G Blair, Minister of Railways and Canals, who is on a tour of inspection along the route of the T, V. C, passed throngh the Falls yes- terday about 11 a. in.

The steamers 0qu mnet,AIfce Ethel and Esturion were all here, each bringing its quota of visitors. A few residents of the Falls went with the party to Rosedale, and there would have been others if they had known to a certainty when to expect Mr. Blair; but as Reeve Ellis had received a tele- gram inviting him to meet the Minister at Peterborough on Wednesday even- ing, it was not thought likely that he would reach the Falls earlier than the following afternoon. firâ€"Fâ€"zzâ€"EE- The Deer Hunting law. The Globe of Thursday says :â€" “ Settlers in the northern townships of Ontario have always regarded the game and fish as important factors in securing their daily supply of neces- saries. They are not at all satisfied with game laws which are framed from the standpoint of the city men who take a few holidays to enjoy the sport of deer- hunting once a year. The settlers re- gard the requirement of a license to shoot the. two deer a year to which they are restricted with the same disfavor as they would regard the requirement cfu license to tap their maple trees, trap muskrats or plant potatoes. Exceptions are already made in regard to settlers in unorganized districts. There are many difficulties in the way of making an exception in favor of any class in other townships, but no 'doubt ways will be found to remove the existing causes ofdiscontent. It will be safest to err in favor of ’those who find, with all available sources of food and clothing, the supply none ten abundant.” Right you are, Globe, though only to a certain extent, for the settlers are not only “ not a all satisfied," but they are savagely diss tisfied, with the chosen. sicnl and oppressive “ amendments ” that have recently been made to the law relating to deer. The attempt to restrict hunters to two deer per season will be an utter failure unless the woods are literally full of spies; for it is almost impossible to enforce a law to which practically everybody is opposed; and it is not to be supposed that even a member of a party of “city men ” who happened to shoot the prescribed two deer the first or second day he got into the woods would go home at once, or hang up his rifle and lock quietly on while his companions were trying to secure their legal allowance of venison. People who go into the wilderness to shoot deer for sport are just as keen as those who go for profit; and as the absurd and exasperating obstacles now placed in their way will only result in the waste of good meat and the increase of perjury, these obstacles should be removod as soon as possible. and we believe they will be before the arrival of next hunting season. Thirty or forty years ago the woods of Ontario were full of wild pigeons, and there are none now; but you don’t see young menâ€"or old ones, either -â€"going around with tears in their eyes pining for pigeons; and when partridges and deer shall have become things of the past. as they will. sooner or later, there will be plenty of other things geod to eat and plenty of amusements besides shooting. We don’t. by any means, advocate the indiscrimi~ nate destruction of game, but we think it rather unreasonable that the present smut ruins, seen Potatoes, etc. We cata- Wheat.Scotch .or Fire 75 to so generation, who chance to live in a lognc only the hardicst and most popular Wheat, full. perbushel.... 75 76 game age. should be hampered by vex varieties that succeed in the coldest cli- Wheat,spring ” 73 75 “in,” 'restrictium for the benefit of n ‘ nuns.

