There was little inthe barn except three or font loads of hay be- longing to Mr. George Davies, garden tools, etc. Mr. Perdue used it as a garage but the car was out -at:.the time of the fire. It is supposed that the fire wasstarted by children play- ing. with matches. Mr. Perdue had some insurance on the building. Theo fire caused a good deal of excitement as it is in the midst of a group of frame buildings :in two streets, but the wind•was not high and at- no time was any other building in danger.

V.odden of Goderich town- ship showed us the other day a col; lection of old . coins which he has which chare veryi t estin n h er The old- est one went back tb the time of George III' and was dated 1779. It is a large,: thick copper coin, both lar ger. and thicker than the modern pen- nypiece. ' A' Y Amongst the collection olleot}on are several "Bank Tokens," issued in Can- ada in the early part of the 18th cen- tury, by the Banks of Upper Canada and Montreal before Canada had a currency. One is a• thin brass coin, half as thick as the modern copper, on one side of which is the lady 'hold- ing the scales. It is dated 1811 . Am- erican one cent pieces, large and thick dated 1850 are' amongst the collection also several foreign coins. Mr. Vod- den, too; showed lis a flint arrow head which he piJked"up in his field when at work one day, which is no doubt a relict of Indian days. Be has a Steel arrow headwhich he found in the west during a. visit there some years ago, which looks like a very formid- able weapon, if shot from a bow in a practiced hand. NEW MINISTER iN TOWN. .

This will be good news for those who have occasion to travel over this road, as they have had to detour all summer The road from the C.N.I.„ Station, dinning' north through the town to the limit of the corporation;: has been formally taken over by the;=.Highways Commision, the bylaw confirming it having been approved last week, and - s -expected that the roan will -be smoothed up and some' tarvia applied very soon, It• is about tinte. Front street business- men were beginning to think that it would have been bet- ter to have kept the management of it in control of the civic authgrities. In that case, at least, one knows who to blame for tardiness. But perhaps now that the matter is finally settled we shall soon have some relief from dust, • A BUSINESS' CHANGE , A business change is taking place in Clinton at the beginning of Aug- ust, when Mr. G.
