Those in tbi.o district who were under the impression that proStiUe sirowing of wheat here was a thing of the past have had theirjeyes opened by a phenomenal yield just thieslunl by Mr. Fre<.l Brown, who lives about a mile north of lias vil- lage. That gentleman, off a tield of 7i acres, thresheii 330 bushels of clean wheat and un excellent sample, or over 45 bushels to the acre. The tii'd did not undergo any special treatment. Other farmers also report goi:d yields of wheat, but nothing to conii>are with Mr. Brown's. Mr. Goo.

Therefore The \dvaooe will probably be printed on Thursday instead of Wednesday, as is our usual custom. Large crowds of Toronto visitors flood- ed this D'.rth country on Friday and Siturday.

Asked what tiis reaaons were, be said : " Oil. it.^ a stubborn town." When presaed for fuither explanations the astounding; in- formation was received that "I am all the time stubbiii^ my toes 1" That waa what be thouiiht constituted a "stubborn town" The incident actually occurreil last week.

The Wards Abolished Some inisunclerstaiiding exists in refer- ence to municit'a' elections, some assert- ing that the ward system is abidi^hid Bud otiiers th:tt it is not. In onler to si'tllo the ques'.ion ci'rresp.'ndeiico was had with th'j Attorney Ge leral's office, and the answer is as follow s : Tin>nto, 6th Anaust, 1S98. Dear SiK,- I have vours of the 5th inst , w i":)! leferonce to sections 73 and 101 o: U. S. O., Chap. 223. The amend- ineiit niiide by (!1 Viet . Chap. 23, See. 4, docs not aboiiih the divisioniif townships into wirds, but a^ I uiiderst.ind, merely provides that coiu.eillors are not to be elected for separate ward.s, but f<.ir the whole township. Signed, J. R. C.aRTWUIGHT. This iiieans that all councillors, a« well as Ueeve,niust be elected by teneral vote and is as it should be. This to<»iiship has been run :is if there were four town- ships, each councillor lo'^islating entirely too much for his own ward. On Friday last Messrs. V'H". Drake Jr., and Geo. Slevensou were digging a well for Mr. J. K. Loug'ieed of the tenth line. For some time the men had notic- ed that the air in the well w;is stifling and that matches would not burn in it. When at a depth of about thirty feet Mr. Stev euson refused lo .<itay in the well, but Mr. Drake stuck to it »<> as to finish the work. Suddenly Mr Diake fell over, unconsci- ous, smothered by the hydro carbons which had generated from the mud and water at the bottom of the well. Steven- son wa^ at the time working at the wind- lass and b;ifore he could g've assistance ho had to run for other men, as someone had to go down in the bucket. In a few minutes the uaconscioits man was broui;bt to the surface and Dr. Large was immedi- ately sent for. However, before the dijctor arrived the effects of the gas had passed away and Mr. Drake was soon on bid feet.â€" Clarksburg Redector. PEKS0NAL3 Mrs W. H. Flesher ia visiting har mother in Barrie.
