SVP.PRISE PARTY. —Some of the
friends and neighbors of Mr. David
Campbell, lot 3, concession 17, Grey,
set at his residence on Friday evening
batawith well filled baskets, and follow -
tat a very pleasing and interesting
.event occurred. Mr. James Smillie was
called to the chair and after eome pre-
liminary remarks, called on Mr. M.
morrison to read the following address.
gr. Jonathan. Moore, at the same times
banding Mr. Campbell a purse. To
1,1r. David Campbell.—Dear Sir.—We,
a few of your friends and neighbors ha
this vicinity, do assemble here to -night
in order to show our regard and the
esteem in which you are held for the
many favors you, in your kindness, have
bestowed upon us. You have never
refused any of us, no matter what time
Ire called upon you to assist us. We,
therefore, present you with this purse
as a token of our respect ; not for its
intrinsic value, but to show our grati-
tude to you for assistance in times past.
- We do hope that you and your dear
companion and -family may be long
epared among us and that the Giver of
all good may bless you and yours with
long life and prosperity, is the prayer of
your friends. gr. Campbell was taken
by surprise and could hardly control
his feelings, however, he made an
appropriate reply, after which the
baskets were opened and a table spread
ia the orchard, which groaned under
the burden of good things provided by
the ladies of the neighborhood. The
organ was brought out to the green and
was presided over by Mies O'Connor, of
Brussels, in her usual good style, after
which the young people repaired to the
barn and engaged in various emir-ge-
n:tents. All went home well pleased
with the eveping's entertainment. —ONE

dent near Qu'Appelle, Northwest Ter-
ritory. He had been ploughing in the
field, and was apparently about to take
the plow out of the ground when light-
ning struck him' dead, also three horses
attached to the plow. As he did not
reach the house at night his sister, who
had recently come up from Ontario to
keephouse for, him, thought he had
taken refuge in a, neighbor house and

—The annual commencement exer-
cises of the Wesleyan Ladies' College,
were held in the Centenary church,
Hamilton, on Wednesday evening last
week, and a bright and pretty scene the
crowded auditorium and platform pre-
sented, when the time came for opening
the interesting proceedings. Half hid-
den by the profusion of coneervatory
plants and flowers, with which the plat-
form was decorated, the fair young stu-
dents of the class of '90 awaited their
turn to be called forward and receive
from the hands of one or other of the
gentletnen selected by the chairman to
perform that pleasing office the gold
medals and other prizes, the reward of
their year's assiduity in study.

a gold medal for psychology, one for
evidences of Christianity, and also the

rules of the college prevented her from
receiving,
—Not long ago the death of J. Ham-
ilton Ressey, a young Hamilton man who
went to China with the Taylor mission
band, was recorded. Now the sad in-
telligence has been received that Wm.
M. Seater, another of the missionaries

pleurisy, which brought death. Mr.
Racey was 27 years of age.
—Four young men of Janeville, near
Ottawa, of ages varying from 16 to 26
years, recently discovered an aged
worn out horse on the highway,glander-
ed and suffering. The horse was thrown
down by a stunning blow on the head
from a large stone. A rock WOA placed
on the head, the four culprits stood off,
and for half an hour they made the ani-
mal a target for their missiles, doge be-
ing encouraged to tear the poor beast.
The next thing they did was to set fire
to the tail and mane. Further opera-
tions were discontinued owing to the
appearance of a farmer on the scene.
The boys were fined $8.30 each.
—At the Berlin county court, a couple
of weeks ago, an action by Jonathan
Shier, farmer, of Woodham, against J.
H. Gorman & Co., grocers and fruit

