THE DAILY EXAMINER.

JULY 29, 1889.

Notes and Comments. ,

An Ottawa despatch says that Char-| lottetown has been created a port of regis- try under the act respecting the registration and classification of ships.

Minnesota has recently enacted a law prohibiting the publication of accounts of legal executions, and the Attorney-General of the State says that the law is constitu- tional. Some of the sensational papers are taking strong grounds against the new law.

Judging by the tenor of late des- patches the heavy rains of last week in Kansas, welcomed as a preventive of hot winds and as the saviour of the corn crop, seem to have done almost as much harm as good. In the small grain regions, where much of the wheat and oats had not been stacked, the damage is said to be consider- able.

~-Wyoming is one of the few places where women are recognized as the equals of men before the law. They can vote, they can hold office, they can sit on juries, sud the latest advices from that territory describe how they hanged a woman on the same limbof a big cottonwood tree with a man, one dangling at each end of the rope provided for the occasion.

_ Reports as to the condition of the crops in Manitoba and Ontario are published. On the whole the reports are very satisfac- tory. In Manitoba wheat wil] be an aver- age crop, barley a two-thirds crop, with wats not so good. In Ontario, fall wheat will be a good average crop, except in the low lands, where some damage was dune by the June rains. Barley promises a good yield, and oats a fair crop.

\ presentment recently made by a rand jury in New York shows a deplorable state of things in some of the institutions of that city. The Ward’s Island Asylum is reported tu have 447 inmates more than can be fitly accommodated ; Blackwell's lsiand Asylum has 409 too many; the Workhouse has an excess of 267; the \lmshouse has a superfluous 288, and the Penitentiary is overcrowded to the extent f 191! What aterrible mass of misfor- tune, distress and poverty is represented by these figures. Evidently the neighbor ing republic is not the paradise it is repre. seuted to be by the average Grit politician,

World's fairs are big undertakings as they are managed now. The Philadelphia Exposition in 1876 received an appropria- tion of 31,500,000 frou the city of Philadel- phia, $1,000,000 from the state of Pennsyl- Vania, anda loan of $1,000,000 from the general government, beside a guarantee fund of about $2,500,000 from individuals. Abont $5,000,000 of this sum was spent on the buildings and the remainder on the grounds. The general expense account was trifle under $2,000,000, while the total receipts were $5,000,000, which, with the buildings and other direct profits to Philadelphia, more than paid the expenses, to say nothing of the immense profits gained by individuals in trade there.

-Now that the fountain on Queen Square ‘sin working order—the temporary orna- mental jets having been placed in position

it may not be out of place to intimate that Mr. Newbery is open to receive the present of « fountain from any man, bum- ber of men, or society desirous of having their name or names handed down to posterity as citizens who were abreast of the times in their day and generation. He is also open to receive gifts of new and attractive designs in spray jets, as those uow in use are so arranged that they can be removed at pleasure. Here are excel- en’ openings for some of our citizens to show their appreciation of the good work being done by Mr. Newbery. Who will be the first to take advantage of them ?

The Toronto Mad has virtually thrown uy the ‘‘anrestricted reciprocity” sponge. it thinks there is no use in keeping up the agitation in Canada unless Mr. Harrison and the Republican leaders in the United States Congress show a disposition to meet them half way. Here is the Mail’s own language

“If the Americans, er what is the same thing, the party dominant at Washington, is not disposed to discuss such a question (un- restricted reciprocity) it is no longer worth while Sor us to alvocate it. * * Mr. Laurieris just now advocating unrestricted reciprocity with a great deal of force and eloquence, but unless he can ob’ ain some assurance from Mr, Harrison and the Republican leaders in Con- gress that they are ready to meet us half way, what is the nse of creating a favorable public opinion here ?”

The editor of the Patriot should make a note of the above extract.

—The people of Toronto are discussing the advisibility of having a by-law passed prohibiting the parading on the streets of that city of all bands excepting military bands and those who shall have obtained special permission from the authorities so to do. The Nevs of that city is out in favor of the idea, and some of its strictures are very severe on the bands that play airs calculat- ed to arouse race or religious animosities. Keferrmy tothe Salvation Army band it says

*Another source of trouble is the Salvation Army bands, which fill the air with discord. ant pipings every night, to the terror of horses end to the annoyance of quiet neighborhoods. If they did any good, the objection might not be so applicable, but as they are used solely to druvn up a crowd to put money in the pockets of Booth’s agents in this city, they should come under the operations of the by- law and be incontinently suppressed. If the party bands are a menace to the public safety the Salvation Army and the antics which ac-

MILITIA VS. CIVILIANS. | A VERY interesting match was played on | Saturday, being the third of the series, in which the Militia had won the first and the Givilians the second. The Militia won the toss, and sent their opponents to the bat. Longworth and Martin managed the bow!l- ing so effectually that the wickets were ull down for the small score of 27 runs. Capt. Longworth and Lieut. Leigh then went in together, Leigh losing his wicket after a couple of good drives. He was replaced by Lieut. Moore, who formed such a part-

nership with Capt. Longworth that —e 8 stand was made. At last Geo. E, Robin- son succeded in finding Longworth’s wicket, and the Captain retired, after playing a very pretty innings, for 30 runs. Moore succeeded in putting together 19, Mr. Ingles, of Montreal, added 18, and Farle 16. The last wicket fell for a total of 106, leaving the Militia victors by 78 runs. Below is the score:

We are agreeably surprised to see such fine celery, cabbage, caulitlower, green and butter beans, beets, carrots, onious, lettuce,

ete, at Gay’s stalls, Market House. He has

certainly taken time by the forelock this

season. We would advise these who have

not already done so to change their diet and make one meal each day at least of vegetables, not forgetting Gay's Extra Early Celery, which is unquestionably the best nerve quietor known, This is not a quack medicine advertisement, but simply a reminder that summer is at hand, and that the human sys- tem requires something more than meat, brea? and such heat-producing food, but just the opposite. We would say to hotel pro prietors and others to order a market day ahead and thereby secure the best, and at a discount on retail prices. The advantage of this is, orders are filled at home and the best are not culled, as is sometimes the case purchasing from the market. Order by mail or call at the Market at Gay’s Stalls, No. 23, 24, 25 and 26—-a daily mail to Pownal.--J. J. Gay & Son, Pownal. jy29 dwilm my th
