Bus It Will Pay - You To a : TH y DAILY ye HUNDRED SUSPE REMOVED FROM FORT HENRY TO PETAWASVA. Where They Will Be Put to Work Belleville Expects to Have 300 Soldicrs Quartfered There. Exactly ote hundred of the sus- pects confined to Fort Henry were transferred to Petawawa on the; 11.25 €. P. R. train on Thursday morning. At half past ten o'clock the squad of prisondrs, in charge of twenty-five of the 14th guard under Lieut. W. Swaine, were marched ov- er from Barriefield to the, city. The foreigners had previously been sup- plied wiih heavy sheep-skin lined toats, and other items of heavy tlothing. At the vity station they were loaded into two coaches at the front of the train and a guard mounted at each end of the coaches. Each of the guards had a loaded rifle but the quiet demeanor of the foreigners made such a precaution seem almost unnecessary. They are all foreigners of the class that work on the railroads in the summer arid nl fhctories or nowhere in the cities during the winter. The only regret that they seem to have is be- ing deprived of liquor as they can smoke if they have.the money to buy the tobaero, They are being taken to Petawa- wa to build additional camps for the numbers of foreigners who are be- ing hel in Toronto and Montreal, because there is no place to send them. Fort Henry is crowded even with the logs of this hundred and it 's nnlikely that the number who left) '0-day will be brought back. i Major G. H. Gillespie returned on Wednezday from Carleton Place where two new cadet corps have heen astablished. The Board of Educa- fon of that place on Tuesday even- ug held a meeting and invited Ma- ior Gillespie to explain the cadet erps system. The members were 'ery enthusiastic about the plan and mmediately two corps will - be formed. Lieut. G. A. Palmer has sent 2a 'e*ter fe the Board of Education that neets Thursday asking that the nec- cary alterations be made go that the Tellegiate gymnasium can be used as 'n inadecor shooting gallery. The fndents are very anxious to have ifle praétice, but owing to the using * the armouries by the militia, it is myposgible.

By Gertrude Atherton McClelland, Goodchild &Stewart, Toronto, Publishers, Price, $1.25, Mrs. Atherton is conceded to be the ablest woman writer of fiction now living, and so we. may expect anv new hook af herd to be excep- tionally gecd. In the present case we pie not disappointed. Her width of vieion, depth of sympathy and # of consecration are impressed upon the reader. "Perch of the De- vii" is a clever and able book, and the descriptions of Butte, Montana, where the principal scenes are laid, are admirable. Compton, the hero, is a lean, dark, indomitable charac- an idealist, why idealizes mines and o'res, to the neglect of his wife. Mrs. Compien, the chief character in the book and the daugh- ter of a miner and a wash-woman, fxs social ambitions. She discards her western slang and her chewing gum, and takes lessons in deport- went and good English from an emo- ticual New: Englapd professor, whom sha atterwards throws out of the window when he gets too familiar. though poor fellow, there was plenty of provocation, The: real interest of the boek ties in the development of Mes, Compton's mind and character and her struggle with the other wo- men, Ora Blake, for the possession of Gregory Compton, Mrs. Blake, an accomplished woman, undertook the training of Mrs. Compton where the professor left off, and together they spent several 'y in Europe, Mean- while their husband's lived together at Butte. Gregory quickly becoming one ofthe ricest and greatest men in the country. The . women re. turned, and Oro helplessly falls in love with Ida's husband, Gregory. Divorce and a melodramatic struggle ensue and in the end the proprieties trinmph. The mining operations of Butte have cost the author a lot of time and skill, and if one is interest- ed in such technical descriptions, he will find plenty of it in this book, Gregory's mine, from which the title of the volume is derived, proves won- derously rich. The book is a good story, and well worth reading. A Reception In Montreal. Montreal News. Mrs. E. W. LaChance, formerly Miss Ida Prevost, of Kingston, Ont., re ceived for the first time since her mar- riage this afternoon -at 'her home in the Parisian Apartments, 757 Bloom- field avenue, Outremont. The hostess wore her wedding gown of hand em- broidered Egyptian silk, the bodice and tunic being of silk net, edged with pearls with which she wore' a corsage bouquet of American Beauty roses. She was assisted in receiving by her hushand's miother, Mrs. ¥. 'X. La- Chance, who was wearing a blac satin gown draped with princess lace, and by her aunt, Mrs, H. W. Jesmer, who was gowned in pale blue char meuse silk, with tunic and bodice of baby Irish lace. . The decorations in the drawing-room were prettily car- r'ed out with yellow. chrysanthemums.
