The Salvation Army has hit upon a new idea forraising funds. Last year, Comman- (lant Booth inaugurated a plan for clearing poor corps and officers of deht, by instituting annual Harvest Festivals throughout the Do- minion. This year, the dates will he as fol- l()\\'5:"â€"N01'tli-\\'cs‘t and British Columbia, August 261h, 27th and 28th: Ontario and ‘Maritime Provinces, September 2nd, 3rd and 4th. 1. L.‘ A "wand (‘nnh‘nl In Toronto, there is to be a great he Thanksgiving Exhibition from September to the 15th, or the same dates on v the Toronto Industrial Exhibition is 1 held. ‘ 7 1“- 5L.“ llCl\l- Great efforts are being made by the local officers and corps to canvass the town (or city) for contributions in ltind of all description. Fruits, vegetables, grains, barley, oats, wheat, and eyen straw for the Circle Corps horses, all are solicited. A special point is being made to, to secure contributions of live stock, which will be sent forward to the To- ronto Exhibition to be used in supplying the Social Instutions of the Army with meat. Last year, three thousand dollars were netted in this way to assist the poor corps, and there is every prospect of a far larger sum than that being raised on this occasion. n ‘ m . .. “FAME/m m lw n D , The Toronto Exhibition promises to he at most attractive affair. (lifts of all kinds will be forwarded and tastefully exhibited there. The Salvationists of the far \V'est propose to contribute wheat, cattle and canned goods; whereas Newfoundland is being asked to contribute tinned and dried fish. Wood, oil and coal are also solicited, and manufacturers are being asked to give some of their wares. Commandant Booth hopes, by this means, to replenish the store houses of the Social In- stutiwns and Homes for sick officers, so that it will be unnecessary to spend money on household goods. His contention is that, while the dollars are scarce, the land is over- flowing with good things, and he calls upon those who have enough to eat and to spare, to i remember out of their plenty their more unfor- tunate fellow creatures.-â€"33-I.

On Sunday last a few of our sports got into a queer fix. They contemplated a pleasant sail down Into the lower lakes, and everything went merry as a marriage bell until they arrived at Bobcaygeon. Here however, they were destined to c0me to grief, and learn that all policemen are not of the same family. They found that the bridge had to be swung, this they did in genuine lock-master style. Then they had to “lock” through, and proceeded to open the first gate, but neglected to see that the second gate was properly closed. This little piece of neglect would in a very short time have drained Sturgeon Lake dry as a mill-pond and added greatly to the real estate at Sturgeon Point. Just at this particular point the wide-wake policeman who regulates the citizens of ’Caygeon hove into sight and brought matters up with a turn. He would not permit them to go through the locks nor would he permit them to pilot their craft back, as it necessitated the swinging of the bridge a second time. It was here that they discov- ered they were “in it.” After a time some genial spirits arrived and induced the “ cop,” to take a walk and thus enable the boys to enjoy their first experience as “blockade runners.’ On \Ionday night there were great doings at the 3'1 ntlon Army barracks. Mr. \Vm. Hy Mince wasmarried to Miss Edith Cald- well. Mr. Geo. Lindsay was best man, while Miss Lieut. Hellman helped the bride through. The Rev. Mr. Greener did the knot tying, as the law requires, while Ensign Coombes did the army part. On Monday last Mr. Alex. \V. \Vray, of the C. 1’. R. freight department, l’eterboro, passed away at Chemong. “Bully,” as he was known to his intimate acquaintances, was a son of the late Alex. \\'ray, of Lindsay. lie was a young man of much promise and his demise, at the early age of 24 years, will be heard of with unfeigned regret. The funeral tool; place at Lindsay, yesterday, and was largely attend- ed. A pilgrimage will leave Lindsay on Monday, August let, by regular train, at 10.30 a.m., connecting with special train at l’eterboro, at 1.10 p.m., for St. Anne De Beauprc. Return tickets $5.75;children $2.90. A large num- ber of persons will no Edoulit avail them- selves of this opportunity to visit St. Anne’s and take in Montreal and Quebec at the same time. On Tuesday morning Mr. james \Yorkman, who was driving a team at the Sylvester works, met with an accident which will lay him up for some weeks. He was helping to unload some lumber and the horses suddenly started off. A pile of lumber fell on Mr, \Vorkman and his right leg was broken in two places. l)r.

