R. official states that the pay roll throughout the entire system for one mouth amounts to $750,000—three- q,uarters of a million. Mr. Justice Osier gave judgement in the case of the disputed ballots in West Huron on Saturday, the result being that the election was declared a tie, the casting vote being in the hands of the returning officer, TEE TALLEST OBELISK. A single stoue 115 feet leug, 10 feet square at one end and 4 feet rquare at the other; has been sucteessfuliy mit frooi the sandstone quarries at Hougb- ton Point, Wis. It is supposed to be the longest mouoltth ever quarried. Rev. Dr. Carman, Rev. Dr. Potts and other ministers of the Methodist Church waited ou the ieremier and Messrs. Fisher and fielding at Ottawa to ask that the question on the prohibition plebiscite should be one to which a di- rect yes or no answer could be giyeu. The request will be considered. The Grand Trunk's earnings for the week ending March 21, 1898, amount- ed to $453,410, against $410,545 for the same period last year, an iaerease of $42,925. The Canadian Pacific earat- iug for the same period this year were $468,000; last year the -figures were ;1325,000 an increase of $13$,900. Jones v, the Grand Trunk Railway Co„ an action for damages for injuries sustained by the plaintiff in au acci- dent at a crossing in St. Marys came up at the Woodstoek assizes. The dam- ages claimed ware $e,000. Mr. Wallace who had the plaiutifa case, asked for an adjourumeut by consent till the fall assizes. The adjournment was accord. iugly made. A remarkable incident is reported to have occurred at the Trinity ;Methodist Episcopal church, IA New Haven, Conn, the other Sunday. The choir was re- hearsing, and was singtng, "Oh, That I Had the Wings of a Dore," when a ear rier pigeon flew in at the open window. The bird, which was exhausted, was caught by the sexton, but after being fed, appeared to be in fair condition. Cattle dealers are realizing a tre- mendous boom inCanadiau cattle. The removal of the three mouths' quaran tine by the American Government has opened up the Amerieaa market to Ca nadiau stock. In addition a vast mar- ket for grazers is opening up in the North West as a result of the reduced. rates of the transportatiou. By virtue of this the North -`''Pest ranchtneu find it mere profitable to buy yearlings in Ontario instead,of breeding their own cattle A beast can be fattenea at a very small cost in the Territories, and for this reason the business is growing more and more profitable, A four inch circular saw for the am• putation of limbs is being installed at the Emrrgeue_v Hospital at Boston An electric motor will furnish the power to run the device. The saw will be moue e on a flexible shaft like that whi' Mist uses, only larger. T tee sarin s de el` `iaiaruns thk,;:,fr ;,, in wfl& „ • ek s 4..,,r aroor, are at tached ?fete handle by which the surg- eon is able to direct the saw at any an- gle. Dr Galvin and his assistants will be able to save considerable time by the use of this appliance. Not only does the saw cut much faster than a hand tool, but the heat of its rapid cut- tiug sears the flesh and blood vessels, and the healing processes of nature are advanced to a stage which by the old method is reached only after an hour or two. `t A Government blue Book is, as a rule, not to be taken up as light reading, nevertheless that part of the report of the Inland Revenue of the Dominion, which deals with .the adulteration of food, is not destitute of items of inter- est. Take mustard for instance. Of 66 samples examined only 3 are report- ed genuine. Too often the article sold as pure mustard seems to be pure only to the extent of 60 to 75 per cent. If you are content to buy mustard label led Se compound "you. may get it "com- pounded" with 60 to 80 per cent of adulterants. These adulterants appar- ently are harmless enough in them- selves, but when your doctor prescribes so many spoonfuls of mustard in a -poul- tice or in a. foot bath the proportion of wheat flour contained in the mixture is of some importance to the invalid. Your chanees with pepper and ginger are good, as pure sample:: preponderate but the vinegar of commerce seems to be a very doubtful article indeed. "Dilute acetic acid mislablled vinegar is not adulterated according to the Act, says the report, and so much the worse for the Aet. Competition is the soul of business, and of adulteration too. The intelligent