The Dominion voters' lists will be revised about June and it behooves all to have everything prepared. See that every name not already on the list is put there, and those who have this year qualified have them all put on. This preparatory work can probably be done, best while the recol- lection of all that the elections revealed is still fresh. In every case the Provincial lists should be carefully compared with the Do- minion lists. Concert. The social under the auspices of the Young Ladies of James-st. Meth. church, which was held in the lecture room on Friday ev'g last, was an enjoyable and profitable affair. There was a good turnout and the refresh- ments reflected great credit on the ladies. After all hacl partaken of the edibles, a pro- gramme consisting of music, recitations, readings, &c., was presented, which ap- peared to be thoroughly enjoyed by the audience. Proceeds $75.

There was a very true exhibit of horses. \'le would like to reueive a copy of THE DUES of March 17th and 24th to complete our file up to date for this year. A fernier from Blaushard writes ; "Can you give me the cost of salt per ton, at the Exeter well." $2.25 per ton., we believe. The Stephen & Usborne Ag'l Society's spring show, which was held at Exeter, on Tuesday, was not as successful es usual. Ladies, go to Jas. Pickard's for your dresses as they have the latest styles in dress material. The bill of fare for the corn festival will be found in another column. This will be a novel entertainment and should be well attended. The millinery openings of Messrs. Sam - well & Pickard and James Pickard, took place on Tuesday and Wednesday, and were successful. A drive through the country will con. vince one that there will be a good yield of fall wheat this year, if later the frost does not damage it. Messrs. Snell & White have purchased from a gentleman in Montreal, a small sized pacer. The horse is of sorrel color aurl well proportioned. If the fine weather which we have had during the past few weeks, continues, the farmers will be able to commence their spring work vary soon. The roads in the village and throughout the country are dry and in good shape for traffic. As the spring has come in early, we may expect an improvement in business. The streets of Exeter presented a very lively appearance on Friday, there being hundreds of people here from Zurich, to hear the trial of the supposed burglars. An endeavor was made on Friday to photograph Messrs. Colquhoun & Dow's entire horse "Freedom." He would not re- main quiet tong enough to secure a negative. Building Operations, . Building operations for this season throughout the village seem to have taken' a boom. On a number of streets contrac- tors are to be seen excavating and getting ready for the erection of buildings. Build- ers say that already more contracts have beer let this season than there were all last year. Besides several large public build- ings there are to be erected a great many fine brick residences. It is eatimated that the• cost of new structures this year will amount to from $30,000 to $40,000. Something Remarkable. It is a somewhat strange coincidence that the same tools which were used in perpetrat• ing the burglary at the station here some years ago, were brought into requisition for the burglary of the store of D. Steinbach, Zurich, a few weeks ago. The former rob- bery oacnrred about four years ago, when the tools were taken from the shop of John Mattice, Exeter North, where Mr. Holbein had been working. In the latter case the tools were taken from Mr. Hess' carriage shop, -Zurich, where the same Mr. Holbein 'was engaged at time of burglary. While above is strange, it is not at all improbable. The Zurich Robbery. According to the remand made on the let inst., the prisoners supposed to be impli. oatect in the Zurich robbery, were tried here an Friday last before magistrates, Rollins and Willis. Mr. B. McKenzie, who was arrested at Crediton, on Wednes- day, as a supposed accomplice, was arraign- ed, who after pleading "not guilty" was dismissed. The three men, H. Weaver, A, Sipple and W. A. Zent, who had been in en:,t•.dy for the eight days previous, were let ought utto the court. In the case of Mr. "David dealt to every one bread," 2 Sam., vi, 19. CORN cams.

