The Voters' List for the Village of
Exeter has been completed; and from
it we glean the following information:
The total number of voters is 642, 445
of the number being entitled to vote
at both municipal elections and elec-
tions to the Legislative Assembly; 157
to vote at Municipal elections only,
and 40 at elections to the Legislative
Assembly only. The aggregate num-
ber of persons entitled to serve as
jurors is 310.
The past five or six days have been
exceeding hot ones. Sunday and Mon-
day particularly were very warm.
Thermometers in the shade registered
9ldegrees, while those in the sun
reached as high as 115 degrees. The
attendances at the churchesonSunday
were much smaller than usual, every-
body trying to get in a cool place un-
der the trees, of which the village is
well favored. Monday was equally
warm but the ordinary business ,went
on in the town as on other days, and as
far as we have`heard no person is the
worse for the hot days.
From the Voters' List for the
township of Stephen, which has just
been completed, we take the following
interesting information. There are
1270 voters in the township, 532 of
which number are entitled to serve as
jurors,1008 are entitled to vote at both
municipal elections and elections to
the Legislative Assembly; 161 to vote
at municipal elections only and 101 to
vote at elections for the Legislative
Assembly only. The number of divis-
ions has been changed from eight to
nine, consequently the additional di-
vision necessitated a re arrangement
of the entire list.
The Women's Institute picnic held
on Friday Last was an unqualified suc-
cess. In the early afternoon upwards
of a score or more had gathered on the
pleasant grounds of Mrs. A. Rollins,
London Road. South, where a most en-
joyable afternoon was spent in social
chat, friendly discussion of various
household topics, and the transaction
of some details of business. At the
conclusion of the business the table
was set in the spacious dining room
and all sat down to a dainty repast.
Before dispersing a hearty vote of
thanks was tendered Mrs. Bollins for
her kind hospitality. After singing
God Save the King the ladies wended
their way homeward in the cool of the
evening, well satisfied that a pleasure -
able and profitable time had been
spent.

Accident.
On Tuesday last Mr. Richard Brock,
on the farm of Fred Haist, north of
Crediton, on completing a hay stack
30 feet high, in some way fell from the
top to the ground, dislocating his hip
joint and was otherwise shaken up.
He was carried to the house, aid sent
for and the joint reduced. It is a rare
and very painful accident.
Death of Mrs. Brook.
After an illness of some months at
her home, Exeter North, there passed
peacefully away on Friday, July 15th,
the spirit of Hannah Little, relict of
the late William Brook, at the age of
63 years, 4 months, 25 days. During
her illness she had at times suffered
great pain, but she bore all with true
ehristian patience and fortitude, and
was ever thoughtful of those in at-
tendance at her bedside. The deceased
was born on Feb. 20th, 1841, at Shaw
Village, Prince Albert Island, Carle-
ton Co.,but she with her late husband,
who predeceased her some 6 years.

to the e$teenr in which Mrs. .Brook
was held.
