At the moment when the Government majority in the Privileges Commit- tee eefusedto hear further evidenee nine witnesses who had been brought fvom Goderich at a cost of $400 were waiting ia the corridor to be called. Mr. Borden, wha was conducting the inquiry asked to be allowed loalf an hour to examine these witnesses offer- ing to take that evening or the next day or any time that -was con-venient to the Government. The request was refused and. the West Hurou men were seat b.ome without giving testimony. While however the case was not com- pleted, enough has been proved to show that gross irregularities occur- red in all parts of the riding, while serious crimes were committed in at least three polls as was shownlast week -when Returning Officer Farr, who held the poll at number two polling district in Goderich, stated. to the poll clerk that the box contained "thirteen damned good ballots for Holmes."

The grained, seed and other necessaries are furnished free to Londoners who care to expend the labor required to secure a crop. The patches this year cover twelve acres. One is at the north end of Colborne street; the other lies immediately at, the foot of Carling's heiglots. Each patch is divided into one.quarter acre strips, or thereabouts, and there are some for- ty-five divisions, each worked by sep- arate farailies. The tubers belie been well tilled and are free from weeds. Here ancl there a few cabbages, beets or other vegetables have been grown. The land is given free to the Charity Organization, the donors, Ed. Daly, and the Shoebottom estate, paying even the taxes.

Mme, Labor' found the pockets completely emptied. Luckily, no papers of import- ance wete in the pockets, which contain- ed personal letters, including menacing letters received on the previous day. The rifling of the lawyer's pockets of the papers, and the attempt to steal his wal- let, while no effort was made to appro- priate his watch or money, are regarded as dear evidence of a plot, in which sev- eral men were implicated.

County, resicleS a lady who gives Meth praise to the curative power of Dr. Pink Pills. The subject a this testimony is Mrs. Richard Hanna,an estimable lady who has resided in. that locality for many years. A reporter seeking an inter- view with Mrs. Hanna found her willing to give full details, which are given in ber own words. .Flye years ago I was taken ill. I attributed the trouble et the time to an injury sus- tained by wren. Time went on and did not get better. The synaptoms of my complaint were palpitatiou of the heart, extreme weaknese, stomach troubles and terrible head.aches. I was very nervous, had no appetite and ex- perienced much wakefulness at eight. Finally 1 was compelled .to take to my bed, being too weak to sit up any longer. In this condition I was treat- ed at different times by three doctors. and took a great quautity of medicine bdit, realized no benefit. Not one of my neighbors thought I would. get well. In the meantime I thonght myself that death would soon end my tefferings. One day Mrs. Sroitleof Port Robinson, came to see me and peesuaded my bus - band to procure for me some of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and he purchas- ed six boxes; After taking the six boxes I had improved very much and was able to up, tbough yet too weak to walk. I sent for another six boxes and as a result consider my cure com- plete. I can relish food better, sleep soundly, a,nd stand. more fatigue than I count for years previous. .although I have passed the meridian' of life I feel as healthy as -when I was in my twenties. With great pleasure and a .grateful heart I treye this testimony. The public is cautioned against num- erous pink colored imitations of these famous pills. The genuine are sold only in boxes, the wrapper around which bears the words "Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People."
