Their disappearâ€" nee reSulted partly from wars among themselves, but chieffly from those against the white man. One thrilling chapter in the story of the life and extermination of the red man would be located in this counâ€" ty. On the Trent Valley waters the bark canoe was the forerunner of the great grain barge that is to, be (2’) and the paints along the' route that now attract the white man were favorite; resorts of thei Relics of the tenure of this vanishâ€" ed race are one of the most abun- dant and interesting products of this county. Mr. Geo. Laidlaw of “The Fort” has gathered probably the best collection of these in Onta- rio, and recently presented it to the Ontario government. The other day Mr. Geo. Coates of Cambray speaking of these relics said: “There are an Indian burial ground and camping place on theI Douglas farm north of my place,; and a large camping ground on the{ EldOn Road north of Mr. NeilI Clark’s. Two tribes, the Mohawksg and Massassagas occupied that regâ€"g ion, and carried on frequent and; bloody wars. The Clark camping; ground is thought to be that of the; Massassagns, and that near my place ' to be that at'which the Mohawksi left their squaws, papooscs and old; inen when the bzaves. went out tos var. After the Massassagas had crushed the Mohawks in a big fight. they went to this place and massa- cmd all its inhabitants. This' story was told my father by a Masg sasSaga named Goose, who lived on’ Scugog Island, and whose descent: dant, Geo. GOOSe, is new Chief 013 what is left of the Massassaga tribe down there.” Mr. Coates has about 3 25 arrow heads, no two 0“ which are alike, that were picked. up on his farm and which it is thought were missles fired from Goose Lake when it was deep enough to float canoes . _____..+â€"â€"-â€"â€"-â€"â€" DOWIE'S H9“ CITY ____..Oâ€"â€"â€" lliss Estella Matthie Visits the Zionl Colony Outside of Chicago Miss Estella Matthie of Sutclill‘ei Sons, recently returned from a visit to her uncle Mr. A.

She says :-â€"1 have many reasons to be grateful to recom- mend them to other mothers. Our little girl ' fourteen months highly about who Tablets since she was old, and I cannot speak too of them. Since I came here two years ago, every mother has small children has asked what I gave our baby to keep her in such even health, and I have re- plied ‘ absolutely nothing but Baby’s Own Tablets.’ Now nearly every child here gets the Tablets when a medicine is needed, and the old- fashioned crude medicines, such as castor oil and soothing preparations their little ones, are discarded. Our fami- ly doctor also praises the Tablets, and says they are a wonderful medi- cine for children. Accept my thanks for all the good your Tablets have done my little one, and I hope other mothers will profit by my exper- ience. ’5 T‘s-"37's Own Tablets can be given ~~~9J ‘with absolute safety to the youngest frailestwhild, and they are guaran- teed to cure all the minor ailments of little ones.

The reeve gave a reâ€" port of his attendance at a meeting- at Oakwood, re Hancock drain. A notice of appeal was entered by the township of Fenelon against the en- gineer's latest report. on it. and an agreement is being entered into by the townships of Mariposa and Fenc- lon, whereby Mariposa agrees to abandon the engineer’s report. and award, so far as Fenelon is con- cerned, Fenclon agreeing to pay half the cost of the drain and culverts to be constructed and maintained on the boundary road allowances: also owners of land in Fenelon each agree to build and maintain the drain in that township. On motion of Messrs. Palmer and Chicago. While there Miss Matthie was much interested in this remarkâ€" able community. Meeting with one is greeted the people with the sulution, "Peace to thee" ; the reply is "Peace to Thee be Multiplied." She thinks it is the busiest place in the world, they are like a bee hire. and they will allow no drones to llVL‘ in the city. There are 70 dim'rcul nation- nltics represented, and all living in pearc and harmony; all go to one church or tabernacle, and this. is the very heart. of the city and Sunday is the day they Celebrate. The first meeting begins at 6.30 in the morn- ing and is attended by thousands of people, but the general assembly at 2.80 p.m. is an extraordinary all‘air. Seven or eight thousand people have assx-mblcd. when a gentleman Wear- ing a white surplice steps upon a stand back of the platform with a baton in his hand which he swings to music. Then begins the proces- sionul of the seven hundred white surpliced choir which is grand and This meeting lasts from three to four hours. The things that are unseen as just as remark- alfle as the things that are seen, for here is a city of ten thousand peop- le withou-t a doctor, drug store or saloon, whiskey or tobacco. In place of hotels they have that what they call hospices. The principal one will accomodate 1000 people. The city is just two years old. It has a lace factory covering eight acres of floor space. a fancy box factory and a brick factory. These are its principal industries. It also has four large school buildings and a magnificent stone college. The administration building is a beautiâ€" ful edifice and is filled with offices. In the past five months contracts have been signed for the building of more than one thousand dwelling menses, and they have begun to beild a new tabernacle to seat 36,â€" 000 people. The whistles blow at nine o'clock morning and evening for prayers, and no matter where the people are or what they are doing two minutes must be taken to pray. The motto on the banner is “Where flod Rules Man Prospers. ” THE FARMER’S PAPER ___o_.- Br. cumin Smith Says the Weekly Sun is Independent in Policy and Fineness ‘DAddnessing the Farmers’ Associa- tion convention at Toronto recently, Dr. Goldwin Smith, who owns the Weekly Sun and contributes to its columns as The Bystander, made an address in which he referred to his paper, its policy and financial posi- tion as follows : “A well deserved tribute has been to the management of the Sun.
