Moro specially is this the case when one loots the route covered by the Great orthern Transit Company of Colling• ood Tho 500 odd miles of water retch and beautiful natural scenery tween Wiarton, Ont., and Machin, a Sault Ste Marie, Ont., is one of o most delightful and health in- gorating in the broad Dominion. ho whole route, almost, is a perfect inoramaof wooded bluffs and leaping lands of rook as far as the eye oan acts We steamed out of Clinton on ily 29th. At 7.30 p. m. wo pulled it of Stratford for Wiarton, a town Ado famous by the protection of the ritieh flag. A lonely traveller gonere.ily 0t4d.11 c4mpaniy and Eve, vtfe.re soon in convexaatiou with W. 13. Free- born. a past toaster of L.. O. L. 544, Millbank, who introduced the,'tourist to Thos. I%Sagwood, M. P. P. for North Perth. A young man in the smoker eybd the writer very olosely, and wo determined to ascertain the meting of it all, He and W. P Spalding, of Clinton, would pass for twin brothers --not bad looking by any meane. In reply to my query he informed me that his nam wee Shaw and that he re- sided in Walkerton. "Jack Shaw !" said I. "Yee," Dame the reply. The two of ue had 25 year ago been eohool mates and often merited the birch wielded by a etrapping school "mum" for our fietiouff dealings with each other, We ohatted of our boyhood days and former associates. What time works! Changes- marriages, births, deaths and removals. Probably not a half dozen of our old school• mates left in the old town. Mr. Shaw is a lawyer a son of Alex. Shaw, ex -M. P. At Palmerston the small party wore' joined by County bIaster and Mrs. Collins, of Walkerton (natives of our infant home whom wo were gratified to meet), 1'. Telford, a a representativeOraugeman of Hanover, County blaster Couseus of North Perth. County Master Glenn, of South Perth, Lieut.•Col. Scott, C. M., of West Bruce and Mr. Miller, both of Linear- dine, Liont,•Cul. White, C. M. ,of Wellington and Mrs. White (of Arthur). All these notables helped to swell tho happy throng heading for the Soo. AT WIARTON we arrived about midnight and our boat several hours run from us. The i party headed for the main part of the town:to secure if possible a lunch. We soon succeeded, for we met a worthy pilot in the person of D. M. Jermyn, ex -Reeve of the town. He and hie good lady joined the party and at 3 o'clock Sunday morning all could truthfully sing that beautiful' song with the prominent headline "Sailing." It might be stated that \Viarton is the terminus of the Grand Trunk Railway, about 140 miles from Clinton. The writer was one of the unfortunates who had to be content to stand up to sit down or allow himself to hand on a peg for r)te night -or for the few remaining hours. Berths were iu demand with none to be had. The ladies were made comfortable and the gentlemen were reluctantly satisfied. lefot•e dawn broke forth in splendour or the heavens had let the rays of the beautiful sun peep over the smooth waters the Atlantic, with the affable and ever courteous Captain Foote, of CoIlingwood, iu command, we had passed Capo Croker, away up the dark indented shore of the Indian Peninsula, past Cabot's Bead, across the Gap, and by the time the somewhat weary travellers had i ll 0dw,t with cravings for an early breakfast the shores of the Monitoulin appeared, with Lonely, Clnb and Squaw Islands in view. The little Indian village of \Vick•wom•i• lcong, opposite. KILLARNEY, comes plainly into. view and lends hn- mon interest to the surroundings. We arrived At Killarney Sunday noon, the first stopping place on the north shore. The population is largely aboriginal. The Laurentian mountains rico abruptly in the near background, having a narrow strip of water between their baso and the water. Fish and blueberries there are galore. About, 800 tons of fish are shipped from this point every season. Deer and elk are said to be numerous. Wo wore informed that there is not a Protestant in the place, a nicely decor- ated R. C. church being the only place of worship. A priest rows down the bay a distance of 15 miles and attends to the wants of the people twice a month. Rural Dean Cooper, of Tara, one of the Grand Lodge Chaplains, was along and we all visited the church. On our return an Indian addressed the Dean as "Father" and crossed him- self out of respect to the rev. Oraege delegate. At the warning whistle all scrambled on board in good humor, and soon a palatable dinner was served. The steamer passed on through num- erous islands of various sorts and sizes. The current at this point is very strong, and the course of the vessel shifts fre- quently owing to the many islands. The view is simply magnificent. MANITOWANiNG, about 30 miles from Killarney, lies at the head of a deep and picturesque bay, tho beauties of which there is ample opportunity to view. Close by is to be found tho finest trout -fishing in our northern waters. The popula•, tion of the village ie°about 700. Thele are steam grist and lumber mills. We met a former resident of Grey, a farm- er, who has resided here 20 years or more, and he informed me that the crops were magnificent and plenty of gond land. On the