WATERLOO, ONTARIO, THURSDAY MORNING, AUGUST 10, 1893 Mr. Ferguson, of the 9th con. of Hov wick, was mowing with a grass scythe. He stopped to speak to a neighbor who was passing and in going to work again he tripped on a root and fell with his knees on the edge of the scythe, splitting the knee cap in two. Mr. Ferguson will most likely have a stiff knee. The same day a boy on the " joining farm while sharpening, a scythe allowed it to slip. The blade came. in contact With his side, inflicting a fear- ful gash across the ribs. The poor fel- low nearly bled to death before reach- ing the house. The other day a curiosity in the shape of a growth was removed from the neck of a cow belonging to Mr, W, P. Tolton, Waldemar. It weighed about two pounds. In the center was a solid bone, and on the outside pieces of bone, similar to a hoof had formed. How a bone could form on a cow"s neck is a conundrum, and is something which was probably never heard of be- fore. . Miss Bessie Fleming, aged 17, young- est daughter of James Fleming, in- spector of legal offices, and formerly registrar of Peel, was drowned in Lake Rousseau on last Wednesday after. noon. A' BUDGET FROM comma PONDENTS AND OTHER SEOURCES. Mr. Long of St. Mary's has received $20 of conscience mom-y from a party unknown. The money was putinto an envelope addressed to the Rev.

Buff inger's barn was on fire; the hand en- gine and Mr. Livingston’s water works soon had streams of water playing, on the fire and quenched the flames. It was only a small frame structure. Two nice pies perished in the Gmes. gone. Her body was brought to Wire terbourne for interment on Saturday morning, and a large number of sym- pathizing friends jnined the cortege at the grave or by the way from Bellin. The impressive service by the Rev. A. M. Hamilton, the suddenness of the death to the people, and the fact that she was one of themselves until lately and so highly esteemed, rendered the scene at the grave a sorrowful one in- deed. Miss Glennie was a. young lady of amiable disposition, and possessed a large share of the characteristic Kina, ness of the family. She was very high- ly thought of by all who had the pleas- ure of her acquaintance.-Elora Ere press. The religious quarterly services of the Methodist Mission were held at Hawkesville on Sunday last.

The parties in the case live near Nithburg in the south part of the township.
