The season’s out of shingles was also burned, but all the lumber and most of the firewood fortunately escaped destruction. The cause of the fire is unknown. It was first seen in the shingle department, on the south-west side of the mill, by Mr. Geo. VVhissile, the watchman ; but the flames spread so rapidly and the smoke was so dense that he was unable to do anything. A strong west wind was blowing, and the building was destroyed in a very short time. The shed containing the Chemical Co‘. lime kiln, opposite the mill but on the other side of the rail- way track, was also burnt. The wind carried the sparks directly on to the houses on Fidler’s hill and Louisa street, and as far as the Catholic church shed. Several of the roofs took fire, but the flames were promptly ex- tinguished. The loss is estimated at $11,000, with an insurance of $6,500. {fig-Law 'v'ote Postponed. _On account of the date set for voting 011 the Art Iron Co. by-law coming in exhibition week, a postâ€" ponement to September 12th has been A public meeting to The company has sent. to.

This list totals $25,695, and shows that the. company is doing business and has- the. confidence of the best class of customers. With reference to the objection that has been raised that the town. proposes to give the company, too. much, the example of other towns in bonusing industries is considered to be sufficient-answer. A western Ontario- town, for instance, advertises in last Saturday’s Globe .that it is prepared to give “free, with the usual exempt-ions, on certain con- ditions as to the employment of labor, a factory building 40.11120, two floors, of concrete construction, specially co11-~ lstructed asa leather goods factory, with a boiler and electric light dyna- mo, and anabundant supply of nat- ural gas for all purposes.” ' A Canadian _Flying Machine. Mr. Wm. Gibson, of Victoria, B. C. who is visiting his fathei -in law, M‘i. .Andrew Gillis, of this village, explain ed to the Gazette, the other day, the featuies of the Gibson 1e1oplane, which he is now at weik perfecting, and which is the. only aeroplane so far constructed, that is properly entitled to be called a. Canadian machine. Mr. Gibson’s main idea. is t0.construct a machine that will be safe for peOple who are not experts to use. He says the cause of the fatal accidents that have been so numerous lies in the fact that in all the airships yet made the} engine is placed directly behind and close to the aviator’s seat, and that the front of the machine is the heavi- est part of it. The consequence is that \1 hen anything goes 11 ron" the machine falls fiont f01en1ost,and when it st1ikes the giound the engine is jolted donndiiectly on top of the 11111.05 naut, 'wh'o canhardly escape being killed or injured. To overcome this defect, Mn. Gibson has substituted for. the small rear steering pla11e,.or,.tail, a plane of, the full size and same shape as the front one ; and, _to stillfurther balante the machine,l 1e is placing the engine below the aviatm, thus lower- ing the centre of gravity. PassengeIS can also be carried below if required. Models thus constructed will the inx ventor says, right themselves if stintâ€" ed upside down. U} 1 to date, M12Gihâ€" son has made about fifty models, and has spent about $10, 000 in experiâ€" ments, besides his time. The machine he is now completing is driven by a two hundred pound sixty horseâ€" power engine, which he built himself. He is confident that the genezal use of aeroplanes is only a. question of a few years. Address and Presentation. On Wednesday evening, 16th inst., the regular meeting of the Parish W01 11- crs of St James' Church was held at the home of Mrs. W. A. Bishop, who is shelt- 1y leaving town to reside in Midland. Mrs. Bishop tendered her resignation as treasurer of the Society, Mrs Swanton being elected to fill the vacant office. Mrs Cameron, on behalf of the society, presented Mrs. Bishop with a handsome brass and ebony tea um, and the' followâ€" ing address was read by Mrs. Wm Bur- goyne. My Dear Mrs. Bishop. We, a few of your friends and co- workers of St James Church, Eenelon Falls, feel deeply your departure from us. Since joining our Society, you have been a faithful and zealous worker, both flinancially and sociably, and you will be much missed by 11s indeed We now ask you to accept this small proof of our lovey and gratitude, a little tea urn, and while using it just think of us and how we are missing the sunshine of your dear presence.

Signed on behalf of the Parish kaers of St James’ Church Mus. BURGOYNE. August 16th,1911.
