Among; those who lost their lives on the Empress of Ireland were Mr. and Mrs, James Grigg of Brltieh Columbia.. Mr. Grigg is a brother of Mrs, Wm. Hopper of Morrie, who with her step - eon, Mr, Harry Hopper, went to Que- bec to identify the bodies but they had evidently not been recovered, and Mrs. Hopper and son returned borne on Feeley evening, Mr. Hopper received. a postcard containing the following ;- Quebec, May 28th, 1914, Dear Sister and Brother, --Just a few tines to let you know that we are sail- ing today from here to Liverpool on this ship. We started from home on the 71.h and went south to New Orleans and New York, ahout,COi miles, Will hope to see you later an our return trip. From your loving brother, J. Go igg and wife." .Mr. Grigg was. born in Belgrave a- bout fifty.five years ago apd left for Manitoba a few years ago, taking up farming, after which he went to Fraser Valley, British Columbia, where he and his wife prospered in farming and sheep raising. He recently began a holiday, visiting friends in New York and New Orleans. The intended going for a visit to the old country, and as he stated on this card, he intended to visit his birth- place in Belgrave. Death of Mr. Thos. J. flession. The following is taken from the Clinton News -Record and refers to a former citizen•.who resided for many years in Wingham :- Thoe. J. Hession, a well known resi- dent of • town, died at his home on Huron street on Sunday evening. He was surrounded by his wife and chit• dren, the latter having been summon- ed to his bedside several days before• wben it was known that the end was near, He departed as he had lived, quietly and peacefully, and thus en- tered into life eternal. The deceased was born in Dublin, Ireland, June 27th, 1840, and was the youngest son of John and Maria Hes- e•ion, his father being a barrister -at• law in the Four Courts. He had the misfortune to lose his parents when still a babe, his maternal grandmother then taking charge of him. He was educated at King's College, Dublin. On the death of bis grandmother when he was a lad of sixteen he left Ireland and came out to the home of his uncle, the late Dr. Henry Cole. In 1800 he married Sarah Foster Martin, by whom he is survived. Hie children, six of whom are living, are; Mre. Douglas Muir of Rochelle, N. Y. ; Mrs. (Dr.) Cunningham, Toronto ; John W. hessian, Stratford, Conn. ; U. A, Ilession, Toronto University ; Mrs. J. 13. Morrison, Laugside, Ont., and Mrs, A. G. Read of Pittsburg, Pa., all of whotn were with him dur- ing bis last hours with the exception of Mrs. Read, whose health would not permit her to travel. • Mr. Hessian was a man of sterling worth, honesty and integrity being the foundation of hls cbaracter. In religion he was a member of the Plynioutb Brethren: The funeral, which was private, took place from hie late residence to Clinton cemetery on Tuesday after- noon. The services were conducted by Mr. Somerville of Brantford. RATTLED THE BANDIT. Curious Experience With a Band of Mexican Cutthroats. Everybody in Mexico goes about arm ed. Even the passenger trains on most of the railroads are guarded by detach• meats of soldier's who ride in special cars, while on every station platform are seen rural guards armed with cant - bines ready for an emergency. For. eigners have to adapt tbetnselves to the custom or going about armed. or else make themselves unfavorably con- spicuous in the eyes of the natives. It was t novel experience, however, to see railroad surveyors, when occupied with their peaceful work, armed to tho teeth with knives and revolvers. As a matter of fart, arms were rarely re- quired in Mexico as a means of de - tense. ' As everywhere else, it is well to remember, however, to keep cool and forget that you are armed in case of a quarrel. In this connection the principal locat- ing engineer of the road had an expe- rience at which le displayed some nerve. Ile had 'to make a reconnois- sance of a mountain range called the Sierra Gorda, said to be infested with cutthroats. He was warned to let the district alone, but duty prevailed, and he Went. When reaching a rancho near the summit at sundown he and his attendant were met by four then whose law breaking propensities re quired no further introduction then their hold faces. They took bo d o f the party's horses, told the engineer and his attendant to dismonnt and made they no effort to conceal the fact thnt t , were there for business. The engineer7incer complied stnilio g1 y , and going lip to the leader, mystlBed that individual by asking him to step nslde "1 non told that it is unsafe to travel in these rnountnlns," he whispered, "win you not therefore oblige res b r taking care of my property tad nllew as to rennin 'tinder your roof until morning" With that he handed over tie watch, money and other th!ngs. attci the nstonlshed thief, who wits probably for the tit:st titne In his life treated to the novelty o Y being Mist ed, not only let the engineer love the best in his house, but handed biam back his property in the inertling end fur Wished hint with two eltttbronts tc scree as an escort during, the rest of his lenriley.--Max T.

