The square was ' packed with motors and people, who listened to one of the choicest pro- grams of band music ever heard here. The band was given seating room on the verandah of the Munshaw House, which was well lighted. It had been the intention to have the program in Memorial Park, but the wire for stringing lights had not arrived, so other arrangements had to be made. After the program of nearly two hours' duration the band was invited to Mr. W. A. Armstrong's home> where on his spacious verandah they were served with refreshments and Mr. George Mitchell conveyed to Mr. Park and his musical organization the thanks of the community for their generosity. Owen Sound Child Smothered To Death Owen Sound, Ont., June 22.â€" The ten-months' old baby of Fred and Mrs. Flint, of Owen Sound,' was smothered to death some time early Saturday morning.

EGGS WANTED MAXWELL YOUNG IS KILLED IN THE WEST Son Of Councillor Henderson Of Maxwell Is Instauitly Killed At Mooseiaw 200,000 dozen eggs wanted High- est market price paid in cash. â€"J. RUNSTADLER, Flesherton. A despatch was received here Tues- day morning anonuncing the death of James Henderson, son of Mr. and Mrs. Joseoh Henderson of Maxwell, at Moosejaw, Sask., Monday. Beyond the bare statement that the young man was killed on a pole, no particulars are to hand. The deceased young man went West about ten years ago. For some time he was engaged in farming but more recently he has been on electric work under his cousin, R. M. Hender- son, who is superintendent of the el- electi'ic plant there. He was un- married. A peculiarly sad feature of this case is that another brother, who was also out West, became ill and returned home a year or so ago. He passed away this spring from his affliction. The loss of two sons within the year is a terrible blow to Mr. asd Mrs. Henderson, to whom the deep sym- pathy of all is extended. SAVED THEIR NECKS BUT SCRAPPED CAR Car Turned Over And Man Had Collar Bone Broken Agricultural Commission Is Entertained At Eugenia Two young men named Hood and Foulke of Markdale were the heroes of a car accident in the long swamp this side of Priceville on Friday last, about 2 a.m. They were on their way from Durham. Nobody knows just what happened, but it was said the driver was asleep at the post; and it came very near being his "Last Post." Anyway the car left the road, which is perfectly smooth and level at ihts point, and turned a som- ersault into the swamp. Foulke had his collar bone broken and was obliged to call in the services of Dr. TurnbuU to have the physical damage attended to. "The damage to the car will be looked after by another kind of phys- ician and consisted of broken wind- shield, top, fenders and tires. It was said to look as though it had come through the gun fire at Cour- celette or some oher fierce artillery battle.

Post-Mortem Is Ordered Into Death In Wiarton Wiarton, Ont., June 22. â€" Robert Edward Street, aged 65 years, man- ager of the Imperial Dil Company's station at Wiarton, died on Saturday, after a few hours' illness. He had been missing from home all day Fri- day, and returned about 11 p.m., Friday, but slept in a bam until early Saturday morning. When he went into the house he told his wife he felt very ill, but not to get a doctor. During the morning big condition be- came alarming, and two doctors were called. They found Street to be in a dying condition, and he passed away shortly after. The cause of death was stated by the doctors to be alco- holic poisoning. Crown Attorney Dixon of Bruce County, has ordered a post-mortem examination to be held Monday afternoon. Dr. Jamie-son's Agricultural Com- mission was in town on Thursday last week while on their way to Thombury to hold a meeting that afternoon. The personel of the Commission is: Hon. Dr. Jamieson (Con.) South | Grey), Chairman, I W. D. Keith (Con., North York. I A. Belanger (Lib., Ru.ssell), N. Trewartha (Con, Huron), A. Lethbridge (U.F.O., Middlesex),! M.M.MacBride (Labor, Brantforil), i with Mr. P. J. Cronyn, the Secretary j of the Commission. ( The gentlemen went out to Rock I Mills to vjsit Mr. Dargavel'.s fox | ranch, then to Eugenia, where mem- | bers of the party inspected Pheasant Island. After this the party par- i took of a speckled trout dinner pro- j vided by Mine Host Munshaw. This ' was very much' appreciated by the visitors, who were (luite lost for words to express their feelings after feast- ing on the toothsome dainty. After dinner was over a toast was proposed by Mr. Keith, joining the name of Dr. Jamieson therewith, and spoke in very laudatory terms of the work of [ the member for South Grey. Mr. I Boulanger seconded the toast and said | that were he to have no other political joys or triumphs during his career his , one great pleasure would be to re- 1 member his friendship and associa- ' tion with Dr. Jamieson. The party then proceeded to Thorn- ' bury where a meeting was held. On Friday the Commission met in Wiarton.

The I young woman's brother examined the i brakes that morning and found them all right. This young man feels his sister's death very keenly and wishes \ the public to know that he was not negligent in looking after the car to see that everything was in perfect working order before going out. } A test of the car after the accident | would prove the correctness of his statement, as a sudden application of the service brake caused the wheels to skid for some distance, showing that the brake was doing its work. The family have no theory for the accident, other than that the young woman must have become excited and did not do the correct thing in at- tempting to hold the car. It all happened in a few seconds of time and even those in the car do not know just how it occurred.
