shit became known, forged paper turned
en in all directions, and for all amounts.
get has borrowed money wherever it
was possible to do so, relativesand
friends alike being his victims, and the
amounts running all the way from $50 to
$2,800. It is very difficult to *find out
accurately the sums lost by individuals,
but it reports are at all true, there are
at least half -a -dozen whose loss will be
over $1,000 each, (one going an high as
r2,800), a large number lose amounts of
from one to six hundred dollars, and it
is estimated that when all are known,
bisliabilities will sum up in the neigh-
borhood of $20,000. We sincerely hope
this amount may be over-estimated, but
some who profess to know, say it *ill be
ag of this. One of our citizens is said
to have :bought the bogus notes to the
extent of $2,100, and of course this is a
dead loss. Up to the time the matter
first became public, Mr. Craig has really
enjoyed an enviable reputation, not the
first word of a dishonorable transaction
ever being breathed against him. He
was always regarded as one of the fair-
est cattle buyers in the trade, and it
seems strange that he could deliberately
use the names of his friends for fraudu-
lent purposes. No doubt the fact of so
many forged notes being in existence
and not becoming known, was due tO
the reputation Mr. Craig was supposed
to possess for integrity and uprightness.
He did not leave town before the first
forgery was discovered, but as soon
thereafter as he could, and even went so
far as to take a loan from a friend at
the station, stating that he was a little
"short" and wanted $50,and the friend,
never mistrusting him for a moment,
banded him all he had, which was $45.
Whether the money, obtained by fraud,
has been sunk in unprofitable buying, or
44 -salted," is a matter not known. Some
of those who have been taken in will
feel their loss keenly, while others are in
a position to bear it. Parties who have
seen some of the notes said to be forgeries,
assert most positively that the signatures
are not in the handwriting of Mr. Craig,
and interesting developments are looked
for.

SOWN. ENTERTAINMENT. -The teach-
ers and scholars of School Section No. 1,
-Colborne, held their annual entertain-
ment on the afternoon of Friday, the
16th inst. It proved a grand success,
far ahead of the most sanguine expecta-
tions. It commenced at 3 o'clock in the
afternoon, and at that hour all the seat-
ing room was taken up. Large numbers
arrived after the ccanmencement but had
to stand, and some -could not even gain
admittance. There were between, 100
and 125 visitors, who with the scholars,
swelled the number to nearly 200. The
programme consisted of solos, duets,
quartettes, dialogues, kindergarclen and
caliathenic songs and instrumental
music, readings, redtatians and charades,
and was a very lengthy one. It occupi-
ed from 3 o'clock till 7 o'clock, and even
then several pieces had to be struck off
to bring it to a timely close. Mr. T.
gallows kindly lent his organ for the oc-
casion, and Mr. F. Sallows his violin.
Notwithstanding' the large number pres-
ent all appeared highly pleased judging
by their smiles of approbation. Mr. R.
Gray and Miss M. Murray are the
teachers. Mr. Potter Was appointed
chairman, and filled that position very
creditably. This section is to be con-
gratulated on securing the services of so
efficient a teacher ar Mr. Gray, and we
venture to say that at the end of his
term the respect and esteem in which he
will be held, will hardly know any
bonds,

RRIEFs.-Mr. 'Ghent Dorland died at
the residence of his father on Tuesday,
the 13th inst. Though he was scarcely
20 years of age he was a victim of con-
sumption. His brother Jay died about
two years ago of the same disease. -Mr.
and Mrs. Dorland have the sympathy of
many friends in their sad bereavement.
-The Rev. Mr. Hough, of Lonclesboro,
is visiting in Gorrie. -Mrs. Hasties of
St. Catharines, is visiting her sister,
Mrs. Carson, of this village. -The
financial report of the Building Com-
mittee of the Presbyterian church,
Gerrie, showed that there was a balance
of VG on hand after paying for the
church. When the Rey. Mr. Muir came
lo Gorrie the congregation was very
small and they had no church of their
awn. Now they have a very neat brick
ehurch, with a much larger tnembership.
This speaks well for Mr. Muir, who has
been and is untiring in his efforts to pro -
mate the spiritual, moral and financial
svelfare of the church. He is a good
i
reacher, thoroughly earnest in his
•ork and not afraid to declare the
. hole truth. It must be gratifying to
*in to know VIA God has so abundant -
y blessed his labors. -The hostler at
tr. Allan's hotel was put in the "cooler"
er being drunk and disorderly. We
nt'
hink awho get drunk and walk the
treets while drunk should be dealt
with in the same manner. This would
tend to make drunkards remain inside
while intoxicated. Put them in the
" cooler." -Mr. Bone has opened a tailor
shop in the store lately vacated by Mr.
Yeo. -A base ball club Iths been organ-
ized in Gorrie. There is good material
for such here, and we hope to see our
, Club very successful this season.

