Fowls as Habit1aI. Drunizard..

Mr.. Andrew Lang was called the other
day as witness in a case at Oban, in
the north of Scotland heard by Sheriff
McTavish. Mr.. Lang did not appear,
and by his non-appearance he has sub
tracted from the sum total of human hap
piness, for he was called. apparently, as
an expert on the habits of inebriety
among fowls, and the spectacle of the cul-
tured essayist and novelist being cross
examined as to whether an unregenerats
hen was suffering from whisky or from
gapes, would have added to the gaiety Of
nations Even without Mr.. Lang, the hu-
NOR of the proceedings was of the eigh-
teen carat description. Damages we're
claimed against the local distillery com
pany by one John Turner of Laggan for
injury done to his poultry by the said
company in allowing Intoxicating material
to flow into the Laggan' burn. For some
years Mr.. Turner has made a considers
BILE income from keeping poultry, but since
the starting of the distillery he has made
little or nothing. He declared that his
hens and ducks would not eat. Except on
Sundays, when the distillery is not work
ing, they are almost always under the in
f1uence of drink. On Sundays their conol-
ton is pitiable in the extreme. but Mon
days are their worst days, for then the
hens drink excessively, frequently fall
into the burn, and lately Mr.. Turner has
had to keep a boy to look after the inc
briates on Monday morning. The con-
duct of the hens generally is very repre-
hensible and the ducks are better than
the hens. 1t further appeared by the eW-
dence that a disreputable fowl which
hailed from Fort William, and new.
conner in Mr.. Turner's poultry yard, mao
acted as the Mephistopheles that had lea
the aforetime moral inmates Of the yaru

Good TcmpIars at the Home.

Richmond Lodge, !. O. G. T., Wednesday
evening entertained the Soldiers Home
branch of the order In a delightful man
ner. the affair being under the auspices
Of Brother Donnon, chairman Of the
brothers and sisters from the lodge Of
this city. Miss Minnie Gill opened the
programme with recitation, which was
highly appreciated by the old veterans OF
the home. Miss Bessie Atkins and Miss
Bessie White followed in a fine duet,
which was received with great applause.
Miss Bette Pace then read Of the Wilder
ness battle, and when the name Of Lee
was mentioned the old veterans rose to
their feet with yell and the enthusiasm
lasted several minutes. The solo by Miss
Fannie Fore was highly enjoyed by the
old soldiers. The address of Brother
Shepherd on the Lost Cause" was most
excellent. 1t was followed by a recita-
ton by Brother Gus Schnurman. which
was well received. Miss Bette Pace was
called upon for a second rendition, and
loudly applauded. The entertainment con-
cluded by Brother Williams, past chief
templar, returning thanks to the Rich
mond Lodge for their grand entertain
ment. twenty-five members Of Richmond
Lodge were present.
The old men expressed great delight at
being so kindly remembered by their
Richmond friends. They have a growing
lodge here, which is undoubtedly bene-
fetal to the home.

THE BLOW CAUSED HIS DEATH.
Valentine Noting Dies from Being
Hit by a Baseball.

One Of the saddest deaths that has
occurred this year was that of little
Valentine Noting. the 10-year-old son OF
Mr. Harrison Noting who passed away
yesterday morning shortly after ! o'clock.
In TO a few hours before his death he
was as bright and lively as little fellow
could be.
His sudden death was the result of a
blow received on the head from base
ball, while he was playing the game with
a number Of his companions Thursday
afternoon on the Richmond College
campus. The lad was not thought to be
at all seriously hurt, and was out with
his companions. as usual. Tuesday and
Wednesday, and on the latter day was
again playing ball on the college grounds.
When he returned home that afternoon
he complained to his mother Of suffering
with a pain in his head, and a short
while afterwards went into commissions.
A physician was summoned. but could
do nothing for the little sufferer, who
died at the hour above mentioned, death
being caused by blood on the brain, as
a result of the blow.
