considering several alternatives, including
centralization of the library or construction

per hour as winds up tp 92 miles per hour
were recorded.

Goderich made quite a fuss recently about
the county jail being without a prisoner, the
claim being made that this had never
occurred before in the history of the
institution.
Mr. W.G. Pope of Hulled Township,
however, stated to the News -Record last
week that twice in his recollection he had
seen claims in the newspapers about Huron
County jailbeing empty. He had no proof of
this, aa he had only read it, nor could he give
dates, bill
these two occasions.
Mt. Alonza Rodgers of Goderich Township
had a narrow escape from death on Monday
morning from the effects of coal gas fumes.
Mr.Rodgers lives alone and his daughter,
Mrs. Haacke, wife of Reeve Wilmot Haacke,
went into visit her father and found him in
an unconscious condition. A doctor was
summoned and' he was taken to Goderich
hospital, where he was soon brought around,
but it was a close. shave.

Now that the `Veribests' in Bayfield have
disbanded, we recommend a rest to some of
those old bachelors, who ' spent ,the winter
beating their way up to the hall to link with
the lady Veribests, some of whom are as yet.
in short dresses. The opinion of Capt. Fergus
is that those old boys now on the decline of
life ought to be ashamed of themselves to
continue patronizing the ballroom for the
purpose of doting over those young lady
Veribests, rather thantryingto prepare a
homeand_be satisfied with but one of the
number and we'here endorse Cap's opinion.
But as the ladies are' satisfied, we don't
object and although they pretended offence
at the preachers and our columns, yet it was
easy to observe them smiling through their
tears and probably pleased with their,
recently acquired notoriety.

Some parties armed with sticks and their
faces masked broke into the house occupied
by Mr. Galagher of Bayfield and demanded
of Mr. Galagher where he kept his money,
making threats and demolishing his
property, also ill using him. Mr. Galagher
recognized one of the party and went to our
Chief Magistrate, the Reeve, for a warrant
tendering money for the same and was
informed by that gentleman that he could
not give him a warrant as his evidence and
another was not sufficient for a conviction,
that it would be necessary to have two
witnesses besides himself for a conviction
and refused point blank to receive his
information, telling Mr. Galagher that they
could put him in the lake and the town would
be well rid of him. Now, sir, the fact is that
Mr. Galagher is a good peaceable and law
abiding citizen, honest and industrious, but
a conservative, and the Reeve takes this
plan to scare out conservatives, but his little
game will not work as Mr. Galagher will
make it warm for him is he hasto go to the
Attorney General.

At breakfast in a southern Texas hotel a
tourist ordered hot cakes smothered in
melted butter.
"We only serve margarine here," the
waitress said.
"I can't understand it," the tourist said
with some annoyance. "Here I've been
driving hundreds of miles across wonderful
grazing land and have been told tinnie "and
again that the finest cattle in the world are
raised right here. Why don't you serve
butter?"
"Ma'am," she said, "here in Texas we
ride 'em and we eat 'em, but we don't milk
em."
