We doubt the only object of our boys was to have a game, but the result,. which was 4 to 1 in favor of Seaforth made them feel rather sick. Seaforth players were ; J. and W. Fairley, t). and W. McDonald, • Willis, Hender- son, Rankin, Nurse, Stephens, Gow, Culock and Ewing. Clinton ; Mc- Callum, Agnew, Grant, Thompson,• Pendergast, McTaggart, Gray,Cooper, Boss, Whitmore and Doherty. The first goal was taken by Stephens for Seaforth in. a few minutes, the.second was also given to Seaforth after a great struggle at Clinton's goal, .Ross now put one in for Clinton, Seaforth got two more, one by W. Fairley, the other by Master Ewing. In the beginning of the game Whitmore, one of Clinton'stswiitest forwards, got his ankle badly sprained, and is not able to be around yet. Evangelistic 11Ieetyngs.

LARGE GATHERINGS, INCREASING IN- ' TEREST AND GOOD RESULTS. The evangelistic services being conducted by ,Rev D. O. Crossley, as- sisted by Prof. Canfield, are rising in interest and power from ' night to night, and the indications are that hundreds will be brought to Christ ere the meetings close. Last' Sabbath was a day long to be remembered by many. In each ser- vice souls were seeking the Saviour. Upwards of fifty yielded their hearts to Chris4 during the day. The meet- ipg on , onday evening was good,but that of Tuesday night was wonderful. The altar.'end front seats were crowd- ed with anxious seekers,among"whom were husbands and wives and many young men and women.' Revs Liv• ings'one and Edge, with their people are joining heartily in the work, and will no doubt reap a large harvest as the result of the revival. The meetings this week are being held in Rattenbury St. church. Mr Crossley preaches nearly every night and always conducts the after meet- ing. Mr Canfield takes charge of the first balf hour of song, and works in the audience in the after meeting. They are both good singers and their services are much appreciated Mad highly successful. Upwards of one hundred have al- ready been seeking the Saviour. On Sunday morning the serviced in Rattenbury street church will be con- ducted by Itevs Crossley and Living- stone, and in the evening by 11fr Can - AFTER MANY YEARS.—Ten years ago two young men were schoolmates in Almontetogether. They separated, oue going east and the other west. The one who went east became the Rev Sohn Wilkie, a Presbyterian missionary to India, and the one who went *est was- Mr A. H. Manning, lawyer,and the popular Deputy -Reeve of the town of Clinton. From the time they separated they never again met each other until last week, when Mr Wilkie was lecturing here, and MO 'Manning bad the pleasure of li:itening to his old schoolmate, and • on Thursday evening, while Mr Man- ning was lecturing at Blyth, one of his hearers was the Rev J. Wilkie,and allusion was made to the fact that it was just exactly ten years since they bed separated on their devious paths in life. • Mr E.
