Sie, New Board of Education £ ay evenil to en teacher to succeed Mr, Nesbit, pie cipal of the high school. There were four applicants for the position, viz: J. M. Denyes, Whitby: Me. Weatherill, Williamstown; Mr, Barron, Baltimore, Ont., and Mr. Burwash, Forest. After the board had had heard the applications read and the testimonials of the last three applicants, John 'H. Pat- terson rose and said : "Mr, Chairman, 1 take great pleasure in moving tha the ation of Mr. Denyes be ac- cept We all know Mr. Denyes, know what an excellent teacher he is, know what a fine man he is, and I believe he will he a drawing card to the "| school! 'We want a man who will at- tract the students of the rural sec tiongito the academy." Mr. Nugent seconfied the motion, and bv a unani- mous ¥ote of the bourd, J. --M: Denyes, who a few years ago taught so successfully in the high school there, was appointed principal. The. Were fully twenty-five boys of the high schéol present, as well asa number of citizens,' and when the vote was taken which olocted Mr. Denyes, the applause which broke out from the students present showed the hoard that their appointment was a most popdlar one. Indeed, the ap- pointment is* very popular in the vil- lage for the vew principal was well liked during the time he taught there. Nr. Denyes' many friends in the wil- lage are greatly delighted over his appointment, and we feel sure that the old geademy will well sustain its reputation as. an coducational institu tion under the new principal, and that, under his guidance and diree- tion, the "Blue and Pink" will stead: ilv advance "in the good and great work it is doing. We wish the new principal every success and feel sure that the loyalty and support which the students gave Mr. cheorfully be given to Mr. COLOR IN DRESS SUITS Evening Clothes Must Be Blue or Gray. | New York, Feb. 28.--The really up to-date well-dressed man will wear | evening clothes of blue or Oxford gray | daring the coming season. This charm- | ing announcement came from the Hotel Astor, where the Merchant Tail- ors' National Exchanize is holding a convention and a garment, exhibition. But the man wha likes fo be up-to- at the same time doesn't e to unduly conspicuous, may take comfort in the assurance given by the tailors that under artificial light Vi ly can't tell one of the blue I. 4 3 dress suits from a black one That "ia the beauty of the new style-- it sccomplishes the seemingly impos- sible and reconciles the apparently ir reconcilable. "Oh, yes; they'll be worn," said James J. Meagher of Boston. "The siyle will probably last for a long time and then we will go back to the black "evening dress." But while the American well-dressed man is expected to stand for the blue or gray dress suit, he will not tolerate the purple clothes now popular with {le men of Old England. "The Ameri. can public fs too conservative for pur ple, 'and. American tailors won't think of offéfing' parmients of that color," said one of the delegates to the con vention. "he rumors that the dinner coat Las had its day are without foundation, the delegates say. The dinner coat has rome to stay, and several new yar! will be shown at the exhibition. MAY BE GREAT TIE-UP.

Rice Lake. * Mr. Butler is unable to find any aw thority, either by common law or by statute, which permita of the diversion of water from a natural channel into another watershed without compensa- tion to rviparian owners. The total fall from Rice Lake to Lake Ontarig is 364 feet. The Trent outlet, with eight feet of navigation, is recommended by Mr. Butler, as such depth of water would emormously reduce the cost « of transportation, snd can be had for $455,565 over and above the cost of six- foot navigation. Were the other route atopeed owners of water powers on the Trent would be entitled to compensa: tion. Thoss powers represent a flow of 103 cubie foot per second, equivalent to 1,083 gross horse power, t the rate charged by the dopartment for the use of these walr powers, $2 per horse nower per annum, the amount would He $8,166 annually, which, capitalised at 4 per cent., equals the sum of $204,150 which would have to be added to the cast of the Port Hope or Cobourg routes. From the standpoint of nayigation also, Mr. Butler thinks, the Trenton route is proferable, all the evidence tending in that direction. Momeover, the adoption of the Trenton outlet would insure the development of an immense amount of power glongside un excellent transportation route, while the Port Hove or Cobourg outlets would not admit of any power develop: ment. Mr Butler savs thats in the best interests of the country, the river route. with eight feet four inches of navigation, shovld be adopted, The cabinet concurred in this recomme nda- tion, and, accordingly, 'the Trenton route is the one which has now been adopted.

She slammed the door shut, and locked and bolted it. Then she asked if they would let her marry the man of her choice; they re- fused.
