Mr.. Simpson said. Friday, that HI
wanted to make two things clear.
| THE first Is the fact that even 1,
the 1876 licenses are declared illegal
1t does not follow that the Pontchar

which licenses have been transferred

I is in the province of the council com

places which In their discretion

This was the exchange OF cour-

the matter Of the attempt on the

prosecutor, to force the common

wants a court opinion on the legality
OF transferring a license from one
saloonkeeper to another, when the
first saloonkeeper desires to retire
from business. The league holds
that this constitutes a surrender Of
the license.
Mr. Jasnowski explained. further
that James A. Murtha and Percy w
Grose had asked permission to lay
their views before him. when they
heard Of the contemplated proceed

Where It's Two Days at Once

A GREAT many people cannot see why,
when a man crosses the International
date line in the Pacific Ocean, if he goes
toward the east he loses a day, and if
toward the west he gains Il day That is,
if it, say, happens to be Tuesday just this
side, if he crosses To the west it will be Mon
day. The distance he may have actually
gone need hc only few feet; hut it is true
nevertheless The actual time may be only
a seconds difference.
To understand this, remember that we
go from Monday to Tuesday at twelve
O'Clock at night, jump Immediately from
one day to another. Consider also that if
man could travel toward the east as fast as
the earth rotatcS, and if he started at mid
day, with the sun directly overhead, he
would 20 completely round the earth in no
solar time al all for the sun would always

Siberian Signal Men

i Is probable that nowhere save i'm Siberia
are convictS employed in any service per-
tanning to the operation of railways In that
place of exile there are many good con-
duet men who spend their lives in little
huS along the line of railway, always a vcrst
apart whose duty it is to signal with green
flags that the road is clear. At night they
signal with a green lamp.
If the traveller stands between the rail
way cars at midnight, he may tick off the
green lights as the train spins along Away
down the black avenue will appear a tiny
green >peck. As the cars proceed this Speck
will become larger and largcr, and finally
