License Inspector Halbert seized seven cases of whiskey on the premises of Geo. Wright, postmaster at Craigleibh. The consignment was confiscated *nd Wright paid a fine of $100 and costs. Wright's premises were evidently a halfway re- snugly to the head. The shapes are small mostly dark, which color serves as n striking foundation upon which to show wonderful contrasts of color lonts. The colors themselves are bizarre in the extreme, combinations are shown and with good effect, and w inch are distinct- ly different to any vogue of the past sea- sons. In trimming!i flowers seem easily to take preference wreaths, garlands, sprays, and bunches, mostly of the smaller flowers are seen in profusion of colors. The hats as -i display are fear- ful and wonderful to behold, but seen on the wearer have quite a marked distinc- tion and style which is a credit alike to the ingenuity of mind that conceived it, and the deft fingers that put them together. Markdale Mrs. George Mundel, of Kimberley, has received the sad uews of the death of her brother, Mr. Burney Galbraith. of Tawas, Mich., where he had been a resi- dent for 30 years.