This is the best sort of spring tid- ings. Educational sermons were preached in the Methodist churches here =Sunday last. The pastors exchanged pulpits in the morn- ing. The attendance was good and collec- tions liberal. It is stated that the Toronto Standard, which was run during the election, will appear in the course of a few weeks. It has taken longer than was expected, to complete arrangements. Ladies, don't fail to see the prints and muslins at Jas. Pickard's. Robt. Emslie, of St. Thomas, sou of Mr. Emslie, of Exeter, and of last year's Toron- to's, has signed with Hastings, Neb., base- ball club for the corning season. The team is one of the strongest in the North-western league. Arrangements are fast being completed for the celebration of the Queen's Jubilee. on the 24th May. The members of the com- mittee are working hard, which, with the co-operation of the citizens, the affair will be a grand success. Sereral towns throughout the country have passed by-laws prohibitingcows run- ning at large in the corporation. We un- derstand that a petition to the same effect will be handed to the Exeter council at its next meeting. Horsemen, we again wish to remind you that we have the largest assortment and best horse cuts in western Ontario. It will be to your advantage to examine them. Prices low, consistent with good work. All orders filled promptly. Some weeks ago, it will be remembered, we made mention of several parties seclud- ing themselves with game roosters and en- gaging them in a mill. One of the violaters of the law was taken before a magistrate, the other day, and fined $$15 and costs. Mr. E. H. Fish's barber shop has been renovated, the interior re -painted, re -paper- ed and otherwise improved. To look at his window is a sight not very often seen. And to cap it all, E. H. or his assistant can give you a hair cut or a shave not to be sur- passed. The usual street -loafing practice is again in vogue. Before it developes to greater proportions would it not be well to have the practice abated ? It is not only aggravating to ladies, but very often displeasing to gentlemen passers-by. Will the police please take this hint. Ladies, over 200 pieces of embroidery to ichoose, from Sc. up, at Jas. Pickard's. A young son of Mr. John Westcott, while playing with a little sister on Monday af- ternoon accidentally fell against a sharp atone, lacerating his forehead severely, the gash being about three inches in length and penetrating to the bone. The wound was immediately attended to, and the little fel- low isdoing well. Clerks and others handling cord had bet- ter be careful in tying up parcels. Mr. Edward Harding, miller, of fort Stanley, cut his finger the other day with the lord while tying up a bag. Blood poisoning set in, and his arm became black and swelled to twice its natural size. In order to save his life the arm had to be amputated, While two young men from Usborne were driving down Maisest., on Sunday after- noon, their horse took fright and ran away. In its course it ran over a rig which was preceding it. The occupantswere thrown to the ground, but fortunately were not in- jured beyond a few bruises. The horse was captured after running nearly a mile. The buggy was not injured.. The Dashwood debating society met the Sodom society at Stanlake's mill on Wed - t Council meeting to night. The band played several .pieces of music upon our streets Friday ev'g. While two men of Brussels were scuffling, the other day, one of them died in the fall. The Biddulph township speing show takes place at Granton, on Tuesday next, 19th inst. The merchants of Heiman have signed an agreement to close their respectiveplaces of business at 7 o'clock, p. in., during the summer months. The dust from the streets on Tuesday, (fair day) was excruciating. If the dry weather continues, the watering part will have to be brought into requisiticu. The 24th celebration committee are re- quested to meet at the Central Hotel, this evening, for the transaction of further busi- ness in connection with the Queen's Birth- day. N. DYER HuTmoN, secy. JAMES WEEKES, chairman. Auction sale of Bankrupt Goods. Mr. John Gill will offer for sale in Mr. J. W.

Positively no reserve. Jom GILL. It is asserted by persons who have ob- served the weather signs for many years that the present year will be a good one for large yields of all kinds of fruit. They base their faith in this from the fact that the snow and ice this year has clung tenaciously to the bark of the trees. Whenever this is the case, it has always been noticed the ensuing season is marked by large fruit yields. Messrs. Rowe & Andrews, the enterpris ing proprietors of the south end furniture and undertaking establishment, have re- cently refitted their premises. The front has been repainted, and is nicely adorned with several new signs of city design, and, to make the premises more attractive and inviting, they have added to their large stock several consignments of furniture, of the latest pattern. It will be worth your while to visit their store. We are informed by G. W. Holman, Pre- sident of the West Huron Teachers' Asso- ciation that the teachers of said association will celebrate the jubilee of Her Majesty by a grand demonstration at Exeter the middle of June. Should this be carried out we feel confident it would awaken an enthusiasm among the teachers and also excite an in- terest in educational matters by the general public. Let the teachers work hand-in- hand to accomplish the desired end.
