IN referring last week to the opera- tion Mrs. Laidlaw underwent a few days previously it seems we were in error in saying that the wound never healed after an original operation. We have since been informed that it did heal perfectly and that the trouble. which necessitated the last operation was liable to occur at any time, and to any person. THE traction engine which went through the Cemetery bridge last May and stood on the river bank all summer has been put in repair by Mr. Smith so ‘thatib drew itself into town last Week. It needed quite a number of new pieces which were procured from ‘Vhiteéz Sons the manufacturers in London. MRS. THOS. REID had an accident by which one of hex- arms was fractur- ed between the wrist. and the elbow. She was out driving with her son and on meeting Mr. Smith’s traction engine the horée took fright, made a sudden turn and precipitated both to the ground. The horse then ran away and did considerable damage to the buggy. THIS is the 2nd of Sept. and not an acre of wheat cut in the,Moosomin district.

WE have received a goodly number of subscriptions on arrears during the past, few weeks and the labels have now been changed. If by any means we have made an omission let us know as we wish to have everything right. There are still a number Who have not paid up, but we hope to have them do so before costs are incurred. \Ve wish to be fai ' and honest with everybody. but the axe will fall soon. Do not think for a moment we are playing a gamé of bluff. as We will certainly place our subscription accounts in oth- er hands for collection as we have said we would. Only those who pay up are any good to us, and those who don’t intend to pay we don’t want on our lists. Hurry up and settle before costs 1 are added. Severe sorrow entered the home of i Mr. and Mrs. Robert Ewen, of this town on Saturday morning when their daughter a young woman in her twentieth year died very unexpected- ly. About two weeks ago she became ill showing signs of fever and it was thought she might be taking typhoid. Medical attendance was at once sum- moned but no alarming symptoms were discovered until \Vednesday when she suffered severe pain, and it was then decided that appendicitis was the cause of her ailment. An opera- tion was decided on and as the case wasa very severe one there was no time to be lost. Accordingly Drs. Jamieson, Maclaurin and Gun under- took the task, which, though apparent- ly all right at the first terminated fatally on Saturday morning early. It’s a sad blow to the sorrowing father and mother, who retired from their farm labors, but recently, and settled in this town to spend the evening of their lives. Interment took place 'on Monday afternoon. We extend Our heartfelt sympathy to Mr. and Mrs. Ewen and the son-owing relatives, knowing what it means to see the vacant chair. -â€" DIED .
