This morning at half past seven,
Master Bert White, son of the editor of
this paper, whilepiaying, fell in such a
manner as to break his arm. The arm
was broken some years ago, and the
fracture now was a very bad one, one
of the bones belowthe elbowbeing bent
as well as broken. Drs. Thompson and
Fraser were called in and set the
kroken limb, but on account of its
nature they were doubtful that the
operation was successful. Fortunately
the Roentgen Rays was on exhibition
in the city, andthisafternoon the young
lad was taken to the Miller block
where they are, and in the presence of
Drs. Fleming, Thompson and Fraser,
as well as a number of prominent
citizens, theinjured ed member was plac-
ed
1a -ed in the machine, the rays turned on,
and a perfect view had of every bone
in the forearm. The test confirmed
the doubts of the medical, gentlemen,
and showed a distinct bend in the upper
bone where it lay on the one beneath
it, requiring a, further operation which
will be performed on : Mbnday. A
number' of others were there for the
purpose of being examined. It is not
improbable if sufficient money can be
xaised that the medical faculty here
will secure an X Rays for the use of the

SUDDEN DEATH F THOS. M. CAR-
Ll;vG.—The people of Exeter were
surprised to learn of the death of
Thos.M.Carling,Clinton. On theFriday
evening previous he was taken ill, but
no serious results were so soon antici-
pated, For several years he had not
been in the best of health, although
apparently robust. At the exami-
nation after death by Drs. Freeborn
and Gunn, it was found that the fatal
results were caused from gangrene of
the upper bowel owing to acute in-
flammation, They discovered a small
tumor in the end of the stomach
which would in time have caused the
inflammation. The funeral took place
on Saturday under the auspices of the
Orange Order, of which deceased was
a member, and was largely attended,
The floral tributes were numerous and
beautiful. Among those from a dis-
tance were Mr. McFarlane and Mrs,
Frazer from Grey; Mrs. and three Miss
Mc 5
-Ic Ls�:ins andMr. and lir., Stewart
from Hensall; Thos. B. Carling, Thos.
Acheson, I. Carling, Mr, E. and Mrs.
hristie, Mr. E. and Mrs. Howard,
r. J. and Mrs. Hawkshaw, Mrs.
Tait, his mother, of Exeter; and David
ai t of Detroit. The deceased was
rn at Exeter, this county, his age be-
ing but 41 years, S months and 10 days.
His father, the late Wm. Carling, was
a cousin to Hon John Carling, Lon-
don. For 20 years the deceased had
lived in Clinton and • vicinity, and for
many years was one of the most pop-
nlar and trustworthy valuators and
auctioneers in the county. He was
well and favorably known throughout
Huron. He leaves a bereaved widow
and five small children— four daugh-
ters
aughters and one son who will receive $1,-
000. In paying his last assessment, the
day he took ill the deceased hesitated,
but on advice consented to do so and
thus secured to the widow and or-
phans a small portiau of this world's
goods. T. M. (iarling had a generous
and noble heart. Let those who are
without sin cast the first stone. Peace
to his ashes.

the best rag carpets, rugs and mats
shown at country fairs and exhibitons
hist year were dyed with the fast and
brilliant Diamond Dyes.
This season, we hear that even more
extensive work is going on for the coin-
ing autumn fairs. The ladies who are
experts in art of carpet, rug and mat
making ° are now buying Diamond
Dyes in large quantities to color their
materials for the manufacture of ex-
hibition goods.
At all fairs, nine out of every ten
exhibitors of homemade carpets, rugs
and mats use the .Diamond Dyes,
knowing full well that the imitation
dyes can never give satisfactory re-

If you are about coloring materials
for exhibition goods do not allow your

He makes a large profit, but you suffer
loss of your money, time and

to use them.

This is the season of the
year when goods must be
sacrificed in prices. We are
not able, neither are we willing
to carry over large amounts
of summer goods as our space
is limited and new fall goods
are beginning to arrive.
New Cottona.des
New overalls
New Smocks,
New Shillings,
Ne ickings,
Ne flannelettes
and various other things are
now arriving. Spring and
Summer goods must disappear
even at reduced prices. Pays
us better to lot them go at
cost prices, or a little less. If
you want a bargain now is
your chance.
NOTIC
We have a large stock bf
boys and youths clothing bot
at a snap. Will be sold cheap.
Boys who are .earning money
in the flax field will be liberal-
ly treated.
