The Halifax On. s. Sun says, in recent
Issue "A note worthy feature in the ship
ping on the great Canadianlakes is the rapid
ly increasing substitution of steamers for sail
ing vessels. The first craft ever launched on
Lake Erie, was built by the French for the
celebrated expedition of La Sale, so far back
as 1879 (Raynal, but it was only in 1897 that
the first Anglo-American vessel was launch
ed upon the lakes. The first steamer launch
ed in America was built in Lower Canada, to
run between Montreal and Quebec; this was
about the year 1872, the Legislature Of that
Province having, in the session of 1911, grant
ed monopoly of the route to one Nelson.
The first steamer on Lake Ontario was sent
sfioat in 1916; two years previously like
event took place on Lake Erie. In 1851 the
proportion Of tons of steam craft to sailing
craft was as 1900 to $4,000 The whole
tonnage on the lakes in 1920 amounted to
only $500 tons: in 1910 to 10000 in 1850
to 215,7S7 tons. In five years last past, the
ratio of increase is stated to have been much
greater; but even this hardly gives an idea
of the vast commerce of which these great
inland seas are destined to become the scene,
even before the closing of the current CEN
turY.

Democratic Mass Meeting.

BOSTON, OCT -.
There was a large Democratic mass meeting
at Huntington Hall, Lowell, last evening to
hear Hon. Rufus ChOate.
It's estimated that five thousand persons
were present.
After aIr. Choate had commenced his
speech the floor began to settle under the
weight of the crowd, creating a frightful pam
ic and stampede. Fortunately, no one was
hurt. and Mr.. Choate finished his speech
from the balcony Of the Merimac House.
This morning it was ascertained that the
floor had settled four inches, and would
doubtless have fallen through, bringing the
roof with it, had the audience remained i've
minutes longer.

FIRE IN THE WABASH BoTToM.-The Wa
bash bottom, opposite Terre Haute, has been
burning at a fearful rate for several days past.
Hundreds of cords of good timber have al
ready been consumed by the devouring ele-
ment, and as there is no means of checking
its progress, it IS not easy to tell how much
more damage will be done before we have
rain sufficient to put out the fire. Several
hundred PANELS of fence have burned up,
and many more are in danger.
This FIRE has been occasioned by boys set
ting fire to the leaves in order to more readily
find the hickory and pecan nuts, with which
the bottoms abound.
