The journey from Chicoutimi
to Quebec is made entirely in the
day and the sights along the
route are perfectly sublime, as the
vessel moves onward over the
smooth water the rocks, the bays
snd projections; the perpendicu-
lar walls, the slanting sides. and
overhanging cliffs all pass before
the vision with constantly increas-
ing wonder and loveliness. We
stopped coming down and the Pc
culiar garb worn by some of the
people attracted much attention
from the party.
The vehicles for the transporta-
ton of passengers from the dock
up to the mountain where the
hotels are usually located, are the
funniest looking things we have
ever seen. There was one kind
of outfit that was indescribably
queer. 1t is called 'CoIlash" or

revered as is the good st. Anne.
Another interesting sight is the
Plains of Abraham where the
memorable battle between the
English and French was fought,
A massive marble column marks
the spot where the gallant Gen.
eral Wolfe fell aud we visited the
spot where the brave French Gen
eral MontcaIm was killed also the
Ursuline convent which contains
his remains. We spent the entire
day in and around Quebec and ev-
cry moment ofour time was given
TO enjoying the many interesting
spots there. The city is richer in
historical lore than any city in
the new world. Much of its his
tory has to do with that of our
country and in the early days of
our nation our gallant soldiers
have carried the stars. and stripes
right into this most powerfully
fortified city in America and it Is
here that the gallant American
General Montgomery was killed
while assaulting the place in the
revolutionary war.
Next week will conclude our
series of articles on our trip. They
have been written in haste with
no effort at word painting or EN-.
bellishment of any kind. They
simply depict a number of the
best sights we met with on. our
tour of eastern Canada. If they
have proven of interest to our
readers it will be as great a pleas
ure to Us as it was to behold them
on our trip. Next week our ar

Five Thousand For
A Hug and Kiss.

Five thousand dollars worth
of shock is the bill of cost pre-
sented by Miss Anna Irene Sher-
man, of Fall River, Mass, to
George Simmons for a brief but
vivid hug, with osculatory sc-
compartment delivered while
buggy riding.
Miss Sherman, who has enter
ed suit in the superior court offers
evidence which tends to show
that either Mr.. Simmons lacked
the necessary skill to execute the
peripatetic hug or that the tradi-
tions ofbuggy riding have UNDER
gonea sudden change.
The occasion was The Fourth
of July and Miss Sherman still
in her teens, and exceedingly
pretty, is willing to admit provo
cation, but she demands financial
atonement for the hug, Mental
and ply ical cruelty she calls it.
When she rebelled-he had ta-
ken away her breath at first and
she conldn'tspeak-he kept right
on. She demonstrated a secon d
time, but Mr.. Simmons who
thought he knew the girls, was
too much occupied to reply. Th en-
she fought, whereupon, she as
serts, he slapped her and pulled
her hair. She escaped and ran
back home and has kept on being
shocked ever since.
Simmons is a man of wealth
and his reputation as a hugger is
now at stake.
