DURHAM CHRONICLE DURHAM, MARCH ‘Two weeks ago we wxow articl‘ on the proposed dusny '0 be established during the coming suunm time we lelieveol what v .lu-v vvv "_ felt more than sanguine over the apparent success of w hat was to be a gigantic impetus to the pt'oSpertty ol Durham and me surrounding coun- try.

We have implicit confidence in the integrity of our local men. and feel pleased to be able to communicate to the public, that no speculation will be entered knowingly in “lllClI their rights will be endangered. and so lar as 'l‘ttlv; Gunman)”: is t'onrct'netl it shall be our aim to represent everything fairly solar as We know the circum- stances comm-ted with all publcl matters. At the present juncture itl is net IIBCBsSau‘)‘ to enter into details regarding the difficulty more than to say that no fear need be entertained, nor will further subscriptions now be taken. That a cem. nt mill will be estab- lished here is, we believe, a dead certainty, but the arrangement for such an establishment must be based on terms fairly satisfactory to local stockholders and the corporation of the town of Durham. 'l‘he compara- tiw ea-e with which a large amount of stock has already been subscribed, and the fact that during the Last week a number of voluntarv ‘stock- takers have their oflers held in abep‘ance, is highly gratifying to every one who has taken an interest ‘n the development of the enterprise, and an assurance that it will event- ually culminate in a grand and protio able industry. We have the material in abundance. The quantity and quality are the ver\’ hest,--nothing better in the world. We have available an’d cheap means of generating the power. and our present limited railway facilities will assuredly be increased as soon as the demand justifies an additional outlay. The opinion of Mr. Blue. of the Government Bureau of Mines, that we have a ‘° Klondike at our feet,” is the strongest incentive that we can otl'er as a hope that out natural pro- ducts will not lung go undeveloped in the face of a crying demand for the finished product of our marl beds \Ve have the stuff in unlimited abun- dance, and the mill is sure to come.

The assailant this time is a lady doctor, hailing from New York. She not only calls the osculatory art a barbarous custom. but says that no person should kiss without first using an antiseptic wash on the mouth to destroy bacteria.

Three youthful burglars, under fifteen years. were caught last week in Toronto while in the act of robbing a house. A strange feature in con- nection with their cepture is the fact that a policeman did the job. A report from Bloemfontein ex- presses the belief that Genersl De Wet will commit suicide rather than be taken prisoner. The suicide operation, successfully performed, will render him perfectly humless. The character who impersonated the donkey at the carnival is not known. but some aver it was the genuine article. It takes a lot. of “Thank You’s” to buy the baby a dress. KITS AND KISSES. What a. lot of old hens like to get into oflice, offices too where brains rather than gall, are the great dvsud- eratum. Wouldn’t the unpolished speeches of some parliamentary aspirants look brilliant in the Hansard reports? A minister going along the street the other day was surprised to see a crowd of small boys standing in a circle around a hungry looking (103.? He asked what. they were doing and was told that. the boy who told the biggest lie was to get the dog. The preacher was shocked and said: "Why this is terrible.

Dannelly. who is still briwht and active and enjoys a little neigh- borly gossip with her lady friends. was born in the County of Artnagh, Ireland, in 1799. and came to Canada in 1846. settling in Tossorontio about. a year later. Mrs. Donnellv’s eldest son, Mr. Matthew Donnelly, is a sprightly young man of 72 years. Mrs. Donnelly has a retentive mem- ory and can recall many of the numerous historical events of the world for nearly a century. She can distinctly recollect the Peninsular War that terminated in the Battle of Waterloo and the downfall of Napol- eon. the American War of 1812, the Mackenzie Rebellion of 1837, the Crimean War of 183'”, the Indian Mutiny 0(1837, the American Civil War of 1861, the Fenian Raid of 18136. the Confederation of the provinces in Canada in 1867, and the Neil Rebel- lions of 1869 and 1885, as well as many other historical events.
