-Several of our larger property
owners have asked me for my view* as
to how the purchase of the Tillson
burg Waterworks system by the town
will affect the citizens and particu-
the property owners. After due con
sideration, and with some hesitancy. I
have decided to place my view* on the
matter before the rate payers. I shall
doubtless be misunderstood by many,
especially as to motive, but in writing
this letter I would like it to be under
stood that 1 am writing from the point
of view of a shareholder and the presi
dent of The E. D. Tillson Estate,
Limited. A* The E. D. Tillson Estate,
Limited is a very large taxpayer you
can understand that it will view this
whole transaction from a critical and
unbiased attitude and from the same
point of view as any other taxpayer
in the town.
Aftef considerable negotiations be
tween the Waterworks Company and
the town, an agreement was entered
into between them subject to ratifi
cation by the ratepayers. By this
agreement the Company agrees to
sell and the Corporation agrees to
purchase:
I. AU the works, property and asset*
of the company owned or used by it
in connection with the operation of
it* Waterworks System. including
lands, premises, property, casements,
rights and privilege* further described.
2 It is agreed that at the expiration
of two years from the date of the
sale, the Corporation will release to
the company all the right, title, inter
est. claim and demand of the Corpora
tion in the collecting lines of the
water system installed in or upon the lands known a* Annandale Farm. It
is further agreed that during the said
two year period the Corj>oration shall
supply Annadale Farm with water as
provided in an agreement dated 21st
of August. 1895. /3. The Corporation shaU be granted
the right to use the prc**ure distribu
tion system of Annandale Farm for
its natural life with right to repair but
not to renew and when pressure sys
tem *hall hare become worn out or
abandoned it shall be transferred to
the company.A short interpretaton
above extract from 1
ment is that the
will have the use of all the water
collected upon Annandale Farm a* at
present for a period of two year*,
after which time the Corporation must
release all its rights on Annandale
Fann and find an alternative supply
somewhere else. It will, however, own
the Vienna Woods property outright
with the water collection upon it, be
ing roughly' about half of all the water
obtained from all sources at the
present time. It is also probable that
a further supply could be developed
from the Vienna Wood* property.
The amount of water obtainable
during the Spring, late Autumn and
Winter is alx.ut 605.000 gallon* per
twenty-four hours. This include* the
Wimkcll line. Thi* amount cannot,
however, be obtained during the
summer month*. Of thi* amount
Annandale Farm supplies about 240.-
000 gallons per twenty-four hours or
40%. A* the pre*ent supply is not very
much greater during the Spring, late
Autumn and Winter month* than the
demand, and as it is just^about equal
to the total demand in a dry season,
the town will be obliged to procure
from some other source not less than
300,000 gallons per twenty-four hour*.
A* there must be a margin or wast
age to draw upon* during a dry season
the town will find it absolutely neces
sary to increase their supply not later
than next summer. I have no infor
mation from the town’s engineer a*
to where or how he propose* to
obtain thi* additional water. A portion
of it can be obtained by developing
the Vienna Wood* source but just
how much.I am unable to say. It i*
being said that the water can be obtained by putting down a “deep well
system. Anyone who is acquainted
with the results of many year* experi
menting by various oil and gas com
panies in their effort* to obtain ot! or gas in thi* vicinity, will understand
that a deep well system is not feasible
in thi* district a* the underlying layers
are impregnated and yield nothmg but
sulphur water. Thi* could not be
used and would not be acceptable to
the citizen* for their daily need*. The
Waterworks Company tried the deep
well scheme and owing to the sulphur
water were compelled to abandon it a*
a source of supply.It is scientifically possible that the
town could use the water from Otter
Creek or the Waterworks Pond after
subjecting the water to a process of
filtration, aeration, chlorination, and
by the use of settling basin* in which
alum and other ingredient* are used to
clarify and sterilize the water. Thi*
scheme is possible but costly and I
doubt very much whether our citizens
would take kindly to water obtained
under those conditions considering
that they have had nothing but pure
spring water for the last thirty year*.
Nevertheless, a sufficient supply must
be obtained from some other source
than Annandale Farm after two year*,
as at the end of that time the farm

