A Cayuga, Ont., despatch: The barns and _ outbuildings of Patrick Fagan, a farmer in the Township of Onsida,. were destroyed by fire this morning. Everyâ€" thing was lost, but no horses or cattle hbad yet been stabled. The loss is a beavy one for Mr. Fagan. An eyeâ€"witness of _ the _ proceedings says the first intimation of anything abnormal in the women‘s gallery | was the exclamation: _ "There!" in the familiar note of triumph females put in that word when they have achieved their desire, _ The mere utterance . of a word aloud being a breach of priviâ€" lege, atterdants for the purpose of orâ€" a word aloud being a breach of priviâ€" lege, atterdants for the purpose of orâ€" dering her to leave the House. _ She refused, and an effort to lead her out instantly developed into a struggle, in the midst of which the offender, pushâ€" ing her face close to the grating, shriekâ€" (d: "We have listened too long." _ A renewed scuffle cut short the remaindâ€" er of the sentence, Simultaneously a fresh movement began at â€" the _ other end of the gallery. "Votes for women!" exclaimed a thin, piping voice, and through the grille came a large poster imprinted with the deâ€" mand for votes. It was now seen that the women were chained to the iron screen which encloses the front of the gallery. The attendants could not disâ€" lodge the women, and above the noise of the tussle came little squeals from the Suffragettes and other women, the latâ€" ter‘s feminine syimpathies leading them to exelaim: "Oh, don‘t hart her!" and similar appeals. They had hardly gone when a youth in the strangers‘ gallery roared out,. and showered hand bills on the floor of the House. _ The attendants made short work of the eallow champion‘s struggles, and he was hustled out with little ceremony or tenderness. _ A litâ€" tle later another man tried the same tactics, and he shared the same fate. Meanwhile, the woimen‘s chains had been filed off in the corridor, and they were expelied from the building. They were not arrested, as their acts were not illegal. FOX, Noon there came the sound of ripâ€" ping, and with a crash a section of the _ grille fell beside Miss Matters. One attendant picked up the iron work, two took the woman, and the procession left the gallery, _ Then i was Miss Fox‘s turn. _A section of the grille was ‘torn out, as before, "Hurrah!" shrilled Miss Fox. _ "Hurâ€" rah, votes for women!t" And she, too, was marched out. Meanwhile Miss Fox, at one end of the gallery, and Miss Matters, at the other, as they got their breath, let off little speeches. "We have listened behind this grille too long," squeaked one. "Yes," echoed the other. _ "We have "We demand from this soâ€"called Tib eral, but really illiberal, Government,‘ squeaked Miss .\Intrtt-l‘srfrym one side "Yes," echoed the other, _ "We have listened too long to the illogical utter ances of men who know nothing about it." for assault."

Mr. Gross says that »ach lot could be provided with seaus, dressâ€" ing rooms, a diamond, backstops and a seoreboard for less than $600.
