revival in another and in addition
several social functions were i'm pro-
gress. There was no opportunity for
a public address, but ministers came
in person to confer with me as to the
best plan for getting my work before
the people and decided they would
phone the women in their respective
churches and urge them to meet me
in the study OF one pastor and, if
possible, organize a w. c. 7. u,

WILLIAM -BONNEAU
FINED FOR KEEPING
AGAMBl|NG HOUSE

William Bonneau was before the mu-
nicipal court Tuesday morning to an
swer to complaint sworn out against
him by Archie Trepanier and charging
him with maintaining a gambling
house at the Bonneau pool room at 1863
Water street. The respondent was rep
resented by f. i. Mclean of the law
firm of Williamson, Burleigh & Mclean
and entered plea of not guilty.
Five witnesses appeared for the COM
plainant and all testified to playing
what is known as dead pool" that is
five cents for the game and FIVE cents
for the killing" 1t also came out in
the testimony that several were en-
ployed by the respondent to play for
the house, among them Trepanier,
who played several games and got beat
en-, which experience may have had
something to do with the trouble. The
house still got paid for the games but
did not make any profit. At the con-
clusion of the testimony the counsel
for the respondent submitted no argu-
nent and the court disposed of the case
by imposing on the respondent fine
and costs amounting to $50, which was
paid.
The only other case before the court
for the day was one in which the
charge was intoxication and in which
the respondent was found guilty and
given a sentence of so days in Jail.
Sentence was however suspended

HAS MANY RELICS
William E. Turner, Capital Street,
Owner of Fine Collection

gay did You ever sec a pair of
spectac!es much older than these"
said William +, Turner Tuesday morn
ing to Il Journal reporter. who had
lust entered his store on Capitol
street, and as he spoke he produced
a tin case which contained the glasses.
After examining the a9ectaclas the
Journal man admitted that he had
rever seen such relic in the line Of
spectacles nor did he expect to for
long time to come. The rims ana
bows oc the SpectaCles were made by
hand from steel. and uncer a strong
glass the fire marks upon the steo!
can be plainly seen. The glass was
Clipped out with q pair OF plncers in
stead Of being cut out. On each DO"
il hinge 50 that the glasses can be
folded and put IN their case. AS far
~ Mr.. Turner can tell these spectacles
are at least 200 years old. he having
procured them from man so years
oc age. whose grandfather had pre-
viously owned them. The spectacles
We're made upon an anvil.
Mir. Turner has for long time had
fad for collecting antiquities, max
ing firearms and coins his speciality.
Among the firearms he has stevens
carbine. one of the earliest types OF
that weapon manufactured. He also
las burnside carbine. both Of them
having been used before the CiVit'
War. He has an old cutlass and scab-
bard, which was used in the War OF
1872 Among other relics are pow
Ger and ball pistol with powder
flask and cap box, and an old quad
rant $50 years old. used by mariners
of the 18th century in the navigation
of their ships. He also has a revolver
and its holster of the war time mod
els. This pistol had to be loaded
with powder and ball and a percus-
sion cap. He has harpoon, once
used on board the whaling ship. y. J.
Arnold, the harpoon having been dug
out Of big whale. 1t is supposed to
be more than 100 years old.
In the collection there is one ar
ticle which is Of great interest not be
cause of its great age but because OF
the fact that Mr.. Turner manufac-
tured it when he was boy. 1t is
xylophonc. made out Of floor boards,
and when played gives forth excellent
tones.
