Editor A GOOD YEAR The prrsoiit has been a >;ood year in Cftnada nud should niiikc money easy for ihe next few months. The pessimist findi it dillioult to secure fiurticitnt ammunition to keep his pop- gun working, now tLut tlio threshing luaehiiie has deiuonstrntod a splendid yifild of all kinds of giam. Every- thing seems to liaYu thriven this year â€" root crops, grain and fruit (including lieu Iruiil and the farmer who is depicted with a long face in cartoon is I'O longer a typical subject. The potato crop in Canada is said to be enormous and prices for than coimuodily will be low, but for all other produce that the farmer raises loug prices will prevail, and as a coiisequence uiai:y mortgages will be paid ofl' and home coinfcrts secured. The yield of wheat in Ontario has been extra gcod this year and the quality is much beyond the average, Bomc millers reporting grain weigh- ing as high as 04 lbs. to the bushel. Thanksgiving time is approaching, and never before did the people of this country .have better reason to celebrate that day ia a befitting manner than they have this year. recent writings. The judge who would refuse to punish a criminal because other criminals are not pun- ished, is not tit to sit on the judicial bench. What right has such a judge to presume that others who are not brought before him are guilty? He is supposed to take cogni/.ance only of the cases that aie tried in his court. Moreover, his oath of office makes it imperative for him to administer justice according to the laws that arc framed for his guidance. In this case we tiiid a judge floiUing the law he has sworn to administer, without fear or favour ; and we also find the Toronto paper before-mentioned praising the act as one of "even handed justice." and hoping we will have more of it. Wp fancy, however, that the pessimis- tic editorial writer of Saturday Night penned his criticism without due con- sideration of what his position invol- ves, posi-ibly through a williugiieBS to sink his true sentiment in the not very creditable object of getting a knock at the Lord's day Alliunce, for whom he appears to have a peculiar aversion. Whether his contention that the laws are unfairly administered in Canada is correct or not has nothing to do with the case in point. That the prosecutor fails to do his part is no excuse for a judge to refuse to penalize any crime that is proven before him. Weather conditions : Storms are still raging around the north pole. At the Canadian Manufacturers' Association convention held in Hamil- ton last week the question of forming a tarriff commission to revise the tarrifl was thoroughly discussed and the principle endorsed. The appoint- ing of such a commission was advo- cated in these columns a few weeks ago. With this week we enter upon the grind of local tfall fairs. Friday of this week Flesherton, next Friday Priceville and the following Wednes- day Osprey fair. With a prosper- ous season and barns bulging farmers ehonld all patronize the local fairs, uwap storios, discuss live stock, make sales, purchases, etc., etc. Ihe local fairs are profitable events if iiandled properly by both directors and public. A serious outbreak of typhoid fever •t Cobalt is puzzling the authorities. The hospital there is full of patients and many have left and ate in hospit- als at other points. The cause has not been located, but a general cleau- iug up has bttu ordered. There are two great sources of contagion in typhoid â€" the germs are carried in water, and also, it is said, as would seem reasouale, by fliei. Cobalters say they have good, pure water, so possibly dies are the great carriers of contagion in that district. A whole- sale campaign against these house- hold pests might go a long way to- wards stamping out the disease. Aceording to the Scientific Amer- ican, telephonic vision is now an assured fact, two Danes having solved the question of carrying vision elec- trically so thai the poisons speaking orer a telephone cau actually see each other as they converse. This accom- plishment has long been sought by electrical experts and the fact that its success has been chronicled by such a high scientific authority places it beyond the realm of hearsay. The new invention will have the effect of popularizing telephonic conversations iu many ways. The young man who deaires to see, as well as hear, his absent young lady friend, will prob- ably find the greatest consolation in the new invention, and the three minutes will more often be exceeded. One of the more practical uses of the invention, however, wilt be its use for purposes of identification of criminals and others, in which it will work an immense saving of tirao and expense.

Toronto, Sept. 18 - The action of Frank Anthony of 548 Adelaide Htitiet west, n local tiiisinith, in ojjeiiing the grave of his son-in-law, ^^'illiaIn Gray, at Oniiige- ville, and having the liuad si-vured from the liody, will \)u tliu basis of a criminal proHecntion by the Oranguvillu auihori- ties.

