thing for Cbarlottetowiirgiving employ- ment to it considerable uniber of pee-‘ ple. A switch of the railway has been 3 run in alongside tho building to lac-| iitate the handling of the' factory*s- outfit. ' ‘

NEW TANK STEAMER HERE.-

The Imperial Oil Company’s steamer Icolite, Capt. Watkins, due here for some days, arrived in port= yesterday morning with a cargo of gasoline' from Chicago and kerosene from Sarnia. The lcolito is at new tank steanierjl having bee-n in service only three months. She was built by the Im- perial Oil Cp., ut Collingwood, Ont., and ~ls s splendid example of Cana- dian workmanship being up-to-date in every’ way. She goes from here to Halifax thence to New York where’ she wllL be fitted with oil-driving - equipment. She will run 'between New York and Mexico during the wiii~ ter and return here In the spring. She starts unloading her cargo of oil to- day. V

OF LOCAL INTEREST.-Tlie follow- ing recent nowg with regard to chap- lains at the front will be of Presby- tefrian interest: Major the Rev. C. W. Gordon (Ralph Connors) who has been at the front for it year, is now in England, and will shortly sail for Canada to assist in it special recruit- ing campaign. Captain the Rev. George Farqullar, formerly oi’ Hamp- ton and Rotliesay (N. B.), succeeds- Major Wells at Shorii'clift`e, England. Captain the Rev. J. B. Paulin, oi’ Si. Gi‘les chulrch, Hamilton (0nt.),» han been appointed chaplain at Crowbor- ough, England. Captain the Rev. G. S. Mitchell, late of Oxford (N. S.), who went as chaplain in the Dalhousie Med- ical unit, has resigned his commis- sion and is on the water, neturnifig to Canada. ' , ._ `

LATE BATHING.-Four __of the members of the Hillsboro _ Boating” Club, (in gc-od sta_i_idiiig)_`had`_tt plunge into the water of the harbor yester- day :ind report that the water was not as cold as the frosty wind afte-r they got out of it. However the late bathing of last year, which wound sip the season on the 4th December 1,915 has beentbeaten this year just ‘by one week. As the steam-was coming oil- the bathers (like 'a warm/ horse in cold weather) it was unanimouslyde- cided to quit for this year, and take bathing suits and towels home. Should

record they are at liberty Ito. do .so. - and get ,into the swim, but for divers' reasons, the few who have kept up this most exhilarating sportwvill bathe at home iintil spring time comes once

again. ` .

BIG PRICE FOR LOBSTEFiS.-

One doesii't have _to be more than middle-aged to remember when he could bliy all the lobsters he wanted of good fait-` size for five or terncsnts n piece, says the Gloucester Times. The good old days el cheap food have gone as irrevocably in the lobster business as they have in other lines. Last week a Maine man bought two l sters from it fisherman. paying the la est aniount that he had ever paid

ness. - tively 12 and 11% pounds and the ilsherman rece/ived for them just $7.12. Oi' course they were unusually large lobsters, -but so too was the price unusuallylarge. _
