Bootb’s Hyomei Company. Bufialo, N. Y. During the thunder storm on Sun-5 day afternoon. lightning caused con- siderable damage to the home of Mr. Arch. Wilson, lot two. concession three. Derby, and all but finished the earthly existence of a couple of Mr. Wilson’s neighbors. Along with Mr. and Mrs. Abra. Mr. Wilson and his wife were out on the verandah in front of the house watching the storm, and Mrs. Wilson was in the act of entering the doorway when a bolt of lightning Struck the roof tear-i ing off the ridgeboard and shingles and passing down through the ceiling into the room below and out at the door through which Mrs. Wilson was passing. The paper on the wall was scorched and in addition to a couple of large holes in the ceiling and roof, a large strip was torn off the screen door, while the whole place was fill- ed with smoke and sulphurous smell. Fortunately no fire ensued. All four inmates were badly stunned by the shock though Mr. and Mrs. Wilson quickly recovered and went to the assistance of Mr. and Mrs. Abra, who appeared to have received more 'severe injury. They were assisted into the house and a physican sum- ! moned. Mr. r‘ bra appeared to be the worst 0E of the two and was unable to move his left leg below the knee. He is now slowly recovering and will soon be all right again. Mrs. Abra as well as Mr. and Mrs. Wilson are as well as ever though they have no desire to repeat the experience I through which they have passed. â€"0. IS. Times. GREAT DEMAND FOR HARVEST HELP. Western Farmers Want Men for Late Harvestâ€"C.P.R. Will Run Extra. Excursion. Although several thousand men have gone west on earlier excursions the demand for harvest help still considerably exceeds the supply. la. test advices from Winnipeg stating that farmers everywhere are short- handed. Despite rumors of frost and short crops, there is well-paid work in the field for all comers. A last opportunity {or laborers is ofiered by the Canadian Pacific, which has ar- ranged to run an extra Farm Labor~ ers’ Excursion to Winnipeg, leaving all Ontario stations, east and west, Tuesday. September 17th. Same conditions will apply as on earlier excursions. going trip $12.00 ; return for $18.00 additional, after at least one month’s work harvesting.

MacVicar on Monday evening of last week. For some time back Mr. MacVicar had been under severe mental strain, so much so that he felt a nervous collapse was near. Aiew weeks ago he placed his resignation in the hands of the Presbytery which came as a shock to the congregation to whom he had ministered for eleven years and to whom he had endeared him- self. The congregation met and de- cided to ofier him six months’ leave of absence, to pay his salary and a .substitute during this time, but Mr. ;MacVicar decided to press his resig- Enation. so that the Presbytery finally 'acceuted it. Expressions of the Ikindliestfeelings were given by the lather. ministers of Fergus. Addresses !breathing the deepest afiection and irespect were read to both Mr. and Mrs. HacVicar. Mr. MacVicar was , presented with a purse of $225 and {Mrs. MacVicar ‘with a handsome travelling case fully equipped and a 810 gold piece. Both made suitable replies. On Wednesday they left for, Montre‘alfland thence they will {0 to Europe for a time.â€"Mt. Forest Con- fedrate. STRUCK BY LIGHTNING. Labor Day was fittingly celebrated ‘ by the difierent labor organizations in the city. A trades’ procession in the forenoon and a fine program of sports in the afternoon filled up the day’sjun. In connection wi‘h the Sports the chief interest centred in a road race from St Mary’s to Srrat ford. This race ended at the grand stand in the athletic grounds. The runners had to run around the race course twice after entering grounds. thus making a total distance of 13% miles. One follow from Toronto kept the lead till the race course was reached and there he was passed by "Dick” Grant, of St. Marys. The Torontonian collapsed shortly after and was carried 03 the grounds in a fainting condition. The winner put in 'a sprint at the finish that brought thunders of applause from spectators Grant’s time was 1 hour 24 min. and 36 sec., which is pretty good work for an amateur. Thirty seven run ners toed the mark at St. Marys and 1 24 ran the whole distance. the rest‘ dropping out at different points along" the road. The public and high schools opened up for business on Tuesday with a fine attendance in every room. In fact many of the rooms were over- crowded although it is only a com- paratively short time ago that the stafi was considerably increased. Our population is increasing very rapidly, and it is only a matter of a few years before our School Board will have to face the problem of in- creased accommodation, in fact that problem is requiring solution already as many departments are overcrowd ed for good work. A large school population is strong evidence that our city is largely increasing in nu m- bers, and it will not belong before the small villages and hamlets within The teachers and citizens of Strat ford were very much astonished to learn last week that our pOpular and efficient school inspector had placed his resignation in the hands of the Board to take effect on Oct lst Mr. Stuart has been connected with the educationai interests of this city for over 18 years. and his removal from our midst is greatly deplored.

The awful railway accident at; Cal- edon with its cerrible results, came as a. great, shock to us, especially as we read name after name of some well-known neighboror acquaintance.

They Form an Interdenominational Association to Promote Evangelism. (Toronto News.) Eleven Eyangelists. representing a number of denominations, met at the home of Messrs.
