DIED.— Last Saturday morning death came to the release of Frank Halliday, third eon of John C. Hall- iday. Frank had been a great suff- erer, having at the early age of 18 years contracted rheumatism, which became chronic and crippled him up a great deal. For the past two years his health had been very poor and he finally succumbed to consumption of the throat and bowels. He was born in Burgess, Co. of Lanark, in the year 1855 and came to Brussels with his parents 22 years ago. The de- ceased was a smart turned youth, his mind. running particularly on .11 ood carving, &e. His death was a very triumphant one and his friends had every assurance that the fear of death had been taken away. The funeral on Monday afternoon was largely at- tended the service being conducted by Rev. S. Jones.

STEAM Firm ENGINE CILiLLENOE.—We clip the following from the Montreal Gazette, of June 4th. It speaks for itself anclgives Mr, Chapman, of Montreal, a fitting opportunity of substantiating his claim, if it can be done :—Henry Chapman ea Go., of Mon- treal, are issuing oiroulars throughout Can- ada stating as follows :—"With pride we may advise you that the 'Manatee fire en- gine was selected by the Fire Committee of Montreal in competition with eight others, including Canadian manufacturers, and that it ie the most powerful engine in the world, oto., oto. And as the Fire Committee world not allow my engine to oempete with the Merryweather in open free market in Mon- treal, and as the editor of the Star reported that the Merryweather was of larger cap- acity, of greater power and lighter than our engine—also 9400 dearer. I wish to public- ly prove allthese statements in the main are untrue—the statement as to prion being the only true one. It ie true it is somewhat lighter, because we furnish many more use- ful appliances. Our wheals are larger and closer coupled. We will prove our draft to be fully as light, if not lighter on heavy roads. Inow take this plan to prove how untrue and how misleading these statements are and unjust to Canadian industries. I will deposit 9500 in any bank in Montreal, and ask Merryweather to do the same, both engines to be thoroughly tested in all kinds of severe practical fire duty in Montreal, and thug find out which engine can throw water farthest and highest with greatest force, at a normal safe limit of 100 lbs. steam press- ure, and also which engine is lightest to haul. This test is the sum and substance of a good effective fire steamer. I have stated to the fire committee that our engine would eclipse the Merryweather in every test. I now wish to prove it praetioally : — 9200 of the above money to go to the flood Shfferers' Fund, the balance to go to the winner to recoup his expenses. If the fire company aro in earnest in their selection of a steamer best suited for the neosesities of your city, they should pause Merryweather to aedept this challenge, to prove to the cit- izens which engine is the best. If I fail the Flood Sufferers' Fund will be 9200 ahead. If reversed Oanadian Industries are vindi- cated, and their true character shown to your people. Trusting for an early acceptance, JOHN D. RONALD, Steam Fire Engine Builder. Brussels, Ont., June 1,1886. SOMEBODY writes Pica of the Tor- onto News about the cost of starting a newspaper andjob office. He re- plies by saying :—My dear friend, I really don't know. It depends al- together upon the kind of shop you want to open out. 11 you are a han• dy man, willing to scratch along with little material, prepared to whittle quoins .out of shingle corners and riglete out of fence stakes, why, as the prospect for the turnip season is good, and the oropof cordwood, coup. led with cheap labour, likely :to be plentiful, you can probably start bus- iness with the expenditure of a few hundred dollars, and keep 'from starving until the walking gets good next year. But if you want to put on any frills, get cabinets With dis- play type, fancy 2 borders, patent chases; and power presses, the bill. will run away up into thousands. You can get It seoond•hand press welded together by a blacksmith and tied up with strings for $50; or you can get a web perfecting double•pross •as high as $35,000. You can get a newspaper dress from $150 up to $6,000, and yon can got job type for any pries you like, • according to style and quality. If you are yearning with a mighty yearn to plunge into the journalistic arena, and write Words that will burn into the publio intellect, you had better get a shingle and piece of red ohalk and go out bank of the barn and experiment on an article headed "The .Mission of the Boodle -Bagger." If that don't cure you take poison. If you want to go into printing as a business, sell your house and lot, deed your earthly possessions over to your wife, make your will, and then come down here and I'll show you around. Lots of men rusts into journalism because they think the penis mightier than the sword. I saw some oheeeo yes- terday, that for mitey-uses knocked the glimmer off of either. ' They ought to 01100e0 it. Jurlo 11, 1886, W. F. SCOTT, brother to F. S, and P, Scott, has purchased a half inter" est in a Livermore, Cal„ neivepaper. 0.
