Who Owns the Diamond? A $220 diamond has been found in the crop of an Ontexia turkey by a Liverpool, Eng„ gentleman. On Friday night, Dec, 29, 1693, he bought the turkey in St. • John's market, It weighed Itti pounds, for which he paid lOs 9d, thinking he would have a nice treat with his family on New Year's day. Hie wife being poorly at the time, he tuadertook to pluck and eloper° the bird himself. Curiosity prompted him to examine the pebbles and corn which were in the crop, when, to his great eurpriee,he found amongst them a i stud, snob as s worn in a geetlero an's shirt. He showed it to two friends of his in the jewelry businees, and they both pronounced it a diamond mounted in fine gold and wortn at lost 5220. What Can- adian fattened hie turkey on diamonds and gold? To limit Jury "Trials. The Benchers of the Ontario Law society will shortly discos the changes proposed to limit the work of juries. The most im- portant is to give the judges of the highe courts wider powers in trying and diepos- ing of cases without a jury. It is in fact the intention to abolish the jury system in civil cases to about half its present extent. The reason for all this is that the jury system, as at present constituted, tend to greatly increase the cost of litigation, juries, often giving verdicts contrary toth the charge of the judge, as they are to be most influenced by the sen aspects of the case. An appe follows a jury case and the that the verdict is set asi courts. The Bench° the opinion a gree saved to the co litigants if - on man pass d be y to the wed to it t has almost every verdict of ainet. The ideas of ntetpretation ol she law e so vastly different that a is at least a remote hope in riots certainty of success. —•-- Wall° School Board minutes. January 17th 1894.

Mrs, Charles Brown, Toronto, aeiressmissmistries Elect no Light. To the Editor of the Exe,ter Times. There has been considerable talk about getting an electric light plant in the village. Since the proposition was ntade in the Council chamber on Friday even- ing last by, one of our valued citizens Mr J N Howard, who, the writer is in- formed, offered to put in the plant and furnish lights for 15 cents each per night if the council would grant him a franchise of the town for five yeats, and would bind himself to erect the same and fur- nieh the necessary light for the village, as a ratepayer, ,Iwould suggest that as Mr aovvtird would be at a great deal of et- pense in fitting up the old grist mill prop- erty with all the necessary ornachinery and equipinent to run the eltetric light, that the council grant him ten or mere years franchise. Why not procure the same at as early a date as possible? About one dozett lights would do the village to start with, and if found satisfactory more could be added in the near future.
