The inspectors made a raid on Mr. King's place and found two partly empty beer bottles which had been left over from the night before, which, on testing, was away over the proper test. King claimed it had fermented over night. Mr. Lannan of the Union was found not guilty on the same raid. J. Bedford of Hotel Bedford was found guilty and fined $50 and ,costs.

LIVE STOCK M4RaETS Toronto, Sept. 6th—Fair runs of both cattle and sheep were received by the local yards yesterday. Tliiiiltitipment of other classes of stock, icularly hogs, was light. Choice .cattle are about steady with last week. Several loads of good butchers' changed hands at $8 per cwt. This, however, was about the top price. Gopd cows sold freely up to $7, but a large number of the bulls shipped ip remain unsold. Canners and cutters are steady. Stocker trade is again very dull, several hundred animals being on the market at noon, and with no buyers in sight made future prospects for that class of stock look rather lifeless. Good milkers are still In demand, the choice animals selling up to $100. The big increase in the consumption of milk during the Exhibition puts life into this market. Calves are steady at #5.50 to $11. Heavy animals are not wanted, selling about $1 to $2 easier. Spring lambs are off 25c on last week's prices Choice stuff, after culling out the poor ones, bringing up to $8.75 Hogs remain unchanged. Only a few small lots were handled yesterday. Light shipments and the usual Monday market made the packers indecisive.

A pretty wedding was solemnized Thursday morning. at the home of the bride's parents, Mr, and Mrs. W. J. Blair, Wolfe street, Goderich, their youngest daughter, Edith Irene, being united in marriage to George James Currell, of Toronto. The bride was given away by her father, but was otherwise unattended. She was prettily attired in a dress of white silk and carried a lovely bouquet of cut flowers. The ceremony, which took place in the parlor beneath an arch of smilax, ferns and asters, was perform- ed by Rev. J. E. Ford. Toronto papers record the death of Mr. Duncan J. 'Cassidy at Los Angeles, Calif., as the result of an automobile accident. The deceased was a native of Goderich, a son of Mr. Isaac Cassidy. He was thirty-nine years of age. The remains were brought to Toronto and buried from the home of Mr. Cassidy's aunt, Mrs. D. McGillicuddy. A notable visitor to Goderich the past week was Mr. James Tabb, of Bowman - vile, who in his ninety-third year is straight and smart and looks, indeed, more like a man in his seventies, Mr. Tabb has been visiting his grandsons, the Messrs. Tabb, in Goderich and Col- borne township. He was born in England in 1822 and came to this country 10 1847; so that he ranks with the pioneers of Ontario. The prize winners in the Field Crop competition of the Teeswater Agricul- tural Society were as follows:—David Grant, Robert Keith, W. McKenzie, Alex. McKague, W. T. Moffat, R. P. Scott, C. J. Thompson. At the home of Mr. Earnest Rozell, Tuckersmith, on Wednesday afternoon, of last week, Miss' Hazel Rozell was united in marriage to Mr. J. Roy Plum - steel, third son of Mr. and Mrs. Henry plumsteel of Clinton, by Rev. S. J. Ailin. , Death took place on Thursday after- noon, Aug. 26th, at the home of Mr. and Mrs. R. A. Goveir, of Mr. Wm. H. Archer, a well-known reside>i;it of Hul- lett, who had been in failing health tor the past year and during the last four months has been seriously ill. He was born in Hullett and was a resident of the 4th con. His wife, who was Nettie Pugsley, predeceased him in 1007. The first load of new wheat brought to Goderich this season was delivered to Mr. Alex. Cooper on Monday, Aug. 23rd, by Mr. Wesley Fisher, of Col - bourne. It was a very fair sample and weighed sixty pounds to the bushel. The price paid was $1 per bushel. The farm in Usborne on the 4th con„ known as the James Moir farm has been purchased by Mr. Albert D. Eth- erington, a neighbor. The Moir farm contains 250 acres and its purchase makes Mr. Etherington one of the largest land owners in the township, giving him 850 acres of as fine land as the sun shines on. The friends throuehout the county of Rev. J. Greene, of Clinton, will regret to learn that his illness is of such a sev- ere nature that he has been compelled to give up all work. During his long life of over four score years Mr. Greene has enjoyed the best of health, this being probably the first severe illness he has ever had. One of Goderich's most popular young ladies was married at noon on Sept. 2nd in the person of Jessie, youngest daugh- ter of Dr. H. I. and Mrs, Strang, to F. H. Hewson, manage! of the Imperi- al Bank, New Liskeard. Rev. George E. Ross, pastor of Knox Church, per- formed the ceremony. The young couple left for an extended tour through the States before returning to New Liskeard. Miss, Pearl Husband of Ingersoll, and formerly in charge of the dressmaking department of Couch & Co., was mar- ried at New York on Sept. 1st, to Ray Rumball, of Clinton, who is the mech- anical superintendent for the Bell Tele- phone Company. They will reside in Clinton. 1VIrs. Mary Stewart, Seaforth. Ont., announces the engagement of her daughter, Lillian Pearl, to Mr. Rod Lawson, son of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Lawson, of Hullett, the marriage to take place quietly in September. J. J. Wright, an old Goderich resident formetiy of "The Point T'arm," died at Hamilton, on Sunday, in his 83rd year. The body will be taken to Goderich for. burial. The Canadian prisoners in Germany will be allowed a shilling a week instead of per day, as first intended, because the Imperial Government considers it is absdlutely necessary to treat British and Canadian prisoner alike.