Vienna, August 14.—A beautiful
sunny day with just enough breeze
to make it ideal, and this piclureque
village on the bank, of .the Otter be
decked in bunting, seething with ex
citement and full of hospitality, greet
ed many old timers to Vienna*. Old
Home Week on Monday. Former
resident, of the village from many dis
tant point, thronged in. They came
from the westermost part, of the
continent and from the east. Up to
noon today two hundred had register
ed and the conunitte feel that the total
population of Vienna for the week
will probably be in the thousands.
Entering the town over the splen
did G. F. Curtis roadway from Port
Burwell, one passes through attractive
evergreen arches, with welcome em
blazoned on it. The houses are fit
tingly decorated with bunting, lights
are strung in the street. The main
street has been closed to traffic and in
the enclosure there is a miniature
midway, with sideshows, hot-dug
stand*, merry-go-round, etc. A new
piece of pavement ha* been laid
specially for the dances every even
ing.Monday was the first day of the
celebration and there was plenty of
entertainment. Things got going early.
After the opening of the registration

The directors of the Tillsonburg' and
Dereham Agricultural Society held a
special meeting at the fair grounds on Sfonday evening, to make final ar
rangements for the annual exhibition
to be held next week. Wonderful im
provements have been made to the
grounds by levelling and resodding
that will give the directors a great
deal more parking and exhibition
space. It was decided to move the
hydro poles to a permanent position
on the ground* and also use several
loads of cinders adjacent to the grand
stand. under the supervision of Mr.
Charles Yokom. The track and ad
jacent grounds are in the best shape
in the history of the town, and new
fence* and gate* have been erected on
the north west side. The building
space was all sold a week ago, and Several outside firm* had to be refused.
The meeting adjourned to the
Royal Hotel at, 8.15. where president
Johnston was greeted with a 100
cent attendance. After the minute*
report of the committee on rain surance recommending a policy
525W00 foe the three days, wa*
cepted. Charles Yokom was appointed
track manager, and Cha*. Williams
chairman of the an* exhibit.
Special tent* wilt be erected for the

Kay. Don and George Emmerson were
dressed in full Indian regalia, and
looked the part of real redskins.
Conceded to be the cleverest outfit
in the parade was the team harnessed
with an old inverted ox yoke with
rope* to guide the pair. It was en
tered by Charles Walsh and Asa
Grant, who rode in the cart. The boy*
were dressed as clown* and the

HALF-BAKED
BREAD
Just as half-baked bread raises havoc with
your digestion, so improperly cured (baked)
tires raise havoc with your motor comfort
and your pocket-book.
To be properly cured, a tire must be
heated from the inside as well as outside,
because rubber is a poor conductor of heat.
The Goodrich “Water Cure” is the only
method which cures a tire equally inside and
out, thereby assuring you maximum mile
age for your money.

“CUTMOR” SHARPENER
Made in Canada
At last—A real Sharpener for all Safety Razor Blades
A little story about dull razor blades and how
to keep them sharp.
The Cutmor sharpener is a Man’s best investment. The
first year’s saving in blades absorb's the cost and pays a Hand
some profit. .• x. -
The ease and safety of the “Safety Razor Shave” has been
handicapped by the continual blade expense. Some blades
last only for one shave; others for four or five, according to
the stiffness of the beard.
This expense and waste can be stopped by using the
"Cutmor” Sharpener. Barbers have found no better way to
re-sharpen their razors than by using a hone and strop.
That is exactly what we use in the "Cutmor,” a combina
tion Hone and Strop. A few rubs oh the fast cutting hone,
hones the edge to a V or wedge point, a few rubs on our speci
ally prepared strop takes off the wire edge and gives a keen,
smooth finish that insures a good quick shave.

