Lightning Pranks, Mr. Chas. Ellah, who lives on the entre gravel road, Downie township, as struck by lightning during the hunderstorm early Tuesday morning, f last week, and -painfully injured. He as severely burned on the body and gs• and partially paralkzed for a time. Te is, however, recovering from the npleasant experience. Mr. Ellah was wakened by the heavy thunder and as dressing in his room when he was truck. Lightning struck the china- ey on his house and almost dernolish- d it and came down the stove pipe to the rooms. The floor in the kitch- n was splintered somewhat but the uilding was not set afire. Mr. Ellah LIS in the room at the opposite side f the house, and how the lightning ached him is a mystery. His bed - one window was open and it is ought that pare of the belt which ruck the chimney may have been de- ected and entered the window at the tber side of the house. At all events e was struck. His clothing WAS in laces rent and torn or scorched and is legs were severely bnrned. The glatning seems to have visited every orn in the dwelling. Some plaster ras knocked off the ceiling of the °in in which the children slept and e furnituve in other rooms was dis- aced. None of the family however, stained any injury except Mr. Ellen. W. C. T. U. Notes. The London Confereuce of the Meth- ist church, which convened recently London took strong ground on the overument Control issue. Mr. C. B. eenleyside, of London, Secretary of e Temperance Committee,submitted s report which embodied the fellow : - g resolution: "As liquor sellingis rong for the individual it is equally rong for the State, and as Govern- ent Control has proven a failure as temperance measure, leading to in - eased consumption and increased ime, and as it becomes so buttressed politics, that there is no 'dislodging , therefore this Conference hereby clares itself wholly and always op - tied to any 'measure of Government ntrol which would include sale for verage purpcses." Mr. McLaree's uti-Cigarette bill has passed its see- d reading in the Commons, and al- so passed through committee of the whole. It provides for the prohibition of the manufacture, importation and sale of the cigarettes. The bill was of course satisfactory to the W.C.T.U. and every one else who desired to see the evil effectively dealt with. .Mr. Gervais' amendment, praetically iaega- tivesit cotnpletely. •It proposes to itl• ter the title of Mr. McLaren's bill, tied to strike out every one of its clauses substituting for the prohibition f manufacture, importation and sale, the forbidding of the sale of cigarettes to persons under sixteen years of age. The situation is one of grave danger and it behooves those who have the matter at heart to bestir themselves to prevent the prevailing of this amend- ment. We advise each of our readers baying e vote to write his representa- tive in the Commons plainly telling him that Mr. Gervais' amendment can- not be accepted as int any sense meet- ing the requirements of the case.

London, July • 19,-(C.A..F.)-J. Henniker Heaton, M.P. (Coaserva- tire), asked the War Secretary yes- terday whether the name of Lord Dundonald was on the active list of the War Department, whether his ser- vices had been dispensed with by the Canadian. Government, whether •it had come to the knowledge of the War Odle° that Lord Dundonald had been making inflammatory speeches in Canada against the G overnrnent of Canada, and that at meetings largely attended by the Opposition he had been cheered and hooted by the various parties. The Speaker in- tervened and said: "1 hoe the ques- tion *ill not continue in the same tone, because those controversial ex- pressions are not admissable. (Hear, hear.) Mr, Heaton continuing, ask- ed whether the War Secretary • had been warned that the action of Lord Dundonald might be resented and might greatly endanger the loyal and kindly feeling now exieting be- tween Canada and Great Britain. W. Brouiley-DavenPort, financial • secretary to the War Oflice, replied: PI think the honorable member will see that these are questions which the Secretary of State cannot pro- perly answer without full notice.' (Hear, hear.) • To Call Handmaid Home. The Daily Mail says the sooner tho War Office and the British Govern- ment turn their attention to the do- • ings and sayings of Lord Dundonald, the better it will be for both the Mo- therland and Canada. Lord Dundon- ald has embarked upon what, looks perilously like a political. campaign against the Canadian Government and has appealed to the Opposition like the merest demagogue. It is no part of the duty of an Imperial °m- ew ;to cause friction between Eng- land and Canada, and a soldier who does so serves the larger interests of the Enapire most indifferently. ' • Risk of Imperial Crisis. The Daily News asks: "Are we to • have the risk of an Imperial crisis raised over that trumpery quarrel in which Lord Dundonald has not the shadow of a case. The threatened meeting at Montreal should be 'em- phatically vetoed. It is high time the British Government, which closures Parliament, closured this indiscreet bearer of a. great name and assured the Canadians that England disas- sociates itself from this fire-eating general." Controversial. .London, 19. -Henniker Heat- on, M.P., in the House of Commons, desired to ask the Secretary • of State for War a question re Dundon- ald, but the speaker said it was.too controversial to be admissible. • No Difficulties Raised. London, July 19.-(0.A.P.)-Prem- ier Balfour, repliying to T. Gibson Bowles, M.P., (Conservative), said the Newfoundland Government • had raised no difficulties •'affecting the rights conceded to the .French in con- nection with the local regulations for bait fishing and the concurrence of the Newfoundland Government had been obtained during the negotia- tions. Child Killed Outright. Hamilton, July•19.-Yesterday morning shortly after 9 o'clock there was a distressing accident at the corner .01 King streetand East av- enue, where a street car crashed into a buggy containing Mrs. George Schuler, Union • Park; her daughter, Mrs. Herman Myers, and her Arend- I y 'daughter, Bertha Myers, aged fourears. The three occupants of the rig were thrown under the car wheels. The child was killed out- right, Mrs. Myers was seriously in- jured and Mrs. Schuler was painfully bruised. An inquest will be held this evening. They Are at Liberty.

Taking my bearing from the end of the Concession of the Townline be- tween Stephen and McGillivray and using stone moniarnent at corner at Shipka, stitke on soutfi side of road at blind line, between Concessions 13 and 14 and post at south-west corner at Con. road 14 and 15, all of which I found to be practicably in alignment, I ran a random line northward along Con. road 14-15 to the side -road, and thence eastward turning off angle to same hearing as Town Line o -n an off- set of 60 links northward from the true line of the North and South sides of the roads thronghout. I found that present road is graded itelittle to tbe North of true line at rear end, -'that only three of the trees re- ceo tly out are on the road allowance, viz.: two basswood trees and one elm tree about 60 rods from the Concession road. I located corners of Road from prev- ious knowledge of position of stake at N. W. angle of Lot 15, Con, 14. which was planted opposite the middle of fence which agrees with present stake on the west side of the road, Your obedient servant, F. W. Farncombe.
