It's nice to be a hero and wear a tine uniform and accumulate cheap feminine kisses, malaria and glory, but we don't cure for any of Uncle Sam's hero diet. The morn conclusive evidence has been furnished thet not only were those who eagerly 'rushed to volunteer to shoot Spaniards fed on chuck beef from which the extract had been taken, but the refuse had not been .canned until it swarmed with maggots and smelled like a com- pound of bisulphide of carbon and excited skunk. 11•111=MMIll In Committee of the Legislature the other day, Mr. Barber, the paper manufacturer herrn Halton, one of the able.business men of the House, point- ed out that municipal bonusea were largely responsible for the collapse of the woollen industry some years ago, and that if munNoalities were permit- ted to bonus pork -packing establish- ments, as it was clear there was now a tendency to do, the whole pork -pack- ing industry of the Province would be demoralized in a few years. It was already in a critical condition., bocusing would. bring over competi- tion and ruin. The coinbiestion has decided to ad- _ vance the price of cottons, en .ac. count of an advance in the cost of the raw material, though it it stated that the mills have plenty of raw cotton in stock for the season's op- erations, and' that they have orders booked to keep them busy for a con- siderable period. It in, an excellent time for Parliament to say "duties down." Then consumers can purchase outside of the combination, if corn- binatien prices do not suit In an open market, somebody, somewhere, will be glad to sell at an ordinary profit on what the raw 'material used actually cost. . The Postmaster -General's report shows that the businees of the Depart- ment is inreasing. The estimated number of letters sent through the pot-otlice during the year ended last June exceeds that of the previous year by 11,145,000, the total number of 1898 being 134,975,000. Ten years ago the number of letters sent through the mails in Canaas, was 80,200,000. In addition to letters handled last year, there were 28,153,000 post- cards, 3,534,500 registered letters, 5,673,000 free letters, 26,595,000 newspapers and periodicals, 3,372,000 packages of printers' copy, photo- graphs, etc, 1,813,000 packets ef fifth -class matter, 316,000 parcels by parcel post, and 33,000 packets for the United Kingdon and other coun- tries. The gross revenue of the De- partment weed 84,636,649. It is very satisfactory to read that Great Britain and Frauce came to an agreement last week and parcelled out the last portion of 'Africa still open to "grabbers."

MARCH 31st 1899. ed disposes of hundreds of thousands of square miles, leaving only four recognized independent States through- out the continent—Morocco, Abyssin- ia, Liberia and the Orange Free State. When North America was virgin ter- ritory, Britain and France neglected the little preliminary of "parcelling out" the continent, and the result was that Half Century of Conflict so graphically described by Parkman. Village and Vicinity g(wo. The Game Law The bill toamend the Ontario Game Protection Act was read a second time. Mr. Gibson, the mover, said that as long as the hounding of deer was allowed, it was not expedient to prohibit shooting in the water.

