sd from tlms to Urns until nearly every corner of the residential district Is served. Ths total cost of ths waterworks waa 1115.000. and the debt on them Is or a little over. Aside from this ths principal assets of the village are firs hall and equipment, and town hall. $4,500.

Besides ths waterworks the debt of the villas is less than 124.000. I Ths schools of ths village are excellent, the public school, an l-room building, having certiflcato as tha best In Csrlrton county, as well for teaching results as equipment. But tela school Is overcrowded and villagers look forward to a new school to be built by ths Ottawa board In tha west end. which will relieve the pro-sent building as well as the congestion In public schools In the esstern psrt of ths city. Roman Catholics are served by two 4 -room schools, ons of them quite new.

Churches and Hotels. By a strange turn all the churches In Hintonburg will go Into Dalhousls ward, being all south of the Richmond road. Tha same turn puts the two hotels of the village Into Victoria ward. There Is ons Romsn Catholic church, 8t. Francis, and this Is French.

English-speaking Catholics worship at St. Mary's church. Bays-water. Thera are also Anglican. Presbyterian and Msthodlst churches.

While a drainage system Is the treat advantage Hintonburg will (sin from oorolng Into ths city, there srs several others In addition to those mentioned above. There will probably be a reduction In Inauranc ratss; thsr will be free mall delivery and there will be cheaper telephones. Heretofore villagers have hsd to psy IM to for private 'phones, which they should now get for Its, while business telephones will be reduced from too to $44. About ths only affect annexation will hav on ths business life of the village will be ths Introduction of the early closing by-haws. Heretofore shops could keep open as Ions as their own.

Brave Sailors Managed to Hake Fast a Cable to the Shore. Many Left on a Barren Island Without Fpod or Water. I Halifax, N.8., Dec. The annals at the sea oontstn few stories of more remarkable escapes from death than thst to bo recorded of the Canadian Pacific Steamship Mount Temple, which tiundsy night struck on Iron Hound Island. St the mouth of La Havre River, and which will he a total loss.

The steamship had 4U0 pus-sengiTs and. a crew of men. but. though In awful peril for meny hours. snd subject to the extremity of exposure and prlvsllon for many hours more, nut one perished.

Their lives wer saved, but by only a hair's bresdlh. The Mount Temple wss bound from Antwerp to Bt. John. Oft this coast last night a terrific southeast snowstorm raged. It caught the Mount Temple at Its height, when, st three o'clock this morning, the CRK.

liner was off La Havre Klver. sbout aixly mllts west of this port. The snow was so thick thst It was Impossible to see half length ahead. Captain Boolh- by. who was In command of the Mount Temple made the land at Klngsburg, two miles west of Iron Bound.

He did not know Just where he was. but he ssw that he had no business there. He knew he must bo many miles off his course. At once the ship was turned. The blinding snow becoming yet thicker as the Mount Temple got round, she struck again and remained hard and fast.

As the steamship grounded, tremendous sea washed over her decks, smashing the boats and leaving onl half of them fit for service. But no boat could havs lived In thst ses any- way. Ouns were tired snd rockets dls-rherged. in the hope of attracting attention and getting auccor from the shore. They were heard on the land but nothing could be done, either ashore or on board, and a long wait began till daylight.

Then the preclpl-tlous banks of land worn seen not more than 5 feet away. The captain made It out to be Iron Bound, an Island at the mouth of Ia Havre, on which only two fitmlltes live, and they about three-quarters of a mile from the wreck.
