' ~.;- r‘r'mmrh 4‘. "> ._.___ - Tin: Maritonisr Cocoonâ€"At the annual meeting of the Bay of Quinte conference held recently in Lindsay the usual transfers of ministers who have been three years in one locality were made. llev. T. 1’. Steel is to leave the Falls f--r Fraserville after Sunday next. and will be succeeded by Rev. B. H. Leitch. from Odessa. A Sunderland lady writes Dr. Neelands that he had made her a successful fit after having eight sets of teeth made in Toronto and elsew.here.â€"43t£ ACCIDENTâ€"On Wednesday after- noon Mr. John McGillivray got the thumb and first two fingers of his lelt hand slightly injured by a small circu- lur saw in the basement of the big mill; but. we do not know exactly how the accident happened. He went to Dr. E'rallam, who dressed: tho hurts. which are not at all serious, though the one on the thumb is rather painful, on ac- count of the nail being cut partly through. A Loss.â€"â€"A fine young cow owned by Mr. John Quibcll “came in " on Sunday last, took. sick, and. died on Tuesday. She was pasturcd on the “plains.” where there is said to be a colt that is in the habit. of chasing the cows, and it is thought that she was injured, as she Came home a few days ago all covrred with.mud’and with two or three long scratches on her body. She was only lour years old and so good a milker that M r. Q'uibell says‘hc would not havo taken 840 for her. Tue SLIDE Emersonâ€"The slide here will nee-l extensive repairs before it can he again used, as part of the bottom has fallen out. and a piece of the north wall at least fifty feet long has disap- peared. Tltc snmsh happened about 7:30 on Wednesday evening, daring the passage of a drive of Boyd do Co.’s logs, a good many of which are now piled up in the gap in the wall. There are many thoumuds of logs yet to- come down, and‘wc suppose they will have to be let over the dam. as has been done on other occasions when something has happened to the slide. STUCKâ€"in consequence of the river being blocked below the wharf with logs, the steamer Cr'reI/hotmd‘has to put up at the landing where D. G. Smith's shingle mill formerly stand. and on Tues day a waggon laden with brick that; she had brought from Lindsay got “mired” in the. half rotten sawdust with which the ground is thickly covered. The horses did their very best without a touch of the whip, but .the harder they pulled the deeper the wheels sank, and at last one-of the whifiln trees broke. There is a road allowance from the land- inp to Francis street, but nothing has ever been done to it, and a small ledge of shelly rock that could easily be clear- ed away forces vehicles to go by a-cir- euitous route over private property.. Srnmv.\t.1<s.â€"-â€"'l‘he Falls is fully as. well off for sidewalks as most places are, and our “ cit-y fathers " are taking steps to sustain the reputation of the village in that respect, as it was begin- ning to be in danger. A line new side- walk, with the boards crosswise, as. they ‘ should be, has been laid on the wc>t side of May street, and on both sides of Francis street west from Colbornc street to May street; the walk on Louisa Street has been put. in perfect order, and Francis street cast, is now being attend- od to, operations having been com- menced at Colbnrne street. but how far the new sidewalk is to extend has not yet been. decided. The old one has been taken up from the corner to Two- tney's hall, and a channel into the main drain is being dug to-prcvcnt, in. future, any accumulations of water. Some new walks are to be laid down or old ones repaired south of the river. but upon what streets we have not. heard. A Vasnannnn Mannâ€"Mr. William lfnlery ol Feuclon has u more that he bought when a foal thirty-one years ago, and she is quite lively yet». She is pei‘lt-ctly sound and without a blem- isll except. some white spots on each side of her neck. caused by wearing a yoke in her young days, when she thought nothing of unlawfully jumping l a lawful fence and would run away on slight provocation. \Vlten some “ gyp- sies," as they are called though they are no more gypsies that. we areâ€"were around her-v, list summer, one of them . examined the old mare's mouth. pro-l ununcnd hertwelvc year-sold and offered 1 )lr. l‘lliery a four-year-old Clyde colt ‘ for her and ten dollars; and only last week another member of the tray'elling fraternity said she was fifteen and of- fered a gool trade, for her, but Mr. Ellery has doth-mined to keep her as lJllLI ‘48 she lives. llorscs as old as she. is, and in older, would be quite com- tnon if they were all treated as they should be s l‘UNrruaixn huesâ€"It appears that some oi our village boys (for surely no one who has arrived at years of discre- tion would do it) have conceived and carried out the brilliant idea of punc- turing the tires of bicycles when their 1 i The west half of Lot No. 3. south of owners are out of sight. One of our wheelsmen says thata tire of his ma- chine has been twice puncturedâ€"once, some time ago, while he was in the. photograph gallery,and the second time on Tuesday last. lie had left it standâ€" ing somewhere near the swing bridge while he helped to open the lock» gates, and when he went back for it he found one of the tires in a Gtate ofcollapse from want of breath. He. took. it home and, aftera long and careful examination, lound a tiny hole, evidently made with a pin or needle, in the part of the tire that he knew was uppermost when he left the wheel. The same trick has been played lately upon other bicycles, and the perpetrators may be sure that, if caught, they will be punished with all the rigor of the law for malicious injury to property. Sir Adolphe Chapleau died at the Windsor hotel, Montreal, on Monday afternoon, in the 58th year of his age. BIRTIâ€"I’S.
