IN OPERATIONâ€"The Fenelon Falls power-house has been in full operation since last Friday evening, when, for the first, Lindsay was lighted by electricity transmitted from here, everything work- int;r satisfactorily from the word “ go.” The power-house is worth visiting, and the immense motor and mysterious fix- tures are calculated to fill uninitiated observers with awe, while placards bearing the words. “ High Voltageâ€"â€" Dangerous” worn them against touch- - inc: any of the “shocking” things around them, and thereby incurring the risk of sudden death.

A PERILOUS Friarâ€"When the flag stag, eighty-two feet high, was erected near-the lock-master’s oflicc three or four years ago, it was provided with a rope with which to haul upa flag when any day or event was to be celebrated ; but, from exposure to rain and continu- nll threshing: against. the flagstafl, the rope wore'out and broke. As it was necessary to have a. new one before the Queen’s birthday, Mr Robert Caccll was employed to put. it up, which he did on Tuesday last. He made his fit‘st,uttmnpt on Monday, but, owing to the high wind and something being wrong “with the pulley at the top be deferred the perilous feat. Ulllll next day, when it was performed in a short time. As the flaastalf is very slender, the wind on Monday cauSed it to sway feat-fully, and many of the persons who were watching Mr. Uacell mention- ed various large sums' of money that it would take to tempt them to make theascent. ‘ METHODIST CIIUttcu NOTES.â€"Last Thursday evening, at the close of the prayer service, which was well attended, Mrs. E.
