The Crevrolet Coach, driven by Paul Ward, 4245 East 18th Street, Cleveland, which hit Donoghue was travelling at a moderate rate of speed at the time of the accident and it was stated by witnesses that the accident could not have been averted, Donoghue turning right into the path of the moving vehicle, Ware was detained as a material wit- ness following the crash. The jury empanelled by Coroner D. S. Hoig adjourned on Saturday to vie wthe remains and will re- sume the inquest tomorrow night to give their verdict, OLYMPIC ATHLETES GIVEN BANQUET Are Honored ot Function in Windsor Hotel at Montreal Montreal, Aug. 26--Triumphs abroad commenced to bring their appropriate sequel of triumphs at ome when the Canadian Olympic athletes were tendered a dinner to- night in the Windsor Hotel by the Montreal civic authorities, The func- tion was the first one to honor the returning athletes since they set foot on Canadian soil. Although prim- arily recognizing the achievements of the Canadian party as a whole, the event singled out Joe Wright, ir, Miss Ethel Catherwood and the members of the gitls' relay team for special distinction. The Diamond Sculls winner was presented with a walking stick suitabley engraved. Miss Ethel Catherwood received a beautiful leather traveling clock. Misses Myrtle Cook, Ethel Smith, Fanny Rosenfeld and Jane Bell, members of the relay team, all were given silver coin purses, Since none of the athletes who were honored were natives of Mon- treal, the event suffered from no suspicion of merely municipal mot- ive.. It was quite evident that it was simply what it was designed to be, namely, the first expression from a body of Canadians, meeting purely as such, of their admiration for the Olympic achievement, Had Montreal been less insistent about paying its tribute, the Olympic pany would have been in Toronto y now. The steamer Laurentic, by which the majority of them arrived, docked in Montreal in time to make connections with the Saturday night train for Toronto, The Montreal authorities, however, would not entertain any suggestion for the party passing unhonored through the city after the distinction which they had brought to Canada abroad. The delay, accordingly, was decided upon, and tonight's function provided an impressive climax to a day of informal entertainment that was as enjoyable as it was hospit- able, Notable Assemblage This dinner party gathered togeth- er a notable assemblage of past and present figures in Canadian sporting ife. The chairman himself, Alder- man Rubenstein, was a world cham- pion figure skater in his day. Joe Lally, veteran supporter of lacrosse, also came up from Cornwall to pay his tribute to the New Westminster team, There was Joe Wright, the present winner of the Diamond Sculls, and Lou Scholes, his prede- cessor of 24 years ago. In addition figures prominent in the sporting life of Montreal and of Quebec Province were in attendance. The occasion brought a new test to those who had not been vanquish- ed by the difficulties of the Olym- pics, An attempt was made to graduate them as public speakers. It was attended, however, with but little success. Those who had not flinched from the trials of Henley or Amsterdam, showed little disposi- tion to supplement their honors with oratorical distinction and contented themselves for the most part with happy acknowledgments of Mon- treal's hospitality. Fanny Rosenfeld, alone accepted the new role with her inimitable assurance. She recalled that Alder- man Rubenstein ayerred that he "cut a pretty good figure yet." She further stated briskly, that she was not going to call him "Mr. Chair- man," or "Mr. Acting Mayor," but "Louie," because they both came from "the Old Land." The speeches in their general ten- or were congratulatory to the Olym- pians on the score of their success. Young Joe Wright was probably the hero of the night and if there was also a heroine, it was undoubtedly Miss Rosenfeld. No member of the team secured the ovation that Fanny received when members of the Olympic party and its officials united in according her the major credit for the spirit maintained by the girls' team. In her brief reply Miss Rosenfeld declared that she was proud to have accomplished any success which she had achieved for the credit of Can- ada. None of the team had gone over as individuals, she said, but all gone over realizing that they were Canadians and appreciating the honor which was theirs, in carrying the Union Jack into @ompetition with the flags of all other nations. Wright's Toronto During the day the Toronto re- ception committee wired to Joe Wright, jr, asking him if he would appear tomorrow in the east end at Withrow Park, as well as in the west end at Sunnyside. He replied