While dusting round the switch board at the Cement works his arm came in conâ€" tact with the wires and a charge of 24000 volts left its mark by a severe burn. The fact that he was standing on a chair and not nearer the earth probably saved his life. It will throw him off duty for a few weeks, but we hope will leave no permanâ€" ent injury. Loox Our ror Iupostors. â€" We, heard a story this week hard to believe, [ and we cannot vouch for its truth but It is possible. _ Two strangers with an offiâ€" | cial air about them, entered a farmer‘s home and accepted an invitation to have‘ a meal. â€" There was meat on the table, ‘ plenty sugar and the usually generous piles of bread. _ When the meal was over | judge of the surprise of the hosts to be informed that they were violating the ! law, that it was a meatless day, they were | too lavish with bread, &c. and the fme' was $200!

Shoulder high they carried him into and out of the Presbyterian church, and from hearse to graveside, and the services were of no perfunctory character, â€" Privately they boreâ€"testimony to the sorrow they felt at his loss, he had won their hearts by quali. ties we referred to last week. Laid to Rest, From the pulpit, on invitation of M; Whaley, Captain â€"â€"â€"â€" gaye an address lauding the character of deceased and exâ€" plaining the manner of the accident which might he said have happened to anyone and was due to no bad judgment. Not 25 per cent of the candidates, he said made good but Foster was above the average, wasagood student, knew maâ€" chines thoroughly, was helpful to others and had an absolutely clean record. Rev. Mr Whaley‘s topic was ‘"ministerâ€" spirits," and even in such deaths there was something to inspire us. He pointed out that every aviator was a volunteer, they should remember they were not alone and his figurative reference to heavâ€" enly cohorts was well carried out. The church was crowded to th¢ dcor The choir had beautiful and impressive music and the whole service was beautiâ€" fully in keeping with the occasion. Rev. Mr Dymond was on the platform and assisted in the service. The offering of flowers was extraordinâ€" ary requiring a special car to convey them .

Mcintosh, Dornoch heard with regret that another of her esteemed citiâ€" zens, Mr Alexander McIntosh, a nephew, had passed away on the 21st June. Mr MciIntosh, a prosperous, progressive and respected farmer, had been putting up a brave fight against the inroads of a canâ€" cerous affection of the face for over a year. Born at Dornoch 47 years ago, he has ever keen a resident. â€" Nearly twenty years ago he was wedded to Miss Lizzie, daughter of the late Robt. and Mrs Darâ€" gavel, who with four sons and one daughâ€" ter, survives him.

Ho‘stein and Fairbairn will Continue to pull together. Presbytery met in Mt. Forest on Tuesâ€" day and had some important business. The call to Rev. T. W. Mills of Dornoch and Rocky Saugeen was considered and accepted by the Presbytery and he will be inducted into the charge of Drayton on the 4th July next. For some time so virile is the Holstein | Presbyterian body, they have been thinkâ€" i ing of assuming the whole_cost and servâ€" ices of their minister. ‘This of course would put their present associate congreâ€" gation of Fairbairn out in the cold. Howâ€" ever Fairbairn voted so unanimously against separation (they have been paired for about 50 years) that the union is to continue in the meantime. Harriston is not happy. There are two Presbyterian congregations there and one recently became vacant. â€" This suggested to some of the members the posu'bm of having a fusion made of the two bodies, and the other minister, to smooth the path, resigned also. However there are some strong opponents of union and the differences instead of being _ smoothed away may be accentuated. _ Presbytery in the meantime was not able to bring Saugecn Presbytery Dr. D.
