H. OaOPB ABD THE WEATHEK. E«U«t About Manltubit'a Wheatâ€" A Bever* Froat Down Kiutâ€" I'otatoe* • " Drue" in W«at*rB Ontsrio. A Montreal despatch says : Mr. Dancan Mclntyre, the well-known railway capital- ist, retaraed from a trip to Manitoba to- day- Bpeakiog of the harvest outlook, he •aid thut be bad seen the crops of Morden and Gretna marketed- They realized 80 cents per bushel. They were sound, and Mr. Muliityrewas satistted that if the cropu in Manitoba and the Territories were mar- keted before there was anv drop in the prices the farmers would reafizeSO percent, more money than last year. There would have to be an allowanoe made, Mr. Moln- tyro said, for considerable damage to wheat raised alonf> the Manitoba A Southwestern, as well as along the Monitoba A North- western. The main lino of the Canadian Pacitio from Poplar Point to Moose Jaw was comparatively free from frost- The districts that suffered most were those in the south and north, and the low lying lands and gelds with a northern exposure. Strange to say, most of the damage was done on the Bouthwostern lines, contiguoua to Dakota. There was no damage to the barley crop, which had been largely secured. The oat crop on the main line of the Cana' dian Pacific and the Manitoba & North- western was very heavy, un'l had not suf. tend from frost. Private orders received today by one of the largest grain firms here, from their agents in Manitoba, state that about 50 per cant, of the entire crop has been gathered. Of this 25 per cent, is stated to be rusted, and 40 per cent frosted, leariog only 35 per cent., or half of the entire crop, in good condition. Of the crop yet uncut 85 per cent, is reported to be still green and unfit for gathering for a week or two. Of oourao these figures are not official. The price of wheat continues to advance very fast here. The weather throughout Manitoba and the Northwest was fine yesterday. Bpicial weather bulletins showed that the tempera- ture at 7 a- m. was as follows at these points : 45 degrees above /.ero at Calgary ; 45 above at Medicine Hat ; 51 above at Bwitt Current ; 5a above at Mossejaw ; 48 above at Broailview and 65 above at Winnipeg. Mr. T. C. Irving, of Jirailstreet't reoeivod yesterday afternoon a despatch from their Winnipeg office to the enect that reports regarding the crops are conllicting; that no data is obtainable for true figures. The actual loss, however, will not probably exceed 'J5 i>er cent, of the entire wheat yield. The barley and oat crop ftre practically uninjured. Now wheat is selling at Oak Lake, Man., at Hac. per bushel. Potatoes are so plentiful in South Essex, that it is dilhcnlt to obtain a market fur them at any price. Mr. P. It. Daly, of Dclleville, says the heavy frost the other night did considerable damage in this section. Back north, he says, ice was formed on the water and with another cold blast the fall pasture would be mined. The corn and buckwheat crop has been badly injured by the frost as well. A UlU WHKATMAI.K. A Mllltun Bnaheli Hold all at Once. A Chicago despatch says: Jjoopold Bloom anil It. P. Hutchison gave the Board of Trade men something akin to an electric shock to-day when Bloom sold 1 ,000,000 busliels of December wheat to "Old Uutcb " at DC} cents- "Hutch" is short on December, and has been revering him- self up the best way he could for some time past. Frank Magin, one of the brokers, was buying this morning, and Bloom sold him a little- The market was strong at 9!>i cents, and it looked as it it might go a little higher- " 1 11 sell you a million December at US) cents," said Bloom. "I'll take it," said Magin quickly- The transaction involved nearly 81,000,000, and is one of the biggest individual operations on the record ot the board. " How about margins 7" some one asked. " I'll pot up 9260,000," said Bloom, and he bustled over aiul Bi>oke to "Hutoh" about it. "That's something that don't interest me," said the old man. " The Secretary's oifice is the place for that." But Bloom wasn't Hatistiod,aud he rushed down stairs and presently returned bring- ing with him stocks and other securities to the amount, so he said, of 9:100,000. These did not appear to particularly concern Mr. Hutchinson, however, and their owner carried tliem back to his (jflice. In the afternoon Bloom announced that both ho and Hutchison had put up S'i50,000. This was denied at " Hutch's" bank. A 8TBANUK 8TURV. AIIe(e<l Nulclde of m Horsa HaflTeilns from lllit«»li«e. A I'ort Jervis (N.Y.) telegram says: A remarkable stnryof the death of a horse by suicide is told by Peter Lamar, a reputable citizen of this town. Ho owned a hand- some brown mare, notably intelligent, kind and fast, for which he had refused 91,000. The mare was snffuring with a painful and fatal disease. One day last week two veterinary surgeons visited her and their treatment apparently augmented her pain. When she was turned loobO in the field where she was kept she immediately trotted off to a shallow stream of water, and wading into one ot the deepest pools she plunged her head under water and hold it there until she sank down, first upon her Uiieea and then uixin her sido and was drowned. Her owner insiHts that the sagscionsanimal knew what she was doing, and that it was a clear oase of suicide. KegMlnnd Her Hlglit. A Lookport, N.

