brick yard club by one goal to none.
Mrs. Allison is opening out a choice
line of Fall millinery. Miss Wilson is
in charge, having returned from, Toronto
last week.
Mrs. Masters, who has been the Ernest
of her sister, Mrs. J. R. Williams, for a
short time past, started for Detroit last
Monday, on her return trip.
Tbe GorrieBrass Band have just pur-
chased a fine cornet from Whaley,
Royce & Co., Toronto. The instrument
will be used by Mr. R. Ashton, who is
making rapid progress as a cornetist.
The Misses Mary and Aggie Stirling,
of Stanley township, were visiting
friends in Gorrie, Fordwich, and New-
bridge last week. As children they
lived with their parents on the Gildner
farm, -13th con., some 15 years ago.
Mr. Jas. Johnston, of Pahnerston, for-
merly a merchant in Gorrie, died in
Palmerston on Sept. 8rd. About six
months ago he went to Toronto to have
an operation performed and has been
gradually sinking ever since. He was
a shrewd business man and had a wide
social connection in Western Ontario.
Mr. Hopkirk, the post office inspector,
paid the Gorrie Post Office an official
visit last week, and was greatly pleased
with the management of Miss McIntyre.
The previous week, Mr. Duckworth, the
inspector of telegraphy, visited his de-
partment in the office and expressed
gratification at the efficient work done
The brick work of the new Foresters'
hall is to be commenced this week. A
sand bee was held on Tuesday at which
Messrs. N. and W: J. McLaughlin, G.
Walker, Drs. Tuck and Armstrong dis-
played considerable muscle, although
some of them got business calls which
took them away from the pit, much (?)
to their regret.
Mr. John Haskett passed through
here on Tuesday on his- return home to
Lakelet after. oopieasant visit with his
mother and other relatiyes in Biddulph
and -London'. While in Lucan he en-
joyed s. hand -shake with Messrs. Wm.
Porte, "Billy" Hutchins (new M. P. for.
North Middlesex), Hiigess, Cain, and
others of the magnates of that neighbor-
hood who wore his acquaintances ai
young men in the early days. "The
Warrior" appears to have been greatly
rejuvinated by his trip.
Messrs. W. S. Bean and W. H. Clegg
are in Goderich this week serving on
the jury, the assizes being in session
there. Mr. W. Strong, of the 12th con.,
is also absent on a similar mission.
The Clinton News ...Record says:—Messrs.
Clegg and Bean, of Gorrie, passed
through Clinton to Goderich on Monday.
The gentlemen were callers at this
office. The last time we met Mr. Clegg
was a couple -of yeas ago when on a
visit to St. John. N. B. Time has not
made any change on Mr. Clegg's hand-
some appearance or gentlemanly bear-
ing.
His many friends will regret to learn
of the death of S. P. Dorland, Esq.,
which occurred at his residence in
Brooke, near Owen Sound, on Wednes-
day of last week, aged nearly 75 years.
Deceased was for many years a resident
of Gerrie, where he made himself wide-
ly known through the deep interest he
took in religious work. Previous to
coming to Gerrie he lived in Exeter,
near which village he owned a farm.
The family was held in the highest es-
teem here, and Mrs. Dorian(' and Miss
Wilby have the sympathy of all in their
great sorrow.
Mr. William Hueston, of this village,
met with a very unfortunate and painful
accident on Monday afternoon last,
which will lay him up for a long time
and probably leave him perooanently
lame. He had just finished seeding and
had driven out of the field when he left
his horses standing while he assisted
his brother to hitch up his -team to a
wagon. At this his little 4 -
year -old nephew climbed unto the seed-
er unnoticed and started the horses.
Seeing at once that the little fellow
would be killed if the team ran away,
"Will" turned suddenly and sprang to
the horses' head, only a few steps away,
but in doing so he gave his left knee a
bad wrench which snapped the knee
cap, breakieg it off horizontally. Dr.
Tuck was soon on the spot and did
everything possible for the young man
who was suffering intensely. Mr. Hues -
ton will be confined- t3 his room for a
long time, and it is earnestly hoped
that the break may knit together so
that nothing further than a stiffness of
the joint may result.
The Mail says of Parker's Dye Works,
Toronto : " No longer is it necessary 'to
give away, or sell for a trifling amount,
the partly worn goods when they can be
cleaned and dyed so as to present as
good an appearance as new, and last
double the time they would otherwise.
This firm have now a most enviable
reputation and are distinguished from
other and less comptent dyers by the
fine work they turn out." We cannot
say any too much for R. Parker & Co.,
the well-known dyers, of Toronto. We
advise our readers to look through their
wardrobe and have their soiled or faded
garments cleaned or dyed to look like
new. Agents: A. B. Allison, Gorrie ;
Jas. Fox, Wroxeter; J. C. Bell, Ford-
wich. Orders left at any of the above
agencies will receive prompt attention.
Sad Death in Detroit.
Early on the morning of Sept. 2nd,
Mrs. William A. Leech passed away at
her home in Detroit, after only a few
hours illness, at the early age of 82
years. Her home was next to that of
her sister, Mrs. Ed. W. Leech, and the
two sisters had spent the evening to-
gether, after which deceased went home.
In a short time she was heard moaning
as if in pain, and Mr. and Mrs. "Eddie"
(as he is familiarly known in Gorrie)
were speedly at her side and found her
in convulsions from the effects of which
she died. Fearing that her strange
disease might be cholera the Health
Officer was- notified and he ordered 'a
post modem examination which showed
that she had, by some means taken at
least 6/10tlas of a grain of strychnine.
How the poison was taken is a mystery.
There is not the faintest suspicion of
suicide as her life was one of contented
happiness and her surroundings the
pleasantest. She had been taking pink
pills which she got while on a visit to
her parents and friends in Bluevale and
in this section a couple of weeks ago,
but it is not possible that a sufficient
quantity of the deadly drug could have
been taken in this way. The jury's
verdict was strongly against the theory
of suicide, as are all her friends, yet
how she partook of the strychnine
which caused her death is a mystery.
Her sister is prostrated with grief and
the many relatives and friends, both rn
Detroit and in this neighborhood are
profoundly sorrowful over the sudden
closing of this young and beautiful life.
She leaves a child and a sorrowing hus-
band, who was absent from home at the
time.
Wroxeter.
Wroxeter council met on the evening
of Tuesday, 20th inst.
Present, Reeve Sanders, Councillors
W. Lee, J. B. Vogt and Thos. Hemp-
hill. Minutes of previous meeting read
and approved.
An account from Martin & Adair, Ger-
rie, for cedar sidewalks, amounting to
826.83, was passed and a debenture
drawn for the same.
On motion of Messrs. Lee and Vogt
the reeve was empowered to have the
bond of the collector properly executed,
and to have the roll handed to him.
On motion of Messrs. Hemphill and.
Vogt the council adjourned to meet on
the third Tuesday of October, or at the
calf of the Reeve.

