THE ELECTRIC RAILWAY
At the board of trade meeting in
Wahl non last week, 1t. McNamara
president of the boar of provision'
direct.crs, entered it.t an expionatioa
as to what hes been done and the
present prospects cif obtainir.g the
the road. It is- felt by all partie' t that
the contsl uctiOn of such a line would
bo • public benefit mid - the general
trend of opinion ie that' no stone
should be left unturned to secure this
dosiral►le end. Briete told, the ex-
planation 1:s that Miller Bros., ,of Now
York, the financial brokers, aiue to
the ct►nt•tusien that the road 'could
not he built for the estimated origins
sum, and wrote that unless the bond-
ing powers were incre;1st d, they des
dined to hate anything more to rib
�illi it. That:sett1ed it so far its they
" ere conccrnvd,• a i the re is nut the
slightest boEre . i the railway committee
grantitlg su:ll it r..'que•t. -- Mr. Pew
thea advised" that the . directe'rs look
tJ st reeleely else, and 1111 'English
ccmpliny Kos cnrresp dol with, but
without sutto:se Thiel Mr. Pew
wanted us to hand over the charter
to him. This we declined to do un-
less he gave security thtt►t the road
would. bei buikt, as we did not think it
wise of hc'.ine:ss-like to put ate h a
valuable francai,e int the hands of
any man or body of men who would
hold it for mert ly speculetis a pur-
poses. The offer we nestle him was a
favorable• one, and ono that any per-
• son would accept if the inveutioci was
to proceed wite the work. All we •
asked in the shape of security was a
deposit of 8'25,OOJ for the dues •per-
formance of the contract; portions of
said sum to be withdrawn •as the
work progressed, our o-bjeet being the
commencement of the work. at once
and its completion at as early a date
as practicable. Mr. Pew has, so far,
failed to deposit the amount required,
and present. indications •are that he
will not be able to do so: The posi-
tion is just this : • The charter is oL-
tained and is .open to any responsiUe
person or firm who will give the
nec;ssary undertaking to e,onstrut•t
and equip the road. either as a whole
or ie seetior.s, a may be agreed upon.

land took each other for better or
worse on March 13th, 1`4o, anti on
Monday of last week celebrated 'the
1ftietli sni,iversary of their wedding
dey, a privilege which few_ couples
attain. Mr. Sheppard has Leen a
resident of Huron county for sixty.
bur years so it may well be said " that
Le is a pioneer, while the worthy
partner of his l'oys and sorrows is a
member of a faai:ly intimately son-
-nected with the early drys of the'
Huron Tract. To Mr. and 31 rs.
Sheppard were born eight chi'.1ren
alit; there is yet but one vecant chair.
Six of the family still live on the old
homestead. The golden wedding was
e happy gathering and many are the
expressions for continued happiness
and prosperity which have been
showered upon this venersole couple.
A SCOTCH FARMER IS tilS CUPS
Of tales of the Scot in his cups
Wire is no end, says the t i'asg- w
. 3Mai1. This of a Western fanner is
new. Recently he was t:r ing orae
a loaded Cart, and, the pace o> the
horse failing to correspond with reit
idea.a of speed, he applied, the whip so
vigdrously that the wiser animal of
the two bolt -d and disappeared. In
grief he called upon a neighbonieg
farmer, and that get.tleman turned
rut his hands to find the lost horse
had cart. They found them, the cart
overturned, the horse with his tail
where its head should have been.
''Oh, Bobby," caried the farmer,
wringieg hia hands, "it's died, i'ts
deid." "It's nano deici,' replied Bobby,
"it's a' richt." "As sure as dsith,"
insisted the inebriate, "it's deid." All
Bobby's efforts to convince him' other-
wise were in vain, for, as he tenderly
stroked the horse's tail, he sobbed.
• Ob, Bobby, it.'a died, man, it's died;
for, look, the heid's clean aff o't."
—The majority of farmdrs in the
county will be pleased to learn that in
all probability an opportunity , will
again be give to visit the Meelel Farm
at Guelph next simmer at a small
cost. On Monday of lest week a
meeting of representatives from the
three Farmers' Institutes of the county
was held in Chesley to consider the
matter of an excursion in June. The
outcome of the consultation was the
acceptance of an invitation to send a
deputation to Toronto there to arrange
with the railway people for dates,
rates and other details. It is likely
three different excursions wi l be run
this year from Itree , instead of one
as in 1198—taking a di0'rrects date
for each branch of the railway.
