When he went to put on his vest he found his watch, a silver one, missing. The whereabouts of the missing property is pretty well located and an example will probably be made of the offender unless the watob is returned. TOURNAMENT. -It was cieaided at the Committee meeting last Friday evening to arrange for a base ball tournament to be held in Brussels about the 15th of August. The prizes will probably be 050, $80 and 020. Fall pattioulars given before long, and one of the heat programs of ball playing over witnessed in this section of the country will be presented.

FIRE AT SourHAntrroN.-On Friday night of laat week a fire occurred at the dock at Southampton, destroying over six thousand ties and two Grand Trunk reight cars. The relieving agent, L. 13. Creighton, formerly of Brussels, was down on the adjoining pier at the time with his little brother from this place, and, on seeing the fire, ran to the station, almost half a mile from the wharf, to get some men and have a locomotive out to run to the fire. It pulsed five oars ut of the fire, but two others wore oon- letely consumed. The cars saved wore worth about 04,000. "Ed." seems quite a dreprotector of the G. T. R. and should get a leather medal. Last year ho die. covered a fire at the freight shed, Galt, after 11 o'clock at night, and was highly commended by the G.T.R. This leather medal will not be any more espeneive. Rov. Mn. How= handed us the follow- ing clipping he made from a U. S. jour- nal thinking it will bo interesting to be read in Oon11eetion with his announced lectures on Palestine :--Dr, Sivartha, a well known resident of Chicago, hasstart- ed.for England, where he expects to or- ganize an extensive movement for the re- settlement of Palestine. Tho movement has already exalted widespread interest. A number of families in Chicago are pre- paring to leave in the autumn, and Siv- artha =poets a large colony to leave Eng- land for Palestine next spring. These people aro earnest, religious and practi- cal in plans, and do not expect the settle. merit and restoration of Palestine will be brought ebont'by anything that looks outwardly like it miracle. It must be guided by political sagacity and business judgment, both provaded by deep relig. ious impulse. Palestine has boon survey. ed and declared an extremely inviting field for settlement, and as soon RS a sufficient number of people are there to form the nucleus of a new nation it is expected the European powers will Ea - Mare Palestine an independent nation. Jews proper willonly forth about one- sixth of the new population. The larger clement will be English anti American. Dr. Sivartha has already worked out ex. waive and careful plans for the rebuild. ng of Jerusalem, for its temples, public uildings, gates and walls, in harmony with the prophatia description of the Bi - ie. According to his idea, the Now Teruo ohm is going to bo the center of learn. ng, of political infiueneo and religions capital, 9ivartha expects eventually to tattle up tho entire Euphrates valley, Which is capable of sustaining 100,000,• 000 people, Tart Peso trapped the Budget a little too sharp last week and this week he will not distribute his edition in town until Tun Pmis published, If he is telling the truth every time ho need not bo afraid of criticisms. We will try and not take the "terrible" disappointment of scanning hie edition to heart. Tan Goderiah Signal says: -A. .Kay,M. ay, who has for some time past occupi- ed the position of deputy postmaster of Godorich, left for Stratford on Monday kat to occupy a similar position in that city. Mr. Kay is a thoroughly reliable young man, will make an efficient officer, and oarries with him the best wishes of all who knew him in tide edition,Timmshundred and six tickets were sold at our station to excursionists, ou Thursday, for Kincardine. Leadbury and Walton lodges went from here. A groat many more would have gone had the G, T. R. given a hotter rathvaq rate, The Orangemen complained that different times exonrsions have been run to the lake at 70 cents a ticket and the railway company charged the Orangemen 01.00. It was hardly the agitate thing but the G. T. R. did not make anything by it. Tun nom LAND, --A course of four ioetnres on the above subject is announo- ed Mho dogwood by Rot G.
