We understand the Aurora White Stockings have flunked. and the match between them and the Stars, advertised fonthe 7th inst, will not come off. The Stars me trying to arrange :1 match with the Torontos. Messrs. Hugh Miller & 00., of To« ronto, have purchased the drug store of Mr. Geo. Rankin, in this place, and opened a branch of their drug business in his old stand. The Council, on Wednesday evening last, appointed a committee to take into consideration the subject of exemption from taxation. We are glad to see that the members present expressed them- selves in favor of doing away with all exemptions. We believe this View of the ‘case to be the most in accordance with enlightened public opinion, and we have no doubt the ratepayers will sustain any movement in this direction. The literary and musical eniertain- ment given by the Richmond Hill Tem- fle, I. O. G. T., on \Vednesday evening ast, was not so well attended as was expected owing to the threatening ap- pearance of the weather; still there was a fair audience. The programme given was very good. A Thornhill man had a cat which he deemed had rendered him sufficient ser- vice. He took the animal into the garden, struck it nine times on the head with a hammer, and as it still moved, he boxed its. ears with a spade and buried it. Next morning that cat walked serenely into breakfast willing to forget the past. ‘ The Crystal Lodge, U.

P J I I Mr. Bostwick made a futile effort to catch hold of the old‘man's ear, intendng to pour his explanation into it as one pours water into a funnel, but his landlord briskly (lodg- ed and waved Bostwick away with an expres- sinn of apprehension. Mr. Bostwick groun- ed and endeavored to explnin 'to the old gentleman in a manner that. would convey to the pretty customers and the others in the store the idea. that he was refusing to ive the old man credit, and at the same time let Glusford know that he was “ bu’st- ed." “ Hey !” shouted 1118 old man looking at Bostwiuk’s ugnituted face in some alarm, “why, why, wha’s the muHer? ’8 map- pcued ‘2” Young Mr. Bostwiek has moved. He liked the house he has been living; in well enough, and Mrs. Bostwick fairly cried her eyes out when they left it. because it, had a bay window and blinds with slates that you could turn so that you could see anybody in the street and nobody could see you. But old Mr. Glasi'orti, the landlord, was very deaf, and it was on account of this infirmity that the tenant left the house. Mrs. Bostwick said she couldn’t see what Mr. Glast'ord's deafness had to do with the house, but her husband only looked worried and said it made a great deal of difference with a man’s peace of mind, when he had something he wanted to whisper, and had to whisper it to a man who couldn’t" hear anything it'he went into a boiler factory. Mrs. Bostwick didn’t understand what differ- ence it made anyhow, but then she wasn’t down town last Wednesday, when old Mr. Glorif'ord went. into the store where her hus- band was selling a lovely youngr divinity from Denmatk a dress pattern off a piece of Centennial precale. Mr. Bostwiek saw the old gentleman coming and felt very ner- vous. Eager to anticipate the demand which he knew the old man was going to make, he dashed toward him with an abrupt- ncss that astonished the fair customer who had Just lost herself in admiration of Bostwiek’s diamond pm, and gratified to learn that he was not a clerk but the silent partner, holdingr about $475,000 worth of stock in the concern, and that hejust worked from pure love ot'employment. Mr. Dost- wick checked the old man about ten t'ect away from his Customer, and leaning over the counter so as to get as close range on his car as possible, whispered hoarsely that “ it wouldn’t be convenient to pay that rent toâ€"day.” An extraordinary drowning case was in vestigated at Bradford, recently. at an in- quest on the body of William Hall, seven years old, found in a mi“ dam on Saturday. Another b0y,nine yearS'old Walter A veynrd, said that on the prekus night he was play- ing with the deceased and four others near the dam, when he saw one of the others, John Wihum Dam), throw deceased into the water. Deceased scrambled out once, but. Dam) took him by the collar and threw him in again, and deceased sank. All the boys run away. and nothlng was said about it till next morning.
