Mrs. Smith, wife of 0. C. Smith, a lead- ing business man, of Blank River, was in• atantly killed this morning by a yard en- gine on the Detroit tk Maokivaw Railway. .Mrs. Smith was riding to the etetiou on her bioycle to oatoll a south -bound passenger train. The long tank reaching on the rear of the engine caught the rear wheel of her bicycle, throwing her back under the engine, whioh passed oyer her, terribly mangling her. The ecene of the accident is only a few rode from the depot and the horrible aocident was witnessed by the passengers of the train, among ,vhom were her husband, who was going on the train with her but had gone ahead on some business. She leaves five small children. Commercial Notes. James Connolly. of Goderich township, at- tended the London Cheese Market on Satur- day, but the unsettled state of the market in- duced representatives to hold on, and not one solitary sale was effected. Four years ago the crop of Manitoba was seventeen million bushels For this year it was officially estimated that the crop will ho fifty million bushels. Manitoba and the Northwest should make great progress from this out. The Modern Miller says : There is no appar- ent change in the condition of winter wheat crop and the outlook for a phenomenal yield still continues, Harvesting is on throughout Texas and Southern Missouri will be in line the corning week. Tho Grand Trunk Railway is at present los- ing more than £500o per week, owing to the war of rates, of which £8600 is from "local cats." When rates are restored. as they may be atanyr moment ow, there will e 0 1 be a great b jump in the figures of the weekly traffics. -- One does not hear much of Manitoba as a mining province in these days of the Koote- nay and Klondike, but the following figures from the report of the Interior Department are interesting: During tho last fiscal year 825 entries were made for mining locations other than coal in Manitoba and the North - we r North- west e itori• ise th r o than the Yukon. l' to the 1st of February of this year 3,337 placer claims 05 quartz claims and two hill claims in the Yukon district were recorded; and that the fees collected amounted to 187,103.4-l. '1`h Orange The 0 u be Judd Farmer report for June makes winter wheat area25,651,090 acres, after allowing 1,000,0)0 ,bandoned in California. Spring wheat shows radical increase in acre- age everywhere, the total reaching 17,8618,000 acres. Present n 0 of winter wheat 90 7 against 87.9 last month ono 8;1.5 last year. Spring wheat condition practically perfect, with an average of 90.1, which is the highest figure ever reported on Juno 1 by any reliable authority. Situation in Oregon and `Washing- ton is enough better than last year practical- ly to offset the loss in California. A conser- vative authority figures outa possible surplus of wheat on the Pacific Coast of about 200,000 tons for export, dependent, of course, upon the carry-over stock, pub- lic will be made pub- lic so. Within two wo years Oklahoma has come to the Iront as one of the great wheat districts, Prior to 1896 the crop of that terri- tory was not large enough to bring it into the ranks of districts closely scanned by crop ob- servers. Last year there wasa sudden enlarge- ment of acreage, and the territory was erect• ited with an area of about 890,000 acres. This season the area exceeds 1,000,00) acres, with a present prospect of contributing 90,08)0 bushels to the world's wheat supply. 'l;8) `he same marvellous extension of wheat growing during the sante time is noted in Texas and Southern Kansas. Lust year, with an area of 4,000,000 acres, these three states were credited with growing 85,0x),08) bushels. This year the sameterritory has at least 5,500,00e acres to harvest, with at this time eve, y prospect of duplicating last years extraordinary yields, and furnishing more than 1H oeitoo,bushels of grain.

The•revenue of the Lumieion fat the last eleven months is $1,120,000 greater than for the oorreeponding period of the previous fiscal year, The late °Inductor Snider was well known in Huron. The little book, publish- ed by Wil iron Briggs, containing an ac- count of his life and work, has been com• piled by Rev. D. W. Snider, with an intro- duotiou by Rev. W. S. Griffin. There aro tributes from Conductor Snider's old friends `on the railway and from miniet•era and oth- ers whaendoreed hie evangelisti•: work; also a report of his celebrated "railway sermon" and his lecture on 'Lite'on the Rail, and the People You Meet." The Ottawa Citizen gives currency to the rumor that Sir W. R. Meredith is so dissatisfied with his remuneration of $6,000 a year that he is about to re- t ire e"tire from the Chief Justiceship , f the Common Pleas Division of the High Court. It thinks he could easiiy count on $10,000 a year in pr•i` ate law prat• Lice, and states rant ne coporatiun counsel for the city of Toronto he was in receipt of a salary of $13,500 a van, when he was called to I I).• bench, The rumor may or may not he founded in true h. Doubtless some lawyers enjoy Lunge incomes, but there is a good deal of either romance or outrage in some of the tales told. As to Sir W. R. Meredith's case he gets $6,000 clear above $1,600 circuit allowance—a very liberal one it will be conceded. He hes no trouble hunting for clients, no ex- pensive office, assistants and law lib - r etc. to maintain. In his Toron- t erth he had to pay out a consider- i¢e percentage of his gross income. We don't think he is underpaid at l0,000 plus $1,600 a year. A. Wee Nminim— "The Canadian Heroes of the War of 1812-14" is the leading article in the June number of the Canadian Mag- azine. Sir John G. Bou inot is the writer, and be tells with much grace and spirit the story of Brock, de Salaberry, Tecumseh, Laura Secord, and the others who took a leading part in the noble defence of Canada in that famous war. Pictures of most of the heroes accompanying the text. Captain William Wood, of Quebec, tells of Canada's military weakness in an article entitled `•In Case of War." Another Canadian officer writes of "Warships and War," and his contribution is illustrated with pictures of well.known British andU nited Stateswar- ships. This writer explains the difference between a cruiser and a battleship, a torpe- do destroyer and a torpedo boat, a monitor and an arm oared cruiser ora battleship, clearing up many of the current mysteries which obscure this subject. Another timely article is that on Mr. Gladstone, with seven illustrations, includingfull-page re a repro- duction p duction of Millais' famous painting of the deceased statesman. Besides these articles, there are several short stories, a review of ono of the leading poete, four pages of com- ment and cartoons from the newspapers, arid several pages on foreign affairs and books. The frontispiece is a good picture of the late D'Alton McCarthy, Q. . M. P. Altogether the number is certainly the most attractive and valuable of recent issues. rt,etu Aduel'tfseuxeuto.
