Quite a consternation was in town on Saturday morning when it was rumored around that our second livery stable keeper, Peter McIntosh, had taken his departure for parts unknown during the night, leaving a number to mourn his loss. It is a pity he could not be caught and made an example of. The stone work of George Powell's new residence on Dinsley street hav- ing been completed the bricklayers from Dungannon commenced opera- tions on Monday. Early on Sunday morning an old residenter,John Martin, joined thesilent majority after a lingering disease.

NON PRAM Or, , PION ER. -John Pent- land was born in the Vounty Down, Ireland, in the year 1822. , fin his in, fancy be was brought by his parents to Canada when they settled in Amherst Island. In the year 1848 be came to Huron County in search of land. The next year the rest of the family came and took up lot 14 on the first con- cession of the Township of W. Wawa - nosh which was then a forest. Here they hewed out homes for themselves. Mr. Pentland's family consisted of 8 sons and one daughter. His wife and three sons preceded him to the Better Laud. In February last he was troubl.• ed with an affection of the liver. The trouble increased in severity until it caused his death on Saturday morning, April 28th. His children and friends have the sympathy of the com- munity in their bereavement. But though they sorrow they are not without hope. We are taught to be- lieve that a life -La Christian life -such as he lived will not go unrewarded through the countless ages of eternity. Converted when a young man- he join- ed the Methodist church and maintain- ed his connection with it till the time of his departure to realms above. He was a man who will be missed in the community. In political matters he was very quiet. Ile at one time occu- pied the position of reeve and at an- other time was collector of the town- ship of W. Wawanosh. The Scarlet Chapter and Orange Order will miss him, as he belonged to both. He at one time was W. M. of Dungannon L. 0 L. No. 321. When the Nile L. 0. L. No. 1052 was organized he was the first W. Master. He continued a member of the latter lodge until the time of his decease. The funeral was conducted by the Orangemen, representatives of many of the sister lodges being present to contribute their last token of respect to the deceased brother. The Sunday School will miss him. Some have culled him the "Father of the Nile S. School." He was connected with that school since its organization, occupying the posi- tions of superintendent, secretary, treasurer and teacher at various times. At the time of his death he was an assistant teacher of the Bible class. The church will miss him. The family to which he belonged may be said to be the founders of the Methodist church in this neighborhood, for when the pioneer preachers visited this vicinity first they found a class meeting regularly at the Pentland home. Mr. Pentland was for along time Recording Steward of the circuit when it consist- ed of what are now the Dungannon, Auburn and Nile circuits. When these were divided he held the position for a length of time till his sense of hearing failed to a limited degree when he re- signed, though he was still a steward. ,But more especially will he he missed in the home. A faithful father, he earnestly endeavored to lead his chil- dren on the narrow way. Surely he will be missed but we believe ho is gone to enjoy the restthat r'emaineth for the people of God. His funeral, which was one of the largest ever seen in this neighborhood, consisted of about one hundred and fifty vehicles. A sermon to improve the death of the departed brother will be preached by Rev. W. H. Moss in the Nile church on Sunday, May 13th at 7 p. In. His pall -bearers were his pioneer neighbors.