discovery, and the fire engine being use-
less o11 account of no water supply near
the station, it was impossible to check it
before all the building was destroyed,
except the eating.house adjacent there-
to. . Ogilvie's elevator near by was en-
dangered, but escaped.
Sir John's Authority.
An Ottawa correspondent says: The
Premier was in his plitce in the House
for a few minutes Monday, but made his
presence felt in a quiet way before leav-
ing. When Mr. Blake was denouncing
the conduct of the Hon. Thomas White
in regard to the higgledy-piggledy"
return, the Minister of elle Interior
leaned forward and asked Sir John, who
sits right in front of him, if he would
reply. The Premier said not -and no re-
ply *as made. A few ininutes after-
wards Mr. Blake referred shortly to the
necessity for bringing down the sup-
pressed telegrams Efrom the Riel Medical
Commission, and the Minister of Jus-
tice, being a fresh 1 minister, and
a fighter by natur 1 proclivities,
was rising to reply hen Sir John
partly turned his head nd said "No."
Mr. Thompson, who had half risen, re-
sumed his seat. It will thus be seen
that with Sir John absent the Cabinet
in the House is without a leader, as
i -
these new ministers n ver consult Sir
l
Hector Langevin as to hether it is wise
or not to speak, or, in fact, at to their
own action in any other. particular.

Four Reasons Why
ROBERTS'
Pleasant Worm Syrup
HAS BECOME A HOUSEHOLD
NECESSITY WITH MOTHERS
OF FAMILIES.
I. Because it never fails to remove worms from
the system.
II. Because Qf its perfect harmlessness to the
constitution of the smallest or most delicate
child.
111. Because of its economy, as a bottle in the
house will save many a doctor's visit.
IV. Special. Because when administering
medicine to young children pleasantness of taste
should be of an importance, second only to
the'efficacy of the preparation, and this syrup is
so made that no child will refuse to take it, so
agreeable and aromatic is its flavor.
Try it and take no other.

Announcement Extraordinary !
The Bankrupt Stock running off for the past two months still further replen-

Therefore, we would kindly ask the favor of a call, and be convinced that this is a
GENUINE CLEARING SALE, as the goods must be sold to allow of extensive
alterations in the premises.

FARMERS' ATTENTION!
JOHN C. MORRISON
Having been appointed Agent for that old and
,reliable Gurney Manufacturing Company, wishes
an inspection of their celebrated binders at
'Win. Cook's Shop, Winthrop, before you pur-
chase. They claim no steel frame, as there is
none made in Canada..
But they do claim a .single bracket for the
gearing- furnished with Ivo% ea.ble bushings, that
ban be renewed without expense of bracket, and
the frame Made solid by a tight hook.
The reel is simplicity itself, and has more ad-
justment than any other in the world.
A special feature is Brats Rushing in whick
the pitman clank and roller pins run, and no
ehance for straws or grass to wind around the
gudgeons, and all maple rollers for canvass.
An ether binders are liable to have wet areas
or tangled straw lodge at top of canvass, ue'-here
the straw is...delivered. . This is overcome by a
Single device called a Reliever.
The elevation is only three feet.
, Farniere call and examine and see John, and
ask sut h farmers as Humphrey Snell, Hulled;
homes Carter, tiorriat and Wm. J. Shannon,.
leKillop. Also on hankthe cheapest and easiest
umped hay rake in thatleminion.
