The ;planes flew in groupts of three, v-forination vtsith 'General hallo IBal'bo's machine as the ;spearthead. 'Phe report was ,quickly -spread that it was,.the Italian fleet but nobody was sure. All doubt was dissi- :pated ten minutes later, however, .when six more planes "passed by, southbound, toying in identical 'ash - ..ion. It was not until three o'clook,. one-ha'lf hour after .the first was sighted, that three more appeared, further out and higher top. They were plainly risible, 'but their motors were •not heard, The remaining three planes, it 'has since turned out, had become separated and followed the original course along Lakes Ontario and Erie, joining the main fleet at'De- troit. The 24 giant flying boats, .which left 'Montreal about '1=1 a.m. July 8, :made fine progress along the .St, Lawrence river and the north shore of 'Lake ,Ontario as 'far as Belleville, At that 'point they ran into bad visi- bility ,and the main body swung north, flying aver wPeterbor•o and west over Lake 'Simcoe. They were sighted at Coldwater and Owen Sound, reach- ing the shore of Lake Huron at Southampton, 'then swinging south to Port Huron and Detroit, thence to :Chicago. Engine Runs Away. --Sawing opera- tions Which were commenced in the Kalb'fleisch mills at Zurich were de- layed when in some unknown man- ner the 'large and slow motion engine that drives the sawing mill as well as .the planing mill and flax mill, started to speed up, apparently the govern- ors not shuttigg off. The result was that considerable damage was done before .it was .brought under control. The saw mill was immediately shut off, but the train shaft through the planing mill suffered injuries, as two large pulleys did not stand the ex- cessive speed and broke, and t'he 'bi'g shaft was badly bent and twisted.

Ruthlessly 'slaughter- ed by some person unknown, in whom the blood -lust was not: satisfied until his victims had fallen to 1 is tifle the Bradley's, quiet spoken, orderly and highly respected in the small village of Demers Centre were ,coldly murd- ered, one after 'die other. [Residents of that neighborhood had cast off their' fears today and s'po'ke of possible causes of •the tragedy. They spoke of strange island feud's of years standing. None, however, could or would declare !definitely against whom they would point the finger of lsus'pic- ion. lAt !'east three eye ,witnesses saw the killing of Johanna Bradley, the 315 - year -old daughter of the housse. None saw the murder of Joseph Bradley, 69, who was ,found dead in the stable, of Mrs. •00aggie Bradley, his wife, of John ,Bradley, his 05 -year-old brother, or of Tose !Bradley, the mentally de- fective son. 'Mrs—Allard Narcisse V'aillan'court and Lawrence Manville of Demers - Corners, saw the ru'thless shooting down of. Johanna. ;All heard shots around 7,30 o'clock in the /northing. They saw Johanna running through the yard of .the Bradley ;farm,pursued by a man carrying a :rifle. Mrs. All- ard declared he seemed to have a blanket over his head. (The pursuer stopped and fired at the 'woman. At 'the same time they heard her 'shriek: 'Pin 'being 'murder- ed," She •staggered into the house still chased :by the retiiorseless'"frend. He was not seen again. The neighbors were terrified. None dared 'approach 'the house. •I't was the local priest, !Feather (Harrington; of Chapeau, who entered when told .of the 'occurrence later, and ,his eyes lit on evidences of one df 'the most dread- ful malssacres in the .history of the dVlemorial to Late 'Bayfield Rector. —St Step'hen's Anglican Church :at IThannesville was well filled at the 11 o'clock service last ,Sunday when the dedication of the Hinde and 'Harmer memorials was conducted by Rev.

