On the evening of Monday, July 1 9th. a member of the Priceville ( Lodge of the A. O. U. W. wending 1 his homeward way after lodge ane' soliloquising on the various rites: and ceremonies. which had engaged 'j his attention during the meeting,‘; was suddenly brought back to the‘; realities of life by the sudden zip-E pearance of two suspicious looking characters, who passed him on the'i road. They bade him goodnight ing a peculiar and sepulteral tone. He at once decided that they must be, tramps or burglars, and considering that discretion was the better part of valour, at once proceeded to the home of a brother workman, routed him out of bed, and after duly pre- paring themselves started to hold an investigation, on again getting sight of the said to be tramps. Workman No. 23aid they looked to be tough looking cases. and immediately pro- posed getting further assistance. This was at once agreed to by his friend. and after a short time, a Vigilance Committee was assembled consisting of the discoverer of the suspicious characters whom we will call the chief of Police. Captain M. (with a club), Armory Sergeant P. (with an empty, revolver), Field Sur- geon H. (with a lantern), HOSpital Surgeon B. (left at base of operations in case of danger or emergancy call). Quarter Master Sergeant W. (with a can of emergancy rations on Fish pole sure bait for burglars), Sword Bearer B, (being better up in teach- ing the young idea how to shoot. left his sword at home in case of accident. The above named force promenaded the front and back streets of the vil- lage until as near as we can ascertain about 3 a. in. Tuesday morning, searched out lying buildings, vacant houses and also hunted the tannery from top to bottom, poked sticks into! all the rat holes, beat up shrubberyl in all directions, climbed the shade' trees, in fact made a general search in all likely and unlikely places. But all their eï¬orts were vain the birds had flown when daylight again appeared. A scared boy turned up at his home and narrated the circum- stances of his adventures during the night. It seems that two of the village boys had been occupied dur- mg the day at a job that blackened their faces and gave them an utterly disreputable and dirty appearance. When they saw that they had created a sensation they resolved to keep up the fun by running away, but the re- sult greatly exceeded their expecta. tions.

PRICEVILLE. We often hear customers saying. “my, you are always busy in this store.†We like to have you talk that way. We have the crowd. That’s so. But we are always looking for a larger one. Our trade for June was a record breaker. Bring your butter and eggs to this store and get youx goods or your cash. whichever you please. The store which sells the most buys the most and the big buyer gets the lowest price on goods. J. A. HUNTER. MIDSUMMER GOODS HARDWARE of their search were hid among some bushes about 10 feet from where there would be captors stood and heard all the plans laid for their capture, So they folded their tents like the arab and silently stole away. The committee found in the moming that they had been practically hunt- ing nothing for the best part of the night. and now it is not safe unless you are a good runner to mention tramp or burglar in the hearing of some people. Donald McDonald, 'of Priceville, commonly known as Big Dan, had Wm. Marshall before Magistrate Nic- hol last. week on a charge of abusive language and disorderly conduct. Lawyer Batson, of Markdale. appear- ed for Marshall and McDonald plead- ed his own case. Result, Marshall was mulcted in the costs. Mr. James Bolger, brother of Mr, P. Bolger, Priceville, died last Satur- day evening of consumption. He has been a suï¬erer for about four years, and was of a quiet and genial diSposition and was well thought of in the community by all who had the pleasure of his acquaintance and will be much missed. His friends have the sympathy of this community. The funeral took place to the Family Burying Place at R C. church, Pro- ton, on Monday last. A large number of friends attended at the Crown Hotel, from which the funeral cortege started, and only for the great distance, no doubt a larger number would have gone to the graveyard. Mr. T. Tuder, who lately moved into this village from near Seaforth, had the misfortune to lose one of his team of horses last Saturday. He was cutting hay on the Scott farm adjoining the village and had an- hitched to come home at noon. After he got out on the road he turned back to drive some pigs out of his grain and the team left for a moment to themselves, made for apond on the roadside to drink. One of them got so far in that he got stuck in the mud, and although every eï¬ort was made and assistance on hand almost immediately the horse was dead be- fore he could be got out. This is rather hard on a new comer to lose a horse just in the start. Neighbors will have an opportunity to show their good will in this case. We are pleased to see that Miss G. J. Wright is again in our midst en- joying her summer vacation. The Misses James are at present enjoying the summer holidays at the parental home. They are quite an acquisition to the Methodist choir and Epworth League during their visits. Master Rac. Watson, from Walter’s Falls, is visiting his uncle. Mr, Geo. Watson here, at present. The Rev. Mr. Varley now occupies the Methodist Parsonage, and preach- ed his ï¬rst sermon here on Sunday, 8th July. \Ve are pleased to welcome him and hope to become better ac- quainted as time rolls on. Miss 'McPhatter and Miss Fox, Owen Sound, visited at Dr. I. Buttons for a few days last week An epidimic of losses struck the inhabitants of this burg last week. Dougall McDougall lost a pocket knife, W. J. Blakeston a valise full of clothing, Bert Patton four dollars in bills, '1‘. Tudor a horse and the Vigilance Committee lost the burg- lars. The Rev. Mr. Matheson, of St. Columbia church, Priceville, returned from a trip to Halifax and Other points last week. He occupied the pulpit last Sunday and appears as if his vacation had agreed with him. Miss Norman Luck, of Markdale visited her relatives here last. week returning home on Monday last. Dear Editor, we and the children are all well heping you and your able staï¬ are no worse. Well, we all had a lovely time at the Bunessan picnic on the 12th inst. Pat enjoyed it very much in- deed and wishes he were a Scotch- man, although his wit was up in G when he heard the remarks of one of the speakers on the Englishman, Pat and the Hog. ' Mr. G.
