SOME SPECIAL ATTRACTIONS | Scott & Bowne, Toronto, Ont. . 19â€"4 PRINCE IS Received Big Reception at Toronto; Was Wildly Acclaimed. Toronto, Aug. 27.â€" It is a sign of the times as well as an indication of the democratic â€" spirit of Edward, Prince of Wales, that British royalty has mingled with the people of: all classes never before so intimately as did the heir to the throne toâ€"day, the last day of his present visit to the City of Toronto. That this was a fact is the testimony of the British correspondents here with the prince. They declare that the reception given him toâ€"day at the grounds of the Canadian National Ex hibition and in the 24â€"mile triampbal drive through the streets of Toronto, was unparalleled among the demonâ€" strations of welcome and loyalty to an heir to the throne. Plays Golf. The prince had a quiet . morning with a little golf at _ the Lambton links, playing a twoâ€"some with Capâ€" ‘mln Leight. the score of which was not given out, followed by the acâ€" ceptance of the degree of barrister at Osgoode Hall and luncheon with the judiciary and â€" benchers â€" of. Ontario. Within oneâ€"half _ hour later he was transported â€" into a pandemonium .. which, according to those accompanyâ€" ing him. was the biggest triumph to date of his young life. The program said he was to review the Great War Veterans, who were gathered 20,000 or 30,000 strong before the grand stand. _ What he actually did was to mount his charger and seek to make his way through the thousands . of veterans who closed about him. _ An escort to the Royal Canadian Dragâ€" cons and platoons of mounted police were of no avail. He finally reached a platform, where he was lifted off the horse and pulled up to his feet away from the crowd, which was well on the way to goodâ€"naturedly mobbing him in their enthusjasm and joy . of wreeting. After many efforts the noise of tens of thousands of cheering voices was stopped sufficiently for the prince to make his voice heard to those immeâ€" diately around him. | He had no notes but apparently spoke extemporaneousâ€" ly, and certainly from the heart, as he told how glad he was to meet his comrades of those fighting months in Flanders. j Presents War Medals Then followed the presentation of some 300 medais to war heroes. This feature could be only partially car ried out owing to the crowds. . The authorities and the aides were comâ€" pelled to smuggle (the prince out of the grounds to attend other engageâ€" ments. When his royal highness had heen spirited outside the gate of the grand stand enclosure he entered a private car some distance away from the gate. the crowd scarcely missed him till he got away. The car bear ing the roval stafdard had been left at a point half a mile outside _ the exhibition grounds and he changed to it there. Then for a mile or two the prince. with an aide or two, speeded through the streets so swiftly that he was without the protection of his deâ€" tectives for some distance, they beâ€" ing unable to catch up.

At the stock yards. pork sold from $1.2%5 to $2 lower than Wednesday a drop of more than $3 per 100 pounds since Tuesday. There were 18,000 hogs unsold in the pens toâ€" night. Cattle and sheep also fell to new low levels. The average for the day on pork was $17.70 per â€"100 pounds, a figure $1.45 lower than Weduesday‘s trading and $5 under the July 31 record high price. /: Retail stores did not show appreâ€" clably lower prices, but experts preâ€" dicted that they would reduce their charges as the wholesale food costs reached the lower figures expected before the end of the week. The cause of the second day drop was the refusal of the packers to buy on the high and loaded . market, while housewives were using meat so sparingly that their cooling rooms were jammed. The cattle and sheep markets were paralyzed. The packers, with thouâ€" sands _ of pounds of â€" high priced meats, were not indlingd to start a downfall of retail prices by buying in at the new low rate.

Stacy, a retired artist of Galt, Ont., who was found in his home here. with bullet wounds in his head and breast and a pistol in his hand, conâ€" | vinced the police toâ€"day that he was murderéd by a robber. Miss Adeline La Favorite niece of the dead man, arranged early this morning for a return trip to Galt, but on the request of the district attorney‘s office she changed her plans, and deâ€" cided to remain here. ‘ Leaves For Ontarie. A Pinkerton detective, in company with a local inspector, left for Galt toâ€" night, some part of their investigation leading them to the Ontario city. A statement issued by the district attorney‘s office late this \ afternoon said: "There is no question but what Mr. Stacy was murdered, and by some one other than a supposed robber. Perâ€" sonally, I believe the foundation for the crime was laid back at his former hame in Galt. Time and investigaâ€" tion will, however, tell." Chief Gorman, of Galt, states that he knows of no such a man as Stacy having lived in Galt. He thought, perâ€" haps, he came from Guelph or vicinity. A silver service, wrapped in a tableâ€" cloth and resting on the table under which the aged artist‘s body was found indicated that he had surprised a thief. The Only Clue. Mrs. William Stacy, wife of the murâ€" dered man, Mrs. Elcka Roberts, houseâ€" keeper, and Miss Eugenia Lafavourite, At first it was believed that Stacy had committed suicide, but circumâ€" stnnce; surrounding the affair quickly led the police to discard this theory. ‘The pistol, a 22 calibre weapon, was found in his left hand, whereas Stacy was right handed. Stacy could not have inflicted the wounds he received with a pistol held in his left hand. Miss Lafavourite is engaged to Anâ€" drew A. Benoit, a prominent Windsor Ont., merchant, who is on his way here.

Among these it is pointed out that consumers who purâ€" chase in small quantities do not get the proper weight. because dealers, instead of weighing them, sell by measure. Investigations show that a peck measure of potatoes is from three to five pounds, and the Chief Inspector urges that every City Counâ€" Ad ly an acid imitation. _ _ m‘&lfil Tablets of Aspirin" are now made in Canada by a Canadian Company.
