We would warn our readers to be on the lookout for Strait Settiement coins. They are being circulated somewhat freely in some parts of the country, and are almost worthless, Business men, ** who see them coming " refuse to take them at any figure. The writâ€" er had a half dollar piece of this monrnâ€" ey in his possession recently, and after failing to get it exchanged at any price in a dozen places, a cigar dealer took it for 25 cents. Not long ago the balfâ€"dollar coin was valued at 35 or 40 cents, but now it is not wantâ€" ed on any consideration.â€"Commercial MorE® â€" ADvENTURES.â€"The other evening a railway engine drawing a heavy load otf cement from Durham couldn‘t climb the grade which is awbout half a mile south of the village and had to back up to the station here and sideâ€"track half the carsâ€"a yery common occurrence. Three members of "jigger " fame happened to be there and thought the engine would only go to Mt Forest with half the cars then come back for the other half. They decided to have a ride and managed to hide away between cars without being seen. But. Presto ! the train didn‘t stop until it reached Palmerston ! Now, it Seaman rather funny that none of them liked the idea of travelling country roads and crossing an Orchard, although one of them was a good Walker, They found the engineer and told him their tale of woe and the kindâ€"hearted felâ€" low did " pilot" thein home.â€"Leader.

The Durhams are greatly strengthened ard expect a winning team this seaâ€" son. Townspeople can contribute in large measure to this end by at least patronizing the games, and thus asâ€" sist in swelling the finances of the club, A keenly contested match is assured . The day‘s sports conclude with anâ€" other of the Durham Dramatic Club‘s popular comedy concerts in the hall in the evening also under the ausâ€" pices of the Lacrosse Club. **She Stoops to Conquer" is the play.

At Durbham in the afternoon Miss Shuttleworth will give ‘"Evenings at the Homestead "} Mrs, Bates, "Social Rights and Duties of Farmers." All invited to attend and take part in the discussions, Of late years Durham has never been the scene of any special Victoria Day Celebration, but this year, the lacrosse Club kave taken the day in hand and are determined to make it a notabie one. There will be no neâ€" cessity for town crowds to go elseâ€" where to witness a day‘s sportâ€"but the afternoon‘s attractions should draw large numbers from the country and surrounding towns. This season bids fair to beat anyâ€" thing yet accomplished in the manuâ€" factare of cement at our big mill, The cutput for April this year was 10,000 barrels ahead of April 1905, though in operation for the same number of days. The daily output :s 1100 to 1200 barrels a day and Manager McGrane has hopes of even exceeding that. President McWilliams informed us last week the dredge was moved to a part of the lake which was reported in 1905 to be of no commercial value. The move,. no doubt, was accompaniâ€" ed by some fear that the results might 1 be disconraging, but instead of that when the tests came to be applied and output measured, there was found to be little yariation, for one day there was 1110 barrels made and the next 1120 even though there was over 10 per cent of organic matter. This is a notable discovery and justifies the reâ€" port of Mr Wouds, the expert, that * it was the most uniform deposit he ever saw." It also justifiee the changes made in the " wet end " of the mill and reflects credit at the same time on Manager McGrane and Pres. McWilliams, who are confident we have the best mill in the world. Durham on the 24th It is most gratifying to be assured that the largely increased output is being made at no sacrifice of quality for the good name of the past is being still deserved judging by the satisâ€" faction expressed by users. Delay by the railway in forwarding coal caused some anxiety a few weeks ago, but that difficulty has also been got over. By present appearances a good dividend will be paid this year, perhaps before the snow flies. Stock is now quoted at 44 with holdâ€" ers asking 50 at which price sales have been made. Anyone wishing to buy should lose no time as without doubt the stock will soar yet higher, eepeciâ€" ally as men competent to judge estiâ€" mate that under present conditions there is material to last 15 to 20 years yet. We are not writing this as a boom article for either love or money, but solely because we believe the situation warrants it, shareholders want to know, and It won‘t hurt the ‘public to know also.

Mr Rowe takes possession at once and needs no introduction or recommendation to Durham people. Grey M. P. P.‘s Pray Barur.â€"The Eastern League championship season opened at Toronto on Monday and the Toronto club managed to win anâ€" other game. As a prelude to and drawing card for the opening game, a one innings exhibition was arrangâ€" ed between the City Hall officials of Teronto, including the mayor, and a nine picked from the Ontario Legisâ€" lature, which was won by the City Hall, 1â€"0. _ We never imagined our own M.P. P., Dr Jamieson, was a baseball player, nor A. G. McKay, of Owen Sound, either, but both were fast enough to catch a place on the picked nine from the Legislat«re, the Dr covering right field and Mr Macâ€" Kay, 3rd base. We regret to have to use this word in connection with our town but there is no help forit in the case we are about to mention. The officials of the Agricultural Society inform us that it costs them from $30 to $40 every year to repair the effects of wilful damage to showâ€"room and other property. For instance to save windows. strong shutters were put on some years ago and now it is found this has put the boys tothe trouble of firing shot at them to break the glass, for broken apparently. it must be to satisfy the wanton spirit of destruction that seems too prevalent among thefyouth of our town. â€" Even locks are broken and the coops in the poultriy house have been wrecked also. This state of affairs must not be allowed to continue. . While every moral force, church, school and family should inculcate a hatred of such practices, there is room for indiyiduals to act also, and moral suasion provâ€" ing unavailing, the restraints and reâ€" sources of the law should be employed to meet and put down the evil. Waterworks are being installed into the G. 1. R. water tank, south of the station. Such practices give occasion for heart searching by every man and magistrate in town to ascertain if there is not some producing cause above the average and in addition to human depravity to account for the wanton spirit that is complained of. Fixnarrâ€"MoCoRrmack. A very quiet but pretty wedding took place at the home of Mr and Mrs n,. Finger, April 25, at 8 o‘clock in the evening, when Eva Emma. the second eldest daughter, was married to Anâ€" gus G. McCormack, Manager of the Lake City Rink Company. The wedâ€" ding was private, only the members of the family being present. Rev 8. C. Murray officiated. The bride was given away by her father and looked very pretty in a beautiful gown of lilac moire silk, trimmed with whole silk applique. Her only ornament the groom‘s gift a crescent of pearls, the bridesmaid, Miss Quimby, of New London, was prettily gowned in brown silk touched with white and wearing a set of gold buttons set with amethysts, the gift of the groom. Mr Oscar Finger attended the groom. _ After the cereâ€" mony a dainty supper was served from a beautiful decorated table done in pink and white carnations. Mrand Mrs McCormack will leave next Monday for the west, where they intend to make their home. The young couple, who were so well and favorably known, received many gifts from a host of admirers and well wishers, Among the many gifts was a pretty gold lined spoon from the members of the Thistle Hockey Club, Port Arthurites will regret the departure of those two very popular young people from their midst but the best of good wishes follow them to their distant houme.â€"Port Arthur Times Journal.
