McCann Brock Cor. King St. REQUIRED FOR-FIRST-CLASS SHOOTING PAY. Not One Man in the 49th Regi- ment Scored in First-Class -- Barriefield's Mail Service Has Always Been the Best. The men in camp made up for lost time on Thursday by working all day Friday; until rain fell near the end of the afternoon. All the units were at work on Friday on different parts of the field. Part of the'9th Artillery Brigade, under Lt.-Col. Rathbun, were down on Barriefield next the bridge for manoeuvres during the afternoon. The infantry regiments were either drilling or at rifle practice on the new ranges. The sub-target guns were also put into use. The members of the 49th Regi- ment shot for their afficiency pay on Friday afternoon and not one man qualified for first-class, entitling Iam to BO cents a day extra. To qualify for fipst-class pay a man must make 2% out of a possible 35; for second- class 21 out of 35, and for third-class 14 out of 35. These scores must be made the first time at the target. When a man goes to shoot, a rifle is handed to him, he sights it and fixes, and the first shot counts on his score.. In that way no sight shots or test shots are allowed the competi- tor as in Other cases. It can be plain- ly_seen that the average is too high, win out of a complete regiment not one man qualified for, pay. All the officers say the percentage is far too high, and it is ridioulous to expect green men to make such a score the first shot. It would be all right for the Bisley team shooters, who might possibly make twenty-eight or thirty, but it is very doubtful Some of the other regiments shot to-day. A great splurge has been made over the new postoffice at Niagara, the first one they ever had, and the peo- ple are running after the delivery wagon like a circus parade, according to all the reports. They really have a postoffice in camp, a real postoffice, in charge of a postmaster, and with a rig to 'deliver mail. Poor old Barrie field is* unfortunately not known to fame. The same delivery has been at Barriefield camp for the past fifteen years, the only difference being that the postmaster-general never used it, and a common wagon was good enough to transport the mails to the diffevent parts of the camp and to the city. The postal service at Bar- riefield this year cannot be equalled by the new outfit at Niagara by anv means, as everything is as handy as one could wish. Lieut.-Col. J. Lyons Biggar arrived | this morning from Niagara camp, oi his way to Ottawa. He dropped off { here to inspect the permanent army service corps in camp, which was done this morning. The men felt the cold very much on Thursday night, and the horses also ' suffered. On Friday morning Col. | Gordon had an extra blanket issued to every man in camp. The medical camps are having a very 'quiet time of it. No serious cases of "illness have been reported and no ac 'cidents 'have happened, that are any- way serious. No military tattoo or band concerts will be held this year at camp. The one last season was successful, but will 'not' be repeated. aa Some day next week the men of the diffrent regiments will have their an- 'nual field day, when sports and races will be run off. |T. J. Thompson is in charge of the affair, and has the dif- ferent units well organized. The signalling class is very large, over forty members attending. The men are quick and are picking up the work , rapidly. The big tent of the Y.M.C.A. is one of the most popular in camp, and ev- |evy evening is well filled with the sol- diers, anxious for a quiet place to read and write and also to listen to the interesting lectures delivered. E. Burke inspect®d the camp ev- Rev. T. lon Friday afternoon, and found erythidg in fine order. ------ The camp is certainly a dry one and is much improved @s a consequence. Not a drop of liquor can be purchased by any one at the camp, and the men are taking to the new rule very well, indeed.

