first name was Roland it was immedi-
ately cut down to "Roly," and Rely it re-

To -day that boy is known officially as
Mr. R. C. Harris, head of tbe Works De-
partment of the City of Toronto. andthe
salary he is to draw is $8,000 a year. He
has never Iteld any position outside of
the municipal administration of the city.
Be has never run for office. He has just
attended to the business that lay at -his
hand in his civic service job, and he has
got on. Each year has seen a new admin-
istration, installed, but the good-natured
fat boy. and the man lie developed into,
quarrelled with none of them. At the
same time he had initiative to formulate
plans and the force to carry them into
effect. He was some years getting to be
a chief clerk, but from that point his
progress has been rapid. The control of

MINISTER OF EDUCATION 'MOVES.
As soon as the new wing of the Parlia-
ment Buildings is completed there will be
a more than usually interesting moving.
The Education Department, which for half
a century has occupied, quarters in the
Normal School building, occupying an en-
tire block between Gould, Gerrard, Church
and Victoria streets, will at last make ita
headquarters with the other departments.
of the Government in Queen's Park. This
will. no doubt, be -some' convenience to
the Minister and the staff, who have been
obliged to make a half-hour's journey
every time they wished to consult the
Premier or the other departments; but it
is safe to say that the old Normal echool
buildine will be left, with many regrets.
The ehief educational associations of the
Province cluster around the building. The
Minister's quarters there have long been
famous for their spaciousness and ele-
gance, and it is doubtful if the depart-
ment will find as much comfort in their
now quarters as they are Waving in the
old.
The final disposition of the museum and
art gallery, which has long been one of
the show_ -Places of Toronto, has not yet
been finally decided. It May remain
where it is, or it may be divided between

EXTEItMITION OF 1t.TS AND
MICE.
If it were generally known that
there is no trouble to rid a. house,
barn or any building of rats and
mice by the use of Gillett's Lye, it
is doubtful if the article could be
made as fast as it would be used
for this purpose alone. The pro-
cess connected with using it is
very simple, tho plan being to
sprinkle a little of the article in
and around the holes made by these
pests in floors, partitions, etc. In
addition to this it is well to use a
thin piece of board about a foot
square, or even smaller, and make
a complete circle of the lye on the
board about a quarter of an inch
deep, and inside of the circle place
some meat or cheese. In endeav-
oring to get at the bait the feet of
the rats and mie,e will be butned,
and the whole colony, whether
large or small, will immediately
disappear from the premises.
The plan is worth trying, but the
good kind—Gillett's Lye—should be
procured. Refuse the many cheap
imitations and substitutes.

noen, when the Government survey
steamer La Caneditanne crethed

which were carried away. In the
onrush of water from the level
above the steamer was thrown back
against the rear gates, eznashing
and pulling them out with her, thus
giving the water in the entire level
above free seope to rush through to
the short level below. The mighty
rush of water carried the vessel
back with it more than a hundred
yards, landing it on the easterly
bank of the ea -nal, where the _rough,
stiff bottom severely punctured the
hull, causing the expensive vessel
to settle to the bottom of the canal,
At the time of the ateklent five

ing the water front lock 22 level was
