Ix yesterday's issue of the daily Patriot we find the following: ‘“‘If Ananias had lived now-a-days his prevaricative ability would nover have handed his name down to poster- ity.” Our contemporary is right for once, and is evidently jealous of the distinction. With all his faults the original Ananias was neyer accused of editing a (irit newspaper.

Although he made no resist- ance, and was quite willing to go with the officers, they handenffed .him and marech- ed off with him quite triumphantly.

Notwitustanpixe the gale of westerly wind on Saturday last, Mr. Donald McDonald (gtrong), of Dundas, watked from his own place to New Perth, a distance of nearly eighteen miles. For a young man this would have been quite a feat, considering the weather that day, but when it is remembered that Mr. McDonald is an old man of 92 years of age, the merit of the undertaking is con- siderebly increased. We think Mr. McDonald ean be counted as the strongest old man in

Tue Brecken-Rattray three-mile race came off last evening. The race was one of the inost interesting and best contested ever wit- nessed in the Excelsior. At 9.40 sharp the men were set off. Brecken led for the first mile with Rattray at his heels. At the close of the first mile Rattray gave his opponent the ‘‘yo-by, but Brecken ‘‘collared” and passed Ratt-ay again before half the second mile had been covered. Brecken continued to lead until within about seven laps of the finish, when Rattray, who “held” him well, spurted and sailed ahead. This order was maintained until the finish, Rattray winning by aboat four feet. Brecken claimed that Rattray fouled him in passing the last time, hut the foul was <lisallowed and the race awarded.to Rattray. Time 11.05.

The Missing Postmaster.

Souris, March 29, William ‘Howlett, the Annandale Post- master, has not yet been found. It is now believed that he was drowned before reach- ing thedory. The facts of the sad affair areabout as follows :—On Saturday after- noon last, about dusk, Howlett noticed that

a dory of his had been blown from the wharf and was drifting away. He started in pursuit (aking with him

a dog, a pole and a evil ot rope with which to tle up the dery. Some time later the dog returned home but there was no trace of the master. This did not occasion any alarm as it was supposed Howlett would return lateron. The ni¢hfwore on, but still he did not show up.. Mrs. Howlett began to grow uneasy and alarmed the neighbors. it was then too lite to insti- tute a search that night, but on the following day (Sunday) every place where it was sus- pected he would be iikely to be found was searched but all to no avail. It was at first supposed that he had got into the boat, and the tide being strong from the shore had drifted out to the gulf. This idea is now discredited, and it is now believed that he broke through the drift ice and was drowned before reaching the dory as above stated. ANOTHER ACCOUNT.

| <A Souris correspondent writes :—It is jteared that Captain William Howlett, of | Annandale, Lot 56, lost his life on Satur- day night last ander the following circum- stances: A little before dark he started across Grand River to secure a dory that was likely to be broken up by the ice on the southern side of the river. Up to the present writing no tidings have been heard of him, although his friends have beéh searching for him diligently in every diree- tion. It is supposed that while attempting to cress the river he fell through the ice and was drowned. Howlett was the ferry- man, buoy contractor, and postmaster at Annandale. He was married to a daughter of Capt. Jones, of Newfoundland, but has no family. It is just possible that he may have been carried out to sea ou the ice, but his friénds have given up all hopes of find- ing him living. There were no oars in the dory, and if, after hauling herup on the ice, the wind (which was blowing stitily from the westward at the time) drove him out to sea, he may stil! be found alive. Two men started in search of him on Sunday evening, in the direction of Kast Point, thinking that he might have been driven up there along that coast, but they returned yesterday without having seen anything of him. Much sympathy is felt for his wife and aged mother and bro- thers under their present trying circum: stances. Some have suggested the advis- ability of sending out the Northern Light in search of him, and if there is any likeli- hood of his being out on the ice, as some suppose, the sooner she is sent in search of him the better, as no time should be lost if his life is to be saved.

Shooting Affray.

Bostox, March 238. About four o'clock this afternoon a shoot- ing affray took place which will probably result in the death of two persons, The premises had been used as a gambling room run by Edward Flanagan and David Lana-

han. The two proprietors and A. A. Albrecht were engaged in a game of faro. Aecording to Albrecht’s

story he detected Lanahan in an attempt to cheat him, when Lanahan grabbed a long iron bar and made a pass at him, Albrecht says that in self-defence he drew his revolver and fired two shots at Lana- han, one passing through his head, causing instant death. Flanagan then started for Albrecht, also with an iron bar, but was met by two or three more bullets from

Albrecht’s revolver. Flanagan's wounds are pronounced mortal. Albrecht was arrested.

