Interesting Figurers • In the County of Bruce there were born last year 710 males and 661fea- :niitA-2es: Of- twins there were three pairs, two of boys and one of girls. The deaths during the year were males 251, feamales 1278. August was the most fatal Month of the year, the deaths being that month 35, In mar - ria es 1 II • year was 406. The 'Presbyterians led the list on Marrying with a total of 133 males, the Methodists coming next with 126. January was the heaviest marrying month, the number being 51. He was Insane ' • On Thursday -last a young man named Peter McDougall came to the village and put-up at. Moore,'s Hotel. He had not been there long, however, before the inmates of the house notic- ed that he acted in a strange manner, and when shown to his room in the evening, the 'whole. • household. were startled by his cries of fear that. some onewas going to murder him. Con. stable McLeod was. sent for. and the young man was brought ,before the Reeve. He saidhe had walked from Kincardine, and was looking for work in the WoollEn Mills, and when asked. if. he had any friends, he replied that he had worked in Elora and Galt, and that his brother had been murdered near Alminte, Lanark County and that they were going to. murder hint too. As he was evidently insane, the con- stable-avas instructed ,to take him to the hotel and look after him until sbtnething could be 'heard from his friends. It has since been learned by telephone from Mr. McKay, of Galt, and Mr. Bain, of. Elora, that McDoug- all is a very respectable young man and well connected; but that some six years ago he was thrown from a buggy and his skull fractured, from the effects of which his mind has become deranged. The poor fellow fully realizes his sad condition, and at times talkes and converses quite intelligently; butas the' shades of night approaches he appears to lose all control of him- self, and trembles from., head to foot, and pleads not to be left alone. • It is indeed a sad ease, anct as we under- stand he tried to commit suicide last fall by drowning; he was committed by Magistrates Lawerance and the Reeve to Walkerton gaol to await the arrival of his friends. He 'should be' sent tothe asylum. Solid Worth vs. Good Looks A neighboring photograliper tells a story of a yenng man who ca -me into the studio one day and asked nervous- ly if he might have a little conversa- tion with him. The visitor was painfully ugly, and after some awkward blushing and indefinite illusions, he asked if he supposed he had among his samples a picture of a young man who looked like him, but was,better looking. "'What do you mean., young man 9" asked the photographer. ' Well," replied he—making a n•'elean east of it -L-" amjust engagoil tc) be married. The yonnlady lis o?, out. West.

Another lady of high pos- ition met her at dinner one day, and was surprised to see- that she took no wine, and at length aske‘Did you not •set out wine when you entertain the Governor General 9" " Never," was the prompt reply. "Bit did you not feel that must apologize 9" " Cer- tainly not ; wine is not a natural bev- erage, and so should rather come in wer and, that example led the other , high lady to become . a total abstainer also. • Foresters' Concert The entertainment given in the town hall on Thursday evening last by the members of Court Sherwood, Can- adian Order of Foresters, in aid of the poor of tile, village, • was not so largely attended as the •merits of the enter- tainment deserved or the laudible objects for which the concert was given, shouid receive.