A last (Wednesday) night's Windsor despatch says : Yesterday afternoon bad blood, which has been existing between cer- tain of the town ofiicials, culminated in a row and (wo fights, commencing before the Town Hall and ending in the oflice ot Waterworks Clerk lieed. The principals were Aid. Davis, his son Fred and Water works Engineer Hall. The Fire, Water and Gas Committee of the Council had met for the purpose of testing a new fire alarm system, to witness wliich the engineer thought he shonid have been specially invited by the Chairman of the committee. Aid. Davie. He accused Davis of wilful diaconrteay toward him, telling him beflides, that while he had intentionally omitted inviting him (the engineer) to witness tho testing, he (the chairman) bad invited his own BOD to be present without having obtained the permission of his fellow com mitteemen. Young Davis hereupon called Hall a liar, and on the latter'a retorting began the first fight by striking Hall a tor rifle fist blow on the left eye. Hall struck back and for a minute or two a vigorona round was fought. Aid. Kgan and Drake separated the contestants with the help of Chief Baines. Y'oung Davis went away and hia father, the alderman, went into the wiiterworka oifice and sat down at the desk, while Kngineer Hall was led away to have his damaged face attended to. 'This last accomplished. Hall returned and going into the waterworks office immediately began fighting with the alderman. Hall was making it quite lively for the former when peace- makers again appeared and put a stop to the second fight. Both oppouents were bleeding quite freely. It is expected that Police Court suits will grow out of the fight. The testing of the fire alarm system was postponed till to-morrow afternoon. TO MAKKY A CHINAMAN. A Beautirul Ilrmiklyu Helreas Fall* In Love with aCeleetlial. A Now York telegram says : Brooklyn bobs up a second time within a year with (he betrothal of an accomplished American young lady to a Chinaman. The marriage a year ago was between Jn Sing, a Chinese niiasionary, and a wealthy middle-aged lady residing on the hill. They appear very happy. The parties to tho present alliance am Thomas Bowe and Miss Annie Tuttle, who resides with her sisters and a widowed mother on Gates avenue- Eight years ago Tom came to Brooklyn and opened a laundry. He prospered, saved money rapidly, bsgan to turn bis thoughts (0 religion, dovo(ed himself to the study of the English language, and joined the Chinese mission. 'Two years ago he booame a member of the Moravian Church, Kev. Dr. Edward Walle, pastor. Bowo's influence among his heathen brethren grew, and ha became a power in the Church. Ho gave up his laundry business and became a mis- sionary. At Sunday school Bawe met Miss Tattle. The young lady took a great lo. terest in the proselyte, and they evinced a fondnisa for being together. Miss Tuttle is a member ot a wealthy Brooklyn family. Her father has been dead some years. The young lady was provided with every luxury and comfort. When Mrs. Tnttlu was in- formed of the daughter's infatuation thero was a scene. Thi^viotber pleaded and the sisters implored, but all in vain. Annie turned a deaf ear and said she would marry tho (!hinaman in spite of all. Bowe is studying to enter the ministry and then go to China as a missionary. The nuptials will bo celebrated before the departure. Miss Tuttle is of medium stature, petito, with golden brown hair, and 26 years old. She has long been a prominent member of Dr. (Jliamberlain's Presbyteriao Ghurob.

