Page for indecent ex- posure. The charge was made by Mr. Christopher Wilson and although that gentleman’s evidence went to show that the boy had done wrong, the other and more important witnesses proved that he had not been guilty of any misde- meanor, and the worthy magistrate ac- quitted him accordingly. Although this boy was honorably acquittedthere are many cases where charges for the same ofl‘ence could be proved and it is only on account of the forbearance of eye-witnesses that they are not ventil- ated in the court. We hope, however, that this will prove a gentle reminder to young men and boys to be careful and not have charges of this kind come 1 before a magistrate. â€"Mr, Martin Parker, the Bobcayâ€" geon Independent says, arrived from Bailieboro Wednesday night, with seventy baskets of plums. Mr. Par- ker has a large orchard and is a most successful grower of fruit. It is a constant wonder to this gentleman that so little attention is given to fruit in this neighborhood. He is decidedly of opinion that this is a favorable region particularly around the lakes. As for profit, fruit, no urntonds is much more profitable than grain, even on the best of land â€"â€"On Thursday last while Mr. Wm. Williamson was engaged moving a threshing engine from the farm of Mr. H. Douglas, Cavan, one of the wheels broke and the engine upset, throwing Mr. Williamson off and jam- ming him against a fence. It was at first thought that the unfortunate man was killed, but on being released it was found that although he had escap- ed a horrible death he had three ribs broken and a bad fracture of the back. Medical aid was summoned and we are pleased to learn that Mr. W'illiamson is recovering as rapidly as can be ex- pected. and no waste spots too rocky for cultivation, trees can be planted be- tween the rocks, and be productive of big money. â€"Mr. Robb. Armstrong, a young man employed in the stove and tin- ware establishment of Mr. \V. S. Pick- up, met with a severe accident on Wednesday evening of last week. It appears he was wrestling with another young man in rear of the G.T.R. sta- tion when he fell with his left leg un- der him, breaking it below the knee. The accident is very much to be re- gretted and we hope the unfortunate young fellow may recover without leaving any permanent injury. -â€"The concert advertised to take place toâ€"night under the auspices of St. Thomas’ church, took place last night. ‘ Some mistake had ‘been made between lthe company and the committee here, no doubt through their agent. How- ever, the body of the hall was comfort- ably filled and the proceeds almost as large as could be expected this season of the year. The programme was good and well rendered. â€"Mr. R. W. Clarke is attending the convention of the International Sabbath school association at St. Louis as a delegate from the Ontario associa- tion.

On Thursday last a number of our local sports, among whom we might mention Mr. L. S. Clarry and son, Ernest, struck out for Oak Orchard, and during their sail up the Otonabee they passed the camps of Messrs. John Dawson, John Steele and Geo. Hetherington, all of whom are accompanied by their families and guests in the persons of Mr. H. Need ler and sisters, Miss Carveth, Rev. Mr. Thompson and Mr. Geo. McBean. On Friday morning nothing else seemed to enter the minds of the campers but duck shooting, and accordingly every fire arm in camp was brought into re- quisition. Each individual tool; his own course and spent the day laying low for the web-footed fowl. As the shades of evening approached each one became anxious to know how his com- panion fared. Mr. Clarry proudly produced seven, and the other Millâ€" brook party managed to get one beâ€" tween them, while a party from Peter- boro {failed to score. As Mr. Clarry started for home in the evening and glided along the calm, still waters of the Otonabee, he pictures the scene as one that words can hardly describe, the blazing camp-fires, the heavenly music that fills the air, and the merry laughter of the many campers seem to impress one with the idea that every- -â€"-()n Thursday, 24th inst., Court Ivanhoe, Independent Order of For. esters, held its annual excursion and met with great success, excellent weather and a goodly number of peo- ple contributing, of course, to the suc- cess. The trip chosen being via Peter- boro and Chemong, sailing to Bobcay- gcon, where a stop of two hours was made, enabling the visitors to do the villiage most thoroughly and visit the places of interest, among which was the office of that great journal the Bob Independent. A sail of three quarters of a hour brought the party to. Sturgeon Point, a noted and most de- lightful summer resort. Here the ex- cursionists again debarked and an hour and a half was most pleasantly spent strolling under the spreading ltrees and in and around the spacious} ‘hotel. An hour’s sail brough the party‘ to Lindsay, where the commodious and swift steamer Columbia/n, with its most obliging owner and officers were hidden adieu. Dr. McCamus and his crew deserve more than a mere passing mention for their courtesy and kind- ness to the passengers and to the com- mittee charwed with the duties of the days programme. Having arrived at Lindsay about 6.15, the party had an hour and three quarters in which to do the town and the utmost ad- vantage was taken of the time. And when the train came along all were on hand and a short run home completed one of the best and mest enjoyable excursions that- ever left Millbrook. The citizens’ band were on hand and throughout the day their delightful music added much to the pleasure of the occaison. j""./ -qu had $16 great pleasme of meetin'r Mr "Wm. c,I‘Varguson, nephew of our Reeve, and are under deep obliyations to him for numerous kindnesses shown to them during their stay in the tun- nel city.

