dered a solo at the evening service on
Sunday and Mr. Stewart Jackson
assisted the choir and also took a
solo part in the anthem.
A GOOD CROP.
The dry spell, of which complaint'
was made; does not seem to have in
' jured the ',flay crop on Mr. John
Ransford's farm at Stapleton, as
1 Dave Steeps the foreman i!llere, re-
cently drew hi fifty-two good loads
from a twenty-aore` field. This is
considered by those who are suppos-
ed to know whereof they speak, an
extra good yield.
_THE STREET SWEEPER.
h The sereet sweeper was given its
first trial on Monday and after it
had gone once over matin street the
macadam roadway fairly ;sparkled
with cleanleiess so much ' so that
strangers iii town during the day
were unaminious in admiration.
