Sometime during Saturday- night
thieves gained an entrance into the
Commercial Hotel, Hensall, by prying
open the window in the barrcom, suf-
ficient to enable them to unlock the
door. They gained an entrance to the
till and rifled it of its contents, which
amounted to $30.50 and a gold ring.
No clue to the perpetrators.
A number of yarns relating to mos-
quitoes are just now going the rounds.
of the press. Here is one for which Mr
John Hillman, of Brandon, Manitoba, is
responsible. He says that a few days
ago a man living on the outskirts of
the city who owns a cow, went out to.
look for her, but was unable to find
her; finally he came across a mosqui-
to seated on the telephone wires on
Rosser avenue ringing the bell which
should have been on the cow. As the
cow was not to be found, the man in
question concluded that his cow had
been eaten up, and that the mosquito

"At the closing exercises in the Cept-
tral School on Thursday, Mr. Gregory
H. Tom was presented with two vol-
umes of poems by his pupils." The
above is copied from the Vancouver
Daily News -Advertiser of June 24th.
Mr. Tom has been teaching only two
years in Vancouver, and ou three dif-
ferent occasions, December 1891, De-
cember 1692, and June 1893, he has
received handsome presents accom-
panied by addresses from his pupils.
Mr. Tom seems to have reached the
land where teachers of his class are ap-
preciated.
To really enjoy a pleasant walk
around town one should take a casual
glimpse of the many vegetable gard
ens en route, Special mention has
been made to us of the gardens belong-
ing to Messrs. Manson, our worthy boot
and shoe maker, Harrison and Folland,
on Andrew street, also William Drew,
who reported green peas two weeks
ago, George Hodgins will dig new
potatoes in a few days, if he has not
already done so. Besides turning out
the best family news paper in the
county, the publishers of the ADvocATE
have gardens full of good things.

The Times, in its last issue, says:-
"The new 'watering cart has arrived
from London and can be seen at the
Town Hall. It is no great shakes and
could as well have been made in
town," If the Times editor had taken
the trouble to enquire regarding the
article inquestion, he would probably
not have made this undue reflection
on our village counci'. We have it,
from good authority that before the,
new cart was purchased a deputation
of the council interviewed several of
the wagen makers in town and none of
them cared to rake it, but strongly
advised the council to try London or
other cities, where the manufacture of
water carts was made a speciality. The
present cart is the result and speaks
for itself, and has only to be .seen in
use to keep up the good reputation of
its maker. Our wagon makers in
town could certainly make just as
good a cart and tank, but the sprink-
ling apparatus is a patent of themaker,
Mr. George Heaman, London. Is there
anything else not right about our
council board, ;Miller?

At it Again.
Hensall Observor.--The Exeter Times
is again despondent and accuses their
local contemporary, the ADvoCATn, for
bringing their cruel scissors into use.
The publishers of the ADvoCATu are
not to be tramped upon by"Miller" and
have explained the matter in such a
way as to leave' no doubt upon the
minds oftheir readers as, tothe ac-
curacy of their . statement: The way'
of the ' transgressor .is hard indeed,
Miller. ,
etsterminate thePotato Eng,
The bugs should be moxa thoroughly
exterminated. Many farmers do not
attend to thisand others only in part.
The results.is the pests spread all over
the country and eat all they want. The
tubers can only grow through the
leaves; when the supply is devoured by
these bugs the .crop must Buffer. The
result is, we seldom see the fine, • large
dry potatoes that formerly were so
plentiful all over the dominion. Every
farmer should make an effort to clean
his crop of these gluttons, and if all
would do this the improvement in the
crop would repay them their labor. The
cost of the small quantity of Paris
green requited is very little, lathe la-
bor is nearly•allthee can be counted.
And here we may, remark—that usu-
ally far too much of the poison is used.
The smallest quantity that can be ap-
plied is sufficient' to kill the bugs. One
pound of Paris green to eighty or one
hundred gallons of water is ,sufficient,
providing it is properly applied. Which.
should be done as ofter as required to
kill all. Itis a great loss to the coun-
try to allow Such a valuable crop to'
be destroyed, when a moderate amount
of labor and dost: will Savo it.
Greeirslade v. .eri"y.
This was an action broughtabout
by George Greenslade, of the 4th con,.
of Hai, against John Berry, bis neigh•
bor, and was tried befor His Worship,
Charles Snell, on Monday and Tuesday
last. The two parties: in question hays
been at variance' for some time over
the killing of some sheep by Mr. Berry's
dog, and which was at the time venti-
lated in court., Some time after this
case was disposed of Mr.. Greenslade's
grandson received a malicious and
threatening letter addressed to Mr.
Greenslade. This letter was not hand-
ed over to the owner but was kept con-
cealed by the grandson until recently
when it was put into the hands of an
American detectived, who has been
working on the case for some weeks.
After the examination of several docu-
ments and the hearing of a mumber
witnesses the matter was finally settled
out of court by each paying their own
costs.
