70 factories in operation in this pro-
vince, employing about 7,000 hands in
1900 yielding the fanners for crops
cultivated for factory purposes over
$800,000. The bele employed in the

Accused of Heresy.
A special from Boston, Mass., to the
Iwndon Free Press, thus refers to a
former rector of the Trivitt Memorial
Choreb:—"Accused of being a traitor
to Unitarianism and being secretly a
follower of Mary Baker Eddy in
Christian Science, Rev. Ernest W.
Hunt, pastor of the Wollaston (Mass.)
Unitarian Church and known as a
pillar of the Unitarian belief in the
East, was dismissed by a stormy in-
dignation meeting of his parishioners
yesterday. Educated with brilliant
honors at Huron College, at London,
Ontarlo,•and ordained there into the
ministry of the Church of England by
Bishop Baldwin in 1892, later asking
to be deposed that he might enter the
Unitarian ministry, serving faithfully
in bis chosen faith, until his recent
utterances concerning "religion and
health," Dr. Hunt to -day finds himself
cast adrift front his wealthy parish.
He maintains stoutly his right to
preach the truth as he see., and his
few faithful friends who have stood by
him in bis present trouble declare him
to be a martyr in the cause of truth.
His followers have engaged a hall in
which Dr. Hunt will continue his
preaching.

lith Ccncession, spent a few days
with friends in the village during the
week.—Mr. Milton Edighoffer, of Sar-
nia, spent a few days here during the
past week.—One night last week great
excitement was caused by the appear-
ance of a colored gentleman on our
streets at a late hour, wbo appeared
to be mtiaistbe worse of liquor. The
question arose as to what should be
done and it was thought he ought to
be looked after and consequently little
skirmishes took place between the cit-
izens and the would be stranger, in
which the darky showed signs of great
strength and agility. It was soon
noised about among the spectators
and all kept a safe distance and when
the colored gent approached any of
the onlookers they quickly withdrew,
leaving him monarch of all be could
survey. Imagine their surprise when
suddenly the colored man faded,
"bleached out" as it were, end to
their surprise they found out they had
been subjected to a huge joke, that
the darky was no other tban one of
their number who a few minutes be-
fore had sat and chatted with the rest
of the boys around the different shops
and stores. He is one of the beet na-
tured citizens we have and thoroughly
enjoys a gond joke, even if the laugh
is on himself. This time, however, be
turned the tablets on the other fellows.
