A 3,000 Mile Telephone Call. -Rev, H. C. Dunsmore, D.D., of Indepen- dence Oregon, who has been visiting his sister, Mrs. Carnochan, and other friends in Isuckersmith, has estab- lished a new record for long distance telephoning for Western Ontario. While in Sarnia a week ago he asked the city exchange if he could put a call through to his daughter in Ore- gon and was told that they would try, although no call of such a dis- tance had ever been put through be- fore. That was about nine o'clock in the evening and an hour later he was told the call had gone through as far as Ohicago, and at twelve o'clock he had his daughter on the phone, and carried on a seven -minute conversa- tion with her over the intervening 3,000 miles, which could be heard as distinctly as if she had been in the neljoing block. The call cost the doc- 'tor $3.25, but he said the sound of a home voice was worth five times the price.

C., on Saturday, November 26th. He had been ill for about three weeks and the immediate cause of his death was imeumonia, but the particulars have not yet been received. Mr. Robb was the second son of the late Hugh Robb of Harpurhey, and was born in Scot- land. coming to this country when a child. For a number of years he was employed with Me D. D. Wilson, and later resided for several years in the Western States. Returning to Can- fle he made Seaforth his home while travelling for a grocery firm and later opened a grocery store on Main Street in the premises now occupied by Mrs. J. E. Willis, which he con- ducted for several years. Eighteen years ago he removed to the West and before going to Vancouver two years ago had resided in Lloydinin- ster and Edmonton. In 1882 he was united in marriage to Miss Sarah Richardson, daughter of the late Wal- ter Richardson, of Seaforth, who sur- vives him, together with one daugh- ter, Mrs. F. S.

A. llcLACHLAN, PrintipaL •Te Death of TwAPormer Residents. - The remains of the late Jahn Fowler, who died at Souris, Manitoba, of heart failure, arrived here on Thursday last accompanied by his wife and young- est daughter, and were taken to the home of his brother, Mr. Herbert Fowler, Huron Road, from where the funeral was held on Saturday to the Mattlandbank cemetery. Mr. Fowler was a son of the late Frank Fowler, and resided on Goderich street west, for a number of years, and was wide- ly known in this district as a horse buyer. About twenty years ago he removed to the West, where he had extensive real estate holdings. He was sinty-seven years of age, and is survived by his wife and three dough - tees, all of whom reside in the West., -Mr. Robert Richardson died at the 'home of his son, near Battleford, Sask., on November 20th, in his 78t1s year. Be was well known here, hav- ing been an employee of Mr. D. D. Wilson for a number of years. Fifty years ago Mr. Richardson was united in marriage to Miss Christina Little, sister of Messrs. Samuel and Andrew Little, of this town, -and tweety-five years ago the family removed to Walkerton. After a short time spent in Walkerton they moved to Toronto where they resided until two years ago, 'hen Mr. Richardson went to reside with his son in the West. He is survived by his wife, one sort and two daughters, Walter and Mrs. Jahn Piercy, at Battleford, and Misi Belle Richardson on the sbaff of the To- ronto Normal School. The remains were brought east for interment, the funeral taking' place at Ayr on Tues- day. Delayed Mail -the Cause and the Remedy. ---Whenever delay to or mis- delivery of a letter occurs, the sender or the addressee is prone to adverse- ly criticize the post offices. .Frequent- ly, however. the delay or misdelivery is due to [the carelessness of the public in failing to properly address their mail. During three days this month 128,300 pieces of incorrectly and insufficiently addressed mail anat.- ter were handled at fifty-five. of the larger post offices. •ffhis is a daily average of 42,800 for the fifty-five offices, or at the rate of 16,000,000 a year. Think pf the number of postal clerks engaged in handling this mis- directed mail and who could, if the general public were more careful, be used to give better service in other lines of post office work. Much trou- ble is due to careless vrribing, to the use of a pencil in writing the address and failure to give the peeper street address. With the Christmas season at band, bringing immense quantities of mail to be dealt with, it will be necessary that the public adopt more careful methods in the preparation of its mail matter if the daily aver- age of misdirected mail is not to mount to an overwhelming figure. In this connection the following points are to be observed. Prepay postage fully; address plainly andlully; place name and address of sender on all mail matter; carefully pack and wrap all 'articles sent by parcel post, but do not seal the parcel, as sealed par- cels go at letter rate; mall Christmas parcels early; insure all valuable parcels.
