The boy scouts linr-d the avenue at

the entrance to the ground and sal- uted the Royal -party as it arrived.

TORONTO, June 16.-Ten days ago

a man with handsboundand ap- parently in an ~.exhausted condition was found in a boxcar in the West Toronto yards. He told an extra- ordinary story of having been taken by unknown persons from a "blind pig" and placed in the car ten days before his liberation. His story was so suspicious that after being taken' to a hospital he was arrested and sent to jail as a vagrant. He has now been identified as a dssarter from the United States army at Haynes, West Virginia, having left there in September, 1913. He was identified by n circular.

GRUESOME SHADOW FROM RED LIGHT DISTRICT.

One of Cily’s Old Moral

Plague Spots Now Occu- pied by Mission Buildings - Showing Progress of Moral Reform in City.

M0.\"l`RlflAL, June JG.-The addi-

tion of ri new house to the old build- ing occupied by the llfoutreul City llission, which was once one of the must ovil of Cadieux street, is u- notablc mark of progress in the work of the mission during its four years of life. This house was one of tho most evil of the Red Light dis~ trict. In the course of making the necessary repairs and renovations thc skeletons and disjointed bones of infants were found in profusion, buried in the woodwork and under the floors.

In an up-Stair garret, nun' trans-

formed' into a cosy class room for children of the Sunday School, were discovered most of the human rc- tizialns, the finding of which has nev- cr before been made public. In the floor, under n sliding board were the remains of children wrapped in pieces of old garments. In other rooms too the some horrible evi-

'dencesl of the former cliuractev 'of the

place were discovered. '

Vest'-rdriy morning the annual ex-

The best tradi- tions of .\otre Dame in regard to the

‘liigh-class standard of training irr-

partcd in its needlework and nrt de- plgrtmeuts \vu.: fully maintained hy this y~;ar's exhibition of both class \\'HI`I< and the work of the studio. Many expressions of admiration and praise were uttered by visitors as they i:io\'cd from one section of th-e exhibits to another. The exh bite were 'in-my in 'number and excellent an to their standard and worth, ano it would bc perhaps superfluous .to any that both students and teachers have o:i,rned the highest encomiums.

There were many specimens of plain

and fancy' needlework. each class, starting from the “-baby class,"- iots of _six and seven years old with their DIIHH ha-n-dkerchiefs-and going through the various grades oi’ ad- v.-inccment up to the first class, whose exhibits of embroidereld night gowns in French embroidery, eyslet \Vf11'k and punch work were excep- tionally seed. both as to design -ina v-'-~rkmnr.sliip. Two noteworthy ex- hit-its frorr the junior class were those of I-. Conway and ll. Hogan, each six years old, who showed ex-' cellent Iiandiferchiefs. '

The rxffrnition of paintings und

drawings was magnificent, and whe- ther in water colours, oil-B. pastel or trayon work, B very high standard was evident. Right from the initial stages of the drawing: class, the copying and' crayon work from casts to the finished paintings of- the advanced pupil of thc studio, the course of training was plainly trace-I able.

, Prince I-Idward Island, through its valuable and fairuus fox industry, is becoming almost a household word not only on the American continent but also across the ocean, the prov- ince having been time and again brought prominently before readers in the old country by magazine ar- ticles, which were nothing short of advertisements. In the April num- ber of the “I’ictorial," a largely circulated magazine ,published in London, the following appears in ro- gard to thc industry:

"The Canadian farmer and stock-

lirecder has discovered a new industry which is at once novel, yet one that is proving a veritable gold-mine, namely, that of fox farming. In ,many parts of the Ilominion fox -ranches are now to be found, but the great centre of the industry is-Prince lidward Island. More than eighty per cent, oi all the captive foxes in Canada are kept on this Island. Thanks to the possession of ii clim- ate and soil that ensure an ideal weiglit, texture and colour of the skins, the Island has become the greatest fox~hrecdiug centre in the world. It is, of course, the high prices obtained for these skins which have resulted in the esti-iblishment of this somewhat strange and novel in- dustry. lifvery won.nn loves fine furs, because no product of the loom and the rlressntakcr is so becolniug to beauty and pluinness alike. Yet, in spite of the skill and enterprise of ten thousand fur-hunters, there- are not enough furs to go round.- Conseqnently every year sees the cost of the finer furs growing great- cr. Indeed, unless steps are taken to increase the numher of foxes none hut a millionaire will be able to buy furs in the near future. _»\ black fox coat of not more than three skins, norn nt ii recent horse show in New "ork, cost the owner over $3,000. Hundreds of costs sell for

der is that no one thought ol breed- ing these creatures in captivity be- . fore, for it was not until 1910 that
