Fire At Lucknow
James A. Geddes and Mrs. Geddes
were. forced to crawl from trie win-

and jump from a roof when fire of
unknown origin broke out in the

covered about 7 o'clock Friday mor-
ning in the Geddes variety stare, and

Sees Leg ,Amputated
Lying on the operating table in,
Victoria Hospital at few deys ago T.
Kestle, an 82 -year-old resident. of
Exeter, - cheerfully watched a surg-
eon amputate his right leg. Due to
his advanced age was considered in-
advisable to give Mr. Kestle a gener-
al anaesthetic; therfore, a spinal one
was administered. Amputation of
the limb, which was done by Dr. E.
D. Busby, London, was considered.'
necessary on occbunt of gangerous-
condition.
Test Case Decided
Division Court was held in Sea -
forth, before Judge T. M. Costello
A. case of interest to farmers was
that of Willis Dundas vs Lorne Hur-
ley and T. Bolton in an action for
$107.50. Judgment was given for''
the amount of claim with costs. The
backer of a promissory note contend-
ed he was liable on the. grounds that,
he had been notified at the maturity
of the note of its noxi payment. How-
ever, this defense was not upheld' by
the court. '
A .Curiosity
W. P. Thompson, Tuckersmzth, co-
uld hardly believe his own eyes the
otheremorning; for as he looked from
his house : he saw about_ 200 iaugse
snow balls dotting his fields. The
only explanation he could think of
was that some giant had spent the
night rolling snow balls, but as he
drove into Seaforth he saw that many
other fields had :been similarly treat-
ed. The high wind of Friday night,
however, had done the work, assisted
materially by the soft. snow.
Fourteen -Year-old Bride `*
A despatch from Walkerton states
the marriage took place quietly at.
the United church parsonage of Mil-
dred M. Stewart, eldest daughter of
Mrs. Matilda Wallace, of . town, and
the late.Alfred E. Stewart; to Arthur
W. Bolden, of Walkerton. The groom
is on the staff of the Canada Spool
and Bobbin Co:, while his newly ac-
quired wife, who last spring attain-
ed her 14th birthday, may rightfully
be accorded the distinction of being
the youngest bride ever to stand be-
fore a clergyman in the district_
Lost Cattle Located
The Ammoneit family, once well-
known residents of Carrick, later of
Normanby, and now occupying a
farm in Howick, missed five head of
cattle from their herd last week. As
soon as the loss was detected, they
set to work to try to locate the ^f -
tie. In this they had little troublet
for the animals left tracks in the snow
which indicated that they had travel- �I
led in .a westerly direction. The tracks
finally led to the home of a Howick
farmer, a mile or so north of Gorrie
and the police were notified: The
farmer, in whose stable tnze cattle
were found, was placed' under arrest
as well as his neighbor, who is al-
leged to have been a party to the
theft. The former has now been' ad=
mitted to bail. Both of the accused
farmers' will have their trial at Gbd-
erich in due time.
