Stewart, Madoc, Falls to Sidewalk--Her Leg Broken. Marmora, Aug. 26.--An accident of a peculiar and distressing nature happened op Forsythe street. Mr. and Mrs. Walter Colster reside in rooms above the stores rented by Miss Quinn and Mr. Fred Lee. A wooden balcony jutting out from th: upper storey was used by the Colsers as accommodation for outdoor plants. On the day in question Mrs. Col- ster's aunt, Mrs. A. Stewa:t, Madoc, stepped out on this balcony to exa- mine a very beautiful plact, when without warning the whoi: fabric descended to the cemen' sidewalk below, a distance of some twelve feet. Through the fall Mrs Stewart sustained among other injuries a broken leg. Being an elderly lady her accident is of grave concera to her relatives. Though she was wear- Ing glasses at the time, It is re- markable that they were neither damaged in the least way or jarred off. Mrs. Colster had a narrow es- cape from falling, just managing to catch at the screen door and so pull herself back into the room. --_---- FLAT TIRE CAUSES MOTORIST'S UNDOING Caught by Provincial Consta- ble With Load of Booze East of Napanee. Napanee, Aug. 26.--A flat ure proved the undoing of the driver of a liquor laden motor car just east of Napanee Saturday afternoon, and also provides a wonderful argu- ment for those in favor of driving "in" on the flat tire. William West, garage man living In Hastings, stopped by the road- side to fix a blowout on the tire of his Stutz car. Fate sent Provincial Constable William Thompson of Napanee along the highway, and when he stopped his car to help his brother motorist in distress, he was greeted by two cases of the best Quebec liquor commission Scotch whiskey, and a quantity of good ale, which rode in the car. West is now fn jail at Napanee, and his big car is also detained. The police have been on the look out for a certain Stutz, which is reported to be in the whiskey business, for some time. West appeared for trial at Nap- anee to-day before Acting Magis- trate Rankin, He is chargedwith il- legally transporting liquor, and if found guilty may lose his car as well as suffer the fine accompany- ing conviction. Two companions, arrested on nominal charges of vagrancy also appeared. 'STANDARD WAGE FOR MINERS OF ALBERTA Recommended by the Con¢ili- ation Board in Dispute in the North. -- ottawa, Aug. 26.--The report of the board of conciliation investigat- ing the dispute between the coal Operators of Northern Alberta and the Edmpnton and district miners' federation, recommends that all mines in the operators association continue to pay standard wages for all company men. The scale of wages, which is the Same as that now paid in the Penn mine, follows: miner on company work. $5 for eight-hour day; brush- ers, track layers, drivers and chief cager, also $56 a day: pushers and assistant cagers, $4.50 a day: cou- pler (under 18 years), $3.50 a day; assistant track layer, $3.50 a day; boys under 18, on surface, 35 cents an hour, outside labor, 50 cents. an hour; blacksmith, 65 cents an hour. The miners asked $5.60 per day. The operators in the dispute were prepared to pay $5 per day. Both parties wished to arrive at a stan- dardized scale. The board recommended that contract rates in the different mines be continued as they were in the agreement that expired on June 30th, 1924, with provision for no overcrowding of contract miners during busy season. The miners are protected by extra pay for work in wet places. DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT 70 - CANADIAN MILLERS Bill Before Reichstag Does Not Provide for Duty on Flour at Once. London, Aug. 26.--Yesterday's developments in connection with the threatened imposition by Ger- many of a duty on wheat and flour are moderately encouraging to the Canadian point of view. The fact that the bill before the Reichstag provides no immediate duty on flour has given the Canadian mill- but there is no relaxation of the efforts to dissuade the German Gov- ernment from exercising the auth- ority which the bill if passed will give. A memorandum from the act- ing high commissioner to His Ma- Jesty's Government has been for- warded by the Foreign Office to the British ambassador at Berlin, who is understood here to be co- operating with the American am- bassador, and is keeping the Cana- dian interests {nformed through L. D. Wilgress, the Canadian Govern- ment trade agent at Hamburg. The Canadian milling companies are re- celving every assistance possible from the Government agents here, and are also placing their own re- presentations before Berlin. It is believed here that the -most effect- Ive argument that can be put for- ward by the British Government, which is not itself protectionist, and Is moreover in the position of a creditor, is to emphasize the loss to German revenues through a prohibitive duty. On the other hand It Is recognized that the German Government may have to make some coacession to the Nationalist group whose support is necessary to secure the adoption of the London agreement on the experts' plan.
