NEWSY NOTES OP TRAVEL,
Mr. T. hl. Brandon lett last week for
Montreal and the General Conferenee
of ten* Methodist Church, He has
kindly sant the Advance the following
nates+ of his trip :
J left Wingham. on Monday, Sept.
17tH. for Montreal. By arrangement,
in Toronto I met my brother, Rev. W.
J. Brandon, of Port Colborne, On
Tltesday afternoon we took ship on
"The Toronto,," one of the elegant
vessels of the R. & 0. Navigation Co.
She is 280 ft, long and over 60 ft. wide.
An agreeable company of about one
hundred formed the ship's passengers.
Our first stop was at Charlotte, N. Y.,
a small town near the mouth of the
Genesee river, seven miles from Roch-
ester and 95 miles from Toronto. Here
the boat stopped to coal up and take
on a few more passengers, Then we
struck out for Kingston, our next
stopping place, which we reacher' at
five o'clock the next morning, 90 miles
from Charlotte. Only a few minutes
were taken up in taking on a little
baggage and some travellers, who
were early enough to catch the boat.
It was not long before every passen-
ger on board was up and busy making
preparations for the beautiful sights,
which lay ahead of them, as they
sailed into and down the majestic
river, the St. Lawrence, The Thous-
and Islands were the first objects of
interest. These islands are said to
number 1692, and extend all the way
from Kingston to Brockville, or for
five miles. From the deck of the To-
ronto, the passengers had a glorious
opportunity of viewing the ever-
changing attractions of this wonder-
ful natural panorama. Many of the
islands are owned by wealthy people,
and they have built upon them mag-
nificent residences ; some of them ap-
pear like paradises of beauty, because
of the rich and profuse display of
shrubs, plants and flowers, and some
of then stand so near the water's
edge that a man might almost stay in
bed and catch enough fish for his
morning meal. Clayton, N. Y., is the
first call after leaving Kingston ; it is
25 miles down the river, the terminus
of the N. Y. C. R. R. and the head-
quarters of many anglers. Three
miles still east on Round Island • lies
Frontenac, N. Y., a summer resort,
where one of the largest and finest
hotels, perhaps on the continent, is
situated. Next comes Wellesley island
the home of Thousand Island Park,
which boasts of a summer population
of 7,000 people. Alexandria Bay, 163
miles from Montreal, is the last Ameri-
can port at which our steamer called.
On many of those islands we saw
notices up, "For Sale," so if any of
your Wingham friends desire a sum-
mer home where they will be sure
to be unmolested by their neighbor's
chickens, and where even the buzzing
and bothersome mosquito will not
make a bold attack to drink up some
of their precious life blood, and where
they can sleep and rest as long as they
like, I think on some one of these
many and picturesque islands they
might find what they desire in this
respect. Brockville was our next
stop, a flourishing and picturesque
town. Here Rev. S. Sellery, formerly
of Wingham, is pastor of the Metho-
dist Church. At Prescott, 12 miles
down the river from Brockville, we
were transferred from the Toronto to
the "Brockville," one of the river
steamers, and every person on board
felt before long that we had made a
bad trade, as the Brockville was a
much slower vessel and not so well
equipped. But it was a trade in which
we had no say but only to submit.
Our disappointment on that point,
however, was compensated by the
hope of being soon in the excitement
of the Rapids. The first of these are
called the "Galops," then came the
"Long Sault Rapids," the "Coteau,"
the "Cedar," the "Split Rock Rapids,"
the "Cascade," and finally the "Lach-
ine," said to be the most exciting of
the chain, with a fall of 45 feet. We
were not privileged to run the last, as
our boat failed to reach Lachine in
time to get through before dark, and
so we were transferred to the G. T. R.
train at Lachine, 8 miles froin Mon-
treal, and we were then soon in the
city, whore we were fortunate in
meeting kind friends who took us in
and cared for us in good shape.

ed, the appearance of which makes
one feel like going west, Then flown
among the stables for awhile. Here
we saw King Edward's horses, and
fine animals they were. I hear some
Yankee has been trying to buy them.
Here they had the finest collection of
horses and cattle ever shown at To-
ronto, at least so the knowing ones
said ; to ns they did not look any dif-
ferent to what we had seen there be-
fore, but of course they must be im-
proving. We aro improving along
every line, and why not in the line of
live stock? There was one feature
that struck me favorably, and that
was you might wander all day among
those exhibition buildings and not run
across a single fakir with his big horn
and his 5c show. These are all put
down in one corner in a double row,
and are called the midway. Here was
a huge structure like a barn frame
without the rafters, called the figure 8,
You get into a car and are hauled up
to the top by an endless chain, which
starts you careering along a track on
which are endless shops, which makes
you feel as though the earth had fallen
away front you, then up an incline,
then clown another precipice, and so
on till you form the figure 8 twice and
conte flying in at the bottom, out of
breath and with a scared look in your
eye. Then the grand stand perform-
ance. The performing lions were
good, but looked di><ngerous; the per-
forming elephants were just fine -ima-
gine an elephant turning a somersault,
firing a gun, turning barber and shav-
ing a customer, viz., another elephant.
