Mr. Tom King gave another of his popular dances at his hall on July 4 (American day.) The hall was splendidly decorated with flags, fes- toons.

The indefatig- able attentions of Mr. King, assist- ed his able second, Mr. O. Bashaw, added much to the pleasure and cornâ€" fort of his guests. There is no doubt when it comes to putting up a dance Tom is all there with the goods. About 40 or 45 couples occupied the 'floor and dancing was indulged in to an early hour next morning.

Mr. Gauthier received them with his usual courtesy and politeness and listened attentively to a long recital of their complaints and sympathiscd with them in their object. He pro- mised to do his utmost to direct their complaints into the proper channel. As a result a number of petitions have been circulated round the camp for signatures, and it is hoped by this means to indUce the government to do something toward bettering the trails or building a road and clearing the waterway, the Waterhen Greek or Foolem Creek as it is better known, of the numerous log jams, and thus doing much to lessen the number of portages the traveller by that route has to make as at present. 1m taking four Inns of px'xwisinns with them and will purchase more en rnutv at the Timlsnil Bay Co's posts. ’i‘im main body will be away about 12 months, but Mr. Grant (mpcuts to return for a simrt trip to l’oruupine in October.
