After the announcement in these columns last week by Mr, Bradwin, as to the sale of this journal, you will, no doubt, be expecting a few introductory words from his successor, We have come to Blyth with three objects in view, 1st, To make en honest liveli- hood ; 2nd, To aid 1n the advancement of the village and the surrounding country ; and 8rd, To do our part in promoting everything that will bo help. ful to the best interests of the people of this community, You have in the past accorded a goodly share of patronage to TIII STANDARD and wo trust, under the new management, this will not only be re• tainod but largely increased as the carrying on of almost any business those times means a much larger cx• penditure than formerly. Our interests will be mutual as we have invested our capital here, and our best efforts will be directed toward helping the growth of everybody's income doing a legiti. mate business, The outlook of Blyth is very reassur• ring, we consider, and with the coming of the second lino of railway and the intuition of increased activity on the part of every business man and trades• man the coming years should mark a new ors of prosperity. Nothing will tend to bring this about like a spirit of unity and loyalty among the people and we sincerely desire to see these both preached and practiced. THE STAND., ARD will not be in the rear of the vanguard, we assure you, in doing our level best to keep those principles in yiew, As In the past this newspaper will continue to pursue an independent course In politics and commend or con• dernn in either party according to our judgment, Nobody will have a string on us in this matter, Tho city papers usually supply enough politics without the rural journalist using his columns along these lines to any great length, We hope to moot and become acquaint- ed with tho patrons of THE STANDARD at as early a date as possible and will be glad if you will feel free to call on ns at any time. A kinJ word about our paper spoken to a non -subscriber may prove of great benefit to tut In the extension of our business, A number of improvements aro con• templated which will add to the good name of THE STANDARD but of these we will let them speak for thernselves later. In conclusion wo solicit the hearty support of the constituency to be nerved in our advertising columns and Job'Department, which will be kept up. to•date, If you know an interesting item don't hesitate to hand it in to our office (which will be continued at the old stand) or mail it to us, It will bo highly appreciated and thankfully re- ceived, We want the news, THE STANDARD, which is now 20 years old, has got rid of its swaddling clothes and was never in butter heart than at the present. Our aim will be to increase its usefulness. Wishing our readers and Mr, Brad• win, ono and all prosperity and expect- ing to see Blyth make noteworthy advancement we will make our initial journalistic bow and take hold of the helm, J, LESLIE KERR, ,raw • Fall Fair Dates, London Sept. 7-15 Exeter Sept, 17-18 Mitchell ..........

CHAMBERS & CO., BLYTII TERRORISM IN CONTROL. Alleged Attempt on the Life of the Czar Ilimsef. He Attended funeral Masses at Pet- erhof Yesterday. More Officials Killed by the Busy Bomb -Throwers. New York, Sept. 3, --The American has the following from St, Petersburg; Revolution by reeolt is dead, Revolu- tion by terrorism is revived. Such is the 8ittaation in Russia today. The Stolypin outrage appears to be part of a gigantic plot involving the lives of all the heads of the Govern - meat from the Czar downward. Since the Crur dissolved the Douma he no longer enjoys immunity fawn the ter- rorists, Prior to the dissolution of that body the Reds did not want the Czar killed. Now his name heads the list of those marked far slaughter. Simultaneously with the attack upon Premier Stolypin's villa Saturday an at- tempt was made to enter Peterhof pal- ace and kill the Czaar. The attempt proved unsuccessful, for the palace guards, cautioned into unus- ual vigilance, arrested one of t he two would-be assassins near the palace wall, where he was crouching waiting to ef- fect an entrance. He was armed wit a bomb concealed in a basket of fruit, Later his accomplice was found inside the park crouching under the branches of a tree. Both men were quickly iden- tified as .notorious members of the Mas - cow terrorists. Czar Attending Funeral Mass. St, Petersburg, Sept. 3,—in spite of the menace of active war by the terror- ists against thoee high in authority an earnest of which was the slaying of act- ing Govornor-Beneral Von Liarski at Warsaw today, Emperor Nicholas and the Empress quitted the abetter of t he palace enclosure at Peterhof this after- noon to attend a funeral mass over the body of General Min, in the Peterhof camp, a considerable distance from the palace; but the precautions for the pro- tection of the Imperial family were ide- gaate, and the Sovereign returned to the palace without incident. Sereral of the Grand Ihlkee and delegations from all the regiments in the St. Petersburg district were present. The body of Gen- eral Min will be brought here to -mor- row on board a royal train over the spe- cial Imperial line, which is used only in journeys of the Emperor between Pe- terhof and St. Petersburg. The Semin- evsky Guard will escort the body to the regimental chapel. Officers and men of this regiment have received many com- munications threatening them with bombs and other reprisals. Girl Still Unknown. The police have failed so far to es- tablish the identity of the girl who as- sassinated General Mien, and whom Dime. Mien seised and held after she bad fired five shote into the body of bar victim. A man committed suicide in a hotel in St. Petersburg nes the