He asked that such a conference be arfanged before the codneil meeting of | Monday, but the mayor could not do anvthing in the matler. The rats of power is now. passod but the agreement has to be incorpor- ated in a by-law, so that the matter is sill open for discussion. At the commitice meeting last week, it was understood that the company might cancel the agroement at any time id wished. 1Te committee, however, did not want to give a longer term than three years. "The company an agreement will not accept such for a term of three years. We want an option of one five years." Such was the statement made, to- by H. W. Richardson, president of the street vailway, when asked by the Whig, if the a®®on oi the city council last night, in agreeing to supply "power to the company at 1{1.20 for a term of three years, was satisfactory to the company."

"We cannot see our way to do so, but if it were possible, we would be only glad to do so. Nothing would please us move than io give better service.' Mr. Richardson also stated that the company wished to secure power at tho rate mentioned, not only for thie cars, for other work of the com- pany, such as the operating oi the merry-go-round 'at the park. The company's side of the question, = he said, had been given in a letter Mayor Couper for the city mecting, on Monday night, but wa® up, owing to the fact that the council was left without a quorum.

Both Bride and Groom Are King- ston People and Queen's Graduates--They Will Make Their Home 'in Detroit. An extremely pretty. and a quiet wedding ceremony was held, on Wednesday morning, at the home . of Mis. John Mudie, Vaughn Terrace. At the hour of half-past ten; Miss Mar- garet Patton Mudie, youngest daugh- ter of the late John Mudie, K.C., was married to Edward Caird Watson, MA, MD. son of the Rev. John Watson, M.A.,"LL.D., of the chair of philosophy at Queen's University, THe drawing-room, where the cere mony took place, wis most artistjcal- ly adorned with flowers. Beautiful vines trailed over archway, doors and windows and the fireplace was a mass of green, with white and yellow flow- ers springing from the foliage. The bride, who was given away by d very old friend of the family, Richard Waldron (her brother, W. Balfour Mudie, being best man), wore a lovely Ffgown of ivory satin, the skirt box- pleated, the overskirt, in polonaise éi- fect, having its points pearl-trimmed. The fullness was caught at the waist, both front and back, with a large pear] butterfly, and the corsage from the waist-line to the net yoke was fill- ed in with crossed bias folds of the eatin. A fall of lovely old Limerick lace was over each shoulder, and jedged the culls of the softly gathered satin sleeves, which were further trim- med by loopings of pearl. The bridal veil was caught with orange blossoms | to the golden hair, which wad coifed with the utmost simplicity. The bride's bouquet was a theal of white roses, and her ornament a pearl and dia- mond pendant, the gift of the groom. | The bridesmaid, Miss Ethel Waldron, wore an exquisite gown of "orchid mauve crepe de chine, with trimmings of heavy velvet braid, of a darker vhade of the mauve; a very smart hat of the same tone of mauve as, the braid upon the gown, was trimmed with a beautiful osprey. Her bouquet was of Marechel Nicl roses, tied with streamers of yellow satin ribbon reach- ing to the hom of her dress, and her {gift ftom the groom a brooch of pearls in the form of a rose. The wedding breakfast was laid in a dining-room warm and bright with {masses of rowan berites and crimson and yellow dahlias, the work of the same artistes - wno had decked the drawing-room, The breakfast table was lighted with yellow candies. 'lhe guests were few and were confined to close friends of the family. The bride went west with her hus- {band, wearing a navy blue tailored suit of fine brench worsted, with in- visible stripe. With this she wore a pai ticvdarly smart blouse of -delft jblue, and "a hat of dark green velvet and champagne moire, tr ed with jdelit blue wings. She carried away with her some lovely pink roses which [tore good wishes from a city across the border. The gentls bride is one of Queen's cleverest girl gradugtes and the groom is one of her most. brilliant sons, and both have many warm friends=in the city of their birth. very THREW HIMSELF OUT. A Convict Jumped From Prison 3 Window. Henry Bremner, of Toronto, a/ pris- oner at the penitentiary, made an unsuccessful attempt to take hiy life, this morning, in rather a novel man- ner. The man is doing a fifteen-year teem for shooting, with intent, hav- ing secved about five years, He had been cmployed in the tailor shop for some time, and this morning he made tho attempt to ood his lifeo He was seatext near a window and ~without any warning, jumpiéd and plunged head first, landing on a'pile of broken store. The jump for death caused quite a floery of excitement among the other convicts, but it was soon quelled by the guards. When the guards and prisencrs work- ing in the yard went to the spot whers the man struck the stomes, they ox- peetedd to find him a mangled mass of humanity, but he still breathed, and was hurried to the hospital. He suf- ficedd no fracture, only bad cuts. He will likaly recover. WAS GIVEN FOUR YEARS. St. Thomas Young Mail Sentenced For Burglary.

A case which from every appearance looks like un deliberate attempt at suicide, 'occurred in Best's drug store, the clerk, Charles Moxley, alone pre vented the ' man figuring in the case from accomplishing his purpose. to-day," was given the particulars. About nine o'clock, two men, about middle age, walked int store. Fhe clerk, Mr. charge at the "tine, upon them. peared to be 'French, asked for twen- ty-five cents' worth of carbelic acid. Mr. Moxley put up the acid for him, and laid the bottle upon the counter. Sales of carbolic acid must all be re- gisterod in a book, giving the name of the" person making the purchase, and for what purpose reguired. Mr. Moxley was getting his book out to make the necessary report, when he chanced to look up at his customer. and was just in time to see him pid up the bottle and place it to -hig lips, In a second Mr. Moxley, Queen's quar- ter on the football team, was on the other side of the counter, had the bottle away from the m The lat ter tried hard to drink the acid, but Nx. Moxley was too quick for him. In the struggle, some of the acid went on both men, and they suffered slight burns. The man's companion stood by all the time, and made no attempt whatever, to stop him from taking the dose. Mr. Moxley asked him why he had taken the.acid, and he replied, "A doctor in Montreal told me that it would be good for me." This, no doubt, was a 'Take' story. ; The man did not take enough of the acid to do him any great harm, but got enough to burn his throat = to some extent, and he suffered a great deal of pain. His namo was not se- carcd, and he is/not known. After the incident, he and his fricnd made a hasty retreat. All the other drug stores in the city wero at once notified of the case, so that special precautions could be teken against the man securing more acid. However, no other re ports were rewvived about him, At Best's drug store, the book in which all such sales are registered, is kept under the counter, at the frout of the store, and not at the rear, in the office, as in many places, and thig was g good thing, as had Mr, Moxley had to go back to the rear to re gisler the sale, the man would have had ample time to take all the con- tents of the bottle. Just as Mr. Moxley p on the counter, his custoi remark, "that's looks pretty strong." He pulled out the cork, and as Mr. Moxley thought, was about to smell it. However, as Mr. Moxley turned his head for a second, the man grab- bed it off the. counter and lifted it up to his mouth. Thé& bottle of acid at the drug store. This case goes io show how careful a drug clerk must be, and it also shows that a person buying acid in a drug store has a good chance of com- mitting suicide while in the store. It will bo remembered that in Toronto, just a few days ago, a woman walked into a drug store, purchased carbolie acid, and holding it up, said to the clerk, "Do you know what I want this for 7" "No, ' I do not," replied the clerk. "Wall, I want it for this," was the reply, and before the clerk could mone a hand to prevent her, the woman had swallowed the contents of the bottle, and died as a result. both the Holy, was in and he waited the bottle or made the is A CHILD SWALLOWED LYE And Its Throat is Closing--¥ Can't Live.
