'P0 ADVER'l’ISERS.- Owing to ad-

vertising being heavy at this season advertisers are requested to have their advertising copy in this otllce not later than ten o'clock n.` m., to insure insertion on following day.

ATTRACTIVE' SHOW CASE.-

Among the many attractive Christ- mas displays is the show cane oi Mr. J. A. S. Bayer; photograph# er, Gratten Street. The Christmas picture this year, a child cn the watch for Santa. Claus, is done up most artistically. The show ease al- so contains other beautiful photo- graphs appropriately finished for the Christmas season. \

THE WALKS.-Yesterday pedes-

trians were wishing tbe side-walks "were in France,” for there were few who escaped a fall, be he or she ever so careful. Melted snow with a hard irost alter does not tend to make the sidewalk a very reliable place to traverse, and most people ure beginning to take the roads. Were 9, little ashes or salt scatter- ed on the walks, in front of resi- dences and places of, business, shop- pers end others would he very thankful. ,

DANGEROUS PRAC'l‘1CE.- Yester-

day a number of children could_be seen apparently enjoying themselves by coasting on the sidewalk on Great George streetf, from Water street to the cud of Great George street. This ie a dangerous pi'nct’i€c for children, the slcds going ut such n swift pace

‘that they ure ‘difficult tor the little .ones to control. Ii a horse should come along the wharf street, from Queen to Great George streets, where the const stops, a collision and pro- bably it had accident might,_result. i Ti-in LAST Main.-Yesterday the Souris train from Charlottetotvn ,contained what is scheduled to bc 'the last. mail for the Magdalene Is- lands this season. All mail for that port. was required to be in the I-'ost Office here at 2.30 p. m. At Souris the train connected with the S. S. Lady Sybil, and the mail was taken to the Islands. The Lady Sybil will return to Souris and will probably go to Pffou. In the mean- time the Magdaleues will be shut; oil from all communication with the Is- land or other outside ports during the winter season.

MIKE MURPHY.-In a short

sketch on the hockey situation for the coming season in Nova Scotia and Upper Canada an exchange in- troduces Mike Murphy to the public eye again. Mike, who is a Charlo- ttetownian hy birth, hos been play- ing ‘pro.' in New Glasgow for o. past number of seasons. Now the Ot.tawas_ have signed both him and it fellow player, Wilson, on for $250 from New Glasgow, but they will re- fuse to pay the money claiming that New Glasgow, having dropped out of the Maritime League, have no right to any oi the players who were with them at the time. Mike was nlways stirring up things with the stick and it looks as iihe would still keep things "stirring some."

PRINCE ROYALTY FOXES LTD.-

iln referring to the advertizing col- umns in to-day's issue the reader will ote the advertisement of the Prince ltoyul I<`oxes(Ltd. This company has been formed by the pooling of ioxcs privately owned hy the present share- holders oi this company for the past. itwo or three years, the idea being to csiisldeinbly enlarge the coimpnuy in thc near future. By_ glancing over an dvanced copy of the prospectus which, by the way, is a Bplelldlllly gotten-up booklet. one ' would note the breeding and sLock of the com- pany is of the very dnest pure Island strains and their proved breeders have exceptional records--two of the females last spring having litters ot six and ilve pups reSD€°l¢iV¢1Y» ODG Oi the above breeders being widely known as '»‘The Blue-bird" wus the mother of six pups last spring.

METHODIST Y. P. U.-The Metho-

dist Young People's Union of Bt, John held a rally in the Queen Square Church Friday evening, at which an interesting _debate on “Wo- man Buitrage is both lust and de- sirable," was carried through. Rev. H. E. Thomtw. at one time pastor ot the First Church in this city, was prominent on the negative side.

REGISTERING h`0XEB.- The tlrst batch cf fox registration blanks duly filled in was received yesterday from the J. R. Dinnis- l'e`digreed Bloxes, Limited. The number of animals re- gistered by this con-pany is Z2. There are blanks out now for the re- gistration of over 200 foxes which it is expected will be received iully com- pleted within tbe next iew days.

POOR BUNDAY.- Sunday was chil-

dren's day at the First Methodist

'Sunday School, when the scholars

made their annual oilerlng to the oor. The usual Sunday School ser- vices were held nnd at the close Mr. -James Paton, who is chairman of the Relief Committee, made n short ad- dress. After the collection was taken up. the total offering was found to e $111, which included the value of the presents contributed by the chil- dren.

GILORIOUS l.Cl'J.- For the pest

70"-flight there has hcen ice oi n sort on the Government Pond- the kind that would let one down easy- but the heavy frost on Friday worked wonders with tho thin layer that bud. been. with the result that on Satin- uy the youth of the city had n greet time chasing the puck and skimming over the ice ou their skatfes, Now, with the still heavier frost oi Sun< day the pond has .x still greater firm- ness, and, of course, is quite in con- dition for the graceful pleasure. The little snow that tell yesterday morn- ng would make the skating a little heavy. but in the afternoon a num- h0!` Oi b0YB, on skates and on foot, not busy and _ cleared away spnce enough for u good game with the Duck and the stick. "Is there ice on Government Pond? has been the rtulry all along; and now the answer is "yes."