Moscow railway station to -day, leaving a let- ter explaining that his act was due to chagrin over his failure to accomplish a certain political assassination, The Central Committee of the revo- lutionaries have drawn up a proclarn. `tion which declares that if the Gov- ernment does not immediately niter its policy acts like that of yesterday, will be carried out to the utmost extreme, and that Government representatives will he killed by the hundreds. The principal military and civil offi- cer, of Odessa hare resigned, including General Kaulbara, the Governor•General of the city. Every effort is being made to organ- ise a huge outbreak in the south. The labor and revolutionary riots in the die. mete of Bakhout and Augbepoka have been greatly understand in the official accounts. The revolt is still unsuppres- sed and during the past twelve days 81 persona have been kRled, including 17 sol- dier", and 250 wounded, In Warsaw, Skelton, the Governor- General, days ago, warned all generals and officials that the only chance of saving their lives was to remain at home sever leaving the house. Threatening letters reach him every day ,and the bowie le picketted with guntrds. Bombs are being made everywhere, Enough to destroy an entire city were found In the cellars of an unused store In Warsaw. The Social Democrats and revolu- tionists have issued a circular ordering workmen to refuse to pay rent and to answer the demands for payment by terrorism. To -day's news reports that two bridges over the Volga hale been burned -and an attempt was made to burn a third. Several manore and much agricultural produce have been burned in the provinces.

August Crop Bulletin a, The following information concerning the present condition of Agriculture • in the Province hns'bcen issued by the On- tario Department of Agriculture: Fall Wheat—The unusually open win- ter was most trying to fall wheat, but the crop picked up wonderfully in the spring, and improved steadily until cut- ting. It was harvested under ravorable conditions, the straw standing up well, and the weather being dry and bright. The quality of the grain, as a rule, Is plump and well up to weight, and the yield per acre is considerably over the average. Very little rust was reported. Spring Wheat—This variety of wheat is not much in favor, more especially in the western part of the Province. A good yield was promised, Several cor- respondents stnted that "Wild Goose" was the only variety of spring wheat now grown. Barley—A large yield of plump grain, ,much of it discolored, but all of it geed for feeding to live Stock (which It now its chief use in Ontario), is the rec mi of the barley crop of 1906. Oats—This crop suffered m ire then any other from rain storme.s, Notwith- standing these drawbacks, there will be a comparatively large yield per acre. Rye -Only a email .acreeee of rve is now grown in Ontario fur the grain. Most of it is fed green, cued in some cases it is cut for hay. The crop C is evasion hale been a compar.e.i cly 1.E,1t one, Peas—For about five nr six yenra the depredations of the pea weevil fenuln,r n- ly called the "bug") were ro great ;let in nearly every section of the I'rn'''.rlce the acreage given to peas shrank to alarmingly small propors.i) is. Last sear, however, the weevil gave but little trou- ble to pea growers, and tihe sea.eon the _, pest is usualy mentioned to remark Its absence. Beans—The growing of beans AS a • field crop is confined chiefly to Kent. and adjoining counties, Trite crop was not fully .natured as corre4i,endents wrote, but gave promise tc more than an avct- age yield per acre. Ilay and Clover—Owing to the lack of snow last winter, pastures were much exposed, and eonaiderable winter -killing resulted, old fields suffering most. Tim- othy came through annob better than clover, and made a much better growth relatively during the autruner, The yield per acre is below the record of recent years, Corn—As n Simcoe county correspond- ent has tersely put it, "'1'llis bas been a corn summer." All things point to a large yield, both for husking and for the silo, as the crop is reported to bo Baring remarkably well. Flax—The acreage of flax is not so large as in former years, but the general tone of reports this season is encourag- ing. Tobacco—Reports regarding tobacco vary. The crop appears to have had a rather poor etart, the white grub caus- ing some lose early in the season. Potatoes—Much difference of opinion is expressed regarding the pretaent con - dation and the probable yield of pots• toes. Whik there will be some good yields in every section of the Province, the pretence of the blight will tend to keep down the average, ,The Colorado beetle was out in force, as usual, but while Paris green is used by every far o'er against this pest, only a few of the more progr•essice men spray with Bor- deaux mixture for the blight .A few eorrespondente speak of rot, but no general complaint haaa been made. Roots—The backward spring gave roots a late start, and in many MACS the seed geminated poorly. The June rains however, gave the young plants a new leaso of life, and when correspondents wrote, all classes of field roots were looking more or less promising. :Ifnngele and sugar .beets have done better than turnips. The latter, however, have euf- fered but little from the turnip aphis, or louse, which was so general last &eason. Correspondents bad but little to say of carrots, Fruit—Harvest and fall • apples will be plentiful, but standard winter vari- eties like the Spy and Greening will be rather scarce. The fruit, however, win 4 Assassinations of Two Years in Russia 1904. June ]6 --Cion. Count BobrikoffGovernor•General of Finland, July 28, --Minister of the Interior von Kelm. ]005. Feb, 6-J. M. E.

