Montreal Group Well in Control of Halifax Railwaye=Unique Giving of Dividend. Toronto, Nov. 20.~T.*A. Rus eral manager of the Rau Moter Car company, says that there is absolutely no foundation for the report that the company will be forced to reduce prices of its motors, as the result of American compeatit- fon.

Davis & Co.; who have promoted several land companies, tendered a dinner at the 8t. Regis Saturday night to the dir- ectors and shareholders of the La- chine Land Co., Ltd. Incorporated six months ago this company has just declared a dividend equal to 200 per cent. on the investment, The dividénd cheques were Kept 2 secret from the shareholders and during the dinner several prize pac- kets were distributed. The cheques happened to bs enclosed in bags of pop-corn, and one gentleman narrow- ly escaped burning his while trying ty pop some of the corn in the bag with a burning match before opening Lachine it. The position of the Montreal syn- dicate now in in control of the Hali- fax Tramway company, is that they own in excess of 75 per cent. of the stock, and like to have an agreement by which they can secure the differ- ence between 75 per cent. and 90 per cent. any time they desire to have the same. Thirty-three per cent. of the holdings were secured from R. B. McCurdy, and company, but at the time the latter stipulated that the shareholders should be given the game opportunity as they had of taking $160 a share for their stock, and ag a result, holders turned in over r' 3 per cent. of the total hold- ings. Among those who accepted the cash offer were a number of the directors of the company who, how- ever, sold only a portion of their holdings, keeping enough to main- tain their positions as directors. It is thought, however, that the latte would turn in the balance of their (stock any time the syndicate may {desire to have it, inasmuch as they solely arp retaining their holdings their with a view ¢f maintaining present positions. The general desire on the part of the shareholders to accept cash waa due to tho fact that they consider a strong effort will be made by the city of Halifax to take over the Tramway and make it' a municipal enterprise.

Rochefort, France, Noy, 21.--Five persons wore killed and three wounded in a revolt which took palee in the prigon here to-day. Prisoners overpowered their guards and shot to death the warden and his wife. An officer and sailor who went to the assitance of the warden were dan- gerously wounded. The revolt occurrad at the supper hour, when several of the prisoners sudenly sprang upon the warden; and, wrenching his revolver from him, shot him through ths head. The warden's wife was killed when she came to the aid of one of the guards. Troops were hurriedly summioned, and "after surrounding the building, drove the mutinous prisoners to the top floor of the prison and killed one of them. The two ringleaders bar- ricaded 'themselves in a cell, which they defended desperately' with & hatchet. They finally committed sul- cide with the warden's revolver. Several of the prisoners suceeded in making their escape during the affray. LIGHTING A RURAL HIGHWAY. Township Councils Asked to Act With Hydro-Electric,. 21.---A movement is on lighting of two and = half miles of roadwiy between the houndaries of Galt and Preston. The Township Councils of Waterloo and North Dumfries will be asked to co-op- erate with the Hydro-Electric Com- mission in the project. The lighting of rural roads is a new departure, and this move will be in the nature of an experiment. The road is traversed by the Galt, Preston and Hespeler Elec- tric railway, and much motor and ve- hicular traffic, as well as being built upto a large extent with good resi- dences, and it is hoped that th scheme will go through. Citizens AM Galt and Preston are also boostinf a" plan for the macadamizing of the road by private subscription and some as- sistance from the government and townships. It looks as if, in the not far distant future, Galt and Preston will _be joined by a roadway bordered with handsome homes and with city facilities, SPRAY FOR A "DYING" MAN, Galt, Nov. foot' for the Proves Doctors Wrong by Leading Grand March. New Rochelle, Nov. 21.--Once pro- nou a hopeless - cripple, Waldorl Miller, paralyzed since he broke his neck diving from the rocks at Hudson Park, July 3rd, 1911, led the grand march at a dance given by the Iro- quois Social Club in his honor. Until a few months ago Miller, who js¥ twenty-one years old, 'was helpless and physicians said he would never re- cover. He gradually regained the use of his arms and handsgnnd then sud- dénly found he could stand on his feet, but could net walk without the aid of two ple. Millet was carried to the dance and sat in his chair. When the grand march started two friends held him as he led the dancers around the hall. TESTING OF TEA.

