London, April 20.--A little cere- mony not without its moving ele- ment dnd of historic interest in Can- ada took place at Westminster Abbey yesterday. At mid-day as the organ was playing *'O God Our Help In Ages Past," and as the little company of the faithful who - as- semble daily to intereced for those fighting their countries battles were about to disperse a'smal party of Canadian soldiers marched through the grey cloisters, particularly cool and pleasant even in the noonday sun, at this early period spring They were officers and men of the Twenty-second Jattery, Field Artillery from Kingston, On- tario, who, had to come to West minster Abbey to deposit with the dean and chapter for safe keeping "until the war is over the colors pre sented to them by 'Veterans and citizens of Kingston." The officers present were W. R. Riordan, Capt. C. P Lieut, G. T. Cassels and Lieut. MacAulay. The colors were the charge of Sergt. Dixon. men representative of the battery compriséd the rest of the party. On arrival in the nave of the Abbey the colors were unfurled and the pro- cession reformed The Dean of Westminster, Dr. Ryle, preceded by his mace-bearer, was at the head, followed by the officers and men and less than half a dozen others, all Canadians, including Major In- graham, Twenty-fourth Battery, Captain W.

Officers and men and bystanders united with him in the great prayer Christendom. Kneeling - on one knee an officer then handed the col: ors to the dean who laid thém rev- rently upon the holy table. A few moments later the short but intense- impressive ceremony was over. Dean Ryle upon leaving the chapel, yssured thie officers and men that the olors Would remain safe in their dig- nified keeping, until they returned to claim them. A photograph of the participants was afterwards taken on the steps of the Cloister entrance. The Dean then conducted the party through parts of the Abbey. It was particularly appropriate that he should point out in the chamber how Henry IV died there he was setting forth for the crusades.

SPEED BOAT FOR MILLIONAIRE To Enter Kingston Races On The 3rd Of June. { A Lindsay despatch says : The largest speed boat ever in Lindsay, in fact one of the larg- lest (if not the largest) speed boats {ever built in Ontario, is on the skids at the Jesse Perrin boat works, Ri | donut street, here. It is being for a millionaire who summers on the St. Lawrence in the vicinity of King- {ston, and when fully complete equipped will be worth $4,500. The boat is being built in the Perrin - Works ' by the Canadian | Beaver Co., Toronto, and is of solid | mahogany. beantifgl in every respect and when decorated she will be a very hand: { some craft. The boat is thirty-five built V.! feet over all and six feet three inches beam. She will be equipped with a | 220 horse-power engine, capable of | propelling the boat at a guaranteed | spread of forty miles an hour. When | travelling at this rate five feet of | | her long nose will be out of the wa- | ter. + The contract calls for the boat to be ready and complete by May lst | and it is expected she will be in fine trim for the annual regatta at King- | ston on June 3rd. "LANTIC"" SUGARS, Splendid New Plant Just Completed At St. John N. B. St. John, N.B., has the distinction of securing the largest and most important industry which has locat- | ed in Canada for some months, The Atlantic Sugar Refineries, which commenced operations a few days] ago, has been two years under con-| struction. The plant is located on the water front, to receive its raw material ocean-going vessels and the finished product either by rail or water to all parts of the country. These factors, combined with im- proved machinery and labor saving | devices, will enable the company to manufacture a higher grade sugar] without consumer. The plant, which is the very latest in sugar manufacturing concerns, has a capacity of one mil- lion pounds per day, while the out- put will go out to the consume: known as "Lantic" Sugars. The di-| rectors have made a special study of requirements of the trade and of the consuming public and believe that they will be better able to sat- isfy the demands of the public than CITY BASEB!

"Tom" Riley was one of the best | known and most respected | railroad | men in his home town. It was while on a spree he made his way to Lon- | don, where he committed the crime.
