They spent the day with friends, be having re- sided in the above town at one time. While there Mr. Nay-lor was made acquainted with all the details of the shocking shooting accident, which occured Saturday evening, in which one lad was almost instantly killed by his companion. it appears that three young lads, all printers in the office of the Ux- bridge Journal, rented three guns for the afternoon, preparatory to hunting rabbits in the nearby woods. They were returning to town, and stopped on the road near a coalâ€"shed west of the railway station for one of the party, Arthur Johnson, aged sixteen, to draw the charge from his gun. In the process the gun went on, the full charge striking Charles Cooper, aged nineteen, in the breast, The young man was a son of James l hi1 ling him instantly. :ountry several years, Mr. Naylor had a conversation with Arthur Johnson, whom he is well acquainted with, and the latter declares that. the accident was pure- ’l‘lie cartridge lodged ;.:*:’n‘v :.. the gun, and in trying to .¢ ll. 1v; accidental.

Cooper advanced towards Johnson, saying “ I’m hurt,” moan- ed twice and swayed before Johnson caught him. The charge made a hole some three inches in diameter in P. the young man’s breast, and the blood was gushing forth. Although horrified at the accident Johnson had presence of mind en- ough to try and stop the flow of blood, but two handkerchiefs placed in the gaping wound could not. stop Hon. Sydney Fisher, and Hon. W. L. M. King. Last night he visited Peterboro. What the Opposition expected to gain by this tour has always been a mys- tery.

He and some of his colleagues, of all men, had the hardihood to criticize the methods, as described by them, of completing the National Transcontinental Rail- He allowed Mr. Murphy to country where Mr. Cochrane is known and where all the people are his friends. The whole tour seems to have been a losing venture, under the directiOn of lieutenants who did not know what to do" and still less how to do it. There is the suggestion that this tour was so timed as to take the little band of err-ministers away from Ottawa, from Montreal and frOm Toronto, in order that they might not be disturbed by the evid- ences, everywhere manifested, of a ,non-partizanflesire to do honor to the prime minister and his col- leagues who have in one short year done so much for Canada. That suggestion refleCts little credit upon the sportsmanship of the beaten cabinet and probably has little to do with the. real reason. Sir Wilfrid Laurier was led to believe that a tour in northern Ontario would help the Liberal party's chances. It didn’t help. Sir Wilfrid was ill-ad- vised, that was all.

LECTURE 0N BIBLE SCHOLARLY- ADDRESS DELIVER- ED SUNDAY AFTERNOON. A fair sized audience gathered Sun- day afternoon in the Opera House to listen to a Bible lecture by Mr. Haden Sampson, a representative of the International Bible Student’s Association. The looturer gave a logical and ex- ceedingly reasonable interpretation from the scriptures in support of the fact that God from the beginning has been carrying out a perfect and wonderful plan. He said man, seeing only a small part of the working of the plan, had been inclined to condemn the unfin- ished work. As the beauty of a building should not be judged by the unsightly framework necessary to its erection, so God's great plan should not be judged until it is completed ; then like the finished building it will be glorious indeed. It was a lecture all Bible students would have listened to with plea.- sure and profit and-those present ex- pressed great appreciation. I l Wedding Bells CAMPBELLâ€"VAN NOSTRAND On Wednesday afternoon, Sept. 25 St. John's Church York Mills, was the Scene of a. Very pretty country wedding, when Elsie Margaret, eldest daughter of Lieut.-Colone1 and« Mrs. van Nostrand, was united in Marri- age with Mr. Robert Dilworth Camp- bell, of Lynedoch, Ontario, son of the Mr. Robert Campbell and Mrs. Campbell, of Hamilton. The many was performed by the ReV. Canon Marsh. of Lindsay, a cousin of the bride, assisted by the Rev. Richard Ashcroft, the rector of the parish. The church was beauti- tions by Ithe members oi the congreL gation. The bride who was given away by her father, wore a ngn of white crepe de cheno over white satin, with a fichu of carrick-ma-cross lace, trimmed with seed pearls. Her veil, which was of white tulle edged with pearls, was caught under a julict cap of pearls. She carried an ivory prayer book, from which hung lilies of the valley and maiden hair fern, and wore a gold wrist watch, the gift 0f the groom.

A splendid’progrom was provided, which, coupled with a. $3,000 prize list. proved an attractive drawing card to both exhibitor and visitor alike. There was something for everybody, even to the providing of special features for the ladies, such as bread-making and fancy work competitions, for which suitable prin- es were given. The display of vege~ tables, grains, fruits and other small produce was unusually large and ex- cellent in quality. This particular portion of the fair received the at- tention of a large concourse of peo- ple during the afternoon. There was only one disappointing feature of the whole affair, and that [was the unexpected elimination of The racing card, free-fcr-all, with a $125 purse at- tached, and a 2.40 trot that carried with it a purse of $50. Mr. W. 'l‘ Donaldson, chairman of conspiracy among the horsemen to enter both' races and split the money. There were six entries and this would have been possible. “ We've been imposed upon in this manner for the' a halt,” said Mr. Donaldson! 111- i last ten years and we propose call He expressed his willingness to low the six free-for-all horses to en- ter the free-for-all race, but would not agree to a division of the purse. The horsemen were willing to make two races out of the card, running three horses in each race, but would not agree to race six horses at once to the drivers. The racing committee were willing to compromise to the extent of al- lowing four horses to enter for one race in the free-for-all. This did not meet with the approval of the horsemen the race. The display of live stock was said to be below the average, especially cattle, sheep and pigs. The farm- ers attribute the lack of interest in this respect to the fact that there has been a marked falling all in lfVe stock breeding throughout the coun- ty. This display, however, com- the bigger exhibitions, and the com- petition was of the keenest order. The exhibit of carriage and draught horses was the largest in the history of the fair, and was one to the company, and patties wt. of the best features of the show. Judging was carried on in two rings simultaneously and the interest of the large majority of those in at- tendance were divided between the two. CHALLENGED PICKPOCKE’I‘S. Pickpockets operated successfully at the Millbrook fair on Thursday. ()ne visitor to the fair, hearing that pickpockcts had been ouerating there, flashed a roll of bills and defied the light-fingered gentry (0 get his money. Alas and slack! The pickpockets must have heard the challenge as they quickly proved that nimble lingers anh quick wit were two much for the farmer. There are people who always are in a terrible hurry to get nowhere and do nothing. of town. The nuptial knot was tied by Rev. Mr. Wallace, pastor of the church. The happy CO‘lple were as- sisted throughout the frying ordeal by Miss Annie Abercrombic, sister of the bride, and Mr. David Dunoon. Mr. and Mrs. McFadyen journeyed on the morning C.I’.R. train for Buffalo and other points on their honeymoon.
