Their names are not known. A young man, Bailie, of Toronto Gore was sued for breach of promise by Miss Craig, of Chingacousy. The Case was tried at Brampton on Tuesday, when Bailie was mulcted in $1200 damages. Mr. Robert Trench, of Aurora, brother of Mr. W. Trench, of this place, left for Brandon the early part of this week. H13 family accompames him as far as Independence, Iowa, where they will remain till spring. Mr. Trench offers to blow a. town whistle {our times a. day if the Council will put one on his engine. Something in the shape of a whistle or hell is much needed.

Fuller particulars will be given next Week. On Thursday morning of last week the door of the office of the Markham Econ- omist was observed to be draped with craps. No one was dead within, how- ever, but some evil-disgoged Tories, who felt good over the electibn of Mr. Will- iamson as Reeve, thought they would have some fun, but the Economist did not feel funny.

Tickets 25 cents: Reserved seats 35 cents. A Difference. Eggs at this season of the year are a precious come-atâ€"able, ‘ comestible. But while the hen fraternity generally make 1» strike just about Easter, and demand higher prices, it is seldom that there is such a marked difference in the price in so short a distance as was last week when one establishment in town knocked them down at 23 cents and an- other at 18 cents. Wzggins’ Storm. The great Storm foretold by Professor \Viggins which was to sweep over Canada. from the west to east on Sunday was not by any means a success. There was a. brisk breeze blowing part of the day from north of nor-west, but not by any means as heavy as some gleei we have had dur- ing the season. As far as this vicinity is concerned \Viggins’ storm was a failure, though we believe in some sections they had heavy snow and high winds Safe-blowers at Work. A determined but unsuccessful attempt was made on Sunday morning by burg- lar-x to break open the safe in Eagle’s hotel “fasten. Holes had been‘ drilled in the safe, and a. broken bar, a twisted "jnnmy,” and a. brace and bit, which Wcl‘c found lying on the floor, were suffi- cent evidences of the efforts made to force the door 01?. There were $800 in the safe, and Mr. Eagle thinks that the burglars must have been aware or that fact. High Constable Jones was notified, and a. county constable have been sent out to arrest any suspicious»looking part- ies. The event has caused considerable exciLcmentemong the villagers..

Easter will soon be here with its hal- lowiug recollections. It is exceedingly pleasant to receive from one’s friends some token of rememberance at these seasons of festivities. One of the most pleasant, customs of our day is the cus- tom which prevails so largely, and is fast becoming more and more popular every- where, of sending at Christmas, New Years, and Easter cards with appro- prate designs and mottos to friends. This year the custom will prevail more largly than ever. The finest stock of Easter and Birthday cards that has ever been exhibited north of Toronto may now be seen at THE LIBERAL Depot. He predicted that the month would be an unusually stormy one, especially on the 4th and 5th and again on the 10th and 12th,' with tremendous snow drifts in the Western States. 17th to 20th general heavy snow and rain storms with a further heavy blow 0n the 27th. The end of the month will be full of snow. sleet, wind and rain, and the month will be one of the stormiest experienced in a. long period of years and there is a. proba- bility of great destruction of life and property. The storm period of the 10th and 12th will undoubtedly be severe and wide spread, but the heavy rain and wind Storm on the 27th to 30th may cause the greatest harm, particularly towards New York and the middle sea.- board. A man named Michael Hackett, of Newton Brook, has been canvassing Vaughan and West York for assistance to pay his doctor bill, representing that he is being sued for $129.00,and in some instances $150 00, by the executors of the late Dr. Reid. He has been rather successful in collecting money, a number whom we could name being already victimised. The public is cautioned not to give him anymore help under the above representation as all he is being sued for is $29.00, which is not one half of the regular fee. t’revious to putting the account in court the executors ofl'er- ed to' take four or five cords of good wood and give him a receipt in full. He wrote a very abusive letter to the execut- ors and th y not wishing any further trouble put the matter in the court. An Admonition. The LIBERAL man would, in all sincer- ity admonish those who contemplate making a sudden descent on natures con- solidated beverage to take the precaution to make one of the following arrange- ments: Pick a soft spot either on the ice or on your physiological development on which to alight,descend gradually, say on hands and knees first. u':c., or carry a pillow with you on which to make the descent. The writer having neglected these precautions on an occasion of this kind, a few weeks ago, his perambulations are consequently somewhat circumscrib- ed. and the sanctum boasts an extra piece of furniture in the shape of an edit- or’s canefthe combined duties of which are to up hold an injured back, strengthen a. sprained limb and to dI‘lVB away invaders of the sacred precincts who want to pour their grievances into the editors ears. The Grand Jury’s Presentmcnt. The grand jury, in making their usual presentment to the judge at the conclus- ion of business Saturday, said that they were sorry that the cases of petty larcery had not been disposed of by the magist- rate before whom tthey were arraigned and savedtthe expense of a jury. They They complained very strongly about the condition of the court house in mg srd to the accomodation, light, air and ventilation. 1n visiting the public inst- itutions they found in the hospital 200 patients receiving good treatment. In the jail were 107 prisoners, in the asylum 711 patients, in the Mercer refm'matory 1'73 inmates, in the central prison 299 men, all busily employed; and in the Parkdale home for incurables 57 patients most comfortably provided for. They expressed their regret at the loss the court had sustained through the death of Judge McKenzie. Since Dr. Thomas’ Eclectric Oil has be- come celebrated, a, number of unprin- cipled persons have been endeavoring to palm off Electron and Electric Oil for the genuine DR THuMAs’ ECLEUTRIC OIL. Be- ware of these similar named articles. If their originator had any faith in the heal- ing preperties of their own,and not try to sell them on the reputation of another; but as they knew their preparation have no merit, they resort to the most unprin- cipled means of selling them by getting a name as near as possible to Ecletric. We therefore ask the public when purchasing to see that the name Dr.Thomas’ Ecletric Oil is on the wrapper and the signature of Nomnnor & LYMAN, the proprietors for Canada, on the back. â€"Tho Dublin authorities are chargrin- ed by the flight of Egan, the evidence of whose direct complicity in numemus crimes is said to be rapidly accumulating. Woman’s True Friend. A friend in need is a friend in deed. This none can deny, especially when as- sxstance is rendered when one is; sorely afliicted with disease, more particularly by those Complaints and weaknesses so common to our female population. Every woman should know that Electric Bitters are woman’s true friend,and will positively restore her health, even when all other remedies fail. A single trial always proves our assertion. They are pleasant to the taste. and only cost fifty cents a bottle. Sold by .R. E. Law, Ric- mond Hill, and CL. A'.. ,Hewitt «S: 00., Thomlhill. Easter and Birthday Cards. B eware of Imitations.
