Harmon Cole Was to Have Been Expelled From Mexico. ------ An interesting letter has been re- ceived by Ottawa friends from Dr. W. Harmon Cole, who during the re- cent political strife, was ordered de- ported from México where he had a hospital at Torreon. Dr. Cole, who formerly lived here, placed his case before the Mexican Government, and the order was cancelled. He will con- tinue his/work there. The letter from Mexico City, in part, says: "You may have heard that I got into a pretty mess in Torreon owing to some low intrigues by some local people, and they brought the matter to the head Government officials in Mexico City, and T was to have been expelled from tjie country as an un- desirable foreigner. But I got to the City of Mexico and place the matter before the ministers of the various Government departments. Before my arrival in Mexico City, the whole country rose in a body, All the var- nine hundred and eighty-one. With such a large crowd it was remark- able that everything was managed so perfectly, especially as the greater part of this large crowd were chil- dren, The credit for this good man- agement is mostly due to the mem- Dr. J. T. Davis (chairman), J. Mell- ville, T. Wilkison, T. Doolan, John J. Lawrence E. Cochrane, James Rig- ney, James Sowards, Dr. W. Gibson, J. Hughes and M. Kennedy. One can-| not say too much of the fine work of either Rev. Father Lacey, who P- ed out with everything, or of"the ladies who worked so unceasingly at the counter, and supplying lunches for the apparently ever-hungry crowd. . These ladies were. Mes. dames A. Carey, E..O'Nelll, J. Dono- ghue, B. Venoss and Miss P. Fay, at the lunch counter, making and dis- pénsing tea, Mesdimes E. Clarke, D. McCormick, A. Sampson; soft drinks, Miss M. Donoghue, Mrs. W. Robert- son, Mrs. W. McParland; candy, Mesdames, J. E. Marcoux, C. Murphy, H. Paus, J, Taugher, W. Liddell; ice- cream, Mesdames, W. GG. Bailey, W. Woods, J. Gow. The care of tickets, an all important charge, was ably handled by James Sowards, J. Hughes and T. Stanford. Without a sports committee, there would be no pienie, therefore a large share of ad- ditional credit should be bestowed upon that committee consisting of Dr. J. T. Davis, T. Wilkison, J. Mellville, T. Doolan. The large crowds were handled splendidly with the ald of Provincial Police Con- stable Clubbe. The baseball game in the morn- ing, between the Senior Fourth and the Junior Fourth of St. Mary's school resulted in a decided victory for the Senfor Fourth by the score of 22-11. The little boys pat up a strong battle but were not strong enough for the older team. The results of the races and contésts was as follows: y Girls 8 years--Anna Lentz, Norah Bramah, Edith Posoco. Boys 8 years--Vincent Allen, Mel- ville Robertson, Michael Rushford. Girls 11 years---Mary Chudech, Alice Jamieson, Lillian MeCabe. Boys 11 years----Fergus Corrigan, Morris James, Billy Robertson.

A very delighttul ~nd well attend- ed social was held by thé Catholic church parish, at Elgin on Wednes- day, there being over fifteen Rhun- dred people in atténdance from the surrounding countryside during the days. A very pleasant time was en- joyed in the spacious grounds where visitors from the surrounding coun- tryside met and renewed friendships. The chief feature. of the social was the chicken supper served on the grounds. The large ¢rowd was sérv- ed and a considerable sum was made as a result of the supper. The differ- ent tables were well patronized and the affair was voted the most sue- cessful held in that séction of the country in years. Delightful weath« er attended the social. Rev. Father Carey is the parish priest at Elgin. the state of Coichila and Gurango, and others~-I should say all the prominent people merchants, ranchers, and industrials -- 'and even the poor people of the entire district sent telegrams and petitions of all kinds to the President and the different ministers of departments. "When I left Torreon, the whole city turned out to say good-luck, and on arrival in Mexico City, there was a largé crowd there to meet me and assost me in every way. The British vice-consul was on hand and autos were placed at my disposal. All of the papers were full of the news. When I appeared at the various Gov- ernment departments, I was treated by all in the kindest way possible. I did not even have a police escort, which is customary In such cases, Then when I made my defence and proved my innocence, the President revoked the order, and the whole matter was settled at once. All this was done in the kindest way possible, But oh! what a five days I wegt through." ' oo | > -- y ol Dr. Cole graduated at Queen's me- dical College, Kingston. Ball throwing--J, Burke, R.
