His Grace Archbishop Walsh bestowed the sacrament of Conrmation on 102 candidates at St. Mary s church on Sunday last. Following his custom on such occa- sions, the venerable prelate gave the forty boys just conrmed the total abstinence pled e_. On the large congregation as- semb etl the Archbishop also bestowed the Papal Blessing, granted by Pope Leo XIII. In his subsequent address, based on the Scriptural query, What does it prot a man if he gain the whole world, but suffer the loss of his soul? His Grace, in re- markably clear and incisive language, de- monstrated the absolute necessity of placing the affairs of eternity before earthly things. The value of conrmation, as a means to this end, was also emphasized. The Arch- bishop impressed on his people the oftenfor- gottenvalue of proper home training of the children. Without this. His Grace claimed, the best teaching of church "and school is of little avail. The father is priest in his home, and by his example makes or mars future generations. .

The present value of the library is placed at $612 33; apparatus. $640.24; maps, globes, etc., $118; gymnasium. $6,730; equipment for physical education, 890. Books for supple- mentary7reading are provided by the students themselves ; there are no drawing models in the school. The discipline of the school is classed excellent, and the work satisfac- tory. Of the last class of entrains, of 17 examined in reading 2 are classed "fair, 3 poor and 6 bad. Of ve other pupils examined in reading 1 is classed fair" and 4 poor. The report concludes as follows : It gives me pleasure to nd myself in a position to report that under Mr. Redditt s principalship the Institute continues to main- tain its high reputation for thoroughness and breadth in the training imparted to its pupils. .

The Government ordered the change to en- sure Hammond s safe keeping. He is con- ned in the eastern cell in the south-east corridor upstairs. and is guarded during the day by John McBride and at night by J obn Chave. The prisoner eats well, is usuallv cheerful, and does not look older than he really is, viz., 23 vears. He will be taken _back to Bracebridge on.l2th Sept. to be hanged on 15th Sept. ,I ICI .0 C F` --- -_-`--- Sgrvices are held -in the gaol every Sun- day afternoon from two to three o o1ock. Several ladies attend regularly; their sing- ing with music accompaniment is very pleas- ing to the prisoners, much more so than a long-winded discourse on a sultry afternoon. Singing and music, with a short spirited and practical address is the popular program in the gaol. ,_,___ -_ .. ._v_- v.-- --v-V uvunvun | John Donaldson was brought to gaol on Sunday by Chief King and Constable W. Sweeney, and on Monday was sentenced to 3 months for breaking arrest last January. W .T nnfntnnrlri Inhn :a nnnn sand-A-nan Good Rie shooting, without which our militia force would be of little value. is one of the things which the new commandant of the 35th has taken a rm hold of. The Colonel has secured a loan of ten of the new Lee-Eneld ries. and has already so im- proved the range as to make it perfectly safe for practice with that deadly weapon. The market's butt has been lined up with a solid stone wall sixty feet long. surmounted by iron mantlets 2 feet high. the whole backed by five feet of earth. Thus the marker may laugh at the penetrating power of the noted 303 nickel cased bullet. and go on signalling bullseves as long as the marksman at 600 yds. distant can pierce the two foot circle.

L- lDf`ll D SIIJUV JJJWCIIGI Albert Fowlie, clerk and treasurer of Orlllia township. was run over by a freight train on Saturday morning near Severn Bridge. A revolver was found near hll body. and it is thought shot himself before the train came along. though his body was so badly cut up by the engine. and cars that evidences of shooting were not unmistak- able. Some years ago he was a lumberman in Midland. and until a change of Govern- ment at Ottawa was Collector of Customs at Orillia. His strange conduct is attributed to nancial embarrassment. He leaves a wife and family, and was upwards of sixty years of age. ~ - "=_-v--- _..- vvuuvyo Miss Kate Barry. daughter of the late John Barry.
