PAUL'S UHURCH.—A largely -attended vestry meeting in the school room last Wednesday evening, to con- sider the free will offering as at present or the adoption of the pew rent sys- tem, almost unanimously favored the latter. Dr. Freeborn, as one of the Wardens, went into the matter most thoroughly from all standpoints. The meeting gave the Wardens power to allot pews and in accordance with the Canon the minister will call a meeting to decide as to rents. LOCAL UNION EXECUTIVE MEETING. —On Thursday evening, the 14th inst., a meeting of the Local Union Execu- tive was held at the home of Mr. Wil- Iiam Cooper. Three items of business awaited conclusions ; they were as fol- lows: —1. The subjects for the next Lo- cal Union to be held in Ontario St. Methodist Church early in January. 11. Nomination of officers for the en - ening year. III. The Sabbath services at the House of Refuge. As to No. 1, the subjects chosen were (a) A Chris- tian's relation to the Sabbath; (h) Christ's methods in personal work. The former was alloted to Holrnesville and the latter given to Turners. Offi- cers were then nominated and the this d item reluctantly left over to the more responsible parties for further discus- , sion. The secretary hopes that the in- tei:ested public may bear the January meeting in mind and that one of the best meetings yet held, may greet all interested workers. SPECIAL COUNCIL MEETING.—There was a special meeting of the Town Council last Friday evening, the Mayor, Reeve Kennedy, Councillors Bruce, Overberry, McMurray, Taylor, McKen- zie and Gilroy being present. The ob- ject of the meeting was to decide as to tendering a banquet to the members of the County Council and to take some action in regard to improving the road on Albert Street north during the win- ter months. It was decided after con- siderable discussion to tends ban- quet, which will be held at We Hotel Clarendon on December 5th after the concert in the town hall. The best mode of making Albert Street north passable during the winter Months was thoroughly argued and *it was finally carrieuclor Bru e,d to build fon the orttysrods of getion of w ireifence from the town over the hill, the Messrs. Andrews to perform the work at 40 Cts. per rod. On a vote being called for, the yeas were Kennedy, Bruce, Over- Mbury, . Taylor, Gilroy, and the nays urray and McKenzie, the later favoring a high board fence. All were unanimous that something should ire done, and the wire fence will dem- onstrate whether or not it will prove satisfactory. Last winter the cost to the town to keep the road open was more than what the erection of the fence will he and there cannot be any great mistake in the investment. Wm.

" The land for the cemetery was originally purchased by the late James Sperling and a living desceddant still holds the deed of the pproperty,. Those who have friends interred there were greatly astonished and justly horrified on learning last week that monuments erected to the dead had been removed and the sacred ground plowed up. The matter is being investigated and legal steps will likely be taken against those who may have been guilty of desecrating God's acre. CAPTAIN ANDREWS IN TROUBLE.— The following from the Globe of Thurs- day refers to the blind man who mar- ried the blind girl Thornton here and is said to have afterward deserted her : —The afternoon Police Court was occu- pied for some time yesterday in hear- ing charges preferred by Inspector Archibald's department against Capt. Andrews, the blind life-saver, df sell- ing tobacco to minors. The Captain keeps a little cigar store on Yonge street, and it was alleged that he made a practice of supplying young boys with cigarettes, chewing and smoking to- bacco, etc. Three or four lads testified that they had purchased from the de- fendant, and the captain, who conduct- ed his own case, claimed in reply that he always questioned his customers when he had suspicions, adding that he had offended one or two dudes with effeminate voices by asking them how old they were. (Great laughter.) One of the boys admitted that he had given defendant a note from his uncle author- izing him to supply some tobacco, and Captain Andrews produced the note, and added that boys often gave him blank pieces of paper, saying they were orders, and he didn't know to the contrary until his wife would tell him afterwards. In the course of the case defendant spoke bitterly of the alleged persecution to which he was subjected by the police, and of the difficulties he encountered. in earning hie living on account of his blindness. The police, on the other hand, declared that he had been repeatedly warned and that he persisted in knowingly breaking the aw. In the end a conviction was re- corded, but under the circumstances Magistrate Miller thought he would be justified in allowing defendant to go on suspended sentence.
