She was attended by her sister Lillian of Tweed, and the groom by his brother. George Jewell, of Fenclon Falls.

Having spent a very en- joyable evening the friends retired, ex- pressing best wishes for al. concerned in their new relationship. The bride is one of Fenelon's most highly esteemed young ladies, and the groom is an in- dustrious and popular young man. We: Personals. Miss Swanton of Toronto is visiting her aunt, Mrs. T.

Point, reached the Falls last Sunday morning in time to attend church, and spent the rest of the day until 6.30 p. m. at. the resrdence of Mrs. Ilaud. Powles’s Corners. (Correspondence of the Gazette.) Fall wheat has already been em in this part. The McGee Bros. have the heaviest and best in the section. about 30 bushels to the acre all around and a time sample. On one field they expect a yield of 35 bushels to the acre.

Edwards oi Manillu Was through here and called on us. He represents Chase Bros.’ nurseries. There is great joy at. present in the home of Mr. J. C. Parrishâ€"a bouncing baby girl. m A PM or- MONEY.â€"-During the pres- ent week J. W. llnwry &. Sons have paid out no least a sum than $12,500 in wages alone. Where is the man who says they are “ not much good to the Falls? ” A Cow Kit.t.an.-â€".~\ few days ago a cow owned by Mr. George Littlcton got upon the railway track, and, disregard- ing the warning skrieks of the engine of an approaching train, was run ever and so badly injured that her recovery was impossible. and she was therefore promptly killed to put her out of pain. l)B.\‘1‘at..â€"-Dr. Neelands, dentist, of Lindsay, will be at the McArthur House, Fencinn Falls. on the arrival of the Greyhound on Monday ovening, and will remain over Tuesday, the 21st. Ilt‘ will have a complete gas (vitalized air) apparatus for painless extracting, also the best pain ohtunders. Call early, as he can only remain one day. MURDBt‘tEmâ€"A slate colored cat with an orange ribbon 'round its neck was lying dead on the main street, nearly opposite the post-office, early on Mon-| day morning, and the fox-terrier owned by Mr. Barker, (who came to the Fallsl a few days ago with pianos and organs l l‘« sale) is suspected of having mur-i dered it. If the dogs in town would} kill 75 per cent. of the cats, and a lion or ti:er wo-ild come along and kill 95 per cent. in} the dogs, the village would be a much pleasanter place to live in than it is at present. mill, actually went to work again on Monday last, in less than a month after his rightarm. side and leg were literally parboiled. It is said to be exceedingly difficult to kill a French Canadian, especially when spiritual exaltation makes him almost incapable of physical snfi‘ering. and it certainly appears to be so in Mr. Chabot’s case. T00 Banâ€"A few weeks ago we sent accounts to a number of far away sub- scribers who owe for from two to six volumes of the Gazette, and only one of them remitted the amount of his. indebt- edness. It is too bad, but no doubt the others intend to Settle as soon as they can spare the necessary trifle, and we hope it will be before long, as business is always dull with us about midsum- mer and overdue dollars are anxiously looked for and prove exceedingly ac ceptable. Tan GLoanos TWELFTH.-â€"-On Sun- day last, the 12th of July, the Orange- men and True Blues of the Falls and its vicinity attended the Methodist church, the pastor of which, Rev. T. 1’. Steel, preached an appropriate sermon, and on Monday the brethren went by special train to Kiumount, where the day was celebrated in grand style. Amongst the speakers was Sam Hughes, who, it was remarked, did not boast of his ” victory " on the 23rd ult., and. for a wonder, said very little about himself. After the Orangemen returned to their lodge room from the church On Sunday they passed a hearty vote of thanks to Rev. Mr. Steel for his excellent sermon. THE GALWAY MAJORITY. «As it is persistently stated in some parts of the back country that Galway gave a major- ity for Sam Hughes at. the late election, we give the figures for the two polling divisions in that township from the official returns as published in the War- tier of the 3rd instzâ€"Galway East, 11 for Hughes, 61 for McLaughlin and 4 for Delamerc; majority for McLaughlin. 