Fenelon Falls, March 8th, 1893. it}: Fcuelon Falls Gazette. Friday. September 8th, 1898. Home Rule. The Home Rule Bill was disposed of, as far as the House of Commons is con- cerned, on Friday night, its third read- ing having been carried by a majority of 34â€"30} against 267. In his speech before the vote. Mr. John Morley, chief secretary for Ireland, said that “alter seven and a half years of controversy this popular assembly, which was virtu- ally supreme, was about to pass the Home Rule Bill for Ireland. What- ever might be done elsewhere to delay, resist. or obstruct the bill, this solemn declaratiOn could never be cancelled or recalled. Wherever Englishmen toiled, hoped, yearned, wherever there Were Englishmen and Scotchmen weary of the inveterate stain on the fame and honor of their country", they would presently know that this House had taken the final steps toward the true incorporation of Ireland into a united people.” The Lords are opposed to the Bill and will, it is declared, whip in every possible vote against it; but the London correspond- ent of the New York Sun says: “ They know that they have got to pass the Home Rule Bill within the next, year or two as certain as fate, and the only question now is how much sport their . Lordships will dare to show before they take their medicine. Home Rule as a predominant issue was really wound up and finished last night. What" audi- ences want now is a good, hot, straight talk about democracy versus the House of Lords.” Trouble Amongst the Tories. According to The Toronto News the Young Liberal Conservatives of the Province have stolen a march on the Empire, which thought it had quashed the movement they made some time ago towards holding a young men’s conven- tion. The “ boys” said nothing, there- by causing the Empire to cherish the delusion that it had sat on them effect- ually, and all the time they were quiet- ly making arrangements for a grand gathering in the Auditorium on the 13th and 14th inst, to which about forty Provincial clubs will send at least three hundred delegates The object- of the convention is said to be to “ assert the right of the young men of the party to participate in its management”; and in order that the youngsters may attain their alleged right. they will suggest that Haggart, Costigan, Caron, Bowel], Clarke Wallace, Carling and Curran shall step down and out, which sugges- tion the seven veterans will of course laugh to scorn. What with one thing and auothcra cioud, not only bigger than a man's hand but fully as lareo as a wet blanket, is hanging over the Tory camp, for trouble is threatened by other causes than the avowed desire of the juveniles "or the sweets of oflice. A good many mumbch [of the party arc honestly in favor of a more sweeping re- form of the tariff than the potentates of the red parlor will permit the Govern- ment to make; and many others, who hardly giie a thought to the tariff, are (unlike Sum Hughes) strongly opposed to following a'Rmnan Catholic leader. In a word, (Lere is a devil of discord at work in the Tory. party, which is not to gruous elements of which the present . tence. be wondered at, considering the broom Tory Government is composed. Sheep Killed by Dogs. There are few things more unspent- ing to a farmer than to'go' out in the morning and find that during the hours of darkness a number of his shoep have been killed by does, or so mangled as to render itneccssnry to put them out of their misery ; yet that has been the ex- pcrience. within the past few days. of over a dozen farmers who live in this vicinity, some - on one side of the Falls and some on the other. As far as we can learnâ€"and our information, if not perfectly correct, is not far astrayâ€"the names of the losxcrs- and the numbers of sheep destroyed are as follows :-â€"Thos. Johnston, 7; Thos. Cashore; 3; Robert Walsh. 8; Joseph Chambers. 10; John Pcrryman, 3; William Wilson, 3; And- rew Rutherford,4; William Jordan. 4; William Littlcton, 4; R. Skucc, 3'; 'Robert Jackctt, 2'; J'ames Graham. 4' and David Logan, 7; making a total of 62 valuable animals worried by a couple of curs not worth the powder and shot necessary to put an end to their exis- It is very likely that most: of the damage was done by the same ‘two dogs as they were seen at their murderous work or shortly after it by several of the farmers, all of whom say that they were bothsmall, and that one was white with two or three yellow patches and the other a black-and-tnn. This description exactly {its two dogs that have been around the main street of our villa-go (and almost invariably together) fer along time poshâ€"some say for over two years. The white and yellow one, which was blind of ancyc, is believed to have been lost in, or to have strayed to, the village, as it was never known to have any home; and, if the other one had any ownes, nobody ap- pears to know who it is. During the time the sheep killing has been going on the dogs have only been seen occa- sionally in the village for a few minutes at a time; but on Wednesday evening, a little before fio’clock, they