Clothing f Our quiet yillage has been in a state of excitement for some time owing to some miserable miscreants who are prowling:around the streets at night destroying personal property' On Thursday morniug about 3 o'clock they set fire to an old house, situated on Huron St., west of the railroad track, owned by Mr. Mark Meakins, and occupied by Mr. N. Peterson as a stable, in which he had a cow, valued at $45.00, that perished in the flames. The fire was discovered by one of the neighbors, when he ran to the scene and tried to liberate the animal, but +tvas.unable to release her, the -re hav- ing made a great headway, in a few aninutee. No doubt Mr. P. will find:this a severe loss.

If the culprits,contin- ue their fiendish acts and •the proper persons are found guilty, there is every reason to believe they will be prosecu- ted :and receive the severest sentence that can be passed upon them, Ken Boost Filched, On Tuesday night last the hen roost of Mr. Wm.

Welsh, he met with an accident whits(' might have terminated seriously, it appears he diad one of the hind feet of the, beast up when it made an attempt to lay down, throwing the young matt to the floor, and catching one land under- neath bis foot, tearing• it in a frightful condition, while anotlier foot was resit• ing between his legs which if it had conic on top of h,im,instant death would quired their use. 1 am pleased, to state that our xil. lags commercially remain- m its 'ns- ual solid condition: '1 w o or three min- or failures have occurred, but it is <a source for general congratulation that the bulk of the grade. remains in the hands of those whose past record make their names synonomous with cautious n ti and safe n ess. e o t I � g,. In regard to our village affairs I might say that we have an assessed value of nearly half a million, or in more exact figures about $468,000. Onr bonded, debt is: a little over $18,- 000 with an annual interest charge of $108(1. The amount of our sinking fund to meet these bonds soon matur- ing is a matter for grave regret being but $1000. Our population has stood the strain of the last fewyears well, y >s w 1, ant now stands about 2000. I have been much surprised and pleased to learn that the actual amount of capital in circulation, or better the annual volume of trade in our village under most careful estimates is found to be not less than one and three quar- ter millions of dollars, This fact in connection with the well known con servative tendencies of our merchants should cause general satisfaction and restore confidence in the minds of those who have partially lost faith in Exeter and its possible future. It is a matter of regort'that 'unnee- cessary friction has arisen between thetBoard and the Village Council. I sincerely trust with the rest of. the Board that all cause for disagreement may be soon removed and that we may find in the Council not only firm friends but faithful allies in all schemes that. already show themselves to bo for the general welfare of the village. In conclusion permit me to express my gratefulness to those who have so kindly stood by me during my term of office and also to offer my earnest hopes that the future may have for us more sunshine than the past, and that all those who have felt it their duty to unite with us by a sense of patriotic regard for the welfare of the village may be impelled to during the coming year. May He who has commanded us to acknowledge Hier in all our doings, guide and bless us during the incom ing year and may He direct and pros- per all our plans that are laid to secure the better mental or material progress of our people. All of which is respect - submitted. Signed J. Gums, President. THE WISE SAVANTS Tell us that Rheumatism is a blood di- sease; that it can be cured only by a remedy which works through the blood And yet, if you have the darting pains of Rheumatism in .muscles or joints, try a little of Clark's Lightning Lini- ment. It will go direct to the seat of pain and relieve it at once. There is no waiting weeks and months until the disease can be -attacked through the blood. This seems to be contrary to scientific claims, but it is true that Clark's Lightning Liniment will cure Rheumatism. Sold by druggists; price fifty cents.

During the past year we have held ten Meetings with an average attend- ance of about nine members out of a registered list of 36. This noticeably small average reflects not favorably on the loyal spirit of the absentees who might now have stood. higher in their own esteem had they given a more generous support to the few who have been the active spirits of the Board during the past year. There is much room for congratulat- ion in the abundant success which dur- ing the past season crowned the efforts of the Board in seeking to establish one Butter and Egg Market as a distinct- ive feature of the trade facilities of the village. I am pleased to say that its suceess so far has won even the praise of its opponents and through its agency quite a number of new as well as old faces have been drawn to. Exeter as their most advantageous market cen- ire, I am also pleased to beleive that present obstacles will soon be removed and that the Board will be enabled as during last season to use their energies in making it a still more marked suc- cess At' our meeting in July last a reso- lution was passed placing the matter' of Higher Educational facilities for the. village to the position of first place in the aims of the Board. Keen watch- fulness in the matter is necessary and the first opportunity should be seized' to secure all' that is desirable in this respect. The matter of waterworks has been also .under consideration and a com- mittee appointed to place the necessary preliminary information before the Board. The result of such enquiries so far show a probable cost of about ten thousand dollars. Whether present action in this direction would be wise. is a matter fairly open for debate - and should receive early attention from the Board. 'rho stock sales conducted during the past season proved desirable and effective in drawing buyers and sellers to our village and under a more favor- able fiwnieial position of the Board should be ]node a rcgnlarly establish- ed trade facility of the town under the most approved system of management. During the early part of this year the severe re loss in Board sitatained a sc e the removal of their late President, R. IT. Archer; Esq,, from, the village.
