bush me, he was coming out to fair fight I had q seven-shooter carbine and revolver, and he had the same. I halted my horse, slipped out of the sad dle and, as he came laundering on, shot his horse in the breast, and he went down. The rider was up like cat, and, kneeling beside his horse, he fired five shots at me as fast as he could pull trig- ger, heard the ping of every bullet, though was busily shooting at him. His carbine fouled with the fifth shot, and he sprang up and pulled his reyol- yer. I still had two shots left, and I knew I could kill him. He must come nearer to make his pistol effective, and he was gathering himself for the run, when Providence stepped in to prevent me from shedding his blood. He was standing near the hind feet of his horse. The dying animal suddenly drew up both feet and gave tremendous kick, and the outlaw was knocked over and over on the grass. As he lay perfectly quiet, I finally advanced to find him dead, his whole right side crushed in by the powerful blow. l found about $400 in gold about him, together with three fine watches he had taken from travellers, and it was evident from the way he had packed things that he was waiting to kill me before leaving for some distant part of the country. He was the last bushranger seen in that district, which to-day contains five oI six towns, and white population o1 | thousands. ---

The entertainment given by the La- dies Enterprise society at Academy Hall, April IS, was complete success. "Harrison's March, organ solo, by Miss Lottie Parrack was finely executed. A recitation by Miss Hattie Perry, "Five Little Green Peas," brought forth much applause. The youngest member to take part in the exercises was Ida Ward, only nine years old. Her part was an organ solo, Little Mischievous Waltz and she won all by her wonderful play ing, which would do credit to her elders. Next came an instrumental duet by Frank and Elsie Ward, we'll rendered. The comedy, "Madcap," made fun for a time and, as each character did well, the play was-one of the best. Last but not least, led by Mrs Osborn on the organ, came the Peak Sisters, nine poor old maids, with their aunt, Sukay Jerusha. Their burlesque concert was a success, judging from the applause received as they left the stage.
 Those who failed to attend the centen- nial union service at the Congregational church missed a rare treat. The speak CTS, Revs D. J. Ogden, Mir Roberts and MT Gilbert, were interesting. The choir of 50 members rendered fine music. The floral decorations were beautiful, kindly contributed by Mrs Osborn, Mrs Ed wards and Mrs Clark.

 An adjourned parish meeting of Christ church was held in the chapel, Monday evening, with Rev c. L. Pardee in the chair. Robert H. Russell, treas urer, reported deficiency of about $500, owing to heavy extra expences for repairs and insurance. In order to meet this deficiency, it was resolved to con- suit the pew holders and members as to the advisability of adopting the envel- ope! system for offertories, also to make it optional to pay pew rents weekly in this way, so that the treasurer will be able to meet the liabilities as they be- come due.
