GRANT. \VB regret to chronicle the sudden and somewhat unexpected death on Sunday morning last of Mrs. George Anderson. of Glenelg, near Pomona. The lady who was about seventy years of age had been ailing for about a year from an aflection of the heart and a combination of other ailments, but her immediate death was not looked for. On Saturday night, however. she took a bad turn, and on Sunday morning the end came while she was sitting in her chair. The deceased was a native of Primside Mill, Roxboro’, Scotland, and came to this country about fifty years ago with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Adam Weir. Sr.. and settled in Glenelg where she remained ever since. She leaves to mourn her loss a husband and five children. The children are Jennie and Maggie, now married and settled in Manitoba. and Mary Martha and Adam still at home. Two brothers. John and Adam Weir. residing in Glenelg, and a sister, .\lrs. Robertson, in Kansas, mourn the loss of their deceased sister. Mrs. Anderson was a staunch Pres- byterian all her life, but withal lib- eral in her Christian views, and re. joiced at the success a! other religions bodies. Interment took place to ,Zionpemeteg on Tuesday last. Ber. A VERY pleasing event took place last Wednesday, when Miss Mary Milligan. of Bentinck, was united in wedlock to Mr. 'l'hos. Mighton, of the same place. The ceremony was per- formed at the rectory at seven in the evening. by the Rev. Mr. Ryan. 'I‘hev were supported through the trying ordeal by Miss Winnie Reid and Mr. Joseph Corbett. The bride looked very charming in a beautiful gown of pearl grey whip-cord trimmed with pale blue silk and pearl trimmings. The bridesmaid also looked handsome in white lawn trimmed with pale blue silk and rib- bon. After the ceremony they drove to the bride’s home where a supper was prepared for the occasion, after which the evening was Spent with music and other amusements. Mr Smith vicinity TOM JAcxsox, of the Glen, tells us to hit the Grand Trunk hard for het- tcr yard accommodation. He’s not the first to talk in this way, and we think with him that from the large amount of shipping doneJiere the conipnny should go to a little ex- pense to accommodate the farm- ers. There is one thing certain they will do nothing if the agitation doesn’t come from the public. We are here to agitate fairly for any necessary reform, and our columns are open for the full and fair discus- sion of all such problems. Wm: HAVE sent accounts to a num- bur -in «ml around town.

A careful analysis of the marl shows that. it contains 98.05 per cent. carbonate of lime. “ ’l'he splendid manner in which the company has undertaken the erection of this enormousplant at Durham will undoubtedly result in the addition of another valuable manufacturing industry to the coun- try. and it will demonstrate the fact that Canadians are rapidly taking advantage of the excellent facilities which their country affords them to increase its wealth and prosperity.” The Owen Sound Sun says: “ No industry in Canada to-dayofl'ers a better field for profitable enterprise than the manufacture of Portland cement. This business is just spring- ing to its prime in this country and is one of which every Canadian should be proud. At the present time Canada is importing over one- half of the cmnent used here from England and Germany, while the uses of the product are growing faster than its sources of supply. As an instance of this it is only nec- essary to point to the fact that in Owen Sound houses are now being built with this material and the town is seriously considering the idea of constructing cement bridges. The Sun has frequently referred to the big works located here and elsewhere in Canada. All the plants are ex- tensive, but according to the latest reports the long-talked of works at Durham are to be larger than any of the other concerns.” The railway switch to the machine shop and wet grinding building is now bejng constructed. The mnchine shop is about com- pleted. 'l‘he slaters are at work and will finish the roof this week. Good progress.

