The True: factory has been an ex- ceedingly fortunate inetitution as re. gards fire. So far it has come 05 ecathlesa, but on Monday of this week there came pretty nearly being acon- flagration. The roof of the factory caught fire from a Spark {rem the dry kiln, and before being noticed had burnt a hole through it. Then the men noticed the smoke, and at once got busy in the endeavor to put-the fire out. They were not king about it, but if the fire had maée a little more headway before being noticed. it would have been probably impossi- ble to put it out at -a.ll.â€"â€"Telescope. Mr. M. C.

A Jew named Andrews went all through this part of the countrya few months ago. peddling Spectacles 'ithout a license. He was armed with a skilfully constructed permit, signed bya spectacle manufacturer in Hamilton. which purported to make him their authorized agent, and while this paper was in reality only abluff. it was sufficient to prOtecr. him from prosecution. so far as most of the constables were concerned Constable Russell. however, refused to accept this bluff, went on with his case. and the fellow was fined $50 and costs. He promptly appealed. and the matter was to come up before Judge Barrett last week. At the last moment, Andrews abandoned the ap- peal and the conviction stands. Russell deserves credit for his nerve and knowledge of the law.

They were sitting out on the lawn in the evening when it started to rain and they get up to go into the house. They had barely reached the door when a most terrific peel of thunder occurred. foHowed by ‘ ,. - ‘n- 7-, _..L:-L a cracked egg from a Broadway merchant. put it in his incubator and the next morning a chicken very much alive came forth from the shell. The egg had been bought with Others by the merchant ft om a local farmer about two o‘clock in the afternoon, so that it had been out of the nest ten or twelve hours before it reached Mr. Mann. When one of the merchant’s hands came to sort the eggs be notic- ed the cracked one and thought he heard a noise in it as of a chicken trying to break its bonds. He laid the fractured egg aside. but forgot all about it till Mr. Mann called late at night. The chicken is likely to develop into a hardy hen or rooster, but what about the lesson to be drawn as to the character of eggs bought and sold in Orangeville? This par- ticular egg was no doubt taken from a nest which had been abandoned and it is not improbable that it had sever- al uncracked companions which were disposed cf in town and sold later to local callers. or shipped to the city. -â€"Orangeville Post.

Perry in a boyish manner ran ahead of the rest and getting rid of his clothes in short order was in the water before the rest had come up. It would appear from the story told by the boy 3 that Perry, who was wa- ding became unbalanced by the rapids and falling, was carried by the swift current a dietauce of probably fifty feet into water about 8 feet deep where he sank from view.

Among the excursionis's on the Niagara trip last week was H. E Willet and wife. Although their ticket was good to return. thus far the railway has failed to bring them back.
