Is Exeter evilly inclined, or why does It
" Love darkness rather than light ?" It
hae long, broad and good sidewalks, nice
sheets and neenues, but scarcely any light
itt nitebt. True we have some street lamps,
but they aro scarcely ever lighted. Is the
Couucil economising in order to purchase
an electric dynamo, or it it too stingy to
provide suffieient light to filmes safety to
pedestrians?

honors grasp lyour bands with fond em-
brace and eagerly whispers -like the broken-

There seems to be a great deal of feeling
over the recent fine imposed by our magis-

pears that the doctor gave a certain person
a prescription to get filled at the druggist's,
not taking any pay for the same he having
no license to practice in Canada, although
poseeseing one for doing to in the United
States. A. detective, who had been follow.
ing him for some weeks previous, had bim
brought before our J. P. wbo imposed a
fine of $50 --the extreme limit allowed by
law. The law allows a fine of horn $5 to
'550, and it is thought by tome that the
doctor was salted a little too heavily,

A Come STORY. -A most remarkable feat
in the line of marksmanship was eerfortned
iu the vicinity of Grand Bend on Thursday
last. The genial landlord of the el. 13.
hotel, Mr. Jos. Brenner, atoompanied by
the Dashwood butcher, went down the river
for the purpose of hunting and shooting
game. They had nob gone far when Mr.
Brenner, noticing a hole, about forty feet
above the ground, 10 a large tree, came to
tbe conclusion that a coon was secreted
there. _eloping to scare the animal from its
nest Mr Brenner fired at the tree, the bell
entering the trunk about two feet below the
hole. They then heard a noise indicating
the presenrie of ocon ; and after telling the
tree, found a large coon perfectly dead, the
bell heeler/ pierced its neok. This may be
conceded as remarkable, bet leis absolutely
hue. It was one of the many eingulfw nee,.
