FlNlil).â€"-The three men who were caught by Constable Jones setting nets and shooting partridge near the forks in Burnt River were tried on Friday last before Captain Hunter, Game Warden, of Belleville. One of the men was fined $25 for fishing, and the other $20 for shooting, with costs inboth cases. The third man was discharged. Good sub- stantial fines like these, and the evident determination of the authorities to keep a keen lookout for offenders, ought to serve as a warning to others who may be tempted to break the laws respec- tive fish and game. HUNTING.â€"Messrs. Thos. Robson, Job. Palmer, A. Teirs, M. H. McCallum, Chas. Edwards, J. Jones, M. W. Brandon, Thos. Archer, M. Haskell, Geo. Burley, E. Beteau and Geo.

Johnston is filling his position as constable here during his absence. Messrs. Calder and Bcteau went as guides to Mr. Berry and Mr. Rodgers, of Philadelphia, the lat- ter of whom spent a few weeks fishing in this vicinity last summer. BAPTIST Tumâ€"Despite the rather un- favorable weather, a good crowd turned out to the fowl supper and lecture at the Baptist Church on Wednesday even- ing. The supper was fully up to the high standard of excellence of former years. Rev. J. R. Webb, B. A., of Peter- boro. gave a very interesting lecture on “Golden Rooms in Wooden Houses.” During the evening Mrs. McArthur, Mrs. Arnold, Dr. Graham and Mr. James Graham sang a quartette, and Mrs. tributcd solos in their usual acceptable style. The proceeds ammounted to $121. Dam. AND DREDGE Gonn.~’-Tlie drill and dredge which have been taking rock out of the channel during the summer, took their departure for Lakefield on Monday. The channel has been deepen- ed to nine feet for a. considerable dis- tance, but the work has not been completed, and will be resumed next season. A large amount of rock has been removed, the most of it being piled in a strip extending out into the lake, with a cement pier at the end, upon which it is proposed to build a light house. Stone has also been piled be- tween the piers in the middle of the river. with the object of breaking the current and making it easier for vessels to navigate the channel.

Mr. Pilcher addressed the teachers of the Minden’and Haliburton schools on Sunday and M anday, and returned to Toronto this (Tuesday) morning. Old friends and acquaintances of Mr. Archie Brandon, of North Bay, formerly agent for the G. T. R. here, were shocked to hear of his death on Sunday morning from pneumonia, after only two days' illness. Sincere sympathy is felt for Mrs. Brandon, whoxpassed through Kilimount on Monday on her way to Gelert with the body of her husband. Mr. Brandon was buried this ('l‘uesday) afternoon at Ge- lort with Masonic honors, several per- sons going up from Kinmount to attend the funeral. Rev.

H. A. Ward claimed the petition had not the requisite number of names, and produced an allidavit from a 13- year-old girl who had signed five names to the petition without permission. The council decided to defer the mat- committee of the council, with the solicitor for the local oplion promoters, and the anti-optionists, will go over the petition and report at next meeting. 0»â€"â€"- Port Hope Guide.:â€"â€"Wheu you come to think of it, Canadians do appear to have a queer way of observing Thanks- giving day. The proclamation sets forth that it is to be a day of thanks- giving. TomLDick and Harry celebrate it, each in his own way, but neither one does much in the way of giving thanks. At least one Belleville minister, Rev. A. M. Hubly, deplored this fact on Sun- day last. Canadians, he said, seemed now to think that Thanksgiving day was more for sport than the singing of praises. ' The good old custom of giving thanks was dying out. This fact be de- plored, and declared that a continuance of temporal blessings could hardly be. looked for. Certainly the name Thanks, giving day nowadays seems a misnomer. If it is to be Canada's annual footracing, football and sham fight day, why not call it by some other name ?
