Johnston & Son, ran OPISITORS. LOCAL NEWS The young people aro enjoying their first skating this week. Mr. J. D. Merner spent a few days in London this week on busi- ness. Mr. Henry Bossenborry, of Grand Bend, was in town on Tuesday, on business. Mr. Joel Boehler purchased nine acres of land on the Babylon line from Mrs. Kidd. Mr. John Hey Jr., of the Goshen line, sold his fine sorrel driver to a party in Tuckersmith: Mrs. D. S. Faust has been con- fined to the home for a nulnber of weeks, owing to a severe cold. Miss Clara Wensel, of Crediton, has been visiting her cousin, Miss Dora Either, the past few weeks. Mrs. R. Kidd, who was for years a resident of the Babylon line, Hay, but now living in Exeter, was in town. Services in the Lutheran church were suspended on Sunday last, owing to the illness of the pastor, Reg. E. Sohuelke. Mr. J. H. Bentson, who has been manager of the Sovereign Bank here will leave shortly. He will be succeeded by Mr. Peffer, of Mil- verton. Mr. John Schafer, who has been conducting the butchering business in town for the past three years, has disposed of the same to Harry Yungblut. Mr. Daniel Koehler purchased the barber business of Mr. Melville Harness. Danny is learning the business and has engaged Mr. Har- ness for a time. Parties requiring ice in their business intend hauling it from the lake this season, as there has not been sufficient water in Foster's pond this winter, Mr. and Mrs. Richard Kerslake, of Elgin, Manitoba, formerly of Stephen township, spent a few day of last week the guests of Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Williams. Father Pruuthoulme, who has been pastor of Drysdale Parish for the past few years, left this week for Aig point, where he assumes charge of a large congregation. The roads are becoming passable and as a result the expected wood famine will not occur. Messrs. Mess and Deichcrt are busy with two teams getting our citizens a supply. On Thursday Feb. 18th, at one o'clock, sale of farm stock and im- plements, on lot 22, con. 0. No reserve. e months credit. E. Bos- eenberry, auctioneer ; John Zettel, assignee. Miss Clara Barents, daughter of Mr. Ben, Surerus, of the 14th Con„ returned from Saginaw, Mich, on Saturday night. It took her five days to make the journey owing to the snow -blockade. On Thursday Feb. 25, at one o'clock p. m., auction sale of farm stock and implements,on lot 9, con. 15, Stephen, one and a quarter miles east of Shipka. Wer. Baum. GARTEN, Proprietor ; E. BOSSES - DERRY, Auctioneer. The Glance at the Commercial Hotel on Friday evening was a splendid success, about thirty couple taking part. Messrs. Schuet- tier and Little, the managers, feel very gratified at the result and will likely hold several more during the season. Messrs. Lamont and McNaught- on, County councillors for this division, brought up a motion at the council's recent session, for an. appropriation of $1,000, for impro- ving tho Town Line between Hay and Stanley. The motion was re- ferred to the executive committee. The regular quarterly services of the Evangelical Congregation were held here on Saturday and Sunday. The several meetings were well attended considering the bad state of the roads. Rev. Knechtel,P. E., assisted by the resident pastor, Rev. W. J. Yager, conducted the services. Our sister village Dashwood in- tends putting in 0 large Aeytelene plant for the purpose of supplying its residents with light. The one advantage they will observe over the electric is that they can have light in the morning, something we in Zurich aro lacking as yet. it would bo a good. move if our citi- zens could secure a light service in the morning, beginning at about 6.30. Miss Emma Weselob, returned to London on Tuesday afternoon. Mr. Louis Prang took a business trip to Dashwood on Saturday. Our trustees this week installed a fine new regulator in our public school. Mrs. Miller, of the Sanble line, is at present staying with her sister, Mrs. D. S. Faust. Master Theodore Foster, son of Mr. Louis Foster, has been quite i11 the past few weeks. A number of our citizens have fish nets set on Lake Huron, but the catch so far has been small. It is reported that young Masse, of St. Joseph, who had a critical operation performed recently, is progressing favorably. Tho thaw on Saturday and Sun- day settled the high piles of snow considerably but we still have enough to last till spring. A dancing party took possession of Mr. Martin Warms house at the Bronson line, on Wednesday evening and all pronounce Martin a jolly good fellow. Mr. Edgar Magel, who has been in the employ of Mr. D. S. Faust for some time, severed his connec- tion with that establishment, and will it is said, engage with Mr. J. D. Merner. Mr. Andrew F. Hess is agent for the standard Fire Insurance Co. This is a strong Company and we understand Andy has already been doing some business for them. He also has agencies for other com- panies. The city of Baltimore was the scene of a terrible conflagration on Monday. Seventy-five business blocks covering 140 acres were destroyed entailing a loss of over $100,000,000, with an insurance of about $30,000,000. Several Cana- dian Fire Insurance Companies are large losers by this disasterous fire. While Baker 0. Eilber was at Dashwood, oil. Tuesday, he fell in with Mr. Henry Boo ; •rberry, of Grand Bente anti the .t es:dt vas a horse deal. On the way to town the new horse struck such a gait over the icy road that the remain- ing loaves of bread. started falling from the wagon,and were scattered along the road (so it is said) far nearly two miles. Chris. is fond of fast horses but evidently this one should be on the track instead of on the bread -sleigh. Messrs. N. M. Confine and Jules Savarin, of St. Joseph were in town Monday, representing the Interna- tional Flax Fibre Co. with head office at St. Joseph. The object of their visit was to negotiate with our business men for the establish- ment of a factory in town for dressing and preparing flax into fibre and tow by the methods and decorticating apparatus discoverd and patented by one G. R. de Mont - lord. The apparatus in question is a marvellous invention if it does all that is claimed for it. Green fax taken direct from the field; put through this machine produces a finer, cleaner and stronger fibre than the rotting and breaking methods of the old process and in loss than one hour from the time the flax is placed in the machine it produces fibre ready to spin. Their proposition was hoard by a large number of our business men but no action was taken, but like Oliver Mowat, it was promised their most serious consideration.—Exeter Ad- vocate.
