A fevc days ago while the wife of Mr. Harry Zapfe, who lives on the Town Line, Stanley, was walking through the swamp near her home, she noticed an odd looking object sticking out of the ground. She tugged at it and when finally brought to the surface it proved to be the antlers of a large moose, the animal, no doubt, in the long ago, having laid down at this spot and died from wounds received from the Indians or in an encount- er with another moose or other wild animal, rn a with the White Star Li Reports of the destruction of live stock by lightning when adjacent 'I'M to wire fences are becoming quite -ItdaS numerous. In fact the occurrence is too frequent, and the losses too heavy to be pleasant, and the situa- tion is aggravated by failure to ap ply the precautions that would a- void the losses. A ground wire fence will ward off all danger. Bend an end of ground wire—plain fence wire—around the top wire of fence and then around each sue ceeding wire, and finally run wire into the earth fully two feet, or where the end will always be moist. An iron rod sharpened at the end will make a hole for the wire. The job is easily done, the cost is al- most nothing, and danger to animal or man is avoided. ORDERED WORK.

It is said a nun named Tremane, who claimed to be agent for the Manson Campbell Company, of Chatham, manufacturers of fanning machinery, has swindled farmers in Hastings county. One farmer gave him an' order for a fanning mill and a note for $13, and then sent him aregistered letter con- taining the amount of the note, The letter was received, but the note was not returned, and the only answer was an anonymous letter, telling the farmer he should know enough not to do business in that way. Manson Campbell & Company, say Tremane is not their agent. STANLEY TOWNSHIP Rev. Mr. Hinde has been appoint- ed rector of the Church of England at Varna.
