In characterized the meeting as the most Now, Mr. Editor, until enlightened fished wealth, having been talked into the spring of 1595 she left her home liberal and enthusiastic he had met and went to the States, where she has with in the Province, a sister and other friends, thinking that a change of climate might benefit her. While- there she was attended by medical men, but without any im- provement, in fact she gradually grew worse, until she used to spend the greater part of every day on the lounge at her sister's. Friends came to see her, only to go away with the sympathetic remark, "Poor Flora, she is not long for this world." From the beginning of her sickness up to the time when the first box of Dr. 'Williams' Pink Pills was taken, she had tried upwards of twenty different kinds of medicine — some from doctors and some of the many patent drugs for sale 'at... druggists. Hearing from a friend of the value of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, Miss Fer- guson resolved to give them a trial, and requested her sister to get her a box, Following' the directions care- fully she began to take then?. As day by day went by she began to feel bet- ter andhe r sprits toreturn,and in s p the course of a few weeks she walked a mile to the post .office and home age� in. Miss Ferguson continuedtaking the- pills until she had used eight boxes, when she was completely restored to health and happiness. She was again s rong and healthy. While ill she had t •eittly run down in weight, and at t ,e time she began using Dr. Williains' Pink Pills, was reduced to 102 pounds, and when she had completed the eighth box her rveight had increased to, 141 pounds. Only one month ago. she called at the home of the editor of this paper to leave her address to haye ,the Reporter forwarded to her at Arlington, Mass. During the mo- ments conversation with her the above facts were told to Mr. W. A. Richardson, the editor, and with beaming countenauce Miss Ferguson willingly agreed to ` have him tell the people "How Dr. Williams' Pink Pills brought her from the gates of death to the enjoyments of health." He was astonished, as being well ac- quainted with her when in Sydney, knowing how ill she was and seeing her a physically changed person was enough to cause anyone to be amazed at the change. The above facts can be verified by writing Miss Ferguson, at No. 16 Hen- derson street, Arlington, Mass. ; the editor of the Island Reporter, Sydney, C. B., or any one of the intimate friends of Miss Ferguson, Hardwood Hill, Sydney. by such unimpeachable authority as Mr. B. must universally be acknowl- edged to be, I heel considered the use of aflctitious name as a commonmethod employed by writers, who,though having no special cause to blush for their subject:wishto avoidthe appear- ance of egotism or indulging in per- sonalities, and in this latter I appear amply borne out by the freedom with winch these are resorted to in Mr. B's article ; but be possibly considers the name over which he writes was suffic- ient of itself to remove the sting from. what from any other source might pro - yoke resentment, Mr. B's article also, both in its personalities and asser- tions relative to the matter in hand, would be unanswerable if, as the writer seems to suppose, the name he makes such merit of using were indeed a sufficient guarantee for the contained assertions, exonerating him from all burden of proof. Accordingly, Mr. B., having apparently ascertained the identityof "FairPla,y,"proceeds to state thatcompany withother members into an h P y of the club he went round town bespat- tering with "vile names," the like of which had never been known to drop from their honeyed lips, his helpless and innocent opponents. Now, Mr. Editor, when two or threeare gathered together and are all equally industri- ous in the bespattering business, it is rather hard for one not possessed of the talent which Mr. B's article evinces to keep track of every • loose statement ; but as to my going round. town calling vile names, I must decidedly refute the imputation and say that Mr. B. has been misinformed. In view, however, of the ,'possibility of an amicable settlement between the two clubs and also of the personal esteem which I have for Mr. Bobier, I do not wish to further stir the matter up, but feel that in justice to the rest of the committee I must notice one other point. Mr. B. has correctly stated. that I (though not the manager) proposed at the town hall meeting to leave the matter to the decision of two or three men, which would most certainly commend itself to one's com- mon sense as the best way outof a dif- ficulty which could not be settled on the spot. It did not, however, com- mend itself to Mr. B's, who insisted on making the matter hinge ou the special conditions of the council grant, thus rendering my proposal superflu- ous. I, not being conversant with the facts of the matter, turned to my con- freres to ask if such were the case, to which they replied in the negative, and, as I have since found out, were right in so doing, for it in reality de- pends wholly and solely on whether the sum in question were or were not promised by last year's officers. In one of Mr. B's statements I quite concur, viz, this "newspaper fighting" is not at all to be desired, and shall put my be- lief into practice by saying nothing further on this matter in public. Any desirous of possessing the facts of the case can easily do so without trespass- ing further on your indulgence. Thanking you for what you have al- ready extended.

