The constituency is naturally Con-

for r•Mr. Dal/14 Marshall, the Conser-
vative candidate, by a, majotity of
77. Under the ciroumstances no other
reedit should be eipected. The con-
stituency has been represented by a
Coneervative, Mr. A. Ingram, Ter half
a century. Besides this, Mr. Hep-
burn, the candidate unanknourely se-
lected by the Liberals, retired from
the contest only two days befpre
the nomination, on account of ails
name having -been connected with a
hotel scandal, and the Liberals had
to take up another candidate in the
perSon of Ma. Granville Haight. But
for this unfortunate circumstance it
is doubtful If the Conservatives
woeld ,have held the constituency,- as
at the previous election Mr. Hep-

the strongest man in the Conserva-

The students in Toronto. or some
ot them, have been kicking' up hist
links and have been amustag them-
selves purnelling each other in re-
gular Doaneybrook style. On Mon.:
• day forenoon last while the sopho-
mores of' the medical college were in-
itiating the frehhmen, a eow was
startpd between the classes, which
r6ulted in several broken heads ancl
other injuries and in, which the fresh-
men, got the worst of it. In the af-
ternoon ' of the same day a scrap itec-
eurred between the first year Merl
In arts- and the first year. men in
sbience over the possession of a foot
ball. _This was much more serious
-than, the other. About three hundred
were engaged in the melee, which
overflowed on to the adloining streets,
stopped the street bars,and resulted
ceneiclerable injury to private
property besides considerable inlerr
to many of the contestants. It is a.
disgrace to the Province and a re-
proach to its institutions of learning
that .these rows oehoule be of equal
frequent occurrence. One would think
that young men such as those who
attend our universities -should have
more sense and greater control aver
their paselons than to thus disgrace
themeelves by taking part in, such
rowdy and unseethly: exhibitions.'They
should be taught wisdone and gen-
tlemanly deportment by discipline.

'Captain James Mitchell on Saturday
, afternoon, about ten miles northwest
or the ChantryeIslareds: The schoon-
eh was bound down the lake from
Stokes- Bay to Kincardine with a
cargo qf lumber, and it Is uneer-
_stood that owing to the.strong north-
west gale the captain decided to
seek shelter behind the Chantry Is-.
lands until the wind should subside.
The captain had gone aloft to tstove
some of, the topsails, when a theevy
sea struck the vessel, throwing her
nearly on .her beam ends and 'tossing „

A Pleasant Event. -A most enjoy-
able • afternoon and evening was
spent by the children, grand-child-
reh and a few old friends at the home
of Mr. and Mrs. ROL Johnston, On
Monday, September 24th, when they
celebrated theannivereary a their
• fiftieth wedding day. Mr. and Stra.
Johnson were Inarried Sept. 24th,
1856, by the Rev. Mr. Campbell, Met
odist minister then stationed at Clin-
ton. Tileir wedding trip was taken
from the home of Mrs. Johnston'
father, Mr. BroWn, to Clinton and
back to the little bark covered log
cabin, in theebush, in a lumber wagon,
with the mud axle -tree deep. Their
pathway Through life, however, did
net centinue so soft and many tare the
hard and rugged roach; over which
they have passed during these 50
years. Though the way was sorneie
times rough, they have enjoyed much
of life's genial sunshine and if we
were to. judge them by the health
and strength they still enjoy, 'we
must sayi they have' stood the (jolting
well. Mrs. Johnston's bridesmaid, her
eldest sister,' though still living,
wah not able to be prasent. erbe fol-
lowing friends of their thildhOod
were eresent to extend their heartie
est greetings, namely Mrs. Boyd
and Mrs. Morrison, of McKillop, and
Mrs. Miller, of Clinton, who were al,
so present at their wedding, and Mr.
Johnston, a brother, -a,nd his wife, of
Clinton. Probably the meat ,Unique
thing in connection wtih this gold -
eh wedding .is the fact that !not a
break has yet been made in the fa,m-
Hy and all the children were present,
one, Mrs. Blackbrough, having come
the way from Montana. The oth-
ers are Nathaniel, of Hullett ; Joseph,
Mrs W. J. Parks, Robert, =and Mrs.
W. Farrow, of East Wawa,nosh; Mrs.
Chan. Armstrong, of Shelburne; Mrs/
Brown, of Morris, and 'Wm,. of CB4ytiT.
A very dainty 'repast was spread on
th,e lawn, when their pastor, Rev.S..
Anderson,' and wife had the pleasure f
of taking tea with Mr. and Mrs.
*Johnston on the old homeanade table
from which 50 years ago they partook
of their wedding breakfast. A de-
lightful programme was rendered
by the children and grandchildren;
during the evening and a moat af-
fectionately worded address, accom-
panied by a well filled purse of gold
and two "ofd arm chars" were are-
sented to Mr. and Mrs. Johnston as
okens of the 'love and esteem cher-
shed for tem by their children. The

Was one of the moat eminent physic-
ians in Canada. He was a native of
Osgoode, 'Russel county, Ontario, and
the remains were taken there for
burial. He was well knwon In var-
ious parts of Ontario, particularalY
in Huron county, Brimfield being
his first place to practise. In Mon-
treal he made a specialty of nervous
diseases. Frequently- people came
long distances to consult him. Dr.
Stewart got his degree in medicine
at McGill Univerpity, and subsequente
ly• continued .hia studies at Edin-
burg, London, Berlin and Thalia. Hei
was L.R.C.P. and ta,c.s. of Edin-

was professor of mataria medico, and
therapeutics at McGill. For some
time he was head physician at 'Mon-
treal General Hospital, and at the

tal became ph.ysician In • chief of that
institution. At the second Pan-Am-
erican Medical Congress, held at
