When Joseph Nash appeared be- fore the joint hotel committee of the eity of Kingston in the city couneil"s committee chamber on Friday after noon he gained another poimt. It was decided that the committee would , hold fteelf in readiness to meet, with due notice, to Near the principals of the Knott system of hotels, whose 'scheme is advocated by Mr. Nash. This meeting is ex- pected to take place any day but Sat- urday of next week or on the fol- lowing Monday and Mr. Nash seemed to have every confidence of produc- ing his men. At Friday's meeting, Mr. Nash out- lined roughly the proposition. Fora while it looked as ¢f he would not a hearing, but through the course adopted by Mp. C. A. MacPherson, Who. asked for a fair show for the speaker, everything was straightened away and it now remains for Mr. Nagh to produce the Knott people and have them confirm his state- ments and clafms. There were present Ald. Peters (chainman), Mayor Angrove, B. N. Steacy, T. A. Kidd, 1. Cohen, H. C. Nickle, C. A. MacPherson, Ald. C, C. Nash, John Donnelly, Ald. Enoch Godwin, H. D.

HUGHES-SWEET NUPTIALS, At the Home of the Bride in Seeley's A pretty wedding took place on Wednesday evening, Aug. 27th, at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Sweét, Seeley's Bay, when their eld- est daughter, Florence Zeéla, 'was united in marriage to Mr. Herbert Stanley Hughes, youngest son of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Hughes, Arden. The ceremony was conducted by Rev. J. E. McLaughlin, Leeds, in.the presence of a large number of rela- tives, and friends. To the strains of Lohengrin's wedding march played by Miss Alva 8 , the bride en- tered the drawing room on the arm of her father, and looked very charm- ing in a gown of French crepe de chine. She carried a bouquet of Ophelia and Columbia roses. Miss Pearl Sweet attended her sister as bridesmaid, and looked lovely in a gown of Canton crepe. The groom was. attended by Mr, James H. Strachan, Kingston, During the signing of the register THE DAILY Bi IT THE TOWN WATCHMAN Now it appears that it is inflam- mable rubbish that is being retain- ed in the cellars. A few years ago it was liquor. How the times change. i; A solution of the question of cel- lar inspection would be for the ex- ecutive of the Retail Associatioon to make a round and report. Then the delinquents could be dealt with by their own officials. - One merchant is said to have had a guilty conscience and to have had his store cellar cleared of in- flammable refuse this very week. _---- Belleville was still in the midst of its boasting about its small fire loss when word came that two men had to jump into the river to save themeelves /from being burned, along with a store. However, there is not enough pep in' Belleville to start a real good fire going. His Worship the mayor does. not like the job of being acting police magistate, and no doubt felt like kicking himeelf over having to fine and send unfortumates to jail Thomas would rather give them all suspended sentence and bid them behave themselves. The Watchman would like to see all the churches In Kingston get back to 10.30 a.m. service on Sun- day. Years ago that was the hour. Some churches in Ottawa have their evening service at 7.30, but 7 p.m, is perhaps the better hour as it lets one home early. -- According to jail rules it appears that prisomers, whether under sent- ence or mot, must keep their cells clean, and scrubbing is therefore necessary at times. When a man is in a sinking ship, it is ofttimes nec- essary for him to bale water or drown, but in the case of the jail other help can be secured. If a pris- oner held by the Crown is proven innocent, why should he have been made to do the dirty work in a jail because he was held on suspicion? These jail rules are in need of amendment. Talking about the cleaning of cells reminds the Watchman of a paper hanger who refused to paper the walls of « room in a promin- ent home because they were really filthy. Cleanliness was not consid- ered next to godliness in that home. ---- Both the prohibitionists and the antis missed a fine chance last Wed- nesday in not being at the Tory pienic in Lake Ontario Park to pro- claim their views to the crowds on the coming referendum. It is time the fight began. Nay wo" A churchman has = written the Watchman giving him some more information about the wearing of the Geneve gown and bands. Rev. Dr. Charles Gordon (Ralph Can- nor) and Rev. Stuart Parker late- ly appeared in a Toronto Anglican church in their Presbyterian robes. The Watchman's informant says that he was surprised on paying a visit to Baton Memorial Methodist churen, Toronto, to see Rev. Dr. pulpit, wearing the Geneva gown (without the Scottish sleeves) and bands. This churchman remarks that some Methodist churches are be- coming Presbyterianized in their adoption of the gown and bands. It might be that if the Geneva gown and bands were generally adopted by the mew United Church of Can- ada, a good deal of the Presbyterian opposition might drop. Put "the average Presbyterian in a Metho- dist church where the minister is gowned and a psalm is sung as sa hyma, he would hardly know the served on the. front lawn. Many beautiful gifts were given, dnowing the high esteem in which they held by all who know the mewly- wedded couple. 'Holiday Hats You will need a new Hat for 'Ill the holiday on Monday.

It would take some of the older generation of Calvinists to scent thé difference. Some good people think that the opinions expressed in this column are thode of the newspaper in which they appear. They are simply con- tributed comment on current at faire. Judging by the letters the Watchman has received from all classes of people, including clergy- men, the opinions are most favor- ably received. Once in a while the Watchman strikes a snag, dut it would never do to be in perfect ac- cord with everybody. 1 LONDON LETTER By Panton House, London, Aug. 10.--Canad'ans who And themselves here during the first week-end in August are able to see a wonderful London sight--oOr ra- ther series of sights--not described in any guide-book. We speak of the departure of the Londonér, and the arrival of the provincial, by tens of thousands, for the bank holiday and the summer holiday, At any ome of London's 15 great railway termini, side towns of the Estuary, must al- ways be fitted into their programmes. The soological gardens, Kew Gar- dens and the Tower of London are highly favored; the House of Com- mons must be seem and "Our Mem- ber's" seat located; and on no ac- count may Westminster Abbey and 8t. Paul's be missed, London's Bank Holiday. During the Bank Holiday week- end 14,157,000 passengers were car- ried by the London underground railways, motor buses and trams. Seven tons of tickets were issued, and 4,600 omaibuses consumed 240,- 000 gallons of petrol. A few figures are available from which we can form some idea of how the Bank Holiday crowds spent their Monday. Wembfey, of 'course, stood alone with a "gate" of 166,181. The Zoo attracted 54,837 people; 18,600 passed through the' state apart- ments and picture galleries of Hamp- ton Court, while 60,000 visited the gardens. Sevénteen patrons, and the National Gallery 10,000. beq tion of 470,000 fingerprints and an organization which works almost au- tomatically, E § i FE Al : 3 it i f i i Ak i ! i 5 i ¥ | i i | ke ii i 3 Two Specials In Real A detached brick dwelling (near Queen's University) with 8 rooms, electric light, furnace, three piece bath, large yard snd driveway. § For $4,100 Basy terms it desired, "Phone us for to" 1 18 appointment to Houses to rent.
