ACCIDENT.—While playing base ball
the other day, Master Fred Gilroy,
eldest son of Mr J. C. Gilroy, had the
misfortune to get his nose broken by a
blow from a bat.
THE FALL WHEAT.—Farmers tell us
that the fall wheat is looking splendid,
'that it has not been injured in any
way by the frost, and that so far as
their observation extends, it promises
exceedingly well.
POSTPONED.—The open meeting of
the Temperance Lodge, announced
for the 6th inst., has been postponed
until the evening of the 20th. An ex-
cellent program is promised, one fea-
ture of which will be an address by Mr ,
J. Houston. M. A., of the Collegiate
Institute.
•A MAUD S. COLT.—Ed. T. Holmes
has -imported from St. Catharines a fine
colt, which was sired by Bookmaker, a '
brother of Maud S.; its dam is a Clear
Grit mare. Bookmaker is one of the
finest horses in Canada, and his colts
are prize winners wherever they are
shown.
BUSINESS CHANGE.—Mr James An-
derson has disposed of his restaurant
business to Messrs James Howe and
C. J. Wilson, who have also bought out
the bakery business of Mr R. McLennan
They are wide awake young business
men and will doubtless hustle after
• their share of tr ade.
CHANGES.—Mr John Brown, of the
Electric light, has rented the house on
Huron street, formerly occupied by
the Misses Cole. Mr D. A. Forrester
has rented the house on Ontario St.,
vacated by Mr Brown. Mr McAllister

THE PARACHUTE ACT.—A lady in
Jackson, Mich., who is a professional
baloonist, and claims to have dropped
with a parachute many times when
her baloon was high up in the clouds,
has written to Mr W. Coats, Secretary
of the Huron Central, offering to give
an exhibition here while the fair -was
In progress, for a reasonable considera-
- ` tion. The directors will hardly engage
her, for fear that the "consideration"
would be more than the Society could
stand:
THE MONTHLY FAIR.—A large num-
ber of people were in town on Wed-
nesday, and a number of horse buyers
were here, but there was not the same
number of horses offered as was the
case a month ago. Some horned stock
changed hands, and about twenty
horses. If the United States would
quickly amend its tariff, particularly
that part relating to horses, the value
of such would instantly take a jump
upwards. A determined effort Must be
made to keep up the fair, even though
only a comparatively few sales takes
place on each occasion, Once perman-
ently established, it will be a good
thing for seller and buyer.

COUNCIL MEETING.—The council held
its regular meetin on Monday even-
ing, but beyond the passing of a few.
accounts, there was really no business
transacted. On Tuesday evening a
special meeting was held, where Mr
Richmond, the special agent of the Bell
Telephone Co. appeared before the
council to see what could be done to-
wards granting that company an ex-
clusive privilege for this town. It was
shown that, according to statute. the
municipality, had no power to grant
exeltisive privileges, although another
company, wishing to come in, must
'first obtain the consent of the corpora-
tion. The matter was freely discussed
but no action taken.

and unavailingly the tine that the first two brothers
had the first misunderstanding down
age, men have continually g]
y
divided themselves up into factions. Brother fought
brother, town besieged town, state warred against
state, nation against nation, continent against conti-
nent; one continual "faction fight." A change is com-
ing over men in more ways than one in dealing with
one another, and one of the ways is that of a "faction"
introduced and guaranteed by JACKSON BROS. to
bind all men together. But, how ? say you; can faction
join men in harmonious working order? "Absurd,"
no! here is the explanation. The "faction" around
which we are convinced all men gather and approve
of is the greatest of all factions" "Sans—FACTION" and
it is around this kind of faction that we have built up
