One Of Oldest Legends,
That of Wandering Jew

How long the story of the EVAN.
dering Jew" has been in circulation
and what was it's origin, are ques-
lions on which there is no evidence
to base replies. But it is certain
that from the period Of its first writ
ing it became more prevalent than
ever in various homes.
1t was not till after that the aspect
of eternal wandering was introduced
and this was possibly encouraged by
the fact that at intervals persons
claiming to be the original "Wander,
ing Jew" made their appearance in
different parts of Europe.
According to the Italian astrologer
Guido Bonnati, the wanderer passed
through Forli in 1867. Philip OF
Novara, famous jurist who resided
for a long time in Jerusalem, writing
in 1850, refers to one Jehan Boute
Dieu as one proverbially long-lived
suggesting that the legend was then
well established in Jerusalem.

OLD SEWER UNEARTHED
 ON COMMERCIAL STREET
Underground Aqueduct, Used Many Years Ago, Brought to Light
 in Excavation Job. :.

The old sewer that formerly emp tied into the present Hartford ave- nue storm sewer over which so much has been written this past summer, was located yesterday while work men were digging a trench in yard on Commercial street
 The sewer, which has not been used in probably so years, formerly took off the water from West Main street to the larger sewer that runs from the Lock shop" pond to Stan ley street, above the Hartford ave- nue junction. 1t took curved course through Washington place south of the railroad tracks, and then under the tracks, just south of the police station, and across Com mercial street to East Main street, where it joined the present storm water sewer.
 Several years ago a part ot the sewer was dug up but its presence had been forgotten. Yesterday, while digging q deep trench in which to set q gasoline tank, the opening Of the old sewer was discovered.

CANADA CONSIDERS
 NEW TARIFF RATES
Increase in Duties Believed Aid
 to Unemployed Men

Ottawa, Seph 1T (P>-As a tenn porary measure to relieve unemploy- ment, an increased tariff schedule, submitted by Premier R. B. Ben- nett, was in effect today.
 The increased rates are designed to keep out foreign products, thus stimulating dominion manufacturers which the government believes will provide work for 25,000 unemployed.
 A total of 130 articles are listed on the increased schedule which consists of three classes of rates British preference rates, generally hte lowest under which goods from the British Empire are admitted: intermediate rates, applying to goods from favored nations, and general rates, which apply to goods from the United States and other nations not bound by reciprocal trade agree ments.
 The proposed schedule carries higher rates in almost all cases than the countervailing duties levied by the former liberal government soon after the new United States tariff went into effect.
 Premier Bennett said a thorough revision of the tariff would be under taken at the next regular session of parliament. The present session of parliament was called to deal with unemployment only.
 May Cut Duty
 One of the provisions of the gov ernment bill is that the cabinet may reduce or remove the duties on ar t:cles whose manufactures increase their prices. This is designed to pro- teCt consumers from paying increas- ed charges for home manufactured articles protected by the tariff.
 Among the articles on which in- creased tariff rates would apply are: 1 Fresh meats, butter and agricultural products generally, iron and steel, textiles, silks, boots and shoes, ad- Vertising matter paper metals and mineral products including gasoline and brass and copper bars agricul- tural implements, kitchen ware, heating apparatus and electrical ap- paratus.
 Gasoline, which had been on the free list, would be subjected to a duty of cents per gallon under the British preference, A cents inter mediate, and ? F cents general.
 Agricultural machinery in most cases remains free on the British preference list, while the intermedi- per cent and the general rate from : F to 5 per cent.
