Listowel, Sept. 7th.--Death came with terrible suddenness to Mr. Ro- bert Hamilton, who dropped dead at his home, Main street west, about 10 o'clock yesterday morning. He was in his usual health and had been down town Wednesday afternoon. Heart trouble is supposed to have caused his sudden demise. The de- ceased was 75 years of age, and was born in Ireland, coming to nada and settling in Elma nearly fifty years ago. He leaves a wife, but no family. Two sistera, Mrs. Joy, of Stratford, and Mrs. Stewart, near Mitchell, surviye. Mrs. A. W. Glenn and Mrs. Joseph Large, of Listowel, are step-daughters. The funeral took place on Saturday afternoon at 1.30 to Elma Centre Cemetery. The star of the eyening, however, was undoubtedly Millard Stauffer, and this young artist bas evidently a future before him. He appeared as a real interpreter of Harry Lauder, and he certainly kept the audience in good humor and roars of laughter.-- Wiarton Echo. Hear him at Atwood on fair night, Sept. 22nd. The anniversary services in con- nection with the Baptist church was held on Sunday and Monday even- ing.. The services on Sunday were conducted by the Rev. J. 8. Lickie, at 3 and 7.30 p.m., when the church was filled to overflowing at each ser- vice. Mr. Lickie delivering two very eloquent addresses and the singing by the choir was excellent. Monday evening at eight o'clock the seating capacity was again taken up and the eyening was much enjoyed. The lecture on "Life in the Lumber Camp," by Mr. Lickie, was probably the best address given in Atwood for some time, it being both humorous and instructive, and as he spent nine years of his life devoting the work of a missionary for the W.C.T.U. with the lumbermen of the far north, it is needless to say he is master of the subject. Miss Hermiston and Miss Mann, of Listowel, also pleased the audience by singing two numbers. Rev. J. C. Reid, pastor of tha Meth- odist church addressed the audience at the close for a short time. The church was decorated with flowers for the occasion. St. Alban's Church Notice. 2.30 p.m.--Sunday School. 7. p.m.--Evening Prayer.
