The temptation to buy when means of purchase are not in sight is one to be resisted by our farmers. They have had a hard battle to fight in the clearing and purchase of their lands.

Cardigan Bridge Notes. Trade in produce has been good during the past week at Cardigan Bridge, and many thousands of bushels of oats, potatoes and turnips were sent to the market. On Saturday 16 vessels were in port taking in cargo, but on Monday the number was considerably reduced, several schooners having sailed in the meantime. The price of potatoes remained steady at 25 cents per bushel until Saturday after- noon when some of the buyers lowered it to 22 cents. On Monday trade was quiet, many of the farmers refusing to haul at less than 25 cents. Recent advices state that Scotch potatoes are being sent to the American market. If they continue to arrive in large quantities, it will be harder to get paying prices for Island stock that will be bought at 25 cents per bushe', On Saturday last, many of the people « f Cardigan were glad to welcome home Mr. Hugh McCormack of this place, who had been absent at Newfoundland in charge of the cargo of the schooner Jubilee. Mr. McCormack left St. John’s on the Lith October in the schooner, but met with very stormy weather, and for nearly # fort- night was prevented from making a port The vessel had all her headsails blown away and lost jibboom and bowsprit; and only with great difficulty succeeded in mak- ing Sydney, where she has been refitted at a cost of nearly $600. ‘The schooner is owned by Malcolm McDonald, E:q ,George- town, and issailed by Capt. Geo. Craw- ford, who has proved a most c¢ ‘ipable sea- Yan vader very trying circumstances. We learn that the ladies of Cardigan Bridge intend making an effort to collect funds for building a suitable hall for;u ‘lie entertain- ments, lectures, &c., and are organ'zing for a pie social at an early date. ; One of the greatest disadvantages of village and country life is the want of intellectual amusement during the long wiuter evenings. For lack of something of this kind too many macy spend their time unprofitably, and many young people acquire vicious habits because they have little els» to take up their attention No vil'age of the siz? and importance of Car. digan should be without a commodious and couifortable building, where ae could be held; and it is to be hoped that the adies who have taken up this commendab'e project will be vigorously assisted by the whole commun- ity. We learn that several of the merchants have promised substantial assistance towards the building fund of the new hall. -——_o-—-* Pants, Pants.—A epecial line of heavy wiater wearing pants on sale to-night.

City Council Meeting. CONTRACT—THE CON- PAID IN FULL. OUEEN S WHARF rO BE Hi TRACTOR AN emergency meeting of the City Coun- ‘cil, to consider the report of Charles Mc- Gregor. Inspector of Queen’s Wharf, was held last evening. There was _a full at- tendance of members. Mr. McGregor’s | report reads as follows : Cu'rown, P. E. Jstaxp, November 7, 1892. Council, Gentlemen : In the matter of the Queen’s Wharf, I beg to say that since the date of my re port of the 10th October last, the contractor, Mr. Michael Eg wn, hae completed his contract thereon. He has also removed the o'd ware- house to the si'e agreed upon by the Public | Property Committee, and agre eable to a memorandum relative to the removal of the | same, of the date of the 12-h March, Ail of the above works have now been fully certified by me «as ¢ ompleted. 1 would desire again to remind your Wor- ship and Council of the necessity of certain ssary to the proper cquipment o! works nece the wharf : 1. The repairs required to place the old warehouse in good order, and which could easily be performed this autumn 2, The work of dredging for which arrange ments should now be entered into to insure the carrying out of this necessary work at an early date of the coming year. The amount of dredging required would probably be on the northeastern side, about 390 feet, and on the southwestern for 4 dis« tance of 150 feet 3. The present road-bed could be greatly improved by au additional light covering of crushed stone gravel or coarse ashes It has also been suggested that a plank side- walk over the approach to wharf proper, a dis tance of some 150 feet, would greatly benefit foot passengers. Your obedient servant, Cuas. McGrecor, Inspector of contract Qaeen’s Wharf. Some discussion took place as to the ad- visability of paying Mr. Egyn in full, as he had not completed his contract at the spe cified time, and the city had lost consider- able revenue as 4 result. Councillor Taylor moved, seconded by Councillor Hooper, That Queen’s Wharf be taken off the hands of the contractor, Mr Michael Egan, and that his bli of £59f.1 extras be puid, together with the balance of his account of contract amounting tou $1200 Tie motion was carried on the following d-vision : Ayes Taylor, Roberteon, Hooper, Hughes, Hogan.

