Board has also decided to do likewise,
and no doubt there are others who will
soon follow the example. There are
many places in town with nice, well -
kept lawns that would be improved in
appearance by the removal of the
fences, and the desire to beautify and
improve is natural and would spread.

SLIGHTLY BURNED. — For several
weeks the wife of Mr Joseph Wheatley

room, put on a quick fire; noticing
that the pipes had partially parted,
-,'Joe" hit them with his hand to knock
them together, when they tumbled,
and to protect the room, he caught
tut' -u in his hands. It took him only
a thousandth part of a second to real-
ize that they were nearly red hot, and
before he could let them go his hands
were beautifully tender and sore.

hall was filled last Friday evening, the

dered nevertheless, in which Mr and

ton and Taylor and others. Mr J.

costs There has been considerable Sun-
day drinking going on lately, the boys
claiming that the liquor is bought by
the keg during the week and Constable
Wheatley says he is bound to break
this up if possible. On information
laid by Inspector Paisley, Mr Lee was
on Tuesday fined $20 and costs for sel-
ling liquor hi larger quantities than
allowed by law; Messrs McGarva and
Steep, magistrates, sat on the case.
EFFECTS OF THE STORM.—The wind
last week played havoc with things
generally, and did a considerable
amount of damage. In town we escap-
ed without much harm being done,
but in the country fences were levelled,
trees by the score blown over and
• , barns unroofed. Part of tile roof of
McGarva's salt block was taken off;
part of the Flax mill blown down; a
windmill on Mr Forrester's farm was
blown over, and one on Mr Thomas
Churchill's farm, Goderich township,
Was coioiiletely destroyed, breaking in
part of his verandah in its fall. Among
the barna in this vicinity that lose
either, the whole or part of their roof,
were those of Jttmes Nott and John
