previous week and 29 during the 001Tos•
ponding week last year.
A City Then.
A movement is on foot to annex the
town plot of Brooke to the town Owen
Sound, Should the union take place Owen
Sound would then be a city of more than
11,000 inhabitants.
Sugar Factory.
The Berlin Sugar Beet Company has
purchased the plant of the Wolverine
Beet Sugar Factory at Benton Harbor,
Mich., for $350,000 and will move it to
Berlin, This is likely to be one of the
first factories iu operation iu Ontario.
Surveying.
The Manitoulin and North Shore Rail-
way staff of surveyors were in Owen
Sound this week, having completed sur-
vey of the prnpgsed line from Toberinory
to Winrton. Next week they will com-
inenoo ou the second survey from Wier -
ton Owen Sound.
Walkerton Hospital.
At a meeting of the Walkerton Town
Council held on Monday evening it was
decided to submit a by-law to the rate-
payers on Friday, April 25th for the
purpose of raising two thousand dollars
towards the erection of a hospital. The
By-law will bo carried without a doubt.
Electric Railway.
A charter has been given to Boston
capitalists to build an electric line from
Toronto to Cornwall and a line from
Brockville through Smith's Falls to Ot-
tawa, in all about 850 miles, The fund
for this purpose will be $8,000,000, and
the work will bo pushed to an early
completiou.
Warts, Versus Moles.
Are either a mark of beauty ? This
would be n suggestive topic for debating
sccities. For the information of such,
lot it he known that Putnam's Painless
Corn Extractor removes painlessly warts
in a very short time. Druggists who
sell the best always sell Putnam's Pain-
less Corn Extract.
No Evidence.
The Grits' protest against Edwin Tol-
ton M. P. for South Wellington has
been formally dismissed. Petitioner
Jelly, who had filed no particulars, had
no evidence to offer in support of the
charges originally filled at Toronto.
No other elector appeared anxious to in-
tervene, hence Mr. Tolton retains his
seat.

Age And Industry.
Mrs. Matilda Gibson, of the 5th con.
of McKillop, bas just finished a quilt
containing 2,174 pieces and 316 different
shades. She is now in her 78th year,
and besides the work mentioned, has
done several pieces of patch work and
sewed 30 pounds of carpet rags this win-
ter. This is very remarkable for a lady
of her age.
Another Blizzard.
Winnipeg, Mein., March 29.—Weather
reports from the west to -day tell of a
heavy storm which amounts almost to a
blizzard in the vicinity of Regina and
west as far as Broadview. It is stated
that about six inches of snow has fallen,
but the heavy wind has drifted it to such
an extent that big banks have been form-
ed and railway traffic has been badly af-
fected.
Profitable Sale.
Robt. Charters & Sons, of Tucker -
smith, have a thoroughbred Durham
cow, which is not thirteen years old and
has given birth to thirteen calves all of
which lived. In the lot were three pair
of twins. The old cow and her progeny
have netted her owners tho handsome
sum of 51,350 and they still have eleven
of them left. Stock raising at this rate
is certainly a profitable business.
Accidently Shot.
Drayton, March 28.—while out hunt-
ing early this morning, Harvey Haack,
a young roan about 19 years of age, ac-
cidently shot himself with a rifle. Au
unsuccessful attempt was made to find

lodged in the back. Tho patient's con-
dition to -night is quite favorable and
hopes aro entertained for his recovery,
though ho is badly wounded. He is the
oldest soil of -Mr. E.C. Haack, tile maker
of this town.
This Corned Beef.
Some 15,000 crippled and diseased
horses are slaughtered annually iu and

tution is located within a stone's throw
of the western city limits, and to gather
a supply of diseased and decrepit ani-
mals, receiving stations have been estab-
lished in all sections of the city, and all
kinds of diseased and worn out animals
are purchased.

which is used for bathing and massage
purposes at this estableshlnent, was dis-
covered years ago, and has been the
means of attracting hundreds ofithe best
class of people from the south to enjoy

Considerably denser than sea water, the

and skillfully applied cures rheumatism,

On the Question of the Referendum,
Canadian Baptist says:—"The question
remains, why, at this late date, are the
conditions made so hard? Why are the
people not allowed to cast their votes on
the day of the municipal elections, un-
der the shelter of a secret ballot? Why
are the anti -prohibitionists not required
to come out from ruder cover, and show
what is the size of the -vote they eau
poll? It is because it is suspected that
the prohibitionists who have so immense
a majority of the votes cast, although
less than the number of votes now de-
manded, that it world be seen to be an
outrage against all democratic goVern•
ment to declare the bill defeated, and
let a small minority rule? Are the con-
ditions of the vote made so hard in order
to coucilliate the rum power, and sweep
the troublesome question of prohibition
off the political board?"
"Prohibitionists who have been treat-
ed with distinguished consideration, and
whose votes have been gladly accepted
ou the basis of the promises given, may
well feel indignant, now that tho time
for fulfillment has come, that the terms
upon which the pledges were given have
been repudiated, and they aro asked to
roll up au immense additional vote, and
do it under conditions which make suc-
cess well nigh, if not altogether impos-
sible."
"But still tho question is, are the con-
ditions so hard that the attempt to meet
them would court defeat ? If so, what?
Prohibitionists need to have a policy,
aucl to unite upon it. Ono thing 0001315
certain. They must, in some way:teach
politicians the lesson that they must be
reckoned with at the polls, if they are
not still to be treated cavalierly, if not
with contempt when the time for pro-
mise is past and that for action has come.
We are not in party politics. But we
are, heart and soul, in the attempt to
come to the rescue of the victims of the
rum traffic ; and we feel deeply when n
matter, involving so much, is treated in
a trifling, politic way, rather than with
statesmanship."

Legal suasion for the drunkard maker.
Prison suasion for the statute breaker.

On the Question of the Referendum,
Canadian Baptist says:—"The question
remains, why, at this late date, are the
conditions made so hard? Why are the
people not allowed to cast their votes on
the day of the municipal elections, un-
der the shelter of a secret ballot? Why
are the anti -prohibitionists not required
to come out from ruder cover, and show
what is the size of the -vote they eau
poll? It is because it is suspected that
the prohibitionists who have so immense
a majority of the votes cast, although
less than the number of votes now de-
manded, that it world be seen to be an
outrage against all democratic goVern•
ment to declare the bill defeated, and
let a small minority rule? Are the con-
ditions of the vote made so hard in order
to coucilliate the rum power, and sweep
the troublesome question of prohibition
off the political board?"
"Prohibitionists who have been treat-
ed with distinguished consideration, and
whose votes have been gladly accepted
ou the basis of the promises given, may
well feel indignant, now that tho time
for fulfillment has come, that the terms
upon which the pledges were given have
been repudiated, and they aro asked to
roll up au immense additional vote, and
do it under conditions which make suc-
cess well nigh, if not altogether impos-
sible."
"But still tho question is, are the con-
ditions so hard that the attempt to meet
them would court defeat ? If so, what?
Prohibitionists need to have a policy,
aucl to unite upon it. Ono thing 0001315
certain. They must, in some way:teach
politicians the lesson that they must be
reckoned with at the polls, if they are
not still to be treated cavalierly, if not
with contempt when the time for pro-
mise is past and that for action has come.
We are not in party politics. But we
are, heart and soul, in the attempt to
come to the rescue of the victims of the
rum traffic ; and we feel deeply when n
matter, involving so much, is treated in
a trifling, politic way, rather than with
statesmanship."
