A despatch from Toronto says:
The Canadian Booific Passenger

The Tucker boat was found over, -
turned near shore with a, suitcase
and Tucker's coat under it. The

geenral, and soon a number of poi, -

dragging the bodies „are not yet
found. The general opinion is that
the bodies in this deep water will

business is done On They buy frora
the wholesaler and borrow money from
the bank to do so, repaying the bee&
when they have sold the goods. (Of course,
in some cases they get credit from the
wholesaler, but in that ease they really
borrow from hint). The bond dealer does
Om same thing. He buys a raillion
dol-
lar issue of bonds and borrows moneY
front his banker to pay for it, paying off
the banker when the bonds are sold. It
would be unwise, indeed, to criticize bine
for atteMPting to sell his bonds.
.nren, if your bonds are good why do
You have ta send men odt to sell them,"
asked one man once of a bond salesma,n.
"Why don't you just advertise them in
the papers. If they are so good the inves-
tors buy them." A good many peo-
ple do buy bonds- from reading newspaper
advertisements, but in the -present day it
is so difficult for people to tell the good
from the bad in advertisements that they
seldom buy from what is advertised tiniest;
they know the house offering the bonds.
It requires a personal interview with most
.investors tel get their business, just as
no wholesale grocer would trust to a news -
p8502 advertisement to get the country
grocer's orders. It is the same idea ex-
aetly. And the salesman who gets the
raost business gete the 0greatesg salary,
and so he has to "hustle." It isn't be-
cause they can't sell bonds in Toronto
at they see you out in the country,
but because they want your business-andt,
your neighbor's.. The more business they
get the quicker the turnover and conse-
quently often they can afford' to sell'
bonds at a less profit than a house whose
busines,s is smaller and whose turnover
is slower. • That is why it pays to send
out salesmen.
ImpraTAL ARMY OFFICER.
Mali Was Caught Ske\tching at
Point, Levis Forts.
A despatch from Quebec says:
While proceeding from No., 1 fort,
Levis, to No. 2 a sub -conductor of
the 9rdnance Corps found a gen-
tleman ketching the forts. He im-
mediately called the attention of
the guard and placed him under ar-
rest for neglecting his duty. Then
he tdok hold of the man who was
doing the sketching. The latter
stated he was an officer in the im-
perial army and had been employed
as a military surveyor by the Ot-
tawa Government. He proceeded
to Quebec with the sub -conductor,
and was handed over to Major
'RObertS0r1 at the. brigade ofli.ce.
The case is a pecuii.ar one and more
may be heard of it.

the most interesting attractions of re -
Cent Years have resulted from those vis-

list the syznpathy af such men as Earl
Grey, who provides the Doctor with let-
ters of introduction when. he goes abroad,
and in this way he gets eloee to the peo•
le who can give him. the things he wents.
01 the Doctor could some time on's, give
an exhibition of old world "Red Tape,"
he would be happy.
THE DOCTOR, AND ART.
A lot of tixne is spent, too. in getting in
touch, with people who have valuable
paintings which they. are willing to loan
for the art exhibit, Few of these are to
be had on this continent, but Europe has
them by the car load, if one only knows
how to go about getting them. On the
subject of paintings there is a continu-
ous feud on between the Doetor and the
Artists AsSociation. The artists think the
pictures that are put in the Exhibition
gallery ought to be high class artisti-
cally. The Doctor doesn't, object to high
arts but if he can't get with it some sub-
ject that has a strong Popular appeal he
doesn't give a hang for high art. For
example, it, has been found from long
experience that battle scenes and pretty
women are the subjects that make the
people come and look. l3ut your connois-
eeur might find more high art in some
quiet landscape with a few sheep in the
foreground. The Doctor lets the artists
have their own way to some extent -he
lets them stick up their landscapes and
sheep over in the corner -but he takes
pains to see that his battle scenes and
pretty women stand right out on the
middle of the wale
BOARD ]IAS FINAL SAY.
While Dr. Orr is the active manager,
and is expected to supply the motive pow-
er in initiatingand sane, judgment in
making recommendations, he. has the ad-
vice, and is under, the direction, of a
Board of Directors, which includes many'
leading citizens. During fair time the
Board meets daily, sometimes several
Mines on one day, and thronghout the
year it keeps in close touch with the plans
underway. All thele men give their time
without remuneration, having in mind
only the welfare of the'city and whatever
-personal honor and glory that may come
ineidentally. The present President, Mr.
J. G. Kent, has been preceded by such
men as Mr. George It, Gooderhata, M.P.P.,
Mr, Iv. K. MeNaught, 101.P.P., and
W. K. George. The Board of Directors is
elected by the Exhibition Association,
which meets once a year, .and is composed
of representatives of various organisa-
tions, but dominated largely by the To-
ronto OitY Council, Board of Trade and
Manufacturers' Association. While there
is room for criticism of the inethod of
representation in the -assoc'
iation there
remaining in it a suspicion of the system
of pocket boroughs, it lutist be admitted
that the results attained have not been
