The qualified property owners voted on Monday upon the bridge by-law, and the vote in favour of the bridge purchase was 653 and 108 against it. Small vote, you say. Yes, small in view of the fact that it represents a light percentage of the whole. And yet it was a big vote remembering that there was no very marked agita- tion in support of the bylaw, The proposition was a good ome, and the board of trade and council and citi zens seem have become satisfied that it would carry and left it to its to fate. Well, the good sense of the people has asseried itself, and the first and decisive step has been taken towards the harbour improvements upon which the city and the goverament have de termined.

Thousands of people were present, the attendance equalling that at the lth of July review on the Bois de Boulogne. The greatest enthusiasm was layed over the evolutions of dirigible balloons and eight planes, esoecially when the latter passed a few yards in front of the Stands, The officer pilot was plainly visible as he saluted President Fal- lieries. The review and the %dttoos have done much to knock otit the remnants of anti-militarism which had previous. ly lost much ground since the Agadir affair, but Paris would not he Paris if occult motives were not attributed to M.
