would save himself, but it was too late. On
his person was a receipt from the Independ-
ent Order of Foresters, of Atwood, whioh
bad been sent to him by Mr. Humphrey, Of
Newry, in acknowledgment for dues re-
ceived. This receipt enabled the boat hands
to identify the unfortunate young man. De-
ceased had insured his life in the Foresters'
Order In Atwood, where he was well-known.
The body has notfbsen found. The bereaved
mother has the sympathy of the community
In the loss of herKry.
—When returting from the celebration
at Stratford, on the 12th of July, a man
named Thomas Chapman, from near Listo-
„wet, got off the train at Newton, and when
trying to get on again ° caught hold of the
rail on the rear e'er, when the train was in
motion. The sudden jerk pulled him around
with considerable force. No bones were
broken, but it is thought he received inter.
nal injuries.
—Some sneak thief effected an entrance
through the window of the residence of Mr.
John Cook, in the South Ward, Mitchell,
on a recent evening, and stole two jars of
preserves and four or five bars of soap. It
is supposed that the thief watched Mrs.
Cook lock up the house and go up town,
and knowing that she would not likely be
back until her husband had returned from
the nine o'clock train, he seized upon the
opportunity to gratify his taste for sweet
things. No doubt the soap wee used to
wash down the preserves.
—Mr. Wm. Malan, of Hibbert, was mar-
ried to Miss Mary Connolly, one of Logan's
most popular young ladies, on Tuesday, the
18th inst. The bride was beautifully attired
and was assisted by her sister, Miss Lizzie
Coanelly, while Mr. Peter Regan acted as
best man.” The nuptial knot was tied by
Rev. Father O'Neil, at Kinkors church,
After the ceremony the happy couple, ac-
companied by numerous guests, drove to the
residence of the bride's parents, where all
did ampledustice to a grand wedding break-
fast. The remainder of the day was spent
in dancing and social enjoyment, The pres-
ents received by the bride were many!, useful
and valuable.
—Mrs. Joseph Archer, of Logan, was be-
fore Magistrate Flagg, in Mitchell, recently,
on a charge laid by Mr. T. S. Ford, of that
town, of passing bad money. The evi-
dence showed that at Mr. Murphy'. store
the erisoner presented a $10 bill in payment
for some goods which she had purchased.
The money was refused, and the woman told
that it was worthies.. After this she went
to Mr. Ford's and exchanged it for two fives
with tha cashier. The court was very
lenient with her, on account, no doubt, of
her circumstances and to its being her first
offence. She had to make good Mr. Ford's
loss, pay coats of the court, and then was
let off on suspended sentence.
—The recent death of George Danbrook,
jr.,.a respected young man of Atwood, was
particularly sad. He was only in his 25th
year. The. trouble st liich culminated in his
death was of a protracted and distressing
character. About nine years ago he was at-
taCked with inflammation of the bowels, fol-
lowed by another attack five years ago, and
another in 1892. From this repeated irrita-
tion the bowels became chronically inflamed
and refused to perform their function, and
latterly he was unable to digest anything,
and in consequence literally starved to
death. A post mortem examination by
Doctors Rice and Parke, revealed the lower
part of the stomach and about two inches of
the upper part of the bowels to be thickened
and inflamed, and the whole bowels were
matted together and bound -down by inflam-
- matory adheeions, thus preventing their nor-
mal action. The lungs veere found to be
perfectly sound. He visited the State of
Washington a few years ago and taught
school there, but rcturned home not benefit.
ted. About three years ago he identified
himself with the MethOdist church, Atwood.
The day of his death, July 8th, he remark-
ed: "To -day is the happiest day of my
life," and requested his mother not to sit up
with him, adding : "It matters not when
I die, all's well, mother." Such a testimony
as this robs death of its sting.

The late John Braden of Kingston,
left $200,000 to be divided between relatives.
—Justice Patterson died `an Ottawa on
Monday morning, aged 70 years. Deceased
was a native of London, England. He was
made a Judge in the Court of Appeal in
Ontario, and in 1876 in 1889 was elevated to
the Bench of the Supreme Court of Canada.