New York, Nov. 21.--~The Board of (General Appraisers ruled that the se- cretary of the treasury had exceeded his authority in ordering that the so- called Read test be used to determine the purity and quality 'of all tea im- ported into this county. The decision follows an appeal of importers at San Francisco, whose tea consignments had been rejected because they were found to contain coloring matter. The im- porters pretestedaon the ground that the Read fest is not according to the "usages and customs 'of the tea trade," as vequired by the tea act' of 1907, empowering the secretary of the treasury to designate regulations for the inspection and testing of teh.

Correspondence London Telegraph. The Bulgarian army orgamzation is wonderful and goes like clockwork. When driving through the mountains 1 have been frequently astonished to see long lines of ox-carts heavily laden with army stores slowly plodding along, and wondered how sueh primi tive transport could be adequate to a modern army. : The neediul explanation was afiord ed me at Kostendil, where I have had occasion to see one of those commis sariats in full operation. All the bx carts in the adjoining departments had been requisitioned to the number of 1,000. They were then divided into five sections of 200 carts each. The drivers, with their whips, as trakhan or ordinary sheep wool caps and long sheepskin or goat hair coats, loo picturesque beside thes tied small Greek oxen or African buffaloes. Every day 200 carts were laden; and they start away at a slow pace, the driver walking before his team, hum- ming an air or smoking a cigarette He thus trudges up and down the mountain roads for a distance of fif- teen kilometers, or nine and a half miles, which is one day's march, Then he lights a fire for himself at the roadside, has a warm meal, feeds his oxen or buffaloes and lies down to sleep on straw near the cart or in a harm if a farmhouse is near. Next day he covers another nine or ten miles. Half his food is taken into horse-drawn carts, which carry it more rapidly to the nearest fighting troops perhaps twenty miles away. The teamster them returns, taking two days, as he had on the outward trip, and on the fifth day rests while his cart is being reloaded. Only bread was thus transpocted from Kostendil. It was in good, round, appetizing loaves weighing two pounds, of hall:wheat,. half rye, bread. which remains soft and palatable for fifteen days. 1 had partaken of it myself, as po other was av ailable. The entire population lives on this bread now. No one thinks of baking any other during time of war. Life in these places is now entirely absorbed by the war. Two-thirds of the shops are shut and the owners are carrying rifles and wearing uni forms. All bakeries ~ have been re quisitioned for the army and are now baking army bread day and night. Women and children are helping. Schoolboys and students wear neat uniforms and help where they can. The students are clerks at the railway stations or public offices and act as rolice and constables. On leaving my hotel I saw a young student scarcely more than fifteen, in uniform, drag- ging a long sabre by his side.

"The Bohemian Girl," revised and modernized, was produced at the Grand last night by the Aborn Opera company before the largest audience of the season. Spectacular addit- ions, such as introduction ot horses, poultry, a tiny pig and family of Arabian acrobats, have made more popular than ever this opera which has occupied (he boards for seventy years, With all the scenic introductions, the grand op era dramatic effects are retained. The singing parts are in excellent hands. James Btevens, as "Count Arnheim," displayed a magnificent baritone voice; Roy Pilcher as "Tud- deus," is a sweet tenor, and Joseph Florian as "Devilshoof" has an ef- fective bass voice. Blanche Morris on, "the Bohemian Girl," (soprano) and Claudia Albright as "the Queen of the Gypsies' (contralto) sang well. The chorus was well balanced. The street fair scene was decided- ly realistic, and the acrobatic. work of the Arab family evoked"great ap- planse. The "Dancing of the Hours" in the third act was splendid. The whole production was good, and as presented in this more popular and spectacular form it was appreciated by many who dodge grand opera as something beyond their power of ap- preciation. he the "Dion O'Dare."
