Sanders returned Mon- day from Manitoba and New Ontario, where he has been for several months. He speaks of the soil in New Ontario as being good in .localities, but would rather recommend it to sportsmen than tillers of the soil.

Mr. Jones takes immediate possession, but Mr. Henry Dilling will complete his lease term thereon, which expires a year hence, when Mr. Jones will again re- sume farming. The Aur•tion Sale of steers by Mr. T. P. Warner, on the Agricultural grounds, Saturday, was well attended, but the prices realized were only fair owing to a slump in the cattle market. These steers were brought from the vicinity of Chatham, feed being so scarce down, there, owing to much of the grass and other feed being badly damaged by so much wet weather, that the farmers were obliged to dis- pose of them before winter set in. Mr. Warner informs ns that there are thousands of cattle yet to be taken from that district before snow flies. Ye sterda5was the King's g sB Birthday.. Harvey Bros. Star flour certainly is a leader.

We refer to the demise of Mr. Frederick Fisher, who had for several months been a sufferer from brain trouble. Almost from the time Mr. Fisher was taken down with the disease his case was considered a serious one and baf- fling the best medical skill, he passed away on Friday morning last at the age of 65 years and one month. The deceased was a native. of Usborne where he, nearly all his life, followed the occepation of.farining and by his skill and faithful application to duty he succeeded in accumulating consid- erable of this world's goods, A few years ago he retired from the farm and took up his residence in town with every prospect of many years being added to a retired life. He was a man of peculiarly reserved character and while eccentric in many of :his ways he had many good traits. Be- sides a sorrowing widow, he is survived by one daughter. The funeral took place from hislate residence Carling Street on Sunday last to the Exeter Cemetery and was largely attended. Hicks for November. The next storm. period is central on the 14th. Its influence will be felt, in all its varying phases, from the 12th to the 16th. At first it :will turn warmer and the barometer will begin falling in western sections. These conditions will progress to the eastward, accord- ing to the laws of storm movements, followed by more rain, turning to snow west and north, during and about the 14th to 16th. The moon be- ing in apogee on the 17th, and on the celestial equator on .the 18th, the pro- babilities are that a threatening state of weather will be prolonged, possibly into the reactionary period central on the 19th and 20th. On and touching the 19th and 20th there will be a re- actionary swing of the elements back to more general and decided storm conditions. Depressed barometric conditions will appear, the tempera- ture will rise progressively from the west, and autumnal storms of rain and snow will take up their transition march from west to east over the country, all followed by return of ris- ing barometer and change to much colder. On Thursday evening last the elec- tion returns were heard by the Liber- als of this vicinity in the Opera House, while the Conservatives congregated in the Town Hall to hear the tele- grams read. An interesting feature of the Conservative meeting was the guessing contests introduced by Dr. Rollins, the President of the LiberaI- Conservative Association, who, as .a student of human nature, wished to know the feeling of the different per- sons at the meeting in regard to the contest in the Dominion and in the riding of South Huron, the winners to receive $1 each from the President. Before the reports carne in, slips of paper were passed among the people. Each guesser placed upon the paper the name of the man whom he thought would win in the riding and the ma- jority he would receive, also who would be the next Premier and his majority in the House; to all of which he signed his name. Some 93 guesses were made in each contest; two thought Fraser would be. elected and two thought Borden would be the next Premier, The majorities for Gunn ranged from one to 200; for Laurier from 1 to 63. The winner of the first named contest was Mr. T. H. Mc0al- lum (the first man to hand in his slip) who guessed 111, which has since been officially declared as the correct ma- jority. The winner of the other con- test has not yet been declared. Opera House, Next Saturday Night, Nov. 12th, Mack's Entertainers, Minstrels. 11 you can't laugh, don't come, for we are funny.
