A Chatham Bauer reporter while bu newsgnthering rounds a few days igo dropped mto the well-known drug store of Messrs. Pilkey & Co.,, and brurheard scraps of conversation be tween customers, in which the words "Pink Pill" and the name "Hughson" were frequently repeated. With a re- porter's instinct for a good news article, he asked for soe particulars, and was told that if he called upon Mr. Hugh: son he would probably get a story well worth giving publicity, Mr. Hughson does a snug feed and sale stable busi ness on Hurvey street and thither the teporter repaired, and was somewhat surprised to find the very antipodes of an invalid. Mr. Hughson is a man of medium height, about fifty years of ae, born with a good constitution, and who, until some three years ago only knew the meaning of the word sickness from the dictionary, Mr. Hughson is engineer by trade, and a out town on top of a one of his horscs stumbled, and Hughson was pitched head fore- Mr. most to the had, frozen roadway. 'When he got home and the blood was wiped away his external injurfes seem- ed trifling, but the grave trouble was inside, and took the form of a violent and almost constant headuche. A week later he went into the bush to cut wood, and felt at every stroke as if his head would burst, He worked for half an hour and then went home, nnd for right weeks his right side was whooly paralyzed and his speech gone. After a time this wore off and he was able to go about the house, though he could not walk. All this time he was attended by a physician, whose treat- ment, however, secmed of but little avail. In the following June he had a +e ond stroke and was not out of bed for seven wecks and was left very week, The belief that he was doomed to be a burden on those near and dear to him, that he was unable to take his place as a bread winner, added mental to his physical anguish. Bat relief wns coming and in a form he had not expected, He saw Dr. Williams' Pink Pills advertised and asked his physician about them, The latter said he had not much faith in these remedies, but | they would do no harm, and Mr. Hugh son got a supply which he began taking according to directions, At the oat- set his wife was also opposed to them, but before he bad taken them long she noticed an improvement in his condi | tion, and then was quite as strong in | urging him to continue their use, and | even took them with good results her- | self for heart" weakness following Ia grippe. Continuing the use of the pills, Mr. Hughson found his terrible headaches leaving him and his strength returning, and soon. found he could do light work on the farm near his house. He still continued using the Pink Pills until he had taken fourteen boxes, and found himself fully restored to his old- time. th, Mr. Haghson's old ithbare it Harwich never expected to see him on his feet again, and are astounded at his recovery, so much so that the fame of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills has spread far and near through- out the township, and are the standard remedy in many households. Mr, Hughson can be seen by any of our citizens and will only too gladly verify the foregoing statements, The reporter then called upon Messrs. | Pilkey & Oo., at the Central Drug Store. They do not, they inforwed him, make a practice of booming any proprietary medicine, so that the lead taken by Dr. Williams' Piuk Pills is not due to persistent puffing but to ir- resistible merit, and ou all sides their custowers speak of them in terms of warmest praise, Dr. Williaws' Pink Pills are a per- fect blood builder nud nerve restorer, curing such diseases as rheumatism, neuralgia, partial paralysis, locomotor ataxia, St. Vitus' dance, nervous head- ache, nervous prostration and the tired feeling therefrom, the after effests of Ja grippe, diseases depending on huniors in the blood, such as scrofula, chrouic erysipelas, ete. Pink Pills give a healthy glow to pale and sallow complexions and are a specific for the troubles peculiar to the female system, and in the case of men they effect a radical cure in all cases arising from ental worry, overwork, or excesses of uny nature, Bear in mind Dr. Williams' Pink Pills sre never sold in bulk, or by the dozen or hundred, and any dealer who "offers substitutes in this form is trying ~ to defraud you and should Le avoided.

At a meeting of Pickering township council last week ** Mr, Poucher, "seconded Mr. Rich- ards, moves that having received an invitation from the Clerk of the Town of Whitby to appoint delegates to meet in the Council chamber on Satur- day, Nov. 11th, at 2 p.m., for the pur- pose of discussing the advisibility of erecting a House of Industry in the southern part of this county, and that the following parties be appointed by invitation, viz: John Miller, George Parker, R. P. Hoover, Joseph Monk- house; Sylvester Mackey, M. Gleeson, Geo. Davidson, T. P. White, Arthur Johnston, 8, H. Stevenson, F. L. Green, H, Westgate, B. Bunting, D. Mucuab, R. P. Hooper and the sever- al mewbers of Pickering Council, and that the Clerk notify the aforesaid as to the date and place of meeting." It may be that the ratepayers of the southern portion of this riding wre in favor of the establishment of a "House of Indust in their midst, and it way be all very well for the so-called prominent at portion of 'the wishes of the minjority of that part of the county. But an overwhelming majority of the ratepayers of the northern portion of the county, includ: ing Reach, Port Perry and Scugog, are decidedly opposed to the establish- ment of any such "House" and it would be an exhibition of unpardon- able insolence on the part of an clique to try to rope in any municipality a majority of whose ratepayers are op- pose to the Poor House scheme.-- Northern Ontraio has a few indigent ones scattered over its several mnnici- palities but we are neither ashamed of them nor unwilling to provide for them, neither have we any desire to deprive them of thew freedom. The ratepayers of the northern portion of this County do not regard poverty as a crimg but as a misfortune, and mis- fortune enough without the depriva- tion of liberty added to it. We don't [ want to drag our poor ones from dear {ones at home and incarcerate thém in [a Poer House simply because they are {poor. The northern part of this county cheerfully supports its needy ones, but there is a commendable de- termination not to permit over-fed, over-paid poor house officials to lord it over the poor ones, devour the flesh and let the needy ones gnaw the bones. The people do well when they provide for their indigent ones, but it is too much to ask the ratepayers to erecy costly Poor Houses and pay salaries to a hungry host of grabbing officials, and any attempt to foist such an in- stitution on a municipality, a majority of whose ratepayers are opposed to it would be ap act of intolerable tyrahny which should be resisted at every point. The Ontario Legislature offers a bribe of $4,000 to every county in the province who will erect such a Poor House as the Government directs. Where does the Ontario Government | get all these thousands of dollars 1 out of the pockets of the ratepayers, of | And why should the Mowat | Government feel so anxions to have | such houses erected! The establish-' ment of such institutions would prove course, | a great source of strength to the gov- | ernment, for the day would soon some] when the government would take all | such institutions under its control, ap- pointing all the officials and having a direst "pull" on all connected with the | institution, whether as officials fur-| nishers of supplies, &o., &c., these in-| stitutions would very soon become im- portant in the political machine. ea ere Uxwerconr Visigors.--Port Perry | wheels was invaded early on Monday morn- ing last by two, at least, unwelcome visitors ; not having any ligitmate bus- iness in town they wiled away the early hours of the morning by first breaking into Mr. T.

