Dr. Bryce, secretary of the Provincial
Board of health, is investigating an
outburst of ophthalmia, among cattle
in certain sections of Ontario. This
disease, which as its name implies, is
an affection of the eyes, suddenly ap•
pears in a herd, runs through it and
leaves a number of the cattle blind.
Its origin is uncertain, but steps will be
taken to overcome it.
Mutes as to Baggage,
, The latest change instituted b•y the
management of the G. T. R. is the pass-
ing of a new rule as to baggage. In
future a complete description of every
article checked must be entered in a
book and reported to headquarters.
The entry must show exactly what the
article is, what it is made of, what con-
dition it is in, what .injuries, if any it
has sustained whence it comes and how
it has been disposed of,: A code of
abbreviations has been introduced for
the convenience of the baggagemen,
who must uow be something of a book-
keeper. Thus B. L. T. S. B., C. B.,
S. B, means that a black leather trunk
with split bottom, corner broken and
minus a strap has been checked. The
system will add immensely to the work
of handling baggage as it entails a
minute examination of each piece,

Granton.
A man who has been a resident here
for a number of years, committed an
aggravated assault on - his boarding
mistress Monday afternoon. He'
struck her in the face with his closed
fist, knocking her down and otherwise
abusing her. .His actions lately have
been of such a character as to lead
many to suppose that he is becoming
insane,—Marey farmers in this section
of the country are drawing in their
wheat. Crops as a whole are very fair
and probably a little above the average.

Tuckersmlth,
Another of the pioneer settler of this
place has departed this life. Mrs. Geo,
Love passed peacefully away on Mon-
day last. She had reached the good
age of 84 years, She had enjoyed her
usual good health until within a few
days of her death, and even on Sunday
she seemed to be improving. However,
with 'a person at her ago, life at best
is uncertain. She was a native of
County Cork, Ireland, and came to
Canada when quite young. They first
settled in Port Hope and afterwards
removed to this township, where she
had resided for 46 years. Her husband
died about six years ago, and since
then she h&s resided with her son.
She was a kind-hearted, good living
woman and was held in the highest
esteem by all who knew her, and es.
pecially by the old settlers, with whom
she was intimately acquainted. The
remains were laid to rest in the Eg-
mondville cemetery, on Wednesday,
beside those of her late husband. Thus
another link between the present and
the past has been severed.

Upwards of 100 persons took in the
