The celebration orthe Queen'e Birthday
in Clinton thia year was a departure from the
eustora that has heretofore prevailed, from!
the fact that While the usual ports and
amusements venial progress, religious meet -
nage were also going On at the mine time, both
reeeiviug a large share of attention, Although
the day opened out cloudy and cool, with the
appearance of rain, this did not prevent a
goodly number from spending the day here.,
The ammiemente of the morning were held on
the Agricultural Show Uround, and embraced
the following games:—
seceossz.
A ;rand lacrosse match was played be.
tween the Shamrocks, of Kincardine,: and the
Dauntlesa, of Clinton, For the tirst hen
time Clinton team got the -worst of the game,
thelatI being kept near the Clinton goal, but
an excellent defence kept the ball out. The
playing of Bern Mearkal, of Kincardine, was
much applauded as he several times led the
ball up thefield, outstripping the borne team;
„for the next ten minutes the game was evenly
contested, no dangoleue shot being made on
goal. A short rest was taken owing to a foul,
after which the ball was placed ; a hard
scrimmage occurred in the goal of Kideardine
boys, but no goal, and irons then until the
end Clinton had the best of the game. Every ESTATE
tittle the ball went towards the hotnelpal it
was sent right into Kincardine goal by Bay '
(Capt,) or Macdonald and at five minutes to
twelve the ball got through the visitors goal,
but it wee declared he goal by their umpire.
A good deal of talk was •new going on and
again the ball was faced off and in about five
minutes the Clinton boys scored a goal; the I
match resulting• in a victory for Clinton, as'
Kincardine would not play any longer. Much to the day's amusement by the excel-

The Quben's birthday was celebrated here
large crowd. of people were present, though,'
no doubt, there would have been more, only
the• weather threatened rain. The foot ball
match on the agricaltural grounds, 'between
the Seaforth and Mitchell players attracted a
good many. The game was an animated one
and lasted until'after twelve :o'clock, The

Shortly after noon a stampede was made for

where the races and other sports were an-
snounced to take place. (awing. to the heavy

concluded to go on. The first part of the

race there were.tbree entries, viz: J, Erwin's
"Honest John," W. Backer's "Jack, on the

This rade was taken in three straight • beets
by Peter Afaqk,',. "Honest John" being
drawn after the firatimat. •

with the consent of all parties they were al-

the thee heat Den was withdrawn, leaving
the race to the other, horses. The Y made a
very interesting race, but "Elsa Graw':' led off
each. time, and kept her .plaee well; scoring
three first, •but "McIntosh" did not let her
have much One to play. 1( 15 said that the
