DISTRICT MATTERS.

will regret to learn of the death of Mrs.
George Hart, tormerly Miss Maggie Jones
of Morris. The following reference to the
sad event we take from the Globe, of
Bradley, South Dakota : Died at 6 p. m.,
oneMonday, February 8th, Maggie Jones,
wife of George Hart, Blain township, four
mile. east of this place, after a short illneta
of five days, during the most part of which
time she was unconscious. She leaves an
affectionate husband, a mother, sisters and
brothels besides a wide circle of friends to
mourn h.er untimely end. She was buried
in the Bradley Cemetery with her infant
daughter on Wednesday February 10th.
A PROSPEROUS CHURCH, —A correspon-
dent sends us the following concerning the
ministerial labors of a pastor well known to
many of our readers in this county. tie
:nye : Under the pastorate of Rev. Mr.
Rogers the Methodist church on the
Atwood circuit has enjoyed temporal and
spiritual pi otperityr The three churches
have been reuovated, more or less, and the
parsonage oleo has undergone a change. A
new stone cellar, cistern, woodshed and all
of which is paid for. There has been a
steady increase in all the finds, and the
minitter's salary increased over 25 per cent.
Accessions to the membership have been
made each year and harmony and a fair
measure of prosperity enjoyed. Rev. J. S.
Fisher, of Arthur, has been invited to
succeed the present pastor whose term ex-
pires next June.
TEfE PATRONS OF INDUSTRY.—The Patrons
of Industry held their promised meeting in
the town hell here on Tuesday evening. It
was expected that Mr. Nesbit, the Grand
Lecturer for Ontario, would be present, but
hie place wes taken by Mr. Robinson, Master
of the Haldimand County Lodge, The
chair was occupied by Mr. Richie Common,
who opened the meeting, by a neat address.
The at enclance, although not large, was
fair. Mr. Robinson is an elderly gentleman
of pleasing appearance and manner. He
was formerly a manufiscturer, being the
founder and head nf the Poison Manufactur-
ing Company, of Toronto. He withdrew
from that company some years ago to en-
gage in evengelistic work, and he also em-
barked in farnsing, and now owns a farm of
two hundred acres, part of which is within
the corporation of the town of Danville, and
devotes his spafe time to the interests of
the Patrons: He urged unity among farm-
ers, as united they could accomplish what
they desired, but individually and divided
they were powerless in their owe interests.
He abjured them to discard party and to go
to the poih uuitedly to vote for their own
interetts instead of voting Grit or Tory, as
political leaders might pull, the wires. He
waa listened to very attentively for about
two hours and a -half, and at the close of -his
addre-s was tendered a cordial vote of
thenks.
medium through which to convey the heart-
felt gratitude of the friends of the deceased
to the people of that locality for their ex-
ceeding kindness and sympathy in the hour
of trouble, and to those who formed the
large and imposing concourse from the house
to the depot, where their hearts seemed to
expand and render their fellow feeling and
brother1W love commensurate with the grief
of the Pereaved children. When the body
arrived at Seadorth on Ssturday, the 27thett
8.30 a. itn., the hearse and over thirty rigs
awaited' to convey it to the old homestead,
where it was visited all day and night by a
vast number of old and, admiring friends.
On Sunday morning the funeral arrived at
St. James' Church, Seaforth, where Rev.
Father Cook, parish priest, celebrated a re-
quiem igh mass. After service, over eighty
vehicle formed in procession, and moved
slowly o Irishtown cemetery, where Very
Rev. D an Murphy was in readiness to per-
form th obsequies,these last sad consolations
of relig on. " Blessed are they that die in the
Lord, or they rest from their labors and

