There are no rPmnncers in Flesherton We have not had anything special recorded here since the season opened, Ellisâ€" McNali.t â€" A pretty but quiet weddni<{ took jilare at the residence of Mrs. M, MoNttUy of Toronto on April 23rd, 1006, when her youngest daughter. Bell, was united in marriago to Mr Ellis ofTiiroiito. The yo'nig couple have the best wi^he8 of a la-ge circle of friends. Mr. J. R. H"gg, of Eugenia had an extremely narrow e-^capo from death, by lightning one day last week. During the approach of the stonu hn went out to the Held to bring in a horse. Just as he was abt'ut to catch the animal a bolt struck near him and briiust him to bis knees. The horae wag also partially paialyzed for a time but both recovered.. Mr. Hogg's muscles were vary sore for some tiiDs after. - â-  â-  * ' "' '' A car load of Pi.rtlard cement, un'oadod I few d.iys ago by Boyd, Hickling & Co. for the benelil of eaily buyers. We notice by oxohiriBes ihut Fleahor- tor. iM down lor a lacrosse club in the iniernu'diate clans with Owen Sound, Markdale, Diin<l:i!k, Shelburne and Or- aoijevillu. This must be a misr.ike. Flesherton will have no Icauue club this year, fur the reason that Durham is not to bu included in this circuit. When we go into lacrosse here atfain Durham niusl he al'ing for old triendahip sake. Does the Chronicle appreciate the sacrilico we are making? The forepart of last week, Mr. Flesbor, late hotel koopar at Maxwell, received a telegram from Midland informing him of the death by drowning of his brother Edward. The tuu, Clipper, on which he Was engaged as engineer, foundered off the Bustard islands. Capt. Peter Mcfu- tosb and Robt. Johnson, fireman, also lost their lives, Albert Reattie, another member of the crew, escaped but nearly perished from exposure. The body of Edward Flesher was brotight to Owen Sound and taken to his home at Cutter on the north shorn. At the regular meeting of Prince Arth- ur Lodge A.F ft A.M. on Friday evening last ofiiccru were elected for the onsuin:; twelve months as follows: W.M., Bro W. A.Armstn.ng; S, W., Bro. T. A. Blakely; J. W., Bro. C.N.Richardson ; Chaplain, Bro. Rev. J. S. L Wilson; Treas,, Wor. Bro. A. S. Vandusen; Sec, Bro. flerb Smith; Tyler, Bro. Jas Sullivan ; Audit- ors, Wor. Bros. M. K. Richardson and F. H. W. Hickling. We are not aure that the following from an exchange .applies to Flesherton as well but are inclined to think it does : There are several children within the sch.^ol age, that are very irregular in their attendance at school. The School Act is very definite and clear on the matter and says that children within the years of eight to fourteen must attend the school regularly and punctually. No provision is made for children running errands, do- ing house work or attending to business aSikiis. At the annual meeting nf the auxilliary of the W.M.S. held last Thursday in the Methodist church the following officers were elected : Pres., Mrs. W. H. Thur- ston; 1st V. P., Mrs. Clinton; 2nd V.P., Mrs. F. Nicholson ; Rec. Sec, Mrs. G. Mitchell, Cor. Sec, Mrs. W. A. Ann- strong; Treaa., Mrs. W.H Bunt; Pres of Systematic Giving, Mrs. Rev Caldwell; Leader of Mission Band, Mrs. Thurston. The society raised over fifty-five dollars with a membership of 24. They also sent a box of fruit to the Deaconess Home, Toronto, for the use <A the poor in the city and a barrel of clothing to Mattawa, While coupling cor? in the station yard at Orsnttevile about 6.30 Saturday night Harry Johnston, a C.P. R. brakeman.was caught and badly crushed between two sections of a freight train. The engine stopped a trifie short, but as Johnsion stopped between the cars it started ai;aiii, the couplers catching biui in the ahdomoD and small of rho back. He was at once taken tu the home of his grandparents, Mr. anl Mrs. James Keyos, where ho ditd al 5.15 next morning. An autopsy, he'd shortly after his death revealed the fact that his liver had been crushed al- most in two and that other organs had received terrible iujuiics. Johnston was well known h>>re, he having been assist- ant operator a'; this station for nearly two years. A yea" and a half ago he left operating and Went to brakeing. He was twenty one years of age. Both his {Barents are dead, his father having bren killed in an engine wreck wheu he was four years of age. An es'eeined Chicaso correspondent charges the .Advance with itionnsistency in advocating the using