The church was nicely de-,. corated'with pink and white, the col- ors of the alliance. The motto of the Y. P. A., "For the Glory of God and the Good of man" was printed on the colors which gave a beautiful effect. On Thursday evening the meeting was opened by Rev. M. L. Wing, P. E., of Berlin, Mr. J. 1-1. Holtzman welcomed the delegates' on behalf of the local Alliance and church, while Mr. II. h Aller, 14 P P.," welcom e the friends on behalf of the town and ricbing Rev.

They are, Robert, of Mani- toba; William, of Hensall; Andrew, of Detroit; Mrs: George Case, of Usborrie; and Miss Jane Laramie, of. Roust -ill. The deceased was possessed of a 've- rnarkabie kind and gentle disposition and was one; who prominently adorned the Christian religion. The- funeral service'was held in the Presnyterian church, of which she was a member, on Tuesday and was .cor ducted by the pastor, assisted by Rev. G. Jewett. The funeral to the Rodger - vine cemetery was very largely attend Brinsley. The Lawn Party at Mr. Geo. Lewis' on 'Wednesday, 25th Sept„ was a de- cided success in every particular. Nev- er before, on any other occasion were the people or St. Mary's church, who took an active part, more thoroughly satisfied with the whole affair. -On this occasion the workers worked more harmoniously than ever. All the ladies, except a:trifliug,few, adorned and lad- ened the tables with such.bouquets and danties, as ladies only can prepare,and waited on the tables with so much at- tentiveness that we cannot speak too flatteringly of them. The night was favorable <rnd although a little windy yet in that;poet-like home surrounded so much by nature's work, the wince was/stayed. .-, The; programme was rendered by the Coughlin Family, of Parkhill , «• Irish comic songs were enthusiastically received each time with encores. The family orchestra. gave selections which were appreciat- ed by all, 'a;ncrthe:solos and duets by Misses Nettie and. Lexy were good. Little. Bell was a treat in herself. Her performance on the stage was wonder- ful. "The Naughty Kid" was well riiven but words: fail to describe how she and her partner gave the cake- walk. Rev. Ware. Johnston, a former pastor, who was a very welcome -guest among his old parishioners gave a short but pointed address. The auto- graph quilt, with over 150 names, was on exhibition. Many admirers were grouped around to see how expert in fancy .work. were the most `:popular !girls of St. Marys church, consisting sof the following:—Misses Annie Lewis. . Addie Lewis,ine,."Lewis, Gert-i.e Lewis,' Nellie Hamilton, Emma Hamil- ton, Susan Cnnnino'hani, Malissa Cun- ningham, "Rachel .Gilbert, Lizzie Gil- bert, Gorgeda Scott; il-bert,;Gorgeda:Scott; Alice White, Eva Corbett and the following: women' of the church:—Mrs. Oscar Gilbert, Mrs. Albert Hii,rlton, Mrs.' Robt. Sceili, Jr., Mrs. Wm. Sceili, along with a few popular and willing workers not be- longing to the said church, namely, Misses Neva Dale, Maud Weir, Edith Keowyn, M. Gilbert, Minnie McEwen and Rachel Elliott. To the latter ladies the quilt committee consisting aff:Mrs. John Lewis Mrs. Abbot Lewis, and Mrs, Geo. Lewis wish to • give their heartiest thanks for their help- ing band. Our girls need to be con- gratulated on their neat and well made quilt. ; Mr. - Geo. Dale, principal of Brinsley school,very kindly volunteer- ed to auction the quilt and had he not stated such we would not have believ- ed that -it was the first attempt. Mr. Wm. H. Hodgins, ,of 12th con. Mc- Gillivray, purchased the quilt for $17. The proceeds of the evening ,went to- wards the minister's salary but the money: derived from the names and sale of quilt, Main all, our prominent '- ' young ladies intend investing in an extensive library, which they hope will be the means of enlarging the minds of the old and of assisting ,in moulding the minds of the young.

