Bog 01es in Essex grad Bent. The bog ore of Essex is attracting the atteution of iron men.' This ore, sage the Amberstburg Echo, has been known to exist in the bottom of the creeks and marshes for years, and 40 or 00 years ago was teamed to Lha oldfur:aces at Olinda: and made into iron. Shoves are still in existence made from iron from the Olin. da furnace, Last week Mr. Edgar, of the Hamilton Smelting Works, shipped a carload from Barrow to that oity. It was dug from the property of Daniel Johnson and Hiram Rosebrugh, in Har- row. The company pays 10 cents a ton for the ore, and pays for handling. Beds have been struck while constructing drains on the farms of John Little, John McDonald and Henry Walters (the old IOobt. Tbompeon farm, lot 9, iu the gore), Sqnire Richmond says that while boring wells on his farm beds of iron ore have been struck. The ore is used by the Hamilton Smelting Works to mix with the other ores. Several thousands oft tons have been taken out of Norfolk County, and large quantities are being shipped from Sent County, near Ridge - town. During the past week Wm. Fox, the well-known Rulbven sand shipper, accompanied by Mr. Webster, who repro- sente a large American firm, have been visiting the farm in Gosfield and Col. attester South, where bog ore is known to exist, to secure options for the privilege of taking the ore. If it can be found to sufficient•quantities the company propos- es to put in a 026,000 plant at a oon- venient point in the county to treat the ore. They propose to pay a stated price per ton and not select 7t, but take both bog and shot ore. If they can secure a sufficient guantity, works will be put up at once. It is well knows that largo quantities of this ore exists about Olinda, bot it will need considerable prospecting of the marsh lands in Co!oheeter, where large beds are believed to exist. TUE COURSE OF TRUE LOVE. The Toronto World says :.-The love affairs of Julia Card, of Goderiah, have iced many crosses. Thursday night of last week Elijah E. Kidd, to whom Julia claims the i8 married, Was arre8tedat the Scott Rouse, adjoining the police station, Windsor, on the charge of embezzlement. The oomplafnant is Wilmer Smith, of Goderiah. He bought 000 potato peelers front Kidd and paid him 000 for the patent right in Huron County. Kidd's enterprise led him to sell the same right to about twenty others in Huron County. He has been travelling through Western Ontario and is supposed to have worked the same game in many planes. Julia is 17 years of age, pretty, vivaofous, very sentimental, and was pleased with the romance of an elopement with a person leading a life like Kidd's. JIILIA'8 8TOIty. She tells the way she first met him. "I was alone in my father's merchant tailoring store. Elijah came in and as soon as his bright black eyes met mine 1 seemed to feel a strange sensation. He said he wanted to buy a necktie. While .I wan showing them to him he seemed to be looking at me more than at the ties. At last I said: "Oh, you don't want ties at all. "Yes I do," be said. He bought two for 25o. each. While I was wrapping them up he said : "Where are the best places to take a drive around here Mies--?" "Miss Card," I added, "or just call me Jule." Then I said ' "Oh you get a horse and rig and ,you will find girls willing to show you a good place to take a drive." Of course I meant other gine arounol town but be didn't tape it that way and asked me if I would go. I went." The patent right purchasers compared notes and Smith had Kidd arrested for getting money under false pretences. Tom Tilt and M. Polley gave bail for 0200 at the request of Julia, who was a general favorite in. town. Kidd went to Owen Sound, Blyth and Walkerton while out on ball. In each piece Ile was ar. rested, but was released when it was known Ito had been bailed. A 1008 0P Ouratiro. Julia loft her father-. Levi Card, who is fairly wealthy, and went to Kill in London. They made a tour of Ontario West of London. Chief Willie got a description of Kidd and located him. Kidd made a hard fight to keep one letter from the police. It was from N. Le. warne, 18 Stafford street, Toronto. It referred to a child there, of which Kidd was mentioned as the father and spoke of He mother, who is living in Toronto. It seeused Kidd of not having prows dud for the obild and threatened to have a de. teotive after him if the didn't do better. Kidd was asked if he had a wife in To- ronto, 'II will give you my life if I have a wife in Toronto, I am married to Julia." Neither he nor Julia would say where they were married or when, w0Ar Mild)/ Loons WEE. 111111 is 6 feet 0 inches high, blank hair, small black mustache, )seen black eyes, low forehead, dressed in dark ready. inede olothee and is not prepossessing, Jalia'e Ifather "came for her and Kidd was taken,! to .1 Goderioh.

