This is a real old fashioned summer? and some of the older people of the' community are trying to recall the time when so great a heat was exper- I I ienced for so long a period. Is’s no‘ trouble to keep warm now-a-days, and : in such a torrid atmosphere it seems; enough for an ordinary mortal to bear : the sweltering heat without attempt-5 ing to do much else. “Gosh it’s hot”. said Archie Davidson as he passed through our sanctum as we tried to: write a few words about the tempera- ture. “It’s awfully torrid” said Jim Smith who wouldn’t indulge in a word so much like swearing as the one that . slipped out of Archie. “It’s 98 in thel shade“ said Willard Porter as be wiped down the great beads of sweat from his righteous forehead.

These young people have a great future before them. if they only apply themselves in the right (inaction and we hope they will. How many with better opportunities have fritter- ed away their time doing nothing or perhaps worse than nothing. Some leaned up against the hotel, and one called out ’Tis hot as well. we forget just the word he used, but we imagine it was good Anglo Saxon and can be found in the diction- ary by any of our readers. It will not belong till the change comes and we’ll all be singing another tune and have as much inclination to go to the Equator as we now have to climb the North Pole. BARN BURNED BY LIGHTNING. One of the fiercest thunder storms of the season passed over here on Sun- day aftermmn. 'l‘ne rain came down in torrents and tl. ‘ thunder and light- ning were terrific- for a time. Some of the electric light~ and the local instru- ments of the tell-phone company were put out of business. but no casualties occurred in town. About a mile out, however. the line frame barn of John and Canneron McKenzie was struck by lightning and totally destroyed. in- cluding," the Whole season's crop which they had just finished housing the night before. One of the boys was home at the tim-- and the other was in town. The sharp crash aroused the attention of the young man at ho me, but on looking towards the barn could see nothing unusual. A few minutes after he was astounded to find the whole barn in a blaze, and no chance to save much. He removed a horse and wagon, however. from the burning building, but was unable to do any- thing further. more than exert; his energies in saving a nearby shed and other buildings. Much sympathy is felt fut' the young men who were very unass uning in their-"manner and high- ly esteemed by the whole community. The ham was comparatively new. be- ing built only a few years and will cost a great deal of money to replace it now that timber and lumber are so expensive. The crop was a very good one, and had the boys been able to reap a return for their industry the ’product of the season would put them ‘ in good shape. We understand there kwas an insurance of $1600 on the build- ing and contents. but that this will . not- nearly cover the loss. “'EBSTERâ€"In Durham, on Sunday, Aug. 19th.. to Mr. and Mrs. Robt. \Vebster, a son.

In imagination We can scarcely conceive of its vastness. To the ordinary mind, unacquainted with the area of our western prOVinces and territories. it would seem that the great influx of pOpulation would soon fill up the whole land, but yet we are told that the country is only beginning to be peo- pled and there’s yet room for millons more. Railroads are being built, and the back country of a year ago now occupies a front position in the new order of things.
