MCDOUGALL, The Fenclon Falls Gazette. Friday. June 3rd, 1892. A Fruitlelss Errand. In compliance with a resolution passed at a public meeting held in Jordan’s Hall on the 18th, ult, Mr. John 2. Ellis, more of Fenclon Falls, went to Montreal last week and interviewed L. J. Scar- geant, Esq, General Manager of the Two doors North ofthe Post-office. Giraud Trunk Railway Co., with the Fenolon Falls, April 14th, 1892. ' View of procuring. if possible, Saturday market tickets, at reduced rates, from all points north tO'Fcnelon Falls. Mr. lilis was, of course, conrtcously received and given a patient hearing; butâ€"as every body cxccptpossibly a few unusu‘ ally sanguine individuals expectedâ€"he could obtain nothing more encouraging than a promise that the matter should be submitted to the directors' consider- ation. Mr. Scargcant pointed out, first- ly, that market tickets had never yet MN m fimmwss, which I will sell M MST WidES Edd dddii, as 1 do not want to carry them over. Now is your time to get a. good Over-coat cheap. These goods are All New and of the Latest Styles, and made by one of the best houses in the Dominion. â€"ALSO,-â€"â€" A Large Stock of nets and Shoes at prices to suit tho-times. Groceries, Crockery and Glassâ€"ware. A full line of the best goods to be had always on hand. J. MSFARLANC, 'rxvoxuey’s Block. or large terminal villages on branch lines;- and, secondly, that if Fcnelon Falls had them a host of other small places would want them too. however, that exceptions ought to be made in favor of villages which, like the Falls, voted large railroad bonuses ;‘ but the G. T. R., being a corporation, and corporations having no souls, will do exactly what it. thinks best for its own interest. Reduced passenger rates to large places are a great injury and injustice to smaller ones, and any village which in the future may be asked to Vote a railway bonus will be wisc'to’ make it a condition of granting the re- quircd aid that there shall be no “. mar- kct tickets.” At the meeting which sent the recvc to Montreal, in was moved and seconded that his expenses should be paid out of the public treasury; but, as this was loudly objected to by a couple of ratepayers, the necessary sum was subscribed by the village merchants, who, the objectors argued, would be the only persons benciittcrl by the abolition of the Saturday tickets; and the amount required was so small that the question Fenclon Falls, January 27th, 1892. . was not thought worth debating.

Tittlcbat Titmousc acquired disgrace- ful fame by crowing like a rooster in the British House of Commons, and Sam Hughes aroused deeper indigna- tion by singing “ Nearer my God to Thee," during an all night session, than was excited by poor “Tit’s” perform- ance. The Pulpit as well as the Press has taken him to task; but, though he has not offended a second time by sing- ing a hymn in the House, he cannot rc- frain from drawing attention to him- self by warblinc, secular ditties, being no doubt as proud of his voice as he is of everything else that is his. Clearly, the people of North Victoria made a mistake when they sent‘Bully Hughes to represent them in Parliament, where he is entirely out of his element; for. though there may possibly be a few of his own kidney amongst his fellow legis- lators, they have the grace to suppress their rowdyism while in the presence of their superiors, but Sam, in the plcni- tude of his cgotism, allows an consider- ation of the eternal fitness of things to restrain him. Ontario And The World’s Fair. If prescntindications can be relied upon Ontario will have good cause to be proud of the exhibit which Mr. N. Awrey, M. P. P., the Provincial Com- missioner for the World’s Fair, is now preparing for the great Colombian Ex- position. Applications for space have come in so numerously already that Mr. Awrey has been forced to‘pay a visit to Chicago to secure increased room for our proposed display. Even then it will be necessary in the fall to cull "overthe offerings, when possibly 75 per cent. of them will be rejected, so that what will go to the World’s Fair will be the very choice of what the Province can produce. To accomplish the best results it is necessary that the public at large should enter cordially into the spirit of the enterprise, and assist the Commissioner in making a display creditable to the Province, and a standing advertisement of the enterprise and industry of its. people.

RAPID Gaow'ru.â€"-We were shown on May 30th a handful of lawn grass, clipped from a patch close to Mr. John Daniel's house in Fenclon, which meas- ured 223‘,- inchcs from the root to the top of the head, which was just shot out, and from tip to stem 30 inches. This shows that, although the weather has been cool, there has been a very rapid growth. BIG Eons A‘u.\I.\'.â€"-«i\Irs. Andrew Gillis, of Vcrulnm, brought us, last Saturday, two large eggs, one of which weighed and the other ounces. The hen that. laid them is part Shaw.“ hni and part white Spanish.