Arrived.

Havirax, March 28. The steamer Newfoundland arrived to- day from St. John’s. She left the latter port at 6p. m, Thursday, and took from 5 to 6 o'clock to get through the ice Thursday night, and hada heavy narth- west gale to this port. It reports a bark, two barkentines and a brigantine outside

St. John’s, waiting opportunity to go in,

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.

——————

“Patriot” and Puitrage.”

The the © Tory

Sir, —I was amused on seeing yesterday's issue of the Patriot, in the leading article of which the editor complains on account of some investigation which he says is going on at the Railway with reference to the officials, and calls it ‘* Another Tory Out- rage.” This comes with a decidedly bad grace from the mouthpiece of a party whose whole stuck-in-trade previous to the Dominion election was the promise to oust from office every Liberal-Conservative within theirreach and fill their places with Grits. Why, sir, | would like to ask these purists if they have forgotten the caucus meeting which they held the night before the general election, at which they named their men (prospectively) to fill the various offices in the railway and other depart- ments of the public service occupied by supporters of the Government. Then they were so confident of a great political victory throughout the Dominion that they thought it unnecessary to keep these things a secret, but now, when there is a prospect of their being paid back in their own coin, they raise their hands in holy horror and howl. Well, wesay let the heathen rage. They threw down the gauntlet, and they cannot blame the Conservatives if it is taken up. The Grit orators have for years past, on the platform and on the street, announced their intention of dismissing every Censer- vative oflicial as soon as they get into power, and if their chickens come home to roost perhaps they will recognize them. They should be quite content to receive that mercy which, if the had the reins of Government, they woul accord to others. The Patriot, however, not only howls, but is full of threats and vituperation, and insinuates indirectly that

Mr. Davies will upset the Dominion generally, if his par- tizan, ‘political friends are not kept

in some of the best positions in the gift of the Government. Well, this is refreshing certainly ; but I amagine that Mr. Davies is not going to’ exercise very much influence in the distribution of the patronage of the

| years, nor forthat matter, the next

Dominion Government for the next five fifty. He will probably be a much older if not a wiser man before his party attains to. power in this go-ahead age. At all events, his bluster and gasconade count for nothing at Ottawa and when he gets up there in front of Dr. Tupper, no man knows better than he does that he is not in the Market Hall in Charlottetown.

Not wishing, Mr. Editor, to trespass too much on your columns, [ would just say in conclusion, that the supporters of the Con- servative Party here expect and demand justice at the hands of the Dominion Gov- ernment, regardless of the impotent threats of Mr. L. H. Davies and his crew.

Yours, &e,. CirizEN. March 29th, 1887.

The Liquer Traflic,

Sir,——Is it not high time that the people of this island, beth in town and country, should make up their minds about the working, or rather the non-working, of the Scott Act. It is supposed to be in force in this Province, and still liquor of the vilest kind is being scld_ wholesale and retail. Nevertheless, we are told that the Scott Act is a good act, and that all it needs to make it what it was intended to be, is the means to enforce it. Very well, let the means be supplied at once, otherwise let it be acknowledged that the. Act, so far as suppressing the sale of liquor is corcerned, isa miserable failure. For making this statement, 1 am aware that some temper- ance men will probably say that 1 have no sympathy with the temperance or total abstinence movement. It may be even said that I am either arumseller or one strongly in sympathy with the traffic. But I may tell anyone who may feel disposed to so accuse me that I am neither the one nor the other. I voted forthe adoption of the Scott Act, and am sorry to have to admit that there is scarcely a settlement on the Island but some one or more families in it are suffering from the evils of strong drink. Is the Scott Act in any way lessing these evils? I believe not. Without attempting to discuss the merits or demerits of the law supposed to be now in force, it is our duty at the present time te logk at the’ naked facts as they present themselves. And what are the facts? In all our towns and villages and along many of our highways, liquor is ld without leave or license. Inspectors of licenses, (whatevey that may mean) have been appointed, but they either cannot or will not prosecute offend ers. In the rural districts especially, the law isa dead letter. Liquor dealers in Charlottetown supply their customers in the country with any amount of the article, vad it is sold and drank with impunity all ver ‘the land. What is the remedy for

this state of affairs / Either secure the en: forcement of the Seott Act or repeal it and | it sumething niype workable in its ae

electors, If the law we have, no matter how line in theory, is practically inopera- tive, we should be prepared teeeieotl ‘dge it aud try to make matters better by bring- | tog) ybouc leyisivtion that will cheek at ey the use of intoxicating drinks among | the people, } March 28, Qut Vive. Partizan Grit Officiais.

