Kings Life In Danger On Visit To Halifax Port

HALIFAX, June 19.- (C.P.)— King George may owe his life to Nicholas Power, ex-chlef of the Halifax police department, who celebrates his 90th birthday this month.

Back in the latter half of the century, when “Nick" Power was a. sergeant on the Halifax police force, two strangers arrived in Halifax and proceeded to take a. deep interest in the warships an- chorcd in the stream.

For several days after their ar- rival thcy hired boatmen with 1n- structions to row around the men o’ war, and they spent the trips in a. careful scrutiny of the anchored ships,

Power got wind of their activities and quietly began to train the two men. A few days later, he took ad- vantage cf their absence to go through their baggage 2n the hotel room they occupied together.

The search ciimaxed startlingly in the discovery of 48 pounds of dynamite, a Boynton floating suit and complete apparatus fordeto- hating the explosive from a dist- ance.

Power immediately arrested the men. Under questioning they gave their names as Holmes and Breech. They had come to Halifax from the United States, they said, to blow up warships, government buildings. and other property of the British government.

‘Iheir chief purpose, they reveal- 13d, lutd been to destroy one ship in particular, H. M. S. Canada, on which the present King ‘George was serving as a. midshipman. And had it not been for Sergeant Power's quick action in averting the plot, it is possible the two dynamlters would have accomplished that and,

The sketch showed the shore to be opposite a. certain spot on the main street of the city (King Street) and within a short distance of "park statues" (in King Square).

Scenic Map OI Canada is World Fair Attraction

SAINT JOHN, N. B., June 19.- (C.P.) — Gordon "Monty" Ham- mond, whose huge scenic map of Canada is one of the features at the Chicago World's Fair, was well known in Saint John when he lived here 80 years ago, painting signs and theatre scenery in this vicinity. He is a eon of the late Mr. and Mrs. John Hammond of this city,

Hammond started out as o pic- colo player with a. local orchestra. Contact with theatres aroused his interest in scenic painting. With the help of the late A. J. Charlton his technique improved, and pro- ceeding to Boston he enlarged upon a. career of painting theatre scen- ery.

His big opportunity came with a commission by the Canadian Na- tional Railways to travel over Canada painting scenery. His con- sequent exhibit, u. travelling panor- ama 200 feet long and 15 feet high showing all the salient features of Canada, won the C. N. R. grand prize at the Antwerp Exhibition a. few years ago, and he was awarded a gold medal,

Sergeant W.‘ S. Hammond, of the Saint John harbor police and brother of "Monty", recalls how the artist created this scene. “He hid a church for a studio, and other artists were working for him," said the Sergeant. "He'd go along with a big brush sketching in the rough outline. His staff would follow him, putting in the detail. Where he wanted them to fill in red, he'd put an R, and if he wanted green he'd put a. G, and so on. And pretty soon s picture was taking shape on that great long sheet,

"Monty would have e. small pic- ture on his arm that he'd sketched when he was travelling over the country. This would form a section of the panorama and he would put in the outline of it on the big sheet," said the sergeant.

When he started his latest com- mission for the World's Fair, Hammon went to e. Montreal busi- ness man.

"I want a place at least 200 feet long and 50 feet high with a roof that won't leak," he said. "I have a. painting to do."

After the laughter subsided the business man learned that Ham- mond was serious-that the paint- ing was to be 130 feet long and 30 feet high. A manufacturing plant's Qxtension in Montreal west fillled the bill.

Hammond then ordered 1.300 feet of special linen a yard wide. clean- ing out most of the supply in Mon- treal. Four sewing machines, ten neamstresses and two men were en- gaged to make the big sheet, even- tually tacked to the top of frame- work. Seventy-five pounds of whitening werg applied to the linen, and with e. stafl of ten artists three of them women, Hammond set to work.

When the day of uripment ar- rived the map waswound on two 40-foot rollers, It arrived in Chl- cagc without mishap and the frame was added after the scene had been nailed into place in a prominent section of the fair .F'loodiighting by 14,000 watts gave the panorama a striking effect. _

Completes 14th Voy- age to West Indian and South Ameri‘ can Waters — As Master of Gahadian National Vagabond Cruise Freighter Goiborne Docked at Montreal on Wed- nedsay

Canadian National Vagabcnd Cruise freighter Col- borne docked at Montreal in the early hours of June 14th, the Mas- ter, Capt. H. J. Hubley had com- pleted his l4th voyage tc West 1h- dian and South American waters in command of the vessel. Captain Hubley has his home in Shediac, N. 13., but during the summer months when the Oolborne sails from Mon- treal. he enjoys very little home

Antigua, where the heroic Nelson made Mater-y, and Grenada, gem of the Carri-beep. Also, she has loaded cocoa, coffee and molasses. ‘

The Colborne carried s fair sized list of "Vagabond Cruise" peach- gers who spoke 1n glowing terms of the charm of the trip and the kind- ness they had received from Cap- tain Hubley and his officers.

It was pointed out by several ple- sengere that it is absurd to pretend that it is unduly hot in the West Dulles in the summer months. “Vfhyfl declared one, “it was hotter coming’ up the St. Lawrence than staying in the West Indieel"

Others coarunented on the steed- ily increasing sentiment in the West Indies in favor of trade with Canada.

The Coibome shares this West Indian "Vagabond cruise" run with the stcumer Chomedy and during the voyage ‘just completed the two ships met at Antigua. The Chome- dy was then proceeding south while the Colborne was on her way north. Another proof of the hold which Canadan trade and shipping is hav- ing in the colonies to the south was seen at Bermuda. where the only big shipsin the harbor be- longed to Canadian National Steamshipe. This was all the nzore significant having regard to the Atlantic monster luxury liners which call at Bermuda. The CWO luxurious "Lady" boats, the Indy Rodney and Lsdy Somers, both eu- gaged in the West Indian trade, t0- gether with the Colborne we're all drawn up alongside each other in the harbor at Hamilton, Bermuda. During the lest two years while he has been on this run, Captain Hubley has covered nearly 100,000 miles. Before that he made twenty trips in the same waters on another ship named the Colbume. Starting with a. sound ut- lence of sailing vessels, Captain Hubiey has been following the call of the sea for the last thirty years. For fourteen years he has been in tho employ of Canadian National Steamships. During the trip south, the Colbome called at Charlottetown, P. E. I., thus giving captain Hubiey a chance to visit his mother, now nearing eighty years of ege..1i‘or it was in Prince Edward Island that Captain Hubley was born and while he has settled down with his wife and family in Shediac, his mother has remained in Prince Edward Island. The Coiborne should have called at Cheriottctown on the previous voyage north to unload a cargo of molasses but this was rendered impracticable owing to ice conditions around Charlotte- town. So after loading up It Mon- treal with Canadian goods for 49. livery in the Wat Indies she eel-

A COOKIE PRECAUTION

~If you like to have home-made cookies on hand it is a good idea to keep two jars filled-one which the children may go to when they please and another which they are not allowed to touch. This way, you'll always have cookies on hand when guests drop in for tea or when you have unexpected dinner guests. Cookies sewed with fresh or stewed fruit make a dessert for any meal.