REMARKABLE OPERATION BY NEW YORK PHYSICIANS. Cut the Jagged Ends of Broken Back- bone so That They Would No Longer Press Into the Spinal Column— Operation Was Successful, New Fork, Sept, 3.—In the virtual curing of \ars. Elko Shuster, who has ,lust been rescued from the complete mental and physical paralysis following a double eoaipuuud fracture of the spin- al column, Bellevue ptaysieiune believe they have uccumipl5hed une of the must remarkable uenlevealet►ts of mod- ern surgery. When airs, Shuster was carried to the heepitaal, etaruppud to u plunk, her back broken in tour places as the re- sult of a street car accident lust Febru- ary, the doctors declared she would be dead within three day's. Har brain had been puralyced and her body deprived of movement. But 1)r. Lucius Iiotchkiss, the spine specialist, and Dr. Robert W. Carter, of Bellevue determined to learn if an en- tirely new surgical operation would not at least prolong life. They cut into the back, when the five broken verte- brae were found to be pressing upon and dislodging the spinal wird. Baring the spinal cord the surgeons wrapped it in covering of rubber sheets, sewed up the dura, cut the jugged ends off the vertebrae so that they would no longer press against the cord and then placed Mrs. Shuster in a plaster cast, through which they cut holes in order to treat the wound. Finally they placed the paralyzed woman upon a specially made bed of rubber, constructed ,upon the principle of a gigantic hot-water bag. She lay thus for seven months. Yesterday the woman was taken from, the bed and the plaster cast removed from )ler. Her joy was pathetic when she found she could speak and move her hands, body and legs. AN IRISH COUNCIL.

When site was but twelve she joined the choir in her native town, and with a thrill of surprise the choir -master heard her sing. So pleased was he with the possibilities of her voice that he urged her to guard her golden treasure with care, to avoid indiscriminate singing until she should be trained and perfected under the best teachers. He recom• mended her to devote her lite to song, and told her, with a prophetic glimpse, that she would be numbered among the world's greatest singers, Under the enthusiastic teaching of Edwin Holland of the Guildhall School of Musk, and other masters, her training was continued until she was ready for her first public appearance. Her intense love of Scotland, a patriot- ism that seems the keynote of her whole nature, led her to realize the possl- bilitles of the old Gaelic ballads, the heart songs of her people, and when Glasgow recognized her genius, her fame quickly spread through Great Britain, and the doors of conservative London opened In welcome, At Balmoral she was commanded to sing before Queen Victoria, who expressed her royal appreciation by presenting to her a superb bracelet, For nearly two and a half centuries no Highlander had been summoned to the throne --the latest one being a MacCrimmon piper who, in 1661, had the honor of performing before the King and kissing his hand, Miss MacLachlan's voice is a rich full soprano, vibrant with feeling and dramatic power. It is not the mere singing, the mere succession of pure liquid notes, that rouses her audiences, it is the magnetic force of her per- sonality, her absorption of the spirit of the song that carries the words from the heart of some Scotch poet of centuries ago to find their echoing note in the hearts of his twentieth-century fellow -countrymen. On her fourth tour of the world she is awakening enthusiasm wherever her voice is heard, and Is now singing in Australia. In Boston, before an audience of 6,000, when she gave the stirring martial air, "WI' a Hundred Pipers," men Jumped on chairs and waved their hands and shouted, In Toronto, encore after encore inspired new songs, until the singer grew wearied --a welcome typical of her entire tour. entered accordl,g to Act of the terUewent of C.aed., to the year 1903, by it 0.
