It is, said that the Scoundrel also intended mutilating the interior of the bus. The strap which permits of entrance was detached, and he was evidently frighted before carrying out his dastardly work. Chief Chilton received a call to go and look at the damage at half past five this morning, and took the case up. He has strong suspi- cions on certain parties who were seen Wandering in the vicinity.

Concrete Dam fil’rogeny Record , For Province After tomorrow “the stranger within the gates.” must conduct his marriage preliminaries under the cal- cium light of publicity. The new marriage act of last session, which requires nonâ€"residents of a municipa- lity, county, or district, to giVe three weeks’ notice of an intended marriage, comes into force on Thurs- day. Marriage Must Be Advertised A well known family living near Glenarm hold the record in County 'Victoria and probably in the Pro?- ince of Ontario for progeny. The recâ€" lord is as follows: The husband is 54 years of age and the wife 52. They have 17 of a. family, all living (nine girls and might boys). The oldâ€" Iest child is 33 years old, while the [youngest in. the family is six years old. Seven of the family are married, 'four girls and three boys.â€"Uxbridge Times. The act makes it necessary for non-residents desiring to secure a marriage license to advertise their intentions in local newspapers once a week for three weeks, and to pne- sent affidavits and copies of the no- tices to the issuer of licenses. Ex- ception to this will be made under special circumstances and upon di- rect appeal to the Registrar-General. This legislation, while aimed at se- cret marriages generally, is espe- clally directed at the "‘Gretna Green" at Windsor, where the mar- rying 0f young people from across the boundary line has become a Pro- fitable business. In addition to the advertisement clauses, the Act contains sections making clergymen and others qualiâ€" fied to perform marriages. subject to a heaVy penalty {or marrying per- sons they know to be under the in- fluence of liquor, or mentally defiâ€" cient.

As they have not yet received their invoice they are not sure of the cost. The price on the Toronto market yester- day for choice butcher cattle was $6.50 to $6.85. and half-rations days, until today, for the first time, I fear, adequate supplies have been rushed up. For this deplorable afialr I do not feel that General IVanofi can be held ful- ly accountable, unless, indeed, his censors rule that in dealing with a Turk no madness of folly and cruel- ty should be left out of one's calcu- lation. The city itself is a pleasant surprise. There has been no massa- cre, nor any considerable tire. There is nothing that loan be described as a pestilence, nor has there been fam- ine among the civilian population. I haVe walked for hours along the one long street and its various side- feeders without observing more mis- erv than one would have encounterâ€" ed in Sofia. For these people the siege ended opportunely. Breadstuffs were almost at an end, and had the Bulgarian assault failed a frightfull tragedy must have begun within a day or two.
