Woodstock Sept, 8.—A well -digger
named John McGahan, whose home is
in the neighborhood of Strathallan,
was entombed in a 30 -foot well here
yesterday afternoon, and has not yet
been got out. It is thought that he is
dead, Ile was middle-aged and had a
large family,
Fruit men in the vicinity of Owex;
Sound say :—"The apple crop of the
present season is the best since the
summer of 1806. Especially those
who have cultivated their orchards
find the results most gratifying. The'
apple crops in England, France and
Germany are unusually large, there-
fore Canada's crop will be used largely
for home consumption,"
—While drilling on the farm of Jno.
Wilson, Proton, near Kingscote, Geo.
Beamish struck a flowing well of pure,,
sparkling water at the depth of forty
feet, after penetrating several feet of
solid rock. There is a volume of
water to the extent of about forty bar-
rels a day coming up, and a ditch had
to be dug to a creek near by to keep
it from irrigating the whole farm.
—The farmers in Huron county who
subscribed stock for the Huron Pack-
ing and Cold Storage Co. were sur-
prised to receive a call for six per
cent., as many of them had been made
to believe if the company did not float
a call would not be made, nor did they
see the copy of the agreement. The
farmers will keep out of stock -taking
and go more in for live stock in
future.
—The Lindsay Watchman -Warder
says that a bull recently got upon the
railway tracks near Dunsford, and
started for the sectionmen. The lat-
ter escaped by climbing telegraph
poles. Then a train came along, and
when the engine whistled for the bull
to get off the earth the latter prompt-
ly accepted the blast as a challenge,
and with its head down and tail up,
boldly charged the enemy. The beast
managed to put two cars off the
track, but the impact was sufficient to
smash his own skull, and end a brave
career.

Mr. Henry Weddows, who bas been
a respected resident of Lucknow for
some four years, died at his home' on
Havelock street on Tuesday morning
after several months of great suffering
from cancer in the throat and neck.
Deceased was a bard working and in-
dustrious man,

The sudden death of Wm. Stothers,
Clerk of the Township of Ashfield, on
Sunday last, has cast a gloom of sor-
row over the whole community, Mr,
Stothers was apparently in his usual
health and after doing up the morn-
ing chores about the stable, was pre-
paring to go to church. He laid. down
on the sofa, while Mrs. Stothers was
getting on her hat, but had only been
there a few minutes when he called
his wife, and as she came to him he
exclaimed "Mary I am dying" and in a
few moments his spirit passed away.
Mr. Stothers was one of the best
known and most respected citizens of
the township and his death will be a
great loss to the section. He was
prominently identified with the muni-
cipal affairs of the township for many
years, as Reeve and Councillor, and at
the time of his death was clerk of the
municipality. He was an earnest and
consistent member of the Methodist
Church and nowhere, outside of his
own family, will kis noble life and un-
selfish devotion to duty be more keen-
ly missed than on the Blake appoint-
ment of which he was a faithful class -
leader, superintendent of the Sunday
School, and Recording Secretary of
the official board. Mr. Stothers was
in his fifty-eighth year.

—The C.P.R. have added five new
steel wing snow ploughs to the equip-
ment on this division in order to be
prepared for a possible repetition of
last winter's storms. The curves at
Laurel and near Flesherton will also
probably be straightened out and
heavier rails substituted. The traffic
this year has been the heaviest yet.
It is rumored that radical changes in
Ontario lines are contemplated as a
result of the issue of $25,000,000 new
stock. A rumored project is the ex-
tension of the Teeswater line to Kin-
cardine, its natural terminus.
—John Jacob Astor, cousin of Wm.
'Waldorf Astor, is the Monte Cristo of
real estate owners. He owns nearly
$100,000,000 worth of buildings alone.
in the United States, chiefly in the
form of ten huge hotels, twenty sky -
scraping office and apartment build-
ings, and fifty blocks of dwellings and
flats in the heart of New York.
These structures are occupied by 80,-
000 tenants. Thus Astor, unquestion-
ably the greatest landlord on this
plccnet, owns a city within a city—a
city with a population equal to that
part of the City of London, Eng.,
'within municipal limits.
—A leading apple buyer in Southern
Ontario, iu the Colborne district re-
ports thus :—Jas. Thomas has sold an
'orchard of about eight or ten acres for
$1,125, and John Usher, one of about
the same acreage for $750. Tho varie-
ties in these orchards are mostly
Spies, Baldwins, Russets, with a few
Kings. Wilbert Winters of Wicklow
has sold one of six or eight acres of
the same varieties for $750, and Jas.
Forster about seven acres for $700.
One of the best sales in the Colborne
district was made by Jas. Davis, who
secured $1,000 for a crop of ubqut foul+
acres, nearly all Hen Davis, with
a few Baldwins. Where purchases
have been made by the barrel, winter
stook has been bought mostly at 75c.
with the even dollar iu a few cases,
and 500. for fall fruit,

Mr. Robt. McLean left yesterday on
a business trip to the Coast. He may
return with either cattle or horses, or

The steamer Wexford, from Fort
William, with 108,000 bushels of
wheat for the Goderich elevator, ar-
rived in port on .Sunday evening, and
commenced unloading at 7 a. in. on
Monday.
Two more steam shovels, one of
thein weighing about seventy tons,
and six "donkey" railway engines and
a lot of cars are expected to arrive this
week, and they will go down the hill
and across the river the same as the
first steam shovel.
Ashfield township has issued a writ
against the comity for damages alleg-
ed to have been sustained by a wash-
out at Port Albert which is said to
have cost the township $500. War-
den Bowman came down from the
north yesterday to enter a defence.
So far this season thirteen vessels
have been unloaded at the Goderich
elevator, and as they delivered 1,314,-
000 bushels of wheat, the average per
vessel was over 101,000 bushels, very
good freights all will admit. To move
this quantity to eastern points requir-
ed 1,31.4 one thousand bushel cars, or
about 2,000 of six hundred and sixty
bushel capacity.

are always quickly cured by Nerviline
