We have known Mr. Hastings for some years and eau beettesting as to his usefulness as a cit- izen in a needed and much patronized business. Though he handles much "cheek" his own is not larger than the average and would never dull the edge of a keen. razor from the amount of "brass" in its composition. We wish Mr Hastings success and feel sure he will deserve it wherever he may reside. . . LOCA.L JOTTINGS. - - 100 pieces oi print for 9e,e, regular price 12e, at the Big Bankrupt Store.

An aggregation from the County of Lam btou ete7ling themselves the Forest cricket Club, composed of players from, Petrolia, Strathroy, Wyoming, Sarnia and Forest, visited our town on Tuesday to play a friendly game with the Exeter Crieket Club. Owing to the rain which fell dining the morn ing wickets were not pitched until 1 o'clock p, nt., when Exeter having won the toss sent the visitors to bat. The onlsr man to make a stand was Mr. Munroe who scored, 12 runs before be- ing bowled. the whole team being dis- posed of for 37 runs. The Exeter bow. ling was deadly, McDonell taking 5 wicaets for 16 runs and Elliot 5 for 21, the tatter succeeded in performing the "hat" trick taking the last three wick- ets with three consecutive ball. No time was lost in finishing the first in- nings for Exeter, the boys appareutly thinking they had a snap became over confident and when the last wicket went down at 4,30 the total only reach - 35 thus being 2 behind, Rev. Mr. Me - Cush bowling extremely well. No hone having been fixed for pulling stamps of course it was assumed the game would be finished without delay, bat no, Captain Totten gave forth the judgment that his men must leave by the 6 o'clock train for Clinton where they were to play the next day. Every inducement was offered to coax the visitors to stay and finish the ''game and after considerable talk two of them op- ened their 2nd innings, gickets fell rapidly but the batsmen were very slow coming in, thus losing much time and when 4 wickets were down for 15 runs, shortly after 5 o'clock, the aggre- gation marched off the field to the un ter disgust of the Exeter team, the clericals forming the adyance guard. Whether it was that Captain Totten would not get enough to eat or drink in Exeter or that the Clinton atmos- phere was preferable we know not, but our boys say that it was the most mis. erable sneaking trick ever witnessed on a cricket field, and that the only reasoe existing in the captain's mind was the absolute certainty of defeat. The visit ors claim a victory but we doubt their right under the circumstances. Lawn Social. The Young Peoples' Society of James Str-et Methodist Church, will give a lawn Social on Monday evening next, on the beautiful grounds of Mr. D. Braund, Exeter North. The lawn will be illuminated with Chinese lanterns, etc. Exeter Orchestra in attendance. Admission 15 cents. Everybody come! Orangemen Attention. Owing to the -unfavorable Weather on Friday evening of last week the Wednesday last was the 24th aunt- versary.of Confederation. Exeter was allowed to pass over quietly, and the town was like a place deserted, Oni. people going to the neighboring vil- !ages In search of amusemement. Our Gun Club visited Clinton, the cricket club to Londenwhile our athletes and baseball players went to Goderich, St. Marys and other places. However, a large number were in attendance at the strawberry festival in Centralia while others who were fond of boating wended their way to Grand Bend to enjoy the refreshing breeze of Lake Huron. The weather was all that could be desired, and it was not until a late hour that many of them return- ed. An amusing incident occurred here during the windstorm on Friday. It appears that two of our citizens, who are neighbors, began talking about the gale, when one of them sale: Your plum tree has blewn over into my lot; and the other replied that he had no such a tree bearing fruit inhis garden. This at once started an argumeet, and a small deposit of $1 was put up, and a third man was scut to se,e what kind of a tree it was. After he had been absent about half -an -hour, he re turned with a small branch, on which were a beautiful sample of plums that were taken off the tree that had suc- cumbed to the wind. Upon showing it to both parties, 1VRO were anxiously waiting his return, he declared that the former person had won the bet. We would say to the latter gentlemen, who is not a gardner, and probably not a goon judge of fruit before it is -ripe, to study the produce of his farm a little more before melange:such firm assert- ions the next time.

Upwards of 35 of his children and grand children assembled to spend a few hours of enjeymeet, it being his 70th birthday. When they had all be come comfortably seated and were amusing themselves in chat he was taken by surprise when the followieg address and presentation was made to MAU:— DEAR FATHER.

Heaman on his premises which might have caused its death. The an- imal had been eiitched to the buggy and tied to the door of the stable when it became frighteeed and eommenced pulling backward until it had unhing- ed the door, after which it started around the garden in a frantic manner and several times tried to make its es- cape over the fence and on coming to the big gate made a plunge over it but was caught by one of the pickets which ran fully five inches into its body be tween the front legs. It is wonderful how the, animal escaped for had it en- tered half an inch further instant death would have been the result. The ani- mal will likely recover. Terminal lineation. Mr. J. T.

The baseball tournament held on Wednesdayelast ori Athletic Park was largely attended in the afternoon,about $60 being taken in at the gate. The Attendance at the morning games was comparatively small, but although the club realized a handsome figure. Six clubs entered On the evening preted ing, St. Marys were drawn to play Lu - can at 9 o'clock, whiehlhey did, suc- ceeding in defeating their opponents. The first prize was won by the Stars of London, the second. by St. Marys and the third by Delaware. As the Dela- wares were satisfied with their money. St. Marys and the Stars of London, played for first money and contrary to general expectation the stars won. Our boys did not play as good e game as they have played, while the Stars were in excellent condition, It was a pitch- er's battle, .both pitchers being very effective, but St. Marys are not as good at the bat as the Stars. St. Marys made some very Costly errors, this very much accounting for their defeat. Grea; interest was centered in the Gun Club Tournament held in Clinton on the ist of July. Gun clubs were present from Goderich, Seaforth, Exe- ter and Clinton, We give the total each team made: Clinton 63; Goderich 58; Seaforth, 55; Exeter, 48; Clinton winning the first silver cup and God - each whittling the second silver cup. When this wassfinished an individual match was hell, he which there were 28 entries and prizes were awarded to 18 of those who competed in the sport. The first prize, a silver medal and the championship of Huron conuty, was won by G. Hinchley, bf Clinton. Amongst the others who, won prizes are the names of D. Johns, 1 lbof tea; Bissett, hair cut and shave; while Mr. E. H. Fish was successful in get- ting a pair of rnits for the mail smen making the lowest score, he having broken 1 out of 12. Although. tire Clinton team have the honor of being the champions of Huron County, this prize was carried away from here some time ago by one of their men while competing in a similar match. We have not forgotten how they appreciat- ed the honor of seeuring the laurel at that time and were much overjoyed to think that they had a Member in the club who was capable of bringing home a trophy, if it was for the lowest score.
