Tun railway strike in Illinois and Miohigam is aeeuming vast proportions and bide fair to oross the lines into Pen- edo. unions soon settled, Sarniais already effeobed from Port Huron. Troops have been called out at various points and it fa said civil war le threatened if they flre on the strikers, A Mania invitation has been forward- ed to Hon. W. E. Gladstone to visit this country during the present Summer but it is hardly likely the Grand Old Man will accede in hie present condition of health. Outside of members of the Royal family we dont know of any person who would be more heartily welcomed than Hon. William Ewart Gladstone, Tins week the Grand Board of the Pat- rons of Industry convened ab Toronto. Judging from their utterances they pur- pose steering a middle course -a difficult task they will find -between the two par- ties, but will support the Government as long as Ms in line with the Patron's platform. The next session of the Legis- lature will be one of great interest and expectancy owing to the Patron element. The Cabinet met on Tuesday afternoon. A. GREAT many opinions have been ex- pressed since Tuesday of last week as to what majority the Mowat Administra- tion will have in the Local Legislature. The following appears to be the standing: -Liberals, 49 ; Conservatives, 27 ; Lib- eral Patrons, 7 ; Independent Patrons, 4; Conservative Patrons, 3 ; P. P. A.'s, 2. This makes 93 seats, Haldimand likely to be declared vacant through the disquali- fication of Mr. Senn. If the above figures are correct Sir Oliver would have a maj- ority of 7 supposing the Opposition could control the whole Patron vote, which is very doubtful as the Government stands a good chance of 11 of them. Before the House meets there will no doubt be a few alterations in the count that will probab- ly strengthen the Government. Ten big Prohibition Convention bas been at work in Montreal this week. The cold water army have no idea of retreat- ing but are preparing for fresh advanoes. S. A. Fisher, Brome, read the following report of the committee on political ac- tion :-"l. That this convention stands firmly by the position that in political matters they will support only known, avowed and reliable Prohibitionists. 2. That the members of thio Convention hereby agree that upon returning to their homes they will forthwith place them- selves in communication with other Pro- hibitionists in their private localities for the purpose of securing the nomination in harmony with this view of candidates for the next Dominion and Provincial election. 3. That to aid in securing the nomination and election of euoh candi- dates our friends everywhere are urged to organize prohibition clubs which will. take advantage of every opportunity and work for the carrying out of the objeote above set out. 4. Recommending that the Provincial branch of the Dominion Alliance or other workers take active steps to organize the temperance force in every constituenoy with the view to poli- tical action. 5. Recommending that in order to secure the nomination of prohi- bition candidates our friends take a more active part in political organization, so as to secure the nomination by all parties who can be depended upon to support the prohibition cause, and giving it to be understood distinctly that any other oan- didate will have our active opposition. 6. It is also recommended that where such prohibition candidate cannot be nominated by any of the political parties, our friends nominate Independent candi- dates and make special efforts to secure their election." Sin OLsvna MoweT candidly informed the Province while opening the late Prov - campaign in this city that if the people desired to have the establishment at Government House abolished they had but to send representatives pledged to effect that change and it would be done, We have watched the discussion of this matter in the various constituen- cies, more particularly in Western On- tario -the great center of Liberalism in the Dominion -and wehave noliesitation in saying that Government House main- tenance, so far as the Provinoe is concern. ed, will be at an end so soon ae the pros. eat incumbent ends his term. In no con- stituency that we know of has further grants to sustain the Lieutenant -Gover- nor's establishment at Toronto been in. domed, whereas in the overwhelming pro. portion of ridings, a decidedly adverse verdict was rendered in every public meeting where the question was broach- ed. It is by no means certain, however, that while economy will ba affected in this' particular by Sir Oliver Mowat, the. Government at Ottawa may not consider it to be its duty to pub up the money for the Lieutenant.Governor. By the terms of the Confederation r on Aabthe Dominion Government has to pay 910,00 a year ae salary to the Lieutenant•Governor of On- tario, and it may he that when the Pro. ralseeelmien vino° refuse to supply the "oxime al- lowed to thio ornamental oilielal since poufederation, theOttawa authorities will give them. This has already been done by Sir Jobe Thompson In the ease of C. IT, M8okinbosh.