50. Galway West, 20 for Hughes, 36 for McLaughlin and 17 for Delamere ; majority for McLaughlin, 16. TOi'll lil.ijOl‘lhy for McLaughlin in the whole township, 66. A COLLISIONâ€"A good while after dark last Saturday night Mr. R. B. Sylvester was driving home to the Falls, and. just as he turned the corner at the boundary, near Mr. J. B. Fisk’s, a rig coming from the village turned it also and a collision occurred. Soon after the involuntary antagonists had parted company M r. Sylvestcr's mare began to cough so violently that he got out and examined her and found that she was bleeding from a wound in her chest. Upon reaching the Falls he put her under the shed at Twomey’s hotel, and then went for Dr. Mason, whose house is only a few yards distant. When they returned to the shed the mare was lying down, but got up again, and the doctor, upon probing the wound, found that a shaft of the buggy with which she col- lided had penetrated to the depth of seven inches at the base of the wind- pipe, and that she was actually breath- ing through the hole. He did what he could for her and she is still alive, but there is not much hope of her recovery. PEDDLERS.â€"Onc of our business men asked us to note the fact that peddlers of dry goods and other wares go through the country paying in trade ten cents per dozen for eggs which they sell for cash in Lindsay at eight cents per dozen. This means, of course, that an article sold for eight cents cash has two cents added to the price when it is given in exchange for a dozen of eggs; but the innocent. farmers' wives think they are getting ‘25 per cent. more for their “ hen fruit" from the peddlers than from the village merchants, who allow for butter, eggs. etc., as much as they can get for them and pay for them in goods at cash prices We are told also that peddlers' licenses in this county are so low that the holders have an uni-air advantage over store-keepers who pay rents, taxes and other rates. RUNAWAY TRUCKS.â€"â€"About half past 11 o‘clock last Friday night llowry 5‘: Sons' yard engine drew a train of a dozen trucks laden with lumber from the mill to a distant part of the pilin__r ground; and after it had left thcm and gone ed for some empty trucks, the laden ones by some means got started and Commenced to run back towards the mi 1. The muino whistle was blown vigorously and persistently J.) a warning frightfully scalded in Mr. John A. Ellis'a slight that the cars only punched a hole {abouts foot square through the rear , wall of the office; had it been steeper they would have gone clear through and temporarily blockaded the Queen’s high- way. The blowing *of the whistle brought a great many of our villagers from their beds under the impression that there was a fire, and, not seeing any, they went back wondering what in the world all the row was about. o- A lot of land on Cornhill, in London, with a front of twenty-four feet, facing the Bank of England, was sold recently at a price equivalent to 812,000,00 an acre, or about $285 a square foot. A number of Stayner cats have been poisoned this summer for killing chick- ens. It has now transpired that the cats were not guilty. A festive family of skunks did the bush. :53. A report on the state farms in north Carolina, which are operated by con- victs, shows there are now 5000 acres in corn and 400 in cotton, and that the condition of the crops is 25 per cent. better than last year at this date. In a lot of old paper stock received lately at a mill in Andover, Connecticut, was a Bible, the inscription in which reads: “ This Bible was used in the pulpit by the Rev. Stephen West, pastor in Stockbridge, Mass, from 1759 to 1818." A man near Newkirk, Okla., recently took his neighbor’s cat, saturated its tail with kerosene and set it on fire, thinking it; would run home and burn the neighbor out. Instead it turned and jumped into the barn of the par- petrutor and burned it down. Apropos of Queen Victoria’s entrance upon the sixtieth year of her_reign, it may be noteworthy that the walking stick which she carries in her old age is made of a branch of the historic oak of Charles II. Fastened to its top is a tiny Indian idol, part of the loot of Scr- ingapatam. A curious court-martial case was held at Chatham a few days ago, when two Royal Engineers were sentenced to 28 days’ hard labor for desertion. It Was stated at the enquiry that the prisoners were born on the same day. commenced going to school together, started work together, enlisted in the army together, deserted together, were arrested together and tried by court martial together. An unusual number of persons have applied at- the Pasteur Institute in New York city for treatment to protect them against rabies following dog bites since the beginning of this year, says the. Sun. The success of the treatment so far has been remarkable. There has not; been a single death among the patients an far this year. the institute doctors assert, and, according to last year’s report, the-re. were but two deaths among those treated. In only one case do the doctors admit that the treatment was a failure. BIRTIâ€"IS. Moos.--On Sunday, July 5th, the wife of Mr. Edward Moon. of Vernlnm, of a daughter.
