Harland was descending a ladder from the roof of the Dry -Goods Palace. When about twenty-five feet from the ground one of the rungs broke and it was only by great presence of mind that he escaped more serious results. His bask and full weight came against, a lower rung. He held on and was able to reach the bottom. although he has since bsen crippled, being only able to move about. THE APPLE TRADE.—The latest re- ports of sales at Liverpool and Glas- gow are not at all encouraging. One late report says the market has col- lapsed, and that green fall fruit, in- cluding colverts and other swill is un• saleable. A report later—Oct. 2nd— says there is a thoroughly demoralized market at former quotations. Owing to the depreciating quality of fruit the rejections are very heavy and in many cases the freight will not be realized. The same reports says "when there is no money in Kings, Ribstons and 20 oz. pippins at 60c. in the West, what can you expect for Colverts and fall stuff ?" During the past week Huron buyers, we are credibly informed, have lost a large amount of money on their ship- ments during the past week. ABATE THE NUISANCE.—Of late several complaints have been made about the roughness of school boys toward each other.' In one case a buy was struck by a stone who was in conseqnence laid orf duty. Stone throwing is in all cases unwarranted and the guilty will in all cases, where evidence is clear, he punished and we are glad to know the authorities are looking after. such cases. Another trouble is the stronger boys pounding the weaker ones until they are unable to F. to school. In every case com- plaint should be laid to the school authorities and these abuses will be checked and if possible prohibited. A HAPPY BEE.—On Monday Dr. Shaw invited a number of citizens to a shingling bee. Among those present were:—Messrs D. A. Forrester, W. Paisly, George D. McTaggart, Ogle Cooper, W. P. Spalding, Capt. Combe, A. Porter, L. Kennedy, Fred Noble, Ike Read, W. Jackson, M. I). Mc- Taggart, A. J. Rollaway, W. Coats, Barge and Stevens. The party, ac- cording to experts, covered the build- ing to their entire satisfaction and the job is pronounced one of the hest in town. The doctor will he in a position to judge when the work is tested by the fall and winter weather. JOINED IN WEDLOCK.—Last Wed- nesday at 2.30 p. m. a very interesting event was solemnized at the residence of the bride's mother, Mary Street, when Miss Libbie M. Gauley was united in marriage to Mr. Noble Lovett, of the Base Line. Promptly on time the bride appeared and looked charming in a pretty dress of cream lustre, supported by ber'lousin, Mies Flora Miller, and the happy grootn by Mr. Albert Mcfrien. The interestng ceremony was performed by Rev. Mr. Miltyard. of the 14ttenintry street Methodist church. The bride was well remembered by ber f"r'iw ride and'reila- t ives as the beautiful array of preeen to folly testified. The happy couple left on the 4.17 train for London to apend the honeymoon prior to takingup their future home on the Base ine. On behalf of their many friends we extend congratulatidne to Mr. and 11$rs. Lovett. e m THE REGISTRARSHIP.—Just now the Registrarship of Huron seems to be a vexed question.
