d'enly on Monday. He was engaged
by. A. J. Poynter to cut wood and left
for his work as • usual that morning.
As he had not returned for either his
dinner or his supper. and as his dog
was seen sitting beside the old man's
coat, it was suspected that . something
was wrong. Messrs. Poynter and Hilts
went to search for him about 7.30 p
m., and found him lying dead by the
side of a log at which he had been
working.- Dr. Fish, Coroner, was noti-

A despatch. from otace Bay, Nova
Scotia, says: Many newspaper corre-
•w speindenta were ' present on Thursday
••alterneon at Port Morien, when the
-commercial wireless service between
Canada and Ireland was inaugurated
- by Signor Marconi. The messages ex-
• -changed were sent by Sir Wilfrid Lau-
., .rier,. Lord Strathoona. Sir Hiram Max -
1m, .the Lord Mayor of • London and
e!Cither notable mea.
-• Marconi said that over ten thousand
Words had been received and sent on
-Thee/Way and not a single word had
to be repeated. The inventor said that
he. had nothing new to tell, and when
• asked it he would make a statement for
the 'press, said he had nothing to say.
la a few days, he said, a press service
would be inaugurated between the
-• towers and ships at sea so that press
-ficeasages may be sent each day. It is
possible tor Marconi to locate a ship
anywhere at- sea, and in a teat made
•,' by the wireless people for the British
• Admiralty a British warship went to
sea under sealed orders, and while she
remained_ in touch with the Marconi
sestets the chart of the course she had
'alien was made, up at the wireless Ma-
,. lion that cOrrespond exactly with that
-of the ship.
-: NO INTERRUPTION. -
•• Asked if it was possible for a mes-
sage to be intercepted4 the inventor
said no, and even i1 one was copied
by a fluke it could not be done again
11 the matter was • found out, as the
' tuning apparatus of the sending and
receiving station would at once be alter -4
• ed. Two messages may be received cri
the one set of wires at the same time.
,-and on Thursday Morten - messages
••were being received and sent over the
same set of aerials.
A wire was sent by the London Daily -
Mali to President Roosevelt conveying
greetIng,s. Sir Wilfrid Laurier sent the
greetings of Canada to the Mother
Country. .
The operating room is abut twenty
;lett longand- • about twelve feet wide.
and is equipped with three keys. Right
in front of that reom is the trans *rar-
er room, where 8 or 10 tzansfornere. are
at work transforming the current up
to a very high voltage. The key is con-
nected to an •ordinary wire, which is
connectedwith the aerial. A 'funnel-like
tube spits flame when the operator
touches the key. This, in turn; com-
municates to the jump spark, and so
to the aerials. The noise on the wire
is like a number of whips being crack-
ed. The whole process is most niter;
esting, and while it is difficult to get
any definite demonstration that mes-
sages -are readily being sent, yet both
Marconi._ and Vyvian claim that they
bave been sending and receiving.
-- INTEREST IN MONTREAL.
•
A despatch from Montreal says: In
Montreal a -great deal of interest was
displayed in the inception of the new
wireless service at Morten, and many
enquiries were addressed to the Marconi
Company's -office. Mr. John D. Opp..
manager of .111e Canadian Company,
when seen, said: "Yes, indeed, this is
u busy day. Or course, the service is
only an inaugural one, and the usual
daily service will not commence for a
few days yet. However, there is a host
of press messages offering. and there
seems to be plenty of work for the op-
erators." •
•
MESSAGES FROM LAURIER.
A despatch from London says: The
Daily Chronicleon Friday morning pub-
lishes the folkiwitig, message from Sir
Wilfrid Laurier, transmitted by wire-
less from the Marconi station in Cana-
da: "Greetings to the people of Great
Britain upon the attainment between
the, British and Canadian coasts of na-
tures latest greatest tile/Mph over dip
hince." . •
The Express published the hetk4ing
from the Canaan Premier: -
"Welcome. By this bond between
Britain and- Canada one more triumph
ter the Empire and science has been
achieved."

