British Orators, Political observers say that the Long-winded orator will get scant at- tention in this new house of Com- ment, and that the fifteen -minutes' speech -maker will be the than who will get the closest hearing. If this is so it is at least rather curious that this change should come at a time when the House has lost the cour- pactest speaker in its annals. No one could say so much in so short a time and so clearly as Mr. Asquith; Itis speeches were models of luminous compression. 1t" has been remarked Of Mr. Lloyd George that as he hes ascended the slippery pole he rt t; be- come less and less compete..

A car belonging to W. Sillick of Cul. ross, was found at the G. T. R. yards here last week. It had been stolen in Kincarbine and the thieves had abandon- ed it here and taken the train evidently, being afraid of getting caught.

Mr, Griffin, the jailer who has the grounds rented for pasturage, was not altogether pleased at this use of the premises, especially as children are some- times sent for the cows, and a complaint was made to the police. The result was that two of the men were arrested and brought to court on 'Wednesday morning, They gave their names as Edward De- laney and Frank Delaney, the latter being the son of the former. Their home they said, is in Collingwood and they came off one of the boats It was not for lads of funds that they were sleeping round in the way they were, for Mr. Delaney, sr., had $238.11 in his pocket, and when Magistrate Reid decided he should con- tribute something for the good of the country, be promptly told the chief to take it out of his wad, The charge watt one of trespass and the fine was $2 and costs, totalling somewhat over $10.
