Battersea Farm Had te Pay. A couple of weeks ago, two Kings- ton young men while going through the country on a motor cycle, met an * unusual occurrence. They were resting by the roadside, when a ® | waggon, containing three men, came {along. The driver, a farmer living be- 'yond Battersea, deliberately turned his orses towards their machine, knocked it down. When it fell, ad the horses stepped on it and did it considerable damage. For ten di the young men tried to find out the name of the farmer, and after a ward of five dollars was ead they 13 succceded. A few ago, one of 3 Shem, in company with the father of other, visited the house of the Ea as, ump ith Het a bil cost the machine. The farmer hvpairing Ee ing at fault, and settled the claim. W. H.

' The working mass as a rule have Very little interest in matters pertaining te the church. Ministers and speakers in all public places dwell on this question. oa are the very hardest things be- lieve." Mr. Bourke Shi "and facts regarding this matter are as tonishing. D. L. Moody, that great evapgelist, 'who had an exceptional opfFLunity to observe, said that the qulf between the church and the masses in growing wider, deeper aud darker every hour." The preacher asked the audience to consider figures which he would set peiore them. Ile pointed out that in the state of Vermont forty-two towns had been canvassed and forty-four per cent of the population stated that at some time or other they had attended church. Fifty-six per cent said they had never darkened the church door. In the state of Maine fifteen counties comprising 113,445 families had been canvassed and about half that number said they attended church, The re mainder did not. In England not three per cent of the working mass attend- od church, France, Spain, Portugal and all European countries have a large percentage of people who do not attend church. Canada is not exempt by any means. Right here in Kingston -trore are seventy-six families connect od with a church, the fathers or heads of which never attend church. The speaker admitted that there were men connected with his church who never darkened the church door. He had asked them if they had any grudge against him or the church, and they had replied in the regative bLut at- tributed their failure to attend church to a lack of interest. "Why are masses away from the church?' The people of to-day are no mote wicked than they were in days gone by; their morals conpare favor. ably with recent years. At a meeting held recently in Cooper fall, New York. in the course of his remarks the speaker happened to mention the church. The people hissed at him, but when a moment later he mentioned the name of Christ they all rose as one body and cheered, This shows that they have not lost interest in re- ligion;: but because they are irrespon- sive to the calling to a higher life. The struggle to gain supremacy over the pinch of poverty has embitted many a soul against providence, some have said that ministers are too blame that they have too much Greek and Latin and not enough knowledge of the wording man's condition. He must be ready to lend a helping hand in time of trouble and not be preaching all the time, Mr, Bourke touched on the Sheldon scandal in Montreal and said those who had gained by investments in the hands of this man, had received their spoils from the ranks of the working man, ¢ If the masses are away from the church, way ? The speaker said he would answer that question next Sun- day evening. EMPTIED WATER TANK. Se The Mains Will be Flushed Out To- morrow. This morning, the waterworks tank in Williamsville was emptied, in order to clean it out. This ' was done in view of the fact that water samples taken from taps showed contamina tion, while the last samples taken from! the pump house were quite pure. The tank is now being refilled. To-morrow the mains will be flushed out, so that the whole water system will have been freed of any possible pollution, which might have been existing in it through recent contamination by sewage. This afternoon, the waterworks committee will meet. to discuss the intake pipe question. Preparations are being made to examine the pipe inshore for leaks. Should be Careful. At the meeting, in the Orpheum theatre, Sunday afternoon, Charles R. Drum, the international secretary of the Y.M.C:A,, was making a strong appeal to men, to pay more attention nd | to their wives, to give them words of commenslation, pointing out how - at- be before they wera married, and how Dw egiecyiul they could be after been married a short time.

America's distinguished comedian, Henry E. Dixey, will be the attraction at the Grand on Tuesday, Oct. 18th, where he will appear in George Pas ton and W. B. Maxwell's three-act comedy, "The Naked Truth," now being pla jd jo Loudon, England, by Charles ey and his company. "The Naked Trath" is a three-act farcical comedy thal for- the past seven months has been breaking all previous records at Wyndham's thea- tre and the Prince of Wales' theatre in London, Engl: wid, where Charles Hawtrey is appearing in the role to be played here by Mr. Dixey. It is declared to be a clean, whole some comedy, and entirely up to the standard of merit obtained in ali Mr. Brady's productions. For the interpretation edy Mr Brady has surrounded Mr Dixey with one of the largest and most representative - organaizations assembled in New York in many sea- sons. In several respects it might be designated as an "all-star east)" there being a number of former stars prominent in the company. of the com 'A Winning Miss."