Atlantic here we met Mr. S. Gidley, of Blyth, who in com- pany with Mr. H. A. Scarlett, was holidaying. He had been out fishing the day before and had a narrow escape from meeting a watery grave. At LITTLE CURRENT. we stopped off tho boat and received a hearty shake from Ed. Twitohell, formerly of Clinton, who is working at the harueee making and doing well. The editor of the Manitoulin Expositor, Mr. W. A. M. Bellwood, we were also pleased to meet. The latter kindly ol'ered to show THE NEWS RECORD. man around and pilot us for -a good day's fiehing, but time was too precioue. If the offer holds good, and we think it will, next year Little Current may be visited. We also met here Duncan '.i rinlsie, survivor of the dreadfill Asia disaster. Little qurrout is se inport• ant point on the; route, the light befog bowmen it and Gore Buy for the county town. As many of our readers are aware, the latter town was victor- ious. However, Current is a very im- portant point on the route, with four large eaw mills, fine hotels and tele- garph service connecting with main- land. The C. P. lt. is not many miles from the town. Calls are successively made at Mudge Bay and GORE BAY, the latter a lovely spot on the Mani- toulin Island, euurrounded by lofty bills clothed with trees down to the waters edge. On a bright day the effect is °hermitg. Headland after headland juts out from the shore, -cud the bay is dotted as far as the eye can reach with a succession of islands, some rising abruptly from water and ()there flat. Here a good many cords of wood had to be taken on and the passengers had an hour's leisure time. Diligent enquiry was made for cousins, some of them 15 years married, we had not seen for over 20 years. We wore in- formed by a resident that we could not mise at least one of them, Mr. G. W. Miles, the tallest man in town 6ft, 4- in. Time was precious and a dime was slipped into the hand of a young sterwho piloted methrough thedarkness to the homeof my friends. Mise Hattie Cook, my cousin, fluttered the door. I did,not know her, but she is a flue looking young lady cf 20 summers, and appeared the picture of neatness. My mission explained, she was as greatly eurprised as myself. The meeting was mutually happy indeed. Mrs, Miles, her sister, and lir. Miles soon appeared. Such a brief but pleasant' reunion ! Time is no res- pecter of persons and as the clock tick• ed and ticked time 'went on. I must leave ! My cousin piloted mo safely end soon I was on the bosons of the calm waters, speeding toward the Soo, like many othere without a bed to rest my body or a pillow on which to lay my weary head. (To be continued.) THE BEHRING SEA DICISION GIVEN. UNCLE SAM LIABLE TO PAT DAMAGES TO CANADIANS. TILE. FIVE POINTS OF ARTICLE 6 DECIDED AGAINST 0011 COUSINS. THE AMERICAN ARBITRATORS SAY'TIIEY ARE SATISFIED. The anxiously -awaited award in the Behring Sea arbitration was made pub- lic to -day. The award.as announced from Paris was forshadowod in my cable of August 2. It was handed down at 11.07 Tuesday morning. The first five point favor Great Bri-' tain. Aseries of regulations are proposed, which also on the whole favors Great I3ritain. On the q•iestion of fact regarding the seizure of scaling vessels, Great Britain is favored by the decisiou of the arbi- trators. A close season' is established, to. begin May 1 and to continue until July 21. This close season will be observed both in the North Pacific Ocoau and in Behring Sea. A protected zone is established ex- tending for sixty miles around the island. ' Pelagic sealing is allowed outside the zone in the Behring Sea from August 1. The use of firearms in sealing is pro- hibited. The American arbitrators express their satisfaction with the text of the decision . WHAT SIR CHARLES SAYS. I saw Sir Charles Tupper and asked hint his opiuion regarding the,decision. He said the award was about as expect- ed; it was natural that arbitrators should seek something in the nature of a compromise. The facts made the position of Canada on the question of rights impregnable. Outside of this the general desire to preserve the seals from extinction enabled the court to meet the protests of the United States on this point. The United States are now liable to pay damages to the Canadians sealers which they have Seized. WE SHOULD FEEL PLEASED. The opinion is that Great Britain and Canada have every reason to feel pleaeed at the result of the arbitration and the award, and general eatisfaction is expressed that the matter ie finally settled. -Mies Mary C' Cullum' grand mistress of the Ladies' Orange Benovo. lent society wee taken dangerously i11 while returning' from the Soo, has been removed from the Seldon house at Owen Sound to the hospital. Her condition is much improved. -A new postage stamp of the value of eight Dente ie now being put into circulation. This stamp will be avail- able for the payment of either regietra• tion fee and postage combined, or of postage only. Tho 5 cent registration stamp will be withdrawn when the preeent supply is exhausted. WHY BUY LOW GRADES WHEN YOU CAN GET• BLUE RIBBON, RED CAP, ST NDARD, THRE4 .PLY FLAX,' At Rock Bottom Prices.
