—How much is a roan worth? Pos.
eibly some are worth more than
others, but write recently Judge Mid-
dleton, decided the Value of one
thumb, A young boy who was em-
ployed by a carpet firm bad one of his
thumbs mutilated while at work, and
the Judge valued the loss at $400.
If one thumb is worth that, then the
ten digits would be worth $1,000.
The whole hand ought to be worth
considerably more, and arm more
still. Then when you come to count
up the whole body, the brain and
the heart, at the same proportionate
value, a man is worth considerable
cash. But cash is not an equivalent
for a part of the wonderfully con-
structed human frame, and the
judge's estimate was quite within
bounds. That boy's thumb would
have been worth more than $400 to
him if he lived even to middle age.

—An Ottawa despatcla says that the
Government will spend fifty' thousand
dollars decorating the Senate Cham-
ber. Now that the Senate has been
"reformed," or "transformed," by
Death taking away some of the old-
time Tory chaps, and the Government
appointing worn-out Grits to fill the
vacancies, why of course, the Cham-
ber must be fixed up in good style.
A few thousand dollars should never
stand in the way of giving the old
fellows a decorated roona, in which to
orate and spread themselves—that
is when they feel able to get there.
Besides, some of them are so feeble
and get there so seldom, they must be
made comfortable while they are
there. It would never do to let the im-
portant interests of this young coun-
try suffer on account of the old gents
having cold feet, nor must dismal
looking walls be allowed to distract
their thoughts from the great issues
of the day. Some of the Senators are
no use now, and if the whole institu-
tion were blotted out, Canada, would
still live, grow and prosper. The Sen-
ate must be a very comfortable place,
for we have known some badly worn-
out politicians very anxious to have a
seat there. But just think how much
better it will be when $50,000 good
money is spent on its decorations.

On Saturday last the High School
football team journeyed to Listowel
to compete in a Hough Oup game.
They played the Listowel team in the
spring and proved most worthy op-
ponents. This fall the team was
thought to be superior to the spring
team, and great expectat,ions were
held in view. The game was called
at 245 and both teams began to work.
In the first half our boys slightly had
the advantage. Ansley made a wild
eush and kicked the ball through the
goal, over the fence, and into the
creek. The score remained 1-0 for the
rest of the firet half. In the second
half both teams set out to win, and
the game became exceedingly inter-
esting. McEwen took 1 very nice
corner and. Ansley happened to lean
against the goal post at the right time
and scored the other goal for Wing -
ham. Things looked pretty good then
and the Hough Cup appeared, lost to
the Listowel fans. But right there
luck changed for our team; besides,
the referee declared that one of our
boys had made a penalty. Listowel
scored on this, making the score 2-1.
Not many minutes later, the Listowel
boys scored another goal, making the
score a tie. It remained thus till the
finish, and Listowel boys still retain
the Hough Cup. The Wingham line-
up was as follows :—Goal, Mr, J. E.
Workman ; backs—J. Weir, D. Gale
higher; half-backs—G. Hamilton, P.
McEwen, 11. Treleaven; forwards—J.
W. Ansley, II. McCrostie, S. McKer-
cher (centre), C. McKee, J. C. Stoth-
ers. Among those who went to Listo-
wel to eneourage our boys were—Mr.
J. C. Smith, Mr. H. A. Percy, P.
Sturdy, 0. McLean, R. H. Lloyd, N.
Geddes, H. Thompson, I. Ferguson,
0. Pender, S. Elliott, Mr. B. Kerr.
—This seems to be the era of con-
solidation, mergers, combines, etc."
So far as they allow cheaper manu-
facture, reduction of expenses, etc.,
they may be right, but when they
result in combines to boost prices, and
build up colossal fortunes for a few
fortunate individuals, they are wrong.
Then realize to what extent the
movement, is going on along this line.
During the past two years, in Canada
alone, 135 individual companies have
bees amalgamated into 20 larger
firms, with a capitalization of nearly
two hundred million dollars. Nor is
the end yet, for apparently the move-
ment is only begun, for there is
scarcely a commodity, or an industry
that may not be affected, and new
schemes are constantly being planned.
It looks as though before the 20th
century is half gone, very many more
email concerns will be merged into
large companies. Will this check or
smother out private enterprise, and
result hi the enrichment of the
few and the impoverishment of the
many ? We hope not. One feature
is gratifying at least, and that is, that
the merger movement seems to aid in
the utilization of hitherto waste pro-
ducts, for never before, were skill,
science and enterprise so united in
getting out of raw materials all that
is in them.

football teams of the High School:

The Y.A1.0.A..will repeat the sacred
cantata, "Queen Esther" in the Town
hall on Friday evening, October 28th,
The rendering last year was well re-
ceived by the public, and with, the
same cast of characters, and the ex-
perience gained, there should be a fine
presentation of the Oantata, and a full
house. The tickets will be 35 cts.
and 25 cts, Watch for further an-
nouncement next week.
Former Citizen Dead,
Many will remember A. R. Smith,
formerly of this town, who conducted
a clothing and gents' furnishing store
in the Chisholm block a. few years ago,
Word has been received of his death

