Mr Hayccck, Patron leader, has been
pretty busy during the summer, hav-
ing addressed no less than 77 meetings.
This is only "pie" for a man who can
talk as freely as Mr Haycock.
Mr Lockie Wilson, said to be until
recently a leading Conservative of
Glengarry, has come out flat-footed
against the present policy of high tax-
ation. There are lots more like him,
but they are afraid to speak out,
While we firmly believe in the uni-
versality of the Christian religion, we
have long had out doubts as to the ad-
visability of sending missionaries to
China, and in view of the recent hor-
rible massacre of missionaries, any so-
ciety should go slow in sending• out
others who may become victims ot a
like fate.

A middle aged man named Penhale,
from near Dashwood, went to Exeter
on Tuesday, and went home with a
broken nose, the result of a quarrel
with an Exeter youth.
The Mail charges the Globe with
wilful misrepresentation in reference
to certain figures connected with the
canal scandals. We are not in a po-
sition to verify the Mail's charge, but
if true it is certainly something very
unusual tender the present manage-
ment of the Globe. So fair and truth-
ful has the Globe been regarded that
even prominent Conservatives and
journals have complimented it there-
for. We hope the Mail's charge is un-
founded, for no permanent advantage
is ever gained by misrepresentation, a
fact that even the Mail might take to
heart.

Barley is a poor sample and but little

We regret to record anothi;r death,
in the person of Mr John Gellman, sr.,
of Hay, which took place on Monday.
Deceased was well known and highly
respected by all, being one of the first
settlers of the township.
While playing around the house the
other day, Katie, the little daughter of
Mr R. H. Collins, Exeter, fell off the
verandah, and broke her arm near the
wrist. A few weeks ago she fele off
the clothes reel stand and broke the
same arm z little higher up.
Town Clerk Ferguson, of Wingham,
received a letter a few days ago, from
some person signing himself X., con-
taining $2. The writer said that some
six or seven years ago 0 young mon
lived in Wingham. and when poll tax
was demanded of him he gave the
young man a certificate to the effect
that he had done statute labor in an
adjoining municipality, and thus re-
lieved the young man from paying tax.
X now pays it himself, and thus re-
lieves his conscience.
Again are we reminded of the frailty
of human strength, in the death of Mr
John I. Taylor, son of Mr John H. Tay-
lor, of St. Helens. The deceased had
been living in the State of Dakota,
where he contracted the trouble which
terminated fatally on Sept. 5th. He
was a young man, 37 years of age, and
one of a family of nine, eight ot whom
survive him. Hoping to recover his
health, he returned from Dakota about
eight months ago, and during that
time had been gradually sinking, not-
withstanding the assistance of the best
medical att endance.
A recent issue of the League, of
Glasgow, Scotland, contains a lengthy
obituary notice of ex -Bailie Wm. Ure,
J,P., brother of Rev Dr Ure, of Gode-
rich, who died on July 5th, aged 65
years. Deceased was a man of great
activity; successful in F,usiness affairs,
and a foremost spirit in public, social
and religions works. For 34 years he
was a member of the Scottish Temper-
ance League, and for 16 years one of
its directors.
An eight year old lad, son of Mr Jn.
Scott, of Roxboro, took it into his head
that he must go to Toronto to see the
big show. Accordingly he walked into
Seaforth on Saturday, barefooted, and
in his home clothes, and took passage
on the five o'clock train east. His pa-
rents supposed that he had gone to his
uncle's to remain over night. As he
failed to turn up on Sunday they be-
came alarmed, and on making enquir-
ies they found out the palticulars.
After a good deal of telegraphing and
anxiety, he was picked up in Toronto
by a policeman, who sent him home by
the train Monday morning, and he ar-
rived there Monday afternoon, none
the worse of his adventure.

The Winnipeg Nor' Wester, the Con-
servative organ, says the people there
"are not feeling particularly cordial
towards the leader of the Diminion
Government." The feeling is by no
means confined to Winnipeg.
The Seaforth Sun says:—Informa-
tion has come to us of strange conduct
on the part of a McKillop farmer. If
current reports are true, he, becoming
enraged at a female in his employ,
struck her a -violent blow across the
head, from the effects of which she
shortly afterwards died. The corpse is
said to have been buried in a compara-
tively short space of time after life had
become extinct, not even so much as a
coffin being brought into requisition.
We can hardly credit the rumor, yet,
if circumstances are in the least suspi-
cious, the platter should be thoroughly
sifted.
On Friday John Graham, an inmate
of the jail, who has been a familiar
character about Goderich fora number
of years, succumbed to the infirmities
of old age, and through the kindness
of a few citizens, who respected the old
man in his poverty, he was decently
interred on Sunday afternoon. On
Tuesday another inmate died, an old
woman named Sheppard, whose hus-
band was found dead a couple of years
ago, under what was for a time
thought to be suspicious circumstan-
ces. This poor old body had apparent-
ly no friends, and her remains, after
being prepared by undertaker Brophey
for shipment to Toronto, for use in
some of the colteges,were claimed only
at the last hour by a brother, and in-
terred.
Mr Peter Mc lay, of the 9th con. of
Tuckersmith, met with a had accident
on the 9th inst., while going to town
with a horse and light waggon. He
was going out the side road, and when
near Mr Case's farm he metan old ac-
quaintancd by the name ot Casey, who
had not seen him for some time, and to
Cive McKay an Irishman's welcome
asey got up on the fence and began
waving his hat as a preliminary to the
three cheers for the Highlanders in
general and the McKays in particular.
The three cheers, however, were never
given. The Irishman's politeness was
too much for the horse, it could not
stand it. It took a sudden fright and
ran, and soon landed McKay and his
load into the ditch. The reach of the
waggon broke, the horse going one
way and McKay the other.

