The motor train to Belle- ville has been cancelled altogether, both going and coming, and the ev- ening train trom Toronto, going through Lindsay to Port Hope and Campbellford will now be rerouted to Belleville. Tranfient Blamed Cornwall.--Believed to have been accidentally firea by a transient who had sought shelter in the hay mow during a storm early in the evening, a large frame barn on the farm of James McKie, four miles east of Bainsville, was destroyed by fire Saturday night.

Warden J. H. Munro took the chair but Reeve John D. McDonald, of Lancaster, was the only member of Council to take a seat within the rail. Accord- ingly, as no quorum was present, it was impossible to proceed with business, All business which was to have come before Council this week will be given complete con- sideration in August. Experience Difficulties Camden East.--On Sunday after- noon, five young men from this vil- lage left tor Varty Lake, and on reaching the lake secured 'a boat which was minus the oars. Decid- ing to cross, all jumped in the boat and began to paddle their way. All wernt well until the middle of the lake was reached, when, owing to the excessive weight the boat began to sink. All were dressed in their best and the only thing to do, was to make the distance from where the boat turned over, to the shore, which is a distance of about one quarter of a mile. To their sur- prise the water was not very deep at this point, being about arm height but their walk was accom- plished with diffictilty, owing to them being fully dressed, and also the weight of their shoes, which be- came water-logged. Anniversary Successful Metcalfe.--The anniversary ser- vices in connection with St. An- drew's United Charch on Sunday and the supper and entertainment on Monday evening were splendid successes and the ministry.

Dr. E. N. Baker, , D.D.,; Principal Emeritus of Fh College. Sixty years ago Dr. Baker was ordained into the Methodist church and forty years ago he took charge of the pui- pit at Bridge Street. It is fitting that the anniversary should 'be marked at Bridge Street Church and next Sunday in the absence of Dr. Bell, he will deliver the sermon at both services. Dr. Baker's viril- ity and activeness in spite of the fact that more than three-quarters of a century is behind him 1s 1ur- veled at by those who know him, Ynduates Visiting Petawawa Pembroke.~Rev.

Queen | Mary Opens New College Annex London, June 26.--Queen Mary on Wednesday opened the new ex- tension of Bedford College in Re- gent's Park, a recognized school for women of London University. Opened just over 80 years ago under modest conditions, Bedford College was practically the .pio- neer institution in higher liberal education for women. Most of the earliest students were adult women. The college has since moved several times, for some time occu- pying adjoining houses in Baker street which had belonged suc- cessively to Cardinal Wiseman and Cardinal Manning. Now the college possesses a worthy group of buildings, including residen- tial accommodation for its 600 students Miss G. E. M. Jebb, M.A. is the principal, MAY GIVE IRON TRADE IMPETUS Develop- ments Which Will Do This New York, "dune 26.- The Pre- sident's moratorium program, the coal strike and the application of the railroads for a rate advance loom up as factors which singly or in combination, may pull the iron and steel market out of the doldrums, the Iron Age 'said in its market summary. "Overshadowing the this authority continued, dramatic and unexpected others," "is the move for a holiday in reparations and war debts which brought such a prompt and universal upturn fa securities and among such other commodities as cotton, wheat and non-ferrous metals, "The coal strike, at first with- cut noticeable effect on fuel mar- kets is spreading materially, re- ducing mine outputs in Western Pennsylvania and West Virginia, and making an advance in coke urd coal prices an early possibil- ity. "The plea of the carriers for higher rates, although not unop- posed, has heen sympathetically received by an unusually large proportion of industrial shippers suggesting that part, if not ail, nf the 15 per cent. advance asked for will be granted. An increase of 10 per cent., it is estimated, would raise steel-making costs $1 a ton, an increment, which would doubtless stiffen mill prices and sharply stimulate shipments prior to the effective date of the new rates. "To what extent any of these factors will actually influenca the course of the iron and ste=l mar- Ket is still uncertain, hut the very feet that imponderables have heen introduced in an otherwise depressing situation has quicken- od the interest of the trade. While buyers have not abandon- ed their spirit of caution in plae- ing orders, inquiries are some- what more numerous, "Steel output has lost further ground at Pittsburg Cleveland, Youngstown, and Chicago. al- though increasinglv slight at Buf. felo, and ingot production for the country at large now averages 36 rer cent., against 38 per cent. a week ago. Additional recessicns seem inevitahle unless sentiment which now appears to be veering, actually undergoes a marked change. "One barcmeter that will eom- mand more than usual attention under current conditions is the scrap market. During the pasi week, heavy melting steel has de- clined 25 cents a ton at Pittsburg and Detroit and $1 a ton at Phil- adelphia, "Purchase of a sizable tonnage of heavy melting grade at Pitts- burgh at $10 delivered brought the market in that district to a- low a level as has been reash- ed in the present century, that price having been toucher only once before in December, 1914. TLe iron age composite price for heavy steel serap has declined frcm $9.50 to $9.08 a ton, which is only 8 cents a ton higher than the 30-year low reached on No- vember 18 1914. "Finished steel prices are still without definite trend with their future course hanging in the bal- ance. While most sheet mills have adopted the new classifica- tion prices for third quarter, epot seles in the past week have brought out fresh concessions in galvanized black and No. 10 cou- tinuous mill sheets. Bolt and nut makers have given an addi- tional 10 per cent. discount to lerge buyers." Biblical Plays Are Unpopular in London London, June 26.--(C.P.)-- Is London in for a burst of bibli- cel plays? On Monday night a French company gave a stage presentation of the story of Noah, Last night at the Royalty Thea- tre the Cambridge Festival play- ers produced '"'Judas," by F, V. Ratti, translated by F. O. Demp- sey. London's Dramatic critics look with disfavor upon the 'Judas' play. There is nothing in it to offend the religious senses but, as an exercise of diversion for the intellect, the play is written down ag feeble in the extreme. 1t is based on the assumption that Judas was a much-maligned man. Such an assumption is even more gratuitous, observers assert, than the effort made to wlitewash another New Testa- ment character by a certain by- gone best-seller among the lady novelists. The Lord of course is not seen in the new play, for English thea- tre censership rigidly forbids any presentation of Christ. In this connection one prominent critic remarks: 'The play raises 'the question why the censor should fcrbid the actual appearance of the chief person of the drama, hut allow the playwright to pnl words into his mouth not recorl1- ed in Scripture. Surely thre is at least as much impropriety in the one as in the other." Another complaint is that the author comes sadly to grief at- tempting to paraphrase the lang- uage of the Bible, And the cu- hist scenery, for such a play is deemed an affront, Famous U.S. Aviator Has Narrow Escape St. Louis, Mo., June 26.--Ma- jor James Doolittle, one of Am- erica"s most skilful fliers, needed all his skill to escape death when the wings of his newest speed plane hegan falling apart while he was flying 250 miles an hour cnly 100 feet above the ground. Jerking the nose of his ship nto almost a vertical climb, Doo- little gained sufficient height just before it went to pieces to leap with a parachute. The flier land- ed unhurt, but his ship was de- molished, the motor being buried three feet in the ground, Maj. Doolittle was testing the ship with a view of establishing a new ground speed record. He had called hewspapermen to wit- ness the performance with the admonition "if anything happens [ want you fellows to be in on it." The pilot's ten-year-old son James Junior, also witnessed his father's daring escape. Doolittle is manager of the Aviation Research Department of the Shell Petroleum Corporation.

