THE Man on the Street informs usl that ariver isa fine institution to have in a town. A few weeks ago he stood on the bridge at midnight, and was poetically inspired as he witness- ed the shadows of the stumps reflect- ed from the placid bosom of the Saugeen. Not only is a river an esthetic acquisition to an up-to-date town. but it may also be made of‘ utilitarian value, as a cheap mode to transport the damaged chickens. geese and turkeys. of town merchants and others who feel themselves over- loaded with such acommodity. This is one of the uses the Man on the Street says was made recently of our noble river. He said he thought it wasn’t right. but we can’t see any ground for complaint. What could be more conducive to the health and happiness of the community than to breath an atmosphere that was thor- roughly fragrant with the aroma of rowan noose?

CHIEF CARSON was out last week to take the soundings in Wilder’s Lake. Big Bill says he heard the sound. THIS week a partnership was enter- ed between T. J.

The concern Wlll go by the Firm name of Jordan and Burnett, and their new ad. will appear next week. They are both popular, and will. no doubt, control the grocery business. WE were pleased last week to have a call from one of our old school boys. Mr. McCubbin, who was under our instruction twenty-two years ago in the town of Leamington. He is now a Civil Engineer. and lives in St. Thomas where he is doing well. \Ve weren’t fishing for compliments when he told us we had still many friends in Leamington who regarded the humble scribe as the best teacher the school ever had. \Ve assure our readers that some of them didn’t ON Saturday last Mr. R. T. Ed- wards, of Traverston, called at this office and ordered out a small ad. he put in about some colts he had for sale. Knowing the notice would bring buyers he intended to have it inserted only once, and if we mistake not be disposed of all the animals be- fore the next issue. We left the item in, however, for a couple of1 weeks longer, and he tells us that prospective purchasers are still com- ing. What’s true in Mr. Edwards’ case is true in nearly every case. A small amount expended in advertis- ‘ing in THE CHRONICLE will bring the buyer and seller together in nearly every case. THE CHRONICLE is found in many homes in Durham and vicin- ity. and we feel safely within the bounds of truth when we say it is the best advertising medium in South think so.

THE MONTH OF NOVEMBER. to le a WATCH.” JEWELLERY STORE £ . . «.9 9-4 DURHAM, ONT. A MAGISTRATE’S Court was held here on Tuesday afternoon before Justices Ryan. of Aytun, and Craw- ford, of this place. The charge pre- ferred was made by Principal Allan in behalf of the' Lord’s Day Alliance against a number of the Cement Company’s employees for a violation of the Lord's Day Act by working on the dredge at Wilder’s Lake on Sun- day. the ‘26th day of October. Twelve! summonses in all were served, and‘ seven cases were disposed of. It is hardly necessrry to give the names of those who appeared. nor is it practicable to find space for the vol- ume of evidence taken down in con- nection with the trial. The investi- gation went to show, however. that the employees engaged in the work on the request of the foreman carpen- ter, who took his instructions from Mr. Farr, the superintendent here, and who takes his instructions from the Cement Co. It is therefore to be inferred, or rather to be seen, that the Company were the prime movers in causing the work to he done on the Sunday in question. No attempt was made by any one to deny the charge of having worked, but the plea of the experts of the Company, who gave evidence in the case, went to show that the work was a work of necessity. The magistrates found a case. and taxed each a dollar and costs, deciding to be as lenient as , possible as this was the first offence. County Crown Attorney Armstrong for plaintiff. Wm. Kingston, Mt. Forest, and W. F. Dunn of MacKay Dunn for defendents. Con. Knapp Buys a New Hotel at the Canadian Soo. Sault Ste Marie (Mich) Evening J onrnai, Nov. 1. A deal is now being arranged for the sale of the Windsor hotel. The consideration is $50,000. The name of the purchaser is Con. Knapp, of Owen Sound, one of the best known hotel men in Ontario, The price has been agreed upon, $20,- 000 paid on it and the parties now are only waiting for the arrival of Mr. Knapp and the signing of the necessary papers. The \Vindsor hotel is on the corner of Queen and Brock streets and does a large business. James Breen has owned it for several years past. and it is nnderstood that he would not have sold out had it not been for the fact that he is in very poor health and desires to retire from business. Mr. Knapp is expected to-morrow, and it is expected that the change in management will take place some time next week. On Friday last THE CHRONICLE was honored with acall from Mr. John H. Teall, of Tilsonburg. Gen. Manager of Lake Erie and Pacific Ry., and G. A. McCubbin, Civil Engineer, of St. Thomas. The former gentleman is interested in the railway running from Port Dover to Ingersol, and both gentlmen are touring the coun- try with a View to extending the road to CollingWood by way of points near Stratford, Arthur, Flesherton and Thornbury. Their mission here was to ascertain particulars and learn of any advantages in the way of bus- iness if the road were made to touch Durham instead of running several miles to the east of it. The physical features of the country were claimed to be somewhat uninviting, and the short interview left very little ap- parent encouragement that they would come this way. The most practicable route to Collingwood, ac- cording to what we could learn in the interview, would be by way of Flesherton, thence down the Beaver Valley to Thornbury, and along the shore of the Georgian Bay to Calling- wood. The road would then tap a large territory now unprovided with railway facilities, and also facilitate transportation between Lake Erie and Georgian Bay. We took the gentlemen to the Office of the Cement Co in order that they might have ashort interview with the managers, but it was too soon after the noon hour to find any of them in. and want of time as well as other circumstances, prevented their return at a later hour. It seems to us that a railway from Lake Erie to Georgian Bay would he an immense advantage to the Company in furnishing a direct line for the i import of coal as well as more direct communication with the Canadian North-west, where large shipments of cement will doubtless be made. The question is an important one, and as the road is ins. fair way of going ahead, it would be well for the business men of the town to take the matter up and Investigate its merits.
