Bishop Mann of the Episcopal church
was here on Sunday and preached in the
morning. His discourse while not q
eloquent style was of the more logica
and argumentative and was scholarly
and interesting. He apoiogizedfo for the
fact that pressing engagements occur
fling since the announcements were made
for his coming here, prevented his sta,

essary to leave on the afternoon train
thus disappointing many who attended
in,the evening.
An insane mau was brought over from
Neohe this week. He is stranger anc
imagines he is entitled to several mill

gives his name as Delos Kurrei and says

of his is likely to be the fact, as he has

ports are as yet very varying. Drayton
reports Disappointing crop with an av.
erage, some say six and some say ten
bushels. while about Pembina the grain
seems to be all right where II was gotten
in right and fair yield. Other parts Of
the country send like conflicting reports,
and it is probable that we will not know
the whole truth until the threshers get at
work. The threshing machines begin
some next week and some the week at.
