Of what actual value is the "'pro- hivited str" 'his is a8 question which is very often 'asked. 'There are some who believe that it renders a good service, while thére ure others who believe that its value is not very Teal. ' Although, péchaps, there are cases, like in anythmg else, where the "pro- hibited list" fails in its object, figures go to show that it is helping a great many, Many a man who wants to keep from drinking, regards the "'pro- hibited list" as a great help, and puts himself ou the hist, but, of course; the man who is put on tne list against his will, by relatives, will do hiv best to get liquor, hod at times will man- age to get liquor, but as a general rule, the list keeps him from getting it, 'and, therefore, it can be said to be serving g good purpose. > It is now seven years since the local inspector, C. W! Wright, took over this position, and, to-day, the Whig asked him for some information rela- tive to the list. and how it worked out.

Detroit News Tribune. 2 It's ten to one that the next man we meet doesn't know whether his wife, sister or sweetheart wants to vote or not. He may have discuss- ed equal suffrage with 'any one of them, to be sure; he may have laughed at the antics of the London sisterhood, and may have commend- ed guch innovations as the juvenile court, social centres in schools, the consumers' league, and others, with- out knowing that the American sis- terhood ia largely responsible for them; but ask him to say directly whether he knows how the woman to whom he belongs feels about it as regards herself, and there is but one chance in ten that he knows. Try it and see. Maybe you will have to go farther than yourself for the proof of it. Baseball Record. A National Lea New York, 21; Bos- St. Louis, 4; Chicago, 3.

During the seven years, Mr. Wright has been in this position, 457 nanies have been placed on the list, and at the present time, the roll numbers 107. However, these figures do not, by any { means, represent the number of actual cases, which the inspector has dealt with in that time. It merely takes in fifty per cent. The inspector has his own eonfidintial way of dealing with and very often a kindly letter or a little advice given by him will some poor unfortunate on the rizht track, and it is not necessary that his name should be put down on the 17t One thing that shows up well for the "prohibited list" the number of "repeaters" on thé list, that is men who have served a. term gn the list and who go on [or another.

PUPILS WORK NSPLAYED At Louise School. and Makes 2 Fine Exhibition, All parents should make a see the splendid display of childror's work at Louise school. The Senior Part 1. under the instruction of Mrs. Mabee, have been devoting a portion of 'their time to drawing, shaping in clay, basket' weaving, etc. Mrs. Ma. bee has placed on exhibition a selec tion of the children's work through- out the year, along with examplks in writing and composition. Fhe display at lLoulise school shows designing in crayon of rag carpet and oilcloth patterns, prospective work in the drawing of landscapes, domes- tic scenes. One of the most interest- ing and original features of the dis- play was a practical scheme of teach- ing physical geography to the younger children. It consisted of a shallow box containing elevation high enough to be easily studied by the children, In this was moulded sand to représent a miniature landscape and covered with moss, which gave a practical definition to the many geographical i808. put is point to A. Grant, of Ottawa, made a {terms which at this age the children have to be taught. It illustrates the words river, ocean, mountain, cape, hay, promontory, island, desert, pasis, and many other geographical terms. Not only is it a very instructive les- son but the whole presents the ap- pearance of a beautiful miniature landscape Among the most interesting features of the display is the weather calendar tn which a record of the weather has been kept by means of colored chalk on a calendar form for all the school days of the vear. The room presents a very interesting sight with the walls covered with these specimens of the children's work. » DOMESTIC TROUBLE AIRED. Young Man Accused of Non-Support in Police Court. Magistrate Farrell bad a case of domestic trouble before him, this afternoon, when a younk man was ac cused cof non-support. The case was not concluded at press time. In her evidenve, the wife claimed that there was trouble over a letter her husband had received from a young woman in Belleville, and that later her husband left her. She had learned that the young woman in the 'case was not aware of the fact that she was writing to a married man. She could not produce these letters, She had them hid, but they were stolen and destroyed. She had one child to support, and when. her hus band left her, was compelled to go to work in an hotel, but the wages she received were not sufficient to her. She claimed further, that since her husband had left her, she had seen him arm in arm on the street with another woman. / D. A. Givens on behalf of the accused. : Smashed Basket of Eggs.

RAN INTO THE WATER WITH and the THE INTENTION DROWNING HERSELF. OF DIFFIOULTY IS FOUND A Gigl Living in a Portsmouth Home Was Rescued--She Feared to be Sent Back to Orphanage. The village of Portsmouth was thrown into excitement on A evening by the narrow escape of a drowning. ¢len Piers, had come young orphan gn from The young girl, from: an orphanage at Peterboro a: bout thre: weeks ago, and was liv ing at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J A. Smythe. She was out about the long pier. with some other children, when she suddenly ran into the wa- ter. Neighbors who lived near® by heard the screams 'of the children, and the girl was taken out of the water immediately. As soon as dhe was out she was take with a' "fit end became uticonscious. On Friday morning she was removed to Rock- wood, whare she will be treated for her nerves. The child, whose age thirteen, came to the Portemouth home about three weeks ago, and according to all reports, became very foad of Mrs. Smyth. She did not seem to have bien badly treated at the orphanage, but after a short stay in her mow home greatly dreaded to return. Mrs. Smyth had told her as a means of discipline that if she told a lie she would be sent back. The crisis came about a week ago. She had been to the city and had met a boy who wrote her a card. He wrote again and the second card fell into the hands of Mr. Siythe, who ques tioned the girl closely as to the truth. She denied receiving the post card, but afterwards nea and then, although Mrs. Smyth did not say she would send her back, the child, who had remembered the pen- alty, became very much afraid. She said she would rather die than go back and before any one knew the child, who was very nervous, and excitable, had run into the water with the apparent intention of drown- ing herself, When she on Friday in Securing a Physical Director for " the Y.M.C.A. . fe YMCA. is still without a physical diregtor, though it bas tried a number of places to get a man but so far has not been successful. Some of the directors have been communi- cating with J. J. Thompson, of Pe- terboro, formetly of this city, who informed the directors that he will be unable to come to the local associa- tion on account' of the directors at Peterboro recently increasing his saf- ary, which made it worth his = while staying. One of the directors is now touch with'a man across the whom he hopes "to land." Mr. Shepherd, provincial secretary, was in the city.last week and he sta- ted that there are six plass looking for physical directors. ' Duotone Tr The Late Robert Carson.

Mrs. Smyth is much perplexed to {know what to do. The girl in her present condition is a great care and it might be a sefious matler to send her back to Peterboro. The child was the last one living of a family of ten and was subject to fits of des pondency. She told her playmates that all her family were dead and she might as well die too. Her ner- vous - trouble is being treafdl . at ftockwood. and hope is held out for her recovery. --m---- WOULD VOTE IT. DOWN 1 Question of Union Again Before Methodists, "If the question of church wnion should come before the Methodists a grin 1 have no doubt it would be defeated." In conversation with a representa tive of the Whig a leading Kingston Methodist made this statement, He is a man actively engaged in the work of the church . and is in a position to know the general feeling of the people. th When asked for a reason for the change he pointed out that it would oa account - of the recent vote which was taken and which showed ji that one denomination was not very favorable to the union. On this ac jcount he felt sure that if the vote had to be taken over again union ¥iwould be voted down. © "MecConkey's sweets." Gibson's.
