Not KII,LEIi.—It was assumed that
the recent frosts hadentirely destroyed
the young grasshoppers, but unfortu-
nately this is not so, as farmers tell us
they can be seen in countless numbers.
FALL WHEAT IN HEAD.—On Satur-
day Mr Tyndall brought in a bunch of
fall wheat out in full head, and several
farmers have since spoken of having
the same. It is unusually early for
wheat to be in head by the lst of June.
•
THE RISE.—A fmer in
vici�mityoTwho some time ago deliverhed
about 2,500 bushels of wheat, when it
was a low figure, on the condition that
he could draw his money whenever the
price him, last week took ad-
vantage of suited
he rise, and settled the deal
on the basis 'of $1 per bushel. He is
holding on to a good many bushels yet,
in the hope that it may go to $1.25, or
even higher.
No CAUSE FOR.ALAR1t.—All sorts of
unfounded rumors have been in circu-
lation for a couple of days concerning
the prevalence of- black diphtheria,
scarletievers etc., in town, these going
so far .as to say that the schools would
be.closed on account of -it. There is a
single case of scarlet fever in town,
which is under- control of the Health
Officers, and all the other rumored
cases are so much unnecessary alarm.

Caus-fmarsr.;AaTROI.isex.—An-,satur..
day tast'Mr M. D. 'Coltman, pastor of
the Baptist church, Clinton, had a
dangerous experience in Toronto. He
was riding along Queen street, when
at,' the corner of Peter he became
"pocketed" between two rigs, and in
trying to avoid one, he ran into the
other, and was thrown directly in front
of a trolley. He had scarcely fallen
when the car was on him,: and he was
swept out `of the way, the fender catch-
ingtim and saving his life. His wheel
was smashed to pieces. He was able
to walk away, being only dazed and
badly bruised, but he missed the train
he was hurrying to catch, and will not
be able to return to town for a few
days yet.
AT LEAST BE COURTEOUS—A number
offpeople in town are in the habit of
tethering their horses and cows on the
street, and allowing them to graze as
well as the tether willermit. Strictly
speaking, this is a violation of the by-
law, but it has been overlooked and
permitted, on the assumption that the
cattle did noharm, but possibly' good
in keeping down the grass. But the
animals sometimes get on the side-
walks, to the injury of the latter, and
the poundkeeper complains that when
he has requestedeople to keep the
animals off. the walks, they have abused
him roundly. This is not only uncalled
for, but might break up the privilege
that so many enjoy, and it will be
policy on their part to be at least:cour-
teous to him.

to the committees he was on before his
resignation, and Mr Cantelon was sub-
stituted for the late reeve, on the seve-
ral committees. On the report of the
Street Committee a lively discussion
ensued; Coun. Gilroy and others were
in favor of laying down stone walks
similar to the crossings, but with a ce-
ment surface; Ooun.McKenzie and oth-
ers opposed them as impracticable, and

.'atiructed to draft a resolution of condo-
leriee with Mr Searle.

RETITRNED ROHE. ;The Whitely
school boy, who left town May 18, on a
pedestrian tour through Huron, Mid-
dlesex and 'Lambton counties, was lo-
cated by his father at Sarnia, and ar-
rived home Tuesday evening. The boy
had no definite object in view when he
left home. He merely, wanted to get
away from school. He was not in To-
ronto and London, as .reported. He
keptperu ulously to the Queen's high-
way, and to visiting the small towns
and the beautiful rural portions of the
prettiest province in the Dominibn.—
He footed it all the way to Sarnia with-
out a cent going through Brucefleld,
Kippen, Iiensall. Exeter, Centralia,
Clandeboye, Parkhill, Forest, &c. He
worked at various farms for his enter-
ainment, and could have had per-
manent employment. But "onward”
was his motto. He found that there is
onsiderable human nature in mankind
nd especially in womankind. His
uiet demeanor and friendless appear-
nce excited the sympathies of all upon
hom he called, and he fared much
etter than he deserved, or probably
ould again. Hissfather, in searching
or him, found among stern railway
en, police officers and hotel men,
any who have hearts that can "feel
or another's woe," more especially
hen therief of a mother was alluded
o. Mr Whitely says he also was the
cipient of kindly practical courtsies
t the hands of Clinton G.T.R. agent
attison, Conductor Parker, T.C. Do-
erty, and Chief of Police Windred, of
arum. The latter gentleman, byMthe
athe Clais a rendon, Clinton, and treated
e boy with the kindness of a father;
is a living embodiment of official
rewdness and discrimination, and
oof that proper feelings of sensitive
anhood can live and have their being
neath the blue coat of gpolice officer;
d that the influences`'jf home and
mastic ties have a beneficent effect
on the individual in hie dealings with
e "wide, wide world." While at Sar-
a Mr Whitely was made quite at
me by mine hosts of the Chapman
use.