To add to this that eeotion is threatened with a coal' famine. Stoolx losses on the northern and west- ern ranges in Dakota are vary heavy, but no sufferings among the settlers is yet reported. The 'storm lasted 40 hours and was one of the most severe experi- enced since the settlement of the country. Il The Ines to stock aggregated hundreds. A coat of ion covers the ground, and snow is in some plans piled in drifts P3 feet high. On the ranges west of the Missouri the worst is feared for stook, as it is believed it would be impseeible for cattle and steep to get enough, to eat until it thaws. The temperrture is 200 below zero and below' zero at all •points in Dakota. In many instances trees a foot in diameter were snapped off at the bottom. An utterly demoralized con- dition prevails everywhere. Pierre, S. D., reports travel of all kinds oompietoly stopped. Reports Dome in from the country showing there has been serious stook losses on the ranges. It will be several days before anything definite can be learned from the cattle country to the west. At Huron, S. D., snow is piling in drifts as high as ince tope. Rain and sleet prevailed severed hours before the snow set in. A Few Public School Questions. DEAR Sm.—Seine questions of general iutereet affecting Public School work have been sent to me from several parts of the county. (1) Must a teacher teach Fifth class work ? The law provides that "it shall be the duty of every teacher of a public sohool to teach diligently and faithfully all the subjects reqnired to be taught in the sohool." "The course of study for the Public schools shall be taken op in five forms, etc." The curriculum must be followed; even if there is bub one pupil prepared to take up Fifth clues subjects. If from the peculiar circumstances of the locality, some modifies -goo of the work of this class is necessary, the concurrence of both the Trustee Board and Inspector must be secured before it may be made. If the teaoher of a sohool where there is suob a class cannot do the work, a resig. nation will be in order. (2) Hasa parent a right to say that his child shall pursue only certain ecbjeate 2 No. Public interest demands close olaseiloation. The subjects of the curri. onlum may be divided into information, disoiplinary andculture subjects, ail of which are needed for true development. If any ere omitted there will be one -aided development. Ia ease of siakneee, phy. eioal infirmity, etc., common sense will dictate the course to be pursued. (8) What is the legal time for opening school ? The following quotations from the reg- ulations answer this question. "In rural schools the hours shall be from nine o'clock in the forenoon till four o'clock in the afternoon, but the Trustees by reso- lution, may, for the purpose of affording facilities for religions instructions or for any other proper purpose, presoribe a shorter period." "In Pities, towns and incorporated villages, the Trustees ma , by resolution, order that any Public sohool under their charge shall be opened at half past nine in the forenoon and close at half past three in the afternoon with a recess from twelve to half past one." It is clear that although Trustees may aeonraoy and lltwfnloees of the aeoounte of the oentten and attbmit a full report thereon at the next annual sohool meet. ipg, It is not sallioient for eudibot's to add up the debit and the credit Bides of the a000unt and strike a balanus.

A petition having on it five names from eaoh municipality, ooneerued most be sent to each onutliotpal oouncil by whoa] arbitrators may be appointed, who with the Inspector and in certain 00.880 the County Judge added shall determine the matter. (0) When should two teachers be etn' ployed in a sohool? When the work is too mush for one 20aoher, which is always the ease when the average attendance roadies 00 and a Fifth doss has to be taught. (10) 111uy . a teacher who : has a Fifth plass keep obildreu after four o'clock to overtake work? Legally, no, In justice to himself and the pupils, no. (11) May Trneteee arrange with to teaoher to do tbe worst in this way ? No, The law states distiuotly that sohool shall continue no longer than from 9 a. ni. to 4 p. M. with at least an hour for intermieeion at noon, etc. Issreoron 1MTax:vane, Essex Co. Lt,e t,o W e 1. A. Molntosh who wits with T. H.

Word was received here that Mrs. John Elder had died of typhoid fever at the home of her son Clark, in Superior City, Minn. Deceased was keeping house for her son, but was taken ill some weolte ago, and her death was a shook to the people of Wingham, a great majority of whom had not even heard of her illness. Mrs. Elder was nn active member of the Methodist church ; was prominent in W. 0. T. V. and in the Daughters of Rebek- ah.

Ayer's Pills, being composed of the es- sential virtues of the best vegetable aperients, without any of the woody or fiboroue material whatever, is the reason shorten the period of sohool work they ' why they are so much more effective and are not at liberty to change the time of opening sahool.or the particular moment of the day from which duration may be counted. It is, however,' customary to make a sohool time the satne ae the neighborhood time, bat no person has authority to order such an arrangement.
