There has: been no service of any sort held in‘ the Catholic ehurrh for the last two! weeks. The Rev. Father Pelletier has 1 been away for that period and al-‘ though a priest from North Cobalt was supposed to attend and take charge up to the present no one has arrived. A wedding which was sup- posed to take place here had to be 1 transferred to Cochrane. Several par- ents are also waiting to have their children baptized. Fatirer O'Gor‘ma'n of Haileybury has been communicat- ed with, but up to the time of writ- ing no reply has been received.

Then again it is danâ€" gerous for horses to be allowed .to wander at liberty in all parts of the town. especially where there are a number of woman and children.
