of bridal roses. The couple were at-
tended by the bride's sister, Miss Mabel

ray of presents attested to the popu-
larity of the happy couple. The trav-
elling dress of the bride was of brown
with blue silk waist. Their many
friends will join in hearty congratula-
tions and best wishes. They will re-
side on Dundas st., Brantford.
The Boys at Camp
The Exeter Company is taking
everything by storm this year at Lon-
don Cantp. Besides being the strong-
est company they are the biggest in
stature and most efficient in drill. The
annual shoot at Cove Ranges has not
come off yet, hitt they hope to excel
in that also. The weather during the
that. two days was very cold and damp
and not the sort the men like; never-
theless each urau is in the pink of con-
dition and looking well. Since then
the weather has been more favorable
to cainp life. The church parade on
Sunday attracted a large number of
people to Carling's Heights. The 3ird
Huron Regiment forming part of the
2nd Infantry Brigade, the massed
hands in front. under Ser -Major Hec-
tor marched to the place allotted to
them to heat Canon Dann of St. Pants
Cathedral. The weather was espec-
ially fine and the brilliant sun shining
on the dazzling uniforms made an im-
posing sight as they assembled in a
square. The company will be back
home on Saturday after twelve days,
they say, well spent. --Jos BINKs.

The Exeter team drove to Centralia
Thursday afternoon and played a
gave, which resulted in favor of the
home team by a score of 5.4 with an
innings to spare. Seven innings were
played.. Centralia's ground was very
rough and this was a handicap to the
Exeter boys and they were unable to
tnake connections with the ball in sev-
eral instances. Carling for the locals
played an excellent game in the box
and and pulled the team not of several
awkward holes when all looked blue.
('entrali» s new importation. Miller,
who was in the box, pitched fine ball
and showed a thorough knowledge of
the game. The pitching was cel taiuly
the feature, although the playing by
all the boys showed improvement.

chell, ('. Miller. C. Duplan. P. Simp-
son, F. Boyle, 13. Mitchell, H. Mitchell,
R. Smith, F. Kerr. Exeter: C. Spack-

tralia on Thursday went up against a
second nine of Exeter players on Fr i -
day evening on the recreation grounds

ings game. The second team consisted
of G. Anderson, 13. Martin, J. Bawden,
F. Hawkshaw, 1'. Boyle. N. Bellwood,
