Preparations arsbeing made for a
big days' sports on Monday, August
yth.
Great excitement was created when
it was discovered that R. Doi 's res-
idence was on fire at noon last Fri-
day. Almost every one, both xnen and
women were soon on the scene with
pails and ladders. It was soon seen
that nothing could be done but get
out the contents as far as posible,
which was done. There was a great
deal that could not4be secured. Only
for much' active work the whole of the
south east part of the village would
have been wiped out as many roofs
were soon on fire. The cause is sup-
posed to be the explosion of a coil -oil
stove. The family were all away from:,
home except a small boy, who was
preparing dinner and had left the kit -1
chen and gone to the, front of the
1 house, when shortly after he heard a
noise and going to see what it was,
•
Mond, the place in a blaze, Consider-
able of the contents were removed
and a fair insurance will lessen the
loss. Mrs. R. Patrick was fhe owner
of the building and it is said carried
some insurance.

As you know the bagpipe is a - iird
instrument; the ohalactetistie .3f
which is that two or more reeds are
attached to :a windbag or reservoir
and supplied with air, either frn,n
the player's lunge or a nab* of bel-
lows. It isof unknown anticauity and
from the remotest period has been
used throughout Europe, Asia, and
Parts of Africa the Phoenicians,.
Hindoos, Hebrews, Greeks and
mans, being well •acquainted with It,
while it is more than probable that
the Assyrians and • Egyptians used it
also, as we can see by the sculpture,
literature, coins, ete., of the various
countries. It is still need in the Tyrol
and the Highlands of Scotland, apart
from the Scottish regiments.
At first it was made without the
bag, so that when we see representa-
tions on the walls of the ancient
Pompeian house or Greek vase of
Players blowing on two pipes at one
time, with inflated cheeks and start-
ing eyeballs, we see it in AS earliest
form. To preserve the cheeks and
lips from the great strain: put upon
them, they were bandaged up with
what they called `a' • '•plrorbia or
leathern muzzle or headstall 'which
was called a "capistruin." •
Though we know very little as tp
the musical instruments mentioned.
in the earliest Biblical books, there,
. are a 'few interesting references
which point to the primitive pipe.
In the 4th of Genesis' (R. V.) we
read that Jubal Was the lather of
all that handle the harp and pipe.
The pipe here mentioned was no
doubt.. a wind instrment, flute,
panspipes, or bagpipe, though we
cannot say with certainty; and of
course it may be a general term for
musical instrument, though bagpipe
is likely enough. Job tells us that
"they rejoice in the soundof the
Pipes," but the quotation "and -my
pipe into the voice of them that
weep" seems most 'applicable to the
bagpipe.
The Arabs had a bagpipe made of
goatskin with two pipes fixed in it,
and with the finger notes tipped
With horn. A small tube on the '.op-
posite side which the player held
between his lips to keep the b
supplied with air.
The Indian bagpipe is oil:eller
form, the bag is inflated through
mouthpiece, but the chanter h
only four holes, a proof of its gre
antiquity. The pipe used by sna
charmers, however, is made of th
outer coat of the gourd, and pierce
at the narrow' end for the admissio
of air.' It has two pipes, one wit
four holes, the other with seve
foul oat 0148 side, three 9x1 the op
posite.
A good many years ago now,
panorama was in full swing in Lo
don, England, showing the ruins o
Pompeii and there on the
wall
could be seen• groups of peasant.

pipes, similar in form to those 'o
the Highlanders, When I was a bo

As you know the bagpipe is a - iird
instrument; the ohalactetistie .3f
which is that two or more reeds are
attached to :a windbag or reservoir
and supplied with air, either frn,n
the player's lunge or a nab* of bel-
lows. It isof unknown anticauity and
from the remotest period has been
used throughout Europe, Asia, and
Parts of Africa the Phoenicians,.
Hindoos, Hebrews, Greeks and
mans, being well •acquainted with It,
while it is more than probable that
the Assyrians and • Egyptians used it
also, as we can see by the sculpture,
literature, coins, ete., of the various
countries. It is still need in the Tyrol
and the Highlands of Scotland, apart
from the Scottish regiments.
At first it was made without the
bag, so that when we see representa-
tions on the walls of the ancient
Pompeian house or Greek vase of
Players blowing on two pipes at one
time, with inflated cheeks and start-
ing eyeballs, we see it in AS earliest
form. To preserve the cheeks and
lips from the great strain: put upon
them, they were bandaged up with
what they called `a' • '•plrorbia or
leathern muzzle or headstall 'which
was called a "capistruin." •
Though we know very little as tp
the musical instruments mentioned.
in the earliest Biblical books, there,
. are a 'few interesting references
which point to the primitive pipe.
In the 4th of Genesis' (R. V.) we
read that Jubal Was the lather of
all that handle the harp and pipe.
The pipe here mentioned was no
doubt.. a wind instrment, flute,
panspipes, or bagpipe, though we
cannot say with certainty; and of
course it may be a general term for
musical instrument, though bagpipe
is likely enough. Job tells us that
"they rejoice in the soundof the
Pipes," but the quotation "and -my
pipe into the voice of them that
weep" seems most 'applicable to the
bagpipe.
The Arabs had a bagpipe made of
goatskin with two pipes fixed in it,
and with the finger notes tipped
With horn. A small tube on the '.op-
posite side which the player held
between his lips to keep the b
supplied with air.
The Indian bagpipe is oil:eller
form, the bag is inflated through
mouthpiece, but the chanter h
only four holes, a proof of its gre
antiquity. The pipe used by sna
charmers, however, is made of th
outer coat of the gourd, and pierce
at the narrow' end for the admissio
of air.' It has two pipes, one wit
four holes, the other with seve
foul oat 0148 side, three 9x1 the op
posite.
A good many years ago now,
panorama was in full swing in Lo
don, England, showing the ruins o
Pompeii and there on the
wall
could be seen• groups of peasant.
