Local tugs tried to get her off but without success. The Reid Wrecking Co.'s tugs were wired for, but were unable to reach her in time to be of any assistance, The furnishings were taken off Sunday and the boat abandoned. The boat was recently purchased from Hiram Walker, of Walkerville, and fitted up for a fishing cruiser, and was on • the way to Gorgian Bay ports. Fier captain did not know of the break- water. TANGLE OVER STREETS.—Somewhat of a compli0atiou has developed over the closing up of certain streets at the dock here, made necessary to find room for the C. P. R. yards. There seems to have been something in the way of an understanding between the town council and the railway company last year that the streets found neces• sary to be closed would be closed, but the legal steps were not taken at the time to reach tbat understanding and in the meantime the construction of the station and tracks was proceeded with so that certain of the streets re- ferred to are still legal streets though the tracks of the C, P. R. run over them. Notice was given in the legal form that the by-laws to close the streets would be proceeded with at the council meeting last night and so the matter had to come up, but there was a manifest disinclination to deal with the question, and a motion was made to leave the matter over, but this was later withdrawn, The question of claims for damages owing to the clos- ing up of the streets seems to be the bugbear, The town council agreed a short time ego to accept the sum of X760 from the railway company as compensation for the closing of the streets, but a motion was made at the last council meeting to reconsider this and Friday night the Reeve moved to give the streets to the railway company gratia,. the company to assume respon- sibility for any actions for damages, but the insertion ot such a clause in the by-laws, it seems would invalidate them. There are complatuts from three parties, who claim they would be injured by the closing of the streets— Capt. Babb, proprietor of the Ocean House, who says the closing of one street would prevent easy access from the C. P. R. station to his hotel ; Percy Walton, who owns a mineral spring lot, which he says he would be unable to reach if the streets were closed l and tYlrs. Evaugelia Hawley, the owner of a large amount of land at the dock who says the closing of the B edilcedpiiices l� as Beginning Saturday, Nov 2tiri, we will, to oatb buyers, ra prices on the following lines of (Goods Single Harness radon ed for cash--Meu'e Pebbled Leather Leggings,regu- -•Blanketsredueedfor cash. lar price , 1.76aud$2,00, reduood 10 Robes rednoed for dash. $1.60 cash, streets proposed to be closed, however in most eases have never been used as streets in the ordinary sense of the word, The whole property around has bean open to anyone to go where he wished, Both Col, McDonald, solicitor for the railway company, aorl E. L, Dickinson, town solicitor, were present at the.,meeting Friday night and Col, McDonald pointed out that the griev- ance of some of those objecting was mors imaginery than real. Three by- laws in this connection were given their first and second readings, and the question will conic up again at the next meeting, thougb it may not be finally disposed of then. One of the by-laws is to close up certain portions or streets which are now used by the railway, a secoud is to close up a street leading to the water front, and the third is to open a street iu place of this last the new street being /El a more convenient place than the one propos- ed to be closed. OLINTON GALT Wo,r HOUGH CUP,—The first game for the famous Hough Cup was played here Saturday of last week be- tween teams representing the Galt and Clinton Collegiate Institutes, the form- er winning by the score of 3 to 2. The Galt buys Were very much disappoint- ed at not being allowed to take the cup with them, as Clinton protested the game. Their ground for protest is based on the second goal for Galt, which was not snored in accordance with the rules governing the. cup.

The attention of the township Council has been called to the danger- ous railway crossing where the C. P. R. line passes the 9th line near Blyth.
