light in the mill windows, and at once gave

ocated with much difficulty, and was soon
putout. That the fire was the work of an
incendiary was clearly proven by an at-
tetaPt to fire the building in another quar-
ter -in the grinding room, near a post where
a quantity of shavings, cotton waste and
pine splinters, all soaked. in oil had been

gone out. The shavings and oil had evi-
dently come from the basement, where the

Cattle, Butter and Cheese in the
014 CountrY.
The Globeai cable from London, England,
on June 28, says: At many of the markets
this week the cattle trade has been decided-
ly . brisker, and some better -prices have
ruled. This was notably the case at the
Metropolitan market on Thursday, where
buyers were more numerous and the tone
firmer than in previous weeks. From the
north aloe the same report Omen to hand,
except in the case of Nesvosetle, where Can-
adian beasts, though of good quality, fetched
slightly lower rates.
As regards cheese, on the market old Can-
adian is practically a dead letter, but there
is a strong demand for new males, whkh,
howeier, are rather scarce.. Best quality
whitelteiches 50s to 52s, and colored 498 to
avs. At Liverpool supplies are larger, how-
ever, and prices still show tendency to
fall. Some choice Canadian butter on. this
market has found purchasers at Teta vary-
ing from 808 to 901 per owt.

merchant at Lamlash, Grey county, in jump-
ing from his sulky during a runaway was

—The London Graphic of a recent date
dwells upon the posibilities of a trade in
horses between Canada and England, and
points out that while the coat of export is
somewhat greater to England than the
United States, yet the price realized is suf-
ficient to make it well worth while for Can•
adieus to raise tbe style of horses desired.
At a recent sale a number of Canadian
horses sold at from £65 upwards, and as
high as £160. They were in the main hack
and carriage horses, and farm bred.

hat with lace and a white floiver. She is
liglat-complexioned, with brown hair.
—Miss Pauline Kingsmill, youngest
daughter of Judge Kingsmill, of Walkerton,
was married at St. Thomas Church in that
town on Wednesday last week, to Mr.

DON'T FAIL TO SEE THEM
A BIG FAURE
Our May Sale has been a Big
Failure. We made the greatest pre-
parations we ever made for any sale,
and expected the greatest rush. But
the rush did not come, and the goods
are left on. our hands.
Rain, rain, rain, and cold weather
nearly all tie month, was the cause.
There was no need for Nice -Fine
Shoes in such weather. People could
not wear themif they had them. So
our immense stocks of FINE SHOES
still on our shelves.
We have got to make up for it in
June. We have got to not only do
the ordinary June trade, but to make
up the shortage on our May sales.
We were the losers, but you can
now be the winners. The nature of
our business requires a certain turn-
over every month.
During the month of June/ it will
be a matter of getting money, not
making money.
Please to take notice, therefore, that
we will continue the sale through
-Tune, and that the goods have got to
go. We make it a rule to avoid
carrying goods over from one season
to another, It will take special efforts
to carry this out this season. But if
the greatest bargains ever given will
accomplish it, we will succeed.
And" be sure that you secure some of them.
