Miss O'Connor, who has been absent at Brussels the past -two weeks attend- ing at the bedside of her father, who has been dangerously ill, returned to her duties as music teacher in Gorrie this week, her father- beingnow convales- cent. The tenders for the erection of the new Methodist Church were opened on Monday but the committee have not yet made a selection. We understand, some of the tenders -were not complete and, were referred -back for explanation. Meanwhile_ all the figures are kept quite secret and no information '`can .-.. be gleaned from the committee: - Mr. Putland who has managed- the Albion hotel in this village fo* '-the- past year or so has given up the hotel busi- ness and removed his family( Brussels.

Wiggins & Walker purchased the old Methodist Church and will use it in the construction of their livery barn. John Green, sr., of Turnberry, near Wroxeter, started for Neepawa, Man., on Tuesday. He has several children there with whom he intends to visit for a time. If the climate and business suits him he will make his permanent home there. The best wishes of his hosts of friends in this section -go with him. East Luther has abolished the statute labor and substituted a money tax at the rate of 60 cents per, day. Other townships will look on this venture with deep interest and many are confident that the statute labor system will soon be a thing of the past in Ontario. If East Luther with the famous swamp traversing one side of it from north to south, can get along with 60 per day, Howick ought to substited 40 cents per day with profitable results. Mr. Bricker, of Waterloo County, who lately bought the McLaughlin farm, on the 7th con., is this week moving onto his property. He was inconvenienced somewhat, early in the week, by the non -arrival of his car of goods. Mr. Jas. McLaughlin sowed about three acres of oats in one of his lots in Gorrie on Friday last. A cold spell fol- lowed on Saturday and Sunday, accom- panied by ,snow, but was not serious enough to injure the sown grain. Mr. W. S. Bean has the material on the ground for veneering Taman's tailorshop, on Main Street, The con- tractors have finished the excavation for a cellar at the rear. When finished the building will present an imposing appearance. Good Friday will, we understand, be generally observed as a holiday in Gorrie. Messrs. Bean, McLaughlin & Co. and Perkins, genera( merchants, and'. several other business men have in - informed us of their intention to close their place forthe day. Services are to be held in the English church at 2.30 p. m. Mr: Wm. Doig has received his fine trotting mare Jennie Everett, out of Bluebull, 2.15, and a Messenger mare, The animal came from Montreal on Monday in charge of our well-known local horseman, Mr. Robt. Edgar. Jennie Everett is a chestnut weighing about 1100, has a silky coat of hair, and is a well formed and beautifully pro- portioned animal and has been very much admired by - lovers of horseflesh since her arrival. She has made very fast time on the track but has never yet received an official record. Mr. Doig paid a handsome price for this superb beast and is justly proud of her. She will be exercised on one of the tracks in the neighboring towns, Gorrie, unfor- tunately having made no provision to en- courage the keeping of this class of horseflesh here.

It is, expected the meetings will close about the middle of this week. A good work has been done and about thirty have expressed their conversion. On Wednesday morning of last week, little Olive, daughter of Mr. Alex. Mc- Master, breathed her last after an ill- ness of about three weeks. The little one never fully recovered from the effects of the poisonous matter she ac- cidently took about a year ago. Her funeral occurred on Friday afternoon at 2 o'clock and was largely attended. Mrs. Wm. Sandbury left with her family, on Tuesday of last week for Portage la Prairie, Man., where she in- tends to reside. - The millinery opening at J. W. San- derson's is very attractive and is being much admired by the ladies. The young lady in charge shows herself to be a skilled artist, and the patrons of this establishment can rest assured of being served with the very dainties novelties in millinery.

