QUITE a rearrangement of railway fares commenced last Monday. Fare to Toronto reduced 106., Hamilton 80c., Listowel raised 5o„ Tiarrieton 10o. All the fares in this locality are the same, Tun f.,ondon Ghost Show which exhibited in the Town Hall, on Thurs day evening of last week, was as big a fraud as ever struck Brussels. Their jokes were as old as the hills and the rest of the performance was anything but elevating. The audience was too large for such au entortam- ment, THE Canadian Pacific Railway is breaking the record every day. Now the North Shore Railway has been traneferred to them, their time bill hae been arranged that through con- nections to Quebec and Pointe in the Lower Provinces can be made from Ottawa, Toronto, Detroit, and all points west, via St. Martin Junction, 12 miles North of Montreal, thus avoiding tedious waiting at connect ing points and enabling passengers to reach their destinations in ae short a time rs possible. We kave no hesitation in saying that for comfort, excellence of road, and the politeness and attention of their servants, the Canadian Pacific Railway stands pre- eminent as the Model Road of Can. adv, and although one may feel in. dined to smile at their streamers advertising the road, a trip will con- vince any unprejudiced mind that the road, equipment, scenery and punctuality are superlative in every sense of the word Mies ltttocllt SHAW was house from Mourfield for Sunday, Two wicks from Friday of this week will be Christmas, FOURTH Division Court will be held on Wednesday, 28rd mat.

STATIsT101113 Run MAD,—The Grand Trunk Railway Company require all agents to macre a return, monthly giving the following information:— Agent and all his staff, name, his age, his pay, where born, when em, ployed on the road, previous employ meet, if they understood the rules of the Company, has he a rule book? How many semaphores ? Hom many switches ? When lit, wneu put out ? If in good order ? How many water pails filled with water in case of fire ? Is traffic increasing or decreasing and are we subject to any opposition by rail Or water ? Are merchants and others satisfied as to rates, tic. ? Have you had any complaints ? Is there any new traffic likely to be ob- tained and what kind ? Is the ac. commodation at the station sufficient? Have you any suggestions to make in regard to any matter connected with your station ? This rigmarole, which has to be gone over monthly, puts. one in mind of the ancient soboelmaster putting the boys over their catechism once a week, One would think ouoe a year would do for all purpose of railway business but the officials appear to think differ- ently. HOW MO. GOT LEFT.—The daily Winnipeg iltanitoban furnishes us with the following item concerning a former resident of Brussels :—Last evening a respectable -looking young man arrived from the mountains, and registered at the Queen's hotel, After partaking of dinner he entered into conversation with Mr. McIntosh, the genial young man at the news stand, who soon became very friendly, and, who later on took the Rocky Moun• tam ranger up to the reetaturr.n Francaie, where a very pleasant even- ing was spent. Mr. McIntosh was much struck with the beauty of a diamond brost pin worn by his new friend, who casually remarked that es his usual monthly remittanoe hal not yet arrived from England, and being low in funds, he wished to know of some one who would advance a small sum, on the article in queetion, Tom at once said be would only bo too happy to oblige a friend, and banded over ten dollars in exchange, receiving the diamond pin. They then returned to the Queen's and an expert on precious stones hap - ening to Dome along asked his opin- ion. The expert at once pronounced it a fraud, McIntosh went in search of the sharper, whom he discovered making across Portage avenue, in the direction of Main street. A pursuit was at once made, Tom shouting "stop thief." A. policeman made after the man from the west at a 2:40 pace. At the corner of Graham street about twenty men and boys had joined in the pursuit, and amongst them Sergeant English. The man who hailed from the west proved too fleet, however, and was lastseen making south past Mulvey's brewery, at which point the chase was aband- oned. The police have a clew, and thesharper will likely soon be brought to justice. BANKING. - ��aINTCSII �C Mo'l'AOGART', l... BANKERS• 1 BRUSSELS TRANSACT A GENERAL BANICINO BUSINESS.
