He was bathing with some others when on achallenge from his companions he jumped froma spring board into deep water and being unable to swim was soon on the verge of- unconsciousness.

There was a very good audience, but church-going seems to be scarcely as popular as formerly. Those who do not attend, observe the day of rest very quietly for the most part, but the repeated whistling of a local steam yacht that was crusing along shore distracted the wor- shippers attention last Sunday. Avoiding unnecessary noise on Sunday is much ap- preciated by the cottagers. Strikers, Farmers.

The Huntsville Forester says: A very pleasing and attractive event took place on Tuesday, 4th July, in the pretty little church at Novar, when the Rev. Mr. Pardoe united in marriage Miss Victoria Adelaide, youngest daughter of the late Mr. Angus of Maple Hill farm, Fenelon, to Mr. Thomas Martin of Maringlen farm, Chafi‘ey.

The Vote Postponed THE 545.000 BY-LAW WILL NOT BE VOTED ON YET At the public meeting held in the chi Opera House on Thursday night to discuss the $45,000 by-law,about 150 ratepayers put in an appearance. Only a few of that: number spoke, but so powerful were their remarks and so well received by the audience that the order of things was wholly changed and the council was asked’ to withdraw the by-law in its present form and postpone the vote. To this the noun. all agreed," The speakers were the Mayor, Aldermen Jackson, Lennon and Horn, Solicitor Hopkins, Messrs. J. D. Flavelle and James Graham. Others asked ques tions and spoke briefly. The by-law was objected to chiefly on three grounds. ‘It. was held that instead of having the vote taken on raising money for a fireball, walks, parks and streets all together, there should be a ballot for each so that a citizen could indicate that he is in favor of one and against another if he so desir- ed. Objection was also taken to the streets that it was proposed to build and.‘ the amount to be raised. Instead of $35,: 000 is was held that $20,000 is enough to spend on streets at present. It was also agreed that sufficient time had not been allowed in which the electors could be- come posted on the proposed expenditure.
