A year sgo tlio Shelburiie Free Vress noted the tiuding, near that villa^, of tha nU of Some huge prehistoric animal These remains were disivivered while excavating for a well, but owing ti> tba latx* (|uanlity of water flowing in oparatiuus had to ba abaodonad. Lately, Vwever, work tut b«an raiuioed and the result is that other portions of the mammoth beast have been uiiearthed. Those who have seen tha bones cannot place the species of animal to wbith they beliJig. So far as known no other roniaiDs of a like nature have ever bean diacuvered. They belong to neither the mastodon or mammoth. Una horn has been secured, which, Mr. R.L. Mortimer, of the Frue Press, iiufomis us, must have stood out nine or ton feet fram the head, or about twenty feet from tip to tip. The horn has the orthodox curve of an oxe's horn. A largs number of the Utnos are now on exhibition, but the complete skeleton has not yet been ex- humed. Hero is something which may puzzle the zoographer to describe. So far wo have not heard of the remain.s having been examined by any professor cum- petsnt to decide as to the order af the animal which they represent. Garden Party. The garden party whieh waa advertised to be givea by the young ladies o£ tlie Methodist Church, took place on Friday evening Inst, on the spacious grounds of Mrs. Geo. Dinwoodie, near Masherton, having \>aen postponed from Wednesday owing to rain. The party gathered to- gether was not large. The evening wa.s rather cool, which, no doubt, cau-ied a great many to remain away. The eLe- ini nts seemed to frown upon the young [leople iu their effi;rts to tjet up this party. Those who were there, howsver, appeard to enjoy theii^talvei heartily. Good Crops. The following from tha Manitoulin Expositor go to show that agriculturists on the island will have no cause of com- plaint thi.i season : "Ki^hteen ears of fall wheat, containing 770 grains, on straw four feet six inches loBif all grown from one grain. They stand at present in the corner of our offico and came frtjm tho farm of Wm. I'etere and are uo IhjI- tcr than Iha rest of the field. Timothy fetft 2 inches long, oats 5 feat 8 inches long, and spring wheat 5 feet 6 inches long with fourteen ears to the one nut These also stand in our offico and came from the farm of Henry Shannon, the grain all largo and plump and handsoma enough to please anyane." In the Poaiiut BuainesB. An item ha.s been .going the newspaper rounds stating th&t tho Canadian I'aciiic railway campany hat fired all nuwa- butchers and candy mongers from their lines, and that henceforth tho passenger niny ride in peace. This is a mistake. The company, considering that the caleiing in these lines was not satis- factory to travellera, has. taken over the business itself and will hereafter pester passengers on the latest a]>pr<ived jdaii. This is done through philanthropic motives, wo presume. Of course tho fact that Mr. Burgess fwa think his name was lUirgess) lato proprietor of the news company which supplied the C.I'. K. trains, made fid, 000 in three years, may have been a small incentive in tha eyes of the railway authorities. It sounds nice, does it not, to road that (he O.l'.R. are selling peanuts, popcorn packages, and aranges for a living ! The "Wiartou Excursion.

Tho train which convoyed tha party con- sisted of ten coaches, containing between seven and eight hundred people, of whi.h number Flesherton contributed about thirty. Upon arriving at Owen Sound the party wa.i transferred to the steamer ('iirnioim, which was in waiting, by which they were conveyed to Wiart(.n, where they arrived at 2,30. Tho village of Wiartoii IS growing steadily and suroly. Fifteen years ago, when wo first taw it, it was a mere hamlet, with piobahly twenty houses. To-day it is an incorporated vil- lage Wiith tho population and appliances of a.towi). It boasts.oC several e.\celleiit hotels, of which the Arlington is the best appointed and most |)retentioua. Tha pulilic p.irk .skirting thu cliffs which over look the bay is not by any means the Itmut Rltniction which Wiarton boasts. The park is pioturasi|ualy situated and is made more beautiful by a small assistance of nattir«. Trees and rocks adorn it ; tables are placed at. intervals for the accoiuinodation of picnic parties, and a limpid stream of cold water wanders through it, rising froni out the limestana clitfs near by. Tho village has a system of waterworks and fire protaotiou uf whieh any city might tie proud. A>n aihibitinn of thit wat given by tha fira department for tht benefit. Q^ ihair vitit(to. Cour diffar«iit litiet of hose were attached to twc hy- drants and an inch-and-a-half stream poured from each to a great heigl^. We should^ say that Wiarton is ji^s^tically impregnable to tire with the magnificent protection which is afforded by her water- works. The time at our disposal; wat not Buthcieiit to examine the town as we would have liked to, but from what was seen we should judge the place has not yet sepn its palmiest days. Bverythiug has an appearance of newnett,y8t there is asubstantial glow of health which predicts still greater growth in manufactures and lutrcantile industries. The boat left at 3.20, and Owen Sound was reached at 0.30, where the excursionists had until eight o'clock to do that future western metroiKjlis of Ontario, the Flesherton contingent arriviig home a little after 10 o'clock, having enjoyed a pleasure trip which wiU not toon ba forgotten. Flesherton public school opened on Monday last. An amusing game of baseball was played on Monday afternoon between the married and single men of Flesherton. There are conflicting ruiBors as te how the score stood, Bi>me placing it at 10 to 15 in favor of the married men, others claiming that it was 34 to 40 in faror of the single men. This latter statement wo are oarselvet inclined to accept. busbela of peauuls are consumed in this country every year.

Each kernel products a running vine, like crab grass, and each root produces about twenty p«ls. When ripe, the plow is run through the loamy soil, on a dry day, just before frost. The nuts arc dried and shocked up like corn to keep dry before housing. When marketed, they go to a cleaner wliere they are put through steam power machines and polished, after whi:h they are graded according to size and variety. This year there is but two-thirds of a crop, and they are higher in price than since 1884. The crop begins to come into tho market about tho fiiBl of September. The Virginia nut is the largest aud finest. The Wi'miugton is a smaller sort, aud the Spanish init, a still smaller variety, is one whose kernels peel per- feptly clean, thus making it valuable for confectionary " MW" ' A 1) V ERT18EM Eâ„¢ Pediail.
