The vacancy on the High Scbool teach-
ing staff caused by Miss Libby's resig-

the engagement of NV Simpson, 43.A..,
of Whitechurch. Mr. Simpson is an

The practice of boys, large and small,
riding on trains here has become so
prevalent that the G.T.R. authorities
have determined to stop it. One day
last week- nine boys were up before
the Police Magistrate for trespassing
on the G.T.R. property and were each
fined one dollar and costs. --Parkhill
has been free from burglars for some
time and the news that Plialen's liquor
store had been entered a few nights
ago, was quite a surprise to our citi-
zens. The thieves had gained entrance
through the door leading to this depart-
ment, the glass in the upper half of it
being kicked into splinters. Abont 25
bottles of the best liquors in sight went
away with visitors who evidently knew
how to make a selection. It is thought
that the perpetrators were local peo-
ple or some one living close to town
who knew the ley of the land. -The

ren were all token violently ill. Dr.
Ferguson, of Kirkton, was sent forand
pronounced the symptoms that of some
active poison and one of 'the children,
Marion, aged 2 years and 6 months
succumbed to its effects on Saturday
evening and was buried Monday after-
noon. .Although the three other child-
ren hada close call, the medical attend-
ant has succeeded in pulling them
through and they are now out of dan-
ger. It was at first thought that the
children had been poisoned by partak-
ing of some highly colored candy which
they purchased at the fair, but it has
transpired that they partook of chick-
en pie, which had been covered for
some thne before eating. It is stated
by medical men that to cover it pie of
this kind before eating is to render it
poisonous, This, then may be the cause
of -the illness and death.
