A sleigh load of our Paramount
sports took i,n the assembly in the,
.octogan hall, :Lucknow, last Wednes-
day evening: They all say they had a
good time.
We believe some of our Paramount
boys, will fake an important 'part ' in
the tug of war tournainent on the 5th,
of February. We don't expect' them
to come out last either.
A very fashionable "fandango"
came off at the house of Mr. John

Owing to a severe attack .of la

Mr. C. -Rouse received a fine stock

A large number of our enterprising

during i he past year.
The hand of,death is still in our
midst• carrying away the old and
young., Last week a report from here
recorded the .dentise of one of the old:
and 'sturdy pioneers of the township
at theripe old age of 94 years. This^
week -we haveto report the death of
Miss' ophia Kickley at the early age
of 17.years and 9 months, which •took
place on Friday morning last, after a
Iingering
, illness of some months,
whieli she bore with much patience;
and. at last passed away, firmly ex --
pressing her, assurance of • a better
inheritance and'leavino- behind her a;
bright testimony of the blessed love
of Jesus her Saviour. 'The remains
were • followed to the Dungannon
'cemetery by a large number of sym-
, pathizing friends. The Rev. R, S. G..
Anderson conducted the funeral rites
of the Presbyterian church, of which
Miss Kickley :was a member. The
sorrowing and bereaved have the
heartfelt sympathy of the entire
'community.

BRUCE COUNTY COUNCIL.

as a
manity.at his elbow. A little chap of
probably a dozen years, •with a fresh,
clean face, twinkling brown eyes, a
mouth of generous proportions and a
liberal growth of bright red hair that
was nearly hidden by a tam o' shouter
several times too .large for hien. His
dress was further remarkable by the
enormous pair of top boots which he
wore, boots that reached above his
knees, and his soles nearly an inch in
thickness.
" Will ye gie's a job?" he repeated,
for the questioned t one had been too
much amused by the peculiar appari-
tion to give an immediate answer.
44 Why, what can you do ?" asked
the city editor with a smile.
• "Ah1I 'des, what ,Ah'm tauld ta
dea," came the quick answer in the
broadest Scottish dialect.
Work for the day was over, and the
whole ,staff gathered rowed to inspect
the "rani avis" which had chanced to
fly into. the office/.
"What's, your name ?" " Where do
you come from ?" were two questions
fired at the child in 'quick suocession.
"I'vePtwa handles to ma lug. Ma
name is Wullie Stewart McLaughlin.
Ah'm fra Paisley, Renfrewshire, Scot-
land," replied the 'boy.
•"How old are you 2"
"Eleeven."
The answer earnest) promptly, and
with such a funny accent that it pro-
duced an instantaneous roar of laugh-
ter, but the little Scot never smiled.
"Oh you must be older 'than that,"
said somebody. "Hew do you know
that that is your age ?"
"I ken I was borrun in eichteen
eislity," answered Wullie, bridling at
the imputation that he didn't know
his own age, "and in eichteen-eichty-
yin I was yin, in eichteen eichty-tWa I
was was twa, and in eichteen ninety-
twa I'll be twelve."
By dint of repeated questionings the
boy told the story of his life, and a
most remarkable story it was.
He was born, he said, in Paisley,
but at an early age his father, who
kept a draper's shop, moved to Glas-
gow. Two years ago his mother and
father died, and he, to use his own ex-
pressive language, " came awa" to look
after himself. He went with a circus
for a while, where he was employed'in
'jumpin' on the cuddles" (Anglice,
"horses.")
"They tauld 'me that if I kem to
Canada I'd grow big in; a month," said
he, and then he recited how he hid
away in the cargo of the Steamship
Rover,..which left Glasgow early last
August. The day after the ship left
.port .he announced hitpself, and the
crew fed him in return for the Scotch
songs ,which he sang to them.
"Maun !" said Willie, reflectively,
• "but yon was a rough! Voyage. Twa
men were washedo'erboard, aa'it took
us eleeven day ta get ta Montreal."
The Rover, continued the boy,
brought out a cargo of horses and took
ba3k cattle. She Was lost on her
return trip and every soul on her was
drowned.
"Hew do you knaw that she WAS
lost 2" asked one of the ltsteners.
"Sure, didna' Iaread It in the Wiar-
ton Echo," replied the traveller.
• "Wiarton ! Why, how " did you get
to Wiarten 2" chorused the now
thoroughly interested audience.
This opened up a new line of ad-
venture in which the little fellow had
been the hero. He soon wearied of
Montreal, because there were too many
Frenchmen there, s he got on a train
going, he linew not where butt he fin-
ally reached Hamilton. He made his
way by singing Scotch songs to the
oondeetors. This scheme worked all
right until he struck a Dutch conduct-
or who put hien off the train because
he couldn't sing Dutch sohgs.
But he managed to make his way
pretty much all over Weatern Ontario
for he named Kincardine, Clinton,
WiArtoro, Winghatn, Lucknow, Strat-
ford, Brantford, Hamilton Harrisburg

and Guelph as places at Atoll he had Fall Wheat, per el— .00 to .85
been,. .
Vinar atritck.frorouto and so -me
newsboys bad "set hien up" in ,papers,
but he found that he could make mere
money by singing songs. Agreeable
to a many -voiced request Master Mc-
Lachlan tuned his pipes and sang
"Conlin' Thro' the Rye, "There's Nae
Luck Ahoot liseem..."„„,„fteal,4,14.
rnirliIiiriqa;e7 in really excellent
eityle..He said that his "father had
tocht him" to sing.
"DO you like this country, Willie r
he was asked.
"Ay," said he with a wise little
shake of his head. "They wunna
listen to ma songs in the auld eountry,
but they'll listen ta me here, an' gie
me the siller
PI
He suggestively chinked his trousers
pocket as hie face expanded into a huge
senile, his mouth extending across his
face, while his eyes contracted to two
narrow slits.
But, corning back to the original
proposition, ,Willie was looking for a
job and he got one. Since last Thurs-
day the has been regularly on the staif.
of the News, running messages. and at
times holding copy, for he reads
quickly and is as smart as a cricket.
He has made friends in the composing
rooni and has learned to set up his own
name, so that for the first time he has
seen his name in "preent."
On Monday he was found silently
weeping, nor would he tell the cause
for a long time. Finally it transpired
that he had had to pay back , some
money to a boy that he had borrowed
from and he had "none left to pay for
his banns, (English board) for the rest
b' the week." • •
An appeal forfunds met with a
prompt responfe, and the boy went
to the Newsboys' Home, where.he lives
satisfied.
The lad is a great lover of history,
and he talks about Randolph and his
thirty picked men. Bruce at Bannock-
burn, and William Wallace, as glibety
as the ordinary boy of his age talks
baseball. Altogether be is a great
boy, and he's going to be a great man
-
some day unless every indication is
incorrect.