public following the trail of the cheapest commodity regardless of quality deserves to be imposed upon, and duly gets its desert. Tne rcpttta tion of the"busy bee," however, has met with wonderful consideration, as pure honey is the rule rather than the excep- tion. You can still hear your children recite that °' The Queen was in the ar bour eating bead end honey;" with- out making the unpleasant reflection that perhaps it was only glucose. The names of the mildlydelinqueut. Manu facturers are giyembut in cases of groan acne teration they are withhekl from the analyst,: Legislation, however, has' been proposed to provide for this omis- sion and with somebody to put the law into sone sort of motion we -for a time. at least =shall obtain pure necessaries and luxuries.: We shall also pay a lit- tte more for them and grumble accord y. lir bite the population of Europe. whieh was estimated at 175,000000 in rhe beginning of the century, rose to 216,000,00 in 1830, 300:000.000, in 1870 and is now nearly 870,000.000, there has been a still abeeu more remark, able increase in the number of towns with over 100,000 inhabitants. There were only 21 of these in. ISCI (with 4 500,000 iuhabitants), 42 in 1850, 70 in 1870 (with 20,000,000 inhabitants). In 1801 France had three towns with over 100.000 inhabitants, while England and Germany bad two each. but 1870 the figures were: England 18, Germany 10, and France 9, while in 1896 they stood: England 30, Geranany 28 and France 10.

David- son, florist, Montreal, against all the members of the late government for $1,041, the price of the wreath ordered by them to be placed on the coffin of the late Sir John Thompson as a token of their affection and esteem, and for which they have never paid. Struck Down in His Office. Petrolea, Ont , March 27.—About half past 8 o'clock on Friday night a man walked upstairs in the Pollard block and rapped at the door of Dr. Ludlow's dental office. He was told to come in. He informed the doctor that he had a very bad tooth, and had bis hand partly covering the lower part of his jaw. As the doctor turned around in his chair he was struck on the fore - bead with a short stick of wood, and a cut about one and a half inches was made, from which . the blood flowed freely The doetor, grappling with the fellow, was struck on the head a second and third time, each blow cutting the scalp, Then the robber took the doctor's pocketbook, containing about $35 in money and some cheques and receipts and then ran down stairs, The doctor, reaching the head of the stairs before the robber went out, went after him, and opened the door, shouting " Murder!." The chief of policewas quickly on the • scenee, but not loon enough, and the robber escaped The doctor gave a description of his assail. tint whieh may lead to his arrest. Dr. ,Ltidliew's wounds were dressed, and nothing seri.')us; it is 'believed will fol. lots. He was known to be in the habit of carrying .large amounts of money on his person, and the police think the II outrage was done by some one here 1 who knew this fact. , IBilled in the Bush, Chatham, Out , March 28th•.—While working, iu a bush in Chatham town• ship to -day Wm Miller, 18yoars of age was instantly killed. Deceased and his brother were cutting cordwood, and were iu the ;;.let of feliiug a tree, when a branch struck the young man on the head, fracturing his. skull. He only lived a few minutes. He was the sou of Walter Miller,a welt -known farmer, of Chatham township. Love in a Letter. Guelph, March 26.—A little over a year ago Miss West, Paisley street, be- gau corresponding with a young man in the United States. whom she had heard her relatives mention. He an- swered, and tender missives travelled back and forth uutit an intimate ac- quaintance was formed. Then photo. graphs were exehat,ged. He was smit- ten and she was infatuated. It was a case of love by letter. He proposed and she accepted. On Monday eveniog be arrived in the city to claim his bride,. and on Thursday they were quietly married, and left in the evening for their new home in Uncle Sam's do- mains. The Strangeness of Fate. Last fall Jas. Allison murdered Men Anthony tho Orr, near Galt, On Feb. 4th. the lad was hanged_ Since thea fate seems to be pursuing both families with, relentless hand. A few days after the banging Tony Orr scalded both feetse- verely, Fe was out the other day for the first time. Mr. Allison was