At a meeting held recently of the trustee board of the Anderson church, agrant of $150 was made to the con - treaters' Messrs John Evans, of Exeter, and Roadhouse' of Kirkton, in recom• pease for the collapse which occurred .a short time ago.

'The song of the Raspberry Picker and sweet notes of Musgiteto make the woods echo with melodious voices these days. Numbers can be seen leaving the village in the morning, and after having spent all clay in search of the fruit, return in the eseeing, not very heavily laden with, fruit, the scarcity being caused by the dry hot weather a short time ago. A new insect has appeased on the wheat in parts of .Essex county, and farmers are at a loss to know what it is.

The old and,intorestiig hest,, "Uncle Tom's bin was given under cana S on Tuesday= evening by a company travelling ander Mr, Burtch; The 'attendance was very fair while the characters of Topsy,, Marks and Eva are well worthy of mention, The last farewell scene of Eva in the "Golden Realms' was considered by all present' to be the best that has ever been pro- duced here, and all seem to be well satisfied as it was considerably better than expected. An amusing' game of football came off onTuesday afternoou between. the. tailors who work on the east and west side of main street. Mr. Chas, Snell actedas umpire throughout the game After the ball had gone sailing around the ground for some time,bccause they all seemed anxious to got a kick, it was sent whirling through the Wes tern men's goal, This seemed to make them all the more anxious on both sides and when time was called they went to work in great earnestness and vi9,'or On halftime being called they changed goals, and it was not lung before the west claimed another goal, This rip•. parently discouraged their opponents. for they ininiediately threw up the sponge and retired from the field. The eastern men may be a match for their opponents with the needle, but their knowledge of football is not equal to the ones they have just played with as. they were successful in capturing 2 successive goals. At a meeting of the county board of examiners held at Clinton July 6th, 189I, the following resolutions were adopted: Resolved, that no candidates for professional certificates who will not be 38 years of ago before the 3Ist December, 1897, be admitted to the model schools. Resolved, that the min- imum percentage on each paper be 407° and 60°/. on the total; that marks for bad spelling and bad. English be deducted from each paper in the samo proportion as in the non-professional, and that 5°/° of the marks of the paper be allowed for neatness of work. Re- solved, that we, the county board - or examiners, cannot allow this opportun- ity to pass without expressing our un- feigned regret at the long -continued and severe illness of our respected, ef- cient and general secretary, P. Adam- son, Esq. Our sincere desire is that he may yet, through Divine Providence, be raised up to enjoy health and to sit at our councilboards, that we may reap as for the past twenty years the benefits to be derived from the counsel of one possessing such mature judg went, clear insight and legal ability in. matters pertaining to the educational interests of the county We also desire co express our profound sympathy fur his amiable partner in life in the try- ing circumstances in which she is now placed, and pray that she may be di- vinely sustained in the heavy trial she is now undergoing, and that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to Mrs. Adamson, About 2 o'clock on Monday after- noon the file alarm rang out from the town hall and soon after the heavy peals of the large Bell in the Trivitt Memorial church were heard. The citizens were unable for a, few mo- ments to cell the exact location of the conflagration. But word was soon re- ceived that it was the residence of Mr. John White, Main Street, Editor of the "Times" that was in danger of being totally destroyed. The flames and smoke were seen to be issuing: front the rear , gable of the ;building but. the speedy action taken ' by the inen and the two engines and force pump from the Verity Foundry were • soon playing on that: part of the house where the fire was secreted: One tank contained a strong solution of brine and its effects were soon noticeable on all metals and polished furniture, and the clothingthat was worn by theeo le n P . soon became covered inwhite spots, leaving them with an appearance as if'they had just passed through a snow storm. The furniture and all movables were taken out by willing hands :uid piled in large 'heaps in places of safety Luckily the fire was checkedbefore all was remoy-ed thus saving a great amount of injury to the articles con- tained therein: It is believed that the damage by water will amount to about the same as by fire, the former' being poured on in large quantities drench- ed the ceilingscausing the plastering to fall. As there is no insurance on either, Mr. White will have to bear the 1 ss himself. At the time of the blaze Mr White was absent from home, having' left on the morning train for London to attend the orange demonstration, For along time there has been a rival feeling existing between the mar- ried and single men of the village as to who were the champions in the game, "Baseball". On Friday afternoon the contestants assembled on the grounds, 'and with Mr,;Joseph Davis acting as Umpire, a friendly and interesting game of ball was played which result- ed in an easy victory for the single. Although themarried team is compos- ed of several old•thne baseball players they were not equal to their oponents on this occasion, The result of the match is as follows;— MAnni.LD MEN. R.

The Orchestra was pres- ent and added much glee to the even ing''s amusement by rendering several selections of music. The gathering was brought to a close about eleven o'clock, and the proceeds were then counted, which amounted to over $30.
