It has been found that many | wecidentss have occurr:d to foreign- v's who have been unable to read, and is thought that many of these accidents may be prev ed through | the use of personal instruciions. : Mr. Booth will also have the pow- lor to recommend;such safeguards on oll pants of the system as he ma)' consider of value in reducing the op- | portunities for acciderts. His de- { partment will werk in dlese co-op- eration with the eafely leagues | throughout the Dominion.

Kingston Frontenacs had enough in the line of sport ands adventure last night to last them for some When they arrived in Corn- wall for their game with the team there vesterday they found it very cold and getting worse. By " mid- night it ig said to have registered twenty-three degrees below zero. The game was close a hard-fought and when the three wenty-minute | periods had been finished the score | stood a tie. Three over-time periods o'clock the teams quit with the score 3-3. fon The Kingston party started back | | from Cornwall about one o'clock and reached Kingston at six this morn-| ing. The train was held up time | and time again on account of snow | and storm and it was a pretty tired | ston. Spme of, the boys had to go | to work two hours later. It can again be said that the Frontenacs | {are putting up a game battle against | the worst kind of odds and the fans will certainly be behind them en masse in their remaining games at home. o> =. Belleville 3; Queen's Queen's fought hard for a victory in Belleville last night but such was not to be. The tie in Cornwall came very near being repeated in Belle- ville as the teams were always close. Belleville scored first and in the second period added another. Queen's scored two in the last per- fod to tie things up but the Belle- ville sharpshooters managed an- other before the period ended to make the final score 3-2.

DAVIES' ADDRESS, In Sydenham S.aeet Church on Mon. day kvening. The five hundred peopled who | weathered the cold on Monday even. iug for tne purpo.e of hearing Rev, or. Trevor H, Davies speak in Syd- enham Street Methodist church, were certainly weil repaid. This 'Toronto preacher, who is recognized as being one of the outstanding men in Canadian Methodism, has a mes- sage tor both the young and :0id, and the manner in which he pre- sented it was most pleasing co all. Dr. pavies is giving a series of four ieclures during the present week on the subject "The Christian Lire." On Monday evening, Dr. Davies took for his text 'Philip saith un- to Him, Lord show us the Father, and it sufficeth us. Jésus saith un- to him, have I been so long time with you and yet hast thou rot known me, Philip? He that hath seen me hath seen the Father, an] how sayest thou then, 8a0w us the Kather?" Dr. Davies reminded his hearers that before some people would allow God to enter their lives, they had to pass through some shattering ex- periences; in many cases our joys come with isolation. The happeu- ings of the present time havé Inten- sified the human need, and life is not complete without God. Ged 2130 brings us to understand that Lais is a purposeful world. Dr Davies stated that surely we are living in a friendly world, and God means something good for all. We should leave all' things to H's care and keeping. Dr. Davies hag the ability of mak- ing his discourse impressive by the use of very apt illustrations, which he has obtained from hls extensive reading. At the beginning of the service Mrs. Douglas Pound sang very ef- fectively "The Pilot. is Waiting Just Beyond." -------------------- Twenty Minute Service. On account of the shorage Of power, the sireet railway company found it necessary to give only a twenty minute service on Tuesday. H.-C. Nickle, superintendent of the rallway, stated thathe intended to give a ten minute service during the rush hours at five o'clock. For the past three weeks the maliway company has found it necessary to use only one' gerera'or at the pow- er house, due to the other one break- ing down. The generator was sent lo Toronto for repairs and it is expect ed back at any time. ---------- Dr. Preston Drops Appeal. Brockville, Jan. 22.--The appeal brought by the defendant, Dr. R. H. Preston, of Newboro, to set aside the judgment of $56,807.82 and certain interest obtained against him at the Assizes here, before Justice Lennox, 'in October last, by Monklands, Lim- ited, of Montreal, has been abandon- ed by Dr. Preston. The case was ap- pealed by Dr. Preston some time ago, and the appeal was to have heen ar- gued at Osgoode Hall, Toronto, this weef. As a result, the judgment at the trial stands.