Charles Neill, a polisher at the Ver-
ity Plow Works, Brantford, Wednes-
day afternoon met with a very painful
accident whilst engaged at his work.
The polishing of plows is done by a
swift running grind stone, whilst the
plough is slung under it in such a
style that a man can easily swing it so
as to give the whole a smooth surface.
While at this work, the plough which
Neill was handling slipped in some
wily and he fell suddenly forward on
the wheel, which ground the whole
back of his right hand off to the bone
before the poor fellow could get away.

At a session of the Hamilton district
of the Hamilton conference, at which

that the meeting was of a unanimous
opinion that the gates of the Grimsby

One day recently, as a team of horses
belongingto Miss Mustard, of the 2nd
con. of Tckersmith, were standing on
the barn floor, while a load of grain
was being removed from the waggon
attached to them, they gotfrightened
and ran away. Mr Simon Watson
was on the waggon at the time. hut as
the lines had dropped under the horses'
feet, he was unable to get control ,if
them. In passing through a gate the
waggon got fast, and Mr Watson was
thrown out, tweaking his leg. The
main portion of the waggon stuck here,
and the horses got away with the
front wheels. In their mad course
they ran foul of a fence, one horse fall-
ing down, and the other, a valuable
mare, falling over its mate, receiving
such injuries that it died soon after-
wards.

magnificent sample, and it weighed 62
pounds and over per bushel. Peas•lltre
also a splendid sample, yield well and
are free from bugs. The pea crop, Mr
Clegg says, Is the best there has heen
in this section for years. Oats are a
poor quality, being both dark in color

A most extraordinary case came
before the Montreal courts on Thurs-
day. Two sailors from the steam-
ship Durham City (Capt. Thompson)
laid an information against the chief
engineer and the second engineer for
assault. During the testimony the fact
transpired that one of the crew, John
Locks, was picked up and thrown into
the stoke hole by the second engineer,
and that nothing more was seen of
him, Capt. Thompson denied the
charge, and laid an information against
the sailors for deserting their ship.
The German consul has asked for a
full investigation into the case.
John W. Strewn, a prominent local at-
torney and politician, was granted a di-

Flora Strewn, who was granted a divorce
from him last June. Strewn had lived
happi,y with his first wife for twelve years,
but became smitten with Emma Cullity,
of Indianapolis. Mrs Strewn obtained a
divorce, and three days later Strewn mar-
ried the Indianapolis woman. After liv-
ing with her in his old home for three
weeks he was smitten with remorse, and,
sending for his first wife and their child,
was forgiven. July 20th he tilled a bill for
divorce from his bride, and on the conven-
ing of court Friday was granted a decree
Re -marriage to bis first wife followed.
Saturday's Illustrated Buffalo Express
contained several flashlight pictures of
spiritualistic scenes held at Lily Dale, the
celebrated American spirit resort. In one
of them the portrait of a well-known Lon-
don spiritualist stands out plainly. The
photographs have been the cause of expul-
sion from camp of two mediums. When
the negatives were developed it was found
that one of the materialized spirits wore
woolen undershirts, that another had a
pearl shirt button, that one of the mediums
had some white draping looaely concealed
in bis sleeve, and that several of the ma-
terialized wore false beards. The effect
has been a severe shook to the pronounced
spiritualists of the district. In the pho-
tographs of the alleged spooks several faces
of people well known about Lily Dale were
recognizable.
The annual report of the Farmers
institute of the province for 1894 has

in addition, the first report of the

containing an interesting accc"unt of

Guelph Agricultural College. The re-
port Is of great interest to all who are
interested in agricultural matters.
G. W. Hosher was arrested at St.
Thomas the other day for stealing a
ride on the tc p of a dining car No. 10
M. C. R. express. Hosher was en
route from Marysville, Mo., to New
York, and had $105 in his pocket. The
magistrate offered if he paid his fare to
let hint off with costs. So he was
fined $12, including fare, and t2.5f)
costs, or ail) clays. He decided to take
tor- thirty days, but on being inform-
ed that the M. C. R. would garnishee
his money for the fare, and make a lot

()n Wednesday a prohibition conven-
tion was held in Boston, at which the
25th anniversary of the prohibition or-
ganization of the State was celebrrted,
and the veteran leader, General Neal
Dow, was one of the principle speak-
ers. A contemporary- in referring to
him, mentions a mean and despicable
practice that obtains at Portland, Me.,
where he resides: "Base fellows who
consume liquor from bottles o' nights
have the habit of tossing the empty
receptacles into Gen. Dow's back yard.
They apparently go out of their way
to do this thing. The consequence is
bigger crop of bottles in the distin-
guished teetotaler's cellar than he has
any desire for. It amounts to a bit of
not overfine persecution."
