Dor is showing the photograph repro

actual progress of the idea beyond the
mental stage.
The sail-wagon was talked of as
much as the steam wagon in the early
days of the horseless carriage, and
both alike promised but little in the
way of practical usefulness. But now
that the smooth and hard road, the
ball bearing, the pneumatic tire and
other improvements have arrived,
conditions have so changed that the
land sailboat is coming into view
again.
The German inventor has patented

Saw Chance for Graft.

An amusing incident was related
the other day by Lord Airedale, for
merly Sir James Kitson. the famous
iron and steel manufacturer. When
he was raised to the peerage two
years ago. and it was announced that
he had decided to take the title of
Lord Airedale, he received a COM
munication from the Airedale Terriers
society saying it was understood he
had selected his title from their club.
and therefore they hoped he could
see his way to present good cup to
the society. His lordship did not re-
spond to the request. Tit-Bits.

10000 AMERICAN
SETTLERS GO
TO CANADA
THE YEAR 1909 HAS SHOWN AN
INCREASE OF OVER EIGHTY
PER CENT IN AMERICAN
SETTLEMENT,

Recent advices from Canada. our
next door neighbour, the neighbourly
country across the boundary line,
are that upwards of ninety thousand
settlers from the United States went
into Western Canada during the past
year. most Of them for the purpose of
taking up and settling upon the va
cant lands, 100 acres of which are
given free by the government, and
lands adjoining held by railway and
land companies are selling at from
nine to fifteen and twenty dollars per
acre. Even II thirty and forty dollars
per acre were paid, the price would be
low, as the lands produce wonderfully.
and at these higher figures there is q
large interest on the money and labor
invested. The ninety thousand set.
tiers of last year. followed about sixty
thousand of the previous year, and for
several years the number has been
running into these large figures. There
must be a reason for it. 1t may be
found In the single phrase, they are
satisfied" Nothing attracts people
more than the success of others, and
the news OF this reaching other thou
sands, causes them to investigate. The
investigation in this case is always
satisfactory. The splendid land of
Iowa, of Indiana, Of Nebraska, Kansas,
Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio
and other States has risen to a high
value, and 1t Is worth every dollar
asked for it. But there is not room
now for all on these lands. With the
ever increasing demand for grain,
there comes the ever increasing de.
mand for land. Canada is the only
country on the continent in a position
to supply it. Land there that costs
say fifteen dollars an acre, produces
on reasonable calculation, Is bushels
of wheat to the acre, or about $4,000
The most liberal calculation as to cost
makes the cost to produce $3.50 per
acre, leaving a balance of $3.50 per
acre. The $3.50 carries good wages
for the farmer, and all other conceiv.
able contingencies. With conditions
like this, covering the entire area OF
about 100000 square miles, it Is read
lily understood why 10000 Americans
should follow the sixty thousand OF
the previous year. Canadian Govern
ment Agencies at different points in
the Union are always ready to give in
formation regarding the free home
stead lands, ready to advise the set
tier as to the districts which would
suit him best.

License Denied.

Considerable interest was taken in the
regular meeting of Beverly Common
Council Thursday evening, at which time
the granting of licenses for the sale Of
intoxicating liquors were presented.
The only objection was that of the
churches and the w. 9. T. U. against
Harry W. Vansciver, who sought to OBJ
tain license to run hotel on Broad
street, it being the same place for which
Council refused license last year to Mrs.
Herreshoff. The remonstrants stated that
already Beverly had too many licensed
places, the condition of the hotel itself,
as well as the neighborhood, had not
changed sufficiently to warrant the grant
ing of the same and that it would be
detrimental to the best interests of the
city. The main objection to the granting
of the license was presented by Attorney
Howard Eastwood of Burlington. on be

whose chapel is within 200 feet of the
place. He commended that If this license

new place within the meaning of the
act, as the place had been idle for year
which put 1t entirely out of business
The motion that license be refused was
carried by vote of Z to2.

The Medford team was here on Satur-
day. 1t is strong aggregation and
started with the promise of giving Mount
Holly pretty serious contest. But that
idea faded away after the third inning,
when the pitcher who was first put in the
box was taken out and the other fellow
was easy.
The game started with Medford at the
bat Neither side scored In the first
inning In the second Medtord's heavy
batters seemed to take liking to Silcox's
curves and sent the ball rolling around,
scoring one run. This was repeated In
the second inning, and the score stood
two to nothing in Medford's favor. In
the third inning Ballingall reached first
and was advanced to second on Silcex's
sacrifice hit. Cook was sent down on four
balls and went to second on Bars hit,
Ballingall going to third, and the bases
were full. Then Caldwell, Medford's
pitcher, began to get cold fingers. He
sent Lindsay down on a pass, forcing
Ballingall home. Perkins hit to the
pitcher and the latter did not know where
to throw the ball. He finally decided to
send it to first and caught Perkins Just in
time, but Cook scored. Barr tried to get
home but was caught at the plate. The
score was then tie. During all this per-
Torrance Caldwell kept his fingers twitch-
ing to indicate that he was disabled and
with this very charitable view Manager
Bowker took him from the box and put a
youngster named Kisteu in the position.
Kisten did all right the next inning, but
in the fourth he gave Cook pass, and the
latter scored on Bars two-base hit. Barr
went home on Lindsay's drive, but the
latter was left In the eighth inning
Mount Holly got two more runs. Charley
Peacock got clean hit and went to second
on Wolfrom's sacrifice. Then Logan got
a two-base hit, scoring Peacock, and
Ballingall was thrown out at first. Silcox
was next at bat. Nobody expected very
much, hence great surprise when the
latter sent beauty over second base,
scoring Logan from that station. Owing
to his inability to run Silcox did not get
beyond first. Cook finished the inning by
being thrown out at first.
The score was now six to two and that
was the way it ended. The details are as
follows:
