morning between 9 and 10 o'clock.
Torrents of rain fell. As far as has
been ascertained no serious damage
was done.

Death of Miss McNaughton.—Af-
ter . many years of patient suffering
Mary C. McNaughton, eldest daugh-
ter of the late Ronald McNaughton,
passed away at the home of her sis-
ter, Mrs. I. Parker, Princess Street,
on Saturday evening. Miss Mc-
Naughton was born on the farm now
owned by Addison Taylor, on Conces-
sion 9, Grey Township. She has lived
in this vicinity all her life. W'1{'lle
still a young woman she was stricken
with rheumatism from which she nev-
er recovered and for many years has
been a shut-in • but always interested
in the affairs of both church and state.
Her wide circle of friends will remem-
ber her for her cheerfulness, patient
endurance and Christian fortitude. It
can be truly said of Miss McNaughton
that she belongs to the company of
whom it was said; "These are they
who have come out of great tribula-
tion and have washed their robes
and made them white in the blood
of the Lamb." She leaves to cherish
the memory of a beloved sister, two
brothers and two sisters, Don. T.
McNaughton, Oakland, Calif.; Dr.
H. J, McNougton, Penn Yan, N. Y.;
Mrs. Parker Foster, Kincardine, and
Mrs. Ira Parker, Brussels. The fun-
eral was held from the home of Mrs.
Parker on Tuesday afternoon, June
30th.
WATERS UNDER THE EARTH
REVEAL NEW MIRACLES
In June, 1930, Dr. William Beebe,
the American naturalist, established
a record whichattracted not as much
recognition as the record of the cur-
rent flagpole sitter. But it had great
scientific ir/Yerest and value, and
promises to be exceeded on the next
attempt. The record was a descent
of 1,426 feet in the open waters of
the Atlantic off Bermuda. Dr. Beebe
and Mr. Otis Barton who accompan-
ied him, went down in a spherical
diving chamber of steel, with windows
made of three inches of fused quartz
to resist the terrific pressure of the
water. The purpose was to observe
the life of the ocean inhabitants, and
perhaps discover some things that had
not hitherto been known of them. His
report has now been issued and will
be read with interest by all natural-
ists. In it observed fact takes the
place of conjecture or confirms it and
thus it writes another chapter in the
fascinating and modern science to
which the somewhat awkward name
of ocenography has been given.
It is only recently that we have
learned anything if importance about
life in the great depths of the oceans
of the world. Early naturalists as-
sumed that these were as void as the
uppear air. They could not conceive
that creatures could live in utter
darkness where the temperature was
but slightly above freezing and where
the pressure was terrific. It was
partly by aicident that their mistaken
assumption was discovered. As re-
lated in The New Statesman and Na-
tion, a broken telegraph cable was
raised from a depth of 1,200 fathoms
in the Mediterranean in 1860 and
found to be coated for great distances
with encrusting forms of life. This
was rather upsetting to established
notions and was followed in 1868 and
1869 by the voyages of the Lightning
and Porcupitre which carried out im-
portant and even epoch -marking
dredging operations in several seas.
The result proved that there was a-
bundant life down to 2,436 fathoms.
Not only scientific men but the
people generally in all part of the
world were interested and excited as
a result of these discoveries, and
we have no doubt a couple of relig-
ions sprang up on the strength of
them. Some enthusiasts thought
that the supreme riddle of existence
was about to be disclosed. Patelet
medicines were put on the market.
Then the British Government did one
of the things "for which it has gained
more lasting honor than for a hun-
dred forgotten treaties or petty col-
onial wars." It equipped and sent
forth on a voyage that was to last
three and a half years, H.M.S. Chal-
lenger, which carried a large staff
of scientific experts. The Challen-
ger circumnavigated the globe, dredg-
ing and fishing in almost every sea
from the poles to the equator, collect-
ing a mass of information which, pub-
lished finally in fifty magnificent vol-
umes, formed for all time the basis
of oceanography. Briefly the investi-
gations of the Challenger showed that
life albounded at all depths which
could be plumbed, Since then there
have been other expeditions which
have contributed to our knowledge of
abyssal fauna, though none of them
has been observed before by the meth-
od employed by Dr. Beebe.
Perhaps the most remarkable thing
about all these observations is that
they have' brought to light no new
form of lite. No remnants of a by-
gone race have been dredged to the
surface. Everything that has been
discovered has been simply a varia-
tion or an adaptation bf what nhtur-
alists were familiar with. Nothing
corresponding to a whsle was found
nor either a gigantic nor a miniature
alligator. No sea serpent has been
reported. Things have been found in
extraordinary shapes, and probably
nowhere else has such evidence been
made available as to the ability of an-
imals to adapt themselves to new en-
vironment as in the ocean slime. It
has been noted that the inhabitants
of these freezing depths tend to ex-
tremes. They are either abnormally
large like the sea spiders and the ma-
jority of the c'rustaeean shell fish or
they are very small. In some the
mouth is larger than any ether part

