He been absent just ten months, and that time has travelled many thousan miles and has a rich fund of gond things to tell of bis experiences on •uT,be race tracks of Europe, He went first to England, where he spent the month of March, then to Germany for a month and at the first of May was at Vienna, Austria. With; the exception of two months at Baden, a place about twenty miles from Vienna, he spent the whole Bummer at the Austrian capital. Aus- tria he thinks the greateat racing coun- try in the world, seeing at times as many as 30,000 people at a race meet- ing. He had good success with his horses and 9n the 6th of October, at Vieuna, he' drove Quarter Cousin, breaking the European record for two miles and being only three seconds be- hind the world's record for that dis- tance. A horse came running into town on Friday last and narrowly escaping a number of rigs in the yard, stabled itself at the Central. The horse belong- ed to Wm. Neal of Walton and had got away from his driver about two miles out and covered that distance in short order. On the way in it ran into a buggy in which were Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Dennison of McKillop. They were both thrown out but fortunately not much injured. A t the state elections in North Da- kota on Tuesday of last week, W. B. Dickson was eleoted State's Attorney and Robt. Work State Auditor.

Sheldon,s books, now so universally read, make it plain that that writer's hopes of the regener- ation of the world lie in getting Inds• vidnals more and more to do their daily tasks on Christian principles no matter what the sacrifice involved]., In the best known of his books. "In His Steps," he clearly looks to the n ews- paper, cartied on upon Christian prin- ciples, as largely the hope of the com- ing kingdom. In looking about him for a newspaper upon his model, he seems to have hit on the Montreal Witness, to which he has addressed a letter, part of which we quote:— "I have read the Witness with much interest. I cannot say that I know of any other daily paper in the United States that is conducted on such high Christian principles. I wish I did, for if ever we needed a paper in our coun- try we need it now." "Let me express to you my appreci- ation of the Christian heroism and con- sideration which make a paper like the Witness a possibility. I have always believed it possible for a Christian daily to succeed. You have proved that it can. So much of the ideal newspaper in "In His Steps" is there- fore real." "I pray that you may continue to be blessed in your work. 1 do Piot know a more glorious opportunity for build- ing up the kingdotn on earth than by means of Christian journalism. I take the greateat pleasure in sending the copies of the Witness to newspaper friends of mine for their Inspection. "Very cordially yours, "CHARLES M. SHELDON, "Topeka, Kanans." A big blizzard, with intensely cold weather, is reported from Kansas, Minnesota and Wisconsin, beam for a u,...._ -- for the mayoralty, but no one is m ,__ definitely in the field. As to the can, didates .lor councillors, onlf six of whom will be elected, none have an- nounced themselves as being definitely iu the field, though it is more than like- ly that some of the present councillors will seek re-eleotion. The vote for councillors will be throughout the whole town and not by wards as hereto- fore. We hope to see a good council elected for the coming year. For the county council we have not beard whether Messrs. Patterson and Stuart will offer for re.eleotion in No. 7 di. vision, which includes Wingham, Blyth, East and West Wawanosh. In No. 8 division, which includes Howiok,'rurn- berry and Wroxeter, the present ooun'. ciders are Messrs. Miller and Cook. We have not heard of any names being mentioned. In No. 6 division, which is made up of Brussels, Grey and Mor- ris, the present occupants are Messrs. Hislop and Mooney, both of whom will retire, Mr. Ilialop having been elected M. P. P. for East Huron and Mr. Moon- ey intends spending partof next season in the Northwest, and will therefore be unable to attend to the duties of the office. The names mentioned as aspir- ants for councillors in No. 6 division are Reeve Straohan and ex -Deputy Reeve Bryan of Grey ; Reeve Bowman and Andrew Sloan of Morris, and W. H. Kerr of Brussels. Nomination: for county councillors takes place on day, December 19th, and municipal nominations on December 26th. The elections for both will take place on Monday, January 2nd, 1899, Advance :—A meeting of the Mait- land Presbytery was held in Wingbam Presbyterian church on Tuesday, Rev. S. M. Whaley, Moderator, presiding. Considerable routine business was dis- posed of. Dr. Murray was nominated as Moderator of General Assembly. A deputation from Armow congregation appeared before the Presbytery asking instructions regarding the amount of arrears payable to the Rev. George Mo - Kay, their late pastor. The Presby- tery spent considerable time in dealing with the Whitechurch trouble. Repre- sentations from the congregation were heard on the matter ; Rev. A. McNabb made a brief reply. After much dis- cussion Mr. McNabb finally tendered his resignation, to be considered at the next meeting of the Presbytery. Rev. Mr. Reed, late the Reformed Presby. terian church, rob Teesw ate: , was present and made applioation to be received as a minister of the Canada Presbyterian church. Ms application, with papers relative to his literary and theological standing, were received and ordered to be transmitted to the General As- sembly. The next meeting will bo held in Kincardine, Messrs. John Gillespie, John Clegg, J. C. Bell, G. B. Roe, C Knechtel and Dr. J. R. MacDonald, the 'Wingbam hunting party, returned home on Wed. nesday afternoon from a fifteen days' bunting expedition in Muskoka. They brought back with them four fine deer, two of which were shot by Mr. Gillespie, one by Mr. Clegg, and the other mem- bers of the party claim an equal glory in the fourth. The party were well pleased with their trip and say they en- joyed themselves immensely. A meeting of those interested in the re -organizing of the Wingbam hockey club was held at the Dinsley House on Monday evening. The olub was re- organized with the following officers :— honorary president, J. E. Swarts ; honorary vice-presidents, C. A. Camp- bell and R. Clegg ; president, H. 0. Bell ; vice-president, H.

Mr. James Cochrane of East Wawa - nosh returned home last Thursday, after a three months' visit with his son Matthew, at Ox Bow, N. W. T. Mr. Cochrane speaks in glowing terms of the western country and enjoyed his visit very much. CATARRH OF LONG STANDING RE- LIEVED IN A FEW HOURS. 0 It is not alone the people of our own country, and prominent citizens like Urban Lippe M. P. of Joliette, Que., and other members •ot Parlia- ment. who, having used Dr. Agnew's Catarrhal Powder, pronounce it the moat effective rem- edy they have ever known, but people every- where are expressing their gratification at the effectiveness of this medicine. C. G. Archer, of Brewer, Maine, says : "I have had catarrh for several years. Water would run from my eyes and nose days at a time. About four months ago I was induced to try Dr. Agnew's Catarrh- al Powder, and since using the wonderful rem- edy I have not had an attack. I would not be without it." It relieves in ten minutes, Lncl9iow. A ear load of oats was shipped from the Luoknow Elevator Company's store house at the station here on the 4th of October last for Portland, Maine, and when it arrived at it's destination it was found to be 123 bushels and 18 pounds short in weight. An inveatis gation showed that several holes had been bored in the bottom of the car with an inch auger and the grain allow- ed to run out along the track. It ap- pears that the perpetrator of this dia- bolical act, after boring the holes in the oar, in order to cover up his dastardly work, put temporary plugs into the holes, well knowing that with the shak- ing of the oar these would drop out and allow the grain to fall to the ground. Before the oar reached Portland only a portion of the plugs had fallen out, however, or in all probability the whole car load of grain would have beep scat- tered along the rails. Who the culprit is, or where the oar was when the boles were bored into. It is a difficult matter to solve just now, but we understand the Grand Trunk Railway Company, who after all are the actual losers by this outrageous aot, will leave nothing undone to find out the guilty parties.
