MENT COMPANY Regarding the Drowned Land Claims--Held That There Was No Case Against it After so Many Years, r The Government commission ap- pointed to look to the drowned lands conditions in the townships of Hinclinbrooke, Camden and Port- land met on Thursday afternoon in the court house to hear the side of the question presented by mill owners and users\ of power of the Napanee River Development com- pany. The commissioners were A. J. Haiford, N. R. Gibson and Prof, A. K. Kirkpatrick of Queen's University, A, B. CGunningham appeared for the Napane: River Devalopment company and called a long list of Witnesses to show that the con- ditions were not new along the river, and that the interference with their power would throw out of «n ployment many people, close some wills altogether and others fore a laige part of the year.

The Petworth dam was built to replace the old Stevenson dam He sald that the mills gaining power from the dam employed over 200 men and the mills represented an investment of $400,000, and that any inteifer- ence with the power would injure everyone of the mills, Mr. Cunnivgham explained to the comunissioners that the company Was much the same as a railroad and any compensation should be paid when it took up land. When the Napanee River Improvément com- pany took up this land it was prae- tically: worthless. There was no feel- ing of discontent in the old days and why should the company be called to account at the present time for old conditions ? The next witness called was Miller, a civil engineer connected with the company since 1852. He presented a plan showing that the old dam was higher than the new and therefore conditions ere aggravated since 1893, A. W. Bejamin, of Yarker, testi- fied that im the old days the. land was so cheap oven when its timber was on it, that his father had bought 10,000 acras for $10,000, with the timber on it. A long list of witnesses from the mill owners in the company were called, some stating that interference with the power would close" "htm down for a large part of the year, and some that they would be out of business altogether. They were the following : Mr. Wartman, former pump manufacturer at Colebrook: Norman Boyce, successor in the pump factory at Colebrook; James Free man, miller, Yarker; Mr. Ryan, the reeve of Newburgh, who stated that loss of water power would wipe out the village of New- burgh; W. T, Waller, sash and door manufacturer at Napanee; George Gibbard, Napanee; Mr. Findlay, paper manufacturer, Strathcona; Mr. De- fos, of Napanee; John Judge, miller, Camden East.

As money goes, and as flour sells, wheat should, at miling points, al- ways be 'worth a dollar, for even the bran sells for $20 a ton, and then there are the many breakfast foods that have been taken out of the middlings and which sell all the way from 6c a Ib, to three for 25c. A month ago we had some cold days and an inch of snow, but it soon went away; and for the lasi month the fields have been bare and [cattle have been out just as in Sep tember, It is rather amusing for us to read of eightean inches of snow in Mon- treal and the street cars tied up in Ottawa, and this northern land, of which easterners say, six months of winter and the rest is spring and fall, still having delightful weather.

Use Made by Bulgarians Wakes Up British Experts. it is curious to think that the bay- onet, wnich has piayed B80 great a part in the Buigarian victories, might not have been In existence ii toe mihtary experts of the Kingdom aad had their way. in 1892, in the Bulgarian scheme of modern armament, the Mann- dcher rines were oraered without payonets, the autnorities having come to the conclusion that the bay- onet was obsolete in modern war wre. 'Fne average opinion of the army, however, soon made itseif feu, and the first order was countermand-{ edhand the rifle was ordered with the payonet, but the bayonet was not ot th: ordinary size, but really a sort of knife. In subsequent orders the bayonet was not questioned.

His Reporting Days. During. the days of his appremtice- ship in the field of literature Arthur Strin was a reporter on the Lon- don Free Press. His faculty for dra- matic effect was already beginning to show itself, and he sometimes handed in copy more vigorous than discreet. Upon one occasion he was sent to write up an entertainment in which several out-of-town singers took part. Mr. Stringer's article criticized one of them as 'rendering Tosti's 'Good-bye' with the expressive cadences of a phonograph out of breath." Very pa-| turally the editor made an objection to such unnecessary compliments. "If we let that go in, her husband would dyvamite the building," String: er was told. "Then we'll compromise," agreed the reporter. 'We shall say 'she rendered Tosti's 'Good-bye' indescribably." "That won't deo, either." "Then, 'she rendered Tosti's Good- "Much better," said the editor. "In any event," concluded Stringer, "I had the satisiaction of getting my sentiments down on paper half an hour.
