Rural Dean Hodgins, met with a serious aocident, at the Collegiete Institute, on Wednesday of last week. He was playing foot ball, and was run up against by another player, injuring him in- ternally. At first it wise thought th re was not much the matter with hien, but he gradually grew worse until Thursday ev n--- ing his case was considered serious. n Friday, however, he took a- turn for he better, and we are pleased to learn that he is now in a fair way for recovery. • FOR CONFERENCE PRESIDENT. -The t. Marys Argus of last week says: "Rev. A. L. Russell, M. A., B. D., of Seaforth, is spoken of as a probable candidate for the presidency of the London Conference, to be held in the Crossley -Hunter church, 8. Thomas, in June." Mr. Russell is !one of the cleverest andmost capable pastors in the Conference. He has the experience and business tact neceseary -for such a epOsiton, and we are sure his fellow ministers could - not make a better selection of a presiding officer. Mr. Russell's many friends in Sea - forth would be pleased to sea this well de- served tribute of abilitypaid him. - • A SAD BER.E.s:VserENT.---The many friends of Mrs. T. O. Kemp, of this town, will .extend their eincerest sympathy to her in the particularly sad affliction she has been called upon to bear, in the death of her. second son, Kenneth, -which sad event, cm - curved at Nlontreal -on Tueeday. Mrs. Kemp had juat"returned to her home here after spending ,thepast season in her old home in Beamsville, -when she received word on Friday last of Kenneth's serious illness in the Montreal heepital. Mre. Kemp- left immediately for Montreal, and on Tuesday word was received of his death. • 'Kenneth was about 18 years of age, and was a par- ticularly fine young fellow, and a deeided favorite with his companions. -He . had been employed in Montreal, • and altheugh he had been feeling unwell for some time, had only ceased work a little over a week previous to his deathl, when it was fouled that ho was suffering with typhoid fever'. He was removed to the hospital that be might have the best of treatment, but all to no avail, and death deprived us of a moet promising young man. The bereavement will be a particularly sad one for his moth r and the other members of the family as they had no intimation of his illness until Friday hot, and little did they think then that his earthly race was ED nearly run. The deat of Kenneth Kemp has cast a gloom ovcfr our citizens, and to. the mother and oth r friends goes out the heartfelt empathy f all. The remains were taken to Beamsvil e for interment. 1 MATRIM ONIA I, -The gentleman referred to in the following paragraph, which sive take from the Stratford Herald, is a son a Mr. Samuel Reid, of the Mill Road, Tucker - smith, and well known in Seaforth.

A teOTII R DISA'iTFOL'S FIRE.-Blyth's ill luck is sti 1 following it. In the past couple of years i has suffered severely by tire in the huein es portion.of the village, and on Tueeday of last week one of its most im- portant industries Was wiped out of exist- ence by the destruction of the flour mill and elevator operated by Mr. W. H. Finnemore. The fire was cliscovilred about four o'clock in the morning by Mr. James Sims, who lives close by. At that time both bhe mill and elevator, which Are several feet apart, were both in flanse and had apparently been burning for some time. The alum 3 was speedily given, but the firemen could do nothing towards saving the mill and elea vator, although they saved the boiler and engine rooms, with their contents, and the wood in the yard, from drstruction. How the fire started is a mystery, and many think it was of incendiary origin, and certainly the appearances are suepicious. The mill was owned by Mr. Augustus Boehmer, of Berlin, and was valued at $8,000. It was built 42 years ago by the late Charles Whitehead, of Clinton, and was one of te e largest and best constructed flour mills in the county, being four storys high and built of. brick. Two years and a half ago Mr. W. H. Finnemore leased the mill and did an excellent local and foreign business during that time. Mr. Finnemore is a heavy loser by the fire.' In the mill were 700 bags of flour ready for shipment, and 500 bushels of wheat, besides bran, shorts and bags. The elevator con- tained 3,000 bushels of wheat. All the officio contents were destroyed, including books and private papery. Mr. Finnemore places his loss on flour, wheat, bags, etc., at $4,800. He carried an insurance of $2,500. Boehmer had an insurance of $5,000 on the mill and elevator. Belgrave. OPEN FOR CONGRATULATIONS. -Invitations are out for the marriage of Mr. Malcolm C. McCully, of Cincinnati, to Mime Marie A.