A few weeks ago a young son of Mr. John Boyd, ex-councillor ot Cavan township, met with an accident that proved fatal on Thurs- day last. He was playing in the yard and accidently jumped on a chicken bone, which penetrated one of his heels, and although nothing was thought of the accident at the time it assumed a more serious aspect later on when blood-poisoning set in. Several physicians were then called but the little fellow had passed beyond human skill, lock- jaw resulted and he passed away on Thurs- day morning last. He was a bright boy, 14 years of age, beloved by his companions and said to be one of the smartest scholars in the school he attended. The funeral took place from the family rssidence on Fri- day, Sept. lst, and was largely attended. It is our sad duty this week to chronicle the death of Miss M. J. Johnston, who passed peacefully away at the family resi- dence, King st. , M illbrook, on Tuesday of last week. Deceased lady was 55 years of age, and died after a rat-her lengthened period of illness, resulting from a complication of dis- eases. The late Miss Johnston was born in Ireland and came to Canada at an early age, settling in the village of Millbrook, where she has ever since resided. Deceased was well known and respected by all classes of citizens for her many amiable attributes of character. A brother and two sisters all residing at home are left to mourn her demise. The funeral took place on Thurs- day afternoon and was largely attended, showing the high respect in which deceased was held. One of the oldest and most respected resi- dents of Millbrcok passed away on the 30th nlt., in the person of Mr. Archibald Arm- strongâ€"t he last member of the family in his generation. His death was not unexpected, he having been confined to his room for some years. He was born in the parish of Ash- field in the county of Cavan, Ireland, on the 11th of November, 1803, and has been a. resi- dent of Ontario for 77 years. Mr. Arm- strong carried on business in Millbrook for a great many years, and was highly respected for the upright character which his daily life showed forth. Throughout his Whole life he was a steadfast member of the church or England, and died trusting in his Saviour, and having the sure and certain hope of the Resurrection to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. The funeral left his late residence, King-st, on the afternoon of Fri- day, the lat inst., his remains being laid in St. Paul’s churchyard, Gavan. His remains were consigned to their last renting place in St. John's cemetery. His father, brothers and sis'ters have the bent- felo sympathy of all in this their hour of SOI‘I‘OVV. There passed away an Brandon, Man, on Sunday, August 27th, an old pioneer of South Monaghan township in the person of Mrs. Alexander Lang. Deceased has been a resi- dent of Brandon since 1882 and during that time made many friends, being a chartable worker and a devoted member of St Mat- thews church. In her death the bereaved husband loses a partiner whose worth can- not; be estimated. Four children also re- main to mourn the loss. all of whom are grown to manhood and womanhood. De- ceased departed this life in her 56th year. 1 the gentle patter of the little footstep , is not wanting. If our space permitted - we could enumerate many things that would make every citizen long for a week’s camping on the Otonabee. â€"-Mr. T. B. Collins returned on Friday last home. trip to the Northwest, where he was looking after his financial interests in that country and visiting his many old friends from this loaali.y. Among many ‘ others that Mr. Collins had the pleasure of meeting who are well and favorably knowh here we might mention Senator J. N. Kerchhofi‘er, and Messrs. W. H. Sowden, Wm. Fallis, 0. Brandon and sons, Nelson Elgar and J. Bradley. He reports them all in a prosperous condition, with large crops and an abundance of everything, the crops ayeraging all round about twenty bushels to the acre and showing the best sample that has beeng produced there for many years. The harvest was well saved and was fully as far advanced as in this section of country. The tOWn of Souris is growing rapidly, many new buildings are in course of erection and among the more pretentious is a large block that‘is being built by Mr. W. H. Sowden, and the work is being performed almost on- tirely by old Millbrook mechanics, among others Messrs. W. H. and R. C. Bateson and Mr. Thomas Richards. On his way home Mr. Collins visited the \Vorld’s Fair at Chi- cago and gives a glowing account of the magnitude and excellence of the affair, with one drawback, however, that stands out in bold relief as a lasting monument of disgrace to the government of Manitoba and that is the positon of the magnificent exhibit sent out by that province. It occupies a position outside the exhibition grounds in an obscure place that dubs it at once as a mere side- show and many never see it all. This fact has created a feeling of disgust with hund- reds of people who are more or less finan- cially interested in the flourishing country the exhibit represents, and the actual settlers and producers of the articles composing the exhibit are loud in their denunciation of the injustice to them. Mr: Collins speaks very highly of the exhibit itself and did it occupy a more prominent position it would certain- ly prove a great drawing card for the prarie province.
