Railway Napanee, Oct. 16.--The Canadian Northern Railway has - submitted plans for a new station, and of a new location for the building. The proposed building is very si- milar to the brick station erected by the company at Deseronto, but is to have an extra elevation of three fest, The proposed situation is about 750 feet on the C.N.R., maim line west of the G.T.R. track. The freight offices and shed will remain where at present located. The Company pro- pose that the town of Napanee open up Ann street westerly for a couple of blocks or all the way the length to the Belleville road, and this road { would be intersected and another road 'constructed nertherly to the railway | site. The plans of the building, and the site are on file afd may bp sean at the clerk's office. The cost to the { town of securing the lands for the opening up of the proposed streets, grading them and building cement walks, would be in the neighborhood of from $2,500 to $3,000. L The question of fiying a site is a very im- portant matter to every ratepawer, as the station when erected wilF be there probably for all time. A public meeting to discuss the situdtion will be held on Monday.

Old Whig and Circular Prized By | Ross Peters, Wilton -- Wilton | Cheese Factory a Paying Concern. When a Whig representative was | passing through Wilton on Thursday he found practically every resident of that village attending the funeral of the late Miss Lizzie Hamilton, of Yarker; who died in the Kingston | General Hospital on Tuesday. The deceased, who was aged about twenty-three, was adaughter of Mr. and Mrs. Archibald Hamilton. Shé Was one of the most popular young ies in the district, and worked for Bert Baboock at Wilton for some time,. Miss Hamilton had always ta- | ken a great interest in Methodist church and Sunday School work at Wilton. On her death bed she re- Quested that her remains be placed in the cemetery at Wilton. Long before two o'clock: the hour for the service, the church was fill- ed with the friends of the deceased. Rev. F. W. White conducted the ser vice after which the remains were placed in the vault, Clinton Smith, | Harold Freeman, Roy Freeman, Car- man Ashley, Yarker, and Archibald Simmons and Stinson Carr, Wilton, | acted as pallbearers. Old Whig And Circular. Among articles which Ross Peters, | who resides on the Wilton Rural | Mail delivery, prizes very much are! an old copy of the Weekly British Whig and a circular announcing an auction sale. On Thursday when the Whig representative was at the home of Mr. Peters, he had an op. portunity to examine these ariteles. The newspaper is a copy of the Week- ly British Whig dated, February 6th, 1879. Althought it has been some- what exposed, one experiences no difficulty in reading it. The bill announcing the - auction sale was printed at the Whig Quring the year of 1869. It announced a sale to take place at the home of Reuben Sidney Davy was the ane- toneer. . Returns To Wilton.

Baker, chief librarian of the pub- lie library at Taunton, England, says that he has compiled and prepared for publication "A Tenuyson Diction- | ary," in which the characters and | place names contained in the poeti- cal and dramatic works of the poet are alphabetically arranged and de- | scribed, with synopsis of the poems and the plays, and he adds, "'provid- ed a sufficient number of copies are subscribed the work will be proceed- ed with at once."

Christian Science Monitor The origin of the phrase "sent to Uoventry" is far more obscure. It] goes back certainly to 1647, when it | Is used in one of the great English ' classics, Clarendon's "History of the | Rebellion." The point is whether | Clarendon's use of it was the origin! of the phrase which has become so common in England. Clarendon, whose affection for the Roundheads | everybody knows, took the opportun- ity in his history to describe the pe- culiar wickedness of thd townsmen of Birmingham. He declared that So intense was this wickedness that they would set upon. and shoot or capture parties of Royalist soldiers! or individuals. Those captured they | sent to 'Coventry, to be imprisoned | there. This is supposed to have been i Demonstrating Quality, all pure linen.
