Uo kicks about the cool weather we have up here in the north, and cays strawberries and vpgefables are Uow in vogue down where he came from. No vi'lage in Ontario has better or more substantial ntreets than has Flesh ei ton, and the boulevards are kept in most instances with a fair amount of taste and c-ire, while a consideralo expenditure is made each year upon renewing and build- ing sidewalks, but the cows still roam ai lars;o aiiu are already in evidence. What one citizen attempts to build up anot'ier ( or rather his cow) breaks down, tramples under foor, defaces and destroys. .Inst now the sidewalks are suffering consider ably from bovines dancing upon them. Canaot some scheme be employed where hy this pest can be suppressed i It is not only unsii;htly to have these hoh-s in the sidewalk, but it is (Uingerous, and continuous repair is costly. By the way. while in a grumbling mood, we would like to ask if there is any near pronpect of kiettiiii; (lire tights authorized l>y a pui.'I'C meeting of the citizens last wiutcr. A mock breach of pomise trial was 111 id in Meaford recently under t' e au-piees of the Ladies' Aid of the Methodist cbuich, and appears to have been a unique tiling by way of ciiler- taiiiiiieiit. Mayor Hannll presided as jiiilge. Tho phmtiff was a Mias " Wild Rose." The jury yave a verdict lor the plaintiff ofSl,000.000.26.There was much humor in connection with the affair, and it ended as follows, according t<i the Minor; " The court was about to ad- journ when a boy rushed to the front «ith a cablegram announcing that the detoijd.'iiit's uncle had died in England leaviut; him a foituiie provided ho aL-reed to chanuo his name and marry Miss Wild Rose. To this Mr. Bucll aitreed and the fair plaintiff readily aojuiesced." It sl^rikes us that auch an entertainment would be exceedingly interestiing and we cumm«nd the idea tu vur ladies iu Flesh- erton. J. C.

Such is the justice our judges are lueteing out to our high toned thieves. Aiiutiier problem has lieoo handed in for muihematicians to sirug;ilr with. No ai.swera are wanted in this ottice. We have prolilsms of our own. Tell the an- swer III the policeman, " A man owed $1 and bad Out 75 cents. He wmt to the pawnshop and pawned the 73 cents for 50 ccuis. He met a friend and soid him the pawn ticket calling tor 75 cents fur 50 ceiiib. Ue thus had two 50 cent pieces â€" #1, in fact â€" with which he paid his debt.

Mr. Robt Maxwell, Hepworth, who has been eonductinij a dry goods business in parineiship with his brother in-law, Mr Smellie, oomniilted suicide by taking < arbolic acid. On Saturday Mr Maxwell li.nl attempted suicide by drownini:, but WHS reiiciied. Althi>u>ih a careful watch was kept on his actions he succeeded in ohiainiiii! a bottle of carbolic lUiid that wad in the hou.ie, and it. a few n<inutes afier taking it, died. He was for several years in business in Piiikertoii, sndafter- wards in Chetdey. His mind has been nomewhat clouded for .some time past. The heaviest projectile that was ever fired from a gun weiuhed 2600 pounds, or GOO p'>unds mure than a ton. The kuii from which it was tiied was made at the works of Messrs. Krupp, at Essen, for the Russian Government, and has taken Its place in the fortifications of Croiistadl. Its calibre is l(i^ inches, leni<th of barrel, 44 feet ; it is made of the finest sieel^and weiulis 135 tons. It has a range of twelve miles, and can bo discharged twice in a minute. The cost of each shot is £300. The heaviest English gun weit^hs HI tons, aii(< fires a shoe weighing 1,800 pounds. The heaviest projectile ever fired in Eng- htnd WON thai fired by the Ariiibtruiig IIO- ton gun. The shut weighed 2000 pounds, tiie powder charge 0(50 pouiidsithe powder and shut together stood 9 feet hi'jh. With fairly good fortune it is calculated that the 110 ton gun is limited to seven- ty five rounds, fired with full charges. The enormous size and weight of the gun are serious objections to its use in board ship. .Moreove.-, a miss with such a gun means I he discharge of £160 worth of public pi open y into space.