prat ticafly demented. Now one of the AM son girls is suffering with. diphtheria, and the house she was in was badly wrecked in the recent flood A. few evenings ago Mrs. Dickson Ballantyne. Anthony Orr's housekeeper, about 70 years old, went to the cow stable to de some milking.. As she did not return Mr. Orr set out to look for her. He reachedthe barn and following marks of spilt milk found the old lady in a seuli unconscious and hoipless condi- tion in the basement, where she had fallen through a trap door. She is hurt internally and is now in Galt Hospital, Comforts of the Farm. Only those who was engaged in farm- ing in this country a generation ago realize the wonderful improvement that has taken place in the conditions of life during the past thirty years. Things that then was regarded as lux uriea, obtainable only by city dwellers, are now withiu the reach of all, and are looked upon as necessaries of life. Al - moat every year something is added to the list of convenieuces which the farm. ers enjoy in common with laity people, while tho inventive faculties of the cleverest mechanical geniuses are con- stantly at work perfecting machinery to retader the farmers' toil less arduous. A few years ago a daily paper was not thought of in these ycetee e,r t ttet ;. eye To day tb.4re is no progressivA farmer e°l; hef;att"eons While a weekly was the best that could be had a few years ago, a daily is regarded as indispensable to- day, and seven eighths of the farmers. of Ontario subscribe for one. The end is not yet. The Iatest ex- periment of the Washington Govern meat is to establish a free rural mail delivery, which, if it proves successful, will be a boom of no small proportions to the farmer. By that means hued - reds of thousands of farmers within reach of the big cities will be able to read the day's news at the tea table, just as tbe mechanics employed in the city workshops do at present. This will bring the farm -house into closer touch and more intimate relation with the life of the cities, and add much to the attractiveness of agricultural pur- suits. This move on the part of the United States Government is good policy, for the reason that it has a tendency to raise the standard of comfort in rural districts, and make the rising genera tion satisfied to stay on the land. The Canadian Government will make no mistake in enacting measures that are calculated to increase tbe reward of the farmer's toil or to brighten his lei- sure. Fire Flashes. Thamesville, Ont,, March 28,—Shortly after 11 o'clock to -night fire was dis covered in Park's block, in the grocery store occupied by James Secord. The firemen soon had a stream of water playing on the burning building, but much damage was done by smoke and water St. Catherines, Ont., March 28.—Mrs. Clark's bakery and dwelling, corner St. Paul and Court streets, was badly dam aged by fire and fire about three o'clock this morning.

McLaugh- lin, tailor, who had no insurance, loss unknown; E Alger, shoemaker, loss complete, partially covered by insur- ance; J. Graham, implement agent Loss $400, insured for $400; E. Cole, confer tioner, lose $600, insured for $400; Tr Middaugh, occupying part of building as dwelling, lost everything, no insur- ance. The band boys lost their, bass drum and a tenor horn. The buildings. were owned by M. Stewart; insurance unknown. The total loss will be. about • gash, $4,500. A Young Lady auic des, Peterboro' March 25.—This morning a young lady named Esther Young, who lodged with Mr, R Newton, Hun- ter street, left the house about 2 o'elock and the fact that her steps were traced to the riser, which 18 near the house, and then disappeared, led to the con- clusion that she had committed suicide. This theory was confirmed later in the day, when Mr. Newton got from the postoffiee a letter written by the girl, which was incoherent and rambling, and closed with the assertion that the writer would not die a natural death. The young lady came front Havelock to Peterboro' last January to obtain music pupils, and her failure to do so, coupled with ill health, it is supposed, brought on a condition of despondency that accounts for the suicide, which the police, who have Glade investigations', into the cireumsteeces, believe she has'', committed. She was about thirty years of age, tall and fair, well educated and saki to be a fine musician, Obituary. John Johnson, of the 6th concession' of