Canadian Pacific, Railway land sales at Winnipeg are still booming. The oompany sold 17,000 acres last month for $56,000, which is three times the quantitysold last year during the same month. The Canada and Northwest Land Company daring July Sr; -sold 4,092 acres for $23,391, whioh exceeds the eales,of Jaly, 1896, by 400 per cent. J}l There is One thing certain—Canada has got a large amount of advertising this year, and been brought more pro- -minently before the commercial world than ever before, circumstances which should certainly contribute to its ma- terial advancement and help its busi- nese interests, if our producers will only avail themselves of the enlarged opportunities. Crisp County Clippings. Mr. Joseph Pugh, of Bluevale, has 'bought out Mr. Hugh Johnston's livery business. Wm. Beckett, of Ashfield, and Miss Johnston, of one of the eastern pro- ; 'inces, were, during the last week unit- ed in the bonds of matrimony at Blyth; nuptials were performed by Rev. Mc - Miss Alice Duff, of Bluevale, who wrote on the P. S. L. exam. this year, ': nade the higheetmarks in East Huron, and the second highest in Huron Co. :She obtained 950 narks, making 91 out r of 100 in history, and 74 out of 75 in :'Physiology and Temperance. very happy wedding was celebrat- $ed Tuesday evening, Aug. 3, at the resi- dence of Thomas Campbell, of Poplar Row, when his only daughter, Agnes, °.; was married to James Sallows, of Dun - amore, Asea., son of Thomas Sallows, of Colborne. bile Mr W. Snell,and Mr G. Math - n, of Exeter, were driving from Lu - an, they collided with another rig and both were thrown out. Mr Matheson had a rib broken and was badly shaken up. Mr Snell escaped uninjured. The Gorrie public school trustees have purchased park lotNo.24, contain- ing over two and one-half acres for a school ground. A new school will be erected thereon sometime in the near 'future. Mrs. James Wilson lost her canary tird'by death, one day last week. Mrs Wilson had the bird in her possession for 15 years. This is considered a long lime for a bird of this kind to live, as the average age is 10 years. Mrs. Joseph Breckenridge, of the boundary east of Bluevale, set a tur- key on a nest of eggs and the gobbler came=along..anr1-.gathered seven_of._the. eggs to himself and sat on them close- ly for a few days when he was discov- ered and shut out. We wish the old fellow had been allowed to sit to see What luck he would have had. e' For some time there has been in- tense excitement over the immense gold finds throughout tha Dominion but there was no suspicion of gold be- ing discovered in Goderich township. One day last week a residental farmer who was inilkiug the cows discovered a rich find, the precious metal being a ; gold wedding ring presented his wife some fifteen years or more since. The lady had lost the ring about the time Of her marriage and the find of gold has doubtless revived many happy recollections •• A very sudden death occurred in this township on Sunday evening last. Mr. Robert Campbell, of lot 15, con. I, Prased peacefully away. Mr. Camp- bell ate his tea on Sunday evening about 5 o'clock, and afterwards took a stroll out into the orchard, where he wa8 seized with a vomiting fit. Mem- bete of the family noticed what had happened and he was carried into the ". house, when medical aid was summon- s' ed, but he died in a few minutes. De- taee" bad not been feelinwell for sotlledtime but nothing of a serous na- ture had been anticipated. Mr. Camp- - bell` was in his 69th year, being one of the Oldest settlers in the township, and Was highly respected. Mr. Campbell leaves a widow and a family of seven children to mourn his sudden demise. I flit. tl%iitd ; h ofa yvlty Crisp County Clipping Walter Carruthers, Wingham, who was injured at Haugh's barn raising and was removed to Toronto Hospital, to improving very slowly. The Brussels Post has passed its 25th milestone and its genial editor,Mr Kerr, is making a betterpaper of it every year. Allan P. Hoag, foundrymau, Wrox- eter, made an aseignmgnt for the bene- fit of hid creditors to J. Cowan. J. E. Swarts, Wingham, purchased the pacer, Maple Leaf, from J. O'Leary of Brussels. Mr Smarts has also per - chased the running horse "Norine" from J. Donoghin, of Sarnia. Mrs M.L. Ashley, Lcndesboro, leaves for Chicago the latter part of this week, where she intends to fit herself as an evangelist in the Moody school. Miss Hattie Wade, of Wingham, left town on Monday morning for Provid- ence, R. I., and yesterday she was join- ed in the holy bonds of matrimony to Eugene Moor'house,formerlyofLondon. While working in the planing mill on Thursday last, J.Olufi'., of Seaforth, un- fortunately had his finger altnostsever- ed, and consequently has not been able to work since. Owing to the severe competition and hard times, the firm of J C. Smith & Co., Seaforth, have found it necessary to