One Of the most picturesque remains
OF the glories Of New France, whose
history and legends date back TO the

ton: in the reign OF Louis XIV. Of
France and Navarro, the Marquise de
Nandreuil being governor Of New
France, this fort was erected in I'LL,
burned in 177G, restored by Guy Carrie

repaired in 1882 in the reign of Vic

the burning referred to SAY by the

the fort in 177j under General Mont

Why Is 1t that n policeman of medi-

and sometimes three men his size IN n

discussing the question. "I'n tell you
why II is he said. 1T is simply be-
cause the policeman Is in uniform The
uniform denotes authority, and that
takes the nerve out OF his opponents
TO certain extent They know that
they are breaking the law by resisting
him, while he might even kill them and
not commit a crime. All through a fight
with a policeman the other fellow or
fellows are thinking OF escape. The
officer isn't He's thinking Of subdung
and arresting the man or men. He puts
his whole effort and strength into It,
while his opponents generally fight in
n half hearted way. Put policeman in
