At. present, it looks like lic. and 18c. per pound. ) And what is th ennse ? A Every pars of the Geuntry is" complaining ut a sdircity of turkeys, and the Kingston district appears to be no exception to the rule, : A leading grocer informed the Whig, today, that he knew of one farmer, living has seventy. The farmer blames the fox for having destroyed a good many of them, but also states that several died. A few days ago, a report from Ottawa stated that there was a dis pase going the rounds, which was kill: ing off the birds in large numbers. A lady who was on the market to- day, with Suflgs, reluapd Jtioen cents a nd, this was loo upon as n Py pl pric, in view of the bad weather, but the sale could not be made for this price, The woman held off for a betier . Perhaps she got it, and perhaps she did not. There were very few people out looking for turkeys to-day. he oi ol this scarcity, people who have matle up their minds that they will have turkey for Thanksgiv- ing day dinner, had better not look around for something cheap, for they are sure to be disapppinted. it ee rte ASYLUM INMATE WAS SEEN, ------ : But He Has Managed to Keep Well + Under Cover.

On the night he escaped, he was noticed by rome young women and a young man, 'n Widing 'at the far end of Lake On- tatio Park. Afterwards he got into a vard, where a big dog, which has no Jove for strangers, gave him a lively i hase. The people who were watching was gn inmgte of the asylum, but at that timé they did not' know that thers was a man missing, and so they gave no alarm. Later on, when they know that a man i was miming, AL reported to Abe asylum authorities, but hh a thorough search was made for him, he could not be found.

However, as this ig "» a Watterworth, the genial deputy sheri at London, no particular watch is t upon him, and he can go in & out of the penitentiary just as often ps he seas fit. He does not need a guard to watch him, mt it is a case of he, himself requiring to watch the other fellow, The deputy does not boast of his record. 'Indeed, it is not a matter to boast about. It Jooks rather bail, of course, for his home town, to have to bring se many down to the poten: tiary from there, but of course it monet be understeod, that people from all over Middlesex county ave brought to Lowdos. siven their trial, so that every y registered from London, is mot really from London.

The deputy is often token to by [Iriends about the many prisoners he brings down to) Kingston, irom his home city, but he takes it all good- naturedly, and in reply, states that there are no doubt people in other towns and cities, who should come down for a term, but who escape, through the leniency of the courts. Deputy Sheriff Watterworth made his last trip to Kingston, just i few days ago, with 8 man named John Prodger, who was given three yoars, for shooting a woman, with intent to kill, and it was this journey, which markod his 112th trip to the Lime: stone city.

Personal Side of the Case, Montréal Gazette. io Foss, the democratic gandi- date for governor of MussachiiSetts, has a plank in his platiorm which calls for "absolute verifnhity with Canada 'so that trade shall flow as freely and unha between Canada a the United States As between the states of this union." This may make votes for Mr. Foss; he is the best judge of that. As a practical question, however, - the proposition is absurd. Canada not want free trade with the United States, but it does want a branch of the big industry of which Mr. Foss is the head, and the kind of a tariff Mr. Foss does not want will give it to us ooner or later. -------------- A Unique Experience.
