RaTEks Go Ur.â€"At a meeting of the Grand Lodge, A. O U,. W. held last week, it was settled finally that the rates shoulé go up. This was done last year, but owing to someillegality they were not allowed to be put in force. The new rates on old members will be doubled, in some cases more: which will mean in imany eases * get out " and sacriflce the hopes that have for years been cherished of leaving something for loved ores. im Wl Bomme»BRumimâ€"A rather unique inâ€" cident of last Friday‘s storm is creditâ€" ed as happeniug to a son of Mr Arch. Wilson, of Aberdeen. The barn doors had been blown off and he told his son to sit on one while he went for the hammer to replace it. However the wind lifted door and boy, and he thus experienced an aerial sail, as they were wafted and landed safely in an adjoining fleld ! Next ! ‘/-â€"-’j Rev. Jas. Farqubarson, D.

The remains of the late Thos. Swal low did not arvrive till noon train, 0. P R. Thursday, but this still gave time: to carry out the arrangements made . and after resting a while at the underâ€" taking parlors of Mr. A. Bell they were conveyed to the Baptist chureb, which was almost filled with a comâ€" pany of old friends and mourners met to pay the last tribute of respect, Rev,. â€" Mr. â€" McCaustand, â€" deceased‘s former pastor, conducted an appropri® ate and impressive senyice after which the vremains were taken in charge by hbis brethreu of the I. O. Foresters and laid to rest in Durham cemetery beside his parents. His brother Will accompanied the imourning widow on the lonely journey home and from them it was learned that deceased had died from an acute attack of pnenmonia, after about two weeks illness, Many viewed the pale form in the casket easily recognizing the wellâ€"known features not much wasted. His other brother Nat, was not able to come but the three sisters, who were warmly attached to him accompanied the remains from Toâ€" ronto, and met many old friends, Messrs Donaldson and Langley, of T ronto â€" husbands respectiyely â€" of Einma and Mabel were also present, Mr. Wickson of Ingersoll, husband of Nellie was not able to be present.

BRIGHAM, Auctioneer. The Late Thos. Swallow Friday, April 4, 1913 Violent Windâ€"storm Many Barns Unroocied and other Damage Good Friday of 1913 will long be re* membered as the day of the greatest windstorm this district ever experienced. And not thisdistrict slone but the wHOr continent seems to have been in aerial convulsion. _ From 60 to 100 fatalities occurred in the States and a few in Canada and in the wide area we have named the damage will run into the millions. Compared with some ether towns Durham has come out of the storm well. None of our big stacks have gone and no industry has been pumt..of business. The tmetal roof of G. and J.® McKechnie‘s big store had presented an opening to the southwest wind which took the advantage and made a wreck of the whole, necessitating a new LQQA/ and at once. »With great energy the firm got a bunch of men on Saturday and succeeded before night in cleaning the wreckage and getting the bulk of a new roof on. 1914, only 75 cents. Mr A. S$. Hunter‘s windmill, early in the gale gave way and now lies a Vwrcck over the roof. ;‘The board sidewalk over the ravine on the Durham Road was lifted bodily and swung unto the road way for 6 or 7 feet. wtmeeiity,. One of the four pinnacles on the Eng* lish church steeple was taken off, but more serious damage was done by a falling chimney which crashed through the roof just above where the choir sits-‘ Service on Sunday last was held in the/ basement...‘The front was torn out of the st?)fi:f(;sc on D. B. McFarlane‘s lot near by and strangely the roof did not go. & The south chimney of the New Car)\ negie Library snapped off at the roof and falling its entire longth on the roof smashed the slates. > 0 Mr Hahn‘s windmill was put out of business and just in time the roof of the big stable was noticed going and steps were taken to secure it. _ Expensive plate glass windows were broken in MacFarlane‘s Drug Store and John Rose‘s provision shop. E. A. Rowe also had windows broken. " The tannery bell is now silent for the little house it swung in was blown down, _ More than one shed or outbuilding was demolished and fences suffered of course. Two trees in front of Mr Hay‘s resiâ€" dence, old landmarks in a way, are badly wrecked. A chimney on the schoolhouse, for long more ornamentâ€" al than useful was also brought fow. Tho clectric lights were out for the night and telephone and telegragh service demoralized for a time.. Causes Heavy Loss In the country surrounding Durham are many evidences of the big storm in roofless barns and other buildings. . In the country covered byy/Dr. Smith of Dornoch, he estimates at least 50 barns down or wrecked. _ The south wall of Knox church, Normanby is reported down and other injuries to the building. Mr J. McQueen found 9 barns wrecked between Dundalk and Hopeville and at the latter place the second story of : Harry Sterne‘s cement block store was blown away, blocks and all. ~ East of the town on the 2nd con. E G R. of Glenelg, thedamage was heavy, the following having barns either unâ€" roofed or injured ; Thos. MeGirr, H. Lawrence, Jas McGirr, Jas Mattnews, Will Lawrence, Robt Lindsay, Adam Weir, Wm Weir, W J McFarlane, Geo. Aljoe(2), Robt McFadden, John Collies, Mrs Robt Bell. «um Rail fences are of course sent broadâ€" cast; one report has it that there is not a rail fence between Durham and Owen Sound intact. The great brick chimney of the brush works at Port Elgin fell, killing a man named Duff instantly. _ He had been warned of his danger but took one chance too many. _ Hamilton suffered most severely of all the cities, The Krug works of Chesley are injured and stacks are reported down there, at Mt. Forest and elsewhere. The spire of a church in Fergus was carried away and a Factory wall in Owen Sound is reported crashed in entailing a loss in all for the County town of about half a million dollars. The gale had its origin in the South Western States where it was of tor: nado proportions, causing much loss of life. Two days later an even fiercer gale developed, more destructive of life than the first, especially tearing down the city of Omaha after the style of Regina a year ago, eausing a loss of life of hundreds, some say perhaps a thousand. Our mailing sheet has been correc® ed to date and we would urge all those who have not renewed to attend to the matter at once, _ *"Dec 2" does not mean 2nd of December but 3Ist of December 1912. "Dec 3" means 31st Dec. 1918, and so on. To those who are further behind than "Dec 2" we ®pecially ask for settlement.
