The following partieulers regarding.
the life of the late John McFarlane
of this village will no doubt prove of
interest to his many relatives and
friends The deceased was a --native
of Perthshire Scotland and emigrat-
ed to this country with his parents
in the year 4851 settling on the 14th
concession of Tuckersm'th a short
distance east of our village where he
continued to carry on fa ming for
some thirty years, when h r •tinted
and moved to ITensall purchasing 'a
neat home on Queen street where he
conrtinued to reside until his death
something over twenty:. years so that
was one of our early settlers ;in the
year 1878 Ivlr. McFarlane took a trip
to Scotland and while there was hap-
ily married to Miss Isabella McGowan
of Perthshire Scotland who still sur-
vives him;. In religion the deceased
was a PreViyterian and in politics a
Reformer and was well informed on
matters of both churrch and state
and for his many excellent qualities
wavery highly respected. His death
after only a few weeks illness in his
74 tit year was much regretted as he
previously enjoyed good health and
seemed likely to enjoy many more)
years of happy life as 1r" lived the
con anted life in his quiet unas `-entarc
touis manner. The funeral co • £ `�

The Sea -forth Fall Fair was held
on Tuesday and Wednesday of last
week. The first day was devoted to
the indoor display and the various
branches of this part of the fair was
above the average. The display of
grains and fruits was the best in
years, apples especially being a very
superior quality. The merchants also
took more than ordinary interests
in the fair this year, several having
good exhibits. The weather on Tues-
day was all that could be desired, but
Wednesday was the reverse, a heavy
rain setting in in. the morning and
continuing until noon Notwithstand-
ing the wet morning there was a big
exhibit of horses and a good display
of cattle and other live stook, so that
desuite the outdoor show was almost
equal to former years. Owing to the
heavy track the horse races and oth
er sports had to be cancelled.
Disasterous Fire—after 9 `o'clock -
Friday morning last fire destroyed
the stables in connection with the
Queen's Hotel Seaforth. When the
fire was first noticed the barn was a
mass of flames inside and from the
smoke and fire many thought the ho -
hotel was in a blaze The alarm was
airomptiy rung and firemen respsnd!ed
id a hurray but just as they were
preparing for action something went
.wrong with one• of the cartts and the
hose did not cane off as they should
'-ave done. Then the hydrant at the
• -.oyal Corner was not working prop-
erly so that the flames which had al-
ready considerable start, Made furth-
er headway and things looked serious
for a time However the firemen
were equal to the occasion and it was
not long ebfore the fire was under
control In addition to the barn being
burned vconsiderable damage • was•
done to the east side of the hotel
through fire water and smoke The
wonder however is that the first
which had already got into the hotel
did not do more damage and it was
vigilance of the fireman that the
hotel itself did not fall a victim !to
the flames

took out a cigarette and'beech•
sinoke. HP was aroused by a Team
Voice behind bim.
"Did you not see the nonce tit:, t
trespassing is alloyed on th
grounds?"
The gentleman arose and encore
with ceremonious politeness.
""I did." he said.
"Then I do not understand ,thy
should avail yourself of the .pla,•e
lounging."
""To tell the truth. 1 have a s
prejudice against such notices."
"Why so?"
"For several reasons. Firstly, I. qu
tion the natural right of any one
appropriate to his or her exclusive n
any portion of the planet. But ib
is based on philosophic principles t
deep to enter upon just now. Secun
•
]y, there is, I think, selfishness to r
fusing others the enjoyment of a
tractive and restful grounds."
"Perhaps it you owned a place 11
this and saw persons camping vn
and injuring things you would feel di
ferently."
"That would not alter tbe case, as
have stated it. I am capable . of pu
ting myself in your place and can a
predate your feeling."
"Oh, we don't own the place:
merely rent it-"
""What kind of a person is the own
er?". ;
"r don't know, never having see
him. He is a noble, good man."
"Is he handsome?"
"Why do you ask that?"
"A woman's idea of a man is ofte
infueneed by such matters."
A trifle of indignation flashed in he
eye. ""I assure you," she said, "that i
is a very much more valuable trai
than physioal beauty that has preju
diced me in favor of Mr: Chenowoth."
"Chenowothl That's an uncommon
name. I am in very close touch with
a man of that name:"
"Our Mr. Chenowoth is abroad."
"That's where I met my Mr. Cheno-
woth."
"`He's been traveling in Switzerland.
• We had a letter from him dated Gene-
va yesterday. He was to sail immedi-
ately for America."
""I made an ascent of Mont Blanc
with my Mr. Chenowotb not a month
ago."
"What's your friend's first name?'
"Bert."
"`Albert? 0:ir landlord is .Albert B."
- "'Tb'at''s it—Albert Borland Cheng•
'troth.*
"Isn't that strange that yogi should
know him so well? Now, are you sur-
prised that $ have spoken oto highly of
him?"
"I certainly am surprised. I never
saw anything in him to warrant such
an encomium."
"You didn't? You are not very loyal
to your friend."
"I didn't say be was any especial
friend of mine."
"You said you are in 'very *•lose
touch with him." .
"Did 1? That doesn't nece barfly
mean that I admire him. But I am
open to conviction. If you will give
me your reasons for your own admi-
ration
dmi
ration you may succeed in planting it
in me."
"Perhaps we had better go up to the
house, since you know our landlord so
well. I shall be pleased to offer you
some refreshment."
"Thanks very much. I will go :with
you with pleasure."
When they were comfortably seated
in the drawing room the lady, said:
""Now '1 will tell you why I so ad-
mire Mr. Chenowoth. We and Mr.
Chenowoth have a mutual friend, Mr.
Chard. Father is a retired clergyman,
and such, though they may be of the
kingdom of heaven, are not usuallee
burdened with worldly goods. Air.
Chenowoth bad an opportunity, tet
rent 'this place for a good sum. Mr.
Chard, thinking it ;would be vacant,
tried to get it for father for a nom-
inal rental. When Mr. Che'now'oth
heard about it he told Mr. Chard that
father might have it. What do you
think of that?" •