The town was ruled for hundreds of years by a sultan until the English took charge. There is still a sultan, who receives a salary from the English govern, went, but some day he will be deposed, and there will be no further pretense of a sultan having anything to do with the government. The old palace of the sultan -an ugly affair, which looks like a boarding house -is Used for of- fices by the British, Near the palace is the harem, now deserted, since the present sultan has but one wife. The sultan, who had trouble with the English, was educated in England and spent much of his time and all of his revenues in Paris. One day an Eng- lish nolisp gunboat sailed into the harbor, and the captain told the gay sultan that he had been ousted. The sultan resented the high handed proceeding and sent word to the defenders of his dignity to sink the English gunboat and put the insolent captain in the dungeou. There was an old fort near the pal• ae<e, on the walls of which were mounted a few rusty cannon. The defenders of the sultan tried to fire these at the English gunboat, but they burst, one by one, and almost wiped out the sultan's defensive force. The captain of the English gunboat then began dropping shells into the palace and, with one solid sbot, sank the sul- tan's navy -a small vessel' which car- ried four guns. -F. W Howe in Howe's Monthly, MORE -DAYLIGHT. Putting Forward the Clock Mooted Again In Britain. If popular approval as signified by the resolutions adopted in many Town Councils has any influence with mem- bers of Parliament, the Daylight Sav- ing Bill recently read in the British House of Commons for the first time this session ought to pass unanimous- ly: The proposal is that on the third Sunday in April of each year standard time should advance one hour, that day being only twenty-three hours in length, This would have the effect of deducting one of the bright morning hours when most people are asleep and adding it to the evening when we are awake, and should find it most useful. This advantage would be re- tained all summer, till the third Sun- day in September, when the standard time would recede one, hour, and be- come' once more Greenwich time. The Corporations of London, Manchester, 1 Liverpool, Glasgow, and Birmingham are the principal local authorities out of four hundred and thirty which have passed resolutions in favor of the ' adoption of this scheme. If the bill were now law, the country would be enjoying its advantages, which would gradually become more marked till, in the height. - of summer, out-of-door 1 sports could be carried on till ten o'clock. Even in that part of the year when people begin to say "the even- ings are drawing in," it would be quite practicable to do what is only now possible in June. It may well be asked why has not such a simple measure passed ere now, seeing that it has been introduc- ed more than once into Parliament. There are several reasons, one of which is the conflicting reports of the two Select Committees which have considered the hill. Another is lack of time to give it the attention it de- serves. It is not a Government meas- ure. for the Administration has not realized what gratitude they would win from all classes of the people once the law was in force. Another reason is that certain somewhat hide• hound theorists call it "gerrymander - hi with the clock,' rendering time, which d'ncnds on the sun, Neely arti- ficial. These objectors forget that for every piece• west of Greenwich. the time is already artificial. i.e., it is not loyal time, but the time as it apneas= in the astronomers in Greenwich Park. It would be just as easy to have E'er. lisp "summer ',ire: an hour of re• tn.rdation of English "winter time -- when once eo,ov r.tionalized as it if - to have the ti•n' in the west of Ene• land perpetually a quarter of an lion' to twenty minute. in ndvilnce of true time -the state of things which exisirc at preser:t.

'BANK NOTE 1011A110E. 1SARD' MEN'S WEAR STORE 'POP" ° TOPGNTO-CAN. iv h Jnui n • y Some Remarkable English Bills Hat Been Preserved. If the bank notes which have bee issued by the "Old Lady of Three needle Street" had been gifted wit the power of speech, with what 1 numerable tales of romance, traged and adventure they could have e riched the world; For instance, the is preserved in the Bank of Englan library a £5 note with these word written upon it: "If this note gets i to the hands of John Dear, of Lone, hill, near Carlisle; his brother Andrew is a prisoner in Algiers." This notification was copied into a Carlisle newspaper, and John Dear thus became aware of the where- abouts of Ms long -lost brother. Among other curiosities in the Bank library there is a bank note, dated "19th Xber, 1699," for £555. This is the oldest bank note known to 1)e in. existence, In appearance and design it is very similar to the pres- ent-day notes. Another interesting note is one for £1,000 which Lord Cochrane paid as a fine, imposed upon him for his er- roneously-supposed'connection with a fraud for raising the public funds. It is endorsed with these words: "My health having suffered by long and close confinement, and my oppres- sors having resolved to deprive me of property and life, I submit to Rob- bery to protect myself from Murder, in the hope that I shall live to bring the delinquents to justice. -Cochrane. Grated Chamber, King's Bench Pris- on, 3 July, 1815." One of the most unique notes in the bank collection is one for £25 which was presented and honored 111 years after it had been issued. The greatest amount for which a Bank of England note has been issued is £1,000,000. There are only four of these million -pound notes in exist- ence. One is preserved in the library of the bank, another in the posses- sion of the Rothschild family, a third is owned by Messrs. Coutts, the fam- ous bankers, a•od the fourth is in the hands of the descendants of Sam- uel Rogers, the poet. In the production of their notes, the Bank of England authorities' chief aim is to issue a note which is im- possible for anybody to counterfeit. Towards this end, 311 '.he parts of the uote-the paper, the water -mark, the ink, the engraving, the printing -are prepared and done he a special and, as far as possible, secret manner. At the mills where the paper is manu- factured the most stringent pree'au- tions are taken to prevent any of the paper being stolen. Of course, there have been many attempted robberies, but only once, in the ;;ear 1862, were thieves successful in obtaining any of the paper. Very shortly afterwards forged notes were in circulation. The thieves did not enjoy their triumph long, for within a short time they were captured. Meted. "What do you think?

A young English servant girl, who was brought before one of the Paris police courts recently, probably -owes her escape from a sentence of im- prisonment to the fact that there were two spectators in the public gallery of the court who understood the Eng- lish language. The girl was accused by her employer, an Jfnglish-speak- ing Frenchman, of stealing a purse containing 50 francs. She does not speak a word of French, and when she and her employer faced each other in court she spoke a few words to him in English. "What did she say?" the presiding magistrate asked. "She said," replied the man, "that she wag not afraid of going to prison." At this there was a cry of "No, no, no!" from the body of the court, and a man and woman walked up to the bench, and informed the magistrate that the girl's statement had not been proper- ly translated. "Tell exactly what she lits say," the magistrate ordered. "She aid," replied one of the volunteer in- •rponto'4'1 "You know very well that u tiid not find the money on ole." lie employer admitted that he had told this (0 the court, and the •egisirate at onee discharged the '1, 'Vest Africa Now Lercils.
