Gave Ont the Notice.

A minister in neighboring town, a
few Sundays ago surprised his audiences
by reading ihe following announcement
from the pulpit: "The regular session of
the donkey club will be held as usual at
the close of service. Members will line
up just outside the church door, make re-
marks and stare at the ladies who pass,as
is their custom. Any member known to
escort lady to church and sit with her
like gentleman will be expelled from
membership" The application was to
the point and the effect was marvellous.

fishing such other parts of its

be said about it has been said.
All the speculation which could
be INDUCED in about it has
been indulged. Nothing more
is left but to philosophically sit
quiet till it makes its appear
ance once more and while we.
are thus indolently engaged we
can do soma guessing as to
where our own fleets are, for
the departments here have put
time locks on the spokesman of
them. locks not to be opened
till the hour strikes for the
long-wished-for naval engage
ment, and maybe they will not
be opened then. For the rule

the interdiction against giving
out movements of vessels and

tends even to fights that are in
the past. This is shown more
