Hunter and Mr. McGee caught a very large pike in Beaver Lake. It took the two men to handle it, but they fin- ally got it in the boat. After they got it home, they tried to weigh it but the house scales were not large enough, so they took it to one of the stores and found it was too long for the scales. So they cut it in two and finally weighed it. Mr. Hunter is very proud of his big catch. As he is retiring from busi- ness he may go into the fishing and sporting industry. 'Rev.

In view of the "proletarian origin" of the culprits, however, the court commuted the death sentences to im- prisonment' for ten years in strict isolation in Moscow. ---- Canadian Imports, Ottawa, July 31. --During the month of June the value of Canadian imports from ithe United States was $42,969,214, and during the same month Canada's exports to the Unit- ed States were valued at $31, 694,- 673.
