Fort Law From oKr ovnt Correspondent Mr. John McNevin of this place met with what might have been a serious ac- cident one day last week while engaged {lUtting thu roof on Mr. James John- ston's stable. He was standing on the edge of the roof hauling up some shingles when, the bracket which he had his foot braced against nut beiiig properly uaiK-d it gave way and he slipiied and fell a dis- tance of over twenty feet, coining down the roof at lightning speed and sho'tting clean over the scaffold, striking the ground with great force. While no bones were broken Mr McNevin seems to be badly shaken up and is suffering from the shock, but we hope to soon see him able to be around again. Mr. David Janiieaon of this place has built a new stone cellar and had his house moved onto it. Mr. Sloan of Flesherton did the moving and we believe him to be a very competent band Mr. Jas. Maxwell is having a new wind- mill erected on his well. He intends putting in a large wa'er tank and piping sufficient to take the water a distance of over forty rods to his barn for the pur- pose of watering his stock. Mr. and Mrs. John Lyons spent Sun- day near Markdale. Mr. Albert Thompson is having a new «eU sunk. Mr. Chas. Napier is doing the work. Mrs. Tucker and family, of Egremont, are at present visiting with Mrs. L. Bait- gerow. Mr. Geo. Boecroft has rented Mr. Geo. Thompson's farm and is at present plough- ing on it. Mr. Adair, photographer of Dundalk, was up one day last week and took the photo of our school children, there being over ninety children present, that is counting big, great and small. Ho{ie it may be a success. A young gentleman attending service at Mount Zion last Sunday urening, who was the possessor of rather a fine hat, not knowing where to put it, saw rather a plain dressed young gentleman in the same pew, and handed him his hat to take care of. This young gentleman be- tug rather bewildered to know what to do with it, as he did not consider himself a hat peg, placed the hat in the pew and sat down un it. We understand when church was uvit the ])at was rather badly crimpod and we believe there was a piece of spelling done by tho proud possessor of it, while the other '^uieily slipped away exclaiming, "Wonder what he took me tor." Mr. Fred Ryder of Proton has juat finished tbe contract of veneering with brick Mr. llobortT. White's house, which we consider is a credit to him, as it is one of the finest looking houses now in this section. We wish R. T. and wife lung life to enjoy it. Spain's Greatest Need Mr. R. Olivia of Barcelona, Sp.tin, spends his winters at Aiken, S. G. Weak nerves had caused severe pains in the back of his head.

Mrs. Poole and Miss Craford moved last week and will occupy part of her son's new house. SVo hear that Mr. Haiina of Eugenia has lieen engaged as teacher for the fifth aideroad school for the ensuing year. The huntei-s have again cinnmenced to roam the woods. We had a taste of coming winter Inst week and it made us feel like wearing our mits again. We arc sorry t<i hear that Mr. John Linlcy is very ill at present. We hope Uj soon hear of his recovery. , Feversham. Keep this a Secret From our oum Correspondent Mr. £. Blackst'ick, a well known hotel keeper of Singhampton, died on Thursday, Oct. 27. Deceased was much respected by travellers and all who knew him. He had sufiji^ed a long time from dropsy. Mr. Thonirs Lindley, one of this coun- try's pioneers, passed away at bis home in the town of Collingwood on Saturday, 39th inat. Uo came to Attemeeia as one of the first settlers and settled on lot 39, con. 12, where he lived until about 10 years aao, when he removed to Colling- wood, where he remained until his death. The Salvation Army has got a new set of ofiicers. I thought we were going to lose all nur nice girls out of town the oMier night when we saw a load of them going out of town on trucks, but they say they just went fur a drive. Maxwell C. E. Society paid â- â€¢ visit to the Feversham society last Monday even- ing, Mr. McWhiniiey as leader. Miss Annie Broworidge of Markdale is visiting friends in this vicinity. Joe says he has eiuht or ten barns to thresh out yet and be says he can do it better and ([uicker than any other ma- chine in the neighborhood, and Joe is no hand to blow. Mr. Geo. Whitenak is going into the timber busioess pretty heavily this winter. We will no doubt have some pretty fishy yarns to communicate when the Feversham b<.>y8 get back from the Mus- koka deer hunt. By appesrances wo judge the Fever- sham sawmill will be rushed next summer as quantities of logs are already coming in. Business is rushing at. the gristmill. â€" . â€" I ^a I Priccville From Our Own Corvtfi>otidrHt If a stranger were approaching our burg Inst Monday evening ha would likely have come to tbe conclusion that a large foundry was situated about the middle of the town, as about that time of the day immense volumes of grimy smoke could be seen rulhng over the house tops iu a south easterly direction. However, it wivs only the kitchen chimney of the Com. mcrcial house engaged in one of its peri- odical eruptions. I A broad smile illumines the face of the agriculturalist at present. Oats 26 to 27, I peas CI to 62. I Mr. W. J. Blakeston has moved into the house lately occupied by Mr. James Watson. A serious accident befell Mr. M. Scott last week. As he was deoending a ladder one of tbo rungs near the top broke, caus- ing him to fall to the floor. His left arm was broken near the wrist by coming in contaut with a mower which was a shoit distance from tho foot of I ho ladder, Mr. Scott's left artu is rather an unfortunate limb, as this is the second time it has been fractured. The pupils of tho Molhodi.-it Sunday school havo boyuii pr^pirations for their annual Xina.4 tree entertaiuniont. Master Hoiinan and Miss Mamie JVlc Lean entertained their fridids very pleas- antly on Hallowe'en. A quiet weJding took place at tke resi- We are occasionally enjoined^ by a buyer i>f an enuaijcment or a wedding ring to "k-'ep' this a secret." We ALWAYS do so ; we divulge nothing of the kind ; our interest in .such sales being guaged not by sentiment but by hard cash, our profit. Strict confidence is therefore invaluable. Parties buyina from us car- do uo privately if desired. In Engauemeut Rings wc - are cikrrying a large stock and of greater variety than heretofore and at prices rang- ing from 81 50 to glo.W. We have recently adiled a new line of Wedding Rin<.'« in 10k gold, which are bound to be favorites. umn I am juat now making a specialty of Wa'ches, and if you are desiring a timepiece- â€" or even if you don't need: one very bad â€" it will pay youi to buy now while prices are at the bottom with Mc<iiiity.

Threshing is about all done and the machines are being laid away for rest. Last Thursday Mr. Geo. Eallister rais- ed bis new barn. The evening was cold but the excellent moonlight made it poH. sible to continue the work lor.g nfler dark until every rafter and timber was in position. Several narrow escapes are reported but we are glad to s:iy no one was seriously injured although the timber was very heavy and in some cases coated with thin ice. The Church of England supper and en- tertainment of Inst week unfortunately came on an evening when the weather was anything but pleasant. Yet the turn, out was very fair. The progrannne was largely furnished by Dund.-ilk talent ainl was all that could be desired. Mr. Alex McKecknie and family moved from here last week to Proton Station.