Half on hour later all this is chang- ed. Newspapers are strewn about ou the desks. The mathematical arrange: ment of the 'Records' is disturbed, and here and there are great stacks of books piled high on the desk of intend- ing debaters, The great spectacle of orderly quiet is destroyed. These piles i of bovks form quite an interesting "| factor in the delate. The desks with which the Senate is furnished are Tor tot ar ; HTicen tow manuscript. ~~ The remedial device is simple ayd cheap, for if there is any- thing in which the legislative branch of the government is rich in it is in large fut documents that stack up well, Senator Peffer was outdone a bit in this respect by Senator Cockrell, who builded up a tower of learning that could have given pointers to the Babel affair, Yet Mr. Peffer is no mean architect in this line of work: He has such a generous length from the floor to the top of his round head that he must have his notes well under his eyes, and so there is sure to be a par tial eclipse of the Kansan when he is saying things for publication in the 'Record'. Senator Pefler talks like a man intensely in earnest that he is quite oblivious of the fact vacant seats | around him. His favorite gesture is a calm one, There is no waste of energy about Peffer. He is a great conservator, an economist, even to the motions of his arms. Nor is there any rant about him. He is calm, in- evitable. The long whiskers that have made Mr, Peffer so famous enjoy his most distingnished consideration.-- He treats them with the greatest re- spect, and evidently recognizes their value as a most excellent trade mark, for he pever twists them, never lets them get in the way of his eyeglasses or his goblet of water. They aro al- together very well behaved whiskers.

Three bullets entered his body, twosef them waking wounds sufficient to cause death, The murder was committed by Eugene Patrick Prendergast, a paper carrier and an ex-member of the Chicago Police Force, who declared that Mayor Harrison had promised to wake him Corporation Counsel and had not kept his word. This, he suid, was.his only reason for committing the crime. : Shortly after 8 o'clock Saturday morning Prendergast presented him- self at Mr, Harrison's residence, and asked if the Mayor were in. ' Yes, sir, responded. the girl as she pulled the door wider open to permit his entrance, ® '1 would like to see him please,' said the wan as he walked toward the back end of the hall Mr. Har rison was in the dining roow which opens into the rear end of the hall, -- and, PPInK into the hall Without saying a word, Prend drew his revolver and commenced to fire. He pulled the trigger bot three times, and evory bullet hit the mark. One ball shattergd Mr, Harrison's left hand, another passed into the right side of the abdomen, making a wound that would have been mortal in a fow ays; the third bullet entered the chest, slightly above the heart. This bullet was the immediate cause of death, As soon as Prendergast begar to fire Mr. Harrison turned and walked rapidly toward the dining:room and passed into the butler's pantry opening off the room, where weakened by the loss of blood, he fell to the floor, Every possible effort was made to secure wedical attendance for Mr, Hurrison, but when Dr. Lyman, the | first physician to arrive at the house, reached the Mayor's side he was a dead man, Drs.

Yours traly, (Signed) JOHN M'INTOSH, Jr. The Hon. J. Melntosh, Commissioner of Quebec to the World's Columbian Fx- Position, Chicago :-- ear Sir.--In Roly to your questions 1 would say that it is my opinion that the in< terest which has been ned in the many <J facture of five cheese in the Province of Quebee, "owing to and cesalting from the success which attended the exhibition of Canadian cheese at Chicago in June, has re- sulted in an improvetnent in the quality of the output of the factories of {hat province, A moderate estimate would put the increase in the intrinsic value of the cheese, from the stimulated attention devoted to this branch of the daify industry in the Provinee of Quebec at from one-quarter to one-half cent per pound on the cheese manufactured if Quebec. This estimate would represent a sum of «ve © $100,000 in money on the make of the present season, besides the gain of knowledge, prestige and experience. Yours iy, (Signed) JAS, W.
