Mr. Earl Spackman has been trans- ferred from the Molsons Bank staff here to Alr•inston and left fur that place on Monday. Mr. Campbell of \Vinghate, who has been engaged to complete the term as Principal in the Exeter School, com- menced his duties Monday. Mr. William Cross, caretaker at the cemetery, had the misfortune to lose his cow on Friday night, owing to its having been struck by lightning and killed, The quoit, players last week corn• menced to get their ground in shape for practice. Some of the boys intend going to the tournament in London in August. Invitations are out announcing the marriage of Miss Ethel Maud, daugh- ter of Mr. and Mrs. John Bissett of London, to Mr. Isaac C. Robinson on June 10. To -night, June 4th, the Huron Coun- ty Council Reunion takes place at the Hotel Bedford, Goderich. About 150 members, ex -members and county officials will be present. The close season for bass fishing is from April 15th to June 15th, and a new regulation issued makes it illegal "to fish for, catch, buy, sell or possess any bass" between the dates mention- ed. Word has been received here that .the wire worm is playing havoc with certain of the crops, particularly oats, on some of the farms in the neighbor- ing townships. With this exception the crops are in excellent condition. The vestry has been completed at the James street church and it adds considerably to the convenience of the officials and pastor of the church and will be of considerable assistance during conference week. J. Dinsley, a son of the late Joseph Dinsley, died at the House of Refuge, where he was a pay patient, on May 24th. He was 30 years of age. The remains were interred in Clinton cem- etery on Tuesday. The bowling club has commenced, practice on the new green, which is in excellent condition. A fine large club house is being erected at the rear of the ground, and a verandah will be built at the front of the house. We were handed on Friday last a vine of the canning factory peas in blossom, grown on the farm of Mr. Wes. Dearing. This is very early and goes to show the remarkable growth crops have been making the last three weeks. Mushrooms in May ! 'Undoubtedly it is early, but undoubtedly it is true. James Walters and J hn Mellott, who seem to have it little rreserve of their own out in the country, secured a large basket full of fine specimens one morn- ing last week. The warns weather and heavy rains of last week brought there up. On Saturday afternoon during the storm the lightning struck a barn be- longing to Mrs. Y. Fisher and it and the contents were totally destroyed. The loss will be about $100; insurance $75. The fire brigade was soon on the spot but the fire had gained such head- way that the building could not be saved. The marriage took place in Strat- ford, on May _H), of a former Exeter girl, Magnret Flossie. daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John 11. \Vhitiock, to 1Vil- liam Rae, formerly of Scotland. Guests were present from Toronto. Berlin, London and Elintville. The young couple spent part of their honeymoon in Exeter and Elinlville. A young country publisher was out driving the other evening with his best girl. The conversation turned to fortune telling; he asked her if she believed in palmistryShe looked up demurely and naively said: "Well, I don't know, but I think I could fore- tell more pleasure if I saw the lines in one of your bands." The young man was slow to comprehend her meaning, sat with bowed head and wrinkled brow until at least two miles had been traversed when a great light broke up- on bins and an expansive smile illum- inated his features. He took the lines in one hand and grasped the situation. A communication has been received from Wm. 11. Day, lecturer in physics at the Ontario Agricultural College that the department is prepared to again assist fanners in matters per- taining to draining by assisting in tak- ing levels, planning the most advan- tageous systems, and in calculating grades and sizes of tile. Any such de- monstrations made are public and any- one interested is welcome to watch the operations. The outlay neces- sary is travelling expenses of one man, including meals, cartage of instru- ments and railway fare of one cent a mile each way. For information are ply to Mr. Day at Guelph. Cs cer is Buttercups. A Philadelphia despatch of May 20, said: Dr. W. W. Chalfant, whose de - *Aeration that many cases of measles are due to a poison contained in the common field buttercups, attracted considerable attention, is out with an- other statement in arraignment of the flower. He now accuses it of befog 'he cause of cancer. "The active pois- ons in the buttercup." says Dr. Chal- fant, "are substances which produce inflammation at contact. and when taken internally )nay cause inflamma- tion of the stomach and convulsions, and frequently death. The poisons is transferred also in milk and !neat." The familiar and to many persons dis- agreeable smell of mutton is, he as- setts, a distinctly cancerous smell. He states that he bas produced con• ditions similar to those of cancer by rubbing healthy flesh with buttercups. and declares that in all probability the diseare has its origin in the pleat or milk of animals which eat the flowers. He urges the destruction of the bloom. Pay Year Accounts. Dr. A.('.Remsay wishes those owing Mrs. E. W. Horne is recovering nicely. A number from here attend the dance in liensall last week. Ricks' Forecasts For static. A Regular Storm Period is central on the dib, extending from the tth to the 0th. This period is coincident with the Mercury period, which is cen- tral on the 7th. covering the 1st to the 14th. Moon is iu apogee uu the 4th, at first quarter on the 6!h, and on the celestial equator on the 0th. The te- actiona ry storms of the last May per- iod will disappear in the east about June 1st, leaving behind them two or three days of fair. cooler weather. By the 4th and 5th, the barometer will be falling in the west, with rising temper - attire and growing storm elands. Dur- ing the tlth to the t)th, these conditions will move eastward, growing in ex- tent and force. Many sections will be visited by very decided electrical storms, high winds and heavy down- pours of rain. This period, like all the remaining periods of the month, is affected by the June solstice, being al- so at the beginning of the annual June maximum of electro -magnetic disturb- ance which falls every year from about the 8th to the 15th of June. Strong earth currents, and other manifesta- tions of excessive magnetic and elec- tric activity, will be noted at this time. The chances are that thunder storms during afternoons and even- ings will continue over the 10th and llth, into the next storm period. Mrs. W. S. Cole was in London Fri- day. Mrs. J. Willis has gone to Winnipeg on a visit. Mise Della Treble, of London, is vis- iting here. T. B. Carling was in London on bus- iness Friday. Mr. Nelson Hoskin returned to Chi- cago Monday.
