The pe or of held its apn A nano on Saturday | enoor superintendent's re- port was hy hy wen Nicol and contained this information : : the year ending April 30th, . interments were . or thirty- six less than the previous year, mak- ing a total of 2,537 bodies now in the cemetery. The number removed from the Joults for interment in other grounds w twenty-seven, or nine less than Tt year. The ground sold during the year wad three whole, twelve half, twenty- eight quarters; four, eighth lots and forty-one single graves. This makes a total of 6,600 square feet, as compar- ed with 10,000 feet sold the previous year. There are now 553 lots under perpetdal care. Fifty-one monuments were erected during the past year. A longfelt want has been sypplied by the evection of an office building and fire-proof vault. A ecard index sys o interments has been instal- led is proving very convenient. A number of ges and railings have been removed, making an im- provement in the appearance of the grounds. The superintendent would like if many of the dilapidated railings on some lots were removed and tho This would lessen the labor in keeping these lots in order and also improve ap- pearances. These dirgetors we ected : Mrs. B. W. Robertson, RB. E. Rent, Dr. A. P. 1Chown, H. W. Richardson and W. ¥. Nickle, M.P. The auditors appointed were A. W. Maclean and J. F. Leslie.

Herre minded the con, tion that David nd been away from the court of the Fhe ch of old) were eg on a hill and hence "up 'to the house or; the court of Lord." H people would slways think of the Lord and do their work, no matter how menial the tasks might be, in the Christ -like spirit, Shel work would never cause. them work: In connection With 'the 40th an niversary of the founding of Bethe! Congregational church it was noticed there were in aftendance two mem- bers who were present at the first service, The first service in 1874 was conducted by the late Rey. Pea- @ck in. the old Johpston street school. The congregation then moved to a little frame church on Johnson. street where D. Scott's house now stands. The two members who were no- ticed in the church/on Sunday even- ing were B. W, Robertson and W. Clark, of Earl street RUNAWAY GIRL CANGHT And Returned to o Her Fatjer's Home In Pittsburg. The lourteen-year-old girl, who has heen causing a great deal of trouble, ving run away from her home in Vittsburg, was located on Saturday afternoon. She had been working on Wolfe Island, came to the city on Sat- urday morning, afterwards gomg to the home of the young man who wants to marry her. After several calls by of the Children's home of the peatedly the inspector Aid Society at the young man, it wds re- denied that the girl was there, but she was known to be in the house, so the place was carefully watched, and after a while the young couple were seen to go for a. walk. When found, they were walking arm- in-arm, on a lonely road in Ports- mouth. The girl was at once brought back to the city, the young man pro testing, saying that he was going to marry her. The girl was then turned over to her father. Death of Mrs. M, Simmons. The death occurred at her late home, in Verona, on Sunday afternoon, at 1.1¢ o'clock, of Georgina Jackson, wife of Myers Simmons. The 'deceased was stricken With apoplexy on Friday and death ensued on Sunday. 'I'he late Mrs. Simmons was married forty-sev- en years ago and had resided for the greater part of her life in Verona, spendin; nr years in Kingston. The Soa was a daughter of the late Witham Jackson, of Sydenham. She is survived by one daughter and two sons, Mrs. A. McNaughton, Montreal; Frank, Stirling, N.¥., and Frederick, Toronto. The fuperal will be held from her late home on Tugsday alter noon, to Verona cemetery. Mrs. Sim- mons was ap enthusiastic worker in the Methodist church, a woman of kindly life and her death is much de- plored. Knocked Down by Automobile After the baseball game on Satur- day afternoon just as the people were making their way back from the cricket field an accident occurred on. Bagot street near Gore. An auto- mobile was coursing along the form- er street and at this corner a young man, George Redweond, started to walk across the street just as the Approaching machine was within a few feet of him. Of course he was struck 'down. He was carried to the side of the roadway and tempor- The young man driving the machine stopped and the ladies who were in the ma- man yhere, after an hour or 50 he revived, hav- ing sustained nogserious injury. A Bouquet for Grand Trunk Two ladies travelling from Pitts burgh to the Lake of Bays district, via Huntsville, + Ont., this month, were so pleased with the service they received on the Grand Trunk dig- ing cars that they wrote the su- perintendent of dining cars as fol: lows : "It gives us great pleasure to tes- tify to the excellent service and cour tesy of the ding car conductor on the train which we travelled on to Huntsville, We felt that the long distance fr: Pittsburgh had been made pleasant by. the service on the Grand Trunk line. We also agree that we have never had a better meal in a dining car.' Confirmation at Wolfe Island The confirmation service, Sunday, at Trinity church, Wolfe Island, was very impressive and. be beautiful. The bishop of Kingston, Dr. Bidwell, preached an eloquent. sermon on '"Lhe Power and Work of the Holy Spirit in Ite Church and Members." The-church was fill to the doors, and some were obli to go away for lack of room. e bishop confirmed thirty-nine candi- dates, twenty-five males and fourteen females.

Attended the Sunday The services at the Salvation Army | citadel on Sunday were in keeping with the great loss which {he Salva- tion Army suffered as a result of the sinking of the 8. S. Empress of Ire-| land, = Many members of corps made special references to the great dis- aster which had befallen the army. The big memorial service will be held at the barracks on Sunday af- ternoon, June 7h, when all the m'n- isters of the city will be asked to at- tend. The jnembers of the local corps are wearing a badge of mourning. On Sunday morning Mayer Shaw was present at the Salvation Army citadel and conveyed the sympathy of the city to the members of the army over the loss of so many of the staff, as a redult of the sinking of the Empress. The passing of Major and Mrs. Creighton, who went down with the ill-fated Empress, recalls inciden.s in connection with the early days of the Salvation Army in Kingston. Citizens, who were members of the local corps whem Major Creighton had charge, some twenty-five years ago, can well remember the treat- ment the army officer was given while preaching on the street cor- ners. 'On many occasions stones were thrown at him by spectators. On one oces he was chased into the corner of Queen apd Bagot streets, by an ugly mob who hurled stones through the win- dows. : A member of the local corps, when speaking to the Whig, stated that he could well remember the day that a hotel keeper in Kingstdn turned the hose on Major Creighton while hé was preaching on the street in front of his tavern. The army was not popular here then. To-day it has the support of eyery class and creed. o Chex Carpets Sold Here. The famous Urex carpets, which for some time have been advertised . in our' columns, are being sold in Kings- ton by the T, F. Harrison company; Princess street. This is a special make of carpets, because of their. high qual- ity have enjoyed a very wide sale throughout beth the United States and Canada, and no doubt they will soon become popular in Kingston also.
