By ilu Society`: Own Reporter, - At the meeting of the Barrie Literary So- ciety on Friday evening last, Mr. Hanghton Lenuox having gathered up some Leaves from _his Diary, gave a ho autiful descri A tion of a holiulaytour, in which the Niagara Falls were visited. On a previous occasion the society had the good fortune to hear Mr. Lennox deliver an account of a` trip in sum- mer slongethe North Shore. and though his remarks in reference to that holiday jaunt were. from a literary standpoint, exception- I ally fine, yet his last endeavor was incom- parable with the former. Indeed, speaking with all sincerity, many of the passages read on Friday evening equalled the descriptions of the Falls by Uean Stanley and the Duke of Argyle. A careful and extensive reading lends to all Mr. Lennox s` literary produc- tions an interest so readily appreciated by the society. Mr. Pnrvis discharged the duties of critic. and made some remarks abnut the subject-matter of the evening which provoked a. lively and spicy criticism by the chairman, Mr. Edwards, and many other members. A new and interesting de parture in the way of the `society's program will be made at the meeting on the 5th inst. ; . _..__---._-,-_._ , P I I I \4\IIlI4IllnIrI-IUI 0 | The Queen vs. E. F.

The wife then rushed out, followed by the prisrner, who `kept kicking her as she ran, nally knocking her into the ditch. He then sprung on her, drove his nails into her throat, bringing the blood. and tore off her neck-tie, portions of which were afterwards found in the ditch. as well as the unfortu- nste woman's combs. The only detence at- tempted to he set up was that the prisoner- s wife was-a. continual source of 'provooation to him, and that her evidence was unworthy of credit. The prisoner was found guilty and sentenced to six months in the Central Prison with hard labour. M.

It is gratifying to note that the committee has fullled the conditions under which the grant is made,'and likewise that these even- ing classes have gained eleven new `members to the institute. The following is a para- graph of the report in full : "Owing to the doubt in which matters stand, whether the motion to grant the use of a room in the model school was carried or not. your com- mittee made arrangements whereby both classes meet in Mr. Shaw s studio. Your committee cannot help expressing "regret that all the members of the public school board did not see their way to give otlicisl encouragement to the efforts of the institute to do needed educational work. The re- port proceeds to state the pleasure of the committee in stating that Mr. .Henderson, assistant teacher in the model school, has nearly completed the practice of the operat- ta, which he purposes giving for the benet of the institute. After informing the board that arrangements for two lectures by Dr May had been made, to be delivered on the .22nd and 23rd ins2s.. the committee recom- inended that (1) it be empowered to make all necessary arrangements in connection with the pl`0(1DCLl0n of theoperatta ; (2) that the operatta be given on Friday evening, Dec. 19. and `a. matinee to the school child ren on the Saturday afternoon following ; (2) that the admission fee to the operatta be 36 cents for reserved and 25 cents for ordin- ary seats ; (4) that the admission fee to Dr. May's lectures be 15 cents for one lecture, 25 cents for the course of two, and that members he admitted free to first lecture.

If `it were true that the agreement had laysed two _wars- ago, they were workmgt under no agreement now. ln respect to the repmt he thought it con tradictory. as the Reeve had pointed out. If we had no provision for extending, some fresh steps ought to be` taken to that end and a binding agreement made. The whole , matter should be put on a. business-like basis.

For five the company were to put up lamps where re-- quired whereyer their mains extended to, x ml although that time was up they were still working on that agreement. All he wanted was not to place the council in a false position by granting the lamps and yet being glad the gas company would not put the mains in to_supply them. A M r. McLean said the agreement with the gas company expired two years ago He certainly though: the gas company had acted harshly with them. The people wanted the lamps and ovght to get them. and he thought the council was more economical in the mat- ter of lighting the town than in other matters.

Probably it was just as wellthat the gas company would not extend their mains, as the cost would be saved to ' the town of keeping the lamps supplied. They had invested their money and expect-` ed a dividend, and it was hardly fair to ex- pect them to expand it in extending their mains. V _ Mr. Ross said the report was an absurdity on the face of it. The committee was only deceiving these people. He thought it would be much better to be honest with the people` and explain why their request could not be:` granted. Mr. Myers said the first thing they should do was to pass the report, and have a formal notice from the gas company that it would g not put in the mains reqtgired.
