CAPT. JANNEY IN JAIL AT LETHBRIDGE, ALTA. eX ChargedWith Obtaining Money Under False Pretences-- Stages Hunger Strike. A Lethbridge, Alta. says: Capt. Janney, Galt, Ont.,, who 1s being held in Lethbridge jail with- out bail, pending trial on a charge of obtaining money under false pre- tences as a result of efforts to float an aircraft company in Alberta, is staging a hunger strike. For twen- ty-five days Janney has refused to despatch TO TECUMSEH. / ---- Spot Where Indian Chiet Fell Now Marked by a Boulder. The spot where fie famous Indian chief Tecumseh fell in battle while rallying his warriors to the support of the British as they ret ted be- fore the invading Americans over 100 years ago, may soon be suitably Indleated by a momument erected | Jointly by the Provincial and Federal pa, Governments: At the "present time the site of the Battle of the Thames a few miles out of the village of | Thamesvlille, Ont., is marked oily by | | & big granite boulder, set up and in- | {scribed by the Thamesville Historical Society a few years ago. Since that | time the aid of both the Ontario Government and the Dominion Gov- ernment has been promised in the mattter of suitably marking the his- toric spot, but nothing has actually been done. Upon a recent visit to Thamesville, however, Hon. Manning Doherty, Ontario Minister of Agricul- ture, not only spoke in favor of the proposal, but promised every aid in bringing about the suggested im- provement. This is belleved to be |® step toward action in the matter. tees 1 NOSTAE : THE DAILY BRITISH WHIG. i | Tomorrow Is Your Last Chance | Mr. Doherty expressed himself in| 80 to the mess table with the other | entire sympathy with any movement | prisoners.

This idea has found popular favor, and the location of the proposed park is al- ready decided on, and at the sugges- tion of John Howat the name of Mons ' Park has met with public approval. Just east of the big granite rock which now marks the supposed spot where Tecumseh fell there is a bad piece of road, and the Govern- ment has had a survey made for a new right of way. The survey ends at the boulder. Between the road~ way and the river is an ideal stret, of land for a park, and it is this strip which citizens of Thamesville think should be converted into pub- lic property. ment to Tecumseh has been suggest- ed so far, though the general idea is that it should be a rather preten- tious affair. Dr. Stewart of Thamesville 1s en- thusiastic over the plan to have a memorial park. A few years ago he was commissioned to wait on the Governfnent and present a plea for a monument on the site of the battle. At that time Sir Thomas White pro- mised that if the money was avail- able something would be done, but nothing ever came of this contingent promise. John McDowell, owner of Tecum- seh farm, on which Tecumseh is be- lieved to have met death in battle, is skeptical of promises of assistance from the Government, and many others are of the opinion that im- mediate steps should be taken to con- summate the work of erecting a suit- able monument regardless of whe- ther the desired aid is received or not. World's Biggest Saw. There has just been fashioned for one of the big lumber mills in Brit- ish Columbia the largest circular saw ever made. ' To be accurate, there are two of them, and they have been designed to meet the special requirements of the mill which is called upon to han- dle gidnt fir logs, many of which run from fifteen to twenty-five feet in girth. There are millions ¢f acres of fir forests in British Columbia, there being sufficient timber in this single province of the Dominioa to supply the world with all the lumber it needs for many generations to come. Each saw is nine feet in diameter, and boasts one hundred and ninety detachable teeth of the inserted spiral type. This is an important innovation, and means that should any of the teeth get broken or dam- aged, néw ones can be inserted with- out removing the saw from its frame. Each blade was. cast from ingots weighing 1,140 pounds. After re- heating, rolling, and trimming, the finished blades turned the scale at 795 pounds apiece. Creat care had to be exercised in the final treat- ment, as théy had to be mathemati cally true and perfect, and the steel of a uniform quality. This giant among saws is capable of attaining a speed of one hundred and thirty miles an hour. It can saw throdgh the greatest forest giant that ever grew as easily as one can cut butter with a knife. Another Dihosaur. Another of those gigantic animals which roamed Alberta many centur- ies before the coming of man, a dino- Saur, has been discovered and will shortly take its place in the Ontario Royal Museum, along with the dino- saur set up in the museum some time ago. This latter "find" is of an en- tirely new species, and, according to Dr. W. A. Parkes, professor of geo- logy at the University of Toronto, it is the only one of its kind ever dis- covered. The bones of this new dino- saur, extinet many thousands of years ago, were discovered by a par- ty which explored Alberta under Prof. Parkes. ; Hides and Leather. Hides differ widely in quality and desirability for making leather. There are tanners of goatskins, for exdmple, who never during a_ period of years have skins except those from Africa or South America. The leather they produce is known by buyers, and they would not accept skins of a different origin. British postal services had » = ols of £3.469,828 last year. a -------- WILL CALL.

'The worst winter ina' quarter of a century is the cheerful (?) pre- | diction of Lysander Anderson, of | Manchester, who has been prognosti- | cating in that section for nearly fifty years. Mr. Anderson isn't giving away any secrets of his system; he merely states conclusions, as fol- lows: "Real winter will be here soon af- ter 'the sun crosses the line' in December. The mercury will regis- ter low for weeks at a time and great loss will be felt by the poor through vegetables in their homes by being unable to keep the frost away. "The snowfalls will be heavy and will come at short intervals, filling up the country roads and causing great expense to both railroads and towns in keeping them open, High winds will be a feature of the winter, with drifting snow and frost driven in where it would not penétrate with- out force behind it. "In front of each storm of the win- ter the air will be warm and humid, and, after a storm passes the air will become very cold and dry. "The winter will be cold and sev- ere and a very cold period may be expected about February 10th." HE'S READY TO FLOP. J. W. Carry, M.P.P.,, Would Desert Liberal Ranks, Toronto, Sept. 1.--The only thing that would keep J. W. Curry, K.C., Liberal member for Southeast To- ronto, from crossing the floor of the legislature next session to sit with the Farmers is that there is no vacant bench on the government side, Discussing his intentjons, Mr. Curry stated it as his opinion that Liberal principles enunciated to the right than to the left of the speaker. To all intents and purposes, how- ever, Mr. Curry has been a support- sessions, so his declaration of sym- pathy does not indicate any altera- tion in respective strengths. Asked if he would run as a 'Drury govern- ment supporter at the next elec- tion, Mr. Curry sald that he would do s0 on the government's record up the go which case he would not come o#t as 4 Drury candidate, and then again, all. "Are you in accord with the gov- ernment's Hydro-radial policy?" he was asked. » _ "Aboslutely," was the reply.
