He has recevied the position of privato secretary to the Minister of Justice. If not tiKi late we would like to add our c<'ngrutulatioos to those of his otlnr friends. Tlie brave soldior boys returned home from Camp Niairara on Saturday after- iiwai, and after arrival had luncheon at the arai'Ty. The boys s;iy they never hiid » more enjoyable outing. On arrival at Niagara they wore »war\le<l a salute ftoua the U. S. fort across the river and again when they were leaving. The fra- ternal feeling was very marked this year and thoae who paid a visit acroa* the lioM were banqueted and h«^ he fr<>f- jJoaioitJbe country. Rev. D. C. McDowell, weU known in Fleahertoo, where he waa stationed tome years ago, died at his home in Buwman- ville on Sunday after a brief illness, aged 75 years. Hia w:dow and seven children survive him. The children are Dr. E. C. McDow. 11, Norway, Mich. ; F. M. Mc- Dowell, Tomato ; Mrs. Rev. J. J. Hare of Ontario Ladies' College, Whitby ; Mrs. T. B Hizginbothiini and Miss k. Mc- D.wtil, Bownianviile ; Mrs. Dr. Leitch, TofMuto ; .Mrs. T. C. NichoU, Uibrid^ie. Pv.-r. Joseph VVard, M.A.. B.D., occu- pied his pulpi: in the .MetLodist church, FWsh.Tton, on Sunday morning last, for the first time. Hi.n 3 rnion was founded on Ifit C'Tinrhians, ujil chapter and 21st and 22ad Ti-rsis, aud partook more of the i«-.ture of a talk fpim p.iator to pefiple, dralins with th-s relationships which should t-xLst l)Miwuen ifaetn. His remarks were very riiiifly and to g ixl taste We p; etlicc for .Mr. Ward a .successful pas- ta-rate and publicly w.lconie him auiobg na.

The famine in this article prevails ill C.mada and the United States. The World of a rec-nt date said tbrre will ke a sl'ortoge A at least 10.000 tons. The lital consumption in Canada is about 80,000 tuns, and the shortage for Mani toba and Ontario will be at least 2,000 ton.s. .^>;ents from the United States are said to have been through Canada picking up all they citn in tons and car-loads, and it i] more than likely that the price will go t» 25 or 30 cents in a few days. The Advance has much pleasure this week in welcoruirg Mr. T. J, Sbeppwrd aud family, recently of Tottenham, to town. Mr. Shcppard wU! be an acquisi- tion to our village both socially and in a business sense Mr. and Mrs. Sheppard, before leaving Tottenham, were made the reci[)ieni.s of an address and a well filled purse by the Presbyterians of that place, with which church they had been intimately aasoci^itcd for four years, Mr. S. in the capacity of choir leader aud treasurer. The Tottenham Sentinel speaks very highly of this talented family and says : '"We wish Mr. and Mrs Sheppard success in their new home, and hope they may be long spared to exercise their talents as they have done here." Full particular :ire tj hand re'^ardin^ the sad aud untimely cod of Alfie<l Chis- lett, son of the postmaster at Fieshert< n Station, aud whose remains were inter- red :n Flcshe.' ton cemetery on Wednes- day of la^t sveek. Thes.j are as foiloas ; On We-lnesday .June 20. lie obtained eui ployiuent »i(h the Stoiis Nurs(.ry C 'j-i pauy of Paiiusvi le, O.iiu. On the folluw- ing Sunday he volunteered to a.^sist the mrty wh><6c tuiu it was r.) remain on duty that day, aud was g>>tni( to his toar<.Uiig houje for dinner on his bicycle. To avoid going up a steep hill and to shorten the disiiuice alniut a quarter of a mile he rode along the railroad between the two tracks. A freight train wa,-» af proachiig him in front and to avfid til is he g"t to<i iK'ur the other track and was Htruck from behind by an express which be apparently did not hear. Ue lived fur abviut three quarters of an boui inau unooucioiis condition. He sp. 'ke twice, snyi' g, " let go my fi<it. " Every- thing that (k<ssilily could be d'-ne for him WHS done. His uncle, Alfred Down, was phoiitd for and reached the place shortly afttr h» death. Theyoun^ man left home t«o years ago to learn the &>t- ist business in Cleveland, Ohio, an J was shoitly oxpectctl home OH a visit. The fuiiei al, as we have said, took pl.tce to Flesherton cemetery on Wednesday of last wook. He was an estimable young man, and the tlora! tributes placed upon his OLskct testified to the high esteem in which he was held. Anniversary Services berriea and refreshments were served in the basement, and we unhesitatingly pronounce this one of the very best collations we haire ever had the pleasure of sampling. The ladies bad provided an abundance of the very best things that culinary art can produce. An id- joarnment wai then made to the body of the church where a very choice program was rendered. This consisted of an openins anthem by the choir, a duet by Mr. Kouera and Mrs. Black bam, another by Mr. Sheppard and Miss Joy, given by special request, and a quartet by Mr. Sheppard, Mr». Shepparri, Miss Joy and Mrs. Blackburn. These pieces were 11 of more rbaa ordinary merit and were very highly appreciated indeed. Added to this, which was of itself extraordiiuiry value for the money, was a lar^e series of limelight pictures of foreign scenes iu- cluduig some lovely scenes of Scottish scenery, with scenes in London, Windsor, etc , interspersed with humoroas ricws to to please the little people. .Altogether this was, iu fact, a double feast for a single admission. Rev. Mr. Matthewson spoke for a few minacea on mission work, but could not iu the rime at his disposal do any justice to the theme and did not attempt to do to. This entertaiament is an annual affair and the funds are devoted to wiping off the church debt, which still amoauts to eleven hundred dollars, but is gradually being cleared away. A very brilliant meteor exploded in the nurthem sky on Tuesday evening, the noise of which was distinctly audible. In all probability it exploded from fifteen to twenty mUes north of Flesherton and half a mile al'ove the earth. We gather this from the altitude and position in which it was seen at varioas points throughout the county. PERSON .\LS The Presbyterian anniversary service held on Sunday evening last was well at- tended. Mr. Rjgers, of the Bible Training Institute, Toronto, preached from Mark 1st chapter and 17 ;h vi-rse, which, as is always the easo with Mr. Rogers' seruious, was listened to with deep atton ion and prolit. The choir, which has receiuly been augmetited by three splendid voices, was iu excellent form and added much t.> the pleasure of the service. .-V duet between Mr. T. J. Sheppard and Miss Joy was a particular- ly pleasing feature. Mr. Sheppard has a line tenor voice, and al.«> sings bass, and his sister-in law, Mis* Joy, has a marvel- ous tenor-bantoiie voioe.