assign for the benefit of their credit- ors. There need be no uneasiness on the part of the creditors, as we understand they will he paid in full. While watching the ball game at Brussels on Tuesday last, the little son of Geo. Howe was struck in the stom- ach with a foul ball and knocked un- conscious. The little fellow was soon brought too, and no serious results are anticipated. It is with feelings of the deepest re- gret that we record the death of Mrs James Johnston, of Blake, which oc- curredat her home on Monday after- noon. She was a very great sufferer for some t;me, but bore it all with Christian resignation. Much sympa- thy is extended to the bereaved ones in their sad affliction. On Wednesday evening of last week an interesting game of football was played in the agricultural hall between the Br ussels and Blyth junior clubs. An accident happened one of the Brussels team by receiving a severe kick. The unfortunate was taken to the Queen's hotel,a doctor was sent for who attend- ed to his injuries. It is with great sorrow we record the death of John W. Bray, beloved son of'JohnBray, merchant, of Wrox- eter. This young man was in his 20th year, and was a man of sterling wcrth, noble principles and excellent charact- er. To know him was to love and es- teem him, and his demise has caused a void in our midst that will not soon be filled. • On Thursday evening last, about 8 o'clock, Mrs Cumming, wife of the late Wm. Cumming, of Egwondviile,passed to her eternal home. Mrs Cumming had been ill for ever a year, suffering from lung trouble but was confined to her bed but a few weeks when death released her. The deceased was born in the yerr 1851, and was a daughter of Mrs Finlayson, of Tuckersmith, who is still living. The voters' lists for Tuckersmith are now out, and were first posted up on Aug.6th. The number of voters who are entitled to vote at both elections to the Legislative Assembly and Muni- cipal elections is 700; the number en- titled to vote at Municipal elections only, 124; and the number entitled to vote at elections to the Legislative Assembly only, I06; total number of voters, 930. Total number of persons eligible to'serve on the jury, 493. A team belonging to T. Jenkins, of Turn berry, broke through the gangway leading to W. Armour's stable on the Diagonal road, on Monday evening, while drawing a load of hay into the stable. One horse went completely through and the other remained . strad- dlea beam. Withdifflcnity they were extricated from their peculiar position, not much the worse of the accident. The harness was somewhat demoral- ized. One of Wingham's best citizens left town yesterday in the person of J. H. Hiscocks, who has gone to Tara, where he has accepted the position as book- keeper. Mr Hiscocks has sat at both municipal and school boards most ac- ceptably,and has been warden and ves- try clerk of St. Pauls church, both of which offices he filled with credit to himself and to the satisfaction of the congregation. • When Mr Henry Wurm was draw- ing in hay one day recently he met with an accident which resulted fatally. One of the boys, who was assisting him fell from the ladder near the horses, frightening them, and they ran away. Mr Wurm, who attempted to stop them, vie k .ocked_down,, .and. _the_ wagon passed over his ` legs. His in- juries were not thought serious, and not much attention was paid them,but in a few days he grew rapidly worse, and on Sunday he died. Mr Alex. Bryan, of Morris, has raised a collie dog in a very unusual manner. Before the pup's eyes were opened, it's mother was run over by a wagon and killed, so Mr Bryan fitted a nipple into a large bottle filled with milk, andpro- ceeded to bring the puppies up "by hand," like "Pip" in "Great Expecta- tions." if left alone with his bottle, sometimes be would gorge himself un- til he couldn't move, and if the child- ren took the bottle away when- they thought he had enough, he would cry for it like a real baby. Trace Jackson, the man who stole a bicycle from Mr Alex. Mustard, of Brucefleld, and afterwards came to Seaforth with the wheel and took one of Arnoldi & Hare's in exchange, has been wanted in Whitby ever since Oc- tober 12th, 1890, and it is probable he will be taken there to stand his trial on a charge of larceny, jail breaking and assaulting a turnkey. Jackson has been identified as the man named George Arnold, who was in costody at Whitby for larceny and who knocked Turnkey Bruce on the head with a club about five o'clock one afternoon, took the keys and escaped. Detective Graham, of London, has the warrant for Jackson, who was brought before Judge Edward Elliott, of London,, on Thursday for sentence for stealing the bicycle. He was allowed off on sus- pended sentence and taken to Whitby only to be returned to London in case he is not convicted, Jackson' has ad - f ('tet'! that he 10 the jail-bxctt.ket'.