FELL ILL FR01.1 E$POSURE- PRONiOUN0. ED INCURABLE' ASA PAID THE TOTAL DISABILITY INSURANCE ALLOWED BY TUE •COMPANY-ONOE MORE ON TUE ROAD TO i E,,LTII-HE TELLS HOW IT CAME ABOUT. From the Deseronto Tribune. During the past few weeks a fruitful subject of conversation among the peo- ple at Deseronto Junction has been the wonderful recovery of Mr. William Henry Wager, who has been looked upon as a hopeless invalid. A repre- sentative of this • paper was sent to interview Mr. Wager and gain all in- formation possible in order to satisfy the public concerning the truth of the wonderful cure. Making his way to Deseronto Junction the reporter in- formed Mr. Ravin, the station master, of the object of his mission. That courteous official having assured the reporter that he would find the case one of more than ordinary interest, kindly pointed out the nearest route to Mr. Wager's residence. The Wager family is one of the oldest in the Bay dis- trict, and Mr. Wager and his people are well known throughout a wide radius of country. Arrived at the house the reporter knocked at the door and was quickly admitted by Mr. Wager himself, who it may be remark- ed, is in his thirty-fifth year, and was formerly employed as a section man an the Grand Trunk Railway, his section extending east and west of Deseronto Junction. He was a good workman and faithful servant of the company. On the 28th of April, 1893, he was com- pelled, on account of ill -health, to give up work completely. The doctor pro- nounced his trouble to be nervous palpitation of the heart. The district surgeon of the Grand Trunk Railway attended him and did all that medical skill could suggest in order to give him relief, but at the same time frankly told him that he could prescribe nothing could effect a premanent cure. Mr. Wagar was a member of the Grand Trunk Insurance and Provident Socie- ty, and during his illness received the usual pecuniary allowance given for a certain number of weeks to sick mem- bers. The society also paid his way to Montreal that he might consult an eminent medical man who acts as referee in such cases. This specialist at once pronounced his case hopeless ; cure was impossible. He returned home greatly dejected, and the Insur- ance Society paid him the whole amount granted to its members in cases of total disablity. Mr. Wager has since that time resided at his home on the Gravel Road, unable to work, seldom going from home except to make an occasional trip to Deseronto and Napanee. About three 'months ago Mr. John Kitchen, the well known section master on the Grand Trunk, who resides at Deseronto Junction, told Mr. Wager of the virtues of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and recommend- ed him to give them a trial. He ac- cordingly procured a quantity of the famous pills in order to give them a trial. Now mark the result. He soon felt the good effects of this, great medi- cine. His .appetite improved. The fluttering sensations about his heart appeared to he less pronounced. He continued taking the pills and his health steadily improved. The change became apparent to friends and neigh- bors and a matte._.Qf public interest. He gained in weight. As he remark- ed, last summer he was little more than a walking ghost; now, as the reporter could easily see, he was a substantial specitell.1F humanity. Mr. Wager, informed the reporter that before he commenced taking Dr. Williams' Pink Pills his heart used to heat rapidly and continue palpitating violently for some time if he attempted to cut even one stick of wood ; now he can Cut the daily supply of wood for the house without any such disagreeable sensa- tions. He feels himself a different man and his neighbors are all congratulat- ing him upon the great- 'hangs so plainly, manifest. He expects as soon as navigation opens to commence work again. Mr. Wager was present during the interview •and corroborated her husband's narrative. They consider it a duty to publish abroad the virtues of this famous medicine which has brought such hope and comfort to their household. Mr. Mager also told of a leading farmer in the neighborhood who had been troubled with a chronic headache, who, at his suggestion, had also tried Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and had experienced relief in a very short time. Other cases in Deseronto and vicinity are known to the Tribune in which Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have been productive of much good. These pills are a perfect blood builder and nerve restorer, curing such diseases as rheumatism, neuralgia, partial paraly- sis, locomoter ataxia, St. Vitus' dance, nervous headache, all nervous troubles, palpitation of the heart, the after effects of la grippe, diseases depending on humors of the blood, such as scro- fula, chronic erysipelas, etc. Pink Pills give a healthy glow to pale and sallow complexions and are a specific for troubles peculiar to the female system, and in the case of men they effect a radical cure in all cases arising from mentel worry, overwork, or ex- cesses. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills may he he had of all dr uggists or direct by mail from Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont., or Schenectady, N. Y., at 50c. a box, or six for $2.50. See that the company's registered trade markis on the wrapper of every box of- ered you, and positively refuse all imita- tions or substitutes alleged to be "just as good." Remember no other remedy has been discovered that can success- fully do the work of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. While Thomas Rowan, who lives on a farm two miles from Bethany, was hitching up his team Saturday morn- ing, to go out to work, the animals be- came unmanageable and ran away, throwing his eight-year-old son off the wagon and killing him instantly. One day recently, while Samuel Robinson, of East (arafraxa, was en- gaged in cutting a rail on the farm of Wm. May, the axe glanced, inflicting a terrible gash on the instep of his left foot. A doctor put five stitches in the wound. The fisst patent on the telephone was issued in March, 1876. Stnce then 1,700 patents traceable to the patent invention have been filed. In 1803 there were in the United States 552,700 telephones and 1,350 telephone ex- changes with over 2.32,000 subscribers and 600,000,000 connections, and 448,800 miles of telephone wire.

