At Logan, near the Mull of Gallo- way, there is a most interesting tidal fish pond. A rent in the cliffs lacing the Irish Channel admits the Ialt water through a narrow fissure, protecting by a grating, into a cir- cular rock basin some 30 feet in diar- meter and 20 feet deep. The cliffs rise high all around. Stone steps descend on one side to a ledge levelled into a footpath at the water’s edge. No sooner does the visitor's footfall resound on the stairs than the green water, hither- to motionless and apparently life- less, becomes peopled with large brown fish arising from the depths, gliding and dashing about in a state of great excitement. These are cod, which, caught on lines in the sea, have been transferred to this pond to be fattened for the table. They are fed daily by the keeper, and experience has taught them to con- nect the sound of footsteps with their mealtime. Formerly a clapper used to be rung to summon them, but this was no more than a trick of the stage. The footfall on the stone is quite enough to awaken them to activity. Most of the cod, being deepwater fish, become totally blind in captiv- ity from excess of light; but they become so tame and accustomed to their keeper as not only to feed out of his hand, but some of them allow themselves to be lifted out of the water. One may witness the strange sight of a huge cod, more than four leet long, dangled on the knee like a. baby, his mouth stuffed with mus- sels and limpets, after which he is returned to the water with a mighty splash. On the ta-blethese fish. thus tended and fed, prove much better than fish brought Itraightfrom the open sea. H' A DOCTOR’S SLEEP Found He Hadâ€"t: Leave OR Tea and Coilee.

Principal Bogart 'e fighting Iridh blood has not him into at water with the To- ronto University students. The trouble arose the.other night when Harbord Gol- le late Institute. of which Mr. Hagarty is end. was giving a dance. Two or :1th old boys came to the lunction without invitation. whereupon the Principal asked them to leave. In resentment, the boys not about two hundred Varsity students, who had been at.endin a theatre to come up to the legiate real: in the doors and genera y “rough house" the dance. After about ten minutes' uproariouencss they departed. Principal Hagarty wrote 'a hot letter to the newspapers, in which he said. among other things. that the students act- ed as if they were drunk. ‘Varsi'ty. the College paper. hotly denied the Principal s allegations. The Principal retortednvnth a threat of a libel action. “Varsity came back with more denials. The verbal me. lee meanwhile was enlivened with a. threat from Dr. Orr. one oi the University Gov- ernors. to have Principal Hagarty dis- missed, and by letters from parents and citizens telling the Principal to stand by his stuns. _ The drunkenness allegation is till“; thing the students resent most. But r. Eag- arty replica than he didn't say the were drunk. but merely that they note as it they were, and that. if they wcrn‘t, their conduct was all the more reprehensible. A Perennial Controversy. The Incident has served to bring to no- tice the perennial outbreaks of the stu- dents and the controversy they always arouse. It may be said that. ninety per cent. of public Opinion is solidly a must the boys and their pranks. Nobo y ob- lccts much to a parade occasionally and a little noise or singing. but the worthy citizens will not stand Jest-ling on the sidewalks or pulling trolley poles oil', or party. City nerves have their limitations. And so the police are urged more and more strongly "to do their duty." and year by year the student outbreaks are sexing. less and less objectionable. Principal Hugsrty is impulsive and did not handle his case against the boys as n more moderate man might have done. but he is not in much danger of losing his job. nor are the boys in much danger 01’ going to jail for libel. Mr. Hagarty is one of the prominent cduoaticuists of On- tario. In his younger days he was in the staff as classical master of Aylmcr and of Senioréh IIth Schools. and later was headmaster of Mount. Forest High School. He has been at Harbor-d Street Collegiate {or twentynno yearn. during which cried the institution has taken a place 11 the front rank. Some of his books are used as Latin text books throughout the Prov. lace. Mr. llazurty is an ardent Imperi- avlist. and is greatly interested in the cadet movement. his son being a crack shot. He is active in the propaganda for a fireat extension of military training throughout the country.

