Of Interest to Teachers
From a circular just issued from the
Education Department we take the
following items, which will be of use
to teachers: The High Sqllool Ent-
rance and Public School Leaving exam-
ition for 1896 will begin Tuesday,
June Di, at 8.43 a in. The course of
study prescribed for the examinations
is that given in the Revised Regula-
tions, excpt that physiology and temp-
eranse take tne place of botany at the
public school leaving examinstions.
Any misunderstanding on the part
of candidates regarding the requite-
inents is to be dealt with by the loyal
bo ird in settling results, The revised
Regulations do not, as formerly, call
for the presentation of book work in
!writing, drawing, etc., at either the
High School Entrance or Public School
Leaving exams. For the latter exam-
ination, book work, if presented by
candida.es, is to 1s3 taken into account,
as last year, in view of the special pro-
visions announcr d for 1898.
James Vincent Cleary, Archbishop
of Kingston, who died on Thursday

Wedding Bells
s
Tuesday, Feb. 1st, Joseph'
church, Ashfield was the scene of a
very pretty wedding, when Nellie,
daughter of the late John Sullivan,
was united in the holy bonds of mat-
rimony to Mr. Nlichaet O'Connor, of
Walkerton. As both are deservedly
popular, there was a large attendance
at the Nuptial Ma..s, which was cele-
brated by our esteemed pastor, Rev.
N. Dixon. Although the day was
stormy and cold the sun did not cease
to shine from early morn which helped
probably to make the young tieople
brighter if possible for the occasion.
The bride was becomingly costumed
in a suit of garnet velvet, trimmed
with white satin and fur, with toque
to match, and was attended by Miss
Kate O'Connor, sister of the grootn,
who was similarly attired, with large
ac
bl' k velvet hat trimmed to match
The groom was ably supported by Mr.
Jere Sullivan. Two little nieces,
aliases Marie Sullivan, and Margare
M. Dalton, acted as maids of honor;
both looked sweet in suits of cream
serge and lace, with cream silk hats
and carrying large boquets of bridal
roseain their hands, while little John
5 Dalton and John P. Sullivan wero
the pages and performed their parts
very nicely. As they marched up the
aisle to the alter. the "Wedding
March" was ably rendered by the
organist, Miss Hattio Noble,and
during the mass, Miss Maggie Lamber
tus and Misr; K. Sullivan, sang a duet
which was pleasingly effective. After
service at the church was ended, the
bridal party with their immediate
neighbors and friends, Rev. Father
Dixon arid the choir, (of which the
bride has ben a member from child-
hood,) (hove to the residenee of the
bride's mother, where a sursptuous
repast was in readiness. Soon they
were ushered to the spacious dining
room, which was beautifully decorated
with festor ns of evergreens and flowers.
After justice had been done the many
good things provided. Rev. Father
Dixon spoke at some length on the
qualities of the bride. Reeve Dalton
cOnsidered Mr. O'Connor a usky as
well as a happy man. Gaoler Griffin,
of Godericb, wished the young couple
long life, prosperity and every happi-
ness. Telegrams of congrate)atione
were received from Chicauo, and 4ew
York. The presents were useful and
numerous as well as handsome, end

TESTI MON! A L
Lucki.ow, Feb. 18th, 1898.
R.. J. Canieron, Lueknow. •
This is to certify that in the last
week in December 1897, Mr. Cameron
put one of his puinps in my wel4, which
is one of the deepest in this section,
being 63 feet deep, and I must say it
worked to perfection, and in every
sense satisfactory. , My little girl, 5
years old, could pump it with ease.
After this test we put on 18 feet more
piping on the pump and the pump still
forced the water out of the top with as
great force and with as much ease as
with the 63 feet. Then we placed the
18 feet horizontal and I believe we
could hey° forced the water almost
any distance and al there was only 11
inches cf water in the well, I consider
this test one of the best, and I would
say, anyone wisning a good, servicable,
strong pump, casaoc do better than
buy one of these pumps.

A Close Call !
The Result Still in Doubt.
Both Parties Claim a Victory.
The result of the Provincial elec
tions to the Ontario Legislature on
Tuesdey last, resulted in the two pol-
itical perties being so evenly divided
as to cause each of them to claim a
victory. The result is still in doubt
and it may be some days yet before the
exact results of the polling will Le
known. The Reform papers say there
are 47 Reformers, 44 Cons( rvativ. P, 1
Patron and 1 Independent elected,
while the Conservative papers claim
there are 46 Conservatives and 45
Reformers elected, and two meats still
in doubt. There a.e 94 seats in the
Idegislature but the electi .0 in Russell