A Woman Wronged
------OR------
The Secret of a Crime
BY CARDUNE HART
CHAPTER XVI
Another Pair of Lovers.
The knowledge of which Herbert
spoke appears to come to some wo
men's hearts instinctively. Helen was
one of these women. Torn so early from
those whom Nature had made dear;
separated now from the girlish affection
that had done so much to compensate
for the severance of nearer tics; heart-
hungry in the present for love, the
woman’s heart in her bosom beat re
sponsive to her brother’s story, and
taught her how to sympathize with a
passion he was yet too young to ex
perience in her own behalf. She listen
ed eagerly to the history of Florrie
and Herbert’s love. She rejoiced in,
and yet envied them, their happiness.
How blessed was love, she thought;
what bliss it brought to the loved ones;
ah, yes her whole heart echoed Her
bert s prayer, that it might come to her
also some day, and bring her happiness!
In the meantime there was joy
enough in the thought that these two
—so dear to her heart.,were lovers, and
would some day be united.
Florrie always said that I should,
live with her when she got married,"
she said joyously, “^h, that will be a
pleasant home indeed/dear Bert, with
you for a master. It will need a brave
lover indeed. I think, to tempt me away
from it."
But meantime this happy home was a
thing of the faroff future, for the lovers
did not flatter themselves that Mr.
Hamilton would approve their wishes,
and Florrie had stipulated that their en
gagement—for matters had gone thus
far— should be kept a secret, until
Bertie's prospects had so far improved
that he should be captain of a ship, at
least. To Florence, in her hopeful ignorance this did nofTeem very long to
wait; and if Herbert, better appreciat
ing actual facts, was less confident of
speedy advancement, he kept his fears
to himself and let her live free of them.
Meantime all his hopes, all his efforts
were bent toward attaining the desired Emotion, but he might have waited
g for it, had it not.come, at last,
frojn the quarter whence it was least
expected—namely, from Mr. Hamilton
himself.
And this was how the matter came
about.—in a fashion that Florence and
Herbert had no suspicion of; the care
fully-kept secret of his daughter's en
gagement came to Mr. Hamilton’s
knowledge by an unlucky chance tmdthe
—acute man of the world, as he was—
aware that to oppose it openly would be
but to increase ^he flame, said noth
ing about the discovery he had made,
but quietly set about getting rid of the
obnoxious suitor.
It was poor Helen who, all uncons
ciously, betrayed the lover. The time of
her servitude at Pallas Lodge being
ended, the girl had gone forth into the
world, to earn her bread, by the means
which Florence had so often, in her
impulsive fashion, pronounced “slavish
and miserable,"—namely, as a gover
ness. Florence being still in France
when the period of the girl's aprentice-
ship to the school expired, there was
no other resource for Helen but to ob
tain employment at once, which she did,
in Mrs. Gordon’s family; and thus it
happened that when Florence came
home to New' York, the two girls did
not meet.
They might have done so had it not
been for the i ew and stronger interest
that had sprung up in Helen's heart,
her fatal passion for James Trevo.*.
Florence had, by letter, earnestly-urged
her friend to ask a holiday from Mrs.
Gordon, and spend it in New York.,But
friendship had paled before the stronger
passion of love, and Helen could
not bjar to leave Gifttown, and the
lonely rock, where alone she could hope
to meet her lover. She knew nothing
I whatever of the family or antecedents
of the man in whose keeping she so
rashly placed happiness,. honor, even
, life itself. He told her nothing of his
. business—she was ignorant, even, from
i what place he came to visit her at Giff-
t town. When Florence wrote—entreat
ing her to come to New York for
■ awhile—Helen, t'wught only that in
I New York she would be separated from
I James Trevor. Yet her desire to see
her old companion was very great; so
j great that she even told him of her in-