THE CLINTON NEW ERA Crisp County Clippings Mr. Walder Scott, of Brussels, won the first prize for tossing caber at the annual Scottish games given ett Hart- ford, Conn., on Monday. Pearl Moore, the little daughter of Mr. Wm. Moore, of Winghaw, had the misfortune to fall from a cherry tree one day last week and break her left arm. On Sunday last Mrs Ed Denyer, of Grey passed peacefully away aged 30 years. The cause of death was gallop- ing consumption which she contracted some time ago. Mrs. R. Weir and family left Exeter on Wednesday for their new home near Petrolia, where Rev. Mr. Weir recently accepted the pastorate of a Presbyterian congregation. On Tuesday night 13,st, the sad news reached Brussels that Mr James Kerr, of Manilla, Iowa, had died very sudden- ly at his home there. No particulars are given of the unfortunate man,s death. While raking on Thursday last, Mr, Samuel Hart, of Benrniller•, met with an accident. His horse an away and by some means, Mr. Hart ger his leg in one of the wheels, breaking it in two places. On Tuesday last Mrs. John H. Willis died at her home inStehen township. p The deceased had a very severe attack of erysipelas and never recovered from the effects. She was a daughter of R. Leathorn, of Exeter, and leaves a hus- band and family of small children to mourn her loss. Mr. John 14alkwill, of Fullerton has a goose st hich he values more than any cow en lis farm. She is thirty-four years old and blind, nevertheless she hatched twice this year, Mr. Balkwill brought the fowl from Eugland some thirty years ago. One day last week while Mr. Gavin Davidson, of Wroxeter, was shoeing a horse and had just drove a nail into its hoof the animal gave a sudden jerk and the point of the nail caught in Gav- in's leg and tore a very nasty gash, which will make him limp for some time. The Centennial Hotel at Hensel), for many years ably conducted by James Coxworth, was on Monday leased to Alexander Robinson, of Goderich, for a term of 10 years at a rental of 5500 per annum, the new lessee to take pos- session of the hotel as soon ss the license can be transferred. Mr John Dietz, of Exeter met with a painful accident on Saturday last. He was engaged in the tile yard when a clop of earth fell on hint, breaking his leg at the knee joint and otherwise injuring him. It will be some time be- fore he will have the use of the limb again. Through some blunder on the part of the paper house that furnishes the Standard with its printing paper they did not receive their regular supply for this week's issue and consequently they are obliged to only furnish their read- ers with two pages. The Goderich Angling society will leave on Saturday for a week's fishing at Main Station, the society's property on the Lake Huron side of the Bruce Peninsula. As the waters around the island are always crowded with fish, we may expect to hear of a great de- crease in the bass supply as a result of the jourpey. H. Widg, of :Shipka, was in Dash- wood on Monday. While here some miscreant entered the shed where his horse was and cut his lines to pieces and stole two ivory rings which were on the lines. The, rings weir, after- wards found on Harvey Ballback, who was arrested and taken before an Exe- ter magistrate, but as it could not be proven against him he was let off. The many friends of Mr Win. Wilson of Hensel, will regret to learn of his death, which occurred at his daughter's home at Bott.ineau, N. D. The deceas- ed was over 80,years old and had been ill but a short time. Mr Wilson was at one time, one of the most prominent men in this section, haviug filled many public offices in the municipal and po- litical arena. He was a Conservative in politics. On Tuesday Richard Culbert was brought before Judge Masson to plead on a charge of shooting. Wm. Kelly, of Biddulph with intent. The county at- torney prosecuted and J. T. Garrow, Q. C., appeared for the defendant. Cul- bert entered a plea of not guilty and was committed for trial at the fall term of the High Court of Justice. An ap- plication for bail was granted, the de- fendant and a surety each giving bonds for one thousand dollars. On July 7th, Hannah Sinclair, the wife of Peter Sinclair, of Grey, died suddenly. Her sickness and death was of such a nature that many stories were in circulation as to the cause, the report most common being that of poison. Mrs; Sinclair possessed some --rrrorre?,y-and--a--life-ins iiia-nee--ponies-for-- $1000, which, perhaps, added to the cause of accusing some one in aiding her death. Peter Sinclair, her hus- band, ordered an inquest. This was held by Coroner Holmes, of Goderich, at Cranbrook. The medical evidence showed conclusively that death result- ed from natural causes, and the jury rendered a verdict accordingly. MCKILLCP OCUNCIL DOINGS.—COun- cil met in Jones' hall, Lead bury, or the 3rd inst., and total cheques issued on treasurer since lastmeeting, amoun- ting to $624 C3, were passed. By-law for levying County rate, township rate, and township school rate, and the several school rates, was passed. County rate is 1 62-100 mills in the dol- lar; township rate 1 4-5 mills; to'tvnehip school rate, 1 mill; the school section rate is from 03.100 to 1 mill in the dol- lar. Union section No. 3 sent no re- quisition, as they have over $80 Gov- ernment grant in the treasurer's hands for years, it is likely that this amount, with township rate, is all they need. This section always expects their rates collected without a by-law, as they used to be, but they will not get their expectations this year. The reeve was authorized to attend the suit entered by the trustees of School Section No. 6 to compel the, council to pass a by-law to borrow money contrary to the wish- es of the ratepayers. The ratepayers who payed two years taxes for drain- age outlet in Grey township will have them refunded thisyear, if they request, so, at next meeting, if the Grey Munic- ipality is not taking any steps before that to proceed with the drain. Coun- cil adjourned to meet in Jones' hall, Leadbtlry, on Monday,.

