(CADET INGS WINNER OF MILITARY COLLBGE COUNTRY RACE. CROSS. The Roads Were Bad, But Cadet i Ings Covered the Five and a Half Mile in 27.33 1-5--This Breaks Ex-Cadet Watts' Record. J Fhe annual cross eountry race, which has been the topic of much discussion Pathe Royal Military College for the past. number of days, was pulled off yesterday afternoon, and was won by Cadet E. ings. The air had been damp and cold all day, and this made 1 difficult for the runners to make igood time. At three o'clock the rum- ners, numbering about ningty, lined on top of Barriefield, and "as they stood on the qui vive for the crack of the pistol, they formed an imposing spectacle. Imagine ninety runners in one group starting out on a cross country race. Capt. Blair, who acted as starter, fired the pistol, and the boys were off. The course led from Barriefield alorig the middle road to McGrath's corner, where the runners took the fields, com- ing out on the front road, up over Barriefield hill oppogite the camp grounds, along the front road to Bar- riefield, and finished at the gates of the college. The roads were in poor condition, ae a E. Ings, who hails from British Columbia, made the five and one-half miles in 27.33 1-5, which is exceptionally good time. He was followed close by Ca- Frank Codville, of Ottawa, and next in order came Cadets J. A. Tur ner; Hamilton: LL. F. Cosgrave, To- ronto; B. Hutchinson, Torento: L. Gordon, Toronto; and R. J. Leach, Toranto. 'The boys found the fields very muddy, especially where it had been ploughed lately. However, they managed to wade through it all. "B" company won the team trophy, with 155 points, with "C" company a close second; with 151 points. The officials for the race were: Starter, Capt. Blair; judge at finish, Capt. Kaulbach; timekeeper, Major Shine. Cadet Ings, who won the race, has broken the city championship time of 30.25, established by ex-Cadet Watts, formerly of the R.M.C., but now of Varsity, Mayor Couper has received a cheque for $42.55 from the Gananoque town { treasurer, for the fire service rendered by the Kingston brigade at the re | cent big factory conflagration in Gana- noque. s I Absolutely Pure And when ) made it is the most delicious jeourse of IN MARINE CIRCLES]; STEAMER BELLEVILLE OFF THE DRY DOCK. * The Repairs Were Made in Record Time--The Damage Dole Was Quite Heavy--Moyements of the Vessels, The steamer Belleville cleared from he Kingston dry deck, this morning, shout 9.30 o'clock, after completing repairs, necsspitated from running shore at Grafton, near Cobourg, a wouple of weeks ago. She went into the dry dock last Friday morning, wd completed the repairs in an in- wedibly short time. The damage done was quite heavy, ten frames being broken and five plates stove in. Work was rushed as fast as possible on ber, the men working overtime every day. Are lights were arranged to enable the nen to see at night. i Work was temporarily abandoned on he new vernment boat, while re- »airs were Doing rushed on the Belle ville, but, this morning, the men were mek at work on her, with a pumber of new hands.

Larger Supply on Market, Have you noticed that meat bills have been somewhat lower these days? No doubt you have, but jin case you have not, you had better Jook them over. Prices have taken a slight drop, and to use an old saying, "every, little bit helps." Sirloin steaks, which sold as high as Me, to 2c., can now be hought at from 15¢. to 18¢. Round steak can now be bought at 17c. Lamb is ce- ported te be firm, at 15c., but it has been as high as 20¢. Fresh loin pork is selling at 15¢., and smoked ham at 17¢. These arp only a few of the quot- ations, but just enough to show that there is a decrease in the prices, and this is all good news to the house wife, "What is the cause in the prices?' the butcher, to-day. "The drop is due to the fact that there is a larger supply on the mar- ket," he replied. "Farmers are paying more attention to the raising of hogs and cattle." ', There is a lot of money in it for them. In the past farmers who have been engaged in the busi: ness have made a good deal of money, and now there are more going into it. No doubt the high prices have induced a great many farmers (o pay more at- tention to it. There is for this Whig asked drop a Sneak Thieves at Work, "A young man, employed in an es- tablishment on Princess street, was astonished = upon going into the rear of the store, last evening, to find that some enterprising sneak thief had gained admiftance and had made off with a pair of gloves, which were in his overcoat. He says the thief must have had his nerve right with him, as entrance could only be gained by go- ing in the front lanewny. This shows that the sneak thief is alffays on the job ready to pop up at a moment's notige, where he is least expected. An- other'employee of the same place said there had been numerous thefts dur- the past few months.

CHANCE 4 OF KINGSTON GETTING HYDRO- ELECTRIC POWER, From Ontario's Commission--Hon. Adam Beck Said it Would be Necessary for the Municipalities Here to Combine, : "The outlook for Kingston securing electric power from the Hydro-Electric commission if not very bright at pres- ent," was the statement of Ald. El liott, chairman of the light, heat and power : eommittee, when asked, this morning, concerning the result of the conference which he and Manager Fol- ger had with Hon. Adam Beck and other members of the commission in Toronto, on Tuesday. "l do not say that it is impossible for, Kingston to get power from the commission," said Ald. Elliott, "but to be supplied with power as an indi vidual customer at the present time would be of no advantage, for it would cost probably more to bring the power here than we are paying to manufacture it with coal. "Hon. Mr. Beck received us most cordially. With Mr. Beck were H. P. Southam, chief engineer of the eommis- sion, and R. A. Ross, consulting engi- neer. Mr. Beck outlined the work done by the commission since its inaugura- tion, and then discussed Kingston's chances. He told wus plainly that there was little hope of Kingston re- ceiving cheap power from the commis sion unless it secured the co-operation of nearby towns and villages. He sug- gested that we should get the councils of municipalities immediately east and west to submit to their ratepayers a referendum, as to whether they were in favor of giving their council or light and power committee authority to make a contract with the Hydro-Elec- tric commission for power supply. When this was done, then the commis- sion would be in a better position to arrange for power supply to this sec- tion of the province.
