M. R. would be sent to the Riding Establishment of the Royal Military College, some to the 77th Battalion at Ottawa as officers' mounts, and the remainder to England, In an interview with the Whig, 4 Col. Clark said that he found the horses of the 8th C. M. R. in excel- lent condition. He explained where they were going to be shipped, and "added that this , distribution would take place in the immediate future, The Canadian militia authorities have purchased over 47,000 horses since the war broke out, +are being used as chargers and for transports, etc. The British Gov- fornment has purchased over 227; 000 horses on this continent since ent none are being secured in Can- ada. Col. Clark said that the prices had been very reasonable and the quality very fair. "How would you like to face one of these things," was the remark on Tthe 8th C. M. R. were given a try- out on the ranges on Tuesday after- noon. The four guns under Lieut. "Jack" Frasér's command were given a thorough work-out to see if they were properly made and in perfect condition for their work at the front. Several hundred-rounds of ammuni- tion were fired, and the guns were found to be in perfect condition and the men very highly trained. CHARM CEYLON TEAS 40c, 50c, 60c; Lb. - Charm Coffee, 40c Lb.

There are recruiting depots in several points in the division, and Kingston has contributed thirty men. "You're next," said Capt. R. B. Richardson to the Whig representa- tive on Tuesday afternoon. The Whig man had been told a number of things to do since going to the camp, | but an ordér to roll up his sleeve to | be inoculated was a new one. The injection does not seem to hurt at all, although Capt. Richardson said the effects are to make the patient feel 'generally on tae rough" for a { day afterwards. | i | HM Pte.

It was stated that men were out in the v rity of the wreck grappling] i for bodies. It is the general belief that the bodies will be floating in the water, and tat they will come] into shore. A close lookout is being Kept for them. ! "If the life boats had been put out they never could have lived in |such a sea as that," "said one island er to the Whig. "It was the worst! wind storm that has occurred in this district in many years. The life boats would have been swamped be- fore they could have been manned." | The story of just what occurred) on the deck of the schooner during the terrible fight with the waves will] never be known, as the captain and! tall on board went down, but it is| théught that the vessel sprang a leak and sank very rapidly. She was very heavily loaded. No wreck in years, has cused such general regret in local marine | circles, as Capt. McDonald, his wife, | and members of the crew were all well-known in the city. { |: Two litt.e white dogs, pets of Mrs | McDonald, also perished in the catas- | {| trophe.