In this advertisement the state- ment is made that Bonner Brothers fail- ed in New York and dragged down an honored firm. It is oleo stated that the Bonners were guilty of deceit. There will be another suit for damages against the came paper, it is said, on the same advertisement. The Anarchist soars which has become intense and widespread since the murder of President Carnot, seriously marred the splendor of the Royal pageant on the cm - canon of the opening of the Tower bridge at London Eng. Saberday. The Prin- cess of Wales and the other royal person- ages were driven turough the pity by the moat direct route and in the qulokest time possible, and were guarded by an unusual number of troops, whioh com- pletely surrounded them. Their return trip ,up the river was also stripped of much of its dignity and eplendor by the burry whioh characterized ib. So much preoaubion was taken by the authorities that they refused to divulge to the mem. ben of the press the point at which the Prince and Princess of Waite would land from the steamer, vaguely indicating that they would land'-eomewhere in the vicinity of the Rouse of Lords."

Ile was awakened by Lizzie Corrigan, who told him there was a burglar in the house.

Perth ()guilty, Andrew Hasson, jr., son of Andrew Hasson, the well known horseman, of Stratford, met with a nasty aocittent re- cently. Ile had epent Tuesday at Seb. ringville with his sister, and on the road home was thrown from the oarriags by a sadden jolt of the vehicle, and, coming into contact with one of the wheels, bad one of his ears, injured, He came home, thinking nothing of the mishap, as the wound bled very little. Iu the morning be consulted a dootor, when it was found the ear had been nearly severed from his head. The amputations submitted' to by Tim- othy Reardon, of Stratford, for the cure of senile gangrene, proved ineffectual, the sufferer passing away at the age of 63 years and 3 months. .Deceased was born in the County Henry. Ireland, and came to this country in his boyhood. He mar- ried at Hamilton when still%young man, the issue being seven children (four boys and three girls,) all of whom, with his life partner, remain to mourn his de- mise. The members of the family are Mre. Winters, Tennessee; Michael and James, in Stratford ; Mre. Hoy, wife of Conductor P. Hoy ; Mrs. Wm. Burns, Stratford ; Delia and John, at home. Mr. Reardon went to Stratford from St. Mary's about nineteen years ago, and was up to the time of his illmees an em- ployee of the G. T. R. shops. Blanshard township is all worked up over the tragio death of Davld Crawford, a respectable young farmer, and son of William Crawford, of the 8th concession of that township, a well.to•do farmer. Crawford's body was found on the G. T. R. tracks one mile east of Granton on Friday afternoon. It is supposed death took place Thursday night. The remains bore no marks, except'that the head was severed from the body. The deceased had evidently suiaided by placing' hie neck on the rails as one of the night trains came along. The rash deed seems to have been the outcome of a love affair. Crawford was enamored of a young lady named Miss Ratcliffe, the daughter of wealthy neighbors of the Crawfords, and. it is said that for e, time his attentions were received by the girl, although not favored by the family. .A week ago the young folks indulged in a lovers' quarrel, end they did not meet again until Wed- nesday evening, when young Crawford went to the home of ilia sweetheart to en- deavor to straighten out the unpleasant- ness. He was unsuccessful, however, and was even ordered away from the house by the brothers. This preyed up- on his mind, ae he left home shortly af• ' terwards. Search was made for him but without success, until his remains were found on the track, as stated. The death occurred on Tuesday of one of the oldest residents of Stratford, in the person of Elizabeth Hamilton, widow of the late Col. William Francis McCulloch, in her 82nd year. Deceased, who bas re- sided with her son-in-law, Dr. D. B. Fra- ser, for some time past, was troubled with deafness for manyyears and consequent- ly 4 ly did not appear in public except on rare occasions, She had been a resident of Stratford for about 52 years. Born in the County Tyrone, Ireland, she emi- grated early and married her late hus- band at the age of about 2L or 22, the fruits of the union beingsix sons and five ,daughters, only seven of whom survive her. The members of the family still living are John, in Stratford, Wm., in British Columbia, H. H., in the P. 0. Department at Calgary, N. W. T., Mar- garet, widow of the late Alex. Grant, of Missouri ; Mrs. Wro. Gordon, Stretford ; Mrs. O'Higgins, of Manitoba, and Mre. D. B. ,Fraser, Stratford. Besides her husband, who died in Sept., 1870, three sons and one daughter preceded her to the pity of the dead. At one time her h'isband owned something like 600 sores of land in the heart of what now consti- tutes the city of Stratford, including the site of the present Gordon block and much of the land fronting on the leading thoroughfares. Mrs: McCulloch's funeral took place Wednesday afternoon. A Northwest Miracle. TI[E UN12UP EXPERIENCE o&v SIRS. GE0. COLLI!SON 0E PRINCE ALBERT.

