It was while Napoleon waz a | young lieutenant of artillery that he first met Catherine Hubscher. She had a laundry in the Rue St. Auné in | Paris, and there the young officer I'took his soiled clothes. | Catherine was pretty and outs {spoken. She didn't know---and if |she had known, probably wouid not | have cared---that her impecuaicas | customer was one day to be. the greatest figure in the world. Napo- | leon lived at the Hotel des Patriots, | pear her shop, and he owed her, as | well as other tradespeople, a long | score. When he went into the laun- | dry one day, she was about to ask { him tor payment, when she noticed | that his shoes were worn so that his | bare feet showed through. So she i simply added the amount to the list ; and-said nothing. Napoleon, it is said, forgot the i bill, but he never forgot her. She married a young sergeant, named Lefebvre, and many years later Ca- | therine and her husband became the { Duke and Duchess of Dansig, the former sergeant being made a mar- shal of France. Catherine lost her habit of plain speaking and it is history that the tattered and un- paid laundry bill was once used by her to prevent France from commit- ting a grave diplomatic blunder, It makes an absorbing story, this chronicle of Napoleon and Mada:ine Devil May Care.

Shamrocks and Circle-Six will play on Tuesday evening at the Cricket Field in a Junior City League game at 6.15 o'clock.

PETERBORO DEFEATS BELLEVILLE BY 9-8 The Trunks Made a Gallant Stand But It Was . Belated. Peterboro, Omt., July 27.--The traditional finish of the Belleville Central League team fell one short in the game here on Saturday, and the Petes won 9-8. It was the last visit of the Trunks here this season, and the'crowd which braved the threatening weather was well re- warded. The game was marked by good fielding and many hits. Tommy Holyman played a Whole of a game at short, his catch of Casey's fly back third being a feature. The visitors made eleven hits, including two doubles and two triples, while the Petes made mine, having three doibles. The locals bunched their hits be- hind the. walks issued by Koen, whose four walks blossomed into runs, while only two runs were scor. ed on charities by Whitehouse. The local hurler struck out seven and Blakely fanned three. Keon ~ was coontinually in hot water the six innings he worked, having men on in all but one, and retiring no bat- ters on strikes. Weir and H. Mills with three hits each were the leading batsmen. In the seventh inning Manager Gerow made a grand change, shifting every- body but H. Mills and Weir. The shift stopped the Petes' attack, and the batsmen all found their eye. Score by innings: RHE Belleville. . (1010002408 11 2 Peterbore. . .03110410x--9 9 2 Belleville--Weir, 3b; W.

A Long Illness Resulted Fatally at Los Angeles. Arthur M. " Feawick, fifty-seven years of age, a real estate broker in "Los Angeles, for the last fifteen years, died at his home, 4631 West Eighteenth street, on July 18th, as the result of a chronic illness. Arthur McMaster, Fenwick, was born at Kingston, Oat, on July 18th, 1868, and departed this life July 18th, 1925, just fifty-seven years to a day. His early life was spent here,where he was educated receiving his degree from Queen's University. He was married th 1898 to Miss Margaret Munn and moved westward to Regina, Sask. where he became identified withfthe schools. For mady years he was connected with the Normal at Re- gina and was eventually promoted to inspector of schools. In 1909 on account of ill-health, he took his family to Los Angeles, where he has since resided. He leaves besides a widow, two sons, Hobart C. and Kenneth M., the for- mer identified with the business de- partment of the Auditorium Theatre while the younger, Kenneth, is at present a student in the California Institute of Technology. This world to-day is a better world by reason of the life of Arthur Mc- Master Feaiwick for he truly looked for and emphasized not only that which is best in human life, but he lived in a sense away and beyond his fellowman in that he saw and ap- preciated more than the most of us) He was constantly pointing to the things that were beautiful in naturs.
