Dr. Scott, of Trinity I tet'fo- dist oeuroh, preaohed his farewell sermon last night. He leaves for Japan within a few weeks to take charge of the Metho- dist College in Tokio. A singular ooin- otdenee is that Mr. Scott began his min- istry on the first Sunday In July, 1868, in the same church, and, as he is no longer a Methodist minister, he has ended it there, atter exactly eighteen years in the work in Canada.

A Boy Sent to the Reformatory --Drowning Accident --Narrow Escape From Death by Poison. Chatham, Ont., June 99.—,Before Judge Houston •to -day Joseph Wilson, an incorrigible lad of 18, who has been before the court so many times on the charge of larceny that he is thought to be a kleptomaniac, was convicted of stealing, and sentenced to the reforma- tory for three years.

Windsor, Ont., June 29,—At Kings- ville yesterday a young man named Wm. Vickers met with a serious accident which may cost him the sight of both &es. He had loaded up a pieoe of gas pipe with gunpowder for some purpose as yet unexplained, and then introduced a lighted match to one end. The explosion which followed was terrific. Young Vickers wan picked up half insensible, with his face and hands badly burned, and both eyes completely closed. The doctors think one eye can be savesi, but the sight of the other is entirely gone. There is a rumor current here to the effect that the Dominion Typograph works will at an early date transfer Its extensive plant to Brantford. No con- firmation of the report has yet been beard, but It is significant that the com- pany, whioh also manufactures a high brade bloyole, has for some time pant een reducing its working force. On Saturday last, ten more men were laid off, leaving only about forty-five at work, where there were more than one hundred on the pay roll of the company last winter. Should the company decide to remove Windsor would suffer an inoaieul- able monetary loss. THE FOREST CITY.
