The case of White vs. Ward Bros,,
which came up at the last Division
Court, here, shows the foolishness of
going to law over small aecoupts, The
amount claimed by the plaintiff was
$35 but he was nonsuited, each party
paying their own cost. The cost of this
attempt at trial was more than the
whole amount of the claim. The
parties have since settled the ease, the
plaintiff accepting half the amount first
claimed. The plaintiff is yet two or
three dollars worse off than before the
case was entered, while it would have
cost the defendants less had they paid
the whole claim at first.—Lucan Sun,

MARRIED, -000 of those heart stir-
ing and:joyous events which cause a
ripple of excitement in the social circle
took place in St. Columban's churcle,
Irishtown, on Wednesday morning,
Nov, 3rd, when nugh McMillan, of
Tuckersmith, led to the alter, Miss
Mary Ann, youngest daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Chas. Gormley, and one of
Hibbert's most popular and accomplish -
young ladies. Immediately after the
performance of the marriage ceremony
which was celebrated by Very Rev,
Dean Murphy, the bridal couple drove
to the residence of the bride's parents,
where a bounteous wedding breakfast
was served The bride received many
handsome and costly presents, which
show highly the esteem iu which she is
held.

beast became frightened at the noise
of the tin and the loose wool pickings
and made off. Mr, Talbot became
tangled in the lines and was dragged
about half a mile. 1Vheu he was
found, about an hour afterwards, he
was still unconscious. Medical aid was
at once called in, and on examination
it was fouud that he had dielocated his
hip, joint and broken three ribs, besides
receiving a number of bruises around
the head. He is doing as well as can
be expected, and we hope to see hint

DEATHS.—We are sorry indeed to an-
nounce the death of Mrs. Cooper, wife
of James Cooper, which took place Sat-
urday mornings after a protracted
ness; deceased was member of the Pres-
byterian church, and was greatly es-
teemed. The remains were iuterred in
Baird's cemetery,—The home of Mr,
and Mrs. Wm, Cudmore has been sad-
dened by the death of their youngest
daughter, Myrtle, who passed away
Saturday last after a short illness from
inflammation of the brain. Rarely has
the death of one so young so deeply
touched the hearts of this whole com-
uttunity as the one of which we write.
The promptest and most careful meas-
ures that medical skill could suggest,
were unremittingly applied but all
seemed to no avail, the Almighty will-
ed it otherwise. Although only twelve
years of age she was popular and lov-
ed by all. The very large funeral pro-
cession of a hundred and fifty seven
rigs including the pupils of the public
school which she attended, showed very
emphatically the profound impression
her sad taking off made upon all class-
es of the community. The bereaved
parents have the sympathy of all in
their sad trial of affliction.

To Cure Catarrh
Do not depend upon snuffs, inhalentsm
or other local applications. Catarrh is
a constutional disease, and eau be suc-
cessfully treated only by means of a
constitutional remedy like Hood's Sar-
saparilla, which thoroughly purifies
the blood and removes the scrufulous
taints which cause catarrh. The
great number of testimonials from
those who have been cured of catarrh
by Hood's Sarsaparilla prove the Un
equalled power of this medicine to con-
quer this disease. If trubled with cat-
arrh give Hood's Sarsaparilla a fair
trial at once.

Harvey Elliott Shot Dead, by MS
Brother Ered.
Seaforth, Ont., Nov. 9.—News reach-
ed here from Hayfield this morning
that an awful tragedy took place there
last night, a man meeting bis death at
the hands of his brotber. Harvey and
Fred. Elliott ran the Albion Hotel there
for their mother. Yesterday one of the
brothers went to Varna, a small village
a few miles east of Hayfield, and return-
ed in the evening under the influence
of liquor.
It is not known exactly how the af-
fair happened. but it is hinted that
there was a quarrel between the broth-
ers, At any rate Harvey was shot
dead by the other.
The murderer is under arrest, and
an inquest is to be held this afternoon.
Another account says :—The town is
in a turmoil of excitement aver a ter-
rible tragedy that was enacted here
last night, ie which Harvey, Elliott,
bartender of the principal hotel, was
shot dead by his brother. There are so
many different stories told of the shoot-
ing that it is impossible this morning to
get a true version of the affair, but
Coroner Stanbury will arrive this after-
noon to hold an inquest and to make
a postmortem examination. The father
of the young men (tied some time ago,
and on his death it was found that the
younger brother had been appointed
manager of the business, while the eld-
er had to take the place of a bartender.
This is said to have caused much un-
pleasantness and quarrels were fre-
quent between the two. Late last night
guests of the house were started by
hearing a gun shot, and later Harvey
Elliott was found lying dead in a pool
of blood. It is claimed by the younger
brother's friends that the shooting was
accidental, but others say that there
had been trouble and that the shot that
killed was an intentional one.
At the inquest, held here before the
Coroner, Dr. Stanbury, at one o'clock
this afternoon, the jury, after being
sworn,
went to the hotel and viewed
the body. At four o'clock they again
assembled in the Town Hall, and on
receipt of a telegram from the County
Crown Attorney, adjourned until ten
o'clock to morrow. The shooting,which
took place in the street in front of the
Hotel Albion, was witnessed by,.the
mother and sister of the principals, and
; also by Albert Woods and Lewis Da-
t mart ; the latter has gone out of town.
All parties interested in the affair are
very reticent.
