VIGOROUS TALK.—The Methodist
Advocate preaches the following lit-
tle sermon, which contains volumes
of truth :—Just at this time our
country needs a religion that will
make a man pay his debts. Shout -
don't settle old accounts with God
and man. We want to pounce right
on a fellow, and put him out of the
church, if he goes to a ball or thea-
tre, but never say a word to a pious
scamp who never pays his debts.
Preachers and people who never pay
their debts are doing the church
more harm than dancers or drunk
ards, for they are more in the
church. Then lay this down and go
and pay up, and you can read on
at ease. And don't stop paying be-
cause the statute of limitations' ex-
cuses the open account which you
made for bread and meat. You
must pay for it in cash, or God will
make you pay for it in fire and
brimstone. God knows no such ex-
cuse as 'homestead exemption.'
When you raise that excuse to keep
from paying your debts, you can
stop singing, 'whoa I can read my
title clear.' You've got none up
there.
HURON CENTRAL FAIR
IN FULL BLAST.
The total entries this year ap-
proximate 3000, and are from 500
to G00 greater than last year
which' exceeded any previous year.
Monday was gorgeously redolent
of sunshine and heat outside. In-
side the officers directors and assis•
tants made the building handsomely
resplendent with art paintings, flow-
er exhibits, fountain, music by the
Doherty Baud, etc., etc. Tuesday,
as we write, the Indian Chippewa
Band has paraded the streets and
discoursed music that would have
made every hair in the scalp locks
of their aboriginal sires dance jigs
on the green with as merry glee as
ever the owners responded to war
whoop and dance of warrior chiefs.
Straggling members:of the voco-
phone baud varied the discordance
of sweet sounds. Youths on
horseback who will take part
in the horse parade are canter-
ing about towts like veritable Gen-
tnili'e, And the excitement in-
creases in spite of somewhat raw
and gusty weather. Teams laden
with living humanity are arriving.
The sidewalks and crossings are
alive with young ladies and young
men. Exhibitors and visitors ar e
flocking to the fair grounds. Men,
women and children are delighted
with what they have heard and seen
so far and seem buoyant with hopes
and radiant with anticipation of
enjoyment of the pictured de-
lights described in the pro-
grammes which many of them
are perusing. Occasional, but
as yet reluctant gleams of coy sun-
shine, help to augment the rays of
human sunshine evolved from the
countenances of the hundreds of
people who line the streets. The
great aggregation of men and horses
under the official command of Field
Marshal Wheatley and General
Welsh now iu battle array, in dou-
ble column, show interested specta-
tors the grandest combination on
earth—a parade of West Huron
young men and horses ; were there
only lady riders as well as male, I
then it would have been greater
than the greatest. However, every
imperfection has its silver lining
and as the young ladies are looking
on, their presence, thouo'n not on
horseback, is "enraging. This

BURGLARIOUS EPIDEMIC.
BURGLARS AT RLYTH.
Blyth village was thrown into
quite a state of excitement Saturday
morning upon learning that about
1.30 a. m. three crooks had attempt-
ed to burglarize F. Metcalf's jewelry
store. Constable Davies, who is also
employed as night watchman by the
town, got on to their little genie and
caught them in the act of forcing the
front door. They made a very des
termrned attempt to escape, but
Davis succeeded in securing the
trio. Too much praise cannot be
given to Constable Davies for his
pluck in capturing the three single
handed. The trio appeared before
Magistrates Young and Hamilton
same morning, and gave their names
as James Roberts, Goderich ; Thos.
Morris, \y'indsor ; and George Tay-
lor, Hamilton. They were remand-
ed until Monday niorning and sent
up to Goderich jail. 'l'hey are a
hard•looking lot.

LAWBREAKERS AT LUCKNOW.
The story of a very bravo arrest
of three housebreakers COMPS from
L,y..kltow. Night Watchman Woods
suns on jiff rounds nn Friday night
when he came on three men engag-
ed in breaking into nue of the prin-
cipal stores. Woods wears boots
with noiseless soles, and had his
hands on two of the men before
they saw him. He fitted the hand-
cuffs on them, and the third man,
who had been inside the building,
rushed at Woods with a big knife,
The plucky officer promptly knock-
ed him down, hut while engaged in
securing burglar No. 3, the other
two men started to run away.
Woods drew his revolver and fired,
the shot corning so clrely to them
that they gave up and stood still.
Woods was thus enabled to secure
all three of the crooks, and by this
time they are safely lodged in jail.

Donald was disturbed by a slight
noise under a toilet table in her
room, and, thinking it was a mouse,
fired a pillow in that direction to
scare the animal away. Imagine
her amazement and terror to see a
man jump from under the table,
with the pillow in one band and a
reyolver in the other. The villain
made straight for Miss McDonald,
who sprang up and kuoaked the re-
volver out of his hand and grappled
with him: The chairs, tables, lamps,
etc., were turned upside down, but
still Miss McDonald never lost her
nerve. The brute got Miss McDon•
ald by the throat and pounded her
unmercifully for a time, but it did
not have the desired effect, so lie
bolted downstairs, hut was met. at
the door by a servant girl, who was
not anxious for an acquaintance, and
he passed on. Both Miss McDon-
ald and the girl recognized the scoun-
drel as a young man who had pre-
viously worked for Mr. McDonald.
Harry Gale, the young man in
question, was captured at Madrid,
N. Y., and brought to Morrisburg.
A preliminary investigation was
held before Police Magistrate Logan,
when Gala confessed everything and

her that the cry came from her little
daughter, and the thought of the child

The child was terribly burned, about the
