Lovers of the beautifol in nature should take a trip to the country now. A few miles from Berlin along the banks of the Grand River the woods present an enchanting picture. The late September days end in cloud and chill. There is a storm and after it come a few days of cold winds, and then a calm, clear night and a frost. Anâ€" The broad, thick leaves of the bickâ€" @ry hold their deep green to the last ‘The walnut, now almost gone, takes on & coppery hue. The foliage of the oak grows crisp as under a sudden breath of heat, and its mingled red, green and brown is like a delicate drapery. The dogwood long ago has lost its bridal well of filmy blossoms, and now yields glowly its soft and pleasing green. The softâ€"tinted ash, the greyâ€"leafed cottonâ€" wood and sycamore, and the slowly changing beech add each its own exâ€" quisite shade, but all yield in beauty to the maple, our own glorious Canaâ€" dian maple with its brilliant crimson and gold which makes it conspicuous ae far as the eye can reachâ€"the hardâ€"wood maple, .with its delicately poinicd leaves, which take on a new beauty every morning. First the light green gives place to a soft yellow and to the hue of palished gold then the brighs gold softens day by day into a shade which seems to have caught the very substance of the fall moon‘s tays, and at the last there is a changing has which mingies with the red and brown and grey of other trees in an almost inâ€" expressible beauty. At length there comes a day when even the dullest soul feels that this wondrous scene is too ethereal to last. There is a reminder of death, an ominous stillness in the air, a soft haze on dale and streoam, the clear water looks smoky. The sun is obscured soon after midday and deâ€" elines, ‘a great red coppery disk in a+maseâ€"of cloud.. That night comes rain,‘ and all is over. Death has :;llmed own. A few days storm and enâ€" other, and in fortyâ€"gight hours all naâ€" ture is transformed. Therv is a beauty which is almost unearthly. We walk in the manyâ€"colored woods and look up into the sky which seems deeper, clearer, more inflnite, if one may say so, and thoughts crowd upon us to which no earthly language can give utâ€" terance. ‘ _‘The.

Thompson the Choice. 1# C. CoRNELL The William Tell Hall, in which the meetings were held, was profusely deâ€" corated, with flags, bunting, maple leafs and mottoes. The platform looked very pretty. In the back ground was hanging alirge photoâ€" gravure of our late Sovereign Queen Victoria, over which was the moito, "Gone but not forgotten," while on either side to the front were large paintings of King Edward VII and the Premier of Canada, Sir Wi {rid Laurier. Some of the mottoes vere, "Ross, Ontario‘s most Distingu shed Son‘"; Shortly after the arrival of the special train from Galt, which was about half an hour late. the delegates gathered in the convention hall, and were called to order by Dr. Adam Thomson, the President of the Associâ€" ation Dr. Thomson stated that the object of the meeting was to select a canâ€" didate for the Local Legislature, who would redeem the riding, and other matters which would require imâ€" mediate attention. He took the opâ€" portunity to cxpress to the delegates his thanks for tze honor they had conâ€" ferred upon bi.a by electing him as President of thoe Association. He told the convention tha; â€"every delegate will have to do bis level best to win the election, and urged immediate organization throughout every division of the riding. _ The adjourned Convention of the South Waterloo Liberal Aesociation was beld in New Hamburg on Thursâ€" day afternoop, to select a caadidate for the Legislative® Assembly, and a mass meeting was held in the evening at which half of the people ‘in that conâ€" servative town of New Hamburg cou!d not gain admission. The chief speaker of the evening was Hon. Geo. W. Ros», Premier of Ontario. The meetings were very harmonious and enthusiasm was at its highest pitch. The choice fell upon Dr. Adam Thomson, of Galt, a a comparatively )onng man who is an excellent speaker and a hard fighter, and will be a worthy foeman to the best that can be ,put up by the Opposition. . "The Swing of Victory is in the Air"; "Remember Ross," "Laurier, Ross and Victory;" ©Nova Scotia came our way, so will Ontario." Mr. J. B. Dalzell, Galt, Secrotary of the Association, read the list of deleâ€" gates, who responded to their names, and every division was fully representâ€" ed. . Resolutions of confidence in the Laurier and Ross Governments were unanimously â€" passed _ after which nuinipations were received. Robt. Gilholm, Galt, moved, and Menno Beav . New Hamburg, seconded, that Dr. Adu:: Thomson, Galt, be the candidate. The candidates were each allowed to address the Convention. Mr. Josiah Hallman said he enjoys a hard fight, and his past experience in his municiâ€" pal contests in â€" Wilmot Township, where he hae come out victorious after exciting and hard contests has given him a desire to go up higher and win greater battles. He trankly said he would like to represent the riding in Parliament, and nothing would give him greater satisfactios at the present time than to be the instrument in the hands of the Liberal pirty to redeem the riding. of South Waterloo. He would work vigorously for Dr. Thomâ€" son if be was the candidate. . Mr. Hallman‘s address was loudly applaudâ€" ed. C. N. Christner, New Hamburg, moved and M.