Mrs. George Collison is a well known and esteemed resident of Prince Albert, N. W. T. This lady has load a remark- able, experience, having almost entered the valley of death when. the timely use of Dr. 'Williams' Pink Pills restored her to health and strength, and she now re- lates her marvellous story for the benefit of suffering humanity. We cannot do better than give Mfrs, Collison's story in her own words. She says :-"We for- merly lived. in Carberry, Man., where I lay ill for a year and a half. My cess was pronounced. hopeless by all the doobors there, and they agreed that I had not long to live, and m fact I had little hope of recovery myself. The doctors stated that my trouble was consumption, and when they said they could do nothing for me I determined to go to my old home at Tara, Ont, and see if the doctors there could help mo I remained there' for throe monbhs, and returned home not any improved. 1 wa so weak 1 could scarce- ly walk across a oom, and when I coach- ed Carberry Iiwa forced to take my bed and at times was so woak I could not tllru myself in bed. Icor some months .I was troubled with ohronie diarrhoea and ow rebnruhag 1tonlo I palled in anothor slovtor who had lamb boated there. He olisolsed the diarrhoea, but held out no holes of my r000vory. Tbie daetor stated that not only were my lunge in it very bad eon. dltion, but that abseeeses had formed. I suffered from the weakening effeebs of night awoats, and had alternate pilule and fevers, Then my trouble became aggra- vated by the cords in mylegs drawing up to silo extent that it was impossible for me' to straighten them. I. was bandaged from any chest to my ankles, and any feet and hands would swell terribly, I had severe pains about the heart and coughed so much that 'l thought the end was coming fast, when my minister called one day i bold him I would like to try Dr, Williams' Pink P1115, but ae other meal. oinea had failed ane I feared they might too. He told me to remember that we meet do all we could to 0reseve Ws, and perhaps God would bless Pink Pills to the benefit of my health. I then begin bo rs• vivo somewhat and there was an improve. moat in my appetite. After using Pink Pills for about a month I could err up, and in four months from the time I began using them I could do my own work, and T awn as strong, and 1 firmly believe healthier, than I ever was before. After I began the use. of Pink Pills I took no other mnedioine, but took with them oo- casioually juice of lemon aid crushed sugar. It is a pleasure for hie to Speak strongly of the medicine which, with God's blessing, saved my life, and y0it are at liberty to give my experience the widest eii'eltlation, as it may he the raceme of benefitting some other dispelling sufferer. My husband joins his grateful thanks with mine, and we both feel justified in saying that Dr. 'Williams' Pink Pills are a marvel among medicines." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills furnish in a condensed form the constituentenecessary to give new life and richness to the blood, assisting it to absorb oxygen, the great sustainer of organic life. By this means this great remedy strikes ab the root of disease, speedily driving it from the sys- tem, restoring the patient to full health and strength. Most diseases afflicting mankind have their origin in an impover- ished condition of the blood, or a abetter - ed nervous system, and acting directly upon these Pink Pills are a specific for all snob. troubles. Thousands of grateful people testify to the benefits they Have derived from the use of Pink Pills, and no other medicine has ever published such strong and carefully authenticated evi- dence vidence of merit. If in need of medicine do. not be pursuaded to try anything else, but insist upon getting Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.
