The firm of Richardson & Webster, St. Marys, have purchased the St. Al-y bans shredder, manufactured in St. Al- bans, Vermont, with the view of manu- facturing them if proven to be satisfac: cory. The machine takes off the ears and shreds the corn stalks at the same time. 'Trials will be made in the corn fields of several prominent farmers near town. If successful the machine will prove of great benefit to farmers at this season at me year, in the matter of corn growl The Toronto Mail of Monday of last week says that a young girl is under arrest ab No. 1 police stution in that city on a charge of yagrancy. Wm. Cosgrove is held at No. 8 police station on the charge of seduction, and behind these two facts there lies a sad story A few weeks ago Wm. Cosgrove, who travels as advance agent for the Cos yrove troupe of bell-ringers, formerly of St. Marys, was in Grand Valley, Ont., -billing the town for his company. This girl, who, itis said, is but sixteen years of age, was employed at dress: making in the village, and by chance met Cosgrove. She became jufatuated with hin, and with little trouble, she says he induced her to come to Tor onto with him. Uer parents are re- spectable farmer folks livVing near Arthur, Ont., and when they heard the Gone ute foolishness they took steps to have Cosgrove arrested, le FAS taken in custody at his residence, 331 College street, by Inspector Armstrong on Sunday morning. As the girl is still quite willing to go with him, she has been held a vagrant pending the arrival of her father to take her back home. Her sister resides in Toronto and the entire family are respectably connected, THE ELMA FAIR. (CONTINUED FROM FIRST PAGE.) Considerable annoyance was oc- cusioned by the bungling -of the reserved seats; many who had previous ly bought seats were unable to get them when they got to the hall: The trouble was due to Mr, McAlpine, the maniger of the troupe, who deliberate- ly re arranged the seating contrary to the plan, aud caused seats to be resold, and otherwise mixed things up general- ly, until it was all but impossible to straighten matters out. That there was no bloodsled ought to be a matter of congratulation to Mr. McAlpine. In justice to Mr Wynn, of the drug store, who had charge of the plan prior to the :| night of the concert, we might add that it was no fault of his, as the seats were properly checked and entered up as solid. We have placed the blame where it belongs after diligent enquiry. Ethel.
