The many friends of Prof. L.v Seward in this place will be sorry to learn of his death, which occurred on Wednesday evening at 12.30 o’clock, in a private ward in the Nicholls’ Hospital, Peter- borough. His illness dates from De- cember last, but he has only been con- fined to his bed for about three weeks He has been a constant sufi’erer, how- ever, tor the past twenty years from in- flammatory rheumatism. He has been a resident of Peterborough for the past eight years, being for four years organ- ist of St. John’s, and the remaining time organist and choirmaster of the George St. Methodist Church. For the past three months he had a large class of pupils in this village, visiting them every Friday, up to the time when he was taken down. He leaves a. wife and four small children to mourn his loss, who have the sympathy ofthis and sur- rounding district. We are much pleased to learn that Mr. G. W. Mulligan, of our town, has received the position of leader of St- Andrew’s choir in Peterboro’. For the past two Sundays he has sung in that church and seeing the ability of Mr, Mulligan, they at once secured his services. The Examiner, of Monday, says: Mr. G. W. Mulligan having accepted the position of leader of St. Andrew’s choir, led yesterday. St. Andrew’s is to be congratulated on having secured the services of so efficient a leader and sing- er. The anthems were beautifully ren- dered both morning and evening. In the evening Mr. Mulligan sang in fine voice and express on a. beautiful piece entitled "Zion.” He has been with us during the past six months, and in that time has estab- lished a fine singing class. Mr. Mulli. gan Is very busy at present preparing for the grand musical festival on the 24th, when a. chorus of some 65 voices will take part, and which is in constant training under his management. He held the position as baritone soloist in in the First Presbyterian Church in Rochester, N. Y., before coming to this place. The Canadian Presbyterian throws the following timely hint to clergyman and church workers generally: " The press being friendly as a whole, and having immense power and unrivalled facilities for reaching the people, might at the church make more use of it than 8 now made. Is there any reason why minister should not give the local ress an occasional extract from his ser- mons andthns reach a much larger cen- gregatioi. than the one he preached to from the pulpit. Is there any reason why a minister should not send the editor an occasional fresh news item. We abhor puffing, and above everything else clerical puffing, but an occasional striking paragraph from a sermon or a newsy item is not putl'ing. There is a proper as well as an improper use of the press. One of the worst varieties of im- proper use is ‘oadgering the local editor to insert dead-head church notices. Never do that.” Special to the Mirror. Mr. J. E. Adams, omeemee, occu pied the pulpit of the Bethel church on Sun- day last. We have had potato buyers from Pet- erborough and Omemee visiting this neighborhood. All they are offering is forty cents per bag. Nearly all the farmers around this neighborhood are done seeding. It has been a. fine spring for working and the growth 18 very rapid. The congregation was very large in the Lakevale Presbyterian Church on Sundav. Everybody seems delighted with Rev. Mr. McKay. A very serious accxdent took place on‘ Monday evening last. Mis§ J. Franks, sister of Mrs. R. Deyell, of thisplace, while out at the barn hunting after eggs, tell from a. scatfold. a distance of eight 0:- ten feet. Dr. Yelland of Peter-bor- ough, was summoned and while her head seems to pain her severely and at times she takes Spells of vomiting, we feel that under his skilful treatment and po:fec_t quietness, shabwill soon recover. Messrs. Jas. Fowler, J. D. Tully, D. Tully, Stinson and George Rutherford, of the Lakevale Presbyterian Church, and Isaiah Best, Joseph Rutherford and J as. McLean, of the Presbyterian Church Mount Pleasant, as elders and officers of the Omemee charge, together with the officials and elders of the Omemee Church, held a meeting on Tuesday last to consult wi .11 the Rev. A. McWiliams, the moderator of the Peterborough Presbytery, in having the Rev. W. Mc- Kay remain with them during the sum- mer months. The Moderator seeing how unanimous the meeting was, in having Mr. McKay remain with them, gave the officers some encouragement, and said he would bring it up before the Presbytery, and would use his influence in having him remain with them. As was mentioned in last week’s paper, the Bradd vs. Cochrane case was decided in favor of the plaintiff, thereby making it necessary, for the defendant to discon- tinue practicing in this locality. Dr. Cochrane acting on the above, has moved his office from Omemee to Centreville, where he intends practicing medicine in that place and surrounding country. The Doctor had a very large practice while located in Omemee, being here for over eight years and was looked upon by our citizens as one of the most skilful physiciansin this locality. He has al- ways had a. wide reputation asalead- ing physician wherever located, and we bespeak for him a. large practice in the place where he has removed to. l A beautiful life~like crayon portrait of the late Arthur McQuade, 18 on exhibi- bition in one of the large windows of T. ‘ Ivory’ sstore.

