The rob- beries were conutittecl between 12 and 1 o'clock on Saturday, when the banking institutions were crowd- ed with representatives of firms, who were arranging for the pay- ment of their --employes. The bank officials were so engrossed with the work that they did not notice anything wrong, and paid the amount of the cheques in the usual way. The man is believed to have visited the Imperial Bank first about 11 o'clock, aud then re- turned with the raised cheque. a. little after the noon hour. The man pre- sented a cheque for $10 to the ledger - keeper, and had it. duly certified. When this was accomplished, it is believed he went out to some place where he would not 'be seen, *and with the use of two kinds of chemi- cals rubbed out the amount ten dol- lars, and inserted two thousaud, four hundred and nfty-five dollars. This done, he returned to tae bank and handed it to the paying teller, who gave him the aanount of the cheq,ue. The amount was made up of 24 3100 ..bills, one $50 and one 35 bill. From. the Imperial Bank the man is believed to have. gone to the Bank ,of Commerce, and to hive written out it cheque for $20 in full view of the ledgerkeeper of the savings de- partment, where he had his account.

They clearly showed. that througliout the county of perth it great interest is being taken in the Sunday sclecen work. The aueuel report of the' seeretary.trea.surer, Mr. Isaac Horde of Mitchell, showed that the Perth Association had beld conventions for thirty-three years, an unique record. No department of work was malting greater progress in the new century than were the Sunday Schools. Thio was easily seen "when we consider that every weele 1000,000 teanhers and over 20,000,000 scholars are studying the word of Ood, and in our own country, 15,000 study the International Lesson every week.

Cen- tiniung, the report, said that the Sun- day School teaching_ of to -day is a great deal better than in years gsne- by but their is still room for itnprove- ment as it great many teachers do not think of the great responsibility of their task. Financially the associa- tiou was not in debt, said the report.
