If nature has favored the subject with
warts and freckles on his nose, moles
on his chin, and wrinkles in his brow,
they are all distinctly visible without
the aid ot a microscope.
But in finishing the Photograph these
blemishes are removed or modified,and
the result is a beautiful picture with the
likeness perfectly preserved.

in South Ontario on Saturday. The Liber-
als redeemed the seat in 1891.
Mr W. B. Northrup, Conservative, was
elected to the Commons in East Hastings
on Saturday. The Liberals held this seat
at last election, though the Riding is con -
aervative, but the popular member, Mr
Burdett died.
Mr J. J. Teetzel, dentist, St. Thomas,
while standing on a cornice fixing a sign
on Monday, slipped and fell to the side-

Ed. Cox, the negro who ravished Mrs
Jewell Febuary 4, was captured Saturday

3 o'clock the scoundrel was burned at the

it was none too severe a punishment.
Mr Deacon, of Boston, who created a
sensation at Cannes, France, by shooting a
man named Abeille, whom he found in his
wife's bedroom, appeared before the meg-
hitrate Friday. He told the story of the
shooting and said he did not intend to kill
the man—only to wound him. The wife's
story was &miler to her husband's. Deacon
was held, bail being refused.
A few days ago a Stratford young man
hired a horse and cutter from D. W. Burt's
livery to take his young lady out for a
drive. The young lady fearing that some
tramp might visit the house during her
absence, took her watch and $30 in a hand
bag along with her. On returning the rig
to the livery she forgot the bag. Her gen-

The British Columbia Legislature last
week discussed the question of unrestricted
reciprocity, on motion of Col. Baker that
the Dominion Government be memorialized
to take steps to bring it about with the
United States. Although an amendment
favoring restricted reciprocity was agreed
to without a vote, the mere introduction
of the motion is a sign of the times, and
the speeches made show that many of the
British Columbiana are heartily in favor
of the broadest measure of reciprocity with
their southern neighbors.
Treasurer Harcourt announced in his
budget speech that the Province of Ontario
possesses surplus assets to the amount
of $5,285,515. He does not count among
the liabilities railway grants which will
become due in future years, nor does he
reckon among the assets lands which he
expects to sell, nor buildings which the
Province has paid for and expects to keep.
The assets he counts up consist principally
of debts due the Province from the Dom-
inion and from the municipalities, and by
way of proving that these are as good as
cash Mr Harcourt pointed to the fact that
he drew $500,000 on account last year,
which sum he spent on the new Parlia-
ment ouildings and asylum extensions.
At Whitby Assizes last week, before
Judge Dartnell, a girl of 14 years named
Elise Ann Berry, was charged with incena
diarism. The girl was taken from an in-
dustrial home in Toronto by a farmer
near Vroomanton, Brock, named Obed E.
Bagshaw. She was to remain an inmate
of his house during her minority. A few
days ago 'Mrs Bagshaw scolded the girl for
some misconduct, and [alertly afterwards
the latter slipped out with some matches
and set Mr Bagshaw's bean on fire. In the
conflagration which ensued $6,000 worth of
property was lost, including among other
things 56 head of cattle. The girl admitted
having committed the crime and appeared -
to be quite hardened. Thejudge sentenced
her to to years in Mercer Reformatory.
It is understood that the object of Ed-
ward Blake's visit to Monteral, was to meet
Thomas McGreevy whose' defense he has
consented to undertake before the assizes at
Ottawa. It is said,however,that Mr Blake
has agreed to do so on the 'express condi-
tions that McGreevy should place him in
possession of all the documents, of every
nature whatsoever, relating to the Tarte-
McGreevy investigation of last session,
which in all probability;will be ' reopened
next session. Mr Blake came down to
Montreal for the express purpose of exam-
ining and receiving all the incriminating
evidence in McGreevy's hands. Mr Blake,
it seems, has conaented not only to defend
Mr McGreevy before the Criminal Assizes
at Ottawa, but also to appear with him at
the bar of the House of Commons, from
which Mr McGreev-y was last year expelled
for refusing to reply to certain questions
put to him in the Committee on Privileges
and Elections, and tending to expose his
late party friends. In drder to afford op•
portunity for this, it is understood that a
prominent Ontario Liberal will on the
opening of next session mae a selemn de-
claration from his seat in 1' o Hoes° in-
criminating several promine nt Coeserva-
ive Ministers and iffitclere, at a connecting

The stables of Wm Price, a dealer in
fine horses, at Crawfordsville, Ind., were
the scene of a terrible fight between two
blooded Clydesdale stallions. In some way
they got loose and began fighting. One of
them, valued at $1,500, tried to , retreat
through a small door. He bemina6 tightly
wedged, and the other kicked and bit him
until be died.
The death is announced at the 6th con.

Burgess, one of the old residents of the
district. Mr Burgess was a member of

Five thousand people hunted over Craw-
ford and Bourbon counties, Kansas, and as
a result about 300 wolves are dead. Two
thousand jackrabbits were also.captured in
the general round up. There was only one
accident, Thomas Perkins, of Farlington,
being bitten by a couple of wolves. He
will not recover, as he was torn fearfully by
the infuriated animals.
Robert Craig, the well-known live stook
exporter and extensive landowner m the
talounty of Peel, died at his residence in
Brampton, after a brief illness, in the 82nd
year of his age. Mr Craig was noted for
his great activity and indomitable will.
He took an active part in the rebellion of
'37 on the side of the Government. He
was actively engaged in business up to with-
in a day or two of his last illness.
Mr McColl, farmer, North Yarmouth,
was the victim of a somewhat bold robbery
on Saturday. He had recently received
some 5200, the rent of one of his farms,
and deposited it in the meantime in a bu-
reau drawer., On Saturday the family were
all away except Mrs McColl and a hired
man, whom, it seems, Mr McColl had pick-
ed up while driving along the road three or
four weeks ago. He insisted on remaining
in the house, even after being told by Mrs
McColl to go out. Finally she consented to
his remaining in, and he started to sweep
the bed room floor. Going to the kitchen
for a short time, she found on her return to
the bedroom that the fellow had gone, and
on further examination that the bureau
drawer had been broken open, and the
money taken. On the return home of Mr
McColl and his sons the man was traced
eastward. Inquiry was made at Alymer,
but nothing could be learned of him ' there.
