TUE Patrons of Weet Wellington have
nominated James Tucker asoandidate for
the seat in the Legislative Assembly va-
cated by George Tucker being unseated
and disqualified.
Tnonsair, December 12th, is the date
fixed for the bye•election in North On-
tario for the Commons. Mr. Gillespie
is the Liberal candidate. The Conserve.
tive standard bearer is not yet in the
held. What about West Huron election?
Tire Ontario Department of Agtioul-
tare is engaged collecting the agricultural
manufactures of Ontario for exhibition in
the Imperial Institute, London, Eng,
The collection will consist of native wines
from prominent growers ; oanned fruits,
in ordinary trade tins ; honey in the
comb and strained, besides many other
artioles. Thr exhibit will doubtless draw
the attention of British buyers to Cana-
dian markets and is a further proof of the
practical work being done by the Ontario
Government.
Tim special committee appointed to
choose a site for the county House of
Refuge, in Lambton County, have select-
ed three of the various sites proposed,
and they will be presented to the council
at the December session. It is impos•
Bible to ascertain the location of the sites
favored by the committee. Although it
is not known what site will ultimately be
chosen for the House of Refuge, it is safe
to predict that the Lowrie farm, at the
outskirts of Sarnia, on the London read,
will be the choice of the council. At all
events the committee favor that site. It's
time Bruce and Perth counties got amove
on or they will be relegated to the tail
end of the procession.
Qum a noteworthy experience has
been the lot of the residents of the town-
ship of Low, Quebec Province. They re-
fused to pay arrears of taxes due the
County and when bailiffs went to seize
to enforce the law the ratepayers raised a
mob and dared the officials to proceed.
The military was called out from Ottawa,
both horse and foot going by special train
to the disaffected section. This bad the
desired effect and the taxes are now being
handed over. Their little exploit has cost
them over 50,000 for the unsolicited par-
ade of the soldier boys, an amount ex-
ceeding the total taxes they were kicking
about. The management of Low munici-
pal affairs will now be vested in a Com-
mittee of seven men chosen at a mass
meeting held by the residents. Experi-
ence is a wise teacher, but the fellows
who dance have usually to pay the mnsi•
dans.
Patsy Casey is Rend.
Patsy Casey, of East Bridgeport, of
whom so much has been heard lately, on
account of his abnormal growth, is dead.
Patsy, as he was known, in August last
was only five feet in height, but in two
months he grew fifteen inobes, bringing
his height up to six feet three inches.
His growth seemed to 'cause a general
break -down of the system. His appetite
was ravenous and he could not supply the
demands of a frame growing at suoh a
rate. A month before death Patsy lost
his speech. The physicians who studied
the case of this astonishing growing boy,
however, were more puzzled by the un-
evenness of his growth than by the sur-
prising rate of the growth itself. ' Pet-
rick grew faster upon one side of his body
than on the other. The most surprising
and unaccountable feature of this strange
ease was that, a short time previous to
his death, Patriots Galley's hair turned
from red to black. Where it had been of
an auburn tint it became as black as a
raven's wing. It was jet black at the
time of bis death. After death the hair
grew at an astonishing rate and the phy-
sicians wished the body kept to study it
in the interests of science, but the
parents objected.
One hundred men from the Ottawa
Garrison were sent out to Low Township
on Sunday. Twenty rounde of ammuni-
tion was served out to eaoh man. The
display of an armed force had an im.
mediate effect on the delinquent tax pay.
ere anile conference was immediately
suggested.
Friday afternoon the body of ttfiss
Elizabeth Clash, of Stratford, was found
in her room over Dutton's drug store, in
an advanced state of decomposition. The
position of the body seemed to indicate
that she had been taken suddenly ill and
fallen to the floor, and from its condition'
it is surmised that death most have tak-
en -place three or four weeks ago. She
was upwards of seventy years of age and
lived alone. The neighbors had missed
her, but presumed ebe was visiting a
relative in a neighboring town. After
viewing the 'remains Coroner Rankin
considered an inquest nnneoessary.
