DISTRIOT MATTERS.
t7 EII. PLEASED WITH SEAFORTH.—
DEAR EDrron,—I came to your town
some eight weeks ago and canvassed it
with books. It being my first visit to
Seaforth, I have done remarkably
well, thanks to my many friends. I
have found your town the best I have
ever canvassed in five s=immers. - I
think you have a town of which you
may be proud of, and if the young peo-
ple keep on in the way they are doing I
can see no fearof your town not prosper-
ing. I atteaded- both the Epworth
League Sooiety,in theMethodist Church,
and the Christian Endeavor Society, iz
the Presbyterian Church, and was
pleased to see such a good work and
such an interest taken in the good work
among -the young people. Now, should
I never have the pleasure of returning
to Seaforth again, I will ever remetnber
the friends whom I met while there.
Yours truly,—E.H. Lxwis, Book Agent.
RIG STOLEN.'.—Qa Saturday evening
last about nine o'clock, Mr. Peter Cam-
eron of the mill road,. Tnckersmith,
drove into town and placed his horse
and buggy in Hawkshaw'e hotel sled.
He came up town and returned in about
half an hour but his rig was gone and
he bas not been able to get any tidings
of it since. The animal was securely
tied and must havebeen unloosed and
driven away. She :was a brown - mare
about seventeen years of age and she
*had a foal at home, so that had she not
been driven off she would certainly have
:made her way home. The buggy was a
covered one and was nearly new, w i1e
the harness also was new. The los is
•. quite a serious one for Mr, Cameron if
he does not find his property again nd
he has no suspicion of any person. As
will be seen by. notice elsewhere he is
willing to give a liberal reward for s�ich
information as will lead to the recovery
of hie property.

A HAPPY A• ND CONTENTED EDITOR.—
The Mitchell Recorder's Editor has been
off on a trip; for several weeks,—there
are note -fumy' editors who get a chance
to travel much,—and on his retnrn,home
he sizes up his own town thusly :
"After another trip of several weeks from
home and a visit to a number of pretty
and thriving Ontario towns to the east-
ward, we return to Mitchell to find it
unsurpassed anywhere in several fes -
tures. It - bas broader and cleaner
streets than moat of towns ; it is better
lighted than any town we have seen ; its
schools are unsurpassed ; its hotels are
quieter, and it has more yelping dogs on
its streets. The beet known citizen
abroad is Mr. John . Whyte, the pork
packer; and every body on earth seems
to have met him at one time or another
on the uPper lake boats. The beet
known citizen among drygoods mer-
cbants4is Mr. A. l3urritt,- the hosiery
manufacturer ; and 'among politicians
the place is as notorious as the ` head-
-t quarters of the electoral district that re-
turns two of the most prominent Liberal
representatives in their respective hooses
—the chief whip in the House of Com-
mons, M r. 'Jae. Trow, and Hon. Thos.
Ballantyne, Speaker of the Ontario

ESTRAY ANIMALS.—There are a good
many estray animela in this county, and
if parties receiving tbern would adhere
to the following suggestions they would
often be saved a great deal of trouhle
and annoiance„ The law provides that
a persen taking up any stray stock shall
.give notice three times in a weekly
newspeper, if one is published within
the sectien where the astray stock was
taken up, and send a notice , containing
a minute discription of the animal to the
clerk of the municipalit in which he
resi ee, who is suppose to keep a regis-
ter f all estray animals ; and if the pro -
pert is not called for -within three
wee s after the first insertion of the no-
tice he finder shall go boor° a justice
of t e peace and make oath to the find-
ing nd -advertising. If the property is
not laimed within one year, and should
not exceed fifty dollars in value, it then
belongs to the, party taking the eame
up ; if over fifty dollars it shall be ad-
vertised by the justice and sold, and the
excess of all expenses shall be paid over
to the county treasurer. Any person
taking up estray stock and neglecting to
cause the same to be advertised and ap-
praised shall be liable to a fine of twenty
dollars. The estray law applies also to
any other personal property- which may
be feund in like manner.

very peinfuLand peculiar accident on
Friday last. Mr. Govenlock Was work-

a savage attack on him. Mr. Govenlock
happened to have an open kuife in his
hand at the time, and in stricking
around, defending himself against the
‘ bees, he struck his other hand •4•ith the
blade of the knife, inflicting a deep
wound clear across the back. Several
of the veins being cut the flow of blood
was alarming, and ad the known reme-,
dies were applied- and a physician tele-
graphed for to Seaforth. Before the
doctor arrived, however, Mr. Govenlock
had grown very week from the Ions of
blood, but the wound Was soon pkilfully
dressed, and relief was at once 'afforded

beats anything I have yet seen reported.
When Mr, Charles Murray takes off his
coat and Betties down to work be can
just make these other fellows look small.
One day last week Mr. Murray thresh-
ed with a Monarch machine on the farm
of Mr. Anthony Tyndal, concession 4,
H. R. S., mete at the rate of 15 bushels
per minute and Mr., Tyndal and Mr.

to break his former record of fourteen
and a half bushels per minute.'

BARNS BURNED.—During the heavy
wind storm, which passed over this dis-
trict on Friday afternoon last, and
while Mr. C. McWilson was threshing
on the farm of Mr, John F. Brown,
near this village, a spark in some way or
other got into the straw stack, and in
lhorter time than it takes to tell it the
stack and barns were in blaze. So
rapidly did the fire spread that nothing
could be saved, and even the separator
could not be removed and was burned.
The fire cemmunicated to the barns of
Mr. Robert Flynn, on the opposite side
of the road, and they, with their con-
tente, were consumed. &elides the
buildinge the entire crop of 300 acres
was burned. It is not certain whether
the fire originated from a sperk from the
smoke stack of the engine er from some
person smoking on the stack, as it was
said the ensoke etack had a spark arrester
on and was properly protected. The
lose will not be less than $3,000, and
there is an insurance in the Hay Mutual;
on both places, of $1,600.

Cousins case up for obtaining liqucr.
Five of them were tried on Tuesday
laet, and four were adjourned until next

of the kind in this part„ and being a
difficult case to prove it would have

selves by throwing stones at the echool
windows have been compelled to put in
new glass and pay a small amount to
settle the " case.' Of course, the
village boys are blamed for all condnet
of this kind, but, sometimes the country
boys ',assist them. One Sunday a short -
time ago, three or four boys were leen
on the track at the north end or our
village, throwing stones at houses and
a pane of glass was broken in one of the
windows. The f boys" may have to
pay the paper in this Case too, We
think the best way to prevent the boys
from indulging in this so-called " sport"
is to make the punishment as severe as
the law will allow. Strict enforcement -
of the law, secures for the law respect,.
and makes loyal subjects.
