World's Fair. Chief Clark Blackman, of the admin- istrations and collections department, figures that the profits of the concession• sires will aggregate $4,000,000 after de• ducting the percentage to the exposition. This represents about 20 per cent. of the panes will pay The a profit of 52 0,000erris , after Com- pany 80,000 for cost and 50 per cent. of the receipts paid to the fair after that amount was taken in. The fate of the Ferris wheel is not decided. It has been stated that it was to be put up at Cape May or Coney Island, but neither statement is correct. It would be sent to the Antwerp Exposition, but it is too heavy. The wheel has carried more than 1,000,000 people at 50 cents each, and recently carried 45,000 in one day. The Turkish village will run as long as there is any money in it, and then Man. ager Levy will tear it down and take his people back to Constantinople. The Gorman village closed with the fair, and its two military bands will start immediately upon a tour of the country. The buildings of the village may be taken down and set np at Ooney Island. Manager Schmidt is thinking about it. Old Vienna may run for a little while after the fair olosee if the weather is good. Manager Weiesberger may ship his buildings, like those of the German village, to the east. The big band will make a tour of the eastern cities. The ostrich farm will betaken to San Francisco for the midwinter fair. The Lapland village and the the railway also will go there. The Algerians are already pecking np for their departure. They go home by way of Paris and will show there for some time. The moat profitable concessions on the Plaisance (after the Ferris wlieel) have been the street in Cairo, the South Sea Island village, the German village, Old Vienna, the ostrich farm and the beauty show. From turret, dome and sphere of the White City's patens hang the emblems of nations at mourning height on this, Oct. 80011, the dying day of the World's Columbian Exposition. The people on looking towards the sunlit gamy of blue realized that not only Chicago mourned, but the whole world of humanity, as represented at the Exposition. They -tame on in much smaller numbers than was expected at sunset Saturday and they found no evidences of rejoicing over the crowning aohievemeut of the age. No sounds of sweet music in the Court of Honor ; no merry throngs, no celebra- tion—only a solemn stillness, an unpar. alleled tribute to thememory of Chicago's dead, or ono of sympathy for the loss of a loving father, an illustrious, faithful citizen ant chosen chief of a million and a half of people. The multitude laid their tribute of respect on the bier of the assassin's viotitn and eulogized the dead in eloquent speech. The greatest Ex- position the world has ever witnessed died in the same gloom and silence which pervaded the home of the afflicted family and the city whioh loved and honored him, wad was slain fur no cause. Even the noisy Midway Plaint= was quieter than usual. The voice of the feta criers who stood outside the resorts in the chilly air was more subdued, and the patrons in the street seemed to share in the enamel sorrow. In the g Administ •to . tion Offices the chief men of the Fair re. turned to their desks with saddened hearts, and a gloom hung over all. At 11 o'clock the committee of twelve, which was chosen to draft the resolutions whioh were read to the people in Eesti• val Hall, met in Pres. Higinbothaln's office. The resolutions expressed at some length and in the most sympathetic language' at the Commiesionere tom. mend the general sorrow and shook whioh the tragic end of the World's Fair city's 011101 Magistrate created in the hearts and minds of the National Com• miesioners,foreign and State reprosenta• Hyatt, the Board of Lady IManngers, exhi. biters, directors and executive officers of the Exposition. One set of resolutions was presented by President Higinbotham on behalf of the Board of Direotors, and another by Oommiesioner Massey, of Delaware, for the National Commission. Rev. John Henry Borrows, pastor of the Fourth Presbyterian Church, deliver- ed the prayer with which the funeral gathering, as it really was, began. The invocation n lntained a fueling reference to the tragedy which had turned the fare- well ceremonies into a mourning meeting and appealed to the Throne of Grace on behalf of the grief-stricken family. Following this sad opening, which brought tears from the eyes of many thousands gathered in the groat hall, came the formal anuouuoement by Presi- dent Palmer, of tiro Mayor's death, ands, statement that all exeroises of a festive charaoter.would be omitted. The resolutions were then presented withoutany accompanying epeeoit, al. though many eloquent orators were pre. sent. The foreign and Amerionn repre- sentatives, as well as the governing bodies of the Exposition who were seate on the platform and were in the body' of the hall, showed, by rising in response to the request of President Palmer, that the reoolutione VOieed the sorrow and syn;• pathy of all the world, because the World was represented there. President Palmer then formally au• nounoed that la ooniplianoe with the aot of Oongreee the Exposition was olboially at an end as a World's Exposition. After Rev, Dr. Barrows had pronounc- ed the benediction and offered up a abort prayer, the assemblage quietly dispersed. The World's Fair, like Oarter IIatri- SOn, was 170 more, ]E'ordwicla. The brass band has added two more iuetrumeots to their number, now having fourteen. The Preston farts has been purabaeed by Mr. Shearer, teacher of Orange Hill school, the price paid being $6,850. Tuesday night of Iaeb week being Hallowe'en some of the boys played some petty trioks in the village by taking off gates and turning up some of the side. Walk. It is rumored that another tinshop is to be started iu Gerrie. A. boar passed through Strong's swamp, marring eastward, last week. Wm. Ashton, of the 0111 con., Howiolt, has purchased the Phair fair, just east of here, for 117,300. Mr. Dane's new dam is about oom- plated and is without exception the beet dam ever built here. Jos. Hunt hoe purchased Jas. Young's property in this village and the latter will shortly remove to London. In the cheese oompetition at the World's Fair Albert Milken, of the Gor. rie faotory, made 974 points out of a possible 100. N. McLaughlin has purchased a new ".Raleigh" bicycle, supposed by wheel - men. to be the best wheel made in Eng- land. The price of the machine is 5105 and its weight is 80 lbs. E3xetor. Several of the young men of town en- joyed themselves Hallowe'en night, coo• eequently a number of gates and out- houses were deranged. Rich. Manning who has been in a low state of health for a long time, was taken worse last week, causing his friends and relatives much anxiety. The old mill dam, which was badly damaged by the repent burning of the mill, is now undergoing repairs. The proprietor, Jae. Howard, signifiee his in- tention of utilizing the water power in connection thereto shortly and will establish a mill for chopping grain or for some other purpose.

