Honorc Mercicr, cx-Premier 'of Quebec, died at Montreal at 9 a. m. on Tuesday, October 30th, of diabetes, from which he had suffered for about two years. Mr. Mercier was born at Iberville in October, 1840. and in his early days was a Conservativo, but was opposed to‘ the confederation of the British American provinces and changed his politics on that ground. After rep- resenting Rouvillc for a couple of years in the'House of Commons, he was in 1879 elected to represent St. Hyacinthe in the Quebec Legislature, and began the career that was to place him upon the topmost rung of the political ladder. His fall from power was to a great ex- tent owing to the fact that be permitted Liberal election funds in Quebec to be augmented by the means that have so long been popular with Dominion Con- servatives. Personally Mr. Mcrcier was very popular, as he was genial and gen- erous, and never carried political feel- ings into private life. He leav/cs a widow, two sons and two daughters. The Listowel Murder. Public interest in the murder of guilty of the murder. Chattelle, who is over 50 years of age, left his birthplace, St. Hyacinthc, Quebec, about 30 years ago, and travelled ever a great part of the world, much of the time having been spent as a sailor. He returned to St. Hyacinthe last July and worked for the new Electric Company until Sep- tember, when he left, and was not again heard of until arrested for the murder. It is said that his previous record was good, but he has rambled about so much that there is no telling what lie-may have done, and some think it not im- probable that bc is Jack the Ripper, whose many terrible crimes of a similar nature in London, England. so horrified the civilizod Wul‘ld, and a description of him is to be sent to Scotland Yard, the headquarters of the Londoa police. About nine years ago Chattelle became insane, and was confined in the asylum at 'l‘aunton, Mass. for several months. It is thought that he is tired of his life, and will, it he have the opportunity. commit suicide before the spring assizcs at Stratford come around. On Monday last Mr. J. McFarland, reeve, and Councillor Golden drove out to Somcrville to try to effect a settle- ment with Mr. T. J. Mitchell, who on the 15th ult. fell into an open drain on Lindsay street in this village and broke three of his ribs ; and as Mr. Mitchell would neither say what sum he would accept, as damages. nor allow his visitors to make an other, Mr. Junkie, the vil- lage clerk. was instructed to communi- cate with Mr. Barron, whose services it says that his bill is only 8°25, that the fractures of the ribs were not serious, and that the patient will probably be able to do light work a month or six weeks after the accident; and, as Mr. Barron’s charge for legal advice and writing two or three lettcrscan’t amount to much, his demand on behalf of his client is simply preposterous, and can- not be entertained for one moment. Mr. Mitchell is, we think, justly entitled to reasonable compensation for the pain he has Suffered and his loss of time, but there is not the slightest probability of any serious or permanent results from the accident, as his ribs were fractured about half way between his back and his breast and will soon be as strong as ever. . _.~__"HW~_“-_“-N__ 1 Public Works. The Department of Railways and Canals has just completed the improve- ments here in connection with naviga- tion. The work consists of pointing the masonry; cutting a sluice twenty- six feet in width through the dam and alongside the slide for the better control of the water; six new piers, three below the railway bridge and three above, with guide booms attached. Hitherto great diflicnlty has been experienced in navigating the strong eddy below the locks and slide, caused by the heavy rush of water ovor the slide; but now . part of the surplus water will pass through the new outlet, and, following the natural course, will change the cur- rent below so that beats will have no more trouble in getting through the basin. The timber used in the con- struction of the work is of excellent quality, and the most of it was for- nished by our local mills. The iron and hardware were also supplied by our village merchants, and the labor per- formed by onr own citizens; hence the money spent in the work, nearly $3,000, has been circulated in this village and vicinity. These improvements were much needed, and the work reflects credit on the government engineer and the men in charge. Mr. Kennedy has gone to Bobcaygeon to complete'some work there, and Mr. Houston is busy adjusting the accounts in connection with the completion of the work. Worth Noting. The Orillia Packet says :â€" to be wrong. An unsuspected case of diphtheria will in this way distribute the germs of the disease all through the school, as the infected slate is used by first one and then another. Teachers in schools where slates are used would do well to pay attention to this point. Let each scholar keep his own slate, and, where diphtheria is suspected, the slates should he disinfected. Some Orillia schools have abolished slates and taken to the more cleanly method of exercise book and lend pencil. It may seem a small point. but it is well worth attenti- ing to. Many children have lost their lives through diphtheria caught at school." There is no diphtheria in Fcnelon Falls at present, we are happy to say ; but we have had it in the past. it is prevalent in Lindsay,and may make its appearance here at any moment. As no locality can surely reckon upon being exempt from an outbreak, all school- masters and school-mistresses should make a note of the above very import. ant suggestion and govern themselves accordingly if occasion arise. Personals. Mrs. Robert Podzer, of Lindsay, was _ at the Falls the latter half of last week. Mr. Robert DeLury of Manilla was; at the Falls on Friday and Saturday; last. Mr. R. M.

ORANGE SERMON.â€"We are requested to uive notice that the members of L. O. L. 996 and of Maple Leaf True Blue Lodge. Fcnelon Falls, will attend the Methodist church in full rcgalia next. Sunday morning, the 4th of No- vember, when a sermon appropriate to the occasion will be preached by llev. G.~W. McCall, the pastor. The breth- run will meet at the Orange hall at 9.30 a. In.. and will form in procession in time to reach the church a few minutes before the Commencement of the service at half past ten. No Menu CREDIT.â€"-l‘1ithel‘t0-it has been nothing unusual to see a few cents in a box in the post-ofiicc. the meaning of which was that the lessees of the box had been given that much credit, prob- ably to obviate the necessity of chang- ing a bill to paythc postage on a letter; but a few days ago strict orders were received to let nobody have so much as a post-card without payment on the spot ;. and, henccibrth. if‘a person want one and have no smaller sum than. a ten dollar bill, he will have to get it changed before he can obtain the card. KILLED IN MICHIGANâ€"On the 13th of December, 1891, George Wise, eldest son of Mr. Charles Wise, of this village, left for the States, and nothing more than rumors was heard of him from then until last Wednesday afternoon, when a telegram came from Elmira, Michigan, stating that George Wise had , been accidentally killed, and had a life insurance policy for $1.000 in favor of Charles Wise, and asking what was to be done with the remains. Mr. Wise telegraphed back to have them sent here for interment. but we do not yet know when they will arrive. Deceased was nearly 25 years old, having been born ' on January 8th, 1870. SHILOH’S CURE is sold on a guarantee- of Mr. F. A. McDiarmid. solicitor, con- veyancer, etc., who has decided to try whether Fcnclon Falls will not support a resident lawyer, as it did years ago before the closing of the mills caused the season of depression from which we are just beginning to cmcrze. Mr. McDiarmid is really a barrister, having recently passed his final examination, but there are certain formalities to be passed through before he can practise as such. We wish him success, partly he‘- causc we think he will deserve it, and partly because the presence of a lawyer in the village will be both a benefit and a convenience. Moan FOLKSâ€"On Tuesday two orl three of Hnwry & Sori’s employees com- menced digging holes for posts (of which there will be thirteen) to carry electric light and telephone wires from the red mill to the residences of Mr. Howry and Mr. Swan, which are oppo- site each other a short distance north of the business portion of the main street. The rows of poles, leaninz in different directions and at irregular distances apart. greatly disfigure our main theta the beauty of the falls; but they are all indications of progress and prosperity, and their hideoueness is cheerfully borne in consideration of their utility.