An Ottawa despatch says : The little village of New Kdinboro' is in a high state ot excitement to. night over the sudden collapse of a wedding whioh was to have taken place in Ht. Bartholomew's Church this evening between Uov. Ware Ami, pastor of the French Presbyterian Church, and Mrs. Graburn, widow of the late ('aptain Graburn, of (be Marino Depart- ment. The engagement of the couple, both of whom are well on in middle life, was announced some time ago and was strongly opposed by the friends of the clergyman, who, for a while, resisted the pressiiro ; but it is said that when ho was ofiioially informed that hia marriage would not only result in his losing his living here but in his being expelled from the Presbyterian Churnh he gave in and one of thiaevening's papers announced that he has left ou a visit to France. This, howover, does not appear to have been known to the bride and her friends who assembled at the church, and great indignation was expressed when it was found that the prospective groom had changed his mind at the last minute. Legal proceed- ings are spoken of. Caught It From His Cattle. A Lancaster, Pa., despatoh says : Henry Stehnian, a prominent farmer of Conestoga TuwiiHliip, has died from splenic fever, con- tracted from his cattle. Dr. M. li. Davis, assisted by a number ot physiciiuis, made a post mortem examination and the oondi- tioii of the liver and spleen confirmed their previous impression.

A Uucer Sequel lu a Bal4 by the " Bebs ' Twentj-Fonr Tears Ago, A Philadelphia despatch says : An unusual wedding ceremoay was performed here to-day. About it was an echo of the great civil war. Tbo contracting parties were Dr. Frederick Ward Saunders, of York, Pa., and his bride of twenty. four years ago, the mother of his children. This couple had lived together for twenty-four years in the relation of man and wife and reared a family, but the evidence of their having been legally married was destroyed, and so after all these years they were again married to-day. Ou June 23rd, 1804, Dr Saunders was married in York, Pa-, to Miss Ellen Belle Loy. Just after the ceremony the reba raided the town and pillaged Dr Saunders' houae, among others. Among the things caraied off was the Doctor's " marriage lines," and among the things desoroyed in York by the " liebs" were (he records of the church in which the doctor was ^married to Miss Loy. Bo every evidence of their being legally married was gone. For years they lived on together in different to this, but as their children grew up and their property increased, Dr. and Mrs Saunders suddenly name to the conclu- sion that for the sake ot their children and estate, and in view of qneationa ariaiag re garding to their property, they had better have a perfect record of their marriage, They came to the city and got a lioeose to marry from the licence clerk and were to- day again joined in the bonds of holy wed lock. ♦ A MABTYH MOTHER. Sad Fate of â-  Lad/ while SaTlng her Children. Mr. A. E. Wallace, of St. Thomas, re oeived a telegram yesterday announcing the sad death of Mrs. Wallace's sister, Jessie wife of Mr. J. Grant, of Winnipeg. The deceased, it appears, was the victim ot a heroic effort to save her children's lives, She must have upset a lamp, and her clothes igniting, she roshed to her three sleeping children, disregarding her own aufTerings. She awoke (hem and saw them to a place of safety. They tried to extin- guish the fiames. The youngest child narrowly escaped the mother's fate, for her night clothes were scorched. The parents of deceased reside in Acton. Mrs. Grant is known to quite a number ot citizens, having quite recently paid a visit to St. Thomas. Latest Norlhweat Newa. A Winnipeg despatoh says : It is antho ritatively announced that the running time on the St. Paul & Manitoba road between this city and St. Paul will be out down to 17 hours. Two hundred and twenty-five head of cattle from the Cochrane ranohe arrived here yesterday and were shipped on to Montreal to day. Gentlemen connected with the Manitoba iV N- W- road express ignorance aa to the roiiorts circulated here to the effect that the road in question is passing into the hands of the C.P.R. Mr. Biggs, the Win- ni[)eg lawyer who had (he drawing up of (he railway agreemen(s recently made, re- ceived a telegraphic summons to St. Paul today from the officials of the Manitoba road. This summons is taken as giving color to the reports now in ciroolation to the effect that the Manitoba road are pur- chasing or leasing the Emerson branch of tho C.P.K. with the view of competing for tho trade of this Province. lOdward I'apamakiss, Indian missionary, has arrived with four Indian assistants to attend the meeting of the General Board of Missions of tho Methodist Church, to be held on Monday next.

