She leaves a hus- band and young RenvEsTiNG OPEneenoNs. — Last week was an exceptionally fine one for harvesting operations. and , a lot of grain ' was securely garnered. This week will see the balance of oats and peas cut and nearly all secured. The weather has been a trifle catchy, but otherwise:fine ; not too warm for com- fortable work and yet dry enough to help ripen grain. Fall wheat, spring wheat and barley are all good crops. Hay was an unsually good crop, and most of it was saved before the heavy rains, but several farmers lost some thereby, Roots ere looking well, and at present there is every prospect that farmers will have "enough and to Sparc. " for the coming whiter. A PIONEER GoN. — The Pilot Mound Sentinel, of the eith inst., re- cords the death of Joseph Rogers, which occurred at the family resi- dence near Cry staliCity on 29th ult. Mr. Rogers had been ailing for the peet two or three years, but it wars not, until a few weeks ago that his illness; assumed a serious turn, when it be- eame evident that the end was near. He was one of the old settlers of this district, also of the comity of Huron, Ont., where be formerly lived for more than forty years. The deceased was twice a. pioneer. Born in 1829 in the County Monahan, Ireland, he came to Canada with his parents in the year 1832. The fainily first settled in Lower Canada, but only remained there a short time, removing in 1836 to the township of Stephen, Huron county*, where they remained per- manently. Yet in 1879, still in the prime of lifo aud desiring to secure land for his sons, he came to Mani- toba, being the first to settle in town- ship 2-12, where he has since made his 'home. Mr. Rogers was for 52 years a member of the Methodist church and during that, time mended many official positions. He held the office of lass leader for 21 years. There are ot a few residents of Manitoba, too, ho will recall the services in Fair - edit church, long before the days of choirs and. organs, when the beautiful tenor voice with which he was endow- ed filled the old building with its melo- dy. They, as well as all others with whom he came in contact, will also cherish a lasting memory of his genial disposition, his open-handed, warm hearted hospitality. He leaves to nourn his loss a widow, six sons and four daughters. His remains were interred in the cemetery at Crystal City. vIttgi[ THURSDAY, AUGUST 26th, 1897 LOCAL HAPPENINGS STOVES 1 S TOPES. —Stoves and heat ers of all kinds. sold at rock bottom prices.

They are taxing the bank deposits of ratepayers much more generally than ever be- fore. The law gives them power to do this, but it is difficult to ascertain people's cash possessions, and the banks decline te reveal their deposits. Any one who is over -assessed on his bank acconnt may appeal to the coart of revision, where he will be required to swear to the amount of his money. The assessors do not think it just that the whole burden of taxation should ealleapon real estate. Peek shooting begins on Sept. igt, Shooting of meadow larks is illegal.
