Friday, Oct. 4th, 1895'. A Bank at the Falls. The Toronto Financial Corporation, whose head office is in Toronto and who are a company incorporated for. the pur- pose of doing a general banking busi- ness in ‘places which are considered too small for the opening of a regular char- tered bank, have decided to open a branch in our village. Premises have been secured in the McArlhur Block, and it is expected that everything will be in readiness for the opening about the 15th inst. The Company has a sub- scribed capilal of $650,000, and its directorate and shareholders are com- posed of' many of Toronto’s wealthiest citizens. such as George A. Cox, J. J. Kerr, Q. C., W. R. Brock, E. J Davis, M. R, P , John Richardson, M. P. P., which leaves the question of financial reliability above doubt. They have branches in East Toronto, Pickering {and Richmond Hill, and: have several other places under consideration. They will have, in connection with the branch here, :1 Savings Bank department, and will receive deposits of $1 and upwards. for which they will pay the highest cur- rent rate of interest, and, will be pre- ipared to issue drafts on any banking town in Canada, the United States or Great Britain. The position of local manager has been offered to and swept- ed by Mr. H. J. Lytle, the company thinking that a man acquainted in the vicinity would possibly be more likely to make-the business asuccess than an entire-stranger ;_ M r._Dnrtnell, a. son of Judge Dartnell of Whitby, will be teller and ledger keeper.

We spent Thursday of last week at the Lindsay Central Exhibition, which was Formally opened early in the after- noon by Sir Mackenzie Bowell, Premier of the Dominion, whose speech from the platform erected for: his accommodation .had but t'ew hearers, as everybody knows that he became Premier by a sort of fluke, and by the time he had spoken at very. few minutes it became evident. that» he wasn’t much of an ioraton-and that be-hnd‘notbing to ofi’er his hearers but the ordinary worn-out Tory platitudes. Before Sir Mackenzie reached the dizzy height upon which he at presont staggers, he was respected and esteemed as an honest man of very lair- abilities,-aud the industrious and painstaking head of' a department; but- he has availed himself of' the oppor- tunity afforded by his elevation of'shnwâ€" ing that be either “ hasn't the courage of his convictions,” or placespelf before principle, and on Thursday the people in Lindsay availed themselves of' the opportunity afforded them of showing how much he had sunk in their estima- tion by giving him an exceedingly luke warm reception and gettingnp a: very small crowd to listen to his eloquence. The show was as good and the attend- ance as large as usual, and the weather as fine as could be desired, but a great deal of dissatisfaction was caused by the exclusion of the public-From the poultry department during nearly the whole of the afternoon of the second day of' the show, when the ground was crowded with visitors who came from considerable distances by rail or boat and who had to leave again at 5 o’clock.

The allies went east. and Major Hughes, in last week’s Il’urder, gives a stirring account of how they overtook the tramps and pursued .them along the track; of how they sent bullets whizzing past the l‘ellows’ ears, and made thesand, gravel land chips fly bef‘drc, behind and around them; of how some of the fugitives were arrested, and how one of them, a handsome young fellow (but not so handsome as Sam) cried like a child, and said that what surprised him and his palswms that the Farther off they got from their pursuers the closer the bul- lets seemed to come; but that doesn't surprise us at all, because it is much easier to barely miss a near object. than a distant one, and, if' the distance be- tween them had been still greater, two or three trials for manslaughter. if' not for murder, might have resulted from the affair. Towards the end of his narrative the Major says: “Had the constable From Bowtnuuville come down then telephoned for, he could have ap- pointed the firing party special con- stables, and then the tramps would have heard the bullets whistle closer," which shows that, he was well aware that he and his companions, in shooting without license, were indulgingr in unlawful sport. There is an old say- ing that “ firearms shouldn’t be trusted to chi.dren or fools"; and as Sam [lug-hes is, upon his own confession, outrageously indiscreet in tlteluse ofhis 'l'lfl‘u, he ought to be deprived of it fin-thwith. m- Accidents. On Wednesday, September I'Sth, Mr. Francis Hall, an employee in one of l’lowry & Sons' shantics out north, was tripped by the end of a-log, which was being drawn along the ground by a span of horses, and thrown on to an axe, which inflicted a deep triangular wound, about two inches in one direc- tion andtanrinch and a half'in the other, on his right wrist. He went to Hali- burtou, but as the doctor there did not dress the wound, he came to the Falls. two or three days after the accident, and had it attended to by Dr. Wilson, and the patient isdoing well.. On Friday of last week while. Mr. Thomas Cook,_onc ol' McDougall, Bran- don & Co’s teamsters, was unloading barrels of‘ coal oil from a waggon, he got his right- hand so badly jammed be- tween two-of. them that the skin of the inside of the third and’ fourth fingers was burst open close to the palm of the handpvhich was also somewhat injured. ."l‘he wound, which was dressed. by Dr. .Wilson, has caused a great deal of pain, which is now beginning to abate, but Mr. Cook will necessarily be laid up for some little time. On Saturday last a» small piece of wood was thrown from a saw in Mr. Pngsley’s mill in this village, and struck. M r. Stephen Wessels, an employees, on the right eye, bruising the inner part of the lower lid very badly and slightly wounding the eyeball. Dr. Wilson did everything that was possible to allay inflammation and counteract the effects of the accident, which was so serious that. Mr. Wessels has been laid up until yesterday. On Tuesday last, the lat instant, Wesley Poguo, about. 12 years old, son of Mr. Joseph Force of Semervillc, went to Mr. James Armstrong’s on the next concession to go shooting with some other boys, and while they were in the woods a rifle in the bands of one of Mr. Armstrong’s sons was accidentally discharged, and the bullet passed through the outside of young I’ogue’s right thigh, not far below the hip. Fortunately, the wound was not very serious, as the points of entrance and exit of the ball were only about an inch apart. but it was sufficiently severe to render medical aid neeessury,nnd Dr. Gr'lham was soon in attend .noe upon the patient at Mr. Armstrong':. The doctor did not learn how the accident hap- pcncd, but was told that the boys were Wu). Brokenshirc. limclnlc. Mr. A.