Tax SONS or SOOTLAND.—The entertain-
ment which was held under the auspices of
Lady Nairn Camp, Sons of Scotland, on
1(onday evening last, in the town hall, was
a gratifying success in every respect. Des-
pite the stormy evening the hall was filled
by a moat attentive and intelligent audience
of ladies and gentlemen. The chair was
efficiently occupied by Chief Ballantyne,who
wore the Camp colors. The progremme
was interesting and varied, consisting of ad-
dressees, music and readings. Suitable songs
were well rendered by Mrs. R. Laidlaw,
Miss Berrett and Mies Gemmill, and by
Messrs. Carmithael, W. McLeod end John
Murray. Readings and recitations were
given by Mrs. C. Lowrie, Dr. Campbell and
Mr. W. G. Duff, while short addresses were.
delivered by Rev. A. D. McDonald and Mr.
M. Y. McLean. Messrs. Stewart and Card -
no danced the Sailor's Horn Pipe'. Miss
Ewing prt aided at the organ. The audience
manifeated their appreciation of the various
numbers on the programme by frequent ap-
plause and enthuaastic encores. The en-
tert dement was, on the whole, one of the
moet pleasant that has been given in the
town tor a long time, and waa alike credit-
able to those who furnished it ; to the cern-
mittee of arrangements and to the Camp.
It cannot fail to have a good result in bring-
ing prothinently before the public a moat
worthy and useful association, which is cap-
able of affording much benefit to those who
avail themselves of -its privileges and ad-
vantages.
THE LATE JAMES DORSEY. —The subject
of the following sketch, the late James Dor-
sey, of Arenac county, Michigan, who died
February 24th, was born in the city of To-
ronto, fifty-seven years ago, whence he
moved in his childhood, in company with his
parents, to the township of Tuckeremith,
and located one mile from the .site of the
present town of Seaforth. Here his early
years were spent in the toile inseparable
from pioneer life, and here he remained till
about ten years ago, when he moved to the
above named State and county. He there
purchased and improved an excellent farm,
about three miles from the flourishing town
of Standish. Bountiful nature bestowed on
him rare qualities of head and heart ;
as a friend warm, kind, generous and disin-
tereeted ; as a companion, genial, sociable
and attractive ; a husband replete with
attechnient and fidelity ; as a father tender,
indulgent and solicitous for the welfare of
his offs priug, whose wants he anticipated
and eupplied ; as a member of society, up-
right, honest, honorable and truthful, and
he was respected by all who knew him.
Thaugh his wife is now thirteen years dead,
yet he never ceased to mourn her till he
sank into the sheltering grave where many a
care -laden and weary heart finds rest. Four
children, two sons and two daughters, re-
main to lament him. Though naturally ro-
bust and vigorous, he was for some time de-
clining ia health. He took la grippe, which
proved fatal. His last illness was borne with
Chrittian fortitude and resignation. As his
end approached his brother Michael, of
Seaforth, and his brother-in-law, B. O'Con-
nell, of Dublin, were telegraphed for. They
repaired immediately to Standish, but the
alacrity of death preceded them, and only
what was mortal of their friend remained,
and these remaine they brought baok to
Canada. As THE HURON EXPOSITOR is re -
received and read by a few around Standish,
the writer is- requested to make it the
EGM NDVILLE ITEMS.—Actiye church
worker are pleased to note the increase in
attend nos at the Sabbath services since
La Gri pe has ceased his ravages. Still
there i room for improvement, and it would
no dou t greatly cheer and encourage a
faithful, hard-working minister, if lowering
skies, an east wind or roads not of the best,
did not deter so many people from coming
out. An empty pew is by no means a pleas-
ing thing to address. When people are sick
the minister is surely expected to call even

facts of the case ; funerals must be attended

DEATH OF MR. D. CAMPBELL. — The
neighboring town of i ohell !ogee one of
its oldest and moat h g ly respected resi-
dents by the death of r. David S. Camp-
bell. The sad and s ewhat unexpected
event occurred on Sun evening last. It
seems that on the prey o s Monday morning
Mr, Campbell was pre a ing to leave for To-
;
onto to attend a meet n of the Provincial
Land Surveyors. Fo a few days before

in the region of the he rt, but did not think
seriously of it. On th reddening in queation
he commenced spittin ' blood and before
leaving home he expla tied his condition to.
his physician. He wa e.dvised to consult a
specialist as soon as 6 reached Toronto.
When he got there he felt so much better
that he attended to hi Other business first,
intending to see the d °tor before he left the
city. Oa the second at, he was in the city,
just as he was enterin his hotel the hemor-
rhage commenced agarnt and becoming sud-
denly faint he fell on the pavement. He was
at once helped into the hotel and medical
aid procured. His friends in Mitchell were
apprised of his condition, and his brother-
in-law, Dr. Hurlburt, at once. left for the
city and returned with him on Saturday.
He then seemed to be very much better. He
slept well Saturday night and on Sunday
seemed to be quite cheerful. On Sunday
evening, while sitting at the table, the hem-
orrhage again set in, Mrs. Campbell im-
mediately went for the doctor. They re-
turned in a few minutes and found Mr.
Cempbell lying helpless on a louvrte in the
room, and in a very short time life was ex- t

cause of death. Mr. Campbell was about
51 years of age. He had resided in Mitchell
since boyhood, and was a civil engineer and
Provincial Land Surveyor. He did a very
large business in these lines and was profea-
sionally well and widely known. Many of
the residents of this °minty, as well as most
of the municipalities have at one time or
another, availed themselves of his profee-
sional services. He was quiet and unas•
surning, but his genial disposition and ster-
ling integrity won hi ' the confidence and

