On this day they had to have an extra hand in the person of Mr. Barry Wins- low. as they had taken in that morning 14,000 pounds of milkâ€"the largest ever received at any one time in the history of the factory. The average output is 62 boxes per week, but this week they will make 80 boxes. Last year the output was 106,000 pounds and more milk is now being received at the factory than ever before. The Blackstock cheese always commands the highest prices in the market, and finds a ready sale, which reflects great credit on Mr. Stillman’s ability as a cheesemaker.

The sherifl made a statement of the financial condition of Mr. Hunt as nearly correct as he was able to do from the in- formation obtainable. He places the liabilities at about $54,000, representing 200 creditors, whose claims range from small deposits up to as large as $3,000 each. The assets are placed nominally at $73,000, but creditors realize that there will be a heavy shrinkage.

A DISGRACEFUL AFFAIRâ€"One of the most disgraceful scenes ever witnessed in Napanee took place on Saturday evening last, and before the afiair is settled a number of the participants will likely have good reasons, financially at least, to remember the date. Chief Adams ar- rested a man named Pybns for assaulting him while in the discharge of his duty. While conveying his man to the police station they were surrounded by a crowd of perhaps 500 excited men, some of whom were doi their best to prevent the officer from ta lug his prisoner to the police station. Others contented them- selves by urging on the rescuers, and cursing and threatening everybody who interfered. The chief held on to his man, however, and slowly worked his prisoner up street. At the corner of John- st. Constables Storms. Huff and Perry lent their assistance, and from there to the police office no further efforts were made to rescue the prisoner. Pybus was taken inside for a few minutes, during which the crowd gathered in front and renewed their threats. Pybus’ friends shouting out that they would not allow him to be taken to the lockup. The chief seeing that further trouble was in store, appeared in the doorway with a revolver in hand, and announced that he Intended to take his prisoner to the police station, and anyone interfering with him would be shot down. The crowd fell back at this display of authority, and no further opposition being met. Pybus in a few minutes was under lock and key. - fiBUILDIxG â€"Conductor McMshon has just completed for Mr. Scott, the new sable erected on_tho _on_e_ Igoentl} dug-0’7 boom to the WW ed by fire.

DB. WATSON Ramsesâ€"Friday evening last witnessed in Beaverton a scene very unusual in Canada, and one which will not: occur again in this comr munity for many years. The final retirement from the ministry of a clergy- : man, who, for close on half a century has§ been a prominent figure in the religious life of this locality, was an event which has been looked forward to with much interest. Rev. Dr. Watson was the first pastor of the Presbyterian church of Scotland in Thorah, and after a lapse of forty-seven years. during which time he has witnessed the great changes which have been the lot of the Presbyterian church in Canada, he retires from the charge its only pastor. To few men have been granted the good will and affection which has fallen to Dr. Watson, and he can, after nearly half a century, say he molds today a place in the affections of jhis people as real as it is deserved. Dr. iWatson came to Thorah a young man ‘fresh from college. He threw in his lot ‘ with a small and struggling congregation. determined to do his whole duty as a servant of God, no matter what difficulties might present. It was a wild and sparsely settled region at that time, and the townships of Thor-ah, Eldon, Mara and Georgina, which formed his field of labor, was far from being the inviting locality it is today. Instead of the trackiess bush which welcomed him in those early days, he now finds himself closely in touch of the highest forms of modern civilization, while the unbroken forest has given place to smiling fields and their accompaniment -â€"- prosperous towns and villages, in all of which the name of Rev. David Watson of Thorah is revered. Theieongreataion presented Dr. sners. Watson with an ad- dress and a handsome sum of money; and the gift of the bible class con- sisted of a student’s chair for the pastor» and a handsome upholstered chair for his aged partner. Among the ciergymen present were Rev. Mr. McDonald of Eden; Rev. McD. Duncan of Woodville Rev. Dr. J. L. Murray oi Kincarzline; Rev. N. Harris _of Piston; P! ENOLOGY.â€"â€"In my recent visit to the village of Kiumount doing phrenologicsl work, I visited the schools. It was at recess time, and it was pleasing to see the very orderly way the scholars came in and took their seats without much noise or confusion. I wasalso pleased at the very respectful attention paid to the few remarks I had to make; it showed not only the good conduct of the pupils, but the wise discipline of the teachers. Mr. A. E. Bryson. the principal, and Miss Northcott in the management of the schools. In viewing the school asa whole there were indications in the phrenologioal development of the pupils such elements of character-as fortitude, perseverance, concentration, generosity, thoroughness, politeness, mental. curios- ity and force, which if directed into prOper channels will enable them to grow into men and women capable of filling positions of trust and usefulness in the world.

While working with others at drawing stumps on his farm, the rod of the machine broke, and he was struck and knocked down by the end of the lever. The first news was that he was killed; then that he was very seriously, if not fatally, injured; but Dr. Wilson, who at- }tended him, says that though badly bruised no bones were broken...... ‘On Sunday evening while Mr. and Mrs. :Wiiliam Sims were driving from their ‘home near Powels’ Corners to the Metho- ;dist church at the Falls. and were within :‘about a mile of the village, their horse took fright at a boy jumping suddenly of a bicycle, and turning around, so near- iy upset the buggy, that Mrs. Sims was thrown out and had both bones of her left leg broken between the knee and ankle, besides receiving a severe blow just above the nose, in consequence, she thinks, of falling against a rail. . . . . .On Saturday last Mr. Geo.

Too Banâ€"It is too bad that the aged reprobate who writes our leading articles, can never leave home without making an exhibition of himself, and bringing this journal into disrepute. He had to take in the farmers picnic. last Saturday. and could not get through the day without creating a scene that was shocking. Shortly after dinner he was noticed strolling off with a very charming young lady of North Verulam, and carrying on simply nohow behind his old gingham umbrella, that he had open. Presently the most piercing shrieks spreads fright and dismay throughout the merry makers, and on a rush being made to where the terrifying sounds came from, Smifi, the young lady, and the umbrella, were found in a whirling mix of chaotic wreck. Which was linen duster. and which be longed to the lady was nndistinguishable. Both parties were franticly clawing around. and each other, between screams and imprecations. Smiif declared it was caterpillars. There might be some excuse for an inexperienced young lady with a caterpillar on the inside of her corset, and no other apparent means of getting in out than by standing on her head, but a man who cannot discover three or four tent caterpillars in his trousers without cutting up like a born idiot in a fit, dosen’r know anything: Doesn’t know_enough to chew gain without recipe, ought tori-eligiéhily sbltaln from picnic. pop and pretty girla.â€"Independent.
