Owing to the large number of married people who, after getting divorces iu the United States, cross over to Cana.la to be united in wedlock, the General Synod of the Anglican Church, which met at Que- bec, has decided that no marriaces be- tween persons who have previously been divorced will be solemnized in their Church in Causda. EUlie, the 12-year old son 'lif Mr. Janie'* Stiiison of the Toronto Iine,had an unp eiisant experience while driving out â-  )f town on Thursday evening last, in a cart. The atiinial, a spirited beast, got beyond bis control, and in descending a hill collided with a bugcy driven by Mr. L»f»\ otte Badgerow. The wheel of the cart caught on the inside of tho buggy wheels and threw the cart over, landing Eddie in the ditch. Both buggy and cart were dam.iged but no one was ser- iously injured. Priceville and Flesherton lootball clubs played a match on the Agricultural grounds here Friday evening last. There were some discordant notes struck during the game, and some of tho young men are credited witli rather rough conduct. The score stood 1 to in f.nvor of Price- ville. Mr. Peter McArtlmr of Pricoville was an impartial and satisfactory referee. Tho Owen Sound papers say a syndi- cate of temporence men have purchased the Queen's hntoland Seldmi House there with a view to running them on temper- ance hues. The company has a capital stock of S75,000, with 1500 shares of SiiO each. As the Sun understaiuls it, tho purpose (.>f the ccmpiiny is not only to cut off two hotel licenses, but to demonstrate that a hotel property can be pnifitably conducted without a bar. Tho well known argument of hotel keepers that "a temperance hotel won't pay" is to be put to a test. As a matter of fact tho so called temperance hotels about the country are itot the most desirablo class, it often being the case that a hotelkeeper with accouKdstion not sufficient, to bold a license, runs his one horse property as a temperance hotel, and makes a puuc showing. On the other hand temperance houf-es run properly have bean profitable. It is the intention of the new company to conduct their hotels on strictly Krst class lines. > n ei I * Convention Call At a recent meeting of the Executive ot Centre Qrey Prohibition Alliance it was decided to hold a convention in Flesherton on Monday, Oct. 2, 1905. A session will be held in the town hall at 2 p.m. for the transaction of import- ant businessâ€" electing of officers and per- fecting the organization. At 7.30 a maas meeting will bo held in the Presbyterian church. Rev. B. J. 8pence of T'>ronto, I) •f|»«neiice4 or^ai)izer and 4 y»tj powerful placfiirin speaker, will be present for the day. In uiew nf the agi lation for local option legislation it is very necessary that these should be a large and represRotative attendance at the convention. Every church, every christian org-iniziition, every temperance society, is earnestly requested to send as many delegates as possible, and every friend of probibtiion is invited to attend. Held Up by a Highwayman Fred Graham, sou of Mr. George Graham of the Valley, was held up by a bold highwayman on Saturday night week, while ou his way home from Fimberley. The young man had deliv- ered two loads of lumber that ti.iy, for which he had be n paid. After making some small purchiists he put the balnnce of the roll in his boot for safe (iarria;;e. This be did because ho had seen a sus- picious character earlier in tho day in a piece of bush opposite John Weber's, and thought it best to carry his money in a safe place. Subse<iueat events proved the wisdom of this precaution. It was quite dark when he entered this piece of bush and he had not gone far when he was commanded to stop and a pistol placed at his head. Graham was jerked off the wagon and all his pockets rifled while the gun was still held at hi» head. The highwayman did not succend in finding anything of value and after making what he thought was * thorough search, let the young man pioceed on his homeward journey, and disappeared. Graham carries a good watch, but as it had a broken crystil he left it at home on that particular day. The highwayman only spoke a couple of times during the operation, and it is supposed he is a stranger ua suspicious characters had been seen around. Graham can give no description of his aasailaob other than that he was a tall man and wore a fuzzy overcoat. This fact was accidentally learned by his hand touching the coat. Young Gmham got off more fortunately than most people who are held up. Ha kept his nerve until be got home, a couple of miles away (which, by the way did not take him lon^), and then he is said to have collapsed. As he is only about 18 yoar-s of age ho succeeded re- markably well iu cuming through tho ordeal as he d^ii, unscathed and without losing the wad which he so lhe«wlitfiilly hid away in bis boot.
