BU81Ng86 CHANOS.-An important
transaction has taken place where-
by W. P. Sanderson, formerly of Dun-

enters the circle of Dungannon busi-
ness men. He has purchased the
store of Dr. Bice, with the stock of

COUNCIL PitoePlt -re. - Although
nomination day is not tar away, there
is very little talk of council matters.
It is understood that Mr. 8tothers,
having reached the blithest position in
municipal affairs -that of warden of
the county - will retire, and that
Deputy Reeve Hunter will aspire to
the reeveship. Whether he will have
any opposition is doubtful. io West
Wawsnosh it looks as if the present
council might be re-elected by accla-
mation. Reeve Bailie has guided the
affairs of the township safely through
another year, and if he is re-elected he
ought to stand a good chance of the
wardensbip of the county for next
year, as he is now one of the Trading
members of the county council. He
is deserving of the bonor and would
fill the office with becoming dignity.

friends of the children gathered at

feature of the entertainment. The
