For in- stance, it cost seventy-two cents a yard to place limestone on the streets. | To put granite there it would cost somewhere around two dollars a yard, land in the residential streets the limestone was plenty good enough, for supposing the granite lasted ten years and the limestone five years, the cost would be much in favor of the limestone... He couldn't see that | Kingston could do any better than { continue to construct limestone ma- | cadam roads #h the residential sec- tions. Outside engineers were. agreed as to this, Mr. Craig said, and he oferred to a recent letter he had rom A. W. Campbell, commissioner of iighways for Ontario, who endorsed is recommendation to the city coun- il. City hat he tone Engineer Craig further stated would never recommend lime- macadam for the business Although the money by-law, hich was defeated on Monday, had wn amended bv the city council, without his sanction, and $7500 add- ed to what he had recommended, Ens ineer Craig said hé would never ave consented to construct lime- stone macadam roads in the business section.

He was dressed in a blue suit, with peak cap, and black overcoat. "It's kind of chilly, the prisoner remarked, into the cab.

The constable with these two pri- i soners also took a cab at the outeg Junction and followed the cab in which Rose was being conveyed. There was only a small crowd at the station when the train arrived, and very few people apparently knew that the prisoner was to be brought from Toronto to-day, However, the fact became known as soon as the constables = stepped on to the plat- form and the noise of the shackles at- tracted much attention, and soon many eyes were turned on the pri- soner. However, the curious ones had very little time to satisfy them- selves, as there was no delay what- ever,, there being no stop even for refreshments. The prisoner was given all he wanted to eat on the train. The prisoner broke down entirely af- ter sentence was passed upon him, on Tuesday, but since then he has braced up, and apparently has an idea that in the course of a few years he may be able to secure his free- dom. The prisoner is a son of a former chief of police, at Brockville and the father and two brothers were in court when the life sentence was passed up- on him. The crimes for which Rose is paying the penalty wera assaults on May 1st in Toronto, on Ethel Skitch, in Webb- wood's store, and on Allan G. Dun- can, in a store on Adelaide street. The third charge, that of breaking jail, was not pressed. It will be remembered 'that was one of seven prisoners, a sensational escape . from ronto jail, in July last. cently dptureds in Virginia, There is a striking resomblance be- tween Rose and Slack, and this remarked by not a few of the prison authorities. It will be remembered that Slack was convicted of an as- sanlt upon a Toronto woman and sont to the penitentiary. He declared those who assailant rather than Slack, and that the resemblance may have caused the mistake. After a drive throygh the cold, erisp the towers of" the penilentiary in view and Rose 7? kis guards swept through the big gate. oTho iron shutters grated to- gether again and Rose, unlese pardon- cd or paroled at some later dale, saw the big world practically closed for- ever-against him. Alighting at the front door, Rose soon stood in. the wardens office on the right of the en- trance. The sheriff' handed in his papers, took a receipt for them, and then Rose was accompanied by the tothe chief keep- er's department, where he was given His necessary ablutions, his hair clip- ped and a change of clothing given. The clothes he cama im from To- ronto as also other belongings were noted and the package labelled and put aside, possibly never to be called for use again.