Tlie olhcer took bin prisoner back last evening. The case is .•in niuisual one, and centres in the death, over a year ago, of Gray. The dead iiian was, according to the police, n heavy drinker, and, having been placed on tlio "Indian hst," was refused lii|iior at till- hotels ill the town. Some time before his death, it is said, he forced his way into .Jeremiah Morrison's hotel, :uid wlien the proprietor attempted to put liim out a tight resulted. Gray was ejec- ted from the building after lie had, .•iccording to the story of his relatives, been struck over the her.d liy a hard rublior instrument in Morrison's hands. The incident was almost forgotten until some iiioii'.hs later when Gray after a sliort illness died. His relatives then revived the story of the tight in the hotel and the alleged use of the piece of hard rul)l)er, claiming that Gray's skull had been fractured hy the blow, although the injury was not suspected at the time. t'iMinly Crown Attorney MicKiiy, to determine whetlier there was any fouiid- .ition for tho story, held an in(|uest, but the jury after hearing the evidence brought in a verdict of death from natural causes. Ni>t content with this, Frank Anthony of Toronto, representing Gray's wife, brought an action in the courts against the hotel keeper, claiming damages for tlie death of Gray. The body wis ex- humed. The trial of the action was heard before a jury. County Crown Attorney Di-ayton of Toronto represent- ing Morrison. The jury, after listening to physicians for both si<les, found against the plaintiffs, and the pres ding .Judge refused permission to appeal. Still unwilling to accept defeat, Anthony announced bis intention of a.skiiig the Court of Ap|ieal to set aside the .Judge's ruling, and for permission to have the action tried again.

Meanwhile Anthony bad the Isnly exhiuned again, and severing tliu head from the trunk, brought it to Toronto, where it is now in charge of his lawyers.

The ti.'iherlos inspector at Owen Sound has got busy recently and secured several convictions fur illegal tishiug and havim; fish in possessiun that were illegaly caught. A curious sight was to be seen yester- day alternoon on Division St. opposite the Seldon House. A man wati observed on the sidewalk holding a tele|)hono receiver to bis ear while his right hand had a grip on what ajipeared to be an ordinary wooden hoop. Al- though there were nn wires visible he was evidently li.steiiing to some c<m- veisatioii, Hiid ini|uiry revealed the fact that wireless telephony had arrived in Owen Sound. Experiments wero being made with apparatus belonging to the C'lllins Wireless Telephone Company of Newark, New Jer.iey. Mr. John Sydney of this town, who is one of the agent.s of the Company was conducting the experi- ments. While Mr. Sydney was standing in a room in the hotel speaking into the transmitter the man ou iWe street with the receiver at his oar could hoar every word with marvellous distinctness. It was a wonderful experience, and was hailed as such by the numerous indi- vidu.ils who got â-  hold if the receiver. Mr. Sydney ia eiideavoring to sell stock for the Collins Compuny. Demonstra- tions were tirst given in Canada at the Toronto Exhibition and Oweu Sound is the second p'ace in the Dominion to receive a demonstration ot the powers of this latest achievement of mechanical science. Last night there were thirty-three patients in the General and Marine Hospital, three mire than there is really accoiunioJation fur. Thirteen of the in- mates are suti'ering from a severe type of tyjihoid fever, and ttd.s is a most ab- normal number in this district. Several of these patients have been working down on the wharves. The matron and nurses have their hands full, and have little or no time to obtain rest. It is to be lioped that this typhoid epidemic, the cause of which is puzzling the doctors, will be speedily stamped out. Councillor J. L.

As the problem did not so far admit of any practical solution, inventors have, in fact, been satisfied with transmitting, by wire, photographic pictures, diagrams, hand writing and the like. According to reports just received from Denmark, a satisfactory solution is now offered. In fact, two young Danes (the brothers Anderson) recently called at the offices Politiken, tho well-known Copenhagen daily, in order to submit to the editor the principle of their idea, [uirticulars of which cannot yet be given out. I'nlike the Korn •p]>aratus,optical trausmisason. according to their scheme, is not eflected by meana of any material seiibitive to light, such as lelenium, nor is ja picture produced by photographic or mechanical means as in all ihe apparatus so fur hi g- gested. Transmissiviii. in fact, takes place siiuul*aneously, so as toreproduie any objects situated at the sending station in their natural colors and motions, their diniensions, however,being reduced. The apparatus is connected by a con- tact with the telephone wire, when the acoustic or optical currents can be throwu altornalily thiough the line. The operator is thus able at will to show himself, or to bring befoie thw eyes of the person at the other end any objects he inay like to show him. Ah the apparatus, so ftr from being necessar- ily located iupuediatuly beside the tele- phone, can be used within a considerable nuige, provided the contact be obtained.
