I... fiymeneal; A very pretty wedding was solomnized at the home of Mrs. Lois Hill, near Powles’ Corner, in Fenelon township, on August 2lst, when her youngest daughter, Ada Mac, was united in the holy bonds of matrimony to Mr. Harry Torrance, of Fenelon Falls, the ceremony being performed by the Rev. W. J. M. Gragg, of Fenelon Falls. Precisely at two o'clock the bride entered the draw- ing room on the arm of her brother, Mr. Walter Hill, to the strains of Lohengrin's wedding march, played by her nephew, Mr. Douglas Hill. The bride looked charming in a beautiful gown of white taifeta silk trinnned with. chiffon ruching. She was attended by her friend, Miss May Dancy, who also looked charming in a dress of old rose cashmere and white silk, with trimmings of ribbon and insertion. Miss Jean Hill made a very pretty little flower girl, dressed in white silk and carrying a' basket of white flowers. The groom was assisted by his brother, Mr. Joseph Torrance. After the ceremony, 21- party of sixty guests were ushered to a sumptuous tea which awaited them, after which the happy couple took their departure on the five o’clock train, amid showers of rice and old boots, to extend their wedâ€" ding tour to Toronto, Hamilton and Gordon Harbor. The bride's travelling suit was blue ladics‘ cloth, with white satin trimmings and hat to match. Numerous and costly presents mani- fested the high esteem in which the young couple are held by their many friends. Friends from Penetanguishene, Little Britain and Lindsay were present. Mr. and Mrs. ‘ Torrance will have in their journey through life the highest and best wishes of a host of friends. Personals. The Misses Curio, of Campbellford, are visiting at Mr. Martin Stillman's. Miss Jennie Quibell left on Saturday last to take in the Toronto Exhibition. Mr. W. H. Robertson, of the Peterbo- rough “Times,” was at the Falls over Sunday. Mrs. John C. Brandon went to Toronto last week to visit her daughter and will return to-day. Mr. Wm. B. Brandon left on Monday to spend a fortnight’s holiday at Owen Sound and Toronto. Miss Macniven and her brother Mr. James Macniven, of Cayuga, spent the past week with friends at the Falls. Mrs. Wm. Tompkins, of Cambray, has been at the Falls since Saturday, the guest of her sister, Mrs. (.l)r.) Gould. Mr. and Mrs. J. J. Townley left on Monday for Toronto, and before they re- turn, which will be about the. middle of next week, Mr. ’l‘ownlcy will take a business trip to the city of New York. Miss Lily Terrill returned on Thurs day of last week from a month's visit to relatives and friends at Colborne and Woollcr. She was accompanied by her friend, Miss Tuttle, of Colborno, who remained at the Falls until yesterday morning. Mr. 'l‘hos. West, who left about three , months ago for Vancouver, B. 0., came home on Monday. He says that Japan- ese are very numerous in Vancouver, and that, though active and industrious, the great majority of them are such lit- tle bits of fellows that it takes two or three of them to do as much heavy work as a full-sized white man.

Thes‘e insects have destroyed the out crop to a great exâ€" tent, and done more or less damage to all kinds of grain and roots. The many friends and acquaintances hero of Mr. John Richa'ds, of Lindsay, will be sorry to hear of his sad alliction. He went up to see his daughter, who is in the Sanitarium at Gravcnhurst and is nearly at death’s door ; and now the sad news has come that Mr. Richards has had a pa'uly-iic stroke, and that there is no hope of his recovery.
