nesday afternoon Miss Carolyne Web-
ber, eldest daughter of. the Rev. Geo.
Webber, at one time of Tames street
church, Exeter, was married to the
Rev. James Albert Snell, of Rodney.
The ceremony took place at the bride's
home, 101 Bloor street west, Toronto,
and was conducted by the Rev. James
Allan and the father of the bride, the
Rev. Geo. Webber. Miss Bessie Web-
ber and the Rev. 14, M. Hazel, of
Stratbroy, assisted the contracting
partici. Rev. J. A. Snell, is son of
James Snell, of Exeter.
FOR PLANTINo TREES. -The cool,
even temperature of the autumn snakes
it the best time to plant many kinds of
trees and shrubs. This may la done
any thee before the frost locks up the
earth. Forest trees do better When
planted in the fall than in the
spring. Upon an acre of land a grove
of fine young maples might be set out
that would in tiinerepay a hundredfold
their cost. .A few fruit trees could be
set out each fall, according as there
was time, and all these together pro-
perly tended would in a very fewyears
develop into a grand orchard.
EXETER As A ,MA.R T. -A close
observer of market quotations in the
various towns surrounding Exeter,
cannot fail to have noticed that the
average prices paid here forall kinds of
grain and farm produce are equal to,
if not better than, those paid in sur-
rounding towns. Our huyprs deal hon-
estly with the public. At the close of
a day, they do not jump two or three
cents a Bushel on wheat,'so as to secure
a heavy delivery the following day,
but they pay all alike the highest fig-
ure they can afford. Honesty is the
best, policy, and the large quantity of
grain that daily changes bands in
town prove that the farmers have the
fullest confidence in our dealers.

GOOD ROADS. -A,. 11V. Campbell,

ates that there are abundant signs in
he Province that the good road

gt dL is meeting, with grelt41oresC,
He has in hand more than 150 applica-
tions from rural municipalities request-
ing him to inspect and report upon
the best way of improving their high-
ways, and will he occupied for some
inonths in attending to then.. .A. re-
markable fact in connection with the
movement is that close upon $30,C00
have been spent in road -making
machinerythroughout h P -
to Prov-
ince durig the pat year. There is
every prospect that before long the
whole Province will be provided with
passable thorough fares.
THE BEST YET. Never once the
re; opening of the Presbyterian Church
has there been so successful an an-
niversary as that of last Sunday and
Monday. The weather was beautiful,
which, no doubt, admitted quite a
numberattending who probably would
not have clone so had it been otherwise.
Two services were held an the Sabbath,
being conducted by Rev. J. C. Stuart,
B. A., of London, who delivered two
very impressive sermons. He is an
eloquent and forcible speaker, and
his remarks, from themes well chosen,
were of an inspiring nature. The
church was filled on both occasions.
The tea -meeting held on Monday
evening was a fine success. The at-
tendance was large, while the tea and
program could not be surpassed. Th e
program consisted of speeches by Revs.
Bray, Snaith and Willoughby, _of
Exeter, Acheson, of Kippen, and
Dewar, of Ailsa Craig, while the choir
interspersed their usual good style of
music, aided by the Davidson orchestra.
The chair was ably filled by Dr. Lutz
to the satisfaction of all. Proceeds
amounted to $1I8. The members and
other workers deserve credit for the
energy displayed in the preparation of
the supper and program, and every-
body went home delighted, haying
spent a pleasant evening.
THE VERITY WORKS BURNED. -
Shortly after 5 o'clock Tuesday even-
ing fire broke out inthe Verity - Plow
Co's. Works, Brantford. The fire orig-
inated in the paint and varnish room,
and owing to the inflammable nature
of the surroundings it spread rapidly.
The firemen were on the sceneprompt-
ly, and by seven_ o'clock had the fire
under control, The two upper fiats
and the north side are completely gut-
ted. The lower part did not suffer
much, excepting by water. The east
wing, occupied by the offices, is all
right. The wing occupied as the
moulders' room was scorched at the
back ; otherwise, however, it is all
right No estimate can be made of
the amount of loss as yet, but it will
be heavy. It is understood there is
over $30,000 insurance on the building
and its contents, distributed among
various companies. The fireman in-
jured by the falling wall is Thos.Allen.
His injuries may not prove as serious
,as first thought.. It is said two other
firemen were injured, but not seriously.
The fire will throw about 300 men out
of.iniployment, there having been .a
day and night gang at work for some
time past.
T. Fitton & Son have repainted the
front of their Jewelry store, adding
much to its appearance.
Dr. Willoughby will next Sunday ev
ening,deliver the fourth of the series of
addresses on the ProdigalSon. Subject
•"Life Abroad."
The fire at the Verity Plow Works,
Brantford, on Monday evening, caus-
ed a loss to the company of • $60,000..
The cause of the fire was the ex-
ploding of a barrel of benzine.
The new issue of Dominion stamps
