Tem rumour le once more current that E. L. Dickinson will retire from the can. didature of Eaeb Huron. Mr. D. was iu Toronto this week conferring with the powers that be. How iu it, anyhow, that Wingham, whioh is not in the riding at all, lords it over the' free and independ• ent" of East Huron ? Hoe. C. F. Munn has been appointed Inspector of Registry Offices and also of Forestry. The combined positions will be worth to him about $3,500 a year and travelling expenses. F. B.

Mr. Fraser has vacated the Department of Public Works, and token another office in the Parliament Buildings, He takes his secretary, Mr. Wilson, as chief clerk. Hon. J. M. Gib. son is to summed Mr. Fraser as Commis- sioner of Public Works. His portifolio of Provincial Secretary will go to Mr. Harty, Kingston. THE Patrons of Industry are not mea- lymouthed about the demands they are prepared to make upon the Government. A delegation of three Patrons went to Montreal to interview the representatives of the steambeets. One of the objeote of the delegation wail to ascertain on what terms steamship owners would undertake a fast freight and cold storage line be- tween Canada and Great Britain. They wanted rates sensibly lower than Ameri. can. One of the delegates, Mr. McDon- ald, said : "If the Montreal companies, or any one of them, would give a uni- form cheap rate for say a season, they. the Patrons, would bring sufficient Pres. sure on the Government to make it sub- sidize the company or oompauies consent- ing, so as to recoup the latter for its loss.' When any class entertains the design of fleecing the public, it is not often that the avowal is made in this unblushing fashion. It is an undisguised scheme to rob the general public for the benefit of a class. Since the avowal was made a committee of Parliament has been coquet- ting with the marauders. Surely a scheme of plunder like this cannot re. ceive the sanction of Parliament.—Mon. etory Times. Ethel. S. Nichol and wife Sundayed at Bel - more.

Foster, the owner of a race horse called Dr. Rise, won the Brooklyn Han- dicap last Tuesday and pocketed big money. Footer was a former resident of Seafortb where his father is buried. The press despatches give the following report of the race :—The Brooklyn Handicap, the first big turf event of the season, was won by Dr. Rice in the fast time of 2.071. Over 40,000 persons eaw the race. It was an ideal day for the race. The track was in perfect condition. The big event was the fourth race on the card. It was nearly 5:48 when the flag fell. The horses were at the post nearly forty minutes. After several breaks a start was finally effected. it looked to be a fair one for all but Lowlander. Martin, however, did not think it was a start, and Clifford was left standing still. Thompson also began to pull up Sport just as they got the flag. MoDermott made no effort to join the field with Lowlander. He eimplycanter- ed back to the paddock. Clifford and Sport went after the others, but gave up the unequal struggle very soon. Copy- right the a tbefirst torn. gh was a Sasso ker to s He set slinking pace. Bergen made an effort to draw away from his field as they neared the far turn, but failed signally to do so. Henry of Navarre, who had been his nearest attendant all the way, moved up to him. The instant he was collared Copyright was beaten. Henry of Navarre piloted the field into the home stretch. Dr. Rice and Sir Walter, who were in easy position's and well up, as if with one accord, closed on Henry of Navarre ail Goon as they were beaded for home. A ding-dong finish then began. Taral rode Dr. Rice with the strength and energy that has made him famous. He urged him to the utmost limit of endurance. The game fellow responded to the whip and spur, and finally won a superb race by scant length. Henry of Navarre strug- gled gamely to the last gasp. He lasted long enough to beat Sir Walter half a length for the place. Sir Walter was really up to a bruising race. The pane and distance began to tell on him. He faltered at the oritical juncture. The cry that the favorite wins rent the air, when Doggett made hie effort with the courag- eous little fellow. It was premature, as Sir Walter was all out, and really bad nothing left with which to finish. Bas- setlaw, the imported horse, made a cred- itable showing. He was one of the last to leave the post and trailed until they began to negotiate the turn for home. Then he began to crawl up on the leaders. He threaded his way through the field at a great rate and finished fourth, full of running. His Snieb was the strongest of the lot, as none of the others had any- thing to :more. Comanche took ib into his head to run when ib was too late. Ajax was never once dangeroue or prom. inent. This also applies to Banquet, Blitsen, Diablo and Herald. Fred. Foe - ter, the owner of Dr. Rios, 'backed the horse heavily on the winter books. His winnings aggregate 850,000 in addition to the stake, which is worth 825,000, of which $18,000 goes to Dr. Rice.

