Mr. Orlando Wade, of the 4th con., is suffering at present from a badly swol- len hand from blood -poisoning. , The trouble started in one of his fingers but speedily spread until it extended to his elbow. It was at one time feared that amputation would be necessary, but he is now somewhat better. A hotly contested football match was played on the Gorrie grounds last Tues- day evening between teams representing Wroxeter and this village. The game resulted in a draw, neither side securing a goal after playing until dark. The visitors had the best of the game during the early part, Gorrie's goal being in danger on more than one occasion, but later on the tide turned and the struggle was mainly at the visitors' end of the field. Both teams had strong defence players, however, and neither side was able to score. The best of feeling pre- vailed throughout. The fact was devel- oped that notwithstanding the depar- ture of some of the best of last year's players, Gorrie will, with practise, put a strong team in the field this year. The other week our village contem- porary undertook to " set down solid" on Mr. Dan. McGillicuddy, of the God- erich Signal by publishing an item from the Hamilton Spectator to the effect that the Goderich editor was once a Fenian. But the Vidette man soon dis- covered that he had sat upon a very sharp tack, as the following, from week before last's Signal, shows: " The fact that man cannot be equally success- ful at different occupations has been demon- strated in the little village of Gorrie. There, a young man who had been successful as a street scavenger and bone -yard apostle was seized of the idea thatiie could run a newspaper. Retried the scheme for a number of years, but as his education was so defective that when he re- ferred to a limiting episode be spelled dog with a double "g" and trigger with only one the people got disgusted and sant for another editor to start a rival journal. As a result the bone -yard apos- tle will now have to return to his first love. This is not from the Hamilton Spectator; it is straight goods." Serious ;Fire at Harriston. A fire broke out about 2.30 o'clock Sunday morning last in the large furni- ture factory of Dowling. and Leighton, Harriston, destroying the principal part of the machinery and workmen's tools, dry- -lumber and furniture in course of completion. The firemen, headed by the proprietor, "ex -Mayor Dowling, did excellent work and succeeded in confin- ing it to one or two sections of the build- ing. Fortunately the morning was calm, else the loss would have been terrible, the factory being in a central part of the town. It is the largest -in Harriston, employing`OE number of -hands Ma turn- ing out a lot of stuff, shipping both east and west. The loss is a serious one both to the firm and town, so many men being thrown out of employment, but hopes are entertained that the factory will soon be in running order again. There is some insurance, but at present the amount is not known. The cause of the fire is not known. Obituary. The past week has been fraught with piognant sorrow to many homes in How - ick. The hand of death has been laid upon four households and four families have been bereft of the love and guid- ance of a mother's faithful care. MRS, AARON MARTIN, Mrs. Martin had been for some time a sufferer from cancer and had undergone one or two operations in the hope of effecting a cure, but the fatal malady had taken -too firm a hold upon her sys- tem and the best skill and care was un- able to ward off for a longer period the end, which came peacefully on Saturday morning last. Deceased was a sister of Mr. A. Snyder, of the 5th con., and the large funeral which accompanied her re- mains - to their last resting place near Mayne, attested to the high esteem in which she was held. MRS. FRANCIS CLEGG. This tidy had been in excellent health up to almost the time of her death, and her sudden demise was quite unexpected. She leaves a family of - several small children, one of whom was but a few hours old, and her absence causes an aching void- in the sorrowful home from which she was called. She was a sister of Messrs James and Thomas Stephen- son and Mrs. Wade, and had a wide circle of warm friends in this township, in which she had spent most of her life. Her remains were interred in Gorrie and the town hall was packed to the doors by the immense throng who gathered to pay their last tribute and to listen to the impressive funeral discourse preached by Rev. Mr. Torrance. MRs. DAVID S. TAYLOR. On Sunday afternoon just after the burial -of Mrs. Clegg, the sad news was brought to the village that Mrs. D. S. Taylor had diedat her home on the 9th con. She had been afflicted with a tumor which caused a complica- tion of troubles that defied medical skill, and her demise was not unlooked for. Deceased was a resident of this neighborhood for a long time and had formed many warm friendships which strengthened into love as the years passed on, so that her death