I sometimes think the clergy should ex- pose business crookedness and dis- honesty in their sermons, more than they do, In speaking of crooked- ness and dishonesty I might include lying, as these are always found to- gether. A bold, barefaced crime was pulled off at the corner of Yonge and McGill streets a few days ago, short- ly after the noon hour. A collector for a chain of stores, of which there are twenty here, had made his col- lections and was leaving for the back the deposit the money, when a num- ber trf criminals came along in an auto and ordered him to throw alp his hands, and one of them snatched the satchel off the seat add started. The messenger who is a returned man and an active person ran after their rig and climbed up behind and stuck there until reaching Mutual St., when their rig struck a rut and threw hint off. There were many persons on Yonge street at the time and as there were several shots fired,` how they all escaped being hurt was little short of a miracle. Unfortunately 'the robbers escaped. There have been a great number of 'deaths from pneumonia, the victims being mostly 8lderly people, but there were quite a number who had not reached middle age. Since read- ing 'of the earthquake a large number declare they felt the shock. One lady declared to me that it nearly shook her off her feet. I jokingly told her that great would have been the fall thereof. This was our land- lady and she is a plump woman. J.J.I. Brussels. Mr. J. E.