The services in the Methodist Church last Sunday were well attended. In the morning, Rev. C. L. Thompson gave a very interesting and practical sermon The evening’s service was conducted by Rev. R. S. Fralick, whose sermon was addressed to the young men. The Young Men’s Christian Associa- tion of Lindsay have made arrange- ment to run an excurswn to Halibnrton on May 24th, when an enjoyable day will be spent by those participating in the same. The young men are making real. preparations and it is no doubt a arge crowd will take the excursion in. The intending passengers from Peter- boro’ and other towns this side of Lind- say will take the No. 1 train for Lind- say and change on to the special which leaves there at 9.80. This will allow five hours in Haliburton and people from this place who intend going, will get back to Omemee in time for the grand concert to be held here in the evening. The net {are from Omemee will be only $1.10, children under twelve half fare. We wish the boys a large crowd and we hope to see a large number take in the concert here at night. As they have a. Special train for that day, why not run down to Omemee after returning from i Haliburton. ‘ The Presbyterian Church on Sunday afternoon was well filled with an inter- ested congregation to listen to the Rev. Mr. McKay. His sermon to young peo- ple was a very able and powerful one and was listened to with wrapt attention The Business Quarterly Meeting of the Methodist Church will be held on Mon- day evening at 7.30. As this is a. very important meeting, the officials of' the church are all expected to be present. A very interesting address was read in Cbnst Church on Sunday evening last by the Rev. W. McCann. The address was on missions and was very instructive to the large number present. Rev. A. L. Brown, formerly stationed in Omemoe, is visiting his friends in this locality. He has been successful in passing all his examinations. Rev. W. McKay will preach in the Presbyterian Church on Sunday next at 3 p. In. All welcome.

He continued on the Spree Thurs~ day and Friday and during this time the detective found that he had changed two fifty dollar bills. On Saturday mornmg Mr. Henderson, son of Mrs. Henderson, nwore out a w arrant for his arrest, charuing him w 1th having found the lost money. Constable Mitchell ex- ecuted the warrant, and placed Red- mond in the lock-up about ten a.m., he still being quite drunk. After the pris- oner had slept off his debauch and real- ized where he was, it was no time until he was seen on his way up to the otlice of Reeve Cornwall, to find out what he had done. The ofllcer put him in again, but on Sunday, Redmond made his es- cape and kept secreted until Monday morning, w hen he went up to the mag- istrate and gave himself up agreeing to report at the hearing at ten 0 c’lock that day: 1n Omemu Episodeâ€"William Redmond, who Wu Gommltted by laglstrste Cornwall, gives Donetsble lltchell the Bllp and lakes Good his Escape. The village of Omemee had quite a. sensation for the past week that will af- ford gossip for the natives for some tune and will not be soon forgotten by those directly interested in the afi'air. It ap- pears that Mrs. John Henderson, who lives three miles north of the village. lost $150 on the evening of the 3lst of last March, between her home and Par- sons’ store, she having discovered her loss while shopping in the latter place. The money consisted of two fifties and five ten dollar bills. There were parties in the store when she lost the money, among whom was William Redmond. There was a reward offered to the finder but apparently not sufficient to induce the holder to claim the amount. If there was any suspicion against any party the losers were biding their time for some developnlents. $I¢I=§Efl§é A FUGITIVE FROM JUSTICE. Omemee Public School.
