The severe weather has greatly injured many of the trees, and the latest danger is a plague of field mice., These are damaging the bark of the fruit trees, eating it away from the ground up, and they are destroying the trees. 90 per cent. of Pat Cattle exhibited et Provincial Winter Fair, 1903, wore fed with Worthington's Canadian Stock Tonic.

Maxwell Ottawa, March 9.—Enquiry here shows that the Ontario Government has already made an informal application to the Dominion authorities for a Fed- eral subsidy of $3,200 a mile towards the Temiekaming and Northern Rail- way. The request was considered here, and it is learned that it has been prac- tically refused, on the ground that it would be a dangerous precedent to es- tablish, and that if the Dominion did so much for the richest Province in the Confederation, it could not well resist the demands of smaller Provinces for financial aid in various forms from the national purse. If the Province felt that the venture was proving too big a tax on its resources, and handed it over to a private company, the Federal authorities might then consider the ad- visability of voting assistance.

The jury sittings Of the High Court of Justice opened at 3 othe'clock on Mon- day afternoon before the Honorable Mr. -Justice Teetzel with thirteen civil issues on the docket, There was also the criminal case, King vs, Thomas Sherritt, for assault alleged to have been committed on bis wife, and con- sequently a grand jury had been sum - mowed, This case, it will be remember- ed, was sent up for trial by Magistrate Humber. The jury chose. G. W. Thom- son as foreman and returned a true bill in this case, Mr. Sherritt pleaded "not guilty" to the indictment. Following the general practice and in view of the number of civil Cases to be tried His Lordship put off the trial till the general sessions of the County Court in June and Mr. Sherritt was let go on the, same bail as before, $5,000, Shobbrook vs. Granger—An action for slander. The jury retired at 11 a.m., and returned at 11.80. On their finding His Lordship directed judgment to be enter- ed for plaintiff for $100 and costs on the high court scale. The plaintiff in the action is a lad of thirteen, who took action through his father, a farmer in Hullett. The' defendant was John Granger, who, admitting that he made the alleged statements, made his de- fence the plea that the statements were true. One of the witnesses for the de- fence was a little girl of six and owing to doubt as. to her capacity to under- stand the nature of an oath His Lord- ship did not allow her evidence. Thomson et al. vs, Robertson.—An action to prove the will of the late John Robertson ,in solemn form. By con- sent His Lordship directed that judg- ment be entered for the plaintiffs de- oreeing probate of the will of the late John Robertson in solemn form and dis- charging the caveat lodged by the de- fendant. Costs of the action to be paid by the defendant to the plaintiffs, the executors, said costs also to include the costs of examinations of parties for discovery. Dykes vs. Rannie—An action for malicious prosecution. The plaintiff is a spectacle and patent medicine ven- dor who was arrestedby Constable West- cott on suspicion of the theft of. a gold watch belonging to Mrs. Rennie at Hen - sail, the defendant being Mr. Rannie, on whose information the arrest was made. The questions as to whether the facts justified the arrest being made or whether they showed legal malice on the part of the defendant and what the amount of damages, if any, should be were referred to the jury by His Lord- ship and they took only five minutes to answer them. In accordance with their answers His Lordship directed judg- ment to be entered against the plaintiff, dismissing the action with costs, includ- ing costs of examivations for discovery, and remarked that he had seldom wit- nessed such a speedy execution of justice. Steep vs Goderich Engine and Bicy- cle Co.—An action for breach of con- tract. The plaintiff in this case is Jas. Steep, of Clinton. whose patent for a disc coulter and shoe attachment for seed drills the defendant company ac- quired. The patents, the machine it- self and various parts, the agreement between the patentee and the defend- ants whereby the latter acquired the patent and agreed to manufacture the machine for the Canadian market, and a large amount of correspondence were put in as exhibits. Judgment has not vet been given, pending an attempt to arrive at a settlement between the parties. The case of Webster vs. Grand Trunk Railway Co,, was settled out of court, $500 damages being agreed upon, and a couple of other cases were settled. Fluker vs. Kennedy—Action for se- duction—postponed till next court. Warder 'vs. Bell—Action for damages for explosion of a boiler in Bluevale grist mill. Judgment reserved. Five carloads of exhibits from dif- ferent parts of Canada have arrived in St. Louis, for the World's Fair. .A. car of fruit has also been placed in cold storage awaiting shipment. The ex- hibits already arrived include the pink of Canada's agricultural, forest and min- eral wealth. The general polioy is to give prominence to the items of natural wealth peculiar to Canada, or rather those not found in the other countries making exhibits. For example, miner- als, Canada's almost exclusive' resources of nickel, corundum, chrome iron, peat, and asbestos, are to be featured. The displays will also be made. Sepa- rate pyramids of asbestos, mina and nickel are to be built and placed in prominent positions in the Canadian quarters. These pyramids will il- lustrate the processes the ores undergo in the transition from the oracle state to the finished product, The nickel pyramid is to be 20 feet in height. The ore, as turned out of the mine, will form the base, above it will be a section containing the nickel product after the roasting prooess, Above i t again will be a section containing the copper and nickel matte, and the apes of the pyra- mid will • bo finished hi the refined nickel. Surmounting the pyramid is r made of the retitled nickel to be a statue fin and truly Canadian in design.

Some houses are completely wrecked, others are out of plumb, while nearly every house in the territory is twisted to such an extent that the doors and windows cannot be opened. The cave-in was oaused by the settling of the surface over the diamond vein of the Bellevue colliery of the Delaware, Lackawanna, and Western Company. In many places the depression is from three to four feet below the surface. —One of the most distressing incidents connected with the latest storm occurr- ed on the Owen Sound branch of the Canadian Pacific Railway. A train was 26 hours making the run from Owen Sound to Toronto, and most of that time was stuck fast in a drift near Orangeville Junction. The engine was uncoupled from the train, and this left the passengers dependent on the fire from a coal stovo which, when first started, filled the oar with, gas and smoke, and necessitated the opening of the windows. The passengers had to start out from the stalled train after dark in search of provisions. At one fart. house they were mistaken for tramps and denied admittance, but at another they secured several loaves of bread and a can of honey. Eventually thegOrange. iii t r made his wayto nc c o t ville, being slightly frozen on the way, and returned with a snowplow and a hamper of sandwiches. I _ . To Break Up A Cold A. H.
