When he was brought back he was taxed with the theft. He admitted taking the handker- chief, but ssid ‘‘ he could not help it.” After receiving a good talking to, he was allowed to ge. Before going, however, he purchased the handkerchief.

Arutetic. — The annual intercollegiate championships took place at Manhattan Field, New York, on Saturday last, and resulted in a decisive victory for Yale, with a score of 474 points, ageinst Har- vard's 34% points, Over 800 entries wore made. Great interest centred in the 100 yard dash. A. A. Lofurgey (of Sum- merside) who won at this distance in the late Yale-Harvard games, won his trial heat for Harvard in 1035 secs., but was beaten in the semi final, and thus failed to get a place in the final. Richards, of Yale, the favorite, won the final in 101-5 secs., Baker, of Harvard, getting third. Richards is pronounced a phenomenon, and with proper care and training will equal, if not eclipse, the great performances of Cary and Jewett.

BLAZE AT GEORGETOWN
Much Valuable Property De- stroyed,
Loss Over $12,660 — Very Little Insurarce.
A disastrous fire occurred at Georgetown this morning about half-past three o’clock The tire, so far as we can learn, started in the loft of Dr. Barnes’ stable, in the rear of his residence on Main street, whence it
spread to the Doctor's dwelling-house which, with the stable, was soon re- duced to ashes. From Dr. Barnes’ residence the flames spread to
the Russell House, owned and occupied by Mr. Angus McLean, and soon that tine structure, with the outbuildings in the rear, was rezed to the ground. Around the cor- ner the fire fiend worked its way, wiping out of existence Walker's harness shop and barn. Next two fine dwelling houses, owned by Captain James Burke, and the cut- buildings belonging thereto, came to grief ; and the Salvation Army Hall also succumb- ed. Thomas McEvoy’'s dwelling house was also destroyed, and bis stable was saved with the greatest difliculty. A stable belonging to Hon. A. J. Macdonald was badly scorched.
The origin of the fire is not known. Dr. Barnes was absent from home at the time, having been called to Murray Harbor early in theevening ‘The fire was discovered by aman named Hubert who was going out fishing.
Most of the furniture in houses was saved.
The total loss by the fire is roughly estimated at about $12,000.
The Russell House was ivsured for $1600; Dr. Barnes had insurance for $2000, and Mr. Walker was insured fur $900. The other victims of the holacaust had no insurance.
The people worked hard to stay the progress of the flames. Their efforts, how- ever, were not attended with very great success until much valuable pfoperty was destroyed and the hard earnings and sav- ings of many worthy persons went up ip smoke.

Enotnerrs.—-The Engineers will meet for drill on Wednesday evenings instead of Thursdays in future. A full attendance requested for this evening.

Tue Wepprxe Girr.—At a meeting of the St. John Princess May bridal gift com- mittee, held a few evenings ago, a resolu- tion was unanimously adopted to the effect that the Canadian offering tothe princess consist of a Davenport, with chair to match, made of woods of Canada, with mouldings of Nova Scotia gold; also a pair of candlesticks of gold from Nova Scotia. The various coats of arms of the provinces will be introduced in the candlesticks and the same to be the style of the Corinthian column, ornamented with wreaths of May- flowers.

P. E. Istanp Hosprrrat.—The annual meeting of contributors to the P. E. Island Hospital was held last evening at the Hospital. In addition to the trustees there was a fair attendance of ladies and gentle- men who take an interest in the institution. The retiring Trustees, H.J.Cundall and Dr. R. Johnson, were unanimously re- elected. The receipts for the year amount- ed to $3,020.13, andthe expenditure to $3,349.60, but as there was « considerable balance on hand at the ‘eginning of the financial year there was :o scarcity of funds. The amount received from paying patients during the year was $1,205.03, and a much larger sum could have been obtain- ed if the Hospital had more private rooms. The question of adding a wing to the build- ing and also an elevator to the operating room were seriously discussed, and an appeal will be made to the public for funds to carry out those much-needed improve- ments.
MeeEtTiIne oF Prespytery.—The Presby- tery of P. E. Island met in Zion Church yesterday. A petition was received from Brookfield asking for separation from New Glasgow and Hunter River, A counter petition was also received from a portioa of that section asking the Presbytery to allow the congregation to remain as at pre- s.nt constituted. After hearing arguments in »upport of each petition it was decided not to make §. change, aud the Rev. W. P. Archibald was appointed interim mod- erator of the section of that congregation in place of Rev. Malcolm Campbell, resigned. The Rev. John Gillis, of Untario, intimast- ed by letter his acceptance of the call to the congregation of Dundas, and arrange- ments were made for hia induction into the pastoral charge of that congregaticn on Tuesday, June 27th, st ll a. m. The Kev. Me. Cameron was appointed to preach at Dandas and read the edict on the second Sabbath of June at 6 p. m. The next meeting of Presbytery will be held at Duo- on the 27th June for the iuducticn of Rev Mr. Gillis.
