KINGSTON WLLL HAVE ONLY THREE BATTERIES QUAR-! TERED FOR WINTER. | So thie Minister of Militia Told the Whig--*"That is All You Are Going | To Get," He Continued, The Minister of Militia showed the soldiers at Barriefield Camp on Wed nesday morning that he know when soldiers are ready for the front and if they are not ready at a certain time who is to blame. He sees every thing that is going on, and if neces | sary criticizes the most minute de- tail. Major-General Sir Sam does not like formality, He cares not a fig for carefully planned out arrange ments, for, as he said, at the front movements cannot be carefully | MAJ-GEN. SiR SAM HUGHES { planned out two or three days in ad- vance, For years and years the marches past at Barriefield Camp have been held on the western parade ground and the inspecting party took up a position under a huge Union Jack at the centre of the west side, Tues- day morning the ground was very muddy and the clouds above prédict- ed a generous rain at any time. The Minister of Militia as usual d°d the unusual. He reversed the whole plan for the march past. He took a position at the south side of the | field near the Ganancque read and | had the troops drawn up before him | there. Afterwards he rode to the | centre of the field and ordered diffi- | eult movements performed. Instead {of acting as an inspecting officer he | gave orders for a variety of move- | ments, all on the double and when, {as he told the Whig later, the sol- | diers did splendidly it is indeed a The soldiers at Bar- riefield Camp or anywhere for that matter never received such a grilling, inspection. By the methed adopted by the Minister, every man and every officer on parade had to show what he was capable of*fcing. ; It was a case of act and act im- mediately and this combined with the fact that the ground was muddy and that the troops were doing something they had never been called on to do before, shows the strict way adopted by Sir Sam in his inspection. After the review he had the officers of the different units drawn up before him, A A A dn - = COL. T D.R. HEMMING. and he gave them a "heart-to-heart" talk. He told the men what was ary for good results to be ob- tained when the front is feached and gave technical directions as to changes that he would suggest for the training.of the men. ' * , Interfiewed By Whig. The Whig representative '"'corn- ered" Bir Sax as He was getting into his automobile to be driven to the eity to see Principal Gordon of Queen's University, ; "Do you know that you are rid- ing in a Ford?" was the questibn put by the Whig man and the answer was characteristic: "I gave the boys {in Ottawa some dope on that last night and you will get a despatch about what I said." ] "What about the disposing of the reporter asked. Sir Sam queried Col. T. D, R. Hem- ming, who was standing near, as to old it still, like this, soldiers during the winter?" the ' lsaid: "Well, that is all that you are going to get anyway." The Minister, accompanied by Capt. Daly, Ottawa, Col. T. D. R. Hemming, Camp Commandant, and y W. F. Nickle, M. P., drove to see| i Principal Gordon. The party re- turned to the camp for lunch.at the headquarters mess. After luncl the presentation of the colors to the 59th Battalion by Mrs. R. S. Waldron was] planned. The Minister will dine! with the officers of the 59th in the evening.

The Dentrll: will be preserved until the end of e war. { "It is Spain's desire to do every- | thing possible to promote the cause of peace. No other nation has a great- i er right tc eaert that role. it is my | hope, shared by the King, that the world peace will be sigred at Ma- drid, an event which is not improb- able." SPAIN JUSTICE LENNOX APPEALED > To Men to Enlist and For Money For Soldiers' Comforts. : After opening the autlimn session of the High Court this afterncon, and referring the Suddard murder case to the Grand Jury, Justice Lennox made a strong appeal for men to en- List tor overseas sefvice. © If men could not enlist it was their duty to give, and His Lordship invited juries, court officials and all others to con- tribute to the fund being raised to buy comforts for the men at the front. 8 tae Court adjourned until ten o'clock Wednesday morning, as His Lordship desired to be present at Barriefield Camp for the presenta- tion of colors to the 59th Battalion. he Grend Jury will report on the Suddard case at that time.

"How much ig it? Sandy asked. "A shilling an hour," he was told. After a few minutes anxious thought he decided to have half an hour, so they accordingly set off. On their return, the wily Scot found, ai- ter looking at his watch, that they had been away twenty: minutes. "Hoots! ma man, ye've only gi-en me twenty minutes," he said. "Oh, that's all right," said the boatman. "Your time shrinks in London, you know." "I dinna ken that--and hoo much are ye chairgin' for it?" "Sixpence, please," was the reply. Saxpence, is it? Here ye are, then," said Sandy, handing the boat- man a three-penny bit. The boatman looked hard at it. "I want six pence, please," he said.
