Hundreds of people assembled early
last evening to read the election bull
letins as they were displayed by
stereopdcon on the west wall of the
Royal Bank building. It was a pa
tient but enthusiastic crowd The

only fragmentary. and though it was
apparent that Campbell was well in
the lead, the information was neces-
sarily indefinite, because of the slow
methods Of counting, ETC. under the
election law.

earlier bulletins received:

 Born-When?

Small as a Peanut Blind. Hairless and
 Born-When?
 It's a dull day now when the nature folks don't get into new squabble of some sort. Just at present the readers of Suburban Life are torn up over the question of gray squirrels.
 Says Edward Howe Forbush: "The gray squirrel brings forth its young usually, I think in May, but often has anither brood late in August or early in September"
 This sounds all right to the unna- tured person, but not so to s. H. French, who says: From my experi- ence in raising gray squirrels can say that usually they are born in Feb ruary and March, although l have had some filters as late as July 19. have a nest of little ones that were probably born two or three days ago. The young squirrels resemble young rats and when born are about as large as small peanut
 "They are, of course, entirely devoid of hair and we do not notice any indi- cations In that direction until they are three of four weeks old Their eyes are not open until the age of six weeks; from that time on they seem to develop quite rapidly, but seldom leave the nest until they are from ten weeks to three months of age.
 At that time they become quite playful, a good deal after the manner of kittens, especially when everything is very still where they are located. They are naturally very shy, and it is difficult to handle them with any de- gree of comfort as they squirm and fight to free themselves.