Path Road Stock Question Passcd Over to the November Session | --The County Council Went For An Automobile Ride. | On | 2 council Friday afternoon the county inspected the jail and saw that the place was in am unsanitary | condition. . It was accompanied by W. F. Nickle, M.P.P., representing the | Ontario government, and William ! Newlands, architect. On going into' session immediately afterwards the council, on motion of Councillors Donaldson and Rankin, decided to make the improvements recommended by the architect. Dr. McCarthy reported on patients attended in the House of Providence and City Refuge. Dr. Bo- gart reported as to his attendance upon jail prisoners. Councillor Donaldson reported the county owned $2,000 worth of stock in the Bath toll gate. Last year it paid a dividend of five per cent. Councillor Rankin said that {the road wouldn't payPany dividend this year. He moved, seconded by | Councillor Thomson, that this stoc be transferred to the Kingston town- ship council, provided that tpwnship purchase the Bath Road and free it of tolls, and that a by-law to this effect be passed. Councillor Donaldson opposed the motion, saying that the stock should 'not hurriedly be given away. It {hadn't been shown that the stock , was yet worthless. It was paying five per cent. and was worth 'at least {eighty per cent.. of its par value. | Councillor Foley spoke along the same lines. Counciilor county tnat moved, in amendment, seconded by Councillor Kennedy, that the matter be left over till the November session. "The amendment was carried. R. Meek, secretary-treasurer of the City Refuge, was present at the coun- (cil's request to explain what was wanted in the way of amending the agreement with the city so as to provide for specific attendance of the |county's physician upon the county's poor in that institution. At 4:30 o'clock the warden and councillors left the court house as guests of the members of the King- ston Automobile Club, who took them to see the subway being constructed at Kingston G.T.R. Junction and up Princess street beyond Williamsville, to sce the county's road machinery at work. This machinery cost $1,300, and is operating between the city limits and Cataraqui, this being the first stretch of good roads to be built in Frontenac. The closing session of the county council was held on Saturday morn- ing. The reports of the various com- mittees were adopted. F. Whitney was given the contract of supplving coal and wood for the county buildings for the ensuing year. : A grant of $50 each was made to the fairs of Wolfe Island, Storrington, Arden, Harrowsmith, Kingston and Parham, and one of $25 each to the Farmers' Institutes of North and South Frontenac. On motion of Councillors Foley and Miller, the request of J. B. Walkem. local master of the high court, for an office in the court house, was laid over until the November session. On' motion of 'Councillor Baiden, Caretaker Toner was granted a bonus of $50 as a reward for his efficiency and his economy in the use of fuel in 1908, during which year 'the fuel expenditure was $425 less than in 1907. Trousdale Withdrew 47th's Grant. Councillors Spoor and McGregor mov- ed that owing to the financial condi tion of the county, the matter of granting $200 to the 47th regiment for a 'marquee be reconsidered. The mo tion was carried. Councillors Baiden .and Truscott then moved that no_grant be given to the -47th regiment. This motion was carried. Councillors Miller and Thomson voted against it. . After the passage of this motion it was pointed out that there was a motion on the books giving the regi. ment a grant and another not to give it a grant. Accordingly, to 'set mat ters rights, Councillors Baiden and Truscott moved that the motion to give the 47th a grant be rescinded. Councillor Donaldson, who had just come in, declared it was an insult to the Frontenac regiment to cut off the grant that had been made. It was a reflection on the council and the coun- ty as well. Just now there was great talk of loyalty and liberality, and it would be a shame if the council pass- ed the motion to withdraw the grant It certainly wasn't any ehcouragement to the county's volunteers, he said. Councillor Donaldson called for the yeas and nays on fhe motion wlick carried by 12 to 4 on this division * Yeas--Warden Hamilton and Coun- cillors Kennedy, Spence, Truesdale, Rankin, Truscott, Baiden, Purdy, Me- Gregor, Barr, Foley, Spoor--I12.

Affair Was Most Successful, "In Spite of the Inclement Weather --Fine Programme Rendered by the R.C.H.A. Band. Although the weather man was not at all in their favor, the party Leld} yesterday afternoon and evening by the members of the Women's Aid So- ciety of the Kingston General Hos pital, was a most successful affair, and the appeal put forth by the la- dies who are engaged in such a nobie work," met with a hearty response. "Twas indoed a great pity that the weather was so unfavorable, but nev- ertheless, it was a fine event, and the ladies who earried out the arrange ments, are to be congratulated. It| was the intention. to have all the ta-| bles arrayed out on the beautiful lawn surrounding the" Hodpital, but as the weather ruled otherwise, the Nurses' Home was put into service, and it pro- vided ample accommodation. A couple | of tents were also used, and the wet] weather did not dampen the spirits of the ladies in charge. But for the heavy showers, the attendance in the afternoon, would have been very large. | Some people were of the opinion that | the affair avould be postponed, but as the ladies had completed all the ar-| rangements, they decided to go ahead with it. * > By kind permission of Lieut.-Col. | Burstall, the band of the R.C.H.A.| was present, and. from the cozy little balcony on the Nurses' Home, played t | JOHN L Crown AttoEngy Kingston's ™ 1» most delightful programme of music. At all the tables, a fairly good busi- ness was reported, and all the work- ws appeared to be pleased. There were tables for tea, ice cream, home- nade articles, and candy. Last night it was stated that over $40 had been collected at the gate, and in view of the weather, it was considered to be a good sum. The la- lies who well looked after the business 1t the gate, were Mrs. Go A. McGow- wn and Mrs. W. J. Robinson In the afternoon, members of the| county council put. aside business and | ourneyed over to the hospital srounds, where they: were hospitably mtertained by the members of the so- ety. Following is a list of the convenors sf the different tables : Afternoon tea table, Mrs. H. A. Calvin and Mrs. 'W H.. Macnee; candy table, Mrs. R. Fraser and Mrs, R. Waldron; home nade table, Mrs. W.

Of course, the full financial report of the undertaking could not be secured last night, but it is expected that the la- dies will have a neat sum to place in their treasury, as a result of their ef: forts, and in this way they will be able to help along the good work, which is being carried on by this hos- pital.
