Special harve:t thanksgiving ser- vices were held yesterday at the Salvation Army Citadel, Ensign and Mrs. Bosher being in charge. The citadel was decofated with flowers, sheaves of grain, mottoes with serip- tural messages and a splendid dis- play of fruit. Another special fea- ture about the services was that four candidates were farewelled for the Salvation Army Training: College, Candidates P. Billings, F. Knox, O. Tidman and O. Sharp. The morning lesson was given by Candidate Billings, the afternoon lesson by Candidate Tidman. A very large audience gathered for the evening service. After the songsters had rendered a special harvest song, the ensign called on each of the candidates to speak, af- ter which two local officers spoke on the faithfulness of the candidates' work in Kingston. Ensign Bosher then dedicated them under the Sal- vation Army flag for service. The ensign gave an address on sowing and reaping, which resulted in three coming forward for conse- cration. The band and songsters rendered appropriate music. Pullet--Thelma Cochrane, King- ston; Margaret Joyce, Kingston: 'Harold Stover, Portland and Harold Walker, Portland.

Ward, inspector of the Hu- mane Sotiety, had a call to Odessa to put a horse out of misery, as it was unfit for further use. On Sun- day night Mr. Ward was called to a point, near Gananoque, to see. a horse painfully wounded by barbed wire fence. He found it necessary to shoot the animal. The horse had been left where it was cut and the wounded places were alive with maggots. Prosecutions may. follow. Another call came from the outer C.N.R. station, where a horse unfit for use was put out of its distress by the inspector. At Cataraqui street, a horse was found in bad con- dition and was destroyed, as also one on the Concession street pas- ture. A dog, run over by an auto on Montreal street, was shot after | the inspector had investigated its condition.

Prescott, Sept. 22.--Information that motor vehicles drove over that portion of the provincial highway, between Maitland and Brockville, which was closed to traffic, resulted in the appearance before Magistrate Adams at Prescott of some twenty | drivers of automobiles covering an area from Toronto to Ottawa. In all these cases court has held that the road was not sufficiently closed, | and from the evidence given there was nothing to show on the part of those who were summoned that they wished in any way to disregard the statute, and the cases were all dis- missed without costs.

An example of how a deal be- tween a myinicipality and a private concern will hang fire for years without being settled fs that be- tween the city of des ines, Ia. |" and the Randall Lumber yard, of that city, which was begun in 1889. The deal involved the city's trading an existing alley for a strip of land, closing the alley so the company could not use it, and re-opening the new strip as an alley.
