MACDONALD, The Funeral Took Place on Tuesday Morning. The funeral of the late Miss Anna MacDonald took place from the Hotel Dieu Hospital to St. Mary's Cathe- dral on Tuesday morning. A solemn requiem mass was sung by Rev. Fa- ther Michael MacDonald, brother of deceased, assisted by Rev. Father Hanley as deacon and Rev. Father || McNeill as'sub-deacon, for the happy repose of her soul. Amongst the congregation present were noticed many old friends of the deceased, friends who justly esteemed the gen- tle, self-sacrificing and unobtrusive character of the departed. Following the chanting of the Li- bera, the cortege, which was of -a private nature, re-formed and pro- ceeded to St. Mary's cemetery, where the last blessing was pronounced and the last absolution given over the re- mains. The sorrowing mother and sister, Miss Minnie, accompanied the remains to the cemetery. The pallbearers, intimate friends of the deceased, were Messrs. Joseph' Doyle, Frank Conway, Dr. Leonard Walsh and Dr. Ferguson Doyle. The mourners included Frances E. Ba- ker and son and Dr. J. T. Davis. In deference to the wishes of the de- ceased, floral offerings were omitted and the more efficacious spiritual of- ferings given instead. Amongst the numerous offerings may be men- tioned that sent by the Sisters of the Notre Dame Convent, in which aca- demy the deceased was educated. Wolfe Island Fair.

Impressed With War Inventions A letter received from England states that Lieut.-Col. W. 8. Hughes, commanding officer of the 21st Bat- talion, was deeply impressed with a demonstration of inventions which he was given..

The Weather, is Growing Wet And Cold--Major Duval, a Field Am- bulance Officer, Dead--Baseball League in the Canadian Division. | 8. 8. Corbett, undertaker, Prin- |cess Street, has received a letter | |from Capt. A. D. McConnell, No. 1 { Canadian Field Ambulance, now in | France, which contains the following | interesting comments i { "We are having a rather quiet { time here now, and are in the same place we have heen in since we: moved from the Givenchy region. We |are expecting some move, but have not the slightest idea where it may be. ! "The weather here is getting more | and more like it was last winter on | | Salisbury Plain, wet and cold. How- | ever, our experience of last winter | has prepared us somewhat for what | may be to come. War, we are told, | is never pleasant, and we are pleased | when the weather is the worst fea- ture of it, as it is now. We have had some hard times, but have come through pretty well, | "At present No. 1 Field Ambu- lance is rather blue, as we have just | got word that Major Duval, one of our officers, who was wounded at | Ypres, has just died. He was my {tent-mate for a long time. We all {liked him very much. We came to face just such things as this, but | when it comes right home to us, to |our own corps, it does seem hard. "We, who are from Kingston, are | very pleased to hear any news from there. You would be surprised to see how we all follow what is going on in Kingston. We fully realize that the war is not by any means all fought here, but how much you peo- ple 'Behind the guns' are doing to make' it possible and easy. for us to be here. { "Ypu will be interested to know jot the baseball league here in the | { Canadian Division. It is divided | into two sections, the winners of | each section to play for the final de- | cision. No. 1 Field Ambulance has played six, won six games, and has {two to play. They fully expect to | win th2 next two. Then they will {be one of the two teams in the {Dnals. That is not too bad a show- {ing 'for a small corps like an ambu- { lance, is it? | "You asked if there could be any- | thing you people could send us. | cannot think of anything better than {copies of the Whig. and Standard. { There are some of both coming in row, but they are worn out bafu.e they get round the crowd. Indeed, the folks at home seem wonderful in the way they think of our lads here. It certainly shows they are not for- | | gotten. You may be sure that th | lads here are not forgetting. I wis} you could be along side some of the | bivouacs at night to hear the dis- | cussions about the Limestone City. "Our ambulance is still serving | the trenches, as we have been steadi- | ly for two months. We have an advanced dressing station, where the | patients come from the aid posts | | Which are immediately behind the | | trenches. Each battalion has its | aid post, and we have bearers at each | | with wheeled stretchers ready to | | bring in any casualties to the advanc- | {ed dressing station, where they are | {met with motor ambulances and! | brought to our main dressing sta- | tion. From there they are taken by motor ambulance convoys to the | clearing hospitals. This sounds cumbersome, I know, but it is real- ly a wonderful system, and has prov- ed itself the best way of handling the wounded and sick that there ever has been in any war. The old. methods would never have begun tp cope with the demands in some of the actions | we have sen. One can easily say | that hundreds owe their lives to the immediate and thorough attention they were able to get." FEEPR LEP ERR PREP IPRS MrT | * : i * J | THE BUSY HOUSEWIFE. + What to cook and what to serve is often a vexatious ques- tion to the busy housewife. Variety is essential, but oftimes the pressure of ' other duties leaves little time for thought- ful preparation. To: hep out along this line, and also to off- er many new ideas, has prompt- ed the Whig to publish a Daily Menu. Read it to-day and ev- ery day on page four. Full menus for each meal are giv- én, as well as details concern- ing the preparation cof each. These artiglps have proved: very helpfwl- wherever publish- ed, and the Whig heartily commends this new; feature to % its women readers.

This is a question Magistrate Far: rell has put to him almost every day in the Police Court now. Men gath- ered in for drunkenness grasp at this as a drowning man would a straw.

Tell your boys and girls to turn to page four to-night and read the new feature the Whig has secured especially for them + --*'Sleepytime Tales." These are just .the sort of bedtime stories ail children delight in. They are interesting, whole- some, and instructive. The Whig hopes that its boy and girl readers will not miss any of these delightful tales. i No Gas Supply | in Seme Parts Of the City From eeven o'clock this morn-| ing until Friday evening the} people living beyond Alfred street and north of Queed street will} be without a supply of gas for cook- ing and lighting. It has been found | necessary to make some repairs tej the machinery of the big gas tank| which has been in use for ten years morning, two fire engines being used 0 pump out the water. | It is unfortunate that people who cook with gas only should be caught during a fruit and vegetable preser- had to effect the repairs as soon as the trouble was discovered. Every consumer affected was notified Mon- day about the cut-off, and asked to make provision for heat and light for a few days. Received a Bad Fracture. John Arden, the boy who was struck on Princess street by an auto- mobile, Monday aftermoon, received a very bad compound fracture of his left leg. The bone was thrust through the flesh. The injured lad's father is at present with the Canad- ian forces in France, and his moth- er is in England. + -------------- C.M.BA.
