Grey Conservative Candidate The Grey Review prints the following facts regarding the life of R. J. Bail, Warden of this county and the man se- lected lapt week by the Conservatives to contest South Grey against H. H. Miller, the sitting member : He is a native of the county, havinii been born io the township of Normanby about 50 years ago. He becan his public life as a teacher some 30 years ago, tsuatht on third and second class certificates very successfuly for a number of years and subsequently took up insurance work. Later he se- cured banking experience in Hanover and still later formed a partnership with Mr. Hollinger in the furniture manufactuting business, the firm of Holiinzer & Ball, running for a few years until at last the establishment came entirely under his own control and is so at present. Seme years ago R. J. asked bis fellow citizens for a place in the town council and got it. For a term also he repre- sented No. 3 Division in the County Council. Lender the new system he was elected Reeve of the town and thus . his CountyCouucil experience was continued. Last January he was elected Warden of the county of Grey, the highest honor he has yet reached, thus furnishiog the stimulus, no doubt, to induce him to as- pire to still higher honors, and to face the must popular and efficient parliamen- tarian South Grey has ever known. Mr Ball is .-i fair .ipeaker and in private life a most estimable gentleman. He was in:irrieil to a Miss Leonard, a member of a well-known Normanby family, and their family consists of three sons and three daughters. One hun.lred and twenty turkeys, roosting in ihe branches of a great elm just outside Dayton, Ohio, were instantly killed by a bolt of lightiing which struck the tree. The dead turkeys dropped in a cloud to the ground, and at the same monieut the stricken tree, fallini< killed two steers which had taken refuge under- neath it. Hot Electricity in Omdalk They had a lively time for a few min- utes in Dundalk at the cloae of the cele- bration on July 13, about 8 o'clock. A rain storm came on and it got quite dark in the Queen's hotel. The proprietor went to turn on the light and he got a shock and could nor let go until his hands were badly burned. Another luan caui(ht hold of Mr. Maxwell and he w<is knocked down. All the lights were jjuc out of businesa. James H. Wilkinson of Shei- bume was assisting in the bar at the time and the live wire thuO had fallen from the ceiling struck him on the arm and knock- ed him insensible on the floor. When ha came to he caught hold of the bar to jump out whon he got another shock that knocked him out again. When be came to he made another attempt to get out and when on top of the bar rolled off and fell on the floor. In falling he hurt hia leg. He was carried outside and came to his senses in a few minutes. He is very lame and has to use a cane to get around. The bithts in the Grand Central hotel and J. E. Richards' store were alao smashed and both buildings were fired, but the biases were put out before much damage was done. It is supposed thit the wiring in the alxive nami^d places was defective. Sparks were flying in all di- rections from tbe live wire in the Queen's hotel as it swung around the bar- -Shel- burua Free Presa.
