A late Winnipeg special says: Thomas
Anderson, factor for the Hudson Bay
company in the far off Peace river country,
has arrived from the north. He says the
summer has been very dry, and against the
growth OF the crop. There has also been
frosts, injuring crops everywhere but at
Dunvegan. The woods are being de-
stroyed along the south side of the Peace
by the fires, which have never ceased all
summer. The fires have driven out the
game and destroyed berries, which are an
important source of food supply to the
Indians, both in summer and winter, SO
there is likely to be more hunger than ever
this coming winter Unless rain falls the
fires will be still more destructive before
winter sets in. J he Beaver Indians, the
natives of the country, are dying out very
fast, but the Crees, who are coming in
from the Lesser Slave lake and Edmonton,
are increasing.

How a Decision Was Reached,

The land Pierre offered to sell to the
company was 100000 cheaper, all things
considered, than any other town offered
Huron withdrew its offer. The Other
towns had their delegations on hand with
offers. L. L. Stevens, treasurer Of the
company, says all reports as to the inan-
ciai embarrassment of the company are
campaign lies; that the company has nc
debts and has pur, hased property in Pierre
that is worth 500, 900 above cost; that the
company was never in better condition,
and that the demand for shares of ssocl
was never greater. 1t is understood that
Pierre won on plurality vote Of the stock
represented when the question was passed
upon.

For THE HERALD.
BLIND AND RESTORED TO SIGHT

For sixteen years, with occasional
short periods of comparative health
excepted,) l have been an invalid.
Frequently have been so low that
not the faintest heart thr0b, or mo-
ton of the pulse was detected. Given
up for dead, and yet was restored,
again and again, through the mercy
of God by theunwearyinga and skillful
attention of our family Doctor, S, N.
Myers. What 1 have suffer ed of ply
steal pain no human tongue can de-
scribe; no pen portray. Yet all my
suffering through the long painful
months and years, was nothing COM
pared to the mental agony that pierre
ed my soul when L discovered that /
was blind, actually stone blind. as
it possible" I cried in my terror and
despair, that l am never to see the
light again; never behold the faces of
my devoted husband and darling
children. Never see my friends, my
beautiful home, the lovely earth.
Must 1 grope in midnight darkness
until death closes my miserable Ca
reer. Oh, God, thou knowest have
borne my sufferings meekly, uncom-
plainingly, till this new sorrow, this
new borrow, / cannot bear !! / shall go
mad. Myloved ones gathered around
me, I felt their fearful faces, / heard
their sympathetic voices, but nothing
could console me but sight, and that
they could not give me. One advised
this, another that. Some said try q
new Doctor. l knew not what to do.
The cry of Bsrtimeus was mine. "Oh,
Lord, thou son of David have mercy
upon me. Oh that may receive my
sight" Will the plying heavens hear
my agonizing cry?
The physician explained the cause
of my blindness and the means
through which / might gain relief. /
argued with my impatient, restless
spirit. Can l not trust our doctor to
restore me. The cool head, the steady
nerve, the skillful hand that has
snatched me many time from the
very jaws of death. Can / not trust
him still? Yes / could and would. /
did trust him and not in vain Egyp-
tian darkness with all its attendant
horrors settled over me and remained
six weeks. And then, o joy unspeak-
able, through the mercy of God, and
the skillful treatment of DIR. S. n.
Myers, my sight has been restored.
Respectfully,
Mrs. VIM. WILGER.

We are havingjust delightful wealth
err spring indeed. The dirt roads
were never better in May farmers
are blowing for corn; women making
garden, where the men are too lazy to
make it for them; snakes have crawl
ed forth from their dismal abodes,
and the little frogs have aroused from
their lethargic slumbers, and at night
almost deafen one with their ceaseless
merriment.
A spirit of improvement is pervad-
ing this neighborhood and its sur
roundings. Mr.. Morgan Clark has
erected new shop at this point and
is now turning out some first-class
work in leather. Mr.. ]. III. Light is
building a cozy little house on the
northeast corner of his farm to be
used as tenant house. Mr.. Thomas
II. Leblanc is doing the work.
Messrs. Nicely and Nicely, ofNipe-
town, are charging their shops. Here
is the place to get good work done
and as cheap as anywhere in the land.
They do all kinds of blacksmith and
carpenter work, but pay special atten-
ton to buggies, carriages and wagons,
both for light and heavy travel.
The railroad bridge at this place is

DONG A BIG BUSINESS. Some
weeks ago Mr.. Andrew Barrett and
Geo. Ridenour were arrested for en-
tering Mr.. Baily Hess house in the
vicinity of Smiths School House, and
taking about so pounds of meat.
Some of the meat was found in Bar
ret's house, and he was committed
to Jail for trial; and no testimony be-
ing produced against Ridenour, he
was discharged. Since Barrett has
turned States evidence, and tells the
story of their joint operations, which
if he is to be believed were quite ex-
tensive.
Mr.. Barrett says that during the
past winter, he and Mr.. Ridenour
stole from Mr.. Smiths mill two bushel
of corn meal, from Mr.. Geo. Noll a
turkey, turkey from George Glad
den, couple of chickens and pair
of housings from James Kilmer, a tur-
key from John Harsh, and stand of
bees from some one else. Ridenour
was also committed to Jail on Monday
to await trial at the Circuit Court
