A prohibitory law aimed against the trada in intoxicating beverages, and fairly enforced, can accomplish someâ€" thing, in the jadgment of Hon. Geo. E. Foster. This is his summary : Warsrroo Axp THE FresitEt.â€"The water in the creek running through Waterloo which is the outlet of Silver Lake, was on Sunday, bigher than it has been for many years, and pretty nearly everybody living along the banks of the creek reported flsoded cellars up to the depths of a couple of feet. Outâ€" side of this very little damage was done. The waste water gates on Silver Lake were open all day and millions of galâ€" lons of water poured out into the distilâ€" lery creek. At both Erb, King and Queen streets the water had attained such an abnormal height as to reach the _ bridges _ during the day. Luckily no flaating ice came down with the wator, otherwise there might have been & different story to relate. The wind blew a terrific gale nearly all day, which greatly added to the fury of the waters. Kreutziger‘s lumber yards,the low lying flats around the gas factory and the flats on Seagram‘s farm were all flooded. Mrs. Ercly, whose cellar was flsoded, anticipated a spring freshet and luckily removed every thing from her cellar flaors a couple of days previous. The water began to subside towards evening, the high wind also abating considerably, and by Monday morning the water had receded to its normal depth. The friends of Mr. Wm. Hendry, the veteran Manager of the Ontario Life Assurance Co., will be g‘ad to learn that he is slowly recovering from the effects of a severe fall on the slippery pavements some time ago.

From & small beâ€" gioning their business bas grown to farge proportions,. _ Originally their business was exclusively flour and faed, but success attended their cfforts to such & degree as to warrant the adâ€" dition of aâ€" line of groceries about a year ago, and from that they have climbed steadily up the ladder until now, in their new premises, they have one of the neatest and best stocked grocories in town. They aro sole dcalers in many lines of high grade flours, including buckwheat and whole wheat flour. They also bandle Pearâ€" lets‘s breakfast food, manufactured out of pure Manitoba wheat, which has proved itself the peer of all breakfast toods now bsing sold. The fact that Code & Hilliard buy nothing but the choicest grade of goods and sall them at reasonable profits is a sufficient re commerdation for the public. All goods delivered promptily.

Prohibition of Trade. Press SupT ‘Tie said that the authorities sre now after the amsteur scalps of Kochler and Hendry. Notes The Listowel team clearly showed that there was not a spark of the true sportsmen in them when they rushed off the ice at the conclusion of the game yelling "protest! protest !" We bave seen aspiring champions who could take their medicine a little more gracefully. _ Babies of this sort should be kept closely tied to their mothers‘ apron strings, insterd of being allowed to wander so far from home. Some of us would like to know where all the money the O.H.Aâ€" raked in at the Championship gamos here has gone to. No beam in the history of the 0. H.A. ever pubt up a nobler or a cleaner fight for the championship and our boys earned their laurels after & hard and honorable fight, The citizens of Waterloo are ab a loss how to interpret this last ruling of the O. H. A. which deprived them of the well meritedZchampionship. Who are President Martin and Secretary Beaton that they should thus be empowered to throw championships around at their own sweet will? The citizens of Watâ€" erloo aroe indignant to thiak that the Provincial championship should be unâ€" ceremoniously _ snatched from their team aud handed it over to a team like that of Listowelâ€"z2 team that bas no liconss whatever to play hockey in the year 1898 and that won the final game from Waubeshene by a mere fluke. Atb the final game here a week ago Saturâ€" day night they were entirely oubplayed by the local team at every stage of the game and any disinterested spectator would readily admit that the Waterloo team could have whitewashed their opponents without any serious inconâ€" venience to themselves had they been so disposed. Why the testimony of Galloway of Galt should have been considered more reliable than that of balf a dozon aftiâ€" davits presented by Forrester, we are at a loss to understand. Charge of Protessionalism Against Forrester is Sustained and Listowel are now Champions.â€" The 0. H. A. ‘did the Trick.‘ Waâ€" terloo People Indignant. WATERLOO ROBBED OF THE CHAMPIONSHIP. Monday‘s Mail and Empire containâ€" ed the following : _ Ages from 5 to 15 years to come to our store immediately and take pick and choice of any of our Tweed, Cheviot, Serge and Fancy Worsteds. ; "After a patient hearing the subâ€" committee of the Ontario Hockey Association decided Saturday afternoon that the evidence in support of the charge made by Listowel that Forresâ€" ter, the Waterloo player, was a proâ€" feesional justified the committee in disâ€" qualifying Forrester, and this was done. President Martin and Secreâ€" tary Bsaton were ths members of the subâ€"committee who heard the case. As a result of Forrester‘s disqualifiâ€" cation, Waterloo, by opsration of the 0. H. A. rules, losss its membership and Listowel becomes intermediate champions. Ib was reported that Waterloo inâ€" tends to prefer a charge of professionalâ€" ism against oneof the Listowel players, but no confirmation of the report could be got." Boy‘s Three Piece Suits Listowel was represented by J .Grayâ€" son Smitbh, of. Watson, Smoke and Masten ; and Waterloo by Mr. J. Franks, of Barwick, Aylesworth and Franks. Joe Seagram, of the Waterâ€" loo club, was also present and addressâ€" ed the committee. In addition to the affidavits already put in, Listowel submitted one from Galloway, a professional skater,of Galt, Ont., who declared that he had skated against ‘Grindy‘ Forrester, as well as his brother Joe, for cash prizes. The brothers were unlike in appearance, and be was positive he had not got them mixed up. The defence presented a number of affidavits. They were from the Forrâ€" ester boys, and residents of Fergus.

All the horses have silky, glossy conts, and are as sleek and nice as any wellâ€" fed and wellâ€"tended horses can look. The stable boys are nearly always basy around the stables. There is a great deal of work to be done. Each horse has to be cleaned and brushed several times a day, and also rubbed down when they come in from their exercise.

The time for the May meeting of the Ontario Jockey Club is fast approachâ€" ing, and, as a result, attention is being directed to the big Seagram stables at Waterloo from all corners of the Domâ€" inion. These stables sre owned by Mr. J. E. Seagram, North Waterloo‘s popular M. P. Duaring the past week there have been representatives of numerous newspapers in town, visiting the stables, and all are loud in theoir praises of the fine condition of the large string of horses to be put on the tracks the coming season, by the genial and efficient trainer, Mr. Oharlie Boyle. THE SEAGRAM STRING. Mr. Seagram will take nearly double the number of horses along with him to the race meets this year as he did last year. _ Fiftyâ€"four or 55 will be the number. _ The string will leave the Waterloo stables about the first week in April, providing the weather does not prove & disappointment, for Little York, where they will train for the Ontario Jockey C‘ub races in Toronto, in May. Trainer Boyle says he would like to get away as quickly as possible for there is not much room here for training. ‘There is a small track in one of the fields belonging to the farm, which is sometimes used to train the horses, but with weather like this the track is too soft and cannot be utilized. Instead, the horses are practised each day in the big paddock or barn yard. This paddock is like an ordinary farm yard, only larger, carpeted thickly with straw. _ The thirty or more stable boys are busy all day riding the horses around the paddock. Each horse gets from an bour to an hour and a half day exercise in the paddock, rain or shine, snow or hail. The horses themâ€" selves seem to like ib, ab least the way they kick and scamper when they get out leads one to think so. 4 Waterloo. _ The following list gives, in order of merit, the names of the pupils that have passed the recent review examination.
