The ferocity of the attack convinced the huntens that they had to deal with eagles of the crested variety, and. that there were eaglets in the nest, The hunters carried rifiee and pre- pared to rob the nest. While one took up a position where he could command the neat with his gun, the other climbed a tree. Twenty shots were fired at the birds as they swoop- ed and screamed around the tree. Logan got near enough to the nest to see that it ,contained the young birds, , but because of the ferocity of the par- ent birds they gave up the attempt, deterniined to -make another trip. The male eagle followed them for a mile, threatening every moment to come to close quarters with the hunters in spite of their repeated efforts to shoot him. A week later, equipped with ropes and tools, they returned to the spot, and were again met with a fierse as- sault. In spite of many shots the eagles fought fiercely, but the eaglets were finally secured. Then the hunt- ers began their retreats alternately dodging and firing at the two great parent birds. For five miles the eagles continued their attack, and at times came to very close quarters with the hunters. Only when the inhabited sections were approached. did the eagles give up the fight. The eaglets are now in care of St. Boniface Col- lege. Tlaey are rare specimens, and though only a few weeks old, display the ferocity of their species.

The way to avoid serious results is to cleanse the wound and apply Zinn - Palk.

The charges and Counter -charges ol political corruption which were recent- ly voiced in connection with the Mani, toba provincial elections have led cer- tain observers in the Maritime Pro- vinces to recall a political incident in Prince Edward Island several yearii ago. An ardent supporter of one of the Island's well-known public men, came to him during a campaign, in great distress of mind. "Mr.---," he said, "them Tories • are using rum and money in this fight. Yes, sir, rum and money." The candidate was appropriately shocked. "I can 'hardly believe that such practices are being pursued," he said, 'are you quite sure?" "Am I sure? Why, look here, Mr. , I was asking john Smith last night to vote for you; but I couldn't get much satisfaction from him. -I offered him $2 and still he wouldn't promise. Then (in a whisper), I slip- ped a little bottle into his pocket and he said .he would come back and see me later. And I watched him going • across the street to the Tory rooms 'and be never came back. Yes, sir, the Tories are using rum and money, arid it.eught to be stopped."
