+-BOAT SERVICE-Tho Grand River ferry boat has been over- hauled and refitted and is now 1n operation. Wc are glad to report that it is again under the command ol-‘Mr. Clnbrlel Morrison. For some time it was doubtful that Mr. Mor- rison would be left in his position as there were n few Liberals demand- i' his scalp. A petition ivas cir- clllated lll the districts adjoining the ferry and signed by almost cv- ery householder‘ irrespective of pol- itical belief, and forwarded to the proper authorities on whom it had the desired cllcct. Mr. Morrison lives beside the ferry and had given such t-ilicldent and courteous ser- vice for several years past that the travelling public was loathe to lose his scrvicrs. -- --- <o>- PERSONALS —Mr. James Trainer, Southport, was a recent visitor to Grand River where his bl‘Ol'.llf‘l'.Ml'.

THE CHARLOTTETOWN GUARDIAN

The Late Archibald MaoKinnon

F r l e n d s a n d acquaintances: throughout the cty alld Island will learn with regret of the sad 600th of Archibald McKinnon of this city who passed away last Saturday ev- ening after a lingering illness. which he bore with patience and fortitude.

The late Mr. McKinnon was in his '11- year. He was born in Dc Sable. Prince Edward Island. where for some years he taught school.

In later years he was a faithful. courteous and energetic employee of the Customs Department in this city, where he made a legion of friends.

His ready smile and friendly greeting both on and of! duty is known to thousands both here and abroad.

He leaves to mourn their loss a widow and two sons. Frank and Ar- chibald. to whom the Guardian ex- tends sincerest and heartfelt sym- pathy.

The funeral takes place from his late residence 183 King Sh, this af- ternoon at 3 o'clock to the Peoples Cemetery.

The evening service was very well attended and the Pastor, Rev. Mr. Turner, took as his subject.

He said that people to-day want to get to bedrock and not fine dia- tlnctions and as basic facts we could believe about Jesus that He really lived upon this earth; that He fit.- ted the Jewish prophecies regard- ing a Messiah; that Ha made the moat astonishing pretensions that any man ever made, and they did not seem out of pidcc when made by Him; that He was the greatest teacher that ever lived and that these facts coupled with His sin- leaa life placed film upon a plane higher than ordinary man.

The Hon. Mr. Manlon complain- ed that the post office estimates had since 1021 increased at the rate 01.000000 0. year which 1J1°118ht inc much. The Hon. Mr. Venlot declared that it had been found that as expenditures increas-' ed. revenues increased.

Important featules of the esti-l mates were increases of salaries of $420,940 of "which $187,020 is due to statutory increases approved by tho civil service commission and the balance to additional assistance re- quired.

Rural postmaaters. whose sal- aries were $00 per annum get $100 in future. The percentage increase

as high as $200, necessitating a tog. a1 increase of $1,250,000. |

The Postmaster-General gave‘ particulars of cost of new aerial service from Moncton to Magdalen Islands and from Mal Bay (in Gaspe) to Anticostl, and in North- ern Ontario and Quebec owing to mining developments.