of Niagara Falls waterpower for the good of industrial Canada and in the same issuead vising the preservation of a beaver which wintered in the millpond bore, as he says, for sen- timental reason's. We c infess our inabil- ity to see the incons stency involved, or value of the argument alvanoed by our correspondent when he says "sell the ?kin and give the proceeds to the poor." Tho beaver in this country have about become exinct and yoverninent prohibits it's slaughter, meting out heavy punish- ment to any person found wit.h a skin in his possession. This law was not passed for sentimenUil reasons, but as an act of political economy so that a valuable asset might be 8<»ved to the province. Wben beaver become sufficiently n'lmeroua license to trap « ill produce a good reve- nue to the people. The time ha.H already come when Niagara could produce an immense reveiiiie for the people of On- tario. The United States began this " sacrilege," as it is nailed, and Canada fidlowcd. Then so soon as two or three private companies got their " hooks " on all tho po.ver they wanted the sentimen- tal cry was raised. No doubt the share- holJer.i in these coinfiauies are now sen- timentalists to a m-tn. They see their cent per cent, dividends dwindling and the cry goes forth from these people, "save Niagara ! " â€" (save it for us.) In rude but expressive language, " rats" on such sentinientali^m I When tho time comes we will also say, utilize the beaver skins. Any reader disagreeing with these sentiments will be aUowed free access to our columns. Stomach Troubles Mrs. Sue.

"Tho difrorence,"8aid Uncle Josh, "Be- tween Elijah, the prophet of I.nrael, and "Elijah 11" alias Dowie, of Zion City, is plain to a blind man. Elijah was fed by ravens, and Dowiu was fed by a whole bunch of jays!" The clause of the new liquor law fixing the continuance of local option at two years has been chansed back to three years, but the three fifths majority clause stands. The latter is discouragintt to temperance workers and doubtless intend- ed to bo a tidbit for the liquor interest. Bat temperance men should not com- plain, they are getting just what, many of them say they voted for â€" Whitney's views on temperance. â€" Collingwood Bulletin. Bob Kyle, who left Orangeville nine years ago for Klondike, arrived in town this week and met many of his old friends. Bob spent a few days with McBrien Bros , of M«oo, and put in less than a day in town. After remaining in the Klondike six years Bob went to the other end of the worM, British New Guinea, where he mined for three yeais. After spending a day or two with his sis- ter. Mrs. Morrison, of Cotswold, Bob will start for Siberia and see what kind of a country that is for B(dd digging. Bob left San Francisco just a few day's before the earthquake occurred. While here he banded his father 26 $20 gold pieces for a present. We wish Bob all kinds of luck iu Siberia. â€" Sun.

The biggest and heaviest knife is not necessarily the best. Now there is just as much difference in the quality and strength of steel in fence wire as there is in a knife blade or razor. The Page Co. use a high carbon ateel wire, which though it costs you but little more, is fifty per cent (50%) stronger than wire in other fences. The lightest PAGE fence is as strong as the heaviest of other oiakes. Notice the lock in PAGE "EMPIRE" FENCE. You may have noticed also that othera are imitating It. That is a good recommend for it.. Where me lead otliers follow. Alt PAGE wire is "COILED," not crimped. ' ' THE UOCK IN PAOE "EtvlPIRE" FENCES. CHEAPEST Besides the extra strength and superior workmanship, PAGE FENCES are dip- ped in Ok. special white paint, which on top of the best of galvanizing, will lengthen the life of wire for years. And, also, this white coating makes wire much more sightly. Owing to the great strength and elasticity of PAGE fencing, one-' third less posts are re- quired, thus reducing the. cost of the fencing. As you get in PAGE FENCES one-hall: more fence strengthi. greater protection against rust, belter workmanship, better appearance, use less pdsts, can you afford to use other fences, even though you could , bijy them for one-half the price of the ^ PAGE? But, really ours cost you..^ little. If any more. % 408 ' Get prices before placing your order for Fence Gates or Lawn Fence. • SOLD AND ERECTKU UY - 3* n. beard, FkSbertoti 3kis« Coti0» maxwell Cbos.
