' Thehail storm that passed over? the‘central portion of EaSt Garafraxa last Wednesday did considerable damage. It extended from the 8th con. over to Orangeville and ranged in width from 3 lots to 5 lots. At the 5th con. it came down rather heavy, easing off till the 12th con., when it gathered new force and swept right on to Orangeville. Most damage was done to The Maples, Mr. David Carroll estimating his lossat one thousand dollars. Several others lost heavily, but the real damage cannot be determined just yet. An- other wave of the storm passed through the north end of Luther, but was apparently of a milder nature.

Four hundred gold sox'ei-eiéus‘; were handed out by mistake for four 3 hundred coppers at the Dominionl Bank at Orillia last week. The miswg take Was made in this way. A \veil‘ known fur and hide buyer came iuto' the bank the other (23.3.1 and asked for $4 womb of coppers. They were handed to him ina bag, which lie~| took away. Subsequently it wasl discovered that the bag contained gold sovereigns instead of toppers.1 Naturally the mistake caused con- siderable petnrbation. _. Constable George Clark was communicated with and instructed to trace the coin. The buyer had gone to Goldwater, and readily turned over the bag when asked for it, never having noticed that he was carrying gold instead of cOpper. He refused to accept the reward profiered him.â€"Orillia Packet, E. J. FREE, M. [1, C. OFFXCEâ€" In EXCHANGE ECHOES.

Elora, Jul) 2-;zn.--An unfortunate accident happ i:t‘-i this afternoon, rec sultingin the lea-'h of Mr. McIntyre, who lived in kioyne, close to the railway bridge. One of his pigs got. into the river, and to save it he went. out on a raft. The river rose with remarkable rapidity this afternoon during the heavy rain storm, and it is supposed he lost his balance and fell into the water. However that may be, he, in anycase, was at a disadvantage, as he had only one arm having been deprived of the other by an accident some years ago while putting up a smokestack. Eflorts are being made to recover the body. but owing to the muddy condition of the water and the strong current, very little can be accomplished as yet. He leaves a widow and family, who have the sincerest sympathy of the whole neighborhood.â€"--Guelph Mercury. Says an American exchange: J’ohn I).

An unfortunate occurence in con-l nection with the unfortunate lacrosse match in Markdale last Friday was the death on the road home of one of Baird Son’s livery horses.

Vertical handwriting is to be abandoned in the Public schools of New York, and a return made to slanting Spencerian system. The rea- son given for the return is that the vertical system is now regarded as a fad that the style is not liked by business houses. so that the scholars from the Public schools had the, slanting system to learn if they en-l tered commercial life. Superinten-i (lend Jasper, of New York, is authority for the statement that the ivertical system is, in fact, merely a hobby, for which certain school prin- cipals, who are always hunting new things, and certain text book pnblish- ers, who are ingenious purveyors of educational novelties, are responsible. This is undoubtedly true. It is to be honed. now the reaction has set in, that the abominable fad will Soon be a thing of the paSt, excluded from our schools and soon be forgotten.â€" Barrie Advanceâ€"[Perhaps it is a ‘fad, but when well written it makes 1 good printers’ copy.-â€"Ed.] ‘ Mrs. Ryan, the proprietress of the notorious Rockford whiskey dive, has played with the law once too often. Several times she has been fined for selling liquor without lic- ense, and each time with penitent tears has promised to transgress no more it let off with a fine. Several $50 have been disgorged by her into the provincial exchequer, but in or- der that the woman might not be sent to jail Inspector Pearce entered the cases as first offences. A couple of weeks ago the inspector was in- formed that liquor was still being3 sold by Mrs. Ryan, and tired of} leniency he swore out another infor- . mation charging the woman with a second offence. Mrs. Ryan did not obey the summons to appear before the magistrate, but sent word that she could not leave her aged father, who was hourly eXpected to die. The latter was buried on Saturday, but even then no attention was paid to a second summons. The evidence for the prosecution was therefore taken and in default of rebuttal testi- imony a conviction was made by Mr. John Rutherford, J . P. The statutes fixes the penalty at four months" im- Prisonment in the common jail,'the magistrate having discretionary pow- er only as regards hard labor. This was not included in the case. The woman has not yet been apprehended. though a warrant for her committal to jail has been issued.â€"O. S. Times. THE DURHAM CHRONICLE.
