AnorHer Cave-tn.—Yesterday evening the basin of the fountain on Queen Square was again filled with water. During the night, however, it caved in over the sewer

near the eastern side where the clay had not

been tightly packed, and the water fell

several inches. When the damage was dis-

covered this morning, the basin was allowed

to run dry, and men were set to work to re-

build the portion which had fallen in. —_——a——-

Tus Wrspow Breakive Case.—The Sti- pendiary Magistrate to-day enguired into the ease of the policemen who, it was alleged, re- fused ,to arrest the young man charged by Watchman Merchant with breaking a pane of glass in the window of Prowse Bros. store on Saturday evening. The officers concerned and Mr. B. ©. Prowse were examined. Asa result of the enquiry, the Magistrate ascertained that (i) the watchman

did not capture the stone-thrower, but charged a young man he met on the street with being the guilty person, which s:atement the youag man denied ; (2) the policemen re-

fused to make the arrest desired without a!

warrant, as they had not seen tlie offence com mitted, that no blame could be attached to the police men. In this connection it is well for h public to understand that no ofiicer of justice has a right te make au arrest aniess he is armed with the proper warrant obtained on a sworn information, or himself sees the offence committed. In this case the proper course for the night watchman—who, we presume, is sworn in a3 a special constable—was to have arrested the man on the spot and called upon the officers to assist him in the capture and conveying of the man to the police station.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR, Netting Fish.

Sin,— With all due deference to Mr. Mc- Kay's knowledge of Wheatly River, may | be permitted to state that having fished in the river, say twenty years, | ought to know of what I spéak. I have been on the river severa] times this year, and no later than last week, when I had to come to the conclusion that it was useless now, as far as trout fishing is concerned. I might also say, with all modesty, that when I can’t eatch fish with fly or hook the fact that there is none im the river is as good as proved.

To go further: I imagine that those whoZinduce people to visit our Island, with glowing descriptions of our splendid sea- trout fishing, are, to say the least of it, rather over-doing the thing, and should have some regard for the feelings of the poor angler, who after scouring our Island in vain for the magnificent trout of which he has read, has to give it up with blessings on the head of somebody. Another kind of fishing which I neglected to mention is the mackerel fishing in our splendid har- bor. A finer sport can hardly be procured, and when you are lucky enough to catch a few of these fine fish you have, at any rate, something solid to show for your trouble.

year one of our local fishermen tried to seine the harbor for mackerel. He caught nothing worth catching, but he effectually drove all the fish out and spoilt the sum- wer's fishing of those amongst us, who like *rundown to the Three Tides. This is hot & square deal, and should in some way be prevented. We hope that it won't happen again this year.

Monrreat, July 23. A leading official of the Canadian Pacific | Railway, speaking of the vutlook for the | new Short Line, said to-day that so far the | passenger business had been all that could | be desired, and that the outlook was most encouraging. Arrangements are now being perfected for the running of freight trains, as boading arrangements are now satisfac- torily agreed upon with the United States. The prospects are that that branch of the business will be very remunerative.

. Beauty

Is desired and admired by all. Among the things which may best be done to enhance personal beauty is the daily use Of Ayer’s Hair Vigor. No matter what the color of the hair, this prepa- ration gives it a lus- tre and pliancy that SY adds greatly to its 3 charm. Should the hair be thin, harsh, dry, or turning gray, Ayer’s Hair Vigor will restore the color, bring out a new growth, and render the old soft and shiny. For keeping the scalp clean, cool, and healthy, there is no better preparation in the market.

“*T am free to confess that a trial of Ayer’s Hair Vigor has convinced me that it is a genuine article. Its use has

not only caused the hair of my wife and daughter to be

Abundant and Glossy,

but it has given my rather stunted mus- tache a respectable length and appear- ance.”’—R. Britton, Oakland, Ohio.

““My hair was coming out (without any assistance from my wife, either). I tried Ayer’s Hair Vigor, using only one bottle, and I now have as fine a head.of hair as any one could wish for.” ~—R. T. Schmittou, Dickson, Tenn.

‘*T have used Ayer’s Hair Vigor in my family for a number of years, and re- gard it as the best hair preparation I know of. It keeps the scalp clean, the hair soft and lively, and preserves the original color. My wife has used it for a long time with most satisfactory re- sults.” — Benjamin M. Johnson, M. D., Thomas Hill, Mo.

** My hair was becoming harshand dry, but after using half a bottle of Ayer’s Hair Vigor it grew black and glossy. I cannot express the joy and gratitude I feel.’’—- Mabel C. Hardy, Delavan, Il
