IE, B, DUERING BERLIN the Town Waterloo, For of on the Guelph road, There was one room in the house which he could not get into, as Mrs. Harper said she had no key for it. However, Mr, Bing- ham effected an entrance by the wind. ow and in looking through the room found in a stone jar what he supposed to be the bones of a child. Coroner McNaughton was notifi, d and he and Dr. Gear made an examination. An inquest was held. Bingham said that a. day or two before the 24th May on raising the window of the room he was almost knocked down by the smell. The room had been used as a receptacle for old rage, for it was littered with all sorts of eastoff garments in every stage of decay. On one side of the room mood a large earthen crock. On proceeding to investigate the crock Bingham found stuffed in the top of it a blanket and a sheet. On with- drawing these, the stench became far greater. He went on with his search and was horrified to find covered with lime in the bottom of the crock part of the bones of an infant. Mrs. Harper' was' examined and stated that no per- son had been in the room since Miles Young had slept in it, over 13 years "ago. According to the coroner's state- ment the body had evidently been there for about a year, and to judge by the bones remaining was that of a well- l developed child. We lately witnessed some very fine selections of parlor music rendered by the following: Chas. Koehlerjr., Chas. F. Ottman, Katie Koehler and Chas. Koehler sc, playing the instruments named violin, comet, organ and string- bass. We are sorry to report the well equipped glove works of J. G. Reine-r are at a stand still at present.

Last Friday about 3000 lbs. changed hands at the Woollen Mills alone. The tallest man in West Zorra is Jas. Gibbon who resides in the 9th com, north of Braemar.

Through the (ice th of an aunt, Miss Euphemia Walke', of Blenheim, Mrs- John Hamilton, Paris, has just fallen heir to a fortune af four or tive thous- and dollars. Miss Walker died 11th of May, 1893, and left an estate worth $60,000. In her will a small sum was left to the Bible Society and also to the Presbyterian Church, Princeton. The balance, all divided equally be. tween thirteen heirs-nephews and nieeee-eaeh one receiving about 84,- 500. Mrs. John Hamilton, of Paris, is one of the heirs. The estate IS to be divided at once.

There might be a case where it would be excusable to even repair a fence on the Sabbath, but if it did,com- 111011 decency would dictate a less public moment than during a religious service and the gentleman referred to must not suppose that he has raised himself in the estimation of the people here by his unseemly and disrespectful conduct nor must he imagine that a repetition of it will be allowed to pass with im- punity. Mr. Wm. Coote has opened out a general store at Dorking. Mr. Penr broke Rainnie has been engaged as Manager.

The weather was all that could be expected and the catch of fish wss-well good as was expected. All however agree that they thoroughly enjoyed the outing. Mr. Albert Proudlnve of Hawks, ville occupied the Methodist pulpit hereon Sunday evening and as usual favored the Congregation with a most thoughtful discourse. We regret how- ever to have to say that it was de- livered undermore than usually embar- rassing circumstances. Before the preacher had got fairly under way with his discourse, and it is no discredit to him to say that it takes him probably a little longer than some other men to get under way, a farmer whose land lies across the street from the Church began deliberately with hammer and nails to repair a somewhat dilapidated old fence. The noise was not only very unseemly upon the Sabbath but be- came so disturbing to both preacher and congregation that one of the off1ci als went out to remonstrat-e with him for so disturbing C the service, but Thomas was bound to repair that fence and repair it he did. A special train will leave Elmira at 10.30 P. M, on the evening of the lst of July for the benefit of visitors from the south to our celebration. Don't miss it.

When nearing Livingston’s ottice the horses became unmanageable and at Cooper's corner the lines broke, the result being that the horses started off on a. dead run. The box and top with the occupants were precipitated in the ditch at Kumpf's residence. 0n they go and at Lorentz's store they ran into one of Mr. Livingston’s teams driven by a son of Mr, Volk who was jolted off.
