Miss Dick returned again to her millinery business, which, of course, was running full time during her absence. Miss Dick’s mission to Toronto was partly to get possession of the latest ideas in mill- inery notions for the coming season, and also to purchase largely of Spring flood, which are soon to arrive. years near Guelph, their family mov- ed to Glenelg where they have re31d~ ed for over fifty years. The remain- ing members of the family are Norman in town, Archie at Bad Axe, Michigan, Mrs. Paterson at Flint, Michigan. Angus in California. and Mrs. Hartwell and Mrs. Cole on the old homestead. The remains were interred in Durham cemetery on Sunday afternoon last. Tm; latest improvement in the way of cleanliness and good taste dis- played in town is the cleaning out of stove-pipes on the street and leaving thereon numerous heaps of soot as a result of the operation. It is so very pleasant you know to have such contrasty black spots to relieve the monetony of clean white streets. And then to stand on the lee side of one of these piles on a windy day and get full in the face a cloud of dirty soot. is so conducive to pure .mora‘ls ‘VV'I Iv vv vv â€"â€" and polite language. Verily, the inventor of this refined method of beautifying the streets should be waited on by an influental deputation and publicly presented with a leather Local News Items You the past couple of months we have neen so crowded with job work that we have been forced to allow our paper to go out on several occas- ions without being proof read. In- stead of making an apology we trust this explanation will satisfy our readers as to the reason of misspelled words, omissions and other irregular- ities. To make matters worse the illness of Mr. Archie McDougall. our chief shOp man. added to our difficul- ties. Though improving in health, Mr. McDougall is still unable to take his place. 03 Friday of last week Glenelg township lost an old and respected resident in the person of Christina McLellan, relict of the late Duncan McIntyre. The deceased lady was eighty-six years of age, being born in North Uist. Scotland. 1817. About filtyofive years ago, with her husband and three children. she came to this country. After living two or three WI: regret. very much to announce thia week the death of Mr. Thomas Brown which occurred on Monday evening last. The deceased was in his fileieth year. a good business man and the eaeence oi honor in all hie. dealing". He was a eon of Mr. Jae.

His mission here was to spy out the land with a view to start an industry in Canada. Geographically, Durham suits him all right, and in a short interview we found him favorable to locating here. The industry will. if Started. give employment to not less than thirty workmen, some of whom will be skilled mechanics in tin line of high class iron working. What Mr. Broomall prOposes to ask by way of a loan or tax exemptions. we are not in a position to say. but the prob- ability is the council will be inter- ‘ viewed with the object of giving something by way of encouragement. He purposes returning to town again in two weeks, and in the meantime . it would be well to get possession of 'all available information in connec. ‘tion with such industries, so that an intelligent grasp of the situation may be had and acted on liberally if the scheme is to be of benefit to the town. Our Opinion now is that Dur- ham should continue to encourage manufacturing industries. and situ- ;ated as we are in the centre of an i agricultural anddairying country, it seems that an industry for the man- ' ufacture of cream separators is wor- l thy of consideration. 35 ONLY trimmed has on «10 Thursday morning 'tt a. «wry low price.â€"Miss Dick. FOR’ some months past we have had in our midst a few respectable colored people. That these people are civil and law abiding, that they mind their own business and do not interfere with others. we have al- ways heard. As such. they deserve the protection of the citizens and, if necessary, of the law. It is not creditable to us as a community that these people should continue to be subjected to intolerable annoyance because of the color of their skin or the cast of their countenance. We boast a free country, equal rights and the broadest liberty to all citi- zens without reference to color creed or station. ‘ To maintain our boast we must resolutely protect our own rights. and as determinedly insist that the rights of others shall be re. spected.

ROAD IMPROVEMENTâ€"That the mun- icipalities around Durham are devot- ing considerable attention to the improvement of their highways, is evidenced by the purchases of im- proved road-inakingmachinery. Last summer the townships of Normanby and Egremont purchased road grad- ers, and last week the Bentinck Coun- cil followed suit by placing an order for an np-to-date road grader with the Sawyer Massey Co. through their local agent here, Mr. Thos. Noble. No doubt Durhaln'and Glenelg will {all in line also. F. W. Luau? will sell his Stock tad lmplomont by auction Wednes- dty, Narch 4. Look out. for bill.

Mr. Geo. Thompson, of the Furnit- ure Factory. was married last week in Flesherton to Miss Tenn. McLean, of this town. An interesting letter was received this week from Mr. R. S. McGowan who lett recently for Ruckmart, Ga. Like all good boys who go away from Durham he wanted to get the Chron- icle for the home news. We hope he’ll not. feel bad if we use a part of his letter. He says :â€" We arrived here Saturday evening after a very pleasant trip through Michigan,0hio.l{entukcy. Tennessee. and this state. doing all the travel- ling in daylight. The scenery through parts of Kentucky and Tennessee is particularly fine.
