NOTES. -Next to Politics the weather
seems to be the principal topie of conversa-
tion just now. We had a _nice shower at
the front end of the week. The amount,
as indicated. by our finest instrument, (a
superannuated lard pail,) was .65625,
nearly. This was a fine shower and as such,
we believe was, generally accepted. The
frost on believe,
night was very severe
here, and those who neglected to bring in
their strawberries, early potatoes, fruit
trees and other garden. truck, are bitterly
bewailing their loss.-Fishworms are very
numerous this year and appear to be living
very near the surface of the ground. A
number of very near-sighted observers tell
us that although they are very often seen
above ground, yet they neither see nor hear.
Then we would ask : . what under the
canopy are they looking for ?-A few of the
members of Carmel church, together with
the pastor, spent a part Of Monday after-
noon last sodding a neat plat of grass in
front of the church and making a neat bor-
der for flowers. A neat flower bed, in the
-shape of a heart, is also soon to be laid out.
These evidences of taste will add consider-
ably to the appearance of our valuable
church property. -We learn that John
Wren, formerly of near Chiselhurst, but
now of New Rockford, North Dakota, has
sowed 190 acres of wheat; 38 of oats and 6
of barley this spring.

AR
A DING ROBBERY. -The woollen mill
here was entered or broken into on the
morning of the 25th, about 2 or 3 o'clock.
The thieves entered by one of the back win -
dews and stole abeut $500 worth of goods,
consisting of tweeds, yarns, blankets and
underclothing. A reward. of $50 has been
offered by the village council. The robbery
was a most daring one, as the night was
fair moonlight, and they had with them two
light rigs.

day was celebeated in most loyal style here.

team by a score of 18 be 3. At 12:30 p. m.

Tens " -winning the lst money and "Coxey's
Army" second money. Mr. A. Q. Bobier
took let in the trades procession and Mr.

• minute trot there were five starters, Lord
Tennyson winning first money, owner L.
Kennedy, Clinton ; Erie Girl 2nd, owned
by E. Bossenberry, of Zurich; Brinaros

six entries 1 but only three started, John
Nelson Saranac and Mell 0, the last named
horse being distanced in thefirst heat. The
race ended with Saranac winning first
money, John Nelson second ; time 2:30.
The most exciting race was the free for all,
between Florence G; of.Brussels, and Elsie
Groff, of London, the horses having a
record of 2;18 and 2:18+ respectively. After
trotting four heats,Elsie Groff won the race,

taken of. The new church is to be of brick,

most modern style. It is expected to cost
about four thousand dollars, and when com-
pleted to be free from debt, as the most of
the required amount has already been sub- 4
scribed. It will be an ornament to this
