Miss Ada Mills, daughter of Mrs. Mills, of the 2nd con. of West Wawa - nosh, and Mr. Logan, Blyth, passed under the matrimonial yoke last Wednesday. We believe that it is their intention to make the North- west their future home. Mr. Robt. Wilson, of Prosperity, a young man 22 years of age, and who has been a resident of this township for the past three years, committed suicide by drowning himself in the Maitland river on Tuesday night of last week. Mr. Wilson had been to a social in Dungannon on the evening of his rash act and it is reported that his actions there were of a rather peculiar order, but nothing serious was antici- pated. He returned to his home about 11 o'clock, and saying that he had to lock the dog in the barn, went out, and apparently made straight for the river. His brother, missing him, went to see what was the cause of his delay, and traced him to Mr. Win. Sheckleton's store, and being joined by Mr. Sheckleton followed the tracks to the river, but not until the next morning was his body discovered. He was a young man of good habits and a church worker, and the cause of his suicide is a mystery to all. He was buried on Friday afternoon. Salem. Owing to the storm of Thursday evening last, there was no League meeting at this place. Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Kitchen visited at the home of their daughter, Mrs, %Vmn. Gallaher of Forchvich. fret/.

Andrew Miller, sen., who died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Jas. Underwood. The friends of the late Dr. Smote, sen., of Wroxeter, wore surprised to linear of his very sudden death on Tues- day. The sympathy of all is with his family in this their hour of sad trial. Surely in the Midst of life we aro in tli4rth. Jamestown. Miss Lizzie Eckmier of Ethel is stay- ing this week with her uncle, George Eckmier. Jas. Simpson, Jr., has started as ap- prentice blacksmith with Geo. Eck- mier. He should fill the bill all right.

Will, McDonald is at present stay- ing with his brother-in-law, Joe Shaw, Oth of Grey, who got his hand very badly cut in a circular saw last week. We are very sorry indeed to learn that Mrs. Geo.

It is reported that one of our former Jamestown boys in the person of Lorne McKelvey, weds Miss Clara Morley of New Hamburg on Wednes- day of this week. We extend our heartiest congratulations and wish them "bon voyage" over the sea of life. Mr. Carr of Wroxeter gave a splen- did address last Sunday evening from the text—"Fear not, little flock, for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom." Mr. Carr had sus- tained some injuries in an accident which he happened to be in on Sunday afternoon, and was very unfit to take the service, but rather than disappoint the people he came and preached. We feel very grateful to Mr. Carr for he certainly was not looking to his in- terests but to that of others. Blyth. Mrs. Robt. Hughes died suddeuly in Blyth on Monday evening last. Messrs, A.

Me. Alex. Montgomery, lately of Turnberry, met with a bad accident by falling off the sidewalk in Gorrie last Thursday night and breaking one of his legs, This will lay him up for a considerable time, which is to be re- gretted, as he was to leave last Friday for the Northwest, where he proposed going into the real estate business.

MicKinuon and Mrs, Oliver, Winnipeg. 11 is stated on good. authority that the Salt Works in Brussels will be put in operation. With as fine a quality and so abundant in goautity it is too bad that the works here should not be run with the old time vigor. Public School Boards having an in- terest in tate Continuation class work ought to seem a delegate to the Educa- tional Association. which meets in To- ronto next week.

From the evidence before the magistrate, it was shown that Reid had taken the ring from the . residence of Jno. Smith, 8th con. of Grey, and traded it to Mr, Jackson, stating he had bought it but it was not the right size. He afterwards asked for the return of the jewelry and disposed of it to Mr. Broadfoot for 20 cents. The coon mitts, taken from Jas. Cardiff's residence, on the same concession, he sold to Harry Duncan for $1. Ten witnesses went from this vicinity.