R”â€" The hieâ€"w County Cohhcil. The Past says 2â€"- Mr. W. C. Switzer, warden of the county, has made the fol- lowing appointments nnder the County Councils Act, 1896, viz: Nominating officer for the First Division of the County of Victoria. Mr. Jesse B. Wel- don ; for the Second Division, Mr. Wal- ter F. O'Boyle; for the Third Division, Mr. R. J. Grandy; for the Fourth Di- vision, .Mr. Irvine Junkie: for the Fifth Division, Mr. ll. J. Lytle; for the Sixth Division, Mr. John A. An- dcrsoo. Each of the Divisions will elect two councillors, and the nominatiOuc will be on December let. A person cannot sit in the county council and also in the town or township council. will be elected as formerly, but. they will not sit in the county council. The act comes into force for the coming mu~ nicipal elections for the first time. And this year the county council shall have the power of naming the nominating officers. , Under the old system the number of county councillors elected throughout the province was about 1,400, and the new not reducing the number to 500 will save the farmers, it is estimated, about $25,000 a year. . .i- , Fire at Peterhorough. Last Sunday evening, a little before church time, the light of a great fire that preved to be in Peterhorough was seen distinctly here at the Falls, and the following account of the conflagra- tion was telegraphed to the Toronto pa- peas as soon as it was over: “Tonight about 5.30 o’clock fire broke out in Mr. J. R. Donnell's plun- ing mill, which is sitnated on Dickson's race-way, beside several other large buildings. On the south side stands the grist mill, which is being fitted up by the Consolidated Milling Company. and also Mr. G. W. Green's pump and windmill establishment; then, adjoining these on the north, are the Dickson lumber yards and saw mill. The Don- nell building was a large wooden one, and was soon wrapped in flames, which spread rapidly to the south, totally des- troying both the Donnell and Green buildings. There was a strong breeze blowing at the time, and the large sparks were carried across the river and set fire to a big pile of shingles and hardwood owned by the Dickson Com- pany, which at present are burning fu- riously. The firemen after a hard fight succeeded in saving the consolidated mill property and Dickson's saw mill, but the loss will be heavy, as there was a large quantityof shingles, hardwood and slabs consumed. At the present time it cannot be learned how much in. suranco was carried and what insurance companies are interested." A later report estimates the total loss at about $40,000. W County Christian Endeavor Notes. What is your Society doing for mis- sions? Various societies adopt various methods of giving; some two cents per week per member; others by periodical collections. The main thing is to get some method and push it. If your members give to the regular mission funds of the church so much the better, but see that thev are not neglecting that privilege. We must carry out the command, “ Go preach the gospel.” We must be more evangelical in our endeavor. M. Baer, in his great ad- dress at the Ottawa convention. brought out a good thought on the subject of display of results of endeavor work. He told of an old Scotch divine who, when he was a lad, was very much afraid of thunder, but as he grew to manhood he learned that it was the lightning which was to be feared. So in endeavor work. We want more lightning and less than. der; more devoted action. less boastful talk. Let us do more, talk less, and boost not at all, giving praise for all good results to Him who doeth all things well.â€"Com. m Kinmonnt. (Correspondence 0/ the Guzrlle.) The house of Mr. Wm.

Miss Mary Marshall is leaving for Toronto to attend Church's auto'voce school. ‘It is to be hoped that a course in vocal gymnastics will prove benc- ficial, for it. is the utter absence of all culture of the speaking voice that makes musical speech and cxpreseivo reading such rare qualities in after life. Miss Mary Wilson of this place and Mr. Robinson of Cambray commenced a course in the school of matrimony last week. To tell a skunk story is almost syn- onymous with a thief story, for they appear boon companions, according to acts. The subject of my plot showed every indication of a thief, for he made right for the cellar, when observed by Mrs. Brandon, who quickly gave the alarm. Will was soon on hand, and succeeded in defending the premises from the assaults of the enemy. This was not done without brave daring, as the night was dark, and consequently at careful manipulation of the gun was necessary before taking effect. Throe reports from an old-time breech-loador helped to intensify the perfume so do- sirahlc before retiring for a night's rest, and those of the occupants who failed to share in the croning’s enjoyment had no reason to grumble, for “ the sweet perfume upon the breeze was borne by every vernal trees." Next moi-aimr when they awoke from their sleepy lethj argy it required no forcible argument to convince the neighborhood that thieves had been around. Before des‘ patching the obnoxious intruder, howâ€" ever, considcrablc excitement prevailed, for the meeting folk were just return- ing, and some of them came running and proffered their assistance, little thinking, of course, how generous a thief had visited the spot, and how profusely he tried to supply the demand for musk. l’hewl I left them. Smell him bref! Mr. Charles McGrcgor is busy mov- ing to-day. He goes to a farm at or near Rosedale. He will be missed from this place, since he figured as one of our enterprising farmers. The girls, who have been regular attendants at school, will also be missed from among the school-circle of children, whose merits are too well known to require comment. Your correspondent was misinformed about the removal of brother Clark. He goes to the Falls instead of Kirk- field, which will tend to give the chil- dren educational advantages. They have always lived too far from school, when here, to attend regularly; They will now come in contact with the mas- ter minds of the Falls. Messrs.
