Mr. John Howson, son of Citizen
James Howson, returned the other day
from the Notth-West. He has been in
that country for eight years and is just
its enthusiastic as the rest of them.
Part of the time he has been engaged
in the grain business. Part of the
time he has been located at Regina,
which, with the advantage of being
the Territorial capital and headquar-
ters of the Mounted Police, has apopu-
lation of only about twelve.hundred.
Apparently it is not the centre of the
most fertile belt in the West. Vast
sections of the Territories are just as
capable of raising groat crops of good
wheat as the garden of Manitoba.
This is what Mr. Howson claims and
he has been there long enough to speak
with no inconsiderable degree of know-
ledge of No. 1 hard and where it can
be profitably grown. Mr. Howson will
remain at the homestead for a while.
His trip is one of business and pleas-
ure combined.

Clintonians, for as the firm progresses
it, as a matter of course, adds to the
well-being of the town.

Clinton, Aug. 24th. tf
Hugh Cole, a former resident of Gode-
rich township and Clinton, and son of
Mr. Henry Cole, one of the pioneers,
of the township was killed in Flint,
Mich., on Saturday, the 18th inst.
The Flint News has this account of the
sad affair :—
About half -past ten o'clock Saturday
evening two men named George Lucas
and John Marks discovered the body of
Hugh Cole, of this city, on the tracks in
the F. & P. M. yards. He had been
run over by some train, but whether he
had tried to board the train and fallen
or just how he had met his death is un-
known.
Upon examination by Coroner Cady
his ribs were found to be broken, both
legs broken in two places, one hand
dragged off, law crushed and the scalp
badly cut. The remains were taken to
B. M. Garner's undertaking rooms and
the family of the unfortunate man in,
formed.
Hugh Cole was about 38 years old and
was born in Ontario, Canada. He has
been a resident of Flint for twenty
years and has usually been employed
about some of the livery stables in the
city. He was unmarried and both par-
ents died some years ago. He leaves
seven brothers, John, of Toronto, Peter,
of the firm of Cole & Cole, Norman, of
:Nicholson, N. Dakota, Angus, of Wayne,
Charles, of Chicago, Archie, employed
at the wagon works, and Will, who is a
foreman at the wagon works, besides
one sister, Mrs, J. C. Cole, of Flint.
The funeral took place from his brother
William's residence on Smith street.

JI (Modern Departmental Store. 1
The undersigned beg to announce that on the
first day of September next the firm of Jackson &
Jackson will be consolidated with our present busi-
ness, and that the big stock of Boots and Shoes will
be removed to ou_ big store and the whole estab-
lishment conducted upon departmental principles.
Methods of doing business during the past few years
have changed very much, and the days of big pro•
fits have disappeared. The modern method of do-
ing business is a large turn -over of goods at a small
profit and close figuring on the question of expenses.
In connection with the latter item, we will save
hundreds of dollars yearly by the clang. which we
are making, and we will be able to offer Boots and
Shoes
TEN TO FIFTEES•I PER CENT.. CHEAPER
than any other house. Next week's paper will con-
tain some startling information in
prices in this department.
reference to our
Our Mr. Fred. T. Jackson will still be the
Manager of this line, and for the coming season's
trade he will have a -selection of fine goods that'will
not be equalled outside the cities.
Our reputation for carrying reliable lines will
still be kept up, and we will not lose it by trying
to sell trashy goods at low prices.
We have also accepted the agency for "Slater"
Shoes at $3, $4 and $5, and our assortment of these
fine goods will not he equalled outside the larger
centres of the trade, A great demand has arisen
for these fine goods, and it is an acknowledged fact
that they are the best goody in Canada.
Next week they will be placed on sale, and
from the numbers who are waiting to make a selec-
tion we are bound to have a rush.
From week to week we will have some im-
portant announcements to make about this new
department, and to keen buyers of Boots and Shoes,
who are obliged to figure close, they will be especial-
ly interesting.