Dickson, of To. ronto, a000mpanied by Travelling Pas. ganger Agent Graves, of London, and were shown around town. The visitors were much pleased with the location of the town and stated that with the natural advantages possessed by Gode- rich there was no reason ruby the town should not take its place in the front rank as a summer resort. They said that if the townspeople and country would fit up the park and add attractions and conveniences for excursion parties they would see to it that Goderieh would do a bigger excursion business than it had been doing up to date. The visitors interviewed a number of the leading men of the town whilst here in an endeavor to obtain a consensus of; opinion on the feasibility of encouraging summer ex. oursions to oome hither.

OuNanolty Meeting.—A meeting of the patrons and shareholders was held in the Winthrop factory on the 25111 alt., when the auditors' report was read which showed 580,925 pounds of milk delivered in 120 days, for which 5$,044.54 was paid for the cream, and $108 for what shim milk was left at the faotory. All parties were well satisfied with the returns they reooived, and with the skim milk that was returned ; it kept sweet as long as' required. All were in favor of contin- uing the creamery, as it was more profit. able than cheese when the milk was re- turned. Another meeting will be held during the winter, when prioee will be ar- ranged, Mr. Hannan being willing to pay the sa e' rice m s as cheese factories if e the n directors could arrange the Lerma. The patrons present were in favor of not al- lowing any patrons to give milk during the warm weather and then stopping, as it is not fair to the mannfaotnrere and other patrons. Clinton. W. II.

Some very singular things happen in this world, and the following is one of them. Andrew MoGarva, eon of John MoGarva, of this town, is a sealer, with headquarters at Violoria, B. C. Last Summer the vessel on which he is en- gaged put into one of the small Hiwaian Islands for supplies. Mr. McGarva con- cluded to go ashore while the vessel was waiting, and as he was walking about the place, he was more than astonished and pleased to meet, in that out of-the•way epot, another Clinton boy, Alex. Buchan- an, (son of Donald Buchanan) who is running a saw mill and sugar plantation out there. While Thos. Tipling, baggageman, was engaged in coupling Dare at the station, he had his arm badly crushed between two drnwheads.It is not known whether his arm is broken or not, but the muscles are badly torn.

Maodonald, of Stratford, left last week to take charge of the Sudbury hospital. It is with feelings of deep sorrow that we learn that John E. Davis, one of the proprietors of the Mitchell Advocate, passed away Thursday morning at the comparatively early 'age of 55 years. Deceased bad been w foiling health for years and lately was attacked with ty- phoid fever, which soon put a period to his existence. Mr. Davis woo a native of Kilkenny, Ireland, and mune to Canada when quite yuang. Over a quarter of a century ago, he, with his brother, Wm. R., started the Mitchell Advocate and it was largely owing to the push and energy of the deceased, in working up the out. side business, that the paper became a commercial success. Mr. Davis was web known throughout this Western portion of the province and had the repu- tation of being one of the best canvassers on the road. In politics he was an un- compromising Conservative. He was a life long member of the Church of Eng. land, He leaves a family of three sons and three daughters, as web as a loving partner in life, to mourn a loss that can never be replaced. He left his family well provided for. He had the reputa- tion of being one of the wealthiest met. in Mitchell. His funeral took place Friday at 5 p. m.
