THE FLAX MILL.—For some year. now
the Seaforth flax mill has been standing idle,
despite the fact that the market for the pro-
ducts of the mill have been extremely favor-
able. Last spring it was expected that the
mill would be started again, but, through
some misunderstanding, the negotiations fell
through, at a time whin it was too date in
the season for other parties •to take 'hold of
it. This is an enterprise which employs a
large number of hands during the ummer
season, and among a class of people ho are
very often unable to procure steady ork at
that time of the year. As well as the
amount of money paid out in wages to the
employes, a large sum of money is di tribut-
ed among the farmers in the neigh orhood
for flax, and from this,we also undo btedly
reap a benefit. A flai mill is 'mit uoh an
industry as we now require in 8aforh, and
we would like to see the couriitl nd the
board of trade take this matter up now.
Now is the time to look into the thing, and
if it is possible to get it riinning, awl, every-
thing will be in readinees , when the season
opens in the spring,and no hitchea o disap-
pointments will •then prevent our rea ing the
benefits of a 'live industry.

officers took place with the followin result:
President, Dr. J. M. Dunsmore, St atford ;
vice-president, Dr. Burrows, Seder h ; sec-
retary, Dr. Shaw, Clinton. Dr. Me enzie,
of Monkton, read a paper on " Li htning

He dealt with the best methods of resus-
citating a patient who had received a
lightning stroke which had not prov d fatal.

j
the _diagnosis of sinallpbx ; "'Dr. Shaw,

rich ; Woods' of BaYfleld ; McCallum, of
Clinton, andRobertson and Dunmore, of
Stratford. In the discuesion many inter-
esting points were brought out on the above

LOCAL BRIEFS.—At the assize court in
Goderich last week, Mrs. Burns, of Bayfield;
was given damages to the extent of $350
and costs against W. J. Clark, formerly of
Seaforth. This was an action for malicious
prosecution. It will be remembered that
over a year ago Clark had ;Mrs. Burns ar-
rested on a charge of attempting to defraud
him out of money due for bread furnished
by Clark to Mrs., Burns' husband. The
case has been in court several times. --Mise
Robinson, of Harpurhey, left with us the
other day, some delicious peaches which
grew on a tree in her garden. ' The fruit
has a delicious .flavor, and . from the one
tree Miss Robinson had four buahels of very
fine peaches. Peach growing, as a rule, is
not very successful in this districts but Miss
Robinson seems to have solved the myetery.
The biggest difficulty, she says, was keep-
ing the boys away. --Dr. Belden has dis-
posed of his dental practice here to Mr. F.
W. Tweddle, late of Brussels, but formerly
of Seaforth. Dr. Belden intends' going to
Toronto to practice. While regretting to

and other relatives were born, and he also
saw the house in which Mrs. Broadfoot was
born. He was much pleased with what he
saw, was treated kindly by every person
whom he met, and returned to Canada with
a much better op.nion of the old land
than he had before he visited it.—
Between twelve and 0110 o'clock on
Monday, the fire alarm called the major
ity of people _away from their dinners. For
tunately, it was only a false alarm, as a tire
with each a high wind blowing, might hay

under the auspiCes of the South Huron and

held on the spacious new growl& of the

Wedneaday next. The Seaforth show last
year was by all odds the most successful
held in the county, and this year promises
to eclipsei3ven that of last year Reports
from different parts of the county would
indicate that in addition to ,ft very large
attendance, the number of exhibits in all
departments will be much larger than on
any former occasion. The society has pur-
chased additional ground, so that the lpiece
allotted to cattle Will now be sufficieptly
large to accommodate all exhibitore. In
addition to an unusually large prize list,
there is an excellent programme of special
attractions, including speed contests,- eta.
With the excellent half -mile track
of the turf association at the disposal
of the society, these speed contests should
be in themselves a very strong drawing
card. Don't fail to be in Seaforth on the
days of the fair. In addition to the inany
special prizes offered at the fair, Mr. Philip
Murray will give a special prize of a Niagare
vapor bath cabinet, worth $6, for the best

also offers two good special prizes. He will

• A GRIM RELIC.—John Berry, while cut-
ting a drain through the rear of his prem-
ises, bordering on what is called the little
swamp, on the Blind Line, Hay, came across
a skeleton or the part of one. Some of , the
bones were partially decayed and others in
a good state of preservation. Some time ago
a cedar tree some three feet in diameter had
been cut down, and the stump remained.
This had to be removed, as it was on a
line with the drain, and some three feet of
excavation had to be made to reach the level
and remove the stump. While doing this
the discovery was made. The bones or
skeleton were laid upon pieces of cedar four
in number, side by side, about eeven feet
long, evidently out and put in position to
lay these remains on at a date so remote as
to perhaps count a hundred years or more.
It is supposed that they are the remains of
an Indian, and that the bodies of the de-
parted were disposed of, as is the custom of
later years, by laying them on top of the
ground with their accoutrements. The fact
of the tree having grown three feet in diam-
eter, and the skeleton being found four feet
from the surface, makes it evident that a
*century must nearly have passed: To find
the bones and wood in a good state of pre-
severation makes the subject and find a
mystery for solution. Are they the remains
of some old Huron Chief? The curious have
in this a °see for investigation.
