Plbasant Trip. â€" The Eoyal Templars excursicm last week to Toronto was a very pleasant and en- joyable afljair the weather was delight- ful and all nature appears at its best this season of the year. There was not a large turnout, doubtless owing to the excursion rates to Toronto having been raised. When people have business, the rates are satis- factory, but it is another thing to go solely for pleasure at such rates. We have been assured however that the fare tor excursions will not be reduced this reason. More New Ttpe. â€" We have just added new type and material to oar already large and well equipped office, and, notwithstanding the general satis- faction which we have given our nvin- erous customers in the quality of work turned out and dispatoh in filling orders, we are now in a better position than evet to execiite pnnting in all its branches that will compare with the best city work. It is not necessary to go from home to secure Leetter Heads padded, or Envelopes printed or any such iobs which some in onr midst are wont to do. We will do. them as cheap and as well 'and besides this, if you have an ounce of enterprise about you, you would spurn the idea of send- ing to Toronto and elsewhere fsr what you can have done at home. We are pleased to know there are very few who will patronize a foreign town in preference to home, yet there afe a few, and if we would ali do likewise, where would our village be with all its dnvenieuees. We "would say, stand out of your ow^' lighi lud stmport .. S/^iSJS^i; -i.5?/l 't^«^6 I 'â- . Mr. Edward Lomas, a prosperous ' farmer 8^ miles out of Markdale, was approached recently for a subscription to the brass band, then being organ- ized, when he offered them $5 if they would come out and play a tune at his place. On Friday evening last the band drove out and played several popular pieces to the great satistaction of Mr. Lomas and bis neighbors. Mr. L. treated the boys in a very hospi- table manner and frankly paid the V. Prof. Johnson, who arrived in town and stopping at the Bevere House, is doing a Uiriving busmess in Phre- nology. The Prof, is also noted as being possessed of curmg propensities through faith. It is openly admitted that he has been very successful with quite a number of cases. Bheumatism and indigestion speedily cured. Bun- ning sores cured by rubbing over few times with the naked hand. He is apparently busy night and day. He makes no charges. He will be leaving here in a few days. MiBAGULous Escape. â€" While Mr. Wm. Brown ci this village was driving home frcm the garden party at Mr. Thos. Murray's on Tuesday night, with his wife, Mrs. Trimble and Miss Morrow in the carriage, the horse stopped suddenly on Orr's hill and backed down when the buggy dropped over the embankment, turning the whole load over with passengers fast under the buggy. Miss Morrow was carried to the house of Mr. Orr in an unconscious state, but was not seri- ously injured more than a spra,ined rist, the other ladies escaped with a severe shaking up and considerable excitement. Mr. Brown and the horse also escaped injury. On Monday evening last a garden party was given by the^. members of the Bible Army at the Glenelg Agri- cultural Hall, at present used by the above society as their barracks. Al- though the evening was very cold, having been inclement all day, a good- ly number were present. The brass band was engaged and rendered some pieces very nicely, after which a vote ot thanks was tendered the band for their kind assistance during the even- ing. A very sociable and enjoyable time was spent by all, most of whom entered into the various games which generally attend such occasions. The eatables, which were provided by the ladies, were abundantly served up and were of a very toothsome nature. The proceeds we beUeve amounted to $17. Sbbious Accident. â€" On Friday Morning last W. J. Nobis, a youug man of this place, got his leg broken in the following manner. He has been hauling lumber from Ford and Stinson's saw mill, 11th line Euphra- sia, to Markdale Station and on the above occasion he had finished puttius: on his load (about 1,000 feet of green birch) and was standing beside the wagon when the horses started before he was quit« ready he attempted to get hold of the lines which were among his feet and tripped hita, he then stepped on a green root and slipped falling and the hind wheel passed over his leg breaking it above the ankle and bruising the leg badly. Dr. Carter was sent for and dressed the limb. Mr. Ford kindly constrain- ed him to remain at his place where he is doing as well as can be expected. Good Old Age. â€" Mr. John Whitby of Arteinesia has a mare which has entered upon her 81st year, and is sound iu wind and limb and withait » blemish. We had the pleasure of a carriage ride after her on Saturday last and was surprised at the activity and high life she still possesses, in fact Mr..^W^tby was obliged to leave the carriage and lead her pael. the radway and into the village, she being so skittish. Mr. W. spaaks of this ani- mal as one without u fault (accept of course her age). He always owned her, and to his knomledge she never received 80 strokes of the whip. She is^tting quite de«rf/yet is likely to live many years/ btit is' allowed to re- tire from active service. He had her phot^aphed on Saturday by Hamil- ton, the artist.
