County Commissioner Preston of Max- well writes Tbe Advance as follows : "I notice in the minutes of the County Council in our last issue I am represented as advocating that the county should issue debentures for S10,0OO to assist the Owen Sound General and Marine hospital. That is a mistake. I have never, either by word or vote, advocated giving the hospital any increase above the usual grant of $300." People who fire off guns should see that their muzzles are pointed where they can do no harm. On Thursday last a spent bullet from a 32 chlibre rifle dropped through a window in the residence of Mr. John White and tell on the floor. Beyond shattering the pane of glass no harm was done, but that was not the fault of the man at the trigger. He did his best to kill somebody, and he ought to be looked after . Mr. John Sheppard of this town keeps bees. Some of these bees decided that they would like to bo in the procession Saturday so on Friday evening they swarmed and look up their position on top of an aroh opposite the Presbyterian church. The cruel owner, however, pro- posed to veto their ambitious designs and proceeded to hive them. Isext morning they were back at their post on the arch, or a portion of them, and a second hiving tournament had to be gone through be- fore they would ijuit. Shortly afterward the arch fell down, whether from over- strained nerves or not wo cannot say, but it was not resurrected. Two very interesting games of lacrosse were played in Durham on Monday afiei noon before an audience of four or five hundred people. The first match was played between Durham and IVIt. Forest Juniors and resulted in a score of 5 to in favor of Durham. The second was a league match between the Seniors of the same towns and after a hotly contested game resulted in favoi of the Durham team by a score of 3 to 1. This match !s .said to have been an extra trood oni', thf playing Hiroughout being first class. The game was clean with only one man sent to the fence and o.xe'ting lang- uage was kept well in check. Tliis puts Durham in second place in the ln*ernie diate League with Owon Sound in the lead. We have been shown a letter received by Mr. R.
