(To the Edi- tor): Young Kingston was, as usual, out in full force at the Band Con- cert last evening, and possibly ow- ing to the absence of the police was unusually boisterous. It is positive- ly disgraceful that children are al- lowed to annoy 'not only those who | £0 to hear the music, but the band as well, Mr. Light has expressed | his disgust on several occasions but! to fio purpose. What must stran- gers think of the manner in which our band K concerts are conducted?! The splendid programme of the R.' C. Hi A. was greatly marred by the uproar of children. It is such con-| duct that keeps Kingston in the pro-, vineial class. How long is it to con-| tinue? Cannot - the Chairman of] Parks do something to stop this nius- agce?---Showpan, To Drive Out the Puttees Ottawa, Aug. 14.--It has been practically decided by the militia au- thorities that the puttees worn by the Canadian soldiers will be done away with. Long boots will be worn instead. Just what type of boot has not been decided as yet. The trouble with the puttee is that in the wet weather it shrinks and bings the leg so tightly as to interfere with the circulation, and in the cold weather the feet are more easily frozen.

About nine o'clock he was taken out of his cell hyphe dep- uty sheriff, who repla the shackles on his feet. A funny incident occurred in the hallway at the station when the sheriff was talking to the prisoner. He happened. to remark; "If I should want to communicate with you what will be your address?"! "Portsmouth penitentiary is suf- ficient, as I have not gotten my number yet," was the reply. The prisoner, who is about forty years of age, is married. ne mams-- : 3 3 BRITISH WHIG TOBACCO FUND.

The Baltic German campaign ap- pears to be at a standstill with the Russians astride the highway be- threatening the communications be- tween the invading armies. The Germans are approaching slightly nearer to Kovno. They are pounding that position with their heavy guns, to which Russian artil- lery is replying effectively. Peas- ants who escaped from the German labor gangs describe the deliberate preparations for the assault on Kov- no, which were begun three months ago. The Germans imported an enormous mass of structural mate- | rials, Dui paved roads from the When the refugees escaped no for- ty-two centimeter guns had arrived, but those of smaller calibre, each requiring three large tractors, were being hauled into position. | -------- ening Arrested For Murder.
