A Hensall correspondent says :—Our
villagers have been on the guard of

displeased on Saturday week when
they received notice that in future
they would be liable to have their runs
changed daily. In the past conductors
have had regular runs, and the men
now complain that it will seriously

ments. The reason of the change is
obvious since the recent disclosures at
Montreal.
A sensational:story reaches us from
Gonrie. It is said that two persons
were driving between Wroxeter and
Gorrie on Saturday, and hearing a
child crying drove by, but'retur•ned, to
see what was wrong. They found a

The Woodstock Sentinel -Review has
an Embro item as follows :—We have

take a little pugilistic exercise, takes a
few rounds with his poor unfortunate
delicate wife, Upon the occasion of
his last pugilistic encounter with her,
she came out second hest, getting a
beautiful black eye and ether facial
adornments. What are the ladies of
Embro about that they do not rise in a
body and give such a monster a coat-
ing of tar and feathers and rawhiding
that he will not soon forget. It is well
for him that he does not live in Wood-

At the services in the Methodist
Church, in Walkerton on Sunday even-

sev4rely those husbands who aro in
the habit of being cross to their wives.
He then asked anyone who had never
spoken a cross word to his wife to
stand up. Out of a congregation of
some 500 people not a single man got
up. They had to silently acknowledge
the corn. The women, however, can't
crow over their male consorts, for
when given a similar opportunity to
vindicate their character for wifely
docility, and affection, not a single
woman in the plaice had a clear cons-
cience, The Rev. Mr. Watson relieved
the situation by remarking that the
Lord .would forgive thein. We have
been hesitating says an exchange as to
whetherBro. Ran ton is amarried man.
The Wiarton Canadian says:—"An
amusing little incident occurred on the
train leaving Wiarton a few days ago.
A passenger asked Conductor Nickle
for a.ticket to Hepworth and flourish-
ed a $100 bill to pay for it. These big
bill gentry bob up every once in a
while to make small purchases to the
annoyance of business men of all kinds,
and very often, rather than go to the
trouble of getting change,theyareallow-
ed to get off without paying for what
they buy. Conductor Nickle was not
going to give this fellow any satis-
faction of.that kind and being a little
more flush that day than usual, he dip-
ped into his wardrobe and counted out
the change, to the chagrin of the big
hill chap and amusement, of onlookers.
The best part of the joke though .was
that the man • who wanted to go to
Hepworth on the little corner of his
$100 hill turned out to be a Grand
Trunk 'spotter' tvho was trying to
catch ^r uductors."

TOWN HALL, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 2ND.
Hamilton Herald :—Miss LilliKleiser
is bound to become a successful singer.
She has a voice of delicious quality,
rich, sympathetic and vibrant.
Peterboro Exaaniner:—The triumph
of the evening was won by Mr. A. D.
Sturrock, baritone soloist of St. James'
Cathedral, Toronto. He scored a great
success and instantly sang himself into
popular favor on his first public ap-
pearance in Peterboro. Mr. Sturrock
uses his remarkably robust and re-
sonant voice with excellent judgment.
He sings with rare taste and expression
and in a simple, unaffected style that
is charming. He was compelled to
respond to encores for all his numbers:
He is an exceptionally fine singer, and
may successfully claim to rank with
the hest Cauadian baritones on the
concert stage.
Orillia Tunes:—The favorite of the
evening was undoubtedly Mr. Bert
Harvey, judging from the enthusiastic
manner in which he was recalled. I -lis
tannic songs were given in costume

What Shall it Re ?
THE STAVELY ESTATE MONEY IN THE
HANDS OF THE GOVERNMENT.
There was a public meeting, called
by the Mayor, in the council chamber
on Monday night to take some definite
action in regard to the $31,000 accruing
from the Stavely Estate. The attend-
ance was small. Mayor Holmes occu-
pied the chair and Town Clerk Coats
was elected secretary. A letter was
read from J. T. Garrow, Q. C., M. P. P.,
stating that the matter was now
practically settled and that the money
would soon be in the hands of the
Government. The tone of the letter
led the meeting to believe that $10,000
of the $31,000 might be secured for a
Public -Institute or County Hospital.
He, however, urged immediate action.
Those who discussed the matter were :
Reeve McMurchie, Councillor Plum-
mer, W. Cooper, H. Hale, James
Scott, W. C. Searle and Dr. Gunn.
The most feasible conclusion was in
favor of the erection of some charit-
able institution to be maintained by the
province. An epileptic hospital seemed
to be favored. The discussion went to
show • that in the Dominion there are
some 1,200 epileptic patients and no
proper institution for their care. Dr.
Gunn stated that probably 400 acres of
ground would be required and suggest-
ed an hospital on the cottage principle.
The following resolution was unanun-
ously carried .—
Moved by W. Coats, seconded by
Thos. Cottle, that Mayor R. Holmes,
Reeve McMurchie, Councillors Plum-
mer, Armstrong, and Messrs. G. D.
McTaggart, D. A. Forrester, W. W.
Farrah, Dr. Gunn, James Scott and
the mover he a permanent committee
of citizens to be known as the "Stavely
Estate Committee" to consult together,
enter into and carry on correspond-
ence, interview persons, members of
the Legislature and Government with
the view of ascertaining what charit-
able institutions under the jurisdiction
of the province are likely to be erected
by the provincial Government or are
required to be erected by the needs of
the Province and to secure the estab-
lishment of some such institution at or
near Clinton with power to such
Committee to offer toward its estab-
lishment the portion of the monies
from the Stavely Estate promised to
the citizens of Clinton.
The committee decided to ineet last
night and further discuss the matter.