THOMSC CONVENTION OPENED THE NEW PRESIDENT NOMINATIONS TION: ECTED 1 as chairman eeting. The Premier was given a magnificent reception, and Miss Ethel Winn preâ€" sented him with roses, too, and was suitably rewarded. The Premier beâ€" gan by assuring Mr. Valentine Stock of a victory in Perth, a pleasant Valenâ€" tine. He expressed confidence in the judgment of the Liberal party in seâ€" lecting a candidate. He was glad there were no differences of opinion or diâ€" vision in the Liberal ranks. ‘The Libâ€" eral party bad no differences; they lived in peace with all men and woâ€" men. Tory papers said there were difâ€" ferences and quarrels in the Cabinet. Conservatives knew what differences were: Sir Mackenzle Bowell spoke of a nest of traitors. There was only one nest of traitors, and it was not in the Liberal party. There were no qifferâ€" ences in the Cabinet, no differences in the Liberal party, and no occasion for differences. They were agreed as to what was wise for the Province, and were one as to how that should be carâ€" ried out. Mr. Ross spoke of his posiâ€" tion as a Canadian and a Liberal, pointing with pride to the record of the party in its broad lines of policy. He asked what man in Ontario had any substantial grievance against the Libâ€" eral party. It was true some Liberals might have been disappointed in regard to appointments to office. Had the farmers anything on which to ground m complaint? Had they been negligent 4n providing education for the farmâ€" ers‘ son=? It might be true that they did not found the Agricultural College. Mr. Whitney said that Sir John Carâ€" ling first suggested a college. Sir John bought ; =‘t= for a college at Mimico, but before he had as much as laid one stone on another the people withdrew their confidence from his party, and the incoming Government sold the site and purchased a new one at Guelph. Suppose Mr. Carling first conceived the Idea of an Agricultural College, still it was the party that took it up and brought pmcg_cal results that was enâ€" titled to the dredit Who first thought of the steam engine, the telegraph or the telephone? It was no us? wasting time talking about that. If Mr. Whitâ€" ney wonted for his party the honor of having first thought of the Agriculturâ€" al Co"lege let him have the honor. All he said was that in the practical workâ€" ing out of the college the farmer had no cause for complaint. Mr. Ross critiâ€" cized ~the course of Mr, Whitney in suggesting that tv portfolio of Agriâ€" culture should be attached to one of the other+departments of Government. An industry in which there was investâ€" ed one thousand millions of dollars was of sufficient importance to entitle it to a separate Minister of Agricultureâ€" it wanted the strength of a whole man and of a capable man, and it had such a man in Mr. Dryden. (Applause.) New Hamb Oct.. 17. â€"The erals of aonfinw toâ€"day ufl: ed an able candidate to lead them in the approaching campaign, and toâ€" night at a rousing mass meeting listenâ€" ed to an inspiring and statesmanlike address by the Premier of Ontario, Hon. Geo. W. Ross. The Premier dealt with Provincial affairs on broad lines, tracing the influence of Governmental action during the past thirty years on the industrial and social life of the community, going back of petty comâ€" plaints, and demonstrating the sweepâ€" ing assertion, of which he challenged disproof, that no class oi.tho communâ€" ity has any substantial grievance against the Government. He made efâ€" fective use of the victories won by Canadian agriculturists and manufacâ€" turers at Buffalo and other great Exhiâ€" bitions as an evidence of‘@dvancement He clearly l!t forth his policy of deâ€" velopment and expansion in new Onâ€" tario, and appealed to the electors to give him an opportunity to carry out the great projects he has ingqugurated. Dr. Thomson of Galt, the candidate seâ€" lected at toâ€"day‘s convention, proved Iimself to be an exceedingly good platâ€" form speaker, showing a thorough grasp of Provincial affairs and an orâ€" iginal and convincing manner of exâ€" pressing his views. The weather was by no means favprable, the afternoon being cold and showery, while toâ€"night a fall of soft snow made walking and driving unpleasant, but the attendance both at the convention and at toâ€"night‘s meeting was large and representative of the entire riding. ‘The Premier was met at the station by the excellent band of which Hamburg may well boast. ‘The band again escorted him to the hall this evening. Another musiâ€" cal feature of the meeting toâ€"night was the unusually good work of the Hamâ€" burg male quartette, Messrs. Bechtel, West, Gelger and Hostetler. â€" The Premier quoted the increase in exports of agricultural products as eviâ€" dence of advancement in agricultural science; he also cited Onâ€" tario‘s standing at the Panâ€"American Exhibit‘on, where out of 21 medals for horses, cattle, sheep, swine and chees Ontario secured sixteen. The only goa medal awarded for cheese was taken by the Province of Onjario. We had four million cattle, the United States fortyâ€" four million. We went into competition with these immense herds, and this was the result. If we, with a populaâ€" tion of two millions, could secure these prizes, gold, silver and bronze medals, money prizes and honorable mention, it showed that somebody in these 30 years had been active. The Government did not take all the credit. They had inâ€" telligent people to deal with. If we The Duke tn;!

