We are sorry to lose nice Citizens like Mr. and Mrs. Grass. Mrs. Captain Dan , McKay was at Clinton for a short time, last week in. June, and on herr return her daughter heard the bus coining to the door, and fearing the bus horses might go thro' that unfortunate Britannia road tank, she ran out and warned the driver not to come up to the gate. When we get the electric street, rail- way in perfect running order, the' citi- zens of Clinton and adjoining towns could remain here for. the 'summer months and go to their respective work by the electric car. We. were passing the C. P. R. office, Weststreet, and we heard a gentle- man say "We use 1503. bushels Mani• toll* wheat a day, besides local wheat" and we looked up and saw that one of thein was Mr, Colborne,. grain buyer, We thought that was an item we must treasure up, so we Waited our time and very soon. we saw Mr. Colborne head - in for the s office g pat on his bicycle. We asked him who the gentleman was and' he answered very ambiguously "A miller," and although we -pride our- selves upon not asking many quest ions, we said "0 yes we know he's a miller, but he is a stranger." Then Mr. C. thought he might venture to inform us that the gentleman was Mr. Mooers'of Kingston. Happily we know little of cyclones, At Leeds, Dakota, the storm was vio- lept, doing great damage. Mrs, W. Reynolds rn writing to her mother, Mrs.A. Kirkbride,' here says: We' have had three terrible hail storms, the first I have ever seen, and all. I Byer want to see again.

We have jnet returned from seeing a family', whose house and barn were both blown .down on Friday night, 80th June.. The man and his wife and five ' littler children and the hired main were all in the frouse when the storm came on. Mrs. Walker and the children and hired man dot out, but Mr. Walker was buried in the ruins. They got hien out, but ho line not regained conecioasness, but the doctors think Inc Will recover.
