In One Case He Got Bome Silverware in Another Case He Evidently Received a Big Fright. A well-known house, in the residen- tial park section, of the tity, suffered a lows as the result of the visit of a burglar, or perhaps burglars, on Fri- day night. While the loss is not very heavy, there was a sum of money car: ried off, and evidence that a good search of the house bad been made. The police are working on the case, and a nomber of clues have been found which, it is believed, will be the means of getting hold of the guilty riies, I oehor house, was also visited. The burglar took off his boots, ransacked the lower part of the house, then went upstairs. He was crawing into the bedroom of the couple sleeping therein, when the wife heard a noise, saw the crawling dog, as she thought, bul as the man raised his head she saw the féllow and she called out. Her husband chased the man downstairs, bul he escaped through a parlor window. The police found one of his boots, and it be longed to a good pair. Nothing was taken from the house.

Miss Herdman Gave fin + Address Dealing With the W in India-- Matters Taken up at the Meetings on Friday, Midsiogary work, as carried on in Central India, was refared to In a very interesting address, given by Miss Herdman, at Cooke's church, on Friday evening, at the publi service in cormection with the meeting of the Kingston Presbyterisl Women's For- eign Missionary Society. Mrs, Herd- man has been engaged in the work for several years and 'the story of her work was listened to with keen inter- est by all her hearers. Attired in part of the native dress Miss Herd- man explained how the work was cal- ried on and one point which she em- phasized was that of the eagerness. of some of the people to hear the gos: pel. 1% was, however, very hard to make some of them understand that the gospel was for them. There wete casts in which people walked many miles in order that they might hear the gospel. Here, in Canada, it was quite common for a person to spend nearly. all of the Sabbath day out in an automobile. It taking up the sub- ject of missions the speaker could not understand why any person would be opposed to work in the foreign field. So many arguments were put forth agamst the carrying on of the work in the foreign fields, Rev, Dr. MacTavish presided at the meoting and read the scripture lesson dealing with passages referring to mis- sion work. The argument put forth by some was that we should not send our very best men away to the for eign fields; that they should be kept at home. It was right that the best men that could be produced should be sent to do the work in the foreign field and for this reason, that in the far-off lands the missionaries would meet with all the old religions and pre- judices, and would have to be ready #0 meet all these arguments, and would be necessary that they should ho the very best men. The best educated men were needed to meet all the arguments: put forth against Sheintianity, Another objection rais ed was what we had enough heathen at home, and that ho missionaries should "be sent to the foreign field until all were converted at home. Mrs. Clark Hamilton, who for twen- ty-three years has been treasurer for the society, has resigned, much to the regret of all the members, as she has been a miich-valucd officer, and it is with the deep regret of all the ladies that she is leaving office. Mrs. G. Fenwick hns heen elected fill the position. . to HOTELKEEPER WAS FINED. Sold Liquor to Man on "Prohibited List." A fine of $25 and costs, was im- posed upon James N.

Lye said that he was served by the bartender, and that at the hotel, he wént un- der the name of J. Davis. Mr. Carey said that he knew Lye as "Jack" Davis, and had his name on hin book as such. Lye had been cerv- wud with liguor from time to time, and would pay for tho same every other o- came aware that the man's right name was Lye, and that he was on the "prohibited list," he ordered him out of the hotel. An Electric Joke at The Bijou. A queer electric joke was played by the wires at The Bijou theatre last night, by which tte management and about 150 people suffered. It was shortly after eight o'clock; when the pressure of the electric cur rent in the picture machine doublod and the operator forced to sus. pend the show for fear of destroying the machine. An expert electrician was called in and worked for over an hour but the electrical mystery was too deep for him to solve and it was ne cessary to dismiss the audience and refund their money, The electricians worked until midright and began at geven this morning, but it was not unti} nearly ten that the canse of the trouble became apparent. It then appeared that one of the big exhaust fans which earry the foul air out at the rear of the building had come in contact wit! the metal exhaust pipe transmitting 110 volts of eleetri- city through the metal ceiling of the bwiding from hack to front. This eur- vent then passed 'through the metal tin ng of the operating room and en- tere! the machine adding its 110 volts fo the 110 volts already in use and making the current so strong that the machine was unworkable. Once dis 1 overcst the trovbly was remedied in a fw minutes. Baseball on Friday. National league--New §ork, 5; Brook. lyn, 2. Bostom, 6; Pittsburg, 1.