A petition is being circulated among the section men on the Grand Trunk, aaking for an increase in wages. It will be presented to General Superin- tendent facGuigan at a later date, and the men feet that the request will be granted. Section men on the G. T. R. at present only get el a day, while on the C. P. R. the wen get Chicken Thieves Mr. Editor—Allow me space in yoer paper this week to speak a few words about stealing fowls. Two young men came to the premises of Mr. Alex. Hackett, of Ashfield, on Thursday night and stole several fuwls. As they are well-known, and as this thing has been carried on all last suAul mer and fall, I hereby worn them that Unless the fowls are returned at once, the guilty parties will be prosecuted.—Cost. • , Poi* Aching In various towns throughout On- tario the pork packing industry is receiving a boom' and a number of these in,dustries are being started this Spriag. Is not Lucknoiw a good place for one of them? Larke numbers of hogs are shipped away from here which might just as well .be utilized for a local industry, and if • Lucknow capitalists would give the matter a little study they might concludethat money thus invested would bring goad profits. Inspector Campbell's Visit Mr. A. Campbell, I. P. S., gave 118 his usual call on Wednesday and Thursday of last week, and pronounced our school as being in. a prosperous condition. The grading of the rooms might beimproved to some extent, but before such improvement can be made it will be necessary to engage an extra teacher making five in all. Parents will do well to renrember that all 'children under the ago of sixteen are reqeired by law to attend school • certain number of days dur- ing each term, unless they have a perms -pea situation. A word to the wise ill sufficient. • Lake Huroze.Frosan pond Kfeper John D. •Personal of the Thunder Bay Island station, writes as follows, under date of March '25 : "People are asking Me over the line when I think navigation will open. I arda little tni:;.ed on that subject just at present myself. A year ago the 21st of March I went to Alpena in a sail boat; on the 24th the light on this island was lighted, and on the same daY the Pilgrim arrived in Alpena. Today you could drive a team from the station door to Alpena over two feet of solid ice, and on the outside of the island it is shoved up fifteen 10 twenty feet high, and the snow is drifted from six to eight feet deep. Buy Your Wheels as Horne We notice by our exchanges that a new fake is being worked on the unwary. Recently a large number of circulars were mailed from:New York from a "bicycle firm" offering t1so public a most liberal offer to introduoe a particular make of wheel. Inreturn for.this favor,. the company. intended giving away absolutely free, 000 wheels. All that they asked was that the sum of $3.85 be sent for packing, etc. When the wheel arrived it *se - found to be a minieture wheel suitable for a watch charm. The moral of this is buy your wheels and all other kind of goods at home, where you can see what you are getting, and where you know the man you are buying from.

PaPlor Concert. One of the best parlor concerts given in the village took place at the residence of Mr. G. W. Berry on Thursday evening last, and was a decided success. Every piece on the lengthy, prograutme was admirably rendered, and the beautiful solos rendered by the little Misses Katie McIntosh and Gracie Stewart, were exceptionally good, and called fourth well -merited applause from the large audience present. The funds were in aid of the Ladies Aid of the Methodist church. Easter Sunday Next Sunday will be Easter Sunday, the church festival of the year when the most stupendious fact of flthe Ohristian religion, the Resurrection, is celeurated. It is a day of hope and gladness, fortunately situated ab the opening of spring. And is not alone in the churches that ' great prepara tions are amide for Eastertide. The dressmakers and milliners vie with Otle another in rich and tastertil pro- ductions with which to supplant the Lenten garb of' Dame -.Fashion, and society plumes itself for fresh frivoli- ties and a new burden of fleshly sins. Wald/rig Bells A very pretty home wedding took place at the resideuce of Mrs. K. ijameron, Campbell- street in this vilLge on Wednesday evenibg, when. Mr. Wm. Stewart was united in marriage to Miss Dolma COaeron, youngest daughter of Mrs. Calneron, in the presence of a number of invited guests and friends of. the 'contracting parties.

The SENT, 1:1, f''' tends to Mr. and Mrs. Stewart our hearty congratulations and best w;shes for a long and happy married life. Is This For You ?

The Ontario Lord's Day Alliance A meeting in the iuterests of Sab- bath preservation, was held in the lecture room of the Presbyterian church, Lucknow, Thursday, March 23rd, when Mr. Young. of Hamilton, a representative of the Alliance, ad- dressed a fairly representative meet- ing. 'Mr. Young dealt very ably with the sanctity of the Sabbath and of the manner in whieh many large corpora% tions and contractors were pressing their way to employ labor upon the Sabbath day, .along many of the main lines of railway, canals and in -steam- boat 'services. He made a very pathetic appeal on behalf of the work- ing men. His address throughout was deeply intetesting and very close to 1 the point of his work. The local Clergy also expressed their sy b with the work and volunteered to give their assistance io every possible, way In preserving the Sabbath. A branch of the Alliatice was organized here. 3-.
