the town would derive from this fair.
Mayor -Yes, Brnseeis, Listowel and
other places do so and they reap the ben-
efit by keeping up market prices whioh
attraots people to the plane. I know of
parties from this aide of MaKilfop going to
Brussels during these fair days. Every-

the workingman though they may not see

made ; that the best and only the beat

left for Quebec and returned with the re-
mains on Sept. 26. They were taken
from Dublin station to the home of the
deceased and on the afternoon of the

The wife of General Bootie, command.
er-in.ohief of the Salvation Army, died
at London the 11th inat, The deceased
lady was the General's help -meet in a
deeper sense than the word is generally
used. She was intensely attaohod to the
Salvation Army and its work. In fact
her labors have been so abundant that
her health has several times given way
under the severe strain, She was a
graceful, earnest and pathetic speaker, a
writer of no mean literary ability, and
had the sympathetic gift in a high de.
grew, She won friends for the Army in
the higher ranks who would not have
been secured by the equallyenthueiastio
but illiterate advocates. Many of the
features of Salvation Army work were of
her origin, notably the Prison Brigade,
the work amongst fallen women, girls'
refuges and cognate missions. Mrs.
Booth travelled many thousands of miles,
and has spoken in all the principal cities
of Great Britain and some of the Euro.
peen capitals. So wideepread have the
operations of the Army become that in
all quarters of the globe thousands will
regard the death of the general's wife ae
a personal loss. Her articles in The War
Cry were highly prized.
