We hope to hear of their speedy recovery,. Mr R Clancy Sr. returned from Walkerton recentlyâ€" IN THE TWIN CITIES Conkhnued from page The wellâ€"paved principal str ets are a delight ard in splendid buildings and beautiful residences the cities are also abreast of the times. Space forbids any individual mention of the former. _ The money stringency has not ssoriously affected the cities, and though real estate is quieter it has not dropped,. All is subdivided between the cities, and far ont. Enormous prices are demanded for central property, a corner lot cn Cumberland, Port Arthur‘s main atreet, we noticed offered at $1000 per foot. On same street part of a block purchased by a syndicate at $l07 per fnot is now held for $300 per foot. QOur old towosman Chas. McKinnon not long ago sold part of a corner lot bought five years ago for over four times the original price. Any good house brings from $25 to 50 per month rent, and one small twoâ€"roomed cotâ€" tage we learn brought $10, It is said that in the last ten years the cost of living bas increased in Canada to a greater extent than in any other country in the world. In South Grey we don‘t question it, but here it is more strongly emphasized. At the present time butter sells at 35¢, eggs at 40, just double home prices, while clothing is 25 to 33 1â€"3 per cent higher. However where they make more, they can afford to spend more and one sign of the prosâ€" perity of the twin cities is that there are new about 300 autos, in place of 50 a year ago. On our arrival we were met and most hospitably entertaided by Mr and Mrs David Mcintyre, who have seen wonderful expansion in their adopted city since leaving Egremont six years ago. * Dave ‘‘ appears to be as genial and popular as of yore and has a good position with the Northern Navigation Co. Just aâ€" round the corser we found the wellâ€" known old local residents, Chas, Mcâ€" Kinnon and family. Here we also received a warm welcome as is open to all old Durham friends and were treated to a spin around the Fort and the Port in their fine Hudson touring car. With his son Eyerard, Mr Mcâ€" Kinnon couducts a large. modern sales stable, with a capacity for 48 borses. Miss Flora operates the car with the dexterity of any chaffeur and took our party out to the northâ€" ern outskirts to inspect the mammoth plant of the Westera Dry Dock Co. where 900 men are engaged. Here we inspected the Nor. Navigation Co ‘s new steamship the " Noromic ‘‘ in course of construction, which when completed next summer, will be the largest fresh water vessel in the world. The top deck is about 80 feet above waterlevel. Fittings and furnishings are of the best, and when finished, it will be a veritable floating palace. The contract price is $750,â€" 000 though total cost will it is estiâ€" mated reach the million. In the works we were pleased to run across Thos McDougall, who since leaving Durham has secured lucrative emâ€" ployment there and who kindly conâ€" ducted us through the boat and plant, But we must bring ourletter, alâ€" ready too long, to a close, Lett Fort William last evening and after folâ€" lowing a rocky ridge and river beds for some miles, came upon a good {arming country along the Rainy River district, and crossed at Rainy River into Northern Minnesota, all in the night. On arising, we are reâ€" crossing the boundary into south easterm Manitoba and after a thickly wooded region, the prairies are ioomâ€" ing upon us. In a couple hours we reach Winnipeg. â€"P. R. While viewing the present largest boat of the N N. Co, the previous day, â€"the Hammonic, another luxurâ€" ious oneâ€"we ran across Geo. McMurâ€" ray, who has been chaffeur here for the summer, but leaving by that boat {or Toronto. Peter Troy, from beâ€" low Orchard, was also on the wharf, en route to teach school near Fort Frances. Over in Fort William, we visited Will Harris, now manager of the Times Journal, who took us through their newspaper and job plants, and Chas, Farquharson, wheo is on the night reporters‘ staff of the same paper. The many enquiries we have had since leaving as to Dr. Farâ€" quharson‘r health, show the wideâ€" spread interest and desire that our pastor may resume his activities. humanity. It is an agreeable change for the last 200 miles before reaching Port Arthur to nestle close to Lake Superior‘s shores following its many indentations through tunnels and lofty rocks, often right in the water‘ edge. Most picturesquely situated, rising in a gradual slope from the lake westâ€" wards lies the city of Port Arthur in full view, and a mile or so south, quite level, Fort William is seen, a somewhat larger city, but lacking the " set off" of its neighbor. Both rare very much alive, boast a popeâ€" lation of 50,000 and gradually growâ€" ing together over the dividing line of rapidly clearing waste land, bids fair ,.a a few years to be another Canadian metropolis, and Ontario‘s second city. Twin city folk are all boosters, talk is high, living is high, real estate is high, wages are high, buildâ€" ings are mounting hbigh, almost everything is away ‘‘ up in G.‘‘ Municipal ownership is an importâ€" ant factor in twin city development. They possess their ow nstreot railway running the entire length of the main street of each to Westfort, a suburb, their own telephone system, and their own lighting plant. The streets are quite brilliantly illuminâ€" ated, and offices and residences supâ€" plied either by flat rate ors meter. The power plant is located at the beautiful Kakabeka Falls on the Kaministiqua river, some 20 miles out. The falls welearn are 160 feet high, equal to Niagara, though not nearly the volume, and some 20,000 horse power is developed.
