At the recent convention of the Ontario Branch of the Dominion Al- liance which was attended by nearly one thousand delegates, representing all sections of the Province, many important reaolutious were adaptled. The convention by a unanimous vote reaffirmed its position in regard to Provincincial prohibition, and declar- ed its nalterable stand by the posi- tion. ant, in this Province, the li- quor evil demands. and public opin- ion is prepared to endorse such leg• islation as will abolish the bar -room, the treating system, and the% drink- ing in clubs. and will impose on the liquor traffic such further restric• tion as will effectively curtail its operation, and remedy its evil. The services in the Main Street last Sunday were taken by tlev. biillyard, of Lucknow, a former and much beloved pastor. Moth the /ser- mons delivered by Ibev. biillyard, were instructive and full of good- ness, and showed that the Rev. gen- tleman had lost none of his old titre. vigor. At the evening met -vice tiro music was furnished by a male choir of over twenty voices, and it is un- necessary to state tire singing s%'as greatly appreciated. The choir was the outcome of hard work on the part of the pastor, Rev. Fear, who worked hard for anveral weeks, get- ting the men to get up courage enough to make the attempt. It, is expected the married ladies of the church will be called upon to fur- nish the music at the services a month hence. The Stratford Herald has the fol- lowing regarding Mr. E. W. Horne, Mr. F. W. Horne, who has been manager or the Stratford branch of t the Sovereign Bank of Canada. since it opened has resigned from the ser. vice of the Sovereign Bank of Canal. da to accept the managership of the Walkerville Tecumseh and Betio River branches of the home ,Dank of Canada, with headquarters at Walkerville. While regretting his departure and so forth, we under- stand that the change will be a profitable one` t:o Mr. Horse from a salary point of view, and his many friends will be pleased to hear of Lis getting another step upward. Mr. Llcrne has been specially successful in building up a business for tho Sovereign Dank of Canada here, and has placed the bank on such a sure footing here that its success is as- sured. although it is only been open here eight months. Rev. Collins, of the Trivilt Mem- orial Church last Sunday morning gave a very interesting di/moil/lie on the life of St. Patrick, Ireland's be- loved Saint, the day being recogniz- ed ns the one belonging to those of the Emerald Isle. About two bun. dred were present to hear the rec• tor deliver his sermon. rind everyone was pleased with the intelligent ilia - Bourse. According to history St. Patrick wns horn near the town of Ihrnbarton, which in the early cen- turies wus in the northern part of (triton. but is now in Scotland. At that time people were bought, sold or captured as slaves. and St. Pat- rick was captured and taken to Inc• land, where he was put in the ser• via; of an Irish King. Isere he dim - himself. ns did Jose1ilu who %vas sold by his blethers, and people Ir among the Irish people (lid won- ders to%%•auda the advancement of Christianity.

ROBERT E. PICKARD ExE;E,r"„ . 1 GENERALSELLING AGENT FOR WESTERN RAILWAY LANDS During the past three years I have travelled over all of the wheat raising districts of the West, and in that time have sold many thousands of acres of wheat lands. And ..on ac- count of lay connections with the great railway land compan- ies, I have had access to valuable information in advance of the public and the ordinary agent. which has been of great advantage to me in making selections of lands with a view to their being near good railway facilities. Below I give a list of gilt edge propositions all of which I have carefully selected myself. having gone over each parcel carefully, and all have been selected with a view to the quality of the soil, nearness to town and shipping facilities, desirability of class of settlers in districts in which the various lands are located. The nearness; of sup- ply of coal or wood for fuel, etc., etc., and all the lands given in list below aro ao situated that they will be quite near towns on two or more lines of competing railways, which fact will ensure a plentiful supply of cars for shipping grain, for it is a well known fact that all the railways supply competing points with cars, while places where there is only one line near, have to wait indefinately. And the freight rate on wheat which would be raised on any of the undermentione4 lands would not exceed 10 cts. per bushel from shipping station to Fort William or Port Arthur, and in some cases the rate would be much less. This is a most important point, and before you purchs c land it would be wise for you to ascertian what the freight rate would be from shipping point to Fort William, for the freight on your crop haft to be paid every year, the land has to be paid for only once. If you have any idea of purchasing Western lands it will be to your interest to see me at once. A number of persons who have purchased land from me have more than doubled their money, and some of thoso who have cropped their land has -s+ paid for their land with two crops. All information regarding the various lands and locations cheerfully given.
