She was afernale "scorcher"'
And she scorched to beat the hand,
She sttnck a hemp and-bumpity
bump?
Of course she lead to land.
She seemed to light ell in a heap
And couldn't find leer "talk"
She lay so urutn nor chewed her gum,
Nor never squeaked a sgeak. ,
To rub her hands one said would be
The proper thing to do.
Another said to rub her head
Woiilti promptly bring her to,
Another who had seen her scorch,
Beheld the sorry wreck;
He heaved a sigh and passed her by
And murmured "rubberneck;"

Death of John Bissett.
Another of our oldest and •well-
known residents has been removed
from our midst by the death of Mr.
John Bissett, who passed peacefully
away yesterday •(Wednesday)' after
noon at the advanced age of 87 years.
The deceased has been in failing health
for. some months . caused by general
debility and the infirmities of old
age, hence his death was not in the
least unexpected. He was a man of
exceptional hardy constitution and
was among the early settlers who
did so much towards transforming
the unbroken forest into the well tilled
fields.. Some years ago the deceased
moved with his wife to the Northwest
where he took up farming and remain-
ed there until death claimed his aged
partner, after which he returned to
Exeter and has ever since made his
home here. In the, year 1892 he again
married, taking as his partner, Mrs.
Bray, who died in the year 1894, sinee
which time he has made his•home with
his nephew, Mr. Wes. C.Bissett, Huron
street. The funeral will take place
to -morrow Friday to the Exeter cem-
etery. -
Successful Hunting.
The following from the Winnipeg
Telegram gives an account of an hunt-
ing expedition in which two former
Exeterites distinguish themselves:-
Messers. Ed. Bissett and M. William-
son, of Kobold & Co., Messrs. West-
cott and Shunerriian, of Douglas, with
blood in their eyes and concealed thun-
der and lightning about their persons,
started last week on a duck and goose
slaughtering tour. They were so suc-
cessful in carrying out their intentions
that their friends, having after v'g
n heard
ofh '
ten exploits, have unanimously
came to the conclusion that the at-
mospheric moisture of the last few
days was caused by the tears that sor-
rowing nessaic and anserine relatives
Wept over the premature and sudden
demise of their brethren. At one
place the gentlemen above named, af-
ter having adjusted properly the de-
ceptive decoy and sounded the allur-
ing goosecry, captured 60 geese and
32 ducks in one day, many of them
weighing from 12 to 14 pounds. Con-
sciencestricken, and filled with re-
move, the quartette of sportsmen aver
that the moribund birds, turning a
reproachful eye on their assassins,
and remembering by what device they
had been enticed, when " towering .in
their pride of place in upper air to
decend earthwards, hissed with dying
breath the all too truthful words-.
What geese we were!" they might
have added -"and fat ones at that!"
The four nimrods, "mighty hunters
before the Lord," bagged in all 120
ducks and geese; and if, as Longfellow
sings, "something humoral still sur-
vives " of these slaughtered birds,
their ghosts willexperience ence a grim
s tisfaction in knowing that the right
ardtt of the ansericides are black, blue
and sore from gun kicks.

The Cemetery.
TO THE ADVOCATE.
DEAR Sin: -Last week "A member
of the Council" writes about the cem-
etery. He states that the Council are
much interested in the cemetery; that
they wish to see it decently dealt with;
that money could and should be raised
before asking the corporation for any;
that the directors are putting the cart
before the horse; and that filthy lucre
rather than decency appears to be the
object. Let us .examine those state-
ments.
1st. If the Council personally are in
favor of improving the cemetery, ac-
knowledge that it badly needs im-
provement, then whyin the name of
mnmon sense dithey throw cold
water on the project by refusing aid.
They know the petitioners were sin-
cere in what they asked. The Council
shows its intense sympathy with cem-
etery improvement by trying to kill
the project at, its outset. This is con-
sistency with a vengence.
2nd. That money could be raised
first from other sources, as lot owners,
other municipalities and the public.
Ask a lot owner for cash and he re-
plies that there is no guarantee of a
permanent fund,tha t the Exeter Coun-
cil has shown so little faith in the di-
rectorate as to refuse a grant, there-
fore lot owners,not knowing
the per-
sonelle of directorate, cannot place
confidence enough to contribute freely;
first get the body primarily inter-
ested, viz, the Exeter Council to con-
tribute and we will help the project.
The position of other municipalities is
shown by the action of Usborne. Their
minutes record that they will make a
reasonable grant when Exeter grants
$100, unconditionally. Then how can
you approach the general public when
municipalities refuse. Then subscrip-
tions
ub ri -
tions wscould also have to be condition-
al.
3rd. The directors did not put the
cart before the horse as Usborne's ac-
tion shows, but took the only course.
open to them.
.4th. That filthy lucre, not
s n timen
t,
is the object cif the directors is an in-
sinuation unworthy • "a member of
the Council" or any person knowing
the condition of the cemetery, the di-
rectors and all the facts of the case. I
stated that, leaving sentiment aside,
it would pay the town many times
over to popularize the cemetery, to
get as large a section as possible bury-
ing there. That is a self-evident state-
ment it cannot be contraverted. Then
why throw away the town's interests
when both sentiment and financial
good agree:*
5th. Your correspondent says that
the Oouncil fully appreciated the grav-
ity of
ravityof the situation and acted for the
best. I am certain they did neither
and possibly before the end of the year
they will more fully appreciate the
fact. The facts are plain. The ceme-
tery is
eme-teryis disgraceful. It wants improving.
It takes money and.work to improve
it. The directors are men equally as
responsible
p as the councillors. ..They
are anxious to get the work clone.
They will spend their time, energy and
money, if other parties interested will
join in. Exeter is first and foremost,
most interested sentimentally and fi-
nancially, then lot owners,- then other
municipalities, then the public. When
the first source of help fails, what can
the directors do? Those are the plain
facts, notwithstanding what "A mem-
ber of the Clouneil" says.
Yours, etc.,
