For a short time, during the worst of it, hail and rain. fell. in sheets, the lightning was perfectly appalling, and the roaring thunder sounded like the discharge of' heavy artillery. If such a juvenile year as 1898 can get up a storm like that. what will it not be able to do when six or eight months old?

This would leave only $5.50 to meet all other ex- penses. and. as everything there is very dear, men should think twice before go- ing. especially as laborers are said to be leaving all along the line in consequence of not having receivedany pay for sev- eral weeks. GOT A Dncxmo.â€"Last. Monday af- ternoon Mr. Daniel Essen, who lives- ahove Basedale, drove to the Falls in his wnggon, takingthc short cut- across Cameron lake. Nething happened un- til he had nearly reached the landing place at the chemical works, this side of the lake, when suddenly theicc broke, and waggou, horses and driver all went into the water, which fortunately was only three or four deep. Had the ice broken a few rods farther from shore, there would probably have been a trag- oly to lament instead of a comedy to laugh at.
