The prisoners, Gregg and Rumble, had been drinking and went to the Hall, and by their noise and unseemly con- duct disturbed and interrupted the proceed- ings. This ultimately led to a, general row, in which the stove pipes were knocked down and a general stampede through the windows followed, accompanied bythe yelling of men and the screamin of women and children. For sometime t e men eluded arrest, but nally they were caught and brought be- fore the olice authorites at Barrie and were sent up; or trial. They elected. 30 be Blim- marily tried by the County Judge and the trial came off on the 18th. _ . Rev. W.

He claimed that Ireland had not received the same conmderationat-the hands of the Imperial Government as England. and Scotland, and that she was entitled to Home `liule as `far as having a local parliament with `powers similar to that of Ontario. That amount of Home Rule, is all the Irish. people want. The rev. 'gentleman s speech was really the speech of the evening, and cone `tamed many pleasant reminiscences of `the land. of.St. Patrick, of O Connell, of "Burke, She1'1(lan; Urattan and other men whom lrislimen` everywhere delight to llO'.10l'.~ - 7 Land of our adoption- ' - R ' `Song-A--x - ilieszponse lay II. - Bird, | E` Couty Judge *s'(3.1:;1;l_:ai Court.

The ordinary weekly meetings of this So- ciety was held on Friday last. [After routine business _a motionwas made to censure the" Society reporters to the _ADVANL E and the Examiner for neglect of duty, `but was lost. The programme was very entertaining and instructive.

She said the first duett was good but mightsbe improved. ].t appeared to lack the proper Scotch accent. The other pieces ranged from fair to good and the club s chorns Was `excellent. There were "a good number of visitors present. Next. Friday there will be an open debate. Vsitors always welcome. 7 u 5 -..::j.......-.__..j- {miwf.;:?sI.'\\'. A. -Boysand J; E. `Bird gave Wine and Beer Licenses. - I { We notice that the Colliugw ood Town Council passed a resolution at a meeting on the 11th inst. to petition the Dominion gov- ernment to allow beer and wine licenses to be granted in Scott Act counties. The Not- tawasaga Township Council has also unani- mously` passed a similar resolution. We think our own Town Council should consider this] matter `also. Everybody knows that intoxicating drinks are as openly sold in this town, at the hotels, many of the shops and at ,certain privatehouses, as though there was no Scott Act. Under the Crooks Act, l during Saturday nights and Sundays, at all ' events, liquors were not openly sold, but now there is no restriction whatever. Something should be done to change this" unsatisfactory state of things for the (better. We therefore call the special attention of the Councilto the subject, and hope they will take some action in the premises at the earliest possible date. {- Barrie Literary Society Socials. During. the winter the members of `the Barrie Literary Society have by invitation of a number of its members been invited to spend a social evening. _The last of these was on Friday night at the residence of Mr. L. S. Sanders. The gathering was just what they have beenat other places, pleasant as social converse andvliterary -chich-chat can make them, `aided by music and oyster soup. This brain food partly accounts for the ex- cellence of the papers read, the piquancy of the criticisms, and the liveliness of the Society s debates. Whoever suggested these social evenings deserves` the thanks of the Society as Well as the gentlemen who give them. ' -'....j_......__ `V VI!

It is over five feet in length when in the attitude it often assumes in the woods. When standing on its hind feet its fore feet would touch the shoulders of an ordinary sized man amd his face would-be on the level with his. I_t would form a verv formidable antagonist in close quarters. It was caught in a trap and when the trapper approached the trap it made a spring for him. _ It was despatched by shooting it with arie, the ball entering" the mouth and going out at the left shoulder. Mr. Jackson, hotel keeper of Sundridge, brought the animal to town and it is now the property of `Vlr. Brown of A the Queen s Hotel, who has had it stuffed and it will I ; shortly form a natural history ornament of I that populax hostel-`y. ` ` Curran vs. Ingram and Ciark--This is a case which caused a good dual of amusement m Court.

This was a. case of crim. con., in which Cooper, the plaintiff, sued Dr. Shaw, the defendant, for $5,000 damages for the loss of the society of his-wife owing to the alleged adultery of the defendant with her.` The case excited the `greatest interest and the court room was packed to its utmost capacity. As the case progressed it was easily seen ` that the plainti really had no case. Much of the evidence was not fit for publication Judge Armour administered a most scathing rebuke to Cooper for the part he had played in this "disreputable matter and clearly showed the inconsistency and improbabihty of his evidence and showing that the char. acter of Mrs.` Cooper was entirely vindicated even by pla.intiEi"s own testimony. The address of Mr. Mahalfy, '.\I1`s. Coope: s coun- sel, was admired by everyone who heard it. It was indeed a brilliant vindication of his client s chastity and integrity of character The maj irity of defendant s witnesses were ` not examined, the judge deeming it uu. necessary.

' Yours, etc., The Admission of Correspondence Does. Not Necessarily Imply that We Hold the Opinions of the Writer. _The following letters addressed to the Editor of THE NOR'l`lIEi-`.N ADV.~\.\'('I-J, have ` Jeen received tor publication : Woman's Rights. SIR,-111 your issue of last week I noticed a letter ovei the nom de plume of Augusta in which some lady airs her views on Wo- man s Rights. Without attempting to dis- cuss the Whole of her letter, I will simply bind myself to the passage which particularly attracted my attention. She says, ``It has been proved that in our colleges and univer- sities woman is quite the equal of the proud lord of creation in the attainment of scholarship. Now, this pet assertion of a certain class of sentimentalists. lacks one needful essential and that is truth. Of course, if it only meant that girls are equal to boys in early years, there is some ground for this assertion, as it is well known that girls develop taster than boys, and up to twelve years, or thereabouts, they are leaders lii their classes at school. But if "Augusta" means that women are equal to men intei lectually, after they haveattained their ma- jority, or in middle age, she is quite Wl`O!1g_,. For instance, if a list were prepared of the men and another of the women most dis- tinguished in poetry, painting, sculpture, science 01 philosophy, each containing only a dozen names. these two lists could support no comparison. But it might be said that women do not receive the same education as men. This is false. l)o not female music- ians, for example, receive exactly the same instruction as males in conservatories, etc. '3 Therefore. how does it happen that altliouul. they are iucomnarably more female than male musicians, that women furnish the best exccutioiiists but no coiiiposcrs. What i have said of music, is applicable to painting. and even to cookery." How does it liappei; that all the men who deyotc themselves in this latter art are good cooks, while ainong, the tlioiisauds of women who exercise the profession of cook they are so few cord." blvus.
