He turned people away until the train
started, and stood guard at our door at
every station except one. Then he was
busy elsewhere, and our box was invaded
by man and wife and a second woman
and four children. The guard saw them
soon after they had entered the compart-
ment, and he ''shooed' them all out
much the same as woman drives the
chickens in a barn-yard. The first-class
fare for that 200-mile ride would have
been 81 %, but our tickets cost only q u.
Afterward l never saw men filing the

fining the international boundary gave
the United States slice of Canadian ter
ritory equal to that of Rhode Island. On
the contrary, the survey made by the
Canadian Government at Port Moody in
dicated that Canada had secured q quar-
ter of mile of American territory for a
distance of several miles.
The Surveyor-General added that the
grand mistake was made in 1773 in sur
veying the boundary line between Que
bee Province and the United States. For
distance of 1850 miles the Americans
secured Canadian territory amounting at
some points to over a mile over q true
line, but this was compensated for by
errors in favor of Canada.