Drowning Accident. ---On Monday
afternoon while a number of boys were
swimming opposite James Anderson's
farm, above the dam, Teddy Jordan,
sibs has been making his home with
Archie and Mrs. McDonald, slipped
through the rubber tube he had around
him and disappeared from sight. The
alarm was given and Bob Loffree,
Bob Campbell, Leonard Walker and
Harry' Workmen '''ere soon in trying
to get the body out. Drs. McRae and
Jamieson were there for a long time
trying to get a spark of life back.
The unfortunate part was that Ian
McDonald was going to take him baek
to Toronto on Tuesday. The river at
ih` point where the boys were swim -
Ming was from 8 to 10 feet deep, the,
spring floods having gorged out this
side of the river. Coroner 'Dr: Me-
Leod, of Wroxeter, viewed the body
and decided no inquest was necessary.
Funeral arrangements'have not been
completed yet.

opened mouths.
These fish were once supposed to'
be peculiarly .suseeptible to a peculiar
parasite which was invariably fasten-
ed to their' bodies. - It has now been
learned that this supposed parasite is
the male fish. Scientists were for a
long time puzzled by the fact that
practically all deep sea fauna were
provided with eyes, sometimes of un-
usual size and occasionally stuck out
like ,binoculars so that they seemed
to be in imminent danger of being
knocked off, Of what use were eyes
when there was no light? Now one
of the most widespread and remark-
able properties of these creatures is
their phosphorescence: They c a n
and do produce their own light.
Some of them halve the strange fac-
ulty of producing lights of three col-
ors, •blue, red and white, and can turn
it off or on at will. 'It's a gift. The
search for food is the chief occupa-
tion of all deep-sea inhabitants, and
invariably their food is provided by
other creatures, orf the same or dif-
ferent species, since there is no plant
life, because of the absence of light.
This is one of the reasons why so
many of them have abnormally de-
veloped stomachs. One meal may
have to last for a week.
SUCCESSFUL SWINDLER STILL
EVADES POLICE
After reading the 'story of Jakey
Factor, written by Morris Markey
in the New Yorker, we feel impelled
to salute him as one of the most suc-
cessful rascals of his time. We do
this with the greater satisfaction
since Canada can claim some share
of his glory, for he operated in this
country through the medium of a
company called Pure Gasoline Com-
pany, Limited, of whose stock he sold
perhaps half a million dollars' worth
before the police put him to flight.
Ten years ago he had hardly a dime.
To -day he is supposed to have $5,000,-
000, and he is still a young and
healthy man, though hardly, we
should think, destined to make old
bones. His career may be cut short
by American gangsters or it may be
interrupted by the processes of Eng-
lish law. At the moment there seems
to be a doubt whether he will be sur-
rendered by American author'ities to
Scotland Yard officers who are now
in the United States trying to have
him extradited, since there is some
question as to whether 'by right of
his birth he is an American or, by
virtue of some legal steps which he
took a few years ago, a British sub-
ject.
What inspired Jakey to fill his last
customer's ear with soap while he
meditatively lathered him, and then
forsake the business we do not know.
But his original instinct was sound,
for he came to Canada and with the
assistance of a high-pressure gang of
salesmen from Chicago got rid of the
stock mentioned. With his profits he
departed for England, where he knew
that the art of company promotion
ha,s been reduced to a science un-
known elsewhere, probably because

