of rticon
Theso well known pedestrians mot
for tho sCcond time in their com
petition the conditions being to run
1 milo for Iho championship of tho
world and a bet of 100 aside Tho
pair wore inatohod Borne lime ago to
contest tho best of 8 races each for
a similar amouut and tho first raco
of tho 3 took placo a fortnight ago
at Dublin on which occasion Con
ueff was not well and Bacon thou
wou oasily For tho match under
notice Connoff had undergone his
preparation at Blackpool to which
placo ho went after his defeat in
Irolaud Bacon as usual adjourned
to Morocambe whore under tho
care of W Cummins ho finished his
preparation and canio to tho mark
as lit as possible jlho morning
opened lino but as tho afternoon
wore on tho clouds began to gather
and whou tho timo for tho start was
roachod a slight drizzling rain came
down which continued throughout
tho race Nevertheless there was a
very fair attendance numbering
about 7000 or 8000 spectators Bet
ting was practically at a standstill
as despite the reports of Councils
improved condition odds of C and 7
to 1 on Bacon wont bogging It was
a fow minutes to 5 or nearly half an
hour after tho ad vortUed time when
the men camo out of tho dressing
room Couneff leading Both run
ners came in for an ovation and
after tho usual photographing pro
cess were dispatched by W H Mor
ton Gounod dashed off with tho
lead and at a good pace led his
opponent by a couple of yards
covering tho first quarter in G2soc
Tho half distance was reached in
2min 9aec and tho three quarters
3min 20 2 5sec From this point
however tho issuo was never in
doubt as Conneffs pace fell off and
Bacon ran up to tho shoulder of the
little Yankee Tho latter howovor
could not respond and Bacon con
tented himself with lying in the rear
until 100 yards from home when ho
rushed to tho front and won in tho
easiest manner possible by 30 yards
Time 35 2 5soc The People
Cabbago Worms
Tho most common cabbago cater
pillar is tho larvae form of tho white
butterfly so often seen about tho
plants dipositing its eggs Aside
from this larvae there are atao
several others which attack tho cab
bago being tho larvae of several
other species of butterflies and
moths But whilo thoro are several
species of caterpillars on the plants
yot the habit of all aro very similar
so that the same remedies are appli
cable to all Just as soon as tho
worms aro noticed on tho plants
Paris green either dry or mixed
with water should be applied In
this case it is perhaps best to make
tho application in a dry form by
meanB of any of the many ways for
making application A common
flour sack will do for this purpose if
nothing better is at hand although
nothing equals the Champion
powder gun for tho application of
any dry powders
When applied to tho cabbago tho
grcon should be diluted with about
twenty parts of flour the effective
ness of the application depending
not bo much on tho amouut used as
the ovonness of tho distribution
Tho greon howover should not bo
applied to the plants after they
have formed heads but pyrothrum
or insect powder should then bo
used instead But tho question is
often asked Will not the green
poison tho plants and -render thorn
unfit for use But tho cabbage
grows from within an thoro is no
danger in tho use of Paris green
provided it is not applied after tho
heads havo formed By tho timo
tho outer leaves aro taken off and
tho cabbago is ready for the tablo
thoro is left no trace of arsenic

An Old Nowspapor
Quo of the oldest nowspapors in
Canada is tho Montreal Gazette
which was foundod by Benjamin
Franklin During tho Revolutionary
War Ethan Allon and a battalion of
his Groat Mountain boy a attacked

made prisonorsby Governor General
Carleton Montgomery wont later
captured tho city and took posses
sion of tho Continental Congross
Then Benjamin Franklin wont north
as a sort of informal ambassador
and ondeavorod to porsnado the
Canadians to join Now Eugland and
tho other Colonies in tho revolution
Among other measures used by him
to influeuco public opinion was tho
establishment of tho Gazette
Painful Dentistry
Tho most barbarous method of
dentistry is that practised by tho
Kaffirs Tho Kaffir dontist places
his patient on tho grotiud and -1
men hold him down 2 taking his
arms and 2 his legs Then tho oper
ator kneels down besido him and
taking a piece of sharpened ivory
steel or wood calmly proceeds to
hack away at tho gum until the of
feudedtooth is looso He then ox
tracts it with finger aud thumb the
patient having suffered naturally
unspeakable agonies Tho timo occu
pied in the operation is often of long
duration sometimes extending over
as much as 30 minutes but of
course this varies according to tho
strength of tho tooth
