DEATH OF ARCHBISHOP McEVAY
Former Bishop of London and a Prom -
Sent Figure in Catholic Church.
Archbishop McEvoy, of Toronto,
who was Bishop of London from 1!4!10
to 1908, died at his official residence
at Toronto early \Vedner.dxy morn-
ing of this week, after art illness of 1
nearly two yearb duration. His
death removes one of the most prom-
inent figures of the Cathol:c church
in Canada. Not an old ratan, as lite gees,
he had pecked into his less than sixty
year a vast amount ot work. His
tact, his diplomacy, and bis consider-
ation for others made him greatly be-
loved of his people, and the diocese of
London and the erchepiecopal Pee of
Toronto mom n his lose as very per-
sonal indeed. Archbishop McEvoy
was born in Lindsay, Ont., in 1852,
and received bis early education at
St. Mi:hael'e College, Toronto, and
then attended the University of Tor-
onto,
ononto, where he graduated in arty with
high bonne s. He pursued hie theo-
logical etudie• in the Grand Seminary,
Montreal, end ih 18Ft2 was ordained a
priest at Trenton by the late Arch-
bishop Cleary. Hir marked cuecees
as a priest soon attracted attention,
and his advancement was rapid.
After a very successful term at Peter -
bort; he wain removed to Hamilton,
and then to London es Bishop of this
dire -este in 1899. In 1908 he was
cleated Archbishop of Toronto..

Will Goderich regain its obi -time
supremacy in the alt manufacturing

encograging prospect that such will be
the outcome of present developments.
Fur a good many years the salt trade
here has been all but dead, only one

proposes to wanutactur•e waI bya new

A GREAT HONOR
WITHIN OUR REACH.
Goderich Has Privileg- e of Sending a Boy
Shot to Britain.
A rally and review of Boy scouts is
to take place before His Majesty the
King in Wiodw,r Park July 4th. and
the English Scouts are arranging to
entertain representative Scouts (tom
the oversee dowioiuns and coke..-.
it is proposed to send 200 boys (cull.
Canada. fifty of whom will he from
the Province of Ontario.
The local scoutmnater has been in
-orreepondence with the Provincial
secretary C. B. P. B. S.. and isasentred
that Goderich ie entitled to send the
one representative from title district,
which comprises the tour et -runnel. of
Huron, Bruce, Grey and Perth. This
is a very great honor to Goderich and
should appeal to the loyalty of our
citizens. Each municipality is re-
quired to contribute 21200 towards its
representative's expenses, which
coven everything, and the boy will be
pr)perly looked after throughout tee
The Mcouts are working hard for
tint place in the cont.'.►[ now being
heal for representative, and which-
ever boy wins out be is sure of being
a credit to his town and to his country
in that great gathering of Boy Scouts
from all over the British Empire. It
rests entirely with the liberality of the
citizens of Goderich wbether they
share this honor or not.
Boy Scout work is necessarily of
such a nature that it does not fre-
quently come before the notice of the
Public. The work is carried on quietly
to out-of-the-way corner.. Nevert he -
lees it has become a force, the out-
come of which no man can conjecture.

WHAT SOUTHAMPTON THINKS.
Looks for C. P. R. Conuection by On-
tario West Shore Railway.
Southampton, May 8 - Scout haimp-
ton may yet be an important C. P.
R. port, according to the views of
some people who have been studying
the situation.
The .outs of the Sitncne, Grey and
Bowe- Railway, adverti-ed at the time
the eh:u ter wee recently applied for
crests d rnuch inter• -t 5.5 tLt. section,
and it is stared on reliable enthority
tom the company does no- intend tet
build the line, het to a -ll the chartet'

electric erred, to run nnite nut of
(lode, ich, deny a report that the ('. P.
R. is to take over that line, but this is
not accepted ss conclusive in all quar-
tets here.
There is a belief that the Canadian
Pacific proposes to have "ltirwately a
line running from Gndench through
Kincardine and Southampton and
eastward (the route of t he Simen.,
Grey and Bruce).
The only C. P. R. line in this part
of the Province at present is that. to

rather a delicate one for the director'
to ndjnet. With the limited amount
to be disposed of, and their desire that
each township should have its fair
proportion of holdings in the local
company, the directors have decided
that no allotments shall be made
until the 15th inst.. when every pe. -
son in the various townships ahaT8
have an equal chance with those in
any other township to secure an 'in-
terest in thin absolotrly safe local in-

te give every one an equal ebance is
rometbing that deaet•ves r•ecngnirlmi.

would be glad to take the whole

The directors prefer that the whole