The following address, which had been previously printed and illuminated, was on Monday evening presented to Mr. 8. F. Hodgson, who, as our readers are aware, is about removing from the Island to embark n the mining business in the State of Mon. tana. The address was read by Mr. W T., Huggan, Accountant and Auditor, in the presence of a large number of the em. ployees, and is as follows : To Silas Frederick Hodgson, Chief Clerk of the M. and S, Department, P. E. Island Railway. Sir,—-We have just learned with mach ree gret that you are about severing your connec. tion with the P. E Island Railway, with which youhave been connected for nearly twenty years, a very large portion of that time filling with marked ability the high aod responsible position of Chief Clerk of the Mechanical and Stores Department. We sincerely trust the —— you are taking will lead to a much more lucrative position than the one you are now leaving; and in say- ing ‘‘Giood-bye,” we desire to convey to youis self, Mra, Hodgson, and family our best wishes for your future welfare. TO MR 8S. F DEPARTURE We are, Dear, Sir, Yours sincerely, J. Unswortu, Superiotendet. W. T. Hvaeean, Accountant. H. W. Anperson, Loco. Foreman, H. 8S. Corriy, Master Car Builder. Tuomas Doy.e, For man Blacksmith. Mr. Hodgson, in thanking his fellow- employees for the kind address just pre- sented, said that after so long a time spent in the ra:lwey service, and the many pleas- “nt associations formed, he found it no easy task to sever hia connection with them and to say ““Good-bye.” But with a view to bettering his position, he had decided to take this step; and although in the future he would be far removed from them, he would not forget the land of his birth or his many friends on the P. E. Island Rail- way. —--- oe The Clarke Inquest. oF ‘“* DEATH FROM NATURAL CAUSES " RETURNED. A VERDICT AN inquest was held in the City Court- room last evening in view of the body of Henry Clarke, the colored man whose death at the Hospital on Sunday afternoon was dealt with by THe EXAMINER yester- day. Dr. James McLeod was the cor- over, and the jury was made up as fol- lows: F H Horne, (foreman) Captain John Hughes, P. P. Gillis, I. Rattentury, Peter Doyle, Thomas Dover and C. H. Chandler. Drs Haxr han, Kelly and Conrcy, Mar- shal Cameron, Michael Hennessey, Theo. L, Chappelle and Policeman Warren were the witnesses examined. The evidence substantiated the story of Tur Examiner yesterday. The medical evidence was to the effect that Clarke's death was caused by typhoid fever, and that any injaries which he might have sustained on the 14th Sep- tember, in no way contributed towards his death. The jury returned a verdict of ‘* death from natural causes.” ——e ee We handle a very large range of cirpets: nl heuse-furtrishings.