that he would do so as soon as the Sunnyside program should be completed. Tonight' t's celebration of the Olym- pic party's success was the first stag- ed in Canada, despite the fact that the athletes had been almost two days in the country. Probably an aggregation of world celebrities never made a more mod- est entry into the country than did the returning party from Amster- dam. Circumstances conspired to shroud their arrival in obscurity, The two boats upon which they came-- the main party on the White Star liner "Laurentic," and the boxers, cyclists and lacrosse team on the C.P.R. liner_"Montcalm"--both dock- ed at Quebec shortly after 4 o'clock Saturday morning. No opportunity was given, accordingly, for demon- strative public welcome from the shore. PRINCE WAITS FOR "RIGHT MOMENT" Albanian Royalty Will Not Act in Ahmedzogu Step to Throne Berlin, Aug. 26. -- Prince William of Wied, who for a brief period reign- ed sternly over Albania, still main- tains his claim to the throne of that country.s He awaits only the coming of the "right moment" to take action. This was the gist of a telegram which the Prince sent to the Berlin bureau of the Associated Press on Friday in response to a message ask- ing his attitude toward Ahmedzogu, who is to give up the presidency and assume the throne of the country on Saturday. The inquiry was sent to Prince William at his Rhineland cas- tle, "Neuwied" and brought a reply from Munich over the signature "Ca- binet of the Prince," The text of the reply was: "Prince William left Albania in 1914 with reservation of all his rights and still maintains for himself and de- scendants all claims to the throne, de- spite the personal aspirations to the kingship of Ahmedzogu, "A majority of the Albanian people still remain faithful to the Prince for whose return, however, a free and untrammeled vote is at present im- possible. "Free from personal ambition and only mindful of the well being of the Albanian people, the Prince intends for the present to avoid external po- litical difficulty and awaits the com- ing of the right omen." PLAN TO PROTECT TROUT FISHERIES Quebec to Seek Order Pro- hibiting Sale for Indefinite Period Quebec, Aug. 26. -- The prohibiting of the sale of trout for an indefinite period from May 1 next is planned by the Provincial Government, in or- der to prevent the extinction of trout in various lakes of the province, Careful study has been given the matter by the Minister of Mines, Col- onization and Fisheries, Hon. J. E. Perrault, and in view of the fact that certain lakes in the province are be- ing entirely depleted of trout, the wa- ters being dynamited and other illegal means being used to secure the fish, some measures will have to be adopted in order to prevent their extinction, At present the sale of trout is pro- hibited between Aug. 15 and May 1, the order in council being passed by the Dominion Government at Que- bec's request. The regulation would be maintain- ed in force until it is found that the supply of trout has reached such a state that fishing and the sale of fish can once more be allowed. OTTAWA TO VANCOUVER NON-STOP FLIGHT PLAN Ottawa, Aug. 26.--A one-stop flight from Ottawa to Vancouver to test the feasibility of a trans- continental air mail service is pro- posed by the government air ser- vices in conjunction with the post office department, it was learned yesterday. Squadron Commander A, E. Godfrey, who will make the flight, expects to leave for New York within the next few days to test the large amphibian being specially constructed for the at- tempt. ) FRENCH STEAMER IS SUNK IN THE ENGLISH CHANNEL Folkestone, England, Aug. 26.--The French steamer, Daphne, was sunk in the English Channel 20 miles off Dungeness, yesterday, after collision with the German barque Passat.

E is customary in 'the Hill Country where churches are few and far between, rural persons meet at a centrally located home, where the circuit riding preacher or a resident of the vicinity reads from the Bible, announces the bymns and presides, When such a prayer meeting was called for at the home at John France at Goose Rock. the two Smiths were among those in at- tenance, James Smith lighted a cig- arette and was puffing at it in the house when, it is said, objection was made. Several persons are un- derstood to have engaged in the controversy, and suddenly Boyd Smith opened fire on James with a sawed-off shot gun. The charge of buckshot struck the victim low in the abdomen, causing death shortly, teres The farmer reproved the autoists who had helped themselves to hij fruit. "You must think I'm running a self-service farmateria," he growled at them, a a DAMAGE OF 250 CAUSED BY FIRE Breaks Out in House on the Farm of R. W.

