Dr Stevenson, the Chinese missionary who had such a narrow escape from murder at the hands of the natives in the first of the recent riots in China, is a nephew of Mrs Shortreed, of Morris. The many friends of Mrs W. H. Ver- ity, of Brantford, formerly of Exeter will learn with deep regret that four of her household are now down with the typhoid fever: Mr Thomas McMillan of Hullett, re- turned from the old country last week. He went over with cattle and succeed- ed in disposing of them very satisfac- torily. A burglar broke. into Mr J. Keller- mann's store, Dashwood, and burst open the safe.. He received nothing for his trouble, however, as .there was no money in the safe, Geo. Laird, a former Ethel boy , was married on Wednesday of last week to Miss Vhemia Govenlock, of Winthrop ,sT o./young couple will make their home in Dakota. Harry Carnachan, teamster for D.D. Wilson. Seaforth, had a runaway one evening last week, and he and his boxes were dumped in a hurry. The team brought up at a telegraph pole. No serious damage was done as the boxes were empty. At a Congregational meeting, in James St Methodist Church, it was de- cided to make material improvements to the church edifice, in Exeter. The building is now an L shape. It will be squared, celled( repainted and reseated ampitheatre style. The glass on the large picture of the graduates of the Forest City Business. College, which was in Messrs Homnth & BowIes" window, Wingham, ;vas broken into a hundred pieces by the sun. There is a large mirror at one side of the window, which drew the heat and thus destroyed the glass. During the storm on Tuesday eve- ning the residence of Mr `R. McKenzie, of Varna, was struck by lightning. The fluid struck the gable end of the houde, shattering the cornice, tearing off the eave troughs and otherwise dam- aging the building, but fortunately it was not set on fire, and the injury done is not serious. On Tuesday last while Messrs. Par- sons Bros. were entering the premises of Mr James Hodgins in Stephen with their machine, they met with an acci- dent .which will entail a cost of be- tween $75 and $100. It seems they were crossing a culvert and the whole !thing collapsed with the above result. Mr J. B. Brine, of Seaforth, a few ' days ago received from an old friend, Mr Francis Pope, of Helena, Montana, a present bf a very handsome, gold - headed cane. It is one of the nicest we have seen, and the old gentleman is, justly, very proud of it. Mr Pope, some thirty years ago, resided in Har- purhey, and, it seems, does not forget the friends of his earlier ,life. During the thunderstorm last Satur- day afternoon the barns and outbuIld- ings of Mr James Snell near Kinburn, were struck by lightning and entirely consumed, together with a quantity of h , ten hogs: a number of fowls and arly all his implements, including a net, wagon. Fortunately for Mr Snell his grain was still in the field. He holds an insurance but it will not near- ly cover his loss. The Ching farm on the Lake Road, Hay township, was offered for sale by auction on Saturday but not sold, the highest bid being $5000 by Wm. Baw- den. The farm has since been sold for $5750 to a Mr Ching, of Manitoba. Mr Wm. Ching, the present occupant, will move to his own 100 acre farm just west of the homestead. The many friends throughout the country of Mr and Mrs John Ogden, of Usborne, will regret to learn of the death of their daughter Hannah, on Saturday list of typhoid fever. She had been ill but 21 dyays, first with dy- sentery which was followed by fever. The young lady was in her twentieth year and had a promising future. What might have resulted seriously " happened on Saturday last to one of the masons engaged in removing the scaffold used in the construction of the school building, Cranbrook. One of the large poles fell and struck Herman Gaus on the forehead, knocking him to the ground insensible. However he is able to be back to work, now wear- ing a slightly disfigured countenance.

NEWS NOTES There have been 16,000 deaths from the cholera plague in Japan. Threshing is general at Emerson, Manitoba, the wheat being all cut. ,os The Queen's bounty has been applied for by Mr P. A. Choquette, M. P., for a French woman who gave birth to five children within twelve months. An aged widow in Williamstown, named Mrs AIex. Chisholm, was burn- ed death by a lamp setting fire to her clothing. The G. T. R. freight shed at Aurora was destroyed by fire on Monday night, together with a quantity of grain, mer- chandise and machinery. Frank S. Thomas, aged 38, died at the Stanley House, Kingston. He was sole survivor of the original New pr - leans Jubilee Singers, who' 20 years ago started out to,secure by their sing- ing sufficient money to establish a college for colored people. Their ob- ject was obtained. Mr Long, the new Chaiaman of the English Board of Agriculture, says he will not accept Canada's invitation to investigate as to the existence of pleuro in Canada. Albert Hilliker, a hog buyer, was thrown from the train near Norwich Wednesday night and killed. Mr Laurier, it is stated, has postpon- ed the opening of his compaign in On- tario until October. Mr 3. Fleury, of Aurora, Ont., drop- ped dead Thursday morning at Wel- lington, Ont., where he had been stay- ing for a short title. Angus McLeod, of Sarnia, won the 25 -mile bicycle championship of Can- ada for class B riders at Sarnia, cover- ing the distance in 1 hour, 5 minutes and 30 seconds, Mr G. W.