from pneumonia. Mr, Smith was
unmarried, and while in some things
he was rather eccentric, he was an
energetic business man, honorable
and conscientious. He was 56 years
of age. Interment took place in
Brussels cemetery. •
A most successful Harvest Festival
was held by the • congregation of St.
Paul's Church on Sunday and Mon-
day, Oct. 9,h and 10th. The Ounclay
services were conducted in a very able
and acceptable manner by Rev. C. C.
Parton, rector. of Mitchell,- who
preached in the morning from Eph.
5 : 20, and in the evening from St.
Matt. 18 : 12. The offerings were in
behalf of missions and in the .evening
the preacher referred to the call of the
Lord of the Harvest to His Church to
send forth laborers. As in the text,
the one sheep which was lost was
sought and found, so the gospel
teaches us that God does not despise
any one soul, but values all men, even
the savages of .A friea. In 1885 Bishop
Hatinington wee murdered In Uganda.
Now there, is a, flourishing church
there with a splendid Sunday School.
Our legislators are realizing that refor-
mation is the true end ci punishment.
God always aims to lift men up by
love and gentleness.
—There are indications of a world-
• wide restlessness, a stirring up of pre-
sent conditions. At present no per-
son can predict, the final result. Res -
eta is alive with dissatisfaction among
the masses; Turkey cannot long re-
main as it is; Spain is putting on new
-life; Pra,ece is broadening her home
policy; tremblings of discontent are
heard from the lower classes even in
old England; Ireland is chronic with
unrest ; aneient China, with its four
hundred millions is beginning to
emerge from its old ideas and super-
stitione, and, like a giant awaking
front sleep, will astonish the world,
even as Japan did. 'Unrest is a fea-
ture too in the United States, for
there, the trusts, the colored race pro-
blem, the increase of the divorce evil,
looaeness of law enforcement, and
graft in natiortal and municipal life,
are disturbing factors in the Social
fabric. Nations are plunging into
debt as never before to prepare for a
conflict Which they fear will come.
riven Canada, with only seven mil-
eflioes population, has been committed
by its rulers to a MOW Trolley that will
add Millions to the public debt on
which interest meet be paid annually,
besides costing millions every year to
keep up the ececalled "navy," for
Which Caned& has no earthly use.
Ont of the world'untest, may finally
come betterment of its eonclitions ;
we hope there will. Bit it is difficolt
to see how conflict Can be avoided.
Whatever form that conflict rosy
take, every good citizen Will hone that
the highest good may be the result to
the world et large.
Before The Board.
Some time ago, the Town of Wing -
ham made application for a subway
under the Grand Trunk railway
tracks, on Josephine street, for the
safety of the public. The Board of
Railway eonandssionere met in Hamil-
ton on Wednesday of this week, and
the matter was on the list for consid-
eration. Mayor Holmes and A. H.
Musgrove supported the application
in the interests of the town and public
generally. At time of closing our
forms, no word of the decision has
been received.

A few errors occurred in the prize
list published last week. None of
them were made by the Secretary,
neither were the printers to blame, but
we gladly correct them. Printers are
often public benefactors anyway, and
frequently have to correct mistakes of
others. In black or blue grapes, J.

Wm. Maxwell. Butter in crock,

Provincial Exhibit Here.
On Monday, Tuesday and Wednes-
day next, Oct. 17, 18, 19, the Provin-
cial Tuberculosis Exhibit of the Pro-
vincial Board of Health will be shown
in the Town Hall, Wingham. There
is nearly a carload in this exhibit, and
it consists of photos, specimens and
models, demonstrating , the methods
advocated and used in the prevention
and cure of the white plague, and of
appliances, models' of tents, furniture,
etc., used in carrying out the same,
and should prove of great interest and
educational value to the citizens. In
the evening lectures will be delivered
by Dr, Redmond, Dr. J. 1'. Kennedy
and other medical men. Much time
and thought is being spent on mea-
sures for the eradication of this dis-
ease, and this exhibit should attract
attention and aid the good work. •
Rural Telephone Connections.
The Brussels Post reports that the
Provincial Oommission, presided /ever
by Mr. Ingram, met at Brussels in
dealing with question of a settlement
of connections between the Brussels
and Wroxeter circuits the latter being
now operated by the Bell Co. Both
sides of the case were brisfly stated, a
few of the principal witnesses called
and examined after which the matter
was briefly discussed. The Commis-
sion adjudged the question should be
amicably solved, but if parties could
not agree an order would be made, as
there appeared to be no good reason
why connections should not be made.
On adjournment the officials of the
two circuits convened with the result
that Barrister Sinclair% was asked to
prepare cre draft agreement and ar-
rangements were made to make the
connections on the two lines.
Next Sunday will be Children's
Day in St. Paul's Church,, and the

There Was A Difference.
During the Toronto Fair week, Rev.
W. Wilkinson of that city,married
a, young couple who came from Penn-
sylvania. The groom paid him a
good fee, but last week, he wrote the
minister, sent him another fee, with
the explanation that he had got a far
better wife than he had really expect-
ed. This man wee no relation to tbe
chap who went to a minister to get
married, and after the ceremony ad-
mitted. that he had no money, but
that he would bring him a cake of
maple sugar in sugar -making time,
The time passed and no sugar came.
One day, the parson met the man and
said—"Say, what about that cake of
maple sugar you were to bring me P"
The fellow had gall to reply—"Well,
boss, to tell you the truth, she wasn't
worth it."

Mr, T. Calhoun, who lately removed
to London, has purchased Malcolm
Lamont's property in that city. Mr.
Lamont formerly resided in Wing -
ham, and may possibly return here.
Now that he has sold his property in
London, the way seems to be opening
for his return. The transfer referred
to was arranged by Ritchie & Cosens
of town.
Constable Phippen accompanied
John McLeod to Goderich on Wednes-
day, where he will sojourn for thirty
days for non-payment of the fine. In
the meantime, those dependent on
him should not be allowed to want
for necessaries of life, in a town where
many have abundance. This hint
should be sufficient to our many kind-
hearted citizens.