Case Charged with perjury following false swearing under oath in police tourt last Saturday when he appear- ed to answer a charge of being in- toxicated, William Terry, of Bow- manville, was remanded by Magis- trate Hind this morning until Sep- tember 4. Bail of $5,000 was refused, and the defendant was remanded in custody. Terry changed his plea of not guilty to guilty in court this morn- ing on the first count, and according- ly was given the minimum fine of $20 and costs by His Worship. W. H. Kennedy, of Whitby, is acting on de- half of the accused. When arraigned on Saturday, Terry, after hearing the evidence of two constables and a detective ser- geant, requested to be allowed to give a statement, and was given his op- portunity, to give it under oath or otherwise. He chose the former, When questioned whether he had had a drink on the day he was ar- rested, Terry replied that he hadn't.

His discovery in rocks taken from Mount Lofty and Fliners Ranges of South Australia, of perfectly presery- ed remnants of animal life millions of years older than any so far classi- fied by science, is of enormous inter- est and reveals that evolution may date back to a much earlier period than was supposed. The earliest forms of life that had been classified, occurred in rocks of the Cambrian period, which available date suggests to have settled 500,000, - 000 years ago, An American geolo- gist who died last year, Dr. C. D. Walcott, had discovered in Montana a few obscure fragments which prov- ed that remnants of animal life might be found in rocks older than the Cambrian, but these specimens were sO fragmentary that it was impossible to classify them, even roughly. Scien- tists wondered what form of life had taken before the Cambrian period, but were left with guesses. Recent Discovery Suddenly Professor David stepped into a new world. For 30 vears he has been searching for ancestors of the Cambrian period, but it is only within the last few weeks that he has found traces of life nearly 600,- 000,000 years ago. Through a powerful microscope he continued his observations incessant- ly. Founding his hopes upon what science supposed of the period, he was looking for white shells. His discovery of fossils perfectly and cx- quisitely colored was a surprise. The fossils range over a stratum at least 10,000 feet thick. This fauna must, therefore, have existed for many millions of years, and as it was a marine fauna spread over approxi- mately a million square miles in Aus- tralia, it must have crossed the Paci- fic and other contemporaneous oceans. It has been supposed the strata in which the remains are fossilized were non-fossilliferous, but Professor Da- vid believes that every cubic inch of the limestone and clay shale rocks will be found to contain innumerable remains, WHY MOSQUITOES WON (Winnipeg Tribune) If the Winnipeg anti-mosquito campaign has heen a flat failure it is because the heavy rains this year increasd the surface of mosquito breeding places--created new pools of stagnant water--there was no more money to refill the necessary cruse of oil. There was therefore no more oil to cast upon the waters; to prevent the mosquito larvae from reaching the winged stage. And the result was that the finest grounds in the resi- dential quarters, the pleasure parks, the golf grounds--the very streets themselves--became places of pain in- stead of pleasure resorts. It was all due to lack of cash, an insignificant amount, grotesquely below the loss in- volved, if put at money values by the deprivation of healthy recreations-- the discomfort--suffered by the citi- zens.

"I just like Tanko and Hall--very very sick," he complained before he started the weird recital of love for a young Chinese girl, the antagonism of the girl's relatives and his strange dreams of their attempts to poison him, "I no eat Chinese eake," Ying told authorities, "I know who want kill me. I kill them first." Ying, who is 29 years old, was under the effects of drugs when he started his crimes, Sheriff John Thornton, of Solano County, said he learned from his prisoner, Fell in Love Several months ago Ying fell in love with Nellie Gee, 16-year-old daughter of Wong -Gee, patriarch of the Chinese fruit picking camp here. Gee, his wife and three small children were the first to be killed by Ying's "revenge," Thornton said, Nellie was seriously wounded, Wong Gee did not like the romance and ordered Ying to leave, the sher- iff said he had learned. The suitor did not bother the girl any more and sought solace in oriental drugs, whence came the ideas that his life was in danger, Thornton claimed. After Ying had killed six members of the Gee family he murdered Yong Fong, Wong Win Fong, Chew Yue and Low Check and fled in an auto- mobile, MEXICAN CATHOLICS MAKE FIVE DEMANDS Mexico City, Aug. 26.--A de- mand toat laws similar to those in the United States guaranteeing religious freedom be put in force in Mexico was made publei today by the United Catholic organiza- tons of this country.