—The baccalaureate sermon to the
members of the graduating class of
Brantford Ladies' College, the oldest
Presbyterian Ladies' College in the Do-
minion, was preached last Sabbath night
in Zion church, by Rev. Dr. Cochrane,
governor of the college. His subject
was, What is Truth? based upen Pro-
verbs x-xm, 23, "Buy the truth and sell
it not." The discourse abounded in wise
counsels and inspiring thoughts. The
seven graduates, who sat immediately
in front of the pulpit, were addressed at
the close in fitting and solemn terms.
The closing exercises begun last week
finishing on Tuesday evening this week.
The college, under Miss Lee, the effi-
cient lady principal, has, during the
year, reached a high standard of scholl:
arship. _
—The Deaf Mute Association of Ots-
tario opened its third biennial convention
in Toronto on Saturday. The organiza-
tion is composed almost entirely of deaf
mutes who have graduated from the
Institution for the Deaf and Dumb at
Belleville, which for so many years has
been the great training school for those
in Ontario suffering frotn the depriva-
tion of hearing. Of what incalculable
good the school has been may be gather-
ed from the fact that during these years
800 pupils have gone through its course
of training for the battle of life. That
battle is hard enough for men and
women with all their faculties, but
how much more desperate- must the
conflict be for those deprived of speech
and hearing. Rev. Mr. Mann, a deaf
mute from Cleveland, Ohio. opened the
convention with prayer in the mute
language.
—A man named Hiram Foster has
been committed for trial at the next
assizes by the London Police court,
charged with obtaining money under
false pretences. Numerous legal dactia
ments, papers, letters and photographs
were found on his person by the police.
He represents himself to be from Balti-
more, Maryland, and claims to be in-
terested in an alleged estate in England,
which has been left to several branches
of the Foster family, and had a docu-
ment in his possession purporting to be
from a Baltimore lawyer, offering him
$50,000 for his claims. He has been
visiting several " Fosters " in the vicin-
ity of London, alleging that they were
his relatives and heirs to the estate and
asking assistance of them in order to go
to Nova Scotia to look up family
recads. His memorandum book shows
that he has obtained between $500 and
$900 in this manner, although only 170
was found on him when arrested.
There were two indictments laid against
him, one by George McPherson, of;
Sarnia, and the other by E. E. Smith,
postmaster of White Oak, both,
connected with the Foster family.
Foster is a sharp -looking fellow of about
30 years of age. He is thought to have
swindled a large namber of people lin
this way. 'Among them are Mr. 11.
Cameron, Port Huron ; -Geo, McPherson,
Sarnia; Jas. Foster, Fingal; S. A.
SmithGlenward ; H. B. Stnith, Glen -
ward; E. E. Smith, White Oak, and
others connected with the " Foster "
families.
and thinks the conversation is over and
resumes his walk, and the person who
has accosted him starts to walk with him
he will immediately stop again; or, if
he finds it necessary, will hail a passing
stage or caeor go into a convenient shop.
He will not permit himself for a moment
to be seen walking along the street with
anybody whoss4 appearance would excite
criticism among his friends. This, of
course, states his attitude while out in
the world to people of inferior social
position."—[Kate Field's Washington.
A Hairless Horse.
Now and then a very curious specimen
is found among the deserts of Australia.
The oddest of these that I ever saw, says
a writer in Forest and Stream, was a
huge, ungainly beak without a hair
upon it. It was cut out of a wild herd
and roped by a stallion hand, who sold
it for a -drink and a plug of tobacco to
some tnen riding the road past the home-
stead. The latter tamed the hairless
horse, taught it a few commonplace
tricks and showed it all over the colo-
nies. He is' eaid to nave -taken $100,000
thongh he spent it as faseas he got
it.
I, saw the animal many times. It
was rather will shaped, having no mane,
but} a high neck and chest. It had
something of the appearance of horses
in antique sculptures or bronzes. Its
skin was perfectly smooth and shiny
and a dark mottled brown in color, and
the poor thing seemed intelligent and
docile.
Side Whiskers;
Side -whiskered men are seldom seen
in young and -busy communities. There
is a good reason for it. Side whiskers
are expensive. They make a man look
dignified, and lead him to cultivate slow
ways and a careful style of costume. In
order to keep up first-class .side
whiskers, a man rnust have leisure and
money. If he get a up early and rushes
around town in a bob -tailed coat, he will
look out of place, and people will stare
at him with pained curiosity. Atlarita
as yet has very few side -whiskered men.
They will come in Vine.When we have
more wealth and leisure ihere will be a
lot of solid old fellows here sunning their
mutton -chops on the promenade. But
we must wait a while.—[Atlanta Con-
stitution.
