WHERE WOMEN ARE NEEDED.
According To Recent Ccn.u. british
Coionirs Cns Absorb n Large
Number Of the Fair on-s.

According to figures taken from
the recent census OF the British col
onics there Is n considerable short
age of women of marringrnblc age.
In two of these colonics-hustrniia
and Cnnndn-thcrc Is n chance for
100000 more to gain husbands and
homes.
According to the latest figures the
population of New South Wales con-
sis's of 100000 males and 6cs.00o fc-
males. Here Is n deficiency of io0.-
900.
In Victoria the discrepancy Is not
so marked. but In other colonies the
difference is proportionntcly larger.
In New Zealand. for instance, there
Is an excess OF 10000 males.
Perhaps II the women realized how
much they are needed there they
would go in bcvics. II Is said. how
ever. that they are too timid to VEN
ture into strange lands and are wait
ing for the colonists to come and
take them.

IL unknown.
The Gre was discovered by boys re-
siding near the grounds, aud an alarm
telephoned TO the lire station. Owing
to the long run, fully two miles, up
hill all the way, and a delay In getting
the water turned on, the lire gained
such Roadway that II could not be
checked. An explosion Of chemicals

The Ere started in the qualitative