has caused a wide -spread - feeling of sorrow and sympathy for the bereaved ones, in the community. Memorial services were held at Mr. Taylor's residence on Mon- day evening, and the remains were ca: - ried to Berlin on the Tuesday morning train for interment in the family bury- ing plot. MRS. CYRUS HORTON. At nine o'clock on Monday morning death claimed a victim in the person of Mrs. Cyrus Horton, of Lakelet, who had only been ill since the evening previous. Besides her husband she leaves. two little children, the youngest only a few hours old. Mr. Horton has the sym- pathy of many friends in Gorrie, where he lived for several years. The funeral occurred on Wednesday and was largely attended. - Fordwich. Mr. B. S. Cook has sold the Pyke farm, just east of Gorrie, to Mr. John Clegg, of this village. Possession is to be given in the fall. The farm com- prises 47 acres and brought $2600. . The Methodist church lawn has been improved during the past week by the planting of a dozen or so of maples. It will present a beautiful appearance in a few years. Mr. Adam Hutchinson has a large addition to his fine residence, near the railway track, well under way. Mr. Wyness has added a millinery branch to his store business, and placed it in the charge of Miss Deachman, an experienced milliner. He also intends to buy wool this season. Mr. David Mahood met with - a seri- ous accident while working in Dick's mill last Tuesday morning. He was re- moving a board from the circular saw when by some means his left hand came in contact with the teeth and in a twink- ling the thumb and two of his fingers were taken off and a third finger badly torn. - Mr. B. S. Cook,, who happene 1 to be iia tie mill at the time, staunched the flow of blood with his handkerchief and assisted the young man - to Dr. Spence's where the injured members were properly dressed. Mrd Mahood is a justly popular young man and - his many friends sincerely regret his mis- fortune. - Wroxeter. Mr. John Hamilton shipped a car of fat cattle to Toronto on Monday. Mr. Fortune, veterinary surgeon, has got an assistant just now, he is very busy. Mr. Abe Paulin and wife visited Blyth on Monday. The Presbyterians have purchased two lots on Queen street. They intend to erect sheds on them. Mrs. Orr who has been very ill, is re- covering slowly. Mr. T. B. Sanders, Reeve, has been again prostrate with illness, but is now on the mend. Mr. Andrew Brown who has been a resident of thisllage for years, is about to leave with his family for the West. Your correspondent was not aware until the other evening, that Wroxeter possessed some rare musical talent. The writer sought shelter the other evening from a passing shower under the shadow of a mansion, when the strains of music caught his ear. The fair singer was performing "The Barber of Serill," and she did justice to Beethoven's matchless production. Her next effort was a simple Scotch ballad but it breathed of love, and her soul was in her voice. She sang of love "As flowers would sing if Love would lend their ears a voice." I hurried home murmuring as I went the well known lines "Full many a flower is born to blush unseen and waste its sweetness on the desert air." On Sunday 22nd inst., the Rev. Mr. Osboine, will preach in Wroxeter town hall, on "The Times of the'Gentiles." Jim is sick. He who bears this appel- ation is a descendant of Ham. In his spare moments or rather when he is not eating or sleeping, he performs the duty of an hostler at the Gofton house. He treated himself last night to one pound and a half of candies, finishing his evenings' entertainment by a dozen" and a half of red herring, and on Tuesday he was suffering from the savory compound. Dr. Brawn has purchased a fine new buggy in Guelph. It is a dandy. Mr. William Douglas is contem- plating a trip to Scotland in the near future. His heart is yearning to once more view the scenes of his childhood. Mr. Eeipper sold five road carts and two buggies last week. Pretty good work. Mr. Robt. Miller sold a fine young Clyde colt (out of one of Mr. Jas. Rit- chie's horses) rising two years old, for $110, the other day. Miss Jennie Gibson started on Tues- day last for Grand Rapids, Mich., where she intends to remain for a time. In changing Lee & Co.'s advertise- ment last week a mistake occurred in this office by which an old "copy" used in February last, was reprinted, Mr. Lee informs us that it did such good service at that time in our widely circulated columns that he has scarcely a vestige left on his shelves of the goods then advertised. The matter has been corrected in this issue and we advise our readers who are looking for snap bar- gains to read it and then give that firin a call. Mrs. Innes, Guelph, wife of Mr. Jas. Innes, M. P. is serious ill in New York, whither she went for medical treatment. Her husband is with he'-. Smuggling is again going on in the lower St. Lawrence, and a capture of gin and whiskey was made by the cus- toms officers below Quebec on Sunday last.