Sik, —No svoner had the late Dominion cunpaign opened than it was given out by the Givts that, if suceessful, no quarter would be shown to ‘Tory officials.” It was proclajimed that so certain was the Tory party of defeat, that Sir John Mac- donald was packing every office in the Do- minion with: ‘Tory officials;’ and it was | boldly asserted by the organ here that it would not be very long until the Grits would have the pleasure of ejecting thein.

e

In this way ign of terror was up, and in no para the Dominion did the Grits benetit sodargely by it as in this Vrovinee.

Now that the struggle is over, the mode of dealing with certain Dominion officials who took an active part during the cam- paign, in favor of the Grits, ought to be considered without delay. When those othcials ranged themselves on the Grit side, although they were only mis-calculating upon another lease of office, they led some to believe that a change was coming.

lt is needless to say that such ofticials have forfeited publie “confidence, that ‘their usefulness is gone.” To continue them in office would not induce one of them to retract a single slander uttered by them against Sir John Macdonald’s Government, while it would be obnoxious te right think- ing men of both parties. To allow such menas Mr. J. H. Cummiskey to hold the position of postmaster, or Mr. Thomas Cum- miskey to remain as whartinger, or Mr. McRae to continue as sub-collector of Customs at Pownal, would be taxing the forbearance of the people too heavily. ‘Then ! there are those who, while not canvassing | openly, did not conceal their violent politi- cal partizanship on the night of the 22nd February, and on the following day, while the result was uncertain, but who have been very mum since the correct returns. were received. Such officials have no right to expect any political favors only what their friends are in a position to bestow upon them. ’

Whether they are disturbed or not, one thing is certain ; the Grits will never give the Conservatives credit for showing mercy to such officials. The old slanders will still be repeated, and if the Grits were return- ed to power to-morrow they would faithfully carry out the threats made by them against Conservative officials previous to the elec- tion.

Yours truly, Vorer, March 28th, 1887.

Boston Markets. Boston, March 23.

Eaas.—The tendency of prices continues in favor of buyers, under the influence ot liberal receipts, and at the close sales of Eastern were at 16 to 164c and Western at 15 to 154c per dozen. :

- Forarors.—The market is a little steadier, with a fair demand. Houlton Rose command 63 to 65c, the outside for seed lots. Hebrons rule mostly at 60 to 63c. Northern stock quiet at 50 to 55e.

Fisu—There continues to be a slow trade in fish and the market is easier on almost all kinds. Holders of Nova Scotia Mackerel have become anxious, and several lots have been forced off at lower prices, We notice sales of some 2,500 bbls No 1 at $13 to $13 40, and it is understood that more could be bought at the same rate or even lower. ~ Ex- tras are nominally at $15 to $1. No 2 are held at $18 to $14, at about the same rate as No 1. No 3 are nominal $9 per bbl. Receipts of Mackere! for the week closing Friday were 1,883 bbls, all af which were from the Pro- vinces. Reports from Provinees since Jan- uary 1 foot up 12,430 bbls against 6,626 bbls same time last year.

David Kennedy's Wealth.

The inventory of the persona) estate of the late David Kennedy, Scottish vocalist, who died at Stratford, Ont., on Oct. 13th last, which has been received, shows thas the net value of the deceased's estate, after deducting debts and funeral expenses, amounts to £7,184, 17s, lld. By a will dated Aug. 5, 1887, he directs his trustees to pay.a legacy of £100 to his sister, Miss Catherine Kennedy, and to deliver over his whole household fur- niture and other effets, to his widow, Mrs. Elizabeth Frazer or Kennedy, excepting a grand piano, which he bequeathes to his eldest daughter, and an American organ which he bequeathes to his second daughter. He further directs his trustees to pay to his widow an annuityof £300 during her life, and, in event of the marriage of any of his daughters, to pay to such daughter £100 for marriage outfit. After the death of the longest liver of himself or his wife, or upon the youngest of his children or of their survivors attaining the age of 21, which ever of these events happen last, the deceased directs the residue of his estate to be divided among his children, shore and sharef$ike. In addition to the property in Scotland left by the late Scottish vocalist (which amounts to £7,184) it is understood that the deceased leaves other £7,000 of assets in Australia. The total pro- perty left by him is £14,100 in personal es- tate and £1,400 heritable—together £15,500,
