Monday evening, pies eaover by Rev.

nection with the church. A committee
was appointed to draft a constitution to

was unanimously elected President and
the other officers are to be elected at the

DRY•, DRIED) DRIEST.—In this irnmedi-
ate neighborhood therehas scarcely been
a drop 'of rain for about one month
and, as a consequence everything is rued
and parched .to an alarming condition. In
town the several streams which- usually
run all summer,, are completely dried up,
yellsand cisterns all over have gone dry,
some one more fortunate .than others in
Navin:; a good well, supplying the neigh-
borhood for a quarfer of a mile arotind.
Pastures have "gone dry" entirely, •and
many farmers lire put to great inconveni-
ence in supplying their cattle with water.
Unless rain comes very soon, the matter
will be a serious one, as the ampunt of
TuEnu was not a single appeal against
the printed voters list of Oluton this year.

•ACCIDENT. --Of Tuesday, BoneyCamp-
bell met with an unpleasant, though for-
tunately. not serious, accident. He had
been using a hatchet to drive nails in the
wall, and laid it down on top of a high
stepladder.
Stooping downwn shortly
after
to ove the ladder, h
forgot the hatchet,
which fell on his head, the point making
a nasty cut in his skald.
Mit. KERB, wishes us to say that in, re-
ference to the horse case mentioned last
week, the beta referred to had no connec-
tion whatever with the price of the horse,.
other than that be told Rouse, after the
price bad been agreed upon, that he would
throw hint in a pair of boots sooner than
have any trouble with him. He also
states that Rouse was not heard before
the Judge at all, and he did not consent
to the horse being taken back.
KILLEDON THE RAILWAY.-- Every-
body in town knew "Ogle Cooper's don-

was a day that be remembered for.;a
long time to come, and within the recol-
lection of any living here, •nothing like it
was ewer before experienced. At about 1;•
o'clock p. m., the air assumed a peculiar
bright bue, the reflection of which: on the
windows was a bright blue. . By two
,o'clock the Air was .very heavy and'soon.
after it became necessary to light lamps
owing to the extreme and unusual dark-
ness,' the sky to the. west and north, being
a deep and.impenetr`able purple:.. To the
south'the sky presented a "inagnificent'ap-
pearatice,.looking'as if an immense fire
were burning all aroltiid in that direction.
Later in the afternoon, patches' of •bright
red appeared at. different . places in ' the
heavens, the whole sky being. lighted up
thereby and a strong smell of burning
soot filling tile. ' air, Business was at, a
stand still inthe town, and several of the
manufacturing establishments had to shut
down, owing to the: darkness, which was.
as great all the afternoon as is usual late
in the evening..' In several parts' of the.
town whole families engaged in devotion=
al services -all afternoon•uuder the impres-
sion that the end of the world was ap-
proaching.... The cause of the phenomena
was undoubtedly:: an accumulation of
smoke from thenumerous bush. fires' that
have : been raging -i'n.. Michigan and
throughout the country. That it'was from
this eguse is shown from the fact.:that the
darkness commenced before noon at Gode-
rich, the direction fromwhence the smoke
came. Tlie_ darkness was. experienced
nearly every place in western Ontario.

Coin= EoxoE$.—At the'-cottncii
meeting on Monday evening, there was
only a hare•quorum ppresent; some•of the
Councillors apparently not being aware of
the fact that the proceedings should com-
mence at half - past " seven o'clock. -The
appointment of a night-watchman, al
though temporary, will be approved -of by
the people. Some. discussion took place
in referenee to contractors clocking up all
the' •sidewalk while building, without
erecting a temporary walk outside of their
material, as the by-law sti.pulatee.i,;aev eral
of the council. were : right in expressing
disapproval;of the same, but it would have
been much better, when the egi1 existed
worse than it does at present, to see that
,the by -lay was enforced. Verbal refer-
ence was made by the Chairman of the
Health Committee, and the Chairman of -
the
f -the. Street Committee, to the condition of
the drain running from near the Post Of-
fice, and which has for years been an -
abominable nuisance, and it wag uiider-
stood that the same be properly and thor:
oughly fixed at once. We hope that agood
job will be made of it, as the people• are
becoming tired°of the con ti n tied references
to the same. While we believe the mover
and seconder of'lhe motion in reference to
the grunt of $O to Mr. J. L, Sheppard,
were guided by "the besttof motive, we
cannot look upon the request ofi1r.Sliep-