They looted theship and then fled to the Acheen coast. An attachment has been issued at the office of Deputy Registrar Cowan against Hauipdeu Day, of L`nidon, for moneys received from a client for in vestment, and which, itis alleged, were misappropriated. The amount involv- ed is nearly 51000. ])ay is a mining broker, who left the city recently, and has not. returned. Ottumwa, Ia., was the centre of ter- rific thunder and hail storms on Aug. 4. The Rock Island passenger train, Chicago hound, was stopped by the storm. Hailstones in such quantities and size rolled on the track in the cuts that the tram was brought to estop. Every window in the train was brok- en. Crops were cut in pieces. The charge of murder has been pre- ferred against Mary McGraw, London, whose infant child was found in a trunk with a cord tied round its neck. She is still in the City Hospital under the surveillance of the police. It is al- together likely that she will have re- covered sufficiently by next Tuesday evening to appear before the coroner's inquest into the death of her child. o Nervous debility is a common complaint especially among women. The best medi- cal treatment for this disorder is a persist- ent course of Ayer's Sarsaparilla to cleanse and invigorate the blood. This being ac- complished, nature will do the rest. Detective Seligsohn, of Cleveland, who went to London a month ago in behalf of the alleged heirs of Barney Barnato, has written friends in that city that he will be back in a few days, and that Mrs Blackman, who said she was a daughter Df Barneto, is not his daughter. The average salary of a Presbyterian minister in the United States, accord- ing to the Interior, is but little more than that of a mechanic, although it requires seven years of costly prepara- tion. This is partly accounted for by overproduction. The annual increase of Presbyterian churches is 100; of min- isters, 114. On Aug. 5th the 7 -year-old daughter of Mrs Koyle, of Lindsay, was severe- ly burned. Her little brother Leon and herself were playing around a small bonfire when the flames caught the little girl's clothing. and before as- sistance resched her she was burned about the arms, neck and head. The boy bad both ar.ns burned in attempt- ing to save his sister. "Jack" Crosby, an aeronaut at Mer- iden,Conn. called Constable Wilkinson and, putting his arm around the con- stable, placed his mouth to his ear as if to whisper. Instead he deliberately took Wilkinson's left ear in his mouth and bit off a piece two inches long. He is charged with mayhem, which, un- der the Connecticut statutes, is pun- ishable by from seven to ten years' im- prisonment. Several times before he hes tried to bite persons. • • Otto Adler kept an all-night restua- rant in the lower storey of the house in whicn three men and one woman perished in Cincinatti. There were 17 men and women in one room in the se- cond story of this house. The occu- pants of this building refuse all infor- mation. None of the dead were burn- ed;. they were sutlocated by smoke from the fire in adjacent rooms. The only exit for escape was blocked by a bath -tub set tip on end at the head of -the-staivway: --The--semok-e-came--from- an adjacent room, where the fire was soon extinguished. It seems that' it was a wedding frolic, in which Guth, one of the dead men, was bridegroom, and the daughter of Landlord Adler was the bride. Still there is some doubt about wbo was the tride. The celebrants of the wedding used beer and cigarettes very freely and it was supposed cigarettes started the fire, and that beer started the somnolence, which, with the up -ended hath tub, was the indirect cause of so much fa- tality. It seems that while out of the 17, 4 were suffocated fatally, the other 13 suffered but slightly. The fire, it is now said, started from an exl.lesion of a gasoline stove. A business man is not the most patient creature in the world. He cannot wait to hear any long -drawn ont story of the cause of his ailment. He does't oare two straws of a fine spun theory of how he should treat himself. He may be predisposed to scrofula or consumption, "That," be will tell yon "has nothing to do with the case." He wants to be well. If he can be cured, write out a prescription and send in your bill. So, here's the fret part of the proposition. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is a microbe hunter and killer. Many persons of scrofulous blood, enootirage the breaking ont of unsightly sores,to prevent the disease going to the longs.
