The assault case which we mentioned a week or two ago, between Mr. Grant and Mr. T. 0. Steele, Principal of the Public School, was decided last Thursday. On the day before all the evidence had been given. `Mr. Steele himself was put in the box and admitted that he had struck young Grant with -his closed `hand, andethat he was angry when he did it from the provocation he had I received by young Grant's impertinence.

I AL_ arvnnaanvai-no Q 5 Axle We have no hesitation in saying that a trip through the inside channel from Pene-e tanguishe to Parry Sound for pleasure seek- ers 18 the nest in`Ontario. The distance is 60 miles and through the whole route the boat is threading her way amidst islands `of all shapes and sizes, and the scenery is simply magnicent, far surpassing that of the Thousand Islands in the St. Lawrence. Many of these islands.have been taken up by prominent men of the Dominion who in- tend building summer residences on them. Hardy Island, owned by the Georgian Bay Island Resort Co., is on the route and is managed by Mr. McAda.m who has three cottages erected for the accommodation of tourists. It is on this route the elegant upper cabin side wheel steamer F. V B Max- well is run. This steamer is 147 feet long, 40 feet beam with-a capacity of 600 passen- gers and a speed of 12 miles per hour. Cap- tain John 'O Donnell is master, ably assisted by the handsome, good-natured and obliging purser, Mr. D. McQuade. -It is the in- tention of the owners of ` this steamer ' to make this inside _ronte popular by giving every possible attention to travellers and tourists. Camping parties can be left at any of the islands, good shing being found any where along the route. A daily mail and fresh provisions can be delivered by -the steamer, which is a great convenience to partieswho wish to enjoy for atime the fresh breezes, pure air and lovely scenery away from the smoky haunts of men in city and town. Every Saturday excursionists are carried the round trip at single fare, re- turningto Penetanguishene on Monday in time to-connect with train going -south. .Meals are furnished on the boat at 25c. V Promenade Concert will be one of the unique things of the season, and without doubt there will be; rush towards the Roller Rink this evening such as has not been witnessed in many a day. Those taking part will be in` Mikado costume, and the illusion will he so complete that a person might easily fancy himself at Tokio, Nagaski or Kanagawa. We hope this cheap trip to the land of the Mungolians will be taken by a large number 0` our people. ` ' Q-I\J UL JJQL I LCD The start was made from Barrie about 10.45 a.m., and the runs werefrom Barrie to Allandale, thence to Tollendal, thence to Fisherman's Point, thence to _Allandale, then _to Barrie, back to Allandale and the nish at Barrie. The` Liz was 1st, Cygnet 2nd and Swan 3rd. The other boat did not `cross to Barrie for the nish. There was but little wind during the whole time of the race, but the Liz and Cygnet kept pretty well together till towards the close, when she was left considerably behind. It is to be regretted that there was not a good stiff breeze so as better to test , both speed and skill under those conditions. The distance run was about 12 miles and the best time 2 hours and 56 minutes. ` - Grip. Grip s summer number with presentation plate, Prominent Conservatives, is a. very good one and is creditable to artist, paper- maker, printer and writer. Mr. Grip. how- ever has evidently lost his temper and calls Sir Charles Tapper naughty names for an alleged interference with the sale of Grip s Illustrated War Numbers at the Colonial Exhibition. Grip should remember that even Mr. Blake s serene soul has been disturbed by its sharp beak, and We would respectful- ly remind Mr. Grip that its influence will be great in the ratio of its impartiality and the calmness of his temper. A I-`1remen s Excursion. On Wednesday, 28th inst., the Barrie Fire I Brigade will have their annual excursion to Braeebridge; This will be an excellent opportunity to spend a day amidst the beau- tiful scenery of the Muskoka` Lakes. The l train will leave Barrie at 7 30 a.m. and ar- rive at Bracebridge at 11 o clnck. Returning the train will leave Bracebridge at 531) ar I riving at Barrie early enough for a good l I I sleep before the next da.y s' duties. Of. course everybody that is anybody, will take in this excursion. ' Regatta. There were four yachts which took part in the regatta last Monday, the Liz, belonging to J. Carley, ofethis town, the Cygnet from Orlllia, the Leftall of Allandale and the Swan also of Barrie. "L _.__A._ __;-J_ I , , `I`l ' I FAR_N |_ PRQPERTY `Silver Jubilee. On the 3rd of August, Very Rev. Dean O 0onnor will hold his Silver Jubilee at the | `rectory on Mulcaster street. Solemn Mass will be performed on the interesting occas- 'sion. No doubt many will be there to do honor to the occasion and to congratulate the rev. gentleman on having completed a. quarter of a century in the service of his Master. Early on Friday morning a thunder storm passed overthis town. The lightning was very vivid and the thunder loud.

It is probable that the price would be quite reasonable if purchased `in block, and nature has already effected so much with her carpet of green and stately branching pines and maples, that a compara- tively trimq expenditure would convert the place into a lovely park, the possession of which would forever remain a memorial to the wisdom of our present town fathers.

It is possible, also, that just such asite , may be wanted some day for the erection of waterworks, for which it seems suitable, and which could be constructed so as not to in- terfere with its use as a park. But outside of this possLb.lit_y it is of the greatest moment to secure the place to the town before it is cut up from time to time in small lots, the beautiful trees gradually destroyed, and wretched buildings erectcd. The sale of one lot or two would spoil the whole place. `Vnnltl it nnf. lxn urn" tn fl-unu onrn-run-Cal-n 3 LETTERS ADDRESSED To run nnrron ; -rms WEEK. l.UU ul uvvu nuluu upuu uuc WUUIC PLEMJC. \\'ould it not be well to thus appropriate some of the funds now being applied to the Agricultural Park '3 When purchased, 5300 would make this grove a delightful breathing place for all time to come.

Last Thursday Mr. Spotton, principal of the Barrie Collegiate Institute, left for Torontoto enter upon his duties as teacher of botany during the holidays. The members of his class will consist of High School masters and assistants, and no doubt it will be well attended. It is particularly gratify- ing that the Minister of Education has hon- ored Barrie by selecting the headmaster of our Collegiate Institute for this important work, but it simply proves that the Hon. Mr. Ross is acquainted with the fact that Mr. Spotton as a teacher of science has no superior in Ontario`. Thoroughly conversant with s ructural botany and with the philosophy of plant life, he has a most happy way of in- ducting his pupils into the knowledge of this useful and delightful subject. i Thncn fnonlxnv-ca I-ml-an Anni:-n I-n loos-n Jrlnn } uul-1 uounun a-u\t LAUA|51ADAuL DHIJJCUII.

We have often called attention to the practice of boys jumping on the trains in the yard while In motion. Still they are con- stantly doing it.
