Mits. GEORGE Bowitis.-About nine
months since Mrs. Bowers went to
llelens, Montana, in the hope that the
chauge would have a favorable effect.
A severe and probably neglected cold
settled on her lungs. Her sister, 1\Irs.
Pope, looked after her every want
with the teudorness of a sister, but all
was without await. Tho mes.-anger of
death carne on the 1Gth. In the death
of Mrs. Bowers a noble heart is
stilled. She was born iu this county,
being a daughter of the late Jonas
Copp and sister to out respected to wits -
non, Joseph Copp. The latter and
Mrs. Pope are the only surviving mem•
hers of the family. The late Mrs.
Bowers was aged but 45 years. She
was married 28 years ago and was the
mother of nine children -six sous and
three daughters, all living; the young:
est being a daughter seven years old,
All were home. Charles spent six
weeks with his wotbor previous to her
death. The deceased was an adherent
of the Episcopal church and died in
the faith of a true Christian. The
remains wore convoyed to Clinton, the
interment taking place Saturday. Tho
obsequies worn attended by a largo
number of sorrowful friends and rela-
tione who mourn the lose of a siucero
friend, a patient, lovable andliChristian
woman. The floral offerilbgs were
numerous and beautiful, especially
those from Montana. The services
were conducted by Rev. Mr, Fairlie, of
St. Paul's church, and the pall bearers
were Messrs. Robson, Rumba'', Mc-
Corvie, Overbury, Harland and Leslie.
Thusone by one tender hearts and noble
citizens are removed from earthly
troubles by the hand of Death. The
Helena, Montana, Herald, thus refers
to the dent)) of .firs. Bowers :-After
a lingering illness, Sirs. Mary Bowers
passed away at noon Sunday, at the
residence of her sister, Mrs. Francis
Pope, on Rodney street. Deceased at
first suffered from an attack of la grippe,
which fastened upon her an affection
of the lungs from which uo skill of
treatment ur kindly care could rescue
her. Last summer Mrs. Pope brought
the invalid from Canada, thehope be-
ing that a change of climate might
assist in restoring her health, but the
malady was too far advanced and the
most that removal to Montana accom-
plished WAS to prolong her life by
some mouths. Yesterday the good
tvouuin, the mother of a large family of
children, some of whom are grown to
rnatur'ity, peened peacefully to rest.
There wore services at the residence of
Mr. Popo last evening, conducted by
Rev. Webb, of St. Peter s Episcopal
church, mane nieighbors and friends
being present, their floral offerings
covering the casket. This morning the
remains, in charge of a son, Charles
Bowers, went east over the Great

question, it appears, was recently in-
vited to a party at the residence whore
the home had recently been blessed
with an addition to the family. Ac-
companied by his best girl, he met his
kind hostess at the door; and after the
customary salutation, asked after the
welfare of the baby. The lady was
suffering front a cold, which made her
slightly deaf,- and she mistakenly sup-
posed' that the young man was enquir-
ing about her cold. She replied that
though site usually had one every
winter, this was the worst one she had
ever had; it kept her awake at nights
a good deal and at first confined her to
her bed. Then noticing that the
scribe was getting pale and nervous,
elle said she could tell by his looks
that he wasgoing to have ono just like
hers, and she asked him to go and lie
down. The paper came out as usual
next week, but the editor has given up
enquiriug about babies,
THE WIND STORK. -Last Wedues-
day night and Thursday there was a
very severe wind atoms in this section.
A little taste of a severe gale reminds
one what they read about of
cyclones and the like as a corn
coon occurrence in the neighbor-
ing republic. ' But here the blow is
termed a wind storm. Lt that case we
pray that we may long be spared from
American cyclones, annexation or the
like. Sturdy men and women could not
maintain :heir equilibrium on - the
walks, fences were blown down, 'sial•
wart trees uprooted, buildings shook
and things in general "got a move
00." 'Jr, Forrester's fax sheds suffer-
ed considerable damage, the end being
torn out of one. A sign over Chidley's
furnituro store came to the sidewalk, a
little lad being within three feet of
meeting serious results. The iron
fencing on the roof the of Graud Union
front, along with a lot of brick, was ra-
n -Lived and blown inward onto the
roof. A large glass iu Young's bakery
gave way to the force pf the wind.
People appeared on the attests with
umbrellas ani retired in disgust as
their protection was turned inside out.
Tho brick smoke stack at Fair's mill
swayed from the top, but withstood the
force ; water barrels on top of the saw
mill were whipped up like feathers.
The remainder of the walls of Caute-
lon's carriage works swayed to and fro.
Electric wires suffered 'considerably.
A stable opposite the foundry was
brought to the ground. Gilroy & Wise -

siderable damage was done at the
cemetery. Monuments wero forced out
of line and the fence blown down.
To preserve the marks of thedead, they
should be looked after without delay.
In the country fences were 'lifted and
carried long distances and several
barns unroofed. The wind storm was
one of the worst and most violent ever
known in this section, but as' yet we
we havo not learned of any loss of life.

A bass., Orrstox.-The \Vinghaun

have been granted licenses, and two
sue yet to be granted from the remain-

these two is not, hard to see through
the spectacles of a posted politician,
nor is it (lift1Clllt to arrive at a con-
clusion as to why the commissioners
did not immediately grant license's to
the other two, inasmuch as all the
others are well-known Conservatives.
It merely remains to be seen which
two of the four hotel -keepers now
doing business will retake the stoutest
pledges towards supporting the Mowat
administration. Sir Oliver's "Evi-
dences of Christianity" are every-
where visible, and more especially is
this true in his obnoxious ,Ind tyranni-

FROM DAKOTA. ---A former resident
of this section writes from Gremlin,
Dak., under date oi' April 15, giving a
little personal experience >sn that
"grand" country. He says :- "'t We have
had a terrible wet spring out here.
There has been no seeding yet nor will
there be for some time, probably not l his
month. The Red river is very high.
There hasiot hyenas much water since
1882, the time of high water. On Ile -
count of the water we had to stove all
the stock out of tate building, except
one team, which were housed in the
kitchen four days. We had quite a
Liuu1 coiling- up to Gremlin. The
water was ttw.o and three feet deep in
seine places and heavy ice. The ice
would carry the horses in some places
and in other places would let them
through. The party started with a
wag ,n, brit when on l he .journey about
three miles from house, the wheels of
the rig were a solid iyass of ice. A
sleigh was borrowed from a. Norwegian
limner. About three miles further On
the sleigh broke down and we had to
walk. It was terrible. 'Trunks, valise,
robes and blankets were strapped unto
the horses collars, eta., and we
walked four miles more. The horses
were badly cut and can hardly walk
since. The water' is rieiig fast and
i here is about 2(11) acres of our land you
cannot see for water, enough to give a
aunt the blues. But. we mein luck
tempered to some people." This is
testimony from a aunt on the spot.
And still the (bit press of Ontario
will picture Dakota'as God's own coun-
try, the country for happy Canadians
to go to. There are worse places than.

appear vile. But We presume our

in .he usual reckless Manner. Like the
accusations boldly made ngaiirst the•
