not a government measure, there is little of finding tifne to pass it into law at the present session. The fact that a majority of the House of Commons voted in favor of the mea- sure, however, is regarded as a great victory for the Catholics. Although similar hills have been debated on many previous occasions, this is the first time one has passed its second reading.

Spence, THE HOUSE FLY Fighting to Rid the House of His Presence. ee With the return of the warm weath- er, again revives the hum of the house fly, and the question of what to do with him. There was a time when it was taught that for the proper purification of the air, it was necessary that there should be as large a number of flies around as possible. Now it is positively known that the common house fly is a rather dangerous little animal, par ticularly in his role as a distributor of dangerous diseases, Its habits are essentially filthy. It breeds in stables and garbage pails, and carries the filth it revels in and the tracks of it across sugar and butter and beei- steak, and brings with it the possibili- ties of typhoid fever and cholera in fantum and other maladies. It pad: dles its feet, gummed with the vilest rotting matter conceivable, over the smowy table cloth, the food and uten ils in the kitchen; and through the baby's milk. There is a sure and efiegtive method of dealing with the ordinary house fly, The remedy lies not with the screen door, so much as with the clean yard. That is the place to begin the strife. The absence of a suitable -place fo flies to breed will go further to as sure their scarcity than anything else Keep the yard around the house abso lutely clean and sweet, and there wil be a very marked scarcity of flies. Re move every trace of garbage, of decay ing. matter, and see that corners arc kept clean. Around the barns, if ma nure is allowed to fie no more than a week in any place, there is little dan ger of flies breeding in it. By taking a few precautions, the flies will not probably be exterminated, but their numbers will be greatly lessened, un til'they vease to annoy, and with or dinary plecautions, the danger of their contaminating food and household generally with the unspeakable filtl which they carry with them, will be obviated. Cleanliness appears to stand closer in rank to godliness the longs one looks at it. It will soon be con- sidered to be no mark of cleanliness, to observe the atmosphere around the residence or barny swarming with the filthy little fly. G.T. R. PUSHING WHEAT. Fast Grain Line From Sarnia tc Montreal. The Grand Trunk at the present time is rushing wheat through Lon: don, Ont., at the rate of more thar three hundred thousand bushels a day and have five special trains engaged in the fast grain line service between Sar nia and Montreal. Every train thai goes through in the wheat specials made up of sixty cars of the "600" class, the fastest fréight engine in the service. They can pull their sixty cart along at #n average speed of thirty- five miles an hour. A recent regula- tion prohibits more than sixty cars being attached to a train, as it has been found that numerous accidents oc- cur as a result of the draw bars pull- ing out. The big engines can, it it stated, haul eighty-five to ninety cars. The Grand Trunk is making a special effort in handling the Great Lake grain trade to beat the roads that haul into New York and that they are succeed: ing is shown by the constantly-in- creasing shipments.