vitation, and asked, shyly—“If I should
go to Miss Hamilton's house, would
you visit me while there? Florence
would welcome you, for my sake.”
It would be quite impossible, he
told her earnestly. Business prevented
him going to New York at present.
"If you remain where you are I can
run over and see you occasionally," he
said; "but if you go to New York’you
will be out of my reach. Do you love
this girl-friend better than you love me.
my darling?"
Ah, how well he knew what she
would answer! No one—not even her
dear brother-Herbert—could for one
moment rival him. She would not
willingly have passed a day without see
ing him, and to go to New York for
a week or more—to increase the dis
tance between them—she could not en
dure the thought of it; so she wrote
Florence"that the proposed holiday
was, for the present impossible; and
this was the letter that fell into Mr.
Hamilton's hands, and made mischief
for the young lovers.
A certain passage in Florric’s letter
had run thus—
“You will be doing me a positive
service if you come, dear Nell, for I
find myself—as Herbert's fiancee—in rather an embarrassinng position from
which, I .am sure, your beauty and
goodness could relieve me. There is a
gentleman, a Mr. Tremaine, with whom
papa has recently become engaged in
business transactions, who comes a
great deal to the house of late, and
seems inclined to be extremely attentive,
to my humble self. I can plainly see
that papa regards him approvingly, and
I must needs show a certain amount of
civility to one who is at once- -my
father's business ally and personal
friend. You can readily understand that
all this is far from pleasant for my dear
Herbert, and if you were only here you
could help us so much. Mr. Tremaine
is by no means in love with me. you
understand, though it is possible that he
contemplates the possibility of some
day being so—and if you, who are far
more charming in every way than I
am—were here, and would exert your
fascinations, I am sure you could easily
and quickly win him from any fancy
that he may have conceived for me. I
am not proposing to you a disagreeable
task, dear. Mr. Tremaine is young,
handsome, fascinating in manner, rich—
who knows hut he may prove to be
that ideal husband of whom we girls
talked long ago—the fairy prince who
is to set you free from toil and thrall-
dom, and make your life a dream of
love and happiness. Dear Nell, for
Herbert's sake and mine, come, and
try the experiment I”
Well would it have been for Helen
had she complied, and made the
acquaintance that Florie proposed to
her; but Fate had willed it otherwise.
"It is quite impossible for me to
come," she wrotef “much as I wish to
serve and please you, dearest Florrie. Nor can I pity your ‘embarrassing posi
tion' very much. Herbert is so well
assured of your love that he has no
need for jealousy—and, until you arc
indeed 'all his own,’ he must be content
to let the sunlight of your smiles fall
a little upon others as well as on his
fortunate and favorable self. Ah, my
dearest girl, God send -you a speedy
wedding-day! I shall certainly come to
sec you and Herbert then, in your own
happy home."Being in love, and—according to the
invariable custom of lovers—extremely
absent-minded at times, Helen sent the
letter unsealed, unclosed even;—the
consequence of which piece of careless*
ness was, that Mr. Hamilton found it
in his mail-bag one morning before
Florence came down, and, having been
somewhat troubled at her coolness to
Tremaine, and kindness to Herbert,
read it, and thus surprised her secret.
CHAPTER XVII
Plotting
Having read the letter, he quietly
and securely closed it, and laying it
beside his daughter's plate said noth
ing of his discovery to any one; but
his mind was made up; and. as far as
it was in his power to decide such
things, the doom of separation was pro
nounced upon* the unconscious lovers,
and their hopes, when seeming bright
est, were blasted. He was kinder than ever to Herbert—thereby intensifying
his daughter's affection for himself—
but he managed, quite unostentati
ously, to keep the young sailor a great
deal, with himself, and consequently
away from Florence. Neither of the
lovers could complain of this, how
ever; for, as Florence remarked:
"If papa takes such interest in you,
dear, and is so anxious to help you to
a position, it would be folly to cross
him. We shall attain to our wishes
the sooner, and prize happiness the
more because it comes indirectly from
his hands. Do everything to please
him. Herbert."
And Herbert did so—thereby seeing
much less of Florence than formerly,
tut making no complaint, because this
present deprivation appeared to be for I
their future good. t
He had been making very short •'
voyages for some time, and had been •’
able to see his beloved quite frequent- 1
!v; but at the beginning of summer • —the summer after Floric's return and '
Helen's ill-fated and secret marraige '
—suddenly there came to him that *
chance for which he sought and sigh- '
ed.—the offer of a ship.
Mr. Hamilton was his benefactor. 1
After a kind and fatherly speech
which had much truth and sincerity
in it, for the older man liked the
young well enough, except as a pros
pective son-in-law, he told him that. ;
through his own exertions and inter- ,
est with a large shipping firm, he |
had procured him the position of cap- <
tain aboard the "Saucy Jane." out
ward bound on a threc-years' cruise <
for the coast of Africa. ,
How often does it happen, to all of s
us, that the thing which—while it was j
unattainable—we most desired, seems |
to us. as soon as we possess it. unwel- j
come or unvalued? It was not quite so ,