More than one thand cam he traced through the volumes; but many of the letters were c'opied by Pepys himself, some in don hen d some in sbtorthand, and same in a mixture of the two. As (soon as the letters 'reached Greenwich, Mr, Edwin Chappell inn- dertook .the transcription of the sshot-Th'aud items, so that the entire volume might be a'vailable for study. "Shorthand Letters" is the;,result of this la'bour,'an'd the title is a straight- forward description of the contents., With' one in'sign'ifican't exception, the letters :trarsoribed by 'Mr: Clha'p'pelll are 'simply and solely shorthand. !Shorthand, we know, was :employ ed in Queen Elizabeth's day; and within 20 years of ler dea'th' the cuni- our .cou'Id ,purcth'ase 'Thomas Shelton's tittle 'primer on ;the ,su'b'ject. 'In 1641. Shelton launched aiu'improved system, wihf''ch he called "tadhygraplhy." This method .was , !mastered by • Samuel Pepys twthen he ,was up at 'Oambnidge some •10 'years later. It• l's' not neces- sary to describe the system, which is 'tdequated'y treated .b3 Mr, IClhappell in his in,troduction.nBitt 'bw!o aspects need stressing here. In the first tp'lace, the system ,was a "pioneer" system; it 'pointed the road rather than actually esacle it, leaving popularization to the nineteenth cen'tury,,p'hon'etics, and Sir •• Isaae Pitman! 'In the second place, the system, in the middle sev'en'teenth ,century, 'was the exact antithesis of What is meant by "ancillary." He 'wlho mastered it, as Pepys ,mastered it, did not perhaps Master the .whole world, but he dominated the secret- arial possibilities of ;any 'sphere into which he entered. Fate, in the shape cd family influence, intervened; and Samuel Pepys went to seta with his cousin Montagu on. a political errand, Iwhielh 'history n'ow describes as" the ndustries as ,well, among Thein being a brewery and a tannery, the tannery being owned by 'Messrs. J. !Gutluie & Sons, There is a certain 'connection be - ween the .woollen and the ,;tanning industries, as some 'firms of spinners 'buy the skins` with the fleeeiee on hent. Im the 'last YFw years a new ndustry !tag' been added, that of the ,production of artificial silk at the Cannongate Mills. Among the firms engaged in tlie woollen industry pro - per are Messrs. J. Boyd & Son, of the Nsw Bougate Mills, the weaving mill being at New 'B;onga•te, just outside the ,bourn, while the spinning rill is within the town. But, Ile- miles further north on the maim. road from ,Edinburgh which passes through Lauder, is. an interest- ing nn011 at Eareston,, :with spinning and. \weaving' sheds in !proxi'm'ity. It is kiso!wn as the Rhywmer's Mill, from iEarls:ton being the old Eicil'doun of Thomas the !Rhymer, and is owned by Messrs. 'Simpson & Fairbairn. Unemployment hal hit Jed+burgh recently, of course, as it has other place's, .but the artificial 'silk in'dustry, the newest in the' town, has done well. The tweed indiustry has been' the main one in the ;torten for more than a cen- tury, and work here has been fair;; steady. The building trade did not do well last year, during which not ,. single dwelling -house was erected. !The rotate from the north into Jed - burgh is through the beautiful scen- ery of the Roxb,urghshire hill's and mountain's. From 'Earlston, going south, the road runs parallel with the River Leader for about three 'miles until it joins the 'Tweed. Soon the road meets the 'River Jed and 'follows that stream- south' to 1J'dd'burgh. - A•s we approach the town we see the full .mountain , country, with its many peaks and 'bens farming ',a' glorious view on a clear day. The High 'Street runs completely through the town, south to the Market Place, but rising towards it, and then continuing to rise, and very steeply, to the Old 'Castle of Jedll tirgh=th'e "Old Castle" is the name by which the people know it, but there is no castle now; the ,present buildingels an ad prison, and a large one at \that, merely built on the foundations of the famous Jedburgh Castle, Jediburgh Abbey is, of Course, the most interesting of 'all the interesting buildings of the town, and the history of the town is bound up with it. 'The Abtbey.Bridge is in a very ,pic- turesque position, and is old, though doubtless it has been strengthened and restored from time to time., (The origin , of the .present Abbey 'buildings' is clearly traced, but that of the confraternity, as distinct front the present surviving remains, is a dif- ferent and an dbscure matter. There is no question that there were ancient' settlements of monks in the ninth century at place's named as Old Jed burgh end New Jedburgh, King Dav- id 'I. founded a 'monastery at Jedworth in '0147, near his royal residence, and brought montes from 'Beauvais, in the North of France. "J'ed'hurgh" is a corruption, or more properly speaking, an evolution, frim the form ""Jedworth," of, which "Ted wart" and "Jedclart" are real corrup- tions. The second syllable is the Sax- on "weorth," meaning a hamlet. 'Tate absolutely unique sport of Jed - burgh is annual .on'l'y, and is held on Candlemas, which falls on the 'fixed date February 2nd, every year. .But its present practise does not 'depend on anything ecclesiasticah,iTwo sides, the '"IJppies" and the '"Doonies," play football in the streets, and although efforts have .from time to_time been wade to encl the practise, the game goes 0n. Recently a great "addition has been made -to, an already excellent supply of domestic water, by utilising 87,000, gallons which 'had been, going to waste daily for many years • at 'the three sources of the town'''s supply.' 'The quantity now available' is 2517,000 gallons daily, The 'population is about 21500, Ottawa Valley. JEDBURGH Most of the songs of the Border country in 'Scdtland deal with 'hove and war; they were 'fine fighters in 'the old days in the (Borderland: But there is one old song which deals with the great industry of the.
