Ahountethe boldest daylight robbery {ith has been pulled offoin Kings ton in many a day was put over this week by some young fellow who has | not yet been located, and who evi dently has left for parts unknown Several days ago a young man named Weaver left a suit of clothes to undergo some alterations, and also to be pressed at the tailoring shop kept by Christopher Robinson on Wellington street. A day or so later a young man called at the tailor shop and told Mr. Robinson that Weaver had sent him to call for his suit. Mr. Roobinson was rather surprised at the visit from the young fellow, as the suit was not ready, he having ar- ranged with Mr. Weaver as to the time it should be finished. However, 'the caller had an excuse . to offer, which was to the effect that Mr. | Weaver had been called out of the city suddenly, and this was the rea- | son for his wanting the suit of clothes pooner than he at first expected. Mr. Robinson hurried up the job in order | to oblige his customer, and in due; ~ time the young man went off witu the suit. . But the next day Mf. Weaver ap-! peared on the scene and asked for, his suit.

Tankard Games, inde. and district cur rio Curling Assc Tuesday after Tren ° considerable of , Owing to the rule that prohibits a curler once playing on'a tankarderink from com- peting in a district cup competition. The opimion freely expressed was that this rule operated omnly to the benefit of the ¢lubs in Toronto and other large centres, that the smaller clubs were in many cases prevented from entering the district cup com- jiition by reason of the fact that me tfme or other one or more men had played on a tankard rink and had in this way been disqualified from playing in any other competition. The feeling is that this rule chould de rescinded and that a curler should have the privilege each season of electipg whether he would play in one or the other competition, or if that was felt to be too wide, a privi- lege that all curlers who had played but one game in the tankard should not be under any disability as to playing in the district cup competi- tion. , et i eno, THE WORLD'S TIDINGS IN CONDENSED FORM Tidings From All Over Told in a Pointed and Pithy Way.