profits. The other gangsters have no
such claim upon him. They merely
know him as a man' of great wealth,
much of it in currency, whose death
would not be greatly deplored by the
public, and who might, with more or
less impunity, be kidnapped and held
for ransom. But at thirty-three, hay-
ing spent` some five million dollars
an the good things and excitements
of life, and with another five million
laid by for a rainy day, Jacob Factor
stands forth as one of the most suc-
cessful men of his time, his name un-
stained by a criminal conviction, his
digestion excellent and his zest of liv-
ing unimpaired.
THE WAYS OF THE HERD
Most circus elephants are thieves.
They will carry almost anything to
their cars --a pipe dropped accidental-
ly by a workman, tiny articles filched
through the open windows of the
sleeping cars, paper and money pur-
loied from spectators' pockets while
apparently looking for peanuts. More
than that, when an elephant gets
loose on the prowl—which is often—
he will do everything to cover his ac-
tivities that any good thief would do.
He will carry his chain to still the
noise. He will walk on grass and
:shavings, or where elephants have
walked before, to conceal his tracks.
And if he is a highly developed thief
he will steal sacks of peanuts from a
counter in such a way that the sym-
metry of the pile will remain undis-
turbed.
When he is punished, he knows
why. A spanking continues until the
victim .bawls. If he is' kuilty, he will
squeal and protest for a time. then
blast an announcement that he has
had enough. But if he is not guilty,
he may submit angrily, or talk in un-
ending protest in a series of chiri up-
ing's and different intonations.
Elephants are lazy: no means ever
has been devised to keep them from
cutting corners, shortening their
waltz steps and otherwise soldiering
on their act, the minute a trainer's
attention is diverted. In this, they
have the full sanction of the herd
leader; she will beat them for unnec-
essary fighting, or for not keeping in
a trunk -to -tail formation on the way
to and from the circus grounds, but
when it comes to cheating in perform-
ance, that's all right wit hher. She
does a bit of it herself.
Nor are such things accidental; an
elephant's life is thoroughly one -of
cause and effect, knowledge and re-
sult. Any unusual event in the men-
ageries is instantly reflected in the
elephant line; a dog fight or a buck -
'ng horse may cause a, runaway, not
from the happening itself, but from
the fact that it reflects a cause of ex-
citement. ,A mouse is not fearful ai
an animal, but is evaded fro,n in-
stinctive dread that it might invade
the beast's nostrils for a hiding

LIVE STOCK MARKETS
Union Stock Yards, Toronto, June 80th. --
Supply of killers in the cattle offering at the
Union Stock Yards yesterday was about even
with'" that of the previous Monday, increase
of some 850 head in the total offering being
made up chiefly of store cattle 67e head ar-
riving from western points. Trade in handy -
weight butcher steers and heifers continued
active with prices showing a gain of 15 cents
per coot.' in spots. Cows also were active but
while bulls were a draggy trade' at barely
steady prices. Baby beeves were firm at 7
to 7 3-4 cents for choice, with the odd top
at Sc per pound.
Good to choice butcher steers made 5.60
to 6 cents, with a top load of heifers at 6.10
cents, and plain downward to 5 cents per
pound, while weighty steers were slow and
lust steady at a range of 5 to 6 1-4 cents, a
bare half load making the top price. Good
butcher cows brought 3 3-4 to 4 cents, with
Plain kind downward to 2 1-2 cents per pound.
Only the odd top butdher bull made 3 3-4
cents per pound, average good kind selling
at 3 cents, while heavies and bolognas sold
from 2 14 to 2 3-4 cents.
Less than 100 of the 770 head of western
stockers and feeders found outlet. A load
averaging 710 pounds brought 4.35 cents and
another load averaging 550 pounds 3.90 cents
per pound, while small lots of light stockers
moved at from 3 1-2 to 3.8.5 cents. Milker
and springer trade was dull, with prices eas-
er, good springers selling at $65 each.
Volume of calf receipts was less than one-
third that of the previous Monday, and med-
ium to choice vealers sold 50 cents per cwt.
higher' than last week's close. Choice salves
brought 6 3-4 to 7 cents per pound, with a
few primes making 7 1-2 cents in the early
sales. Medium quality sealers made 5 to 6
cents, and common calves 2 1-2 to 4 cents.
Sheep and lamb supply was light at 860
head, and lamb prices were steady at 9 cents
per pound for choice and 6 cents for culls.
Good light butcher sheep sold up to 3 cents
per pounr, or half a cent better than last
week's close, but I to 2 1-2 cents took the
bulk of the sheep offered, and both ?amis.;
and sheep of plain quality were a slow sale.
Hogs in a moderate offering sold steady with
last week's close, at 8 cents fob and 8 3-4
cents w.o,o, for aeons, with most truckedb-in
bacons at 8 1-2 cents per' pound.
Iteceipts yesterday were 3.515 cattle, 437

