seemed to restore his health to some
extent. But the benefit was only tem-
porary, and after his return he continued
to fail. He has been able to be about
until quite lately, and only the evening
before he died so unexpectedly, was
quite cheerful. He was a young man
of promise, a member of the Episcopal
ehureh, very highly esteemed, being a
native of Clinton, and his parents have
the entire sympathy of their many
friends, in this their. _first bereavement.
--Robert Laidlaw, of Solomon City,
Kansas, formerly of Brugge's, writes the
editor of the Brussela Post as follows :
It is with i3eSpest sorrow, that I write to
inform you of the death of our youngest
gen, John. He died 011 April 17th, aged
nyears, 5 months and 14 days. His
.ailment was spinal irritation, from. which
he suffered the most terrible pain for
over sixeening
months.
Onlast week a little child
of j. W. Hill, of Clinton, met with a
painful accident: She was playing
around the room, with the pointed end
oi e pencil inwards, in her mouth, when
ehe accidentally fell forward, the point
a the pencil piercing her throat. The
blood flowed so quickly that it almost
choked her, but it was stopped before
any injury resulted.
—Quite a gloom was cast over the vil-
.1age of St.fielens and vicinity last week,
when the death was announced of Mr.
Thos. Todd, a promising young man, 23
years of age. It- is a sad blow to the
family, as his illness was only of a few,
eleys. Though several doctors were in
att'
endance and did all that medical
skill could do, it was of no avail, as he
rapidly sank and passed peacefullyaway
on Thursday evening.
—The following is a summary from
Assessor Stewart's roll for Brussels this
year :—Children between 5 and 16, 254;
children between 7 and 13, 166 • child-
ren, between 16 and 21, 85; total valne
of real property, $262,430; total value
of personal property, $46,400; total
value of taxable income, $3,600 • totai
value of property, $312,430; Number
of dogs, 54; bitches, 7; persons, 1,243;
cows, 99; hogs, 30; horses, 95; births

—Mr. Edward, Doyle son of Mr.
James Doyle, of Goderich, died on Mon-
day, of last week, after an illness of sev-
eral months' duration. The deceased
was brought home from the States some
few months since and shortly after-
warda seemed to improve, but a few days
ago an excessive hemorrhage attack
precluded all possibility of recovery and
he gradually passed away !tensible of his
approaching end. 4)
—During the severe thunderstorm
with which Holmesville was visited on
Saturday of last week, the barn of Mr.
William Jordan was struck by lightning
ancl one of the ridge boards, together
with some of the shingles were torn off.
William, his father, and a son of Mr, R.
Glidden were in the barn at the time,
but received no injury. It is thought
that had there not been lightning rods
on the barn both it and its inmates would
have been destroyed.
—On Tuesday evening of last week
Wm. Roadick and John Hewitt, of
Brussels, hitched up their bronchos to a
buggy and started for Ethel. When
near their destination the bolt fastening
one side of the pole to the rig came out,
and the reltult was a shy off into the
ditch and an upset. Mr. Roddick was
thrown against a wire fence which cut
his head. Mr. Hewitt was more for-
tmutte and was not much the worse for
alightieg so uncerenioniously. The pon-
ies did not get away.
- —A resident of the township of Grey
who resides east of Cranbrook attracted
considerable attention one day last week.
While going homeward smoke was seen
issuing from his coat tail and before the
alarm of fire could be raised the gen-
tleman came to realize his situation and
whipped off his coat quicker than you
could say Jack Robinson' and stamped
• out the incipient fire. The first cause of
this threatened conflagration was that
the gentleman had put his "smoke
pipe into his pocket while the tobacco
was still barning. •
—On Wednesday of last week a lively
way took place in Exeter. As Mr.
Mlomon Jacques, of Usborne, was re -
Warning home the horse he was driving
took fright at a baby carriage and be-
gan to run. Mr. Jacques tried to hold
it, but one of the lines broke, which
caused the horse to spring into the
ditchaipsetting the occupant and. buggy.
It then started to run, coming up
the street at a lively rate. No damage
was done with the exception of the har-
ness being broken and a few slight
bruises that Mr. Jacques received.
—Quite a sensation was produced in
Hohneaville on the evening of Sunday
of last week. Mr. and Mrs. Swarts
Were returning from Goderich with their
infant securely wrapped so as to be pro-
tected from chilly breezes, when, how-
ever, a short distance from home they
diseovered the fact that the babe had
been suffocated by placing the wraps
around it too closely. They supposed
the child was past recovery, but called
idthe neighbors and hastily repaired for
the doctor. Before medical aid arrivad
however, the parents were overjoyed to
fiud the thild resuscitated.
—An interesting ceremony took place
at the residence of Dr. Gunn, of Clin-
ton, on Tuesday of last week, when the
Rev. Alex. McMillan, of Auburn, was
united in marriage to Winnie, youngest
daughter of Rev. A. Ross, of Woodville,
formerly of Picton, Nova Scotia. The
Rev. Mr. Ross officiated, and was as-
sisted by Rev. Dr. Ure, Goderich, Rev.
- A. Stewart, Clinton, and .Rev. S. G-.
.„ Anderson, St. Helens. Among the
guests, it was pleasant to notice Mr. L
McMillan, of Edinburgh, Scotland,
brother of the bridegroom, wheais ,at

—A young man in Wingham, who is a
little too fond of strong drink,but whose
finances are low and credit N. G., hit
upon a novel plan to raise money to buy
liquor with. He went last week to two
of the merchants of that town and
purchased dry goods, which he charged
to his father. A few days after he sold
the goods to persons in town, for, it is
said, less than half their value, but he
received enough money to keep himself
in liquor a few clays. The trick has,
however, been found out, and his father
will have to pay up, or the young man
may have to spend the summer months
itt Goderich.

