DULL IN ABERDEEN.
Granite Business Seriously Affected by
the War.

According to reports in the English
press, the monumental trade at Aber.
deem is described as dull without much
chance for improvement for some time.
The writer says. Both the home and
colonial trade is suffering from the ef-
fects Of the financial crisis, and the
number Of orders coming TO Aberdeen
have been Diminishing. In ordinary
times there is brisk export trade to
Canada and the United States at this
season of the year, but il appears that
the trade has been worse hit by the war
there than in England. ! have been in
formed, however, by one who is in close
touch with the Canadian granite trade
that there are some indications Of an
improvement in that quarter. On the
whole, there IL reason To fear that the
monumental trade will BE- worse before
IL is better. People just now are so
engrossed with the war that they have
no time nor heart for anything elsei
especially is this the case regarding
things that can wait, and monuments
come under that category. Monuments

TO take back scat for some time until
more urgent matters have been attended
to. and there breaks the dawn Of a more
peaceful period. The monumental trade
is hampered by many drawbacks just
now, including the high cost Of freight,
the uncertainty 81 shipments. the high |
rate Of insurance. and the difficulty Of

BETHEL
Local Baseball Team Beaten BY Wood
stock at Latter Place.

The local baseball team was defeated
in Woodstock on Saturday by score of
o TO 3. The defeat was wholly due to the
poor start made by the Bethel team, the
six runs by Woodstock being all made in
the first inning. After that the game
was close and interesting. Lavelle pitched
a good game, strlSing out eight bats
men, and was well caught by Williamson,
whose fielding errors, however, in the
first inning partly account for the dis
astrous result.

London. Feb. l6.--Forty British ana
French aeroplanes to-day made an
other massed attack on the German
positions along the Belgian coast
dropping bombs on the mole and locks
at Zeebrugge, to destroy or damage
the submarine base; on the guns at
Ostend and Middelkerke and on the
acrodrome at Ghistellcs. According TO
the official report, good results were
attained.
While the British airmen, all of the
air wing of the British navy, were
operating nearer the coast against gun
positions. submarine base, supply
trains and barges and the trawlers
used in mine-laying and mine-sweep-
ing operations, eight French airmen
attacked the aerodrome at Ghistelles,
five miles inland from Ostend, thus
preventing the German airmen from
making an attempt to cut of the Brit
ish machines.
In all 240 bombs we're dropped.
Those used by the British weighed
eighty-five pounds each.
The official report makes no men
tion of the airmen engaged, as 1t did
last week, when thirty-four OF the
navy's aircraft made similar raid,
though it is presumed that they ali
