A Saintly Woman Passed to Her Long Rest. At hali past five o'clock, Thursday evening, Mary Philp, relict of the late Rev. kichard Whiting, passed to the eternal home. Her last outing was to prayer meeting, on Wednesday even- ing, the 19th. Since then she was con- fined to her home on "Clergy street, suffering from heart trouble. The end was peaceful, the weary spirit passing calmly upward to its God. "The late Mrs. Whiting was of an old Wesleyan family, being born in Coin: wall, Eng., eighty vears ago. When Mr. Whiting came to Canada late in the forties to labor in Christ's vineyard, she was his promised frie. and came over the sea fiity-four years aco to wed the younz Methodist preacher. For over hali a century, the two lab- ored faithfully together, for Mary Philp was born to be a minister's helpmeet. The work they accompli ed was indeed great, far bevond the telling, and when the aged minister of the church fell "asleep three years aco, leaviny his faithful partner to continue life's journey alone, all peo- ple paid tribute to his saintly mem- ory. Not less are the tributes to his departed wife, who clung to the church to the very last, so deep was her de- votion. Mrs. Whiting resided in Kingston for the past sixteen year since her hushand came here as pastor of Queen street Methodist church, and since his retirement and death. She was nected with that congregation all the while, and always was seen in her pew below the pulpit. One John L. survives.

Charge No. 1, alleging that Lionel Rix, of Bath, had been pro- mised a sum of 'money by D. W. Ball for going after a voter named James Cunningham, was called. Lionel Rix testified that on elec tion day he was asked by Mr. Ball to take a boat and go down to the hght- house on the Brothers' Island for James Cunningham. Owing to heavy wind, was unable to go by boat, so drove down. Did noi get Cunning ham. Expected day's pay for the work. Asked Ball about the pay and was promised it. Later on again ask- ed for payment and was told that when he received the money from the conservative committee it would be paid; a conservative committee had been appointed to pay such accounts. Had not yet received the money. Trusted to' Mr. Ball's honesty for payment of the money. John Thompson, a companion, of the witness, and who accom- panied him on tle trip for Cunning ham, gave corroborative evidence. Heard Ball tell Rix that he would get his pay for the trip. Went with Rix to Ball for payment; Ball said he had no authority to pay the money. It was shown that Ball had acted as scrutineer and agent for respondent at Bath. D. W. Ball testified that Rix had asked for pay for going after Cun- nincham, but witness told him he could not hire him to make the trip. Did not promise any money to Rix on election day or at any other time. Told Rix that a conservative commit- tee would pay his claim if it was a proper one.

Mr. Herrington took the box and testified to having seen Kelly in the company of George Greer and R. H. Baker in the lobby of the court house. Had warned Greer previously to cease tampering with witnesses, or he would report the fact. Witnesses had been tampered with all through the trial. Justice Osler said that such an open charge should not have been made. It might result "in bringing back all the witnesses to have the charge de- nied.

If state- ments are all like that which Mr. Herrington has just made, he is un- able to prove them; they are founded on mere heresay. Mr. Cassells said that Mr. charge was an untruth. Mr. Watson waxed warm and asked Mr. Cassells if he intended his re- mark -to be applied personally." Mr. Cassells replied that he did not.
