City Hall on Sunday evening to listen to
an excellent baccalaureate sermon to the

dered an anthem and lead the singing.

Well, about all the wheat is in at last.
Now with good weather we still have a
show for good crop. And there is also
a good show for good prices this fall,
wheat has struck the dollar MARYLAND
is staying with it very obstinately. Us
ually there is reaction when the price
gets to this altitude, but in the present
case it only lasted one day, down four
cents and then bounding up again. The
market it evidently out of the hands of
trade exchange people. The weather,
bugs and outside people have taken
charge.

cashier of the bank of Hamilton and
one of the fore most citizens of that To-

health requires a warm climate. Mr..
Kellar is an experienced banker. Mr..
Kellar will bring his family to Ham
ilton. Mr.. Green will retain his many
interests in farm lands and in the Ham,

extra work this week prevent the print
ing in full of the program of the gradu

the public school, which has been pre-

will occur on Wednesday evening of
next week at the City Hall. There will
be a general program of songs, drills,
dialogues and recitations and presenta-
ton of the diplomas etc. There are
seventeen graduates. There will be no
admission fee. There will doubtless be
large attendance and the exercises of
very interesting nature.
"A. u VAOuhulbiA, WIZ utS Uceu d pFOu-
inent figure in the settlement of the
Warroad country of recent years, is said
to be confined in the provincial Jail of
Manitoba having been arrested for be-
ing one of the chief instigators of the
Reil rebellion in 1885. When the Cana
dian troops pressed in. on the rebel
forces at Batoch, Monkman with On
mas and others, skipped across into Un-
Gle Sans country where the laws then
protected them. Since then he has not
put his foot on British soil. Recently he
took trip to Winnipeg, evidently think

sence the matter was forgotten, but the
relentless arm of the law never ceases.
