Sir Thomas is making yet another noble attempt to lift the enp, with all the disadvantages on his side as usual -- the long trip aver the Atlantic for one, not to mention the fact that the Americans are at liberty to build three yachts and select the best, while Sir Thomas can only rely on one.

The Lampman is told that Hiram A. Calvin gave $9,000 to the First Baptist church last year for building purposes and general expenses. The Baptists are lucky in having among their number a man of wealth who is a giver, besides being a devoted wor- shipper. Some churches of the town have wealthy men, but their givings to religious objects are as small as their souls and consciences. If every church in Kingston had a Hiram Cal- vin, it would be a very live institu- tion.
