Brown of Riverview met with a serious accident while working in Dryden’s mill on Wednesday. Hie right arm came into contact. with the gang saws while they were in motion resulting in the laceration of the flesh and muscles of the arm from the el- bow to the hand. It was a very naro row escape from losing the arm. but Dr. Martin. who dressed the wounds, thinks there will be no difficulty in restoring in time the use of the arm. â€"Du'udalk Herald. Three young men from town who took in the garden partv at Whitfield Monday night must have had a. good timeâ€"for they didn’t get home till morning. You see they went out on their bicycles, and the heavy rain made the home trip difficult work. They had to carry the wheels instead of the wheels carrying them. It got tiresome; and the boys aren’t saying much. but is hinted that next day an old school woodehed showed signs of having been recently occupied. Any- way, as stated above, the boys didn’t get home till nwrning.-â€"Shelburne Economist. An accident happened at Mr. \Vatta’ barn raising on Thursday by which Mr. Chas. Frost was laid off work. They were raising the end of part of the purlin plate, those above hauling it up with a chain, while some below. among whom was Mr. Frost, were shoving it up with a heavy pikepole. The timber was nearly up when the chain either broke or pulled 03 and the timber went crashing to the floor and struck Mr. Frost on the call of one of his lE‘g‘S and he was otherwise temporarily hurt. A messenger was at once despatched for a doctor and Dr. McCullough was soon in atten- dance and dressed the injured limb, We are pleased to report that Mr. Frost is doing nicely.-â€"â€"Chatsworth Banner. Mr. ii. 'i‘indall and H. Pruder had3 a bear experience last week, but un~ fortunately they did not capture the game. They were driving along the road near (iravelly Point, when they espied a bear and two cubs on the road ahead. It did not take long to secure a gun, but long or short, the old bear disappeared before it arrived, and the hunters made up their minds to be satisfied with a cub, and were stealing up to get a shot. when Mrs. Bear came pounding up the road be- hind them. having evidently circled around under cover of the bush. Mr. Tindall had charge of the gun. and quickly plugged a shot into her face, which stopped her trot for a few moments and started her spinning around in the road, giving Mr. T. time to re-load. W'atching for a favorable opportunity. be planted a charge in the brute’s shoulder. but the shot was not heavy enough to disable her. and she plunged into the thick bush. leaving a trail of blood behind. This the men followed for a considerable distance until darkness overtook them. Then securing lan- terns they started in again, but the trail of blood finally disappearing they failed to come up with the quarry.â€" Purple Valley Cor. of Wiarton Cana- dian. A bad runaway accident happened at Mr. John Baird’s on the 2nd con. of Holland on Monday afternoon. Mr. Baird and Mrs. McClure. who had been visiting. were in the buggy about to start for Chateworth and Mr. Will Baird was removing the halter from the horse when the Spiri- ted animal took fright and ran away, The road runs through a stony field through which the horse ran at a furious rate and the buggy coming in contact with some large stones the seat and tap broke OE and the ocâ€" cupants were thrown out backwards. Messrs. J. I". and M. Cameron and Joseph and Thomas Mathews were at work on the road near by, and ran to their assistance. After extricating the occupants from the wreck. Mrs. McClure was brought here and taken to the home of her daughter. Mrs. Smith,where she was examined by a physician and found to be suflering from a sever: shaking up and some bruises. but no broken bones. Mr. B. was bruised and had one of his fingers dislocated. The horse was caught after a short run among the stones. bony being smashed. Mrs. McClure and Mr. Baird are both doing nicely, although pretty sore from their rough eXperience.â€"â€"Banner. _,._-._, >4 0..

Since we first began our work nearly eight hundred patients have been cared for; and the medical records show that of this number a large percent age have been completely cured, and OtllCIS sent home so greatly impxm ed that they were able to ietuxn to their: egular “wk. an overdraft, for which the Bank demands settlement, and so we need the help of all. Seven years ago, consumption was commonly believed to be incurable. The Toronto Globe, commenting editorially on our proposition to erect Permit me to state that the sum of $150,000 has already been invested in the two Gravenhurst institutions and property just outside of Toronto on which to erect a home for advanced or incurable cases of consumption. The maintenance of the existing institutions necessitates an expenditure of over $50,000 per annum, and to-daylthere is a debt of $73,000, in the form of There is no other hospital for consumptives in Canada. The demands are, therefore, urgent.

Some curious glimpses into the lite ‘ of old London are aflorded by the re-. ports made in the charity commission on the endowed charities in the county of London. For instance, in the re- ports dealing with the city parishes we have an estimate of the value set ’ sn sermons by city men in olden times. That estimate varied from 6 shillings to £1 103. One Thomas Bright had ., left a bequest for a sermofto be preach- I ed on the 5th of November every time ‘ It tell on a Sunday. the minister to get 138. 4d., the clerk 3s. 4d. and the sexton ‘. 1s. 4d. But David Gittin had a more modest idea of the value of a sermon ' in the same parish. He required two « sermons for 10 shillings, one to be ‘ preached on the second Sunday in Ad- vent and the other on the second Sun. day in Lent. The reader got 2 shil- links, the churchwarden 23. 8d. and the poor sexton tom-pence for each oc- culon. John Ireland thought 13:. «I. enough for two sermons. In 1660 John Winn left a curious be quest to the parish of St. Bennet, Paul's Wharf. A pound was set apart for an annual sermon, the text to be taken from the fifth chapter of St. John and the twenty-seventh verse. He also left enough to buy twelve penny loaves for twelve poor people of the parish who attended a sermon every Friday in the parish church. But he eXpected more for his pound than the annual sermon, for before or after the sermon the min- lster had to spend an hour examining or instructing the poor pe0ple in the Christian doctrine. ' burial." said another. "Some wife or - mother will be glad it ever she knows it." They began to dig a grave. Three feet below the surface they discovered signs of gold. The stranger was buried in another place. and where they had 'locuted a grave they opened a gold | mine. QUAINT LON DON LEGACI ES. The most generous donor of the preacher was James Wood, who thought a sermon in St. Nicholas-Coleâ€"Abbey was worth £1 108. every alternate year. In 1625 he bequeathed to the Company of Bowyers a sum to enable them, among other things, to repair to the parish church named, after they had sworn in their wardens and master ev- ery second year, there to hear a ser- mon and pay the parson £1 103. and the clerk and sexton 1s. 5d. each. In the parish of St. Michael Bassishaw one Edward Heyiin in the eighteenth century left money the interest on which was to he applied to purchasing two BIXpenny loaves each Sunday for two poor men or women who should at- tend divine service.â€"London News.

The dis. covery was accidental in both cases, and the fact created the impression that mines were “lying around loose.” Adventurers drifted about in hope of “stumbling upon a mine.” Mr. 'l‘hayer in his “Marvels or the New West" mentions several instances of lucky “stumbling.” Three men while look- ing for gold in California discovered the dead body of a man who evidently had been prospecting. “Poor fellow 1" said one of the trio. “He has passed in his cheeks.” “Let’s give him a decent Tea Drunkardl.
