`Death Of Rev. J. W. liodgins. --
Rev. James W. liodgins, until recent-
ly the rector of St. Pauls church, in
-Stratford, 'died about 8.30 Monday
morning after an, illness etxending,
over many months. He was in his
64th year, baying been born on July
5th, 1855, at Lucati, the son of the
late William N. Hodgins, and grand-
• son of James Hodgins, .P., one of
the first settlers of Middlesex He re-
'ceiteed his education at the !Western
University, and Huron College, Lon-
don being ordained deacon hi 1883, and
priest in 1884. After remaining at
his first charge, that of Bayfield, for
five Years, Mr. Hodgins- came to St.
,Thoinas church, Seaforth. Here he
remainedtfrom 1888 to 1903, And then
removed to Trinity Church, Chatham,
where he rerneined for four' Years. He
was rural dean of Huron during his
stay in Seaforth. It, was efroni Chat --
ham that Mr.liodgins wentato Stratford
as rector of St. Paul's. church. He
preached his farAell sermon there on
the anniversary of 'his -earning, Jan-
uary 27th, 1918, He is --survived by

The Heat Fly_ tn. McKilktp.—Conside
erable damage and loss has been sus-
tained to cattle in the districts' ser -
rounding tucan and London this sea-
son by a peat called the Heal or Kis-
eing Fly, but we were not aware. that
the pest had made its way up to this
district. until -Saturday morning last
when Mr. „John Beige, of the first
Concession 'of McKillop, brought one
ihto the -Expositor Office, which he
had captured that morning on one of
the cows in his herd. The fly is not
unlike the common grasshePper in.
appearance, but is darker in color and
much larger both in body and wings.
Mr. Beige states that one fly will
stampede a whole herd • of cattle, the
buzzing sound it makes seems to in-
still the same fear into the cattle in
the vicinity as the bite does to the
animal on which the fly lights. A
herd will be quietly grazing when
suddenly their. heads will .be thrown
up and then thetr tails, andathey start
away on a mad gallop, running blind-
ly against any object met, until they
fall exhausted, or reach a dark cover-
ing. The fly, apparently will not en-
ter a barn and does not attack in the
evening, and- several days may elapse
between one visit and its reappear-
ance, and a peculiar feature is that no
other animals except ,cattle are .effect-
ed by it. We hope Mr. Beige has
captured the only member of the pest
in this district, as not only does it
cause a heavy pecuniary loss,- but
might easily cause logs- of life *to any
person on the farm or even on the
roads, should .they nnex.pectedly be'
.overtaken by a -stampeding. 'herd.

Farm for the past six or seven years, I
Alfred' Baeker disposed of the .outfit
this week to Mr. Walter ,Rose, a well
known financier of Teeswater, who will
get nossession on September lst. The
litter was the owner of the Teeswater
eleetric light -plant and as the 'village
bought it he will devote his whole at-
tention to poul ry at Brussels. He is
Iprobably the best breeder of White
Leghorns in the Province -end intends
improving and enlarging the capacity
of the fine premises now secured. Mr.
Rose also bought the comfortable brick
residence of Mrs. George Rogers, ad-
joining his farm and will have every-
thing as handy as *e proverbial pock-
et in a shirt. The 15 acres of farm •
land aft Baeker owns near the old salt
works is not included in the purchase.
It is said Mr. Rose' S mother, wlio is an
invalid, and sister, now residing in
Mitcbelletvill also come to Brussels in
thd near future. Mr. Baeker has no
notion of removoing from town we are
pleased to state, as he still maintains
many•anterests and only disposed of
his poultry plant because he had not
the time to devote to jt; He has ad
a good business this season in the gg
and poultry line.

Gored be Cow -.—Mrs. Thomas Pen -
warden. ever 80 years of age, and
Mrs. 'William Smith, of the 9th con-
cession of Usborne, narrowly escaped
being gored t - o' death by a vicious
cow on -Sunday evening, 3-u1y. 14th.
It appears'that Mrs. Penwarden .went
out into the pasture field to get her
cow -to milk and when driving her a-
way from a number of other cattle a
newly calved cow attacked her, throw-
ing ber down and comenced goring
her. Mrs.. W. Smith, daugther of
Mrs. Penwarden, noticed the vicious'
brute attacking her mother, immed-
iately went to her assistance, when the
cow turned an her -and used her- the
same as her mother. Mrs. Smith,
however, managed to get away from
the enraged brute and was car-
rying and dragging her mother to and
under the fence, which is several rods
away. Just as Mrs. -Smith had got
her mother under the fence when the
brute of a cow made a second attack
on her, but Mrs. Smith managed. to
beat her off. Both women were nearly
stripped of all their clothing and it
was nearly two hours before assis-
tance arrived. Mrs. Penwarden sus-
tained a, fractured hip and was other-
wise badly mangled, and it doubtful
if she reeovers from the effect of her