—Mary Craig, a middle-aged, unmarried
woman, living in Brantford, bought a five -
cent packet of paris green on Saturday, and
swallowed the contents. She died Sunday
morning. Deceased was in ill health, and
is said to have had some words with another
member of the family.
—On Saturday, during the storm, a barn
owned by Mr. Griffin, Wolfe Island, near
Kingston, was struck by lightning, and with
its conteptr, destroyed. A brave little girl,
12 years of age, ran in the middle of the
storm to the burning building; unfastened
a stallion, and led him out. The horse act-
ed fiercely, but the little girl kept him in
check until assistance came.
—The Canadian Pacific Railway Com-
pany notified 300 of their employes on Mon-
day that their services were no longer re-
quired. " Economy and retrenchment," is
said to be the motive of this dismissal. No
fault was found in the men, and no dissatis-
faction existed on their part. They were
all given due notice of the Company's in-
tention.
—John Stewart, who died at Paisley, on
Saturday, was buried on Monday with im-
posing ceremony. Deceased was a promin-
ent lieutenant of William Lyon Mackenzie
in the uprising of 1837, and was condemned
to imprisonment for life for the part he took
in the insurrection. The funeral was con-
ducted by the Liberal Association.
—During the performance of Pawnee
Bill's Wild Weed show at Ottawa, recently,
one of the Mexican chariots drawn by four
spirited gray horses, going at break -neck
speed, was overturned, throwing the driver
into the seats occupied by the audience. For
a moment it looked as if the runaway team
would dash into the crowded seats, but, by
a dexterous throw of a lasso from the skilful
hand of one of the Mexicans,:the team was
soon brought to a stand, amid the cheers
and applause of the large audience. The
driver was not seriously hurt.

tile career ham been a brief one and he has
now assigned. It is geld Its forgot to pay
for the Buffalo turnout, the bill for- which
was sent to a local -collecting agent. His
total 'Makin are stated at $10,000.
--Herapath's Journal says that the report
of the Hudsoa's Bay Company for the year
ended May 31, shows profits of £61,353,
which, added to £17,763 brought forward,
makes a disposable balance of.£89,116. Out
of this sum the directors recommend a divi-
dend of 121 per share, against 61 6d last
year, which will absorb £80,000, and leave
£29,116 to be carried forward. The prices
obtained at the fur sales in January and
March show an improvement over those of
recent years, and the reports received from
many of the fur trade districts are more en-
couraging.
—At White lake, about five miles from
Made°, on Monday, last week, a man by
the name of Wickens started wish his wife
to cross the lake in a home-made boat, to
look after some cattle on the other side of
the lake. When only a short distance from
shore the boat upset in about 30 feet of
water. Wickens, who was a good swim-
mer, got hold of his wife, but she struggled
so in her excitement that he was obliged to
shake her hold loose in order to save him-
self, and she was drowned. The body was
recovered a few hours later. Mrs. Wickens
was 22 years of age, and had only luau
married a few months.
—A Canadian manufacturer of pressed
brick has an order from Buffalo for 200,000
bricks, and other Canadian firms in the
same line are shipping quite extensively to
eastern American cities. When asked what
gives rise to the preference for Canadian
brick, he replied that it is mainly their sup-
eriority.and uniformity of colot. " We are
able," he said, "to manufacture two hund-
red thousand bricks in which exactly the
same shade of color will be maintained. The
American manufacturers, owing I presume,
to the nature of the material they have to
use, cannot do this."
Old Acquaintances.
Let me tell you a pretty story. Among
the visitors in New York, during the cen-
tennial celebration from the South, was a
gentleman on the staff of the Governor of
Virginia. He had written to a friend to
engage a horse for him to ride during his
stay in New York. A white horse, proud -
stepping ancr slender -limbed, was selected,
and on the morning appointed was led in
company with a coal -black steed to the spot
where the Virginian gentleman and a friend
were ready to mount, when, lo! the black
bone pawed the ground, shook his head,
showed great uneasinees, and altogether be-
haved so remarkably that he attracted great
attention.
