He was whirled around a shaft going 300 revolutions to the minute. The engine was quickly stopped, and the boy escaped With a broken arm and a terrible shock. -Messrs, Ogg and Zinkan of Strat- ford have agreed to take over Walk- erton Biscuit factory and operate it for a term of five years at the nominal rental of $150 for the first year and $75 a year for the remaining four years, with the right to purchase the concern at the end of that time for the sum of $1,500, This factory cost in the first place over $10,000 and is unequipped with machinery, -The by-law submitted on Satur- day in Goderich to guarantee the bonus of the Maitland River Power Company, to the extent of $150,000, was defeated at the polls, the vote for it being 801, and 351 against. This means, according to the statement of Mr. Meyes, that so far as he and his friends are concerned, there will be no development of power from the River Maitland, and no building of electric railways in Huron county. -The Goderich Horticultural Socie- ty is arranging to make a County of Huron exhibit at the Provincial Ex- hibition in Toronto. The County Council at their sessions last month voted $75 towards the expense of making such exhibit, and at a meeting recently the directors of the Horticul- tural Society decided to communicate with the various agricultural societies In the county and make arrangements or special prizes in the various classes of fruit in order to bring out the best specimens to be had. These will be forwarded to Goderich and a selection made from them for the exhibit to be sent to Toronto, When Long Breaths Hurt. You know that troubles exist which need quick attention.

Walker, who last fall lost his barn by Bre) raised the frame of a large now barn on Tuesday afternoon. The main barn is 00x45 feet and there is a straw house 45x25, The framer was Jack Cassidy. The charge of selling liquor against Anthony of Ambleside was heard here on Thursday afternoon and re- sulted in a conviction being secured against the former Ambleside hotel - keeper for $50 and costs, in all amounting to $58 for selling liquor without a license, Mr. Wm. McDonald, 0th line,, who had his fall wheat threshed on Tues- day, says that the turn -out was much better than he expected. He did not consider his crop particularly good as it was partly on low land, yet it threshed about 40 bus, to the acre. The sample is good, there being very few shrunken grains. The services in Knox Church were conducted last Sunday, and will be taken again next Sunday by the Rev. J. B. Mullan, of Fergus, one of the grand old men of the Presbyterian Church in Ontario. On the 7th of last month Mr. Mullan preached his fare- well sermons in St. Andrew's Church, Fergus, after an incumbency of thirty- six years --thirty-six happy , years he says himself -thirty-six years of use- fulness and influence for good his late parishioners say.

R. will soon have spent $7,000,000 this year for Coaches and Engines, Montreal, July 24. -With the daily delivery of engines, passenger coaches and freight cars, the Grand Trunk Railway is rapidly approaching the day when the last of nearly $7,000,000 worth of rolling stock will have been received by them during the present year. There were in all about sixty passenger coaches ordered, costing about $12,000 each, laid down in Mon- treal, which makes a total of $720,000. Thirty of these have already been de- livered. There were 100 engines ordered, and of these sixty have been received. The average cost is $15,000 each, or an aggregate of $1,500,000. The tremendous increase in freight traffic may be imagined by the de- livery of 4,500 up-to-date cars. The order was for 5,200, and the average cost is $850 each, so that the great sum of $4,420,000 is being spent for freight cars alone. With the daily delivery of many of these the G. T. R. people are hoping to get well on the way to lift the present congestion. - (Toronto News, July 24, 1907. Clinton, The Horticultural Society purpose holding a Flower Show in the Town Hall, Clinton, on some date next month, Mr, D. E. Munro, the well known merchant and postmaster of Auburn is in the hospital here, and yesterday underwent an operation for the re- moval of a cancer from his side. His many friends will be pleased to know that no serious results are anti- cipated, Mr. J. B. Cantelon and J. E, Hovey were in Toronto this week taking part in the Stanley Gun club tournament held on Aug. 7, 8 and 9th, Mr. Hovey has been doing specially well in his practice shoots in town, having lost only 8 of 225 targets shot at. After several weeks of persistent ef- fort to raise the tubing and tools in the Stapleton Salt well, Mr. Bevans, has been compelled to give it up as a bad job. Every device known to the well -drillers art for such purposes was resorted to, but without avail, as both tubing and tools were so tightly wedged that it was not possible to get any hold on them and raise them. The estimates that will he submitted to the Town Council to -night, call for a total of $18,000; last year the amount was $17,821, The increase is due to the extra amount required for the schools and public library, the former receiving $1,000 more than last year, and the latter $150. This will call for a rate of 21 mills on the dollar, one mill more than last year. Last Friday morning Mr. and Mrs. W. R. Lough left town en route for Vancouver, where they expect to re- side in future. As Principal of Clin- ton Public School for 20 years, it had been Mr. Lough's custom to ring the school bell every morning to sum- mon the scholars, and on Thursday afternoon he could not resist the temptation to go over to the school and ring the bell for the last time. It did not matter that there were no school children around. There was a sentiment in it, and a meaning to Mr. Lough that no one else could ap- preciate, LOCAL SALESMAN WANTED FOR WINGHA]yf and adjoining country to represent "Canada's Greatest Nurseries."