'Montreal, ,lune 30th. --Cattle receipts, 884:
that was supposed to manufacture
glass coffins, or as we should perhaps
say, in more agreeable phraseology,
caskets. He and his advisers then
concluded that the time was about ripe
to make a final killing and depart be-
fore the crash of the pyramided com-
panies. They decided that their best
medium would be a platinum mine.
So they bought some abandoned work-
ings in South Africa, hired a thou-
sand grinning and muddy natives,
equipped with picks and shovels, to
pose for their pictures and then dis-
charged their literature upon the in-
vesting public. ' Or rather they were
on the point of discharging it and had
bought postage for the mailing list,
which numbered some 300,000, when
a London newspaper gave tongue. It
said the platinum mines were a fake.
Factor tried to get back from the
post office the money he had invested
in stamps, and failing' in this depart -
d hurriedly.
But before doing so he is credited
with another coup. ' Somehow or
other he got himself introduced to
the Prince, of Wales and contrived
to sell him some oil stock, probably
on the ground that it would be good
for British trade or draw the domin-
ions closer together or something. He
reached the United States just in
time to join the Florida land boom.
He formed a company, bought some
real estate titles and began the sale.
The trouble with the land he owned
was that it was three feet under
water and thus unsuitable for build-
ing purposes apart from the sinking
of groins and pontoons. Neverthe-
less he and his ,associates are said
to have been'paid $71000;000, and
somehow or other they kept out of
the clutches of the law, despite the
fact that the police of three countries
were trying to word charges that
would enable them to hold Factor in
jail while they could gather damn-
ing evidence against him. He seems
to have had a knack approaching gen-
his in Ieaving no such evidence behind
him. He always had others to hold
the bag.
But with the police converging
upon Trim from three directions, and
Legs .Diamond and some Middle West
glangsters also looking yearningly for
him, Factor walked into Chicago
police headquarters and asked for a
bodyguard. The Chicago police, for-
getting the fact that they had a dust -
tooth and having that tooth pulled. It
will squeal and rub a foot constantly
on a stake when there's a bit of glass
•imbedded in a callus; and if a nail
enters, it will stop right there, hold-
ing up the foot and bawling for as-
sistance.
' We cling to the .potion that Nero's
greatest achievement was that of
fiddling before the fiddle was invented.

eat less and wear less, but you still
can make a vulgar show of your
wealth by paying spot cash for a car.

RHUBARB RECIPES
Rhubarb deserves a more general
use in the spring menus than it is
usually accorded. Here are a num-
ber of ways of serving it in appetizing
desserts.
Stewed Rhubarb.
Make a medium syrup of sugar and
water, cut the rhubarb in one -inch
length. Drop the rhubarb into the
boiling syrup, cover saucepan tight-
ly, and set on back of stove or over
a very moderate heat, until the pieces
of rhubarb are soft enough to be
readily pierced with a skewer. Tale
amount of sugar used will depend
upon individual taste. If the rhubarb
is pale in color, add a few drops of
red food coloring to the syrup.
As a change from the usual stew-
ed rhubarb, try pouring the hot, cook-
ed rhubarb over sliced bananas—and
serving cold—with an ice-cold custard
sauce.
Rhubarb Dessert.
Rinse and wipe clean three large
stalks of rhubarb; cut in inch lengths.
In the top of a double boiler place
a layer of the rhubarb, sprinkle with
sugar; repeat the process„ using one-
half cup of sugar to the above -men -