"As sure as I said the rider of the
white steed to his icompanion, "you ere
mounted on Black Diamond, my own old
horse !"
"Nonsense !" said the other equestrian,
"You wouldn't know Black Diamond now,
and he wouldn't know you."
By this time a little throng of spectators
had gathered, interested in the scene.
Black Diamond's saddle was taken off, and
under it was discovered an old scar, and a
little tuft of white hair, which proved his
identity beyond a doubt. When his old mas.
ter mounted him, the horse fairly quivered
with delight, and gave a cry of gladness.
All through the centennial week there were
two happy beings together, a man and a
horse, and a horse sometimes shows intelli-
gence so nearly human that one cannot but
be glad when a great pleasure falls into the
life of this faithful friend of man.—Our
Dumb Animals.
—A threshing engine vrhich was proceed-
ing along the Governor's Road, between
South Dumfries and Brantford township,
near Galt, the other day, broke through a
bridge on the road and fell down some 10 or
12 feet, being badly wrecked. Fortunately,
as the structure sank, the driver heard the
timbers cracking, and hitting the horses,
they sprang forward, breaking the kingbolt
and thus escaping. The driver jumped and
also escaped. The township council are
responsible for the loss, which will be con-
siderable.
—In 30 days from the death of the late
John Carter, of near Guelph, the adminis-
trators of the estate, Messrs, Thomas Todd,
of Galt, and Robert Forbes, of Guelph, have
been enabled to practically wind it up. The
chattels crops etc., were disposed of a
couple O'f weeks ago by auction, good prices
being realized. At that sale the farm was
a withdrawn, its value not being reached, but
Mr. Todd has since completed its sale to
Mr...John A.MoPherson, East River road,for
$7,650 cash, Mr. McPherson buys the farm
for his son, who will at once take possession.
The crop was sold for $500, so that the
price, practically, for the farm of 180 acres,
may be put at $8,150„
—R. N. Leblanc, a native of Black Cape,
Quebec, on the Gaspe Coast, went to the
United States some years ago. He return-
ed in the fall of 1891 with considerable of a
splurge, drove a stylish rig which he bought
in Buffalo, started a saw mill, and bought
out a general store business. His meroan.

cattle, 1,244 lbs average, brought $4.89 per cwt.; ten
cattle, 1,190 lbs average, $4.66 per owt ; one carload
cattle, 1,122 lbs average, 84.78 per owt ; one carload
.cattle, 1,800 lbs average, $480 per owt ; 20 cattle,
1,288 lbs average, $4.00 per cwt; 22 °little, 1,100 lbs
average, 410 per Ih. • A few of the poorest export
cattle Went down to a fraction below 40 per lb.
These will be fed in the byres for a while before be-
ing shipped. Butchers' cattle ',found a fair demend
although the hot weather had : a slightly depressing
effect:on the tone of the market generally. Nothing
went Over 4o per lb, with most of the transactions
made at figures between $8.20 and $8,90 per owt, ac-
cording to quality A carload of choice butchers'
cattle, 1,200 Ws average, sold for 4o per lb: one car-
load, 1,100 lbs average, 8/0 per lb ; 22 cattle, 1,000
ma average, woo per cwt; 10 cattle, 1,000 lbs aver-
age,* per lb. Only a few bulls offered, and these.
sold slowly at from Sc to 11/6 per lb, according to
quality. Hogs—The market halals its own so far as
choice hogs are concerned, but rough and stags are
not much wanted. Those sell ;away down to 80 to
no, with the best rough fetching from 6o to 5ao per
lb weighed off oars. Choice hogs are firm
at from $0.60 to $6.75 per owt, weighed
off oars. There ill a fair demand for stores,
and they fetch nearly as much as fat hogs.