bad as this with Herbert, for he re- |
joiced truly in gaining command of a
ship; but, truth to tell, the three years'
cruise was rather more than a lover
could be expected to have bargained
for, a!id if I may be allowed to use a
homely phrase—"took the gill off the
ginger bread,” quite considerably.
Still—objection .was impossible. In
every other particular the position
was better than he had hoped for
or dreamed, of and it was obliviously
impossible to tell Floric’s father what
the one drawback was, without also
telling him of the love affair and en
gagement, which he would be certain
to disapprove. If any signs of dismay
made themselves perceptible in the
young man’s face and manner—and they did—Mr. Hamilton was far too
wise to notice them.In the same way he ignored his
daughter's paleness and depression of
spirits, which were perceptible enough
for some days after Herbert first told
her the news. The poor girl was over
whelmed at this prospect of separa
tion, and would have insisted on his
declining the appointment, had it come
to him from any one but her father.
“Rut we must not offend papa!" she
said, as she clung, weeping, about his
neck. Herbert was of the same
opinion, and so the two poor cheated
lovers resigned themselves to the ’ in
evitable.Florence had her own separate trial
and trouble, poor child, which she
carefully kept from her lover. This
trouble arose from the now ardent
wooing of Mr. Tremaine. She could not
longer say. as she had said to Helen,
“he is not in love with me."—on the
contrary, it was evident that ' her
beauty, her indifference—perhaps her
wealth and position, had completely
fascinated Mr. Tremaine. He was a*
far as possible like her shadow, and
her father's regard for him made her
unwilling to show him any slight.
Propose to her he would not— though,
at one time, she had purposely tried
to lead him to that point, in order
to refuse him and be rid of him. But
he was too cunning for that. Aided
by Mr. Hamilton, he had read the
lovers’ secret, and was biding his time
until the coast was clear.
"Three years of absence, and almost
of silence,—for letters arc very uncer
tain from such a distance, of course
—will work wonders," said Mr. Hamil
ton cheerfully. "Be patient and quiet,
my dear Tremaine!
Mr. Tremaine sat quietly smoking,
and drumming thoughtfully on the
table with his fingers the while.
"Yes, it*» a long distance," he an
swered, musingly, "and the mails arc
uncertain as you say. A sailor has a
wife in every port, too. and he'll never
be true for three long years. Let's hope not. For it would be a pity to
sec your lovely daughter so thrown
away. I should think almost any means
justifiable to prevent it, myself. His
letters will edme here, of course, to
the house, since you say they arc
wholly unsuspicious of your having
guessed their secret—so that his letters
will noturally be delivered in your
mail—if he writes."
He looked up, and the eyes of the
two men met. Mr. Tremaine’s were
full of wicked meaning. Mr. Hamil
ton’s—for he was an honorable gentle
man—were startled, shocked but doubt
ful and speculatives, too. He had open
ed and read one letter already, why
not another? Might it not be justifi
able in a father, for the interests of
his child? He turned his eyes away
uneasily."I detest extreme measures," he
said, thoughtfully. "Everything has
gone naturally and smoothly thus far,
and Herbert will sail in a week. Still,
if I should think it necessary,' for
Florae's good, of course—yes, his let
ters will come here, to my care, but
ehaps he will not write often to. her,
are—"
Mr. Tremaine arose and stretched
himself, flinging away his cigar.
“I don’t think it would be wirt to
let him write more than once or
twice," he said, coolly, then dreamily,
and not looking at Mr. Hamilton at
all, “I shouldn’t wonder if she hears
from him only twice—these sailors are
so fickle! I hope not. I'm sure, for so
long as he writes, I Shall stand no
chance. But she won’t get more than
two letters from her lover, Hamilton.
I feel sure of it!”Mr. Hamilton sat looking before
him and answered never a word.
CHAPTER XVIII
Love-s Last Dream
‘‘All has gone smoothly and natur
ally, thus far. andHcrbert. will sail in a
week," Mr. Hamilton had remarked to
his confidential friend and fellow
conspirator. "In one week!"
The tone in w’hich he uttered the
words was not free from a certain
regret which arose less, however, from
any pain which he experienced in pars
ing with his young protegee, than
from a good-natured unwillingness to
inflict pain on others, and a certain
pity for that disappointment of Her
bert’s dearest hopes and aims, which
his own plans were to render inevi
table. The same sentiments of pity
made him—during the few days that
were yet to pass before the “Saucy
Jane" set sail—unusally kind to the
young lovers, and tolercnt of their ill-
concealed affection and regret. There
was something touching, although to
him—hard, practical man of the world
as he was—something ridiculous, too.
in the courage with which they tried
to control and hide their sorrow; and
the conf.dence with which they relied
upon, and drew comfort from, hopes
of future re-union.—hopes which he
had doomed to disappointment and
blight. There were moments w’hco the
sterner side of his nature was over
powered. and melted into pity' and
fatherly tenderness at sight of Flor-
rie's pale face and sad eyes; and it
was in such a moment that he said to
Tremaine—"Don’t worry them, my
dear fellow: the wisest plan is to keep
out of her sight for a few days, and
let them pass these parting hours in
peace. They were brought up together.

