her acquaintance.
--Wednesday of last week the town hell
of Wingham sounded an alarm of fire; The
. <cause of the alarm was found to be at Mo -
Lean & Son's saw.mill, Where, it is 'apposed,
a spark from the smoke -stack must have ig
sated in the sawdust about fifty, yards from
the mill. It had been smouldering for some
time before the alarm was given, and had
gained considerable headway, the fire cover -
6g quite an area. It was dangerous, but
was caught in time. The firemen were soon
on the grounds, and succeeded in flooding it
out.
The many friends of Mrs. John South -
eat, of Stephen, will regret to learn of her
death, which occurred on Monday morning
of last week, at the age of 60 years. De-
eeased had been ill for some time, the result
of a severe attaot of la grippe, but the di-
rect cause of her death was cancer of the
stomach. Until a few years ago, Mr. and
Mrs. Southcott were esteemed residents of
Exeter. They bought a farm in the 10th
concession of Stephen and have since lived
upon and worked the same. The bereaved
husband and family have the sympathy of
the community.
—On Thursday of last week a serious ac-
cident happened to the 11 -year-old son of
Joseph Seaga, of the 8th concession of
Stephen. It appears that while driving the
hone which was attached to the hayfork,
the rope became twisted around his left leg
above the ankle. The horse at the same
time took fright and ran away, the rope
nearly severing the leg —crushing both bones
and leaving only about half of the flesh con-
necting the parts, and presenting a pitiful
sight. Medical aid was summoned and the
injured limb attended to. Fears were enter-
etained that the foot would have to be ampu-
tated, but there is hope now of saving the
lim

—A couple of runaways occurred last
week at Holmesviile. Among the first was
1.11 team belonging to Mr. Ezra Pickard,
bitched to a binder,
which resulted in sever-
al panels of broken fence and a badly smash -
et machine. On. Sunday as Mrs. B. Forster
and her son, Harold, were `driving to church
• jet the evening, a rig drove up aud attempt.
ed topass. Mrs. Forster drew her horse to
.eone side, and in doing so went a little too
far, letting the two outside wheels off the
road (both riga were going at a good rate),
and in trying to get into the road again
-turned too quwkly, upsetting the buggy.
With the exception of es few bruises nothing
-serious, was done. The top of the rig was up,
and the wonder is that they got off so safe.
Mr. Albert Jervie, who was riding in it at
the time, got off with nothing more than a
good dusting. The shafts were smashed and
the top broken'some.
—There died at lot one, in the leth con -
•cession of the township of Ashfield, on Fri.
day, 21st ult., one of the oldest and moat
highly esteemed residents of the township,
in the person of Mr. William Murdoch, fath-
•er of Councillor J. G,Murdoch, of Lucknow.
Deceased, who was in his 65th year, was
among the early pioneers of the neighbor-
hood, and being a stone mason by trade, he
was very widely known, and enjoyed the
confidence and respect of the entire com-
regnity. He had been ill for over a year
past with inward trouble, ,and although
everything was done for him that medical
skill could suggest, for many months he had
-suffered the most excruciating pain. By
bard work and industry Mr. Murdoch had
accumulated a good share of this world's
goods, and his fine stone residence was the
scene of a large gathering of friends and
neighbors, who had assembled to pay a last
tribute of respect to the _memory of the de-
ceased. The funeral cortege was one of
the largest ever held in the neighborhood.
—What might have proved a serious and
fatal accident happened on the premises of
Mr. Richard Gould, near Exeter, on Mon-
day of last week. It appears Olive, his
- seven-year old daughter, and Willie, the
four-year old POD of Wm. Creech, were play-
ing beside. a pile of lumber and by some
means thewhole thing,whioh was veryahaky,
toppled over on them. The screams and
piteous Mei of little 011ie attracted the at-
tention, of Mimi Emily Gould, who rendered
timely asetitance and extricated them from
their -perilous predicament. No doubt if the
unfortunate little creatures had not been re-
leased immediately they would have perish-
ed, Little 011ie was covered to her waist
and Willie was completely out of sight with
two or three heavy boards resting heavily
on his face. When taken out he was un-
coescious and remained so for some time.

BRIEFS. —Our civic holiday will be held

pleasure seekers.—The farmers in 'thie sec-
tion, having finished haying, are all busily

Paris Gamblers.
THE RACE COURSES -ARE RESPONSIBLE EOR
MANY A POOR SAN'S DOWNFALL.
The "gambling fever has reached its
height among all classes of French people,
but serious as its effect may be on the rich,
on the working classes It is horrible. Day
after darthe racing: grounds are filled with:
people who lose their day's work,their taste
for work, and the money they have earned
by labor. Even the children are instated
Into all the secrets of racing.
Although the passion for betting or gamb-
ling is common to all classes, there was a
time, and that noteVery long ago, when only
the rich 'could 'Way their taste.
Now race track$ are more and more num-
erous around the walls of Paris, and for a
few sous one can have a place in an immense
brake drawn by sit horses. For a few more
Sous admission is obtained to a race track,
where the workman may gamble for sum
from one frank upward.
A TERRIBLE EXAMPLE.
We have just bed a terrible example of
the result of gambling. A wine merchant
named Coupe was soper, industrious and
prosperous; his home was happy, his wife
and five children loving and devoted, but a
few months ago Codpe began to read. the
sporting journals.- Influenced by the pro-
misee of fortune tepidly made, he began
betting at races. All the receipts from his
business were sacrificed, and, losing his last
son, the wine merchant became moody,eilent
and dreamed of suicide. But in order not
to leave his wife and children in misery he
decided that they must die with him. One
•morning it was discovered that Coupe had
carried his resolution into effect,only he had
made his wife a partner in hie crime. The
father killed first his wife then his children,
one after the other, and ;he last ball in the
revolver was reserved' for himself.
• LOST AT THE RACES,
A will found Is signed by husband and
wife, and In this will is acknowledged the
loss of money at taces the weight of debt
and the utter despair for the future.
Another example; Among the twenty.
seven individualgarreated last week in the
Bois de Boulogne was a woman clothed in
rage who begged that she might be question-
ed privately by the Police 'Commissioner.
She acknowledged that she was the divorced
wife eon honorable merchant. The 500-
000 franks- that she received from her bus -
bend at the time of separation had been
squandered on the race track.

—The other evening Mr. E. A. Cawseyee
contractor, of St. Marys, had an experieode
in Stratford which will not be easily erased
from his memory. Men were raising one of
the mammoth iron pillari that will support
the front walla over the windows of the new
Myers building, and when about half way
up it swung around and fell against the
middle wall, breaking away a portion. As
it fell it came within a foot of Mr. Cavesey,
who was stending near by. The pillar
weighs about 1,500 pounds, end the conse-
quences had the pillar struck him can be
quite easily imagined.
