David Walker, of Regina, was here on a short visit to the parental home. This is a business trip. Miss Moses was supplying the place of Miss McLelland, of Ethel, at the Ramsey school, 1?4e miles West of Jamestown. The roof was blown off Alex. Cloak- ey's and Jas. Granby's barns; metallic shingles from Jas. Clark's barn roof and Robt. Young's house got a "biff." We are sorry to state that Mrs. S.

The funeral took place on Monday afternoon from the residence of Mrs. John Craig to the Donnybrook cemetery. IiINLOSS. The home of Mr. and Mrs. Peter Mc- Intosh, 4th con. Kinloss, was the scene of a quiet but pretty wedding on Wed- desday, April 2nd, at 11 a.m., when their second eldest daughter, Nina F. was united in marriage to Walter A. Rowand of Walkerton. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. F. A. Mac- Lennan. The bride, who was given away by her father, looked charming in a gown of white silk voile trimmed with real lace and satin rose buds and carried a boquet of white roses and maiden hair fern. Little Miss Ruth, sister of the bride acted as flower girl. The wedding march was beautifully rendeded by Miss Mae 'MacMorran of Lucknow. After the ceremony a dainty wedding dinner was served to the guests numbering about forty. The bride and groom were the recipients of many valuable presents. They left on the afternoon train for Brampton 'and other points. The bride wore a smart, tailored suit and large black hat. On their return they will reside at their home in Walkerton. itLTTH. The W. C. T. U. held a very pleasant eV,,ening in 'the Methodist Church on Thursday, when a number of splendid essays were read by the contestants on the subject, "The Evils of Tobacco on the Human System, Physically, Mental- ly and Morally." Prizes were awarded to the success- ful competitors. The members of St. George's Club held a very succcessful "at home" in their clubrooms on Friday evening, and although the evening was wet and the roads muddy, there was a large gather- ing. A number from the surrounding villages attended. Mr. John Weymouth, who left here a few months ago for Brussels with his family, has decided to return and take his old position in Mr. Lux Hill's plan- ing mill. The Oddfellows' degree teams are at present busily engaged practicing for next Thursday evening, when they will go to Brussels to exemplify the first and second degrees on some of the brethren there. Mrs. James Logan, an elderly woman who resides with her son here, was so seriously burned when a coaloil lamp she was carrying exploded, that the chances are against her recovery. Mrs, Logan was alone at the time of the ac- cident, and her hands, face and arms were covered with burning oil. Only by the most desperate efforts was she able to prevent her clothes being burn- ed. After beating the flames out she had to find and strike matches to find her way to the telephone to call a phy- sician, and she lay on the floor in a help- less condition until he arrived. Mrs. Logan's burns are of the most painful nature, and it is feared that complica- tions may develop, such as blood -pois- oning, which will militate againat her recovery.. Last Tuesday James and) Miss Bella Botz, well known residents of the 11th concession, left for Portage -la -Prairie, Man., one of the points they will visit in their trip to the West. Mr. I3otz's farm has been leased by James Dickson for a year. This place was taken up by the late Philip Botz nearly 60 years ago and this is the first time anybody outside of a member of the family has worked it. Farm is nearly all seeded down. We wish Mr. and Miss Botz an enjoyal/i stay in the West. Wednesday evening, April 20, was the scene of a bretty wedding at 5 p. m., when Rev, D. Wren, M. A., tied the matrimonial bow between Norman Mc- Leod, a prosperous young farmer, of Ripley and Miss Eliza J., eldest daugh- ter of S. and Mrs. Burke, at the paren- tal home, East of Jamestown. As the wedding march was played by Miss Mary Smith, the principals took their places under an evergreen arch in the parlor for the ceremony, the bride being given away by her father, which was witnessed by the immediate rela- tives of the contrasting parties. They were unattended. The bride wore a becoming custome of navy blue lady's cloth with white net waist over white silk. After congratulations the com- pany sat down to a spread of goo,' things prepared in the best style of the hostess. The wedding gifts were numerous, useful and valuable, includin a sum of money. Mr. and Mrs. McLeod left for Ripley on Thursday, a reception being held at the groom's parental home Friday evening when about 150 guests assembled. The young couple will reside on the groom's farm, 8th con., Huron township, near Ripley. TURN GEREY Trinity Church, Durham, was the scene of a pretty wedding at high noon on Wednesday, April 2nd, when the marriage was solemnized of Miss Cath- arine D. Barton, of Toronto, to Janes J. McEwen, of Goderich. The bride is a half sister of Rev. W. H. Hartley, Rector of Trinity church, who perform- ed the ceremony. Miss Sarah Vollet presided at the organ and the choir of the church also assisted in the singing of the hymn, "The voice that breathed o'er Eden," and "The Deus Miserea- tur." The bride, who was given away by her brother, Joseph A. Barton, was handsomely gowned in white satin draped with uinon with pearl trim - things. She wore a bridal veil with wreath of orange blossoms and carried a white prayer book. Miss Jessie W; Barton, sister of the bride, acted as bridesmaid and wore pale blue satin drapped with ninon, a rid trimmed with small pink rosebuds, and a black hat. She also wore a beautiful pearl neck- lace and pendant the gift of the groom, and carried a boquet of pink roses. The groom's gift to the bride was a ring set with five pearl.. After the cere- mony the bridal party/was, entertained at the Rectory for a few: hours,, when they left by C. P. R. for Toronto, Ot- tawa and Montreal. They will also visit John Hartley, half-brother of the bride, principal of the Bi -lingual Model school at Vankleek Hill. Mr. and Mrs. McEwen will settle in their home at Goderich, after a trip of:some ten days. Minutes of meeting of Council held in Bluevale, Monday, April 7th. Members all present, Reeve in the chair.

One of Its Quaintest Spectacles is a Native Wedding. However Inoderuized Cairo is or will become, says a writer in the ]Wide World Magazine, innil Egypt remains the same today as it has been for countless generations. One or the quaintest sights out in the country is a native wedding. I was tottuna te in seeing two of them, one from a train and the other while walking near the village of Heliopolis, which is the site of the ancient city of un, Mentioned In the Bible, The bride and bridegroom were com- pletely screened fium the public gaze by a canopied erruugetueut un toe back of a camel.

'This camel was followed by the bridal par. ty, all women, seated on a long tram of camels, each camel supporting two women. The great, clumsy creatures (the earn. els, not the women) were almost en- veloped in Immense rugs, on the top of which apparently a feather bed had been deposited, and on this the woolen squatted, giving vent every few mo• ments to a prolonged shrill trill, which I gathered was intended for a festive song. Altogether the incongruity of the spectacle was exceedingly comical. INGENIOUS PRISONERS. They Won a Pardon For Their Daring Attempt to Escape. Among the prisoners in the French convict settlement of New Caledonia were two marine engineers who not long ago 'received a pardon -strange as it may seem -for making a daring and ingenious attempt to escape. Living together in the same hut these men were engaged for years in digging a secret tunnel from their but to the beach. At the end of the tunnel they hollowed out a chamber in which, with pieces of driftwood and little bits of steel and iron smuggled into the hut, they fashioned a boat, the metal being at first used to make tools and afterward to form bolts and rivets. Then with infinite pains they built an engine to propel the boat, and after laboring mightily for seven years they completed their task. Everything was ready except the provisioning of the vessel, when they were betrayed by a fellow convict to whom they had confided their plan. But so impressed was the French com- mandant by their marvelous energy, skill and patience that be managed after a year to obtain a pardon for them.-Pearsou's Weekly. Perhaps She Was Skeptical.