PLEA FOR JUSTICE MADE BY VEREGIN Doukhobor Leader Blames Sons of Freedom for Trouble ELECTION DATE IN NEW ZEALAND SET Voting to Take Place Two Months Earlier Than Usual Wellington, New Zealand, June 26.--(C.P. Cable via Reuters). --A general election will be held in New kealand in late September cr early in October, two months earlier in the year than usual. The commercial world is re- Joicing at the decision, announ- ced by Prime Minister G. W. Forbes today, for it means a break with the apparently es- tablished tradition that for some urknown reason always d:zcreec general elections should be held when the shop windows were en- ticing Christmas shoppers. The Prime Minister announcad the Parliamentary session now opening would last eight weeks bringing it nearly to the end of August. The general election, which is necessitated by the ex- priration of the Government's three year term of office, will be held within a comparatively short time of the dissolution of Parlia- ment, Winnipeg, June 26.--(C.P.) --A plea for justice and tolerance _ for the 20,000 Doukobors of Can-"" ada, a charge that the 400 Sons of Freedom, not associated with his leadership are causing the pres- ent disturbances, and an offer to pay for an impartial investiga- tion by Government selected ine veftigators was made here by Peter Veregin. Leader of the Doukhobor sect of Christian Universal Brother- keod, he charged that the Sons cf Freedom only 84 of whom were Doukhobor origin, were the cause of the injustice shown his people. "We are happy here in a good land, if only Canadian justice will belp us to fasten the guilt for destruction of our property where it could easily have been fastened many times," said Mr. Veregin. He and his workers had caught men who had blasted their schools, robbed their houses, but they had been freed by the au- thorities. There was no crisis among his people, he said, "It is with you to deal with a crisis. We bave dealt with it and kept it from us, so that we have no debts, no unemployment, good schools. We are building fireproof schools that they cannot burn. We want. education, but we cannot go own' forever against such destruction.' Mr, Veregin denied his follow= ers contemplated moving to Mex- ico. Fe has heen in- New York trying to arrange the release and removal of 20,000 Doukhobors from Russia. If his negotiations are successful,. he may place scme of the 20,000 Doukhobors on land in Mexico. Liberals In Power The last general election took place in November, 1928. The United Party (Liberals) were re- turned with a party standing of 29, the Reform party. formerly in power under Prime Minister J. Coates, returned 28 members; Labor party 19 and Independent i. With the aid of some LahYor embers the Liberals formed a Government under the veteran Sir Joseph Ward, who died lasr year, when Mr. Forbes, a member cf his cabinet assumed the Prem- iership. The Cabinet was re- constituted in May 1930. The New Zealand House of Representatives consists of 80 members, including four Maoris representing the natives, eiected fcr a term of three years. There i= also an Upper House, the Legi- siative Council of 40 members, who are appointed for a 'erm of suven years and may be reap- pointed.