Lobo, died ou Marsh 2Q, at the age of 95 years. Mrs. Wm, Coultice, of Fullarton,died on Saturday, after a long illness. She was a sister of Mrs Oliver Harris, of the same township, who died only last week. The death is announced of Mrs. Hall widow of the late Henry Han, at Ilder ton, and of the best known and highly respected citizens of that district. She leaves a. family of several children,. The rider of the pale horse visited the home of Mr and Mrs Matthew Kerr, Wi.nghatn, on Sunday and teemed them of their daughter, Sadie .E., at the age of 88 years and 5 mouths Deceas ed .had been a patient nuJ%rer from dropsy for over a year. Mr. and Mrs, Robert Fuller who mov- ed a short time ago from Hibbert to Downie, are mourning the loss of their sou, Ross, who passed away on Alareb 19th, after a short illuess. Everything that medical science could suggest was tried in the effort to sage life, but in vete, With deep regret we announce the death of Mrs. Mary Ana Oke, wife of Jas. Clyde, St. Marys, which took place Friday, Mrs Clyde baying met with an accident through a fall of March 1st which turned into blood poisoning, wait the above result. Mrs, CIyde was $5 years of age. Mush sympathy is felt for Mr. and Mrs. Joseph liumphris, of St. Marys, in the sad loss of their only son, a bright little boy of trifle over eight years of age, from the weakening effects of ty. plaoid fever, which went to his lunge, causing cougestion, and which terrain ated in his death on Friday last. We regret to announce the death of Mrs James Whitten, of Bayfield, whieh occurred on Saturday, as the result of cancer. Deceased was one of the old est and most respected residents of the vil'l`age, ha�''it"*ii`� d here a geed many years. "She was in``the neighborhood of 80 years of age and.7 i member of the Presbyterian church, On Monday Miss Aunie Mason,'filflt:st daughter of the late lir. Harry est of Tuckersmith, and granddauMe item of Mr,.James Forsythe, of Egmondvillte, passed peacefully away to her last home. Deceased waa both in Tucker - smith, but for the past few years lived in Egmondyille. She 'was ill for two years with that dread disease, consump- tion. Death seems to be of frequent occur- rence in Mitcbell,d uring the past montb. On Thursday fir. Robert Machan died at his home near Mitchell, having only attainedthe e ag a of 26 years. ea . About a year ago he caught cold, which de- veloped into consumption, which could not be cured. He leaves a. wife and aged mother to mourn the death of husband and son. Christina, better known in Russeldale vicinity as " Kirsty Patterson," for 37 years a faithful housekeeper for Hugh and Dugald Stewart, Hibbert, breathed her last on American soil. On the 1st inst., she, along with her nephew, .Neil D. Stewart, and his youthful bride, left on a visit to some of her friends North Dakota. En route the aged lady took sick in Chicago, and before the bridal party reached their destination their invalid companion was in a criti- cal condition, resulting iu death two days after from chronic -asthma and fatal heart trouble. The furnace of affliction through which Mr. and Mrs. J. Laithwaite, of the Maitland con„ Goderich Tp., have been called to pass, is severe indeod, and calla for more than human power to . endure. A comparatively short time ago they were called upon to mourn. the loss of a son who died in California just as he was entering man's estate. One month ago their youngest son died of scarlet fever just as he too was developing into manhood and apparently a life of usefulness and promise. And on Tuesday of last week another son, Wm. Lionel, aged 23 years, succumbed to a 'short attack of scarlet fever, About two weeks ago he was in town and attended the dis trict convention, and next day he com piained of not feeling welt.and went to. bed. A doctor was summoned who gave him every possible attention, and for a time had hopes of his recovery, but on Sunday and Monday, he kept getting weaker, and suffered consider- ably until.death relieved him. James Love, who works at O. & W. McVean's bub and spoke works, Dres- uen, had a miraculous escape Friday, morning from entirely losing his left eye. He was working on one of the machines, when a sliver flew, striking. him in the eyeball about one eighth of an inch from the sight, cutting a nasty E COMFORT VICTORIES FOUR MEDALS-3Gold and 1 Silver, World's Centen- nial Cotton Exposition, New Orleans,. 1881.
