For three days the governor of the jail, William Partridge, and Provincial .police officers have been endeavoring without avail so far, to ascertain her fdentity and re- store her to her friends. About 40 years old, she presents an afr of education and refinement, Small of build she has long, slend- er well-cared for fingers, feet as dainty as those of a Spanish dan- seuse and, in the midst of her talk, largely without coherence or sense, she uses words and grammar which indicate that in the past she has had the advantage of more than average education, Her story is a strange one. Last Thursday, a Brampton truck driver saw her standing on a corner on the Dundas highway just outside of Toronto. She raised a signalling hand and he halted. With old-world courtesy she preferred a request for a short ride, saying that she was a little tired, TORONTO PROVISION PRICES Toronto wholesale dealers are quoting gthe following prices to the trade: Smoked meats edium, 32 to 3/c; cooked loins, re- |s0 Ibs., 24c; Bananas, per Apples, 6-qt, basket 2e, Heayywei 45 to smoked, rolls, 25.

And at the next corner, she decided that she would stay on as far as the next. This she maintained, from corner to corner, until she was well out of Toronto. Then the truck-driver, realizing that his passenger was a stranger, even to herself, brought her to his home in Brampton, where his wife endeavored, without success, to learn more of the mystery woman, They housed her comfortably for the night, and on Friday morning, called Provincial Constable Joseph Allen, who, in company with Town- ship Consstable Sidney Belford, es- corted her to the jail and placed her under the kindly ministrations cooocoo=noooso PO NES te 2 0 a hy 2a ERNIBSSEBRSBEBBAL Wins Fame as Musician Kingston.--Henri L.

Seeing pictures of overalls therein, she happily told the governor that 'just as soon as the cats and the bears bring me someb oards, I am going to make you some overalls like these." Oftentimes her talk rambles as though her mind took a different jog with every three or four words uttered. For many of the words included in a single sentence have no relation at all to one another. When taken to jajl she was wearing a blue jersey dress, a grey wool-knit hug-me-tight, and high laced boots, Her hair, almost black in hue, is uncut and rolled back from her face. She is quite happy where she is ,and has men- tioned nothing that would give a clue to her identity. An address on Indian road, which she men- tioned, was investigated but prov- ed meaningless, She has also poken of Pape avenue and of Te- cumeh street, but all inquiries by police in these ntighborhoods have yiel@ed nothing. Inquiries at the asylums and provincial institutions also resulted in reports that no pa- tients were missing. CREEPING T0 RIVER THROUGH SLATGATE INFANT 15 DROWNED Perth Baby Crawls Away Unnoticed, to Death at Rear of Garden RR Perth, Sept. 30,--Colin Cox, 18- months-old baby of Mr, and Mrs. Frank Cox, was drowned in the basin of the Tay River Saturday. Mr, and Mrs, Cox were at werk in a local factory, little Colin having been left with Miss Day, Mrs. Cox's glster. The latter, working in the home, suddenly noticed the child was not in the, house, ran down through the garden at the back to a gateway on which was a slat bar- rier. Thes lats were so loosely put up that the baby could - crawl through. About ten yards from the gate is the basin, in which. the water is deep. Constable Lee, who was passing, went to the basin, where her ecovered the body. The mother on being informed of the tragedy was overcome, and is in a critical condition. - A eiti- zen reported that he had seen the child fall in, but as he was 100 yards away on the other side of the basin and was unable to swim he did nothing. Mr. and Mrs. Cox ar- rived from England only recently. Grosvenor Place, London, England, has just left London, Ontario, af- ter having completed an affilla- tion with McConnell and Fergus-| son, Limited, one of Canada's leading advertising agencies, In an interview to the press Mr. Cleaver said: "lI came over to Canada with the commission representing the Sales Managers' Association of Great Britain because I realized the possibilities in this wonderful country. The longer I stay the more I am convinced. I decided to ostablish an affiliation with a good Canadian Advertising Agency in order that the clients of my Company in Great Britain, who are interested in the Canadian Market, would have the advice and experience of a well organized Advertising Company in Canada, with Offices from Coast to Coast, and knowing intimately Canadian Sales conditions, "This affiliation also places at the disposal of clients of McCon- nell and Fergusson, Limited, a Dritish Advertising and Sales Or- ganization which knows conditions intimately in Great Britain, The arrangement is, therefore, a reci- procal one which will help both British and Canadian sales organi- zations interested in the two coun- tries, "When I met Mr. McConnell, President of McConnell & Fergus- son, Limited, I concluded that he and his Company are the people with whom we wanted to be as- sociated. They have the interests of the Dominion at heart and want to see more British people in Canada and more British trade developed, British business men share these sentiments and it is my intention to do everything I can to promote their realization." OSHAWA'S GOOD EXAMPLE ( A Letter in the Toronto Globe) To the Editor of The Globe: -- Another Canadian community is dealing with unnecessary noise-- at any rate, that which is created when citizens are trying to sléep. Chief: Owen D; Friend of Oshawa considers' that the nightly rest of ' sane-living people is of more im- portance than the bedlam turned loose by whoopee parties and noc- turnal lunatics in general, Unnec- «ssary horn-tooting at all hours of the night is to be effectively dealt with, { . There are many in Toronto whose 'greatest desire is more quiet in which to.pursue their daily cai- ling, but such is denied them, Is Toronto, of which we are so justly proud, going to be backward in grappling with this great evil? A city reasonably quiet would be a marked place today. Residents would 'be loath to leave, visitors would be eager to stay, for both health and temper would be im- proved thereby. Property would more easily rent or be sold, for scores are ready to make home anywhere that would afford relief from incessant neise. Is not all this worth considering? Toronto, Sept. 16. H, C.
