ARICV WEDDING.—The Marriage of
leoltPle of adherents of the Salvation
my took place at the Barracks, on
nesday morning. The contracting
arties were Mr Thomas Raney, of
lyth, and Mrs Bolton, of town;
Capt. Austin,oiBlyth, and Capt. Mc-
Keagne, of Olin lc, aided as grooms-
' Man and bridesmaid, respectively.
Itev. J. W. Shilton, of Rattenbury
'lgt Methodist church, performed the

one of the staff officers from London.
sumptuous dinner was provided at a
PriVate residence for the wedding
'Tarty, and at the evening service in
:the barracks several officers from
:sither stations took part.
FIRE.—Early Tuesday morning peo-
ple were disturbed by the discovery
:that Dr. Blackall's office was on fire,
on Ontario St. and soon the adjacent
buildings were in a blaze: The premis-
es occupied by Mr Evans as a barber
shop were also destroyed and the old
lIcyal Hotel building, occupied as a
"A:Welling by Mr Sheppard, was pretty
;badly wrecked on one side. Mr Black -
all lost nearly all his office effects,
'isrhich were slightly insured; and a few
*tides were saved from Mr Evans'.
The buildings all belonged to Mr Shep-
pard, who had a small insurance on
hem. The fire was undoubtedly the
ork of an incindiary. The new fire
'eempany did excellent work.
WORD TO THE BOYS. — We are
often told of mischievous pranks that
,.,,are being done in different ways, by
boys, and if it was not for the re-
0,speet neighbors have for their parents,
' :irmany of them would see the inside of
,the lockup. The damage that is done
school property is shameful, and in
lnaost every vacant house the glass is
all broken, and it will cost many dol-
,4ars4orepaiesomoo1 them, ,The,goilty.,
parties should be punished. Two boys
est week who were delivering some
Tatent medicine advertisements, en-
Ooyed themselves by pulling house bells
capsizing house
ors, picking flowers from
nd leaving gates open i
may get n. Now, the
like to be called thieves,
to the same thing.

•ae was so scrupulously honest that he
,would not accept free hospitality from
the farmers, but allowed them to

The inducements were so tempting
that a great many are said to have
paid their membership fee, and he
cOnsequently went away with a full
Mer book. The delivery waggons
.Were to be around early this spring,
'but as they have not yet turned up,

WESTERN TOWN.—Mr George W.
,i4yde, (son-in-law of Mr P. Straith,
Clinton,) writes from Oxbow, As'sa„ as
ollOws:—"I have been lappointed sta-
tion agent at this place. For the infor-
t,--niation of your readers I will send you
short description of this new town.

ItYltaeO, of .SeafOrth, Made th_e. remark
liereLen Tuesday, that if the acifinley
tariff were off be would at once pay
120 per dozen for eggs. People who
vainly OAPPPOse that there is "big
money" in the export of eggs to Great
Britain will be interested in knowing
that on a single shipment made last
year—and Under apparently favorable
...cirenzustances—Mr. Wilson had the
Miefertune to drop $2,500.

to lose him. An attractive delivery
waggon that for several days stood in
front of Rumball's Carriage Shop,
turned out to be for Tyndall Bros.
Cantelon Bros shipped last week about
1,000 lbs of butter, and what is of much
importance is that it was of a quality
that would stand comparison with any,

Most of all civilized men wear Trousers. We make this
statement without fear of contradiction, and the reason we
make it is that the wearing of Trousers necessitates also the
wearing of Braces, about which we would say a few words.
If filer° is anything on earth that initates the calm and serene
in the nature of the average man, it is the coming apart of
those articles of wearing apparel called Braces, perhaps in
the most critical moment in his history; it may be he is just
getting down on his knees to his heart's desire, when nr-r-rip
goes those suspenders of his. This may be all overcome by
purchasing a reliable Brace from us as reliable dealers. Ask
us for the CENTURY BRACE.
Sunday will be warm and fine, and one of our DUNLAP
or FEDORA HATS will sit in an appreciated position on
