From his home in Rockton last Tuesday Was buried all that was mor- tal of David Bell. His life may well point a moral and adorn a tale. Gift- ed as lie was with splendid business side world. ‘ I went to school with him and knew him well, and 1 know he was re- peatedly tempted ‘to leave his village and enter into the concerns of great cities and vast corporations. He would have distinguished himself in any great business, and might have been a mag- nate, a'Napoleon of finance, a prince of industry; but he preferred to live his life in his native fields and in his home hamlet. Hiswas a useful life and he acquired a competence. This 'is the lesson taught by his busy and useful life: That all the op- portunities are not stored in the teem- ing Babylons and the obscene Gomor-. rahs of the land. There are plenty of opportunities in the farms and villages and bright little towns which have been drained of all their bright young men. No wonder the towns are slow â€"â€"-â€"no wonder the farms are half tilled and weedy, when only the culls are left to furnish the brains and muscle. Are you a bright young fellow? Do you wish to do splendid things? Of course you do ; but, alas! you think they can only be done in Toronto or Winnipeg", Hamilton or Montreal, Re- gina,- Calgary or Vancouver. It is not so much your fault, for you have been educated that way. You complain that your mum is a little place. Make it bigger if you want vastness. You say it is slow. Inject some life into it. Man alive, if you go away, too, the town will go from bad to worse. It ’s great men that make great towns. Show me a bright, sparkling Earn, an‘. I know beforehand that there are great men in it. Every dead to rn is full of dead people. It doesn’t take many smart men to make a town ,huai. Two or three will wake it up, ‘Go into Smith’s Falls, Berlin, VVel- .land, Patel-borough,- jar'ric, Windsor, :Oshawa', and you will find that these places owe their prosperity to two or three‘ them Who" hadfaith and energy, 'and realized that they 'had not to go ______â€"â€"â€"-â€"â€" Thinks dredge Left Tod Soon. The Lindsay” Post says} _ The dredge, the" governments scan and all, the paraphernalia connected here le‘ftLilidsay this morning in tow of the “ Bob Hall ” for Balsover where they will be put to work. Steamboat men and all those who have to pass up and down tlfe river are very ». indignant as‘ they say Elie bed of the Scugog has been left in Very bad shape, it will soon be impossible to navigate. Those who go up and down regularly state that ridges of rock have been left all over the channel, which is now posi- tively dangerous. The dredge is leaving at the very time of year when it should be easiest and quickest to clear the channel on account of low water and when naviga- tion here has lessened sufliciently not to interfere with the work. It goes to a part of the Trent. Valley Canal where the water is particularly high and has been so all year. With the water all being held back at Fenolon Falls by the new cofi'cr dam, and almost no water being held back at Bobcaygeon by the useless old look, Sturgeon Lake is bound to fare badly and some steamer will yet come to grief on the rocks where the dredge left ofi work in the Scugog. a-.â€" Death of Daniel Dugjm. The death occurred on Monday of Daniel Duggan, of Verulam, at St. Mich- ael's Hospital, Toronto. Mr. Duggan had one of his legs broken last winter by a full, and on account of a previous injury the leg did nothcal properly, and a few weeks ago he was taken to the host-it'll. After some days treatment amptation was considered necessary, but. the patient passed away while under the influence of’the (‘lllJl‘Jl‘pl'llL long black hair streaked with gray, Pany further to‘find their opportunity. . with deepening the river channel . and if the water continues to go down ' morning he was up early, had breakfast, ' and talked a good deal of his success in the West, where he said he owned a large ranch. About 10.30 he went to the Standard Bank, presented his credentials and his cheque for $2500 and said he was buying horses to take West. He drew . 2,000, left $500 on deposit and soon a’ terwards wont to the G. T. R. station and it is supposed took the train north. He is described as about 5 feet 9 inches in height, weighing 150 lbs.. wore a gray suit and a soft gray hat, and had a black mustache and rather supposed to be a wig. It has later developed that Ray drew between $2,000 and 33.000 each from banks at Ingersoll, Woodstock, Hamil- ton and Brantford, but these banks kept the matter quiet, and Bay was able to work his game on others later. C lief Chilton of Lindsay visited Cob- ocouk, Burnt River and other points north on Monday, but so far as known without success. .-. Got Coat Back. \Vhen Mr. Thos. Robson got off the train to visit friends at Calgary on the way home from his trip to the West, he forgot his overcoat. As soon as he missed it a telegrram was sent to lVin- nipeg, but when he arrived at that city there was no trace of the coat. Mr. Robson came on to Lindsay, and notified Mr. T. C. Matchett, C. P. R. agent, who got to work and in a few days Mr. Rob- son received the- overcoat safe and sound, thanks to Mr. Matchett's prompt- ness and courtesy in instituting an im- mediate seareh for the lost garment. â€"-â€"â€"-.â€"â€"o o oâ€"-â€"- Bethered by Tramps. ~Residents between \Vestwood and Norwood have been bothered some of late by transient hoboes, and last Friday a. particularly ueg looking customer made his appearance, hanging around various homes. Constable Dickson was sent for. at Mr. Ed. English’s, where the man then was, and made the arrest after a spirited scrap.in which the constable had to use all his scrapping ability, as the man was almost a giant, Finally the intruder made a. vicious kick, pver- balancing himself, and his feet being pulled from under him he was promptl y handeufied and taken to Norwood. â€" Hastings Star. 0* Verulam Council.