He congratulated the people of Ontario on this; he congratuâ€" lated the agriculturists on the splendid honors they had won for Ontario. It would be an advertisement for us in the old land, and would give us more confidence in ourselves and our methâ€" ods. If the Conservatives were in powâ€" er they would certaimly have mentioned ods. If the Conservatives were in powâ€" er they would certaimly haye mentioned these things. * Had those engaged in manufacturing industries any grievance ?, The orâ€" ganizer of the Conservative party, Mr. Wright, had said that the labor laws of Ontario were among the best in the world. He had no complaint against our factory laws, or laws for the protection of the working men, women and girls, or against the adminstration of these laws that was at all serious. ‘The most intelligent class of workingmen in the world were to be found here. He said this for the same reason that he said the agriculturist had no grievance, beâ€" cause when n:e laborers of Canada came Into competifion with the laborers of other lands they won awards.

A Double Celebrationâ€"Goiden Wedding of Mr. and Mrs. Isaac Krupp and Marriage of Their Daughter to ~â€" _ Mr. W. O. Menger. A On Monday, the 14th inst., the home of Mr. and Mrs. Isame Krupp of this village was the scene of a combination of interesting and important events. The day was celebrated as the fifticth anniversary of the marriage of the highly respected old oonfb. Their family numbers seven ¢f whom al}, with one exception, gathered homé to express their aftection for their parâ€" ents, and all were sorry that distance prevented the remaining one from joining in the day‘s proceedings. In addition to this interesting event, Miss Ella, the youngest daughter, and the last of the family at home, was married to Mr. W. O. Menger, Charâ€" tered Accountant of Hamiltor. . The Rev. Rev. Samuel Krupp, of Morriston, uncle of the bride, o&ohud. The ceremOny took place at the noon hour in the preserce of the family and a number of the nearer relatives and friends. After the ceremony the party sat down to a sumptuous wedding dinner. The bridal pair left in the afternoon to visit Rochester and other Amwerican cities after which they take up their residence in Hamilton. They take with them the best wishes of their many friends who hope thoir career may be as useful and successful as that of the parents who were being honored on their wedding day. A pleasant surprise was sprung upon the parents immediately at the con clusion of dinner, when one of the : vmâ€" ber arose and read to them an addrees from their family, and two ofâ€"the daughters presented each with a pair of beautiful gold spectacles. ~The father although taken unawares, reâ€" plied, and in well chosen words thanked them for their expressions and tokens of affection and confidence. It pleased him, he said, to see his family gathered about his table, but now they are to be left alone and it is very probable they may never again all meet there until they meet to carry one or the other from the home. _ He hoped that eventually they may all meet again where there will be no parting. The following is the addrese: New Diftdee, Oct. 14, 1901. By Divine favor have you been perâ€" mitted to travel life‘s journey together until you bave toâ€"day reached the fiftieth anniversary of your marriage. Thus have you been graciously blessed as but few of the great mass of humanâ€" ity are blessed. â€" Just fifty years ago toâ€"day you enâ€" tered upon the duties of houseâ€"keeping alone. Just fifty years after that day you again begid these dutias alone. On the former occasion you had life‘s battles before you and you have fought them well. Toâ€"day you have life‘s beaviest battles behind you and you now enter upon that stage of rest and comtort which is the just reward of all good and faithful labor. We, your children, who have toâ€"day assembled at the home to commemorâ€" ate that important évent, wish to offer you the assurance that now in our years of maturity and better underâ€" standipg we appreciate the noble teaching, the Christâ€"like example with which you have ever striven to inâ€" fluence us for our present and eternal benefit. As you proceed along this journey of life we earnestly hope that you may long retain the health, the vigor and the strong faculties of your youth. To assist you on your way we offer you these spectacles which we trust may serve to brighten your vision and enable you to see more cleatly your way onward and upward ever higher and higher,. The material of these has been selected as being emblematiâ€" cal of the imperishable. They are made of God‘s most favored metal, for we are told that God selected gold with which to pave the streets of his abode. Drar PaArRENTs A very pretty but quiet wedding took place on Wednesday afternoon at the residence of Mr. Henry Stuebing, Weber street, which was attended by the immediate relatives and friends of the contracting parties. Rev.

Miss Grace Kimmel, sister of the groom, was bridesmaid, and was handsomely atâ€" tired in white muslin with lace trimâ€" mings. Mr. Arthur Stuobing was the beat man.
