The purest soap obtainable is
the best and cheapest. Dob
bins Electric Soap is pure,
white, unscented, unadulter-

soap, or strong alkali washing
powder, and lose dollars in ru-

Court.
NEW York, Dec. pa dispatch from
Jacksonville, Fla, ssys:
It looks as though the Corbett- Mitchell
meeting will not take place. The managers
of the Duval club are in a state of panic,
and do not know which way to turn. The
arraignment of the men was arranged to
determine the law and get decision that
the match az described in the articles of
agreement would not be an illegal act.
Governor Mitchell refuses to either oounte.-
nance the proceedings while they pend or
to respect the decision of the court when
1t is rendered. This is what he said;
81 shall not be garroted by any county or
circuit courts decision. There are seven
circuit courts and each one may give a diff
ferent Judgment. If the case Is submitted
to the supreme court as last resort and If
the court decides that have no authority
to prevent the fight I will be governed by
1t; but will not be governed by the de-
cision of any other court in the state"
JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Dec. 2S.-It has
been decided to have the Corbett Mitchell
fight take place at II O'Clock in the morning
instead of ut night, as no arrangements for

HALIFAX, Dec. 29.-The tank steamer
Astral, twenty-five days from stettin for
New York, arrived this morning. She re-
ports on December 8 in the North sea

The steamer met terrible weather and
nearly foundered. Several of the crew
were injured. On the 18th, six hundred
miles from the Irish coast, the Astral
passed the four-mastsd ship Barrarah, of

But for the heavy sea the
steamer would have tried to tow the ship

In the postoffice during illness the
female clerks, like the male staff.
are paid full salary in illness during
the first six months and half nav
during the second portion of a
years absence. The other ladies en-
ployed behind the postal counters
are paid their wages if the illness ex
tends to week; if it is a small
affair and they are able to be back
again in day or two a deduction is
made from the salary for the time

Keeping Warm.
1t is often said that residents of the

This fact. if it is fact may pe,.

than one, but the explanation offered
by MIR. Julian Ralph in his book
"On Canadas Frontier seems to be
adequate
He says that the reason why the
people do not suffer more from the
