ANOTHER USE FOR WIRELESS.

Newfoundland's sealing fleet went forth this year fully equipped with wireless telegraph apparatus. It is expected that the wireless will not only relieve the anxiety which is often felt for the safety of the seal CTS, but that it will also be of inn mense advantage in locating the quarry of which the fleet goes in search. The fleet this year consists of 23 steamships, manned by nearly 1000 men; I, of the vessels pro- ceed to the Grand Banks, while the other six cruise in the Gulf of St. Lawrence In former years the vicinity of the Magdalen islands, 40 miles to the north of Prince Edward island, was good sealing ground, but of late years the seals have not been found in that district in any great numbers.

Sunday was Hot.

Yesterday and last night were the hottest of the summer to date, and the principal occupation of Conway people consisted in trying to find place to keep cool. The temperature was not excessively high, but the humidity of the at mosphere made the heat almost unbearable. The entire country east of the Rocky mountains is sweltering in hot wave, which the weather b1reau says is likely to continue for several days.

IS LIKED BY THE MEXlCkNS
American Bullfighter Has Earned Praise from Our Neighbors on
 the South.

There is at least one American bullfghter in existence. His name is Harper B. Lee. He took part in a bullfght at Guanajuato, Mexico, on April 19 last, appearing as full fedged "matador," or killer of bulls.
 In reviewing the fight a City of Mexico newspaper has good deal to say about Toreador Lee. Although he is not of the very best caliber, ayers the bullfght reporter of the said paper, he nevertheless earns con siderable applause when he kills his bulls, owing to the fact that he stabs, as a rule, deeply and accurately. But with the "capote" or cloak he is not up to the Spanish standard. In his handling of the ''muleta," the red cloth used by the "matador" to ward off the bulls charges when the time has come for the death. Lee seems to be far below the average, if the same reporter is to be believed. But with the ''banderillas," or barbs, he is an expert.
 At times" says the Mexican re- porter, Che places them eAcellently, since he is tall enough to tower over the bull"
 It would be interesting to know how Lee got into the bullfighting game-perhaps it was because he was desirous to return the compli- ment paid to Uncle sam by the many Mexicans who are enthusiastic baseball players.

First M0ss.

Last Sunday a beautiful and i'm
pressive ceremony, was that of the
High Mass at the Catholic church,
which was the occasion of a young
priest saying his first mass.
Rev. Father Francois Murgul a
young man who has just been or
dained, who we learn, will be as
sistant to Father Thebault, came
here to say his first mass in our
grand old church and among the
people he is to serve as a minister
of God.
The old church had put out all
her best and most costly orna-
ments for this impressive occa-
sion aud the choir and organist
excelled all previous efforts and
sang this brilliant mass in most
beautiful manner.

4 SUGGESTION.

We can see that the new School
Board, being three on each side of
our political factions, will never
agree. and can never organize.
They will not resign because if
they do SO they believe Gov. San
ders will reappoint the side of DIR.
Olivier and keep them in control
of school affairs, that is the Gull
beau side believe this will hap
pen. and we are of the same OPT
Mon.
We believe, however, that the
present school board can come to
some understanding, if they only
show little patriotism, by them
selves selecting six members who
will be non-partisans and get the
promise of Gov. Sanders that the
members recommended by them
will be appointed if they all re-
sign.
We believe this is the only fea-
sible plan to keep harmony in the
school board and entirely elimi-
nate the politics which is now
playing such a disturbing part in
our school affairs.

Our School Troubles.

week about our school troubles
and gave our readers the condition
of our present school board which
is evenly divided, politically.
Their first meeting created SEN
satiOn and comments and discus
sions about school board and
schools affairs were the only thing
heard Oh the streets.
Friday evening last State Super.
intendent L. IL. Harris came here
to try and arrange matters to the
satisfaction Of both sides. The
first thing Supt. Harris did, was
to explain why Supt. Favrot had
voted in the election of the Presi-
dent at the meeting on the previ-
Gus Monday, saying that after con-
sultiDg the Assistant Attorney
General he had come to that con-
cIusiou, but he said lie was wrong,
and assumed the blame for Supt.
Favrot's action, and declared that
all that was done at that meeting
was null aud void, that there was
no organization at all.
When Supt. Harris opened the
conference DIR. Olivier asked for
all executive session saying that
outsiders at the previous meeting,
had caused all the trouble. DIR.
Guilbeau opposed this and said
that he believed what was said and
done, should be public, and this
was acceptable to all when Supt.
Harris announced that none but
the members of the board would
be heard at this conference.
Supt. Harris gave the members
a little talk Oh the condition of af-
fairs aud told them that he under.
stand that their fight was for poll
teal control of the board, but that
should be overlooked and only the
people and children of this parish
were to be considered as the inter-
ference or suspension Of the pub
lie school would be great injury
aud injustice to the innocent chill
dren of the parish, who should not
be made to suffer for the political
advancement of one faction or the
other, aud he said he hated to say
that ho had to call them factions.
When Mr.. Harris was through
with his argument, DIR. Guilbeau,
Bienvenu aud Gauthier consulted
privately with Supt. Harris and
proposed to have DIR. Olivier and
DIR. Guilbeau Withdraw from their
fight for the presidency, to elect
MIR. "A. Z. Gauthier president and
Mr.. Favrot superintendent, Pied
cling to confirm MIR. Favrot's ap.
pointment for the term of four
years at his present salary. Supt.
Harris conferred with DIR. Olivier
and MIR. Dupuis, MIR. CarIine be-
ing absent, the Olivier side refus-
ell this compromise saying Mr..
Gauthler was too young to fill the
position of president of the school
board.
Supt. Harris made another little
talk in favor of harmony, and the
Guilbeau side offered to decide the
presidency by drawing lots. this
Was also refused by the Olivier
side.
Then the Guilbeau side seeing
that they could not effect an agree
ment, that they could make no
withdrew.
