If a few more of our business men would follow suit it would be a good thing, WEnnXNG BELLS.—The corner of Queen and Turnborry Streets has gained considerable notoriety during the last few menthe in one shape or another. On Thursday forenoon of this weak we had a 'new change in the drama. It was of a matrimonial nature, the contracting parties being Thomas Thompson, of Seaforth, well known in this locality, and Bliss Minnie Muir, daughter of the late An- drew Muir, of Brussels. The happy couple were ably supported by Mise F. A. Shannon, of town, and Thos. Richardson, of Seaforth, The bride's troseeau was composed of ooffea col- ored lace, on pale blue, with lace to match. The bridesmaid looked charming in white eatin, with orange blossoms. The -nuptial knot was tied by Rev, •S. Jones in the presonoe of several friends, The bride was the recipient of many cost- ly, as well as usofnl presents. The happy eouple have taken their depart- ure for an extended tour to some of the most important cities of the east. "Glue's GREAT SUPPLEMENT.—With its Midsummer Number, our faeetiout contemporary, Grip, has issued a magnificent supplement, in the form of a lithograph plate, 18x24 inches, a group sof Conservative Leaders in Canada, The picture is as fine as a photograph, and is well worth fram- mg. Tho likenesses and autographs are accurate, and the whole picture is at once striking and pleasing. It is one of the best things of this kind over attempted in Canada ; and not only all Conservatives, but,thoee on the other side, will like to enure „it. The price, together with Midsummer Grip, is only 25 conte, and it will be forwarded to anyone enclosing that amount to the Oompany at Toronto. In this connection we may state that the success of the enlargement and improvement of Grip (now 16 phges) has led the Company to reduce the price of Canada's Comic Weekly to $2. New subsoribets sending $1 (together with,5-oants Sur tube and postage of plate), will get the paper for the last six months of this year, to Deo. 81, and have the Midsummer Number and its find Supplement Plate thrown in.

Tnz Vancouver News of Aug. 2nd Bays :—The Ronald Steam Fire En• gine, size No. 2, which left Brussels, Ont., on July 11th, arrived at Port Moody on the evening of Friday last the 80th inst. The cost of it coming by express freight over the Canadian Pacific Railway, is $800—a low rate considering that the price of trans porting a similar engine, which was conveyed from the same point, in February last year, to Now West - minister, was $450. At that period the Canadian Pacific had not been opened, but although that road has been completed only a few weeks the competition has already commenced, and both passenger and freight rates are being largely reduced. On Sat- urday, the Fire, Water & Light Com. mittee, after deciding that it would be much cheaper to have the engine brought by road, than by water, in- structed Berry & Rutherford to send a tram of four heroes to Port Boody for the purpose of hauling the steam- er to this city. At 10:80 yesterday morning Mr. Ronald who has been waiting at Port Moody for the , arriv- al of the engine, made a start with hie charge, and reached New West- minster quite safely and without any untoward incident. A. halt was made there for one hour and a half, in or- der to give the horses a rest and to refresh the inner man. At 6 o'clock the engine arrived in this city, and was located temporarily on the vac- ant lot of ground opposite the Relief Committee Room on Water street. Mr. Ronald said that the horses handled the engine with ease, there being no difficulty whatever in getting it over the road. He approved of it being hauled from Port Moody as tho journey had lubricated the wheels and set them in good working order. Today i; will be thoroughly cleansed and polished. Steam is to be got up to•night and au exhibition given of its powers to grapple with the fire fiend. The engine has a handsome appearance, being well and substan- tially made. Its weight is 5,000 Ms, the wheels are of extra large size and sot in elliptic steel springs, ing draft and movements being light and easy. It is capable of throwing one, two and four large and powerful streams a great height or. distance, the ap' paratus accompanying the engine be• ing ample for the protection of the city. Tho 2,000 feet of rubber lioee and four hose carriages make the equipment as perfect as it can bo, and we believe that there is no city of the same size and population as Vancouver which can boast of hav- ing such a, complete system of pro- tection from fire as our town now possesses, The figures, below give the cost of the engine and the accom- panying apparatus :— Steamer $8,800 Four hose carts, ordinary price §200 apiece 700 2,000 feet rubber hose, at 61.18 per foot 2,860 Freiget charges 800 Incidentals, cost of erecting engine 840 house, eto,, oto., say Grand total e7,500 Air.

D.S„ of Seaforth, was in town and made arrangements for a weekly visit to Brussels for the practice of his pro• fession. As may be seen by his pard he will be at the Queen's hotel every Monday. Mr. Fear is wall known to the people of this locality and needs no recommendation from lis. Mn. AND Mas. Jane D. RONALD, who are sojourning at the Regina ho- tel, leave at the and of this week for Southern California, where they,. go to visit relatives whom they have not seen for years. Mre. Barnum, a married sister, accompanies them. Mr. Ronald speaks highly of the easy grades and curves on the C.P.R. He gays that the road -bed, ties and gen- eral equipment of the line are first- class, making it far superior to any railway running through the United States.—Vancouver News. TORONTO INDUSTRIAL FAIR.—Tbe success which has attended the In• dustrial Fait in the past, appears like• ly to be eclipsed by the success of the oue for the present year, which opens at Toronto on the 8th of September next. Already the space in alt the large buildings is nearly taken up, and the character and novelty of the exhibits will be far ahead of those of previous years. The latest improve- ments in farming implements, ma- chinery and all kinds of manufactures will be found there, and the number of entries already made in the live stock departments enearo a magnifi• cent display in this respect, Our space will not permit us to particul- arise, but an excellent program of special attractions has been provided, and the reputation of the Toronto show in this respect justifies 1.10 in saying that they will be of au inter• esting and novel character, Cheap excursions and reduced fares will be given on all the railways. A large number of conventions and other at. tractions will be going on in the city at the time of the fair, and any of our l readers contemplating taking a holi- day, will not have a bettor opportun- ity of spending it with pleasure and profit than by taking a trip to the Toronto Industrial Fair.
