WOLF CHASES FAWN INTO SQUIRREL LAKE Some Pembroke Oanoelsts Witness a Stirrihg Drama of Forest Life. Pembroke, July 8.---Paddling in two canoes from the lower to the upper end of Squirrel Lake, a local party had the unique experience of witnessing a wolf chasing a fawn across the lake. The wolf, a large animal, and its intended prey, had apparently taken to the water on the south' side of the lake. When first seen they were about midway across to the north side.' The party comprised Mr. H. J. Fra- ser, of town, and Mr. Joseph Tapp, of Ottawa, in dne canoe with the load of provisions, and Mr, M. Chartrand, Mrs. Chartrand, Mrs. Fraser and her son, Reggie, in the second canoe. Directly the pursuer and his prey were recognized Mr. Fraser and his companion set their canoe to head the wolf off from the almost exhaust- ed fawn, which was making a brave struggle to escape. When the wolf caught the man smell and saw the rapidly approach- ing canoe it relinquished the chase, and turning round headed back to the south shore from which it had come. In the meantime Mr. Chart- rand had directed his canoe toward shore with the idea of heading the animal, which showed remarkable swimming powers, back again to ths lake. The wolf, however, proved the winner, reaching the shore with his To Be Sold by Auction H. S. MIVOR IS UPHELD LAST EMTION BY THE TOWNSHIP COUNCL At a Lively Session of That Ai Cataraqui on Monday. Reeve Graham And Mr. Mclvor Tak Very At the liveliest session of the council of the township of Kingston held in years, which took place on Monday afternoon, H. 8. Melvor, township road superintendent, who about two weeks ago was suspended by the reeve, C. J. Graham, was d!- rected to continue the duties of that office, " The council, after listening ' to about three hours' debate, passed the foliowing resolution: "Moved by Deputy Reeve Cordukes, seconded by W. R. Aylesworth, that H. S. McIvor continue as township road superin- tendent and that he spread gravel when not otherwise engaged, and that when called away he go to the stone crushing plant and secure a man who wil spread ston® in his ab- sence, and that his work be done satisfactorily to the council." In answer to a question as to whether or not the council consider- ed that Mr. Mclvor had been legally suspended when ordered although not going on record on the minutes, held that he was still a township official and for that reasen he would get the pay for the {ime that he has been under suspension. Mr. Mclvor had been appointed hy by-law, and for that reason it would be necessary for couficil by a majo- rity vote to suspend him. As this was not done he is entitled to his pay, After Reeve C. J. Graham had presented his argument, in which he explained his reason for suspending Mr. McIvor, W. M. Nickle, solicitor for Mr. Mclvor, then gpoke, and was then followed by Mr. Mcivor himself. Reeve Graham defended his action in suspending the road superinten- dent. The one point which Reeve Graham did not go into was the le- gality of his action, and when Mr. Nickle asked for the privilege of speaking, Reeve Graham remarked that in.view of the fact that he had not dealt with the legal #nd of the case, he would not allow Mr.«Nickle to deal with it. Mr. Nickle reminded Reeve Gra- ham that his action had not been according to legal procedure. H. 8. Mclvor, who followed his solicitor, spoke at considerable length, and he gave the reeve a great raking-over. During the course of his.remarks he ' said he would be willing to bet two to one that Mr. Graham would not be around the council board this time next year, as the people were wise to him. Mowes for Resignation. After" the whole case had been | presented to the, satisfaction of both parties, Coumeillor Byron Gor- don said he was satisfied that Mr. Mclvor should be asked to resign. He said that the township must have employees who would work harmo- niously, and looking at Mr. Mclvor he reminded him that he was the cause of the trouble. Councillor Gordon moved for Mr. Mclvor's resignation, but was unable to get a seconder. Councillor Weller said he did not think that the council had given the pursuers so close behind that when he shook the water from his shaggy coat drops of the water sprinkled the occupants of the canoe, Meantime the fawn, which was about the size of a small calf, had reached safety on the north shore, and how strenuously it had struggled for life was evidenced by its gait as it staggered ashore. Mr. Chartrand"s great regret was that he had left his gun in his camp, otherwise hé might have secured the pelt of the wolf.

C ment 'was so' kéen that it would not have surprised the audience if fists were brought Into action. Some of Mr. McIvor's remarks were so strohg that Reeve Graham suggested the council adjourn, as he would not stand for such abuse. After all the remarks whieh passed between Mr. Graham and Mr. Mclvor there seem- ed to be the best of feeling existing between the two when the 'council | adjourned: and Reeve Graham said that he had nothing against Mr. Mec Ivor. ' Delighted With The Rain, The farmers of the Kingston dis- trict were certainly delighted that the rain came when. it did, as many of them were trying to 'figure how i they could do justice to the hay crop : and still attend the meeting, and while they were pondering the mate ter, the rain came down, the horses and cars left their shelter, and made their way towards Cataraqui, and they were certainly repaid for come ing. At times things were so exciting. [that members of the audience ex- pressed their views regarding cer- tain members who were sitting around the council board. Reeve Graham, who always has a fashion of making a statement and then asking some person in the aud- fence to verify his statement, was right in his glory on Monday after- noon, and on numerous occasions he said: "Now Saunders isn't that right?" One of the sensations of the meet {ng was when Reeve Graham pro- duced a . document signed by the men of the qQUATTy to the $Irect that to sleep on the job. This was abso- lutely denied by Mr. Melvor, who stated, that he was not always asleep when his eyes were shut. Mr. Mclvor i | {he had men from all parts of sald that he was wide awake when he was on the ground, and he made notes of the equipment needed to make the quarry an up-to-date con- cern, Mr. McIvor did not let Reeve Gra« ham outdo him in regard to calling upon men in the audience to vouch for statements which he made, au the building saying: "That's right, Hank." -------- The Reeve's Statement. . Reeve Graham who was the first speaker, said that at a meeting of couneil Mr. Melvor had been appoint ed road superintendent, and at this same meeting it was decided that the rate uf pay for the men was to be twenty-five cents am hour. He claimed that Mr. Mé¢lvor 'said he could not get men to work for this money, and he knew for a fact that they could get all kinds of men to work at that rate. Reeve Graham sald that Mr. Saunders, who was ap- pointed in charge of the plant, had authority to hire men and discharge ° them and he did not think the road superintendent had £ime to look af ter the plant. He sald that he had asked Mr. Meclvor to build a road near Westbrooke, going into the Ca- dotte, and he had only stayed a day and a half, and had never gone back to the job. Reeve Graliam stated that he also went out to another place where Mr. . .Mclvor was at work, and found that he had only stayed there an hour or two, and he was certain that he did not spend the time on the roads that he wag being paid for. Mr, Graham said that he had mot transgressed the law in any way, and his whole worth said he was sofry matters had 8im was to get gravel out as cheaply turned out the way they had, and he '88 possible. ~ He was satisfied tbat thought the best way would be to| the plant Nad never,run better than give both Mr. Mcivor and Mr. Saun-! ubder the present management, and ders, wha is in charge of the plant, '8 a fair chance, and if they cannot. he retire them. that he had s the Nolnt' Mr. Graham safd that he did both work together, The vote was then taken and reeve declared the motion of De; Reeve Cordukes carried.