sunny, and the ladies spent
the afternoon in quiet games and social
chat. A real picnic supper was served
under the trees, which was enjoyed by
the grown-ups as well as the kiddies of
the mission band, who were present. The presence of Rev. and Mrs, Mitchell I
with their wee son and Mrs. Wright
made the afternoon extra enjoyable, as
for the past year, since their removal.

had been a rest as well as a pleasurable
picnic

We were glad to welcome a large
number of visitors last Sunday, partic
ularly at the morning service, when
the attendadnee was remarkable for
an August Sundav, at the height of the
holiday season. In the morning, Miss
Margaret Ellis sang "Some Day the
Silver Cord Will Break." very effec
tively, and in the evening the Misses
Scott gave a splendid rendering of "Whispering Hope." with Hawaiin
guitars. Mr. Lewis Sinden made an
efficient organist in the absence of Miss
Trestain. who is away on her holidays.
We hope the members of the congre

guests to church.
The Rev. and Mrs. R. Nelson Gould,
of Grace United church. St. Thomas,
were visitors at our evening service last
Sunday.
Attractive new electric fixtures have
added much to the appearance of some
of the basement rooms. It goes with
out saying that the extensive renova

through the enterprise and generosity
of our Ladies' Aid Society.

missed in many departments of our

Mr. Ward was going east when the

the three were injured.

HYMN
-As pants the hart for cooling streams.
When heated by the chase.
So longs my soul, O God. for Thee,
And Thy refeshing grace."
PRAYER
“O God. who giveth us all things
richly to enjoy, and hast so bounti
fully provided for our every need, we
again seek the bcstowcl of Thy Divine
favour. We arc glad that we can never ask too much of Thee, though
we often ask too little, and so miss the
full gift of Thy grace. Pity our spirit
ual poverty this day. and make us rich
in all things pertaining to godliness
and virture. Amen.
SCRIPTURE READING
Gen. 21:8-21.
MEDITATION
Gen. 2I:19:“Awd God opened her
eyes and she saw a well of water.
"Hagar was cast off by man. but she
was not forsaken by God. The pro
mise is: "When thy father and thy
mother forsake thee, then the Lord
wil take thee up." Her experienc also
demonstrated the truth that man s
extremity is God's opportunity/ She
had reached the end of her own resour
ces, and then God's resources became
available. If you have explored every
avenue of help in vain, try God. and
you will find that He will never fail
you. That w-cll in the desert was there
all the time, yet Hager’s eye* were
so blinded by despair,.and discourage
ment, and tears, that she failed to sec
it until God had open his eyes. How
often this it true in human life to day.
We wander in the deserts of bereave
ment. and doubt, and sin, and never
see the well of God which He has
provided for our need. Such w'clls as
prayer, and His precious promises, and
salvation through Jesus Christ, are at
our very elbow*, yet* we fail to see
them. Like Elijah under the Juniper
tree, and the servant of Elisha in
Dothan, we need our eyes opened to
see the seven thousand who have
never bowed the knee to Baal, and to
tec the hosts of Heaven encamj>cd
around aliout us upon the hills. Like
the woman of Samaria, we require
our eye* opened to see in Jesus Christ
the well of Living Water. May we pray
that our eyes may be opened jo sec
God’s well* so free tto all.

I come to cast myself on Thee:
Thou art my Rest."
were called
to testify, among whom was Traffic
Officer Thomas Hudson, who investi
gated the accident. He told the jury
that the right front headlight of one
car was defective and glaring, while
the left light was in perfect condition.
John Ward, the driver of the smaller
car, who extricated the occupants of
the other car from the wreck, claimed
that his car was going at the rate of
IS to 20 miles per hour at the time of
the 'crash. Mr. Heard made a volun
tary statement as to the speed of his
car and stated that it was traveling
bet wen 20 and 25 miles per hour. The
Heard car, however, traveled 89 feet
after the crash with the front wheel
off. according to evidence.
Dr. Wildfang, of Tillsonburg. gave
evidence as to the extent of the in
juries received by Healy, which con
sisted of fracture to the base of the
skull and neck and chest badly crash
ed. Ernest Pressey, the first on the
scene of the accident, gave his version
of the crash, while N. Tunks. who was
in the car driven by Heard, gave a vol
untary statement.
The inquest was called by Dr. Colin
Sinclair, of Aylmer, and Crown Attor
ney Angus McCrimmon conducted the
questioning. The jury was composed
of J. Holtby. Walter Stewart. M.
Brown. F. Middleton. Verne Dennis.
Robert Firby. Charles Taylor and
Bert. Green.
The inquest was held at the resi
dence of county Constable Turnbull,
a short distance from the scene of

