Fenelon Falls, Out. The Feneion Falls Gazette. Friday, January 15th, 1892. DEATH OF PRINCE VICTOR. Prince Albert Victor, eldest son of the Prince of Wales, died yesterday (Thurs- day) morning at nine o’clock. Tm! Retorm Convention. The North Victoria. Reform Conven- tion, for the purpose of nominating a candidate to contest the riding at the approaching Dominion election, meets in Dickson’s hall tO-day at 12 o'clock noon. The Empire says that the nomi- nations for North and South Victoria will be held on the 28th inst., and the elections on February 4th. A Newspaper Combine. Under the above heading an exchange says: “ The Globe. Empire and Mail have formed a combine to raise their prices byono dollar a year on every edition. .. his means $75,000 a year of increase 0" the three papers. The Empire has not said tnuch about combines, it is true, save that it occasionally denies their existence. It will not be able to repeat the denial now. The Globe and Mail have protested a thousand times against combines, declaring them to be most nefarious and rascally thing. The Globe never lets up for a week at a time on this subject. The very day this combine was announced in its columns, it had also a cartoon illustrating the evils of combines.” The question as to whether a com- bine is right or wrong depends, like the question “ Who pays the duty ?" en- tirely upon circumstances. When sugar, cotton or any other “ lords,” who are already making large incomes, combine to crush small rivals and raise the price of the commodity in which they deal to an exorbitant figure, it. is obviously wrong and ought to be prevented if possible ; but when publishers, mer- chants or manufacturers who, impelled by the spirit of competition, have been selling their wares at less than a living profit, come to their senses and agree amongst themselves to demand what is just and reasonable for their wares, they “ combine," certainly, but who can blame them ? In businesses that can be started with small capital and in which many persons are engaged, com- bines are almost always formed with the laudable intention of preventing loss; but in industries so vast that there are but very feiv of them, combines are almost alwaysâ€"indeed, we may say always without the qualifying almostâ€" formed for the purpose of extortion. City papers have for a long time been far too cheap, and we do not think that the determination to raise them to a. fair priceâ€"which can only be done by a combineâ€"is in the slightest degree consurable. m A Surplus This Year. The Toronto News ofthe 12th says :â€" “ Hon. Richard llarcourt, Provincial Treasurer, Wears a broad, beaming smile these days. His annual statement is so near to completion as to make certain that there will be a surplus of over Presentation. The members of Miss Edith Ficlding‘s Sabbath school class presented her with a beautiful Bible and Hymn Book at Ebenezer? on Sunday, Dec. 2011). The people of the school section in which she has been engaged as teacher also at the same time presented Miss Field- ing with a handsome autograph album as a token of their confidence and esteem. Miss Maggie Here made the presenta- tion, whilc Miss Floss Smithcratn read the following address z-â€" ' Data Tnacnsa :â€" _ As the time for your de- parture from the society and Sunday school of our Ebenezer church draws near, we are constrained to realize m‘orc fully how much you have been to us. Your faithful and good work as our Sunday school teacher, and your daily consistent Christian life, have fully won our admiration and conti- dence. We singercly desire a place in your snored memory. As a token of un- feigned esteem and as a memento of the years spent in our neighborhood and church, please accept this gift. Be assured We shall continue to cherish the good impressions yott have left upon ottr minds, trusting that we shall yet more fully imitate your good example. The remembrance of you shall ever be to as helpful to right living. With the very best wishes for the life to come, we subscribe ourselves, on behalf of your Sunday school class and your friends of the school section, Yours in affectionate remembrance, Lor'rt'n Len. Macon-z Hons. FLoss Samaritan; Miss Fielding, who was utterly taken by surprise, replied in 3 KW heart-felt words, thanking thctn for the gift, which would be prized, not only for its pecu- niary value, but for the spirit which prompted it, showing the good will existing between her and her Sunday school class and also the people of the section.

On Saturday last James Gallaugher, a Vet-ulna] farmer, was arrested on suspicion of having stolen a goat-skin robe owued by Mr. Noble Johnston, of Fenelon, and taken front his sleigh while it was under the driving-shed at Twomey's hotel a year ago last Decem- ber. On Friday the robe was seen, wrong side out, over the hack of Gul- laugher's cutter, and Mr. Johnston, who came to the Falls next day. took out a warrant, and he and Constable Nevison went and searched the premises of Cal- lnhghcr, who was from home; but, after driving to some of his relatives, and not finding him, they met hint on their way $100,000. Thntsum alone was received home with the robe in his possession. from the Dominion Government on Ho was arrested, brought to the Falls Menday last, as settlenteutot the dis- 1 and taken before James Dickson, J. l’., putcd accounts, and there has been l who committed him for trial at the quite an excess of revenue above the l next court of competent jurisdiction, estimates.