Jones, we regret to hear, is on the sick list. As the old gentleman is now in his 85th year, he cannot be expected to stand a very severe attack of sickness. Henry C. Brown, aged 70 and worth $4,000,000, was married on Wednesday at Denver, Col., to Miss Mary Louisa Matthews, a school teacher, aged 22. The event caused a soda' sensation. Bishop Baldwin has appointed Rev. J. A. Bloodsworth, late; Presbyterian Minister, to the charge at Thamesfom'd and Lakeside, vacant by the removal of Rev. W. Stout to Oil Springs. Mrs. 'Ann Wheeler, widow of a lab- orer, died at Ashmore, Salisbury, on Saturday, aged 102, as certified by the baptismal register of that parish, where she was born and had lived all her long life. The Kentucky editor has a hard time of it. One was sued for libel recently by a woman, because in announcing the death of her husband he remarked, "The. deceased has gone to a happier home." That time flies is generally a matter of regret. In regard to house -flies, however, popular opinion is different, for it is their arrival and not their de- parture that is regretted. The early flies have already made their spring bows to the unresponsive public. Lindsay, the constable shot by the man Truskey tet Comber Thursday night, died of his injuries Friday. Truskey was pursued by officers, and, rather than be captured alive, put a bullet in his own breast. It is belived Truskey will die. The other day Mrs. George Gould's maid lost on a road in the Catskills a handbag belonging to her mistress. The bag contained diamonds and valuables worth $81,00). The lodge keeper was sent back and met a farm- er's wife, who had the bag and valu- ables and delivered them up. Mr. William Lewis, jeweller, of Petrolea, went into Spurr & Vigar's meat market, Friday, morning to pur- chase some meat. He finished his pur- chase and before reaching the door going out he dropped. Upon in- vestigating it proved life had fled, Mr. Lewis not uttering one word. Edward Holbrook, of Warwick Township, is in the hospital at London undergoing treatment forpcancer. The old gentleman, who is in his 81st year, has had three operationserformed, and there are some hopes ofhisrecovery. Robt. Morgan, 4th line, S. E. R., Warwick, has been afflicted with a constant hiccough for over six months, and has been examined by a number of physicians without obtaining relief. His peculiar complaint is a puzzle to the medical profession. Johnnie Dougher, aged 6, youngest son of William Dougher of Dunnville, was drowned in the Welland Canal about noon on Saturday. The body was recovered after having been in the water about an hour. Time boy went Out to fish and fell from the lock gates. At an inquest on the recent fires in Faweett's Mill and Wilson's Hotel, Strathroy, a young Englishman nam- ed Howard gave evidelee that. he had been asked by Thos. Wilson to fire the planing mill, but had refused. The evidence will be resumed next Fri- day. . The strike on the Great Northern railroad, which involved 5,000 em- ployes and 3,700 miles of_road, was ended on Wednesday by adjudication of the differences between employers and employed before a joint commit- tee composed of representatives of leading business organizations.

Dr. Emanuel Herman, an Austrian, first invented the card. It was first used in Austria Hungary. In 1873 it was used in Germany and in 1880 it was adopted by the International Postal Union. In regard to its use there are some interest- ing figures : In Austria 100,000,000 are in use every year : in English post - offices, 250,006,000, and in the whole world about 1,000,000,000.
