BRUSSELS,
The following report of the Labor
Day celebration in Brussels is fur-
nished us by the Brussels Post : Last
Monday the loyal citizens of Brussels
and surrounding towns and villages
desirous of obeying the Statutes of
Tier Gracious Majesty Queen Vietoria
took advantage of the. excellent pro:-
gramme
ro=gramme advertised on Vietoria Park
in this town, turned out in goodly
numbers and spent an enjoyable day,.
The weather wee beautiful and the.
Committee had a good supply of
seats arranged so that everybody
had a full view of the field.
A FOOT BALL MATCH
came first on the programme be-
tween Walton and• Bl y th for a purse
of $11.. The opposing teams repre-
sented more quarters of the globe'
than the places mentioned, but in
this the pot could not call the kettle
black, and as they put up a well and
evenly contested game, the specta-
tors were well suited. Blyth was
first to score, blit their success was
soon discounted by Walton winning
a goal and thus the figures stood un-
til the • allotted hour was up, and
other sport billed came on.
BRUSSELS AND THE "UNIONS"
faced' each other for a base ball
contest about 11 o'clock, the visitors
going to bat first, They rolled in 3
runs in the lst innings largely owing
to the inability of catcher Zinger, of
Teeswater, to hold the ball. I+bur
more came to their credit in the 2nd,
and 3 in the 4th, the 3rd, 5th and
6th being blanks. , This gave the
"Unions" a total of 10 when -tine
was called for dinner. Jack and
Will. Grewar did the twirling and
A. Boyd, of Harriston team, caught
after the 1st innings and did his
part capitally. D. C. Ross was run
into by H. Mcllardy at 1st baso and
was laid off for several innings
owing to the collision using him up.
.Alf, Williams pitched for the
Wroxeter team and our boys made
close connection between the bat
and ball a number of times, but a
few of them were nabbed at the
bases by a little too daring base
running, as the "Unions" won't
'allow much "monkeying" with
Paulin, Kaake and Ross caring for
the three bags.. Brussels only had
five innings, scoring 3 runs and
receiving two coats of calcimine.. A.
Cousley umpired the game and dealt
out even-handed justice. At one
time Brussels' nine used to lather the
boys from the North nearly every
trip, but the want of practice in the
former was very noticeable, although
they did a lot of rattling good ball
playing when the strength of the
"Unions" is taken into account.
Following is the score :

TEE AFTERNOON SPORT
was entered upon with a good deal
of gusto and at times the excitement
rose to fever heat. Harriston
"Browns" and the Goderich team
took their places on the diamond
shortly after 1 o'clock with two
leading purposes before them, 1st to
gain a victory over their opponents
if possible and 2nd, to have a slice
out of the $25 offered for the con-
cluding match. The County town
boys went to bat but retired in the
1, 2, 3 order. In the 2nd, . 3rd and
4th innings they rather annihilated
Moore's left hand curves, and Hamil-
ton, of Palmerston, was substituted
and did better work, although the
score erept up even after Angus
tried his hand at twirling in the 8th,
so that when the 8rd Goderich man
was out in the 9th innings they hacl
18 runs to their credit. Ball at lst,
Stewart at 2nd, Hartley in left field,
Lennox in centre and Boyd behind
the bat did exceptionally good work
in their respective positions. Doyle
was in the box for Goderich and hie

AR ATTEMPT WAS MADE
to break the tie in the Football
match of the morning by a half
hour game, but although hot shots
were made and every effort put
forth by each club to win another
goal it could not be done, so the
purse was equally divided, 0,50
going to each team. A good many
would have liked to see the play ego
on for another half hour, but time
would not permit.
THE .LAST WRESTLE OF THE DAX
was between the vietorous "Unions"
and the "Browns" and they ran the
9 innings through in good style, al-
though it was a foregone conclusion
from the start who would win. Mc -
Hardy and Sanderson' wereat the
points for the former, with lYleGrath
substituted for A. Paulin, The
fielders did not have a great deal of
work as it was largely a pitcher's
battle. Harriston had the first
innings. Their stick work was
light and four whitewashes were on
the programme. Their total score
was 8. The "Unions" ran tip 9 runs
in four innings but here they stop-
ped, as Hamilton did some extra
good pitching and the Wroxeter -
Gerrie combination did not want to
exert themselves too much. They
did not take their 9th innings. The
match was sharply played and
heartily enjoyed by the crowd, who
waited until the closing shot. The

Weak and Nevous
'Whenever the body has been weak-
ened by disease, it should be built up
by Hood's Sarsaparilla. Read this:
"Abort two years ago I suffered with a
very severe attack of Inflammation of the
bowels. When I began to recover I was
in a very weak and nervous condition, and
suffered intensely with neuralgia pains in
my head, which caused loss of sleep, and
having no appetite, I
Became Very Thin
and weak. Fortunately a friend who had
used Hood's Sarsaparilla with great bene-
fit, kindly recommended me to try it. I
did so and aperfeet cure has been effected.
I am now as well as I ever was, and I
would not be without Hood's Sarsaparilla
in my house for anything." MBs. G.
