Stuart was literally i paled. on the shaft. He was remoyed to D Matures's office, where it was found 1 had sustained a painful puncture on t e thigh, the end of the shaft baying penot ated the leg several inches, tearing the lies The injured man was subsequently rem .ved to the hospital, where he received cares ul attention.

Tin Woor, TsAin The wool season is rapidly drawing nee , but owing to the Spanish trouble and probable disturbance of the money marke , no values are giyen. The recent heavy d ty on Canadian wool going tette the Uni ed States, renders it necessary for forme s to exorcise the great- est care in preparing their wool for market. All wool should be ashed well on sheep's back, as none other .it wool thus washed can be exported, areners will do well to govern themselve 'accordingly.