Combs, Clinton,, The French committee of the Separ- ate School Board at Ottawa have made a demand upon the Brothers who con- trol the French schools for immediate reforms in tale direction porntedvl'o in - the report of the Ontario Government Commission. Mr Glassford Bell, of Glasgow, Scot- land, cattle importer, was in Ottawa recently. He said that from long ob- servation there is no case of pleuro- pneumonia in Canada, but all the same he recommends a Government investi- gation, because if the country rests un- der a suspicion, the next move in Eng- land will be against Canadian dairy produce. A very shocking accident occurred the other morning, whereby Alex. Mitchell, of Listowel], lost his life. The old gentleman was about 75 years of age. His wife has been lying very ill, indeed at the point of, death. At an early hour her husband, with a lamp in his hand, went down stairs to get some water, made a mis-step and fell, breaking his neck. A little nep- hew arrived in time to put out the fire caused by the lamp falling, otherwise the house would undoubtedly have been burned, A communication has been received at Toronto from a London solicitor re- specting the prohibition test case, which says:-Duringthe opening of the case before the rivy Council, the committee appeared to be strongly against the appellants, but during the respondents' argument this view ap- peared to have become modified, and it is the general opinion that there is very considerable doubt as to the re- sult. There is certainly a difference of opinion among the members of the committee. It is impossible to say which way the majority are. Lord Watson appeared to be in favor of the Dominion, and Lord Herachell appear- ed to be strongly in favor of the Pro- vince. The last revised Dominion voters' lists contain the names of 1,353,735 persons eli- gible to vote at Federal elections. This is an increase of 221,498 over the number of names on the list of 1891. The increase of voters in Ontario is 81,000. But a large number of those whose names are put on the list will not vote,except by proxy; they are dead. Many thousands of voters have gone to foreign countries. They will be en- titled to come back and vote at the ensuing election, while many thousands of men who have come of age or otherwise acquired the right to vote since the list was made up, will be prevented from going to the polls. This is the unfairness of the present Fran- chise Act exemplified. Mr and Mrs Chas. Hitesman, an aged couple of Elkhorn, Ind., have been pe- culiarly unfortunate with their child - f en. Twenty years ago their son John was accidently burned to death. In 1880 their son was killed in a runaway. In a few months James, while return- ing from a dance, jumped from a train at a railway grossing, and received in- juries from which he died in a few hours. A few months later another son, George, was Injured by the explo- sion of a rotator in a paper mill, was confined to his bed for a year, and left a cripple for life. On Friday the other son, Aso, fell 40 feet from a tree and will probably die. Hundreds of miles of waving grain and a harvest such as has not been equalled on the same area in any part of the world, is what Prof. Macoun, of the Geological Survey, says with re - Pitcher.'s Cout+ ro 1, TUE CLINT N NEW EISA • 24e; will secure the NEW. ERA to the end or the e r. said to this year's crop i* the North, west, Prof. Macoun hasreturued from the West, where he has been engaged In botanical field work all summer, The scene of his labors was from Moose aw south to the 4merka bound- aey, During the summer hP,ravelled more than 1,200 miles in a wagon through the country, and no one is better qualified to speak of the coun- try than he. Vol' the past fifteen years�Prof. Macaws has been in the )Northwest almost every summer, and he cannot recall a crop at all to ap- proach the crop of this year. In all his travels this summer he did not see one poor looking crop of grain or grass. A slick game was successfullyworked on a well-to-do farmer near ait, Fri- day, which just cost that gentleman $1,500. A few days ago a very slick young man called on Mr Angus Mc- Bean, owner of a very fine farm within a mile of Galt, and represented himself as a son of Wen. King, of the Canadian Bank of Commerce, Berlin. He had been sent by Mrs McArthur, a wealthy lady who was to negotiate for purchase of the farm, to which she had taken a liking. Mr McBean was not anxious to sell the place, but finally agreed to do so, the price asked being $20,000. This suited the agent, and he was to report to his client and return if satis- factory to her and complete the pur- chase. He arrived and proceeded to close the deal. He was quite willing to deposit $5,000 or $10,000 to bind the bargain, but Mr .McBean was also to deposit $1,500, as a guarantee that he stick to his agreement. Both men came. to town, got the money and went back to the farm, where the mon- ey was counted, $6,500 altogether, put in a tin box, which Mr McBean was to hold until 4 o'clock, when the purchas- er would return with the balance of the purchase money. The purchaser in the meantime was to hold the key of the box. While these arrangements were going on a second party pet in an appearance, saying he had walked from Galt to see Mr King. The new arrival was anxious to catch the train, and Mr King agreedto drive him to Galt. The parties drove away, leaving with Mr McBean the box, as he sup- posed, with the money. They had not been gone long when Mr McBean deci- ded to open the box, and to his surprise all that it contained was some worth- less papers. He immediately informed the police and telegraphed to different points, but so far no trace of the par- ties has been found. SUCCESSFUL PUPILS.
