OTTAWA, August 97For years
the /Canadian government in any
business requiring authentic informa-
tion- es to tho levels of th Great'
Lake, has -been _ obliged to rely on
United States records. The Ameri-
can government has been taking the
levels for years while the department
of public works has attempted the
work ‘in a. haphazard manner. 'l‘his
dependence was especially mar'/ed in
the prpceedings relating to th_s Chic-
ago drainage canal. The naval ser-
Vice department has now made ar-
rangements to-take systematic re-
cor s of- the levels so that hencefor-
ward Canada will have her own

$100,000 FOR A KISS.
PARIS, Aug. 8-One hundred and
forty thousand dollars for n. kiss giv-
en unwillingly, Such is the price, the
largest in history, paid by a young,
beautiful and tremendously wealthy
Parisleune, a widow, for a'salute im-
pressed upon her lips by a bogus
American banker. But she was black-
mailed out of that great sum. 'l‘rlc. -
ed into a compromising situation she
paid one hundred and fortv thousand
dollars for silence to a trio of inter-
national swindlers. A false police-
man was used to scare her. -
This astounding fact was revealed
by the arrest of the master black-
mailcr who, at the mom`ent, calls
himself Pierre de Courvaiiles, but
who has many aliases. Recently he
has adopted the title of Prince de
Sagas, the secondary title of Helio,
Duke de Tailyrand, Anna Go\1ld’s hus-
band, which he handed over to their
sou Howard. When he was taken de
Courvailles had a hundrcd thousand
dollars in his possession, half a mii-
lion francs, a great fortune in
France.

heat, but owing to a former accident,

Wrigley was on he-r bad behavior and

been the most exciting race of the

captured fourth. When rounding the
first corner in number one heat, the
tire came off of Laura' Merrill's sul-