The heroes and heroines bronght ont by the epidemic are numbered by (he hundred. Instance after instance is recorded of the unehaking devotion of husbands, wives, sons, daughters and friends in the face of that most terrible of all scourges, yellow fever. While it has been very light here, so far, and the mortality small, yet the same dread is excited by the mere name ot " yellow jack." When Robert Grace, the brave watchman of the Subtropical fell ill he went immediately to Dr. Mitchell's office and stated hia case. The doctor diagnosed it. " You have yellow fever, said be " and you should go to the Band Hills at once, but you can go home and bid your wife good. by, if you desire first. The strong man grew faint a moment, (hen straightened up, and with a long breath said calmly, "No, I am ready to go at once. If I went home I might carry the deadly infection to my dear ones." He went to the hospital, obeyed the doctor'a moat minute ordera, and aa a result was dis charged two days ago. What an effort it must have cost him to see in his mind's eye the dread disease before him, and to tell its deadly clutch, and then fully realize that perhaps be might never aee those dear ones again ! Yet he marched bravely away to what, for all he knew meant death in a most horrible form in a short time. From the returns (o-night is seen that Mrs. Grace is down. Dr. SoUace Mitchell says that she emulated her husband's bravery and self-deuial- She was out nurs ing, and this afternoon she sent for Dr- Mitchell, and be found out that abe waa attacked by (be scourge and so imformed her- With a woman's heroism, she had him send for the ambulance aud went to the Sand Hills, sending a message of love and farewell (o her hosband.

Other instances are related where wives refused to leave tneir husband's bedsides thongh warned of their danger, and where a bos band presisted in watching by a sick wife until be was so reduced as to become an easy prey to the never satisfied scourge. Mrs. Hopkins, who died yesterday, was one of the brave "'omen who stood at their post. She was at the stamp window ot the post. office but a day before she waa taken til. The Iltrald correspondent paused at the window in his rounds, and seeing her cheer- tal face asked : " Aren't you going to leave (00, Mrs. Hopkins? " "No," said she decidedly. " My place is here, and I see no reason why I snould deBer( it " Miss Kidd, the telephone chief, remained at her post till the scourge seized her. While many others left their posts she, in company with three assistants, remained steadfast. From their position they heard of the thousand and more wild rumors dying about regarding the plague, but like good soldiers, they remained till stricken down, one by one, until now only one re- mains. The telegraphers, after the first exodus of scared operators, settled down to business and behaved like veterans; like wise the newspaper men, and many others in various branches of trade. Certainly the crop ot heroes and heroines is large, and Jacksonville abuold be proud of them. â- JackionvilU Cor. N. Â¥. ilâ€".'.^. Landlords In Scotland.

A lovely woman, a faithful daughter and kind sister, respected and beloved, commit- ted snicide one day last week, because her sister aged 20, was about to be married, while she, at tbe age of 30 had not the conrsge to face the world as an "old maid." Every day, with a man's courage and a woman's patience, says an exchange, she had taken up the petty burdens and cares of life that it might be easier to those she loved. And yet in retnrn she waa lightly, thooghtleaaly spoken of aa an old maid. Y'ot the old maids of the world are like the salt which giveth savor.