Much anxiety was occasioned in Gorrie this week when the fact was announced that two of Mr. Geo. Horton's children were afflicted with diphtheria.- The elder one of the two little ones, had been slightly ailing since Friday evening last when on becoming worse on Tuesday Dr. Tuck was called in and pronounced the case to be diphtheria and the child is stili very low. He also found a younger child, which had only com- plained a few hours previously, to be attacked by the same disease, but with the prompt application of remedies, the younger child is not seriously ill. Measures were at once taken to prevent the spread of the disease in the neigh- borhood, and no other cases are reported so far. The trustees of the school, after consulting Dr. Tuck, decided not to close'the school although there is con- siderably diminution in the attendance. Mr. Forton at once separated himself frcm his business leaving it- in charge. of other hands so that there could be no possibilityof contagion in this direction, theshopand residence being several blocks apart. The ijnipathy of the public goes out to Mr. Horton and it is earnestly hoped his bright and interest- ing children will be spared to him. Field and garden seeds of every Tariety i;,Gorrie Drug Store. Orange Hill. untended for last week.) Our - trustworthy townsman, John. Hoffman, began his duties with Mr. Jno. Spotton on April lst. John's testimoni- als are no doubt good and he will do his best to please in neatness and despatch of work. Mr. Alexander Montgomery, - jr., is busy making syrup, and judging from the time he started he must have all demands supplied. - Our prayer meeting is better attended now. The patrons come out better and the leader who has a great deal of the grace of God in his heart which shows itself in humility will redouble his dili- gence and strive to convert the patrons. On Monday afternoon the fire alarm was sounded. The cause was a burning chimney in Mr. Thos. Gibson's fine new residence near the sawmill. The house was filled with smoke fora time but the fire was soon put out before any material loss was sustained. An effort is being made here to or- ganize a lodge of Sons of Scotland in this village. It is an insurance society. Reports come in of plowing and even seeding done, but farmers can scarcely be said to be more than fairly entered upon the spring work. Mr. Wm; Sanderson returned - on Sat- urday after a.shart visit,,extending over three weeks, in Manitoba. He is -looking well and - enjoyed a pleasant though short trip. - Mr. Lawrence Henry, who has been absent in Manitoba the past six months, most of which time be has been buying grain at Portage la Prairie, returned to his home in this village last Saturday. His many friends here are pleased to see him again. He claimed to have gained 35 pounds in, weight while in the North- west. Full line of Wall Paper, with borders to match, at Fox's Drug Store. The Masonic lodge -room m this vil- lage has been much beautified by. the addition of over $200 worth of lodge furniture, consisting of officers' chairs, altar, sofas, and opera chairs. Forest Lodge brethren now have as magnifi- cent a room as any in this section of the Province. Fordwich. Some have thought the petition against a second hotel license, of which mention was made last weekiwas cir- culated with a view of favouring the old stand against the new. There is no such intention. The promoters of the petition are not in favor of any liquor license, and are of the opinion that if a good boarding house were in existence, with accommodation for horses, and the travelling public, without any intoxicat- ing drinks of any kind being kept, such a house would pay.. There are quite a number of persons needing places to board, that would rather hire their boar& at a public than a private House; provided clean, comfortable houses were at hand. One difficulty in small rising villages is that the public hoiises ard np- plimented with privileged corners, and it is thought without it they could not live; but as soon as there is enough business to support one on the actual public need, another is built, and a second privileged corner asked for, and asit. is easier to make money in that corner, little or no attention is paid to the sesta the house; the legitimate ase and coixifort.,of a pub- lic house is lost sight of t` it_legitimate business drifts into` othhr isLaies as a sheer necessitiy, and them need of public houaeais imide a source of evil;instead of good.. - Huntingfi;eld. Mr. George Nichol, of the 2nd con. of Carrick, starts out this week framing, at Poterfield's. He is goingdown near Harriston. We hope he will be success- ful, as he is going among strangers. The most of. the farmers had started to plough but were prevented on Friday by the unexpected snow storm. We hope soon to be at the ploughing again. - Mr. Paul Doig, who has been very sick for this last week, we ars pleased to see, is much better. - Mr. John Doig is suffering with a sore shoulder, We hope it will be all right soon.