DARING ROBBERY. On Saturday evening
latt 63 Mr. W. C. Col well, of Hullet, near
Kinburn, was procee Mg home from Sea -
forth he met with a otnewhat unpleasant:
and unusual experienc . When passing the
Agricultural grounds n this town, about
half 'past nine in the e ening, he over -took
two men who asked hi for a ride. Mr.
Coldwell, although e had only a single
cutter and one hors and the roads were
bad, with his usual ki nese and courtesy,
a,cceded to their requ s and allowed them
to get into the vehicle They rode along all
right until they go -near the turn in the
toed opposite the resi e ce of the late M.

MoDermid, when on of the men made
some excuse for gettin ut of the clutter.

He got in around behi and throwing his
arms around Mr. Cold We neck pulled him
backwards, choking b and holding him
1
helpless in this pea t on until the other
fellow rifled his poc e a. Fortunately he
only had a few ere. is of change in his
pockets, but the rasca a took a silver watch
and some other art c es of little value.
Hearing bells ooming t .hind, one of them
took the whip and hit . g the horse a couple
of times they both lade off through the
fields. Mr. Coldwell a cceeded in pulling
up the horse and waa I on overtaken by Dr.
Cooper of Kinburn, w se bells it waa that
oaused the flight of th obbers. No further
trace. of them, how v r, could be found.
Mr. Cold well did not r cognize them. He
says they were both o ng men with bare
faces while one wore ap and the other
a dark, soft, felt a . He is positive he
would know them f he were to see them
again, and should he un across them it
will not be please t for them. It was a
moist daring pieoe of u iness at that early
hour, on a publicly tr eled road and within

Ile old Board of Directors were all re-
elected by acclametion. The affairs of the
company are in a prorperous condition, and
the success of the enterprise is now assured.
The proposal of the Directors to hold a
literary and musical entertainment on the

MoKillop.
CORRECTIONS.—In our report of the Mc-
Killop council, last week, a couple of typo-
graphical errors occurred to which the Clerk
directs our attention. The ba,lanoe in the
treasury at the close of the year, as shown
by the auditors report, was given as
$1,167.56, whereas it should have been
$1,667.56 ; the name of the Sanitary Inspec-
tor was spelled McGivin instead of McGavin.
A single letter or figure makes a. big differ-
ence some times.
TOWNSHIP OFFICEES.—At the last coun-
cil meeting the following persons were ap-
pointed fence viewers for the year : Meese's.
Bernard O'Connell, Conred Eckert, James

James Ryan: The following were appointed
pound keepera : Metiers. John M tlooey,
John Irvine, Timothy' Ryan, Thomas Roe,
Alexander Johnston, John T. Dickson, Ed-
ward McNamara, and Thomas McElroy
Those having cantankerous neighbors in
either men or cattle should Rave this paper
for reference. Including road overseen.,
MeKillop has over 150 officials, or one for
every four ratepayers. That is the reason
why things are done so well,—it is nearly
equal to the Dominion Government in the
number of offici.l.s. We were going to 3-iy
in ability of offi ials, but leave it to the
ratepayers to suptily this part.
THE CHEESE FACTORY.—The farmers are
comvaining that all other businets men
unite to put high prices on the farmere.
Now, Mr. Hannah is offering them a good
opportunity to unite in a body in the town-
ship of McKillop and send their milk to
the Winthrop cheese factory to have it
manufactured into butter. He will pay 5
cents per 90 pounds of milk and return the
skimmed milk for the first four months.
This will be the beet paying thing for the
fermi -re of the township, far ahead of
political speeehea, and it can only be obtain-
ed by all agreeing to send their milk. Ali
are requested t. attend the meeting in the
Winthrop cheese factory on the 9th of
March at 2 o'clock. Whether it is cheese
or butter, we promise the most profitable
meeting ever held in Winthrop. —J. C. M.