It is quite certain that the cost of
finding this additional supply and
bringing it to the pumphouse will be
an expensive proceeding and I am not
prepared or able to make even an ap
proximate guess at what it will cost
the town to do this. I can. however,
state that the additional supply from
Vienna Wodds will require a new 10
in. intake pipe from the Woods to the
pumphouse as the present one has not
capacity for more water than it is carrying now.
I believe that the Waterworks Com
pany has been criticised for wishing
to .increase the waler rate, but I think
the criticism is due to a misconcep
tion of the facts. Briefly the facts
are these:
From 1895 to the present date the
net revenue from the Waterworks
Company has only permitted the pay
ment of two small cash dividends to
its shareholders. It is true that the
gross receipts have been very gradu
ally increasing. On the other hand a

taining the system, laying down new
and larger maim, putting in services
from mains to the street line, building
a very much needed pumphouse and
reservoir, installing a new and modern
pump with sufficient opacity tq take
care of abnormal demand during the
dry season, developing a new source
of supply from Vienna Wood* and ad
ding very greatly to the supply by
expensive operation* on Annandale
Farm, have cost more than the re
ceipts from the taker* of water have
supplied. The result is that while we
have enlarged the system and in a
measure perfected the supply and
pumping end of the system, we
find ourselves in debt and writh no
money to relay main* that have become
too small or worn out. In order, to
meet the requirements of the citizen*
and at the same time pay our share
holders something upon the money
advanced to the company for the in
stallation and maintenance of the sys
tem, it has become necessary to ask
for higher rate*.There is no question but that the
town will have to face the same diffi
culties we have had to face. They will
be compelled to do the same thing* that
we have planned to do and in addition
they, will start out with a handicap
of having to provide a yearly pay
ment or sum of approximately $8,000
for principal and sinking fund to pay
for this system, and in addition they
will have to find a new source of water
and finance the operations of getting
it to the pumphome. From the point
of view of The E. D. Tillson Estate.
Limited, as a large taxpayer, we see
that we and all other taxpayer* will
be obliged to pay a much larger
amount of taxes if the town decide*
to purchase the Waterworks System
than we would have to do if the
Waterworks System was carried on as
a private enterprise a* heretofore. —
We have been asked where the public
will stand provided the vote for the
By-law is not ratified on the 10th of
September and whether we could not
increase the water rate* to a prohibi
tive figure. My answer to that is that
we arc not permitted by the agree
ment dated June 1895 between the
corporation and the Waterworks
Compaip-. to increase our rate* beyond
7% on our bona fide paid up capital
stock. The citizen* are protected by
that agreement. The rate* arc also
subject to a revision every five year*
if so desired by either the Corporation
or the Company.
Should the ratepayer* refuse to ratify
the proposed By-law it is the inten
tion of the Waterworks Company,
through the additional revenue received
by an advance of rates, to replace a
number of the smaller mains by larger
ones: to provide a greater supplv of
water than we now have; to improve
the pressure in the higher parts of the
town and generally to use the money
obtained from the increased rates in
the betterment of the system We
point thi* out because irrespective of
the fact whether the system i* carried
on by the Waterworks Company,
u* by the town, this work will have to
be done, and if not by the Water
works company then by the town and
the figure* given below are based
only on actual needs as we know them.
The Mayor stated at a public meet
ing some months ago that the town
did not expect to have to increase
the water rates more than to a limit
ed extent. We do not agree with thi*.
The town will be compelled to raise
sufficient revenue either by increase
of water rates or by taxes on property
or by loans, to purchase the system,
improve it. extend it and carry it on

