shows that this is not true The priv
ilege was given Canada first by arti-
Gle - of the treaty to send her pro-
ducts TO our ports for export. That
privilege never before existed until
congress enacted in March, 1873, that
the right should be given as long as
the fishery articles of the treaty re-
mained in force. They have 50 ceased,

ARRANGEMENTS will be perfected this afternoon.
Mr. Youmans had reached the ripe old age
of ninety-four and was still alert IN mind and
,ctive in his movements. He was a
fne example of the rugged American stock,
being essentially one of the plain people. He was
born in Coeymans, Albany County, in this State,
in 1894, but when he was six months old his
narents moved to Greenfield, near Saratoga
Springs. Here he worked upon his fathers farm
until he was sixteen years old, when he was APP
,,rcnticed to a carria emaker in Sheffield Mass.
Ills master proved to be hard one and ms iot
syas far more unsatisfactory than that OF most Oh
the apprentices of those days, During his nye
wears of service he was permitted to receive Only
gbree months schooling" This deprivation
bred in him the firm resolve that his children rem