Narrow Escape. â€"â€"On Wednesday Mr. John Burgess, of Verulam, accompanied by his two sons, William and Edward, visited Lindsay, About 12.30 o‘clock, after their business had been transacted they were making preparations for their early return home. Mr. Burger“: into Mr. A. Campbell’s store to g“ ‘ parcels, leaving his two sons in the \‘elizeiel outside. The animal becoming restless William thought it would be best to get out of the buggy and take the anirc“: by the head. Just as he jumped :ht- urinal made a bound forward jirkiu ’ - " out of Mr. Burgess hands and making a wild dash down Kent-st. the reins flying on each side ot him. Little Eddie Burgess, about eight or nine years of age, grasped each side of the seat and cried whoa at the top of his voice but which only apparently urged the beast to greater flights of speed. In trylng to take the turn at the foot of Kent-St the rig collided with the. sidewalk opposite Britton Bros. store and upset, but the animal did not stop, but rushed madly along. passing between the building and hydrant out into Ridout-st. Just here Mr. Fred Howe ran out and caught the horse by the head, and after being dragged as far as Dr. Kempt’s residence succeeded in stopping it. The voung boy who had been under the rig from the corner crawled out as soon as the horsewas stopped. He was badly frightened and com- plained of pains in his back. His escape from death was almost miraculous.

About 250 L ‘rne. went down and saw a rather one sided ga. a Cobourg won by a score of 19 too. The game was a fair and square one. It was played in the agricultural park and Mr. Geo. M. Stephens, who acted as umpire, gave every satisfaction. Lindsay’s playing was execrable and twenty-one men never reached first base. About 700 people were present and the visitors were used like gentlemen. ' â€"I\Ir. T. W. Evans, of Yelverton, arrived home on Friday last, after a most pleasant voyage, from Glasgow, Scotland, where he had taken a very fine consignment of roadsters. Mr. Evans could not see the force of returning empty-handed, and has, therefore, brought with him three fine Clydesdale stallions and a handsome Shetland, all of which landed in fine condition. The Clydes are all of grand quality, all prize-winners at the greatest society shows in Scotland, and all were districtzhorses at high premiums. The Scottish Farmer, in a very flattering eulogy of this shipment, says:â€" “Seldom, if ever, has there been three better horses than Craichmore, Darnley, Uam Var and Blythe Prince exported to Canada.”.... Craichmore ‘ Darnley is six years old, {and was sired by the famous Darnley; dam, by the great prize-winner, the Druid. He has cap- tured all the red tickets at the principal shows in Scotland, and what is still more note-worthy his produce have won 23 first prizes this year alone at the principal fairs, including Glasgow, besides several second prizes ....... Blythe l’rince, sired by the famous Prince of Wales, dam the great prize-winning mare that pro- duced Royal Salute and other noted horses. This is a horse of fine size, style, quality and ‘ action, and a prize-winner since a yearling. . . . Uam Var is another three-year-old that has won eighteen first and second prizes around Stranraer and neighboring shire, and stands second to none of his age in Canada. His sire was the Highland [Society prize-winner, Lord Ailsa, whose dam was by Prince of \Vales. [1113a, WIIUDM uulll vim.) u} a. .-..V‘, V- Uam Var’s dam was by Topsman . . . . . .All these horses are of grand size, rich color, and good style In addition to this trio :1 fine specimen of the Shetland pony is provided in a handsome and speedy little chestnut.
