"Many Men, Many Minds," but all men and all minds agree as to the merits of Burdock Pills, small and sug ar-coated. • Hood's Sarsaparilla has the largest sale of any medicine before the public. Any honest druggist will confirm this statement. The census enumerators have just about completed their arrleous task, audit is supposed that the population will be greatly increased. Bissett Bros, who have been busily engaged re -tinning the roof of W. H. Verity & Son's Blacksmith shop, have completed .tee same, and from all ap- pearances have succeeded in making a first-class job. We notice in looking over a number of our exchanges that several places are preparing to raise the Sag on. the 25th of May,which was given away by the Empire. Exeter seems to be in the background in this respect. Mr. V. E. Bailey, of Buffalo, will be at the Commercial Hotel, Exeter, on Friday May .8th, for the purpose of pnrciiasiug horses that are sound and in good cundition, from 5 to 10 yearn old and weighing about 1200 pounds. On Sunday, May the 24th, the mem bers of Plymouth Lodge, No. -G8, Sons of England Benevolent Society will at tend divine service in the Triv,itt Mem- orial Church, when a sermon will be de- livered by the Rev.

Special psalms, hyrnns and lessons and offertory in aid of parish funds. Mr. Baldwin is a nephew of the Bishop of Huron. Friday last, Arbor Day, was observ- ed in rhe Exoter Public chooI by the teachers and children. They made good use of their time in planting a number of trees and flowers. etre be- Iieve that Exeter can boast of having the neatest grounds of any Public School in the county, the praise of which is given to the teachers for' their untiring efforts of adorning the same. On Monday while Mr. Joseph Baw den, Sr., was out driving, he let his horse stand on the side of the road while he went into a tlotise on business when the animal became freightened and ran away. Coming along the street which leads west of F. Knight's liquor store.and on arriving opposite the same it made a dash for the building, litter - ally demolishing the vehicle. The horse escaped with ve,ry slight injuries: On Monday evening Mr. T. Scott sang a Asannounced in the ToTownTownHall 'a to a number of about 90 healers. He has been here for some time trying to organize a singing class, and it is ful- ly bolie,ved he has at last succeeded. He is an excellent singer,ar,d those who take an interest in such canuot do Det- ter than patronize him. We also un - r derst<thid that he intends organizing. a class in Crediton: One day hist week ii•hile Clinton, 5 year old son of Mr. Thomas Sweet, south of Exeter,. -was walking across a large cul'. c i 1 situated on the railroad, he accidentally slipped and fell to the bottom, breaking his arm between the wrist and elbow, Itis elder brother, who n is with him at the time, mats;; ed to got him home, when medical aid Was summoned ,and the injured limb properly fared for.

A large meteor was seen to sail slowly across the sky from east to west a snort distance from the earth It was a pale greet, color, and, despite. the fact that the sun was shining brightly, the brilliancy of the strange object was quite noticeable. Had it appeared at night no doubt the effect would have been considerably more surpris ing. Perhaps few persons are aware of the fact that next year is one of very significant celebrations. It is the twenty-fifth anniversary of Canadian confederation; the fiftieth anniversary of the establishment , of responsible government to the country, the one hundredth anniversary- of the convocat ion of the first parliament of Upper and Lower Canada; the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the founding of Montreal, and the four hundredth an- niversary of the discovery of America by Columbus. On Wednesday morning about 2 o'clock, a. m. fire broke out in a stable oelonging to J. W. Browning, situated on William st, The building has not been occupied for some time, and it is thought to be the work of an incendary who was anxious to see a blaze. The fire alarm awoke the citizens who hur- ried to the scene and proceeded to tear away the board fences which were. au - joining the building, and try and stop the fire from spreading any further. The loss will not be a very ,heavy one, as it was an old building having been built a number of years ago. An Elocutionary Entertainment will be given in Drew's Opera House on Friday evening May 81h, by A. C. Monnteer, B. E., of London, and mem bers of Exeter Class.

They have been practicing in Middle sex. It seems the way they work it (forthere are two or three) they call to see if they can find storage room for one piano and a boarding place for one of them for a time so that they can advertise their instrument, and for every piano sold while the agent is with you, you receive $10, besides pay for boarding the agent. The proposal looks square enough, but don't you consent. They will ask you to sign an agreement to the above effect, which when the piano is delivered turns out to be a perfect order for the instrument. The piano is only worth. $100 and the Baine is a huge fraud. If these agents call on you. turn them away. The Mer'hanics' Institute held their annual meetind for the election of offl-, cars• on Monday evening last. There was a large attendance of members and much interest shown in the past year's work. A large number of Vol- umes have been added, and the better class of books such as History, Bio- graphy, etc., show a decided gain over works of Fiction. 300 more volumes were issued than in 'the preceding year. The following officers were electedt—President Rev. S. P. Robin son; Vice President Mr John a McCal- lum; Treas. Mr. D. Johns; Secty. Mr. T. A. Brown; Auditors Messrs. Brown and McCallum. The. Directors were elect- ed by ballot as follows: Rev. Mr. Mar- tin having a majority of votes cast and Mr. W. D. Weekes standing sec and. Rev. W. M. Martin, Drs. Lutz and Rollins and Messrs. Weekes,.

Several' members bore testimony to his efficient and careful service of four years. After some discussion as to the composition of 'the Book Committee the meeting closed at 10 o'clock: One of the Most remarkable feats in the building line is now being accom- plished at the northeast corner of Ran- dolph and State streets, Chicago: Al- though it has been > less than two months since the work' was begun on the Masonic Temple, the foundations are already completed, and before pee ple realize it the columns will be extend- ed up into the air. The hole in the ground has been covered with a wood-: en roof, and but few are aware . that wort: is going on eontentiy, day and night, with three shafts of men, who work eight hours. Thua • three days' work is done in one. The general be- lief is that the roof was built in 'order to keep the ground from freezing, so work could be begun early in the spring. By that tirne the building will have caught up with sulci passed the big ]hotel which is going up so rapidly nt the northeast corner of Dearborn and Jackson streets, '.I'ime has been so carefu'ly calculated that the con- tractors for the various branches of the work have accurate knowledge of the time they are 'o begin work. The materials have been ordered and a large .portion of them is either in Chicago, on the road of ready to be shipped It is difilcnit to believe, but it will nevertheless be proved, that by Oct. 15 the building will bo under roof and under stca'it: Messrs.
