D. Black, the local member, with watchful eye made a creditable effort to solve the mayor's delivery, while Warden Drew handled the shoots with much skill behind the bat, and out on first was perched the president of the league, James E. Davidson. After W. D. Black had shown that even his wor- ship's curves had mo terrors for him, the smart team from Verona went to bat against the locals and they treat- ed the fair sized crowd to an inter- esting game of the favorite summer pastime, : Stanley B, Trotter, of Kingston baseball fame, handled the indicator to the entire satisfaction of each team and the spectators, Both teams give Mr. Trotter great praise for his clever handling of the plays. As both teams lacked condition and practice, the ball served was not of the highest order, but from the spectators' standpoint it gave delight, as there was much free slugging at times. . In this connection Archie the General Hospital, according toa statement given out by the Dickie Construction company, but the ma- sons are off their jobs. Thts, it is pointed out, is due to a dispute be- tween the n.asons and the stone cut- ters, two branches of the building trades ¢ngaged on the hospital build- ing. The difficulty is not one that can be adjusted by the contractors be- cause it appears to be due to an attitudé on the part of the masons to- ward the stone 'cutters engaged in dressing the stone to 'be used in the building. According to an old prac tice the masons claim that certain work should be left to them to do be- fore laying the stone, whereas the stone cutters regard it as. their work, From what we are able to learn the dressing of the corners was.to be Jett to the decision of the contractors, but the masons demand that the stone cutters shall not dot. In the meantime, the work is stopped and It is likely that all masons will be oft their jobs as the stone cutters are all at work. Masons get 85 cents an hour and stone cutters 75 cents. ------ A reduction of 10 cents per 1,000 cubic feet in the price of gas on all bills for up to 10,000 cubic feet per month and 5 cents on all over that amount was announced by fhe Con- sumers' Gas Company, Toronto, on Monday, > .

Kingston, May 16. -- (To the Editor): Replying to the Standard pf Saturday in which Mr. Givens takes me to task for advocating ) industrial commissioner in 1919, and not livingAip-to it, the mountain has labored [and brought forth from four columns three points which are all wrong. First--That my memory is bad. baving advocated the appointment of an industrial commissioner dur- ing my candidature in 1919, and not living up to it. . I remember distanct- ly the Citizens' platform of Decem- ber, 1919. I remember having paid for my share of the advertisement in the Standard, and also being defeat- ed at the polls, so that I was not a member of council in 1920, but I am pleased to remember that the in- dustries committee and council car- ried out this platform in so far as the appointment of an industrial commissioner was concerfed, I came back to council in 1922, and was appointed chairman of indus- tries committee, and at the first meeting I asked this committees to seriously consider the question of len, who gathered in four singles in 1 MONDAY'S GAMES.

Mrs. Amanda Gunn passed away at the Hotel Dieu on Monday night af- tér an {liness extending over sev- eral months. The deceased was the widow of a prominent Kingston drug- giet, the late Willlam Gunn, and be- Hawley. She was born at Adolphus- town, but resided in Kingston prac. tically all her life. She was a lady of deep sympathies and was widely known and respected. There are na surviving children. Sheriff Hawley, aapanee, is a brother of the deceased, and the Misses Hawley, Bath, are sisters. The late Mrs. Gunn was a member of St. George's Cathedral, and active in all good works in the parish. os SU g } i d 2 10.30 o'clock Saturday morning. sympathy of a wide cirele goes out to Mr. and Mrs. who were former resi; g a a stoa. { the appointment of a full time, high salaried industrial commissipner, and they were unanimously unfavor- able, and appointed Dr. Sands at a nominal salary. Who should know, these gentlemen of business ability and experience "or an editor sitting in his office who thinks he has to write editorials. on every question regardless of whether he has the pro- per information or not? The business of the Industries committee is different from that of the other committees, being neces- sarily of a private nature, and can- not be divulged until completed. One of the first things asked by a per- son looking for a location is that the negotiations shall be carried on con- fidentially, and on this account it is very easy for an editor of a paper to give misleading material to the public. Second--He has side-stepped the writing columns of stuff. Third--He says I want to quarrel With him. This isn't true. Mr. Giv- ons is a personal friend of mine and the Standard a political friend. I wrote in self-defence and of those associated with me, as the editor of the Standard was putting over, without consulting me, a lot of pro- paganda that was not right. It was to clear this up that I ventured a bit of newspaper notoriety, which 1 very much dislike. I am satisfied from the assurances I have that I have succeeded, and I trust I am through, and that this wil be my ast appearance. ' Referring to the article on page 12 of Monday's Standard, written by Mr. Givens or for him, I would like to inform the Standard that I was not induced by anyone to write the letter of May 12th, and that my friends give me a different story as to which of us fs fair and right than the one which is supposed to come to him from his friends. The working men also know I am always working for their interesfs. In conclusion, this matter will be laid before a meeting of the indus. tries committee this week, and the decision of this committee and council, as far as I am concerned, will be final, --WM.