Sheep and Lambs—Spring Iambi were a little mime
today,and finite a few sheep were mixed in with the.
lots. Lambe sold all the way from $8.75 to $4.50 per
head, and butchers' sheep sold for $4 to $4.26, and
found slow sale. There was nothing practically done
In sheep for export, only a few being bought on
speculation. One or two fancy lambs were reported
sold at $6 per head. Milch Cows and Springers—Of-
ferings were light, but dealers reported that there
Were ;mite enough for the demand. The top &Imre
touched for choice springers was $46 per head, and
very few selling at that. The class of those !action;
on offer Was poor generally. One or two head sold
down as low ulna per head. Calves—The market
for calves had recovered a little of its tone to -day,
but it is still not anything to brag about. A few
choice veals sold for $8, but that was the outside. The
range remains at from $5 to $7 per head,up to $4 per
head for medium.
lavEaroot, July 24.—The market is without any
special featureandgenerally unchanged. Receipts
of Canadian and United States cattle have not been
so large, and general home supplies are light. The
demand is about ,as before. Prices, calculated at
$4.80 to the £, are ; Finest steers, 110 : good to
choice, 100 • poor to medium, ole ; inferior and
bulls, 7e to 81e.
MONTREAL, July 24.—There is no change in theipo
sition of the live stook Market. The freight market
rules easy, but unchanged at 350 to 40s, only one
line holding out for 40s. None of the steamers,
however, are getting full cargoes, one deck being as
much as agents expect while one Glasgow boat sail-
ed with only 61 head on board'. It must not be
taken for granted that the cattle now going forward
are going to make fortunes ; in fact, it is doubtful if
they will let out, but they will notlose as much as
the stook which has been selling during the past
'month. The butchers wore present in large num-
bers today, and there was a brisk demand for near-
ly' all kinds of meat critters, and prices had an up-
ward tendency all round. Especially was this the
case with good lambs, which brought nearly 50c a
head more than similar lambs Were sold for last
week. There were no really choice beeves on the
market today., and the beet offered brought from
4in to ble per lb, with pretty good stock at from 4c
to 4P ; half fatted steers, fair conditioned young
stook and common dry cows geld at from no to 8/c,
and the leaner beasts at from 20 to 3c per lb. There
were no superior veals offered today, and prices of
common to good calves ranged from $3 to $8 each.
Sheep sold at about 8/tc per lb, and - lambs at from
82.76 to $4,25 each. Pat hogs are slightly higher in
price, or from 6ic to fiec per lb. ,
BUFFALO, N. Y., July 24.—Cattle—The market was
more active, opening at 10e to 15e ; advance on all
good grades, closing 20c or 26c higherthan last Mon-
day ; 3 loads extra choice 1,700 lbs sold at 86.25, but
the general run of 1,250 to 1,500 lies choice stook
went at 84.70 to 84.86 - good handy steers sold at $4
to 84.60 : oxen, $2.50 to $4.25 • mixed butchers',
$2.50 to $4. Milch cows and springers, 82 to $3 per
head higher. Stockers and feeders dull ; choice
feeders. $3.50 to 83.75. Sheep endLambs—There
was a good inquiry for choice heavy wethers, and
while the top price for this kind was . 84.60, a load of
really choice would bring $5 per cwt, Lambs of
good quality were also higher, but common to fair
lots were dull. There were plenty of these common
lambs, and the butchers do not seem to want them.
Best lambs soki at $5.76 to $6, and one deck of 77 -lb
Canaclas—the first of the season—et 66 per cwt.
Hogs—Market fairly active and 5e to 100 stronger
with the close of last week ; medium
grades sold at $5.90, with a fair number to
packers at $5.80 to 85.85 ; York weights, $6.60 to
$6 66, with a few., at Kos, pigs generally going in
with York weights • roughs, $4.60 to $4.75 ; ends, $6
to $5.50; stags, $4 to $4.26.

210 to 211c: townships, 18c to 18ec ; western select-
ed, 17e to 1710 ; western medium, leic to 17c.
Cheese—There is not much change in the cheese
market; 5,000 boxer, French cheese •brought 9clito
9 1-16c. There was also about 3,000 bexes which

about 3-16c higher than last week. We quote:

ored, 91c to 910 • finest Quebec, 9c to 91c :, second
