Mrs. Circle frankly admitted wvio- lating the by-law, but told the magis- | trate that the man pleaded with her to make the gale, stating that he had to go tg work early in the morning, that he needed the overalls, and that he would not have time to make the purchage in the morning. "The next time don't yield to temptation in this way," was the ad- vice of the Magistrate. "No, sir, I won't do it again," said Mrs. Circle smilingly. Magistrate iarrell said that he could make the fine higher, but that he would not « under the circum- stances. A second offence, however, would mean a stiff fine. REAL WAR WHOOP HEARD IN THE POLICE CELLS Indian Under the Influence Was Out For a Time on Thursday. A real wa# whoop was heard in the police cells. It was given by a real Indian, John Coal, and if you ask any of the police constables, they will tell yon that Coal "takes the cake" when it comes to making noise. As chief .noise-maker he reigned su- preme in the police station all Thurs- day afternoon, but when he was ar- raigned before Magistrate Farrell, in the Police Court on Friday morn- ing, he was as dumb as an oyster. He did not , tell where he got his liquor; Indians never do (suffice to say that it came out of a bottle), but admitted that he had been out for a time. John Coal, like King Coal of old, is a jolly old soul, and when thé Magistrate said he would be touched for a fine of $1 and costs, he smiled and continued to smile, as he had the wherewithal to cover his fine, and Was soon a free man again. Vegetables at Toronto, This has been a good year on the fruit and vegetable markets at To- ronto. Cabbages are still very searce and are holding at last week's range of from $3 to $3.50 per case of about 11 dozen heads. Cucumbers are. on a narrower spread, of from 28¢ to 50c¢ per 11- quart basket, with picklers at 50c to $1 per basket. a Carrots are much lower this week, selling at 30¢ to 40c per bag. - Tomatoes ranged around 20c to 25¢ per hasket on Saturday and sold readily in view of the holiday. Small silver skin onions for pick ling sell at $1.50 to $2, with others at 65c to 75¢ per 11-quart basket. LL ----------------------- Ny " Noted Artists Were Here, Mr. and Mrs. F.

PRINCIPAL CLYDE RESIGNS. Former Resident of Cataraqui Was At Petrolia Thirty Years, William Clyde, a former resident of Cataraqui, and brother of Mrs. David Hamilton, Victoria street, and Lieut.-Col. Thomas Clyde, of Odessa, has resigned his position as principal of the Petrolia High School, after thirty years of engagement, first as assistant and latterly as principal. It is of interest to note that this appointment at Petrolea was the on- ly one occupied by Mr. Clyde after entering the teaching profession. Mr. Clyde visited his sister in Kingston this summer. At a meeting of the town council, in Petrolea, on Monday night, Mayor Stirrett spoke in a highly compli- mentary manner of the citizenship and service of Mr. Clyde. ~ , Damage Case Settled. The case which Joseph Murphy, of Joyceville, brought against Trinie Davidson, of Kingston, has been amicably settled by the defendant paying the plaintiff $25. Mr. Murphy's buggy was damaged to that extént by Mr.-Davidson's auto, and he instituted legal proceedings before Lieut.-Col. Hunter. You will want some new Victor re- cords for your Victrola.
