Our Epworth League is picking up rapidly since the doors have been opened. The caretaker was in a big hurry last. Thursday night. The lights were put out and the doors locked at 7.30 sharp, when some of‘ the people were within a few rods of the church, but owing to the kind- ness of a. couple of the young men another key was secured and the church lit up again, after which our worthy pastor came and took charge of the meeting.

At present the business does not appear to bc a paying one, taking into consideration the high price they have to pay for hired help and other necessary cxa pensw. It was considered it would be necessary to raise the price about twenty per cent. above former rates. 7; LL- L-.-: The bridge question was also con- sidcrcd and the opinion of the meet- ing was that some of the bridges, as the ow are, are dangerous to life‘ and pz-ouerty, and flat tlv municipal if they are eek’s vacation. .

Storer said : “If you don’t settle that steam roller busi- ness to-night I’ll tear up the pap- ers,” but neither happened. Putting an oat box in the fireball Was a subject upon which the alderâ€" men expatiated with charming free- dom. That it be made and with a hopper bottom and perhaps out of a piano box, was moved and seconded by several. Somebody Wanted to know if that Dy sewn on. Somebody wanted to know if that was town hose, Pilkie left on the ground on Sussex-st. Nobody knew.l With knit brows aldermen pondered appointing a caretaker who should live in the fireball, but did not do it. A railway is to be put cn both sides of a bridge over Fee’s creek in the eastward. Ald. Robinson’s suggestion that 2 x 4 stuff would do, moved Ald. McCrae to protest that “a good chunk of a fellow and his girl would break it down; make it heavier. ’ ’ A ‘ * :‘-,a A AnnIIJ mean ":1 . Ald. Storer’s fyle contained a docu-li ment referring to Sioux-st., whereatl the alderman was hopelessly stalled.‘I in pronunciation, and declared it was g the first time he ever knew there was i such a street in the town. , That “quagmire” of Mr. Jos.: Staples on Kingâ€"st. had received some attention without any authoriâ€"§ 'ty from council. That attontioni had been to the extent of 21 loadsi of gravel in 4- rods. Chairman Sto-; rer had ordered it, for an original; cedar stump had been detected float-l 1ing up from the depths, and that ini addition to two or three wrecked. vehicles and Mr. Staples’ protest.j ‘was sufficient to make. a man act on? his own authority. Aid. McCraeE tried to find out how it was thati the work had been undertaken with-i out authority, but could get no ans-Ul wer. Alds. Robinson, Storer and McWatters were appointed to view the place with respect to further re-i pairs. Next day they went and were accompanied by Ald. McCrae. They decided that the work should go on, and that brush would help a good deal. Accordingly they gave orders to a carter to chop down the ,little cedar grove opposite the hospi- !tal and take it over to the mudhole and cast it in. Soon the first in- ;stalment of the grove reached the "place on board “Johnnie” Robin- son’s wagon. By Saturday night ’ over 100 loads of gravel and grove were made into a roadway where the ”quagmire” had been. â€"Four members of the Aero, cluh,! who ascended from Paris in an air-i ship Saturday night, descended vioâ€"i lently next morning at Arles, forty; miles northwest of Marseilles, mar-i velously escaping death. At dawnj the balloon, which Was at a height‘ of 10,000 feet, was travelling at a rate of 60 miles an hour. The aeronauts, realizing that they were nearing the Mediterranean, determin- ed to descend immediately. They dropped precipitatcxy, and in a few minutes the balloon struck the earth. It rebounded for 300 feet. and final- ly setteled among some telegraph wires, which were broken. The ra- ;pidity of the descent deprived the «revellers of all sensation, and com- pletely deafened them. Otherwise they were unburt. After a rest they returned to Paris by rail. While aloft they encountered a temperature of five degrees above zero.

Abner Henry Brown was found dead at his ‘home, 291 Farley-ave, Toronto, on Saturday afternoon. A few inches from his right hand lay a revolver. one chamber of which was empty. There was nobody else in the house. Mrs. Brown having gone to her mo- ther‘s home on Fern-ave. The dis- covery was made by Joshua Kaiser, of 298- Farley-ave, who had gone over to get Brown to do some paper- ing for him. Getting no response when he rang the door-bell he 1001:- ed in the window. and saw Brown's body lying on the floor in the dining- room. â€"James Leisk of Brigden Ont, was found dead last week hanging over the front of his buggy. He was re- turning from Bradshaw post ofllce. whcr'e he left apparently in good health. Deceased was about. 86 years old, and is supposed to have met with an accident or died suddenly while driving along the road. and the cure of the parish, Rev, Father Dupont. perished in the flun- es. The preabytery was an historic building, having been erected in 1788. â€"On Friday night the Roman Catholic Presbytery at. St. Paul de J olligtte. Qne., was destroyed by fire; cure-who was .in‘poor health, was alone in the house with a ser- vant. The fire started during the night, and the building was soon a mass of flames. The servant made heroic efforts to save the cure, but he was torced to beat retreat as the priest's room was a roaring furnace. After the fire the priat' s remains were found near the door showing ‘that he had made an attempt to ‘save himself. â€"-Major-Gcneral Hutton, may re- sign from the Australian forces be- cause the government has cut. down the appropx'fiatibns to‘thc forces and for other reasons.