AN' 1STI4ISs'ILNG NARRATIVE OF A GRENVILL v CO. MAN. eats Spine Injured -While Working lu the Woods—A Long and Painful. Illness Followed—Ila»•lite Regained" health and Strength. There are few readers of the Recorder who are not familiar with the fact that Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People enjoy a reputation for excellence, bout at home and abroad, nob equalled by any other proprietory mediolue. That this reputation is deserved is amply borne out by the evidence of many of the best news- papers in the country, which have care- fully investigated the most noteworthy of the cures following the use of Pink Pills, and have given the facts to their readers, with a clearness and conciseness that ad- mits of no doubt as to the truthfulness of the reports. Recently a reporter of the Recorder was informed by John A. Barr, the well known druggist, that the par- ticulars of a case quite as striking as many that have been published could be learned from Samuel Sargeanb, of Augus- ta township, who had been benefitted Most remarkably by the Pink Pill treat- ment. The reporter determined to inter- view Mr. Sargeant, and accordingly drove to his home in Augusta, about six miles from Brookville. Mr. Sargeant was found busily engaged in loading logs in the woods near his home, and although well up in the sixties was working with the vigor of a man in the prime of life, ex- hibiting no traces of the feet that he had been a great sufferer. When informed of the reporter's mission Mr. Sergeant said he could not say too much in favor of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and expressed his willingness to give the facts in con- nection with his restoration to health. "Two years ago," said Mr. Sargeant, "I went over to New York state to work in the lumber region for the Winter. One day while drawing logs one slipped and rolled on me, injuring my spine. .The pain was very severe and as I could no longer work I was brought back to my home, and was laid up for about six months, 1 suffered a great deal and seamed to be growing worse. I became badly constipated and as a result piles de- veloped which added to my misery. The various treatments did nob appear to do me any good, and ono of my neighbors advised me to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. My wife went to town and pro- cured a supply, and I had not been taking them long when I found myself growing stronger and the pain leaving me. The pills made my bowels regular again and the piles disappeared, and by the time I bad taken six boxes I found myself as well as I ever was, and able, as you see, to do a good day's work." Mr. Sargeant further said that he had been troubled with hernia for fourteen years during all which time be was forced to wear a truss. To his surprise that trouble left him and in April Last he threw away his trues and has had no occasion for it since. Mr. Sargeant declares hie full belief that this too was due to the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, but whether this is the case, or whether his release from the rupture is due to his prolonged rest as a result of his other trouble, the reporter does not pretend to say—he simply tells the story as Mr. Sargeant gave it to him. One thing is certain, Mr. Sargeant and his wife are very enthusiastic as to the merits of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Incidental- ly Mrs. Sargeant told the reporter of the great benefit Pink Pills had been to her sister, Mrs. Wm. Taylor, who lives in Essex Co., England, and who was a suf- ferer from paralysis and unable to move hand or foot, The trouble affected her stomach to such an extent that she was unable to retain food, and to stimulants alone she owed her existence for a con- siderable period. Mrs. Sargeant sent her sister a supply of Pink Pills; whioh soon shoved that she had .sooured the right modiolus, The treatment was continued' and a further oupplyof the pills mound after the company opened its London bonse, and when Mrs. Sargeant laeb beard from her sisbor elle had regained almost either strength after having been pros- trated for several years. A depraved oonclition of the blood or a shattered, nervous system Is the seoret of most file that Rigid inaukind, and by re- storing the blood and rebuilding the nerves Dr. Williams' Pink Pills strike at the root of the diesese, driving it from the system and restoring the patient to health and strength. Iu cases of pip:- alysis,spiuel troubles, locomotor ataxia, eotatiea, rheumatism, erysipelas, eorofu- lous troubles, ore., these pills aro superior to all other treatment. They are also a spooifle for the troubles whioh make the lives of so many women a burden and speedily restore the rich glow of health to sallow cheeks. Men broken clown by overwork, worry or exaeesee will find fn Pink Pills a certain cure, Beware of imitations and substitutes alleged to be "Met as good."