British Adhntralty Rains Central of
. Nigerians Supply.
Reports have been publishedin the
Asnerican press that the British Govern-
ment had obtained important obi con-
tessions in Nigeria, and intended to
sebstitute oil for Welsh coal at all naval
bases.
Inquiries show that in' Mareh last an
erdtnarice granting power to two com-
panies to operate In Nigeria was drawn
up.. In it is stipulated that the "Gov-
ernment shall have pre-emption of all
crude oil raised, and in the event. sof-
Seer the Governor, on behalf of the Go"-
eenment, .shall have the power to lake
eentrol of the works and plant," .
The. London representative of the two
companies concerned stated on Satur-
day that wells have already been sunk
in West Africa. and that the otl obtain-
ed was of satisfactory quality. He stat-
ed that negotiations were going on -be-
tween these two companies and his. Ma-
jesty's Government with the view of
`supplying oil to the Admiralty wben it
i, obtained in large quantities.
This, of oourse, does not necessarily
mean that the ' Admiralty will substi-
tute ofi• for coal if the operations in Ni-
geria • are successful, but it shows that
the .Government is fully Ohre to the
possibilities of oll fueltoh the navy:
The colony will, hi accordance- with
the Government's ordinance, receive: 7%
per cent. on the business done.

Almost involuntarily, Gordon foainald

With a .superstition which he 'could

'coked at this object, and saw that it
was an old and rather battered silver
pencil -ewe. It was placed beside Usher's
pile of counters. and every now and then
he touched it carressingly.
"Yes, it's my -mascot," he said laugh-

—The following -despatch from
St. Catharines dated October 20th
refers to a former resident of Pick-
ering, who lived with bis par-
ents in the house on Church
St. near the race bridge.
"Charles Tremeer, moulder, at the
McKinnon Dash and Metal Works
- while out shooting with a number
fellow workmen yesterday after-
noon, dropped dead near Martin-
dale Creek. Tremeer's absence
was not noticed by his companions
-for some minutes. and when the
o body was found, with the gun be
side it, foul play *as feared and
Coroner Merritt was summobed.
Examination of the body failed to
;reveal any wounds, and the -doct-
or.soon discovered that death was
due to heart failure. •Tremeer
came to this city from Whitby.
-His mother and sister reside in
Toronto."
—For some t1Rie past this locali-
ty has been comparatively free
• from automobile accidents. This
-is due to some extent to the fact
that horses along the front road
are getting used to the auto, and
• not due to any extra precautions
exercised by -the autoist. ' ' It is a
well-known fact that the reckless-
ness of automobilists has not de-
creased but if anything is nore
marked than ever. J. Dickie states
that : while out driving on the
• Kingston Road west of the village
he met an auto in -which were five
or six occupants, near the curve at
Mr. Hill's. They were travelling
at the rate of about forty miles an
hour and had his horse been
frightened of autos, an accident
would have been inevitable. As
it was, they ran. over a dog which
was injured very badly and will
die. The autoist, however, paid
'no attention to this little acci-
dent . and never stopped. E. L.
Chapman also States that about
three hours after the foregoing in-
tident occurred he -also met one
near John Field's going at a most
'-furious rate and while he got off
the road as far as possible the
,auto kept on the centre of the
road and came within -an inch or
• two of striking his buggy. He
got past safe, having ceased driv-
ing the fractious broncho. It' is to
regretted that no steps have been
taken here to compel those reck-
less drivers to pay some slight
attention to the law -regulating
speed. .'It will go on until some
terrible accident will force an in-
dignant people to take some action
to stcnre their rights.

Tells How To Mix 1t;.
A well-known authority on Rheuma-
tism gives the readers of a large New
York daily paper the following valu-
able, yet simple and harmless prescri-
tion at home:
Fluid 'Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce; Compound Sargon, one ounce;-
Compound
unce;Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces. •
Mix by shaking well in a bottle, and
take a spoonful after each meal and at
bed time..
He states that the ingredients can
be obtained from any good prescrip-
tion pharmacy at small -cost, and, be
ing of vegetables extraction, are
harms less to take.
This pleasant mixture, ifltaken reg-
ularly for a few days. is said to over-
come almost any case of Rheumatism,
The -pain and swelling. if any, dimin-
ishes with each dose, until permanent
results are obtained, and without in-
juring the stomach. While there are
many so-called Rheumatism remedies,:
patent medicines, etc:. some of which
do give relief, few realy give perman-
ent results, and the above will, no
doubt, be greatly appreciated by Many
sfifl'erers here atthis time.
Inquiry at the drug stores of this
neighborhood elicits the -information
that these drugs are harmless and can
be bought separately, or the druggist
here will mix the prescription for our
readers if asked to. -
