NAVAL MILITIA
FLEET OPPOSED
SIR WILFRED LAURIER ARGUES IN
FAVOR OF KEEPING LAKES
NEUTRAL WATERS.
PREMIER SUPPORTS TREATY,
Rush-Bagot Convention in 1917 Provided
for Only Three Vessels on
Each Side.
NOW HANGS BY SLENDER THREAD

OTTAWA, Ontario, Dec Sir Viii,
frid Laurier, the Dominion premier
Wednesday came vigorously to the sup,
I port of the Rush-Bagot convention of
1917, which, by limiting British and
American ornaments on the Great
Lakes, practically neutralized the boun-
dairy waters.
Although Sir Wilfrid recently said the
matter was the subject of diplomatic ex-
changes with Washington, George e.
roster, M. Z. for North Toronto, one of
the principal members of the opposition.
again requested official information ON
me SUBJECT. After pointing out that the
united States had ten vessels on the
Great Lakes, manned by the naval mi
| ntla, instead of the three permitted -
! the treaty, Mr.. Foster declared the whole
| Canadian line was at the mercy of thiS
! force The premier said that Mr. Eos
ter S remarks would be more appropriotn
| IL he had suggested a remedy.
every Slender Thread"
This agreement has been in existepca
nearly one hundred years and has served
a a, very good purpose" said Sir Wilfrid.
The states which border on the Great
Lakes have been pressing the federal
authorities for share of the war an
preparations. The federal government
could not grant this unless the terms of
the convention of 1917 were interfered
with, and, although these conditions
nave not been absolutely maintained, I
shall not say that they have been I'M
fairly lnterfered with. The tenure of
life of that convention is a very slender
thread.
If the American government so do
sireu IL could put an end to the treaty in
SIX months time. Under the circum-
stances, what are we to do? Nv hon
orable friend says we should have n
modlhcat1On of the treaty That is more
easily said, perhaps, than done. He NAV
say put an end to the treaty, but that
would be worse. In that case whatever
armament might be established on the
one side we would have to follow suit.
Ought to Be Careful.
My honorable friend will realize that
the condition of things is such that we
ought to be very careful as to what we
do and what we say, and | do not think
that perhaps he has served as good n
purpose as no doubt he had in his mind
in bringing this matter to the attention
of the country. 1t is a matter which
has been engaging our attention again
and again.
There is correspondence of a nature
that can be brought down and | shall be
glad to lay that on the table, but there is
also other correspondence of conf
Dental nature, but such papers as can
be brought down [ shall submit to the
House"

FOR THE CONTRIBUTION BOX.
A Convenient Arrangement for Giving
Early and Often.

\ custom among attendants of the
Greek church at Trebizond explains the
use of certain tokens which have been
presented to the American Numismatic
society in this city.
According to the Journal Of the soci-
ETY. sometimes several collections are
made during the service in these
churches. Even should there be but one,
the visitor may desire to make special
contribution at the shrine or picture of
some of the saints whose intercession he
desires to secure, or he may wish to pur-
chase a candle for use in some of the
ceremonials in public or private devo-
fIonS.
On entering the church, therefore, he
exchanges a certain sum of money with
the deacon at the gate for an equivalent
amount of these tokens. He is thus able
to respond to the calls for the various
offerings during the service or to deposit
his gift at the shrine of the saint by US
ing one or more of these tokens as he
may be disposed, yet without any heavy
demand on his purse. These church to-
kens are sometimes of brass and some
times of paper.

INFANTS LEGS FROZEN.
Mother and Two Children Nearly Die
While Waiting for Train in
Unheated Station

DULUTH, Mimi, Dee. 2.-After
waiting six hours in an unheated railway
station at Gheen, Mimi, during which
she made Il desperate attempt to keep
herself and two small children from
freezing to death, Mrs. John Jokobich
found that her 7-months-old baby's legs
were frozen.
She lives in Koochiching county on the
Little Fork river, about eighteen miles
from Gheen.
Her 6-year-old girl, Maggie, acted so
peculiarly it was decided to take her to
Ely for examination by physician. The
mother, who is an Austrian, started with
Maggie and was compelled to take with
her the little baby.
1t was but o'clock i'll the morning
when she reached the station at Gheen
after the eighteen mile walk from her
home. There was no train until 10
O'Clock, and there was no fire in the sta
ton.
But it was warmer inside than out,
and Mrs. Jokobich remained within,
striving to keep herself warm and pre-
vent the baby and little girl from freez-
ing.
The little girl was successful but by
the time the train arrived the babys legs
were badly frozen.
Amputation will probably be neces-
sary. The other child has been sent to
a school for Predetermined.

GRIN AT COFFIN TALE.
Upper Peninsula Hunters Enjoy Mum
chausen Effort of Man Who In
vented Good Story

MARQUETTE, Mich, Dec. 2.-[Spe-
cial. Hunters of this vicinity are
laughing at the story sent out from Lans-
ing recently to the effect that a hunter
had been frustrated in an attempt to ship
500 cartridges in a coffin to Milwaukee,
by the keen scent Of game warden's
dog.
Inasmucn as Floodwood is only flag
station on the Milwaukee road, devoid of
depot, station agent, physician or ex-
press office, it seems obvious that no at
tempt was made to ship a supposed body
by express.
Also. experienced nimrods want to see
the color of the hair of a man who could
shoot 500 birds in a few days in the
locality mentioned, or pack them in any
thing short of an elephants casket if
he did bag so many.