Durham, Ont., Thursday, November 28, 1901. CEMENT NOTES. .4 0.0 --4 Relatives and friends to the num- ber of about eighty assembled at the residence of Mr. Wm. Long, Egre- mont, on Wednesday, Nov. 20th, to 'witness the marriage of his niece, Miss Isabella B. Brodie, eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Brodie, of Glenelg, to Mr. Wm. B. McKenzie, of Dromore. The marriage ceremony, which took place at 5 o’clock p. m., was performed by Rev. D. Campbell, of Amos Church, Dromore. The groom was supported by Mr. Robt. Brodie, brother of the bride, while Miss Mary Neal assised the bride. The fair bride was gowned in cream serge trimmed with cream satin] cream ribbon and pearls, and wore a white wreath with bows of cream ribbon in her hair, while the brides- maid looked pretty attired in silver grey serge trimmed with pink satin, pink ribbon and pearls. with white wreath and bows of pink ribbon in her hair. The bride’s after-dress was grey serge with cream satin trim- ming; the bridesmaid’s brown serge with brown velvet trimming. After the ceremony, the guests repaired to the dining-room where a sumptuous wedding depuner was served. The remainder of the evening was spent in gamee:‘and amusements of various kinds. Among the elderly persons present 'who added gree'itly to. the pleasure and enjOyment of the even- ing were Mr. and Mrs S. Neal, from near Varney. Ilr. and Mrs. D. Brodie. [torn near'llarkdale, and Mr. and Mrs. A. McKenzie, Egremont, parents of the bridesmaid, the bride and the groom, respectively. The esteem in whichthe young people is held was evinced by e splendid array of costly, well-eelected and useful wedding presents; VThe happy couple will spend e brief honeymoon with f riende at Merkdele, Owen Sound and points north, efter which they will take up their residence on the 18th conces- eion ofB‘renom . A new belonging to a farmer resid- ing near Ottawa made a mealtf a wad of hills. and the animal had to be slaughtered in order to recover the money. The btlls amounted to $145) and were in a coat which the farmer had hung up on the fence. The cow. which felt the pangs of hunger for a rich diet. came along and knocked down the coat, the money falling out of the pocket. The bovine tackled the bills. and Soon the farmer’s savings were undergo- ing digeStion process. The cow was chewing at the coat when the agriculturist discovered her. and he concluded that the money had been swallowed by the animal. The latter was at once slaughtered. and the fragments of the bills were found in the stomach. The pieces were put in a bag, brought to the bank of Ot- tawa, and the clerks there succeeded in getting the numbers of bills to the extent of $135. A Yankee undertaker advertiseS after this manner:-â€"â€"“ Why live and be miserable when you can be com- fortabl' buried for twenty dollars. ’" We may expect something of the kind over here soon. Don’t be surprised when you take up your newspaper if you read this sort of thing: "Billy Morgan looked down the barrel of his daddy’s gun to see where the bullet, went when it went off. The funeral was handsomely comlmted by Smith 00., who h :we alu .tys a large stafl’ on hand and are open to bury the whole neivhborhood on twenty-four hours’ notice, A pound of tea given away with every cofiin Order early and avoid disappoint- ment.” When you ask a man to subscribe for your paper and he says, “ Oh, I never read much, and besides. the times are too plagued hard,” apolo- gize and leave him. Life is too short to teach a jack soprano. All gentle- men nowadays read newspapers. and lots of them. Show us a man “110 lives for years in a town or commun- ity and never subscribes {or the papers published there and we will show you a man whose head is shaped like a piece of pie, with the point up. and whose ignorance is only exceeded by his gigantic gall. We had a tramp solicitor for a line of cheap commercial stationery in town last week. He wanted us to do some work at less than cost of material. but we sent him on. If the printers in this country do the work for what he claims tlfey do, the lunatic asylum should have a new wing added. Do ladies go to church on very stormy Sundays to hear what the preacher has to say, or do they go simply to Show their new furs? A modest druggist has been in trouble for the past two or three weeks because he heard a young lady Speak of 9. horses ”fur.” He always thought. it was hair. Some peOple are so thin in the skin that they should go into the wopl business so as not to get hurt. McKenzieâ€"Brodie N uptials. HITS AND MISSES.
