OBrritrartr.-Mrs. Anna Boeckner, relict of the late Peter Boeckner, died at the residence of her daughter, Mrs. Jacob Ritz jr., Waterloo, on Saturday, August 12th, at the advanced age of 81 years, 10 months and 10 days. She received a stroke of paralysis in March, 1889, from which she never recovered. She was born Oct. 2nd, 1811, in NiederofReiden, Hesse Darmstadt, Germany, and was married to her hus- band, deceased nine years ago, in 1836. They emigrated to America in 1837 and stayed for: a short time in Buffalo, N. Y., and in the autumn of the same year came to New Hamburg. She was aresidentof New Hamburg for 56 years. The marriage was blessed With nine children of whom five predeceased her. She leaves twosons, two daught- ers, sixteen grand children and four great grand children to mourn their loss. She was a consistent and life long member of the Lutheran church, an affectionate mother, and bore her sufferings with Christian patience, and resignation. Her funeral took place on Tuesday afternoon to the New Hamburg cemetery. "Peace to her ashes " "'lrgteNtourrte. A small party of Witsterbourmeites accompanied by the Rev. M r. Hall and Mrs. Hall of E'inira visited the Model Farm on Thursday last and spent a. very pleasant time there. Part of the time was spent in viewing the many interesting things about. the farm and part in rowing on the river speed. Probably few people in our country are aware of the fact that some of most enchanting bits of scenery in our pro- vince are to he found along the banks of the Speed close to the city of Guelph, and we would advise all who have not done so when visiting the college to spend an hour or two in rowing up the river and they will teel well repaid for their trouble. There are some hungry people however in the vicinity of the college. Tl e pirty under the impres- sion that, at so flourishing an institu- tion as the O. A. c., the employees would get sutficieut to eat without prey- ing upon theprovisionshroughtby vist- ore. who leftStheirLlunchLbaskets in their carriages. The result was that when ten-time came and they went; to look for their baskets they found that some- one had been there before them and devoured nearly everything eatuble that had been left from the noon meal, besides carrying off quire a few of the dishes. One of the young men of the party who had laid in quite a stock of huekleberries when passing through the city with a view to treating the rest of the young people was not a little cha- grined to find that his huckleberries had disappeared along with the rest of the good things. It was somewhat careless, perhaps, to leave the provis- ions in the conveyances but we think it wise to warn the public, also the officers of the institution that there are persons in their employ who are not trustworthy and that the quicker they find them out and invite them to leave the place the better. _ Mr. Arthur Brownridge and Miss Ethel F.

"THAT BU: Mr. Fetch has occupied a. consider- able portion of your space with what purports to be a criticism of the first report of this now celebrated meeting as also of my letter relating thereto. M r.Petch’s correspondence bears very strong internal evidence of assistance in its make up. I fancy that his right hand man, Mr Dickenson of Wood, stock, had even more to do with it than he had. I am glad, however, that so little exception is taken to the correct- ness of the report as it appeared in your paper. Mr. Dickinson, has, how- ever, over' his own signature in the “Woodstock b'entiuel-Review," declared it to be "a libelous caricature of what took place," and in the Same paper he asserts that "Rev. A. Truax was not condemned by the Methodist church for anything less than right eons living" when the fact is, as he well knew, that no charge of “righteous liv- ing" was preferred against him, and that he himself has not denied the div. inity of Christ. Now there is not much pleasure in going into a contro- versy with a man professedly clothed with the garment of holiness, and yet so reckless in speaking of matters of fact. If there is any man from whom we should expect the truth and nothing but the truth, it is the man who pro- claims to the world that he is not only living under a cantinuous divine inspir- ation, but living as perfect a life as Christ lived. t Every reader of a paper called the “Expositor of Holiness" knows that Dickenson has not only called in quest- ion the Evangelists' story of the imma, culate Conceptipn of Jesus, the Christ, out has used about all the stock argu- ments of Col. Ingersoll to prove that He was not divine, and that the whole story was n. myth emanating in the imagination of the Evangelists ; and of such an iniidel character were his writings that the Methodist Publishing House where the Expositor was pub- lished, on their attention being called toit, refused to continue to print the paper. The Rev. Mr. Truax, whom he alleges was condemned by the Meth- odist church for righteous living, is re- peated to have said at the meeting here, "That Christ's mission to earth was a failure inasmuch as he had not AT BUSH MEETING, Reply lo Mr. Perch. WHOLE NUMBER, 20()7 EMANG & UU’Y Carpets Furniture, SewingMashines, Mr, Fetch asks me how many kinds of holiness there are. Well, there should be only one kind, but unfortu- [lately there would appear to be two. kinds, one real an! the other spurious. The one and that one taught 'by the Methodist church is based on the, prin- ciples of "loving God with all theheart, Em, and your neighbor as yourself." The other, the spurious one, is based on a wild and extravagant theory of divine guidance, embracing no princi- ples, but Simply follow the spirit; and the lives of these people vary so mater- ially, each man being a law unto him. self, that one cannot conclude other- wise than that these people are guided by different spirits, certainly not all by one spirit. Always pleased to show their goods Give them a call, made a single eonvert." These are the men, Mr. Petal) says, who left many frieuds here, &e, kc. I regret to find in Mr. Petch's letter only too clear. evidence that he is tol- lowing in Mr. Dickemson's path in "f- erence to the divinity of Christ-He (Christ) is represented as being, simply "the fhmsst born among many brethren' and Dickenson sgs his natural birth was just as other men's, that Joseph Was his real father"-and that he was afterwards converted and in this way became "the firstborn among many brethren.” I have scarcely the pat- ience necessary to deal gently with men who openly repudiate the.very groundwork of our holy Christianity and Mr. Fetch has not raised himself in the estimation of the christian pub- lie by introducing men of such notorv iously unsound views into the Commun- ity to spread their heresies amongst the people.

The in.. struction as to the signature to be appended came to trand after the paper was printed-EDITOR.] A Farmer's Dcnlh. Oshawa, Aug, IL-This morning Henry Doolittle, a well-to-do farmer, about 55 years of age, living about five miles north from here, and near the small village M Columbus, had his two sons hold by their heads a. span of colts: attached to a reaper while he got on the seat to drive. IN hen the sons let; go the colts sprang, and the driving wheel of the machine struck a stone. Mr. Doolittle was thrown oifar1d fell With his head before the driving wheel which passed over him. His ear was cut off and the skull smashed, and lite was extinct as soon as he could be ap- proached. The meeting has come and gone and if Mr. Patch is satisfied with its re- sults, I am. W , I shall not attempt to follow Mr. Perch in his wtvnderinxs. I see no good purpose to be served in doing so. That the meeting was a dismal failure, except in so far us it. attrmted a great number of people on Sunday, I think few will deny, and who could expect a meeting conducted without proper devotional exercises to be a success. Was it not just of the kind he alleges, "Too much blatant profession and too little righteous living." I hold that the practice should always measure up to the profession , but when it is large- ly profession and but little practice, then it is to be condemned. offer the finest range of ORGANS Ann PIANOS. -ALso--- BERLIN, Curtains AND Yours eee.', A.
