In Dor- man as pitcher and Mitchell behind the home plate they bare a strong pair, while the playing of the other boys is good. They bat, catch and throw a little better than the average. The home players have played better hall than they played on this occasion, They secured plenty of hits off Dor- man but could not bunch then well enough to score often. While their catching was fair, their throwing was in many cases very wild and costly. Eight innings were played.

Stanbury received the following telegram from Goderich: "The case of Davies Packing Co. against Bobier ad- journed for ten days. Writing pai tic- ulars.-G. A. Humber. No letter arrived Wednesday morn- ing in explanation. As we stated last week the case of Davies versus Bobier came up for trial at the Town Hall on Wednesday of last week, The Davies Company to whom Mr. Bobier shipped a car of hogs on Monday, August 6th, had Mr. Bo - bier arrested on a charge of fraud to the extent of $14.74, which. they claim- ed was an overcharge. Bailiff Eilber of Zurich served the warrant on the previous Monday. At the trial on. Wednesday before Police Magistrate Humber of Goderich the evidence showed that Mr. Bobier bad purchased 36 hogs on Monday, July 80th, hut not having a carload he turned them in- to his piggery with others to be fed for a. week, and on August 6th, not being able to pick out the exact hogs, he weighed out a like number (36 hogs) whish showed a gain of 240 pounds. They were then shipped toPalmerston, but the'. house being overcrowded they were re -shipped to Harriston, thus be- ing two nights, ,.on the road. The shrinkage was consequently heavy, some 19i to the hog, while for one night on the road the shrinkage is us- ually from 11 to 12 lbs. Mr. Wright, bookkeeper for the Davies Packing Company was unable .to say wbat the skrinkage ought to have been for two nights on the road. Several farmers, from whom Mr. Bobier had purchased these hogs, testified to the correctness of Mr. Bobier's accounts with them. For the defense Messrs.Bobier, Mack, Essery and Tucker were examined. _Mr. Bobier's and Mr. Mack's evidence showed that when they arrived at the. station to ship hogs on August 6th, the train was already in the yard end it was impossible to take the bogs from the piggery and weigh them before weighing those the fanners were al- ready bringing in, consequently it was impossible to know just what each batch of hogs had gained in weight, however, it was ascertained that they had increased 240 lbs. as his checks showed. To show that this was not an abnormal increase in weight Mr. Stanbury produced the evidence of two reliable farmers who have made a prac- tice of weighing their hogs from week to week, Mr. Essery and Mr. Tucker, which evidence showed that bogs fed as Mr. Bobier's were, on butter milk and chop, should gain for two to three pounds per hog per day, while the weight put on in this case was less than one pound per day per bog. From slips returned from the Collingwood Packing Company to whom Mr. Bo - bier shipped hogs in 1905 it was shown that the shrinkage for 48 hours on the road was from 15 to 25 Itis. per bog, so that it would appear that the shrink- age of 19f lbs. was not excessive. The court closed. about 4:30,the mag- istrate withholding bis decision until Wednesday, 'August 29th, at10:30 a.m. Death of Lily Willis It is not often that we are called up- on to record so sad and sudden a death as it is our duty to chronicle this week. We refer to the sudden death of Miss Lily Willis, whose home is in Marlette; Mieb., and who arrived here Saturday evening to visit for a time with her relatives and friends, her home being. a few years since on Huron street,east of the town. She, accompanied by Birdie and Lillian Boyle, daughters of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Boyle of town, who have been spending the holidays there, arrived on the 6 o'clock train and.were met at the depot by Mrs. Boyle. Together they commenced to ,wink to the horse of Mrs. Boyle, car- rying their grips with them. They had only proceeded about three hundred yards when in answer to a question Miss Willis stated that she had not been feeling well and that they would rest for moment. The words had scarcely been uttered when she sud- denly fell forward upon the sidewalk and died immediately. Word was sent to the coroner, Dr. Browning, at once. Hewas away and De. Malloy was sum- moned, together with Constable Bis- sett. In the doctor's opinion an in- quest was unnecessary. The under- taker was therefore sent for and the body removed to the home of her aunt, Mrs. Geo. Eacrett. The shock to Mrs, Boyle and the children was a very se- vere one;: as indeed it was to the young lady's other relatives and friends in town, all of whom express the sincer- est sytnpathv for the parents, Mr. and Mrs. John. Willis, her 'brother, Fred, and sister, Miss Violet, all of whom reside in Marlette. Deceased was aged 83 years,: 9 Months and 25 days. The funeral took place on Tuesday after noon' at 4 &clock to the Exeter depot, thence to Marlette, Mich., for inter- tnent. An additional note of sadness is connected with this case, owing to the Sell 011S n,uri prolonged illness of de. ceased's mother, in Marlette, althongh. she is now improving sotnewbat.

There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or im- perfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deaf- nessis the result, and unless theinflammation can be taken out and tins tube restored to its normal condi- tion, hearing will bo destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces, We will give One hundred Dollars for any ease of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by hall's Catarrh Cure.