Runaway. On Monday last the lad who deliver: bread from the FettelOn Falls bakorv took a little girl of his emplovcr‘s info the sleigh for the purpose of giving her a rido'from the rear ol'Newnmn‘s block. where the bakery is situated. to the front; and while driving past the end of the North Star Roller Mill on to Bond street, he was so occupied taking care of the child' that he did not pay proper attention to tho mare, a spirited animal, and one of the runners of the sleigh struck the embankment of Branâ€" don & McDougull's new weigh scale, and the result was an upset. The boy and child were both dumped out upon the snow, happily without injury to either, and ten secmtds later the mom was tearing down the main street, with the front bob performing all sorts of ground and lofty tumbling behind her, it having parted company with the rest. of the rig almost as soon as she started. Instead ofcrossing the swing bridge or jumping tltc low wire fencc‘nlong the side of the lock, she whirled around the corner of the McArthur House, and. entering the hotel yard, ended her brief but brilliant flight under one of the‘ driving sheds. m Personals. Mr. D. G. Clark, who came home on" the lst inst. for a few days' visit, left for Cannington on Monday morning. Mr. John Swanton, who left with Mr. Hugh McDuugall's brother for Minnedosa about eighteen months ago, came home on Friday last, and is locks ing.r remarkably well. The Misses Hume, of Coboconk, went-i- homc on Saturday. They had been visiting their sister. Mrs. C. Curtis, Jr.,. at the Falls 'since Christmas day. . Mr. Jolm Mitchell, of TorOuto, for- merly a resident of Fenclou Falls, was here from Tuesday afternoon until Wednesday morning. W DENTALâ€"Bo sure and call on J. Neclands, the dentist, at tho McArtuhur‘ House on Tuesday, Jan. 10th. Mr. Ncclands will have a complete gas apparatus for extracting teeth. M. I. SALEâ€"The annual sale by auction of papers of papers and period- icals taken by the Mechanics’ Institute will be held in the reading room on the evening of Monday, the 25th inst., octa- mencing at 8 o’clock. WELL SATISFIEDâ€"All who saw the stereoscopic views in Dickson's hall on Saturday and Tuesday evenings, and in L-unb’s school house on Mondays. were. well satisfied and speak in the highest terms of the exhibitions. The scenes were admirable and the accompanying explanations both entertaining and instructive. WALK IN, GENTI.E.\IEN.â€"â€"Loss than the average nutnber of subscribers have called in so far this winter to pay for the Gazette, and we thought there would be more, as the harvest was such an exceptionally good one. Look in your pocket-books, gentlemen, and see if there isn't money belonging to us in them; and, if there is, walk in with it and go away with receipts and clear consciences. BUSINESS CHANGESâ€"The Fcuclon Falls bakery and butchery have both recently changed hands, Mr. S. W. Mctcalf having sold the former to Mr. A. Northey and bought the latter from Mr. Henry Austin. There is room for one of each in the village, and no more, and if the monopolists will keep prices down to what the people consider reason~ able, there is not much fear that they will have Oppo:ition. Faunnns' INSTITUTEâ€"Tho East Victoria Furmers’ Institute held two sessions in Dickson's hall yesterday ; but as the first did not take place until late in the forenoon and the second was not commenced until after the pages of Gazette were being “ make up," we must. defer any further notice until inert week. Two sessions \‘vero held at Bibcayneoa on Wednesday, both ofwhichâ€"espccinl- Iy the one in the eveningâ€"were Well attended by farmers front the vicinity as well as by residents of the village. GOOD sztoxt[Ndâ€"Yesterday morn- ing our village clerks were kept busy for a. while shovclling and sweeping away the snow that had fallen on the sidewalk during the night, and the sleighing is now tip top. Mr. Brandon, the celebrated biscuit makcr,â€"or the maker of celebrated biscuits,-â€"-whu cone to the Falls from Cnnnington on Wed- nesday, said he never had a more pleas not drive, eXCept that at a few places there was hardly snow enough to pre- vent the sleigh from “ slewing," bu; there's plenty of it now. A Cnxrexnntax -’I‘hc Port Hope Guide records a visit paid on New Year's day by Mayor Burnham and other resi- dents of the town to congratulate Mrs. Haskill on her 100th birthday.