LIZZXT HARDY, a, Onf , the matter by a most extraordinary and affable ,gentleman by the very or- dinary name of Mr.Brown,of Arizona. Brown told Mr. Moore to his face that. he liked his looks and knew he could be trusted. They registered at the Belehamber, On Moore asking Brown where his partner was, the latter said that he was a Mexican, untutored to the roan= ners of an effete civilization like we have here in Sarnia and had taken quarters amongst thea shrubbery of the. reserve. Brown explained further that Dongolas had in his possession several chunks of gold from the Arizona mine and it would not be safe for him to come up town. Brown invited Moore to visit the reserve and see the Mexi- can and the samples, end a' livery outfit having been procured, Moore accepted the proposition. Sure enough, on get- ting well into the bush on the reserve the Senor Oreo Dongolas appeared be- fore the astonished St, Marysman,who had never seen anything more of a Mexican in his life than a chronic of President Diaz when he had his white shirt on. The senor was attired in outlandish fashion and is said • to have needed a haircut. Upon the request of Brown, Dongolas produced two solid gold bricks, which made Mr. Moore's eyes stick out like the sides of an editor's purse. Dongolas had them wrapped tenderly in several layers of cloth. As Moore had been promised a one-third share in the gold taken from the mine he saw at once that the chance of a lifetime had come. He would like to know if the gold in the bricks was simon pure, so the Mexican hied himself back into the lair, while;; Messrs. Moore and Brown returned to town to have the gold assayed. Mr. Moore seemed greatly taken up with his new acquaintance and let hien do all the talking. The man Brown went to David Barr's jewelry establishment and enquired if he could assay ore. Mr. Barr said it could not be done this side of Toronto. Mr. Brown went to Mr. Moore and told hint that Mr. Barr said there was a U. S. government es- sayist stopping at the Belehamber. Mr. Moore was real glad and both re- paired to the hotel again. They hunt- ed up Mr. Griffin, the aseayist, who was a huffy, corpulent and middle- aged gentleman, and asked him to as- say their gold bricks. Griffin said he. was not working privately, being a government essayist only with offices in Port Huron. On being told that if he did not do it, the gold would have. to be sent to Toronto to be assayed, Griffin finally agreed to do the job for $3. Griffin produced his certifi- cates before beginning the work, just to show all concerned that he knew his business. Mr. Moore was more de- lighted than river, when Mr. Griffin i.nnounced the gold 24k. The man Brown then opened his scheme. "Mr. Moore," said he. "if you will give Dongolas and myself $9,- 000 Bash down we will give you one- third interest in the property—you to take these two bricks as security." Mr. Moore jumped at the chance, and after making further arrangements to get the rest of what was coming to him, he went to Manager Winlow, of the Traders Bank to get the money, haying G. N. Matheson, collector of customs, to identify him. The clerks of the bank telephoned to St. Marys to find how Mr. Moore stood and re- ceived as answe r that he was good for any amount. Mr.. Moore's credit was of far greater value than the bricks. No questions were asked, the money being paid in $5 and. $10 bills. Before he went down to the reserve again, however, Mr. Moore wanted to inves- tigate for himself. He took a knife and shaved off several slices for in- spection, bringing them to both Messrs. Battley and Turner for :-analy- sis. The gold shown them certainly stood good tests and was pronounced as perhaps 24k. At Turner's about a pennyworth was shown and at Batt- ley's thrice that amount. Brown ac- companied Moore to . both stores. Moore's mind was at once set at rest and he went down with Brown to the reserve and exchanged the 50,000 for the bricks—without taking a receipt. The deal completed, Mr. Moore in- vited bis new found friends to acconi pany him to St. Marys but they said they had other business nes to attend 1.0. Mr. Moore was driven to the tunnel depot while his partners returned to the Belehamber to get Mr, Griffin, who had saved thein the trouble of sending thebricks to Toronto to be assayed, y ,, to go out to the tunnel station and spend . a few hours • with hine But Messrs.

Fortunately its character. was suspected and measures taken to prevent its explosion, and no harm was done. The incident was. carefully concealed, and all efforts are being made to capture the sender. There was nothing to suggest from whom it came and no clue was afforded as to the man who sent it. The machine was enclosed in a harmless -looking cigar box. An ingenious contrivance had been arranged so that when the lid of the box was opened there would be a flash of powder which would explode a stick of giant powder sufficient to blow a man to atoms. Lient. Cross, in charge of the White House police, to whom the machine was handed, discovered its nature and took precautions torender it harmless. ess. He soaked itthoroughly ozoughly in a tub of water, until the contents were satur- ated, and then opened it.