There were the usual acrobats, wire
walkers, etc. Then Ivanhoe, in the
course of which a tournament was
given, in which mailed knights charg-
ed each other with the lance; the fire-
works were grand. flutist not forget
to mention the Roman chariot race
with fiery chariots; it was wild. There
wore also many other features, which
tune and space forbid me to mention.
But I would like to ask, what does
this great fair mean, what is it for?
Is the country at Largo materially
benefitted by it? No doubt Toronto
is ; 750,000 passed through those gates
this year, and most likely they all left
some substantial evidence of their
presence. It seems to ane that the
coun try's holiday is Toronto's hay -day,
but then I am only a pessimist ; no
doubt the fair is useful, or why should
it prosper so? In a room in front of
the city hall we found the Misses
Mountcastle of Clinton, and the pic-
tures which lined the walls were all
their work. We noticed one which
was Victoria street, Wingham, over
20 years ago, showing the sweep of the
river down by the tannery and Salt
block. Toronto has a nice little "Zoo"
at Riverdale Park, which it is worth
the visitors' while to see. The most
interesting object there, to me, was a
big Polar bear, snow white, and sav-
age looking. They have also a genu-
ine Buffalo bull, cow and calf, a lion,
lioness and three cubs, etc., etc.
EXHIBITION NOTES (continued from
last week). -Now for the exhibition,
this has vastly improved during re-
cent years. The old wooden struc-
tures are fast giving place to substan-
tial buildings of brick, stone and ce-
ment. What used to be the main
building is now the transportation
building. In it you can see every kind
of conveyance from a go-cart to a
hearse, including the ambulance. In
the process building you can see al-
most anything in process of manufac-
ture. Here are knitting machines,
turning out hose by the dozen, and
seamless underwear by the crate.
Here is a machine making envelopes,
something like 700 or 800 a minute.
There is a printing press in full swing,
also a linotype machine setting type,
while the operator plays a tune on the
key -board. There are looms galore,
weaving all kinds of plain and figured
fabrics, also the wire mesh for spring
mattresses. Here they are making
molasses candy, and there they are
baking bread, which is mixed by ma-
chinery, moulded by machinery, baked
by machinery and almost eaten by
machinery, while yonder they are bak-
ing all kinds of confections. Then
you come across a fellow selling whet-
stones. He will take a piece of an old
scythe and rub the edge on a horse-
shoe, then give it three or four rubs
with his whetstone, and it will cut a
hair. Then you come to a fellow who
is making a light which is so strong
that it will cast a shadow at noonday,
and so forth ad infinitum. Manufac-
turers' building is a thing of beauty
and a joy forever, both inside and out.
The artistic display of manufactured
articles defies description, but we must
tell of the wonderful new talking ma-
chine, the only one of its kind in Can-
ada they say. They had records of
the greatest singers of the day, and
people who have heard those singers
in the flesh say that the tone is per-
fectly natural -Madame Patti for in-
stance. I have since read in the Mail -
Empire that "Kit," who has heard
her, at once recognized her voice. I
might add that I saw Huron ranges
there, and so far as I could tell they
compared favorably with anything in
the show in the stove line, The dairy
building is an interesting place for the
dairy farmer to visit ; there is an en-
gine making ice, keeping the whole
exhibit of cheese and butter nice and
cool. There is a sort of an amphi-
theatre attached, in the centre of
which contests in butter making were
held. We watched one contest be-
tween two boys, one man and a lady.
The youngest boy was through first,
the lady second and the poor man was
last. They had to churn, wash, salt,
mix, and print in pound prints and
wrap in parchment paper, wash up
their utensils and clean their portion
of the floor. There were about eight
pounds in each churning. The art
gallery next took our attention. Here
we saw the pictures sent ftrom the Old
Country -from Kensington, from Lon-
don City, from Liverpool, etc„ and
also several loaned by His Excellency
the Governor-General. Then out on
the band stand is the 2nd Life Guards
Band, discoursing the sweetest music.
They are a fine looking lot of fellows,
'well dressed, and their music is ed.
dently appreciated, for there is scarce-
ly' standing room all around the stand
as far as the sound of the musio will
reach. The C. P. R. had a building to
themselves, in which was a beautiful
display of the products of the far west
most artistically arranged, arches of
oats, arches of wheat, festoons of
grasses, grain in tha shod and thresh.