Johnston and J.Bell were eikt driving Thursday morning, they met with an accident which gave both of them a rather severe shaking. At the railway crossing the horse shied at the white fence and they were thrown out, Mr. Bell receiving injuries to his left leg as to be entirely unable to walk; Mr. Johnston has very little use'of his left arm, but escaped further mjnry. The buggy is smashed up con- siderably; the horse became tangled up, and did pot get away. Rus§eldale: Delft visited this com- munity Saturday and claimed its vic- dm in the person of Mr. Geo. Balfour. The deceased was one of the oldest res- idents of these parts, being SO years of age. He was among the early set- tlers of this country and therefore, like them, passed through many hard- ships in the pioneer coantry. By his death the community feels the loss of one who has been faithful in all his duties, obliging to his neighbors and therefore respected by all. Groderich: Samuel Finnigan, who had heed committed for insanity, was before Judge MaSSOn-On ,Monday to an- swer to the complaint. After hearing the evidence defendant. was allowed bail, his three brothers, wbo agreed to t,,ekelebarge of him, -being his bonsmen for one year. -Thursday James F13-' nu Was before Hisqlonor on a ,charge of being insane and dangerous, he having been committed from Dungannon. Several witnesses were examined, but Judge Masson remanded the defendant back to jail, for a future examination as to his sanity. Mitchell: A very pretty event took place at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Isaac Hord, north ward, Wednesday, it being the marriage of their eldest daughter, Ida, Gertrude, to Herbert J. McNaughton, L.D.S., of Penn Yam, N. Y. To the strains of the wedding march, played by Miss Vincent, of Hamilton, the bridal party entered the drawing room, which was ,a,rtistic- ally decorated with flowers, etc., for the occasion. Assistants now -a -day seem to be out of the question and in likemanner this estimable young cou- ple were mademan and wife, by Rey. Mr. Stafford, of Paisley. , St. Marys: Mrs. Hiram Smith, an esteemed resident of Nissouri died suddenly at her home on Sept 21, aged 72 years. Mrs. Smith had been in fail- ing health for some tirae, but her death was unexpected. She was found sit- ting in her rocking chair, at bedside by her granddaughter, Miss 'Hart, about six o'clock Tuesday morning. An hour before Miss Hart had given her medi- cine and had lain down. When she again entered the room she found that her grandmother had died in the in- terval. Heart failure was the cause of death. Deceased leaves a husband and family of five daughters and three Seaforth: On Friday night Mr.Robt. Bell, who had moved into the Clarkson residence, was aroused from his peace- ful slumbers hy hearing some one mov- ing about the house. -Mr. Bell got up and lighted a lamp, but on seeing the light the would-be burglar decamped. I3efore retiring Mr. Bell had forgotten to lock the front door, so 4:that his mid- night visitor had no difficulty in ob- taining an entrance. They had not becotne.settled in their new home, and as this was the fiist night they had slept there, the supposition_ is that 'the intruder was pot aware that Mr. Bell was in the house, and thinking he would have a quiet arid undisturbed investigation, stepped in at the open door. Although there were a number of burnt matches lying around, noth- ing was apparently taken. Goderich tp.: A pretty but quiet wedding took place at. tbe residenee of Mr: Robt. Thompson, of the 16th con., Wednesday, when his daughter, Miss Ida, became the bride of Mr. J. A. Fulton, of Valley Centre, Mich. The ceremony was performed at high noon by Rev. C. R. Gonne, M.A., rector of St. Paul's church, Clintori, and was witnesised by only the immediate rela- tives. The bride was given away by her father, and was charmingly at- tired in a gown of white dimity' and white lace and baby ribbon, and car- ried a shower bouquet of white asters and ferns. Miss Mabel Bingham, a neice of the groom, who was brides- maid, ,ware a pretty gown of blue mus- lin with white lace and ribbon and carried a boquet of cream asters. Mr. Harry Thompsranbrother ottbe bride, roonasman i`or 1000, bus just been issued, by the Ontario Department of Agriculture, and in addition to 0 record of the a's-orlc and progress of the Institutes, com- prises a, large l.YrlOullt. of q practical in- formation in connection with every branch of agriculture. '. A number of important changes have been made in the system by which the usefulness of the Institute has been materially hrareased. In future; auun� ilei of the' Institutes will t v] ,hold their annual meetings gs < L the nearest Fruit Experiment Station, or in, t good commercial orchard, which. will give the member the advantage of witness- ing expert demonstrations in hon t-c1t r - 1 aural operations. Special attention has been gi'yen to the subject; of poultry,, experiments', having btcn con l ustEd under L the joint " auspices Farmer's of the Tnstitute and the Ontario Poultry Association,, Among the specialists who addressed the meetings on the subject were Prof. W. R. G xlahaen, :Manager of the poul- try department,.-0.A.(J., Prof. A. G. Gilbert, of the OttetwaE: erimental Farm; ;P z], J. L. Meyer, of` Kossuth, grief, G. S. 'Cottrill, of Milton. The address es. were . illustrated by practical dem- onstrations in the killing and prepar- ation of fowl Inc market in accordance with the most desirable methods. This. feature': which was inhch ciz appreciated;.. will be continued. Tlie lecture work in connection with the Horticultural" Societies has been transferred to the Farmers' Institute and thirty success— ful meetings have been held. There has been a notable increase in the number of IVomen's Institutes, thirty-two of which are now inopera- tion, holding monthly meetings. A highly popular feature has been the excursions to the Agricultural Col- lege under the auspices of the Insitnte,, of which rnarty thousand farmers took advantage. A good deal of attention was devoted to the Provincial. Winter Fair ancl as. a result of the endeavors to promote the attendance of Institute , members they were present to the number of 1518. A' special program was provided for Institute workers,and among those - who delivered addresses were, Hon.. John Dryden, Dr. James Mills, Prof. I. P. Roberts, of Cornell, F. W. Hodson and Prof. G. E. Day. The work of the Institute has been extended into New Ontario where number of gatherings were held. A. new departure, from which the most, favorable results are expected, is the-- establishment of Seed Fairs, held early - in the year, which has been done in several localities. 11Ilich,has been done to disseminate information regarding cold storage, which has been a popular topic at the meetings. ._Practical in- struction:has been afforded in the pro- cesses of refrigeration with the aid of the cold storage plant at the Agricul- tural College. Sltperhitendeut'Creelman has been appointed Assistant Secretary and Ed- itor of the Association of Canadian Fairs and Exhibitions, in which capac- ity new, opportunities of forwarding the work will be ` resent . presented. The year's record is a . highly sattis- factory one from every point of view. The total membership Farmers', of Farers'..In- stitutes at the end of June, 1001, was 20,387, showing an increase of over two thousands.
