You are invited to call at the Middaugh House on W'ednes- day Oct. 10th. OUR readers will remember a case reported some time ago in which Geo. Mighton, of Bentinck. was alleged to have been implicated in the stealing of a steer from John Brown of Allan Park. The case was tried here twice being dismissed the first time by the Magistrates on account of insufficient evidence. It was again brought up when the accused was committed to stand trial at Owen Sound. Last week the matter was disposed of and : Mr. Mighton was aquitted, the new Ie‘ridence against him being of such a oontracdictory [character and to be wholly discounted and not considered. Mr. I. B. Lucas of Markdale was the defendant’s Council and put up a good fight in the interest of his client. A BOLD robbery took place here on Friday night last when Mr. Webster’s jewellery store was entered and about. a thousand dollars worth of goods stolen. Of the stolen property there were $700 worth of diamond rings, a portion of his goods that Mr. Webster used to take home with him every night until the night in question when he hid it in the store only to find next morning that he was a. severe loser. Every watch on the repair hoard was also carried off and there must have been thirty or forty of them. Entrance ww gainel by cutting or breaking a. C ‘ glass panel out of the back door which had to he reached by climbing steps to the height of four feet or so. Besides the. goods mentioned some valuable chains and other property had been carried away. A cheap ring was found on'the sidewalk in front of the store next morning. but the thieves are still at, large though efiorts are be- ing nude to capture them. It seems that no effort was made toget into the sale. Mr. \Vehster has been here only since last winter and keeps a. fine display of high class jewellery and diamonds.

WE have another instance of the value of advertising. Last week there was offered a reward of one dollar to any person returning a cigar case lost in town. Monday morning County Commissioner, James Allan. of Egre- mont, left it at this office and got the promised reward for the finder, Mrs. Archie Baird. The owner in town, here. was tickled half to death when he saw it, and without a word handed over the reward money. It pays to advertise in the CHRONICLE. THE new thresher made in the Foundry here by Mr. David Smith did its first work Monday at the farm of Messrs. Scarf Sons, and did excellent work we are told. There was some-i thing happened the cutting attache ment Tuesday which resulted in con- siderable damage and gave the work- men quite a fright when they saw the knives flying in different directions. A loose bolt or something of the sort was the cause, putting the cutter out of business. The balance of the stuff was threshed without cutting and the machine proved a great success as to capacity and quality of work done. The cutter is said to do fine work and y the blower is perfect.