and there is no possiblity of miracle*
being performed by the Finance
Committc of the Town Council to
avoid thi* expenditure.
I will give you below a summary—
first of what moneys must be ex
pended in purchasing and maintaining
this system as it is at the present
time. Secondly, what renewals and re
placements will be necessary-within a
period of five years and the estimated
cost of these. Thirdly,, the extensions
of the system, which may be deferred
for a while but ultimately mutt be
made.
I may possibly be criticised on my
estimate of the cost of clerical work
and superintendence and so forth. I
do not pretend to say what salaries
he town will have to pay for clerical
teip but I feel certain that the town
will be unable to procure a first-class
Accountant or Superintendent without
>aying a very substantial remuneration
and 1 thoroughly believe that it will cost
the town a great deal more foe the
mechanical end of the work thin it
does the Waterworks Company owing
to the much greater experience of
the company in operating the"system.
I have just one further point which
would like to make and that is that
the shareholder* of the Waterwork*
Company, of which I am one, are en
tirely indifferent as to the result of the
vote on the proposed By-law. As they
see it they will neither lose nor gain
>y the result, and in consideration of
the fact I am able in thi* letter to
five, as 1 believe, a thoroughly un-
•iased opinion as to the effect of the
>ropo*c<l purchase on the ratefiaycr*
at large.

............ the
following observation on the proposed
acquisition of the Tillsonburg Water
works :
We have been engaged in designing
and building waterworks for about
forty years, and. having made numer
ous appraisals of public utilities, can
fairly claim to be familiar with their
cost. After making careful investiga
tions on the ground and making an
appraisal we are of the opinion that the
price agreed upon, namely $100,000 for
the acquisition of the above work*, is
a fair one.
We have just completed the acquisi
tion of five small water syndicates, and
the design and construction of a com
plete waterworks system at Blenheim
(poulation about I M») at a cost of
about 385.000 to which must be added
a new well costing about $15,000, mak
ing a total of about $100,000.Tillsonburg Waterworks can be ac
quired for $100,000 to which for fair
comparison, must be added the cost of the fire main* and pump*, say $25,000.
making a total of about $125,000 for a
population of 3x00.
Whilst the cost to the ratepayers is
an advantageous one. it* acquisition is
important because each municipality
should own and manage it* own water
works system, and Tillsonburg will be conforming to a recognized principle if
the ratepayer* vote favorably.
The mayor and members of the town
council are to be commended for the
spirit of true civic enteri’rise with
which they embarked on the acquisition
of the waterworks, and we have every
hope the ratepayers will endorse their
action.A* a result of a long experience on
municipal undertakings we strongly
recommend a favorable endorsation of
the bylaw for the acquisition of the
Tillsonburg Waterworks.
Yours very truly.

Edison May Be
In Vienna Today
Vienna. Ont.. August IS—Thomas
A. Edison, greatest inventor of the
age is expected to arrive here to-mor
row morning to join the Vienna’s old
home week celebration. Mr. Edison, it
was slated to-night, is expected to
come from hi* estate in New Jersey by
train and motor It was not known
definitcl at what hour he would ar
rive, hut it was believed it would be
before noon..
The man whose genius has sup
plied mankind with many of the mod
em conveniences and comfort enjoy
ed today will find a village in gala at
tire and «omc 5,000 persons waiting to
greet him and to pay honor to one
who ha* won international fame.
There ha* been no elaborate program
arranged. Mr. Edison will pay an in
formal visit to see some of hi* old-
time friends and to revisit scenes
where he spent many a happy chil-
hood hour. It was not the inventor's
desire that anything be done on the
grand scale. He wished that all be
simple and homelike. His wishes
have been regarded in this respect.
It is understood that while in Vienna
Mr. Edison will be the guest of Mr.
and Mr*. Coombe. who reside in the
old house where Mr. Edison lived as
a boy. Mks. Combe is a relative of
the inventor, her maiden name being

Picnic Postponed
The annual picnic of the Western
Ontario Conservative Association,
which was to have been held on Sat
urday. August 25, in conjunction with
the Essex and Kent County associa
tion* al Rcauinc Park, Sl Clair Beach,
has been postponed.
Conflicting date*, which have been
arranged for Hon. R. B. Bennett by
ihe Maritime Province* committee in
New Brunswick, made it impossible for
him to reach Reaume Park in time on
August 25.
As the associations were particularly
anxious to have Mr. Bennett present
and to do honor to the new. federal
leader it was felt the only thing to do
under the circumstances was to postpone the affair. If Mr. Bennett can
still arrange to be present early in Sep
tember the event will still be held, even
if a little late in the scaioo.
