Fortune did not favor the S'ewart’s in their new borne and they decided to move back to their former home. In April last they started the long journey in six W‘K' Rons and the other day arrived in Windsor on their way to Owen Sound. Mr. Stewart says that many families in Washington are leaving their land there and moving into the Canadian North-west -:Ayton Ad- vance.

Sr.. fell from one of the sills of the barn, a distance of about 19 feet _ receiving injuries that will lay him up for several weeks. Threshing had stopped at the call for dinner, and Mr. Alliss attempted taking a short cut to get to the first floor in the barn. instead of waiting to go down by the ladder. He failed in his calculation and drapped to the floor lighting on his feet His ankles and legs were badly injured.-â€"Tara Leader. John Heard of this place sued Fred Deagle of the Electric light plant for $60, alleged damage to shade trees fronting his property east of the vil- lags. The case was tried at the Divi- sion Court last week Deagle trimmed certain trees when erecting his line nearly two years ago. Him- self and two witnesses swore that the late J. H. Heard was present and superintended some of the work. and held that it was with his consent. that it was done. Judge Morrison in pronouncing judgment said he thought the late J. H Heard had supposed Mr. Deagle had a legal right to trim the.trees without con- sent and awarded the plaintifl $65 and costs. The case was brought by plaintifi as executor of the estate of On Thursdsy evening at 7 45 a C. P.

J Frost had a narrow es- cape from instant death on Monday afternoon at the Grey and Bruce Cement Co’s mill. where he is chem ist. Mr; Frost was on a platform above one of the slurry tanks. and was in conversation with Mr. Lynn, manager of the works Between them was a shaft revolving at the rate of 180 revolutions a minute, connecting with the slurry mixer. Mr. Frost leaned over the shaft to ;hear what Mr. Lynn was saying :The plank on which he was standing lwas slippery with wet marl, and he lost his footing and fell forward on the shaft. His clothes caught and he was whirled round at the rate of three times a second. until he was finally freed-by Mr. Lynn, .He had three ribs broken, and was badly bruised about the head and arms. He was conveyed to his home on Jackson istreet and is under the care of Dr. Rev. Mr. Mavety. Methodist minis ter. of Kemptville, writes to the press regarding the “ Home Paper ” thus ;â€"â€""I have been led to wonder how a family can afiord to do without this weekly visitor. We may dis- pense with many things and not sulf- er much loss but the home greatly needs the local news which can be gathered from no other source. Let none say “I cannor afford it” when it comes at less than two cents per week. To bright-en the home we need this weekly guest. Next to the Bible. in my judgment, is the news- paper iu the home. Let none say “I cannot afford it ” for you cannot afl’ord to do without these. Many may say “ I have no time to read the paper." I think we succeed better when we take the time. We need these papers for our own personal benefit, for the profit of the home and for the good of our country. T. H.

Mr. Frost may consider himself fortunate as few men who mix up with a shaft get off so easy.â€"Owen Sound Sun. A general meeting of the Directors! of the Electric Railway Company.‘ was held in Walkerton. on Tuesday of this week. There was a good at- tendance. directors being present from Flesherton. Durham. Lucknow, Toronto. Meaford and other points. The Walkerton section was well. re- presented. Mr. May reported having entered into a contract with a com- pany to construct at least ten miles: of the road. north or west of Flesh- erton. by the first of July 1905. For that purpose. it was necessary that a sufficient number of the present Directors should resign, so that the new company could put enough of their own men on Board to have a ;majority which they deemed nec- essary, as they were putting their money into the undertaking. They have subscribed one hundred thous- and dollars of which ten thousand are paid as. Mr. May gave a bond, conditioned for the carrying out of this agreement, and several of the Exchange Echoes. R.

Miss Kreutzkamp on Sunday evening The party were driving in from visiting relatives in Sullivan by the Desboro line when they were overtaken by the terrific thunder- storm which passed over that section shortly after seven o’clock. A flash of lightning darted down and struck the earth with a terrific report scarcely fifty feet in front of them Though the horse was startled it did not make any eflort to run away. The flash was so close that the eyes of Mr. Kennedy and Miss Kreutz- kamp felt as though they had been torn from their sockets. Mrs. Ken- nedy who was screened from the light by her husband, did not feel the same sensation but all three were victims of the nerve racking bolt Notwithstanding the painful efl'ects of the flesh it was decided to drive through to town. Entering lamp- light left a hazy sight and a stinging sensation. On Monday light brought with it more or less pain and Dr. Burt was ccnsultcd. That no per- manent injury had occurred was his diagnosis ofthe case and recovery has been rapid A curious fact is that the ho.se which Mr. Kennedy was driving was quite blind on Mon- day, but is showing evidence of re- covery.-â€"-â€"Owen Sound Times.

One instance is reported of a ,,clever” man in town who is supposed to know all about a horse and every- thing else on the [ace of the earth. He had a broncho which did not suit him very wellâ€"it had a habit of stopping on the road for an hour at a time to view the landscape or in other cases of wanting to quickly go somewhere whether Mr. Man wished to go or not. It simply did as it }liked. such as breaking a set of ha:- ness or playfully kicking a buggy to pieces for pure amusement. Its owner could not see the joke, so he coaxed the dear broncho out to the camp “just to have a look around you know.” A trade was soon ar ranged our clever chap giving con- lsiderable boot.
