There is a district M Teterboro
which is called. ISiounyke. That is its
postai addrese, and it is aptly chOS.,
OA, for the Ancient city hes. . found
hidden lu the earth op, which It
stands a treasure. inestimable. ' 1t is
not gold or dialtionde, merely a com-
mon blue clay; but by the aittlienly
of modern scleace it is transmuted
into the precious inetal of our cur-
reacy, and the wealth.of the gold-
fields has come to Veterboro without
the hardships.
This ancient city has witnessed the
making of England, end • taken • an.
active part throughout the genttiries.
in events which stirred the nation's
life. But it was -virtually 'saved Prete
obscurity in modern times by a fool- •
isit Marquis of Exeter, • who, whets it
was proposed to run. A great line of
railway through Stamford, set his
face against such a desecration of hie
broad acres. Teterboro had no sueh-
prejudiceS, and it gained what Stain,
ford lost, and became a busy .centre
of trade. Two thotistin.d railwaymen
live in Peterboro- at this day in a
colony of their own, and, with the
aptness for 'nomenclature which seems
native to the district, it has been
called New If.'»glaini.
But even- butter -fortune was in
store for the city. In. •the regions
round about -Oxford clay approaches
the surface, and lies in great beds
covering a wide area.. it is grey. and-.
blue in shade, and has a certtiinbili-
ness, as of shale. Over it a, .layer of
plastic- clay was found, . whicti 'was •
made into bricks, an.d lumps of this
substance appear in the Oxforti..elaY,!
giving the semblance' of _knots. in
wood. So at this day a hole..whence
the clay is out is a "knot -hole."- . .

city, is in the centre of the clay
fields, and "Fletton" is the trathe.
name of the Peterboro. brick.. The.
clay deposits are literally ineilmust-
ible.' Their superficial area is .
many square' miles., and the depth'
varies, but is always great. Depths.
of 115 feet of clay have been proved,

army, says The London Express,
forms an elaborate statistical guide
to the numerical strength, the na.-
tionality, the religious beliefs, the
progress, and condition of recruiting
of the liritisli army. The report is
only for the first nine months of
1903, because the decision of the
Secretary for War that it should be
rendered annually in future as from
Oct. 1'instead (st Jan. 3.,.

's cor the zegul r army the number
ef recruits (nth ted in thet• period un -
dee 'review was 29,324, and for the
militia 25;774, these ngures showing
' a large dimiaution on the numbers in
the corresponding period of previous
yeare.
Tim 'falling off, however, says the
Inspector -General of Recruiting, is
easily explained. .ast the commence-
ment of the year, in consequence of
stile special recruiting for the 'mount-
ed corps during the war, practically
all thew corps ViCrO very largely in
excess of the establishment. For this
reason recruiting has been either
partially or wholly -suspended in the
caso. of these corps during the whole
period covered by the report. • ._.
The order that no recruit • was in
future to be accepted .who could not .
produce a satisfactory reference as to -
his character and antecedents, also
resulted in a diminution of nur•nbers,
and in 11,14.srch last year the stand-
ards 'of height for recruits in certain
corps were materially raised.
Notwithstandingthese restrictiens,