The answer probably is because he doesn t want to. and bananas Sir James Whitney 'doesn't want him to. 'Mr. Fey is not the type of man one usually thinks of as in the burly-burly of politics. He is in manner and appear- ance and manner of speech much more the lawyer than he is the politician. He is also a man of considerable wealth. pro. bablv a. millionaire. For many years he has had an exceedingly lucrative practice and is connected with many financial in- stitutions. While he does not ive the im- pression that he is very enthus ustic about politics. there is no_dmibt he enjoys the game and that he gives freel of his un- doubted leaal abilities to t e adminis- tration of his department. Critics he has. who charge him with indolence, but to these he rarely pays any attention. Mr. Foy's position as first lieutenant to Sir James dates back to the cold days of opposition. In former times Oliver Mowat had secured a pref/2y solid support from the Irish population of Ontario. When into this Mr. Foy began to make inroads there came oneday an offer of a Judge- ship. but he was loyal to his chief,_aud to him he has remained loyal ever since. He is by no means a bitter partisan. and has many warm friends on the opposite party. one of whom is the present Lieu. tenant Governor. Sir John Gibson. Should he decide to retire any day. however. the announcement would not occasion great surprise. Hon. W. J. Hanna. is regarded as his logical successor. but. of course. nothing is over certain in politics. New Hotsis Promised.

Meanwhile. the city is suflering from lack of accommodation. It is not likely that any of the railways will ever build a hotel in Toronto.

In a conversation I had the other day with a men who. in an official capacity, comes in contact wtm a large number of Canada's newly arrived citizens, he told me that the American settlcmtold him that they could not see much differ- once in the laws here and in the Ummd States. but there was a mighty big dif- ference in the way they are administered. It a; a question whoihcr Canadas en- viable reputation in this respect will stand many Michael Fraser eases. Michael Fraser was the eccentric old bachelor near llidland who when nearly eighty years old married a young woman, dau-‘rh- ter of Rev. Mr. Robertson of Dundee. Miss McCormick. s niece of firseer's, brought action to nunnl the marriage on the axioihud that her uncle was of unsound in n . An estate of 880,000 was at stake. The case in one phase or another has been dragging along for slmcst three years. and yet when old Michael Fraser died the other day the case was as far from settlement as over. This is not quite true either. for. as a matter of fact. the case was 520.000 nearer ending than when it beran. 820.000 being thenmount estimat- ed as the costs which have already piled up in the light for an 900.000 estate.

The New Archbishop. The arrival of the new Roman Catholic Archbishop of Toronto within the next week or two is anticipated with interest. The appmntmont of Archbishop McNeil of Vancouver to the vacant Toronto Flee cre- ated some aurpriso. because of the fact that he has not had direct relations with the activities of the Church in this Prov- ince. But for all that he has made a name for himself as one of the stalwarts oi the Church and his work in Vancouver during the past two years has brought his name prominently before the Roman Catholics and others of the entire contin- ent. On his removal to Vancouver he was at once imbued with the tremendous possibilities for growth on the Pacific coast. Vancouver he described as the po- tential New York of the West. And he matured and scoured the adoption of plans for the extension of the Roman Catholic Church there. which promise im- portant developments. Among other things he advocated and has carried into effect a plan by which in many districts the Roman Catholics will be to a certain extent segregated. Archbishop McNeil is a Nova Scotian by birth. belnl‘,’ now 61 years old. He was educated in Rome and served as a priest and missionary in the Eastern Provinces and in Newfoundland. For some years he acted as editor of a newspaper in Nova Scotia. Curiouslv he combines an expert i knowledite of mathematics and astronomy. of which he is extremely fond. with an unusual linguistic e nipment. speaking as he does. English. ranch, Italian and Irish forbears on his mother’s side he owes a fine physique. Archbishop McNeil is described as a dreamer of dreams. but also a. man of no tlon. Typically a man of the Church. he is Quiet. humble and retired. The dio- cese of Toronto is rapidly growing in im- portance and influence in the pfi’nirs of the Church on this Continent. and the up- noivgtment to tt of a man like Archbishop lichen is not without significance. --â€"--â€"------â€"--'1' Valuable Horse Saved , By “Nervilino” Was Too Sore and Lame to Work Quickly Cured by N erviline. “I have had a long experiencein treating horses, and I can safely say that I know of no ‘liniment for strains, sprains, and swelling that is so ‘useful around the stable as Nerv-iline.” Thus writes Mr. J. E. Murchison. from his home, Crofts Hill PD. “1 had a. fine young mare that wrenched her right foreleg, and from the shoulder down she was stiff, sore, and swollen. I applied Nerviline, and it worked like a charm; in fact, that mare was in shape to work a day after I used Nerviline. “We have used Nerviline on our farm for twenty~five years, and never found it wanting. For man or beast it is a wonderful lini- ment.” Five thousand letters recommend Nerviline as a general household liniment, as an all-round cure for aches and pains. Try it yourself.