TRIBUTES TO HIS MEMORY—BODY SENT HOME FOR INTERMENT. Tue spirit of E. W. Heffer passed away lastevening. Mr. Heffer was the popular representative of the tirm vf Lyman, Sons & Co., of Montreal, and has been a regu- lar visitor to this Island for a number cf years. No more generous, noble-heart2d soul ever breathed the breath of life. An only son and pride of a widowed mother, a light-hearted, genial compinion, a univer- sal favorit: among those who had the pleasure of his acquantance, has passed away forever. The type of physical man- hood, in the prime of life, in the full blush of promise, in all the strength of youth and vigor, he has been called to the land where sorrow and death cannot enter. While we, his friends, who have ever welcomed his coming here as we welcome the spring and the sunshine, bemoan the loss of a beloved and cherished friend, what must we think of the sorrow and despair of his poor widowed mcether. May the consolation of being the mother of such a noble, gener- ous son, comfort her inher sad afil ction, and may the recollection of his open, manly nature, long linger in the hearts of the be- reaved friends he has left behind. The sad details of Mr. Heffor’s illness and death are as follows : About a month ago he was attacked with a pain in his ear,forwhich he consulted a specialist at Halifax, and was advised by him to remain there for treat- meat. Not attaching due importance to his physician's advice, he left Halifax to visit some cities in Cape Breton, intending to return to Halifax as soon a3 ke had fia- ished his work there. Feeling better, and thinking that he would be all right in a faw days, he left Cape Breton fur Ckarlotte- town, where he arrived on Tuesday, Oct. the 25h. Oa the following Wednesday, while still suffering from a painin his ear and considerable deafness, he went to Summerside on business for his firm, and returned to Charlottetown on the following Saturday. He then calledin medical ad- vice, and was thought to. 30 be improving under his physicians’ treatment until Jass Tuesday evening when he was seized with a severe chill and vomiting, which continued all Tuesday night. From that time until Ssturday morning, when wicontciousness super- vened, the pain in bis head continued to increase, and his physicians saw only too plainly that meningitis had set iv, and that death was only a question of a few days. Telegrams were sent his mother avd friends in Montreal, giving them notice of the dread consequences that were feared. Yesterday evening at 7 o'clock, surrounded by many friends in tears, poor * Ted” breathed hia last. Everything that could possibly be done for him by skillful madi- cal at enlants and by his kind hostess, Mrs. Davies, was faithfully carried out tu the last moment. His body was taken this morning in the express, accompanied by many commercial friends, to his home and bereaved mother in Montreal, FROM A FELLOW-TRAVELLER, to A TRIBUTE It is hard to realize that ‘‘Ted” is gone to the quiec haven of us all—that we have been robbed of his genial presence—his princely good fellowship forever. He that embodied in his rare personality evary attribute antithetical to sorrow, gloom and silence, does not die and leave with us the comp!ete realizing sense of loss that is our legacy. When the cold finger of the des- troyer touches a comrade of stern mien and serious lifa, the twinkling eye does not glaze quickly; an echo of laughter lingers and memory fondly clings to an image whose cutlines wiil not fade. It may be siid without fear of contradiction that “Ted” had no enemies; on the other hand he had friends innumerable. His manners were irresistable. He did not draw men to him by repelling other men. He was not possessed of those strong convictions that lead men to eminence against a host of opponents. He conquered by kiadness, he shone by virtue of generous traits. During his long and serene career cn the road he sowed the seeds of happiness with a hand that knew not stint. At last he e uld look forth through those merry, hon- est grey eyes of his upon a fragrant, bloom- ing garden of friendship planted with gen- tle deeds and tended with affections. “Ted” was a goud traveller, an excep- tionally good traveller, and his universal popularity on the road and cff was due to his splendid personal qualities. ‘*Ted” was always a gentleman iu conduct, as he was a gentleman in feeling; he loved fun provided it was pure fun—he lent his sunny presence to the feast constantly, but he never stipped beyond the limits of tem- perate indulgence. In his domestic rela- jations he was the same cheerful, consid- erate, true-loving son that he shewed him- self to be cutside the home circle. The name of **Ted” will be twined with the garlands of immortal friendship; wherever he was known it will occupy a shining place in the hearts of his fellow travellers, who all possess a fountain of sympathy for his dear old mother and his sad death. Comrades, comrades, ever since we were boys, Sharing each other’s sorrows, bearing each other's joys; Comrades when manhood was dawning, Faithful, whate’er betide, When trouble or sorrow assailed us “Ted” stood true by our side.
