Wingham Raeea.
The annual summer meeting of
the Wingham Turf Club was held on
Wednesday and Thursday of last
week. There was a large crowd of
spectators present each day and the
meeting was the most eneceesfnl in
the history of the club. There were
eight of the fastest horses In Canada
in the free.for.all and it wan without
doubt the most sensational ever raced
in Canada. In almost every beat
of the wonderful race a blanket
would have covered the eight horses,
and the time shows that every horse
was out to win. Dandy Hal got tho
first two heats, beating Two Strike
in the first heat by a head, and in
the second heat be bad no more from
Maggie Usher, who won the last
three heats from Black Joe by less
than half a leogth. Summary :

General Banking Business Transactett
The Canadian Pacific railway has
adopted on its best trains automatic'
steam and air couplers, a simple in-
vention, by means of which the sys-
tem of pipes conveying the steam for
car heating purposes, the steam fur
the signal pipes and the compressed
air attachment for the brakes are
sutomaticaily coupled by the mere
impact of the cars.
The inventton is a casting whieh
is clamped into the draw bar con-
sisting of guide horns arranged dia.
gonally, containing the three sys-
tems of pipes which when coupled
make an absolutely perfect connec-
tion steam and air joint, and do away
entirely with the necessity of train-
men making the separate connections
of each pipe. The impact of the
ears makes the connection as in-
stantaneous as Aho Or coupling is
made, and the uncoupling is equally
expeditious.
♦ Peculiar Fish Story.
The latest IIshing story comes from
Rock Point camp, below Barrietleid,
where a large Kingston colony is
spending the summer months. The
truth of the story is vouched for by
prominent business men of the city,
A young mac was out fishing cn
Monday, when he hooked a small
baa. When he saw his catch he
was in no hurry to "pull in." Fin-
ally, however, he did so, and was
astonished to see to what proportions
the fleh had grown in a few minutes.
It came up hard, and when it neared
the surface the young man discov
ered he had a monster pike inatead
of a base. He was just in the act of
pulling it in when it escaped, and
the bass again came to view, and
was safely landed. The big fish had
,wallowed the smaller prey, but re-
linquished it when on the verge of
being itself captured, Bat the little
bass changed so suddenly to a mon-
ster pike, and then so suddenly back
again, that the young man wondered
if somebody had put " strong drink "
into his morning's coffee.
—Mr. Christian Kloepfer,
Guelph, and a well-known business
man, Bays : "As an employer of over
400 men, I have studied the industrial
,conditions somewhat, and think that
the next wave of depression will
strike England in about two and a
half years, aUd America soon after."
SAVINGS DEPARTMENT.
Sums of $1 and upwards received and interest allowed,

Can This be Treat
The Andover, Hampshire, Adver-
tiser, contains the following: "The
people of Martinique are a very
wicked crowd. The Kennet (relief
ship) arrived at Fort -an -France on'
Sunday afternoon. They found the
town all excited. Some election was
going on. Banda of music were
playing in the streets. The theatre
was open ready for the play in the
evening; a masked ball was to be
held. The acting governor asked
first who was to pay the freight, and
even wanted the gentlemen to pay
ditty for the things they were giving
them. They say, "Yee, St. Pierre
is gone," and were perfectly indiffer-
ent. " It seems ridiculous, they
added, sending one cent to Marti-
nique. What for? 1'he people are
all dead," On Good Friday the mob
killed a pig, hung it upon a cross,
with a crown upon its head, repre-
senting our Saviour, then buried it;
they dug it np on Easter Sunday,
and dressed it as a priest, making a
mockery of' his death and resurrec-
tion, and yet on His Ascension day
they were called to their account.
Sodom and Gomorrah must have been
similar to Martinique."
—It is expected that 300 dele-
gates will attend the general Metho-
dist conference, which will be held
at `Vinnipeg commencing September
4th, The ministerial representative
from Goderich district is Rev. Dr.
Daniel, of Goderich. The lay repre-
sentatives are Mr, R. W. McKenzie,
of Goderich, and Mr. R. Holmes,
DLP., of Clinton. The general con•
ference meets once every four years,
and this one wig be the nineteenth
since 1874,
