ST. NICHOLAS FOR September has
a long and varied table of contents,
one of the most attractive features of
which is a fanciful tale by Frank r..
Stockton, entitled The Battle of the
Third Cousins.n i" A Great Financial
Scheme" by Sophie SWEET, is very
funny story with very good moral.
The moral is pointed at the tendency
to speculate with other peoples money
and the loose ways of doing business
that SO largely contribute to the con-
slant emigration to Canada. The
story relates with rare humor how a
country boy attempted to emulate
the great Wall street spectators and
met with disastrous consequences.
The illustrations are especially note
worthy this month, and include full
page engraving direct from nature,
Elbridge Kingsley. and full-page
drawing, by Alfred E. Sterner, called
BY the Sea-"

The private room of Mrs. Watson,

some one during the presence of the
crowd attendant upon the circus, last
Saturday, and robbed of a considera-
able amount of money, gold watch
and various articles of jewelry be-
longing to Mrs. Watson's household.
This was one of the boldest robberies
ever committed in our town, and we
regret that there is no positive clue
as to the particular perpetrators of it.

Woodstock Guards went into campat
Island Park last Friday and remained

they can resume their studies after
