Committed.—Thie Goderieb Star
says: A lad' of eleven 'years of age,
named Charles Constable, tent up
from Seaforth for stealing a watch,
the property of Mr. J. K. Tyerman,
was up before Judge Doyle yester-
day. The evideride showed that the
boy is one cif _a gang who commit
Such ,depredatians, and are appar-
ently not Under -parental control.
Investigation was also made on be-
half of the Children's Aid Soeiety,
and as the beat course in the boy's
own interestS he was committed to
the Victoria Industrial School for an
indefinite term, in the hepe that
strict training and an education will
turn him into the right path. The
ease is one that showed the necessity
for a Children's Aid Society, and
some stringent enforcement .of the
Truancy Act by the publicschool

Things in the Old Land.—Mr. G.'
Turnbull returned home from the
old country last week. Ile had been
over with a lot of horses, which he
wa.s suecessful in lending in first
class shape -notwithstanding a some-
what rough voyage. Ile disposed of
his horses in Glasgow and spent: sev-
eral weeks looking around, mostly
in• Scotland. Mr, Turnbull says the
-old country is done ae a horse mar-
ket at present, the prizes on this
side being too high to permit any-
thing being Made out of them at
prevailing prices there. He says
that times are very dull and, trade
in all branches is mueh depressed.
Ile was surprised at the firm holil
•that Chamberlainism had secured
on the people of all classes( Tho
manufacturers aro suffering severe-
ly from German and American com-
petrtion and the people are clamor-
ing for retaliation. An instance
whiob occurred while Mr. Turnbull
was there illustrates the situation.
A very large iron bridge is being.
constructed within a few miles of
Glasgow. A German firm got the
contract for this bridge and is now
doing the work while many Scot-
tish, bridge firms have their estab-
lishments working at halt time on
account of scarcity of orders. Cases
isuch, as this are numerous and they
aro causing immense dissatisfaction
among manufacturers and working
people. Mr. Turnbull, from what
he sew and heard during the few
Weeks he was there, is cenvineed
that England must heve a elane
in her fiscal policy before long and
that change will be in the direction
of 'greater protection, whatever
form it may take.
•
The Hay Crop.—Next week farm-
ers generally will be busily engaged
with theii hay crop. The weather
thus far has been somewhat catehy,
but we hope for better things later
on. Tinder existing circumstances,
if farmers 'desire to procure the
best results from their crop, they
mast hanale _ it with the greatest
care do that the prodefct will be of
the very best quality. We have as
good bay in this county as can be
grown in .the world and all that is
needed •is care in saving •it. An is
well knoevn, tbe old country furnish-
es the principal market for our
surplus nay. There is an unusually
good crop this year in the old coun-
try. There is also a very heavy
crop in the Province of Quebec,
w'hile the yield in Ontario will be
considerably over the average'. This
being the case, it will only be the
very best for w'hich a prefitable
market can be secured. Farmers

eliould be careful, not to out too
much, at one rime, so they can cure
What they cut without, allowing it
to get wet. They -should alao re-
member that a heavy due on dry
hay is just as injurious to the qual-
ity as a shower of rain. Farmers.
therefore, have the matter pretty
much in their own hands. They
have the article, and, if they take
care to have it properly saved, they
will be able to get the highest
rices for it, despite the large sup -
41y that is sure to be on the market,
but, 'on aecount of the large supply,
if it is not well saved, and of good
quality, they will not likely be able
to dispose of it at any price, and cer-
tainly nOt at a price that will be
profitable to them. The quality is
the- 'determining factor between
profit and loss. As an example of
the value of the ,hay crop to the
farmers, we may state that Mr. -Geo.
Stewart, Of McKiliop, shipped over
600 tons during the month of June,
and he is only one of the many.

From AustraTia.—Mr. David Alex-
ander, of Melbourne, Australia, ac-
companied by Mi. A. Coseas, of
Win,gham, was here this week. Mr.
Alexander is a son of the late Mr.
William Alexander i of the 3rd coil -
cession of Tuckeesraith, but he is
not a native of Canada. In fact this
is his first Visit to Canada.. He was
born .in Scotland arid has been a Tee-
ieleint of Australis for over forty
years. While here he Was the guest
of Mr. and Mrd Wm. Elcoat, of
Tuckersmith. He was paying a visit
to the friends a d scenes of his
youth in Scotland ind came here by
Montreal and was i»et in Toronto by
Mr. and Mrs. Coseis. He goes from
here to Manitoba and the Northwest
and will go home hy way of British
Colembia and the Pacific coast. He
hopes to spend a 'couple of months
in the Canadian Northwest. While
there he will be the guest of Mr,
and Mrs, Thos. Ballantyne, .former-
ly of 'Homan, Mrs, Ballantyne being
a sister. Mr. Aleietn,der is, a man in
the prime of life and. looks as if the
world were good to him. He is m-uch
pleased with whet he has seen of
Canada thus far. He says Lim people
of Australia are not so enamoured
with the system of Government
ownership and operation of railways
as eome Imre would have us be-
lieve. The disadvantages of the
system are -neither few nor light
and many in Australia would be
only too please.d to return to the
old system if they could. The Gov-
ernment managed' railways are ex-
pensive and the management is much
less economical than by private.cor-
notations.
