week, and his many friends were pleased
to see him. EZFE-5
We hope the Marrow Gauge will be
the means of circulating great deal of
money in our midst. We can furnish
all creation with coal if We csno only get
q market for it. r=-F
The cider season is in full blast. but
The crop will be rather light We think.
from the present high price Of apples.
Cider is essential to good mince pies.
and pie time is fast approaching.
Erter has received q sentence of two
years in the penitentisry for stealing a
pistol. He was brought here for steal
ing a watch. We believe he has not
been tried o the latter charge.
It is with great satisfaction that we
call attention to the double column adj
vertisement of Messrs. Conklin & Beed-
ing. Read it and act accordingly. They
are gentlemen. and are fine business
men.
The residence Of Mr.. Jas. Withers, near
Slayview, was destroyed by fire Tuesday
morning. A bad iue is supposed to
have caused the fire. Only a part of the
furniture was saved. The house was in
,sured for $500, but this sum will not
cover the loss.
Hear the music of the bells, bells,
bells.n Yes, but it is not bells. 1t is
the noise of the workmen on the gaso-
meter. The buildings for the gas COM
bany are rapidly arising. and we hope
nothing will interfere with their early
completion.
I There is a man in this city who says
ue will pay 81 so a bushel for apples OF
q certain kind. He says he has bought
a few at that rate. We would give his
name and place of business, only that
would be advertising a man who want
I'D to charge us a nickle for an apple we
got from a farmers wagon.
Tho price of apples has advanced con.
aiderably since gathering commenced
!! cYe heard of M man who bought 70
,ushels one day at 20 cents a bushel, and
she next day the seller offered fifty cents
bushel to get them back. Good wine.
lap and geniting apples are worth from
\ % TO 80 ceLts.
The Register considers itself ill-treat.
I'd because the Intelligenoer did the
work for the fair at less rates than i,
ould afford. We did all the work, and
e did not make a oent by the opera,
on. This shows how riadictive We
e toward the society. The directors
itronized the Office which did the work
n the least money.
Z Mistakes will happen. In the premi.
an list we got some of the premiums
ID certificates tangled. Master Jos.
~aanslor claims the premium for riding
I'd BERTHE Campbell the certificate. We
Ehblshed the list as it was given us by
70 Chief Marshal. and though there are
few mistakes in it, we are under OBJ
:ations to him for furnishing it to US.
There Is considerable interest mani.
oted in the success of our street car
Hojsct. Everybody wants to know
nat street the road will take. where i,
ill begin. where it will end, what is to
d the price of a ride, and when it is to
Il finished. SC. We hope it will be in
inning order in time for people to
