News Notes. -On Friday, 17th inst., there died in South Eaethope, one of lite oldest pioneers, Mr. WM. Priers, in the 88th year of his age. Mr. Pries, was born in Nreder ofll.eiden, Germany, and Dame to this country in 1849, and shortly afterhis. arrival settled in the •buahland of South •Eaethope, on the farm now occupied by his son-, Mr. John Pteiee, where he went through all the-hardehipe of pioneer life. - -Mr. Thomas Shore, of Ellice, appeared in the police courts, Stratford, on Saturday ':afternoon, charged with assaulting his hired ,nan, aoung fellow by the name of Suther- land. The latter said he was very deaf but his employer stated that he never had , any difficulty in hearing the noon whistle. It was proven that Mr. Shore had threatened to strike Sutherland, and even thrown him on the ground, bat after great provocation. The magistrate made Mr. Shore pay the costs, about $4. ,-Johnnie Smith, the little ten -year-old son of Mr. Smith, of Stratford, fireman at the Classic City flour mills, met with a frightful accident, on Thursday morning of last: week, at the Hub. He had been warn- ed to keep away from the machinery not five minutes before, but just- as soon as' the baker'a,baok was turned he was at it. l In some way he got his hand caught between two cog wheels in the machinery which run the fans, crushingthe third and fourth fing- ers, and also part of his hand. -Waterloo county was visited by one of the most severe thunder storms of the sea- son, accompanied by torrents of rain. Dur- ing the storm last Sunday night, .lightning :struck the barn of Wm. Mader, about six miles from Hespeler, totally destroying the 'building, together with , its contents, which consisted of the season's crop, as well as some of last year's grain, eight cattle, -a borne and a pig. The barn was one of the largest in the neighborhood, and the loss is very heavy. An insurance of $2,000 in the North Dumfries lc: South Waterloo Mutual Company will only piartialty cover the loss.
