A fine two-storey addition has been added to the west end of the block and will add materially to the ac- commodation of the hotel as _well as Irovide a fine single store for any person wishing to engage in any kind of business. The east half of this new building Vllll be utilized as a dining hall, and is verv suitable for the purpose. The upper story will be arranged into fine bright well-ventilated bedrooms. some twelve’ in number. The work throughout is first- class and is a credit not only to Mr. Campbell but to the contractors as well. Mr. Samuel Homer did the brick work and Mr. Neil Mclnuis the carpenter work. ......

Bovxroxâ€"It is our sad duty this week to chronicle the death of Rev. Robert Boynton, at the early age of thirty years. Deceased was up to June last junior pastor in the Methodist church in this place, and was not only an impressive speaker but was able to secure a warm place in the hearts of both old and young by his unselfish and manly bearing. On leaving here in June last he went to Belleville, having been appointed to the first Methodist church in that city, where he became equally popular. A short time ago the first symptom of that terrible malady, Bright’s disease of the kidneysâ€"mani- fested itself and he was forced to return to the home of his father, Mr. Wm. Boynton. of Klrkfield. where not withâ€" standing everything was done that was possible in the way of medical skill and ministrations the ravages of this dread disease could not be stayed. On Satur- day morning last he passed away quietly to that better land, surrounded by kind friends and sorrowing relatives. The funeral on Monday was largely attended, many from this vicinity being in attend- ance. He was a member of the ‘Masonic order. who had charge of the funeral obsequies. The Rev. Wm. Burns of Toronto, who was the first minister under whom the deceased labored, delivered a powerful and feeling funeraal sermon. â€"â€"-.-â€"-â€" BALSOVER. Special to the Watchman.

SERIOUS Funâ€"On Monday, on his farm near Leaskdale, Mr. James Shire fell with a scafolding and was severely hurt. His right thigh was broken in two places and both ankles were fract- ured, one of these being broken so badly that three incnes of the bone protruded, Although a sturdy Irish- man Mr. Shier will have a hard pull on account of his age, which is not many years under the alloted span. PARRY SOUND. RAILROAD TALKâ€"The council of the city of Quebec has considered favorable a request that the city guar- antee the payment of interest on a loan of $26,000, to be made for the purpose oficarrying on the construction of a railroad from Calumet to the ancient capital. It is theintention of the promoters to tap the Parry Sound system by erecting a bridge across the Ottawa river from Calumet to Hawes- bury ,thence to connect with the Cen- tral Counties, Canada Atlantic and Parry Sound lines. ,It will be known as the Northern Railroad and will touch Montreal. In connection there- with it is the purpose of J.J. Hill, the railroad magnate of St. Paul, to estab- lish a water system from Duluth or Saginaw City to Parry Sound. If this scheme go. 5 ahead it will mean great . ORILLIA CHURCH Bov’s BRIGADE, â€"â€" In Toronto every Anglican church has a branch of the Church Boy’s Bri- gade, a military organization, which goes into camp every year, has field days, and is inspected by the garrison officers, just the same as arethe militia. Steps are now being taken by Messrs E. Herbert Farrow and Frank Breckon who have both attended the military schr 01. and are fully qualified to under- take the work to organize a branch in connection with St. James about the new year.â€"â€"News-Letter. ‘ Extremismâ€"The Orillia Masons are making preparations for a banquet on St. J ohn’s night, Dec. 27th. SUICIDE.â€"0n Monday afternoon the rumor of a suicide created a sen- sation in town. About noon on that day, Robt. Marshall was found dead in his home on Elgin-st., with a bullet hole in his head and a revolver in his hand. On Friday he accompanied his wife and child to her father’s, Mr. Thos. Murphy, who lives in the town- ship at the head of Mississaga-st. He came back to town in the evening, and was to have returned for them on Sunday. As he did not do so, Mrs. Marshall became uneasy and the next day sent a boy to town to find out the reason of her husband's non appear- ance. The lad went back and report- ed that he could not get into the house. Mrs. Marshall came to town herself after dinner, and finding the house locked up forced open the back door. She found her husband sitting at the kitchen table, in the attitude of one asleep, but dead, and evidently by his own hand. The body was lean- ing over on his hands on the table in a pool of blood. In the right hand was a revolver, and the body was frozen stiff. Mrs. Marshall gave the alarm, and some of the neighbors were soon en the spot. Hearing that .there had been a suicide, Constable Wright went to the house, cleared it, and sent for the coroner. Upon his arrival Dr. Beaton, assisted by Dr. H. Miller, examined the body, and being satisfied that Mr. Marshall had died by his own hand, decided that» .no inquest was necessary. When the deed was done is not known. The dead man is reported to have been seen on Sunday, but from the fact that the body was frozen through, the general opinion is that he shot'himself on Saturday night. That it was after . v.

If Mr. Brandon had been elected he would have been as much a government man on the school issue as Mr. McGillvray is. The member elect is a , Clarke Wallace man and consequently will vote with Mr. Wallace on the school bill. There was no candidate run- ning ‘supporting the government’s leading policy for the coming session so that no general conclusion can be drawn from the election as to the attitude of the Orangemen or of the average Ontario voter. They were told that Manitoba would be allowed to settle the matter if she would and that Mr. McGillivray was a good Meredith man and a genuine opponent of the separate schools. As the gov- ernment had no straight candidate they cannot claim a straight victory. Then, there were more votes bp 393 cast against Mr. McGillivray than for ' him. He was in a minority of the total vote cast. He fell short of the vote cast for Mr. Madill in 1891 by nearly 200 votes. This is the more noticeable when it is borne in mind that the revision of the lists in 1894 added two thousand votes. A re- markable fact in view of the fierceness of the struggle is there was a small vote polled. The total votes on the list in 1891 was 5,963 and on Thursday 7,054 giving an increase of 1,091. About 70 per cent. of the total vote wrs cast in 1891 and only about sixty-three per cent. on Thursday. The township of Mara is about. half ROman Catholic and half Protestant. Mr. McGillvray largely increased Mr. Madill’s vote there and Mr. Gillespie lost heavily, but still received more votes than Mr. McGilivray. I GOD’S LOVE AND WORKS. I love to think of God’s Creation, Of Man’s obedient destination, And his entrance into Heaven. ()f the lan-lscapeâ€"glorious images, God is speaking through such scenes ; Of the purple-tinted grandeur, Oh ! how sweet to me it seems When I soar from sin to pure, Immortal, holy things. Then I grasp them for a moment, Speak to (iod through what He’s made ; (lone againâ€" that earthly torment, Sinâ€"Ills claim has laid. Could we live and growing better, Dwell in touch with God our King. Coupled by llis Spirits fetter, Beauty see in every 'bing ; Then we’d understand ll, maybe, Of the glories we have list, What Adam‘s woeful disobedience To posterity has cost. Happy they who trod in Eden, Resting under God’s best smile, Until that most awful even, When the serpent did beguilc. Oh ! the heights from which we’ve fallen No one knows till Heaven is gained ; No one knows what Jesus sufi‘cred, When he that mighty gulf had spanned. Spanned itâ€"yes, on Calvary’s mountain, Flawed that precious healing stream, And that yawning chasms darkness leans bridged, us to redeem. J. J. CARTER, Manilla.
