McPherson is not forgotten. His lithograph can be recognized by all his friends in' Luck - now who have seen it, It is something to John D's credit that his style of, shot putting is acknowledged the best in vogue.

We have always understood it was contrary to law to send such circulars through the mails, and in fact only a few weeks ago we received a notice from the Postma..eter General to the effect that all newspapers con- taining advertisements of lotteries and games of chance were prohibited from passing , through Her Majesty's mail. Sir's John Thompson's new criminal code makes the buyer of a lottery ticket .liable to a fine •of $20 for each offense, and limits the prizes at church raffles to the value of $50. Green Goods Men Captured One of the several "green : goods" gangs in New York which 'have been flooding this section of the country with circulars offering counterfeit money for sale has just been broken up by the New,York police, whb. made a raid oil their head quarters several evenings ago, and found thousands of circulars and instructions to "agents" which were scattered broadcast through the States and Canada. . A memorandum book dis- covered showed that this particular firm had made profits of it 1650 during April for its proprietors. Residents of Lucknow : who received circulars were puzzled to understand how their names and addresses were obtained by the New York crooks: The fact that copies of the latest reference books issued by_Bradstreet's and R. G. Dunn & Cth's mercantile agencies, were found in the room, will , clear up the mystery. Sad' Affliction It is with the deepest feelingsof regret we are called upon this week to chronicle the death of Mrs. Cameron. wife of Mr. R. D. Cameron,, merchant of the firm of Cameron, Murdock & Co. second daughter of Mr. Wm. Murdock, of Ashfield, which took place at the family residence, Have- lock street on Tuesday morning last: De eased who was in her 32nd year belng ill only a few, days, the result of confinement, and when the sad and sudden news spread through the village that she had passed away, it caused the most profound "sorrow and regret, as she was a lady greatly esteemed and much loved by all her friends and acquaintances. Mrs. Cam- eron was a devout christian and a member of the Presbyterian church, and will be greatly missed by that body. The heartfelt sympathy of the whole community is extended, to Mr. Cameron and his• dui little girls in their great bereavement in the loss of a loving and affectionate wife and devoted n:other. The funeral which took place at 10.30 a. m.. on Thurs- day was largely attended, showing the high respect in which the deceased was hell. All the places of business were closed for an hour during the funeral services. ,s A particularly nice . lot of black worsteds and black and fancy pantings.

A Good Suggestion A writer in the Municipal World urges that an effort should be made to secure the passing of an act where- by municipal clerks will receive a salary in proportion to the number of names on the assessment roll. He suggests that up to 150 names the clerk should receive 50 cents per name and all over that number 10 cents per name, in addition to the extra fees for the registrtition of births, voter's list, court of revision etc. Evidently of all municipal officers the clerk, with his ever increasing dirties' receives the lowest remuneration.