—A question of considerable interest
to municipal authorities and others was
decided by Justice Street at Toronto a
few days ago. The judgment was on an
appeal from a decision ef a. jury at the
last Court of Assize in this etunty. The
plaintiff is a farmer named Rose, in the
township of West Wawanosh,and the de
fendant the Council of the said town-
ship. The plaintiff claimed to be the
owner of lands in question under the
will of his father, subject to the life in-
terest of his mother, Isabella Rose. The
action was brought to restrain the de-
fendants from removing gravel from the
land in question. The defendants
claimed the right to take gravel, under
a by-law passed by them, ostensibly un-
der Section 550, sub -section 8, of the
Municipal Act, Revised Statutes of On-
tario, Chapter 184. The by-law pro-
vided that the pathmasters and other
employes of the corporation shall
be authorized and empowered to
enter upon any land within the
municipality when necessary to do
so, save and except orchards, gardens
and pleasure grounds, and search for
and take away any timber, gravel, stone
or other material necessary for making
and keeping in repair any road or high-
way in the township, and providing that
the right to enter upan such land, as
well as the price or datnage to be paid to
any person for such timber or materials,
shall if not agreed upon by the parties
concerned, be_settled by arbitration, etc.
Justice Street is of opinion that in
passing the by-law in this form the coun-
cil did not carry out what was intended
by the Legislature by the section refer-
red to; and what the Legislature did
intend was that the council should, as
necessity arose, exercise the right to
take gravel from any particular parcel
or parcels of land, having first declared
the necessity to exist and chosen and de-
scribed the land from which the parcel
was to be taken by a by-law; that the
by-law is upon its face illegal because it
purports to confer upon the officers
powers much wider and more extensive
than the statute authorizes; and there
is nothing in Section 338 ofthe Munici-
pal Act to prevent the plaintiff from
maintaining this action so far as it is
based upon a claim to restrain further
damage.
The South Huron Reform
Convention.
A convention of South Huron Re-
formers was held at Hensel' on Tuesday
last, for the purpose of selecting a can-
didate and the transacting of other
business. The chair was taken by t
president, Dr. Buchanan, and from
opening to the closing of the proceedings
the hall was packed, there being scarce-
ly standing room. Every municipality
but one sent a full representation, there
being 114 delegates present, besides a
large number of staunch and tru,e Re-
formers who had gathered from. all parte
of the Riding to show their sympathy
with the cause. It was very evident
from the hearty and unanimous expres-
sions of opinion that the Mowat
Government has lost none of its popu-
larity with all classes of the people in
the several municipalities represented at
this Convention. At the last Provincial
election the Reform majority in South
Huron was over five hundred and, if the
enthusiasm of those present may
be taken as a criterion, the abcree ma-
jority is likely to be greatly increased at
the coming election.
After organizing, the first order of
business was the election of officers,
which resulted as follows: Dr. J. W.
Browning, Exeter, president; E: Rob-
erts, Exeter, secretary; Dr. Buchanan,
Zurich, treasurer. The following local
chairmen were appointed : Exeter, R.
W. Collins; Stephen, V. Ratz,Crediton;
Hay, Dr. Buchanan, Zurich ; Stanley,
A. M. Campbell, Bayfield Bayfield,
Dr. Stanbury ; Goderich township, Cap-
tain McDonald; Seaforth, Wm. M.
Gray '- Tuckersmith, Wm. Doig, Kip -
pen; Usborne, James Hackney, Far-
quhar. It was also decided that here-
after an annual meeting of the Associ-
ation is to be called, and that an effort
is to be made to secure one or more SO
the Reform leaders to address it. This
meeting is to be called at the option:of
the President. After a hearty vote of
thanks the retiring President, who made
a neat response and a felicitous and
cheering inaugural address from the
new President, the meeting proceeded to
the real business of the day, the selec-
tion of a candidate. The following gen-
tlemen were nominated : Messrs. Wm.
Doig, Tuckersmith; R. W. Collins,
Exeter ; Wm. M. Gray, Seaforth ; Dr.
Buchanan, Zurich; V. Rate, Stephen;
Dr. Browning, Exeter ; S. Hogarth,
Stephen; A. Bishop, Usborne ; M. Y.
McLean, Seaforth. After addressing
the Convention all withdrew except
Messrs. Bishop and McLean, and after
a ballot was taken Mr. Bishop was found
to have the larger vote, and he was im-
mediately tendered the unanimous nom-
ination, which he acknowledged In his
usual happy manner. After passing
resolutions approving of the policy of
the Reform leaders in the Dominion
Parliament and endorsing the Ontario
Government and commending its .judi-
cious and honest administration of af-
fairs the Convention came to a close.
