advises everybody to yawn as deeply as
possible, with arms outstretched, in or

BARON MOUNT STEPHEN, for
mer president of the Canadian Pacific
Railway, was born In Scotland, June 5,
1929. His parents were of the common
people. AS a lad he learned the trade
OF a draper, but was not content with
the prospects afforded him at home. So
he crossed the sea to Canada, started in
the cloth manufacturing business and
grew rich. He was elected the governor
of the Bank of Montreal. He was part
of the beginnings of the great Canadian
Pacific Railway, and it was largely to
his genius that was due the successful
carrying out of the project. He was
the first president OF the railroad, and
IN 1886 Queen Victoria created him a
Baronet of the United Kingdom in order
to show the appreciation the government
felt for the building of the great imperial
highway across the continent In late
years Baron Mount Stephen has made
his home in England.

that Major Werner was to be ousted.
that Captain Mcmahon was to be

Werner and Captain Mcmahon were
smiling confidently yesterday after

busy as usual. They are used to such
rumors, and give them not even a
passing thought.

Police Commissioners. But neither OF
the new commissioners knew anything
OF the rumor or had heard of 1t unfit
newspaper men. Both said that they
had not only not thought of such a
thing, but did not even contemplate a
movement to reorganize the police
force In any way whatever.
Put no Credence in 1t.
Other commissioners who were
seen talked in like strain, and were
surprised that the rumor had gained

of the strict efficiency of Major Werner

listed here twenty or thirty years ago,

said some of the authorities, is gone

has changed. and With the change,
of sentiment for better things has
come a greater and corresponding ef-

The Detective Department has never