made their appearance on the main street, and Con- stable Jones, who but} been on the look- out for them, put an end to both with his Winchester rifle. Though there was scarcely a doubt of their guilt, it , was thought improbable that they had done all the damage, andvon Wednesday night two other dogs were about to makearaid upon some sheep of Mr. Henry Austin’s in a field at the hend‘of Colbornc street; but fortunately James Stevens had been put on guard with a gun and fired at the curs, which immeâ€" diately turned tail and ran. There are altogether too many dogs both in town and country, and if the two that were shot on Wednesday had been killed long ago, as they ought to have been, when it. was known that nobody claimed: them, it is probable that a loss of be- tween one and two worth of mutton would have been avoided. ' We Don’t Believe It. Exâ€"reevc Haycock, of Cataraqui, says that “the sparrows have chased away the birds which used to kill insects and the result is that there are more insects devouring plants and trees than before the sparrows came across the ocean.” We don’t believe it. Our facilities for keeping an eye on the sparrows in this village have been exceptionally good; and while we never saw them do any- thing worse than chase otherbirds that approached too near to their nests, they may be seen any day, and almost any hour, eating all kinds of insects, especial- ly grasshoppers, which are not one-tenth as numerous in the corporation as they were before the arrival of the sparrows. In our opinion the little foreigners are much maligned birds and do more good than harm. On sparrows as well as politics and almost every subject the great majority of people repeat what they read or hear, without making the lcnrt attempt to ascertain whether it is true or false, and that is why so many delusions are afloat. True, the sparrows “ go for " ripe grain during the short time it is exposed to their attacks in the field, and no doubt take toll from various kinds of fruitâ€"â€"just like several natural birds we could mention; but during a considerable portion of the year they subsist on insects, as will be very evident to anybody who will take- the trouble to watch them. Therefore, regardless of what the cx-Rccvo ol' Catnraqui may say, we raise our voice in behalf of the sparrows, and shall continue to do so until they have been condeman on better evidence than any we have yet. heard. A few days ago a farmer of analtrio, Quebec, had his 27th child christened. A Hamilton man has been fined 85 for refusing to answer questions put to him respectng his income by the as- scssor. hundred dollars" The Law of Estray's. Towards the end of every fall, when the pastures begin to fail, farmers who have lost cattle become desirous of' recovering thcm- and those who have estray animals on their premises want their owners to take them away. Every fall, too, there are many, anxious inquirers as to what the law or Oiitario‘ says regarding e‘strays, and for their" information we publish the following, which they will do well to“ paste in their hats " or put where they can easily refer to it :â€"-- . V “ A: person taking up estray stock- shall give notice- of such taking. up by publishing three times in a- weekly newspaper, if one is published within the section where the astray was taken,. and if the property is not called for‘ within three weeks after the first insen- tion of'the notice the finder shall go to the justice of the peace and take oath to the findingr and advertising. If the property is’not claimed witliinecne year, and should not exceed $50- in value, it then bcl0ngs to the party taking the same up. ff over 350 it shall be adverr tised by the justice and sold, and the exceeds of‘ all expenses shall be paid” Aer. . over to the country treasurer; person taking up an estray and neglect- and appraised? shall be liable to a fine" of 320'. The estray applies to any personal property which may be‘fou‘ud: in like manner." ' ' diliarrowdilscape. Last Friday evening Mrs. C'epha's Barley of Verulam, whose husband and sons were away at the time, went from. the house to the pasture field to drive up the cows to be milked; and as soon as sherenched- themthe quietest and! most pottedl one of the lot made a rush at her and knocked her down, and then, commenced to paw and bowl so-violently that a yearling bull and a steer got excited, ran up, and: joined in the performance. Mrs; Burley‘s frantic screams attracted the attention of the nest; neighbors, who hastened to her away. Fortunately she was not seriously hurt, but she had several bad bruises, her hip was cut, and, but for the resist- ance of her clothing, she would probably have been. killed, as a horn of one of the down on her abdomen diagonally ups ward as far as her breast. She told. Dr. Wilson, who was in attendance as 'soon as possible, that she could not account for the attack made upon her by the cow, except that, as it was late and getting dark, she had hastened-to- the field and appeared hurriedly and suddenly amongst the cattle. _.~__-_____&_ _â€"â€"â€".