If the amount of apple butter, jelly
and cider is correspondingly great to
the quantity of apples that pass through
here to the mill at Clifford, the people
in this vicinity will have an over dose
of the ingredients. Load after load goes i
by, and it is surprising how the CM-
fordites can attend to the wants of all.

- There will be a literary contest in our
lodge on Saturday night. As the long
nights are here, we expect a series of
interesting, in tive programmes
henceforth.
There is a greiteal of sickness lurk.
ing round here. ltme of the yetinger
people are afflicted; and Mrs. J. Rolston
and Mrs. Mahood are seriously ill, both
being undermedical treatment. LATER.
—As we go to press we learn that Mrs.
Mahood passed " away on Tuesday
evening.
Owing to 'the very disagreeable and
wet weather of Tuesday last, the repoat
regarding Mr. Beattie's death was not
extensively circialated. The reeidloOras
that the feneral was not so large as it
otherwise would have been. The re-
mains were interred in the cemetery
here after the preaching of an appro.
priate and impressive sermon in the
church by the pastor, Rev. Mr. Potter.
Our carpenter, Mr. Cook, is' employed
by Mr. Dulmage to -day repairing the
windows and otherwise beautifying the
front of the store.- The work done adds
much to the appearanceof the store and
reflects credit on the workman. -
Quite a singular accident happened
one of Mr. Adam Scott's horses cul Sun-
day. It appears it kicked _at a -dog
which was in -pursuit of it, but missing
the dog struck the fence with such
force as to break its leg. The animal,
which was a fairly good one, will doubt-
less have to be shot.
Miss Lottie Hovey, accompanied by
Miss Crittenden, of Blyth, arrived home
on Friday.
Mr. Brewster, brother of Mrs. Carlton,
of this place, spent Saturday night here.
He then drove to Wingham, from which
place he +urposed taking the train to
London to attend the exhibition there
this week.
Some weeks ago reference was made
in a rather obscure way to what was
supposed to be a case of theft. About
that time Mr. Robt. Scott, thresher,
had a watch and waist coat stolen while
at work at Mr. W. Montgomery's. For
weeks all theories were advanced as to
its disappearance and no doubt Mr. S.
had abandoned all hopes of recovering
it. Last Wednesday morning the watch
and waist coat were found by some of
the milkmen in a vehicle at Springbank
factory. Some maintain it was hidden
merely as a jest ; others that the crimi-
nars conscience convicted him and con-
strained him to return it. These are,
however, only people's opinions, but the
real cause of its mysterious disappear-
ance and return may never be unearthed.
Second Line Items.
On Sept. 7th occurred the marriage of
Mr. Henry M. Roadhouse, 2nd con., and
Miss Elizabeth, daughter of the late
James Armstrong, Esq. The ceremony
was performed by Rev. Mr. Brownlee at
the residence of the bride's sister, Mrs.
B. Scott, in Gorrie. The bride was sup-
ported by her cousin, Miss Eliza Len-
nox, while Mr. Ed. Damn
acted as groomsman. AF
gifts were presented to
happy -couple enjoyed a

day last.
Quite a large number from our com-
munity availed themselves of the cheap
rates to Toronto to take in the exhibi-
tion.
Mr. and Mrs.. J. M. Armstrong left
last week for Toronto, where Mr. A.
enters ripen his fourth year atthe medi-
cal faculty of Toronto University. We
wish him success.
Mr. John Faust has bought a new
safety bycicle, and can be seen making
trips to various points. The machine is
a slick one and John will000n become
an expert wheeisman. But the girls
all went to know why he has furnished -
it with a larep.
Messrs. B. Cooper and A. Spotton
took in the London exhibition this -
week. But there is something more at-
tractive than the exhibition about
Lon-
don,
Mr. John Hosey has acquired theser-
vices of a youth from the Stratford Or-
